Chapter 2 A New Beginning
White Court Province.
A desolate place closest to the northern edge of the Lingyue Kingdom.
In August, there was no rain for a long time in Baiting Province, and most of the time it was a scorching sun, baking the whole land.
White Stain.
One of the four Davidic cities in the provincial capital of Baiting Province.
Although it is not as prosperous as the entire province, its prosperity is far from being comparable to that of ordinary small cities.
The whole city was so huge that it was almost impossible to see the end from the high mountains in the distance.
The sun was in the sky, and the scorching air was almost so scorching that people didn't dare to go out.
On the avenue south of Whitemark City, a black-haired boy in ragged clothes with a rag wrapped around his head walked slowly down the street, creating a huge contrast to the flamboyantly dressed crowd around him.
Along the way, passers-by immediately avoided it, lest they would be contaminated with the stench of that body.
Enduring the strange gazes cast around him, Luo Tian lowered his head and walked quickly.
Although I have tried my best to choose a place with few people, I have still suffered two beatings and countless white eyes and abuse along the way.
The bustling avenues in White Marks were not something for a poor man like him to enter.
It's lucky that I didn't meet the city guards along the way.
After burying his head in the dividing line of the slums, Luo Tiancai breathed a sigh of relief.
With the memories of the original owner of this body, he once inadvertently offended the boss of the area he was in in the slums.
When Luo Tian crossed over, he was beaten by the thugs under the boss of the Southern District.
If there is any movement over there, it is very likely that he will be targeted, so Luo Tian will take the risk of blending into the North District.
Simply, there was no danger, he successfully crossed the commercial street and was not caught by the city guards.
Smelling the strange and familiar smell of mud, Luo Tianxun instinctively touched into the chaotic deep alley.
More than twenty minutes later, Luo Tian was standing in front of a grocery store.
According to his multi-faceted inquiry, this is already the most reputable shop around.
Pushing open the hidden door, Luo Tian strode into the store.
At the counter, the boss was waxing a short sword.
Coming to the counter, Luo Tian said directly to the boss who was sitting inside and waxing the short sword: "Boss, I want to sell a weapon." ”
The boss raised his head, glanced at Luo Tian, put down the short sword that was waxing in his hand, and said with more interest: "Take it first." ”
When Luo Tian heard this, he took out the brick that had only been strengthened twice.
When the boss saw the bricks Luo Tian took out, his face suddenly darkened.
"Go, go, go to another house, I don't collect rags here. ”
Picked up the short sword and continued to wax, the boss didn't pay attention to Luo Tian.
"Please take a closer look, this is definitely a weapon!" Luo Tian said sincerely to the boss.
This is a major event related to whether he will be starved to death today, and he cannot tolerate his endless pleading.
It's a bit ridiculous to take a brick that can be found everywhere and say it's a weapon.
Luo Tian also regretted his impulse at that time, in fact, he still had a half-truncated dagger on his body, which his predecessor bought at a great price for self-defense, and he couldn't remember it at the time, otherwise it would be better to hold a broken dagger than to come to the door with a brick now.
It's a pity that he doesn't have enough soul power to strengthen the Broken Dagger now.
If you buy the broken dagger like this, it will only be two or three copper plates at most.
The grocery store owner was still carefully waxing the short sword, and he didn't pay any attention to Bai Cangdong.
Luo Tian put the bricks on the counter, looked at the grocery store owner silently, and didn't say anything more.
If he annoys the grocery store owner, then he has to go to those black stores with a bad reputation.
In that kind of black shop, even if you buy the bricks, I'm afraid you may get into trouble.
He doesn't have much to resist right now.
The grocery store owner waxed the dagger and turned around to place the dagger on the shelf.
After putting away the dagger, the grocery store owner turned around and glanced at Luo Tian, and then picked up the bricks on the counter.
Holding it in his hand, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and the grocery store owner asked Luo Tian, "What is the origin of your brick?"
"This brick of mine was obtained by accident, the texture is very hard, and the dagger can only leave a deep scratch when it is slashed with all its might, and it is very suitable as a weapon to attack people behind their backs. Luo Tian replied respectfully.
After listening to Luo Tian's answer, the grocery store owner frowned, turned the bricks over and over again, and looked around several times, and weighed them from time to time.
"Don't you mind if I give it a try?" asked the grocery store owner after half a ring.
"No problem, you just give it a try. ”
Luo Tian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said to the grocery store owner boldly.
After getting Luo Tian's permission, the grocery store owner turned around and took off the short sword that had just been waxed.
With a sword in one hand and a brick in the other, the short sword in the grocery store owner's right hand slashed hard at the brick in his left hand.
The dagger slashed across the brick and brought a little spark, and a scratch of less than two millimeters appeared on the brick.
Putting away the short sword, the grocery store owner took a closer look at the bricks, looked up and said to Luo Tian: "Although this kind of thing is very confusing, it is still a bit out of the way after all, how about I bid a silver coin for your brick?"
"No problem, thank you, old gentleman, for being willing to accept this brick. "A salute to the grocery store owner, Luo Tian said respectfully.
In the past, Luo Tian's monthly salary was only one silver coin, and there was nothing to be dissatisfied with, and it was already earned if it could be sold.
———— ordinary bricks, one copper coin can buy eight pieces.
Carefully putting the scattered hundred copper coins into his pocket, Luo Tian left the grocery store full of joy.
After leaving the grocery store, Luo Tian did not return to the southern district, but went to another grocery store, although the reputation is not too good, but a dagger such a small business will not have any leisure to pay attention to.
Equipment Grade: Tier 0
Equipment quality: inferior
Enhancement conditions: 1 soul source point/1 soul point cost fifty copper coins, Luo Tian bought a tattered dagger, there were even two notches on it and some dry blood that had not been cleaned up, and I don't know what it was on.
After putting the dagger close to his body, Luo Tian pretended to turn around in the alley a few times before coming to a hotel.
In fact, it is better to say that it is a hotel than a turret.
There are not many travelers and merchants willing to come to a hell of a place like the slums.
Most of the people who come here are crazy men and women who are hungry and thirsty, but there are people in the family.
The inn is a small two-storey building, which is a rarity in the slums.
On the first floor of the inn was the tavern, but there were not many people now, and it was only in the evening that a few people gathered together.
On the second floor are the apartments, most of which are divided by wooden planks, just enough to fit a single bed, and the space is extremely small.
The sound insulation of the planks is not very good, but some people like the tone.
Five copper coins a day, a bit expensive compared to the slums struggling to make ends meet, but Luo Tian still lived here.
He doesn't plan to go back to the South Side now, the civilian area is his goal!
It only costs three or four gold coins to buy a cheaper house in a civilian area, and it won't be long before he earns it.
Silently closing the door, Luo Tian took out two scallion pancakes without green onions and oil.
He bought it on the road, a copper coin.
He couldn't stand the smell of sour fruits!
Although it was only noon, Luo Tian slept with his clothes after eating the scallion pancakes.
The recovery of soul power during sleep will be a little faster than usual.
