Dawn of the Grey Tower

The restaurant is not far from the courtyard of the Saint in the Stone. I want to come because the nearby buildings are like iron felt avenues, which are gathering areas for a certain ethnic group. At least here, the proportion of people with skin color and hair color similar to cheese is quite high, and the wood and stone buildings also reveal an exotic atmosphere. I am afraid that only the characteristics of rushing can allow its residents to create such a strange block in the city as if it were an enclave from afar.

Walking on the street, it is not difficult to see that the fisherman and the old man Shi should have a high reputation here, especially the old man Shi. Almost every pedestrian will respectfully stop and pay his respects when he walks on the street. And Cheese also keenly discovered that if the stone beasts in the previous buildings were a ubiquitous way of decoration, then the unified stone lions on the street and the store entrances obviously have exceeded this range. It is like some kind of totem, indicating the power that this family belongs to. So as the person who made these stone beasts, the old stone man probably has a certain special status here.

"What do these stone lions do?" On the way, Cheese couldn't help asking the two old men. Although Jian Qi had told him about stone beasts, especially the use and meaning of stone lions in their native land, he always felt that these stone lions on display were not just symbols. The feeling of being on the back has not disappeared since the small courtyard of stone carvings. The mage tried to find the source of his sight, but could not find any monitors that might exist. In the end, he could only draw a slightly absurd conclusion. Starting from the appearance of this feeling, it was only these stone beasts that most likely made him feel under surveillance.

The old man Shi smiled when he heard the words. He knew exactly what the cheese was talking about. The sculptor replied with a slightly proud tone, "The stone lion is naturally used to suppress evil. Generally speaking, we think the so-called The evil is bad luck and a villain. In reality, you are an alchemist, so you must understand that there are not only people in this world, but ghosts and gods are with us in this earthly world. They may be a blessing or a curse for you and me. Whether it is a blessing or a curse, the things they bring are ultimately difficult for ordinary people to bear. Therefore, in terms of humanity, they are also evil. I, a stone lion, cannot suppress bad luck, but it has some effect on ghosts and gods."

This remark sounds like a cloud at first, because it implies a premise that ordinary people don't know, that is the existence of the dark side of this world. Therefore, for people like Jian Qi, ghosts and gods are still a distant concept after all, neither real nor appropriate. Compared with them, the monsters in Jiefa Town have more presence. But cheese is a spellcaster. He deeply knows that the world is not nothing outside of conventional perceptions such as vision and hearing. Those things that happen in the dark, which ordinary people think quietly, look like in another way. The earth is shaking as obvious as the mountains are shaking. In other words, what these stone lions are aimed at is magic.

This explains why the gray robe reacts to the stone beast and Jian Qi is completely unaware of it. Qi is a subtle power, but it is far from magic. From this point of view, these lions of Old Man Stone are definitely more than just making the caster uncomfortable, but they are obviously not the kind of golem that automatically senses the enemy's attack, because they have not seen any in the small carving courtyard. organ. So, when magic strikes, in what way will these stone beasts fight back? This is really a curious question, and cheese even wants to try it. Fortunately, his reason told him that he should not do this now.

"You two are here, please come inside. The table on the second floor by the window is reserved for you." The waiter in the restaurant was very familiar with the two elderly people, and directly guided to the seat without asking.

The second elder was also unceremonious. As the fisherman walked up the stairs, he told the waiter, "Kill me a big fish, cut three catties of beef, and four side dishes. The most important thing is wine. Give me two jars of daughter red!"

"Oh! Is it that the short-eyed man who wants to rob you and let you rob you of your wealth, or have you changed to robbery? This is not your style, Yu Lao." The guy exclaimed in an exaggerated tone.

"You have a long tongue, you dare to say anything. You ask so much what you are doing, did you see this? I can't owe you!" said the fisherman, taking a thick silver coin from his arms and swaying it in front of the guy. .

"Xiao Er, didn't you listen to Mr. Yu's words? Go to the kitchen and kill our biggest and most lively carp today, have you heard! Let the cook make a three-food supplement for Mr. Yu and Lao Shi, go!" The voice came from the accountant, and the man with a three-handed beard holding an abacus shouted to the buddy, it seemed that it was the treasurer here. The voice shouted, not only the buddy, but the whole restaurant could hear clearly.

The fisherman's waist seemed to be straighter. Although he didn't care about these trivial matters for a long time because of his cultivation, I have to say that the silver in the waist felt really stiff. Moreover, the two people have always been drinking mostly because Shi Lao paid the money. There is no other reason. Compared with selling grilled fish, doing stone carving is obviously a more lucrative business. Although neither grilling fish nor stone carving is for the sake of making money, they have to live on money.

While talking, a few people have already been seated on the second floor of the restaurant. Compared with the first floor, the tables here are sparser and the distance between them is also greater. You can see that it is for guests who do not want to be disturbed. of. The two old people sat unceremoniously by the window, the cheese and the others could only sit by the side. Before the wine and the dishes were served, the fisherman looked at Jian Qi and suddenly asked, "Anyway, I am idle, tell me Tell me what happened to your injury. UU reading www.uukānshu.com Although the two old guys won’t help you get revenge, it’s fate to meet each other, maybe I can give you some hints. But if you don’t tell me, it’s too. No problem."

Jian Qi and Cheese glanced at each other. After the latter nodded slightly, the Sword Seeker confided in the restaurant that they were attacked by the Nine Rings Gang yesterday. After he finished speaking, Shi Lao talked first, "It's not surprising that your cultivation is still shallow, you don't have a qi body protection, and if you can't deal with it in time, you will be no different from ordinary people. In addition, it is the nine rings. It is also impossible to assist in a sneak attack."

"Blow, then you blow, as if you have some bodyguard qi that can make you invulnerable. Swordsman, don’t listen to his nonsense. This bodyguard qi is trained to nine levels, but it can break the wind and sweep the dust. It’s nothing more than a weak bow. What a crossbow is, within two hundred steps, even if you wear a stomach, it can give you a cool heart. It’s useless to practice any turtle king and eight skills, don’t listen to him. ."

Shi Lao's face was blue and red, and it was about to happen, but the cheese suddenly said, "Listen to what you two mean, do you know the Jiuhuan Gang?"

The fisherman had the upper hand in his tongue and replied triumphantly, "You have to ask other gangs. Our two old guys really don’t know much. But you have to ask the Nine Rings Gang, hehe, it’s really good. Jianmen has some origins."
