At the gate of Feiyu Port. The sun was shining brightly, making the soldiers guarding the gate look a little lazy. "Be alert." An old city guard noticed something unusual approaching the city gate, and reminded his companions to be alert to prevent any accidents. He looked closely and found that they were two teenagers supporting each other, and couldn't help showing a look of disgust: "It's okay." The young city guard also recognized them and stared at them with wide eyes: "Tsk tsk, they are not going to dig out the nest of wild beasts." The two teenagers approached slowly, and others could see their miserable appearance more clearly. One was limping and the other had a hideous head. It turned out that he had a big bag on his head. The two were wet all over, as messy as they could be. Seeing their miserable appearance, several city guards did not dare to stop them, so as not to cause trouble for themselves. The two teenagers were Rosade and Benson who came back from outside the city. The two moved forward with difficulty, and finally passed through the city gate and came to the place where there was a donkey cart behind the city wall.
Seeing the two, the man guarding the donkey cart did not disdain them at all, and asked: "Gentlemen, may I ask how I can help you?" Benson said dazedly: "Go home." Rosaid hurriedly stopped him: "Send us to the best clinic nearby, and hurry up, we won't miss your travel expenses." He broke one leg, and it hurt all the way, and I don't know how much cold sweat he had left. Sitting on the donkey cart, Rosaid gritted his teeth and breathed a sigh of relief. He swore to the merciful Virgin Mary that he would find a chance to avenge the current grudge and the previous grudge, and wait until he had a stronger strength. As for complaining to his parents, he really didn't have such an idea, he couldn't afford to lose that person, otherwise he couldn't live in the nearby area. ... Not to mention the embarrassment of the two. On the other side, after entering the city, Ivan came to an adventurer's tavern near the dock in the south of the city. 'Giant Shark Headbutt' Glancing at the strange name above, it was exactly the place his brother Biman mentioned, and he stepped into the noisy tavern. The smell of alcohol and sweat hit him in the face. Ivan frowned slightly, stood at the door and looked around, then walked directly to the counter. "Give me a glass of skull wine." Behind the counter stood an old and strong man, a well-known retired adventurer near the dock, named 'Old John'. Old John glanced at Ivan, took an oak cup with a wire, put it under the barrel on the shelf behind him, pulled out the cork of the barrel, and the light red wine poured out and fell into the oak cup. While handing over the wine, Old John reminded: "Boy, don't make a scene in front of me after drinking, otherwise I will test the hardness of your skull." Ivan paid a silver coin, took the oak cup and said nothing. This was just a loss for being young, and the other party probably thought it was his first time drinking.
He found an empty table with the wine glass and sat down against the wall, first looking at the 'skull wine' in his hand. There was only one large wine glass in the tavern, which was the oak cup in front of him, which was a bit higher than his palm. The wine inside was light red and turbid. It was actually a kind of beer. ‘Skull Wine’ was the name of the wine when the tavern opened many years ago. Only a few local snakes knew it. Today, it has been renamed ‘Headbutt Wine’. It is said that after drinking it, your head will feel like being hit by a mallet. But reporting the name ‘Skull Wine’ can save a lot of trouble. This is what Biman told him. ‘The alcohol content is not high, it should be around 15 degrees, and there is a very strong strange smell in it.’ Ivan took a sip and tasted that it should be a wine fermented from wheat, similar to beer, mixed with a very strong numb taste. It doesn’t suit his taste. He took a sip while looking at the various people in the tavern, there were adventurers dressed as mercenaries, there were eloquent bards, more sailors and dock workers, and a half-drunk nightingale leaning against the wall. This kind of place is the most mixed, there may be a few swindlers and thieves in it. After observing for a while as if nothing had happened, he was attracted by the words of the bard. "Remember the colorful black ship last time? Many young masters and young ladies who left on that ship died." "Bill, you are boastful. How can you find out about the affairs of the noble young masters?" "Hehe, I don't need to find out. A lady who likes to listen to my travel stories said it after drinking. It is said that five or six people died." Ivan's eyes flickered when he heard the conversation between the two. Donnie also said such words, but the number was different. The other person exposed the bard's words and cursed with a laugh: "What lady? It's a plump cook, hahaha." "That's also a plump cook in a noble family, hahaha." The bard also laughed and didn't mind his companion's jokes at all. Ivan grinned and almost believed what the bird man said. "Clang clang----" Soon, a low knocking sound came from the counter. Old John was knocking on a rusty anchor with his fist. Hearing the sound, many people got up and walked to the back of the tavern. Ivan no longer cared about the shallow layer of headbutt wine he had drunk, and walked slowly with the crowd. There was a passage behind the tavern, and through the passage came a place similar to a warehouse. This was actually a ship that had landed, and only the lower deck was used as a trading market. Square tables were nailed inside, with intervals in the middle, and the square tables could be used to place trading items. This was also Old John's territory, and he only charged the vendors a glass of headbutt wine for rent. Ivan was short of medicinal materials, and Biman was not at home, so he had to come here by himself. "How do you sell it?" "30 silver coins on the left, 50 silver coins on the right, both come with a bundle of arrows." He felt the crossbow was good before, and regretted not taking some spoils from the two men. He didn't expect to run into someone selling strong bows and crossbows. After a careful comparison, he simply paid 50 silver coins and got a delicate crossbow. As the name suggests, the crossbow is tied to the arm and can be hidden in a loose sleeve. The crossbow can load three short crossbow arrows at a time and fire by shaking the arm or stirring the blood.
He learned a trick from Rosade, the crossbow arrows must be poisoned. After a short stroll, Ivan found one of the people who had placed some medicinal herbs in front. He subconsciously glanced at the other's sloppy beard. The beard was only half, and it was indeed red. "Mr. Red Beard, Biman asked me to come." "Where's the money?" After handing over the money and the goods, Ivan got a cloth bag with boxes of different sizes in it. When handing him the bag, Red Beard asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Do you still have the secret medicine from last time?" Ivan looked at Red Beard with surprise: "What?" Beiman had reminded him of many things before, including that Red Beard was honest and a little cunning, so he would naturally not be deceived by such a trick. Red Beard lowered his voice and said: "I heard that Biman sold a secret breathing medicine. Let him talk to me. I can make him earn five more gold coins." Ivan thought about it for a while and replied: "No problem, I will tell him." Seeing that he really didn't know, Red Beard let go of the bag and let him check it. After the transaction was completed, he didn't stay in the cabin for long. Originally, he wanted to see if there were other breathing methods for sale. This market was too small to have such precious things. After leaving the Shark Head Hammer Tavern, Ivan did not take the small path, but walked back along the crowded street. A voice made him stop and look over. "Donnie, come here for me."
