Chapter 11 First News
Every city will always have its own special existence. In Stone City, the 'Widow Hotel' is just like this.
More than ten years ago, Widow Sha's husband used to be a very good mercenary and reached the highest level seven mercenary. He was only one step away from becoming the king of a generation of mercenaries.
However, in a defensive battle in the Stone City, the powerful husband, although repelled the attack of the invading enemy, died in the last battle.
No one can destroy her husband's achievements, and also makes the only wife, Widow Sha, become a unique existence in the Stone City. People opened a tavern independently because her husband respected her, but she refused the assistance of mercenaries and even the city owner.
Although more than ten years have passed, it has not affected the status of Widsha among the mercenaries. Almost all mercenaries have to call 'Sister Sha' when they see her!
Today, Widow Sha stood at the door of the hotel as usual and greeted the mercenaries who came. A long black dress reveals a little noble atmosphere. And the years did not seem to leave traces on her face, and the baby-like skin was smooth and ruddy. However, there is always a trace of sadness floating in the eyes.
This habit has lasted for more than ten years since her husband's death.
Perhaps her behavior is waiting for her husband's return. At this time, he did not accept the reality.
"Aunt Sha, waiting for the guests to arrive again!"
As soon as Gu Li came up, he greeted him familiarly. In the past, it was obvious that I came here.
However, Widow Sha hasn't seen Gu Li for more than a year. Obviously, she didn't recognize Gu Li at once. After carefully looking up and down, he said in surprise, "Reiko, you came back!"
"Yes! Aunt Sha, I just returned to Stone City today. This is not the first thing I came to you!"
"You and your father Guda have never returned since they accepted the task and left Stone City a year and a half ago. People in Stone City are talking about what has been wrong with you. But I'm relieved to see you back!"
Widow Sha obviously agrees with the members of popular mercenaries such as Guda, otherwise she would not have worried about them. Seeing that Gu Li was still alive, he inferred that Gu Da and others must not have died as rumored.
"Aunt Sha, my father and others have died at the hands of pirates, and I am the only member of the Meteor Mercenary Regiment who went to the mission to survive!"
Gu Li did not hide anything. More than a year had passed since the death of his father Gu Da, and he gradually came out of the shadow of grief. Although the tone at this time is also a little lost, it is much more ordinary than before.
Woman Sha listened, and a deep sinking and sad atmosphere slowly spread around. After all, there are very few mercenaries who can end well.
After a long time, she sighed faintly and said, "Reiko, I can only say that I'm really sorry! The style of Commander Guda is one of the few upright mercenaries in the whole Stone City. The accidental death also means that there is a lack of a great mercenary in the mercenary world!"
From Widow Sha's evaluation of Guda, we can see how Guda is.
"Aunt Sha, let's not recall the past. Come on, I'll introduce you to one!" Gu Li pulled Wang Fei and said, "This is the boss I recognize outside. You can call him Wang Fei!"
Woth Sha put away her sad look and turned her head to look at Wang Fei curiously. Gu Li has been watching her grow up since she was a child. She knows how she is. From Gu Li's tone, I listened to the pride from the bottom of my heart.
looked up and down at Wang Fei, and the surprise in Widow Sha's eyes became stronger and stronger.
"Hello, Aunt Sha, I'm Wang Fei!"
Although Wang Fei didn't understand why the other party showed that expression. However, he still greeted politely, and his name was also learning from Gu Li.
"Okay, okay!" Widow Sha obviously did not completely withdraw her mind and dealt with it casually. But her eyes still stared at Wang Fei's face.
"Aunt Sha, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Li had the same doubt in his heart, and then thought of the same expression from Widow Sha's surprise that his father saw Wang Fei for the first time. Is there something strange about the boss's appearance?
"Nothing, nothing!" Widow Sha quickly put away her strange eyes, and a smile appeared on her face for a moment. She explained to Wang Fei, "Wang Fei, your appearance reminds me of some past events. It's really rude!"
"It doesn't matter! There are countless people in fate, and naturally there are many people who look similar!" Wang Fei answered with a simple face, and his innocent face was always smiling.
However, a doubt has risen in Wang Fei's heart. It's not strange to see this kind of expression once. And from the expressions of Guda and Widow Sha, they are so similar and surprised, so what is the relationship between the two?
"Wang Fei, this is your first time to come to my small hotel! Now let Lizi take you to have a good time and taste the characteristics of my hotel!"
Sweeping away the previous strangeness, Widow Sha immediately became enthusiastic. She took Gu Li in one hand and Wang Fei in the other, and the three of them entered the hotel together.
Widow Sha's hotel, from the outside, is just an ordinary hotel. As soon as you walk in, you will immediately find something strange.
There is a spacious hall with nearly 1,000 square meters. Mahogany tables of different sizes are placed in a messy order, but overall, they are very harmonious.
Almost all the seats in the hall sit on all kinds of people. There are black hair, yellow hair, red hair... and yellow skin. There are dark skin, white skin... and there are all kinds of weapons around them.
Obviously, these people who are drinking happily are the mercenaries in the Stone City.
The Widow Hotel has another name in the Stone City, which is the Home of Mercenaries.
Countless mercenaries gathered together, and all kinds of discussions came one after another. Wang Fei heard from the messy conversation that these mercenaries discussed some of their experiences.
Don't underestimate the experience of mercenaries. If you are willing to use your brain, you can learn countless useful knowledge from other people's experiences. And this knowledge can help you avoid bloodshed and even death in your mercenary career.
"Sister Sha, you're here!"
"How are you, Sister Sha!"
"Sister Sha!"
Wherever Widsha passes by, the mercenaries will automatically stop talking and greet them respectfully. It is obvious that it is not only the reputation left by her husband that she can be so respected by the mercenaries.
In the Stone City, all the mercenaries know that the hospitality price of Widow Sha Hotel is not low. But for more than ten years, Widow Sha has always lived in poverty. Most of the hotel's income is used to help mercenaries in need.
Wang Fei looked at the surrounding arrangements and simple decorations. Except for some attendants, there were no guards around him. It can be seen that the mercenaries must abide by the rules of the store.
The two quickly found an inconspicuous four-person table in the corner and sat down. Widow Sha greeted a waitress and said, "You are responsible for their service. I'll find two clothes. Hey, these two kids must have suffered a lot along the way!"
"Yes, Sister Sha!" The waiter replied respectfully.
At this time, Widow Sha said to Wang Fei and the two, "Stay here obediently, and I'll find you decent clothes. When you go out like this, where do others think you are from?"
It turned out that after Wang Fei and Gu Li entered the Stone City, they did not notice their clothes and came directly to the Widow Hotel. At this time, I finally realized that the tattered clothes had become a standard beggar's clothing!
"Thank you, Aunt Sha!" The two of them thanked with one voice.
After Widsha left, Gu Li immediately became active and shouted loudly to the waiter, "Sister, please help me with two special snacks, and then serve a jar of good fruit wine!"
"One more jar of snow!" Wang Fei immediately added.
The waiter's eyes are strange. No matter how much mercenaries drink, they will not complete the whole altar. But since it's Sister Sha's special order, it's up to the two teenagers!
As soon as the waiter left, Wang Fei's sensitive ears heard the discussion on the table of ten people around him.
"Lao Hei, there is still one month left, which is the enrollment time of Zhengqi College. Your son should be able to enter Zhengqi College this time!"
"Yes, Lao Hei's son is only 18 years old this year, and he is already an eight-ring star disciple. In the whole Stone City, he is also a rare talented and outstanding teenager. There must be no problem with being admitted to Zhengqi College this time!"
......
Wang Fei was puzzled when he asked Gu Li, "Second, what is Zhengqi College?"
