Arcane Universe

Feng Chou walked into the courtyard gate. Inside was a small courtyard. In the middle of the courtyard, there was a well. Next to the well were two large wooden basins. One basin was filled with dirty clothes. A basin was half-full of sewage and half-washed clothes. These clothes and the cold well water should be the culprit of this woman’s red hands.

On both sides of the yard, I pulled a few ropes. On the ropes hung the sheets and clothes that had just been washed.

The woman pointed to the clothes on the rope and said: “You rent my house, and you can wash the dirty clothes for me, 10 leather for a bed sheet and 2 leather for the clothes.”

Feng Chou showed a look of surprise and said: “That’s great.”

The woman smiled triumphantly, she knew that these rough guys who danced with knives and guns most hated washing clothes.

Feng Chou took out a deflated wallet from his arms.

When this purse was just taken out, the woman was complexion sank, but her face was again smiling at the next moment, because Feng Chou did not take out all the Silver Coin from the purse. There are dazzling gold coins.

Feng Chou took out 2 small Golden Lions and 4 silver crowns, handed them to the woman, and said, “Here you are, half a year rent.”

The woman will take up the laundry water. He wiped his hand, and reached out to take the money.

She took the gold coin and slapped it in front of her, and looked at it carefully for a while, and then weighed the weight. This was nodded and she was about to put the money away.

For civilians, gold coins are indeed an uncommon thing, but the hostess of such a courtyard is not uncommon.

The child next to him couldn’t help but come up at this time and said: “Mother, give me one, let me see it.”

The woman took out a gold coin and gave it to the child. Child happily played with the gold coin, the beautiful gold red almost made him unable to move his eyes.

When the woman cautiously put the remaining gold coin into her arms, Feng Chou rubbed her hands and asked: “Lady Boss, can we sign the contract for renting a house?”

p>

Lady Boss listened to him and said, “Follow me.” Then she walked into the house.

After two steps, she seemed to think of something again, turned around, took the gold coin from the child’s hand, and then entered the house.

The house is a simple but large living room with a fireplace in the innermost part of the living room.

Because it is not yet winter, the fireplace is not at all lit.

In the center of the living room, three old sofas are surrounded by a wooden table that you got acquainted with.

There are four closed doors in the four corners of the living room.

In the center of the left wall of the living room, there is a half-person high cabinet with a bottle of ink on the cabinet and a dip pen on a small pen holder.

Lady Boss came to the cabinet and opened the door of the cabinet. There was some wine in the lower part of the cabinet and some paper in the upper part.

Lady Boss took out a piece of yellow rough paper from the cabinet and placed it on the top of the cabinet. Then she opened the ink bottle and put the dipping pen in. Then she let her body open. Chou said: “Let’s take a look. This is a written rental contract. If there is no problem, please sign your name. By the way, do you know the characters?”

Feng Chou said:” Get to know some.”

As he said, he looked down. The text on the paper was crooked, and the sentences were not very fluent, and they were all spoken, but probably the meaning was correct.

Feng Chou signed Gavin’s name. In order to fit his identity as a mercenary, he deliberately wrote the letters very awkwardly.

The woman took the essay, but she still boasted: “Your writing is really good, young man, are you doing and so on?”

Feng Chou said: “Maid Soldier.”

The woman shook her head and said: “That’s a pity, you write so well, you should write a clerk instead of messing around with precarious mercenaries.”

Feng Chou didn’t know how to answer him, so he could only smile “sincerely”.

The woman took Feng Chou to see his room again.

The stairs on the second floor of this two-story small building are outside on the side of the house. The two walked out of the living room. The little boy was waving a wooden stick on the yard near the gate.

Feng Chou took a few glances, and what the child wielded was the Foundation Swordsmanship in the Knight training manual.

His posture is full of errors.

After two glances, Feng Chou slightly smiled and looked away.

Up to the second floor, the second floor is divided into four rooms. Each room is divided into an inner and outer room. If you live alone, it is quite spacious.

The room has simple furniture, bedding, tables, chairs and cabinets, so you can live in it.

Feng Chou nodded expressed satisfaction.

The woman gave him a key, “This is the key to your room. I can’t give you the key to the door. You can knock on the door when you come back at night. If it’s too late, it’s better not to come back. “

Feng Chou shrugged, didn’t say anything.

The woman said again: “Well, you can live in now. Anyway, you have already paid for this house. This house will belong to you from today.”

Feng Chou nodded said: “I can’t come back today. I took a task. It may take three or four days to come back.” The woman said indifferently: “I can’t control this, anyway, your lease term Counting from today, it’s your business if you can’t live.”

Going downstairs, Feng Chou walked out the door.

When passing by the boy, he suddenly called out: “Hey! I heard you say the mission, are you a mercenary?”

Feng Chou said, “Yes?”

The boy said: “Can you tell me about your task?”

Feng Chou said: “Yes, but you have to wait for me to come back, because this is my first A mission.”

The boy suddenly looked uninterested, “che, turned out to be a rookie.”

After speaking, he waved the stick in his hand.

Out of the yard, Feng Chou quickly walked out of the cluttered residential area and came to the street. He walked around half of the city along the street and came to the north gate of the city.

The slums of this city are located in the northernmost part of the city. The streets here have become narrow, and there are no shops and taverns on both sides. Only low shantytowns are left, and sewage flows across the floor.

As a last resort, Feng Chou had to go to the city’s Second Layer bypass first.

The north city gate of the city looks particularly deserted.

The location of Antalia is not like a small town. It is used to control all around agricultural areas. On the contrary, the city is too large, so it avoids the prosperous agriculture in the territory as much as possible. The control of regions and agricultural areas relies on more than 30 castles in the territory.

So, outside the north gate of the city of Antalia, not at all farmland, but there is a large open and flat land not far from the city gate.

This is the training ground for the Antalia lord guards and the city defense forces, and it is also the venue for the Knights’ annual competition.

Feng Chou followed a poorly-conditioned dirt road and bypassed this huge training ground.

There are fences around the training field, and squad guards are stationed in the corners of the training field. Feng Chou doesn’t want to cause trouble for two steps.

The northern edge of the training field is a forest. The bumpy road bypasses the training field and enters the forest from the northeast corner of the training field.

This poor road leads to Feng Chou’s destination “Claire Gentleman’s Land”.
