Chapter 40 (1/2)
”Mad rat” green stands at the door of the tavern. The setting sun comes in behind him, casting an orange halo on his outline. He didn't say anything. It was quiet like a sculpture.
Zhao Mai stood up, pulled aside the chair beside him and asked green to sit down. ”I've been thinking about where you've been, and now I know you're OK.”
”A group of idiots caught me together, and it took me a long time to come back.” Green grinned, and red blood could be seen between his teeth. ”Those stupid thieves have found the wrong target, so they are willing to return these things.”
Zhao Mai took the salt bag and threw it on the table without looking at it. He reached for Green's drooping right shoulder to find out how the injury was. From Green's grinning expression, the injury is not optimistic.
”You are dislocated. I can cure you.” In the spirit of a friend's friend is his friend, dwarf Sok a forward, holding green's arm is a swing. It seems like a mess, but after a few ”quacking” and ”ouch, Hello,” green has been able to lift his shoulders and move normally.
”Thank you, Mr. dwarf. You are a good craftsman.”
Suok chuckled, his beard cocked slightly. ”It's nothing. I used to swing a pickaxe and often dislocated. I've been cured for a long time. Take care not to exert yourself these days and have a lot of rest. ”
Zhao Mai nodded, ”green, thank you. Let's sit down and have a drink. I'm not good at common language. I need you to explain it for me. ”
”Well, that's my job, too. You paid for it.”
The dwarf remembered his business and put his musket on the table. The heavy metal pipe made a heavy ”bang bang” sound, which scared Zhao Mai to think that he was on fire. On the contrary, green didn't respond. It seems that he really didn't know what it was.
”I don't believe that you know muskets. I haven't seen you before, so I have to test you. ” Suok is very proud of his invention. Even if ”Mike” is a person he is willing to identify with, he can't lower his standard. ”Do you know how to use it?”
Seriously, Zhao Mai has never fired a gun. At least the gun propelled by explosives has never been used. As for the water gun and That doesn't count. But even if his practical ability is zero, his theoretical knowledge is far beyond the world.
Take up the gun, that skilled posture let dwarves all have some envy. He weighed the weight with his hand, and then took a look in front of his eyes. Without a sight, he could only hit blindly. This gun uses rear loading, just like a real double barreled shotgun, which can be folded down by opening a mechanism.
”What do you put in it, can you show me?”
The dwarf took out a small bag from behind, opened it and put it in front of Zhao Mai. Green also looked curiously, but there was no clue from the balls and small paper bags.
After twisting the paper package with his hand, Zhao Mai found that they were all a little damp, and it was as expected. ”It's all wet. How can you shoot the iron ball?”
”This thing is afraid of water?” Sok had a look of surprise.
