Chapter 2: The Mystery of Life
"No, find someone else!"
"That's a person's healing technique plus a set of battle armor! Do you know how much mental power and magic power it will consume from me? The key is time! Do you know how precious the time of an intermediate alchemist is? The time of an intermediate alchemist is calculated in gold coins every second!"
The price was cut in half, and Merge was obviously a little unhappy, and said loudly with a gloomy face. If a person earns ten gold coins less, he will earn nearly a thousand gold coins less, which is even more distressing to him than cutting off Merger's flesh.
The iron head pursed his lips with an innocent expression, and said hesitantly: "I...... Camp Grower She ......"
"Okay, okay, ten gold coins for one person is ten gold coins, Sister Ning is not unreasonable once or twice, she is simply an iron rooster who does not pull out a dime. Hearing this, Moge's face was gloomy, and he said helplessly, "You wait for me outside, I'll pack up my things and we'll leave immediately." In addition, remember to fix the broken door frame for me, this is already the fifty-second door frame, and the door number will be replaced with a new one by the way. ”
Hearing this, the iron head couldn't help but sneer, who doesn't know that you Mog Nan is a famous little Daolun, one of the four iron roosters in Blue Ear City, and you also say that others are not pulling out a hair......
With that, Merge turned and walked towards the hut behind the counter. Seeing this, Ning Tianyu hurriedly followed and entered the hut together. Normally, Murge wouldn't let him into the hut once, but this time he was in a hurry, and Murge didn't say much.
The hut behind the counter is very cramped, with only a wooden cabinet and a bed, but the inside of the hut is fairly tidy, so it doesn't look too crowded.
Merge took off his shabby overalls, his naked upper body was beautifully lined, and the bulging muscles gave people a sense of visual strength. However, on its skin, the scars crisscrossing like centipedes are terrifying. It's like a scar left by a burn, and I can't even count how many there are!
Although Ning Tianyu, who was standing behind Merge, was not the first time he had seen these hideous burns, he couldn't help but shiver every time he saw them. Merger Nan, covered in scars, is intimidating. Even to Ning Tianyu, he felt that Mo Nan Zai looked more dangerous than the battle-hardened guards under him, like seeing some wolves covered in scars but ready to attack!
Ning Tianyu asked Mo Ge many times how these scars on his body came about, but each time Mo Ge answered either silently or said that he didn't remember. Ning Tianyu didn't know if Moge really didn't remember, or didn't want to say it, but these hundreds of hideous scars must represent a painful memory for Moge.
Noticing that his gaze was fixed on the scars around him, Merge smiled and looked down at the criss-crossing scars on his body.
In fact, Merge really didn't remember where his scar came from, and it had been a burning scar for as long as he could remember.
Merge had asked Doren, the old owner of the Alchemy Hut, about this, but Doran didn't know where Merg's scar came from. Doren told himself that when he brought the frozen unconscious Merge back to Blue Ears City from the icy Troll Mountains, Merge was covered in scars.
Merger, who is covered in scars, makes people feel frightened and distressed. At that time, Merge was only a three or four-year-old child.
Doulon believes that the bone-chilling cold of the Troll Mountains that day also brought permanent trauma to Merge, that is, Merge does not remember a single thing about what happened before he fell into a coma.
Unknown if it was because he was unconscious in the ice and snow of the Troll Mountains, or for some other reason, Merge Nan lost his memories of the time before he fell unconscious forever.
Merge couldn't remember what had happened before he fell unconscious, why he was a three- or four-year-old in the dangerous Troll Mountains, who his parents were, or who he was!
Dorun told himself that Merge was still holding a thick leather notebook in his coma, and Doulon learned that the child who was unconscious in the ice and snow was named Merge Nan.
Regarding the heavy book that Merge was holding, Doulon guessed that it should be a notebook, with notes about Merger's biological father. Dao Lun had read the notebook more than once, but as a low-level alchemist who was not considered a rich school with five cars and three cars, Dao Lun couldn't read the words on the notebook. You know, alchemists and pharmacists are well-known on the mainland and have a lot of knowledge.
The only thing that Dorun could understand was that on the cover of the notebook, it was written in the continental lingua franca, "My son Moge Nan, Qi".
Merge, who lost his memory, lived with Old Dorun in the alchemy hut of Blue Ear City since he was a child, and at the same time, Merge also learned alchemy from Old Dorun and became an intermediate alchemist through the Alchemist Association five years after Old Dorun died, reaching a height that Old Dorun had never reached.
If Old Daolun, a low-level alchemist known for being stingy in Blue Ear City, was still alive, he would of course be happy that Merge had passed the assessment of an intermediate alchemist. Because the higher the level of the alchemist, the more gold coins will flow into the alchemy hut. Of course, Old Dowlen is not blessed to enjoy these glittering gold coins.
Since the rise of alchemists more than 1,500 years ago, they are the richest and most gold-making profession on the mainland, and there is no one!
Of course, alchemist is also one of the most money-burning professions, after all, to train an alchemist, it costs countless alchemy equipment and items, which can be described as spending money. This is probably the reason why most of the alchemists on the continent are stingy and unscathed.
Ning Tianyu was very curious about the scars on Merge's body, and Merge himself was not. After Merge was picked up by Old Dorun and returned to the Alchemy Hut, he often flipped through the thick notebook, but before Old Dorun died, Merge couldn't even read a word on the note.
In the seventh year after retrieving Merger Nan, the elder Dowl died in an alchemy accident.
Merge still clearly remembers that the magic furnace that exploded in the hands of Old Dorun back then blew up the miserly old Dorun beyond recognition, and even the walls of the alchemy hut were destroyed by the explosion of the magic furnace. At that time, the heat wave from the explosion of the magic furnace tossed everything in the house, and Merge was swept away by the heat wave, and was crushed under the collapsed counter, and fell unconscious for five days.
When Merge woke up again, he was the only one left in the alchemy hut.
Although the stingy old Daolun is an iron rooster with a penny of hair, he is a good person. The durability of the battle armor that has been repaired by Old Daolun is very high, so Old Daolun has a lot of regular friends and friends.
During the five days that Merge was in a coma, several of Old Dolun's old friends and some border guards who often came to the Alchemy Huts to repair their battle armor buried Old Dolun's body outside Blue Ear City, and repaired the walls of the Alchemy Hut that had been blown up.
Merge naturally became the new owner of the Alchemy Hut, but for Merger, who had lost his only loved one, the death of Old Dorun was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, leaving Merge at a loss.
For five or six months after the death of old Doryon, the door to the alchemy hut was never opened.
Later, Merge ate up everything he could eat in the alchemy hut and was forced by life to reopen the alchemy hut and make a living by repairing battle armor and refining some alchemy items. This also creates a maturity that is different from that of his peers, and values that are different from those of his peers.
The older generation of people in Blue Ear City like to call Murge Little Dowlun, or a little money fan.
Thinking of the title of a small wealth fan, Merge couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly. There is no way, life still has to go on. Especially in the dangerous Blue Ear City, trading with these hunters who live on the tip of the knife is not possible without gold. Merge shook his head, retracting the flood of memories and reaching for the wooden cabinet, from which he pulled out a set of cream-white robes with striped sleeves.
The moment Mo Ge opened the wooden cabinet, Ning Tianyu behind him seemed to have seen some rare treasure, his eyes were attracted by the items in the cabinet, his eyes widened, and he said with some surprise: "Two-star Light Priest robe, intermediate alchemist suit, one-star magician cloak, fourth-level adventurer's cloak, fourth-level free hunter suit, intermediate pharmacist suit......"
After changing into the milky white Priest of Light robes, Merge pinned the two-star Priest of Light badge to his chest and put the Intermediate Alchemist Certification Badge in his pocket. Merge turned to look at Ning Tianyu's surprised expression, and couldn't help laughing: "Why, don't you worship me very much?"
Ning Tianyu stroked the various robes in the cabinet and the various metal badges hanging in the cabinet, and asked loudly, "Big brother, how can you have so many association certification badges and clothes? These can't all be fake, right?"
"Can the certification badge be faked? That's the craft of a legendary alchemist. Merge said with some pride.
"Why do you want to pass the certification of so many associations, so that it will not cause a lot of incompetence? You must know that getting the certification of the association not only requires talent, but also requires a lot of time, and how can you still have the time and energy to delve into alchemy after taking so many association certifications?"
"I make money on this. ”
Mo Ge Nan smoothed the folds of the white robe on his body, patted Ning Tianyu on the shoulder, and looked at him with the eyes that you are still young. With that, he walked towards the door of the alchemy hut.
After the death of Doron Sr., Merge's life changed dramatically. A large part of these changes came from the notebook left by Merger's biological father.
One night after Doron's death, when Merge was about ten years old, Merge suddenly discovered that he could read the mysterious text on the notebook.
It seemed like an innate talent, just as people are born to read pictures, monsters are born to know that human flesh and blood are more delicious, and dragons are born to be attracted to things that are shiny with gold. It was like an instinct that suddenly turned on when Merge was ten years old.
However, on the thick notebook, there was no record of the words about the life experience that Murge was expecting, but some alchemy, magic, methods of cultivation of fighting spirit, light spells, some strange spells, and so on.
That notebook was like an encyclopedia, covering all the disciplines on the continent.
For seven or eight years, while repairing his armor, Merg Nan devoted all his attention to studying the notebook. The things recorded in this notebook not only raised Merge's alchemy to a higher level, making Merge pass the assessment and certification of an intermediate alchemist, but also allowed Merge to obtain nearly a dozen titles such as a two-star Light Priest, a one-star magician, a fourth-level adventurer, a fourth-level freelancer, and an intermediate pharmacist.
If it weren't for the limited talent of Moge and the lack of the slightest fighting talent, Moge could even make these titles he already had go up to another level.
............
Merge, who walked to the door, shook the key in his hand, turned around and asked, "Are you coming with me?"
"Go, go, go, wait for me!" Ning Tianyu shook his head, and for a while he couldn't understand why Merge was able to pass the certification of so many associations and get the certification badge, so he stopped thinking about it and hurriedly caught up with Merge.
He waited in the alchemy hut for his sister, Ning Meng, to return to the city after the mission, and waited for nearly two weeks. At this moment, Ning Meng finally returned to the city, and of course Ning Tianyu couldn't wait to meet his sister.
