"Let's play mahjong."
"Mahjong?" Hunter Arnold was even more interested. He looked at Zheng Yichen's manual work. A piece of wood of good quality was divided into many small pieces. With the help of the measuring ruler, those small pieces of wood were subsequently cut. into rectangular parallelepipeds with the same specifications.
There are no traces on the back, but different groups are engraved on the front, including long strips and cylinders. The number should represent numbers. There are four cards of each type, including cards representing directions.
However, from a quantitative perspective, Zheng Yichen has only completed about half of the progress.
"I'm here to help." Hunter Arnold took out his dagger and started to help Zheng Yichen handle the small pieces of wood.
He was very straightforward when he took action. After simply measuring the specifications with a measuring stick, he quickly cut the small pieces of wood into the desired specifications. Seeing this, Zheng Yichen concentrated on the carving work. With his help, the rest Those parts were completed quickly.
A pair of hand-made mahjong. Although it feels a bit light, it can still be used here.
"Let me tell you some simple rules." Zheng Yichen briefly explained the gameplay to Arnold, who was looking forward to it.
"It's a very novel thing. Although it is a bit troublesome to carry, I think I will like it." After the hunter Arnold learned the relevant rules, he raised his eyebrows slightly and naturally changed the topic to Zheng Yichen: "Looks like you've been through a tough fight."
Zheng Yichen glanced at his left arm: "I met a mule with horns. Wait for me."
He took the simply processed mule head from the church's storage room. Looking at it, hunter Arnold was not too surprised: "You didn't sell this thing to the research institute. Do you want to use it yourself?"
"Yes, but I'm not good at dealing with this." Zheng Yichen did not hide his purpose.
Arnold checked the mule's head: "The most valuable parts are probably its horns and tongue. The meat part is of no use. Some special people should want the skull and brain, but they have been left there for a long time." , only the skull can be used."
As a more professional hunter, Arnold quickly identified the value of this thing: "Conventional processing methods will waste such materials. It is recommended that you remove the flesh and blood parts and keep the rest. "
"I can help you with the tongue part, but there is a fee."
The head and horns of a mule can be stored for a long time, but the tongue is made of flesh and blood, but the texture is like tough tendons, but even that kind of thing needs to be handled well before it can be used well. Although he and hunter Arnold We know each other, but it's just a few meetings, and the charges are normal.
"As long as the price is acceptable to me, then I'll trouble you."
Arnold nodded and quoted a price that Zheng Yichen felt was quite appropriate, fifteen thousand.
After he mentioned the price, he added additionally: "This thing is not an ordinary tongue, so it is quite troublesome to handle it well. What I did was only basic processing. You may be able to use it when you meet a better craftsman in the future." effect."
"You have to know that the length of this thing is really too short."
According to Zheng Yichen's account, the mule's tongue was very long. Normally it would stretch out almost half a meter, but the maximum extension was only about one meter. It would be difficult to make a whip with this length, and it would be inappropriate to use a bowstring.
Arnold himself is not a hunter who is good at making props. All he can do is rough processing, retaining the properties of this thing, and using it as a tool on a daily basis... such as a belt.
At least this thing is much stronger than the belts on the market.
The unicorn can be used as a short thorn by simply handling it. What's more important is that the thing is not made of metal, but its strength is not inferior to metal. It can be carried secretly when entering certain places, provided it is a means of hiding things. It is clever enough that while the instrument cannot detect it, it can also avoid being found.
"This thing seems to have some other effect." When performing follow-up treatment on this tongue, hunter Arnold said slightly in surprise. He shook the tongue in his hand, and a subtle hissing sound sounded in the air. At this sound, he immediately stopped.
"It seems that in addition to using this thing as a belt, you can also use it as a distraction prop. I feel that the charge is a bit low, but who made us agree?"
Zheng Yichen felt that after he gave the pair of mahjong to the hunter Arnold, he became more talkative. Arnold used an unknown potion to treat the tongue: "Okay, let's use this tongue. Just leave the thing for a few hours. Although there isn't much skin on its head, it's still useful. I'll help you take care of the head, and the skin belongs to me."
Zheng Yichen had no objection to this: "That's no problem."
All he wanted to keep at first was the horn, but now it's good to have an extra tongue that can be kept. The other parts are purely bonus.
Compared with the troublesome steps of treating the tongue, the mule's head was much faster. It didn't take long for Arnold to come back here with a head with only bones left, and said impatiently: "Let us try what you do." I want to get familiar with the rules of mahjong."
After finishing his business, Arnold seemed very addicted to cards. Zheng Yichen said to him: "Actually, it is the most interesting to play with four people."
Arnold looked at the other people in the church, stretched out his hand and gently rubbed his chin: "No one I know well is here. Let's bring over two enthusiastic ordinary citizens."
"Is this okay?" Zheng Yichen looked at the atmosphere of 'quiet time and peace' that filled the church, and then nodded: "I think this is okay too, do you think we can just bring two nuns over?"
Playing mahjong with a nun, or doing such a thing in a church, Zheng Yichen felt that this church really believed in some god's words, and the old man might give him a divine punishment directly.
However, what is believed in here is 'twilight'.
"You can give it a try." Arnold raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling that Zheng Yichen's proposal was very bold, but this proposal was exciting, since he was not the one to invite it anyway.
But...the nuns refused, including the nun Tia whom Zheng Yichen found.
After he came back a little disappointed, Arnold looked at Zheng Yichen with a surprised expression. Being looked at by a strong man like this made Zheng Yichen feel quite uncomfortable: "What's wrong?"
"You actually know a nun's name?"
"Huh? What's the special meaning of this?" Zheng Yichen was quite surprised to be asked this question.
Arnold shook his head: "The nuns here are sure to answer some questions, but it's not easy to really get to know them. Now that you know a nun's name, it's okay to talk to her more. "
What the hell kind of Riddler segment is this? ?
