Chapter 343 Meeting Again

I really know that old Patch cares about reputation.

I remember that the first time I went to Old Patch to repair my knife, he got angry at me because my knife belonged to the category of iron pieces. Although in the end, the matter was reconciled, but from then on, I knew , For Lao Pachi, money is far less valuable than reputation.

Moreover, I also judged from the expression on Old Patch's face when he just spoke that his statement that he had nothing to do with the goblin royal family must be false.

But I can also understand that anyone who has enmity with the royal family will not tell it openly, unless that person is a fool or has no boundaries.

In short, the topic was passed over in an understatement and we started talking about serious matters with him.

I retracted my playful expression, looked serious, and said, "Old expert, I'm here this time, and I really have something to ask you."

Old Patch snorted and said, "I knew there must be something wrong with you, tell me, what is it?"

"I"

As soon as I finished speaking, I heard a knock on the door. I closed my mouth and looked sideways: Oh, what a coincidence!

The person who came was none other than Shan Yong.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw me. He walked a few steps and came to my side without saying a word.

I chuckled and said, "What a coincidence, I don't have to explain it now."

Then, I turned to Old Patch and said, "Old expert, this is what I want to ask you for."

"You want to entrust him to me?" Old Patch asked tentatively.

I shook my head: "He is a friend of mine. Well, yes, a friend. He and I are going to do a very interesting thing. However, before this thing is done, he may put some paper bags away." , a piece of paper or something, I give it to you and ask you to entrust it to me, well, it’s that simple, you see.”

Old Patch frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Well, will it involve my family?"

"Everything in the world is unpredictable. I can't guarantee that." I spread my hands and said, "However, I can guarantee the safety of you and your family."

"Well" Old Patch fell into deep thought again. After a few seconds, he slapped the counter and said, "Okay, I believe you. I helped you with this, but -"

Before he could speak, I smiled and said, "Once the remuneration and other matters are completed, we will settle them together."

Then, old Patch and I looked at each other and smiled, and then burst into laughter.

After leaving the shop, I asked Shan Yong: "How is your arm? Is it feeling better?"

Shan Yong's face didn't look good: "It's worse than when it wasn't cut off."

"Well, that's good," I said, "You can take care of yourself during this period. If anything happens, I will go to the casino to find you."

Shan Yong didn't react at all, turned around and walked in the other direction.

I looked at his leaving figure, shaking my head and smiling bitterly.

Unexpectedly, he just took a few steps, but stopped again, turned around, and asked me: "Can I ask you a question?"

"Please say."

"Aren't the goblins always suspicious? Why would the owner of the weapons shop trust you so much?"

"Because, unless I die, I will never break my promise."

Shan Yong nodded, turned and left.

The moment he turned around, I saw clearly the shape of his mouth, which was saying four words: I hope so.

Perhaps because of old Patch, his trust in me has increased inexplicably. Not only that, but his hostility has also decreased a lot. However, his resentment is not less at all. It seems that he still blames me for cutting off his arm before. things.

Here, I can only say that he is being petty.

At that time, he and I were the kind of sworn enemies who would never stop fighting. It would have been a mercy on my part if I didn't kill him on the spot.

Even now, he and I are not friends, just a normal cooperative relationship. I promised him to save the lives of my family, and he helped me collect information about the second young master.

Passing by the door of the Valiant Guild, I heard someone calling my name inside. I turned around and saw that it was Harold and Yura, all armed and ready to go out.

I looked them up and down and said, "They are so majestic early in the morning. Where are they going?"

Harold said: "Go to the 19th floor and kill the ghost-faced spiders. Are you interested in going together?"

"Is this your transformation mission?" I asked.

He shook his head: "No."

"So, your transformation mission is completed?"

"No," he said, "There's no rush to do the transformation task. Let's put it aside for now. The first priority now is to go to the 19th floor to fight the ghost-faced spider."

"Hey, what is it? Is it more important than the transformation mission?"

I couldn't help but ask curiously.

Harold smiled mysteriously: "We'll know when we get to the place. How about it? Should we go or not?"

Yura also helped: "Go, Xiaoyi, we really need your combat power."

I thought for a while and said: "Well, since you didn't say it clearly, I'll keep you company for the time being. As I said first, it's just company. If I encounter something I don't want to face, I won't do it at all." Hesitant to retreat.”

"No problem," Harold said.

Although I walked with them all, I didn't feel any excitement or joy. To me, they were just a group of strangers. Being able to nod to each other was considered very enthusiastic.

Moreover, the disciplines of large guilds are very strict. Even members of the guild can only talk in low voices during the march, and no loud noises or noises can be made. This is why I have never been willing to join those large guilds. : It’s too boring.

The route the Grand Guild marched was completely different from the route I usually walked. It was winding and crooked. It took a while before we reached the portal at the end.

I asked Harold, "Have your marching routes always been so strange?"

Harold said: "This is not a strange thing, but for safety and to avoid unnecessary trouble."

I thought about these two points he mentioned, and until the end, I couldn't think of Zi Wu Yin Mao.

The first is 'safety'. On such a tortuous road, you may step on the traps of adventurers who specialize in making traps and hunting monsters for a living. Moreover, even if this is not the case, you will be attacked by some hidden people. A sneak attack by monsters in the dark.

Therefore, ‘safety’ is bullshit.

As for 'unnecessary trouble', in my opinion, most of them are attacks from corpse snatchers.

Most body thieves do not choose to take the open road. They are more persistent and work on some remote trails.

This is safe and difficult to be discovered by other adventurers. More importantly, the body of the adventurer after death is easier to dispose of. It can be thrown in a place where monsters gather and let the monsters eat it. The behavior of the monsters can be used to Exonerate yourself.
