Chapter 4: Old Bill
Since Su Hao got the hint, he began to live a life of hard work, and as Zhuo Ke advised, every morning, afternoon and evening, in addition to eating and sleeping, are spent in high-intensity physical training, although life is boring, but under the stimulation of the growing numbers behind the physical fitness, Su Hao is still painful and happy, and resolutely survived.
As for Xiaobai, she is also very hard-working, she can insist on meditation for 13 hours every day, although she is still a child, but after all, she has experienced the end of the world, and has also witnessed the death of her loved ones, so she has become extraordinarily strong, sitting cross-legged every day, and there is no complaint about doing these boring meditations.
Soon 6 days passed, and Su Hao found that the physical fitness enhancement brought by this high-intensity training was incremental, that is, 15 points were added on the first day, 20 points on the second day, and even more on the third day, up to 30 points. But then Su Hao found that when his physical fitness reached 230, when he carried out this kind of physical fitness exercise, the effect would become very poor, the fourth day was only 15 o'clock, the fifth day was 10 o'clock, and the sixth point was 5 o'clock.
Su Hao understands that this should be that his physical fitness enhancement has reached the limit, although each person's seven major castes can be improved through training methods, it can be regarded as a kind of development of their own potential, and there is a limit to improvement, until it is close to the limit of his body, the improvement speed will tend to slow down or even stop, even if it is because of this copy world, the use of special training methods can make the speed of exploring potential much faster, but there is no way to increase your inner potential, That's why Su Hao's physical fitness grows slowly, and that's because Su Hao's own potential has begun to approach the limit.
But to Su Hao's surprise, Xiaobai through meditation, has a fixed increase of 13 points of perception every day, without a trace of increment, but it is not discounted at all. Later, Su Hao and Xiaobai showed each other their talents, but found that Xiaobai's two mage-type talents, one is magical affinity, and the other is fire control, which is really terrifying, at this time, after thinking about it, it is clear that even if you meditate for 6 days, Xiaobai's potential in perception is far from reaching the limit, not even the tip of the iceberg, combined with talent, it can be seen that Xiaobai is indeed a genius magician, and his identity as the chosen one is well deserved.
Although Su Hao said that he had been concentrating on training, he was not just buried in it. There are about 200 households in Sol Town, and the area is not large, Su Hao has to go around as soon as he is free, and he is almost familiar with the entire Sol Town, and on the 7th day, Su Hao does not plan to continue physical training, because the improvement has reached the limit, and there is no point in continuing it, it is better to go around the town and see if there is anything to gain.
Although the town of Sol is not big, although the sparrows are small, there are not only blacksmith shops, but also potion shops, jewelry stores, and even a small magic artifact shop, Su Hao came to this potion shop.
The owner of the pharmacy store is a male elf with long pointed ears, judging from his beautiful violet skin, this is a pure blood Night Elf, but a wrinkled face reveals his age, and it looks definitely not less than 700 years old (the author doesn't know the life span of the Night Elf, and Baidu can't do it, just say it for a thousand years), as for why he stayed in this palm-sized place in Sol Town, he didn't say, no one would know.
Maybe it's because Zhuoer, a passionate young man full of dreams who is too famous in Sol Town, or maybe the two have known each other for a long time, this old night elf smiled and said hello after seeing Su Hao, accompanied by a familiar smile, and the wrinkles on his face also bloomed like a chrysanthemum. I only heard him say, "Little Drow, what are you doing here?" ”
Su Hao smiled slightly, looked at the various potion bottles in front of him, picked up a bottle of green potion casually, looked at the price of 200 gold coins on it, shook his head with a little regret, and said: "Old Bill, isn't this bottle of rejuvenation potion a bit expensive, I see that although your color is quite normal, it lacks the strong natural flavor that the potion should have...... Are you diluted? And when it came to the word dilution, Su Hao deliberately lowered his voice.
Su Hao is actually not familiar with the process of magic potion concoction, and the reason why he said such a seemingly unfathomable and reasonable sentence is based on memory, knowing that although Bill is a noble purebred night elf, he is quite old, full of weather, and looks like a respected elder, but in fact he is an extremely obscene guy, an authentic Grande Iron Rooster and the like. The raw materials of synthetic potions are also cutting corners, those that can be used for ten years will never use a hundred years, one medicinal leaf can be used never two, and one medicinal herb can be broken into two plants, even some drug residues can be soaked and soaked again, and sold as the so-called "rejuvenation water".
At this time, Old Bill's face turned red, and he looked at the customers around him, and found that he was just picking up potion products and didn't hear the conversation here, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. At this time, he couldn't say anything, because Su Hao's voice was very low, and he used a more subtle and euphemistic word like "dilution", and he didn't expose him in public, which can be said to have given him face......
Looking at Su Hao's smiling appearance, Old Bill was a chill in his heart, he didn't expect that the loyal and hot-blooded young man he was familiar with would actually show such an unfathomable playful smile, he used to think that he was loyal and honest, and he had exposed a lot of his foundation to him, and he didn't care, that was because the previous Zhuoer would not use this as a handle to blackmail him at all, but he didn't expect that today he would finally suffer the consequences, this thing actually came to pit him, this is really ...... It's a little painful.
"Hehe, old Bill, I've known you for as long as I can remember, for the sake of friends, I won't mention the previous things, but I'm very interested in your potions here, see if I can find a few bottles."
Of course, Old Bill knew that the "previous things" that Su Hao said were the things that he had done with water and cutting corners, but he had been in this Sol Town for so long, and it could be said that he had built up his reputation and fame, and occupied almost all of the pharmacy market in Sol Town, so it could be said that as long as he worked hard, he could make a lot of money. But once his own is exposed, not only will his business be much worse, but those former customers are more likely to be angry and come to seek justice, and it is likely that there will be a small danger in their net worth and life.
Old Bill was cautious and would never allow any possible danger to happen, so he smiled and said with a pleasant face: "Little Drow, what potion are you interested in, tell me, we can discuss it slowly." ”
Su Hao smiled slightly, seeing that Old Bill was so knowledgeable, he also changed his honorific title, and said: "I heard that Mr. Bill once treasured a very precious potion, which was a boosting potion synthesized with the well water of the moon well in the middle of the night, the new leaves of the ancient tree in early spring, and the blessing magic of the druids. ”
The corners of Bill's mouth twitched, he didn't expect this Su Hao to have such a big appetite, and he actually wanted his most precious collection, so he immediately shook his head decisively and replied:
"No, I didn't expect you kid to be so deceitful and ask for my most precious blessing potion, it's absolutely impossible."
Su Hao continued to know with affection and reason, but this night elf who had lived for 700 years just couldn't listen to it, just when he was about to meet Su Hao's language bombardment, Su Hao changed his words and said: "Since it can't work, then I want this." After speaking, he pointed to the most expensive "psychic water".
Su Hao also took advantage of a small psychological law, if he came up and asked for that psychic water, the probability of failure was undoubtedly more than ninety percent, if the lion opened his mouth first, first try his psychological bottom line, and then ask for a lower price, after experiencing such a psychological gap, the chance of success is naturally greater.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Bill hesitated for a moment, and then said, "This can be discussed, but you should take out your crystals first." ”
After getting the stinging snake insect crystal in his hand, I saw old Bill look at the crystal carefully, and then a green light appeared on the five fingers, and the ring wrapped the insect crystal, only to see the milky white light inside slowly fade, and it turned into emerald green, which lasted for a long time, and then he said: "Although the thing is good, and the blessing magic has been enhanced to a certain extent, but compared with this bottle of psychic potion, the value is still far from enough." ”
Su Hao frowned and said, "Old Bill, it's not good for you to be like this, this is a bit incompatible with your consistent reputation...... Tell me about your bottom line. When he said the word "reputation", Su Hao also sighed heavily.
Old Bill was a little helpless, and replied with some pain: "Add another 500 gold coins." ”
Su Hao saw that this old bill was a little bit oily and salty, and knew that at this time, he could only ask for a price like this, so he handed over a money bag and said, "Forget it, make a deal." ”
While taking the potion, Su Hao suddenly thought that the stinging snake insect crystal was not an item in this world at all, since he could know that its value was not as good as that bottle of psychic potion, he guessed that this guy was very likely to have an identification function, so he asked: "I have something here, I don't know if you can identify it for me." ”
Old Bill smiled: "This is okay, the appraisal fee is 100 gold coins." ”
Su Hao was helpless, looking at this old guy, he had a posture of not seeing a rabbit or an eagle, so he had to hand over the gold coin and a bottle of red liquid that was still boiling.
