XLIX. The Gift of the Dwarves
readx;
The short man's face changed slightly, and he looked at Nicole's large, attentive eyes, and hesitated a little. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he tapped the table with his knuckles and asked, "You are not a hunter in the hall, why do you want to make traps?"
Dwarven gifts, also known as trap-making tools. Ian still has some impressions of this thing, and when he was in Liuyun Village ten years ago, there were many people who discussed for a long time whether or not to make traps against the Dragon Emperor. In the end, it took a few weeks for a famous trap maker to make, but unfortunately the trap was useless, and the master of the trap didn't know what it was burned.
Trap making tools were first invented by dwarves, and if the dwarves with short stature want to deal with fierce beasts, they can't rely on brute force alone, so according to legend, among the four tribes, the dwarves have the most developed technology. Alchemy also originated with the dwarves.
"Hunting. Nicole replied with a smile, "Beat the tiger bear or something." ”
Tiger bears are a type of bear, and are called tiger bears because they are covered with fur that resembles tiger markings. It's true that tigers and bears are not something that everyone can deal with, and there are many people who rely on traps, but some low-level traps are of little use to tigers and bears, so trap makers are a good choice.
"You also know that the dwarven gift is a forbidden item in the hall. The man knocked on the table and said, "Hunters who are not in the hall can't buy it, so this rule has been abolished in recent years, but it hasn't been abolished after all." ”
"You make an offer. Nicole said heartily, "I know what you mean, and I'll be careful not to let people find out." ”
The man's eyes suddenly came alive. Ian looked at it, a little disdainful in his heart, this expression was very familiar to him, whenever those black-hearted sellers in Black Rock City swooped off customers, their eyes were like this, and they could almost glow.
"A fixed price, ten gold coins. The man didn't pretend anymore, but talked about the conditions with a big grin, as if it were a normal transaction, and didn't remember the rules he had just put on his lips.
"It's too expensive. Nicole's face instantly became bitter.
"Well, it's not impossible to be cheaper. The man frowned his head and said quite "reluctantly", "For the sake of the two of us, eight gold coins cannot be less." ”
There's a fate?
Ian twitched the corners of his mouth, and his impression of the hall unconsciously dropped a lot. I thought that the hall was full of heroes like Carl and Rudo, but it turned out that there were also black-hearted businessmen like this in front of me who were talking nonsense with their eyes open.
"Still, it's a little more expensive. ”
The man was a little unhappy: "Little sister, you have to figure it out, what you want to buy is contraband, and no one can sell it to you except me." ”
"That's right. Nicole pretended to think for a while, but finally shook her head, "Forget it, I don't want it." ”
The man's face was a little ugly: "Little sister, are you fooling me?"
Nicole blinked: "No, originally I only wanted to buy it from you for a gold coin, who knew that you increased it tenfold, I can't afford it, of course I don't want to." ”
"A gold coin?!" cried the man, his voice sharp and unpleasant, like a mouse grinding his teeth, so that the people in the tavern looked at it with displeasure. He hurriedly covered his mouth, then stared at Nicole angrily, and cursed in a low voice, "Are you kidding me? Where are you going to buy a dwarven gift for a gold coin?"
"A gold coin can't be bought from a real hall merchant, of course. Nicole spread her hands and smiled, "But since you are an impostor, presumably the things you sold me are also counterfeits." Then it's already good to give you a gold coin. ”
The man's face changed greatly, and he looked around, and saw that no one noticed him, so he dropped a sentence viciously: "Stinky girl, you wait for me." ”
Then he picked up his things and ran away, and he didn't finish his drink.
Ian looked at this dramatic scene, quite speechless, I didn't expect this man to be fake? Hmm, just say how could the hall be mixed with such a thing, but the girl in front of him doesn't seem to be anything special, why can he see it?
Nicole asked for a bowl of rice wine and drank it happily. Seeing Ian looking at her with a puzzled expression, he pursed his lips and said, "What are you doing?" ”
"How did you see that?" Ian couldn't help but ask, "You know that much about the halls?"
"I don't know much either. Nicole shook her head and said, quite proud, seeing that Ian was a little speechless, "But I know a lot about the merchants in the hall, my grandfather used to be the merchants in the hall, I have seen that sign since I was a child, I can't tell if it's true or not?"
"That's right. Ian saw that Nicole's rice wine was very fragrant, and his mouth became greedy, so he asked for a bowl and drank it with relish. So while chewing on the rice grains in the rice wine, he asked, "Let me ask you, do you know where there is a hall guild around here?"
"You're going to join the lobby?"
"What, no?"
"It's not that it can't be, I think a little sissy like you who drinks and drinks rice wine should be kicked out of the hall. Nicole looked serious.
Ian had just drunk the wine in his mouth and spit it out. How big he is, some people have scolded him for being dirty, some people have scolded him for not having clean hands and feet, and some people have scolded him for talking shamelessly...... But it's the first time someone has scolded him.
"You stinky girl can't talk. "Ian is very depressed, this girl has such a beautiful face and such a poisonous mouth. It's like my Messiah, beautiful, quiet, and a little tsundere.
Hey, what's wrong with my family?
Thinking of the Messiah, Ian's heart became irritable again. If it was in the usual days, when she encountered such a "equal" quarrel opponent, Ian didn't mind letting her understand what it meant to be a street scolding power. But he was in no mood at the moment, called the boss to settle the bill, and left after paying the money.
Nicole picked up the bowl and drank the last sip of wine, but she inadvertently caught a glimpse of what was hanging on Ian's waist when she got up, and her eyes widened suddenly, and the rice grains poured into her nose without taking a breath. Then she dropped the bowl and coughed violently.
Ian looked at it and was happy, it was really evil and evil. Then he sneered, whistled and left.
Nicole finally caught her breath and saw that Ian had already walked to the corner, so she hurriedly shouted to check out and followed. Because she had just seen a dagger hanging from Ian's waist, and on the handle of the dagger, a lifelike thorn flower was carved.
Not long after the two left, two men and two women occupied their positions, attracting the attention of a large number of people.
