Chapter 3857: A Good Game Is Guaranteed
*************************************************** ***************************************
Going around and around in confusion, the rent was collected in the blink of an eye.
The main reason is that the two sides don't talk much, and it's like a joint meeting between underground parties. Meeting, exchanging passwords, and transferring materials seem to have been practiced for thousands of times. The tacit understanding is weird. It usually takes less than a minute to complete the set. Can you say it's not fast?
The reward is that there are forty or fifty more boxes in the inventory. Is this why Linya asked me to tidy up the inventory before going out? Love it, love it.
Even so, it was almost dusk after returning to the alliance headquarters, and it still took quite a long time. After all, we covered almost a quarter of the camp. It was just that the handover was too fast, giving me the feeling that it would be over in the blink of an eye. The illusion.
Akara was exhausted, so I asked her to rest midway, but she refused. A rickshaw, a wheelchair, or even my back could do it. She dealt with it with a familiar smile, saying that in order to show sincerity, she had to walk over one by one, a little old woman. , very stubborn and stupid, I can't do anything about it.
When I returned to the headquarters, I borrowed Lena's wheelchair for her to use. It is passed down from master to disciple from generation to generation. I think this wheelchair is going to make a fortune.
At this time, everyone was gathered in a small open space in the headquarters, a small square.
Linya and Lena had already expected it, and squeezed the lunch time to complete the important work at hand, just to join in the fun.
The missing person Kane also suddenly appeared, also leaning on a cane and slightly hunched over. He looked different from Akara. He seemed to be able to straighten his body at any time, as if he had six-pack abs hidden under his gray robe. It's as if the humble crutch in your hand can instantly transform into a nunchaku - it's no wonder.
In addition, there are some unknown people... No, my memory is not that bad. I vaguely remember that these faces appeared when Akara and I went to collect rent.
What's going on? I was so happy without saying a word, but I still feel uneasy and want to come over to reconcile?
In fact, it’s understandable, brothers have to settle accounts.
I stood between Linya and Lena, whispering to the girls.
"You should take me back to my parents' house more often." I said roughly about the embarrassment caused by going to Edward's house to collect rent in the morning. These two heartless little women not only did not show sympathy, but laughed. .
"This can't be blamed on Brother Wu. After the residential area was rebuilt according to the planned plan, everyone moved to new homes. They are no longer the same place as before. I haven't had time to introduce Brother Wu to his home. It's not surprising that I don't know."
"After changing to a new home, people have not changed. They should remember it." I still thought about it and felt very resentful. Fortunately, I was just complaining in my heart at the time and did not say what was in my heart. Otherwise, I would not know what to do. What a misunderstanding and embarrassment.
Silence is golden, and so is integrity. Remove one common factor, and silence is integrity. Mr. Lu Xun will not deceive me.
"Brother, please don't make things difficult for Linya. Didn't you explain it before? It's inconvenient. Even Linya herself hasn't been back for more than a year."
Shocked, are you still the contemporary Dayu?
Looking at Linya who was silent, I didn't feel embarrassed to complain about her.
It seems like this is happening? I remember that she explained to me seriously and carefully why Linya’s family and I were so alienated, and even many of Linya’s closest relatives had never met.
To put it bluntly, it's still the intrigue of stupid humans. I don't take my not-so-weird identities and titles too seriously. I just regard them as a kind of shackles and burdens. In fact, I don't know how heavy they are. I don’t really want to know about it, but some people seem to take it very seriously.
It's so important that I can't be too close to Edward's family. It's even better to have two parallel lines.
Otherwise, my average IQ value fluctuates and I can probably think of two possibilities.
Daughters, adopted daughters, and beauties from all kinds of big families wear low-cut dresses and hang out in front of their homes all day long.
The Edward family was isolated and hostile from the entire family circle.
On a larger scale, the stability between the family circle and the civilian circle will also be affected.
The human heart has never been simple. People in other worlds may not be any simpler than people in the original world. As Mr. Lu Xun said, urban routines are deep. If I want to go back to the countryside, the roads in the countryside are also slippery, and the human heart is more complicated. That's probably it. mean.
I can fight the little monsters with peace of mind and never think about the problems in the rear area. It's not that there are no problems in the rear area, but Akara and Kane have already settled everything for me.
Mr. Lu Xun also said that there are never quiet years, it is just that someone is carrying the burden for you and moving forward, which probably means the same.
In short, I don’t need to pay attention to these nonsense conflicts within the alliance and within human beings. I can just concentrate on dealing with the hell clan. When the hell clan is driven away, the alliance medicine cannot be stopped. It’s time to fight within. Then I will consider my own. It’s not too late to stand.
So, I just continue to [pretend] that I don’t know anyone from Edward’s family. Yes, I did it on purpose, not by accident. There was nothing embarrassing about what happened in the morning. Everything was planned by me, even now Linya complained just in exchange for more gentle service at night. What a cold and terrible man, myself.
Similarly, Linya also has Linya's troubles. As a member of the Edward family, her current identity is also very sensitive. As Lena's right-hand man, Kane II, she has almost cut off contact with the family, just like when she resolutely gave up the big family. The competition between the elders, Raphael rushed to the third world where he never returned.
All efforts are made for order and stability.
Let’s get back to the topic, what is going on with this large group of people in front of us? It seems that the number of boxes is not quite right. There seemed to be about 100 elderly people’s tour groups at the time, right? Now only forty or fifty boxes have been collected.
"Not every family can come up with a unique share." Linya explained naturally: "If the foundation is not deep enough, the two families with a good relationship can come together to come up with one share, or even three or four families can come up with one share. , are all possible, and receiving this number is beyond my expectation. It seems that our alliance still has some wealth."
"I understand." I clapped my hands and said that it was so complicated. It was just a shared apartment.
So here comes the question, how ruthless is Akala’s rent collection? There are several big families and strong men in the field, but they can’t even pay the rent, so they have to share with others.
"Where are the people?" I pointed at the familiar strangers.
"The person responsible for checking."
"Check?"
"Yes, check it. You can't say that I paid the rent. Oh, I just paid it. How much I paid, how much contribution I made, whether it is this amount, you have to check and register it, so that it can be returned easily in the future, even if it is a building On the basis of trust, this account must be settled clearly.”
"Oh, that's it. Wait, can we return it?"
I have collected the rent for my own house, but I can’t use the money to spend the night and have fun. I have to pay back the money in full in the future? What's the point? A new way for capitalists to harvest leeks from common people?
"Brother doesn't know yet?" Lena looked at me in surprise. I felt wronged and depressed.
"You don't tell me anything I know."
"I thought that by today, the teacher would definitely explain it to you no matter what."
"Then your teacher will definitely think that now that we have reached this point, you will definitely explain it to me clearly."
"So you can't blame us?" Linya blinked, showing an innocent expression.
Hey, woman.
"Dear Wu." Akara came over in a wheelchair, with Kane pushing behind him. You are really the Tong Hu hidden in the elders, right?
"How about you open those boxes?" she asked.
"This... I have always been very unlucky." I am not bragging. If there was no guarantee, I would not be able to withdraw money for ten consecutive years in my life.
"It's okay, it's okay. The contents of the box are fixed and have nothing to do with luck."
Akala, just let it go, that’s it, then I’m relieved. Wait, why does this sound a little hurtful? I can tell the truth, but you can't admit it!
Dozens of boxes were placed randomly in the open space, like cheap cabbage. I walked among these large and small boxes. After turning my eyes around, I selected the target and strode over.
It's you, a boxy metal box. If I get two shoulder straps to carry it behind my back, I will become Tuogu's Aiolos.
All in all, let’s open our own box first and see what good treasures Linya’s family has hidden.
Apart from the sales meme, the seemingly ordinary box is not simple in the eyes of a druid like me who only knows a little magic. The seemingly decorative patterns on the outside should be magic runes. If I guessed That's right, what's engraved should be space magic.
It's not that my magic knowledge is so profound that I can see through it at a glance, but because - if it weren't for space magic, how many things could be packed in such a medium-sized box? Is this common sense?
The way to open the box is not difficult. It can be seen from some traces that it should be difficult originally. There may be many seals, many shackles, physical, magical, and even curses, but now they have been unlocked. Just wait. Then he opened the last layer by himself - the ordinary lid.
Hey!
As soon as the lid was lifted, the four walls of the box lost their restraints and fell down. The blazing brilliance was like a roaring beast, bursting out of the dark and lightless space. It couldn't wait and pounced wildly and violently in all directions, occupying every corner. An inch of space, greedily enjoying the long-lost freedom.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the moment I opened the box, I even heard the violent roar of a dragon. The hot light was like a real needle pricking my skin, making me subconsciously take a few steps back and close my eyes. Blinded.
It took a long time for everyone to gradually adapt to the scorching light pouring out of the box. They slowly opened their eyes. Their eyes were already full of shock. After gradually recognizing the colors and meanings of these lights, it was even more... Once again filled with shock.
The strong dark gold luster, like a fallen gold mountain, spread all over the place, as if stepping into the ocean of dark gold, one piece, two pieces, three pieces, at least hundreds of pieces of dark gold equipment, from the box Fly out and lie quietly on the ground, waiting for the right person.
The rich dark gold luster, in the eyes of us adventurers, does not need to be held in hand to observe carefully. It can be seen at a glance that it is at least an extended level dark gold equipment, or even an elite level dark gold equipment, or an ordinary level. The goods are not suitable to be packed inside.
If it were just the high-end dark gold equipment in one place, it wouldn't make everyone so moved and pale. What's really shocking is swimming in this dark gold ocean, which overwhelms everything and represents everything, the colorful The colorful, colorful light of hope.
It is like a brilliant diamond in a golden mountain. The dazzling golden light can only add to the dazzling color of its rainbow. It is located on the top of the mountain, overlooking the heroes, and has a unique existence.
Artifact!
