Chapter 351 Trading
When I met Vanessa, she was smiling and talking to a few little girls by the stove of the fire, with a gentle smile on her face, and she seemed very kind.
However, behind that gentle smile, Li Yunfei could see that cold heartβthe other party's gaze was too cold.
Even at such a happy birthday party, her gaze seemed to be frozen by ice, lacking the vitality and vitality that a girl of this age should have.
When she saw Li Yunfei, Vanessa nodded lightly, which was regarded as a greeting, but she obviously didn't have much interest in this new stranger.
Li Yunfei just glanced at the other party one more time, and he didn't care about this girl either.
Although the refreshing and capable temperament on the other party is a little eye-catching, Li Yunfei has long passed the age when he wants to go up and talk to a beautiful girl when he sees her, and he just smiles and talks with Aisha next to him.
The scale of the birthday party is not large, it can even be said to be very small, except for the only few family members and those children, only Li Yunfei and Vanessa are considered guests.
Of course, the birthday party of an ordinary civilian child cannot be grand and gorgeous. This so-called banquet is not so much a banquet as an excuse for a few children and young girls to have a good time celebrating.
There weren't even any adults at the banquet, and Aisha's parents weren't there, but were busy with their own business, not even at home.
Therefore, it can be said that Li Yunfei is the only male adult in this ordinary house at this time - I don't know what Aisha thinks, and he actually invites a strange man to his home so generously. Could it be that she really trusts Li Yunfei so much, who has only met once?
Of course, Li Yunfei had no way of knowing Aisha's specific thoughts, he just dealt with some of the girl's problems casually. At the same time, she is trying to know more about the world from her mouth.
After all, although he already has a certain understanding of Azeroth, many things are difficult to understand without being there.
At least with the 3D game in that two-dimensional world on Earth, his knowledge of Azeroth is only superficial, and if he really takes the information he gets from the game as the truth, he will definitely die a miserable death.
To take the simplest example, the town of Shining Gold in the game has only a few lonely cabins, and it doesn't even look like a village.
And yet here. This bustling town outside the main city of the alliance is vast. When you stand on the top and look out, the houses of Shining Gold Town stretch to the end of the hill. It shows a kind of prosperity like a small city.
The stark contrast between the two made Li Yunfei eager to know more about Azeroth and prepare for his future actions.
However, the information he received from Aisha's mouth made him feel much more at ease, at least although the world was very different from the world he knew, it was not much different from the world-class events. The information he knew was still valuable.
Such a discovery made him breathe a sigh of relief. It's a lot easier.
If you use the timeline in the game, this is the time when Wrath of the Lich King version has just begun, the Lich King has just awakened, the Alliance and the Horde are raising troops to go to Northrend to fight the Lich King, the fission of the earth has not yet happened, and Deathwing is still hiding in a corner of the world with his plan to destroy the world.
It's the time when the version was first opened, and everything is still calm.
Illidan of the Outlands has just been knighted, and the new evil enemy, the Lich King, has yet to fully reveal his fangs. The more powerful enemy, Deathwing, also lurks in the corners with plots, albeit with undercurrents in the shadows. But at least on the surface, it's calm.
At least here near Stormwind, everything is still calm and people are living peacefully.
Feeling such peace, Li Yunfei felt more and more that the girl named Vanessa was out of place.
On the other party's body, there is something as sharp and cold as a sword, which stabs people's backs. Like a sword accustomed to blood and death, it stands out in this peaceful environment.
Li Yunfei tried to find Vanessa's location among the information he knew, but found nothing.
From Aisha's mouth, Li Yunfei knew that Vanessa was from the Western Wilderness, a civilian girl, and this time she came to visit relatives in Stormwind City, and stopped by to see her when she passed by Shining Gold Town.
However, Li Yunfei knew that this was unlikely, at least ordinary civilian girls did not have that kind of temperament.
It's just that among the information he knows, Vanessa's place can't be found.
All he knew was that the leader of the Brotherhood forces in the Wild West was Edwin. Van Cleef, however, died in the assassination of the adventurer a few years ago, and the Brotherhood, while still active in the Wild West, is in a state of disarray.
Li Yunfei guessed that Vanessa should be a member of the Brotherhood, and might even have a high status in the Brotherhood, otherwise it would be impossible to have such a cold and capable temperament.
But it was all just his guess, and he didn't show it, still smiling and talking to Aisha, as if he didn't realize Vanessa's extraordinary.
He thought that this invitation to the party was just Aisha's own initiative, and Vanessa had no interest in him as a stranger, but as night fell, when Vanessa sent Li Yunfei out of the door, she suddenly said something surprising.
"Li Yunfei, I know you."
Under the cold moonlight, under the starry sky, the girl stood in front of the wooden door, and said to him at the bottom of the stairs, "When the dragon comes, I will be not far behind you. β
Vanessa's eyes were calm, as if she was just stating an ordinary fact, and had no other meaning.
However, Li Yunfei understood what the other party meant-I know you are a dragon slayer.
Out of some consideration, Li Yunfei did not tell Aisha that he was a dragon slayer, and wanted to hide it. But now it seems that his so-called concealment was in vain in the first place.
So facing the cold gaze of the girl on the stairs, Li Yunfei laughed.
"Then you mean to come to tonight's party?"
Vanessa nodded and generously acknowledged, "But I didn't tell Sasa what was going on, they didn't know that you were a dragon slayer." β
Li Yunfei shrugged his shoulders and was noncommittal, "Then can you tell me what you want to do?" Miss Vanessa, you must have something to say about coming to me tonight? β
Vanessa nodded and said, "I heard you're looking for someone. β
"Ah, yes, looking for a friend of mine."
This is not a secret, so Li Yunfei naturally told the other party, "A friend who is separated from me is very important to me. β
Vanessa asked again, "I heard that you offered a high reward for finding this friend?" Claiming that if you find her, you can get 2,000 gold coins from you? β
This is not a secret, so Li Yunfei generously admitted it.
"Yes, that's all I can afford to pay so far."
"The bounty comes from your reward for killing Hogg the Gnoll?"
Li Yunfei laughed, "Yes, although the money hasn't reached me yet, I believe that the dignified Storm Kingdom will not break its promise." β
Vanessa nodded, in understanding.
And this time, Li Yunfei asked, "Then you came to me to ask these questions that everyone knows?" Do you want that bonus? β
The girl shook her head, and suddenly laughed softly, not the kind of hypocritical mask-like smile in front of people, but a smile from the heart, closer to her character.
She looked at Li Yunfei and smiled playfully, "I want something more expensive." β
"For example?"
"Like you."
In Li Yunfei's widening eyes, Vanessa said, "I need a strong enough master to help me do something." β
Li Yunfei laughed, "Scared me, I thought I was finally running at the right time, and there would be beautiful girls on the road...... Tsk, help you with things, right? β
Looking at the girl in front of him, Li Yunfei smiled sincerely, "As long as you can help me find Sejuani's whereabouts, I can consider helping you." (To be continued......)
