Chapter 15 I'll Buy You
There was still more than half a way to the magic capital, and a few of us were really tired and panicked, so we came to a village to rest.
This is a famous stone demon kiln, because it is full of honest stone people, and the whole village is based on gems as the main source of income, but they produce some inferior gems there, and they can't sell much steel.
The metal ore of hell is scarce, and usually a war consumes nearly a decade of a country's storage.
Therefore, in hell as opposed to peace, perhaps the origin god did it intentionally.
Of course, none of this has anything to do with me, after all, in our opinion, the less the war, the better, and people all cherish their own lives, and this does not include those extreme militants.
"Charlie, long time no see!" a stone demon came up, his face was covered with rugged rocks, he looked very strange, but there was some melancholy in his eyes, this thing's name was Olympus, and he was the mine foreman of the village chief.
I took out my treasured Miga, handed it to him, and lit it with a flint stone: "Olympus, long time no see, you are a lot more burly. ”
Olympus didn't care about my ridicule at all, after all, we had known each other for another half a century, and we were still in the tavern at the beginning, and we almost met after a fight.
"Say, what's the matter with this time, I know it's not good for you to come. Olympus took a puff of his round miga and said with a smile.
The second dog who I will beg for food in the future shouted, but along the way, it ate a lot of things: "We want to rest here for a few days and prepare to go to the magic capital." ”
"It's not peaceful there. Olympus frowned and sighed, the smoke mixed with his bad breath was very unpleasant.
"It doesn't matter if it's too peaceful or not, I'm going to my sister-in-law's house. I waved my hand.
Olympus looked at me meaningfully: "I really don't know how your beautiful and virtuous Anne can have such an unsuccessful brother as you, is it that you have no money and want to eat?"
I chose to be silent about this sentence, and said for a long time: "No, it's just to take my friend to see." "I handed Olympus a small piece of steel.
"Easy to do!" Olympus' eyes lit up, and he groped around his waist for a while, and then pulled out a sign with a stone inlaid with an inferior gemstone.
"This is ......," I said, holding the sign.
"Our guest-only room, it's low season so pick you up for a few days. Olympus looked at Xue Leng and stared at him for a long time.
And Xue Leng's murderous aura faintly emanated, who knew that Olympus said: "The cloaks of your friends are so good-looking, where did you get them?"
I knew that Xue Leng's expression must be very embarrassed at this time, so I relieved the siege and said: "It's our gladiatorial arena's clothes, but you should have heard that the owner of the gladiatorial arena Watson was killed, and now the murderer's whereabouts are unknown, we really have nowhere to go, so go to the magic capital to have a look." ”
Obviously, Olympus believed my words, and I liked dealing with stone demons because of their straightforwardness.
"Go, go, I'll have someone go to your arena in a few days and buy a few sets. Olympus shook his hand, and the miga in his hand was almost there, but he still reluctantly took a big puff before spitting it out.
Without further ado, we went straight to the huge room, which was clean compared to the others, with clean beds, tables, chairs, and a set of thatched huts and showers.
This time we were very lucky, there were two sets of rooms, I naturally monopolized one by myself, and Xue Leng and their young couple squeezed into one.
But my heart is very lonely, blood spirit, I have loved people for a hundred years, from the day I became sensible, I fantasized about being with her, and later when I learned that she was a goddess, I still couldn't change my love.
But what she said and what she showed a few days ago made me so sad, and every time I thought about it, I felt a faint pain in my heart.
I pulled down the light blue quilt and tried to cover my body, which was more than two meters long, but the quilt was square and my feet were exposed.
Legend has it that Modern is a race that has been cursed by the Origin God, so if I haven't killed anyone now, will I be cursed?
Just as I was thinking nonsense, there was a knock on the door, I opened it and saw that it was a good-looking half-blood, her deep aura should have part of the blood of the black devil, and the charming temperament on her body, I concluded that it was the blood of the magic nobles unique to the magic capital.
But the woman was dirty, and her hair was very unkempt, and she was obviously like a slave here.
Slaves are usually outcasts of the clansmen, without any status, and they are very cheap, with my current financial resources, I can buy three or four, but the innate inferiority of slaves is a headache.
Therefore, most people will not buy slaves, after all, no one wants to buy a person to make the originally tidy home more and more messy.
"Come in. "I didn't say anything.
I glanced at the woman, her figure was very good, and she was very convex and warped, but unfortunately her body was very dirty.
"Put it here. "I saw the woman with a pot of food in her hand, yes, yes, because those stone people eat stones, so for those of us who have to eat and sustain life, they are only responsible for not letting you starve to death.
Of course, the stone devil has a nature, that is, he is very addicted to alcohol.
But the woman was apparently new to the city, and one accidentally spilled the pot of food on the floor.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" the woman looked a little panicked.
I did it and hurriedly said, "Forget it, you go out, I'll come here." ”
I didn't want a filthy woman to affect my appetite, and luckily the bowl was sealed, and the food didn't come out, only another bowl of soup spilled on the floor.
The woman looked at my bowl and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and immediately I felt very funny: "Come here." I beckoned.
"Yes. "Women appear to be very well-behaved, but it is more appropriate to call them servile.
I said, "You have a soup and go take a bath, I'm bored now, the couple next door is estimated to be sweet, you can chat with me." ”
"But I don't have any clothes...... "The woman seemed scared of me.
I took out a set of robes that were the same as Xue Leng's and said, "This one will be given to you." ”
Robes are the cheapest fabric, so I have two or three more on me.
The woman looked grateful, nodded and went into the room, I opened the bowl, oh my God!!
It's the potato I hate the most! And there's not a bit of meat at all, just a few potatoes with sauce!
After a while, the woman came out, and she seemed to smell the scent of potatoes, and I could hear her stomach growling.
"Eat when you're hungry, I don't have an appetite for the time being. "For Modern, I can go without food for a month, so a few potatoes in front of me can't restore much physical strength, not to mention that I can eat enough if I say that the magic capital.
"Are you a slave?" I looked at the woman who gobbled it up, afraid she would swallow.
When the woman heard my words, tears came out: "I was abandoned by my mother......"
I learned more about it that this woman was a hybrid born of a magical nobleman who was born to a dark devil*.
I think it's right, the mixed race doesn't have a high status in the same party.
"How much did you buy it here?" I was a little curious, and gave her my water bag.
She nodded gratefully: "Ten black carved agate." ”
I slapped the table angrily: "A human life is only ten agate?!" Although agate is very expensive, black carved agate is usually not valuable, and can only be used as a lamp in the cemetery, which is very dim.
The woman was clearly frightened by me and shrank as she began to tremble.
I took one look at her and saw that although she was not beautiful, she was very innocent, and she was probably not older than me. I picked her up and said, "How many years have you been a slave? What are you doing?"
"For seventy years, I have been a cook. The woman said weakly.
I frowned, being a cook here, it was no different from a prisoner, and I immediately came: "Can you cook meat? Is it that porcupine, big pieces, boiled in water, then coated with sauce and fried?"
The woman nodded, and I was overjoyed: "Okay, I'll buy you!" I happily took out a tael of stainless steel, called the slave manager, and easily took her waist card.
The sign reads: "Morrigan." ”
"Your name is Morrigan?" I asked.
"Well, Morrigan......" the woman looked at me gratefully.
