The Secret Garden of the Dandelion Troupe
Chapter 231 Small Town Shop
A night hunter's office is to be established in the small town, which is not good news for Mu Hua.
How to put it, just like in a remote mountainous area, if you suddenly feel the urge to pee, you can just find a place to relieve yourself, and no one will care if you are encountered.
But the Night Hunters are more positive, and they will take care of some things that should be ordinary.
For example, if Mu Hua had a conflict with someone in the town, as long as a normal person dealt with it, he would discuss right and wrong. As long as he didn't show any disability, even if there was a fight, everyone would talk to each other first.
But it would be more troublesome if the night hunters saw this, especially when the identities of the two parties in the conflict are adventurers and settlers.
When the two sides fight, the adventurer must be at fault first! If the settlers suffered some losses, these night hunters would dance even more fiercely than those who suffered losses.
Use force to uphold justice. If you can suppress it with force, use force. If force is not effective, use various legal aids.
Anyway, if you don't make the adventurer call him daddy, it won't be complete.
As long as the people they consider to be 'extraordinary' do something in the human world, they are more nosy than the police.
To a certain extent, the Night Hunters gained their reputation among the settlers by suppressing adventurers in the human world.
This naturally also results in most adventurers not liking them very much.
The appearance of Ronald and the others seems to mean that Bear Pig Town has received attention from all walks of life.
Unlike Weir, Mu Hua did not want to have too many interactions with these night hunters who could be sent to establish offices in new places.
Again, if you want to make friends with dogs, you should be very majestic when you scare people, but if you are bitten by a dog, you should have no regrets.
A little arrogantly, he shook off Ronald and the others, and heard Will say that he had just seen several vampires going to the magic material store.
Mu Hua was curious about how the vampires in the other courtyard got along with the people in the town, so he simply went to the magic material store in the town.
Malzi Selma, although she may be just an ordinary person, she is an old lady who is more like a witch than any witch Mu Hua has ever seen.
She has a very conspicuous hooked nose, a stooped figure due to her age, and some age spots on her face. She often wears loose mage robes.
Thelma's image is very different in the town, and she usually has some weird smell of magic materials on her body. In both appearance and temperament, she looks like the witch in the story.
I heard that she worked as a maid for a witch when she was young. Later, the witch died and she came to settle in a small town.
Because she would teach the children in the town some precautions about magic items and magic materials, many middle-aged people in the town now received her tutoring when they were young.
Although her image is a bit scary, her reputation in the town is not low.
And because she had lost five husbands, no one of her daughters dared to marry yet, which also made Thelma seem a bit mean in recent years.
"Hi, Thelma, how's your business lately?" Mu Hua greeted the old woman behind the counter as she walked into the magic materials store located in the best part of town.
"Damn the Adventurer's Guild, I'm about to be forced to close down. Mu, you should suggest that the academy come to me to purchase goods, and I will give you a satisfactory commission." Facing Mu Hua, who was looking around after entering the room, Sai Erma opened her mouth to complain.
"Ha, there aren't many people in town buying magic materials, and the Adventurer's Guild doesn't sell apple pies." Mu Hua walked to the counter and joked.
Xiongzhu Town was originally a remote town, and you couldn't expect the magic materials here to be sold well.
In the past, when there were many ferocious bears and pigs around the town, Thelma would prepare poison for the townspeople to kill the bears and pigs, and some of the trap materials sold well.
However, as the bears and pigs were hunted down, the magic materials in Selma's store were basically unsaleable.
Although it has the sign of a Magic Materials Store, actually, well, the apple pie from Malz's Magic Materials Store is very popular with the townspeople. . .
"Damn it, didn't you see I still have guests here? No one will use magic fruit to make apple pie, don't want me to buy your magic fruit." Faced with Mu Hua's teasing, Thelma said angrily.
The Selma store is laid out like a small supermarket, with many bottles and cans on the shelves, and even some ‘parts’ taken from living things.
There were two men in the store at this time. Mu Hua walked in and looked at them, but did not say hello to them.
Although the appearance of the two vampires is no different from that of humans, the whites of the vampire's eyes have a faint silvery metallic color, which can be easily distinguished as long as one has a little knowledge of the vampires.
Unlike Mu Hua's imagination, these two vampires were not students from Dusk Villa, but two vampires from outside.
"Oh, Selma, don't be like this. The magic fruit is just a small suggestion. Let's see what gift I bring you." Mu Hua turned over his hand and took out an item and smiled at Selma.
Vampires can also have legal identities. As long as they don't cause trouble, they can take a bath in public baths. Mu Hua is not a policeman, so naturally he can't question them.
"Your suggestion makes Sam very nervous. He is afraid that I will steal his fast food restaurant business. Damn it, they have forgotten the original... Huh?" Thelma grumbled, when she saw the items Mu Hua put on the counter. , couldn't help but stare.
"All Mandrakes?" Thelma looked at Mu Hua doubtfully.
"How was it? Do you like it?" Mu Hua asked with a smile while sitting on the swivel chair in front of the counter.
"It's not easy to collect. The price of the whole plant is not low. What? Do you want me to help you pursue Atina?" Selma asked Mu Hua after picking up the whole Mandela plant and looking through it.
"...No, it's just a gift for you. I collected a batch and won't use it for a while." Mu Hua twitched the corner of his mouth and hurriedly rejected Thelma's inquiry.
Although Thelma looks like an old witch today, to Bear and Pig Town, she was also a hot girl who had seen the world when she was young.
Thelma must have been very popular when she was young, otherwise she wouldn't have had five husbands die in a row.
Adina is Thelma's daughter. I heard she is very beautiful, but Selma's marriage history is too exaggerated. No one has dared to marry Adina.
In desperation, Thelma asked her to leave the town, seemingly planning to ask her to go out and find a husband. No one in the town knew the specific situation. They only knew that she had not been able to do so so far.
Mu Hua was not sure whether Thelma's daughter was beautiful or not, but the name Atina was a homophone of Athena.
Including the name Icarus, in this world, such names are usually given by witches when they give up their original lives and change their names.
Selma obviously gave her daughter a witch's name. Thinking about the five old father-in-laws who couldn't tell whether they would go to hell or go to heaven, Mu Hua was also a little scared of Adina.
"Tsk, you coward." Seeing Mu Hua's expression that she was worried that she might misunderstand, Thelma clicked her tongue.
"I sell this in the store. Well, I should be able to make a counter here for you. Do you want to get some potions and put them here?" She looked disgusted, but Selma's tone was much calmer than before. .
"Forget it, there are many aspects of potions that are hard to tell. Do you have the qualifications to sell potions? I don't want to cause trouble for you." Mu Hua shook his head.
"I am an old woman, what trouble can I get into? Who can catch me if I sell some physical strength potions, soul potions, etc.?" Thelma is quite tough, and her unruly attitude should not be too dignified.
Some people like to label the common people with words such as kindness, honesty, and simplicity, mostly because they want the common people to have this kind of personality.
But how can a person be born with a certain character just because of their identity?
Perhaps being "diao" is the character that has always been with the people, and their level of being unruly is directly related to the comfort level of their lives.
That is to say, poor mountains and harsh waters bring out unruly people. The worse the comfort level of life, the more unruly people become.
Of course, except for those who believe that people should be simple and kind, and thus put their lives in a ditch.
"No, I don't have time to do that." Mu Hua spread his hands.
Thelma glanced at Mu Hua with disdain, found a wooden box covered with silk cloth, and put away the whole mandrake plant. She didn't say anything more about helping him sell potions.
In the early days, Mu Hua would buy potion materials and prepare potion formulas, but as his magic improved, Mu Hua had less time to refine potions.
The effects of most mid- and low-level potions can actually be achieved through magic. However, the materials for those potions with magical effects are both expensive and difficult to buy.
Mu Hua wanted to challenge alchemy, but the main material needed to refine the magic stone was the magic core magic stone. For the time being, he just threw those things directly into the Fenyuan furnace. Now using them to burn alchemy would make Mu Hua feel distressed.
Expecting to make a comeback through alchemy? Oh, when he gets the magic stone, the materials he consumes will probably be enough for him to save a basket of hundred-refined secret stones.
Nowadays, the only magic potion that Mu Hua can use is the potion of spiritual vision. He has not yet succeeded in refining the potion of life.
Unless he can get special potion materials, such as getting some blood from his students, he will still brush up on the formula of the life potion.
Life potions, youth potions, strengthening potions without side effects, and even jump potions that can increase lifespan. Magic potions are not useless, but the main materials for making these potions have long been stolen by genuine alchemists.
As for those potions that can be mass-produced by the outside world, Mu Hua will make some as emergency reserves. At most, he will keep some in the hotel to provide some convenience services for the hotel.
Mu Hua does not need certification to sell potions. If there is a quality problem with the potions, the Night Hunters can just come to pick them up.
Mu Hua chatted with Thelma. Two vampires in the store brought some magic materials to the counter to check out, and asked Thelma to get some magic materials that would not be left outside.
When they asked about the price of Mandela whole plant, Thelma refused without much communication. The two glanced at Mu Hua and left the store.
Whole mandrakes are not considered valuable, as they make a soul-damaging noise when dug, their main problem is that they are difficult to harvest.
The places where this herb can be used are often not very 'kind', such as curse potions, refining corpse demons, etc.
"Mu, I smell teasing on them, and I don't like them very much." The two left the store, and Thelma revealed the reason why she didn't want to sell their mandrakes.
"Can you smell this?" Mu Hua was surprised.
"A woman's intuition," Thelma said.
"Female? Selma, you... are really brave." Mu Hua looked at the age spots on Selma's face with a strange expression.
"Damn! Is there anything else? Show me the store if you have nothing to do. I'll make an apple pie." Thelma's old face turned red, somewhat frustrated.
