Three Philosophical Questions for Travelers

Dreyer succinctly explained the plan, and after hearing the plan, Yesko laughed from ear to ear and said, "Okay! I'll listen to you, and when will you start planning?"

"Do it this afternoon!"

Immediately, the three of them acted separately according to the previous plan. Yesko went to watch next to the casino and listened to Delaire's signal to act; then Delaire called Sariva, took out the prepared things, and said: " You drank this medicine."

"What's this for?"

"It leaves you unconscious an hour later, foaming at the mouth, looking poisoned, but after three hours you're back to normal, nothing at all," Delair said.

"Is this... safe?"

"Safe, this is the prescription I learned from the authentic forest witch." Sister Gerrit should be considered a serious witch, right? "So you can eat with confidence!"

"But... forest witches are all witches who brew poison. I heard that they are lewd and evil. I won't take their medicine!"

"Hey, you are such a troublesome person. You have to drink today. We will make a fortune together after you drink the medicine. If you don't drink—do you remember what you did? If I expose it... ...Heh, think about the consequences for yourself."

Sariwa's face darkened suddenly, and he said, "You...you will be unlucky if you stab it out!"

"I won't be unlucky, I have plenty of ways to get out - if you don't believe me, you can try." Dreyer said with a sneer.Now he has figured out the tempers of the two "partners". Among them, Sariva is honest and cowardly, and Jesko is cunning and suspicious. Dreyer has seen these two people a lot. People eat to death.

"Okay, brother, I'll trust you once." Sariva muttered in a low voice, and immediately drank the medicinal soup in one gulp. "It's so hard to drink!" He said while clutching his chest, and then coughed.

After drinking the medicine, Delaire took Sariva to the "Night God's Blessing" gambling house, while Yesko took time to guard the door, preparing to meet them in an hour.

The casino is still very lively, dealers are dealing cards, gamblers are squandering gold, laughing and shouting one after another, the air is filled with the smell of wine and sweat.Dreyer and Sariva asked for a glass of wine, and Dreyer sighed while drinking: "This wine is very inferior. A few copper coins can buy a big bag outside, but here it is a silver coin for a glass, but it is still worthless." Some people come to buy it. Now there are hundreds of gamblers, and almost everyone has a glass in front of them, and the income from alcohol is only a small part of the income of the casino. Brother, think about it, how much money does this casino make?"

When Sariva heard this, his face became serious, and Dreyer saw a sense of loneliness in his brow.Sariva shook the glass of beer, and the cloudy liquor deteriorated in the shaking, and the impurities swirled.

"Yeah, it's very profitable," he sighed, "And let me tell you, brother, this wine can be sold for up to five copper horns, and five copper horns is enough to make a profit. I used to run a winery I'm very clear about the wine." He took a sip of the wine, then spit it out quietly, and cursed: "Damn, what kind of rotten thing is this? When I opened the wine shop, the red wine that came out can be taken Sacrificing to the Night God! That is the real wine, worthy of the good wine in the wine city!"

Delaire asked, "Do you still want to open a wine shop?"

"Of course!" He smiled wryly, "It's a pity that I have no money. If God opens his eyes and gives me a sum of money, I will definitely open the largest wine shop in the wine city." After saying this, Sariva's His body shook suddenly, and Dreyer knew that the effect of the medicine had taken effect, so he whispered, "Let's go."

After saying this, Sariwa fell headlong.

Deceitful de Lisle, [-]

Deceitful de Lisle, [-]

Dreyer was already prepared. He first watched Sariva fall to the ground, stunned for half a second, and then shouted: "Hey! What's the matter?" He knelt next to Sariva and hugged him in his arms , Shouted loudly: "Hey! My dear brother! What's the matter?" He stretched his voice and pulled his neck, "Quick-come-people-na-! Out-people-death - Slight -!"

This time, the tavern was full of excitement. Many people put down their gadgets and ran over to see what was happening when they heard about the "dead man".The security guard rushed up and asked, "What's the matter? What's going on?"

Dreyer sniffled, hugged Sariva and started crying, crying and shouting: "How the hell do I know? My brother poured down after drinking your wine, you black shop, what are you selling Broken wine?"

Two security guards, one went in and called the boss, and the one outside coped with the situation, saying, "He... isn't he drunk?"

Dreyer jumped up and grabbed the man by the collar, and shouted with wide eyes: "Drunk? Are you blind? Can you foam when you're drunk? Go call the doctor and call out the boss!" "

The bartender hurriedly ran to call the doctor. At this time, the fat boss also ran out from behind. He trotted all the way, his body fat and trembling: "What's the matter, what's the matter?"

In order to perform the trick for real, Delaire immediately lost his temper. He picked up a glass of wine on the table and threw it at the boss, shouting with red eyes: "You wicked boss, you sold poisoned wine to harm my brother. You will be punished!" He picked up a glass bottle and shouted, "If something happens to my brother today, I will definitely kill you!"

The boss's fat face was wrinkled into a ball, and the security guards next to him didn't dare to step forward and watched one by one.

Dreyer has already seen it: the bartenders in this casino are a group of bullies who are afraid of toughness. They can frighten honest people, but when they meet such desperate people, they will be scared.So the more realistic he acted, the less the bartenders dared to act rashly.

The boss pondered for a while, and said: "Let me take a look." He leaned over, glanced at Sariva on the ground, and immediately shouted: "I think this person is pretending!" The boss said Then he reached into his bosom with his hand, and took out a shiny thing. Dreyer took a closer look, and it was a needle.

not good!As he said that, he was about to go up to grab the needle, but the boss had already poked it down, and this time it just stuck in the skin of his face, and the needle pierced deeply, piercing the cheek.Delaire yelled in horror, but after waiting for several seconds, Sariwa didn't move at all, and then the boss pulled out the needle with a surprised face, and murmured: "This..."

Looking at the drowsy Sariva, Dreyer couldn't help but think: Sister Gerrit's medicine is really genuine.

The crowd was all amazed, and Dreyer couldn't watch at the moment. He went up and started fighting with the boss. While fighting, he shouted: "You want to kill my brother! You want to kill me! You black-hearted boss !"

My boss was being beaten, and the security guards couldn't watch at the moment, so Dreyer fought with those security guards.The two security guards in the gambling house were tall and burly, and Delaire couldn't beat them, but now he had to fight if he couldn't beat them. For a while, the casino was in chaos, the table was overturned, the chair fell, and Delaire was facing Whoever smashes a glass bottle.However, on the surface he was ferocious, but in his heart he secretly groaned—Is it time for Yesko to arrive?If you don't come again, it will be broken!

At this time, a security guard threw a stick on Dreyer's back. Dreyer screamed in pain and fell to the ground. He wanted to fight back, but at this moment, he had a flash of inspiration and let out a scream , rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.Then a person with a good deed next to him shouted: "He was killed! Another one died!"

Dreyer lay on the ground with his eyes closed, not knowing what happened, so he heard the boss shout: "Don't fight, stop!" Then he felt someone touch his pulse, and immediately heard the boss say: "It's not dead!" , just fainted."

At this time, there was a shout at the door, and then Dreyer heard hurried footsteps, and felt a large group of people broke in, and one of them shouted: "Stop! Don't fight!"

Dreyer opened his eyes quietly and saw Yesko coming with the town guard.

It was done, he thought to himself, and all that remained was the theater.

They had communicated before, and Yesko knew what to do.Seeing Yesko rushing up, he knelt down next to the two people on the ground, crying: "Oh! I have a brother! I have a brother! What's wrong with you two? Wake up! Ah, it's fine this morning, how come..." He shook Dreyer vigorously, and Dreyer was dazed by the shaking, so he slowly opened his eyes and said, "Oh... this is... ..." He pretended to be dazed, pretending to be knocked out, "I, you..."

"My dear brother! You're awake!" Jesko hurriedly shouted, "Who hit you? What's going on?"

Dreyer took a deep breath, pointed at the boss, and said, "He!"

Yesko also had realistic acting skills. When he heard this, his eyes turned red, and he rushed forward to fight the boss desperately while swearing.The guards stopped him quickly, and the leader stepped up and said, "Everyone be quiet!"

It was a woman's voice, and Dreyer looked towards the man.I saw that it was a tall and straight northern woman, she was wearing a tight leather armor and a black hood with a bat pattern, and her hand with an iron glove was pressed on the hilt of her sword.

The woman's accent was also northern, which convinced Dreyer that she was a northern woman.

A northern woman?Female swordsman?He continued to look at the man.

This woman looks to be in her 20s. Judging from the rough skin and the rust on the armor, she should be a person who has been active outside for a long time, and she should have a lot of combat experience; however, she is by no means a wild woman from a poor family. , because the daughters of poor families do not have enough food and clothing, they are malnourished, and their development is not good. This kind of childhood sickness will continue into adulthood, resulting in short stature and atrophy of facial features, which is the so-called "not growing".But this woman is not. She must have been born in a wealthy family when she was young. She is no less tall than an ordinary man, and her body is also very strong, especially her facial features - her facial features are coordinated and correct, and she even has a faint aristocratic air.

This is strange, Dreyer thought to himself, can such a woman be born in the Rotten Flesh?

"I'm the captain of the rotten meat beach, Magnolia." She spoke with a northern accent, and an accent from the Cold Spring area, with a tongue-twisting sound at the end, which sounds a little funny.Some people were laughing, and some were muttering, so the woman struck the shoulder pole with a sword, and the pole was split into two with a "click", and people suddenly exclaimed.

"I said be quiet." She said and slowly retracted the sword. Only then did Dreyer realize that he hadn't seen how she pulled the sword out just now.

Kidnapping Dreyer, three

Kidnapping Dreyer, three

Good skill, good sword—but the sword is better than skill.Dreyer stared at the sword and thought to himself: That's Cold Spring Steel, and the accent is from there too, this woman must be from Cold Spring.

Then the man named Magnolia ordered his men to carry the unconscious Sariva away, first to the doctor.Then she called both Delaire and the casino owner for questioning.The spectators were dispersed to the periphery by the soldiers, but there were more people watching the fun than at the beginning, and there were people inside and outside the house.

The more people come, the better, Delair thought, I'm going to ruin this casino once and for all.

Then Magnolia asked them both, "What's your name?"

"Hans," said the boss.

Dreyer said: "Dreyer Hansrock."

"You two tell me what happened, you go first." She asked the boss to speak first.

The boss opened his mouth just to cry for injustice, and then shouted with pain on his face: "Master Captain, these guys are bastards who blackmail people! They came to me and pretended to be dead, and even smashed up my shop just to blackmail me. Look at them! People, how well do they cooperate? Isn’t this a premeditated blackmail? One fell, one made trouble, and the other called someone, this... please bring them to justice!”

Then it was Dreyer's turn to speak, and what Dreyer said was also very simple, that is, there was something wrong with the wine in the store, and he drank his brother to death.But in terms of eloquence and debate, Dreyer is much higher than that boss.

"The three of us came together. Halfway through, my brother got drunk and was poisoned, and then the boss not only didn't save people, but even murdered them. So my brother—" he pointed at Yesko, "went to call the guards Captain, this gambling house is a black shop. My brother drank and foamed here. Can you tell me if this is their responsibility? I asked the boss what happened, but the boss stabbed my brother with a needle , Said he was acting—you are asking the guests of the casino to judge!" Delair knew how to incite public opinion when he was promoting Haven in Mustang Town, so he raised his arms and said, "You are too Those of you who drink this wine, are you not afraid to drink yourself to death? I see, let the boss move out all the things in his back kitchen today, put them in the sun to dry, and let everyone know. Let's spend one What the hell is wine bought with silver coins! Isn't it?"

Yesko was the first to shout: "Yes!" Then some people joined in, and then many people who bought wine shouted, saying that he should disclose the kitchen.The boss's face was dripping with sweat. He stammered and said that the back kitchen is an important place, and ordinary people can't go in; he also said that all the ingredients he used were clean, and the wine was good.Yet the more he said it, the more demanding it became.Later, the captain of the police couldn't stand it any longer. In order to appease the public anger, he had no choice but to send someone to search.Dreyer said at this time: "I'll help." He took advantage of the chaos and sneaked into the back kitchen.

The back kitchen of the gambling house was really dirty. The tables and floors were covered with black oil stains. The kitchen utensils were so dirty that their original colors could not be seen. There was a greasy and choking smell in the room.But this is not enough, the general mess is not enough to hope for the boss's death penalty, Delaire found a wooden barrel containing red wine, and secretly poured some potions into it while no one was prepared.

This thing is enough to destroy this casino.

Then he moved things with the guards, and moved the big wooden barrel out.Shaking all the way, enough wine and potion to mix well.

When Gellite was still there, Dreyer often asked her about herbal medicine—the insidious and cunning Dreyer was very interested in things like poison, and Gellite regarded him as one of his own and taught him Sometimes without reservation.Except for the poison that can kill people, the rest of those weird things taught him a lot.

What he puts in the wine barrel now is an acute laxative.

Then they carried the laxative bucket to the boss and said, "Open it!" Someone opened the lid, but Dreyer took a sniff without looking at it, and said, "This wine stinks." !"

The wine didn't really stink, but it did smell bad.The boss quickly said: "Where is the smell? Nonsense!"

Dreyer said loudly: "I think you will die if you drink this wine! My brother died after drinking this wine, bastard, your own wine, do you dare to drink it yourself?"

The boss was stunned for a moment, and said, "You...I think you must have put something in my wine, I won't drink it, I won't drink it!"

Dreyer shouted: "Okay! You don't even dare to drink your own wine! Are you a guilty conscience?" The people next to him also booed when they heard this, but the female swordsman glared at them, People fell silent.

Magnolia asked the boss, "You dare not drink your own wine?"

The boss took out a silk scarf to wipe the cold sweat off Fatty's face, and said, "My lord, if it were my own wine, I would dare to drink it, but this wine has been touched by him, so I would not dare to drink it—— If you try, let him drink it by himself!"

"You bastard, it's obviously a problem with your wine itself! I'm fucking..." Dreyer gritted his teeth fiercely, and said to Magnolia, "Master Captain! How about this, in order to prove my innocence, I Drinking with this boss, if I really drink to death here, you have to bring this guy to justice!"

The woman looked Dreyer up and down, puzzled.She still can't make up her mind, Dreyer thought. The woman might have a knack for fighting, but she's a rookie for cases.

At this time, Yesko shouted: "Bring him to justice! Yes, bring him to justice!" However, few people echoed him this time.

Dreyer saw that the woman was still unable to make up her mind, so she asked her, "Lord Magnolia, how do you make up your mind?"

Magnolia is obviously not good at dealing with this kind of thing, she pondered for a while, and then said: "Well... well, then you guys try it. If... I mean if, if something goes wrong, I'll take you to the hospital. Then..." She pondered, seemingly still hesitating.

But Dreyer couldn't wait any longer. He scooped up a large glass of wine and drank it down, and the onlookers applauded loudly.Then many people booed and asked the boss to drink together, and someone scooped up a big spoon to let the boss drink, but the boss couldn't stand it anymore, he gave Dreyer a hard look, picked up the wine and drank it.

Delaire laughed out loud, thinking to himself: Today I will fight to the death with you!Immediately, he scooped up another big cup and said, "Cheers!" Then he raised his neck and drank it, and the boss had no choice but to drink it, and it was another big cup.After drinking one cup, there was another cup, Dreyer took a breath, and it was another big cup.Just drank three cups in a row, my stomach was so full, and then I waited for the effect of the medicine to take effect.

Not long after, Dreyer saw that the boss's expression was not right, but he was obviously holding back; at the same time, Dreyer also felt a sore stomach, and there was a violent sound of water inside, as if a toad was croaking in its intestines called.He hurriedly shouted: "Oops! There's something wrong with this wine, I have to go to the bathroom!" He was about to run away, but at this moment the boss bit his head and shouted: "There's nothing wrong with the wine! He's cheating on you, please! Don't believe it! Look, I..." His face turned from white to red, and gradually turned purple, "I'm fine!" He shouted in a distorted voice.

good!You old dog is tough enough!We just finished today!Dreyer also clamped his buttocks and said, "Okay! I won't leave if you don't! I want to see if this wine is real or not!"

The boss had two legs between them, like two tightly bound hams, his whole face was wrinkled in pain, "This, wine, nothing, nothing!" He gritted his teeth and said.

Dreyer was also sweating coldly at this moment, pointing at him and shouting: "Look at your virtue!"

"You, also... are not better, where, where to go!"

The audience started booing. Fighting and drinking are not uncommon in Rotten Meat Beach, but this is the first time I have seen it than holding shit.After a while, the inside and outside of the gambling house were full of people, there were three or four hundred people.

The two of them were still struggling, and Dreyer felt that his stomach was overwhelmed, and his intestines were twisted together; but the fat boss opposite was even more terrible, his face was twisted into his intestines.

At this moment, Yesko suddenly stepped up, pushed the fat boss hard, and shouted:

"Brother, can you do it?"

This is so immoral.

The boss shook his body, and immediately heard a "Pu Chi!", the pants changed color, and then the stench filled the air.The onlookers immediately backed away, screaming.Then the fat man was completely discouraged, screamed, and feces and urine poured out like a bank bursting, the scene is really indescribable.

Dreyer couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed straight into the toilet, squatted on the top of the pit, and started to work.The feeling was indescribable, he quickly took a herb leaf from his arms and put it under his nose, then took another piece and chewed it up, swallowing the juice.Geralte once said this stuff would stop diarrhea—hope it does.

There was chaos outside at the moment, some were laughing, some were scolding, some were throwing up tables and fighting, Delaire heard the police captain shouting loudly to maintain order, Delaire didn’t care so much, he concentrated on squatting in the pit——Zhe Li Sister Te, this medicine is really fucking strong!

After he finished his work and came out, the tavern was already quiet, and the crowd of spectators dispersed quite a bit, leaving only a few idlers chatting and laughing.An old servant was cleaning. The captain of the guard saw him coming out and shouted to him, "Come out, this casino is about to be sealed."

After finishing the work, Delaire returned to the hotel. The next day, Yesko told Delaire that the owner of the gambling house had made such a big scandal that he had no face to continue messing around in this place, and that he would sell the casino and go to other places. Local life, now the casino is looking for someone to take over.

Well, it's done.

In the evening, he went to the medical hall to pick up Sariwa.The effect of Sariva's medicine has all worn off, and he is in good spirits after drinking some water.Then Yesko proposed to go to the tavern for a drink.Yesko was very happy to avenge his severed hand, and took the initiative to treat the guests with money.Everyone ordered a few dishes, ordered some serious beer and red wine, and had a celebration banquet together.Dreyer had diarrhea yesterday and couldn't eat, so he asked the two people to eat and drink.

At this moment, it was raining heavily outside, and he stood by the window, thinking about his next plan.The clouds flashed with lightning, and the golden light illuminated his sinister face, and his aura flashed in his mind like lightning.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, and the rain is pouring like torrential rain. This is a good day for plotting.He suddenly thought of those two escorts—haha, the Little Deer River is about to flood, let me see how you two can go back to the bay!

Author's message:

ps: We will rest for two days tomorrow, and resume twice a day after March

Chapter 26: Isrit has nowhere to go

Chapter 26: Isrit has nowhere to go

It rained heavily.

Thunderstorm clouds come from the north, riding the north wind and carrying cold air.Today's air is very cold, not as hot and humid as in the past.

Zerette said that this is the weather of witches, and she has long been looking forward to the next heavy rain, but Isrit doesn't think so.In the past few days, her body has been very uncomfortable. She is not used to the water and soil, and she is not used to the rough food of the orcs, so she has no appetite, weakness, and nausea.

But despite this, she is still learning and teaching.

She can learn many things from orcs, such as orc language, religion, history, voodoo, hunting techniques, knowledge of jungle warfare, etc... Before marrying Haven, Isrit lacked the opportunity to learn knowledge and Time, which keeps her eager to learn.During these days, she has learned simple orc daily language, learned stories about Heavenly Father, Earth Mother, and ancestor spirits, as well as ancient orc myths, the history of orc division, etc...

In addition, there are more practical things, such as she learned simple voodoo, learned more than a dozen herbal remedies, and learned some climate knowledge and animal habits in the swamp.Finally, she observed the orcs' group hunts and jungle mock battles.Orcs are proficient in field battles. They know how to design traps with simple resources, how to use poison, and how to use terrain. Isrit couldn't master it in such a short period of time, but he still remembered the general idea.

Of course, she also gave a lot of things to the orcs.

Basic hygienic knowledge, simple surgical methods, identification of herbs from forest witches, methods of making potions, methods of cultivating rice, how to communicate with humans, and how to conduct simple trade with the outside world.The swamp orcs have all sorts of untapped resources here.For example, this place is suitable for growing rice, but the orcs don't know how to farm at all. For example, precious medicinal materials and animal fur are produced here, but they lack trade channels and cannot get wealth.
