Black-bellied NPC

"O living fire of tomorrow,

Burn the darkness of the world.

When light shines into darkness,

Light is also just an appendage of darkness.

Ah!

storm,

When will you come today.

boom,

This world is no longer the familiar one,

Why bother to stay,

That past time! "

……

The old man sang an ancient ballad, and his deep eyes seemed to see through Wang Meng's body, looking directly outside.

Far away, he grabbed Wang Meng's cloak, pulled it hard, and said in a low voice: "Big brother, this old man is so dirty, let's go out."

Wang Meng was taken aback for a moment, and realized that Yuan Yuan must be afraid of the old man's appearance.Thinking that he was just a child, Wang Meng touched Yuan Yuan's head and said with a smile: "Brother still has something to tell this grandpa, if you are afraid, just wait for me outside the door. But remember not to go far away."

"Well brother, I see."

His deep gaze covered his forehead with wrinkles like a knife cut. The gray cardigan was drooping on his body, and the buttons had disappeared.Dark chest, body exudes a foul smell.The old man hunched over, with a broken bow beside him.

A small insect flew around beside the old man, and Wang Meng felt sick to his stomach. "Fuck, fly."

An npc behind saw Wang Meng walk into the corner, and suddenly laughed loudly: "Young man, haha, what are you doing there? The old beggar is useless. If you want to hire a good mercenary, you need to find me. Look, my muscles How robust."

Wang Meng didn't turn his head back, is it useless?There was a sneer at the corner of his mouth, Wang Meng had a feeling that in the mercenary hall, the one who could really shock him was the sloppy old man in front of him.

Because when he looked over just now, Wang Meng clearly felt a strong murderous aura.That is the murderous aura that can only be honed through countless life and death experiences.

"This old man, his previous experience is definitely not simple!" Wang Meng touched his forehead: "If you can hire this old man and take risks in the small town of Tadar by yourself, even if the old man is old, he can at least help him in terms of experience."

Having made up his mind, Wang Meng has decided to hire this old archer. "Grandpa, I want to hire you to follow me on an adventure in the small town of Tadar. I wonder how much your hiring fee is?"

Except for some silver coins, Wang Meng only had 10 gold coins stolen from Xijiangyue. His property was not too much after reaching Tadar, a relatively developed place, so Wang Meng had to ask how many gold coins he needed, so as not to encounter waiting It will be an embarrassing situation where people are really hired but cannot pay gold coins.

The old man suddenly raised his head, his eyes fell on Wang Meng, staring carefully, as if he wanted to find something.Then, tremblingly stretched out a finger.

"Fuck, one hundred gold coins!" Wang Meng instantly had the urge to jump off the building.Sure enough, the price was raised on the ground, and it was a mistake.

"No, the old beggar is 1 gold coin. But, boy, are you really planning to hire such a waste who can't be beaten or run away? Haha!" The mercenaries around the table laughed together.

This group of mercenaries obviously saw that Wang Meng didn't hire their own people, and they wanted to pick a waste in their eyes, so they were very angry, and deliberately used words to provoke Wang Meng and others.

Wang Meng understood in his heart, but he just couldn't let the old man be looked down upon by these people, so he immediately took out two gold coins from the package.Shaking: "I'll give you two gold coins, follow me."

The old beggar just opened his eyes, lazily turned to the door again, and ignored Wang Meng.

The mercenary became even more arrogant, and laughed loudly: "Young man, you don't know. The old beggar has his own rules, and he will not be hired easily. If you want to hire him, unless you can make him laugh."

"Damn, what kind of rule is this!" Wang Meng couldn't help cursing, but when he saw the old man in front of him, he still gritted his teeth: "Well, I'll make him laugh."

To amuse a person, the most effective way is of course to make faces.Although he hasn't used this trick to tease girls since puberty, Wang Meng will never forget, well, it's just like teasing girls.Wang Meng closed his eyes in a hurry, and made several funny faces that he thought were disgusting and ridiculous.

Then he opened his eyes, and saw the old man at first glance, his calm face seemed to have never looked at Wang Meng at all.

"Hey, I, Wang Meng, rule all kinds of dissatisfaction. I can't make a funny face. I still have a joke."

Wang Meng understood that it would be an arduous battle, took a deep breath, and sat down cross-legged: "The difference between saying women are funny is: give her a candle, some feel that there is still a cake missing, while others just want to give her a candle." I feel like I'm missing a candle..."

I glanced at it, but there was no response. It seemed that the old man didn't understand the meaning of the joke.

"Young man, give up. The old trash hasn't smiled since he came to the mercenary group."

Half an hour later, Wang Meng was out of breath, but the old man just kept looking at him coldly.Stop joking, don't even talk too much.Finally, even the good-tempered Wang Meng couldn't help complaining: "Damn it, don't feel tired when I was a senior. This old man is really hard to serve."

Wang Meng said in a serious manner, and rolled his eyes casually, only to see the old man stand up slowly and pat the dust on his body: "My name is Marcelo, and I am willing to be your mercenary. But you have to remember one thing, I am just your mercenary." Mercenaries, not servants."

There was a trace of rebellious temperament in the corner of his eyes, even though he was old, that arrogance remained unchanged.

Wang Meng nodded heavily. This is a promise, a promise to the hero: "I swear, you have all the rights to freedom."

After receiving the gold coin, the old man forced a smile from the corner of his mouth, which was ugly. If Wang Meng hadn't been careful, he would never have realized that it was a smile.

"Old waste, aren't you afraid of death with your old bones? Haha..."

A smile came from behind, Marcelo picked up his broken bow, followed Wang Meng, and the two left the employment hall.There will be tasks in the employment hall at any time, so Wang Meng didn't go to the task bar this time.Because after accepting Marcelo, an old mercenary, Wang Meng still has other things to do.

Lin Er, the owner of the grocery store that the village head mentioned, is not in a hurry to find him yet.I can walk around the town first to see if I can receive some tasks.But before that, there is one thing that must be done earlier, making a set of leather armor equipment.

The reason why Wang Meng has this idea is because the equipment Marcelo is wearing is too tattered.As an employer of mercenaries, no matter what, you should make your mercenaries dress neatly, so as to save face!

After learning tailoring, Wang Meng was able to make a level 10 leather armor set—snake skin armor.The required material is a large amount of silver snake skin.Basically, to make a suit, this kind of low-level leather needs about 400 pieces.

This silver leather is a kind of 15-level silver snake that will burst out. Because there are too many goods, it is too late to go out for leather.Wang Meng still decided to collect some furs first, anyway, he also has gold coins now.

The town of Tadar is much larger than the Hermit Village, so there are many more corresponding supporting facilities.For example, there is a trading market not far from the employment hall, where players can consign things that they don’t need temporarily. The consignment time is usually 2 hours, and once the consignment time is reached, the highest price will get it.Of course, there are also sellers who set a fixed price, so the speed will be much faster.

Outside the trading market is the famous stall area, but now the people here are withered, and there will be no silver snake skins.So Wang Meng took Marcelo and Yuan Yuan directly into the trading market.

Open the search bar to grab the keyword silver snakeskin.Sure enough, it came out.

In the trading market, there are two players trading this silver snake skin, one sold 300 pieces, and the other bought it for 200 pieces.

The price of silver snake skin is generally 2 copper coins a piece.This one-price guy offered a rather ruthless bid, and directly offered 3 copper coins. Anyway, this was to be bought. Wang Meng didn't even frown, and spent 6 silver coins to get the 200 leathers.Next is the big 300.

The system prompts that some players have already bid for 7 silver coins. Without any hesitation, Wang Meng directly pressed a 10 silver coin.Now I still have a full 8 gold coins on me, so I don't need to worry about this little money.What's more, Wang Meng's favorite thing to do is to kill the opponent by a large margin, and then enjoy the heartbreaking sound of the opponent.If one silver coin is added one silver coin, that would be a painful thing.

There are still 3 minutes left in the bidding time for the silver snakeskin. After bidding, Wang Meng has been staring nervously at the screen in front of him. He doesn't want anything to go wrong at the last moment.

1 minute, nothing happened.Wang Meng just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but at this moment, the numbers jumped.

"20 silver coins." Someone took advantage of the bid, and even added 10 silver coins directly, obviously trying to suppress Wang Meng with a high price.

Wang Meng entered a 21 without blinking his brows, and took the initiative back into his hands at the last moment.

"Ding! Congratulations, you have used x21 silver coins and won x300 pieces of silver snake skin in the auction. The system will automatically deduct the handling fee, and the silver snake skin will be automatically transferred to your package after 10 minutes. Please pay attention to check it."

"Okay, take it down." Wang Meng's mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.

At this time, Yuanyuan took Wang Meng's hand, shook Wang Meng's arm, and acted coquettishly: "Big brother, who just grabbed something from big brother?"

Wang Meng shook his head: "I don't know either, but it shouldn't be in this competition hall. Tsk tsk, the handling fee for remote participation in competitive auctions is as high as 20%, this kid doesn't know..." The next moment, Wang Meng's face changed drastically, and he said immediately: "No, let's go quickly."

At the same time, at a high-level leveling point, a player with dyed golden hair stared at the screen in front of him with wide eyes: "Damn, did you find out who snatched the fur of the fourth child?"
