Chapter 35: Candy House (3K)
Halima Jacob withdrew her misty gaze from Chris, smiled, and saluted gracefully to Du Moqing who walked towards her.
"Good day, one who flows noble blood."
Du Moqing nodded, and responded with a bit of arrogance: "Miss Halimah Jacob, welcome to you." ”
Then, straight to the point, he asked directly, "Miss Halima Jacob, you came so soon, you must have brought what you promised me." ”
"Sir" Halimah Jacob didn't answer directly, and her tone was slightly heavier: "We said okay, you promised to teach Chris, something that is enough to make a career on the battlefield." ”
"Instead of learning to step on a rope and be like a juggling clown, the treasure I have paid is enough to bring you and your family a steady stream of wealth, and now I don't think our deal is equal."
The smile on Du Moqing's face stopped abruptly, and his eyes looked directly into Halima Jacob's eyes, using psychological skills to exert pressure.
"Miss Halimah Jacob, do you distrust my abilities, do you doubt that I will go against the honor of the Impes family and cheat in the process of trading, or do you think he has learned something from me and wants to terminate the transaction."
Du Moqing stared at the changes in Halima Jacob's pupils, thinking that it was wrong, although he was a little flustered, but it was just because of the pressure brought about by the unequal status, then...
"Or Miss Halimah Jacob, who thinks she is smart, and wants to raise the price to help Chris get more things."
Du Moqing looked at Halima Jacob, whose pupils were subconsciously reduced, and thought that he had guessed correctly this time, and couldn't help but feel frightened by the witch again, the curse called love.
This thing is even more outrageous than the aura of Long Ao Tianhou Palace, that thing just lowers IQ and falls in love with each other unconditionally, how does this thing feel like it is not affecting the host's situation, distorting thinking, and making one person unconditionally dedicated to another.
"Sorry! Sir, I'm not," Halimah Jacob
"Okay" Du Moqing directly interrupted Halima Jacob, who was guessed what he was thinking and wanted to explain.
"Miss Halima Jacob, you don't have monkfish arranged by your parents around you, so you don't understand how valuable what I teach"
"Will I understand how valuable your teachings are?" Seeing that the plot had failed, Halimah Jacob learned the way of conversation that she had learned from the territorial officials, and shifted the subject: "What is monkfish?" ”
Du Moqing found that he quickly changed his mouth and explained: "That's the metaphor of my hometown, talking about the guardian knight who dedicates his life to you. ”
Monkfish is a stalk on the player forum, the male monkfish has been looking for a female monkfish all his life to become a pendant on his body, and the female monkfish has a male who does not know a one.
Many people have read fairy tales, and most of these stories end the same, with the princess and the prince living happily together.
Perhaps many people will feel congested by the sentence that in fairy tales, the knight will always protect the princess, and the princess will always marry the prince.
For the one who was ignored by everyone, bravely stood up and stood in front of the evil dragon;
The knight who stood by at the princess's wedding and came to guard silently felt aggrieved.
But in reality, the relationship between the knight and the princess is full of absurdity, and it is really impossible to say who will suffer between the prince and the knight.
The relationship between the three of them is not ordinarily complicated.
The knight is a dead soldier who has been bred since childhood, as a dowry to let the daughter of the foreign marriage in the field, the armed forces will not be bullied, in the secret these people are not only responsible for safety, but also have a well-known identity - the princess's lover.
After all, it is not easy to reproduce as a powerful life, and these guardian knights are also to ensure that the princess who marries in the past and helps the family give birth to an heir.
Of course, the premise is not to be discovered, after all, in the Middle Ages chastity was very important, and many times those noble parents would send a maid.
Under the exaggerated skirt, there will be a maid carrying a basin to take Ollie, who is usually in charge of 24-hour surveillance, for fear that there is a man hidden underneath.
Du Moqing didn't bother to delve into the ethics and morality of the world that stimulated his three views, why did it appear? Du Moqing still has to maintain his character after all.
I don't want to use too drastic means to snatch the treasure of the immature little apple, and the due decency must be maintained.
At the very least, it is worthy of the trust of Little Red Riding Hood, who has brought the treasure with him and believes that he will not snatch it.
The most important thing is that Du Moqing doesn't know that the use requirements of this treasure, if there is a mantra like a banana fan, it will really be numb claws.
Therefore, Du Moqing used verbal persuasion.
"Miss Halima Jacob, what do you think is the most important thing on the battlefield? I'm telling you not how many enemies you kill or how much credit you make, but how much you live. ”
As for why this world appeared, similar to the war meritorious promotion system of the imperial examination in the previous life, Du Moqing was not clear.
But why hasn't the population of this world died, Du Moqing really, understand a little, the month of reproduction in mid-December.
This world is still one of the background settings in the game, and it is also December of a year, but this month does not refer to the month as time, but the real moon.
What represents the scarlet moon of the dead and the dead, and the natural moon that represents the growth of life, flowers and trees, all have corresponding magical natural phenomena, in short, they are quite unscientific.
The month of reproduction in mid-December corresponds to simple reproduction and mating in the moonlight.
From pregnancy to the birth of a new offspring, it is only a matter of weeks for ordinary civilians to become pregnant.
The appearance of the legendary Fertility Moon will also bring a very terrifying disaster, and it is also the reason for the death of players who stay in the wild.
Rabbits, which are originally very harmless, will breed wildly on this day, not giving birth to cubs in the conventional sense, but directly dividing, 2 to 4, 4 to 8, 8 to 16, 16 to 32.
It's a carnival of carnivorous creatures in the wild, and demonic monsters lurking everywhere will come out to feast and reproduce and mate.
Until there is a shortage of food, and then either lurking or because of the lack of food, this can be called a monster spawn and a monster siege in the game.
"Now the identities of the two of you are destined to not be together, so you want Chris to go to battle and get meritorious service to become an official, but the premise of everything is to live."
Du Moqing used his thinking logic to fool around seriously: "A good mount and good armor are essential things to survive, if it is just armor and mounts, I believe that Miss Halima Jacob will have a way to get it." ”
"That's right! I have contacted the merchant to prepare such things as armor and swords, and the fierce mounts of lions, tigers, wolves, or bobcats are far superior to ordinary horses. Halimah Jacob replied confidently.
Du Moqing nodded with satisfaction, in fact, he kept thinking about this other question in his heart, this Little Red Riding Hood is not normal.
A normal aristocratic lady only has a fortune of a few silver coins or a few gold coins, and if the price of goods does not change, it will take at least nearly a thousand gold coins to buy these things.
Why is she so rich?
Thinking about other questions in his heart, Du Moqing continued to use his logic to persuade: "Have you ever thought that lions, tigers, giant wolves, and bobcats are not suitable for ordinary people to ride. ”
"It's good to fall down on land, but with the protection of armor, you will be injured at most. But that doesn't guarantee Chris's safety on the battlefield. ”
"But the good things that really save your life are, eagles, bats, these things that can fly in the air, and you must know that those things that can fly, not only are they not suitable for riding."
"There is still a fierce wind blowing in the sky, even if you don't have a good balance, fall directly from the sky, don't think that your armor can protect Chris anymore."
"There's only one result, he'll be smashed into a discus with your armor filled with meat sauce, and what I'm teaching him now is a precious riding technique."
"As long as he can ensure that he survives on the battlefield, as long as he goes to the battlefield a few more times, he can accumulate enough merits."
"Miss Halimah Jacob, would I like to continue the transaction?"
Halima Jacob thought seriously about Du Moqing's words, Chris's safety is more important than anything else, and the other party's teaching is to run away on the bike, although it is a bit embarrassing for the noble, but Chris's safety is more important than anything else.
So he nodded with satisfaction.
"What I promised you," he said, reluctantly pulling out a candy hut from the basket that looked like a work of art.
Thinking of his plan, he unswervingly handed it to Du Moqing, with an innocent smile on his face.
"Candy House?" Du Moqing took the things handed by the other party, looked at the artwork made of candy, chocolate and desserts of various colors in his hand, and wanted to take a bite and taste it to make sure that he recognized the wrong thing.
Du Moqing was puzzled, was his expectations too high? This is called a treasure, and a sweets that are made beautifully can also be called treasures.
Looking at Du Moqing, who was puzzled and fiddling with the candy house, Halima Jacob couldn't help but smile proudly in her heart.
'Mother and father's treasures, which are more important than life, have been stolen by me and handed them over to you, hoping that you will bear the root of the family's domain, so rich. ’
'The brunette aristocrat who humiliated Chris, I want you to die faster than I would trade with you to solve future crises'
'You think signing the contract will prove that Brother Chris wants to harm you?' I also want to punish Chris for regaining the dignity of a black-haired nobleman in front of my father and other officials. ’
'Who would believe it now?' A thief who threatens the lord's daughter to steal the treasures of the realm, you should think more about how to die in front of my father and his army to maintain the dignity of the nobles? ’
