The area of the blacksmith shop is not large, only half the size of the shop. The sound of ping-pong is constantly coming from the inside. Fortunately, the road is spacious enough, and Liuyuan diagonally opposite will not be affected at all.
This is not a prosperous area. Because the existence of a hunting ground has further reduced the commercial atmosphere around it, it can be seen that this shop is just a small business.
Three or five big men were sweating profusely and pounding iron tools when they saw a neatly dressed guest suddenly coming in. One of the middle-aged men wiped the sweat from their cheeks, laughed with their waists and said, "Sir, are you going to use weapons?"
The young man in white waved his hand and said, "I'm here to find someone. I heard that there is an old man like you who is a universal master. I want to ask him for some things."
Hearing that he explained his purpose, the middle-aged man couldn't help laughing and said to the blacksmiths behind him: "Someone is actually here to find that madman Hacuri..."
Several blacksmiths also burst into laughter, as if they had heard a very funny joke. Seeing their expressions, David Mo couldn't help but frown, which was too rude.
When the middle-aged man saw that he was a little displeased, he immediately explained: "Sir, don't be angry. The young man is not ridiculing you. It's really not worth your trust in him. I advise you to go back."
David Mo's face improved a little, but he insisted: "No matter whether he is a lunatic or not, at least he must meet him first so that he will not leave any regrets. Please tell me where he is."
Seeing that there was no way to dissuade him, the middle-aged blacksmith had to answer: "He is crazy all day long, and he should have run out to play now. He should come to the shop at dinner. If you don't mind, then wait here."
David Mo nodded and said lightly: "I'd better go out and wait, don't delay your business."
He was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by the middle-aged blacksmith and said, "We have no business here, sir, just wait in the shop. I'll pour you a cup of tea, and you can find a bench to sit on it."
After saying that, he turned around and returned to the shop. The other blacksmiths did not make a fuss. After joking, they continued to work. David Mo glanced at the small shop and finally confirmed that the middle-aged man just now had no malice.
An ordinary iron cup had some tea leaves inside. The middle-aged man had a silly smile on his face and handed the cup to the young man in white. It can be seen that although he was a rough man, he also understood the worldly ways.
In the noisy blacksmith shop, David Mo was chatting with the middle-aged man in a mess, and he gradually learned something about Hacuri.
First of all, this old man is indeed not an ordinary person. He is a cultivator and his cultivation level is not low. At least at the silver level, because according to the middle-aged man, this person came to their shop as early as his grandfather.
"He is like you, and he is also a foreigner. However, after staying there for the years, the local language has been spoken smoother than me. About sixty years ago, my grandfather became his best friends and told our family to serve him for generations."
His face was red by the stove, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead. He couldn't help but sigh and said, "Originally, our holiday was very peaceful, and no one disturbed us, but since Hakuri said the way to treat the eldest princess, everything has changed..."
Next, he explained the matter about the Grand Princess. It was twenty years ago. At that time, the Grand Duke's sister, the Grand Princess, was seriously ill and the whole country was helpless. Grand Duke Lusen decided to announce to the world that as long as someone could cure the Grand Princess' illness, he could receive a reward of 200,000 gold coins!
The middle-aged man's father happened to be worried about the blacksmith shop, and they had no money to renew the rent. But at this moment, Hakuri disappeared. Three days later, he returned to the shop and directly took out 200,000 gold coins to the middle-aged man's father.
With this money, not only did they not only own their own store, but also paid off the old debts they owe for many years. However, the happy life has not yet begun, and then the troubled days follow one after another.
Because of this incident, Hakuri's reputation spread all of a sudden. Countless officials and nobles appeared in their small shop, all of whom came to find Hakuri to treat or solve problems. At first, Hakuri could still deal with it, but the rumors became more and more evil, and he almost praised him to the same status as the ancient prophet.
It was at this moment that Hakuri suddenly went crazy, and his whole body began to speak in a divine manner. Gradually, no one believed his words anymore, so the madman began to be gradually forgotten.
The middle-aged man looked regretful when he spoke, but occasionally a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes. However, he hid very well, and the young man in white did not notice this.
As time passed by minute by minute, the sky gradually faded, but Hakuri's figure still did not appear. David Mo had already stood up, looked at the shop for a while, and paced back and forth for a few more times, and finally began to seem a little impatient.
The middle-aged man wanted to speak but stopped talking a few times, and finally stopped what he was doing and advised him: "I don't know when that madman Hakuri will come back. Why don't you go back first, sir, come again, Ming said."
David Mo said firmly: "To be honest, I'm going to ask Senior Hakuri for advice this time, and the situation is urgent, so I don't want to delay any more for a day."
The middle-aged man couldn't help but sigh when he heard what he said. He didn't know what he was thinking, but in the end he picked up the hammer in his hand and continued to hit him.
After a long time, the sky completely darkened, and a chaotic footsteps came from afar. Mo David, who had been standing outside the shop and staring at the bright moon in the sky, immediately turned his head and looked over.
A slightly hunched figure gradually appeared in his sight, with a slightly old face, but his hair was not messy. This made David Mo a little disappointed. It seemed that this person should not be a "madman" Hacuri.
When the old man walked to the blacksmith shop, he suddenly stopped and shouted to it: "Puer! Have you cooked it? The old man is already hungry and is about to starve to death! He is about to starve to death!"
Then he seemed to suddenly find David Mo, and immediately shouted: "Who is this person in white? Should he have dinner with us too?!"
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Hacuri, this person is here to ask you about things. Can you stop yelling... The food is ready, just wait for you to eat!"
Hakuri looked up and down at the young man in white at the door, and suddenly shone brightly in his eyes, and said extremely vulgarly: "Someone is here to send money again?! It's okay to ask about things, but I have to give me ten gold coins first!"
David Mo observed him carefully for a while, and always felt something was wrong in his heart. He pondered for a moment before saying, "The gold coins are easy to say, I just hope that the senior can answer a few questions from me..."
The old man quickly patted his chest and promised, "As long as you give me gold coins, I can answer you any questions..." Then he pretended to be mysterious, "Little brother, you don't know. I am the one who has saved the eldest princess, and there is nothing in the world that I don't know."
He spoke like a charlatan, as if he was eager to cheat money. But a trace of enlightenment flashed through David Mo's heart, and he immediately replied: "Thank you, senior."
He reached into the gold coin bag with his right hand, counted out twenty gold coins and handed them over, and smiled faintly: "Please accept the money for you, if it is not enough, I will still be here."
Who knew that the vulgar old man changed his face immediately after taking the gold coins. He said with a little regret: "Young man, you misunderstood. I just said I would take your gold coins, but I never said that I would definitely answer your question."
Then he shook the gold coins in his hand with great smugness and said to the middle-aged man: "Puer! Look at what this is! Gold coins! I have told you hundreds of times. There will always be such fools in the world, but unfortunately you never believe it! Hahaha..."
Poole quickly put down the hammer in his hand and trotted to David Mo, saying embarrassedly: "Sir, don't be as knowledgeable as this madman. I will help you get the money back now..."
David Mo looked at all angry, and he still smiled lightly: "Brother Poole, you are polite. These small money will not hurt the harmony between us. As long as Senior Hakuri is happy, everything will be worth it."
Hacurry's face changed a little, but immediately covered it up. He ignored David Mo, but instead walked into the blacksmith shop with his head down, and said with a look of disappointment: "It's so boring, hurry up and have a meal!"
Poole looked at Mo David apologetically and whispered: "Sorry, sir, this old man is just a lunatic. You must not be as knowledgeable as him."
David Mo looked at him with interest and said slightly: "Since Brother Poole feels that he is not sincere, I will not force him, but I will come tomorrow. I hope you will be willing to answer my questions then..."
After saying that, he smiled faintly, turned over and ran away, leaving only Poole standing there with a look of surprise. After a while, Poole couldn't help rubbing his chin and murmured in a low voice: "I didn't expect that he would see through it. What was the flaw in it..."
When he turned back to the blacksmith shop again, the blacksmiths who had been silently sprinting immediately stopped and moved in a row, as if waiting for his orders. The crazy Hakuri also straightened his body and no longer looked vulgar.
Poole narrowed his eyes slightly and said lightly: "It seems that he has never deceived this little guy. Finally, an interesting young man has come to the Principality of Lusen..."
After he finished speaking, a cold wind blew across his back. The door panels that were originally hung alone on both sides automatically closed with a "bang" and all the stoves were extinguished in an instant!.)
