Gold is Justice

Brad: "There are many grains, grains Togo! Then what are your plans for the future? Do you still want to go to other countries?"

Gu Liduo picked up the food again and took two bites. After thinking for a while, he said, "I don't know either. In short, I will wait for the army to arrive first, and then I will talk. If I can go abroad smoothly, I will leave."

Hearing this, Brad hurried forward and hooked Gu Liduo's shoulders, and said excitedly: "In this case, why don't you just stay and join our guild!"

Gu Liduo was taken aback: "Join your guild?"

Brad nodded vigorously, turned to Airl and said, "President, do you think it's okay? Don't you often say that our guild is short of manpower? Guli Togo looks very strong!"

Airl frowned slightly, dissatisfied with the big man for exposing the guild's cards so easily.Even if there is a shortage of people, how can you tell your potential recruits "I need you very much, please join our guild as soon as possible"?

But this kind of dissatisfaction was only for a moment, and then he changed into a smiling face and said: "If you want to join our guild...Mr. Gu Liduo, I will not force anyone. Members of our guild are voluntary. What's your opinion? Although we are slowly getting ready for war, everything is moving towards normal development."

Gu Liduo thought for a while, nodded and said, "If President Ai Luo doesn't mind, I am willing to join your guild and do my part."

Airl smiled, with a very calm expression on his face.

On the other side, Brad was already so excited that he hooked Gu Liduo's shoulders and yelled happily.

Coco and Cream at the side just showed smiles on their faces, raised their cups, and toasted the new member.

After accepting the welcome from all the members, Gu Liduo looked at Ai Luo sincerely, and raised the cup in his hand: "Thank you President Ai Luo for your appreciation. This cup is my respect to you."

Ai Luo also raised his cup, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, we will all be comrades-in-arms in the guild from now on. I explained in advance that in my guild, I will choose a room on the second floor by myself. You need to clean it by yourself. If you lack furniture and the like, go to other vacant rooms to see if there are any substitutes. At school, every night I or the vice president (pointing to the sleeping cat over there) will teach basic knowledge such as writing, mathematics, etc. If you need it, you can also come to learn."

Gu Liduo smiled: "Thank you, President, I still know how to read and write. By the way, President, after joining Song of the Mermaid, I want to know more about the President. Um... from the President Judging from his physique, the president should not be a fighter. Is that a speed stalker?"

Ai Luo paused for a while at this question, and Cream next to him laughed, picked up a piece of bread, took a bite and said, "What kind of stalker, the president can't sneak, can't steal, and can't even hold a sword." .”

Gu Liduo was a little surprised, and quickly said: "Oh! Then the president is a fighter? He used the power of his fists to create this guild? This is also very powerful! Sorry, the president is relatively short and his clothes are looser. So I didn't see such a powerful explosive power hidden in this small body! How do you usually exercise? How about finding some time for us to compare muscles together?"

Ai Luo's face was full of embarrassment. After all, when recruiting members before, these guys were all tamed by him before joining, and they didn't care about these issues.But the question asked by Gu Liduo... is precisely the question that a new member is most interested in.

But before Arrow hadn't figured out how to answer, Brad over there said "enthusiastically" again: "No, no, our president doesn't know how to use weapons or fight. His strength is very strong." Small ones, sometimes small ones are like girls, hahaha."

I want you to talk more!

Arrow stared at Brad, thinking quickly about how to get out of this predicament.At the very least, this member must not be allowed to look down upon himself as the president!

"So...you are a magician?" Gu Liduo's eyes were full of respect, "I heard from Brad before that President, you graduated from the Old Tengshu Academy. Could it be...you graduated from the Old Tengshu Academy?" The magic department of the academy? That's really amazing!"

Brad was still laughing and was about to speak, but Arrow immediately reached out and hammered his palm hard.

The big man was in pain, and turned to look at his president suspiciously.

But before Ai Luo wanted to say something, Ke Ke on the other side said directly: "No, the president brother is not a magician either. The president brother graduated from the economics department of Lao Tengshu College, no He can fight and can't do magic. However, in my eyes, the president is the most powerful one! The president knows a lot of things that we don't know, and he can teach us a lot, so in my eyes, the president's brother It is the most powerful!"

Before, Airl once told the members of his guild that he hoped that the members would live like family members.

But now, he began to regret giving them this definition.

Yes!That's right!After these guys joined Song of the Mermaid, they all knew that the strength of their president was weak, and they also knew that any one of them could beat their president to the ground at any time if they really wanted to!

But they respect themselves so much now, precisely because in their hearts, they have absolute respect and status as the president.

This does not come from strength, but from emotional respect.

That's why they respectfully call themselves president, and they feel afraid when they are angry with themselves, an ordinary person who has no power at all.

However, without fully establishing emotional respect, what does it mean after letting new members know that their president is a scum that can fall at the first touch?

It means the lack of status, which means ineffective control!Especially when someone has just joined, and they directly show their hearts, showing the weakest side of their guild leader...

There are a lot of grains in this one, and it takes a lot of effort to carry it well.

When Ai Luo was thinking about this, Gu Liduo looked at Ai Luo with an unpredictable expression.

Arrow knew what he was thinking, but he couldn't help it now.After coughing slightly, the president of Mermaid Song said with a smile: "From now on, we will be members of a guild. Get up early tomorrow, and I will assign you a work task. So today... um, There will be no class tonight, everyone have a good rest, that's it, let's go."

Everyone didn't know why they made their president unhappy, and they looked at each other, a little at a loss.

After Airl left and went up to the second floor, Gu Li Duo smiled, got up and picked up his own dishes——

"Then... shall we clean up?"

——1301年10月12日，伙食费：-6铜3铁，杂物委托：6铜7铁，矿洞合作委托：5金，结余：95金2银8铜（赃款：40金7银7铜）——

Chapter 79 Did you hear that?

"Now, we must remain vigilant. As I said before, we adventurers will never take risks. Before entering the mine, everyone checks whether their equipment is complete and whether there is any abnormality or discomfort in the body The feeling. Whether you have enough food and water, you must be sure."

The next morning, before the mine.

Arrow took it very seriously to tell everyone to dispose of their belongings.

Coco, Brad, Buffy, and Cream also checked their equipment very carefully, making sure that everyone was armed with weapons, their physical condition was adjusted to the best condition, and they had sufficient water and food.

Everyone got up very early today, in order to be able to arrive at the gold mine in the morning, try to be able to go back and forth on the same day, and avoid the embarrassment of staying overnight.

Airl watched everyone checking the equipment, and nodded with satisfaction.But then, his eyes fell on Gu Liduo who didn't seem to be moving much. "There are a lot of grains, have you prepared all the equipment? There is also food and drinking water."

The bard smiled and said: "I have brought everything I should. My most important partner is this lute. As long as I have this lute, I won't have any problems even if I wander the world. The problem."

As he said that, he took out his guild nameplate from his pocket, looked at the iron plate with the mermaid water seal, and then looked at his name and occupation on the back, smiled again, and stuffed it back into his pocket: "Yes, President , are you sure you are holding these therapeutic aerosols alone? Don’t let us carry them?"

Airl glanced into his pocket, where two bottles of therapeutic aerosols lay.

"Ah, let me take it. You may not be able to free your hands to smash the bottle during the battle. But as I observe from behind, there are obviously more things that can be done."

Gu Li nodded his head more, as an acknowledgment of this.

After everyone checked, they stepped into the mine again and gradually went deeper.

With the experience of the previous two times, Song of the Mermaid's mine exploration is a little more familiar.

Cream still held the torch and walked in the front, alert to any danger that appeared.

Only this time, Airl directed everyone not to follow the previous path, but to try to find some other routes to explore in a wider range.

As the temperature inside the mine rose, everyone added water and ate some bread they carried.

After some exploration, Airl has found out some other routes.But unfortunately, even if Airl wanted to stay as far away as possible from those roads with strange scratches and writings, the branch route of the mine ahead always seemed to lead their team into that abyss.Other fork roads either encounter landslides or face sudden cliffs, making it impossible to move forward at all.

After going around for several hours, Song of the Mermaid finally smelled the smell of excrement and urine in the air.

"Phew... there are a lot of grains, and we are about to enter the area of ​​blood bugs, you have to be careful, don't get too far away from us."

Ai Luo reminded, Gu Liduo smiled and nodded, picked up the lute in his hand and plucked it slightly, which was regarded as approval.

After being informed, Airl took out the nasal plugs and sent two to each of them.After everyone had stuffed their noses, he took out a box from his pocket and opened it.The bloody beads in it gave off a stench no less than the stench in the air, but these smells can undoubtedly guarantee everyone's safety along the way.

Covered by the smell of bloody beads, everyone stepped into the area of ​​bloody worms again.Airl signaled to the crowd to pick some fat blood worms from the ground and put them into cloth bags, tied them up and hung them on their waists, and continued to move forward.

No matter how many times, the feeling of such dense worms wriggling still makes Airl a little nervous.

Fortunately, under the cover of the smell, those blood bugs seemed to no longer attack the torches in everyone's hands.

The area of ​​blood worms passed through quickly, and the temperature in the air began to drop gradually. The smell of damp came over the face, as if it was a lake full of water vapor not long ago.

Arrow knew that this also meant that everyone was about to enter the territory of those corpse eaters.

He closed the bloody bead, removed the smell and put it in his arms.Holding your breath, command the team to move forward slowly...

walking... walking... walking...

Those corpse-eaters had no vision, and Arrow could light a torch as much as he wanted.Although the torches in the team brightly illuminated the entire tunnel, the president was still worried and looked around vigilantly, especially on the ceiling, for fear that something was appearing on top of his forehead right now.

keep walking...going...going...

The surrounding walls became more and more humid, and the temperature that had only become cooler gradually began to feel a little chilly.

The mine also began to become narrower and narrower, from allowing two people to stand side by side, to even walking alone had to turn slightly sideways.

but……

What's going on with this humidity and coldness?

puff-

Sudden!The torch at the front of the team suddenly went out!The sudden extinction of this light made Airl's spirit tremble!

"What's going on? Are there enemies?!"

He asked a question, but found that his voice was repeatedly beating in this empty cave, and the echo spread far away. It seemed that there was still a long, long way ahead of this cave, and there was no end in sight.

But soon, he got a response from Cream in front: "It's okay, I didn't notice that my torch burned out, so I let go of it because it was so hot."

call……

Airl clutched her chest and began to laugh at herself for worrying.

but……

The torches were burned out, but the corpse eaters from last time still did not appear.

How is this going?Don't these corpse eaters live near the blood bugs?In other words, blood worms are not the only food for these corpse eaters?

Arrow regained his composure, and subconsciously touched the pocket containing the therapeutic aerosol.

He raised his head, only to see that the cave was so narrow that he could already reach out and touch the ceiling.If you encounter those corpse eaters attacking from front to back in this kind of place, the danger will be great.

However, in such a good ambush location, those corpse eaters still haven't appeared...

"stop!"

Cream stopped the team and squatted down to check.

Ai Luo who was behind asked, "What's going on?"

Cream in front of him thought for a while and said, "I found a human bone. Well... it's only half an arm, and it's been gnawed. The problem is... this arm is very fresh, it doesn't look like it was hundreds of years ago. It's left here."

Without Cream going into detail, Arrow of course understood what this meant.

Recently, the mayor of Round Cheese has not heard anyone missing from Pelican Town, and there is nothing unusual in the nearby towns.In other words, it is very likely that this poor man entered the mine from other places...or, in other words, was dragged in from other entrances and exits by something.

Airl exhaled, and said slowly: "Keep vigilant, we are in good condition now, we are not tired, and we can continue to explore. We have observed carefully along the way, and we have not seen any other branches of this passage, so it is best Or look ahead."

Cream nodded and continued to lead the team forward.

However, that hand was like a guide, the more he walked, the weirder everything in front of him became.

All sorts of graffiti started to appear on the damp walls once again.However, unlike the previous weird characters that seemed to be carved with nails, these pictures have a very regular sense of distortion.
