Chapter Forty-Three: The Shepherd Maiden
The dwarf then finished speaking: "The name of this hoe is called 'Heavenly Evil Hoe', it needs to consume gem resources to excavate, every time you contribute a gem resource, you can dig it, if there is no gem resource, the Heavenly Evil hoe will immediately become an ordinary hoe, so you must calculate how many gem resources you have in your pocket, and how many times you need to dig up the Shepherd Girl's home." Until you complete the mission, I can only sponsor you with a maximum of 20 gem resources. “
The dwarf dug out a small gem from his trouser pocket and handed it to Bai Quanyu, who was so surprised that he couldn't see anything else after getting this super cheating hoe, until the dwarf slapped him, he woke up and quickly took the 20 gems funded by the dwarf.
The dwarf reminded again: "Little brother, this hoe must be returned to me after completing the task, if you dare to take it secretly, I will find you all over the world to bring you back and skin and bone." “
He hurriedly replied: "Then it must be, how dare you deceive the eldest brother's things." I'm going to dig up the shepherd's house tonight and poison the old immortal. Big brother, you just need to hide in the dark and wait for my code. “
The dwarf happily sat back on his throne and boasted, "Okay, I'll see you." “
The shepherd girl's home, and the distance of 1,200 meters from the dwarf's words could not be more accurate, and he really saw a simple hut built under a large locust tree after walking 1,200 meters, and in a place of exploration full of black fog, few people choose to live in it, because it is full of unknown dangers, unless the person is hiding in it for refuge, or hiding in order to hide in it.
On the periphery of the house, there was a fence with bells, and as soon as he approached the house, he saw a young girl feeding two or three lambs under the big locust tree, and she was quite beautiful in appearance, but very plainly dressed, and with a small white scarf wrapped around her head, and at first glance he was sure that this woman was indeed worthy of the dwarves to spend so much money on it.
The girl seemed to see Bai Quanyu's arrival, and greeted him with a smile: "Your Excellency is lost?"
He was caught off guard by the girl's call, he only wanted to inspect the environment first, and then go around to the back of her house and wait until the evening to dig, but he didn't expect the woman's eyes to be so sharp, and he immediately noticed him dodging.
He had no choice but to walk over and replied, "This, my name is Bai Yu, I have been lost in the mountains for 1 month, and I happened to see your hut here, I wonder if Miss is willing to let me go in and rest for a while." “
The girl said kindly: "Of course, there are many people who get lost in the hills every year, and my father has built a small house here in order to protect these lost pedestrians, and if you don't dislike it, you can come in and rest." “
The girl seemed to be a very caring person like his father, which confirmed his belief that he must not kill them, but now that the dwarves were most likely watching from outside, he could not communicate with her here.
Bai Quanyu was about to be invited by the girl, when he entered her house openly, at this time, I saw the shepherd girl come directly over, grabbed his arm, and pulled him inside with a gentle and lovely look, Bai Quanyu was frightened by her actions, he was so anxious that he hurriedly cleaned the surroundings a few times, vaguely, he saw a pair of angry eyes that wanted to strangle him from a dense grass, he was so frightened that he quickly twisted his neck, and did not dare to look behind.
The girl whispered beside him, "Did Your Excellency be invited by the dwarf Sophik to kill my father?"
Bai Quanyu was unusually surprised by her sense of smell, how did she know his purpose.
The girl lowered her head and whispered implicitly: "You don't have to be afraid, I know that you are threatened by him, and the anxious action just now has betrayed you." “
He replied awkwardly, "Let's go in and talk about it, since you already know everything." “
The maiden took him into the house, and then quickly closed the curtains, and she invited him to sit down at a small old round table, and poured him a glass of water herself, and then took a piece of butter bread from her cupboard, and handed it to the table, and when she had done all this, she returned and sat down beside him, and looked at him carefully.
"Eat, we only have this bit of food at home, please don't dislike it. “
He glanced at the Shepherd's maiden's house, which was a very delicate little house, and although it was dilapidated in appearance, the girl kept it very well, and judging by the age of its construction, it must have been more than 20 years old.
In the house, there were two small rooms, presumably the bedrooms of her father and daughter, and in addition, there was only a simple small wooden round table and a bottle of Nuer flowers placed on the round table.
"Mr. ......"
He interrupted her and said, "I'm not an accomplice of the dwarves, you have to trust me." “
The girl listened to his words, was slightly stunned, and then nodded meekly like a lamb.
She took out a small money bag from the cuff of her clothes, and then poured the copper coins in the money bag on the table, with a slight pleading in her eyes, and said, "Sir, may I ask you for one thing?"
Bai Quanyu looked at her little hands that seemed to be calm, but actually trembled, and didn't know what she wanted to say.
The girl said, 'If Sir is really not an accomplice of Sophie, I would like to ask him to take me out of here.' “
"Take you away? Bai Quanyu said in surprise.
The girl continued: "Don't hide it, sir, my father passed away a month ago, and he sacrificed himself to save a caravan that was surrounded by demonic beasts, and Sophik didn't know it. ”
Only then did he realize that this girl had been using empty city tricks on the dwarves for a month, and poor Sophik was so frightened by her father's aftermath that she dared to peep from a distance, and she still didn't know that her rival was no longer there.
"I want to get out of here, I know the way out of here, I need your help. The girl was full of anticipation for his answer.
He grabbed the more than 30 copper coins she had poured on the table, looked up and said, "30 copper coins." ”
The girl said, "I'm sorry sir, but this is the last bit of property my father has left, and I can't give you any more money." “
Bai Quanyu thought for a while and asked, "It's not that I don't want to agree, it's just that I ......"
The maiden said: "If Your Excellency does not agree, Sofik will soon find out that I am cheating on him, I will be coerced into becoming his wife, this is my fate, and Your Excellency will be trapped here, and no one here knows the way out except me, including Sophik." “
"Well, one more person is not too much, and one less person is not less, since you have said so, then for your glass of water, this piece of bread, and these 30 copper coins, I will also take you out of the hill safely. Bai Quanyu agreed.
