Leisure life with baby in another world

Not long after Xiaozhu left, a man in a black robe and cloak suddenly appeared in Qin's backyard. He squatted down to observe the mysterious medicine seedling carefully, and there seemed to be a few hoarse laughter from his mouth, and then the space was distorted , the figure disappeared immediately.

After the man in the black robe and cloak left, Fox's figure appeared immediately, a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes, he grabbed the wide cuff with his fingers, took a look at the medicine seedling, then turned and left.

While Xiaozhu and the others were eating happily, an old man came to the adventure union step by step with a trembling body. He coughed a few times from time to time, which made people worry that he would collapse in the next moment.

"Hao Bo, why did you come here?" A surprised male voice sounded not far from the old man, and a burly young man walked quickly to the old man to support him.

"Who is it?" The old man seemed a little dizzy, raised his head and tried to squint his eyes, as if he wanted to see the man in front of him clearly.

"I'm Xiao Xu, and Xiao Kai, why did he let you come to this kind of place alone?" Xiao Xu had a puzzled expression on his face. Before he left home, Xiao Kai was famously filial. His old father came to the adventure guild alone, and he remembered that the old man was a good farmer before he left, but why the old man looked like he was dying in just a few years, what is going on.

"Xiao Xu, Xiao Kai... something happened to Xiao Kai!" The old man held Xiao Xu's hand tightly, tears streaming down his face, his face was full of sadness and heartache.

"How come, what's going on?" Xiao Xu helped the old man to sit down on the table and chair provided by the adventure union.

"It's a long story. Not long ago, there were more and more mercenaries in the small town, and many people who opened shops got rich. Xiao Kai thought that he would not make it too hard, so he wanted to go to other places to buy goods with those merchants. I also went to a small town to set up a stall to earn some money, but who would have thought that I would meet bandits on the road, and one of those people asked one of them to bring a letter back saying that if you don’t have ten taels of gold, you don’t want anyone, so I want to pass on the family heirloom Bei is here to see if I can get some money back to redeem Xiaokai." The old man's face was full of sadness.

"It's unreasonable, Haobo, you tell me where the gangster is, the people in our adventure group are quite capable, why don't I go and rescue Xiao Kai!" Xiao Xu's face was full of anger.

"No, don't, I heard that those gangsters are all fighters above the fifth rank, how can I let you take risks, and even though they are heirlooms, they are useless to me, it is better to hand them over to the adventure union. You can exchange some money to redeem Xiaokai, and you may get some benefits." The old man shook his head, sighed, then stood up and walked towards the counter.

Xiao Xu saw that the old man seemed to have made up his mind, so he couldn't say anything, so he had to help the old man to go to the counter. At this time, many people noticed the conversation between the old man and Xiao Xu, and followed behind the old man. What are so-called heirlooms?

With trembling hands, Haobo took out something wrapped in a blue coarse cloth from his pocket, and he slowly put the thing on the counter, with reluctance and determination in his eyes, making it easy to see how big the old man's bet was. It was decided to take out this heirloom in exchange for the money to redeem his son.

Haobo's hands felt a little skinny, the skin on his hands was wrinkled, and there were even some yellow-brown spots. At this moment, his hands were trembling and slightly lifting the coarse cloth, but inside was a flat box. Light fragrance.

"Oh my god, it's actually red sandalwood. Judging by the texture, it must be thousands of years old!" A cry of surprise attracted everyone's attention to the box. The thousand-year-old rosewood alone is worth tens of thousands of gold. How much is it worth? Greedy desires flashed in the eyes of many people in the crowd. At this moment, they wished they could snatch the box that the old man put on the counter and run away.

There was also a hint of surprise in Xiao Xu's eyes. He had never heard the old man or his childhood playmate Xiao Kai mention that there was such a thing hidden in the house, but seeing the old man's reluctance, Xiao Xu also understood a little. He still understands the truth of Bi Qi's crime. I am afraid that the old man has never told Xiao Kai about it. Otherwise, with Xiao Kai's temper, how could he not mention it? If it is not the current situation, the old man may hide this secret until his death. Tell Xiao Kai.

The old man swung the lock on the front of the box lightly. This kind of lock does not have any keyholes, but is made of rotatable iron blocks. The old man's hand turned the lock quickly, and he couldn't see the previous trembling at a glance. At this time, his hands were lighter and quicker than any thief's movements. Everyone felt a flash in front of their eyes, and the lock immediately changed into another shape. At this time, the old man broke the lock lightly, and the lock opened immediately. If it wasn't for the old man's whitish His complexion and trembling hands made it clear that these actions were not without side effects. I am afraid that at this time some people would wonder if the old man was really as weak as he had shown before.

"Xiao...Xiao Xu, open...the box...open it!" Hao Bo's voice became even hoarse, and he even gasped for breath in the middle.

Seeing Haobo's trembling hands, Xiao Xu understood that the old man probably didn't even have the strength to open the box at this moment, so he didn't shirk, let the box open, hesitated for a moment, and took out a rolled-up monster skin from the box.

At this time, the teller in front of the counter was also staring at the roll of monster skin, and there were urgent footsteps behind him. It seemed that someone had already passed the matter to the head of the adventure guild. At this time, the person in charge eagerly pulled Open the teller and stand in front of the old man.

"It's the skin of the holy tiger!" The person in charge exclaimed, and then eagerly snatched the beast skin from Xiao Xu's hand.

Xiao Xu obviously wanted to avoid those hands, but he watched helplessly as the person in charge grabbed the monster skin and opened it, and a treasure map with clear lines appeared in front of the person in charge. Some parts of the leather are damaged, and the person in charge will really think that this is a new painting.

"Old man, I'm afraid we can't afford your heirloom!" The person in charge took a deep look at the treasure map, and then put the things back into the old man's hands.

"How come, even the adventure guild can't afford it, what is this thing?" The mercenaries around began to whisper.

"My lord, I don't ask too much, just give me ten taels of gold, and I'll sell you this treasure map, please, I'll just wait for him to save my son." The old man had tears in his eyes and his voice was hoarse It was nearly silent.

"Old man, I'll give you ten taels of gold and you can sell it to me!" A male voice sounded from the crowd.

"Old man, sell us Tigers, I'll give you 100 taels of gold." As if the male voice reminded others, everyone began to shout the price.

Haobo shook his head, ignored the shouting mercenaries, and just pushed the treasure map to the person in charge, "My lord, this treasure map was actually only given to our clan by a capable person. It has been thousands of years. Back then Our prosperous family is only left with me, an old man, and my dependent son. If my son dies, then I will not be able to fulfill the entrustment of that capable man. Instead of doing this, it is better to make the treasure map public. It's none of our business to get that, my lord, I just ask you to give me ten taels of gold, please."

Haobo was full of tears at the end, with guilt and helplessness in his eyes for not being able to complete the task entrusted by the capable person, as well as deep pleading.

After hearing what the old man said, the person in charge didn't hesitate anymore, took the treasure map, took out 100 taels of gold and a green leaf-shaped token from the counter, put them in the box and handed them to the old man, "Old man, the treasure map is priceless, You take this rosewood box back, and this gold is a small favor of our adventure guild. If there is any embarrassment in the future, you can come with this token. As long as we can help, we will help you. help."

Haobo carefully hugged the box, nodded his head desperately, kept saying thank you, and wanted to turn around to say goodbye, but when he turned around, he was surrounded by people around him, and many people even greedily looked at the box in Haobo's arms. The box, whether it is the millennium red sandalwood box worth tens of thousands of gold or the tokens and gold in that box, are all coveted.

"Today, this old man is protected by our Adventure Guild. If anyone has any wrong thoughts or does something that shouldn't be done, then wait for the Adventure Guild to chase him down." The voice of the person in charge resounded throughout the guild. , Just this action made people alert, and many people quickly calmed down their thoughts. You must know that it is not something ordinary warriors can do to transmit the sound so far, even as if it is in the ear. The person in charge At least rank nine fighters, the head of the adventure union in a small place is actually a rank nine warrior, it seems that the adventure union must not be offended.

With the words of the person in charge, the surrounding mercenaries immediately separated left and right. Xiao Xu nodded slightly to the few mercenaries in the crowd, and then helped the old man to walk towards the door.

After the old man left, the person in charge held up the treasure map and said to everyone: "This map is a treasure map, which is related to the secrets of thousands of years ago. When the adventure guild confirms the appraisal results, it will naturally announce the mission. You can do whatever you want now." .”

After the person in charge finished speaking, he turned around and left. He had to report the matter to the Federation of Trade Unions and let the elders of the trade union come down. It seems to be very true, but what the old man said made him a little strange. In short, this matter must be investigated clearly. Everything is waiting for the elders of the trade union to decide. He, a small person in charge, dare not do unnecessary actions. As for those If mercenaries are smart, they will definitely not look for trouble.
