Chapter 197: The Tavern
"Uh, this lord, are you going to join this caravan trip?" Half an hour later, Xiao Ye's caravan office, the girl who received Chen Tianhao, asked cautiously. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"What, can't you?" asked Chen Tianhao lightly. He just let out the momentum of his average demon warrior, and he shocked everyone in this room.
"Uh! It's not that it can't be, it's that our caravan has no intention of recruiting a demon warrior of the level of an adult, and we may not be able to pay for it. The girl who received Chen Tianhao hurriedly replied, for fear of making Chen Tianhao unhappy.
In this ordinary town that is not prosperous, the medium demon warrior is already the most high-end combat power, and the Xiaoye caravan is just an ordinary small caravan, and it has not yet reached the point where it needs the protection of the medium demon warrior with the team.
"I don't need much pay, you just pay me the same as everyone else, and I just want to go along. Chen Tianhao didn't care after hearing his sister's words, and put forward his own request.
"Really?" the girl asked in surprise.
"Hmm. Chen Tianhao calmly agreed.
"Okay! Our Xiaoye caravan welcomes this adult to join!" When the girl wanted to say something, a slightly excited voice came from behind Chen Tianhao, agreeing to Chen Tianhao's request.
"Captain!" the girl shouted loudly when she saw the person coming behind Chen Tianhao.
"Well, I'll discuss with this lord, you go and rest first. The person who said yes loudly walked up to Chen Tianhao, said to the receiving girl, and then turned his head to look at Chen Tianhao.
"My lord, we welcome you to join the caravan, and as for the reward, we will try to give it according to your value. This Xiao Ye captain stared at Chen Tianhao and said seriously.
"Then it's up to you, I'm just just trying to take a ride, when exactly will you leave?" After receiving the caravan's affirmative reply, Chen Tianhao asked casually.
"Well, we will depart in the morning in two days' time, do you have a place to stay now, do you want us to arrange it?" asked the captain again.
"No, then I'll come back then, and I'll go first. After finishing speaking, Chen Tianhao turned around and left, leaving behind a group of people in the caravan who were at a loss.
"Sister Lin, what did you hesitate about just now? Such a big good thing should be agreed to directly!" When Chen Tianhao walked away, the captain also complained to the previous reception sister.
"Captain, I'm sorry, I was scared just now, I didn't expect an adult of such strength to apply. The girl said a little aggrieved.
"Forget it, but you have to receive this adult well in the future, I didn't expect such a good thing to meet our Xiaoye caravan, it's really lucky!" Captain Ye whispered to himself excitedly and walked towards the backyard.
And Chen Tianhao, after determining the departure time and place of Xiaoye's caravan, did not rush back to the inn, but wandered around the town. Now, however, he noticed that he had a few more small tails behind him. But he didn't care, some of those little tails followed after leaving Xiaoye's caravan, and some of them were just staring at him halfway. The former should have been just a caravan whose people wanted to inquire about him, and they didn't come to bother him. And the latter may be the force behind this town, and they will definitely not ignore a strong man like Chen Tianhao. In fact, it is nothing that he is followed, and there will be no secrets to be discovered anyway.
And Chen Tianhao's sudden desire to take a ride on the caravan this time was only a temporary idea, he had been practicing alone for almost three months, and he had long been used to the taste of loneliness. However, if a person stays too long, he will be out of touch with society, and he is not like being a person like that. Therefore, this time he chose to go on the road with the caravan, which can be regarded as reintegrating into the crowd, and by the way, he can slow down his pace, he really forced himself too seriously some time ago.
"Whew! ”
At this time, in a small principality far away from the Nanxuan Empire, Chen Rui and Zhu Xiaolong were drinking in an ordinary tavern in a small city. Of course, Chen Rui was just watching Zhu Xiaolong drink, and he himself would not drink something so unpleasant.
"Hey, Lin Rui, what are we going to do next? I spent half a month replacing the exercises, and the secret arts are also being cultivated in a hurry, so I have to find something to do." Taking a sip of the spirits in the wine glass, Zhu Xiaolong looked at Chen Rui, who was drinking boiled water opposite, and asked.
More than half a month has passed since they started on their way, and they left the Duchy of Peron a few days ago and came to this neighboring country. Zhu Xiaolong had already replaced his exercises, and he now felt how wise his decision was. The exercises given by Chen Rui seemed to be tailor-made for him, although his cultivation did not improve after transferring to this exercise, but he felt that his strength had at least increased by more than one percent, which was the benefit of high-level exercises.
Now Zhu Xiaolong has long stopped thinking about the third-level demon core, the value of the demon core is high, but the exercise given by Chen Rui is more suitable for him now, and the value is also not low. And that secret technique, although it is difficult to cultivate, but the little bit of fur he has just learned makes him very excited, because the secret technique is not a little bit or two to improve his strength.
"Well, I know your heart is itching after your strength has improved recently, so didn't you bring you here?" Chen Rui said with a faint glance at Zhu Xiaolong.
He understood in his heart what Zhu Xiaolong meant, he had been on the road all this time, Zhu Xiaolong must have felt bored, and it was indeed not a good journey for those who went out to practice for the first time.
"Is there anything here?" Hearing Chen Rui's answer, Zhu Xiaolong squinted his eyes and looked around, but he still didn't find anything strange, it was just an ordinary tavern.
"It's really eye-catching, because the city is relatively small, and there is no branch of the Hunter Guild. But where there are people, there is a market, and where do employers who need to post tasks find people to take them? How do hunters and demonstrators make money or exchange it for what they need?
That's where certain places come into play, such as this tavern. In this city, ordinary warriors or idle hunters will gather in this special tavern, where they will post and accept quests, although it is not very formal, but it is better than nothing. Chen Rui gave Zhu Xiaolong a brief explanation.
"Oh, that's it, then how do you know that this tavern is that special tavern?" Zhu Xiaolong still had a question.
"Because I'm a genius!" Chen Rui replied casually, these things can be known as long as you ask 256, do you still have to ask why?
"Okay, good, you are a genius, you don't need to emphasize it every time!" Zhu Xiaolong replied helplessly, every time he had any questions, Chen Rui always used this sentence to deal with him, and he was used to it.
"Alright, as far as I've got, there should be an exchange meeting here tonight, with quest releases and item exchanges. We'll see if there's anything that suits us then, and then it's okay to loosen our muscles. Chen Rui looked at the sky outside and estimated that this tavern should also show its other side.
"Sorry, you two, this tavern doesn't serve guests tonight. Just as Zhu Xiaolong and Chen Rui were waiting for the night to fall, a junior from behind the bar walked up to the table between the two of them and said politely.
"Oh, the rules, I know. Chen Rui was stunned for a moment, then reacted, promised in his mouth, and then stretched out his hand into his arms.
"Oh, give, margin, that's enough. When Chen Rui's hand was taken out again, there was already a dozen more silver tickets in his hand.
"Well, that's enough, then I hope you two have fun. The little second took the silver ticket handed to him by Chen Rui with an unchanged face, and after a brief count, he bowed silently and left.
"There's also this set, this tavern has a lot of money!" Zhu Xiaolong also understood what the silver ticket Chen Rui gave just now was, and it was obviously unreasonable for the tavern to be used as a trading point and not charge a certain amount of remuneration.
"Well, it's okay, after all, even the Hunter Guild will have a commission, and it's not too much for him to take that much, and in the end, we will return some of it if we don't receive the task. Chen Rui drank the glass of boiled water in front of him and said lightly.
The two waited for a while, and when night fell completely, the anger in the tavern changed. The little er who had come to Chen Rui to collect the commission silently walked to the front and closed the door, and also closed a thick curtain behind the door.
Then, the otherwise noisy tavern fell silent for a moment, until some lights came on one after another in the darkness.
"It's kind of like that. Chen Rui looked at this series of changes in the tavern and whispered softly.
"Lin Rui, are you going to start?" Zhu Xiaolong felt the change in the atmosphere around him, and asked as he leaned closer to Chen Rui's side.
"Well, it should be almost the beginning, but... Chen Rui pushed Zhu Xiaolong away in disgust.
"But what?"
"You're also a dignified mid-level demon warrior, can you not be like this, um~ a little family!" Chen Rui was speechless.
Although there are now some demon warriors and some hunters in this tavern, the highest strength does not surpass Chen Rui, and there are not many who have reached the middle level of demon martial artists. Therefore, Zhu Xiaolong's current cultivation is already very high in public among these people, and there is no need to be so nervous.
"Oh, yes? I've never seen anything like this, I'm not used to it. Zhu Xiaolong sat back in his place.
Just as Zhu Xiaolong and Chen Rui were chatting in a low voice, an old man walked out of the back room of the tavern, he was dressed in a cyan robe, full of white hair, and his body was meticulously groomed, and he looked very shrewd.
I saw him slowly walk to the center of the hall of the tavern and stand, then look around and speak:
"Okay, old rules, first of all, welcome to today's exchange meeting, I think the people who can sit here are people who know the rules of our exchange meeting very well, so I won't say more. Also, thank you again for your continued support of our tavern. Then, no more nonsense, this exchange meeting has officially begun!" )
