Chapter 8 Shopping(1/2)

The operator of the food stall is a fish man, who is as fat and strong as a shark.

The stall sells teppanyaki pan-fried fish, which is the kind of fish that looks indistinguishable from a slug. It is simply pan-fried until it is half-cooked and then you can eat it. The texture in your mouth is similar to that of abalone, but it is smoother.

Ke Wen once strongly rejected this kind of fish.

Later, unable to resist Wei's coaxing, he tried to taste it.

As for what happens next...

Steamed, minced garlic, braised...

The method at the food stall in front of me is to fry it on an iron plate and then mix it into a thick condiment soup.

It seems a bit off topic...

Back to business.

What caught Ke Wen's attention was not the food stall or the food sold, but a small pendant hanging on the waist of the fishman boss.

The pendant was made of wood and was carved into the shape of a wind bird that lives near the coast, but the color was cyan.

Although the craftsmanship of the pendant was poor, Kewen felt something magical about it.

He looked at the pendant for a long time, and finally he resisted and did not use his strength to sense it.

Because he has already guessed something.

Blue Bird Talisman, this is Zuan.

In this way, behind the talisman is the incarnation of wind - Janna!

And the reason why he noticed something strange must be that the amulet contained the power of faith in Janna.

This made Kewen interested.

Even a new patch appeared in the series of plans in his mind.

Kewen couldn't help but stepped towards the food stall.

However, after taking a few steps, he stopped again.

Because Kewen discovered that the mysterious feeling on the pendant suddenly disappeared.

This made him slightly stunned.

Could it be that Janna noticed something and avoided it?

But that's not right.

He didn't do anything...

Just as Ke Wen was thinking about it, something surprising happened to him.

There was a mysterious feeling on the pendant again, but the feeling transmitted to him was very slight.

"Gulugulujiggu."

At this moment, the stall owner spotted Ke Wen standing in front of the stall, and the fish-man suddenly showed a smile that looked ferocious but felt very honest.

The fishman grinned his mouth full of fangs and spoke a string of fishman language to Coven.

Kewen's own supernatural power allowed him to understand the other party's meaning without using any power.

The fish man was inviting him to try his craft.

In response, Kewen turned his attention from the pendant to the fish-man's face.

He thought for a moment, then nodded with a smile, and stepped forward to sit on the chair.

There was another murloc chatter, and the boss was asking what he wanted to try.

Coven glanced at the box of fresh ingredients, then pointed to a squid and then to a boneless fish, the kind of slug-like fish.

The fishman smiled and said, "Wait a moment." Then he quickly picked out the largest squid from the box, and then opened his hand to grab a handful of boneless fish.

"Naga bless you." The fishman prayed in a low voice while handling the squids expertly: "Bless me for making a lot of money on this ignorant fool, so that I can go back and feed the pile of fish babies at home."

The muscles on Ke Wen's face twitched, causing the corners of his mouth to curl up.

He glanced at the Blue Bird Pendant, whose strange feeling increased again, then looked at the back of the fish-man boss and said with a smile: "I understand your language."

Click!

The blade of the knife was embedded in the cutting board, and the fishman's movements paused in astonishment.

He opened his mouth in surprise and turned his head, looked at Ke Wen and asked: "Can you understand?"

"I understand." Ke Wen smiled and nodded.

"Oh haha...it's so rare..."

The fishman boss showed a troubled look. After hesitation, he reluctantly said: "Okay! Then I will charge you two less copper teeth, and you can give me thirty-three copper teeth!"

After struggling to say these preferential words, the fish-man boss quickly turned back and continued working, as if he was afraid that Ke Wen would try to get in touch with him and ask for some preferential treatment.

Ke Wen was very happy to see it.

After a while, he stopped smiling and said to the fishman boss's back: "A silver gear, as long as you answer my question."

Snapped!

The cartilaginous fish was slapped on the cutting board by the boss. He quickly turned around and wiped his hands with the torn apron around his waist and asked: "What does the guest want to ask?"

"Well." Ke Wen pointed at the blue bird pendant: "Tell me the story about it."

The fishman boss looked down at his waist, and carefully picked up the blue bird pendant with his big hands: "This?"

"Yes." Kewen responded.

"No problem!" The fish-man showed a ferocious yet honest smile again.

He didn't hesitate and said directly: "This is passed down from our family, along with an ancestral precept."

"My great-great-great-grandfather was the first to run snacks here. At that time, people believed in Mingjana, the god of wind. My great-great-great-grandfather discovered that as long as he brought this, people would be more willing to come to his food stall.

"

"So this tradition has been passed down, and it has been passed down to me."

Scratching the back of his head in a naive manner, the fish-man grinned and said, "I will continue to pass it on, and I have discovered more than my great-great-grandfather."

"what have you found?"

Ke Wen took out a silver gear from his pocket, pressed it on the table with a click, pressed the silver coin with his fingers and pushed it to the other party.

When he retracted his fingers, the fishman immediately pinched the silver coin carefully with two sharp nails.

He treasured the silver coins in his pocket and then smiled and said: "Thank you boss, I found that I can pray to the God of Wind more. Every time there is a gray warning in the lower city, I will pray to Janna."

"And every time I pray, a breeze will appear around me, blowing away the haze around me and allowing me to breathe well."

"I also prayed a lot to Janna, which made my business here more and more prosperous. In addition to running snacks, I also ran some information-selling jobs."

"Guest, you might as well give it a try." The fishman boss sincerely suggested: "The next gray warning will be in these few days, and the visibility of the poisonous haze will only be at arm's length. You can try praying, and Janna will probably help.

You blew away the poisonous haze, really! The Zaun people do not lie to the Zaun people! My guests, please join me in believing in Janna!"

Hearing this, Kewen looked at the blue bird pendant again.

He felt that the supernatural power on it had increased slightly.

Thinking of something, Ke Wen once again took out a silver gear from his pocket and pushed it to the other party along the table.

"What else does the boss want to know?" The fish man quickly collected the silver coins and said more enthusiastically: "Are you interested in various information about the city? I can tell you everything I know."

"Need not."

Ke Wen shook his head slightly and pointed to the blue bird pendant: "I need you to pray sincerely until I say stop. Pay attention, you are praying sincerely."

"Pray?" The fishman boss was stunned.

He looked down at the pendant, and then nodded his neckless head vigorously without any reluctance.

"Okay!" He said with a silly smile: "The money paid by the boss is enough for me to earn for a month! I just pray that I won't receive other customers today!"

After saying that, the fishman boss made a gesture of putting his hands together and clamped the blue bird pendant between his palms.

He began to pray in the fish-man language in a jittery voice.

The first few prayers did not come from the sincerity, so Kewen did not feel that the supernatural power on the pendant increased.

But after a while, the fishman boss followed the inertia and entered a state of concentration.

He really began to pray with all his heart.

From this moment on, the supernatural power on the pendant has increased again!

Ke Wen remained silent and did not disturb.

After a quarter of an hour, the supernatural power on the pendant suddenly disappeared again.

Ke Wen immediately raised his head and looked around.

Finally, he noticed some changes in the sky above the Rift Valley.
