Chapter 34: The Wolf and the Spice

Smelling the smell of blood in the air, Ballmer suddenly reacted and turned to flee.

Downton's wrist flicked, and the suitcase was thrown out with a 'whew'.

After a few steps, Ballmer was hit in the back, and he threw himself forward, lying on the ground, coughing uncomfortably.

"Ballmer, I'm going to kill you!" The yin owl man knew that Downton had a grudge against the clerk, so he said this to let him go.

Downton picked up his right foot and slammed it into the ruffian's face, knocking him unconscious, and then he walked towards Ballmer.

"Your Excellency, you don't work at the post office, what are you doing here?"

Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Ballmer climbed hard, but one person still stood in front of him.

"I lost the money bag, yes, I came out to look for the money bag. Ballmer made a terrible excuse, and his tone was already pleading, "If you're okay, I'm leaving." ”

Before the clerk could stand up, Downton kicked him in the shoulder, and the fat body fell back again.

"I haven't offended you since you took office, and Weishenme has to deliberately fix me?" Downton was puzzled, "Is it just for Liwei?"

Ballmer was speechless, he wanted to make the post office his own hall, Downton is a kind of person, he doesn't flatter, he doesn't stutter, it naturally makes him feel uncomfortable, it's strange if he doesn't clean you up.

"Forget it, even if you know the answer, it's useless. Downton walked over to Ballmer.

"What are you going to do?" Ballmer scrambled back a few times, and scrambled to his feet.

"Don't you like to be a postman, I'll let you know what it's like to be beaten!" Downton's right fist clenched tightly and roared, "Ballmer, clench your teeth!"

"Don't, help!"

The clerk's shout stopped dumbly, and Downton slammed a punch into his jaw.

Ballmer's beaten head was tilted back, dizzy, poof, two mouthfuls of blood, and his mouth full of gums loosened.

"If you hadn't fired Will and Duren, they wouldn't have risked their lives to go to Raven Ridge to make money. ”

Thinking of his two dead friends, Downton's chest was filled with rage and he kicked Ballmer.

"Ah, you dare to hit me, the sheriff is my friend, and you're going to die!" the clerk put his hands on his head, twisting it like a maggot.

Downton kicked harder, Ballmer's teeth were kicked down, he didn't forget the ruffian's words just now, he was going to break his legs, if he didn't become a magician, his life would be useless.

"Please stop fighting, not only Will and Duren, but the more than thirty postmen I fired can all come back and continue to work. Seeing that he couldn't threaten Downton, Ballmer immediately changed his tune,

The clerk is a fierce bastard, in the face of his postman, cruel like a tyrant, often beaten and scolded, but when he encounters even more ruthless people, he becomes a despicable goblin, begging for mercy without dignity.

Looking at the frenzied Downton, the ruffians were as quiet as cicadas, afraid of being targeted by him, they all regretted it at this time, provoking a magician, or a paladin, it was definitely a loss to his wife.

In order to prevent Ballmer from taking his anger out on the other postmen, Downton broke his leg, and he was out of work for several months.

"If you're not convinced, just come looking for trouble, I'll wait!" Downton picked up his suitcase and turned to leave.

"Don't dare anymore. Ballmer begged for mercy, but as soon as Downton left the alley, his eyes immediately became resentful, and he decided to go to the sheriff, and even if he spent a lot of money and owed favors, he had to find an excuse to hang him at the entrance of the town.

"What's the matter with the doorman?" said Downton got on his horse and went to the grocery store of Old Grande.

"I can't tell you in a short time, let's prepare supplies first, there is nothing else to get except that black-hearted pharmacy?" asked Homer.

"There's another one, but it's very depressed. Downton hesitated, but at the urging of the Grimographer, he decided to take a look.

The Wolf & Spice Grocery Store, for as long as Downton can remember, has been located at the northern junction of Morningfog Town, but it has been closed for most of the year, and sometimes even when it closes, it is two or three years, and the front of the steps is full of dust.

Downton was lucky, the grocery store was open, and he walked through the door and inside.

It looks inconspicuous, but the hall is surprisingly large, and there are not many items on the shelves, but there are many types, even potions and potions are sold.

A clear specimen bottle, filled with a white preservative, soaked in a heart the size of a pineapple.

Knock, knock, although slow and weak, but the heart is beating, as if it is still in the master's chest!

"It's a kind of wurm demon beast's heart, I don't know which potion master handled it, jishu is awesome, look at the color of the heart, it should be more than a hundred years to take it out, but it's still beating. ”

The Grimoire projected a green beam of light across the specimen bottle, and then showed the test results, chasing between the lines, revealing a thick praise.

"You're interested in the heart of the dragon rhino, you can buy it for only 10,000 gold coins!"

The grocery store, which was originally dimly lit, seemed to be suddenly full of color because of this ethereal voice.

Downton's spirits lifted, and there was an indescribable throbbing in his heart.

His gaze jumped over the shelves and landed on the slender figure behind the counter.

"Boy, if you want to buy it, you can decide quickly, tomorrow, we will be closed. ”

The figure was wrapped in a brown cloak, and the huge hood covered her face, which made Downton slightly lost, but listening to the voice, it should be a girl of fourteen or fifteen.

"I heard from the townspeople that the shopkeeper has a strange disease that can't see the sun, and she always wears a cloak, but it shouldn't be her, right?"

"Boy, it's rude to stare at a stranger like this. Although it was an accusation, there was no complaining in his tone.

"I'm sorry!" Downton hurriedly said, his cheeks flushed with shame, this kind of performance, it was really embarrassing.

"It's okay, you can choose whatever you want, if you're not sure what to buy, don't bother us. The figure yawned and leaned back on the recliner, "We are accumulating strength for tomorrow's journey." ”

Downton nodded awkwardly, although he didn't see her appearance, but he liked the other party's voice very much.

When the wolf talks to the owner of the spice grocery store, the accent is slightly raised, and the tone is like that of a big sister carelessly teaching the little kid who follows her ass, high up, but not offensive.

She used to call herself 'we', and she used to hold an apple, bite it with her white teeth, look at the tooth marks on it, and taste the sweetness.

"You, do you like our voice?" the shopkeeper made a crisp sound as he ate the apple, and his sudden words made Downton embarrassed.

"No, no!" Downton denied, but the other man's voice made his heart pound uncontrollably, and he didn't know what was wrong.

"Young man, under our gaze, all pretense is in vain. "There was a plate on the counter with four red apples stacked on top of each other, and the shopkeeper picked one up and tossed it to Downton.

Downton caught it in such a hurry that he almost dropped the tome on the ground.

The shopkeeper stopped paying attention to Downton and took a nap with a botanical illustrated book.

Downton walked to the shelves and breathed a sigh of relief until he was sure the shopkeeper couldn't see him.

"What's wrong with me, I've fallen under magic?" Downton asked.

"Do you really think she has a nice voice?" Homer knew, but didn't know how to answer, so she changed the subject.

"Don't you think? Listening to her voice, it's like sitting on the shaded grass on a clear summer day, eating sorbet, and watching the white clouds curl in the blue sky!" Downton took a quill and left red handwriting in one go.

"You are really a literary and artistic young man, don't think nonsense, hurry up and buy something, time is pressing. Homer urged, and he figured that if he didn't interrupt Downton, the boy might be going to write a sonnet lyrically.

"Why aren't these potions labeled?" Downton walked over to the shelves where the potions were kept, looked at the vials, and reminded the Grimoiary, "Don't use soul detection. ”

"Obviously, this is a potion that has been prepared privately, no wonder the business of this shop is not good, unless it has a reputation, no magician will buy a potion of unknown origin. ”

"How effective is the medicine?" Downton asked, subconsciously not believing that the shopkeeper would sell discarded potions.

"Even if I don't use magic, just a simple observation, I can be sure that these potions are of good quality, at least at the excellent level, and the potency of the potion has reached eighty percent. ”

Although Homer is not a professional potions master, she has seen countless potions, and her experience is enough to make up for it, and her eyesight is not worse than that of some intermediary potionsmen.

"Take this bottle of powerful magic energy potion as an example, there is no sediment, and the color is sky blue, which is the characteristic of the excellent level elixir, one hundred milliliters can allow a fourth-order demon soul of an empty demon to replenish the magic energy at one time. ”

"It's fine. Downton picked up the potion that looked like an inkwell and looked at the light, a shade that, like a drink, was definitely not unappetizing.

"Don't look at it, it's all about it, we're not afraid of expensive prices now, we're afraid of running out of stock. Homer told Downton to settle the bill.

"I bought all those potions, how much does it cost?"

"Our potion is perfect, for the sake of you being so knowledgeable, let's give you a seven-percent discount. The shopkeeper straightened up, dragged out a dusty potion box from under the counter, and handed it to Downton, "Go and pack it yourself, well, about two hundred thousand kindlands!"

Although it had been expected, Downton's heart still couldn't help but shake when he heard this price, these liquids, all poured together, could not exceed a liter, but the price was ridiculously high.

"The price she gave was fair. Homer commented, "So, knowledge is wealth!"
