Ignite the silver charcoal, plug in the soft leather tube, and the ice bead spring water in the cigarette bottle makes a soft "gurgling" sound.

Gordon took a small puff of hookah and exhaled slowly. Colorful smoke wafted out and condensed in the air into the shape of various melons and fruits, some faintly revealing the contours of the nose, eyes, ears and other facial contours.

"These fruits are about to become fine?" Gordon said in surprise. As the growing years get longer and longer, the exotic flowers and fruits will slowly develop spirituality, and eventually complete their evolution and become the flower and fruit essence of the essence.

Flower and fruit extract is the best nourishing treasure, with all kinds of miraculous effects. They can be used as medicine all over their bodies, which can not only cure incurable diseases, but also directly improve the physique and source power of cultivators, and any flower and fruit essence is comparable to a diamond-level treasure.

Most of the flower and fruit essence live in inaccessible places such as deep mountains and old forests, swamps and seabeds, hiding in Tibet, and dare not show their heads. Beasts, monsters, and humans are their natural enemies, and even many spirits will prey on them.

"When they first got this batch of goods, they had already given birth to a complete spirituality, and they could become sperm after more than ten years of good cultivation. It's a pity that I accidentally leaked the news and was targeted by a big nobleman. Roshan sat on the carpet, broke a precious white jade melon with his big hand, and took a bite hard, and the juice splashed his beard. Any idea what I did? I killed them all. I tore off their roots and watched them struggle and cry in the boiling water. They never had a chance to transform into essences, and the great nobles naturally lost interest. Doesn't that sound stupid? If I were willing to resell, the aristocrat would have offered me a good price, which would not be too fair, but it would be enough for me to make a small profit and have a chance to catch up with this new and prominent customer. ”

"It's a sign that you're special." Gordon held the soft leather tube in his hand, slowly swallowing the clouds and exhaling the mist. The medicinal power of the strange fruit did not stop dissipating, permeating the lungs, the spirit was lifted, and there was a comfortable cool feeling from the wound.

Roshan casually threw away the white jade melon that he had bitten into, and said with a cruel smile: "What I don't want to give, I'd rather destroy it than let it fall into the hands of others." If we have the opportunity to work together in the future, you have to keep that in mind. ”

"I remember." Gordon said, "I don't know what Your Excellency is called?" ”

Roshan said: "My friends all call me Meat Master." ”

"What do you know about the Storm Horse Thieves?"

"A little bit more than you know. Their nest must be in the Lost Desert, and there are several stolen goods dens in Crescent City, and the herb shop you have been to is one of them. The sheriffs, judges, and wardens of the Sand Fox tribe were all bribed by them, and the chieftain Sand Fox and the nobles turned a blind eye to this. Because the horse thieves only robbed the merchants, the nobles' caravans were not only safe and sound, but also benefited from it. ”

"You didn't give us the information you gave to the Assassin Order?"

"Hehe, I paid a lot of money, why should I save you effort?"

Gordon seemed to say casually: "Come to me directly in the future and give you a discount." Who were you looking for? ”

The meat master glanced at Gordon deeply and said, "I found your organization through a friend of TongguΓ². There's a bar in Blackoil called Sleepless Nights, where your guys take business. ”

Gordon then avoided the topic: "What weaknesses does Chief Sand Fox have?" "What should the Black Hawk tribe outside the city pay attention to?" "What is the level of the strongest martial artist in this area?"

Gordon kept asking, and learned a lot of inside stories about Crescent City and the Land of Sand from the meat master's mouth. This black marketeer has a wide range of contacts and business throughout the Capricorn domain. He seemed rude and reckless, but he knew how to take care of what he shouldn't say, and Gordon wanted to squeeze a word out of his teeth.

"Why don't you keep asking Ye Sailu about it?" The meat master shook the flask in his hand and stared at Gordon with burning eyes.

Gordon said calmly: "That woman is too dangerous, I'd better not know about her, and you don't have to sue me." ”

The meat master glared at Gordon and laughed violently: "You will definitely be more dangerous than her in the future." I've dealt with a lot of cunning guys, but I've rarely met anyone as tough as you. To be honest, I am quite optimistic about you and would like to make you a friend. He stood up, walked over to Gordon, leaned over and spread his arms.

This is the etiquette when friends in the land of sand meet, Gordon also opened his arms, held the left shoulder of the meat master with his right hand, hugged his waist with his left, and saluted each other.

When Shanna came back, she happened to see the warm scene between the two sides, and couldn't help but smile. She was followed by several guards, each carrying a large bag and full of medicines.

The meat master deliberately showed a painful expression: "No wonder it took you so long to come back, it turned out that my secret vault was emptied." ”

Shanna glanced at Gordon with a charming face, and said softly: "I ran into a little trouble when I came back, just now, the whole city was under martial law. ”

Gordon and the meat master were stunned together, Gordon got up and walked to the balcony, looking into the distance. In the midst of the greenery and flowers, the light of the fire loomed, and groups of heavily armed soldiers6 continued to appear in the streets of the garden district, patrolling and standing guard, blocking all the entrances and exits.

Could it be that freckles are making things bigger? Gordon fell into deep thought.

For more than a week after that, Gordon recuperated in Shanna's boudoir. The meat master also took out a lot of money, and all kinds of precious healing potions were sent over in a steady stream, coupled with the medicinal effect of the hookah and Shanna's meticulous care, Gordon's injuries recovered more than half.

However, the whole Crescent City has become a rumor. Martial law continued, day and night, all the main roads were guarded by soldiers, patrolled repeatedly, and no one was allowed to leave the city. The strangers were taken away one by one for interrogation, and they were temporarily safe unless they were guaranteed by the locals.

"There is a curfew in the whole city now, except for the nobles, no one else can go out at night." Shanna helps Gordon change the bandages while telling him about the situation in the city. "Several out-of-town businessmen clamored to leave, only to be sent to prison by Chief Sand Fox on charges of colluding with horse thieves."

"I'm afraid I won't be able to stay here for long." Gordon's eyes drooped, and Shanna's fingers lifted the gauze and brushed it gently across his bare lower abdomen, the fingertips delicate and fiery.

"Why?" Shanna's fingertips slid down slightly, touching his inner thighs. Without a trace, Gordon clasped his legs together and caught the widow's fingers, allowing them to slide deeper.

It's a tacit little game between the two. These days, Shanna has already been teased by Gordon, obeying him, and running around for him.

Gordon suddenly sat up from the bed, and the guard's hurried voice came from outside the door: "Lady Shanna, the soldiers of the tribe are coming in and raiding, and the entire garden area is blocked. ”
