When the two parties parted, Zhou Jinru strongly demanded payment of room and board expenses, and the other party did not refuse.
This foothold can be said to be a transit station extending in all directions, and it is also a gathering place for messengers traveling in all directions.
"Maybe there's a point of contact for us here."
Zhou Jinru looked at the messengers and caravans coming and going, and thought about recruiting another operator.
God paid off, and he really found a rather shabby contact point with only one clerk.
The other party was also dumbfounded when he saw his colleagues arriving. This place is deep in the rainforest, and they haven't seen a single Rhode Island operator for a year and a half. Why did so many people suddenly come?
"Well, it seems that there is indeed an operator nearby. Let me take a look..."
A few seconds later, a resume was placed in front of Zhou Jinru.
"It's him."
He couldn't even imagine that there were thorns here. He would never let them go if he could catch a strong man.
Since the special service operators would only arrive in the evening, Zhou Jinru and others were not in a hurry to leave and went to a local tavern to kill time.
Coincidentally, several Longmen Guards Bureau officers were also resting here, already drunk and bragging with the locals.
"Come on, come on, drink!"
After downing the cool wine, a Guards Bureau officer hooked the person next to him by the neck with drunken eyes and shouted: "You know, I heard a very famous legend in Sargon these days. , Sargon’s Mansa had so much red gold that it could fill the entire desert, and she even organized an expedition, called the Red Gold Expedition, in an attempt to cross the Foehn Hot Lands, but there was no news afterward.”
"What, was Sargon ever so rich?"
The Guards Bureau officer smelled of alcohol: "Of course, haven't you seen those royal chiefs? Their fruit platters are full of emeralds, agates and pearls. They are all as rich as the rest of the country. Their pashas have built palaces one after another."
After saying this, he took another sip of wine, and suddenly found that the people around him were not interested in drinks and were drinking sodas one after another.
"I said brother, if you don't drink, what are you doing in the pub?"
"I only drink milk. Drinking alcohol is harmful to the body."
The Guards Bureau officer stared with red eyes: "No! If you listen to the story I told you, you must have a drink today! Otherwise, sing a song!"
Zhou Jinru raised the cup and used emotional perception to guide him: "You sing first?"
"I sing, I sing!"
The drunken Guards Bureau officer staggered onto the table and sang to his heart's content. When he reached the chorus, there was a roar of applause in the tavern.
"Hiccup, I'm done singing, how about you?"
Zhou Jinru raised his fingers and said, "Come here."
"What?"
boom!
He reached out and pressed the drunkard down on the table, and said calmly: "Look who I am!"
The dazed Guards Bureau officer opened his eyes little by little, and half of his drunkenness was gone: "Ah, it turns out it's you, you are the doctor from Rhode Island, I..."
In desperation, he took out a pendant from his pocket and stuffed it into Zhou Jinru's pocket, and said with a smile: "I'm drunk, I don't mean what I say, don't take it seriously, hahahaha..."
As he spoke, the Guards Bureau officer suddenly shrank under the table and fell asleep unconsciously.
When Zhou Jinru walked out of the tavern, it was already evening. He saw a soaked Inspector of the Guards Bureau at the entrance of the transfer station. The other person was a little troubled and a little anxious.
"Sir, several of my colleagues are missing. Do you know where they are?"
Zhou Jinru suddenly understood and took out the "Gawu" pendant in his pocket: "Are you talking about them? They are in the tavern."
"Yes," the bespectacled inspector's eyes lit up. Although his face was tired and anxious, he remained polite, "Yes, thank you for informing me. Can you give me this pendant? I am willing to pay for the Origin Stone." ingot."
He took out a bag and shook it. It was heavy and the Originium ingots made a crisp sound when they collided. It was very tempting.
Zhou Jinru handed over the pendant and took the Origin Stone ingot: "You're welcome."
With a large income, Zhou Jinru stood at the intersection blowing the wind, waiting for the thorns to arrive.
When there was only a little bit of sunset left, the Agor young man wearing a dust-proof coat finally arrived, but what made the doctor happy was that he was accompanied by two operators.
"Doctor, I'm here. This is the regional action plan given to you by Doctor Kelsey and Miss Amiya. The accompanying operators are Hong and Hongdou."
Zhou Jinru took the plan and looked at the contents carefully. The signatures were Kelxi and Amiya's signatures.
Hongdou said unexpectedly: "Mr. Zhou, I didn't expect you to be here!"
"And Xiaoke and Gumi, and Odekas."
Anko, who was holding a spear, hugged Keobei tightly, but Hong was not interested. Since his arrival, he has been standing by the doctor's side, acting like a personal guard.
"We'll leave tomorrow. As for where to go, I haven't decided yet. Let's rest first."
The leader has always been Xiao Ke, but now that she doesn't speak, Zhou Jinru doesn't know how to leave.
At this moment, someone shouted loudly from behind:
"Hey, you, you are that person, we have met."
The bearded man was sweating profusely and stared at Zhou Jinru's face with a complicated expression, as if he was making a decision in his heart.
Zhou Jinru remembered seeing him at the entrance of the Settlement Tavern, and then asked, "What do you want to say?"
"I know where the treasure is!"
"Not interested in."
Zhou Jinru led the operators to turn around and leave, but the bearded man was unwilling to give up and chased after him: "As long as you can give me five, no, three Originium ingots, I will tell you!"
Having just received a bag of Originium ingots, Zhou Jinru was not short of money. He squatted down and said seriously: "I will give you five Originium ingots. Please leave immediately, go home obediently, and stop running around."
The bearded man gritted his teeth: "Okay, I want three Originium ingots just to collect the money for traveling home. Maybe I'm not an explorer. Let me tell you, I have a dream treasure map, but it has been taken away. I sold it to a caravan in front of me, if you can catch up, you might be able to get it."
Zhou Jinru frowned and said, "Do you think this news is worth five Originium ingots?"
"I have been studying that treasure map for a long time. It records an ancient city that no longer exists, or a ruin. There must be a lot of treasures. Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to obtain it."
Even though this was second-hand news, Zhou Jinru still took out five Origin Stone ingots and handed them to the bearded man, and warned: "You are not suitable for taking risks. Don't do these things in the future. Go home honestly, find a job, and live a stable life." Bar."
The lonely man did not answer, and his back disappeared into the night.
Odecas asked, "Do you really believe him?"
"No, I just want to calm down his mind. If you don't keep your peace in Sargon, you will get killed."
