A man in the ark was forced to become a king

But the profession of bounty hunter is inherently unstable, and her income is closely related to the tasks she receives. In order to maintain the daily consumption of her body, she eats more than ordinary people, so she barely maintains food and clothing most of the time. on-line.

It was the same this time. Before she got the mission bounty, she didn't have any extra money to pay for the fare. The only money she had left was here.

"Enough, enough."

Lao Li smiled and took the two banknotes without looking at them, and there was no need to look at them.

The blue coin is undoubtedly a Longmen coin, but the face value is... too small.

Not to mention paying the fare, even eating a bowl of wontons on the streets of Longmen is a bit reluctant.

However, he had no intention of collecting money in the first place, so it didn't matter.

"Girl, get in the car. Your sword is a bit big. You can sit in the back seat, but I'm afraid it won't fit in the trunk."

"it is good."

Hearing what Lao Li said, Skadi carefully reached out to open the car door, picked up the sword with one hand and placed it at his feet.

crunch~

The moment the sword was put up, the Beetle became visibly shorter, which made Lao Li's palms tremble.

He is indeed a ruthless man. The weight of this sword alone should be conservatively estimated to be over a hundred kilograms. How much it is, there is no way to estimate it directly with the naked eye.

If you want to lift such a heavy weapon, many people can do it, but if you want to use it in battle, only a few can do it.

Not to mention anything else, even if the weight of the weapon itself is smashed directly, the steel bars will be bent, and the person will be killed or maimed if it falls on him.

However, such a big killing weapon was lifted by the girl's slender arms that were far from strong. It was as light as lifting a wooden stick.

Crunch!

What Lao Li didn't expect was that the little beetle immediately let out another overwhelmed whine.

After placing the sword, Skadi's man sat up. As she sat up, the Beetle's chassis lowered again. Although it had not yet touched the ground, it was almost there.

This girl's weight is actually much heavier than that sword!

what monster?

A heavy weapon is not common, but it is not something that would make Lao Li fuss. But Skadi’s weight really made Lao Li a little nervous. He thought to himself that this girl doesn’t look heavy at all. How can she be compared to iron? Still heavy?

Even if his small car is full of fat people, it won't be crushed like this. How much does it weigh?

Good guy, if it were heavier, I'm afraid it wouldn't even crush the car.

No wonder, no wonder he could use a sword weighing at least a hundred kilograms. Things suddenly became reasonable.

"how?"

Sitting in the car, Skadi also felt obvious changes under her buttocks, and the embarrassment in her eyes became even worse.

She naturally knew her weight, but she had never been in a car since arriving on land.

Argo also has similar means of transportation, but Argo's cars generally take into account certain special circumstances of the Argo people, and this problem will not occur.

"Nothing, nothing."

Lao Li waved his hands repeatedly, sighed imperceptibly, and sat in the driver's seat.

If he was to take this girl back to Longmen, the little Beetle that had been with him for many years would probably suffer a serious blow. It would have to be returned to the factory for overhaul after arriving at Longmen.

There was nothing he could do about it. Who said he had brought this on himself?Even if the tooth is broken, it has to be swallowed into the stomach.

"Girl, sit still."

Toot toot~

The Beetle's engine started running, the body creaked, and it swayed forward.

It's just that the speed is not satisfactory.

Such a heavy load has exceeded its endurance range, and it is not easy to drive it. There is no way to ask for more.

"Girl, what's your name?"

The speed of the car was not very fast, and Lao Li couldn't stop talking.

It was easy to talk to when there was no one in the car before, but with one more person, he instinctively wanted to say something to relieve the silent atmosphere in the car.

"Skaty."

With her foot on her sword, the girl from the deep sea fell silent again after saying her name.

It was obvious that she was not very good at talking to others and spoke very little.

"What are your plans for going to Longmen?"

"I want to go there to submit a bounty mission. There should be a bounty station in Longmen, right?"

After hearing this question, Skadi suddenly remembered that she didn't seem to ask Longmen if there was a place where she could submit bounty tasks.

If not, she won't have extra money out of thin air after she goes there, and she still won't be able to buy supplies.

Apart from her job as a bounty hunter, she can't do anything else.

"Of course there is. Longmen is the commercial capital of world civilization. Most things can be found there. You are in the right place this time. Today is the New Year in Longmen. Even if you can't receive the bounty temporarily, there are still many merchants. We will provide free food to passers-by to celebrate.”

As a veteran who has been in the world for many years, Lao Li is very familiar with these matters. He could see the girl's embarrassment at a glance and comforted her casually.

"New Year? Free food?"

The words "free food" greatly aroused Skadi's interest. She subconsciously touched her shriveled belly, and her hunger became more and more obvious.

Corresponding to the terrifying physical strength is a huge amount of energy consumption. She eats a lot, and it is difficult to eat enough. If there is a lot of free food, maybe...

"The New Year is a festival of the Yan Kingdom, a day for family reunion. Those who are able will rush home on this day to reunite with their families."

Lao Li was not surprised that the girl didn't know about the Yanguo New Year. After all, it was just a festival for the Yanguo. Outside the Yanguo, it was normal for those who had not understood the Yanguo culture to be unclear.

"Reunion... family..."

Through the rearview mirror, Lao Li saw that the girl's eyes suddenly dimmed, as if she was remembering something sad, and he immediately realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing.

I never thought before that if you start out as a bounty hunter at this age and walk alone in the wilderness, something big must have happened at home.

This can be regarded as which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted.

So he quickly made up for it: "If you don't have a place to stay in Longmen, you might as well live with me first. My house is quite big. Apart from the few naughty children at home, there are still several empty rooms."

"child……"

Skadi chewed on the word and shook his head slightly.

"No, I can just find a place. It's no problem in a park or a bridge. If it's too close, it will cause trouble for you."

Haiji's shadow always hangs over her body, and those things never give up.

If you get too close to ordinary people, it will only bring disaster to them.

Therefore, she did not plan to stop at Longmen, collect the bounty, and leave immediately after buying supplies.

"Trouble? What trouble can there be?"

Lao Li was a little unimpressed by her statement, and felt a little distressed.

Living in a park or under a bridge is something that only homeless people do, but a girl of this age seems to be very familiar with that kind of place. You can imagine how much hardship she has endured.

This damn world!

Cursing secretly, Lao Li held the steering wheel with one hand, turned his head slightly, and said with a proud smile: "I'm not afraid of any trouble now. Don't look at me like this. In the realm of Longmen, I still have some abilities. .”

He said this not to show off, because he wanted to show his face in front of the little girl.

Li's Detective Agency is not too far away from the Golden Tree. That area can be said to be the safest place in Longmen, and there are several big guys from the Golden Tree sitting in charge. Who dares to cause trouble there?

During this period, the housing prices in that area have soared, and many people can't even buy a house through the back door because of their connections!

"No... you don't know. In short, don't have anything to do with me."

Skadi still shook his head.

Her situation is different. Haiji doesn't choose the location for his attack, and land people don't have the ability to deal with Haiji.

In order not to bring trouble to others, she must keep to herself.

In fact, this hitchhiking was considered a small exception. Otherwise, she would not have agreed if she was really hungry and continued to look for places to resupply.

"Okay, let's wait until we get to Longmen."

Lao Li did not continue. He had already made up his mind to go to the Golden Tree after arriving at Longmen.

With Miss Skadi's strength, there is a high chance that she will be favored by the Golden Tree, and then she will be able to get rid of the hard life of relying on bounty missions...

Ok?

Thinking of this, Lao Li felt something was wrong.

He suddenly realized that his attitude towards Miss Skadi seemed to be a little too good.

Although he is usually very kind-hearted, he would not do it to this extent for a stranger he met in the wilderness.

There seemed to be something about Skadi that attracted him, causing him to unconsciously develop a great liking for her.

It was obviously the first time we met, but there was a feeling that we had known each other for a long time, which was strange.

Sensing something was wrong with him, Lao Li gave up the idea of ​​chatting for a while and fell into thinking.

In the back seat, Skadi looked at the retreating scenery outside the car window for a while, pursed her lips slightly, and couldn't help but think of the past in her heart.

Dragon Gate, New Year, reunion, family...

She also had it once...

But now...

The touch of the sword was right under her feet. Apart from this sword, she had nothing left.

Even her comrades who fought side by side died in that decisive battle, and she was the only deep sea hunter left.

This feeling of emptiness...is it loneliness?

Chapter 195 The Temptation of Gold

"Sister, why didn't you ask me to come over when you went to Yumen..."

Because of the large number of people, Wei Yanwu specially set aside a courtyard as the venue for the New Year's Eve dinner. Although Longmen was a bit cold in winter, everyone present was not mediocre, so it didn't matter.

In addition, Melina specially mobilized a ray of yellow light from the golden tree to cover it, giving the courtyard a spring climate. All the cold was isolated, and there was not much difference between the courtyard and the house.

Nian moved a chair and sat aside, resting his chin on the back of the chair, rocking around in boredom.

She really doesn't have much interest in the Chinese New Year, a festival that originated from her.

Others celebrated the New Year with the intention of celebrating it, setting off fireworks to drive away the Nian beast, but she was the Nian beast itself, so she couldn't drive herself away, right?

It feels weird when I think about it.

Xi followed the cooking with great interest. Ever since the shadow of the Sui beast dissipated and she had a complete solution, her knot in her heart has been getting better day by day. She also likes to go out for a walk occasionally, and she is becoming more and more active.

"What do you want to do?"

Ling was leaning against the big tree in the courtyard, still holding the same wine gourd that was always in his hand. He occasionally took a sip and looked at the night sky, his eyes wandering, not knowing what he was thinking.

After listening to Nian's complaint, she turned around and scolded with a smile: "You guy, when I invited you to go with me, you disliked the desert because of the too much sand and wind, and now you are complaining here. How can you be of use in the matter of Yumen?"

"Your good husband, he expelled all the evil spirits and alien species with just one person out of seclusion. He is unparalleled in the limelight. He is completely famous. If I ask you to come over, what can you do?"

"I'm not bored."

Nian Gao was rocking back and forth in his chair, rolled his eyes, and suddenly said: "Sister, aren't you envious?"

"Let me tell you, Lin Lu is unprecedented, and there will probably be no one like him in the future. If you are idle and lonely, you must seize the opportunity. I don't mind sharing it with you -"

Boom!

Disillusioned, Ling flashed next to Nian and punched her on the head.

"I see that you have not made any progress over the years, but you have become a lot more courageous. Even your sister dares to tease you!"

"I'm telling the truth!"

Nian was beaten even though he was beaten. He still held his neck and spoke plausibly.

"After all these years, do you really not feel lonely? It's good to have someone to live with. If you are always bored on your own, problems will arise sooner or later!"
