Chapter 39: Heroes Have No Money
The female mage Camilla walked in front of the monk, she could see that she was very aggrieved, and she reluctantly apologized under the laughter of the old thief Stone on the side, if it weren't for the monk's super hearing, I'm afraid I wouldn't have heard this sentence.
When Hui Gang rescued people before, he felt that this female mage dragged the whole team into danger for his own liking, which was very annoying, and seeing that this female mage's apology was also insincere, he couldn't help but feel a little contempt, just nodded slightly and strode over.
The female mage looked at the monk's cold back, and couldn't help but grimace behind her back. When Phil's horse suddenly passed by, Camilla's eyes lit up, and a smile bloomed, and then she followed, with an expression on her face as if she had seen a doll, and said to Phil happily:
"Little sister, what's your name, you're so cute"
At this time, Fei'er has recovered a lot of her former independent and strong appearance halfway through, and compared with Camilla, she looks older, but her cute and petite appearance can't be changed, so it's very weird for the two to be together.
The previous monk's attitude had fallen into the eyes of Xiao Fei'er, so the little girl's attitude was also very cold, but that Camilla didn't care and continued to entangle, it seems that if both sides were not on horseback, I'm afraid she would have hugged Fei'er a long time ago.
Henry and the monk striding forward in front explained:
"Camila just can't see cute things, in fact, she is a child who hasn't grown up, what is offensive, and I hope Master Huigang will bear with me. ”
Later, Camilla took out a lot of exquisite jewelry and playthings in her pocket, Phil was a girl after all, and she was soon attracted by these dazzling jewelry, and even the elf Jiani on the side joined in, and slowly the three girls chattered together.
The warrior Morton and the old thief with the wooden stick automatically slowed down and stood beside the three girls, and the monk strode forward regardless of the increasingly lively small procession behind him, no matter how much Henry chattered beside him.
When the Red Moon rose, the group had already arrived at the Red Moon Fort, a city on the border with the Principality of Lan and Dan, and this was one of the countless places in the world named after the Red Moon.
Standing on the edge of the Red Moon Castle, the monk was a little surprised, because this place was very prosperous, according to the monk's experience in Gravel Town, after the sun set, there was generally no one in the town except for the tavern that was still open. But this Red Moon Fort is about the same size as Gravel Town.
The moon had been rising for nearly an hour, but the streets were noisy and brightly lit, and people of all kinds of costumes were walking around, among which dwarves, elves and other things could be seen everywhere, and occasionally you could see the rare race of tall and strong minotaurs, warriors in heavy armor, mages in robes, archers in strong suits, and thieves wrapped in dark clothes.
The elf Jiani had already caught up and whispered in Hui Gang's ear:
"Don't be timid, this is a place where mercenaries and adventurers gather, so it's very lively, and the guards here won't check people at will, but it's still a bit of trouble if you find out that you're from Odan. ”
The monk nodded, Henry was very enthusiastic to introduce a hotel to the monk, originally according to Huigang's idea, if Fei'er is the princess that the elf said, the populated and prosperous place that suddenly appeared will attract some people to watch, after all, they have been hunted and killed after coming out of the town, but Fei'er's body is now very weak, although the elf Jiani didn't say anything, but it also looked very weak, so she had to find a hotel to rest under the guidance of Henry.
Henry led them to an inn called the Elven Forest, which was four stories tall and richly decorated, but the only thing that surprised the monk once they entered was the price of the inn
The boss behind the counter quoted the price with a smile on his face:
"A room costs 15 silver coins a night"
The monk who had hardly had any anger along the way was a little angry at this time, you must know that in Gravel Town, the income of a relatively solid farmer is only ten silver coins a year, and even in the memory of Huigang before he possessed this body, as a noble child, Fleet's income is only thirty gold coins per Chinese New Year's Eve, which is three hundred silver coins, this is still because he came from a relatively wealthy family, and many noble children do not have this money.
As for the church in Gravel Town, before the monk went, Father Philip had no savings at all, and after the monk presided over the church, he did a lot of free medical treatment, and the donations he received were basically food.
Now the monk only has 50 silver coins in his hand, which is still made up by the mayor of the town and those few people, but it will cost more than half here, when he walked the rivers and lakes in the past, the Shaolin Temple family has a big business, and naturally there will be no shortage of entanglements, and Huigang almost never thinks about the problem of money.
Henry and his party next to him had already gone upstairs to rest, and the boss standing behind the counter was well-informed, and had obviously guessed what the guest opposite was thinking, and said to the monk with a very sincere smile:
"Honorable guest, now that all the inns and dwellings in the town are full, adventurers from far and wide are still rushing here for that thing, and I can assure you that this price would not have been given to you had it not for the sake of Mr. Henry's face. ”
Huigang was speechless, he looked at the female elf Jiani on the side, the female elf smiled bitterly and shook her head, the monk saw that Fei'er on the side was already drowsy, sighed, took out all the money and paid the deposit, and asked for two rooms, to say that the monk put Fei'er and the elf together in the afternoon, and Jiani hadn't noticed it yet, then letting her have a room with the little girl at night was a complete trust for her
The female elf glanced at the monk with a complicated expression, and her face seemed to be moved and hesitant, but these were just flashes on her face, as if she had something to say, but in the end she didn't say anything, and silently walked into the room with the little girl.
However, Jiani didn't expect that the monk didn't think about it so much, and at this time, Huigang's mind was full of important things - that is, money
For the first time, I will digress the topic: I like a sentence in a certain book, the protagonist asks the super mage who works in an Internet café, why are you still making money here, and the super mage asks rhetorically: Why not, do you have super ability, do you go to rob a bank??
