Chapter 20 Occupancy
The wolf's den before really scared Lewis, even if he had killed giants alone, but the instinctive fear of wolves made him gallop all the way, and at the same time he didn't dare to go all out, just to save some strength to deal with the beasts that might appear at any time.
After a night's work, Lewis, who could only walk at a speed for the second half of the journey, finally saw a port, where several ships were parked, and there were many crew members nearby, who seemed to be carrying something, it seemed that it should be some cargo ships.
At last he saw the crowd, and Lewis was overjoyed, and hurried over, for he was tired and hungry, and only thought of begging for something to eat and drink, and better to sleep well.
The workers also noticed Lewis coming, but they were not smiling like Bai, but they were all staring at him with unrecognizable faces, and a strange man, although he was dusty, but there was wind under his feet, and at first glance he was a great master of physical skills, which made everyone vigilant.
As Lewis got closer and closer, a worker ran towards a tall building by the dock, and it wasn't long before several samurai with long knives at their waists walked out, and Lewis was only about ten meters away from them.
"Stop!"
Just when Lewis was excited, a loud shout sounded in his ears, and then a man in sunglasses in a suit and leather shoes walked out of the tall building, this kind of outfit made Lewis feel a little unreal, in his impression, the Hokage should be a world of the Warring States period, and there will be no people in this modern costume.
"He won't take out a 28 big cover and tell me not to move. ”
Lewis, who never forgot to complain, was still making up some strange things in his mind in this situation, and the short man in sunglasses pulled his sunglasses down when he saw Lewis, and asked with some disdain, "Ronin?"
Seeing that those warriors had already held down the hilt of their swords, surrounding and guarding the dwarf, knowing that he should be the main master, Lewis, who was hungry, hurriedly nodded and flattered: "My name is Lewis, I am in a hurry to go to the land of fire, I don't know if there is a ship to go there to give me a ride, although I have no money, but I still have the strength to help you work to pay off your debts." ”
Seemingly satisfied with Lewis's attitude, the short man nodded, and just when Lewis thought he had met a nobleman, he suddenly waved his hand forward, and the moment he made a move, the two warriors beside him swept over like a swift wind, and the long knife at his waist was also unsheathed at the moment when the figure moved, and the left and right were attacked, one up and the other down, respectively, slashing at Lewis's throat and waist and abdomen.
The undisguised murderous aura woke Lewis up instantly, knowing that these guys were not joking, and he didn't have time to ask why, so he sank and jumped backwards hard, narrowly avoiding the two swords on his body.
As soon as he landed, he saw the two warriors put their swords into their sheaths and ran towards him again, just as they were about to approach him, the dazzling sword light appeared again, and they were already tired from the journey, and the old force had just exhausted the new strength, and it was too late for Lewis to dodge on a large scale as just now, so he wanted to learn to swim between the blades in martial arts novels, but he was dazzled by the reflection on the knife.
Subconsciously closed his eyes, Lewis could no longer see where the enemy was, a feeling of imminent death came from all directions, drilling into his every pore, under the survival instinct, with the flow of air cut by the knife light, Lewis stretched out his hands, one left and one right actually grasped the blade firmly in his hand.
"Good!"
Although he grabbed the blade, it still cut a long wound in the palm of his hand, and at this time, the dwarf also applauded, and realized that the knife in his hand had lost its strength, Lewis let go of his hands and took a few steps back, and the two warriors also cooperated to withdraw the long knife and retreat to the man in the suit.
"You're pretty skilled, are you interested in being my bodyguard?"
"In order to test my strength?" Facing the other party's solicitation, Lewis's brows furrowed deeply, fortunately he has some ability, if he was an ordinary person, I am afraid that he would have died in his hands at this time.
"I just want to go to the Land of Fire, and I'm not prepared to stay here for long. ”
With that, Lewis took another step back, ready to flee at any moment.
"Hahaha, you don't have to be nervous, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Cardo, I am the owner of a well-known shipping company, I can take you to the land of fire, but you have to accompany me to the country of waves first, if you can protect my safety on this way, not only to send you to your destination, but also a lot of money for you." ”
The man named Cardo also saw that Lewis was very sleepy, and his stomach was still screaming with hunger, in this case, he was able to take over the two joint efforts, and his strength was naturally not to be underestimated, of course, he had to be accepted as his subordinate, as long as he agreed to go on the road together, there were ways to control him.
After thinking for a while, feeling that he had no choice, Lewis nodded: "Yes, but I ......"
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Cardo: "Don't worry, you eat a lot, just rest after eating." After saying that, he turned sideways and made a gesture of please.
The other party was so observant that Lewis was no longer entangled and followed him to the tall building.
Since arriving in the God Realm, except for Jason's lunch at noon, he has never eaten delicious Lewis, and he has not the slightest politeness in the face of a table full of dishes, and devoured it with gusto, and his indecent appearance made Cardo nod frequently, and his eyes were full of greed.
Just after Lewis had eaten and drunk, Cardo clapped his hands, and a woman in revealing clothes walked in, with two glasses of bright red wine on the tray in her hand, only to see Cardo pinching the woman's buttocks fiercely, and then took out two small pills from his pocket and threw them into the two glasses of wine, then turned his head to look at Lewis: "After this glass of wine, our cooperation will officially begin." ”
After saying that, he picked up one of the cups and faced Lewis as if he was going to clink glasses, while the woman with the tray looked at the other with burning eyes, and her eyes were full of untold desires and desires.
"Is it drugs?"
At first, when I saw Cardo throw in pills, I thought he wanted to poison him to control him, but it was too blatant. Then he guessed something from the woman's hungry eyes, and hesitated for a moment.
Seeing that Lewis didn't move for a long time, Cardo didn't care, just a long laugh: "It's a pity." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, the woman grabbed the remaining glass of wine and drank it with her head up, in an impatient manner, like an evil ghost who had not eaten for three days.
With this inexplicable scene, Cardo laughed maniacally, and reached into the woman's shirt with one hand, and walked towards a side room with the other, and when the door closed, the warrior as a bodyguard withdrew his gaze and turned his gaze to Lewis, but it was all schadenfreude.
"It's drugs, and it's X-drugs. ”
Xiaomeng's words made Lewis suddenly realize, it seems that everyone who joins Cardo will enjoy this benefit, but it is not known whether it is a blessing or a curse, if he just drank that glass of wine, maybe he will become a dog with no bottom line.
"Regardless of him, I'll part ways with them as soon as I get to the Fire Nation anyway. ”
After answering the dream, Lewis went to rest in another room under the guidance of the other samurai, and he was also informed that the merchant ship would depart early tomorrow morning.
When Lewis fell into a deep sleep, Xiaomeng became melancholy, maybe he was used to being an honest person on the earth, even if he had strength, he was still trembling here, even in the face of a bastard who was obviously not a good thing, and he didn't have a temper, this performance made Xiaomeng a little dissatisfied, not only because Lewis's character is destined to have no wind and waves, and the road to growth will only be turbulent, but also because she doesn't like weak men.
"Is it good to be orderly? It's good, but it's too boring. ”
