Chapter 317: Camp
"Mr. Lin Shu, you see, this is a temporary camp. ”
Lin Shu was surprised to see that there was really a temporary camp here, and the scale was not small, and there was a circle of defensive walls built around it with earth magic, there were some simple buildings in it, and there were many tents, judging from the buildings in it, it should be a camp jointly made by some merchants.
I have to say that these merchants are really amazing, when a mountain peak collapses, they think of setting up a temporary camp here, selling all kinds of adventure supplies, and at the same time recycling what those adventurers find, needless to say, even if you set up a tent here, you also need to pay a fee, and the desire to make money makes people full of vitality and imagination.
There are two guards at the gate of the camp, but their mission is obviously not to block people entering and leaving, but to warn the monsters from rushing into the camp to cause trouble, this is a place where monsters are rampant.
The guards at the gate of the camp glanced at this strange adventure party with some curiosity, a very young and civilized man, a beautiful woman with glasses, and a tattered giant, but they just looked at it twice, the adventurers who came here did not have a simple guy, the so-called more is better than less, if you want to live a long life, you must learn to be less nosy.
"Is there a place to stay?"
"No, but there is a place to sell tents. ”
"Is there a place to sell clothes?"
"Yes, no, the wooden house with a flag on it. ”
"It's good, let's go buy a dress first and then go buy a tent. ”
"And food. And food. ”
Lin Shu turned his head: "Of course." Ali. You have to figure it out, we can't live without eating. ”
"Hehe, hehe"
"Huh, isn't this Ali? You're still alive!"
"Duke, you're all right, are you?"
"Well, of course it's okay, you didn't go back that day, we searched for a long time?
"Uh, no. No, I ran into a monster, I said."
Lin Shu and Nasha were silent, curiously watching the conversation between the magician named Duke and Ali, originally, the two of them just wanted to have a good time, but soon things seemed to have changed wonderfully.
"Huh, you don't look like adventurers, which family are you from?"
"Uh, does this have anything to do with you?"
"Of course, Ali is one of our players. You didn't bully Ali just because he was honest, did you?"
"No, no, Duke, they saw that I was injured and gave me treatment. Later, when he saw that I had nowhere to go alone, he hired me to bring them to this camp and gave me a hundred gold coins!"
"What? You protected them for a few days before giving them a hundred gold coins, isn't that bullying! Everyone, everyone also give a judgment, these two don't look like poor people, don't you bring such a trick to people, do you? Protect them in this dangerous forest for a few days, and only give them a hundred gold coins, what about this called Hanako?"
Nasha turned her face to look at Lin Shu's deflated expression, and couldn't help but feel a little funny, but her playful eyes made Duke misunderstand, and thought that she and Lin Shu were really empty-hearted.
Duke's voice was not small, and soon attracted some adventurers, adventurers are naturally a group of people who like to watch the excitement, and most of them are people who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, hearing Duke's words, there was a sudden uproar, Lin Shu is nothing, but Ali is already red-faced.
"No, no, no! really not, yes, it's my price, no, it's not them. ”
"Duke, what's going on?"
A few people pushed away the idle people who were watching and appeared in the circle, Lin Shu turned his head and glanced at these people, but it was just a glance, Lin Shu really didn't have any interest in them.
"Head, Ali is back. ”
"Ali?!Are you okay?"
"No, it's fine. ”
"Isn't it a good thing to be back, we are still looking for you everywhere, it's good to be back, it's good to be back. So what's going on now?"
"Head, that's the case, these two young men hired Ali to protect them for a few days, and in this dangerous forest, they gave a hundred gold coins, isn't this bullying, although Ali is sincere, but he can't be bullied in vain. ”
"That's what you say, that's true, according to the rules of the trade, to protect you in this kind of place for a few days, how can you get thousands of gold coins, don't you say?"
"That's it, the eldest lady and the eldest young master of a rich family don't know the market, or do you think that our people's cheap lives are only worth a hundred gold coins?"
"That's right, you can't look down on people like this!"
"Which family, isn't this bullying?"
"No, no, really not, they're good people, they didn't bully me, they really didn't!"
"Okay, Ali, we all know that you are stupid, you are bullied and still help people talk, don't worry! We are your companions, and we will definitely help you!"
"I, I, you"
"Alright, alright, don't say it, listen to us!"
"No, you're the bad guys, you're not my companions anymore, they're good guys, I don't want you to say that!"
Ali stepped between Duke and the trees, his short club sideways, and made a posture ready for battle.
"Okay, Ali, you're stupid, you're going to turn your face with us, have you forgotten who raised you?"
"I'm stupid, but I know that I've done so many things for you, I've never taken a single gold coin, I can eat, but I can also work, and I can eat up all my salary if I eat again?"
"yes, settle accounts, settle accounts for us, have a long ability! You white-eyed wolf, eat inside and crawl outside!"
"No, I, I, that day, you have abandoned me, I am not your companion, and the transaction between me and Mr. Lin Shu has nothing to do with you!"
Lin Shu gently pressed Ali on the shoulder, gently pushed him aside, Ali was surprised to find that his proud strength in Lin Shu's palm, actually seemed to have completely disappeared, Ali was so surprised that he forgot that he was having the courage to protect Lin Shu.
Ali has made it very clear that this is a transaction between me and Ali, and it has nothing to do with anyone else, even if I deceived Ali, it is also a matter between me and Ali, and it is not the turn of unrelated people to fight grievances. ”
"You"
"This"
"Alright, don't get in my way anymore, we still have something to do. ”
"Humph!"
Lin Shu stepped forward, the people in front of him were transparent, those people were taken by Lin Shu's momentum, and they all got out of the way, Ali was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly chased after him.
Nasha's clothes were worn in pairs, and now they were only tied with thread, but this is not a clothing store, so Nasha just picked out a field combat suit of the right size and borrowed the locker room to change into clothes.
Lin Shu also bought a set of combat clothes for Ali by the way, Ali was very happy, but Lin Shu watched Ali happily carry the deformed shield on his back, and always felt very disobedient, looking at Ali's love for the big shield, it was probably impossible to let him throw it away.
In the end, I went to buy two more tents and bought a new backpack.
Lin Shu sat in the tent and packed up the things in his backpack, Ali looked curiously at the contents of Lin Shu's bag, some plant seeds, some strange liquids in sealed bottles, and a piece of metal shaped like a huge droplet, and a few stones that looked like Kunshan jade.
This forest tree is really strange, he said that he is a student, he came here to investigate, it seems that this is really the case, a student is really a good career! Ali imagined enviously, while subconsciously wiping the deformed shield.
Finally, Ali couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mr. Lin Shu, what is that?"
"Oh, this is an alchemical metal that I don't know what to do, I'm going to take it back and study it. ”
"Oh, what about this?"
"This is a type of Kunshan jade. ”
"Kunshan Yu I know that the grocery store recycles, but it's not expensive, do you need to carry it all the way back?"
"Hehe, this is different, that's why I have to take it back to study. ”
"Do you usually study this?"
"yes, isn't it interesting to explore the unknown? For example, this piece of metal, what is it made of, what kind of alchemy techniques are used, why does it form a different nature, don't you wonder what makes it different? Don't you think these are all interesting things?"
Ali blinked his eyes and thought about it, nodded and said, "I'm going to be very curious, but I'm very stupid, so there's no way to know this, I can only do some simple things." ”
Lin Shu put down the strangely shaped metal block in his hand, looked up at Ali and said, "My teacher once told me that there are never stupid people in this world, only lazy people, even if they don't have a good head, as long as they have curiosity, they can make a difference. For example, what do you think you should do, or what do you like to do?"
"Of course, I like to be a good shield warrior. ”
"Very good, since that's the case, have you practiced hard every day, have you ever thought about the place where you didn't do well yesterday, and have you ever thought about how to do better?"
"This"
"To put it bluntly, whether you work hard and perseverely to do what you like, or are you always half-hearted and give up halfway, using your stupidity as an excuse for laziness!"
Ali grew his mouth, stared at Lin Shu with big eyes, and then thought hard, and finally, he nodded vigorously: "Mr. Lin Shu, I understand!
Lin Shu smiled, lowered his head and continued to pack his things, while casually saying, "If you understand, work hard." ”
In the tent next to her, Nasha pursed her lips and smiled, cleaned the two pieces of clothing that had been pierced in front and back with magic, then carefully folded them and solemnly packed them into her backpack. (To be continued......)
