Into another world with Naruto

Chapter 28 The Incident

Meng Lande smiled and shook his head. This apprentice seemed to have changed since he became a mercenary. He used to be unable to beat a fart with a stick, but now he can't stop talking.

"I brought you wine today. I don't know where you will go tomorrow. I just treat you as an adult today and I approve that you can drink."

Li Xi couldn't wait to find two cups, rinsed them with water, and poured the wine that Meng Lande had brought. The fragrant wheat wine had a fragrant aroma, with a malty aroma. Although this wine was not a good wine, the price was It's not cheap either. It takes ten copper coins to buy a drink in the tavern. Ten copper coins is the living expenses of a poor family for two days.

Meng Lande opened the things he brought again, which were all cooked food, whole smoked chickens, and prepared river fish. They spread it out on a whole table. On this table, there were good things that Mido had not been able to eat on Thanksgiving Day before.

Meng Lande raised his glass and said, "Mido, after drinking this glass of wine, you will become an adult. You must know that a man must shoulder what he should shoulder. No matter what difficulty he has, he cannot knock you down. As an adult, The world is painful, but it is also happy.”

Li Xi raised his glass respectfully. Not anyone can say this to you. The person who can guide you at the critical moment is your life mentor. Just because Meng Lande can always remember Mido's birthday and protect him all the time , Li Xi can be willing to call him master,

"Thank you master."

The two drank it all in one gulp, and Li Xi clicked his tongue. It was very similar to the beer in his previous life, but it was not as soothing as the beer. The wheat wine here was more like inferior beer, and the craftsmanship was probably not up to standard.

Seeing Li Xi finish the drink without any strange expression, Meng Lande laughed and said, "So I think you are quite honest, but I didn't expect you to drink secretly behind my back."

Li Xi touched his head in embarrassment. In his memory, Mido had indeed never touched a drop of wine. It was indeed the first time he drank today with this expression. But the key point was that the soul in Mido's body was Li Xi. How would an adult who has drank countless times react to drinking this low-quality beer?

"Eat, eat quickly."

Meng Rande didn't say much about this matter. Which man didn't secretly drink alcohol before he became an adult? He even secretly drank his father's alcohol more than once before he became an adult.

Li Xi looked at the table full of food and felt really hungry. He ate like crazy. Meng Rand simply took a few bites and then drank by himself while watching Li Xi eat.

"Mido, although I don't know why you want to be a mercenary, it doesn't mean you can't come back. If you encounter difficulties, don't carry it alone. Come back to me. Your parents died on the front line back then. If you entrust it to me, I will take care of you for the rest of your life."

Li Xi nodded while eating frantically and said nothing. This feeling was too heavy and Li Xi was not prepared to repay it at all. He had earned so much money and completed so many tasks during this period, but his strength was still there. At this point, I didn't even go back to the blacksmith shop to take a look, just because I didn't know how to deal with this feeling.

For a child of just a few years old to be able to survive in a year of great turmoil and still keep his family property, you can tell with the hair of his head how much hard work Meng Lander put in.

Li Xi ate a table full of food like a storm, "Master, I have completed a lot of tasks during this period and earned a lot of money. I will give you a gift."

As he spoke, Li Xi took out the one-square-meter space ring that Aisi gave him, wiped off his spiritual imprint, and handed it to Meng Rand, "Master, this is a space ring with a very small space. I made it." I got it from the mission and gave it to you as a gift."

When Meng Lande heard that it was a space ring, he immediately held up his big palm and said, "This thing is too expensive. You don't have to give it to me. If you sell it, you can eat it for half your life."

Li Xi shook the silver ring on his finger towards Meng Rand, "I have something better, not to mention the money I make now will never be spent in a lifetime."

After saying that, he took Meng Lande's hand, scratched it with his finger lightly, and forced a drop of blood onto the space ring, and the binding was completed in an instant.

During the process, Meng Lande had not thought about struggling, but Li Xi's seemingly weak palms were as unshakable as steel bars. No matter how hard Meng Lande tried, Li Xi would not move at all.

Meng Lande completely recognized that the Mido in front of him was no longer the same Mido as before. He sighed slightly, but his eyes were full of pride. He put the space ring on his little finger, "It seems that I am getting old. Since you are so powerful, You are so strong, remember to be more filial and respectful to your master when you come back from now on, I will count on you to support me in my old age."

Such words could only be spoken by those closest to him. Li Xi puffed out his chest and imitated the giant mountain ape, patting his chest loudly. "Master, if you just close the door and go home now, I will take care of you." If I can afford you, it’s best to add a master wife, one is not enough, I can also support ten or eight, and I can support hundreds of junior brothers and sisters.”

"You boy..."

"Hahahahaha"

Meng Lande and Li Xi chatted until midnight before leaving. They talked a lot and were very miscellaneous, but they didn't mention any sad and painful things in the past. They were all things that happened recently, such as Andy falling asleep while standing while blacksmithing. Not because he was too tired, but because he had gone to watch a girl take a shower the night before. He was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. Andy still thought that no one knew about it, but it turned out that Andy himself didn't know about it. Everyone in the world knew it, even the little girl knew it, but she didn't expose it.

When Meng Lande said this, it was like telling a joke to Li Xi, but Li Xi knew what Meng Lande meant. Andy was about to get married. After he becomes an adult today, he can also find someone according to the tradition here. The daughter-in-law has started a family and is living a happy life.

This was the first time that Li Xi knew that honest people would tactfully urge marriage, and their words were so cryptic.

If it was Mido from the past, he would definitely not be able to hear it, but Li Xi is an old man, so he can't hear anything.

"Don't worry about your daughter-in-law. You have to find a good one, like Aisi, who has good strength, good figure, good looks, and money."

Li Xi sat on the roof and didn't sleep all night. With his current strength, it doesn't matter whether he sleeps or not. What's more, he has absorbed dragon blood. The essence of life has changed. To say that he is a human is better to say that he is Dragonborn, it doesn't matter if he doesn't sleep for months.

Facing the early morning sunshine, Li Xi came to the mercenary hall. He first looked at the familiar position, but Aisi, who he hadn't seen yesterday, was sitting there tiredly today.

"Sister Aisi, why are you so tired? Could it be that I went out to do a mission and you missed me so much that you couldn't sleep at night?"

Ais rolled her eyes angrily, "You're a little brat and you still dare to tease me. Believe it or not, I closed the mission system for you and blacklisted you for teasing the priest of the mercenary god."

Li Xi pretended to be scared, but he smiled again, "I became an adult yesterday, and I am not a kid. Besides, I didn't molest you. You can't blacklist me for personal gain. This is disloyal to the mercenary god." .”

Aisi was speechless, and finally squeezed out four words from her teeth, "Sharp teeth and sharp mouth."

After finishing the witticism, Li Xi asked back to what he originally asked, "Sister Aisi, have you gone on a mission?"

Aisi nodded, then thought about it and said seriously: "Speaking of which, this mission has a lot to do with you, I should talk to you about it."

"Oh? What mission?"

"You still remember the sewer mission I asked you to do, right?"

Li Xi nodded, of course he remembered that the horned devil also took away two of his steel needles on his head. Those were steel needles worth forty copper coins. If forty copper coins used to be his half month The ration money must be returned to that horned devil if there is a chance.

"Then do you know where the ground location of the Abyss Demon Monument you discovered is?"

Li Xi shook his head. I really don't know. I was almost surrounded by gophers underground at that time. Who knows where it is?

"where?"

"It's directly underneath the great businessman Belos Manor, which is where you met the demonized Frank when you went on a mission."

When Aisi said this, it was beyond Li Xi's expectation. She immediately smelled the strong atmosphere of conspiracy in it. There was a story in it. Her eyes widened and she asked, "Is it possible that the great businessman Belos was also raped?"

The word "traitor" specifically refers to those humans who betrayed the mainland and took refuge in the abyss. In the years of great chaos, rapes emerged one after another. Too many people with resentment in their hearts took refuge in the abyss, demonized themselves, and became traitors to retaliate against society.

Ais shook her head, "According to the information we have now, Belos did not seek refuge in the abyss, but his butler Bauer, who also made the abyss demon monument on the second underground floor."

"Bauer?"

Li Xi still had some impression of this old butler. When he went on the mission, he was an old guy who didn't even smile. After he killed Frank, he gave him ten gold coins to settle the matter. He didn't even say thank you. He didn't say anything. At first, he thought he had the temper to look down on their mercenaries. But now that Ais said this, this old butler was very abnormal.

Li Xi suddenly thought of the tunnel dug by Frank and the others, "Then the demonization of Frank and the others was also caused by Bauer?"

Aisi once again rejected Li Xi's guess, "No, it was quite the opposite. It was Frank and the others who wanted to sneak into the castle and steal something valuable, but ended up digging above the underground altar and were infected by the abyssal aura emanating from the Abyss Demon Monument. , if the aura of their Abyss Demonic Monument would not have been leaked, there would not have been the subsequent demonized gopher incident, and there would not have been your mission to clean the sewers, and then discover the Abyssal Demonic Monument, and finally be caught by us. handle."

Li Xi was speechless. After saying this, he should actually thank Frank and the others. This little thing actually caused so many chain reactions.

"Then did you catch him?"

"No, he ran away. The key is that he not only ran away, but also captured the city lord's youngest son. We have been busy with this matter for the past two days. Unfortunately, we searched Caddo City several times and found nothing. trace."

"This old guy is so powerful. He actually kidnapped the city lord's youngest son under the noses of so many experts. He is so scheming that I am not as good as him." Li Xi held out his thumb in admiration to express his admiration. The current situation of victory in the mainland You dare to do this, you are really not an ordinary person.

"Get out of here, you know how much trouble he caused." Aisi scolded Li Xi, "It's been two days since this happened, and now I can't hide it anymore. You will see the mission soon, at any level. Mercenaries can accept it, and as long as you successfully rescue the city lord's son, you can go to the city lord's treasure house, pick any piece of equipment, and you can get a lot of commission for providing clues."

The city lord's treasure house must be filled with treasures that cannot be seen outside. This condition is very tempting, but Li Xi is not interested. According to Aisi, the people of the city lord's mansion spent two days looking for the sacrifices of the major temples. There is no result. With these mercenaries who only learned the news two days late, it is better to buy lottery tickets and have a higher chance of winning the jackpot.
