Chapter 12: Crazy Ideas
In the alley not far from the back gate of the City Lord's Mansion, two men were talking about something.
& What do I do. A man in the uniform of the City Lord's Mansion asked. On the other side of the man, a man in a black cloak said in a low, hoarse voice, "It is said that Xue Xin is going to let Xue Ni go to the Demon Beast Mountain Range to find a breakthrough opportunity, and now there is a task for you." ”
&'s very well-informed. ”
& We are always well informed. Listen to your mission, be sure to follow Xue Ni into the mountain, and then we will send a team of men to follow you, along the way you use special markers to point out the direction, and you can reverse it when it is critical. Got it?" said the man in black.
I know, I'll go first. After speaking, the man glanced at the man in black, turned around and disappeared into the alley.
In the city lord's room, Xue Xin took a written letter in his hand and said to the person next to him, "Give this to Elder Su of the branch." Then you go to the Wanluo blacksmith shop in the east of the city and bring a message to the boss inside, saying that Xue Xin invited him to come to the city lord's mansion for a gathering. With that, Xue Xin handed the letter to the person beside him, and then got up and walked out of the room.
In the dining hall, Lin Yue had lunch and said goodbye to Ah Niu, and then returned to his other courtyard. Thinking about the construction that Ah Niu just gave himself, if he didn't awaken the specific totem, even if it was a rare attribute, it would be useless, and he could only rely on luck to become a strong man? This is not fair, there must be other ways. Looking at the two suns on his arms, Lin Yue's thoughts didn't know where they had drifted.
Suddenly, Lin Yue's pupils shrank, and a flash of light flashed in his mind. Since this totem is so much like a tattoo, can I add something myself? The idea was like wildfire burning out of control. In the dark, Lin Yue felt that there must be some connection between this totem and tattoos. Stroking the sun totem on his arm, Lin Yue decided to take a gamble and make a crazy real yàn and tattoo it on his hand. He didn't know what the consequences would be, but his instincts told him that he could give it a try.
Now that it's decided, let's take action. Tattoos, also known as tattoos, are made by piercing the bottom layer of the skin with an inked needle to create a pattern or word on the skin. The history of tattooing has been on earth for more than 2,000 years, and the tools used for modern tattooing have changed from needles to tattoo guns. But in the Totem Continent, Lin Yue definitely couldn't find such a high-tech thing, so he decided to use the most primitive tattoo method, acupuncture. As for the pigments used for tattoos, there are usually two kinds of pigments, one is natural pigments made from natural minerals and plants, and the other is artificial pigments made from synthetic zuò. Lin Yue decided to go out and look for something that could be used as tattoo paint or finished paint.
Out of the City Lord's Mansion, Lin Yue came to a shop at random and asked the boss, "Boss, do you know where to buy paints for painting?"
I don't know much about the paint, but there seem to be a few dyeing shops in the east of the city, so you can go there and ask. The boss replied.
After thanking the boss, Lin Yue set off to the east of the city to find the pigment he needed. From the south of the city where the city lord's mansion is located to the east of the city, it takes at least half an hour to walk on foot. Lin Yue's mood was impatient now, so he chose to take the car without thinking.
Since he was a beggar's memory, Lin Yue learned that in addition to the magical totemic power in this totem world, there is also an equally magical thing, Hextech. Similar to all kinds of cutting-edge high-tech on the earth, Hextech is like the high-tech of the Totem Continent. However, the people of the Totem Continent only used this technology in their daily lives, and did not develop into force.
After turning a few intersections, Lin Yue came to a station near the City Lord's Mansion. Just like the bus stations on Earth, there are many such stations made with Hextech in every city on the Totem Continent. From the outside, the station resembles a large metal bowl with an upside-down buckle. Walking in from the gate, Lin Yue came to the counter and said to the people inside, "Go to the east of the city, alone." Then he pulled out a gold coin and handed it over.
&Hello Sheng, do you need a card worth one gold coin for 100 rides, or do you only need to ride once?"
& Card bar, thank you. Thinking that he could use it in the future anyway, Lin Yue chose a reusable car card.
& You can go to the energy car, this is your car card, please take it. With that, the girl at the counter handed Lin Yue an ordinary-looking metal card.
Lin Yue walked into the station with the card, swiped the card in his hand on a one-person-high metal machine, and a seat immediately rose on the ground next to him. Lin Yue sat down cautiously and entered the destination he wanted to go to on the seat. I only heard a metal sound of "clicking", and countless metal pieces quickly wrapped the chair Lin Yue was sitting on as if they were conjuring. Then after a mechanical beep, a strong push back feeling came.
After a few breaths, the machine listened to it. Then the metal piece wrapped around the outside disappeared, and Lin Yue found that he had come to a different station. The speed of this Hextech energy car is really fast, and it will arrive in the blink of an eye. Putting away his card, Lin Yue walked out of the station quickly.
Completely different from the rest of Shengyang City, the buildings in the eastern part of the city are all made of metal, and even the ground is no longer an ordinary stone road, but a smooth metal pavement. Because most of the manufacturing industries and various large chambers of commerce and auction houses in Shengyang City are located in the east of the city, which means that the rich merchants are basically in the east of the city, the architectural style of the entire east of the city has become much more luxurious than other places. After inquiring with pedestrians on the road, Lin Yue learned that there was a printing and dyeing workshop called Color House, which was located not far away.
Walking on the smooth metal pavement, Lin Yue felt that he had gone to the future. Before this, even the little beggar had never been to the east of the city, after all, this area was where the rich lived. The rules in the eastern part of the city are strict, and it is strictly forbidden for people under the untidy identity to enter.
After a few steps, Lin Yue came to the door of the color house store. Walking into the store, Lin Yue looked around. The walls were full of colorful fabrics and other textiles, and when he found a clerk, Lin Yue made it clear that he wanted to buy paint.
& Please come with me, big business needs to be discussed in a special reception room. This little brother mistook Lin Yue for a purchasing representative of other printing and dyeing workshops or some chambers of commerce, and politely took Lin Yue to a quiet elegant room.
>> Actually, I just want to buy a little paint to paint, and I don't need much. Lin Yue felt as if he was being mistaken for a businessman who had come to buy a large number of paints, and hurriedly said out loud.
Hearing Lin Yue's words, the clerk's face changed suddenly. "Didn't you say it sooner...... Who has nothing to do and is idle to buy paints and paint, say, what kind of paints do you want? The clerk's tone immediately changed 180 degrees. After all, in the martial totem continent, few people would spend their minds on painting and other side ways.
&Q: What are your paints made of?, and what colors are available?" Lin Yue didn't know anything about the paints in the Totem Continent, so he had to ask again.
& Of course, the ingredients are all made of colored grass, what else can be used. As for colors, we have everything you can think of. There was a hint of impatience in the clerk's tone.
>> What is the price? Lin Yue asked.
& Buy at least one pound of pigments, the price depends on what color and grade of pigment you buy. The cheapest black pigment is ten silver coins a pound. The clerk replied.
"Ah, what does the grade of this paint mean?" Lin Yue continued to ask cheekily looking at the clerk's disdainful eyes.
>Why don't you know anything and still come to buy paint...... The pigment grade refers to the grade of the colored grass from which these pigments are made. The pigment of the ordinary annual colored grass zuò is the first grade, the two-year-old colored grass is the second grade, and so on to the tenth grade. Above the ten, there are 20 years of Bronze, 30 years of Silver, 40 years of Gold, and 50 years of Platinum. The highest grade of pigment is a diamond grade made from colored grass that is more than 100 years old. The higher the grade pigment, the longer the color will be retained, the first grade pigment can only be retained for a hundred years, while the diamond grade pigment can make the color as bright as new forever. But depending on how you look, you'll need low-grade paint at most. The clerk introduced Lin Yue in one breath, although he was very disappointed that Lin Yue did not come to buy a large number of pigments, but he still answered various questions for Lin Yue.
After thinking about it for a few breaths, Lin Yue decided to buy a grade 10 pigment. After all, it is to pierce your own skin, and it is definitely best to use high-grade ones, but the funds are limited.
>> Okay, I want to buy grade 10 pigment, charcoal black, how much does it cost?" Lin Yue asked.
& level of ?5 gold coins. Or, if you want me, I'll get it for you. When the clerk heard that Lin Yue wanted a level 10 paint, his tone was much more polite.
Lin Yue thought about it for a while, he still had 9 gold coins on his body, and he spent 5 to buy paints, and the remaining 4 gold coins to buy needles for tattoos, which should be enough. "Okay, here are 5 gold coins, thank you. ”
After a while, the clerk returned with a small metal bucket. "This is the charcoal black grade 10 pigment you wanted. As he spoke, he handed the bucket to Lin Yue.
I opened it and looked at it, and I was sure that it was the color I wanted, and I gave it to Qian Linyue and turned around and left the store.
