Douluo's arrogance
Chapter 7 Buying a Bow
In the early morning, the sky has turned white. As the cockcrow ceases, wisps of green smoke rise from the roofs of each house. Then the villagers come out of the house with tools and start preparing for the day's work.
Today, Zhao Bai rarely got up late. The magnificent morning glow appeared in the east. He opened the window and looked directly at the rising sun. The early morning sunshine was quiet and elegant, making people calm.
He raised his hands and stretched, took a deep breath, and felt a refreshing burst of fresh air. A few birds were chirping crisply on the branches, and there was still dew on the branches and leaves of the trees.
Everything he saw and heard was full of energy.
Open the drawer and take out a dark token from the drawer. In the middle of the token are a sword, a hammer, and a Tyrannosaurus rex, with three patterns. This is the third-level warrant of Wuhun Palace, and it is the appearance of this token that becomes the last straw for Zhao Bai not to join Wuhun Palace, otherwise where would he find three nobles to vouch for him.
This warrant was found in his father's room two years ago. When Zhao Bai found it, it was used as a table footrest. The token he took out was full of dust and had many scratches all over it.
Zhao Bai asked his father where he got this token, and his father replied: "I don't know, he was there when I was a child." Zhao Bai then asked his grandfather and grandma if they were soul masters, and his father answered that they were two soul masters. They all have no soul power. My grandfather went up the mountain and was bitten to death by a tiger. My grandmother was too sad and couldn't survive it and passed away.
It seems that the generation of ancestors has produced powerful soul masters, otherwise this third-level warrant would not have been left until it was picked up by Zhao Bai. You must know that the first two levels of tokens must be returned to Wuhun Temple after completing the soul beast hunting, while the third level tokens of Wuhun Temple can be held for life.
"Dad, Mom, I'm leaving." Zhao Bai kissed his sister's smooth little face hard and carried the baggage packed by his mother.
"Remember to pay attention to safety."
"I know." He waved his hand and got on Ke Shan's carriage to go to Notting City.
"Uncle Ke Shan, can you lend me a few gold coins?" Zhao Bai looked at Ke Shan and said.
"Why are you short of money? I heard my friend praise you that you are the strongest on the construction site and make the most money."
"I have spent almost all the money I earned." Zhao Bai did not hide it, nor did he intend to hide it. "I plan to go to the Soul Hunting Forest alone to hunt for soul rings and upgrade to a soul master."
Ke Shan did not give an answer immediately, and Zhao Bai did not urge him.
This is equivalent to investing in a current level soul master, but what you will receive in the future is the favor of a soul master. But there are also great risks. Just now Zhao Bai said that he can make a profit only if he enters the Soul Hunting Forest alone without anyone's help and kills the soul beasts and returns successfully. If Zhao Bai dies and the investment fails, he will naturally lose money. .
As for going to Zhao's father and Zhao's mother to pay back the money if he loses money, Ke Shan thinks he can't do it. He still adheres to the business principles. What's more, he is investing in Zhao Bai's future, not the future of Zhao Bai's family. Zhao Bai also knew Ke Shan's character through two years of dealings, so he dared to borrow money from him.
"How many years of soul beast are you planning to kill?"
"A hundred-year-old spirit beast." Zhao Bai said firmly. Although Zhao Bai was not sure of killing any hundred-year-old spirit beast, let alone the four-hundred-year-old mandala snake that Tang San killed, he did not have a hundred-year spirit ring. , even if you can become a great soul master at the age of twelve, then what? There is no more! Even if the soul power can keep up, the combat power of the soul ring can no longer keep up, and they are still at the bottom of the soul master class.
Only a hundred-year spirit ring, and it must be a hundred-year spirit ring, can Zhao Bai keep up with the Shrek Seven Devils, or even surpass them. He didn't want to just follow them and walk farther away step by step!
Taking a deep breath, Ke Shan didn't expect this boy to be so courageous despite his young age. The bargaining chip has increased and it has become a favor from a powerful soul master, but the risk has also become higher. There is a high chance that Zhao Bai will die. In the past two years, not only Zhao Bai has been observing Ke Shan, but Ke Shan has also been observing Zhao Bai. He knows that Zhao Bai has always been steady in doing things, so he is sure of it.
"Okay, you guys have the courage to gamble your life, so what can't I dare to do? It's just money, isn't it? How much do you want." Making up his mind, Ke Shan patted his belly and agreed boldly.
"Three gold soul coins."
"No problem, I'll give it to you now." Keshan needed to keep the necessary money for business, and three gold soul coins were the largest amount of money he could afford. Keshan handed it over to him without hesitation, Zhao Bai was very grateful in his heart.
An hour passed and after entering Notting City, Zhao Bai stepped out of the carriage, took out three pieces of clothing from his bag and handed them to Ke Shan.
Zhao's mother packed three pieces of clothing and put them into her bag, but Zhao Bai was going to hunt soul beasts instead of going to work, so he only needed to wear this one piece.
"Can I leave these three pieces of clothing with you? If I die, please help me send them home to my parents." Zhao Bai paused, "One week, starting from now, if I come back within a week, I will be at the city gate, and if I don’t show up within the time limit, you can consider me dead.”
"Okay, I promise you. Remember, life is the most important thing, don't be brave." Ke Shan warned you, I hope you can meet the soul master. It is not easy to bear such a thing as a white-haired person giving a black-haired person.
Zhao Bai did not leave the city immediately, but walked into the city. The center of Notting City was the most prosperous area in Notting City, lined with various shops.
Zhao Bai bought a bottle of snake repellent powder, a bottle of wound medicine, ten kilograms of bacon and noodles, and stuffed them into the bag one by one.
As for drinking water, Zhao Bai has several skin bags specially used to hold water at home. When Zhao Bai goes out, he takes one with him, which is filled with five liters of water.
Standing in front of a weapons store, he weighed the money bag in his hand. Because I need to buy a lot of meat, and also need to buy books to learn about Soul Fighting Continent and martial arts, I don’t have much money left from moving bricks. I only have three Gintama coins left. I just spent two Gintama coins to buy food and medicine. coins, Zhao Bai now only has three gold soul coins and one silver soul coin left in his body that Ke Shan gave him, equivalent to thirty-one silver soul coins.
When you walk into the weapons store, you will find swords, knives, tiger heads and all kinds of weapons, all sorted on the wall for everyone to look at.
Zhao Bai walked to the wall where the bows and arrows were placed and stood there to observe. Zhao Bai also had a bow and arrow at home. He also learned archery and could hit six or seven out of ten arrows.
A clerk saw Zhao Bai standing at the bow and arrow wall with an observing look, and walked over quickly, "Mr., I see that you are very interested in bows and arrows. You must have learned archery. When you came to our store, that was The right choice, our store is the best in the whole street, I recommend this bow and arrow, it is most suitable for your age." After that, he took off a wooden bow.
The store clerk is not surprised to see children coming in to choose weapons. Children from wealthy families in the city often come to buy weapons. Although Zhao Bai was dressed simply and looked like a country boy, the clerk still regarded him as a customer.
"This wooden bow has been adjusted by a professional master. It has excellent accuracy and dexterity. It is definitely your first choice."
Zhao Bai ignored the clerk's bragging and took the wooden bow handed to him. This bow was on the short side, probably because of his young age. Zhao Bai pulled the full moon without much effort, "Is there anything heavier? This bow is too light."
Once again, he filled up the adult bow that the clerk handed over to him. The clerk was a little surprised that he could draw an adult's bow and arrows at this age. Looking at the relaxed look on his face, he was far from trying his best. Could it be that he was born with supernatural power? The clerk thought for a moment and took down the bow and arrow placed at the highest position.
"This is an ox-horn bow, weighing as much as a stone."
In Douluo Continent, everyone has a martial soul. Soul masters do not need weapons, and ordinary people have limited strength, so this horn bow has been placed there for a long time.
A bow and arrow weighing one stone has a draw weight of one hundred and twenty kilograms.
Zhao Bai weighed the bow and arrow in his hand. This was a fine oak bow, about one meter long, wrapped in animal skin, wrapped in silk, and made of beef tendon.
He immediately lowered his waist, stretched out his muscles and bones, and pulled out the bowstring.
Zhao Bai maintained his working posture, sweat oozing from his biceps, and all the muscles and bones aching all over his body.
This is a good way to build up strength. Although I am very tired when practicing boxing, my fists are always in the air. I will need to buy a stronger bow in the future to specifically practice my strength.
"Just this horn bow, how much does it cost?" Zhao Bai put away his strength and the horn bow returned to its original shape.
"As long as you like it, there are three gold coins in total. This bow has been placed on it for a long time. This bow will not be buried even if you think about it." The clerk breathed a sigh of relief. If he still can't satisfy the child, the sign will be destroyed. After smashing it, I can only ask the boss for his three-stone stone-splitting bow.
Three gold coins are too expensive, but Zhao Bai likes this hunting bow very much and doesn't want to give up just yet. "It's too expensive for 2 gold soul coins. I can only give out two gold soul coins. If it doesn't work, I won't buy it." After that, Zhao Bai put down his horn bow and made a gesture to leave.
"Wait a minute, 2 gold soul coins are too few. Otherwise, 2 gold soul coins plus 9 silver soul coins." The clerk tried his best to fight.
"No, it's still too expensive. Two gold soul coins plus one silver soul coin. If it doesn't work, I'll leave immediately."
Finally, after some haggling, the deal was completed with 2 gold soul coins plus 5 silver soul coins, a pot of feather arrows and a stainless steel sword-shaped dagger. Both parties were satisfied with the result.
Zhao Bai carried the horn bow and baggage on his back, patted a pot of feather arrows on his waist, and tied the dagger to his thigh. Zhao Bai now really envied Tang San's Twenty-Four Bridges on a Moonlit Night, not that he was like this The thing weighed more than ten kilograms, which was quite light for Zhao Bai.
The main reason is that it is cumbersome. When you enter the soul hunting forest and encounter a soul beast with a strong desire to attack, will the opponent wait for you to relieve this burden before starting to fight?
Ignoring the call from the clerk behind him to welcome him back, he hired a carriage in the city and handed the driver 5 Gintama coins.
Now Zhao Bai still has 6 silver soul coins in his hand.
