Dawn of the Grey Tower

Chapter 79: Curfew

I bought some less conspicuous clothes in the street shop, although the mage is very wealthy, but for the sake of low-key, including Jack, the few people choose to change the laundry is some second-hand goods with obvious signs of repair or pass Repaired defective products. Looking at the companion who was happy to hold these clothes, the cheese was actually very disappointing, but when the mage proposed to buy some less conspicuous new clothes, he was rejected by the party.

"Those clothes with bright colors look too scary." Mona replied to the cheese. For the plain Northlanders, the role of clothes is basically to protect against cold and provide little defense. They don't care about the style and appearance of clothes, as long as they can move easily. In the wild near Longji Mountain, wearing too bright colors, it is easy to expose yourself in the white snow.

In this case, the cheese is not good to say anything, but it may be to compensate them. In the next action, as long as these three people are interested in the things on the roadside stalls, the mage will make a symbolic bargain. Buy it. So when a group of people walked to the front of the hotel, even the female warrior Mona, who had always shown her pride, held all kinds of groceries and snacks in her hands. Pushing on the thick oak door, the cheese stepped into the hotel with the red hammer and black heavy shield emblem. This sign indicates that the store is an industry operated by the hammer family, and it is also the entire hammer The most secure store in the collar. The room price of a hotel for this night will not be cheap. According to the price on the wooden board behind the receptionist seen by the cheese, the room here is at least one third more expensive than the ordinary hotel seen before.

The hotel ’s waiters naturally noticed the four cheeses. At this time, Mona had finished the dress up. So from the appearance, three of the four-person team were dressed as poor mercenaries. Judging by the experience of the waitress for many years, such people will not stay here overnight. So if these people are n’t muddy buns who just entered the city and ca n’t figure out the situation, then the one who will pay for it must be the one in gray robes. Sure enough, while the other three were still looking at various weapons and beast specimens hanging in the hotel lobby, the cheese had already walked to the counter. The mage silently took a purse from his robe and threw it on the counter.

"Four rooms, help me find four more horses." The simple blinding method made it difficult for the waiter to see the face under the shadow of the mage's hood, and the deliberately lowered sound line made the cheese's voice sound more realistic than his actual. Is older.

"Okay, sir. Your room is at the end of the corridor on the second floor. Your horse will be waiting for you in the stable tomorrow morning. May I ask you to prepare dinner for you?" The waiter has completely regarded the cheese at this time. The past businessman or scholar, as for the remaining three, were regarded as the guards he hired. Although the security of the hammerhead has always been good, in order to prevent nomads who come from time to time or robbers pretending to be nomads, it is not surprising that a rich person acting alone can hire several mercenaries as bodyguards.

It ’s just that the cheese needs four rooms as soon as it opens. Generally speaking, the boss who hires mercenaries will not pay for the people he hires. It is covered by the signboard of the Grand Duke Hammer. Bing went to spend the rest of the night in the city himself, and came here to meet again tomorrow, but the subtext of the master's generosity was that he was a generous employer. Such a gold owner will naturally be stammered, and maybe someone who is happy to reward a few copper coins is better than standing here for a day.

Although the obsequious smile of the waiter makes the cheese a little uncomfortable, sometimes showing proper financial resources can save you a lot of unnecessary trouble. The cheese dropped a few copper coins on the counter and said.

"Don't need to prepare dinner for us. It is a rare visit to Iron Fort. Is there any restaurant worth recommending here?" The busy field life in the past has already made the mage have been dissatisfied with the diet for a long time. Now that it has been decided to take a good rest at Iron Fort, it is better to take the opportunity to have a big meal, and places such as restaurants and pubs have always been the best choice for gathering intelligence.

"In the restaurant, I push you to try the grilled meat of the Iron Fort. It is said that the boss learned the skills from the nomads. You know, those **** guys are not good in other aspects, but they are not good at cooking. The beef and mutton has its own uniqueness. The store is not far away, and it is in the second alley on the left hand side when you go out, but if you go now, you should come back soon. Iron Fort has recently imposed a curfew, and it is on the street after sunset Stay is imprisoned! "The waiter reminded diligently.

"Curse curse? Why? I see no bulletin boards posted at the gates of the city?" Although the city curfew is not a big deal, many cities and towns have implemented it. However, there is generally no need to impose a curfew in a city like Iron Fort, and the waiter clearly mentioned that the curfew has only been implemented "recently". Does this mean that there is any trouble in this city?

"You don't know. Isn't this the plague led by Earl of Saron? The lord of the city burned several plague-infected refugees at the gate of the city a few days ago. There will be a lot of mice on the street! "Speaking of this, the waiter stopped vigilantly, looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, and lowered the volume and continued to the cheese.

"Now the city is saying that the injustice of the refugees has turned into these mice, and they are going to seek revenge on the Iron Fort. The master of the city began curfew, and it is said that he is hiring a pharmacist to get rid of these mice. But let me say If those mice are really turned into grievances, it ’s useless to find a pharmacist. It ’s better to find pastors from a few churches. "

Learned the reason for the curfew. Of course, the cheese didn't fully believe the circulation in the mouth of the waiter, but it seems that there will be rat trouble at night here. He thanked the waiter in a low voice, and the master generously dropped a few copper plates to him, and then turned around to join his partner in the hall.

"What's the matter? Why have you been here for so long?" Although I haven't been to such a big city, after all, Elsa also runs a part-time pub in her hometown. The flow of things like accommodation is relatively clear, so she is upset. I wonder why the company has been back for so long ~ www.readwn.com ~ It's nothing. We will talk while we eat later. "Tell other people their respective rooms, let them put their hands down first, and then a few people set off for the barbecue restaurant recommended by the waiter."

Was unexpected to the mage. Although the grill's facade was well decorated and the interior layout was comfortable, there were fewer people eating at the restaurant than he thought. But since he sat down, the cheese had no plans to leave. He casually read almost half of the items on the menu. The mage pulled out a silver coin in the suspicious eyes of the boss, and threw it with the silver coin. In the boss's hands, the suspicious look on the boss's face also turned into ecstasy.

"Come here, this is our own brewed ale, please don't dislike it. In the past few days, because of the curfew, almost no guests patronized in the evening, a few wait a while, I will go to prepare immediately." The boss enthusiastic After placing four oak glasses filled with golden yellow ale on a pedestrian's table, the cheese also had some understanding of the situation in the shop.

"What curfew? What's going on?" Jack asked.

So the cheese drank a gulp of ale and passed on what he had just heard from the waiter to the rest of the people. For such bizarre things, they may not believe it if they are put in peacetime, but after all, several people were still fighting with the ratmen two days ago, and now they hear the mouse again, it is inevitable that the cordon in their hearts will be raised again.

"You said, does this have anything to do with the Ratmen?" Mona whispered.

The mage continued to drink the ale in his glass with a big mouth, then put the empty wine glass on the table and burped casually.

"Regardless of whether it matters, let's take a rest for one night, replenish the supplies as planned tomorrow, and then come back tomorrow night to see what happens."
