Chapter 34: Third Avenue
This shop, Jiang Xia didn't know how to describe it, it could only be summed up by a bar, there was almost no significant sign on the door, just drew the shape of a wine glass, oh, yes, it can't be described by a painting, it is a colorful pattern floating in the middle of the store.
Walking in, Jiang Xia saw that someone was carefully wiping the wine glass, just like an archer wiping his own bow, there were all kinds of glossy wine glasses and unopened wine bottles on his body, and the whole bar didn't know where to float a faint lyrical music, as if the notes were flowing in the air.
Jiang Xia could feel that something on his body was also beating with the melody, and the activity of his cells was also mobilized, the entire store was filled with magic patterns that were thicker than the outside world, and faint patterns of law could be seen flickering on the ceiling and walls, and the bartender had already noticed it when the archer stepped into the door, and waved his hand, which was regarded as a greeting, still with his head down, wiping his wine glass, and the archer squinting slightly, and stepped forward.
There are not many customers in the store, everyone is taking a sip of the wine in front of them, the shape of the glass is very simple, the texture is like ordinary glass, the wine inside is of different colors, mostly purple and gold, some customers are very leisurely leaning on the back of the chair, gently knocking on the table with the melody, it should be regarded as a casual bar.
"He's not suitable for me here," the voice was not loud, but Jiang Xia could just hear it, and the bartender's handsome face did not show any expression, and he had two more glasses of wine in his hand, and gently placed them in front of the bar, "I have more enemies than you, and you know it." ”
The archer nodded, sighed softly, although the person in front of him did not exude a powerful and dazzling momentum in addition to his handsome face in the night light, but he was indeed the mortal enemy of countless people, this seemingly quiet bar in the middle of the city, I don't know how many bartender opponents' souls were sealed into the wine bottle behind him, and it was brewed into a good pot of wine.
"But Lao Yu on the corner should be able to help you, his shop has no quarrel with the world, and he just lacks an apprentice." The archer tilted his head and drank the purple liquid from the wine glass, "How many years, you still won't drink my wine." ”
The bartender smiled a little and handed Jiang Xia another glass of pale cyan wine, Jiang Xia took it with both hands, naturally not like the archers drank it all at once, and also learned to sip it slowly.
The armor on Jiang Xia's body suddenly glowed with its original luster, and the light and dark wings behind it also reappeared, and the incomplete so-called spatial laws in each armor piece were slowly reorganized, Jiang Xia could feel that the whole body had become extremely comfortable, and every inch was like being flowed by a gurgling spring water, which was almost needless to say, Jiang Xia's strength began to condense because of this glass of wine, and touched a new threshold.
"It's a gift for you." The bartender continued to wipe the wine glass, and Jiang Xia said loudly, "Thank you," Jiang Xia was very grateful to this bartender who had a lot of stories when he first met, although most of them were archers, but Jiang Xia had always been willing to help him, and Jiang Xia would silently remember it in his heart.
There was a glint in the archer's eyes, but then he beckoned Jiang Xia and walked out of the light bar towards another shop on the corner of the street.
The street that the archer came to with Jiang Xia was almost quite quiet, although there were pedestrians coming and going, but they would not talk to each other, and they also walked quietly through this street, Jiang Xia liked this atmosphere, the rhythm of this time was indeed too fast for Jiang Xia's whole slightly lazy people, Jiang Xia needed to slow down.
The bartender on the corner of the street said Lao Yu's storefront is a cigarette shop, selling all kinds of cigarettes, of course, Jiang Xia doesn't know any of the brands at all, a middle-aged man, with a harmless smile of humans and animals, holding a pack of ordinary cigarettes in his hand, the guest in front of him took out about 10 droplet-like currency, and after taking the cigarette in his hand, he couldn't wait to open it, and a fire crossed his hand, and the lit cigarette did not emit nicotine, or the bad smell of other Jiangxia world smoke, Rather, it is a faint, granular floating small area of mist, with a different fragrance of an unknown wildflower, which directly envelops the customer's head.
The customer's face was full of intoxication, as if he was in a sweet dream, he inhaled the mist while walking, and left, only then did Lao Yu turn around, bow slightly to the archer, and move a stool from the counter.
"From another world?" Lao Yu took out a cigarette and was about to hand one to Jiang Xia, when he thought of something, he took it back, "Haha, you haven't crossed the threshold of the pseudo-god yet, this cigarette still can't be smoked." ”
"Smoking, is there still a class?" Jiang Xia was a little curious, and Lao Yu explained with a smile, "Actually, what I sell is the medicinal mist that constantly melts the godhead, but the process is more pleasant, so the price is relatively high." ”
Jiang Xia naturally didn't understand it, and the archer shrugged his shoulders slightly at Lao Yu, "I heard, that guy Swain, he pushes me whenever something happens, and he's used to it." ”
"But a little guy who doesn't even have a basic godhead god pattern dares to save people from Mu Yue's men, it's really good." Lao Yu smiled at Jiang Xia, with a bit of sincerity.
"I just think that she shouldn't die, and it's a little uncomfortable to see that arrogant woman." Jiang Xia was very honest, and Lao Yu's smile was a little more sincere.
"Okay, you stay, I just don't have a lot of manpower here, including food and housing, but the salary is not high." Jiang Xia waved his hand, "It's good to have a place to eat and live, but boss, can you..."
"You said to help you improve your combat power, condense your godhead or something? These are not things, your current strength is almost equivalent to that of a five- or six-year-old child in this world, and naturally it is impossible for you to keep this state all the time. Lao Yu said quite easily, took out a cigarette in one hand, and picked it up in his mouth.
The archer's eyes suddenly showed a hint of sympathy, "It's better not to practice too hard, it's almost fine." Lao Yu suddenly restrained his smile, and the look in his eyes was as if he had seen a cute little girl.
Although Jiang Xia was confused, he still had a chill, and Lao Yu said lightly, "In the future, the door will be opened at 9 o'clock every day, rest at 12 noon, continue at 2 o'clock, and end at 5 o'clock in the evening, and then we will work from 7 o'clock to 9 o'clock every night, which is the time for me to exercise you, is there a problem?" Jiang Xia nodded, and Lao Yu was a little proud.
The archer shook his head and said coldly, "It's time for me to go, this bastard Muyue should be impatient to wait." Lao Yu's expression became a little serious, "Don't fight hard, Mu Yue is not terrible, Mu Yue is behind it, but he is a person who has one foot and really stepped into the god level." ”
The archer didn't say anything, a few black gases surged, and the figure disappeared on the corner of the street, Lao Yu sighed and sat on a stool, "This girl, how many years have passed, and it's still so worry-free." ”
"Come on, boy, I'm not going to train you today, the innermost room is yours, you go clean up first, change your clothes, and I'll tell you something."
Jiang Xia suddenly had a feeling when he moved to a rental house for the first time after graduation, although this world is still a little out of place with him so far, and he is only the lowest level of strength in this continent, but at least, there is a good start, Jiang Xia found his room according to Lao Yu's instructions.
A bed, some large cigarette shells piled on the side, an ordinary table, the room is not big, but Jiang Xia still happily cleaned up the clutter in the room, laid out the bedding, put away the armor on his body, and changed into Lao Yu's clothes, and then went out and sat next to Lao Yu.
"The owners of every shop on this street have some friendship with each other, and people who come to Lordaeron generally know that our Third Avenue is basically everyone who has the strength of almost the peak of demigod glory, so except for the Swain bar, there are very few people who make trouble." Seeing that Jiang Xia still didn't seem to understand, Lao Yu patiently added,
"In this continent, the lowest level of power is knights, and then there are the lords who have just condensed the godhead, the god level who has stepped into another world in the real sense, and then the pseudo-god level with a relatively strong godhead, and then we are the demigods with endless glory, the peak of the demigods is the strong man of the god level, and the strong man of the god level will almost not die without major turmoil, and the existence that can draw strength from time, and the gods will go up again, which is the main god, The powerhouse of the main god level, the power of the stars, the power of the wilderness, and even the powerful power of a plane, the top of the main god, is the legend that we have never touched, the true god, the so-called master of light and darkness, the existence of the law, of course, the existence of the gods is relatively small. Lao Yu explained to Jiang Xia with a touch of pride.
Jiang Xia almost understands the power system of this world, he is just a rookie who happens to have the strength of a knight, there is still a long way to grow in the future, the old man in front of him, the bartender, and all the shopkeepers on this street are all at the peak of the demigod level, and they are indeed strong enough, Jiang Xia secretly smacked his tongue, but Jiang Xia thought it was simple, as long as he was stronger than the pseudo-god, became a demigod, and found a way to go back, it would be almost the same, Lucifer would definitely be beaten into a dog by himself.
Then Lao Yu took Jiang Xia to the Third Avenue and greeted the shopkeepers of different stores, Jiang Xia followed behind Lao Yu, with respect and a smile on his face, these are all strong demigods.
There is an uncle who is covered in oil and sells meat, warmly greets Lao Yu, with a knife flower in his hand, properly cut off the meat of a creature that I don't know what kind of creature it is, and the unextinguished blue flame is still burning on his body, wrapped it in wide leaves and handed it to Lao Yu, and Lao Yu also threw a pack of cigarettes without hesitation.
There is a tall girl who walks out of a fairy tale world, delicate and beautiful like a porcelain doll, placing her own candy, Jiang Xia naturally will not simply think that these are ordinary candies, the candy is carrying different shapes, and there are bursts of laughter, yes, the candy is laughing, and laughing very happily, Jiang Xia can feel the activity and rich energy contained in it, the porcelain doll saw Lao Yu, and also took out a box of candy, but with a faint cry, Lao Yu took it with both hands, picked up one casually and threw it into his mouth, and the hair color instantly turned into lilac.
The hammer in his hand was also a tall man who was strong and full of muscles, several heads taller than Jiang Xia, the hammer of the craftsman in his hand, constantly waving, condensed in the air, was polished into the weapon, the weapon instantly bloomed with dazzling light, after hitting a weapon, he stopped and said a few words to Lao Yu, glanced at Jiang Xia, and continued to start beating the next weapon in his hand, Jiang Xia noticed that there were not only all kinds of cold weapons engraved with magic patterns in the blacksmith shop, but also armor that looked quite hideous, and some very feminine-looking guns.
The hotel is a middle-aged woman who is a, with a look of having a leg with Lao Yu, Lao Yu has not yet entered, the proprietress greeted her, Jiang Xia couldn't hold back her smile a little, Lao Yu's face was also a little unbearable, the proprietress enthusiastically asked Lao Yu to sit down and eat casually, Lao Yu ran out as if he had escaped, and the proprietress smiled narrowly.
The storefront where Jiang Xia and Lao Yu greeted each other one night was basically plain in life, like a small shop on the old street in his hometown, full of human touch and comfortable taste, Jiang Xia looked at the moon that happened to be on the treetops, and sat quietly on the bench at the door of the cigarette shop with Lao Yu, his thoughts flying.
