  Chapter 21 Spear and Shield

  Xue Ling held her breath silently, watching the young man foaming at the mouth and being dragged out of the hall by the man in red with the flame mask as if he was dead.

  Ambergris scent?

  Xue Ling recalled Fang Bie's previous warning. Fang Bie's warning was obviously so understated. How could such a serious situation happen?

  Is this person dead?

  "Ambergris?" Xue Ling asked.

  Fang Bie nodded: "Ambergris, the ambergris here has a certain hallucinogenic effect. You can control the dispersion of ambergris through purposeful breathing and the depth of your own skills. If this city People in the hall who ingest a large amount of the aroma without any guidance or feel that it is comfortable and stimulating to breathe will become hallucinogenic and crazy like this person, and then be knocked unconscious and thrown out." "But even so, everyone can be in this hall

  . The time you can stay in is also limited. The longer you stay, the deeper your skills are and the more respected you will be by others." "But you must also

  act within your ability. After all, if you really accumulate toxins in order to show off your strength, you will go crazy. , but it will become a joke."

  "After all." Fang Bie looked at Xue Ling: "Look, if you go crazy, someone will knock off your mask."

  Xue Ling shuddered.

  Yes, it's so embarrassing.

  "Why is there such a design?" Xue Ling couldn't help but ask.

  Because such a design would be really strange.

  "Because this is the Palace of the Dragon King." Fang Bie replied.

  "The Palace of the Dragon King?" Xue Ling asked.

  Fang Bie took Xue Ling's hand and continued to move forward: "Yes, the Palace of the Dragon King." "

  This is the Dragon King's territory. Everyone must act according to the Dragon King's will, just as the Dragon King gave this hidden identity deal The place is the same, but no one is allowed to hide here all day long and never leave. This ambergris is also a threshold for elimination, so that the people in it will not be too weak." Xue Ling bit her lip: "This is

  also It's too complicated."

  Fang Bie smiled: "Then Qinghu, do you want a simpler way?"

  Xue Ling didn't think about who the green fox was referring to at the first time, and then realized that it was herself, and finally started Think about how you would achieve this effect if you were yourself.

  Her first reaction was to register everyone's rank and name, and to fabricate official methods such as registration.

  I even blushed a little at that moment. After all, if this was really the case, the anonymous transaction in the Palace of the Dragon King would be meaningless.

  On the other side, Fang Bie had stopped in front of a stall: "Are these gloves gold gloves?"

  Fang Bie said in a rich and round baritone.

  Xue Ling walked around Fang Bie's body in a black cloak and looked forward. Sure enough, she saw different objects placed on the stall in front of Fang Bie, such as the shiny-looking gloves that Fang Bie just selected, and other items. The gleaming dagger and a small box that looked very delicate seemed to be a mechanism for launching hidden weapons.

  "This big brother is really a good judge of goods." The mask on the face of the shop owner opposite is a charming fire fox, and his voice is also soft and charming, which makes people feel that their bones are crispy when they hear it: "This glove is made of sky silk mixed with mysterious... Made of iron, after wearing it, you can use it with bare hands and become invulnerable. It is the best companion equipment for those who are skilled in martial arts."

  Fang Bie said calmly: "Invulnerable?"

  Red Fox nodded repeatedly and took it out very skillfully. A piece of wrought iron was placed on the table in front of him and handed to Fang Bie: "Please check it, sir. This is good quality wrought iron. There is no fraud."

  Fang Bie took it casually, looked at it and handed it back: "Really."

  Red Fox said with a smile: "Brother Emotional has extraordinary eyesight."

  With that said, she put the piece of wrought iron away, took out the dagger on the side, and after holding it down, it was like cutting sausages, click, click, click, click three times. , cut the piece of wrought iron into three thumb-sized pieces.

  "This dagger is called Fish Chop. I picked it up from a fisherman. It can cut iron like mud. It is a magic weapon. If you want it, brother, I can sell it to you for a thousand taels." "Nothing."

  Hong Hu paused as he said this, then put on the soft gold gloves, flipped his slender fingers over Fang Bie's hand, then put his hand on the chopping board, and at the same time took the iron-sharpening knife. Fish-killing dagger, she turned her head and seemed to be smiling sweetly. Although the red fox mask hid her expression, you could still hear the faint and clear laughter: "Brother, please watch carefully." As she said this, she held the fish-killing dagger in her hand

  . He lightly scratched his finger, then raised his palm, only to see that there wasn't even a scratch on it.

  "Golden gloves are invulnerable and can be used with bare hands. They are contradictory, but my fish-killing dagger can't cut through my gold gloves." "

  This glove costs three thousand taels, one price."

  Xue Ling looked at it with surprise. Heartbeat.

  Yes, a glove that can withstand a dagger that is as sharp as iron is sold for only three thousand taels.

  If - yes, just if, Xue Ling has three thousand taels of silver, she will definitely buy it without hesitation, so that when she practices Rolex's soft sword swordsmanship in the future, she no longer has to worry about her fingers and herself. The family was separated.

  But three thousand taels, I really can only think about it.

  After all, the monthly salary of a first-rank imperial master in the Zhou Dynasty was only eighty-seven shi meters. One tael of silver could buy almost two shi meters in good years. In other words, the monthly salary of a grand master was forty-three taels and five kilograms of silver, which is Five hundred and twenty-two taels of silver, and it took six years of saving without food or water to buy this gold glove.

  Of course, a grand master's income in a year would definitely be more than the five hundred and twenty-two taels of silver, but these gold gloves are really very expensive.

  Based on Xue Ling's current monthly salary of four taels of silver, it would take Xue Ling herself to work without food or water for 625 years to afford these three thousand taels of silver.

  Sure enough, working class people have a hard life.

  While Xue Ling was looking at him with hot eyes, Fang Bie himself spoke slowly: "Can you let me try it?" Red Fox

  looked at the monkey-faced guest in front of him: "No, this is a valuable item. I can't give you a trial until you pay a deposit."

  "How much is the deposit?" Fang Bie asked.

  "The deposit is five hundred taels." Red Fox replied decisively.

  Well, one year's salary for a grand master, Xue Ling said in her mind.

  Sure enough, everyone in the world is very rich?

  Fang Bie smiled and said, "Then I won't try it. I'll ask Sister Fox to give it a try." "

  You're still wearing your precious gloves."

  "Then use your precious dagger to scratch both the front and back. How about you? What?"

  Fang Bi's voice was still a rich middle-aged voice, and Sister Fox also called her kindly and lovely, but as soon as these words came out, Red Fox's movements suddenly froze.

  "You..." She only said one word and couldn't continue.
