Chapter 66: Farewell
"Bang ~ bang ~ bang, seniors are there?"
With his ear attached to the door, Lone Star asked tentatively.
"Squeak~"
There was only a creak, the door was pushed open, and an old man walked out of it.
After the old man came out, he first took a closer look at Lone Star, and when he saw his radiant appearance, he couldn't help but quip: "Little brother slept well last night?"
"Ahem...... Very good......"
How could Lone Star be embarrassed to tell him that he was drunk and unconscious last night, laughed a few times, and then changed the topic and said: "Thanks to the seniors, the kid is grateful, by the way, I don't know what happened to the seniors calling the juniors today?"
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that the old man and the little brother hit it off at first sight, and now that the little brother is leaving, the old man is really a little reluctant in his heart. ”
The shopkeeper walked back to the room first, and Lone Star saw this, so he had to follow him in and sit down.
"Hehe, the seniors laughed, the seniors and friends are well-versed in the world, and I'm afraid that the kid is gone, and no one can talk about it for a long time?"
"Hey, I'm already half of my body almost in the ground, where do I dare to expect any friends. ”
The shopkeeper sighed with emotion: "Not to mention that the old man is now depressed to this extent, even in the past, there are never more than five people who can talk to me like this, and the little brother is the fifth." ”
Lone Star shook his head when he heard this: "If it weren't for the seniors who had something to ask for, I'm afraid the kid wouldn't be able to get into the eyes of the seniors." ”
"That's true, if it weren't for the old man's request for the little brother, then the little brother would be amazing in my eyes at most, and the old man would sigh at most, and he would never take the initiative to get acquainted. ”
Lone Star suddenly smiled, not feeling uncomfortable in his heart, but admired the shopkeeper's confession.
"But anyway, I already know my seniors, and if that's the case, then why bother with how he met. ”
"Haha, the little brother is right, if you know each other, you will know each other, and you want to do so much. ”
The shopkeeper suddenly laughed heroically, but after laughing, he looked at Lone Star and said seriously: "The little brother has to go in a hurry today, and the time is limited, so the old man will not go around in circles with the little brother." ”
With that, he took something out of the cupboard, but he didn't know what it was, because Lone Star saw that it was covered with cloth.
Lone Star hurriedly took it, and then patiently ripped the cloth away little by little, and found that it was a knife, and it was very similar to the one held by the first of the six people yesterday.
"It's ......"
"That's right, it was the weapon of the person I drove away yesterday, and today the old man borrowed flowers and offered Buddha to the little brother. ”
The shopkeeper blocked what Lone Star wanted to say, and said: "The old man thinks that he has lived for most of his life, and he has seen a lot of divine weapons, but this knife really makes the old man embarrassed, the process is very different from the method used in the forging of ordinary weapons, almost the opposite, but the effect is still very good, and it is a rare treasure knife." ”
Hearing this, Lone Star took the knife and looked at it carefully, and found that it was indeed as the shopkeeper in front of him said, this knife looked quite heavy at a glance, but it was surprisingly light in his hand, after being unsheathed, a cold light suddenly stabbed in the face, enough to see the sharpness of this knife, I believe that even if it is not as good as the waning moon, it is much stronger than ordinary weapons.
"It's indeed a divine soldier, but the predecessor seems to have sent the wrong person?"
Lone Star closed the knife and politely refused: "The kid is using a sword, even if this knife is good, the kid will never choose it, since it is useless to me, then the predecessors will still put away this intention and leave it for the next destined person." ”
"Definitely. ”
The shopkeeper suddenly shook his head and said: "The old man himself is running out of time, where is there time to find someone destined for him, besides, there are really few people who can make the old man look at it in the world, the little brother should take it himself, he can give it to the brother if he doesn't need it, it's really not good, it's good to exchange it for some scattered silver taels, and the little brother shouldn't shirk it anymore." ”
"Swap for silver?" Lone Star suddenly twitched the corners of his mouth, if such a treasure knife is sold, I am afraid that it will really be a tyrannical thing, and the shopkeeper who is also losing will be able to say this.
Hearing this, Lone Star immediately stopped shirking, such a treasure knife, and was afraid that it would not be able to be sent out, so he put the knife back away with a wry smile, Lone Star directly put the knife and a cloth bag on his back, and was about to thank the shopkeeper, but saw him take out something from his arms again.
"What is this?"
Lone Star played with the small sign of unknown material in his hand, and found that there was nothing else on it except for a word engraved on it, so he immediately asked curiously.
"It's nothing, it's just an identity in the past, and I don't know if anyone still remembers it after so many years. ”
The shopkeeper said: "The sky is high and the earth is wide, the sea of people is vast, the world is as changeable every day as a white cloud and a dog, even if you and I meet today, he can't guarantee that something will not happen, so I have to leave this place, when I quit, if the little brother follows the memory to find, but there is no old man's figure, then it is not a big regret in your life, it is better for the old man to leave a trace, if he really can't find me, there is always a clue in hand." ”
Lone Star suddenly realized: "I see, the seniors can rest assured, what the seniors said today, the juniors must remember." ”
"Hmm. The shopkeeper nodded and said: "There is another point, this order is very involved, and I also ask the little brother not to show it easily, otherwise I am afraid it will bring some unnecessary trouble to the little brother." ”
Lone Star said: "The kid understands, without further ado, the kid has to go on the road now, senior, let's meet again in the future." ”
The shopkeeper suddenly sighed: "Then let me give my brother another paragraph." ”
Just walked out of the door of the inn like this, the little two had already prepared dry food and other things in advance, and after Lone Star said a hard job, he turned over and got on the horse, and at this moment, he finally couldn't help but ask the shopkeeper a question.
"The seniors favored me in every way, and they did not hesitate to pour a lot of effort into the kid, but did you ever think that the kid would never go back, and then all the hard work of the seniors would come to naught, aren't the seniors afraid?"
Before the words fell, Lone Star saw a fierce color flash on the shopkeeper's Xiao Er's face.
The shopkeeper seemed much calmer, turned slightly and walked towards the inn, only to sigh softly on the way around.
"Some people may not be able to be honest with each other for the rest of their lives, while some people may be able to put their hearts in touch just by looking at them. ”
The shopkeeper's faint words instantly stunned Lone Star, and he muttered and repeated what he had said, feeling a lot.
He knew that the shopkeeper was not deliberately answering his question, perhaps he said it only because it was the truth that he had spent the first half of his life testing, and he had only happened to hear it.
Eventually, Lone Star stepped on his horse and left, and in an inn behind him, an old man stood in the direction of his departure for a long time, until his figure had disappeared from view, and then he withdrew his gaze and muttered something he didn't know what he was saying
