Chapter 118 The Curse of Boots

The happy atmosphere continued, and Gro told his subordinates: "Find a few boxes, pack all these ores, and take them back."

"Yes." The guard replied and went to do as he did.

Li Cha looked at Old Malun and said, "It's time to work."

The strange light in Old Malun's eyes quickly faded, and with a look of panic, he quickly said, "Don't dare, don't dare, it's my honor to be able to help Your Excellency Richard."

In the next moment, before Richard could make a sound, Gero looked at the mine owner Orrick with a serious look, and pointed to old Mullen: "This man has done a good job, he has helped your Excellency Richard, and you reward him. 10 gold coins is also a punishment for your rudeness before."

"Uh, this..."

"Let's go." Li Cha saw that the guards had already used a box to put a few small cobalt ore in it, and said without being long-winded.

"Okay." Gro also knew that Richard's time was precious and wanted to get things done in one day. With a wave of his hand, he immediately led the guards on horseback and ran out of the mine, leaving like a wind.

Inside the mine, Aurek looked at the direction Groo and his party were leaving, his expression slightly distorted, hesitating whether to listen to what Groo said just now.

But at this time, Old Malun walked directly in front of him, his eyes twinkling and said: "Master mine owner, don't forget to reward me with 10 gold coins, this is what His Royal Highness said in person."

"What if I don't give it to you?" Aurek narrowed his eyes and looked at Old Mullen with a bit of threat. 10 gold coins, although he has some pain, he can still afford it. But the behavior of old Mullen in front of him made him extremely unhappy, and he wanted to teach him a lesson, so that old Mullen knew who was the owner of this mine.

Who knew that Old Mullen would not eat this set at all, he glanced at it and said, "You can do it if you don't give it to me, I will find a chance to tell Prince Gero. When the time comes, His Royal Highness will know that you have deceived him, presumably not a few times. A gold coin is as simple as that."

"You!" Aurek stared, thought for a while and said coldly, "You took these 10 gold coins, what can you do? Do you want to continue working, not afraid..."

"That's what you said." Old Mullen said, "With 10 gold coins, plus my savings from working for so many years, it will be a lot of money, why should I continue to work? Of course I I'm leaving, hurry up, give me the gold coins, I'm in a hurry."

"I..." Aurek was completely at a loss for words.

...

quite a while.

Aurek stood in the mine and watched Old Mullen leave with a small burden on his back. He was very angry. But there were a lot of miners around, watching the old Mullen go away, and there was a lot of discussion.

"Old Mullen actually left, I thought he would continue to work."

"I think so too. After all, he has been working for so many years. He was in the mine before I came. He left as soon as he said it, and he had no nostalgia at all."

"Yeah, he was there before I came, and he taught me how to mine, but he left now."

"Old Mullen taught me too and was here before me."

"It seems that when the last mine owner, he worked here."

"I heard that he has been there since the mine opened."

"Huh?" Orek, the mine owner, was stunned for a while, then turned his head to look at the miners who were discussing, feeling that something was not right: "Old Mullen has been working here since the mine opened? How is it possible? Then how much did he have to do? Years!"

"Uh, this..." Numerous miners couldn't make it clear.

Only then did Oric realize that Old Mullen seemed a little mysterious. Although he was just an ordinary miner, no one knew exactly how many years he had worked in the mine, how old he was, where he came from, and why he came here. Work as a miner here.

"This..." Aurek's eyes flickered, trying to figure it out, but as soon as his thoughts changed, he immediately threw away old Mullen.

No matter how mysterious it is, what can it be, how mysterious is it not just a miner? Go and go, as long as there is still someone to work for him.

It's just a pity that he has 10 gold coins, how about sending a few overseers to catch up and grab it back? Forget it, let's not bother, just bear with it, let the remaining miners do more work, and it won't take long for them to make money.

Thinking of this, Orrick turned his head to look at the miners and said, "Don't stand still for me, all go to work! Hurry up! By the way, old Mullen is gone, the number of people is small, but every day The amount of ore to be dug cannot be less, so from today onwards, each of you will work for an extra half an hour until new miners are recruited!"

"coax!"

The miners were very dissatisfied, but Aurek glanced coldly, and many miners were collectively cowardly, muttering to the mine wall of the mining area, and honestly began to work, and soon the sound of "ding ding ding dong" sounded again. .

...

"Ding ding ding ding ding", a crisp sound resounded in a corner of the plain.

On the ground, a few pieces of white gravel were arranged in strange patterns, and in the middle was a tattered black boot. Old Mullen bent over and stood in front of the boots with a dignified face, grabbing a large number of various styles in his hand. Gold coins, eyes fixed on the boots.

Old Mullen tilted his palm, and the gold coins immediately flowed toward the boots like water, making a "ding ding ding" sound. Obviously, a lot of gold coins were already loaded in the boots at this time.

"Tink, tinkle, tinkle..."

The sound kept ringing, and Old Mullen kept taking out gold coins from his small package and scatter them, as if they were inexhaustible, and the boots seemed to have no bottoms, no matter how many gold coins were thrown in, they were not full.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes, thirty minutes, an hour...

A full hour passed, and Old Mullen continued to sprinkle gold coins into his boots, his face was sweating, and his expression was extremely nervous.

At this time, the boots were still not full of gold coins, but there was a faint golden light shining through, which gave old Mullen a little hope.

"Ding ding dong, ding ding dong..." Old Maren threw a handful of gold coins, and finally, according to his expectations, there were gold coins showing the mouth of his boots.

"Huh, I'm finally about to succeed, and I'm finally going to lift the damn curse!" Old Mullen said with a slightly distorted expression. The next moment, he reached into the package again, took out the ten gold coins he just got, and breathed a little heavy. , one by one sprinkled toward the boots.

"Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!"

Every time a gold coin was dropped, Old Mullen's body trembled, and the pupils of his eyes contracted uncontrollably.

When the seventh gold coin fell, Old Mullen's hands were shaking, the pupils of his eyes had shrunk into two black dots, and the mouth of his boots had been piled up with gold coins, which were about to overflow.

"breathe--"

Old Mullen took a deep breath, loosened his hand, the eighth gold coin fell, and a crisp sound sounded, and then he saw that the inside of the boots seemed to be stimulated, and suddenly there was a screeching like a mad woman.

At the same time as the screams came out, the boots vibrated violently, and all the gold coins seemed to be swallowed by some evil beast, and were instantly sucked into the boots and disappeared. Immediately after, the boots shrunk down quickly, and with a "pop" sound, a fire burned, and the flame was blood red.

The blood-red light was reflected on Old Mullen's face, and Old Mullen's face, hands, feet, limbs, torso, and entire body were rapidly changing.

In the sound of "kakaka", old Malun turned from old to young, and finally turned into a man in his thirties.

Looking at the hands that had taken off the calluses and touching the skin that had regained its elasticity, Old Mullen closed his eyes and felt everything intoxicated.

He opened his eyes halfway, revealing some sharp eyes, and said to himself: "Oh, you gave me such a vicious curse, set me so many harsh conditions, and trapped me in this barren place. , ready to let me live forever like a poor man, earning gold coins without relief.

But... a pity! Still underestimate my perseverance, underestimate my character, and underestimate my ability! In the beginning, the insurance point should have killed me directly, but now let me get rid of the curse, then it is time to be careful of my revenge!

Although, after so many years, my level has dropped a lot, and my combat power has been greatly weakened, but give me a period of time to recover, then I will show my horror. "

Old Mullen, or rather, Mullen straightened his body, looked into the distance, and said word by word: "Baishi Tower, wait, I will settle the account with you soon!"

After speaking, Mullen's body twisted and disappeared into the air like blue smoke.

In place, the boots slowly burned away in the blood-red flames, turned into ashes, and when the wind blew, they disappeared cleanly, as if they had never existed.
