Chapter 1073 (1/1)
In the evening, oil lamps were lit in the Ivy League tavern. Usually this tavern will become a common resting place for lumberjack and townspeople who have been working hard for a whole day, and the lights are always bright until late at night. But at this time, the situation in jiefa town was obviously different from that in previous years, so the lights in the tavern became sparse and the customers had only one table. The customers of this table are naturally cheese and his party. The mage finally came back earlier than Jian Qi, and his face was obviously angry when he came back. If he hadn't walked normally and his face was not hurt, the tavern owner's wife would have thought he had just had a fight.
Naturally, cheese didn't fight with anyone. After so much experience, few things could make him really angry. But no matter how many things have gone through, being maliciously speculated on will make the good people feel resentful. Those with good thoughts are the mages who follow ban Yang, while those who speculate on him with malice are the children of the old man who was the first to fall into a long sleep. Different from banyan, they showed total distrust and great suspicion to the stranger. Even after the cheese showed the items including gloves, which indicated that he was a doctor, they thought he was a fake wizard.
”The people here are unreasonable. They want to splash me with pig blood At the dinner table, cheese's fingers beat on the table and complained to his companion.
”You don't like it when I say that. Did you use a knife to cure the disease? We usually call such people butchers. ” The landlady, who brought the food to the table, rolled her eyes. As a native hairdresser, she, like the family visited by the mage in the afternoon, couldn't understand the treatment of cheese. In people's understanding of medical treatment here, medical treatment should be incense and herbs, or weird rituals. Instead of coming up and putting out a row of bright sharp weapons, telling the families of patients to use these things to solve their family's illness. No wonder cheese was treated like that.
”I used these knives to save a country plagued by plague.” Cheese almost gnawed his teeth and said this sentence. You should know that he had not been treated like this when Cangshi was treating rat man plague. Of course, this is mainly because the people of Cang lion didn't regard rat man as human at that time. If the mage was digging human corpses with normal appearance, he would not be treated much better.
For the mage's retort, the landlady chose to turn around and leave. What she heard most in this tavern was the bragging remarks of the drinkers. She heard more about dragons in the mountains, gold in tree trunks, fairies in the woods and so on. In her opinion, cheese may be a well-educated doctor and may have some prestige in some areas. But save a country's plague on your own? Let's forget it.
Not only did they feel embarrassed when they sat at the table. Among the two men and one cat, only ATA has ever been to the Cang lion, and she has not been there for a long time. Although she has heard some rumors about the mage, those contents have long been fermented into all kinds of weird and strange theories. What's more, there are not many people who know what Cheese did in the rat man plague. The mage himself soon noticed this. He took a deep breath and stopped complaining. The cheese couldn't cut the bread in front of her with a knife and fork, and changed the topic, ”how about going to the blacksmith's in the afternoon?”
”A little bit of trouble.” Jian Qi looked at ATA, then frowned slightly after confirming that the other side didn't explain it first. ”The situation we met in the blacksmith's shop is similar to that of you. The shop was run by a father and a son, and the father was in a daze all day, and the son was upset. In fact, it's OK. I still know some basic iron making techniques. I can make suitable shoes by relying on the things in the blacksmith's shop. However, the father and son did not want to lend the workshop because of our origin. We tried to persuade, but their attitude was very firm. As I said before, we are not welcome in this town. ”
As for the attitude of jiefa town towards outsiders, the sword seeker did remind him that he chose to camp outside the town. At this time, it is reasonable to say that they should leave as soon as possible. There is really no place for them to stay in this town. Moreover, the more we stay here, the more uncomfortable the atmosphere of decay pervading the town and the hostility of the townspeople towards outsiders. This time cheese sighed and did not express his opinion.
”Please don't be so arbitrary.” The female swordsman looked at Jian Qi. She was actually surprised by the other party's words. In the afternoon, the sword seeker showed humility and even humility towards the son of the irascible blacksmith. She thought Jian Qi would try to persuade the other side again the next day. Those who didn't want to look for swords came back at night, but immediately suggested that several people should leave. She was a little confused about this man.
Jian Qi blinked when he heard ATA's words. He didn't feel upset because he was refuted. He looked at the swordsman and said, ”girl, what do you mean?”
”They resist US because of fear, and they live in fear now. Something's hurting them in the town. As long as we disperse those things, I don't think the people here will be the same. ” It may be because he thought of what happened on the grassland, or out of self-confidence in himself and his companions, ATA appeared confident when he said this.
”This...” Jian Qi didn't expect that the other side would say this. He looked down for a moment and said with a smile, ”it's OK. Since you are willing to help others, I am willing to go with you. ””Don't jump to conclusions. Even if we want to help, the people here don't even want to let us see the patients. If we don't look at the problem comprehensively, we can't really solve the problem. ” Cheese put down his knife and fork and expressed his opinion. When he met banyan in the afternoon, he made it clear that he wanted to help the town. The question was whether the other side wanted to accept help.
So the problem comes back to the beginning. For this small team from outside, the town is separated by a transparent wall. If there is no opportunity to break it, they can't really go deep. The atmosphere on the dining table became low. Several people, including the cat goblin, quietly solved the food in front of them and stopped talking. They are all thinking, thinking about what can be done in this thing.
”Have you noticed,” suddenly, Jian Qi raised his head and looked at the other two people, ”is the father of the shopkeeper sleeping too long?”
Almost as he said this, the sound of the weight falling to the ground came from the room behind the counter.
