Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Big Table
Cross Town.
This small town, with only two streets that cross east and west, hence its name, is a safe place to stay on the edge of the Silent Forest, to and from the outskirts of the Silent Forest, where most of the adventurers who hunt and make a fortune here replenish their supplies and buy and sell some common goods, and the place is crowded and noisy all year round.
The intersection of the center of Crosstown is definitely a prime location, there is a small tavern here, and a twisted plaque hangs on the door, but the words on it are very beautiful: Moonlight Tavern.
"Ah~~~~ It's still comfortable at home. ”
Pushing open the tavern door, Luna stretched widely, and the halo around her seemed to become cheerful, fluttering around her feminine figure.
Hank sat down directly at a wine table, and the old elder let out a long sigh, "It's been a few months this time, and I'm really tired of my old bones, fat man! When will you eat? Thin man, bring me a glass of wine first, and the money will be recorded in the account." ”
Everyone crowded into the tavern and found a place to sit, their contents thrown on the floor as if they had returned home.
It took me a while to finally figure out one thing!
Luna is the shopkeeper!
This small moonlight tavern is Luna's property, and what makes Tianxian's eyes widen is that the fierce thin man is actually a waiter at the counter of this tavern, greeting guests, wiping glasses, serving wine, keeping accounts, and wearing many hats.
The most surprising thing was the fat man, this round guy was actually the chef of the tavern, and at the same time a handyman, washing and washing, sewing and mending...... The fat man actually has a pair of dexterous hands.
As for Luna, she only seems to be in charge of counting the money...... When Tian Xian knew this, he instantly understood one thing, when he was in the forest, he felt that Luna had an attachment to treasures that no one else had, but it turned out that she was a serious businessman!
The tavern had been closed for a few months, and the house was full of dust, but no one cared about it, it was much cleaner than in the forest, but Luna was careful and prepared a clean table and chairs for Snow.
Luna didn't plan to open for business today, just closed the door, the fat man went to prepare food, but the thin man prepared wine, this trip to the Silent Forest, it took a few months before and after, and what everyone needed most now was to relax.
When night fell, a large table had been set up in the tavern, and slowly the food on the table was mouth-watering, and several large wine barrels on the side of the table had been opened, and everyone sat at the table and feasted, and they had not eaten a meal or drunk a meal for several months, and everyone was now eating and drinking.
Tianxian and Guli are no exception, don't look at the fat man's not very good-looking, but the cooking skills are first-class, the food on this table is fragrant, just smelling it makes people's fingers move.
The only exception to this is snow, which does not eat anything.
But instead of sitting there doing nothing, Snow quickly made an amazing move.
Although the trip was full of dangers, it was fruitful in the end, and everyone returned safely, Hank was especially excited, holding his large wine glass to find people to fight for wine one by one, Luna, Guli and Tianxian, the two women and a small child, did not let go, and finally ...... Hank hesitated, but brought his glass to Snow.
"Little girl, are you interested in having a drink with the old man!?" It is very immoral to trick the little girl into drinking, Hank is actually just joking in excitement, but everyone didn't expect that after Xue was puzzled for a while, he held the wine glass in both hands and saluted Hank, and then slowly ...... Slowly...... Drank the whole glass of wine.
Suddenly, everyone's jaws dropped to the table......
The adventurers' liquor is not something that anyone can drink, Gu Li's cheeks were already flushed after only drinking one glass, and even more began to shake after half a glass of Tianxian, Xue quietly put down the wine glass, but did not react at all......
"One more drink!" Hank's eyes widened!
After a while, Hank lay on the table and couldn't get up again, Snow gently put down the wine glass, her face still didn't react, and she seemed to be a little happy if she had to say yes.
The dinner table suddenly became lively, if there are ten adventurers, then nine of them are drunkards, and the remaining one must be the god of wine, I have to say, wine is a wonderful thing, unconsciously close the relationship between people, along the way the snow and everyone is very estranged, but at this dinner table, snow immediately became everyone's most welcome person, everyone ran over and Xue had a drink, even two or three glasses......
Xue is very strange, why humans like to drink this kind of thing so much, although my father used to drink a lot, and sometimes he drank a little, but this is the first time I have seen so many people drinking together, it seems...... It's funny.
The whole tavern seems to be drunk.
Everyone drank the spirits, talked, laughed, and the months of experience seemed to never be finished, and in the end most of the men slept at the wine table, or on the floor under the wine table, but Luna and Guli were quite awake, and went to sleep in the upstairs room, as for the day...... He was carried upstairs by the only sober snow.
Early morning.
Tian Xian felt a headache, he had never drunk any alcohol in his life, this time he was really miserable by those bad-hearted men, and when he turned his head, Tian Xian found that his face was itchy again.
Reaching out and grabbing his cheek, he woke up violently, and actually grabbed a strand of hair in his hand.
The wooden bed and dry straw mat are scented with nature, and the bright sunlight outside the window quietly penetrates into the house, shining on the golden and silver hair that sets off the golden light.
Tianxian lay on the bed on all fours, the snow shrunk into a ball, lying on Tianxian's chest and falling asleep quietly, the long hair sprinkled Tianxian's body, the girl seemed to sleep very peacefully, and no longer frowned as if she was entangled by nightmares like before, it was already bright outside, but she hadn't woken up yet.
I was idle, I didn't dare to move for a while, why did I sleep together in a daze?
But look at their clothes, although they are crumpled, they are still wearing them well, and they seem to be ...... It's just a sleep, which makes Tianxian scratch his head in annoyance, and those bad-hearted men have something to talk about laughing at themselves......
But...... Tianxian raised his head and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but smile helplessly, he didn't expect it to really become a kitten and a puppy...... I used to have a kitten, and I always liked to sleep on my chest, compared to ...... The snow seems to be a little heavier than that kitten, but it's also a little softer, huh...... It's even prettier.
Tian Xian touched his nose, but he still didn't let himself continue to think about it, so he resolutely closed his eyes and practiced the trick of rebellion.
The snow soon woke up, for a small emerald bird flew in from the window, chirping, and then flew out again.
Propping up her body, Xue looked around a little blankly, the girl who hadn't slept for a long time was still a little confused, and finally, she smiled softly at Tianxian, "Black...... Early. ”
"Ah...... Ah, early ...... "Tianxian is a little sweaty, how can he say it so naturally, as if it is a matter of course for you to sleep here, so you are surprised, even if you scream, this is at least normal."
Not surprised, let alone screaming, Xue got up quietly, walked to the window and looked at the sunshine outside, and was a little stupid, "Black...... The world is beautiful. ”
This window faces the endless silent forest, the sky is full of clouds, and the blue towering mountains of Moyun Mountain loom in the distance, and the field of vision is extremely extended and open, and Xue has never seen such a scene in this life.
Tian Xian had no choice but to sigh, jumped out of bed and said, "Let's go, there is still time to see the world in the future, yesterday Uncle Hank said that he was going to share the spoils!
"Hmm!" Xue was very happy, and the shiny treasures of the other day had not yet been selected.
For the snow, everything has changed dramatically, and the whole world is shining, presented in front of him with a scene that he has never seen before, just like the boy in front of him, shining, strange but as if he has become extremely familiar.
When Tianxian and Xue came from the upstairs to the tavern on the first floor, everyone had already gathered here, watching the two children come downstairs, the men all showed a hehehe, and Tianxian couldn't help but feel a chill.
The large table was now full of treasures dug out of the castle, and the doors and windows had long been closed to prevent outsiders from seeing the scene inside, and these treasures were shining brightly in the tavern, and the soft halo of light was itching in the hearts of the people, and no one looked closely at the rapid excavation, and they did not know what amazing treasures were hidden in these things.
Everyone worked together, just valuable gold and silver utensils, and the precious jewels were separated first, although these things were important in the eyes of adventurers, but they were not the most practical, but these things accounted for the vast majority of the share.
The rest are some treasures with special purposes, some precious ancient books, ancient but still powerful weapons, some items containing strange powers, these things are only a few dozen, sparsely placed on the table, the number is pitiful compared to those massive gold and jade utensils.
"Old rules, take what suits you!" Hank was the first to pick up a dagger and carefully examine its properties.
Gu Li said with great interest: "I want to take some valuable things as expenses on the road, I hope you will allow it." ”
Luna glanced at Guli, "Whatever, if you have money, there's a lot of it here!" After speaking, Luna looked at Tianxian who was a little dazed, "Little ghost, you can also choose what you can use, you will need these in the future." ”
"Can I use it?" Tianxian was full of question marks, everyone else had their own stigma, their own direction of refinement, and naturally knew what they needed, but I didn't!
Picking up those strange treasures one by one, poking and pinching, Tian Xian smiled bitterly in his heart, he didn't feel anything, and he didn't know what these were, what else to choose......
I took the ancient book and flipped it up boringly, although I couldn't understand the words on it, but I could still pass the time by turning it slowly......
"Little ghost, you have a good eye. Suddenly, Gu Li interjected and winked at Tian Xian.
