Chapter 14 Weapons
After thinking for a while, Shanluo decided to go back to the novice village to do some low-level tasks before killing the gray wolf. His current strength is difficult to compete with the wolf pack, and he also has to wash away the blood on his body to avoid the wolf pack coming again.
He walked slowly towards the direction of the novice village. He was not in a hurry. He found that the number of players in the afternoon was much higher than that in the morning. The woods were full of players snatching monsters, and some players even fought for it.
Soon, he discovered a phenomenon that most players formed teams to kill novice monsters, and few people killed them alone, which made him shake his head. How could he fall into extreme emotions when forming teams to kill monsters? Without the enlightenment of killing monsters alone, it would be difficult to achieve text awakening.
About a few minutes later, he returned to the novice village. The open space in the middle of the village was crowded with players, and their faces were filled with excitement and curiosity. It was obvious that he had just entered the game.
"Huh? Is that NPC? Why are there blood on your body?"
"It looks so scary. Can't it be a player?"
"It shouldn't be that the player has died long ago after suffering such a serious injury. How could he still walk so easily?"
...
The blood-stained Shanluo quickly attracted the attention of those players. They began to talk to each other. Faced with the strange eyes of many players, Shanluo seemed very calm. He walked towards the direction where the village chief lived, because the area where the village chief lived was the most prosperous area in the novice village.
"That's not a npc, it's a player. This person is very cruel. You'd better not mess with him."
"Yes, this guy is crazy. I heard he likes to drink blood."
"Really, fake? He actually likes to drink blood. Is he a monster or a human?"
...
Some players who knew the rumors of a single fell swoop began to persuade the new players, which made his reputation improve again, of course it was just a notoriety. If he knew that he had become notorious, he would definitely vomit blood.
Under the fearful eyes of the players, he walked through the crowd and came to the northern area of the village. He wanted to find a hotel-like shop to take a shower first. The sticky blood on his body made him feel uncomfortable.
Soon, he walked into a store called Passer-in-Law. The store is three stories high and made of wood. The layout inside is very elegant and antique. He observed around and the store seemed very neglected. Except for the two NPCs, there was no player, and the tables and chairs were empty. I think players have gone to do tasks, so how could they waste time here to rest?
"Young man, do you want to stay and rest?" The old NPC came to Shanluo with a smile and asked. Hearing this, Shanluo couldn't help but look at him. The NPC looked about sixty years old, with a goatee on his chin, especially his small eyes revealed his shrewdness.
"I just want to take a shower. Boss, I can help you if I have anything to do. I'll help you. Please let me take a shower." Shan Luo said with a smile. He only had one gold coin on him, so he wanted to waive the cost of taking a shower through the task.
After hearing his request, the passerby's owner narrowed his eyes. After he looked at Shan Luo, especially after Shan Luo's injuries, his eyes lit up and seemed to have thought of something.
"Well, then help me go to the weapons shop in the west of the village to get my box back. After I come back, I will not only let you take a free shower but also give you two gold coins, how about it?" The owner of the passerby asked with a smile, for some reason, Shanluo felt a trace of unusual smell.
"Ding! One-star level mission: Get back the box. Do you accept it?"
"Okay, what does that box look like?" Shan Luo thought for a while and agreed. He could take a free bath with an errand mission and get two gold coins. He had no reason to refuse.
"After you arrive at the weapon shop, you tell the boss my name directly. My name is Wu Dingfu." The boss of the passerby explained. Upon hearing this, Dan Luo nodded and turned around and went out. He wanted to complete the task as soon as possible.
After walking out of the Passerby Pavilion, Shanluo walked directly towards the West District. The entire Novice Village was not very big. It took him only a few minutes to reach the West District.
There are not many players in the West District. The streets are all villagers in the game. They seem to be real. The chatting sounds of the elderly, the laughter of children, the laughter of men, and the laughter of women are clearly heard into his ears, making him feel dazed.
"This game is terrible, alas." Shan Luo shook his head and threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind, and then he began to find the location of the weapon shop.
He came to a middle-aged man drinking under a tree. The middle-aged man was wearing white clothes and looked out of place with the villagers in a common clothes. He looked quite handsome, and the stubble on his face added decadence and a temperament to see through the world.
"Old man, can you tell me where the weapon shop is?" Shan Luo asked politely. Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man looked up at him.
"That's the red flag over there." The middle-aged man said calmly. He seemed to have not seen the blood on Shan Luo's body. His plain tone gave people a feeling that he was not close to him.
"Oh, I'm disturbing." Shan Luo nodded to the middle-aged man and turned around and walked towards the Hongqi not far away. The middle-aged man just glanced at him and closed his glasses and continued to drink.
When he came to the front of the Hongqi, he found a door half-closed here, and burnt smoke came out from time to time.
"Knock! Knock!"
He knocked on the door alone. Although the door was not closed, he still knocked on the door first to avoid offending others.
After a while, the door was opened, and a young man with coal ash on his face walked out. He looked at Shanluo with some confusion. The young man was not tall, but his body looked very strong.
"I'm disturbing. I'm here to help the boss of the passerby get things." Shan Luo said. Upon hearing this, the young man glanced at him with some vigilance. After all, his current image is indeed uneasy.
"Come in." After thinking for a while, the young man said, his voice a little hoarse, obviously he hadn't spoken for a long time.
Under the leadership of the young man, Shanluo walked into the house. The light in the house was very dim, with only a stone staircase, with walls on both sides. They walked down the stone staircase, and soon, they came to the ground. Suddenly, the light became red and a heat came to Shanluo.
"Clang!Clang!Clang!"...
A sound of iron storming came into his ears. He looked at the source of the sound and saw a shirtless middle-aged man in front of a stone platform pounding a knife with a hammer covered in sweat. The fire shone on his face, looking very determined.
"You wait a moment, the master is now fully focused and can't disturb him." The young man saw Shan Luo being about to speak, so he stopped Shan Luo and said.
