Chapter 2: The Strange Guest of the Tavern

"It looks like a normal world. The panda looked around, "Ordinary mountains, ordinary water, ordinary farmland, and inhabitants...... I don't see anything out of the ordinary. Why does Hoshizhao say that this world is most similar to the mad god world?

"I think she probably meant that the world was like a twenty-five-year-old female star, and the mad god world was just as much like that female star, but at the age of eighty-five. "And I don't think it's time to worry about these little things." We are here to find our brothers who have lost in this world, who cares if this world is like the world of mad gods!"

"Fox girl, you're right?"

Standing beside them, Alfiein, who wrapped himself in a heavy robe as if he was afraid of light, sighed and replied: "If you have a conflict, you can go to the side and fight to the death, just remember not to spill blood on me, I am now allergic to blood." ”

This made Loma roll his eyes, and couldn't help complaining: "What kind of shield is the spear, the sky has made you talk to death......"

As he spoke, his expression became serious: "Panda, you are the leader of this operation, where are you going to start?"

The panda pointed to the sunset town not far away: "Let's start by going to that town to gather information." ”

Unbeknownst to them, just as the panda was reaching out, Helen Leanne pushed open the tavern door again.

"Sissy, you look so much better today than you did yesterday!" Arbuckle laughed at him, "You certainly didn't touch a woman last night." That's right, young people are a little bit modest, it's good for the body!"

Helen shook her head: "Actually, the doctor came to my house last night to check on me. ”

"Oh? That's because of the medicine? When did old Dr. Harris get so good at healing? Didn't he only use vegetable stew to heal people? What kind of medicine do you take so well? Tomato stewed pumpkin?"

"It's not that exaggerated, the doctor said I was just too tired. ”

Arbuckle was stunned for a moment: "I'll just say that you have made too many 'errands'! You still don't believe it! Look, even the doctor says that you are too tired! Young man, listen to my eldest brother's advice, you must be temperate, and the water can flow for a long time." Indulgence is fatal......"

Helen ignored his nonsense, walked straight to the bar, and said to the bartender Alex, "Bring me something to eat, and a glass of wine, just yesterday, it's good." ”

Alex quickly brought the wine and bread, and added a plate of stewed vegetables: "A large piece of toasted bread, a plate of stewed vegetables, two glasses of sparkling fruit wine, a table, a total of six silver coins and three copper coins." ”

Helen paused: "So expensive?!"

"Five silver coins for the table, six copper coins for each cup of sparkling fruit wine, and one copper coin for toasted bread and stewed vegetables—if you can pay it off as soon as possible, I can give you a free order for bread and vegetables." ”

“...... That table can't be all on my head, I'll lose half of it at most!"

"If you can beat Arbuckle, you won't give a single copper, and there's no problem. Alex said lightly.

Helen suddenly wilted, he couldn't win against Arbuckle even when he was in good physical condition, not to mention that he was not in good physical condition now, although it wasn't as bad as yesterday, but he definitely didn't have the ability to fight with people. So I had to say with a bitter face: "I didn't have so much money with me." ”

"I know you didn't bring it, just keep it on your account. Alex said unhurriedly, "Or you buy a table and pay us for it, and the five silver coins will be counted." ”

Helen looked at the tables in the tavern, pondered for a moment, and thought that the suggestion seemed to be slightly better, and nodded, but did not seriously say yes.

...... He also plans to have a chance to settle the account for the five silver coins.

This time, Helen drank very slowly.

During the day today, he sat in the bazaar again, basking in the sun, watching people come and go, and couldn't help but feel sleepy, and then fell asleep.

But this night he slept quite peacefully, and although there was a lot of noise around him, it did not affect him at all, and he slept from morning to evening, and did not wake up from hunger until about ten minutes ago.

He didn't dare to go home, so he simply came to the tavern to eat. But I didn't expect that yesterday's rack was worth five silver coins, which was really a bit scary.

The Li'an family is not without money, but it is not very wealthy, but it is usually middle-class. The family's main source of income is land in the countryside and dividends from the shares in the trading house. Combined, the two have an annual income of about three hundred gold coins. But the income is large, and the expenses are not small. Over the course of a year, the real disposable income is probably less than two hundred gold coins.

Of the less than two hundred gold coins, he can personally control one-tenth, and considering some unavoidable expenses, the real amount of gold that he can use casually is about one gold coin per month. Five silver coins was almost half a month's expense for him, how could he not be surprised? How could he not feel distressed?

is like a wife who only has 300 yuan in pocket money a month, and he is absolutely reluctant to ask him to pay 150 yuan to buy something he doesn't need.

However, Helen is now facing greater trouble, and money is not a very urgent problem for him for the time being. So he was only distressed for a short time, and then he put aside this sad little thing and concentrated on eating and drinking.

In any case, eat and drink enough first.

As a gentleman with status, Helen is usually very particular about manners. Today he finally had a good night's sleep, his spirit was much better, and after eating some bread and stew, he felt that his body had regained some strength and his mood was much better.

So, he had time to grab a glass and chat with the other drinkers in the tavern.

This is the time when the tavern is full of customers. Many people who have some status but are not high enough will come to the tavern to spend a little money and spend a pleasant evening. Helen soon had a good conversation with her acquaintance, laughing.

Just then, the tavern door was pushed open, and three more people walked in.

Of the three, the first was a large man in a simple cuirass and a standard sword, even taller than the barbarian Arbuckle, followed by a short, blonde man in full armor and carrying a shield and axe, reaching up to the man's waist at most, and finally a man in a heavy robe, who seemed not afraid of the heat at all.

"Whatever you want to eat and drink, for five. The big man swept his eyes, found an empty table, and sat down with his companions. The dwarf seemed to think that the stool was not high enough, muttered a few words, put his shield under the stool, raised it considerably, and then nodded in satisfaction, and sat down.

Seeing this scene, some people couldn't help but laugh.

The dwarf was suddenly upset, he jumped off the stool, and looked viciously at the drinker who made a mocking sound: "Didn't your mother teach you manners?

His opening was a provocation, and it was clear that there would be a brawl to follow.

But not really, because just as the drinker rushed at him angrily, the big man stood up.

With just one hand, he lifted a rather stout man up, dangled it back and forth in the air, and then floated lightly on the ground: "I guess you're here to eat and drink, not to find someone to fight, right?"

The drinker naturally understood how big the difference in strength between them was, so he nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice, and ran away quickly.

There was a burst of laughter in the tavern - it was fun for the drinkers to hit whomever they wanted. All in all, anything is good as long as it can make them have fun.

In the midst of a laugh, Helen excitedly ordered another bottle of wine—this time a spirit.

So it didn't take long for him to lie on the table and fall asleep.
