Chapter 156 Chapter 156 Live Down

“Hi neighbor, what’s your name?”

p>

The Academy has come to school, and the students of the Jiangu tribe have returned one after another. Some trainees returned directly to their homes, including the neighbors to the left of Dagon. But Jiangu clansman on his right came over and started to say hello from a distance.

"Go and see your neighbors, sooner or later you'll get to know each other." Marne put his hand to his mouth and said, "If he wants anything from you, don't give it at all."

Dagon froze for a moment. Although he didn't understand why, he should be able to trust Uncle Man's suggestion.

"Hammerdom Deeprock, from Adamant Valley, has lived here for twenty-three years." The dwarf neighbor raised his arms, elbows forward, and touched Dagon. "You just arrived today?"

"Dagon Olison Neil, from Jiangu City, just arrived today."

"From the Neil family? Then you are still from our family. Where is the superior lord!" Hammerdom blew a strong breath, and the beard in front of his lips rose upwards. "Wow, has the city of Jiangu lifted its lockdown?"

"No. I came here in accordance with my oath, which is not a violation of the city's lockdown." Dagon said: "Your surname is Shenyan, then you are in harmony with Jing. What's up with Pike Deeprock, Lord of the Golden Valley?"

"That's my father, and I'm his fourth child. Hey, any dwarf here is the Lord's child, nothing to say Yes. The rest is not important, whether or not you can graduate is the key." Hammer Dom moved towards Dagon's pothole and raised his chin. "Are you still lacking anything here?"

"There is no shortage at present." Dagon smiled slightly, thinking that this Jiangu clansman was not bad, so he said, "I'm just here, so I'm not allowed to start the course, if If you need it, you will have to wait for a while.”

“Well, when I first came, I had the same idea as you, but I also suffered a little loss because of it.” Hammerdom said: “ Some things are necessary, such as a complete set of heating stoves. You need so many bookcases that are useless, and no one can check them on the ground. How about I exchange the stoves for bookcases with you?"

Dagon tugged at his beard and shook his head at Uncle Man's suggestion. "I have a stove and cooker, and I like bookcases. Let's just leave it alone."

"My stove is fine."

"Thank you. , you don't have to be so polite." Dagon shook his head and said, "When I'm done here, how about I invite you to dinner?"

"Then no need. If it's a dwarf girl, her cooking skills should Okay. You belong to the Neil family, and you usually cook by yourself?" Hammerdom said, "I also can't cook, so I thought of giving you the stove, didn't expect you not, it really makes me Sad."

Dagon just smiled and didn't answer at all. He could see that Hammerdom wanted to visit his house, but as long as he didn't invite him to visit his house first, Dagon refused with the excuse of "the room is not ready for guests". And Dagon just thought that Elite Academy has a cafeteria, so he doesn't have to cook by himself, and he has no reason to ask for his stove.

"Hammerdom, I want to ask, are you familiar with the man who used to live here?"

"Douglin Iron Mill? Is it alright? , had dinner together. Our courses are different, he mainly took spell, and I was not interested in spell, so I chose other courses. He went crazy later, and I sent him when he was sent away, that's all sighed." Hammerdom sighed, saying, "Everyone says this 14th hole is cursed, and Douglin is not the first to die here."

"There are other Jiangu clansman is crazy?"

"Those are all anecdotes from the Academy, and I also heard from others. I don't know if they are true or not, so I won't continue to pass them on to you. In short, I suggest that you give the room Do it to ward off evil spirits, such as asking the priest of the temple to perform incantation. If you don't know how to arrange it, I can help you handle it all."

"I It shouldn't be maddened by evil spirits, but wait When I don't feel right, I'll definitely ask for your help."

Hammerdum stretched out his hand and pinched his nose, just as he was about to find another topic, he looked up and saw Ma En staring at him, his eyes wide open. Bad. He laughed and said: "I forgot that you are not the only one from Jiangu City. Well, I still have homework, so I won't continue to chat with you. The elves have a lot of homework, so I guess I won't be able to sleep at night... "

After he finished speaking, he didn't say "goodbye" or even nodded. Hammerdom turned directly back to his own pothole, opened the door swiftly, entered the door, and slammed it shut. Never looked this way again.

"Alas..." Mann started with a long sigh, and what he said next would obviously not be good words. "Jiangu students are always going to get worse here. This may be a curse. Each one is less and less like Jiangu clansman, but more like a human or a half-elf."

Dagon I don't understand why I can't give him furniture, and this has nothing to do with going bad, looked towards Mann and asked.

"The furniture issued by the Academy's equipment department has a serial number. If it is broken, it can be repaired. Just explain why it is broken and exclude deliberate damage. But things should not be lost, especially not to damage the environment of the Academy." Mann said: "If he takes your iron bookshelf down and inserts it into the tree at the Academy, it will probably result in you being punished."

"Is it any good for him to be punished?"

p>

"It can make him talk more in his circle of friends. But I also heard one thing, it seems that if Jiangu students are punished, there is a way to get bonuses, or even credits. My relationship with the students The circle is far away, and you don’t know the specific situation, so it’s best for you to pay more attention.” Mann said: “The same sentence, read the school rules clearly and remember them all, and then consider going out.”

"I must keep this in mind." Dagon looked around and noticed that there were a few neighbors looking this way, they didn't have a friendly expression, they even stared at Mann blowing his beard. He told Mann about the situation.

"Hey, I don't care about them. I'm in the equipment department, and they don't dare to mess with me. But I won't stay here for long, and I'm almost done with my work, so I'll be leaving in a while. These little Jiangu clan Cubs can't move me, but elves are annoying, and I don't like messing with them."

"Then I'll just go back to the house and sit, and I won't come out unless I'm familiar with the school rules."

p>

"Toilet and trash are collected every morning, around the time the bell rings five. Just leave it at the door, don't miss it, or you'll have to keep it for another day." Mane finally said to Dagon.

The craftsmen in the equipment department assembled Dagon's furniture, refitted his windows and doors, and gave him a new key.

Sending off the guys at the Academy gear, Dagon closed the door and hung the latch from the inside. He pinched his waist and looked at the No. 14 pothole that belonged to him, and his heart was a little complicated. "Even if there is a place to live, but I don't know if it can be a home. No, it can never be compared to a home in Jiangu City, or the rocking carriage of a golden dog caravan. It's a place to learn, what else? I don't expect it."

Despite what he said, Jiangu clansman's expectations for a solid, stable and warm home are always there, and there is also a set of "ceremony". To say it's ceremony is actually a bit too serious, it's better to say it's a custom. When you come to a new residence, if you can cook a meal with your own hands, you will be able to live comfortably and comfortably here.

There are chimneys in the potholes, and the people at the equipment place installed a stove, but there is no charcoal left. There are big trees everywhere on the elves, but they rarely use charcoal, which is related to their customs. If you want to start a fire, you can directly burn branches or wood, and use discarded branches on the ground as much as possible. Processing wood into charcoal may be somewhat disrespectful to plants in elf culture.

Dagon still has some leftover peat in his backpack, but it's not much more than enough to make two or three meals. He took out a portion, and dug out the "Steelcast Heirloom Pot" as a cooking tool. Knives and shovels are almost enough to use daggers, and the lid of the pot can be used as both a chopping board and a plate in turn. The ingredients included onions, dried meat, smoked sausage, two potatoes, and he also had a handful of human-made vermicelli, and a box of seasonings including salt, pepper, paprika, and a whole piece of butter, which was enough.

The peat starts to burn, heat is transferred up from the square iron stove, and the heirloom pot slowly heats up. Dagon receives water from the bathroom. There is a water tank outside each pothole. It is said that every day all someone will add a certain amount of water to it, which is barely enough. The cleaning fire evaporated the remaining water in the tank, burnt away the stains, and now there is new water just added to the equipment.

The water used for cleaning teeth, washing face, and burning drinking all comes out of this quantitative water tank. It is best to empty it every morning to avoid accumulation. If you feel that the water is not enough, you can choose it yourself. Anyway, there are many small streams in the woods, which are either mountains or springs. Thinking about it this way, it seems a lot like living in Jiangu City.

Break the base with butter, sear the onions, and the aroma begins to come out. Cut the sausage, slice the jerky, and heat it in the onion and butter to force out the saltiness. Add a little water, put the vermicelli on the top after boiling, reduce the fire, cover the lid and simmer slowly. Dagon also puts quartered potatoes on the iron stove while it bakes.

At this time, Dagon begins to take off his armor, hang it on the stand and arrange it neatly. He changed into light clothes and kept the five-headed dragon cloak within easy reach. If there is an emergency, he doesn't have time to wear the armor, so he directly puts on the five-headed dragon cloak, and the scales of the Chimera inside can also play a protective role.

The ancient pot was still rumbling, Dagon lifted the lid and gave it a little stir, turned the potatoes over, and continued packing. He took out the daily necessities in the backpack one by one, put some in the box, and put some on the table and cabinet. The maintenance tools for armor and weapons were placed next to the bracket, and the writing utensils were left on the table. The books and notes he brought from Jiangu City became the earliest occupants of the bookcase, but they soon left the cabinet and came to the desk.

"Let's keep it here, stay with the school rules Ain Stone." Dagon looked at the backpack, which still contained canvas, ropes, hunting tools, etc., which did not need to be taken out.

Stretching hard, Dagon heard his bones rattling and his skin tightened, as if he had grown bigger. However, this is just taking off the armor and cloak that has been worn for a long time, the load is greatly reduced, and the temporary discomfort is caused. Along with the unaccustomed ease, the feeling of insecurity ensues, which is also an illusion. Even if he doesn't wear armor, Dagon is also half a weapon master, and the first hunting axe is not far away, where is the danger?

The best way to soothe the mood is to eat, the simmering in the pot is done, and Dagon's stomach starts to growl. He took the lid of the pot as a plate, poured out part of the contents of the pot, and put the rest on the stove to keep warm. He had just eaten a few bites when someone knocked on the door.

It was a halfling knocking on the door, a small man carrying two baskets in both hands, brow beaded with sweat. The basket was placed by him at the door, and the lid could not cover the aroma of the food. "Two servings of food, both for one day, will be delivered." The halfling pinched his waist with his hands and said gasping for breath, "After eating, put the basket at the door, and someone will pick it up tomorrow morning."

"Don't go yet." Dagon uncovered the basket, which contained identical two-color rice, boneless pork in sauce, boiled eggs, and apples. Dagon brought the ancient pot, poured all the contents of the basket into the pot, and returned the basket directly.

“Save you another trip.” Dagon said with a faint smile.

"cough cough! It's not me who will collect the baskets tomorrow morning. We halflings manage the kitchen and dining room, and those halflings who only work hard are responsible for changing the water and collecting garbage. They are strong and will pick up the baskets by the way. ." The halfling didn't thank him, and walked away with two empty baskets.

"There are so many things to do? It seems that I really can't go out." Dagon flipped the pot and was very satisfied with the degree of pressing his hands. "Hehe, even if I eat a lot, that's enough. Eat first, and then start studying!"

He thought so and did the same. But the stomach is easy to fill, the brain is difficult, and the most difficult is ambition. Dagon is not afraid of learning, because he has greater ambitions that have been hanging him and hooking him forward. In the past, this ambition was called to make parents eat well and dress well, but now it is to make Jiangu clansman eat well and dress well, at least not to get worse.

Along the way, he saw the progress of the elf in his eyes and kept it in his heart. As a weapon master, judging the battlefield situation is his essential homework, and he does not dare to underestimate the influence that the spirit card, the city defense heavy crossbow and the spirit talisman can have. Before entering Myniris, he simply felt that the stagnation of the Jiangu tribe was in stark contrast to the development of the elves, but after seeing the living forest, his thoughts changed again.

He felt that the elves were developing rapidly, and had planned to leave the Jiangu tribe behind, only humans, half-elves and halflings who were more flexible in mind, better able to serve and obey the elves would be brought up. Jiangu clansman is known for being tenacious, but also stubborn and old-fashioned. Dagon felt that regardless of whether the elves were willing or not, according to the current situation, Jiangu clansman would only be thrown away at a faster speed, or even eliminated.

The Jiangu family did not get along well at the Academy, which is also a kind of elimination. Regardless of whether the elves discriminate or not, the performance of the three Jiangu students in the task of dealing with the Chimera is unqualified, that is, the level of being eliminated, there is nothing to justify. No matter how it is implemented, the school rules set by the elves are here, and Dagon will never let himself be eliminated by the clear school rules.

Whether it is to avoid being dealt with by others, or to deal with others, the weapon master must let himself master the more the better.
