MTL - Xiling Empire-Chapter 1559 Ellow
While I was planning to buy something to go back to as a gift for the guys in my family, my clothes corner was suddenly caught behind someone.
Turning around, it turned out to be short girls with short hair.
The strange little girl was wearing a khaki shorts and shorts, she looked thin and small, but the expression on her face was full of vitality, her skin color was dark, her eyes were large, and her eyes had a kind of irresistible Aggressive and agile, with pale yellow shoulder-length short hair, and some shiny small metal pieces hanging from the ends of the hair, this maverick dress is quite different from the civilians around me, so I couldn't help looking at it twice, But no matter how you look at it, of course you still don't know it.
"What's wrong? Do you want to help?" I don't think I know the locals here, and I dress as well as possible with the local people, so there should be nothing special about looking at this little girl in front of me. Maybe I just got lost and asked for help?
"Are you a foreigner?" The auratic little girl opened her mouth to speak as crisply as a beanie, and her big bright eyes shot a little back and forth around me, and she nodded her head and concluded. "Would you like a tour guide? My name is Ai Lu, it's here ... Well, it's a guide here! It's a guide for new adventurers! I'm familiar with it, I know all the taverns and grocery stores, and I know Where is the smithy! Would you like a tour guide? Just twenty copper plates a day ~ "
"Tour guide?" I froze for a moment, then looked around suddenly: a small village built along the river, without a circle of surrounding walls, I would even think that this is a wild village, a small place with a few hundred households. Can't develop tourism?
What's more, this place doesn't look like a tourist attraction. Look at the farmland outside the town, look at the ordinary street houses, look at the bare buttocks running around beside the haystacks, and that far away. The big forest that is clearly still in its original state ... well. In the end, this may be a bit interesting, but otherwise this place does not look like a tourist attraction, or the aesthetics and living habits of the people on this planet are more unique, and this one is normal from the beginning. Riverside town is a tourist destination?
The little girl who claimed to be Ailu seemed to see my confusion and jumped up and down: "It's not lively right now, it will be lively here soon! You won't find an affordable guide like me at that time! And adventurers If there are more, the competition will be fierce. If you run around by yourself, you will definitely fall behind. Although I am not familiar with the depths of the forest ... but the outside is very familiar! I can take you to the forest. Here, you only need to collect twenty more copper plates! In addition, I can arrange accommodation for you. My family opened a hotel ... I used to open a hotel! There are still many rooms now. As long as twenty copper plates a day! "
The little girl talked about herself a lot. Before I spoke, she was filled with a lot of causes and consequences, but I didn't care who she misunderstood me, but I was just curious: "how Twenty copper plates? "
"The price is clearly marked, and the child is not bullying! Ailu has always been a price for doing business!" The girl explained with an excuse that seemed irrelevant, and then dragged my corner again, "Come here, go first Pub, then the grocery store. Finally, go to the blacksmith's shop ... Aren't you all the adventurers in this order? People can be professional! "
As I was crying and laughing, and I didn't know how to resolve the misunderstanding, Sandola's voice suddenly sounded in my mind: "There is no goal anyway, it is better to follow this little girl. By the way, understand the life of the locals."
"Okay, then you can show you the way." I smiled and patted the head of the little girl who claimed to be Elro, and secretly made some local currency based on previous observations, so that the little girl could be used as a guide to pay. Speaking of this kind of world with a relatively backward technology level, it is confusing. At least the currency is relatively primitive. Copper plates are easier to manufacture than credit cards and anti-counterfeiting chips ...
Ai Lu took a look at me in surprise, it seemed that she was a little surprised that someone really led her. Immediately I felt like I was being flickered, but soon the little girl closed her eyes and was surprised, and ran to the side cheerfully: "Come and come! I will take you to the pub first! There are many adventures here Those are all gathered these days, it's amazing! "
"I don't think she looks like a tour guide?" I couldn't help but mumbled in the spiritual connection. "How could anyone leave the guest and run forward happily."
"I don't think she looks like a tour guide," Sandora hovered next to my head, "but it might be a child's mind."
I still have a lot of doubts, for example, how did the little girl Ailu see her identity as a foreigner, and how she supplemented my brain into a so-called adventurer, why does such a small riverside town have a "guide"? This business, and what the other party mentioned "will soon be lively", what is the cause of my late systemic diffuse obsessive-compulsive disorder, if I do n’t understand these problems, I ’m going to sleep and eat. I caught up with the little "guide" who jumped fast in front of me, and chatted with her as a stranger who was a newcomer: "How do you tell that I am a foreigner? I am dressed up It should be like ordinary people here. "
"The outsider can see it at a glance!" Said the little girl Ailu, grinning, "I know everyone in the town! So if I don't know, it must be a foreigner."
I: "..." turned out to be such a method of identification! ?
Fortunately, the little girl also has the following text: "In addition, your behavior is also like a foreigner. You are not familiar with the road here, and you are interested in common things in the market. When you buy things, you do n’t know what to choose for a long time. It ’s from a foreign country. I ’m a professional guide, and at a glance I found out from the crowd that foreigners who need help are the most basic survival skills. By the way, do you want a map here? A map of the town and the surrounding area, as long as 20 A copper plate! "
The little girl said in front of her, but she really revealed her nature again: Did she know a number in her life?
I nodded, and then I saw Elw pulling a crumpled piece of yellow papyrus from the hanging pocket in front of her blouse: "Here you are, twenty copper plates! One handed money and one handed delivery!"
Although it seemed to be pitted, I counted twenty copper plates and stuffed it into the little girl's hands, and then took the crumpled paper ball. After unrolling, I found that it was pitted: this is a square foot and has not been cut A neatly cut grass paper with a thick black stroke outlines a map like a stick figure. You see the innocent tree icon, you see the innocent dog symbol. Look at the innocent father-in-law of the sun ... I have painted this stuff before the second grade of elementary school, and the little bubbles at home are still painting similar things, and in all fairness, the little bubbles are better than this Neat.
This is a map of twenty copper plates. You can see at a glance that Ai Lu himself painted it, and more importantly ...
I reached out and touched the map, and it was time to wash my hands: this thing faded! She painted it with charcoal!
"I can be sure that we must be pitted by this map alone," I said to Sandola in a spiritual connection. "No reliable tour guide can really take this thing out and sell it." "
"You were pitted, and I didn't ask you to buy anything just now," Sandola said as she floated over the little girl Ailu's head. Of course the latter knew nothing, "Continue to follow her and see what else the child has."
At this time, Ailu had put away the copper coins with a surprise appearance. All signs showed that she had never thought that she could really make money, and this made me more sure that she was actually a stupid bear child, but The rich experience with bear children is more important, the tolerance is very strong, so it is right to spend time with children. After the other party closed the copper plate, I patted her hair: "Speaking ... what's going on here?"
"Don't you know?" Ailu shook her head and said that she was not a child who needed to be touched, and then came over in surprise. "Aren't you just an adventurer? Is it just passing by?"
There was a look of disappointment visible to the naked eye. It seems that as long as it is certain that the person in front of her is not an "adventurer", she will turn her head away. Although I don't know what is going on, I still decide to continue the misunderstanding at this time, so I integrate the flicker experience that I have developed over the years. Make the lie as round as possible: "Of course it is an adventurer. But you also saw that I came out alone, and the intelligence was not very good ... well, I didn't expect so many people to come over. I thought I was the only one who was Attracted here. Aren't you a tour guide, and you talk about what you know. "
"Oh, that's the way it is." Ai Lu didn't think much about my ambiguous explanation, and when she talked about a certain topic, her face was full of excitement, "Of course it was because of the forest The ruins of the ancient tower have recently been passed to the capital of the kingdom, and the priest of the church has issued a pardon to allow exploration. As a result, many adventurers came here at once! Did n’t they all say so in the novel, silently? Mysterious ancient ruins suddenly appeared next to the unknown village, and then many powerful adventurers came to destroy the monsters in the ruins. The earlier the adventurer, the easier it is to become a hero. The local children who led the hero adventurer back then It has also become a well-known scholar on the mainland ... Ailu will soon meet many great adventurers! Then I will become famous! "
Immediately I knew what was going on with this little girl ... I said that the child should study hard and don't read too many extracurricular books!
However, removing the second fantasy part of Ailu, the remaining information is still very useful: it seems that this seemingly ordinary riverside town is really going to be lively, and the reason for the liveliness is in the big forest next to it Found something called the "Ancient Tower"? Will this ancient tower have anything to do with civilization?
Sandora and I decided on the spot and waited to accompany Elw around to get a general understanding of the town, then took time to take a look in the forest, maybe we would find something very interesting.
And my head was full of "knowing with adventurers, making myself as powerful as in the novel, and finally traveling the mainland to become a well-known scholar." Ai Lu soon took us to the first destination, a look I went up to a tavern that was not much bigger than the ramen restaurants everywhere on the streets of the earth, and it was really lively to hear the movement inside.
"Here it is!" Ailou said loudly in front of the tavern. "This is the home of adventurers! Your journey begins!"
Immediately after Ai Lu's words came out, she ran out of the tavern with a length-to-width ratio of about one to one, and dragging Ai's ears was a roar of Hedong lion. Go home and make your dream! We are a river valley tavern! Last year called the forest tavern! The year before was called the pig bone soup tavern! ... Well, I'm sorry I didn't see any customers at the door. Are you here for dinner? "
The dwarf aunt raised her eyes and saw that I was standing embarrassingly three meters away, and my face couldn't stop. The auntie, who was almost equal to the vertical, threw Ailu aside, with the unique kindness and savvy of the market merchant, and greeted me with a smile: "You will not be ailu This kid lied? She just dreams all day long, don't you mind ... not a native? "
Me: "..." Has my camouflage technology gone backwards over the years? How can anyone find that I am not familiar with it? And they were discovered at first glance!
However, the word of the dwarf mother has completely revealed the original appearance of Ailu. It turned out that she was really a cowardly little talker, but the girl did not seem to be aware of it, and she did not even have an embarrassed expression on her face. Just grinning and grimacing at the dwarf maiden for a long time, and then dragging me to the tavern: "The tavern pasari, the bad-tempered woman. Hum, wait and see, the tavern must be by then It will become a place for adventurers to meet, and sooner or later you will be responsible for distributing tasks to adventurers! Come, I will bring you familiar with the atmosphere here ... "
The dwarf boss lady in the pub gave Ai Lu a severe look, but it seems that the latter is often so noisy and has reached a level that no one can discipline, so the boss lady can only stare at her, then explain to me while laughing and following up: "Don't mind. This child is a famous 'character' in our town. I had been fantasizing about something out of bounds. Recently, more and more adventurers in the town have made her more and more uncontrollable. Anyway, don't worry. Do n’t take her seriously. I will report to her family later. ”
Elw jumped back and forth: "Miss Passari, this is prejudice! I'm trying to help my family make money!"
In return, he stared again.
I smiled indifferently: "It's okay, I just came from a foreign country, and I'm not familiar with my life. This little girl really took me around. Speaking of it ... Is there a relic found near you, right?"
As much as I can, I pick the information I have. It's weird just in case there is a lot of mistakes. As for the bear child Ai Lu using a hand-drawn map to cheat twenty copper plates ... Hehe, can we not mention this? Moreover. Well play with children.
Pasari smiled with eyebrows: "Relics, because of this many people have recently attracted a lot, but it is also a good thing. Our business is much better. In the past, only people who were looking for elves to buy things would pass by. Now it ’s a few days here. Hilarious like anything. "
I turned my head and looked at the street not far away. It was really lively. When I was watching the town scenery outside, I just thought the people were thriving here. Now that I know the ruins, I will take a closer look. Many of them seem to be indifferent. Like civilians ... this should be a stranger.
Probably because there are so many foreigners here, the residents in the town are psychologically prepared for strange faces, and Ailu and Pasari can suddenly guess that I am also from a foreign town-after all, like this projectile town, Residents have more or less impressions, even if they have not met, they can see at a glance whether the other person has the "taste" of the locals.
No matter where they are, foreigners are very eye-catching in such small villages and towns where they hear each other.
The tavern has simple furnishings and there is nothing special about the structure, but the guests are quite a lot. Ai Lu dragged me to the east and the west did not find an empty table. In the end, I could only find an empty place near the wall. Two diners who seem to have been here for a while are sitting at the table. I didn't think about it until the moment I sat down: I didn't seem to say that I would come to drink and eat, right?
Why was he dragged in by this weird little girl! ? Isn't it just for sightseeing and not for consumption?
"This shows that this little girl was born with a tour guide," Sandola landed on the table in front of me in secret, and rolled around while talking blandly. "Regardless of whether you are interested or not, go around, Regardless of how much you want to spend, but I suggest you don't stay here too long ... others eat and watch me, it is easy to get manic. "
Me: "..." I realized that Sandora was probably going to be manic for a long time these days.
But since I ’ve sat in ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ It ’s a bit inappropriate to turn around and walk around at this time (mainly because it ’s a bit embarrassing to see the dwarf maid who is equal to the width is blocking the door), so I still raise my hand Greeting the little waitress girl who was running around between several tables casually served a few dishes and drinks. I did n’t know what the world was about, so I let her watch it, and she made the appearance of a distant visitor a porcelain, while Ai Lu sat down next to me and started to tell me this little The story of the town and the fierce monsters in the forest are vivid and vivid, from the pioneers in the early days of the town to the heroic fight against the plain savages, to the dangerous and terrible ancient monsters in the large forest next to it, and then to the town outside the town The Royal Knights on the plains against foreign invaders, the stories are colorful and vivid. I took a look at her story, and finally came to the conclusion: if half of her story is true, then this little The town covers an area of at least more than 2,000 square kilometers, and three group army kingdom knights have been lying in the large forest next to it, and more than a dozen princes have peeked at a local girl bathing on the river west of the village -Those girls eventually became side by side queens of the neighboring countries.
... how many knight novels this child usually reads!
As I was shocked by Ai Lu's increasingly unreliable description, a middle-aged man who looked opposite to him and looked like a stranger suddenly said, "You also went to find the ruins?" (To be continued.)
