It wasn't that Thorn hadn't thought about whether to catch up with Ye Qingyan just now, and warned her to cover up her own special and avoid harming the others in the mechanical seminar. But this thought was only fleeting, and he was extinguished by himself—if he did so, it would be tantamount to exposing himself to the light again, which was really unwise.

Whether this is a clear reference to the government or a wealthy businessman who has dealings with Xinhan, he is a strong man he can't compete with, and as a trader in his previous life, he will never put his safety in the hands of others - whether this other person is a woman he admires or not.

Thorn thought for a moment, and immediately thought of a better way.

"I hope the government hasn't discovered her abnormality yet, and the warning is still a warning, but it has to be done in a different way."

Out of the watch department store, Jing Zithorn just saw Ye Qingyan leaving in a black steam car, looking at the side face of the beauty sitting in the back seat from a distance through the car window, and only felt that there were some mixed feelings in his heart.

There is longing and admiration before recovering memory, there is also calm self-control after recovering memory, and because of this girl's practice of magic, the next storm that will sweep the whole city is likely to affect her helplessness.

The steam car carrying the beauty quickly disappeared at the end of the street, he looked at the end of the road where the beauty disappeared in a daze, and only retracted his gaze for a long time, sighed, closed his eyes and recalled the change in Ye Qingyan's appearance in his memory.

After a while, he came to the conclusion that although Ye Qingyan was beautiful before awakening his memory, she was not as beautiful as she is now, and she must have been in the same tune of aura that she had just completed recently.

"Depending on the method being practiced, the practitioner's inner transformation will be different, and the reflection will vary from method to method in appearance. Those who practice evil spells look gloomy and eerie; Those who practice swordsmanship have a cold and determined will. Even if they don't use mana spells, as long as they don't try to hide it, transcendents such as warlocks and wizards can completely recognize each other, and in the words of their previous lives, this is because they have a different style of painting from ordinary people, so they can be seen at a glance. ”

Thorn turned around, walked to the window next to a shop next to him, and looked at his own image in the mirror of the store through the window, the image of a beautiful young man with red lips and white teeth in dark clothes, and thought about the appearance of Ye Qingyan he saw before:

"And those who practice spells that are particularly rooted in the "Kan Li, Water, Fire, and Sword Qi" are often reflected on the outside, and their skin is gradually crystal white, and the divine light in their eyes is hidden. Looking at the appearance of the leader, although ordinary people only feel ashamed to see such a stunning beauty, but in the eyes of the warlock, it is likely that they will immediately realize that the person in front of them has practiced the magic. ”

looked at himself in the mirror again, but the appearance of a rich boy was not too eye-catching, and the thorny heart was slightly relieved:

"I'm the same, yesterday was just the first time to practice, and now I don't see that the changes are too big, but with the assistance of the system, the progress of magic practice must be far beyond ordinary people, and if I continue to practice a few times, my appearance may be too noticeable. It is necessary to make some preparations while there is not much change now. ”

After taking care of the thorns, he turned around and entered another department store specializing in cosmetics.

Half an hour later, Thorn walked out carrying a small bag of men's toiletries. He touched the only two silver horns left in his pocket, and silently calculated in his heart:

"I went out with a total of 24 silver horns and some copper, this outfit cost 19 silver horns, cosmetics cost 3 more, there are more than 80 silver horns left in the room, and then go buy a sword weapon, be prepared."

Waving to the tricycle drivers parked on the street, one of them immediately stepped on the tricycle and asked, "Master, where are you going?" ”

Thorn stepped forward and asked, "Do you know the way to buy a good Abilee's cane?" ”

When the middle-aged coachman heard this, he hurriedly smiled and said:

"Yes, yes, a few kilometers north from here, there are many shops owned by Abilite merchants, and there must be walking sticks for sale that the young master wants. Young master, what do you think of 20 coppers? ”

"Yes. But I'm going back to the hotel to put things first, the hotel is not far from here, you wait for me downstairs, how about 25 copper in total for this trip? Thorn asked.

"Okay!" The coachman replied briskly.

When he arrived at the hotel where he was staying, he got out of the car first, gave the coachman ten coppers, and explained, "Wait for me to come down." ”

Then he carried two handbags into the inn, walked quickly upstairs into the room, put away the bags containing mechanical clothing and men's cosmetics, and took out from the suitcase a money bag containing more than eighty silver horns and an iron badge, and put them all into the inner pocket of the trench coat.

I went downstairs, walked quickly to the coachman who was waiting in place, got into the car and ordered, "Let's go." ”

The coachman immediately agreed, and drove the thorns to the north of the business district, through the streets and alleys, and after half an hour's walk, the buildings on both sides of the street gradually changed into the form of towering spires and pointed arches.

The coachman stopped in front of several Gothic-style high-rise buildings on his tricycle, turned around and gasped, and said, "Young master, here we are, these buildings are full of Abili merchants' shops." ”

Thorn looked intently, saw that what he said was true, then nodded, got out of the car, and handed the rest of the fare to the driver.

When you enter the Gothic-style building, you can see a dazzling variety of shops, and through the window, you can see that there are all clothing and clocks imported from the Western Continent.

Thorn looked left and right, and entered a shop with various walking sticks on the counter.

There were a few Western-looking clerks in this shop, and when they saw the customer, a middle-aged man with blond hair and blue eyes immediately stepped forward, and he said in Zhuxia dialect, which was not too fluent, with a bit of bluntness:

"Hello this guest! I don't know, guest, what do you want to buy? ”

Thorn looked at the various canes placed in the store, different lengths and thicknesses, but all of them were exquisitely made, some with smooth and shiny surfaces, and some with dull textures; The heads of various canes are finely carved, ranging from gilded eagle-headed armrests to spherical shapes. Judging from the perspective of the game in his previous life, it is indeed a real Abilia.

Thorn walked around a few times, looked at it a few times, and suddenly looked up at this person and whispered, "Cane sword, is there one?" ”

When the middle-aged man in a Western-style double-breasted coat heard this, he was stunned, and immediately replied in a categorical whisper:

"Guest, in the Great Chong Dynasty, any weapon is a prohibited commodity, we are, legal merchants, and will never violate the laws of the country!"

Thorn smiled and said, "Look at this." Then he pulled out an iron badge from the inner pocket of his trench coat and handed it over.

The middle-aged man took it, and at a glance, the front of the badge was an eagle's head, and the back was a gear, and he was shocked, and slowly looked up at the thorns, and saw that this was a rich boy with red lips and white teeth, and then said: "Guest, please wait, I want to take a closer look." ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked to the counter, took out his glasses and put them on, and looked at them carefully. The other clerks were also shocked when they saw it, and one of them, a middle-aged woman with blond hair and blue eyes, took a few steps forward, went to the side of Thorn and whispered, "Wait a minute." ”

There is a door! It seems that this shop happens to have smuggled goods!

Thorns' hearts were relieved. The iron badge was taken from the table of the Dead Governor during the slaughter of the Red Chamber that night, the eagle head on the front symbolizes the royal family of the United Kingdom of Abilee, and the gear on the back symbolizes the Industrial Revolution that originated in the Kingdom of Abilee. When he saw the badge, he thought it might be useful, so he put it away.

Combined with the conversation between the two patrol officers overheard that night, this badge probably belonged to the owner of the clothing store, Thorn thought secretly.

It is said that the Great Chong Dynasty established by the wolf barbarians is a centralized dynasty, and the most taboo is that the people have force - whether this force is a weapon or a spell.

However, the countries of the Western Continent are all decentralized societies, and due to the game of power and checks and balances of all parties, the control of civilian force is not tight. Of course, there are also controls on the inheritance of witchcraft, but it is not so strict, and weapons and the like are even more relaxed.

Of course, most of these overseas businessmen come to Dachong to do business, and most of them are law-abiding businessmen, but there are also some people who want to abide by Dachong's laws on the surface, but secretly sell some contraband.

According to the information released by the players in the game, these people do not admit it at all in the face of the raw customers, and they are also afraid that they will encounter plainclothes patrol officers to fish, so if the buyer wants to buy the corresponding thing, he must have a certificate of identity, and even with this certificate, they must carefully observe the image of the buyer, whether there is the public temperament of the people in the mansion of the great chongguan.

"Fortunately, thanks to this badge, it's really thanks to Fang Yuanzhi's dead ghost."

Looking at the dignified expression of this middle-aged man in the West, a relaxed smile appeared at the corner of Thorn's mouth.

After a long time, the blonde middle-aged man walked over with the badge, handed it back to the thorns, and asked in a cautious whisper:

"Guest, need, what kind of cane sword?"

Thorn walked to the corner of the shop, took out a slender wooden cane with a simple shape with a original handle, handed it to the merchant and asked in a low voice:

"Something like this, slender and sturdy, how much does it cost?"

The middle-aged man took it, looked down, was silent for a moment, and quoted: "60 silver horns." ”

Thorn was silent for a moment, he deliberately took a simple-looking one, which was so expensive, but he still nodded and said:

"Yes, I'm going to get the goods now, and then I won't see you before."

It's about his safety, and this sword must be bought.

The middle-aged man nodded: "Wait a minute." ”

After speaking, he gestured to the clerk who had just walked over. The clerk nodded, and immediately walked into the depths of the store.

A short time later, the man returned, handing over an identical cane.

Thorn took a look, there was a thin gap between the handle and the body of the cane, he looked left and right, the middle-aged man immediately understood, stretched out his hand, and led Thorn to the visual blind spot of the corridor outside.

Thorn looked around again, and seeing that no one could see this, he immediately pulled it out with force, and a slender single-edged sword was immediately revealed.

With a finger brush, one of the blades had acid-etched frosted marks, which allowed the blade to bite more closely with the shaft; On the other side, near the back of the blade, there is a slender blood groove. Then gently pull the knuckle sword to test the strength of the overall sword body.

It didn't take long for Thorn to nod, take out the money bag and hand it over.

The middle-aged man took it, quickly walked to the counter, quickly counted out 60 silver horns, and then returned the half-empty money bag to Thornthorn. Then, whispering:

"Guest, you, never, have ever been here!"

Thorn smiled slightly: "Of course." ”

After saying that, he ignored the man, and like a gentleman in the United Kingdom of Abile, he put his cane on the ground and walked away quickly.
