Chapter 189: Bredians (First Meeting)

Akiri changed into the beige dress that Ou Lei brought back, and used the "makeover" prop to return to the appearance when she went out in the morning.

The red ghost changed into a blue skirt inlaid with white lace, and the snow-white skin set off the whiteness and brightness.

Ou Lei's clothes have not changed, but he has changed into a new pair of boots, and it can be seen that he is in a very good mood.

In order not to attract attention, Akiri gave herself a new name: Eve.

Ou Lei hailed a carriage on the street, and when the carriage drove to the entrance of the ghost alley, Qiu Li and the red ghost were already waiting there, each wearing a hat and looking like two noble girls, out for a stroll.

The carriage drove straight down Coolie Street to Downtown Avenue, and then from Downtown Avenue to Second Avenue, and after turning a corner, you saw Waterport Lane.

During the day, there were many more people in this alley, and Akiri saw the familiar "wine bottle tavern".

"Stop!" Akiri said, she wanted to come down and take a walk.

The coachman skillfully pulled over the car, and Ou Lei respectfully led the autumn pear down, and the red ghost did not like this set of etiquette, and jumped down on his own, his movements were smooth and graceful.

caused an idler next to him to whistle.

"Red Oni, don't be angry." Qiu Li hurriedly held the red ghost's hand, really afraid that this aunt and grandmother would ignore it and kill the Quartet.

There were all kinds of "wanted notices" on the walls on both sides of the tavern, and it was too dark last night, so she just glanced at it, and there happened to be a local Thongore next to her, just for him to interpret it for herself.

"This is the most wanted criminal on the list, he doesn't have a name, I just know that he puts a tulip every time he commits a crime." Ou Lei said, pointing to the tallest piece of paper.

"That's why he's called Tulip." He leaned closer and whispered to Akiri, "I heard that he stole the Bishop's underwear, but these are rumors. ”

"In second place is an organization called the Shrine Maiden Association, and their stories are often told in the slums."

Akiri's heart moved, and she remembered the first time she met Udora, she had said that they called her a shrine maiden, and maybe there was a connection between them.

Ou Lei said in a low voice: "But these two wanted warrants are false, who knows what they look like, the bounty hunter values the following." ”

Qiu Li looked at the long row of wanted notices with portraits below and nodded, indeed, instead of capturing the ethereal legendary characters, it is better to directly catch a bandit with a name and surname, and the bounty is more realistic.

There are also many announcements that have been eroded by the wind and rain, and are so blurred that they can't see anything clearly.

"Let's go." Akiri looked at the red ghost who was getting impatient, and hurriedly greeted Ou Lei.

The three of them continued along Waterport Alley, and ten minutes later, at the corner of the alley, they saw a deep porch, and the sound of striking metal came from inside.

"That's the old blacksmith Mace's shop." Ole took the lead and pushed open the half-wooden door in front of the porch.

After Akiri and the red ghost walked in, Ou Lei let go of his hand and quickly followed.

Passing through the narrow corridor was a courtyard, with a towering chimney, and an iron shed in the yard, where two shirtless men were tapping on an iron block, one left and one right, and the temperature here was probably several degrees higher than outside.

Tyuxia came out of the back room, she held a basket of charcoal in both hands, and her expression was stunned when she saw the three of them, this man she had only seen in the morning, and when Ou Lei saw her, he politely took off his hat and saluted.

Mace, the old blacksmith, put down his hammer and let his apprentice, young Mika, continue to quench the iron.

The old blacksmith's hair was extremely short and gray, his skin was dark, and he was covered in sweat, as if he had been salvaged from water, and the corners of the courtyard were full of all kinds of semi-finished products.

"Honored guest, do you want to build any weapons?" Mace is very eye-catching, these three people, obviously not the nearby farmers, especially these two ladies, fair-skinned are not like words, these days, the nobles come to the blacksmith shop to do nothing but make weapons.

Seeing that Mace was already greeting, Qiucia took care of herself and put the bamboo basket beside the fire, and as soon as she bent down, took an iron rake, and pulled out the charcoal that had burned out of the stove, and in a short time, her face was stained with a layer of dirt by ashes.

Qiuli's heart tightened, this was the first time they had faced each other, and the Qiuxia in front of her was obviously older than she remembered.

Probably the time here has been several years, but he has only been able to bear it for a few months, Qiu Li's emotions are complicated, watching Qiu Xia busy by herself.

She originally thought that the NPCs in each copy were just a game relationship with her, however, at this moment, in the blacksmith shop, she looked at the busy woman in front of her who had the same face and name as herself, and her heart seemed to have overturned the seasoning, and she had mixed tastes.

Ole was describing the sword he was going to build to Mace, and the red ghost curiously walked over to the fire and watched the apprentice quench it over and over again.

She wasn't curious about Qiuxia, she knew before she came that there was a woman who looked very similar to Qiuli, and after glancing at it, she lost interest.

Qiu Li held back the surging emotions in her heart, and finally walked over, she took off her hat, leaned down to look at Qiu Xia and asked, "My name is Eve, you are Qiu Xia?" I heard you know how to fenc? ”

Qiuxia looked up sharply and saw that Qiuli was a strange woman, so she straightened up and realized that she was about the same height as Qiuli, "Yes, I know fencing, Mays taught me." ”

Hearing this, Mace on the side turned his head and smiled: "Her talent is very good, and I am no longer as good as her." ”

In Mace's heart, if Qiuxia gains the appreciation of the noblewoman, it will also be a way out for her, and maybe she will gain power and soar to the top of her life.

Cami, the apprentice who was striking the iron, suddenly stopped what he was doing, he turned his head to look at Tyucia, muttering in a small voice, and after being glared at fiercely by Mace, he raised the hammer again and continued to strike the iron.

"I want to learn fencing, I'm trying to get a tutor, and money isn't an issue if you want to." Akiri explained softly.

Tyucia was stunned, but refused without hesitation, she was still a wanted criminal, and dealing with noblewomen was not a good idea for her.

Mace was stunned for a moment, walked over quickly, and said loudly: "I agreed for her, isn't it better to be a teacher for this lady than to be a hunter?" ”

"A few hunters can come back in one piece! Don't be stubborn, you kid, you have to listen to me this time. ”

Qiu Li smiled and said, "It's okay, Miss Qiuxia, you can come to me whenever you change your mind, Ou Lei will find a store in the city in the near future, and we will open a bakery." ”

Originally, she planned to open a restaurant, but after looking around, she realized that in this era, bakeries and taverns were the mainstream, and bakeries could sell drinks and food such as coffee and sandwiches.

It is more in line with the life of the locals.

After all, the aristocrats had their own cooks, and the poor would not eat out at all.
