The Card Apprentice

Chapter 152

Views:

All kinds of protective equipment are distributed around the small auditorium, and almost all of them can be called a major exhibition of equipment. Chen Mu carefully looked at these cards, he had never seen so many cards. The shapes of these jammers are different, and the most common one is a jammer composed of countless barrels. A neat row of gun barrels formed an array, pointing to the sky. Since he couldn't see its internal structure, Chen Mu couldn't judge how this card attack. But those thick metal pipes alone are enough to make people feel palpitations. After a cursory glance, there are at least hundreds of cards piled up around the auditorium.

Each of these cards is huge in size, and in the eyes of a rookie like Chen Mu, they are still extremely intimidating. Put together, quite spectacular.

Weah and Chen Mu walked into the small auditorium. The circular dome makes the inner space feel wider, and the white stone pillars are carved with many patterns that Chen Mu can't quite understand. The lights inlaid in the dome are like stars, illuminating the hall brightly.

The auditorium was full of people, and the villagers were in groups of three or four, discussing in a relaxed manner. Cheerful music wafted everywhere, and there were excited screams of children.

Weah was still expressionless, and Chen Mu consciously followed closely behind. Wherever Weah went, the villagers would automatically give way to Weah, and playful children would not bother him. The strangest thing was that no one dared to say hello to Weah. Chen Mu smiled wryly in his heart, it seems that this guy is not a popular person either. On the contrary, he received many curious looks.

Weah looked calm, not at all unnatural. He led Chen Mu through the crowd, and soon came to the deepest part of the auditorium. Some important people in the village were waiting for them. Chen Mu saw the old man he met at the entrance of the village. He was standing in the middle of the crowd. Those who are as dull as Chen Mu also understand the status of this old man in the village. Bowen Chengying has also arrived, while Li Duhong stays obediently by Bowen's side.

When the little guy saw Chen Mu and Weah, his eyes lit up.

"Hehe, the poor hospitality, actually making Mr. Chen starve, really makes the old man feel ashamed. It's a sin!" The old man apologized. Alfonso on the side looked unhappy. He was severely scolded by the patriarch just now, so he was naturally uncomfortable. He didn't understand why the patriarch was so kind to such an ordinary-looking young man.

Chen Mu smiled: "You are too polite. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't be able to taste Weah's craftsmanship, and that would be a real regret."

"Oh." The old man's eyes lit up: "Mr. Chen and Weah can talk? That's a good relationship. Weah is the number one expert in our village. Both of them are young talents, so naturally we should get close to each other."

Among the crowd, someone snorted softly, obviously dissatisfied with the old man saying that Weah is the number one expert in the village. Even the middle-aged people around the old man looked a little ugly.

Weah's face remained unchanged, as if he didn't hear it. Chen Mu tactfully did not answer, he didn't care whether Weah was the number one expert in the village. But if it caused many people to hate him because of this incident, then the loss outweighed the gain.

The old man's expression remained unchanged, as if he didn't hear the cold snort, he turned his face and smiled at Chen Mu: "There are not many rules in the village. Although this is also called a party, it is actually quite chaotic. Please forgive me."

Several people in Bowen repeatedly talked about where and where, and repeatedly praised the lively atmosphere here.

Only then did Chen Mu look at the middle-aged people around the old man. Each of these middle-aged people had a calm demeanor, and it seemed that they were those who held real power. It was the three who attracted Chen Mu's attention the most. An old man with all white hair, but his complexion is very rosy, and he speaks with a lot of breath, looking very energetic. His name is Buff, and he is an elder in the village who trains young children. Every child in the village will receive education under his hands when they are young.

The other looks a little gloomy, with dark eyes, long and narrow eyes, and the eyes are piercing between opening and closing, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling. Conrad is mainly in charge of discipline. If there is any dispute in the village, he is the final arbiter. In this regard, the patriarch will not intervene. People around are quite afraid of Conrad, even Li Duhong is honest in front of him.

The least noticeable one was a young man with a calm face, who was also the only young man beside the patriarch who didn't look over 30 years old. His eyes are always calm and consistent, giving people a very easy-going feeling. Kit, the boy in charge of the genealogy file in the village. His family is the most special family in the village, and his ancestors were designated as the family tree archives. Since then, this responsibility has also been passed down, and the person in charge of the genealogy file must come from his family. Kit, on the other hand, has been organizing and managing the family tree since he was seven years old. Now he is twenty-five years old, a full eighteen years old.

Organizing family trees and files is a very tedious task, but Kit never gets bored. He never played with other children in the village. Although he was young, he rarely developed a calm temperament, and he was very popular with the patriarch. And he's also known as the most knowledgeable guy in the village, but not everyone likes him. In the atmosphere of advocating strength and pursuing power, no one except Kit is willing to spend time on things that cannot improve power, such as genealogical files.

"This is Xiaosan. He happened to meet everyone that day, so he wanted to observe secretly. He didn't expect to cause a misunderstanding between the two parties, and he regretted it very much. Today, he specially asked him to apologize to everyone." The old man said with a heavy face.

Xiaosan is not tall, only about 16.5 meters, a little shorter than Cheng Yingshang, but he looks extremely thin, with long hands and feet and quick eyesight. He made a gesture to salute, but Bo Wen hurriedly stopped him, and said with a smile: "Since it is a misunderstanding, both parties are at fault. What the little third brother did made it even more difficult for us. Haha, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, and you can make friends so much. With so many friends, the few of us already feel extremely lucky.”

Bo Wen was very knowledgeable, seeing the other party going down the steps, he hurriedly followed.

"Haha, it makes sense! It makes sense!" Only Buff's hearty voice was heard: "If you don't fight, you don't know each other! You young people, you should make love to these little brothers. There are mountains beyond mountains, young people, It’s always good to see more of the world.”

Several young people in the village responded quickly.

Xiaosan looked at Chen Mu rather unnaturally. Running desperately that day, his injury worsened, and he fell into a coma as soon as he returned to the village. In a coma, Chen Mu's ghostly figure was like a nightmare, following him like a shadow, chasing him so nervous that he could hardly breathe.

As soon as he saw Chen Mu, the dream when he was in a coma involuntarily appeared in front of his eyes, and his eyes immediately dodged a little.

"Walk around, we can't starve our distinguished guests, you should also try our village's food and see if you can get used to it." The patriarch joked with a smile.

Since he had just gnawed a deer leg at Weah's place, Chen Mu didn't have much appetite. He casually ate some fruits, the sweetness of the fruits here was not comparable to those sold in Dongshang Weicheng. He's more interested in the little things here.

For example, a grill that can adjust the temperature is a typical card. There is also an ice bucket, which is also very interesting. It looks no different from an ordinary bucket. Pour water into it, and it only takes three minutes for the water in the bucket to freeze into ice cubes. Then I saw the villagers pour the ice cubes in the bucket on a piece of felt, and then use a slender light knife to cut the big ice cubes into small pieces.

The level of metal smelting here is very high, all tableware is made of metal, and each piece is engraved with fine and beautiful patterns.

Unlike Chen Mu, a country bumpkin, Bo Wen's eyes are much more vicious. After only a short while, his face became a little strange. Where is this backcountry

If you look around, you can see that almost every villager has gems or something hanging around their necks, and Bowen's eyes are about to fall out. Naturally, these gems are not a big deal, but if thousands of villagers hang one or even a few around their necks, Bowen feels like he is going crazy. There is also the floor here, each piece is polished from a complete zebra stone. Those black and white stripes like zebras all show their expensive status. On the outside, each piece of such a zebra stone floor is a sky-high price. In his house, this kind of expensive floor is only used in such a small place as the collection room. But here, my God, the entire auditorium is made of this floor that is more expensive than gold.

His eyes are shining, there is so much wealth here! He quickly calculated in his mind, if he could establish a trade with this village, the profit from it...

Bo Wen didn't know how to eat, Chen Mu was already half full, and among the three, only Cheng Ying ate very happily. The food here is delicious, she has never had such good food.

The hall was noisy, except for the curious eyes that floated over from time to time, basically no one came up to disturb.

"Patriarch, is this the guest who injured Xiao San?" Suddenly, an untimely voice appeared.
