Chapter 59 I'm super rich! (seeking subscription)
…
In the lobby downstairs, there are a few sparse figures sitting at the tables.
Seeing Matthew, the innkeeper Truger immediately greeted him warmly:
"Are you okay? When I passed by your door in the morning, I smelled some terrible smells. Do you need me to buy you some holy water?"
Matthew smiled and shook his head:
"No need, Mr. Truger, I'm fine now."
Trueger glanced at Matthew in surprise, then pouted towards the corner of the hall and said:
"You have found the guide you want. Well, that is Lao Jitou, the best guide in Zeshui City. He has crossed the rainforest 78 times without any damage. He was also the one who brought Li Weiqi to Aruneihai. road."
Matthew heard the words and looked over, and saw a dark-skinned, taciturn old man.
He looks like he is in his fifties and almost sixty, with a light and white beard, and sharp eyes. He is sitting quietly on a table at the moment, smoking a pipe.
Meeting Matthew's gaze, he nodded slightly.
"Matthew, you have to be careful, this man has several lives in his hands!"
Matthew's chest suddenly swelled, but it was Ella who came out of the skirt to remind him.
Matthew nodded to indicate that he understood.
But he didn't particularly care about it. How could a person who can live through the rainforest many times be a good stubble?
And when it comes to human lives, Matthew also has a lot of hands.
So he walked over generously and stretched out his right hand:
"Hello, Mr. Guide."
Old Ji glanced at him, moved away from the direction of the dry smoke, and after exhaling a circle of smoke, he shook his head and said:
"Just call me Old Jitou, and other young people, I want to give you a piece of advice - in Zeshui City, don't reach out to people casually, normal people will not shake hands with you, and those who shake hands with you will usually infect you with the plague. "
Matthew showed a teachable expression:
"I see, thank you, old Jitou."
"Trug told me that you are going to Aruneihai?" the old Jitou asked:
"What are you going to do, is it convenient to disclose?"
Matthew thought for a while:
"Walk around and see the scenery on the sea?"
Old Jitou smiled: "You might as well say that you want to see the hotness of jungle women—at least the last guest told me so, and I believed it."
As he spoke, his face became serious:
"I can take you there, but along the way, you have to listen to me completely! Remember, don't provoke the Jangos, don't put everything in your mouth, and don't see a woman throwing herself into her arms."
Matthew said with great interest:
"Is there anything to say about these three prohibitions?"
Old Jitou gently taps the cigarette **** on the table:
"There's nothing to say, it's just three lives. The guest who provoked the Jango was beheaded, and you can still see artworks made of his skull in a headhunter tribe in the east of the rainforest;
The one who grabbed the wild berries and ate them has been rotting in the swamp for seven or eight years;
As for the last guest, he once spent several nights with a Jango native, but later abandoned the woman who begged him not to leave. In the end, he was eaten half of his face and his whole **** by a Gu insect. . "
Seeing the terrified look on Matthew's face.
The old Jitou changed the subject: "But as long as you listen to me and don't cause trouble, then the road I take you will be safe. It's a pity that judging from my experience in leading the way for so many years, it's really true to let the employer not cause trouble. It’s a very difficult thing, and some people just don’t have any.”
While speaking, he kept looking at Matthew:
"I hope you are not that kind of person."
Matthew pondered: "In the rainforest, I will listen to your opinion to the greatest extent, and never cause trouble if it is not necessary."
Old Jitou put away the dry tobacco:
"That would be the best. Here is a list of necessary items for traveling through the rainforest. You can go to the market to buy them by yourself. We will start tomorrow morning. By the way, I am not the only guest for this trip through the rainforest. There is also a guy who found it yesterday. I—the one who claims to experience the heat of the jungle women, he will walk with us for a while."
Matthew asked curiously, "What kind of guest is that?"
Old Jitou showed a complex expression for the first time:
"Indescribable, a poet."
At this moment, a young man with a cropped head, bare feet, and an open chest suddenly came in from outside the hotel.
As soon as he entered the door, he walked towards Matthew with a smile on his face:
"Oh, dear old Jitou, is this the companion who is about to travel through the rainforest with us?"
Without waiting for the old Jitou to agree, he leaned over to give Matthew a big hug:
"Old Jitou taught me yesterday that you can't shake hands casually with people in Zeshui City, so I think I can only express my uncontrollable excitement with hugs.
Hahaha!
The genius poet Lorraine is about to embark on a journey through the terrifying rainforest with his passerby partner A.
This is really exciting! "
Matthew glanced at the abnormally thick chest hair of the other party, and avoided it calmly.
"Hello, Matthew."
He briefly introduces himself.
"Good name, Matthew, you are the name of the protagonist of my next work!"
Lorland didn't mind Matthew's dodge. He was leaning against the wall post chicly, with a confident and sunny smile on his face:
"Your complexion is not very good, do you have a fever? Do you need holy water? I bought a lot."
Matthew wanted to refuse.
Unexpectedly, the other party conjured up a set of light blue glass tubes like a magic trick, and then stuffed them into Matthew's hands:
"Even if you're not sick, it's okay. Keep it as a spare. There are many insects and snakes in the rainforest. When it's useful, don't worry about me hurting you. Look at the package of the holy water. I just bought it from the "Feathered Serpent Temple". It hasn't been opened yet! "
"Don't shirk it. Old Jitou also accepted my holy water. If you don't believe me, if you ask him, treat it as a gift from the first meeting."
Matthew looked at the old Jitou suspiciously.
The latter shrugged.
Matthew hesitated for a while. This set of holy water was indeed unopened, even the price tag was not torn off. It said "20 gold coins/6 bottles".
Lorraine's enthusiasm made Matthew uncomfortable.
He shied away a few times.
But the other party's expression of turning his face if he didn't accept it finally made Matthew accept the meeting gift.
"That's it!"
Lorland patted Matthew's shoulder happily and said:
"Accept the gift, you are my true friend, Lorraine!
I once stayed in "Cloud City" for a while, the cloud elves there, you know, are always known for their arrogance, and hardly interact with humans, but they get along very well with me.
Later, someone couldn't help but ask me: Luolan, what is so special about you that you can make the proud cloud elves be friends with you?
And my answer is only one sentence——
I'm super rich! "
These words caught the attention of several people in the hall.
A pair of malicious eyes cast over.
However, Lorraine was not afraid at all. He smiled and opened his robe, revealing the scrolls and spells pinned to his belt, and said to others:
"Everyone, don't try to attack me just because I have money. Have you seen the "Scroll of Forbidden Curse" and "Legendary Charm", don't put your life on the line for a little money, it's not worth it. "
"You know, the real rich have a lot of things to save their lives. Don't use your life to test my wallet."
In the hall.
Old Jitou smoked silently without saying a word.
The others slowly withdrew their greedy gazes.
Matthew looked at Lorraine curiously, are all the rich people in this world so ostentatious?
Lorland also seemed to be interested in him. He sat down with Matthew, asked Truger to bring some local specialties, and chatted endlessly.
Mostly Lorraine eloquently:
"Why should I become a bard? Because there is no other talent!
I was born in a super rich family. My grandfather was a great mage, and my father could only wield swords and guns. I am the only son of this generation, but I am useless in both magic and martial arts.
My mother was very worried about this. She was afraid that I would not be able to keep the family business, so she found her first love—a romantic and legendary poet. She asked him how to train her son to become a powerful bard.
The man replied: Give your son a large sum of money, let him wander in the big cities, tell him to go in and out of the crowd of women, and after a lot of experience, he will naturally become a poet.
My mother believed in her first love, so at the age of seventeen, I took a large sum of money and went to "Deep Blue Harbor" alone.
That person was really right.
After more than ten years of tossing, I achieved nothing, and then I became a poet. "
"Before coming to Zeshui City, I stayed in "Smandi" for a while, where perfumes, spices and beauties are abundant, and it is also known as "City of Hundred Flowers".
I'm doing well in Smarty and have a lot of friends.
Honestly, I don't want to leave there, Smandy has a lot of fascinating women—
The smell of a lady makes me linger, and the fragrance of a girl also makes me intoxicated.
But the distance is calling me, and I encountered a revelation from heaven in Smandy—
Afterwards, I clearly realized that if I want to write better works, I have to experience more novel things, so I had to reject the tearful lovers and came to this mountain city in the north of the rainforest. We are about to enter the rainforest, which is really exciting. "
…
Hearing this, Matthew couldn't help asking:
"Revelation from heaven?"
Lorraine lazily replied:
"Just one time, when I was having an affair with a noble lady and her daughter, I was discovered by the head of the family, and their family suddenly fell into madness."
Matthew suddenly took a breath.
"It must have been an embarrassing scene," Matthew said.
"Exactly."
Lorraine said with emotion: "Especially when the host asked me 'what am I?' in front of his wife and daughter, I instantly realized that this was a revelation from God—it was time to leave Baihua city."
It's not just Matthew.
Even Ella, who was lying on his chest and listening with gusto, was stunned!
"just kidding!"
Lorraine laughed suddenly:
"You don't really believe that I can put their family to bed, do you?
Even the poorest poet lays the hook at the end of a passage, which is necessary to attract the audience.
As for the real reason why I left the City of Hundred Flowers, I will tell you next time when we talk in detail.
It's getting late, we should go to the market to buy the things on the list, hey, where is the old jitou? "
