Chapter 13 The Weapon Shop and the Ambush
In the hotel room, Tang Zhen and Qianlong were chatting.
Hearing Qianlong said, he has been busy selling the food left by Tang Zhen in the past two days. After shopping around, he finally chose to sell these "exquisite" food to this grocery store because they gave the highest price.
The result is that Tang Zhen, the grain and oil that are not valuable in this world, sold at a good price in another world, and the most valuable ones are the seasonings.
For the natives in another world, the food cooked by these seasonings is very delicious.
While speaking, Qianlong handed these brain beads to Tang Zhen at the same time.
Tang Zhen pointed out a hundred of them and handed them to Qianlong. Qianlong refused to accept them, but Tang Zhen still forced him to accept them. He didn't care about this little brain bead, he cared about Qianlong.
Qianlong reluctantly took these brain beads and said that he had a fancy to a piece of equipment. Now that he had these brain beads, he would go back to buy them at the weapon store.
Tang Zhen said: "Anyway, we have nothing to do, so why not go to the weapons store in the town to take a look."
He said, with the idea of investigating in his heart. After all, the price of weapons is so high, it would be a lie to say that he is not moved. Now, taking advantage of this opportunity, he can go for a survey.
Qianlong couldn't wait, so he set off immediately.
After walking out of the hotel side by side, they walked along the messy street and soon arrived at the weapons store that was separated from the grocery store.
The weapon shop is called Blade Feng, which is written in a strange text. Qianlong doesn't recognize it, and the name is also what people say.
Tang Zhen remembered that there was a transfer of automatic language and text in the mobile phone app mall. The download price was 10,000 gold coins. It seemed that when the funds were sufficient, you can download it to try the effect.
This weapon store faces the street, with several rows of wooden weapon racks, and there are many swords and weapons hanging on them, which shines in the sun.
The wooden frame inside is equipped with armor and armor, which are of all kinds, but the disadvantage is that it is basically not beautiful.
At the innermost part of the weapon store, Tang Zhen also saw several muskets hanging on the wall, as well as daggers and a flint gun placed on the counter.
I tried these weapons, with sharp edges, moderate weight and good quality.
Qianlong saw Tang Zhen carefully and said, "These are ordinary weapons, but the prices are not low. Ordinary wanderers can't afford them."
When Tang Zhen heard this, he heard the implication and couldn't help asking: "Are these weapons very good? So according to your opinion, there are weapons that are even better than these."
"Of course there is, but ordinary wanderers like us cannot get in touch with them."
Qianlong talked happily and continued: "That weapon is called a magic weapon, divided into nine stars, and the materials used for forging are rare and precious, so it has strange abilities and is called attributes by craftsmen. While this weapon is expensive, it is also a symbol of identity and strength."
As the two of them were talking, they had already entered the weapon store.
Looking around, in the backyard of the weapon shop, several blacksmiths were waving their hammers, guarding the stove and sweating profusely, and knocking the red iron bars on the anvil into the form of a sword.
There were more than a dozen people next to him as assistants, working together.
Weapons are also placed in the store, but these weapons appear more sophisticated than outside.
Tang Zhen pulled out a slender sword and looked at it. He saw that the blade was about ninety centimeters long, the handle and scabbard were made very exquisitely, and the mirrored light on the blade was polished to tell the eye. It was also very smooth when waving it in his hand, and the blade with cold light seemed very sharp.
Tang Zhen liked this knife very much, so he asked the guy what the price was. The other party's answer was that the price was 280 white brain beads.
When Tang Zhen heard about this price, he couldn't help but be shocked.
Brain beads are very important to me, but having a good weapon to defend themselves is even more important, but relatively speaking, brain beads are more valuable. Therefore, Tang Zhen could only sigh and let them go back.
Looking back at Qianlong, this guy was fiddling with a short bow, looking quite fond of love.
The short bow's bow is not known what material is used, it presents a purple-red color, but the surface is densely covered with green patterns like meridians. The bow string is black and seems extremely flexible, but it does not cut the hand.
Qianlong tried to pull it, which was a little difficult and seemed to be quite large.
Tang Zhen smiled when he saw this. It turned out that Qianlong was interested in this thing!
There is a set of bows and arrows in his storage space. I dare not say that the quality is better than what he fiddled with, but at least I don’t have to spend my brain beads. You can tell that it’s valuable when looking at the appearance of this short bow. I guess Qianlong just came here to enjoy his hands.
I will give the set of bows and arrows directly to Qianlong. I will buy a few more sets to prepare when I go back next time, and I may not be sure to use them.
Thinking of this, Tang Zhen immediately pulled Qianlong back, and told him to turn around and give him a set of bows and arrows that were no worse than this.
Qianlong's eyes lit up when he heard this, but he was skeptical, but he still followed him to leave the weapon store.
When passing by the roadside stall in the market, Tang Zhen spent some brain beads and bought all the jewelry he had previously liked, and then put it into the storage space without anyone noticing.
After returning to the hotel room, Tang Zhen first told Qianlong about the Murong sisters, and then told him that he wanted to build a building city!
Qianlong was stunned by Tang Zhen's thoughts. It was difficult to become a resident of the Tower City in his heart, let alone establishing a Tower City. Did Tang Zhen, a guy, wake up?
"Are you... sure... really... want to build a building city?"
Qianlong asked stammeringly, staring at Tang Zhen.
"Of course I'm serious, and I won't give up halfway after I'm sure I'm sure. Man, are you interested in completing this feat with me?"
Qianlong supported his head with his hand and said in a slightly sarcastic tone: "I guess you must be crazy, but why do I have the urge to try in my heart?"
"Don't talk nonsense, do you do it?"
"Cao, the establishment of Loucheng failed, it's just a matter of death, I'll do it!"
"Don't be discouraged and tell me the truth. If you want to build the world's largest building city, then kill all the building cities of the alien race!"
Qianlong rolled his eyes when he heard this: "Kill those Louchengs built by alien races, haha... you have never seen the horror of those Loucheng soldiers of alien races. Now I'm sure you are really crazy..."
Although he felt that Tang Zhen was playing with fire, since he had joined Tang Zhen’s building city construction plan, Qianlong became serious.
The two began to discuss how to obtain the cornerstone, where to build the tower city, how to obtain the materials needed to build the tower city, and how to resist the monster siege after the construction.
If you don’t do it, Tang Zhen then realized that he wanted to build a building city. There were still many things he had to prepare, and in many aspects he was still blank. It seemed that his original idea was a bit simple.
Fortunately, now we have a preliminary plan, so the two of us can implement the plan as agreed upon.
Building a building city is not a trivial matter, so you still have to do a confidentiality job in the early stage, otherwise it will be a bit of a problem if you are mistreated by bad people. This way, the town will not be very safe, and the two and the Murong sisters must find a new residence as soon as possible.
However, living in a small town is also beneficial. It is convenient for trading, can withstand the attacks of monsters, and can also find out more information. Moreover, it is close to the tower city, and caravans and markets will be traded from time to time.
Tang Zhen even thought about finding an opportunity to enter the building city to explore.
Although the factory where the Murong sisters live now can accommodate them, Tang Zhen was afraid that the monster would appear in this ghost place, and he would eat it with the two sisters!
After asking Qianlong whether there is an ideal location for building a building city, Qianlong remembered that there is a place where it is hidden and easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it is not too far away from it.
That place was once a robber camp composed of a group of wanderers, with hundreds of people. Anyone who knows it will deliberately avoid that place.
Later I heard that this unlucky plundering group was destroyed by a powerful monster passing by, and the valley was empty since then.
Qianlong also accidentally discovered the location of the camp. Later, after the robbery group was killed, he also went there once, trying to search for some useful supplies, but unfortunately the place had been plundered by the wanderers who came first.
Since there is a suitable place, Tang Zhen will naturally find an opportunity to check it out on the spot.
However, the previous mission was to bring back the Murong sisters to avoid a change of time, so the two of them immediately set off, left the Wanderer Town and went straight to the abandoned factory.
Shortly after leaving the town, when the two passed by a dry vine forest, a chirping sound of birds came. Tang Zhen looked up and saw that it was a bird similar to a turtle dove, which looked quite plump.
Looking at the birds all over the trees, Tang Zhen turned around and asked casually: "You said you were often hungry before, so don't you usually hit these birds to eat?"
Qianlong shook his head and said, "What are you using to hit? Are you going to bow and arrow? I don't have one."
"Then you won't make one by yourself!"
Tang Zhen asked back.
Qianlong shook his head and said, "The kind of bow and arrow he made is not good at all. The range is too close and the power is too small."
Tang Zhen nodded when he heard this. He seemed to have read the introduction. A real bow has a very complicated process, and it is not just a rope that ties a bamboo to tie a rope. Although this world also has bows and arrows like bows and English longbows, it seems that there is no wood suitable for bow making. The plants in the wilderness he saw are mostly wild grasses and strange vines similar to trees, but they have never seen a single tree.
When walking was bored, Tang Zhen continued to talk about the topic: "Without bows and arrows, wouldn't you use traps and slingshots?"
"The harvest of traps is sometimes gone, and these birds have become elves, and often they are not fooled at all. And you also say slingshots, what is slingshot?" Qianlong asked in confusion.
"Is slingshot also a type of bow?"
Tang Zhen was stunned: "The slingshot is a slingshot, don't you know?"
Qianlong shook his head in confusion, indicating that he really didn't know!
When Tang Zhen heard this, he shook his head and told himself in his heart that this is another world and that he cannot think about things according to the ideas of this world.
After thinking of this, Tang Zhen just said that he would give Qianlong one again and stop talking about this topic.
The two of them had just walked far in the path covered with weeds, but Qianlong grabbed Tang Zhen's clothes with a serious expression and said softly: "Be careful, someone wants to rob the Tao and be ready to take action at any time!"
Tang Zhen was shocked and looked around calmly, but no abnormality appeared. However, Tang Zhen believed in Qianlong's intuition like a wild beast, which was the survival skills he had learned countless times in the process of fighting with the god of death.
When I opened the map, I saw that there were indeed many people hiding in the grass nearby, surrounded. Seeing this scene, Tang Zhen was immediately scared.
It seems that I am still careless!
