Chapter 1066 We are...half-dragons
(Yesterday was January 1, 2013, New Year’s Day, double, the first day of the year, the first day after the end of the year. On this memorable day celebrated by everyone, the most memorable thing I did I just forgot to ask for a monthly pass...xd, so I asked for a monthly pass today! I have to make up for yesterday’s share!)
The noisy sound of the crowd came from not far ahead, and there was also a sharp and angry female voice in the middle. The slightly neighing voice was very distinctive, and there was no mistaking it: it was Sakina's voice.
There were already more people in the market, and it seemed that the peak of trading was reached. Therefore, although the two stalls were only more than a hundred meters apart, the middle was already blocked by the crowd. We didn't notice the movement on the other side. When we squeezed past, Only then did he see that more than a dozen people had gathered in front of Sakina's stall, and most of them seemed to be attracted by the excitement. Opposing Sakina were two men in blue short robes.
"That's the attire of an apprentice," Lilina touched my arm lightly, "but I can't tell whether it's an alchemy apprentice or a scholar's assistant. Both types of people are used to wearing blue short robes."
"Sakina, what's going on?" Sona quickly walked through the crowd and came to Sakina's side, asking in a low voice.
Sakina looked at the two men in front of her angrily. Only then did she notice that we had returned, so she curled her lips and said, "It seems that there was something wrong with the rhombus we sold them last month. What happened?" If you screw up, you want me to pay for it.”
Sona frowned, it seemed like this was quite a troublesome situation for them. The taller of the two young men seemed to know that Sona was the more responsible one in the two-person expedition group, so he stopped entangled with Sakina and took out a small piece of something from his body and pressed it hard on the wooden table. As soon as it was released, it made a "pop" sound: "See for yourself! This is your trapezoidal stone!"
I poked my head and took a look and found that the so-called orthoclase is somewhat similar to shale on the earth, but it is obviously stronger, pale in color, and divided into several layers. And it has neat edges. I don’t know whether it is cut or naturally formed into this shape. This is a piece of ore the size of a fist. After hitting the wooden table, a layer of white stone powder immediately fell. The young man looked at Sona aggressively: "It is not pure enough at all! This thing destroyed both of our potions!"
A burst of discussion broke out in the crowd. Sona put the stone in her palm with an ugly face and squeezed it hard. The stone suddenly cracked into several pieces, revealing the black and gray components from inside. Seeing this, her face also darkened.
I originally thought that I had encountered the popular story of a playboy from another world who unreasonably entangles and bullies a decent woman. I am ready to jump out and eliminate violence. As a result... I had known that the plot would not follow the mainstream route. Although these two young people had bad attitudes, they seemed to have suffered a great loss from the fakes. They were the real victims... So I couldn't help but intervene for the time being. You can look at the situation first and understand what's going on before talking. Based on what I have learned in the past two days, I feel that Sakina and Sona should not be such cunning people. So this was probably an unexpected situation where no one made a mistake, but the end result was terrible.
"I remember reminding you at that time." Sona thought for a while and finally spoke. It seems that he is trying to recover his disadvantage, "When making Gru-type acid-resistant agent, it is best not to use orthoclase as the medium. The impurity content of orthoclase is the most unstable among several similar materials. We are just exploring. We are not alchemists or earth spirit masters. We can find this kind of stone, but we cannot guarantee that the impurity content of this ore will meet your requirements. This was all agreed upon at the time, right?"
The shorter of the two young men spoke, and pointed at Sakina: "Then don't forget that she was the one who swore that her ore would be pure enough to be used as an acid-resistant agent. You guys What you promised yourself, why don’t you talk about this? Oh, and also, it’s quite surprising. You also know something about pharmacy, so you should know how much the loss will be if the pharmacy is destroyed in the last step! So It’s a big loss, do you think we’ll just let it go?”
Lilina suddenly lay on my lap. After hearing the whole story and understanding the whole thing, she could only sigh: "The quarrel between Taobao buyers and sellers. How come this happened after not touching the computer for half a month..." ...Boss, let’s kill people and silence them.”
Now I feel more and more that taping up Lilina's mouth before going out should be included in the code of conduct for Imperial citizens!
Sona and Sajina looked at each other in embarrassment, and finally sighed helplessly: "Then how much do you want to pay?"
The tall young man's tone was very matter-of-fact: "The total loss of all medicines is six thousand five hundred suo, plus a new batch of rhombi. In addition, during the two months we stay in Sentu, you are not allowed to appear in the market again. , seeing you upset."
With a "pop", Sakina crushed a stone she was playing with in her hand: "Do you think this is possible?! Six thousand five hundred?! Why don't you go and grab it! And we are not allowed to show up? Do you think you can count on it?" Who are you?" "Just because you are selling fakes, you should get out of here!" The tall young man looked at Sakina angrily, "Understand, even if you make trouble in front of the lord, you will probably be kicked out too!"
Sakina's face turned red, but she couldn't say anything. At this time, I felt that it was almost time to stand up, so I took a step forward and coughed twice: "Ahem, what, I heard the situation too, I Can you chime in?"
The two young men just saw a group of people around them, but there were already a lot of onlookers around them. He probably thought that we were also watching the party, so he didn't pay attention. Of course, it was impossible to think that we were with Sona. We were together. When he saw me speaking, the tall man was stunned for a moment: "Um, you are..."
"We are friends of these two half-dragons," I laughed dryly, but when the other party heard the word "half-dragon", there was obvious disdain on his face, and he snorted from his nose, which made me wrinkle. He raised his eyebrows and said, "The loss of the medicine is indeed quite depressing, but it can't be said that it's all the fault of these two girls, right? And just in terms of compensation, forget it. You want to drive people away, isn't this a bit excessive? ?”
The two young people looked here in disbelief. Obviously they didn't expect that two half-dragons would have such a large group of friends who seemed to be completely in two worlds. Just by looking at their clothes, you can tell that we have a special composition here. Not to mention anything else, Lilina, Vanilla and the others were still wearing the Crow God Sect's festival clothes. Those clothes were not accessible to ordinary people. But soon, their attention was attracted by something else: led by Bingtis. The five members of the Protoss clan took out maces more than one meter long and looked at the two of them with smiles on their faces, especially Bingtis, who had a very friendly smile: "Tell me, group fight or one-on-one? Group fight is just us. In a group fight, you will be beaten alone, but in a single fight, you will pick on a group of us..." After the words fell, the five-person group of protoss officers nodded in unison. Speaking of which, Lin, who is usually well-behaved and sensible, actually joined in the fun. The pollution power of Bingtis, the eldest sister, is truly unfathomable.
At this time, anyone with a higher IQ than Feng Mian should see that the fundamental purpose of our group is not to break up the fight (of course, I really wanted to break up the fight at first, but it was messed up by Bingtis, a gangster who is unstoppable. ). Of course the two young men quickly shrank their necks. Lin Xue yawned and muttered: "It's really not interesting at all. Why do we have to encounter such an old-fashioned thing? Now, let me tell you two, if it's fair to say, you are right to claim now, but you just want to It's a bit unreasonable to drive people away because of this. Let me give you a suggestion. How about you each take a step back, take the money and leave?"
I looked at the eldest lady a little surprised. In fact, at first I thought she was going to beat him up with a single order: She couldn't do such a brutal thing, and this guy also had a serious tendency to violence.
"Watch what I do." The eldest lady rolled her eyes at me. "We have to be reasonable. People do suffer losses. With your personality, you will definitely not bully others. I have figured out what you are doing."
"Tch, why don't we fight?" Bingtis put away the murder weapon regretfully, then patted me on the shoulder: "Master, take the money."
Me: "..." Why do I suddenly feel that something is not right?
Bingtis may have also noticed that what he said was not right, and immediately twitched the corner of his mouth and added: "I said, it's time to stand up for your friends at this time, you won't really let Sajina..."
"We pay," Sona suddenly said, and then took out a stack of banknotes the size of playing cards from her bag, "This is what we should bear. Six thousand suo, this is all we have on hand, and the remaining leaders ...We will make up for it after we return from the ruins next time. You can trust the half-dragon’s promise and we will do what we say.”
The tall young man shrugged, reached for the compensation, and glanced at Sona with disdain: "Tch, he's a half-dragon who talks and keeps his mouth shut, isn't he a lizard-man?"
One sentence became the trigger, and the incident that was about to end broke out again in an instant. Sakina punched the iron pile next to her. With a loud noise, the thick iron pile was even knocked out of the corner: "You Say it again?!"
Sakina's huge strength (under normal people's standards) is still somewhat intimidating. The two young people couldn't help but look at each other, and then took half a step back. However, it was obvious that they did not take this threat too seriously. As more and more people gathered around them, they seemed to have found more confidence. They looked around and shrugged helplessly: "Is it interesting for you to self-hypnotize like this? Ask others yourself and see if there is anyone other than yourself. Several people admit the term 'half-dragon'."
Although the people watching around had nothing to do with themselves, many people murmured in low voices at this time. In this world, the word "half-dragon" has long been unrecognized. Apart from the half-dragons themselves, there are only "lizards". "Human" is the commonly accepted name for them. No matter how much Sakina and Sona resist, they have to face the painful fact that they are an inferior race in this world.
I began to think about how to solve this problem. Of course, violence is always the fastest solution. Lilina's plan was very straightforward: let's kill people and silence them. But to be fair, the worst thing at this time was Lilina's bad idea.
Either let Sandora enter mind control, or use her sister's curse to clear the place, or let Qianqian cause a naked run of all people... Anyway, any one of us here can make the world quiet in thirty seconds, so now I The sum total was not something that could get Sakina and the two out of trouble on the spot. Rather, it was a more satisfactory solution that preserved the dignity of the two half-dragon girls.
Half-dragons are obsessed with saving face - of course, as a friend, I decided to evaluate this as self-esteem that cannot be trampled on.
"Look, we don't mean to be sarcastic, it's just common sense." Seeing the reaction of the crowd around him, the tall young man just shrugged and said in a descriptive tone. If according to the standards of this world, he was really telling the truth from beginning to end. But this truth was already an insult that went straight to the souls of the two half-dragon girls. Sakina clenched her fists hard, her eyes almost bursting with bloodshot eyes, and roared in a unique neighing voice: "No matter how many times I have to say it. , I am...half-dragon!"
"Yeah, your own superstition. That era has long passed," the short man seemed to think that Sakina just kept repeating these three words. He looked impatient. Pulling his companions to leave, "Forget it, half-dragons are half-dragons, remember to prepare the remaining debt, if you still want to retain some reputation, lizard."
I immediately slapped my forehead and knew it was going to be bad: You said that this matter was finally over, why do you have to tease me again? Is fighting for the right to say the last sentence really such a great sense of accomplishment?
really. Sajina, who has an impulsive personality, immediately jumped out, even though Sona tried to stop her. But it seemed that Sakina was much stronger than Sona, and in the end, the former blocked the way of the two men. The scene immediately became tit for tat. And he looked far more nervous than before. At this moment, there was a commotion outside the crowd, and someone shouted: "The city guards are coming!" Then the crowd automatically moved out of a passage, and a dozen tall and well-equipped men wearing heavy armor The soldiers came in, led by an officer on a horse. The officer looked around and his eyes fell on the two half-dragon girls: "Lizard people, are you making trouble here?"
"We are half-dragons!" Sakina looked at the officer stubbornly and shouted loudly.
If it were normal, Sakina would probably tolerate it even if she was called a lizard. After all, this is the situation of half-dragons in the world now. Even if she has a stubborn personality, she cannot change this fact. However, now, she seems to Already giving up.
I sighed. At this time, Sakina and I obviously couldn't solve the problem by ourselves, so I couldn't continue to watch.
I touched Sandora's arm: "Forget it, let's prepare to clear the place..."
"Boss, wait a minute!" Lilina immediately grabbed the corner of my clothes and whispered. I turned my head in surprise and found that Lin was leaving the market without anyone noticing. Lilina explained in a low voice: "She suddenly wanted to do something I hope we can cooperate - don't do anything, just watch quietly."
I was stunned for a moment, wondering what Lin had planned: it was rare for the ten thousand-year-old boss to put forward ideas so decisively.
"You two, pack your things and come with me to the guard," the captain of the city guard on the horse pointed at Sakina with the tip of his spear, and said without doubt, and then looked at the two young men, "By the way, You also have to go there, no matter what, you have to follow the procedures."
As soon as the guard captain finished speaking, he let out a small breath of surprise, because he found that his spear was held by someone: Sakina.
"Master Guan, just tell us how much you want this time. There's no need to go to such trouble," Sakina said quietly. "You have to beat us up every time before negotiating the price. Don't you think it's a waste of time? Let's go through it." I have to go out to work for a few days.”
The guard captain narrowed his eyes: "Guard, arrest her!"
Several soldiers quickly approached Sakina, who let go of the spear in her hand, her face slightly stiff: it seemed that she had done these things with determination, and when the soldiers approached her, she immediately subconsciously pulled out her A handy short knife.
"Look, a lizard is a lizard. She finally can't stand the laws of civilized society!" Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, and then the guard captain laughed: "Very good, there are enough witnesses, and The short knife in your hand, armed resistance to the law, the most dishonest lizard lady in Sentu, at this time tomorrow, you can leave this city forever, this is the law."
"Say it again... I am... a half-dragon!" As if the suppressed grievance and anger in her heart could not be controlled at last, Sakina yelled at the guard captain, and then she actually raised her dagger and rushed towards the person closest to her. A soldier looked like he was about to kill him. She was really strong and her whole body was heavily armored. The tall and strong male soldier was knocked to the ground by her attack. However, soon, three soldiers came from Someone rushed over from the side and blocked Sakina's movements with a heavy shield, followed by a sharp spear handed over from behind the shield: Facing the shield wall, Sakina might not care, but facing the spear, she The scales on her body couldn't be compared with the armor, so she immediately chose to retreat and put into a defensive posture.
Sona no longer restrained herself at this time. Even though it seemed she could never make a comeback, she still took out her short knife and faced the guard captain: "Half-dragons will resist too!"
"Attack at will, regardless of death or injury," the guard captain said solemnly, "They have already committed a crime, there is no need to show mercy."
The crowd had gathered more and more, but the circle gradually expanded to the surroundings. Obviously, even the onlookers knew that blood might really come out at this time. No one wanted to be accidentally injured, but no one turned around and walked away: being civilized The lizard man who had relapsed into madness after being suppressed by society's laws for too long was executed on the spot. This should be what most people at the scene wanted to see.
At this time, Sakina's exclamation suddenly came from the venue.
Faced with a numerical disadvantage, she finally couldn't dodge. A city guard scratched her arm with a spear, and bright red blood fell on the stone slabs of the road.
"Sakina!" Sona suddenly became nervous and jumped back to Sakina. However, just when the surrounding soldiers were about to take the opportunity to attack again, the vision caused everyone to exclaim.
The blood flowing from Sakina's body fell on the stone slab, and bursts of smoke quickly rose up, boiling like hot magma. Visible to the naked eye, the thick stone slab quickly turned into dust under the corrosion of the blood, and then, boiling The blood began to extend along a strange and straight line, and when it reached the center of the field, a red flash suddenly burst into the sky.
I was stunned and heard Lilina muttering next to me: "Hey, it's a little off, but I can still see it."
"What the hell is this?" The guard captain's horse seemed frightened and almost knocked off its owner. The officer on the horse managed to stabilize his body and immediately shouted in surprise.
And almost at the same time, a deep dragon roar came from the distant clouds.
I instantly understood what Lin wanted to do.
The dragon's roar lasted for a few seconds, and the guard captain's horse immediately fell down. Everyone, including Sakina and Sona, began to look at the sky in horror, and the low roar lived up to expectations again. It resounded through the sky, quickly approached, and then...
Then I listened and drifted away.
Lilina almost jumped up and shouted in the mental connection: "She flew over!"
So a few seconds later, we listened to the two dragon roars just like rewinding the tape: they didn’t fly this time. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
