In the village, some NPCs are selling goods on the streets, some are drying clothes and quilts in the courtyard, or walking on the road with baskets on their shoulders.
No matter what these NPCs are doing, they will be "harassed" by Su Ming...
Every time, Su Ming would start with "Do you know which mountain is the highest in Airment?". Some NPCs would answer that they didn't know, and some would tell Su Ming to go away in disgust...
Finally, Su Ming asked about a child, and he gave a more reliable answer:
"Brother, you should go to a library in a big city and check it out."
Just when Su Ming listened to the child's suggestion and was about to crush the Stone of Return to the City, he saw a short man with a loud voice arguing with a fruit vendor.
This man had a thick beard, and the white cloth bag on his back was stretched out roundly, revealing vegetables, fruits, fish and meat, as if someone who had been at home for a long time suddenly went out to do shopping.
Su Ming has been in the village for two or three days. He has an active temperament, runs around and looks everywhere, and has a good memory. He has basically recognized all the NPCs in the village, but he has never seen this one with this look.
Bearded man.
Coupled with the peculiar shape of this NPC, it immediately attracted Su Ming's attention.
Faced with such an NPC, no player would stop watching the fun.
Su Ming put down the return stone and prepared to try his luck, maybe he could trigger a good mission.
This NPC's name is Nez.
Su Ming listened to their quarrel for a while and summarized the reason - Nez seemed to have tried the apple and found it not delicious, so he left without intending to buy it, but was stopped by the boss.
They argued so fiercely that other nearby NPCs gathered around them.
Su Ming didn't know how long it would take for them to finish arguing, so he said:
"Boss, I will pay for this uncle's apples."
"Okay, 2.5 silver." The fruit seller agreed decisively.
Su Ming paid the money, and the uncle who bought the fruit glared at Nez. Nez glared at Su Ming, pushed away from the crowd, and left.
Seeing that there was no more excitement, the nearby NPCs dispersed and went about their business.
Su Ming caught up with Nez and asked:
"Uncle, where are you from?"
Nez glanced at Su Ming and did not answer Su Ming's question. He was still struggling with Apple:
"I'm telling you, boy, don't meddle in other people's business. His apples are not sweet at all. You are only encouraging his arrogance."
Su Ming was speechless and said:
"Uncle, those are green apples... they should not be sweet."
"You guys, no matter how you talk, you talk the same as that fruit seller. You can't be in the same group." Niez doubted.
"Uncle, where are you going after you bought so much food? Do you want me to carry it for you?" Su Ming tried to trigger a task. Tasks usually involve helping NPCs.
"Haha, with your small body, can you carry so many things?"
Su Ming picked up the whistle on his chest and turned it around, saying:
"Although I may not be able to lift it, my pet can."
Then, Su Ming summoned the hammer that seemed to be the strongest.
The majestic hammer appeared in the town, scaring the surrounding NPCs to run away. Some people even dropped the things they were holding. Su Ming explained to these frightened NPCs that it was his pet, and he would help those who dropped their things.
NPC picks things up.
After appeasing these NPCs, Su Ming looked again and found that Nez had gone away.
After all, it was a big road. Su Ming was afraid that chasing after him with a hammer would cause another commotion, so he put away the hammer, ran quickly, and chased after him.
"Uncle, you haven't answered me yet, where are you going?" Su Ming chased after Nez and asked.
"I want to go home, you little guy, why are you so annoying?" Nez said.
"Where is your home?" Su Ming gave full play to the players' shameless spirit and would never give up just because the NPC refused.
Nez rolled his eyes, ignored Su Ming, and walked straight out of the village.
Su Ming hung around Nez, asking questions. When he asked about the highest mountain in Airment, Nez's footsteps obviously paused. Su Ming's eyes lit up, thinking that there was something interesting, and there was no need to spend time going to the library.
The library is looking for information.
As Nez walked, he asked Su Ming:
"Why are you looking for this mountain?"
Su Ming answered truthfully:
"I heard that there is a blacksmith with superb forging skills living on this mountain. I want to buy dark gold equipment from him."
Nez raised his eyebrows and said calmly:
"The blacksmith you are talking about who is skilled in blacksmithing is me. As for the highest mountain, that happened a long time ago. Now I have moved..."
Su Ming was pleasantly surprised, ran in front of Nez, stopped him, and said with shining eyes:
"Please sell me dark gold equipment! If you have any difficulties, I can help you!"
Now that he has arrived outside the village, there are not many NPCs around, so Su Ming summoned his three pets at once, and he said:
"As you can see, I am... a strong listener. Do you think I have trained these three pets well?"
Xiaohei cooperated with Su Ming to puff up his body to make himself look stronger; Zaemon half-closed his eyes, not only disdainful to show his strength, but also feeling that he was not strong enough; the hammer... it was just a hammer, and he couldn't understand it at all.
What's happening now.
Nez stretched out his hand to push Su Ming away, continued walking forward, and said casually:
"I have nothing to do for you. If you want to buy dark gold equipment, just bring the money."
"Okay, okay, please wait here for a moment. I'll go get the money right away. How much does it cost?"
"Some are expensive and some are cheap. A hundred thousand is enough." Nez said, "However, besides you, there is another adventurer who found me and asked me to buy equipment.
I have a rule that I only sell one piece of dark gold equipment every year, so you two will have a competition, and whoever wins will be qualified to buy equipment from me."
"Is there anyone else?" Su Ming was surprised... You really can't underestimate other players, and you don't know how they found maps of more than 30 levels.
In the distance, there is an eagle with white feathers on its neck and golden feathers standing on the hill.
Nez whistled, and the giant eagle flapped its wings. Su Ming could feel the air rushing towards his face from ten meters away.
The golden eagle landed next to Nez, and Su Ming discovered that there was equipment similar to a saddle on the bird's back.
Nez threw the huge backpack he was carrying onto Golden Eagle, turned to Su Ming and said:
"I'll give you two minutes to withdraw the money."
Nez knew the location of the bank in the village. Normally, a trainer of Su Ming's level couldn't make the round trip in two minutes.
Therefore, these two minutes can be regarded as part of Nez's test. If Su Ming cannot come back within two minutes, Nez will fly away directly on the giant eagle.
"OK!"
Su Ming nodded and immediately ran to the bank in the village. After a while, he returned to Nez with a huge sum of money.
Su Ming's permanent movement speed bonus is 40%, and his movement speed exceeds that of many animal trainers of the same level. It is similar to some agile professions that use silver mixed with bronze equipment.
Nez sat on the giant eagle, looked down at Su Ming, and said with a smile:
"The movements are quite fast, and it seems that he has some real strength."
Later, Nez said to the giant eagle:
"Monia, sit down..."
Before Nez finished speaking, Su Ming's cheerful voice sounded in his ears again:
"Mr. Niez, let's go!"
Nez was surprised that as a storm eagle, Monia had a bad temper and actually let a stranger come up without her own orders.
"Monia, do you like him?" Nez used his consciousness to communicate with Monia.
Monia said very speechlessly:
"What the hell, this guy is as agile as a monkey, and the electric current generated passively cannot shock him."
Nez: "..."
"Mr. Niez?" Su Ming waved his hand in front of Niez and asked, "Why haven't you set off yet? Did you forget to buy something?"
Nez rubbed his forehead and felt that Su Ming would be a very troublesome guy. He said to Monica:
