Chapter 673: The Spark Wants to Fire the Plains
In a small alley in the central city of Biss Star, Lin Shu and Nasha and Lan Yi were walking slowly, while walking, like ordinary tourists, from time to time into the small shops on both sides to take a turn, Nasha is not a woman who likes shopping very much, but she likes beautiful things.
"Senior brother, the things here are very interesting. ”
"There are more interesting places, and in a moment we go to the black market, where there is more fun and more things. ”
"Okay, so where are we going now?"
"Go meet an old man and ask him if he's ever seen a fragment of the Shield or something. ”
"Old man, does he know a lot of things?"
Lin Shu smiled and nodded: "Yes, he thinks so himself, and I think so too." ”
"And where is he?"
Lin Shu pointed to the bookstore in front of him: "Here!"
Pushing open the wooden door of the bookstore, Lan Yi frowned, gathered her wings, and squeezed in with a little force, as soon as she entered the door, she heard a scream.
"Bad guys!
Lin Shu smiled: "Nasha, this is Bi'er, the clerk of the bookstore, she is a goblin clan, well, the moonlight goblin clan, have you noticed that her ears are a little like your Niya clan." ”
"Well, I found out, hello Bi'er, my name is Nasha, I'm his wife, why do you call him a bad guy?"
Bi'er blinked at her eyes, which seemed a little too big, and she noticed Nasha's ears as well, which were really similar, but Nasha's were much shorter.
"Hello, how can you be the wife of a bad guy!"
Looking at Bi'er's indignant look, Nasha smiled, "Because I like him." So it's his wife. What bad things did he do?"
"Him. He broke the stairs of my house, and her!"
Bi'er pointed at Lan Yi, and in response to Bi'er's accusation, Lan Yi disdainfully squirted a single tone from her nose.
The quarrel in front of the counter of the bookstore attracted the attention of several customers, but when they saw Lan Yi, they consciously retracted their heads.
Lin Shu smiled: "I remember that I compensated you for your losses last time, Bi'er. Be kind, although you are a moonlight goblin, you can't play tricks!"
"You, you, you bully! What does this have to do with what race I am?! Bad guys, bad guys!"
"Hehe, alright, I'll come to your grandfather, then let's go up, Nasha. ”
"Wait. This winged man can't go up, otherwise he will break the stairs of my house. Last time I spent a lot of money to fix it. ”
Lin Shu and Nasha looked towards the stairs together, this kind of small staircase, as long as it takes a little time and magic, it can be easily repaired, Nasha pursed her lips and smiled, Bi'er was a little embarrassed by Nasha's laughter, and jumped off the barstool with a red face.
"I'll take you up. ”
Lin Shu turned his head to Lan Yi and said, "Xiaolan, you help look after the store." ”
"Good!"
Lan Yi agreed, but there was some unhappiness in her eyes, and she also wanted to go up and listen to the gossip.
Bi'er hesitated, she was worried that Lan Yi would not accept the money, but it seemed that these customers were not willing to pay, so she pouted, glanced at Lan Yi, and turned around and stepped up the stairs.
The movement downstairs had already alarmed Lao Jin, who was staring at the stairs with somewhat cloudy eyes, and Bi'er also empathetically moved out of the way of the front of the stairs, so that Lin Shu could see Lao Jin sitting behind the big desk as soon as he came up.
There was only one chair, and Nasha was naturally standing behind the trees, while Bi'er was standing beside Laukin.
"Mr. Laukin, don't you even owe a cup of tea?"
"Hehe, you're not here for tea, what's the matter this time?"
Lin Shu smiled and turned his head to look at Nasha, and turned back to introduce: "My wife Nasha, this is called Lao Jin, the owner of the bookstore, and has the name of 'living library'. ”
"Luckily!"
"It was a pleasure to meet you, beautiful lady. ”
Lin Shu picked up the book on the table in front of him and looked at it, and put it aside casually: "Did you sell that book last time?"
Lao Jin's eyes flashed and said: "Speaking of that book, the books you listed for sale on the black market have all been sold, and the last few books were actually sold in the form of auctions, and I heard that the price is very high." ”
"It's strange, won't they reprint it themselves!"
"You don't care?"
"I don't care if they don't reprint?"
Lao Jin stroked his long beard and smiled, and the wrinkles on his face became active, like a lot of earthworms wriggling.
"So, I can make some copies and sell them?"
"Just don't let me see it, besides, as long as you're not afraid to bring disaster upon yourself. ”
"Forget it, we goblins have always been relatively timid, and we may not be able to enjoy it if we have money. ”
"Your granddaughter is much more daring than you. ”
Bi'er glared at Lin Shu, but when she heard her grandfather's words just now, she was really moved, but how could Lin Shu see it?
"Little children, not sensible. I heard that there was a big mess in the capital star, I wonder if Mr. Lu Daolin heard any news?"
"Who knows, the conflict between the Winged People's military and civilian officials and the royal family has been going on for a long time, and it may be time to break out. ”
"Yes, what a coincidence, it just so happened that I told you that the entrance to West Kunlun might be in the Capital Star, and it turned out that something happened to the Capital Star!"
"Your imagination is good, do you think I can do this alone?"
Lin Shu looked at Lao Jin playfully, and Lao Jin smiled with a smile: "How do I think it doesn't matter, the key is what the winged people will think." ”
"So, you're going to tell Tsubasato about your baseless speculation?"
"I still want to live well, people who talk a lot won't live long!"
Lin Shu curled the corners of his mouth: "You are very well-informed, do you have any other news?"
"Yes, a lot of news, over the years, this period of time has the most news, and the most interesting, I found that the origin of everything has something to do with you, am I thinking too much about it?"
"Perhaps, but I'd love to hear what you think. ”
"Well, this started when you came to me, and then I found that magical universal cultivation method very interesting. Then there was a big mess in the capital star. There are signs of division within the Wingman Empire, and the sudden, unexplained defeat of the Taximens and the Resers. The Slanka outpost changed hands, and the war is spreading to Tan Sting; the day before yesterday, Yun Yuan Star lost contact, and it is estimated that it will not be a good thing, and Yun Yuan Star's detachment is estimated to be finished; Yesterday, there was a large-scale rebellion in Bi Bu Xing and War Emperor Star, and the Wingman Detachment suffered heavy losses, it is said. Many masters suddenly appeared on these two planets. ”
Lin Shu listened patiently, the expression on his face was very calm, and Lao Jin gave up trying to see something from Lin Shu's face, but he believed that all this seemed to have a mysterious connection with Lin Shu, and the person in front of him was too mysterious.
"Speaking of which, a lot of things have really happened, no wonder the prices of Bisxing have risen a lot, it seems that everyone is busy preparing for war!"
"Perhaps. ”
"Laumkin, how do you think the Wingman Empire will develop?"
"It's hard to say, maybe this will re-energize the Winged Empire to unity. Or perhaps, it will further exacerbate the division of the Wingman Empire. ”
"It's easier to understand that unity is restored. So what is it to further exacerbate the division?"
"It's very simple, in order to seize power by borrowing money. ”
Lin Shu nodded, this possibility does exist, and the possibility is quite large, although the Wingman Empire is on fire everywhere, a bit of a spark fire, but on the whole, the problem of the Wingman Empire is only a small local area, so it may be difficult to affect the entire Wingman Empire.
On the contrary, some nobles of the Wingman Empire are likely to use these rebellions and wars to achieve some of their own ends. However, from another point of view, from the forest tree and the rebel army, this practice is actually more welcome, raising self-respect or using the Kou to seize power is a matter of playing with fire, and if the fire is not good, it will get out of control.
"But it's clear that change has happened. ”
"Yes, it has already happened, although it may take a long time, but this change seems to be unstoppable, I think, Mr. Lin must be able to see the biggest problem of the Wingman, the contraction and division of the Wingman Empire, should be unavoidable. Laukine seemed happy to sum it up.
Lin Shu smiled: "You are full of confidence, maybe it's just wishful thinking." ”
"Who knows, I'm looking forward to it anyway, is there a problem?"
"Hehe, not at all. So, let's get down to business, I'm here to ask about something else. ”
"Please say, I'd be happy to give you some advice. ”
Lin Shu put his hand into the pocket of his coat, of course, he actually took out the fragment of the Heavenly Shield from the Qiankun Ring, put it in front of Lao Jin with the box, and then stretched out his hand to signal.
"Look at this thing, do you know what it is and where does it come from?"
Lao Jin curiously reached out and took the box, Bi'er also stared at the box with wide eyes, there was only a small piece of black and gray metal inside, it was obvious that this was a fragment, Lao Jin reached out and picked up the box, leaned in front of him and looked at it carefully, and did not make a sound for a long time.
"Bi'er, what do you think this is?"
"Grandpa, this thing doesn't seem to exist, it's like, it's like an ice cube, a completely transparent ice cube. ”
Bi'er's talent is indeed very powerful, and she discovered the characteristics of this thing at once, Lao Jin still tossed for a while before noticing the strangeness of this thing, if this fragment was not solemnly handed over to Lao Jin by Lin Shu, Lao Jin might casually throw this inconspicuous fragment aside.
"Ice cubes, hehe, in fact, this thing is transparent to spiritual power, well, soul power, right, Mr. Lin?"
"That's right, Bi'er's talent is really good, stay in this small shop and bury it. ”
"Mr. Lin, I am old, and Bi'er is my only relative. ”
Lin Shu shrugged her shoulders, Nasha glanced at Bi'er regretfully, in fact, she really wanted to accept this disciple, I don't know what Lu Dao is for, she feels that Bi'er is very kind to herself.
"So, have you ever seen anything like this, or seen something like it in a book? I want to find more of this metal. ”
"What's the use of this?"
Bi'er asked curiously.
Nasha smiled and explained: "There is nothing useless in this world, it just depends on how you use it, not to mention such an interesting thing, it must be useful." ”
Bi'er thought about it and nodded in agreement with a smile.
Lin Shu ignored the conversation between the two women, but looked at Lao Jin intently, and Lao Jin frowned and fell into deep thought, as if he was searching for clues in his huge memory. (To be continued......)
