Poison Tongue and Sleepy Demon King
Chapter 1 Commission
Most cities are named after great figures and meaningful words, but the founder of the Baixiang Empire is a rather unusual guy.He is proficient in magic and good at war, but his writing memory is close to zero, so when he ascended to the throne and named each piece of territory he laid down, he used the naming method of one, two, three, four, five, six, and seven very honestly .
For this reason, most of the courtiers suppressed their indignation and politely put forward suggestions on this incredible decision, and the founding emperor was also quite willing to listen to the opinions of the courtiers, so he gave them the right to name their respective territories—— As a result, about two or three months later, the courtiers completely succumbed to the powerful memory that His Majesty the King could not remember the names of the cities at all, but could clearly remember the faces of each of their city lords. , decided to use double names for the benefit of the major cities as well as for their own sake.
Seven Cities, also known as Boers City.
This border city has not been very stable recently.Starting about two or three months ago, monsters began to gather outside the city, far more than half a year ago.These monsters couldn't break through the city walls, but they could easily destroy the villages and farms around the Seven Cities, causing economic and human losses of varying sizes to the entire Seven Cities territory.
The victimized villagers cried bitterly day and night, constantly filling the mailbox of the lord's feedback office with various letters, and at the same time had to hire some mercenaries at their own expense to deal with the monsters for them.This situation even made the residents inside the walls of the Seven Cities restless, so they began to help the villagers outside the city to fill the lord's mailbox with letters.
To sum up, after summing up the losses in the past few months, a certain Earl, who is the lord of the Seven Cities, put on a heartbroken expression, and wandered the entrustment of eliminating monsters to every corner of the city, hoping to be able to defeat the monsters. The mercenary group and lone warriors can take over this task.
As for why not use military force?This question has to be asked to the Earl himself.
When David Xi walked to the notice board, noon had just passed by quietly, and the dazzling sunlight slanted on the side of the notice board, illuminating the grayish-yellow paper on the wooden board quite dazzlingly.
He was dressed plainly, looking like a swordsman who traveled all over the world full of enthusiasm before graduating from the academy——His upper body was covered with a coat made of coarse linen, and the cloth coat and Leggings seem to be just cheap products that can be bought with a dozen copper coins on the roadside.And the only thing on his whole body that is worthy of people's attention for a few seconds is his pair of boots that are still intact after thousands of miles.
There is another difference between David Xi and those reckless young swordsmen, that is, he does not have a sword.That's why passers-by don't notice him, because his outfit doesn't look like a heroic knight, nor a brave man who can kill monsters with a sword.
In fact, he really is a brave man - and the kind that has long been famous.
He stood in front of the notice board and observed the notices for a while, then tore off the entrustment that the mission was to eliminate monsters, and walked into the tavern behind the notice board.
tavern.As the name suggests, this is a place that mainly serves drinks and snacks, but in most cases, places such as taverns will become a gathering place for a large number of rough guys and girls who worship powerful people.Occasionally, if there are a few normal people who don't want to get drunk, they will put on cloaks or sit in an inconspicuous corner in advance, so as not to be inexplicably involved in disputes.
The so-called disputes are similar to this: a big man laughs and brags about his heroic deeds, then keeps molesting the little girl, and starts dancing when he gets excited, and finally steps into the pub where the daughter just used the mop. In the sewage bucket, he fell on all fours.What's more, most of these poor people who unfortunately fell to the ground would throw buckets at the crowd in anger, which eventually became the fuse that caused the group to fight.
However, because of the existence of these people, the interior of the tavern has become noisy but warm, and the taverns everywhere have always been favored by people.
As soon as David Xi walked into the gate of the tavern, he saw seven or eight people gathered in a corner on the left, whispering in twos and threes.They all had their backs to the tavern gate, so Davidi couldn't see their expressions, nor could he see what was surrounded by them, but in view of his previous experience in the tavern, he decided to ignore it for the time being.
After retracting his gaze, he straightened the neckline of his jacket a little, then went straight to the tavern owner, pulled up a chair in front of the owner and sat down, and said, "Hello."
"Hey, welcome, handsome guest." The tavern owner has a fat belly and two small beards under his nose, but his expression looks kind, "A handsome man is always attractive, you need me Can you help me, sir? We offer many different kinds of drinks and food here, so you can take a look."
"Thank you for your compliment." Davidi accepted the boss's compliment with a calm expression, then took out a few silver coins from his pocket and put them on the long table between them, and said, "I want to ask about the new coin released by the Earl. entrusted."
"Oh! You are not the first person to ask me about this matter." The boss accepted the few silver coins with a smile, then looked around to make sure no one was listening to them, and then Explained: "You should have accepted the commission, right? Although the commission clearly stated the cause and effect of this incident, it did not give the specific location and time of each monster attack. Hehe, this is only me who can sit What I heard from all the guests in the tavern."
David Xi nodded, motioning for the boss to continue talking.
"Since the monsters started invading the nearby villages, we have had a lot of wounded here." The boss brought a glass of fruit wine for David Xi as he spoke, and then took out two scrolls from under the table and handed them to David Xi, "Those wounded After the treatment in the nearby hospital, I will come to the tavern to chat with other wounded. I have nothing to do, so I will write down some of the information they mentioned, and then classify and summarize it. Hehe, those who are interested in this information There are still many friends."
David Xi thanked, and when he took the two scrolls, he heard the boss continue to say: "The bigger one is the distribution map of the nearby villages, and the smaller one is the text information. The locations are written down and marked on the map. But—"
The boss put down the dirty rag in his hand, looked up and down David Xi with some hesitation, and said, "I advise you to find more partners, although the people who will accept this commission are basically some well-known warriors, But there are quite a few people who never return. I don’t think you have a sword, nor do you carry any magic items, it’s not very good to go out, at least buy a better sword for self-defense.”
David Xi smiled, and said: "Those fancy swords in the weapon shop are more likely to attract thieves and robbers than they are used."
"Alas..." The boss sighed, shook his head and continued to dissuade, "you young people, you can see that you just graduated from the academy not long ago, and now it's not as peaceful as before. Although this is still a city, But it is very close to the city gate, and there are a lot of outsiders of all kinds, so it will be dangerous."
David Xi didn't intend to refute this kind boss - almost all his former subordinates were taught to cry by him in a calm tone, so he didn't want to use too sharp language to deal with people like the tavern owner, so as not to worry about it in the future. Nowhere to stay.
After putting away the two scrolls, he looked towards the corner of the tavern and changed the subject: "What happened over there?"
"Hehe, there are some newcomers around there every day." The boss smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't worry, it's just a diner who treats this place as a hotel. He has been sleeping there and only wakes up twice a day. Beckon me over to bring him some food and drinks, and then go back to sleep. Hey, handsome boy, I advise you not to mess with him, although he looks very weird, but my experience in running pubs for so many years tells me , that guy must not be an ordinary person."
"Where did you see that?"
"Uh... looks."
Dai Weixi didn't know how to answer this sentence for a while, so he could only look at the boss again, waiting for his explanation.
"He looks very...very handsome." The boss tried hard to find the words, and then gestured to David Xi and said, "Although I haven't talked to him much these days, and I haven't looked at his facial features carefully, but his appearance is at least No worse than you. And on top of that, he has silver hair—god, I've only seen a few elves with that hair color a few decades ago, before the elf dynasty collapsed, but He doesn't have pointed ears, so he must not be an elf...maybe it's dyed?"
"...Like bleaching clothes?" Dai Weixi couldn't help but made a not-so-advanced joke.
"Uh... almost."
Dai Weixi was silent for a few seconds, stood up and was about to leave the long table, "Thank you, I'll go check on that person's situation. Maybe he's suffering from alcoholism or met..." He paused, retracting the next words that he almost blurted out Unpleasant speculation, changed his words: "Or encountered other troubles."
"Take care, my friend, and may your journey be safe."
David Xi slowly walked towards that corner, and when he got closer, he realized that the people surrounding that corner had changed—and this group... probably was a group of weird people with different tastes.
He looked at the people in front of him with their backs turned to him with a strange expression, and couldn't help but look at their hair with strange shapes and different colors.
"I heard from the hotel owner that this guy has been asleep for two or three days, right?" The man with the green spiral hair asked the few partners beside him.
"Yeah, thanks to him being able to sleep so well, won't he get a headache after sleeping for a long time?" The man with purple spherical hair asked immediately.
"Then what should I do? I also want to ask how he dyed his silver hair." The blood-red man spread his hands helplessly, "Why don't you wake him up?"
Dai Weixi finally sighed, retracted his involuntary gaze towards their heads, walked around to their left, gently pushed the shoulder of the person on the far left, and walked sideways into the circle of flowers and grass heads In the middle, he lowered his head slightly and looked at the guy who was half lying on the bench in the corner.
This guy wears a hood so that people can't see his face clearly, but his long silver-white hair, praised by the crowd around him, spread out along his neckline and fell on his side, only a short distance away. Just a little bit will rub off on a dusty floor.
From this point of view, David Xi can only tell that he is tall and thin, not sure if he is taller than himself, and there is no movement of any magic elements around him... But maybe it will be in this case Inside the robes are hidden sharp weapons, as most assassins do.
The people around looked at each other for a few seconds, dissatisfied with Dai Weixi's attitude of walking in front of them without saying a word, and were about to speak, when they were blown away by a sudden heat wave and hit the wooden wall of the tavern.The wooden wall was also of poor quality. After being hit by the bodies of these people, a big hole was pierced directly.The wailing of those flowers and grass heads soon came from outside the big hole, which sounded quite miserable.
David Xi also felt this heat wave, but this level of magic fluctuations could not cause any harm to him, so he simply picked up the innocent person lying on the chair, and took him along with this air current. Stepped back a little.
Probably another fight that often occurs in taverns.After thinking about it, David Xi flew out of the big hole in the wall. Just as he put down the man in his hand, he heard a mocking sound from the door of the tavern: "Haha! Look at these fledgling stinky brats, how old are they?" Do you dare to come out to form cliques because of your strength? It’s also thanks to them getting that weird look somewhere, and you can tell at a glance that they are from the same mercenary group or some other organization. I can buckle their clothes with two swords Pick them all apart without hurting the flesh!"
After the man finished speaking, there were many echoing voices from inside and outside the tavern. It sounded like this guy should be considered a small boss.
From what he said, it sounds like this person should be targeting those guys with colorful heads, but since he was also affected, and the contemptuous gaze of that person also made him and the sleeping guy on the ground It was included in it, and it also smashed a hole in the tavern of the kind owner just now, so Dai Weixi still thinks that this kind of harming the innocent is really not worthy of beating.
He glanced at the flower and grass head who was still lying on the ground and screaming, and then turned to the guy at the door of the tavern who looked up and laughed like an idiot who walked out of a story book, and asked, "Using your hand to sharpen it a few times?" Can you reveal the broken copper and iron sword under the silver-plated appearance, and your swordsmanship that can be easily defeated by a mouse with a small piece of stolen meat when poking a mouse hole?"
