Chapter 274: fair trade

"If I heard it right, you mean 'deal'? What deal?" Barrett, like Ricky and Lulu, didn't quite understand, "Who made the deal with whom?"

"Of course it's our goblins and the humans in this farm!" Peer said of course, "because this is a transaction, so we can take things from the farm in an open and honest way. This is not stealing."

"It's not stealing!", "Well, it's not!" Ricky and Lulu couldn't help nodding their heads beside them.

In the dead of night, after everyone fell asleep, he sneaked a few rabbits over, and even put the guarding dog into a coma. Is this called "open and fair"? Or is it that the ideology and values ​​of the goblins are very different from those of humans? Barrett murmured inwardly.

If there is such a deal, who did it with the goblins? He surmised to himself. The most likely one is one of Old Samuel's daughters wearing red, yellow, and blue headscarves, but the barbarians really have no idea which one is. However, he just needs to ask directly.

"You said it was a deal, who made it with you?" Barbarian looked at Pei'er.

"You humans." The little goblin fluttered her wings softly.

"Which human? Male or female?" Barrett asked again.

"No one, that's what I thought in my heart." Peer said suddenly.

"What do you mean?" The barbarian was a little confused. "What do you mean, no one has made a deal with you, and everything is just your own."

"What's the matter? What's the deal?" Pei'er pinched her waist again and said loudly, "You humans come to our home from time to time, from the trunks of those maple trees. Drill holes, put pipes in them, and hang wooden barrels to collect maple sap. Not only that, but you often pick all kinds of fungi, berries, and other plants in our home, don’t you?” she asked her friends.

"Yes, Lulu likes to eat blueberries, but every year when the blueberries are ripe, they will be illuminated by you." Ricky said with courage.

"Blueberries are delicious!" Lulu nodded vigorously, "I also like gooseberries. If you don't have either, beets and pumpkins are fine. Lulu is not a picky eater."

"Well, look at it." Peer raised her head and said to Barrett, "They took a lot of things from our house, and I didn't say anything, and I didn't shoot them with bows and arrows often..."

It seemed that he had shot, Barrett sighed inwardly. The goblin's bow and arrow can not only make the person hit by the arrow fall asleep, but also cause short-term memory loss. If the arrow hit can't save these two effects, after waking up from a stupor, he will forget what happened in a short period of time. Goblins sometimes use their abilities to play pranks, causing travelers to get lost inexplicably, or to lose certain items on their bodies.

Of course, goblins sometimes allow the traveler to compensate by allowing the traveler to pick one item from their collection, if the traveler's response is calm, or has a good sense of humor.

"We are all so generous, and of course they should be more generous." Peer continued confidently, "You humans have taken a lot of things from our fairy home, so we also took some things from your human home. , we exchanged with each other, that's the 'deal', I'm right."

Hmm... that sounds a little reasonable. Barrett touched the stubble on his chin and nodded subconsciously, "However, don't you need to agree with each other?" He found the crux of the problem.

"They did it without our consent, so I don't think we need to," Pell said. "I heard you humans say that the key to 'dealing' is to be fair, isn't it, I think it's fair. of."

Well, Barrett was a little silent. The crooked truth of this little guy is really not so easy to refute, and he has never been good at talking.

"However, it's not a solution for this situation to continue like this, is it?" Barrett looked at the arrogant Peer, "The problem is actually very easy to solve, you follow me to find the owner of this farm, between the two of you. You can communicate well."

"I don't!" Peer bit her lip tightly, and her little friends retracted behind her again, "They'll catch us, put us in a cage, or sell it!"

"Why do you say that?" Barrett frowned. "Have you been caught before?"

"Well, I was caught a long time ago." Lulu said timidly.

"In terms of your human time, it was about four hundred years ago." Ricky explained to Barrett.

It's really long enough! Barrett heard that the goblin, the darling of nature, is also an immortal species. They never age and only die from accidental injury or serious illness.

"Hmph, that's a very bad old human. He bought a lot of our clansmen, locked us all in cages, and stabbed us with needles from time to time!" Even though more than 400 years have passed, Pei Er said Still very angry.

"It hurts, there's a lot of blood coming out." Lu Lu's expression was a little scared.

"He collected our blood and wanted to do something." Ricky added.

"She wanted to use our blood to refine a potion that could last forever, but he failed in the end and turned into a pool of mud!" Peer became happy, "The stinky, stinky mud is even more stinky than you. ' she said to Barrett.

"..."

The goblins are kind-hearted and cute in appearance, but some like to play pranks, and ordinary human beings are unlikely to do anything to hurt them. Moreover, their 'natural stealth', 'special bow and arrow' and other spell-like abilities are also quite outstanding, and their self-protection ability is very strong, and they will not be harmed under normal circumstances.

But there are perverts at heart, or guys with other motives, who use elite adventurers like Barrett to collect them. This is the way the world is, and Barrett doesn't want to feel anything, and the bad things he has done are actually not too few.

"Cough, how about this, you follow me to communicate with the farm owner here, and I will protect you during this period." The barbarian said to several goblins, "If anyone wants to arrest you, I will knock him down. Believe me. I~lightnovelpub.net~ I am amazing!"

"But, you arrested us just now." Peer said distrustfully, "and used that bad bird to scare us! I don't believe it can eat us."

This really works! "Hey, look, didn't I let you go again. Also, I got you because I thought you were all thieves, and I'm here for thieves," said Barrett.

"We are not thieves!" The goblins retorted loudly.

"Yes, yes, don't be noisy, I know!" Barbarian waved his hand and explained patiently, "I thought you were thieves, so I arrested you. But you are not, so I let you go and plan to protect you. Look, isn't this a normal thing?" He sighed again in his heart, feeling like he was coaxing a child.

"You will really protect us?" Peer's expression softened a lot after listening to Barrett's crooked reasoning.

"Of course!" Barrett said sincerely, "This matter is not to be resolved in the end, otherwise the next time the farmer invites other people to catch the thief, hey, listen to me, I know you are not thieves." He stretched out his hand Stop the goblins' rebuttal, "If someone else comes to arrest you next time, that person may not be as good as me."

The goblins looked at each other, their attitudes seemed a little loose.

"Let's make this a real 'deal,' a fair deal that's good for you and them," Barrett continued to persuade.

Alas, this kind of thing really doesn't suit me, he said to himself, it's not all for soul energy.
