When Li Wei first came, some people were wary of Li Wei, a foreigner, but after a few days, everyone welcomed him.
The main reason is that Li Wei is very rich, very rich. He keeps a lot of gold and silver in his storage space at all times, and he doesn't bother to bargain after taking out the gold and silver, so he just throws them away.
This also made people in the whole town think that Li Wei was a noble young master from some royal family, and they were all very hospitable.
Just like today, Levi broke off a small piece of silver and threw it to the tavern owner. Then the tavern owner announced that the drinks were free today because Levi gave too much.
This is why the Sheriff likes to take Levi to drink.
The whole tavern also burst into cheers, with both gamblers and drinkers shouting happily.
Levi didn't care either. Things like gold and silver were basically useless to him. In addition, he had robbed a lot of bald eagles in the previous world. It would take up too much space to put these precious metals in the storage space.
In his opinion, being able to open up relationships in the new world through such a simple thing is a great deal.
The main products in the tavern were rum, dark beer and wine. Levi naturally chose wine, while the Sheriff picked up a bottle of dark beer and drank tons of it.
But at this time, an unexpected visitor opened the door of the tavern. He was a muscular man with a height of more than two meters, but he was wearing custom-made noble clothes. When he came here, he seemed to stand out among the red necks.
.
"Boss, please have a bottle of Irish whiskey." The muscular gentleman did not show his aristocratic arrogance, but said calmly.
"Sorry sir, we don't have whiskey here, let alone Irish whiskey, only these..." The bartender revealed the wine rack behind him. Even the wines were some of the cheapest wines.
"Then let's have a bottle of that." The gentleman pointed to a relatively good bottle of bad wine and said, "How much does it cost."
"You don't have to pay. The gentleman paid for it and the whole show is free today," the sommelier said.
"Oh." The gentleman's muscular man came to burn a circle and looked at Levi who was not far away.
The main reason is that Levi's cowboy leather armor and the matador felt hat of this era are too conspicuous and completely incompatible with the people around him. It can also be seen that his leather armor must be very valuable.
"Do you mind if I sit down here with you?" the gentleman came to Levi and asked.
"Excuse me." Levi pointed to the seat next to him.
The Sheriff looked at the gentleman and said displeasedly: "I guess he is another old man from the country who sells serfs."
"No, no, no, I am not a slave trader. I am a writer and folklorist. This time I came here out of curiosity to ask about something related to folklore." The gentleman took out a piece from his hand.
The exquisite metal box was handed to Li Wei.
There is an opening in the middle of the metal box and it is inlaid with transparent glass, but there is still a glass container inside the metal and inside. This is a double-layered isolation box.
In the middle of the glass container was a small piece of stone with a strange pattern. The pattern that looked like a DNA double helix made Levi feel very weird.
What's even more weird is that at this time, Levi's "Necronomicon" reacted.
However, the "Necronomicon" did not include this fragment, but only gave a slight reaction, as if telling Li Wei that the mother body of this stone was the product of an alien god.
"You drink slowly, I want to discuss business with this gentleman." Levi said to the Sheriff who was drinking.
"Can we talk further, gentleman?" Levi asked.
"Of course, that's why I'm here." The gentleman seemed to be happy and agreed.
The two left the tavern and came to a deserted place not far away.
The gentleman stretched out his hand and said: "Hello sir, my name is Lencoff Carter Joestar, and I am a folklorist. You can just call me Carter or Jojo."
"Layway (Li Wei), my name." Li Wei said his name calmly, and then prepared to open the iron box to take a closer look at the stone.
I don't know why, but looking at this old man's muscles and calling himself "Qiao Qiao", Levi always thinks of the group of tough men he met during his second mission.
And this muscular gentleman's main occupation is actually a folklorist.
"Don't move, Lord Levi, don't open this box."
"Um?"
"To be honest, this kind of stone will have a strong hallucinogenic effect. Even the current double-layer isolation will have a weak hallucinogenic effect. And people affected by this kind of stone will go crazy. I also investigated this
The origin of the stone is here, so I came here to investigate further."
"Mr. Carter, where did you get this stone?" Levi asked. He might as well call the person in front of him Carter. Calling him Qiaoqiao always felt unlucky.
"The West India Company, but they excavated it from around here and sold it as a new type of D product." The Carter gentleman said.
"That would be troublesome." Levi said.
He had a hunch that this thing was related to his mission this time.
The only things that can make the "Necronomicon" react are the creations of alien gods, and the stones covered with strange patterns are the creations of alien gods in this world.
"What's wrong? Mr. Levi, do you recognize this stone?" Carter asked. His nearly two-meter-long muscular body would produce an unparalleled sense of oppression even if it was a gentleman's courtesy.
"No, but I also came here for the source of this stone. Wait a minute, we will ask the priest when he comes back in the evening." Levi frowned, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
Levi took Carter to the church. Carter spent money to live near the church today. The two of them studied the stone together for a whole day, but found nothing.
Without opening the box, Levi could only analyze the information through the patterns on the stone, but he could not analyze anything. He only thought that the patterns resembled the DNA double helix structure, but the DNA double helix model would have to wait until a hundred years later.
will be parsed.
It was not until nightfall that the priest returned to the church. After studying for a whole day but finding nothing, Carter and Levi found the priest with the stone.
The priest was stunned for a moment when he saw the stone, and then he seemed not to notice the solemn expressions of Levi and Carter, and said: "I also have this kind of stone. I bought it at the port. This thing seems to be able to
I am closer to God."
Amid Levi and Carter's strange expressions, the priest returned to the bedroom and took out a small piece of stone the size of a fingernail with a rope strung on it, which seemed to be made into the shape of a necklace.
This stone was exposed to everyone without any barriers.
"Father, how long has it been since you bought this thing?" Levi asked hurriedly.
"It's been a few days," the priest responded. "Ever since I put this rune stone under the bed, I seem to be able to see the appearance of God every night when I sleep, so I also recommend believers to bring one with them."
