Chapter 13 The dog sale
Seeing a stranger approaching, the three peasant women immediately extinguished. It would be bad if the stranger had contact with the gangster.
Horn smiled and greeted the alert peasant woman and continued to move forward.
He thinks he is a good person, but he is not a bad person who has to take care of everything. His kindness is limited to the premise that it does not affect himself.
Through the small village, Horn continued along the field path. According to the information provided by Auston, the old hunter lived on the opposite side of the hill outside the village. He had already seen the hill.
He walked around the hill and saw the house ten meters away, but was stunned for a moment.
Because he saw two gangs of people confronting inside and outside the yard of the house fence.
In the yard was a one-eyed hunter with a white head, followed by a brown bear the size of a ox, and three hunting dogs behind him. These four animals were well-trained and stayed quietly with their owners.
But if you think that these three bears and dogs are not ferocious because of An Jing, you will be very wrong. Their positions are all about the throat, heart and other vital points.
If ordinary people were stared at by the three bears, they would have collapsed to the ground, but the big man at the entrance of the yard looked as if nothing had happened and stared at the old hunter without squinting.
The man in short shirt is nearly two meters tall, with his thick eyebrows showing his perverse and violent appearance. His arms exposed outside are thicker than ordinary people's thighs. In addition, the grinding-like axe was injured, and he stood there like a human-shaped ferocious beast.
A thin man followed by a big man. Two daggers were inserted on both sides of the man's waist. His eyes were stolen and he looked like a thief.
There were seven or eight strong men standing behind the two. Although they didn't look like professionals, the physique of adults and the weapons in their hands still looked a bit deterrent.
Horn retreated quietly, it is better not to get involved in such troubles.
Woo ~.
The little wolf cub in the basket whimpered, and in the silence, the whimper was so bright.
The two confrontational teams turned their heads and looked at Horn, and his retreating movement froze.
Neither Horn had advanced nor retreated, and he stood there to bear the eyes of everyone. Suddenly, he became wise in a hurry.
"Hello, the manager Auston of the Adventurers Guild introduced me to visit His Excellency Hunter, but I seemed to be at the wrong time."
If you don’t look at monks and Buddha’s faces, the senior executives of the local Adventurers Guild are still somewhat respectful.
The man glanced at Horn, turned to the one-eyed hunter, and laughed boldly: "Hahaha! I have nothing else to mean here today! I just want to visit my old friend! Since you have something to do with me, old friend! Then say goodbye!"
One-eyed hunter squeezed out two words from his teeth: "No gift!"
The big man walked towards Horn with his men. His face froze and then returned to its original state. He saw the drunken man two days ago in the crowd.
Fortunately, the two drunk men did not recognize Horn, and the large group passed by Horn.
The great man and the thief took their men and horses to cross the hills and disappeared, leaving only Horn and the one-eyed hunter in the field.
The old hunter inserted the arrow from the bow and arrow back into the quiver on his back, looking up and down at Horn: "Stranger, what's the matter with me?"
Horn breathed a sigh of relief and lifted the black cloth on the basket, revealing the three little wolf cubs in the basket.
"I have two underground wolf cubs, are you interested?"
The old hunter suddenly realized: "Come in and talk."
As he said that, the old hunter turned around and walked into the house. The brown bear and the three hounds looked at Horn and followed the master's footsteps.
Horn also walked towards the house.
After entering the house, the old hunter first hung the bow and arrow and quiver on the wall, then took two pieces of meat from the wall, and the brown bear and three hunting dogs started eating happily.
Seeing the scene of four animals eating harmoniously, Horn made a preliminary judgment on the old hunter's level of animal taming.
Protecting food is the nature of animals. The stronger the wild beasts are, the more they are. Now the four are not fighting or robbing, which means they get along well, and it also shows that the old hunters are so clever.
"Sit as you like."
Horn sat on a wooden chair, put a male and female wolf cub on the table, and signaled the old hunter to inspect the goods.
The old hunter pointed at the snow point: "Isn't this just sold?"
"I'm useful to this one."
The old hunter sat opposite Horn and picked up a little wolf cub. The little wolf cub was picked up by a stranger. He first screamed in panic.
After the old hunter pressed it a few times, he calmed down and let the old hunter touch its smooth fur and made a comfortable hum.
After a while, the old hunter checked the two little wolf cubs: "One male and one female, two ordinary underground wolf cubs have certain cultivation value, but not high, and inbreeding has certain risks, one hundred and seventy gold coins per one."
“A reasonable price, transaction.”
"readily!"
The old hunter looked at Xuedian again: "If this one is sold, I would be willing to pay 250 gold coins. To be honest, it has the potential to become a wolf king."
He is worthy of being a mid-level hunter! His eyes are fierce!
Horn decided to choose it as the magic pet when he discovered that the elemental energy concentration in the snow dot was nearly half higher than that of other pups.
"Sorry, I need it, too," Horn continued: "I am a mage apprentice and am about to advance to a formal mage."
"Well, as a magician's magic pet, it's not considered insulting it."
The old hunter stopped forcing and got up and entered the inner room. When he came back, he had two more items on his hand, one of which was a bag of coins and the other was a magic wand.
"Give you two choices, the first is to take away 340 gold coins, and the second is this magic wand."
A magic wand is a prop for mages to cast spells, and casting with a magic wand is much safer than casting with a bare hands.
Take the acid splash as an example. This magic can summon a ball of strong acid to attack the enemy. If you cast the spell with bare hands, the acid will appear in the mage's hands.
If the casting fails or is interrupted by the enemy, and the acid falls on the mage's own hands before it is fired, the hands will basically be useless.
If you use the magic wand to cast spells, the acid liquid appears at the top of the wand, which can greatly avoid accidentally hurting yourself.
In addition, the wand is also a magic amplifier, and it often comes with one or even multiple magics.
Like the extraordinary beast cub, the most common wand is worth one hundred gold coins.
The old hunter said that this wand is worth 340 gold coins, so the wand is likely to have two magics.
"Can I see it?"
"Of course, it's what I got when I took risks before, and it's innocent."
Horn took the wand, which was a silver wand that was long and thick with one finger. The wand was carved with a mysterious pattern, and a transparent quadrangular crystal was inlaid at the top, and there was an almost invisible lightning symbol in the center of the crystal.
He stumbled his mental power into the inside of the wand and found two enchantments: Lightning Chain and Lightning Shield.
The lightning chain can summon a lightning bolt to jump between enemies, and its power decreases with the increase in the number of jumps. The lightning shield can summon a spherical lightning bolt to surround the caster, making the enemy unable to get close.
Both of these magics are primary magic, and one is a group attack, and the other has protective ability, which is the best among primary staff. Horn is delighted.
"It's it, but you, the value of your wand is only higher than that of 340 gold coins. I'll make up for your price difference."
"Forget it, it's not much different," the old hunter waved his hand: "Besides, at my age, it's useless to have that much money. However, if you find the extraordinary beast cub in the future, you must get it to me first."
Alas ~.
The old hunter sighed and touched the little wolf cub on the table: "I like these little guys, and some people are more like beasts than them."
It seems that this is a hunter with a story.
Horn nodded: "Sure."
