Chapter 208 The Banquet in Karanli (4)
How to accurately find a profiteer with obvious characteristics in a mixed market? The easiest way is to find someone who often hangs around the market, such as a pickpocket.
Don't do anything, his eyes flashed, he took half a step back, and fished it out with his backhand.
"Oh!"
There was a cry of surprise from behind.
He pursed his lips and pulled a dirty kid in front of him.
"You brat, are you surprised? Where did my money bag go?"
He smiled cruelly, like a bald delinquent who cornered a little lolita.
"My money bag is here!"
With a flick of his hand, the money bag instantly appeared in his hand. He shook it gently, and the sound of coins and magic cores "clattering" came from inside, which also made the dirty kid in front of him look eager.
"My lord, I was just passing by. I don't know what you are talking about."
The kid refused to admit it, since the soldier in front of him had no evidence.
"Stop talking nonsense, if you want money, I can give it to you, even more money than what you stole, but you have to find someone for me."
Without doing anything, he took out a gold coin and tossed it up and down.
The kid's eyes also moved up and down following the golden cutie.
He licked his lips and couldn't help but recall the taste of roast chicken when he ate it for the first time three years ago.
How many roast chickens can this gold coin buy?
Twenty, fifty? Even a hundred?
The little kid who wanders around every day doesn't know.
All he knew was that he might be able to eat delicious roast chicken again.
"Who are you looking for? I'm not bragging. I have an impression of almost everyone in this market who has some sense. You just need to give a few clues and I will be able to find him for you!"
"Oh?" He smiled slightly.
"So, do you know the profiteer who lost his finger?"
The little ghost thought for a moment, as if he was reminiscing, then his eyes suddenly lit up, he nodded and said:
"You should be looking for Uncle Tiger, right?
He came to Kalanli half a month ago.
Uncle Tiger is quite famous in this market because he sells very high-end perfumes and toiletries, but the prices are very expensive, and no one can ever take advantage of him.
In addition, he only has nine fingers, so many people jokingly call him the finger-severing profiteer."
He was nonchalant and didn't say anything. He didn't even show any expression of surprise. He just nodded indifferently and said:
"I don't know if it's him you're talking about. Take me there. If it's the person I'm looking for, this gold coin will be yours."
He casually threw the gold coin in front of the little ghost head. When the other party was about to reach out and grab it, he pinched the gold coin in his hand faster.
"lead the way!"
The little ghost head longed for roast chicken and gold coins in his heart, so he didn't dare to neglect, so he took Wu Shirenshi and several other player representatives into the noisy market.
Other players continued to stop at the market entrance, watching the surrounding crowd with vigilant faces.
Although the two knights noticed that the others left the team, they did not say anything.
As long as most of the people are here, that's fine.
Their mission is to prevent these mercenaries from suddenly causing trouble in the city.
…
The market in Kalanli is like a maze. Many places are empty and the players may think they are similar, but in fact they have reached completely different forks one after another.
We walked in a winding way for a long time.
Finally, he stopped in front of a small shop covered with human skins and skulls.
"My lords, this is the shop of Uncle Tiger, the finger-severing profiteer."
"Are you sure?"
He looks confused if he doesn't do human things.
The shops near this shop are all closed. There are at least a dozen human skins hanging on the railings at the door. There are also more than 20 human skulls piled up in a jingguan at the door. There is a putrid smell in the air.
.
This store sells perfume and bath products?
Are you sure it's not a black shop that sells goods and kills people?!
"This is it.
Sir, you don't have to worry.
These skulls and human skins are from villains trying to rob the store.
But as you can see, they will never have such an opportunity in the future."
The players looked at each other in confusion. Even if the little devil was sure, they did not dare to act rashly. The main reason was that the style of this store was really unacceptable.
"Who is making the noise outside?"
Just as the players hesitated to move forward, a man's impatient roar came from the store.
Then a big black hairy hand lifted the curtain, and a strong man with a beard came out of the shop.
"What do you want? Buy perfume, shower gel, or do you want to show off your skulls and human skin?"
The middle-aged man's voice was like sandpaper and as low as thunder, which made the players' ears feel uncomfortable.
He winked at me and called me A-Lin.
Call me Alin and I will understand immediately.
He stretched out his big iron-like hands and covered the little Guitou's ears and mouth. Regardless of his struggle, he turned his back on the little Guitou and walked away far away.
All irrelevant people have now left.
He looked at Tiger with a serious face and said:
"Winter Prayer."
The middle-aged strong man glanced at the inconsiderate person, then picked his nostrils and said casually:
"What about praying in the winter and not praying in the winter? I don't know what you are talking about. If you want to buy perfume, buy it. If you don't buy it, get out of here. Don't delay my sleep."
I was a little surprised when I heard this.
Is the code wrong?
But the task prompt column does say that the password is "Winter Prayer", so there's nothing wrong with it!
He's basically settled now.
This Tiger is the secret sentinel installed by the King of Winter in Kalanli Market.
Because the moment Tiger came out just now, he saw those exquisite crystal bottles on the shelves, which were all Winter City's specialty perfumes.
Thought for a moment.
He pursed his lips indifferently.
He raised his butt towards Tiger who was yawning, raised his hands forward and then lowered them, repeating this three times.
Tiger, who was looking impatient in front of him, also calmed down the expression on his face. He also stuck out his buttocks, raised and lowered his hands, and repeated this three times.
"Praise to His Majesty Winter, Gray Eagle's Ghost Bat No. 16 reports to you."
Tiger knelt on one knee, looking respectful.
If the secret codes match, then the young man in front of him will be his temporary boss. If the young man needs any help next time, he will do his best.
turn out to be.
This is how secret codes are really used!
I just tried it a little bit, but I didn't expect that I got it right.
Is it really okay for the Winter King to use such a shameful action as a secret code?
But in a certain way.
It's really unexpected.
"Praise Your Majesty."
Resisting the urge to complain, I followed suit with a compliment.
It’s just that Tiger in front of me is still sticking his butt out.
"The secret code docking still needs the final step."
Tiger's big black face looked a little embarrassed.
"We still have to touch our butts. This is Your Majesty's rule."
As Tiger spoke, he raised his butt higher.
Not doing human things: "..."
