Chapter 129 Companions in the Dream Plane
Finally seeing a living human being in the dream plane, Hao Ren was so surprised that he almost screamed out. The expression on his face was so obvious that the girl on the horse not far away raised her eyebrows unexpectedly: "Sure enough, you broke your brain?"
"Uh, no, no, no, I'm a little excited to finally see a living person in this wilderness." Hao Ren quickly waved his hands and returned to normal. Only then did he have the opportunity to take a good look at the first human being he saw in the dream plane. appearance.
The other person looks to be in his early twenties, maybe even younger. His upper body is wearing a light brown leather vest with a white shirt underneath. His lower body is easy to move and seems to be composed of a layer of outer skirt and a layer of underpants. She wore a strange costume, with a long sword hanging on her waist. Her face was full of vigor, her eyes were bright, and she looked full of energy. Her skin color had a healthy wheat color, and her neat shawl hair on the back of her head looked quite good. Spirit. The animal riding under the girl's body also made Hao Ren a little curious: although it was said to be riding a horse, this creature was much thicker than the horses on the earth, and there were two bones sticking out near the shoulder blades of the forelimbs. It has a plate-like horny substance, a fluffy and thick tail, and no mane on the back of the neck. It can be said that except for the basic shape that reminds people of horses, it is a completely different creature at all - probably this is the camel beast unique to the Dream Plane.
"What are you looking at?" The girl on the horse frowned and glanced at Hao Ren, "Sure enough, you broke your brain when you fell?"
Only then did Hao Ren realize that it was quite rude to just stare at a girl he had met for the first time. He quickly smiled and waved his hand: "No, I got lost here on the grassland. I was surprised to see people."
"Oh," the young girl nodded, looking at Hao Ren's body curiously, "Wearing strange clothes, and he didn't bring any luggage, and he got lost on the prairie... At first glance, he didn't have any money, and he didn't have any luck in robbery. It’s really disappointing. Then I’m leaving.”
Hao Ren didn't know what to say when he heard the other party carelessly saying "robbery". Seeing that she was about to leave, he quickly stepped forward to stop her: "Hey, wait! Can you take me for a ride..."
"You're so thick-skinned." The voice of the data terminal rang in his mind, and Hao Ren automatically ignored this guy.
"Take you for a ride?" The young girl raised her eyebrows, "Why? I don't know you, and you look suspicious."
Hao Ren was a little dumbfounded. He thought to himself that everything he encountered did not develop according to the popular script. If there was a more normal script, he should seize the opportunity to embark on a new adventure with the new knight girl he met. Right - why is this person in front of me so indifferent?
"Am I lost?" Hao Ren spread his hands, "And do you think I can walk out of the prairie on my own in this state? There are more wolves than people here. Are you embarrassed to just refuse to save me?"
"Although there's nothing to be embarrassed about..." the young girl frowned and thought for a while, "But forget it, anyway, it's quite close to Rumbell Town. I can take you for a ride, but I need to know who you are, where you come from, and what you do. Yes, the most important thing is whether you have money - after all, I am a mercenary, and I will not do business that does not require money."
Hao Ren was stunned by this series of questions, and kept complaining in his mind about why he couldn't meet the kind of idiotic girl in other stories who was easy to coax. He really should have been with that funny girl when he came here last time. Wang should ask more about human society. Now that he doesn't even know the names of human places, where can he compile his identity? !
"Well, what do you think I do?" Hao Ren thought for a moment and spread his hands in a shameless manner, "You just saw me fall from the sky. I guess not many normal people can fall from the sky, right?"
Now he can only hope that the other party can really follow this guidance and come up with something. After all, "falling from the sky" seems to be the only breakthrough point at present.
"Oh, yes, you fell from the sky," the young girl nodded, "By the way, you didn't even bring any luggage, so you definitely didn't walk into the grassland by yourself with just this outfit - is that kind of thinking again? Abnormal magician? Is there something wrong with the space teleportation?"
"That's the problem caused by space teleportation." Hao Ren nodded vigorously, thinking that there are people in this world who can really match his situation. The first time he encountered big computing, he successfully fooled him, but he was not happy for a few seconds. After a while, the strange girl asked a question excitedly: "Then you can make a big fireball for me and take a look? I have also been studying magic recently!"
You, a female mercenary with a sword on her back, is studying some shitty magic!
Hao Ren never expected that situations where the protagonists in novels, scripts, and TV series could easily fool him would be so troublesome in reality. This living person with a normal IQ is indeed harder to fool than the two-dimensional character. The one in front of him doesn't look special at all. The smart one already made him sweat. In the end, he simply spread his hands in a bachelor's manner: "I can't rub it out. I was knocked unconscious when it fell. Believe it or not, I pulled it down. Anyway, at worst, I will walk out by myself..."
"Hey, the magician really has a bad temper," the young girl laughed, "Forget it, I'll give you a ride. Magicians are rich anyway - it's still half a day's journey from here to Lumber, and I'll charge you two hundred guineas. Not much, right? And how about I let you ride with me?"
Hao Ren was confused: How could he know what Gina was? He has never even seen what money in this world looks like! But the man in front of him was obviously a man who couldn't do anything without giving money, so he gritted his teeth, reached into his pocket, and explained while slowing down: "What, I came out suddenly, I didn't bring any money with me, and look at me like this The situation is... I won't have the energy to teleport back to get the money for a while, so I can only let you for a while..."
The strange girl didn't say a word, but just stared at the movements of Hao Ren's hands very seriously. She knew that although most of the magicians' brains were not normal, there was only one thing that was very popular, and that was that thieves were rich and easy to follow. You can just make a potion or some life-prolonging gadget and sell it to the nobles for a huge profit. Anyway, they are much richer than ordinary mercenaries. The guy who ran out in front of you seems to be the kind of person who is easy to deal with. She is a civilian mage. She likes to meet such people the most: they are rich and profitable. After all, they have lost their brains by studying all day long.
"Do you think you can use this to pay off the bill?" Hao Ren finally finished talking nonsense and couldn't do the slow motion anymore. After whetting the appetite of the girl opposite, he took out a shiny six-sided stick from his pocket. It comes from the shape of an object, "a gadget that I usually make when I have nothing to do."
"How dare you take out this machine!" The data terminal roared in Hao Ren's mind for a long time, "The moment you put your hand in, this machine should have been on guard!"
"What is this?" The strange girl looked curiously at the metal plate with blue light constantly wandering on the surface. "Alchemical items? Synthetic ores? Or a useless magic lamp? What is it used for?"
"Actually, it's a very magical thing," Hao Ren said as he tossed the data terminal up and down and gave the latter a vicious order in his mind, "Hurry up and show that you are valuable within three seconds." Come on, make this girl believe that you are worthy of taking a stranger for half a day in the prairie!"
"Just wait for me. I'll take your X-ray photos when I get back and send them to the same-sex dating website." The data terminal replied with the same viciousness, then reluctantly floated in the air and started to play the video of Nangong recorded before. A tune played in May.
"Wow, a music box?" The strange girl was surprised, "And it can fly...Music boxes are very common, but why do you want to get a music box that can fly?"
"Just think that I am full of artistic germs and have no place to vent." Hao Ren no longer wanted to explain any more.
"Okay, deal, this looks quite valuable. A music box alone is enough to pay for this trip, not to mention the ability to fly." The strange girl pointed to the position behind her, "You ride up, don't touch it. Where you shouldn't touch, I can stab you to death at such a close distance with my sword. This music box will be mine after the town of Rumbell."
Hao Ren sweated. He didn't know whether it was because the people in this place were tough or because he happened to meet someone tough. He got on the horse awkwardly and clumsily, trying not to act rudely, while communicating with his data terminal in his mind: "Can you please stop acquitting Dou E?"
"You sold this machine first! Even if this machine is downgraded one more level, if you throw it into the macro world market, you can exchange it for a top-of-the-line interstellar shuttle. Did you know? You just changed it once with a girl. Horse riding opportunities!”
"Stop talking nonsense, can't you find a chance to fly back by yourself then?"
"...Yes."
"By the way, I suddenly thought of a way to make money. We can..."
"Do you dare to tell me? I know more than 200 same-sex dating websites. Can you believe that 3,000 gays are called in every minute?"
Hao Ren: "..."
