Chapter 12: First Encounter with the Cold Plain
Zorro was bored in the car, he took the smartphone given to him by Rofos and tinkered there, nothing to say all the way, and soon it was night, today after passing through 2 villages and now in a small town, so the driver proposed to rest in the town for a night tonight, because this car is from the royal capital, and the road picks up passengers all the way, and some guests have only been in the car for several days, so the driver proposed so, and the passengers are willing to accept it.
The town is called "Barus Town", and it is a relatively old town, and although the architecture of the town is better than that of Lorain Village, it still has a bit of old age. The town is very prosperous, large and small buildings are dense, many shops, food streets, clothing stores, etc. are bright at night, and the town looks like a starry sky, with dense crowds and very lively.
From the beginning of entering the town, Zorro admired these novelties all the way, and soon, the driver parked the bus in front of a hotel, and the passengers packed up their luggage and quickly got off the bus, and entered the hotel one after another, of course, Zorro was no exception, he had no luggage, just a backpack and a seal, he went upstairs after paying the money at the front desk, his room was 303, the room was very simple, after all, the accommodation fee was not high.
After he put his things away, he decided to go out for a walk, so he went downstairs with Feng Zheng on his back. Walking to the front desk, the salesperson at the front desk was a woman in her 30s, looking peaceful, and Zorro stepped forward to ask.
"Hello. ”
"Hello, may I ask you something?" replied politely.
"I would like to ask where to eat?" Zorro was indeed a little hungry again, although there was food in the bag, but he wanted to taste the freshness of the outside world.
After hearing this, the woman gave Zorro the way in detail, and Zorro quickly remembered the route, and it turned out that there was a food street not far in front of him, so he went straight in the direction of the food street.
The hotel is built in a slightly remote place, so there is no traffic in this vicinity, which is why the driver chose this place in order to consider everyone's economy, here, just now the woman also specially reminded Zorro, saying that there is no flow of people in this vicinity, let him be careful.
Zorro was walking down the deserted path, dimly lit, when a voice aroused his curiosity.
"Yo, little white face, look at the lot of gold you are wearing, my brother is just short of money to spend, borrow some?"
Zorro followed the sound to a cul-de-sac, and the sound came from the mouth of a stout man with a sturdy build, followed by several young men with mocking faces.
"Ahh
Zorro leaned against the wall to watch the play at the corner, and at first glance, he knew that it was a robbery, and he said that there are still people robbing in this era?
At this time, the strong man thought that the man was afraid, so he took the initiative to reach out to his pocket, but as soon as he reached halfway, one hand instantly grabbed his wrist, and then twisted it backhand.
"Don't touch me. The man said lightly.
"Ahh
The man then let go of his hand and pushed the strong man to the ground with ease, looking at him coldly.
"Damn, brothers, give it to me!" the strong man sat on the ground and did not forget to command.
When several young people heard the order, they immediately took out their daggers, looked at the man in front of them vigilantly, and were silent for a few seconds before attacking the man at the same time.
The man put his hands in his pockets, and he didn't care, only to see that the dagger was easily dodged by him, and the ordinary and ordinary kicked down one, and after a few consecutive kicks, several young people all fell to the ground.
Zorro didn't feel surprised to see it from the sidelines, because he had expected it a long time ago.
At this time, the strong man in the lead suddenly stood up, his expression was hideous, and just as the man was facing away from him, he drew a dagger and attacked the man secretly.
"Die!"
"Knock!" In the blink of an eye, the strong man had already slammed into the wall behind him, smashing out the human mark.
Zorro patted the dust off his hands and said calmly.
"Tsk, I hate sneak attacks the most. ”
The man slowly turned his head, and only then did Zorro really see his face clearly, with a high nose, a slightly pointed chin, and sharp facial features, a handsome horse.
"Isn't that you? The man smiled slightly, he could simply charm thousands of girls.
"........," Zorro said in his heart, why is this thing so handsome. "I'm just passing by. ”
"Friend, thank you for your help, I'm Hanyuan Wegener. The man stretched out his hand and smiled in a handshake pose.
Zorro said that he was handsome, and his name was so good, but he still held his hand very politely and introduced himself.
"Just call me Zorro. ”
"Surname?" Kanhara wondered.
"Hmm....... Calamity, Zorro Calamity. Zorro hesitated, he didn't expect anyone to ask that, remembering that he never seemed to have ever said his last name, but he answered anyway, because he felt that no one in this world should know his name, after all, 300 years ago, most people only knew him as "Demon Master".
Han Yuan was slightly stunned after hearing this, but he quickly recovered and said with a smile.
"Calamity? What a strange surname. ”
Then the two walked out of the dead end while chatting.
"How could you be robbed in such a place?" Zorro glanced at the cold plains.
"Well... Originally, I just wanted to go out for dinner, but I encountered it on the way, and I am used to this kind of thing, and I will encounter it every time I go to a place. Hanyuan explained helplessly.
"Hehe, who made you look handsome, it just so happens that I also came out to find food, let's go together. ”
"yes, yes. ”
So the two went to a restaurant, sat in a private room, ordered a few dishes casually, and chatted while drinking tea.
"You should be from the village in front of you who went to the imperial capital. Hanyuan was the first to speak.
"Well, how do you know?"
"Hehe, I see you have a rustic taste. Hanyuan smiled and joked.
"Yo, you're not, you're obviously not from here. "Did Zorro say I was like a bun???
"Hehe, what do you say?"
"Hey, hey, your painting style is obviously different from others, okay..."Zorro has a black line, in fact, he heard his surname, Wegener, Wegener was a famous explorer before the "Necromantic Apocalypse", and he had excavated countless ancient civilizations, so he was a little curious about the cold plains.
"I don't know what you mean, but I'm not a local. Han Yuan took a sip of tea, leaned back in the chair, cocked Erlang's legs, and said elegantly.
"Let me introduce myself again, I am the 'Explorer', Hanhara Wegener, and my family has been an explorer for generations, the clan Wegener. ”
Zorro said that he had guessed correctly, so he said with a smile. "Is it Wegener, the father of the doctrine of drifting on the Izo continent? ”
Hanyuan glanced at Zorro in shock and hesitated for 1 second.
"Why do you know? As far as I know, there's no way there's a title on the books now, right... Are you from the royal family?" Han Yuan was slightly excited, because it was impossible for anyone else to know about this title of his ancestor except for the five major capitals and his family.
"Uh... I have a friend who is royal, and when I was a kid he told me the story of Wegener. Zorro was stunned, is this a secret? So in order not to make Hanyuan suspicious, he casually made up a reason.
"I see..."
After a while, the meal was ready, and the two chatted about Wegener's story while eating, and soon became friends, and soon after the meal, Hanyuan stood up.
"It's not too early, let's go back and rest early. Han Yuan is a steady and mature man, he knows how to look at the atmosphere by time, he looked at the watch in his hand, and said slowly.
"Well, so are you. Zorro didn't say much, and simply agreed.
Then Hanyuan paid the bill, but Zorro was unwilling, but he was forced back by his sentence "You're welcome".
"Thank you, I'm having a great day today. Han Yuan's eyes revealed a hint of loneliness.
"Hehe, me too, we'll see you again in the future. ”
"Well, goodbye. ”
After Hanyuan left, Zorro went back to the hotel, lay down on the bed peacefully, and fell asleep unconsciously.
