The area of the blacksmith shop is not large, only half the size of the shop, and the sound of ping-pong keeps coming from inside, but fortunately, the road is spacious enough, and the willow garden diagonally opposite will not be affected at all.

This is not a prosperous area, because the existence of a hunting ground has further reduced the commercial atmosphere of the surroundings, so it can be seen that this shop is only a small business.

Three or five big men were sweating bare-chested and beating ironware, and when they saw a neatly dressed guest suddenly come in, one of the middle-aged men wiped the sweat from his cheeks, and said with a smile: "Is Mr. going to fight weapons?"

The young man in white waved his hand and said, "I'm here to find someone, I heard that you have an old man here who is a jack of all trades, and I want to ask him about something." ”

Hearing him explain his intentions, the middle-aged man couldn't help but laugh out loud, and said to several blacksmiths behind him: "There are really people who are looking for that madman in Hakuri......

Several blacksmiths also burst out laughing, as if they had heard a very funny joke. Seeing their expressions, David Mo's brows couldn't help frowning, which was too rude.

The middle-aged man saw that his face was a little unhappy, and immediately explained: "Sir, don't be angry, the little one is not laughing at you, it's really that madman in Hakuri who really doesn't deserve your trust in him, I advise you to go back." ”

David Mo's face was a little better, but he still insisted: "Whether you are crazy or not, at least you must see him first so that you will not leave regrets, and please tell me where he is." ”

Seeing that there was no way to dissuade him, the middle-aged blacksmith had no choice but to reply: "He has been crazy all day, he should have run out to play now, and he should come to the shop when it is time for dinner, if you don't mind, then wait here." ”

David Mo nodded and said lightly, "I'd better go out and wait." Don't delay your business. ”

He was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by the middle-aged blacksmith and said, "We don't have any business here, just wait in the shop, sir." I'm going to pour you a cup of tea. Find yourself a bench to sit on. ”

With that, he turned back to the shop, and the other blacksmiths did not make a fuss. After laughing a little, I got back to work. David Mo glanced at the small shop, and finally confirmed that the middle-aged man just now had no malicious intent.

An ordinary iron cup with some tea leaves in it, and the middle-aged man handed the cup to the young man in white with a little smile on his face. It can be seen that although he is a rough man, he also understands human feelings.

In a noisy blacksmith shop. David Mo chatted with the middle-aged man for a while, and he gradually learned something about Hacuri.

First of all, this old man is indeed not an ordinary person, he is a cultivator, and his cultivation level is not low. At least above the silver level, because according to the middle-aged man, this person came to their shop as early as his grandfather's time.

"He's an outsider, just like you. But over the years, I've spoken the local dialect more smoothly than I did. About 60 years ago, my grandfather became close friends with him and told us to serve him for generations to come. ”

His face was flushed by the fire, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead. I couldn't help but sigh and said, "Originally, our life was very peaceful, and no one bothered us, but since Harkuri said the way to treat the eldest princess, everything has changed......"

Next, he explained a little about Princess Celestia. That was twenty years ago, when the Grand Duke's sister, Her Excellency Princess Celestia, was seriously ill and the whole country was helpless, and the Grand Duke of Lucerne decided to proclaim to the world that anyone who could cure the eldest princess's illness would receive a reward of 200,000 gold coins!

At that time, the middle-aged man's father happened to be worried about the blacksmith shop, and they had no money to renew the lease. But at this time, Hacuri disappeared, and three days later he returned to the shop and directly took out 200,000 gold coins to the middle-aged man's father.

Relying on this money, they not only have their own storefront, but also pay off the old debts they have owed for many years. However, the happy life did not start for long, and then the troubled days followed.

Because of this incident, Hacuri's reputation spread out at once, and countless dignitaries appeared in their small shop, all of whom came to Hakuri to cure diseases or solve doubts, and at first Hakuri could cope with one or two, but the rumors became more and more evil, and almost touted him to the same status as the ancient prophets.

It was at this time that Hakuri suddenly went crazy, and his whole speech began to flicker, and gradually no one believed his words anymore, so the madman began to be gradually forgotten.

The middle-aged man looked regretful when he spoke, but occasionally a touch of cunning flashed in his eyes. However, he hid it well, and the young man in white did not find out about it.

As the minutes ticked by, the sky gradually darkened, but Hakuri still didn't appear. David Mo had already stood up, and after looking at the shop for a while, pacing back and forth a few times, he finally began to look a little impatient.

The middle-aged man wanted to speak several times, and finally stopped what he was doing, and persuaded him: "That madman in Hakuri doesn't know when he will come back, why don't you go back first, sir, and come back tomorrow." ”

David Mo said firmly: "I can't hide it from this big brother, I came to Hakuri senior this time to ask for advice, and the situation is urgent, so I don't want to delay for a day." ”

The middle-aged man couldn't help but sigh when he heard his words, he didn't know what he was thinking, and finally picked up the hammer in his hand and continued to beat.

After a long time, the sky was completely dark, and a chaotic footstep came from a distance, and David Mo, who had been standing outside the shop and staring at the bright moon in the sky, immediately turned his head to look over.

I saw a slightly rickety figure gradually appear in the field of vision, his face was a little old, but his hair was not messy, which made David Mo a little disappointed, it seems that this person should not be a "madman" Hacuri.

When the old man reached the blacksmith's shop, he suddenly stopped and shouted inside, "Poole! Is the meal ready? The old man is hungry, and he is dying of hunger!"

Then, as if he had suddenly spotted David Mo, he immediately exclaimed, "Who is this man in white?, is he going to eat with us too?!"

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Hacuri, this person is here to ask you about things, can you not shout...... The meal is ready, just waiting for you to eat!"

Hacuri looked up and down at the white-clothed young man at the door a few times, and his two eyes suddenly glowed, and he said extremely obscenely: "Someone has come to send money again?!" If you want to ask something, you can do it, but you have to give me ten gold coins first!"

David Mo carefully observed him for a while, and always felt that something was wrong in his heart, and he pondered for a moment before saying: "The gold coin is easy to say, I just hope that the seniors can answer me a few questions......"

The old man hurriedly patted his chest and promised: "As long as you give me gold coins, I can answer any question for you......" Then he pretended to be mysterious: "Little brother, you don't know, I am the one who once treated the eldest princess, and there is nothing in the world that I don't know." ”

He spoke like a magic stick, as if he wanted to cheat money. But a flash of realization flashed in David Mo's heart, and he immediately replied: "Then thank you seniors." ”

He reached into the gold coin bag with his right hand, directly counted out twenty gold coins and handed them over, and said with a light smile: "Please accept these money from your seniors, if it is not enough, there will be it here." ”

Who knew that the lewd old man's face changed immediately after taking the gold coin, and he said with a little regret: "Young man, you misunderstood, I just said to accept your gold coins, but I never said that I would definitely answer your question." ”

Then he shook the gold coin in his hand very proudly, and said to the middle-aged man: "Poole! Look what this is! Gold coin! I have told you hundreds of times, there will always be such fools in this world, but unfortunately you never believe it! Hahaha......"

Poole hurriedly put down the hammer in his hand, trotted all the way to David Mo, and said with great embarrassment: "Sir, don't be like this madman, I'll help you get the money back now......"

David Mo didn't have any anger on his face, he still smiled lightly: "Brother Poole, you are polite, these small money will not hurt the harmony between us, as long as the senior Hakuri is happy, then everything will be worth it." ”

Hacuri's face changed slightly, but he immediately covered it up, he didn't continue to pay attention to David Mo, but walked into the blacksmith shop with his head down, and said with a stupid face: "It's really boring, hurry up and eat!"

Poole looked at David Mo apologetically, and said in a low voice, "I'm really sorry sir, this old man is a madman, you must not be like him." ”

David Mo looked at him with interest, and said plausibly: "Since Brother Poole feels that there is no sincerity in the next place, then I will not be reluctant, but I will come again tomorrow, I hope you will be willing to answer my questions when the time comes......"

After saying that, he smiled faintly, turned over and galloped away, leaving Poole, who looked stunned, standing in place. After half a ring, Poole couldn't help but rub his chin and muttered in a low voice: "I didn't expect him to see through it, what is the flaw......"

When he turned back to the blacksmith's shop again, the blacksmiths who had been silently striking iron immediately stopped their movements and gathered their brushes in a row, as if waiting for his orders. And Hakuri, who was originally crazy, also straightened his body, and he no longer looked half obscene.

Poole's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said lightly: "It seems that I haven't been able to deceive this little guy, and there is finally an interesting young man from the Duchy of Lucerne......"

When his voice fell, a cold wind blew behind him, and the door panels that were originally hanging alone on both sides closed automatically with a "bang", and all the stoves were extinguished in an instant!
