Dragon and knight Ji gl

In the river on the pasture, the river flows quietly as before.The surface of the water is calm, there are no fish in the water, not even aquatic plants, but a thin shrimp floats from nowhere, bouncing its gray translucent body, moving in the water, it seems that it is not suitable for the strange temperature of the water surface. It was hot, and quickly curled up under the stone.

Reflected on the surface of the water is a girl in a black robe and green eyes, that is Mai Ni.

"Tsk, I always feel that this account is that I? Can't get it back?" Minnie played with the gold sand coin that Lev gave her in a bored manner, and rumpled her short black hair. , talking to himself irritably, "This? How did it become a business between me and the temple? How can the temple's money be so easy to get? Little Laif can't let me go to the priest to ask for an account..."

Mai Ni scratched her head and thought about it, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, "Could it be that I have to go to Lukefei Icefield to get it back? This? This amount of money... From the perspective of benefits, this? I will definitely be able to collect more along the way. Novel items, do a few deals. But? It's too far away... Besides? Little Laif didn't give me any proof, just talking in plain English, what should I use to ask for the bill... How did I agree, old lady? "

There were footsteps coming from behind. Minnie turned her head and saw it was Leif. She got up quickly and muttered, "At least I didn't ignore people for reneging." See? Leff is holding a ? Big package, jingling inside the package, asking, "This? What? What?"

The same thing in Leif's system backpack can be piled up infinitely, but? This? A pile of bottles and cans of different shapes, each? But it takes up a? Grid.The space is limited, and in desperation, Leif can only hold it in his hand, "Is it? The witch medicine I took from Pepys... I wonder if it can be used to pay for the bottle of painkiller..."

"I don't think it's enough." Mai Ni said.

"You haven't even seen it, why do you just say that?" Leif said, "You gave me only one bottle of medicine, and there are many bottles here. I still think this transaction is that you picked it up. Cheap."

"I said it was very expensive." Mai Ni said, "Although the bottle I gave you is not the most effective among all the painkillers, it is the most expensive. This is... a A bottle of medicine with a year? When it was born, the old temple calendar was still being used on the continent of Deia."

"The old temple calendar, at least? It's more than 900 years ago." Leif said, "The medicine of more than 900 years ago has been valid for a long time, can it still work?"

"What I want to say is not? This? What does Little Laif care about the expiration date? The medicine I can sell you is of course a useful medicine." Mai Ni said, "As part of this bottle of medicine ingredients Planting grass and two kinds of insects are now extinct, that is to say, even if there is a formula for this bottle of medicine, it is difficult to make the same medicine again. A bottle of medicine that is old and difficult to replicate , do you think it’s worth one? Sky-high price?”

"But... but you aren't? You clearly said, isn't this bottle of medicine effective? It's the best..." Leif was a little flustered by Mai Ni's words. She put the package containing bottles and cans on the ground, carefully He took out the remaining half bottle of painkiller, shook it, and there was more than half of it left.She just reminded the little girl feeding the medicine to save some, and now she can't help feeling a little thankful for it, "This? Is it? The rest... I'll give it back to you..."

"The effect of medicine is not only measured by efficacy," Mai Ni opened the medicine bottle, leaned in front of Leif, and fanned it with her hands, "You smell this? It smells, is it? Isn't it? It's kind of old? A long-lasting fragrance?"

"I can just smell something like rotten wood." Leif answered frankly.

"It's not just a bottle of medicine, it's also an antique, a luxury." Mai Ni said, "You not only have to pay for the effect, but also for its age, for that extinct one." Grass and two kinds of insects pay the bill, do you think it is? Is this a truth?"

Medra leaned on Laifu's shoulder, and said, "Don't believe Laifu, she is just blackmailing you." She had a good impression of the black cat next to Mai Ni, and she even liked Mai Ni a little. At this moment, he angrily said to Minnie, "How can you bear to bully her just because Lev is...a foolish little fool?"

"Hey, what are you talking about?" Leif was a little embarrassed by Medra's words.

Mai Ni held up the bottle and said, "I've always been...not selling fake products, and I'm not going to lie or cheat people when doing business."

"Even if you didn't lie to me, but..." Leif said, "What I wanted at the beginning was just ordinary potions, why did you give me such expensive ones..."

"This? Isn't it? Little Laif said it himself? You are the one who 'made the dragon give birth to a disease'. You are such a 'good skill?'. If I choose the most effective medicine for you, Instead of picking the most expensive one for you, that is, looking down on your ability. I was afraid that you couldn't afford it, little Laif. I reminded you twice and three times that it was expensive, and you still didn't care? If you wanted to say, 'It's cheap', I wouldn't give you this kind of medicine." Minnie said as if she was wronged, but she was chuckling in her heart.

This bottle of ancient medicine was found by her in the process of clearing the inventory. It was just an ordinary bottle of medicine when it was put into the warehouse. It was forgotten in a corner and was not sold. It has been accumulated for nearly a thousand years After being ashes, Mai Ni saw its value.After all, any ordinary thing can be sold at a sky-high price as long as it adds the two attributes of rarity and antiquity, which is what it should be.It's a pity that this bottle of ancient medicine is priceless. If I miss Leif, I'm afraid I won't be able to find another chance to sell it.

"This medicine is so expensive, I'm afraid there is no reason to ask the temple for money." Minnie naturally didn't believe that Leif could afford the price of this bottle of medicine, but after all Leff had Natia Vida by her side, "I think little Laif is a?reasonable person, and has a lot of 'capability?', so he won't renege on his debts."

Medra leaned in Leif's ear and said, "What she means is that you can put this account on the dragon."

"..." Leif was momentarily surrounded by Mai Ni.She remembered that Head Hilton always warned them not to do things beyond their duties, and felt that this warning was very reasonable.If you complete the tasks as required, you will be paid accordingly, but once you make some commitments beyond the tasks, troubles will follow.

But this time, being scammed by Mai Ni was also because she let down her vigilance in a hurry, and it was her fault after all.Leif and Minnie have been together for many days, how many? Know the latter?Minnie was...a...queer little girl--literally, a little old lady, though Leff sometimes forgot--not a bad person, but kind of mean.Mai Ni really wants to do business with people, but the purpose of doing business is not so much "greedy for money", but rather "enjoying the refreshing feeling of seeing people suffer a dark loss".

The troubles that can be solved with gold sand coins are not considered big troubles. Leff glanced at the currency value on the system interface, and thought that Mannie's asking price was just ? It's just a drop in the bucket.But when she thought that these gems were given to her by Natia Vida in the name of "beautiful gift", Leif dared not use them.As for the gold coins she earned by doing quests... Well, she still has an egg to raise after all.

Leif was unrelenting, and continued to try to persuade Minnie: "But? Didn't Pepys' painkiller? Give it to you? At least? In terms of effectiveness, his medicine is much better than yours..."

"Me too? I just discovered that Pepys' medicine is only... for the pain of the animal nucleus, and it has no effect on the rest of the pain. The principle of its effect is to form a barrier film on the surface of the animal nucleus. "Mai Ni said, "I can't find any other buyers for this medicine other than these half-human half-beasts."

"Mai Ni, don't bully Miss Knight." Natia Vida walked slowly and said slowly, "I see that your ancient medicine is worth the same as these unknown witch medicines, so we exchanged them like this stop."

"I thought you really wanted Little Laif to owe you something..." Mai Ni restrained her momentum, and said softly, "...This? Isn't it? It's what you said at the beginning."

"Speaking of it," Natia Vida said with a smile, "I still need to help Miss Knight to collect a debt from you."

"That's good, I accept." Mai Ni picked up the package full of unknown witch medicine, opened it for a look, then threw it into the cloth bag, turned to the water, and remained silent.

Leif walked up to Minnie and held out a small hand.

"What does this mean?" Mai Ni glanced at her.

"Now that the deal has been concluded, the deposit..." Lev said in a low voice, and Natiavi gave her an encouraging look.

Madeira chimed in: "A deposit is required!"

Mai Ni took out the gold sand coin and stuffed it back into Leff's hand. Knowing that Leff was short of breath, she snorted coldly and said, "If you rely on the magic dragon to help you, you will buy and sell by force and bully me? Old man , I really didn't expect that little Leif turned out to be such a knight."

Seeing that Natia Vida's lips moved slightly, and just about to say something, Medra spoke first, "You, blackmail people first!"

Minnie narrowed her eyes, and smiled?

Leif had just dealt with Pepys, a genuine witch, but seeing Minnie's smile, she still felt a little terrified.

"Don't scare me!" Madeira waved her small fist at Minnie.

Leif didn't know what happened to Medra, and she had been deliberately avoiding her for the past few days.After finally coming back, he turned into a fierce person who loves to quarrel with others. He was fierce with the dragon just now, and now he is fierce with Mai Ni.After much deliberation, could it be that he stole a drop of blood from Elena, and thus got some temper?

Leff took back the gold sand coins, and the dragon egg at her waist suddenly moved, and she stuffed the gold sand coins into the small cloth pocket, and the dragon egg stopped immediately, as if very happy.

Looking at Minnie's back, Leff said: "We are like this... It seems really not good... After all, Minnie is old..."

"If she wants to sell her old age in front of me, I'm afraid she won't be able to do it." Natia Vida said, "Compared to me, an 'old man', Minnie is still a child, Miss Knight is ? Smaller children."

Leif choked.

Madeira boldly said: "You also know that Leif is very young, you two are three thousand years old... you? An old dragon, why do you bully such a small Leif?"

Natia Vida blinked at Leif innocently, and said pitifully, "Am I old? Miss Knight thinks I'm old? Are you old?"

"It's not old, it's not too bad." Leif shook his head quickly, "You can't judge old and young by age alone, the maturity age of different species is different. Maybe Natia Vida is still young .”

"Yes? Ah, I'm still young." Natia Vida rolled her eyes, "I have to take care of me, sister Knight."

Leif was pleased by the sound of "sister".

"Tsk." Madeira blocked her ears, "Shameless, really shameless."

--

Slipper Grassland, an unnamed place in Gaby County.

Many small hills no more than a hundred feet high rise and fall continuously, and a thin river runs through the hills.If any outsiders come here, they will be surprised, because there is no grass on the hills.If you get closer, you will find that these hills don't even have soil, they are all bare rock.

This place is rather abrupt on the grassland, but this place is sparsely populated, so no outsider will notice the strangeness of this place.

Old Burt's family were nomads who moved here a few years ago, just a few miles south of the hills.The old shepherd still remembered that these hills were originally a meadow, and he once grazed here.But there is a shallow river here, and once a sheep swims to the other side, he has to go across the water to bring the sheep back, which is very troublesome.So Burt chose to go to the south to graze. When he came to this grassland again, he found that there were many hills suddenly raised here.

Old Bert told the newly moved herdsmen that the place where these hills are located used to be a pasture, but everyone who heard it laughed. He was old and confused, and gradually even Old Burt himself began to doubt his own memory. Yes? No really something went wrong.

It was getting late that day, and old Bert was driving the sheep back when he suddenly heard a tremor from the north.Then the sheep ran wildly to the north as if they had been stimulated by something.

Old Bert could only catch up on his old horse.

It was mid-winter at this time, with fine dry snow floating, and the grass everywhere was withered, yellow and shriveled.

However, where the flock stopped, it was as warm as spring, and the snowflakes had already melted before they even landed.What's even more astonishing is that there is a lush pasture growing here.

"Bless the High Priest, what is this? What's going on?" Old Bert recognized that this place was the location of the hill that suddenly appeared, but now it has returned to grassland.

Before he recovered from his surprise, the sheep had lowered their heads and chewed, and even the old horse had aroused its appetite and just ate grass, refusing to move.

Old Burt got off his horse, rubbed his eyes, and found that there were many stoves around, and a few strange-looking sheds not far away.

"Regardless of where it was originally, this pasture is owned by the owner. If you are caught by the owner, you will be in trouble." Old Burt said to himself, looking at the familiar road Xiao He, who was unfamiliar again, twitched the corner of his mouth a few times.

He rode on the old horse and slapped the whip on the horse's buttocks a few times. The old horse was unsympathetic? It moved a few steps reluctantly.Old Burt whistled, sucking his lips, and waving his arms at the flock.Usually at this time, the sheep should obediently go back with him, but this time? Maybe because they haven't eaten such fresh grass for a long time, these sheep are reluctant to leave and ignore old Burt's words whistle?

"It's not an exaggeration to expose his corpse to the wilderness." Natia Vida said, "Although the corpse doesn't feel pain. But...according to the human point of view, how much is it to let those who have been killed by him know his tragedy? ? You can also get some comfort."

There's no need to go back with a dead body that doesn't speak.As a real witch, what Pepys did and did deserves the title of "witch". Here, he ordered the half-human and half-beasts to kill. What Leif saw with her own eyes, if she hadn't stopped it in time, it would have caused irreversible consequences.As for how many people and evils Pepys had done elsewhere, she knew nothing, but she could guess it.

"Do you think that if someone came here at dark and saw a skeleton on the ground, wouldn't he be frightened? And he died of poison, and the meat on his body was also poisonous. Cats and dogs bitten It's not good to poison him." Lively dug a deep pit with a machete, buried Pepys in it, and filled it with soil.Facing the slightly raised mound, Laifu stood still, feeling a little empty.

"Wow, my dear master? Although he is not a professional digger of graves, but... this person's burial is really wonderful!" Madeira cheered.

The corner of Leif's mouth moved slightly, but he didn't answer the villain's words.A rough plank was taken, and the surface was smoothed with a machete, and the name "Peppys" was scrawled on it with the point of the knife.It was only at this time that Leff realized that she didn't even know the guy's last name, and the space reserved for the inscription "the name of a certain place" on this crude tombstone was also empty. As for the time of death, since Pepys hated the Temple so much, it was natural that he would not use the Temple calendar.So, in the end, there was only one name on the upper left foot on the wooden board.

"Wow, it's a good thing my dear master didn't learn wood engraving, otherwise, wouldn't such wonderful engraving make colleagues feel ashamed and indignant?" Madeira continued to praise with her eyes closed.

A compliment that is far from the truth sounds like sarcasm.

"Medara, enough..." Leff admired his poor engraving, but barely reached the level where he could recognize what was engraved.

"I'm telling the truth." Medra said, "Can't I tell the truth? Look at this? Ingenious structure, this? Unbelievable? Trend of brushwork..."

Leif decided to ignore the villain, looked at the tombstone and said, "Commander Leopold, whom he admires so much, will he come here to take back his bones?"

Natia Vida just laughed? He didn't speak.

Leif inserted the plank into the upper end of the mound, and stepped on the soil on the side.

The surrounding fires are still burning, but? The fire is not as strong as usual.

Another fine snowfall fell from the sky, Laif gathered up his clothes, and reached out to catch a few snowflakes: "It's so strange, this? The weather."

Natia Vida reached out her hand and was about to cover Leif's hand.

However, Medra took the lead and rushed to Leif's palm and lay flat, spreading her hands and feet, as if she was king of the land.

Natia Vida pinched the cloth on the villain's belly and lifted her up: "Why do you have to mess with me?"

Medra thumped in the air, yelling, "Live, look at this dragon—she bullied me, bullied me..."

Between Natia Vida and Medra, Leif generally favors the latter.After all, the magic dragon is very powerful, but the villain will die if he pinches it.But? This time? She also felt that Medra was a little abnormal.Usually, this villain would always speak well of the magic dragon to Leif, and would clean her up and tie her up and send her to the magic dragon, but this time he completely changed his temper.Leif himself didn't dare to take Natia Vida's wishes casually, but Madeira lost her temper somehow, and deliberately challenged Natia Vida several times.Leif knew that Natia Vida would not hurt herself, but she couldn't guarantee that she would tolerate Medra.

"Unfortunately." Leif lip-synced to Medra.

Natia Vida reached out and tapped Medra's small head, and the eloquent villain suddenly stopped talking.Natia Vida's lips moved, she didn't know what she said to the villain.

Madeira's eyes widened and she shook her head frantically.

Natia Vida and Medra exchanged a few glances, and the latter slumped and was put back on Leif's shoulders.

Madeira grabbed Leif's collar and finally stopped.

--

Most of the half-humans and half-beasts gathered near the warehouse, and soon after drinking the potion given by Pepys, they gradually woke up.

After asking them a few words and making sure that they had no intention of attacking, the children untied the ropes and iron chains for them.

The bull monster who almost attacked Ian sat up and kicked the rope and iron chain away from his feet.

"Do you remember what happened just now?" a girl asked.

"I just remember my stomach hurting and itching, and then I don't know anything." The bull monster scratched the back of his neck, "I don't remember who I was? How did I pass out? Am I? Wasn't I? What I shouldn't have done What happened?"

"Thanks to Live Bai," Ian said, "I haven't had time yet."

Only a few bloodstains from scratching were left on the belly of this? bull monster minion. The scars were not very deep, only equivalent to being lightly whipped a few times with a whip, and the wounds had already begun to scab.

The few who broke free from the rope late? They were half-human and half-beast, and they were knocked down by Leif without much injury.

And the most seriously injured one? A horse monster. Its nails are full of blood, broken hair and fine pieces of meat. If not? There is a thick layer of fat blocking it, and the stomach will almost be dug out.

When Laif entered the warehouse, the monster horse was dressing up with medicine.How much did the children blame the horse? There was some grievance, and no one helped it, so it could only take medicine to treat the wound by itself.

The horse monster was near where Pepys was just now, and as soon as he sat up, several pieces of meat piled up on his belly.It hummed a light tune freely, stretched out its hand to break off a circle of flesh without changing its expression, found the wound, applied a dressing, and then wrapped it with a cloth strip.

Leff listened to the tune hummed by the horse monster, and saw its calm appearance in the face of serious injuries. He almost thought that this horse monster had amazing ability to endure pain. After thinking for a while, he realized that it was the painkiller given by Mai Ni effect.

"How do you feel? Do you have any numbness?" Leif asked.

Seeing the knife on Leif's back, the horse monster shrank his neck and stammered, "No...except that it doesn't hurt, everything is normal...even if it is? Now let me go to work... ...you can also..."

Leff glanced at the other monsters outside the warehouse again, and found that most of them could stand up and walk around, and their movements didn't seem to be sluggish.

Usually, while painkillers relieve pain, there will always be side effects such as limb stiffness and unconsciousness.Mai Ni said that she was given the most expensive medicine instead of the most effective medicine, but there is a reason why the medicine is expensive, at least the current state of these half-human half-beasts does not affect their journey.Apart from the high asking price, Mai Ni really didn't cheat her in this deal.

Leif walked towards where Edwin and Stanley were, but heard a cold snort coming from the depths of the warehouse.Looking towards the source of the sound, I saw a girl with black hair and green eyes sticking her head out. It was Mai Ni.

"What are you doing here?" Leif asked.

"Let's see how my new medicine works?" Minnie sighed, "Old lady, I'm not like Little Laif, I have Natia Vida to rely on, after all, I want to make a living."

"... What is the effect?" Laph remembered? Lai Mi Ni had given this? The grass who drank the grass, and Stanley was beaten by her before the medicine seizures. But Edwin's fall was all due to the medicine.

"I'll be unconscious for a few days after it takes effect," Mai Ni said leisurely, "It's hard to say at the moment, it could be two or three days as short as it is, and five or six days as long as it is."

"Is it so long?" Leif's eyelids twitched. She thought that Mai Ni didn't cheat her just now, but now she wants to take back this sentence.

Minnie caught a hint of disappointment in Leff's tone, she immediately let go of her anger, rolled her green eyes, and asked, "Little Leff is here? What is it doing here?"

"Just wandering around." Leif came to interrogate these two people.She hopes to get the news she wants as soon as possible on this isolated pasture, where she can control the overall situation; If she is taken away by the officials on the special grassland or the people from the temple, maybe she will lose the initiative in dealing with the player's affairs.

"The matter here is almost settled, I think these children want to go home." Minnie guessed half of Leff's thoughts, knowing that she wanted to stay for a while, but why That is? To go against her, "Although Shirley doesn't say anything, she should miss little Elena very much. I wish I could see her sooner. Little Laif, what do you think?"

"There is really no reason to stay here anymore." Leff glanced at Stanley and Edwin, "Tonight at the earliest, or tomorrow morning at the latest, we have to leave."

Minnie curled her lips into a smile?The eyelids drooped, the skin darkened, wrinkles and spots appeared on the face, and even the nose enlarged and drooped.In the blink of an eye, she changed from a sweet and wicked young girl to a spooky old lady.She took out her cane, knocked on the ground a few times, bent her back, and her tall body shrank a little more than before.

Leff was so intimidated that he took a step back, watched Mai Ni go out from the warehouse door, and then remembered to get down to business: "You haven't told me how to get rid of the child drug..."

Thinking of Leif's frightened appearance, Minnie was inexplicably happy, her back was hunched, her cane frequently touched the ground, and instead she quickened her pace.

Leif chased to the door, her waist tightened, and then her feet flew into the air, and she was embraced by Natia Vida, who had recovered her adult? female form.

Natia Vida squeezed Lev's face as if she was playing, rubbed her chin on the top of Lev's head, and said: "If Miss Knight doesn't agree to get married, it doesn't matter if you keep this? "

"Is this? A threat?" Leif said.

"It's not a threat." Natia Vida smiled softly, "It's just a sincere compliment. I also like Miss Knight's current appearance."

At this moment, a stranger's voice and an old male voice came: "Monster! Ah——"
