I am a hero in online games

Chapter 4 Going Down the Mountain ([-])

After reading the arrest warrant, He Ergou walked outside the city gate.When passing through the huge city gate, He Ergou saw two rows of 12 people standing guard inside, all dressed in armor, holding spears in their hands, with solemn expressions and motionless.In front of this group of soldiers, there was a man wearing short-fitting shorts, an official cap on his head, and a horizontal knife on his waist. He was full of heroic spirit and was talking to someone else.Looking at that man again, he was wearing a loose robe, which seemed to be made of high-quality brocade material, with various patterns on the clothes, elegant and luxurious, although the face was too far away to see clearly, but he could still be seen as the elder of a wealthy family.

"What era is this? Could it be that he was a landlord?" He Ergou thought about it, stopped a man passing by, and asked politely: "My fellow, I just came here, I don't know who are the two over there?"

"You're asking the right person! When you come to Xiangyang, you must know these two people. The one wearing the official hat over there is the court's gold-medal headhunter - Mo Yanhua, and the one talking to him is wearing a purple robe. The old man is the richest man in Xiangyang City——Yue Lan, who is also a well-known supernatural hero in the Central Plains. This Yue hero punishes evil and promotes good, and helps the world, but we are a great benevolent person in Xiangyang!" The fellow spoke eloquently, Looks very enthusiastic.

"The government's headhunter and a martial arts hero, what do they have to say, could it be that the hero committed a crime?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" The man was clearly sullen, "It is rumored that the famous Liang Shang gentleman from the Central Plains slipped to Xiangyang City recently, and Mo Yanhua, who is in charge of the case, has tracked it down all the way, and he may be discussing with Yue Daxia about hunting down the culprits! Speaking of This Yue hero..."

He Ergou hurriedly bid farewell to the eloquent fellow, judging from his attitude towards this person, this Yue Daxia is highly respected and loved by the people.He Ergou thought: "Could it be that he is the decent boss in this game, the master of martial arts?"

Just as he was thinking about it, He Ergou suddenly felt that he had knocked down someone. He hurriedly raised his head and was about to apologize.But the man spoke first: "Master, please give me some money." He Ergou took a closer look and saw that the man was unkempt, his clothes were tattered, he was dirty and smelly, and his mouth was full of broken teeth. When he opened his mouth, he felt like there was black smoke. squirt.

He Ergou lived in Huaxia in the 25th century. At that time, in China, everyone lived in prosperity, lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the society was flourishing. Such people were only seen in various books.He Ergou secretly thought: "Is this the beggar gang disciple in the martial arts novel?"

Although he didn't know whether the disciples of the beggar gang begged for food or just regarded it as a traditional craft, He Ergou took out the silver and handed it to the beggar in front of him. Unexpectedly, the beggar looked down at the silver in his hand, He actually pushed it back: "Do you only have this few money? It's too little, too little!"

He Ergou was so pushed by the beggar that he froze on the spot and thought to himself: "Are all the beggars in the Beggar Clan so rich?"

He Ergou asked cautiously: "Then how much do you need?"

The beggar said leisurely: "Why don't you get ten first?"

"Ten taels?" He Ergou exclaimed.As a high-tech talent in the 25th century, He Ergou also has a good understanding of history. After all, ten taels of silver is already a month's food expenses for ordinary people.

"What?" The old beggar looked at He Ergou with contempt, "I get three taels of silver for one drink! It's only ten taels, it's not a big amount!"

He Ergou was shocked again: "You have to drink three taels of silver for a meal, which can be called squandering. No wonder you are a beggar."

Although the old beggar's request has exceeded the scope of normal help, He Ergou is already quite unhappy, but after all, he is new here and doesn't know much about the rules of this world.Since the old beggar in front of him dared to open his mouth like a lion, he was probably not just begging for food.

He Ergou thought of the stories he had read in books, such people are often some kind of extraterrestrial experts who pretend to be funny to play.

He Ergou thought about this, and his curiosity arose at the moment, so he suppressed his anger and asked: "Then do you know where I can make money? I don't have as much as ten taels. I'll go and earn enough money, and I'll come back to you right away. "

"Oh," the old beggar picked out his ears and said casually, "hunting, mining, fishing, working as a waiter in an inn, working hard for ten days and eight days, ten taels is enough!"

The old beggar paused, and the disdain on his face became more obvious: "You are such a big man, with sound limbs, you can't even earn money?"

He Ergou was taught by this beggar one after another, and he was out of breath for a while, but the higher education he received helped him suppress his temper.

Although He Ergou was furious at the moment, he didn't explode. He planned to see what kind of medicine was sold in the old beggar's gourd, so he said, "I'm ashamed to say, I don't know much about the world, I'll go now."

After leaving the old beggar, He Ergou planned to find some jobs that could make money quickly.

He Ergou walked into an inn and wanted to ask if there was still a shortage of mistresses in the inn, but as soon as he entered the inn, he saw an overturned table and food and drinks all over the floor.Knowing something was wrong, He Ergou hurried to the shopkeeper and asked, "What's the matter?" The shopkeeper replied with a mournful face, "Oh, my master was going to hold a banquet in the store today, but just came a few days ago. He looks like a bandit, he seems to be the old man's enemy, he made a big fuss when he came in, he took the old man away, and even smashed the shop! What is the law of heaven!"

He Ergou was startled, and asked, "Then do you know where the old man was caught?"

"I heard from their discussion that it seems to be going to a broken house outside the city?" The shopkeeper looked at He Ergou, "Little brother, I think you are also a martial arts practitioner, you must go and save my master!"

He Ergou was puzzled and said, "Since you know where it is, why didn't you report it to the authorities?"

"People in the government are slow to do things. By the time they go, the robbers will have already fled! Young man, go and save my master!"

He Ergou nodded, gave up the idea of ​​reporting to the police, and thought to himself: "The safest way now is to go to Junior Sister. If she goes with her, we will definitely be able to rescue him."

But Ling'er didn't know where she was now, and she was not familiar with the place where she lived, and it was impossible to find Ling'er so quickly. After thinking twice, He Ergou decided to go and see the situation first.Although I don't have martial arts, I am a martial artist after all. If I don't want to save him, how can I call him the word "Xia".

So, He Ergou finally agreed: "I'll go right away."

He Ergou left the inn, searched all the way out of the city, and finally saw the ruined temple house that the shopkeeper said in a hidden place with several trees on the outskirts of the city.

He Ergou tiptoed over and peeped in through the dilapidated window, and saw a richly dressed fat old man tied up and thrown in a corner, surrounded by a dozen strong men discussing something.
