I Contracted Myself

The three knives Zhang Ping just looked at were each more expensive than the last.

Among them, the price of the Nine-ring Ghost Ax Knife is 500,000 Pearl Coins!

The price of the ghost sickle is 600,000.

The price of the last ‘Han Niang’ is 2 million.

There is a huge gap between the rich and the poor in Pearl City, and Zhang Ping does not know how much the awakened people earn.

But according to his investigation in the past few days, the average farmer's salary in Pearl City is about 3,000 Pearl coins a year, which means that if you want to buy a 'Han Niang', you will have to go without food or drink for more than 666 years.

So expensive.

Zhang Ping sighed slightly in his heart. Although he knew that super equipment was definitely not cheap, he didn't expect it to be so expensive.

"Grandpa, are there any cheaper weapons here?" Zhang Ping then turned around and found that the cheapest weapons cost tens of thousands of pearl coins, so he walked up to the old man and asked softly.

The old man took a puff of cigarette, and after about a minute and a half, he looked at Zhang Ping and said slowly: "What did you say?"

"Grandpa, I'm asking, are there any cheaper weapons here?" Zhang Ping had to ask again.

The old man looked at Zhang Ping, his reaction seemed to be slow, and it took him a while to answer the question: "My son is waiting for me to eat."

"..."

Zhang Ping was speechless for a while.

No wonder the customers in front left empty-handed.

At this time, a middle-aged strong man hurriedly walked into the store from outside.

He is estimated to be over thirty years old. He is wearing a tattered camouflage uniform. He has an inverted triangle shape. His arms are thicker than Zhang Ping's thighs. He also carries a rough, dark sword on his back. You can tell at a glance that he is. A veteran adventurer with rich experience.

"Sorry, this store doesn't sell anything for the time being." He put the weapon on his back in the corner, stepped forward and said to Zhang Ping.

When the old man saw the middle-aged man, he shouted dissatisfied: "Stinky Fart Qiang, where did you take Dashan to fool around again, where is Dashan?"

"Uncle Liu, why did you open the store again? Didn't I ask you to wait at home? I will find Dashan soon." The man nicknamed "Stinky Fart Qiang" smiled bitterly.

The old man hit Stiffy Qiang's head with a long pipe, and said, "You've been fooling around all day, so hurry up and ask Dashan to go home for dinner."

"Okay, Uncle Liu, I'll ask Dashan to go home for dinner later. Let's close the shop and go upstairs first." Stinky Fart Qiang promised repeatedly.

The old man hit the head with the long pipe again and said dissatisfied: "I'm just going to stay here. What if an old customer comes and can't find me?"

"Okay, okay, we're here, we're not going anywhere." Stinky Fart said with a forced smile.

He is a veteran among adventurers. He has a team of four under him. He has saved a lot of savings over the past ten years, and his livelihood will not be affected if he does not go on missions for several months.

But his teammates are all moonlight tribes. Once they don't go on missions and lose their source of income, their lives will become problematic.

But Uncle Liu is his closest relative, and the two of them share the same love as father and son!

Ever since his good brother Dashan disappeared, Uncle Liu's spirit has become worse and worse day by day. He is often in a trance. He is really worried about leaving Uncle Liu to live here alone.

At this time, he noticed Zhang Ping who was about to leave. Suddenly his eyes lit up and an idea came to his mind.

There is a big difference in temperament between students and people in society.

Anyone who can join the three major organizations will definitely not come here to buy weapons, and those who decide to become farmers are unlikely to come here. So does this student want to become an adventurer?

"Little brother, wait." He thought for a while and called Zhang Ping.

Zhang Ping turned around and saw Xiubi Qiang approaching, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Let's talk." Stinky Fart forced a flattering smile and said with a smile.

Zhang Ping hesitated for a moment, but seeing that Xiufiqiang didn't seem to have bad intentions, he nodded in agreement.

The two of them walked outside the store. Xiangbaiqiang subconsciously took out a cigarette and handed it to Zhang Ping. Zhang Ping waved his hand to express that he did not smoke.

"Little brother, you should be graduating soon, right?" Xiangbaiqiang reacted, put the cigarette to his ear, and then asked.

Zhang Ping nodded and said, "Soon."

"I wonder what you think of blacksmiths?"

Qiang asked carefully.

Zhang Ping thought of the slightly demented old man and immediately understood the intention of Xiu Piqiang, so he replied: "Better than being a farmer."

"Yes, yes, it's better than being a farmer." Stinky Pit Qiang nodded immediately.

It’s not that they look down on farmers.

It’s that the farmers in Pearl City are completely different from the farmers in Zhang Ping’s previous life.

Although Zhang Ping always talked about farming when they were having sex with Su Jingyao, in fact, farmers are not just farming. There are many additional tasks that need to be completed during the slack period.

For example, Pearl City does not have sewers, and it dare not have sewers.

Therefore, people’s daily excrement, household garbage, etc. need to be handled by specialized farmers.

There are also tasks such as building roads, mending city walls, raising livestock, etc., all of which require farmers to assist the awakened people to complete.

In Zhang Ping's view, the farmers in Pearl City are actually more like farmers in real-time strategy games. They have to do everything except fight.

"Brother, what do you mean..." Zhang Ping looked at Tie Zhihun, and then looked at Xiubi Qiang with probing eyes.

Seeing that Zhang Ping understood what he meant, Shoufuqiang said frankly: "I won't hide it from you, that is my uncle, who is closer than his biological father. His son is my brother Dashan. He disappeared some time ago. Uncle Liu is a little confused now, so I just want to find someone to take care of him and help look after the store.

Of course, I will come over on weekdays when I have time to teach one or two blacksmiths. I dare not say anything else. At least Bao can become a blacksmith. How about it? Let’s think about it. "

"Free food and accommodation?" Zhang Ping asked thoughtfully.

Choupi Qiang replied: "Not only free food and accommodation, but also 100 yuan salary every month!"

"I'll think about it and give you an answer tomorrow, okay?" Zhang Ping was a little tempted, but at the same time he was also worried.

Could it be that the missing Dashan was eaten by the Tianchang Fox?

In school, because 'Luo Shiyu' only eats girls, and the other Tianchang Fox pretending to be a teacher is rarely seen, boys are actually safer in school than outside.

The reason for the excitement is mainly because of 'Luo Shiyu's' room inspection in the morning.

This made him feel very insecure about the dormitory.

"Okay, you think about it carefully. By the way, you came to the store to get a handy guy, right? Just treat it as making friends. The atmosphere in the city is a little wrong recently, so you should be careful." Choupi Qiang said, stuffing a dagger into Zhang Ping's hand, and then turned and left.

After saying goodbye to Choupi Qiang, Zhang Ping left Iron Soul.

As he walked, he considered whether to agree or not, and his eyes naturally fell on the dagger.

The blade of the dagger was stored in a fish skin scabbard. He couldn't help but pull it out and found that the material of the dagger was the same as that of 'Han Niang'. The blade was snow-white and transparent, and it faintly exuded a chill.

Good guy.

This is a valuable gift.

Or... agree?

Although the school is still safe, it's hard to say now.

Zhang Ping didn't want to entrust his life to the chaotic brain of the beast. What if 'Luo Shiyu' was wrong and wanted to improve his taste?

At this moment, Zhang Ping decided to agree to Chou Pi Qiang tomorrow.

On the way, Zhang Ping couldn't let go of the dagger, because the dagger was made of the same material as Han Niang's knife, and it looked like a part separated from Han Niang's thin knife, so Zhang Ping simply named the dagger 'Beauty Tears'.

Unfortunately, Mingzhu Ability Academy did not teach students to use daggers. The weapons class only taught knives, swords, and bows, and other weapons were not within the scope of teaching.

Fortunately, some of the knife moves can actually be used with a dagger.

He walked back while simulating the scene of fighting with Beauty Tears in his mind. When he passed a park, he suddenly found a one-meter-tall Tianchang fox cub sitting on the swing in the park!

[Identification successful]

[Alienated beast: Tianchang fox]

[Race: Alienated fox]

[Potential: ????]

[Lifespan: 53]

[Level: Primary Alienated Beast]

[Level: 3]

[Talent]

[Cognitive distortion: You have the position of distorting biological cognition and can

modify the target's cognition]

[Common sense subversion: When you do something that is not in line with common sense, you can subvert the target's common sense and force the target to not notice the abnormality]

This is a very weak cub.

Zhang Ping walked forward slowly, feeling a little restless.

Evidence!

This Tianchang fox is the best evidence.

If he kills this Tianchang fox and sends the body to the investigation team, perhaps things will turn around.

The investigation team is different from the patrol team. The patrol team has thirteen teams, but all the team leaders are directly under the command of the patrol team leader.

The investigation team is centered on the team leader, and many investigation teams are not in Mingzhu City all year round, so there must be some teams that have not been infiltrated by the Tianchang Fox.

Once the investigation team gets the body of the Tianchang Fox, it will definitely immediately infer the current situation of Mingzhu City, and Mingzhu City may be saved.

"Let's do it!"

The more Zhang Ping thought about it, the more excited he became.

He really couldn't stand the fact that girls were killed in the cafeteria every few days, and he couldn't stand seeing Tianchang Fox eating people on the street.

Especially he had to pretend not to see it.

He turned around and walked back, while pressing one hand on the handle of the dagger.

In fact, another reason why he decided to take action was that he happened to get the Beauty Tears. If he didn't have the Beauty Tears in his hand, he might not have the courage to take action.

This is what is called holding a sharp weapon, and the desire to kill arises naturally.

However, as soon as he walked to a corner of the park, a hand pressed on his shoulder. Before he could fight back, a woman's voice came to his ear: "Don't move."

He felt a chill coming from behind.

Ice!

The other party was an awakener who had awakened the control of ice element.

Zhang Ping's originally restless heart quickly calmed down. First of all, the other party was not Tianchang Fox. Secondly, he did not feel the killing intention. If the other party was the bodyguard of the Tianchang Fox cub, his current mood was not right.

"Don't look back, don't talk, take it, and leave here." The woman said calmly, and at the same time stuffed a note into Zhang Ping's hand.

Suddenly, Zhang Ping felt the chill behind him disappear.

He did not look back, but pretended to lose something. After searching for a while, he simply left.

"That woman's level is probably much higher than mine, otherwise she would not have found me." He guessed on the way.

It is night now. With the talent of the Night Walker and the ability of the assassination ring, there are definitely not many people who can find him. That woman can accurately lock him, and she must be much stronger than him.

Of course, it is also possible that the other party has a teammate with the ability to "see through" and give her a hint.

Regardless of the possibility, the other party is very likely to detect the infiltration of Tianchang Fox.

"Could it be that she or they are hiring a killer to kill the beast?"

Zhang Ping muttered in his heart. He was not in a hurry to read the note left by the other party. He simply went back to the dormitory to rest.

The next day.

Four o'clock in the morning.

Zhang Ping opened his eyes, got out of bed, walked quietly into the bathroom, and sat on the toilet lid.

He took out the note from his pocket and slowly opened it.

The note read: "23, Wu Lian, Nan Yue."

Zhang Ping frowned, and in a moment he had a clue. It was the 19th, and there were four days until the 23rd.

In other words, the other party meant to meet at a place called "Wulian" in five days?

But the question is, what is Wu Lian?

Zhang Ping pondered and gradually his head hurt.

He knew in his heart that this code was probably to prevent Tian Chang Fox.

If he fell into the hands of Tian Chang Fox, the information on the note would not implicate the other party.

If you think from this perspective, then Wu Lian must be a place that Tian Chang Fox cannot understand.

Tian Chang Fox is intelligent, they know how to think, and they can even pretend, but alien beasts are alien beasts, and their ways of thinking must be different.

The problem is that Zhang Ping has not been here for too long, and even if he gets the memory of the original owner, he can't guess what the other party means by "Wulian" and "Nan Yue".
