Book 556 was delayed in the weapons shop
Nati and Zhou Shu were dressed in luxurious costumes for meeting the princess, walking on the cool and dusty street after the autumn, and walked towards the shopping street of White Moon City.
Due to the previous relationship with the assassins, Zhou Shu has not gone out much, except to go to the castle. People's vigilance can't be infinite, and after two weeks of not seeing any movement, Zhou Shu put his mind at ease and began to walk around.
"What do you want to buy?" Zhou Shu asked Nati beside him. In fact, he didn't want to ask what this guy wanted to buy, but he wanted to ask her who paid for her shopping?
Nati's pocket weekly book has been checked, and it is basically all small copper plates, and there are not many crescent coins. Zhou Shu didn't mind helping to pay, anyway, his gold was thrown away as stones, but thinking of Natty's character, he probably wouldn't let himself pay.
Unsurprisingly, Nati first said that some small items, such as clothes and leather goods, such as medicinal herbs and jerky, are all essential things for travel. On top of that, she also wanted to get a heavier weapon. After saying this, Nati also changed her words and said, "I don't have any money, so you have to go and make money with me first." β
"Make money?!" Master Zhou rolled his eyes, "You don't want to sue me, you want to go to the wild to fight monsters and make money first, right?"
Zhou Shu still remembers how he made money when he first came to this world and had no money, and he also took a job to help the army cut down trees, and the income was quite good.
Nati didn't understand what it meant to make money by fighting monsters, "If we go around the business district, someone should be able to set up a stall and wrestle their wrists or guess the dice, right? β
Baiyue Country is a place where there are quite few ways to entertain, and more intimate entertainment can be carried out on a woman's belly, which is very addictive, but the things that can be openly entertained and will not make people feel tired too quickly are only those gambling items related to competition.
If a few women are the first profession of human beings, the ranking of gamblers will probably be very high, right? Started working with Nattie to find various vendors.
Mr. Zhou had seen this kind of stall when he was young, but he was 100% a liar. Whether it's 'guessing which quilt the ball is in' or solving the endgame in chess, it's just a simple fool to fool around. Especially in the chess endgame, only people who don't understand it at all will join it with great interest, and the best outcome is just a draw. As a chess vendor, I don't even need to use my brain. By memorizing a few moves, you can gain the respect of the money and the onlookers who are chess rookies.
What would it be like to set up a stall in a place like Baiyue Country? Zhou Shu expressed interest.
After five minutes of wandering, the two of them found their first target, which was a dice-shaking guy.
The man was dressed in a formal dress, but he was sitting in a flower bed, and in front of him was a stall on the ground with a dice cup and a saucer for silver coins. He played with five six-sided dice between his fingers at the same time, and the two hands were ten together, and he looked high-end with his skillful technique.
This person looks a bit like a magician in terms of image, with a smiling expression and a slightly weathered middle-aged male image. It gives a bit of an unfathomable feeling.
Master Zhou has great respect for this kind of person who eats with his fingers, such as Kato Hawk, who himself does not have that skill. When Nati saw him, she took out all her copper plates from her pocket and hurried up.
"Let's play, guess the size!"
She said this, spilling the money on the stall.
Master Zhou habitually used the Book of Summoning to look at the person in front of him, an ordinary person, and the summoning points were nothing special. He himself would have preferred to see Natty deflated. But seeing that the uncle in front of him who seems to be very supportive is just an ordinary person, this unrealistic idea seems to be dispelled.
I don't know how Nati wants to win money with this. However, seeing that she looked very sure, listening to her tone of treating gambling as a 'withdrawal', Zhou Shu naturally thought that Nati could use the super six senses brought by the strength of her internal organs to do something.
The gambler smiled and put away the copper plate, and nodded to Nati very businessly. Before he could shake the dice, he said, "I'm betting big, what about you, this lady?"
Nati is also very rigid and chose small positively. Then let the gambler in front of him start shaking.
Zhou Shu's eyes were about to pop out when he saw this scene, and he looked at Nati with an expression of disbelief, "You guys just guessed before shaking the dice?!"
"Yes. Nati asked puzzled, "How else can you guess?" β
"But how do you know you're going to open a small one?!"
Nati patted her very interesting chest and said confidently, "My luck has always been very good, don't worry." β
Zhou Shu looked at the magician-like guy and smiled at him. I know that I am afraid that I will not be able to get back these few dollars of change. Sure enough, after the answer was revealed, it happened to be almost a big point.
Nati put on a 'how could this be' expression, as if she couldn't believe the reality. The gambler smiled and said that he was lucky, and asked Zhou Shu if he wanted to play too.
Master Zhou knows that this guy's skills are first-class, not only can he win, but he can also play to death like that kind of fighting game master, first control the blood and play himself to death, and then take away the opponent with a set of combos, pretending to be a Jedi counterattack. This can be regarded as a big point, and he must have deliberately shaken it.
Faced with such a respectable craftsman, Master Zhou felt that he should be given a reward that matched his ability, grabbed a piece of gold and threw it to him, and then said 'Bet small'.
Although the gambler was still smiling when he saw the gold nuggets, Zhou Shu could see that he was sweating down his head, probably feeling the pressure brought by money.
After the dice stopped, it was six or six three o'clock, and Master Zhou suddenly felt that this person was actually not a big deal. It can be seen that the reason why he was so calm in the game just now was because the gambling money of a few copper coins was not under pressure on him, so he would let go and show off his skills in controlling the points. Now, it seems that he will not take a piece of gold in stride, and instead of deliberately controlling the number of dice, he chooses to ensure victory.
Nati looked at Zhou Shu with a gloating expression, and Master Zhou whispered, "Don't forget how I fought with the Golden Bull, I don't lack gold." β
This was heard by Nati, who had a keen ear. It also gave her an epiphany. "Yes, you're from a rich man!!"
"Of course I have money. "Zhou Shustall spreads his hands.
Nati, who was a little reluctant to accept this reality, suddenly burst into tears in her eyes, pointed at Zhou Shu and said with an indignant face: "The money was all cheated from that extravagant princess!!"
"How is that possible? Who is the extravagant princess? The nicknames of the three little princesses have already been decided?"
The two exchanged a little, and Zhou Shu told the truth about the source of his gold nuggets, saying that he had stolen them from the treasure guarded by the evil dragon. He hadn't been to the second page of the Book of Treasures, Dragon Treasure, in some time, and strictly speaking, he hadn't been there since the ban. I've been to the candy house a few times.
Master Zhou really wanted to take out his golden sledgehammer. Before, he got a big hammer in the dragon's treasure, and at the time he thought it was a spear or something, but he just touched the long handle and was forced to retreat from the treasure book by the flames spit out by the dragon, but after taking it, he found that under the long handle was a hammer head of pure gold, and the scale was almost up to the bathtub.
"Eh, Nati, didn't you say you wanted to find a weapon of weight?". Zhou Shu suddenly wanted to tease her, "I have it here, do you want it?"
"Don't. "Nati is also very ambitious. "I'm going to go to the weapons house and pick up weapons myself. If you're willing to help, lend me some money, just a little, and I'll pay you back when I win. β
Win the money and pay me back?" β
"What's the matter, just lend me a little. β
Nati, who was not as ambitious as Zhou Shu imagined, continued to walk around the street while entangled with him, Zhou Shu remembered Nati's 'luxury princess' before, and asked again what this meant. Then I got a very tactful answer.
"Glass is so precious, Her Royal Highness the princess actually consumes so many windows. Such a luxury. No wonder there are rumors that the royal family is actively provoking a war because of its debts, which is used as an excuse for taxation. β
It's really not a rumor...... Zhou Shu also secretly sweated one, and then grabbed a pocket of silver coins to show Nati, who loves money.
"Look, there's money here, I can't give it to you for nothing, you need something to exchange with me. β
Nati surprisingly has the attribute of seeing money. This is thanks to the fact that during her adoption by the nobles, she had no pocket money at all, and she was used to being poor from childhood to adulthood.
"I will agree to any conditions. She looked a little excited at the shiny silver coin.
Zhou Shu looked at the ball that kept shaking on Nati's chest, and wanted to change the condition in his heart. If he hadn't decided a long time ago that he would be a good rabbit and resolutely not eat the grass next to the nest. If there are two things dangling around one day, he really can't hold it.
Master Zhou threw the money bag to Nati, and then instructed: "Promise me one thing, don't gamble again in the future, your head is not very useful, it doesn't matter if you are deceived bare-assed, if it is more miserable, I will not feel good." β
"You guess your head is not good!" Nati held the money bag like a baby and kicked Zhou Shu's calf, but she didn't use any force, just to show that she was angry.
"And you agreed?"
"Well, I'll try my best. She shook her money pocket, pointed to the shop not far away that specialized in selling armor weapons, and walked over with Zhou Shu with an excited face-
Master Zhou was a little strange, he hadn't seen that Nati liked money so much before, she had been pressed under the golden bull before, and he didn't see her have any special feelings about such a big lump of gold.
On the way to the weapons shop, he asked a little, and it turned out that Nattie thought that the gold was a fake conjured by magic, so she was not tempted.
"Fakes can also be spent, right?" Zhou Shu conjured up a gold coin with his empty hand and stuffed it to Nati, who looked at the coin she had never seen and unceremoniously received it in her pocket.
Zhou Shu suddenly felt that with this guy's money-loving character, he could really give her money and let himself have a shot on her. He thinks Nati's golden retriever is also quite cute, and because of her high summoning fee, if you want to engage with her, you really have to go to the real person.
Thinking of this, Master Zhou suddenly remembered another guy with high summoning points, the twelve-armed girl, and he forgot to pick her up in Hanhai City again......
The twelve-armed woman's sense of not having zΓ i has reached a considerable level, and Zhou Shu thinks that her memory is not bad, but she has suffered several losses at her hands. A woman with ten deformed arms around her waist should be very eye-catching and impressive, and Master Zhou really can't figure out why she is mixed up like this.
Arrived at the weapons shop pΓΉ, a place similar to a clothing store. Or rather, it's more like a larger musical instrument shop, with weapons hanging all over the wall like musical instruments. Armor is also placed in the shop like the drum kit and timpani.
"What do you want to buy?" Zhou Shu crossed his waist, looking at the things in the store and was not interested.
There were several pistols in his pocket, all of which he had obtained from the Fool store manager when he came to this world for use as a defense against monks, and the sick princess even asked for a machine gun very exaggeratedly and brought it over.
Zhou Shu is not afraid of his enemies using knives and guns with him. If the enemy has a pistol in his hand, then he will be terrified from the bottom of his heart and will cower because of it. After all, he was confident that he could block it with his arm before being slashed with a knife, but if he was hit in the head by a puncture, he would have to lie down.
Because Nattie was dressed very formally and decently, several male clerks received her very courteously. The number of female customers in the store is relatively small, but it is not impossible. After all, it would be a waste for a magically gifted person not to become a martial artist, so even a woman, as long as she has a magical talent, will embark on the road of dancing with knives and guns.
Nattie is like the monkey who broke into the crystal palace, and asks for the heaviest weapon in the store. She herself has no change in rank. The upper limbs are super strong, which also gives her the ability to use heavy weapons, and she already has a large hammer, but she is not very satisfied with its weight.
When Zhou Shu was circling Nati by the clerk, he also walked around the store for a while, and then he fell in love with a shield.
Over the years, Zhou Shu has attached great importance to his own defense work, and he always has a set of armor on his body. He personally didn't have a cold about the shield, it was just an iron plate. The leftovers in the steel mills of the first world are better than the high-end goods of this world, after all, the metalworking process is insurmountable here. However, this refers to the case where the shield is a normal shield. Mr. Zhou can't be said to be completely illiterate, but he knows two words, and the shield he looks at is separated by an exhibition rack, like an exhibit in the Louvre. Next to the shield was a wooden board with the words 'Magic Props' written on it.
Zhou Shu hadn't seen much magic props in the Eighth World, but the sick princess had used a sword that could blow out a whirlwind. One of Chief Chief's subordinates also used one of the sword, and Secretary Zhou thought that thing should be placed in his space belt, but he didn't find it in the previous cleanup.
The more powerful shield Zhou Shu has also seen, and the fir princess has two moon-level martial artists with shields, and their shields have caused a lot of trouble to Zhou Shu.
Now a magic shield is in front of you. Master Zhou was a little tempted, so he asked the price, and got an answer of 'this thing is not for sale'.
Some things are like this, hanging in the store and not selling, just to hook people's eyes. Zhou Shu had encountered a very delicious hot sauce in a snack bar before, which was made by the owner himself, and he wanted to buy a little, but the other party refused to sell it.
Zhou Shu will not be deceived by this kind of hunger marketing trick, he himself has read the principles of economics, since he doesn't sell it, then he won't worry about it. If he really wanted to, he might be able to get it by asking the sick princess directly, but he didn't have the heart to do so.
One shield is still very important to him who is greedy for life and afraid of death, since this side is not sold, Zhou Shu asked the price of the other side on the side, and then bought it and played with it in his hand.
This is an all-metal tower shield, that is, a giant shield, full of weight, Zhou Shu squatted down and was able to hide most of his body behind the shield.
He had barely been holding on to his shield when Nattie returned from shopping with a scary-looking one-handed weapon, the Round-Headed Mace.
"Eldest sister, do you like this tone?" Zhou Shu looked at the round protrusion on the hammer's head, and felt pain when he looked at it. The head of the hammer was the size of a football, and although it was much smaller than the war hammer in Natie's pocket, it was a one-handed hammer, so it was a large weight.
Nati saw Zhou Shu holding a ton of noodles in his hand, and showed a puzzled expression, "Such a big shield, can you fit your space props?"
"Huh?" Zhou Shu was stunned when asked, "What's not going to fit.................. ......"
Zhou Shu guided the shield like his belt, but the belt didn't suck this thing inside, and there was no reaction. Only then did he realize that there really wasn't enough space.
There are very few things that can be accommodated in the space props of the White Moon Country, so there are several leather pockets hanging on a space belt to increase the amount of carrying. However, the space in each pocket seems to be not enough for such a large tower shield.
Mr. Zhou glanced at the clerk, and the clerk showed an expression of 'this store will not return'. He wasn't going to retreat, he just wanted to change it to something that could be loaded, and seeing this guy's expression, Zhou Shu was angry.
"Natty, test your hammer with this shield. β
"Is that good?". Nati looked at the people around her, and she didn't really want to cause trouble in public.
"It's okay!" Zhou Shu had already confirmed that there were no half of the powerful people nearby, and decisively shouldered the tower shield to face Nati, "Come, use all your strength." β
In this way, the obedient Nattie smashed a hammer into the shield, and she grabbed the hammer with one hand from bottom to top in a large circle, hitting the shield like a baseball swing, and erupting with a terrible sound like the load-bearing wall of the house breaking.
The pure metal shield was smashed in half with a single blow, and Zhou Shu's two arms were all broken...... (To be continued...... οΌ
