"Laugh at what you laugh at, laugh again and eat you all!"

Time was still there, there were not many guests in the Fist Storm, and the most lively iron cage fight had not yet begun, and as soon as Babu and Monica entered the door, they saw a young girl yelling frantically at the four merchants of the Hills Chamber of Commerce, dancing with twisted expressions as they screamed, as if they were really going to eat people.

"Dare to take the initiative to come to my territory to laugh at me, I'm going to throw you all into the cellar to make wine, roar, roar~ Who, who's patting my head, I'm in a very bad mood now, dare to pat my head, and when I come out, I'll kill you all...... Oh, you're here. ”

"Monica, come and drink with me, I've been holding back all afternoon." The crazy Aurora was pressed by Monica's head, and finally quieted down, and in a blink of an eye, she forgot why she was roaring just now, and happily took out a small keg of beer and smashed it on the table, and then as if she suddenly remembered something, she pointed at Babu with a vigilant face and scolded, "You are not allowed to drink, you guy must be going to feed this little girl secretly, don't come here." ”

"Stop making a fuss." Monica pressed Aurora's head and shook it, "Come with us to the edge in a minute." ”

"Okay." Aurora jumped up, moved her arm joints, and said, "Shall you go now?" ”

"Ahem, ahem." Little John, who had been probing his brain on the side, coughed a few times, and found that Aurora didn't react, so he could only cough continuously, Aurora finally reacted and turned his head to look at him, "You didn't pluck the feathers when you ate chicken at night?" ”

The rat-like man breathed hard and deeply, trying to keep his expression normal.

"Haha, you don't have to worry, they tried their best to help me before, they are friends, they won't hurt me, and Abby said the same, so don't worry." Aurora waved her hand and said nonchalantly, "Monica, Babu, are you going now?" Also, do you need to go deep into the edge, if you need to, I arrange for a few people to locate around the entrance. ”

"No, it won't go too deep, it's not safe at night." Monica said as she asked the four Hills Chamber of Commerce merchants with her eyes, and after making sure that the four of them were ready to go, she said, "Then let's go, if it goes well, we will be back in a few hours." ”

With the assistance of the Third Highness, it did save a lot of trouble, as soon as a group of people went out, someone had already prepared a fast horse, and while there were not many people on the street just after dark, it only took less than two hours to gallop all the way to the outer city gate. The soldiers guarding the door were startled by the appearance of the Third Highness, but after looking at the familiar trap in her hand, they felt a faint pain on their faces, so they didn't say a word, and helped a group of people open the gate, and took over a large group of mounts by the way.

From the calm and tranquility of the present world to the edge again, the familiar sense of whirling change, the familiar heartbeat of expansion and contraction, the familiar fishy sweetness filling the nose, and the most familiar, like the ubiquitous red mist.

"Every time I enter the edge, I wonder what the fog and the dust we see are all about."

Taking a breath of some pungent dusty air, Babu sighed, habitually patrolling the surroundings as usual, as expected, the visibility at night was much worse than during the day, standing by the entrance, all he saw in front of him was a hazy fog, and the shadows in the fog seemed to hide countless eerie and terrifying monsters, dancing invisible tentacles, appearing and disappearing, gathering and scattering, always teasing everyone's endurance, making people's hearts hover on the edge of fear and collapse all the time.

"It's been a long time since I've spent the night on the edge, and I've almost forgotten this mental fear." Shirley of the Hills Chamber of Commerce wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and looked into the fog in disbelief, "I hate this feeling. ”

"I, I, I'm not afraid." Aurora ...... She actually hid behind Monica and Babu, pulling their clothes to block herself, for the first time like a normal little girl, her voice trembled a little, "Roar, roar, things in the fog, don't run, I'll blow you all up in a while, roar~"

Monica patted her head and asked in a low voice, "The first night on the edge?" ”

"That's not it." Aurora said a little dazed, "I remember having similar memories when I was very young, but I've forgotten what happened and how I got back, like that...... Ahhhh ”

Monica sighed, rubbed Aurora's short stiff hair, and didn't ask any more.

"Two of you, it's pretty much the same." Elvis couldn't bear it anymore, nervously observing the dense fog around him, and asked in a low voice, "You said you were looking for something, can you still find it in this situation?" ”

"Huh? What's going on now? Babu asked inexplicably, and at the same time rummaged through Monica's handbag with a very casual look, muttering as she looked, "Isn't it normal now, tsk, I forgot where I put it, I'll look for ......"

"What are you looking for?" Aurora was also intrigued, "Fluorite balls?" ”

"No, this kind of environment fluorite ball can't be useful." Babu continued to rummage through his handbag, "I'm looking for one of the devices we used before. ”

"You walk away for me, I'll never remember where I put my own use." Monica pushed away Babu, who was about to get into her handbag, and glared at him angrily, but at the angle that no one saw, her angry eyes became narrow, snickering and blinking, reaching into the bag and taking it out, she took out the metal shell she had just put in, and complained in her mouth, while stuffing the metal shell into Babu's hand, "Put it in a mess when you run out, you can't find it when you put it away, you have to be followed by someone else to clean it up for you, right, it's only been a few days that it's useless, and I can't find it myself, I tell you, dare to put it in the future, No one is looking for you. ”

"Got it, got it." Acknowledging that it had whetted the appetite of the others, Babu fiddled with the new toy in her hand for a moment, pressed a switch on the surface of the metal case, and the next moment, a bright and blinding pillar of light shot out from the writhing part, illuminating the dark and mysterious edge.

The pillar of light is very special, not only has excellent penetration, but also has a strong light concentration, a pillar of light shoots through the dense fog, and in the fog it goes deep for a distance of twenty or thirty meters before it begins to become hazy. The area illuminated by the pillar of light along the way is much brighter than normal, even if it is only a circle around the perimeter of the pillar.

"Well, it's okay, it still works." Babu held the grip of the main part of the metal shell and twisted his wrist slightly, and the pillar of light seemed to grow on his hand, and as his wrist rotated flexibly, there was nothing to shine on. After almost taking a picture of the surroundings and fully showing the performance of the new toy, Babu pretended to slow down the speed of the shaking pillar of light and handed it to Monica, "Here, the energy is quite sufficient, at least enough lighting for one night tonight." ”

"With this lighting, visibility is not a problem, we can ......" Monica took the hand-held searchlight, heavy and a bit heavy, but the effect was really good, and it looked at the expressions of several people around...... She lowered her head, hiding her expression in the darkness, and said in a strange voice, "Huh? What's wrong with a few of you? Is there anything to be surprised about? ”

No wonder Monica expressed surprise because several businessmen were whispering.

"Hey, this thing is amazing."

"It's kind of like the headlights of a fringe vehicle, don't we have two on our one-person rickshaw?"

"The effect of the lights is not so good, and this kind of penetration is not comparable to the lights at all."

"Not only penetrating power, this thing can go anywhere, it can be lit anywhere, with such a lamp, you don't have to be afraid of encountering a dim environment in the future. If this is replaced by headlights, will you still have to carry a rickshaw around? ”

"Hey, Elvis, should we ......"

"We've traveled a lot of places, but we've never seen this kind of thing, it's scarce, it's not cheap, right......?"

A few people were muttering, just when they heard Monica's inquiry, Elvis gritted his teeth and asked with an embarrassed smile: "Your Excellency Monica, Your Excellency Babu, your lamp is very good, we have never seen it, where did you get it?" ”

"This mobile searchlight?" Monica shook the lamp and said casually, "I brought it out when I left the royal city before, and it's really rare outside." Well, there's nothing special about it, it's just convenient enough. ”

"That, Monica." Elvis rubbed his hands together and asked, "Can you take a closer look?" We have seen too little, we have never seen this kind of fresh props, let us also have a long experience? ”

"Just take it and look at it, it's not a precious thing." Monica casually handed the searchlight to Elvis, "Just don't smash it, otherwise it will be inconvenient to move tonight." ”

"Shhh...... It's beautifully made. The four merchants came together again and studied the strange lamp, the metal shell was strong and thick and beautifully worked, almost like a delicate work of art, the head of the lamp could be twisted at a large angle and fixed enough to be used for lighting in any position, and the transparent lampshade was polished into a polyhedral surface structure, which was most suitable for the passage of light.

"Your Excellency, can we discuss it?" Elvis asked tentatively, "Do you two plan to sell this lamp?" We really want to buy it, so let's think about it. ”

"It's not very convenient." Monica frowned, and said with an unhappy expression, "This thing is not our commodity, it's just a daily necessities for our daily use, if it is sold, what should we do ourselves?" Sorry, we can't agree to this request. ”

"This ......" Listening to what Monica said, there was no room for negotiation at all, Elvis was at a loss, and looked at the Third Highness Aurora who was watching the excitement on the side as if asking for help, and then turned his eyes to Babu for help.

"Hmm......" Babu said to Monica in a 'whisper' as if he had suddenly remembered something, "I remember we brought out a spare one, but we can't transfer this to them, let's use that." ”

"Don't mess around." Monica whispered discontentedly, "I know there's a spare, but ...... They are all used second-hand searchlights, and they can't be priced at all, and it's better not to sell them than to barely price them. ”

"Two, two, you supposedly saved our lives, and we are not in a position to ask for your help anymore." Elvis obviously heard everything, his face was slightly red, and he said embarrassedly, "However, this thing is really helpful to us, and it can help us avoid many dangers in the future and better survive on the edge." So, even if I feel guilty, I can only ask again with a cheeky face, help us, and sell us something. ”

"It's hard for me to do this." Monica's brows furrowed even tighter, and she bit her lip and said, "After spending the day together, I think we can be considered friends, I don't want to make friends money, it will make me feel a sense of indebtedness." ”

"Don't, it's not about making us money, it's about helping us save us." Hearing Monica's tone loosen, Elvis rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "You don't have to feel indebted, but we should thank you both, thank you." ”

"Alas, forget it, I really can't help it." Monica sighed with a headache and said stupidly, "Let me declare first, this thing is not cheap, the price is much higher than you think, you had better think about it before you buy it, and don't regret it, I don't want to be complained about it." ”

"Absolutely not." The four merchants were already in love with the searchlight in their hands, and Elvis gritted his teeth and asked, "Tell me, how much money are you willing to sell this thing." ”

"We're not bloodthirsty profiteers, we're also moral." Monica said expressionlessly, Babu's face next to her was also tense, and she nodded vigorously with the same expressionless face, Monica glared at him before continuing, "That's right, we also have a bottom line, so let's charge you a cost price, how much money you bought at the beginning, how much money will be transferred to you." Wait, I'll do the math...... Well, well, the cost price is not cheap either, fifteen gold coins. ”

"Hey, it's a bit expensive." Several businessmen gasped, but their expressions were still quite moved, and several people got together to discuss for a while, and finally gritted their teeth and stomped their feet, Elvis took out his money bag on the spot, "It's more expensive, let's buy it." ”

"Huh?" Monica was stunned, her mouth half-open for a moment, before she asked tentatively, "Are you sure?" ”

"It's really expensive, but such a convenient lighting equipment can save your life at a critical time, and it's worth it."

"Then you don't have to be in such a hurry." Seeing that Elvis had already started counting the money, Monica said with a smile, "Even if you really want to buy it, you can wait until you go back to trade it, and we won't change our minds temporarily." ”

"If you buy it early, everyone can feel at ease."

Watching Elvis count fifteen gold coins, and there were obviously a lot of them in the money bag, Monica and Babu suddenly felt that maybe they should double the price to be appropriate, but unfortunately, it was too late now, Elvis almost stuffed the gold coins into Monica's hand, and then the four of them held the searchlight and didn't let go, holding the searchlight to shine around, and had a lot of fun. After playing for a long time, the four of them remembered that they were out to help with the coolies tonight, and hurriedly coughed dryly, and put away their lively smiles: "Haha, I'm excited, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, two, what do you need us to do later, please just ask." ”

"Something isn't right." Monica was about to speak, but was stopped by Babu, who motioned to Elvis, who was holding the searchlight, to deflect the beam of light in the direction he indicated, "It seems a little strange there, take a look." ”

The pillar of light quickly turned around, and through the strong light, everyone could clearly see that where Babu was pointing, the ground was covered with a lot of strange patterns, and the patterns were dense and dense, although I couldn't understand the meaning of it, but it always revealed a cold and calm atmosphere.

"It's ...... What? ”
