"What's wrong, uncle, you're being cooked...ah, no, are you being abandoned?"
Sitting in the corner is the uncle who came to Fenghua Town with Duan Qing and Mengzhu, a man named the Smiling Butcher. He is leaning against the wall of a certain house, sitting cross-legged in the corner at the base of the wall, and the iron
The large quality shield was placed across his knees, reflecting the light of the metal in the early morning. He gently tapped the surface of the shield with both hands, looking miserable and idle.
He seemed to recognize the man and woman walking over, and Uncle Smiling's originally somewhat gloomy expression also had a hint of a smile.
"Oh, it's you two..."
"What are you doing sitting here?" Duan Qing looked around and then sat down next to him.
"Well..." The other party paused, and then showed a very bitter expression: "I don't know... what to do."
"Ah?" Mengzhu, who was standing aside, also came over: "Aren't you here to find a job?"
Finding a job is a common method in the game. It actually means finding people to form a team and take risks.
"No." The uncle laughed and said, "I just saw that there were so many people here, so I came here to join in the fun."
"I've never seen anyone sitting here and joining in the fun..." Duan Qing touched his chin: "If you want to watch the fun, go over there. I guarantee there will be a show every day."
The direction he pointed was a line of teams for guilds to recruit members. When Duan Qing pointed there, two more players from the guilds were already arguing, looking like they were gearing up, and they looked like they were about to get excited.
The fight started.
The smiling butcher smiled knowingly again, then shook his head and stopped looking over there. Duan Qing on the side saw all these expressions in his eyes, and suddenly thought of the previous conversation when he first arrived in Fenghua Town: "I remember
,Uncle, you are coming to this place to find someone..."
"Well, um..." Uncle Butcher's expression turned gloomy again: "We've...finished the search."
"The search is over." Duan Qing and Mengzhu looked at each other, and the latter slowly sat on the ground next to him and asked: "Uncle, I wonder if you... have joined the guild?
Woolen cloth?"
"...No." The uncle looked at the girl in front of him and slowly shook his head: "What's the matter?"
"That's right." Mengzhu thought for a while, and then said: "I...oh, it's the two of us who want to form an adventure group, but now we are short of people..."
"You two?" The uncle butcher looked at the two people in front of him with surprise: "You want to form a guild?"
"It's not a guild, it's an adventure group." Mengzhu retorted dissatisfied: "We don't want to engage in such troublesome things, we just want to... set up an adventure group ourselves and have our own adventures in this game.
If we are in a group, maybe we can get along well."
"I'll make more money, too..." the girl added at the end.
"Haha..." The uncle looked at the other person's face and laughed, making him fit his name quite well. Duan Qing secretly gave Mengzhu a thumbs up, indicating that she should continue to work hard.
.
"How about it, uncle, do you want to think about it?" So Mengzhu went straight to the point.
"Now, I really don't belong to any guild, and I don't have anything to do..."
"Look, look, do you want it or not?"
"But I don't want to join any guild now..." The uncle looked up at the blue sky with a melancholy look on his face.
"Huh? But..."
"Don't worry, girl." The smiling butcher closed his eyes, but the corners of his mouth turned up: "I just don't want to join the guild, but... you don't mind. It's just an adventure group. If you just join a guild,
Adventure group, activities to stretch your muscles..."
He opened his eyes: "It should feel pretty good."
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then jumped up excitedly. Duan Qing knew that this was the first step for them to recruit teammates, and it was also the first step.
We can finally let go of all the troubles we have encountered in the past few days.
After a short celebration, Mengzhu sat down again. The three of them sat on the floor and introduced each other's information and current situation.
"Mo Shang Qingshan, currently I am a swordsman, from now on...ahem, it depends on the situation." Duan Qing did not dare to finish his sentence after being kicked by Mengzhu.
"I am Mengzhu. I am also a melee professional. I am good at using daggers and daggers...well..." The girl frowned and thought for a long time. She seemed to be unable to think of anything she was good at, so she felt embarrassed.
scratched his head.
"I'm the Smiling Butcher, well, I just messed up my name, don't mind." The uncle who finished laughing cleared his throat, and then continued to introduce himself: "As you can see, I am good at shields, and I used to...
...hehe."
The uncle smiled and did not continue: "You can call me butcher, you can smile, or I can be uncle, in short..." He looked at the two people in front of him: "I don't think I am taking advantage of you.
That’s it.”
In the sky full of flying catkins, the three of them announced their families to each other, and then became teammates. The uncle briefly understood the situation, and then quickly entered the role: "So... we still have two people left, right?
?”
"Although this is the street with the most players in Fenghua Town, you are still looking for the wrong place." The uncle chuckled: "I am a special case. If you are looking for people who specifically want to join other guild forces,
You should..."
"Go to the pub." He pointed in a direction, where was the end of the street.
*****************
As the commercial street of Fenghua Town, Huawu Street is very spacious, so this street is located at the foot of the mountain. Although the terrain is gentle, there is still a slight slope.
Axel's Tavern is located at the end of this street, and it is also the highest place on this street. Every evening to late night is when this pub's business is most prosperous. Many people who like to relax and have fun will come here during the day.
Come here after being tired as a way to spend the night.
Of course, the tavern is also a good place for gatherings, the best choice for discussion and planning, and it is also a place where intelligence and black market traders often hang out.
There are still people in the tavern during the day, but the number of people is naturally not as large as at night, and almost all of them are players. Most of the people staying here at this time are alone. They are all equipped with equipment and look quite powerful, or
People standing or sitting are scattered around the tavern hall.
This tavern has a wooden structure and simple decoration, but it is spacious. However, there is no one waiting behind the counter located deep in the hall. It seems that it is not open. No one in the tavern pays attention to this.
Players who stay here, let them make trouble here.
The reason for the commotion was that when Duan Qing and the other two came in, a group of players were making noise in the middle, watching the two players fighting here.
One of the players was wearing a leather armor. The leather armor looked quite hard, so that the player's movements were a bit restrained. His weapon was a short sword, but he looked like he was holding one in one hand; the other player
He was wearing chainmail-style armor, but the buttons on the armor seemed to be made of wooden material. At this time, he was holding the big knife in his hand and was slashing at the double-sword player opposite.
"Watch my random cloak sword skills!"
The player held the knife in both hands and slashed in front of him. There was no pause in between the slashes. It seemed to others that he was almost doing it in one go. The slashes were slashed several times, leaving the player opposite him paralyzed and unable to do anything but dodge back and forth.
There is no way to fight back anymore.
"Does this place still allow fighting?" Mengzhu asked in a voice.
"It seems that someone is in charge...but only after they finish fighting." The smiling uncle said standing aside.
"They are all players who want to find stable jobs. Naturally, they are dissatisfied with each other. If they are not convinced, they will naturally fight... It should be the first time for you guys to come here."
The person who answered was a player standing by the door, leaning against the wooden wall behind. Duan Qing looked back and was surprised by the player's clothes.
That player was currently wearing...a bar waiter's uniform.
"The people who come here specifically to select players have gradually become accustomed to this kind of thing. They even use this as a means of selecting players." The player named Salted Fish King chuckled, and then put on his standard face again:
"So people here are used to this kind of thing, including...the owner of the tavern."
"According to our boss's rules, after they finish the fight, the loser will be thrown out and... responsible for paying for the losses here." The man pointed at the two men in front of him who had been cut down and retreated.
Sword player, as if that person is about to become the next indemnifier.
"Believe me, this is not a sum. So if you are going to end up, you must think about it carefully..."
The three people looked at each other, and then slowly shook their heads: "We just came to take a look, but..."
"But they came here early in the morning to fight. They are really energetic."
"The real time is not early in the morning, and... I don't think it's just those who want to bid themselves a good price here..." Duan Qing touched his chin: "Photos
If it continues like this, it may become a fixed PK-only zone in the future."
"Well, this gentleman is right." This person was still a bit into the drama: "There are already some players who love playing with others and have begun to stay here. I believe that it won't be long before..."
"The business of this tavern will be even more prosperous."
He smiled slightly, and with his handsome face, he looked like he was vying to be the lobby manager.
Duan Qing also smiled, then turned back and looked over there: "Well, I don't think I've ever heard of the skill of Rancloak Sword Technique..."
"Of course there is no such skill." The smiling uncle answered him: "There are very few skills recognized by the free world system, but players like to be cool, so... shout out the name of the move before attacking.
Isn’t it a common thing?”
"Of course, I chose the names myself." He spread his hands.
"That's not the case...it's too low-level." Duan Qing also shrugged.
As he spoke, the outcome of the battle on the field finally came to an end. The sword player slashed for three consecutive rounds, and finally cut himself to the limit. He gasped and stepped back, trying to fully recover his physical strength, and then change his fighting style.
Let’s start over. However, the dual sword player on the opposite side doesn’t seem to want to give the opponent such a chance.
Rolling and jumping forward, the double-sword player quickly approached the opponent, but did not stand up from the ground. He just lay on the ground and executed a horizontal slash.
"Watch my swordsmanship!"
"I can't bear to watch..." Seeing the big sword player screaming and falling down, Duan Qing covered his face with his hands: "Can you guys come up with some nice names..."
"No, I think it's quite vivid..." The smiling uncle was on the side, still smiling.
The big sword player did not die, but was carried out directly by the tavern security guard who appeared out of nowhere. It seems that players in the free world will not kill others easily. After all, this is in the city, and life is at stake.
Responsible.
However, as the winner, the player naturally received applause from other players, and some people who were observing in secret also slowly walked up and began to extend their olive branches.
The girl who had the same idea had to retreat.
"Don't worry, there are so many people here, it's not easy to get two people together?" Duan Qing comforted Mengzhu who had retreated: "Besides, he uses the lower third route, and we look down on him...
"
"Customers, please excuse me..." The player dressed as a waiter standing at the door suddenly spoke again: "You want to... find someone to form an adventure group, right?
?”
"Yes." The three people turned back at the same time and looked at the Salted Fish King in front of them: "Do you have any good suggestions?"
"If you don't mind, I can recommend a candidate to you." The man kept smiling: "But accordingly, I need to ask for some agency fees..."
"I think you are very good." Duan Qing suddenly interjected: "Anyway, if we are just making up the numbers, we also need people like you. Otherwise, you can just sell yourself...what?"
Under his gaze, the man opposite lowered his head: "Humph..."
"You are not the first person to make this request to me, but with all due respect, my price...may be a bit high."
"No matter how tall you are, what can you do... Hey, hey, whatever you want, okay, okay, I won't say anything..." Duan Qing dusted off the footprints on his body, stepped back, and put on his clothes
The girl with a smile on her face said: "Well... we are very poor, and we are not members of a guild. We just want to form an adventure group of our own, do tasks and earn some money...
..But I can guarantee that the atmosphere in our group is definitely - yes - harmonious, and there are definitely benefits, although I haven't thought of it yet... By the way, we have experts in charge.
Oh, in short, it will be no problem to do the tasks normally, just make sure you can make money..."
As if she had reincarnated into a grocery shopping aunt in the past, Mengzhu chattered and started negotiating with the other party. But Duan Qing behind him looked at the smile on the waiter's face and knew that his heart was broken at this time.
"Our purpose is to serve the players wholeheartedly. Of course, the players here are ourselves! Don't worry, there will never be any uneven distribution of the spoils. They are all our own..." 叽婷Wowala
Chiliwala.
The things you mentioned, if you talk to this person who was so impressive before, can you really impress him...
"Think about it, how wonderful and comfortable it is to be taken care of by the adventure group and live freely at the same time! By the way, Uncle Richard mentioned before that before our Fenghua Town
We haven't set up an adventure group yet, so we might be the first! What an honor..." Nagging, nagging, nagging.
Facts have proved that it is indeed impressive...or maybe it is unbearable.
"Okay, okay, okay, I understand, you just need to put your name on it, right..." As if he couldn't resist the girl's tireless bombardment, the waiter finally agreed, and his actions on the other end were...
Like the old-fashioned saying: "Okay in advance, I can't do anything, and I reserve the right to quit at any time..."
"Okay, okay, no problem, no problem, as long as you sign this agreement, of course you can also fingerprint it..." The girl took out a piece of parchment very skillfully and handed it to
In front of the other party, he blinked his big eyes, like the stars in the sky at night in the free world: "By the way, you wanted to recommend someone to us before, who is it?"
"Hahahaha..." The smiling uncle laughed heartily with the greenish look on King Salted Fish's face.
