Northwest Region, Lower Three Districts.
Unnamed tavern.
In the morning, business was not very good and there were almost no customers in the store.
The old shopkeeper with yellow teeth was lying on the counter and taking a nap.
In a daze, he looked up and found two more people, a man and a woman, sitting near the window in the store.
The man wore a mask and white armor.
The woman looked quite slovenly, like a beggar on the roadside.
The old shopkeeper grinned and greeted him.
As for when and how these two people appeared, he didn't want to ask at all.
There are too many messy people in this world.
In particular, many masters like to appear mysteriously and enjoy the shock and curiosity of others, and they are very good at showing off.
The old shopkeeper cursed in his heart and refused to praise him.
"What do you two want... Huh? It's you two. Do you want some brown rice wine today?"
When they got closer, the old shopkeeper recognized them. These two people were the same strangers who came a few days ago and ordered a plate of peanuts, drank fifteen jars of brown rice wine, and took another fifteen jars when they left.
"First come the fifteen altars."
Jian Xue Wuming waved his hand and said: "He pays the bill."
The old shopkeeper immediately served the wine.
"Why isn't His Majesty Yinhuang Haiwu here again?"
Lin Beichen said curiously.
In the previous agreement, Yinhuang Haiwu and Jianxue Wuming came to meet together, saying that they had equipment to be delivered.
Why, when we met, the dog goddess was the only one.
"There was a dispute in the business, so it's hard to show up for the time being."
Jian Xue Wuming explained simply and cryptically.
Then he started drinking tons and tons of it.
Business dispute
Could it be that he was being hunted for selling fake goods again
"Where's the equipment you're talking about?"
Lin Beichen didn't push too much and asked straight to the point.
Jianxue Wuming casually threw out an old storage bag with a tattered surface and said, "It's inside."
Huh
Really
Lin Beichen opened the storage bag and took a look, with a look of confusion on his face.
The flour inside
White powder.
"What's this?"
He looked at Jian Xue Wuming.
The dog goddess drank all the wine in the jar in one breath and said: "I'm afraid I'll scare you if I tell you its value. Its name is [Earth-shattering, Ghostly Crying, Godly Howling Confused God Powder]. You can't beat it if you encounter it." Throw it out and slap him in the face, and it will definitely make him dizzy. At that time, whether you are sneak attack or escape, it will be one word: absolute."
Lin Beichen's expression gradually froze.
What the fuck...
It sounds like lime powder.
Just play with me.
Jianxue Wuming seemed to have noticed his doubts. He drank another jar of wine and said: "Don't underestimate this powder. It's true that even the eyes of gods can't see it."
It’s so rare to be fascinated by something that ordinary people can’t do it…”
"real?"
Lin Beichen's heart moved.
Jian Xue Wuming glared at him and said, "Stop your dangerous and stupid ideas."
"what are you saying?"
Lin Beichen pretended not to know.
I quietly grabbed a handful of ecstasy powder.
Jianxue Wuming said angrily: "You bitch, if you dare to use me to test the power of the enchanting powder, I will really be jealous of you."
Lin Beichen chuckled, thought for a while, and finally calmly put the 'Miscellaneous Powder' in his hand back and said, "How can it be possible?"
"Be careful these days, don't be tricked by others."
Jian Xue Wuming wiped the wine stains from his mouth and said: "Be careful of your teammates during the game. Don't be tricked into counting money."
Lin Beichen said: "You have always been the one who cheated on me."
Jianxue Wuming said: "Go away, don't be ignorant of God's heart. In order to help you, I broke my oath..."
"It's not like I'm broken..."
Lin Beichen muttered.
"What did you say?"
Jianxue Wuming's eyebrows stood up: "You are a bitch, you are no longer treating yourself as an outsider."
Lin Beichen chuckled and said: "Don't be angry, didn't you say that? We have all been honest with each other... By the way, besides this fan, there are other divine swords, divine armors, divine shields, etc. Do you still have the equipment?”
"there is none left."
Jianxue Wuming said confidently: "This bag of enchanting powder has already emptied my and Yinhuang's pockets. Just take it and use it. If used properly, it will be more useful than a magic weapon."
"It feels like you just packed a bunch of lime powder on the roadside and tricked me into buying you a drink."
Lin Beichen said speechlessly.
"If you really want to think that way, then there's nothing I can do about it."
Classic scumbag quotes came out of Jianxue Wuming's mouth.
As she said that, she stood up and said, "Boss, bring me fifteen jars of brown rice wine and pack it up and take it away."
The old shopkeeper Huang Ya immediately said with a smile: "Okay, I have prepared it for you in advance. If you want thirty jars, the quantity is actually quite sufficient this time..."
"Old guy, do you want to die?"
Lin Beichen gave a death stare.
The old shopkeeper Huang Ya suddenly shrank his neck and disappeared in an instant like a housekeeper.
Jian Xue Wuming reluctantly carried fifteen jars of brown rice wine and walked to the door of the tavern. Thinking of something, he turned back and said: "By the way, you should keep a low profile these days. It's best to find a place to hide, otherwise those crazy people are looking for you." People will definitely offer various conditions for you to join their forces, and you will never tire of it."
"real?"
Lin Beichen's eyes lit up.
As soon as Jian Xue Wuming saw this expression, he knew that what he said was in vain, so he put his hand on his forehead and turned to leave.
Lin Beichen looked at the white powder in the old storage bag, thought about it, and put it away.
Although the dog goddess is very unreliable, this thing might come in handy.
He stood up to pay and was about to leave.
A magician wearing a black robe embellished with gold
, sat across the table.
"Jian Xiaoyao?"
This black-robed magician looked about fifty years old, with ordinary facial features and ridges on his face, which reminded Lin Beichen of the old professor from his college days on Earth who was full of economics and well versed in various philosophical theories from ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad.
It seems that every wrinkle contains knowledge that others cannot understand.
For the magician, the saying that knowledge is power is extremely accurate.
"Who are you?"
Lin Beichen sat down again.
The divine robe on the opponent's body is the style of the Great Desolate God Clan.
This is a powerful magician from the ruling overlord of the God Realm.
"The supreme Lord Guo, let me ask you."
The old magician's tone was as calm as the surface of an underground river with chaotic undercurrents in its depths.
Oh, this is the otherworldly version of the Imperial Army who asked me to bring you a message.
Lin Beichen said: "What do you ask?"
"Asking if you would like to join his service."
The old magician stared at Lin Beichen's pupils under the mask with a critical look, and said: "If you are willing to surrender, you don't have to wait until the God Selection Competition is over. He can grant you the status of a lower god now."
Lin Beichen was startled.
It was very sudden.
The old magician continued calmly: "Of course, you can also refuse. If you refuse, you will..."
"It goes without saying."
Lin Beichen immediately slapped the table, interrupted the old magician's words, and said: "I..."
The old magician sneered and rushed to say: "I know that young people like you become pretentious after achieving a little success. They always think that they can get everything they want just by relying on their own strength. It’s so naive to think that my destiny is up to me, haha. Wait until you go through the ups and downs and truly understand the world... "
"No no no, you don't understand."
Lin Beichen interrupted again: "I..."
The old magician interrupted and said: "Don't refuse in a hurry, you'd better consider it seriously..."
"Don't even think about it."
Lin Beichen said: "I can give you the answer now, I..."
"You dare to reject Guo Lord God, then I can only wish you good luck..." The old magician stood up.
"Can you just let me finish what the fuck I'm saying?"
Lin Beichen finally became anxious: "When did I refuse? I agree, I agree, give it to me quickly, give me the god's throne quickly."
"ah?"
The old magician was startled.
Same... Agree
Why don't you play by the rules
As an unparalleled genius who broke the record for the highest number of points in the preliminary rounds of the Divine Selection Competition, why did he not feel arrogant at all, or even bargain, and just agreed
Did I find an impostor
This is different from what he imagined.
