Chapter 39: Chance Encounter
Three days later.
Like a refugee, Mullen led a black bald dog and an equally black little mouse to Stormwind City, the royal capital of the Raging Wind Kingdom.
Looking at the long queue at the city gate, Mullen's eyes slowly widened, this was the first time he had seen so many people, more than the market rally in the town before.
Xiao Hei asked Erha to gently touch Maren's calf and whispered, "Don't be stunned, line up." ”
Enter the tail of the long dragon and slowly move forward with the team.
After about 20 minutes, they came under the city gates.
A total of 10 soldiers were stationed at the city gates on the left and right sides, and there were many more soldiers on the city walls and behind the city gates, which was enough to ensure that even if there was a riot at the city gates, they would be quickly suppressed.
There was also a wide passage to the left of Xiao Hei's line, through which ornately decorated carriages passed from time to time, which was the exclusive passage for the great nobles to enter the city.
Seeing Mullen approaching, a soldier immediately approached.
"Do you have a certificate of residence or temporary residence?"
"Nope. ”
The soldier took out a pen and paper and began to ask questions and take notes.
"Name?"
"Mullen. ”
"What profession?"
"Hunter. ”
"What are you doing in Stormwind King?"
"Find a job. ”
"Are there any relatives in the city?"
"Nope. ”
....
After the soldiers asked more than ten questions, the soldiers collected the information completely, took a bronze medal and prepared to hand it to Malen: "This is a temporary residence permit, after paying the entrance fee, you can temporarily stay in Stormwind City for three days, and if you want to continue to live after three days, you need to continue to pay the money." ”
"How much?"
The soldier looked at Mullen, who was dressed in shabby animal skins, and hesitated: "10 copper coins." ”
Mullen nodded in understanding, but instead of paying the money, he began to take off his clothes.
"Wait, what are you going to do?" the soldiers who interrogated Malen exclaimed, and the soldiers around him immediately drew their sabers and surrounded them, thinking that they had encountered some unexpected situation.
Malen calmly took off his animal skin coat and handed it to the soldier: "The money is not enough, the clothes are enough." ”
"This ......" the soldier clearly did not experience anything like this, he hesitated.
The most important thing is that this coat is washed white, and it is worthless!
The people who were about to enter the city in the back saw that the team had not moved for a long time, and slowly made a fuss.
"Ahead, what are you doing? Hurry up!"
"I don't even have an entrance fee to the city, I still want to enter the city, and I want to use my clothes to arrive, today I can be regarded as a long insight. ”
"If you don't have money, get out, I'm a viscount, can you afford to delay my master's big business?"
Among the shouting crowd were many low-level nobles and gorgeous people, and the soldiers felt a little pressured in their hearts.
Pushing back the clothes handed over by Malen, the soldier shook his head with an embarrassed face: "We don't have this rule here, or you should go back first!"
Maren looked at Hei at his feet, hoping that Hei could give advice.
But now that there are so many people around, Xiao Hei can only remain silent.
Just as Mullen was about to turn to leave, the sound of the horses' hooves passing by, accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves.
The carriage stopped beside Mullen, and the curtain opened lightly, revealing the side face of a fair-skinned, handsome-looking aristocratic young man.
The aristocratic young man's eyes turned slightly, fell on Xiao Hei, and shrank slightly: "I paid the entrance fee for that young man." ”
Mullen turned his head and saw the curtain of the carriage falling.
The carriage moved on, followed by a large group of carts loaded with goods, followed by two well-equipped escorts.
A servant-like man in front of the carriage suddenly broke away from the group, walked to Mullen's side, and quietly took out a few silver coins to stuff them into the hands of the soldiers defending the city: "Take it and buy some wine for the brothers." ”
The soldier didn't know this servant, but he knew the motze on the servant's clothes, so naturally he didn't dare to take the money, and wanted to push the money back: "I can't take the young master's money." ”
"No, no, no, the brothers have worked hard, and this is what the brothers deserve. ”
Forcibly stuffing the silver coin into the soldier's hand, the servant glanced at Maren: "Keep up, the young master wants to see you." ”
Mullen didn't know what was going on, but Blackie could see something from the elk icon.
Following the carriage into the city, and after passing through a few bustling streets, Xiao Hei and the others came to the door of a bustling and beautifully decorated trading house.
The main business of this trading house is to sell gold and silver jewelry, and there are many little girls in it who choose their goods.
The aristocratic son, known as the young master, stepped on the ladder frame and got out of the carriage with the support of his servants.
This is a slender young man with a white robe and a handsome face.
He glanced at Xiao Hei, and then beckoned the people around him to send the goods to the Chamber of Commerce.
"You come with me. Although the young master was facing Ma Lun, his eyes were on Xiao Hei.
Looking back at the young man, the young master frowned: "Put on your clothes." ”
Ma Lun put the animal skin clothes on his body a few times, and followed the young master into the chamber of commerce with Erha.
Walk through the crowded vestibule and into the back hall.
The back hall is a large courtyard, and some servants are taking care of the flowers and plants in the courtyard, and when they saw the young master coming over, they immediately stopped their movements and bowed.
I came to a room in the back, and the servants around me helped push the door open.
Maren followed the young master into the room, and the servant exited the room and led the door with him.
With his hands behind his back, the young master slowly turned around, looking at Xiao Hei with an arrow-like gaze, as if he had pierced Xiao Hei's heart: "I know you, a mouse with magical abilities." ”
Xiao Hei didn't expect that this person called the young master would reveal the biggest secret in his heart as soon as he came, and said with a weak heart: "You... You must have listened to Hezhestus, right?"
A chuckle appeared on the corner of the young master's mouth: "York is right, you really can speak." ”
Speak?
The conversation between himself and Li Feng was overheard by York? They all deliberately avoided the crowd when they spoke.
Could it be that the old man is eavesdropping?
This is the only way to explain what this young master just said.
Unexpectedly, York, who seems to be honest on the surface, is actually an old man who is not ashamed, and will actually eavesdrop on others.
But fortunately, I asked a little more just now, otherwise if the name is said, God knows what kind of impact it will cause, and it may be impossible to say if someone is caught doing live experiments.
In order not to let the young master guess too much on the word magic, Xiao Hei took the initiative to divert the topic: "Where are they, York?
It was too hurried before, and there were many versions of the battle between Hezhestus and the Wolf Mercenary Regiment, and Xiao Hei didn't have time to distinguish the truth from the fake.
"No hurry, it's coming soon. The young master turned his head to look at Marlen, who was standing like a benchmark on the side: "Do you want to train him, and train him to be a genius like Approved Stos?"
Xiao Hei grunted in his heart, it should have come or come, and it sneered: "What are you talking about, I don't understand." ”
The young master stared at Xiao Hei from afar, and did not speak, and the air around him slowly solidified.
Xiao Hei raised his head and looked at the young master without admitting defeat, but somehow, his heart was beating faster and faster, and he inexplicably felt like he wanted to run away.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and a voice came from behind the door: "Young Master, Master York, they are here." ”
The young master withdrew his gaze from Xiao Hei's body: "Please let them in." ”
Xiao Hei instantly lost his strength as if he was about to be amnesty, and collapsed on top of Erha's head gasping for breath.
York walked in with the two guards he had seen before, followed by Hezhestus and Li Feng.
Hezhestus held the previous sword gate in his hand, thinking that the hilt of the Spirit Fox Sword had been completed.
The eyes of the two were as always, and they did not show the slightest anger because Xiao Hei abandoned them and ran away alone.
After all, the situation was in crisis at that time, and if it weren't for the sudden outbreak of Hezhestus, they would have been wiped out.
Li Feng understands this, and Hezhnestus can also see it.
