Chapter 16 A thousand gold horses, a hundred gold for sale

Oster was worried about what to do with the horse. It's a pity to throw it away, and it's not appropriate to kill it.

This is a real thousand-mile horse, loyal and reliable, and humane, and has a little emotion after a day of riding. After thinking about it, Oster decided to let it last use its residual heat and sell it.

But if you don't know the place well, where can you find a store that dares to accept this horse?

At the other end of the road, on the back of the stone beneath the road sign, Oster found an advertisement drawn in lime hastily.

Although the drawings and handwriting are crooked, it is not difficult to distinguish a few key words such as "mount, second-hand, conscience", and the directions and distances are also clearly marked.

So Oster rode into the trail, climbed over the mountains, and after several forks, entered a hidden ravine. After searching for a long time, I found this shop in the middle of nowhere, which deals with second-hand goods and mounts. The shop is called "Wangshan Pawnshop".

Judging from the stake bunker at the entrance, the security guard standing guard with a sharp knife outside the shop, or the tattoos and scars of the owner, this is a law-abiding shop that does serious business.

Sure enough, the boss with a scarred face didn't ask about the origin of the horses, and wrote them down directly in the ledger. Oster said, "How about the authentic golden horse, I'll sell it for 100 gold, you can't give me a VIP membership or something?" ”

The boss said, "A horse is a good horse, and the brand on the neck can be burned." The problem is that it is difficult to make a move, and we have to wait for a few months to be mixed in New Mali. Now the market is not good, and it is a big expense to raise it in the past few months, this kind of thoroughbred, eat some miscellaneous grains and it will give you a tummy......"

Oster's face sank, "It's all at this price, if you want to bargain again, I'll find a home." ”

The boss looked at the horse carefully, and finally scratched his head and said, "Okay, you wait, I'll go get you the money." ”

As soon as the boss walked on his front feet, something in his crotch suddenly rustled, and the voice rang out;

"Hey, Oster, can you hear me? ……”

Oster was taken aback, it was the voice of Solarius. He'd almost forgotten that there was such a thing as a communicator;

"Recently, the organization has issued a mission, and we are tracking a new movement of the Titan, so I'm sorry that we didn't bother to contact you. You okay? My doppelganger senses the energy fluctuations of the Book of Sargeras, are you in conflict with people? If it's Kenrito's mage, don't pester with them, I'll send someone to support you right away......"

Listening to the voice in the crotch of his trousers, Oster was depressed; If there was a sudden movement while doing something like that, wouldn't it scare the girl to death?

"I'm so good, why did I call again, don't you say it's okay and don't take the initiative to contact?"

"Hahaha, you are our important guardian, your safety is related to the fate of the whole universe, it's okay, please pay attention to protect yourself. Remember, despite the blessing of the Sashu, this is not really a weapon, but a key that guards secrets that no one knows. Its energy is limited, and once it runs out, you will temporarily lose the protection of the power of the Guardians......"

"Don't talk about it, I'll have to wait until I agree to answer the call in the future......" Seeing that the boss pushed the door and came back, Oster didn't want others to see that he was talking to his crotch, so he directly "pinched" the communication.

The boss took the money bag, but he still saw a little bit and sighed, "Awesome, brother, you can talk to that thing?" ”

Oster's scalp tingled and said, "This is ventriloquism, it's practiced, you don't care." What about money? ”

When the boss came to the counter, he put the bag on the table, took out a gold coin from it, and said to Oster, "I just said it, 1 gold, and put it away." ”

Oster was greatly astonished, and said, "How did a hundred gold, which I didn't say, become one gold?" ”

The boss shook his head and said, "No, what I just said is 1 gold." Don't believe you, ask my brothers. ”

Outside the door, several security guards with knives immediately pushed the door in and said, "What's the matter, big brother." ”

Oster had no choice but to point to a shield hanging on the opposite wall and asked the boss, "How much is that shield?" ”

The boss didn't know what he meant, and replied, "It's less than 1G, what's wrong?" ”

Oster raised his hand and unleashed an exorcism spell - stealing the rest of Landis's skills - punching holes in the shield and the wall behind it. Then he said to the boss, "I bought this, and the horse's money is worth a piece, 99 gold, what do you think?" ”

The boss hurriedly waved his hand and told the younger brothers to go back, saying, "Shaoxia said earlier, you look at you in rags, you don't bring a guy when you go out alone, let me tell you that the world is not peaceful now." In this way, 100 gold is a lot of money, and I have prepared a set of leather armor for you, and don't ask for the broken shield, and give you a steel short sword. It's all mine, don't be polite to me. ”

With a money bag, new leather armor and a short sword pinned to his waist, he finally looked like an adventurer. Oster left happily, and the distant Scar boss was still waving at the door, "Come and see if you have time!" ”

As he walked, he remembered what keys, secrets, and energies Solarius had been rambling about just now, and he was a little concerned.

Especially the last sentence, what does it mean to lose the power of the Guardian when you run out? But after thinking about it, whatever, doing tasks by himself has always skipped the text interface, and it's right to fight monsters and get rewards.

Leave the Wangshan pawnshop and return to the main road. After resting for the night at the roadside inn, the next morning, Oster, who had the money, naturally stopped walking, found a station, paid the fare, and boarded a train.

Yes, that's right, the kind that runs on the rails, also known as trains. There were three wagons, but the front of the wagon was not mounted, and a team of packers pulled it in front.

In fact, when playing games in the previous life, Oster was already strange, this world even has steam tanks, airships and subways, and it is the most unreasonable thing to have never seen a train.

As for the use of horse-draws, it is not like a parallel time and space because of the fear of destroying feng shui and disturbing the imperial tomb, etc., it is purely too costly. Recently, the overall economy of the Storm Kingdom has been sluggish, and the disaster in the west has made it worse, and many mine owners have made extra money by pulling passengers in the cars that were originally used to pull mines. Passenger trains are very light and naturally do not need to install expensive magically powered locomotives.

The carriage was crowded with many people, mostly decent businessmen and travelers, and it was the commuter shuttle bus of this world.

Auster sat in his seat with mixed feelings, a few months ago he was crammed into a subway car to commute to work, and a few months later he was still riding the train in a magical fantasy world. This is the same as Tang Seng riding a motorcycle and the Queen Mother wearing a mask, which is really a little difficult.

In addition, the scene is somewhat familiar, especially since the last car is a dining car, cooking some kind of stewed meat similar to a hot pot. There are horse-drawn trains and hot pots, and now there are bandits.
