Chapter 877: Being Smart and Being Mistaken by Being Smart (Second Update)
"Wow - please give this gentleman some cheers, congratulations on his success in winning ten silver coins. Oh, and congratulations on not losing the stall, haha...... Just kidding, of course. Don't worry, since I dare to put my stall out, I can definitely afford to lose, and I can just have fun. So, is there any warrior who wants to go the extra mile......"
In the midst of the drumming noise, Xia Wei'an simply raised her hand: "I, I want to try." ”
Seeing this, the thin stall owner was immediately overjoyed, and said in his heart that this ploy had been tried repeatedly, and subconsciously looked at Tang En, who was standing next to Xia Wei'an: "Oh, there is another brave gentleman, I hope you can also have good luck...... Uh, is this young lady? You want to try it too?"
"Haha......" laughed loudly, and the thin stall owner looked at Xia Wei'an, who handed over five silver coins and looked obviously dissatisfied, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry...... So, let's welcome this brave young lady to the darts challenge. ”
The business object was changed to Xia Weian, and the thin stall owner was naturally happy. Not to mention whether the woman's strength is enough, let's just say that Xia Wei'an's posture of having to be supported by someone when she walks, he feels that the five silver coins in his pocket are already too proper.
Of course, if he had noticed Donn's gaze at this time, he might not have been so happy...... Glancing sympathetically at the thin stall owner, Don took the five darts and handed them to Vivian Shavien, who was standing in front of the prescribed line.
Shaking his head, Don naturally knew that the forbidden effect on Xia Wei'an's body was constantly decreasing, although he was still not good at it, he still had the strength to deliver a few darts. What's more, at the same time, her realm was rapidly improving—it was the realm of an empty-level powerhouse!
Don already knew about the trickiness in this dart shooting, and he knew very well that it was not as simple as it seemed on the surface. But this is to divide people, and ordinary vindictive martial artists may plant. But a quasi-air-level powerhouse. Even if this quasi-space-level powerhouse is not good at concealing weapons...... All right. This is indeed bullying, right......
Sure enough, after squeezing the dart in her hand, Xia Wei'an slowly raised her arm, flicked her wrist imperceptibly, and with a flicker, the white tail feathers flashed and disappeared, and they were firmly nailed to the red heart of the wooden target two feet away.
"Uh...... Hit?"
"Hit! Hit! Hit the first dart!"
"Wow...... That's too lucky......"
There was an uproar, and the crowd that seemed careless just now suddenly became lively. Cheers came and went. Of course, everyone who had been watching here for a while naturally didn't think that this critically ill young woman was better than those big men before, they just thought that it was Xia Wei'an's luck enough. Immediately shouted 'Come on, beauties, dart again' or something good-natured, which caused bursts of laughter.
However, when the thin stall owner accurately hit the bull's-eye with the dart, his expression froze instantly, as if he sensed that something was wrong, and looked Xia Wei'an and Tang En up and down in disbelief.
As early as when the dart was shot, Don smiled and clapped his palms to show his appreciation and encouragement. He didn't show any other looks. Of course, it's a surefire thing. What else do you need to make? Is it unexpected? That's too pretend......
Xia Weien still looked interested, but she struggled to raise her arms, which made people look worried. However, the shot was very decisive and casual, just flicking his wrist, and the dart obediently nailed to the bull's-eye.
Doo!
Unhurried, calm and casual. A short moment later, looking at the four darts nailed to the bullseye in a circle, the crowd that had been cheering before fell silent.
At this point, even a fool can see that it can't be luck. It can only be that this sick and crooked woman does have good skills.
Smiling and picking up the last dart, Xia Weien turned her head to look at Done, "Do you want to try it?"
"Forget it. Don shook his head with a smile, "It's almost there, others still have to do business." ”
It's just a game. Maybe these five gold coin rewards are the stall owner's income for a few days, but Tang En and the others naturally don't look down on it. That is, when I go out shopping, I encounter it occasionally, and I play with it like ordinary people, and it is impossible to do things absolutely. As for what Xia Weian just said to teach a lesson, it was undoubtedly a joke. After all, if she really wants to teach someone a lesson, it's not just about money......
Seeing that Xia Wei'an consciously stopped, Don turned his head to look at the thin stall owner with a wooden look, apologized for spreading his hands, and opened his mouth to say: "That ......"
"Wait a minute!" As if awakened by a sudden start, the thin stall owner took a deep look at the two of them, waved his hand again and again, and turned to rush towards the wooden target. Then, in the thoughts of everyone thinking about 'whether they want to cheat', they quickly pulled out the four darts nailed to the bull's-eye, stepped back and explained calmly, "The bull's-eye is too small, in order to avoid interference, pull out the other darts first." You can now keep shooting. ”
"Ha, that's good!" "It's supposed to be like this, the boss is ......" "Come on, beauty, ......"
In the midst of the praise, Tang En squinted at the bull's-eye, smiled, and turned his head to look at Xia Wei'an: "It's all like this, or forget about this last dart." ”
"Hmph, I could have forgotten it. With a light snort, Xia Wei Yan pursed the corners of her mouth and said very firmly, "But not now!"
Holding his forehead, Don shook his head and sighed: "This is really ...... If you don't die, you won't die!"
As I said earlier, it's just a game, and the two don't really care. But now it's different, the thin stall owner pulled out the four darts, seemingly for their sake, but this can hide from everyone present, but not from Don and Xia Weian. There should be a mystery in this wooden target, and the thin stall owner just pulled out the dart, and his body was in front of the wooden target, but he changed the bull's-eye......
The reason why it can be seen is very simple, that is, the marks on the bullseye are wrong. The current bullseye material is definitely not ordinary wood, if I am not mistaken, it should be an ironwood bull's-eye.
As the name suggests, ironwood is a hardwood comparable to iron. This type of wood is relatively rare in the south, but it is ubiquitous in the north. In order to resist the severe snowstorms of the year, the people of the north like to build their houses out of this sturdy wood.
With a bullseye made of this material, even if the dart is still accurate, it will bounce off immediately after hitting the bull's-eye. In the eyes of others, it is naturally not enough strength and no flaws.
For now, though. The move of the thin stall owner is clever but is mistaken by cleverness. Charvien wanted to give up this last dart. But now I realize this little trick. How can she endure jealousy and hatred?
Slowly raise your hand, shake your wrist, and swish...... With a slight whistling that was different from the previous darts, with a bang, the wooden target shook up and down sharply, and the tip of the dart blade was completely nailed into the bullseye of ironwood, leaving only a few white tail feathers to tremble slightly in the wind.
Turning around, he turned to the thin stall owner who was glaring and his mouth open. simply stretched out his white palm: "Give money!"
......
After a while, looking at the chaotic streets behind him, and listening to the words such as "pay back the money" and "kill these liars" from time to time, Don and Xia Weien glanced at each other, and couldn't help laughing, and couldn't help laughing.
"Haha, that's so interesting...... What did the man say, haha...... He's going to kill you, he's going to kill you...... Mr. Assassin, haha......"
"I didn't see that the stall owner spoke quite accurately, and it became a prophecy. This stall was really taken by us, haha......"
"Haha. It's obviously useless, right...... It's a pity that the hardware coin reward didn't get it, and I also put in five silver coins, and I lost it......"
"It's okay, if you can see this scene, it's worth the ticket price......"
"Haha......"
......
The reward of hardware coins has indeed not been recovered. When Xia Wei'an stretched out his hand to ask for money, the other party decisively cheated, and the big man who was the previous one walked out of the crowd with a few unkind looking gangsters, and pointed at Tang En very arrogantly and told him to get out, otherwise he would be killed......
The result was obvious, under the command of Xia Wei'an's shouting, Don took down these thugs by dividing them by two, and then grabbed the thin stall owner who wanted to run away when he saw that the situation was not good, and prepared to get the bounty back. As a result, I searched the stall owner and found only a few scattered silver coins, which added up to just over one gold coin......
Obviously, this is what the other party earned when it opened today. These people didn't prepare hardware rewards at all, and they completely beat the idea of the white wolf with empty gloves.
Seeing this, Xia Wei was furious, and she was amused by herself, and immediately exposed the deception of these people loudly, and smashed the wooden target to find out two different bullseyes hidden inside. In the face of the facts, the people who were defrauded of money were immediately angry, and they immediately surrounded and kicked without Tang and the two of them......
Finally stopped laughing, listening to the grim police whistle in the distance, Tang En and the two looked at each other and smiled, and left the chaotic scene unhurriedly.
The street couldn't stay, and after crossing a few small roads, the two of them stepped into the commercial block next door again. At this moment, suddenly,
"Don?" A voice of surprise and joy came, and Tang En subconsciously turned his head, and saw a middle-aged man with curly hair on the right, walking towards this side with an excited face.
Xia Wei was stunned when she heard this, and looked at Don En suspiciously, meaning that you have an acquaintance here, can he see through your disguise?
Tang En was also slightly stunned, but then found that the other party was not looking for him, turned his head to look to the left, and saw a slightly chubby man turn his head in surprise, looking at the curly-haired man who was striding over, his face was also happy, and he opened his arms to meet him.
"Robin?haha, I haven't seen you in years, why are you here?"
"Just passing by, I'm about to leave, I didn't expect you to be still in this city. ”
"Nonsense, my home is here, where can I go if I'm not here? Go, when you meet me, don't think about leaving today, drink and go, it's really ...... We haven't seen each other in over 10 years......"
"Oops...... Don't push it, I'm really something......"
"What could be more important than our reunion......?
......
This is also one of the so-called four joys of life. Looking at the two people who pushed and shoved away, Don En smiled and sighed. Although I felt that this was really a coincidence, I didn't perceive any malice, and the words and deeds of the two people didn't see the slightest problem, so they didn't care. After all, there are still a lot of surnames in the other world that start with Tang characters......
After a pause, he looked at the surrounding environment again, the bustling commercial street, the restaurants and shops were lined up, the bustling crowd, the bargaining was endless, several aristocratic carriages roared past from the aristocratic lane, and the coachman waved the horsewhip magically......
"What's wrong?"
"Oh, nothing...... Let's go, let's continue shopping. Shaking his head, secretly saying that he was too careful, Tang En helped Xia Weian into the crowd and gradually disappeared.
