Murong Tao noticed a woman among the slave crowd, saying that she was a woman, mainly judging by the size of the bulge on her chest, these slaves in Africa or the New World had dark skin and no features, the difference was in their hair ornaments and the ornaments they wore on their chests.

The carriage stopped in front of the tavern, and Melody followed Murong Tao into the tavern, and the coachman drove the carriage out of the tavern.

"Oh, you're back, why didn't Bayard come back with him?" Captain Franks looked up in surprise, "Hey, this little kid, oh, why are you here too?" It's still some time before lunch, or Rudy you can take him around! ”

"Where's Marcus?" Murong Tao glanced around and asked, "Tell him to prepare a poor child's outfit for me, we are going to the slums!" ”

"What do you say? You're going to take him to the slums? Even if Franks doesn't know the true identity of the young man in front of him, he can roughly guess that he is either rich or expensive, and he can follow the Duke of Loire, and he is cared for by the Duke in every detail, and he is not an ordinary person, although the Duke admits that this is the heir of his family, but there is obviously a deeper identity.

"I'm here, why do I go to the slums now?" Marcus walked in from the backyard, covered in dust, "According to you, I have already found some news, and I happened to be looking for you, but you went to the Governor's Palace, what?" This kid, oh, why is he here again? ”

"Find him normal clothes, and I say I'm going to take him to the slums." Murong Tao's words shocked Marcus, pulled Murong Tao to the side, and asked in a low voice, "Are you crazy?" You know what kind of mixed religion and nine streams are there, and you dare to take this little nobleman with you, if something goes wrong, should we continue to stay in Cherbourg Harbor? ”

"Don't worry, I'll watch him. Do it! Murong Tao nodded and said, turning his head and looking at Melody, "I saw that you didn't eat much just now, do you want to eat something here first?" Wait there, I'm afraid there's nothing to entertain you! ”

McLeddy nodded, and sat down at the bar, where Captain Franks poured him a cup of goat's milk, and then asked the kitchen apprentice to bring in a pot of signature dishes, and the little one was in a good mood, and a large pot of signature dishes was swept away by a third of the way.

It didn't take long for Marcus to have two more sets of clothes in his hand, and he glanced at Murong Tao, who leaned into Melody and whispered a few words, and the little guy put down the napkin and followed the two to a utility room in the backyard.

"Hurry up and change your clothes and come out, the carriage is ready!" Marcus said and walked out first.

Melody glanced at the somewhat shabby clothes, and directly began to take off the gorgeous clothes, and didn't care if there was a strange smell on the shabby clothes, so he put them on directly.

"Oh, it fits perfectly." Murong Tao was like a big brother and touched up Melody, "Your face is too clean, this is a piece of soot, put on your own makeup, right?" You don't have to make your whole face cover, just put a little embellishment on your nose and chin. ”

As he spoke, he put on some makeup, and then took Melody's hand and walked out of the utility room.

The so-called carriage is actually open, in fact, it is a wooden cart, Marcus has already sat down, and when he saw the two of them coming up, he drove the wooden cart to the south of the city.

"Don't look and ask too much when you get to the place, it's very xenophobic, just like those nobles don't like slums." Marcus's words seemed to remind the two of them, more like a warning to Melody, Melody nodded obediently, and then became curious about the scenery on the street like an ordinary child, looking this way, looking that way, and standing up and shouting loudly.

Marcus shook his head, feeling that his warning was useless, just driving the plank car intently.

After driving for more than half an hour, I came to the barren area south of the city, where there was a disgusting stench of beggars begging along the streets except for the alleys like cobwebs, and although you could see scattered shops, there was hardly anything for sale except taverns and some handicrafts.

"We're here." After Marcus stabilized the wooden cart, Murong Tao got out of the car with Melody in his arms, looking around at the harsh living conditions around him, which was still too far from what he imagined.

"Welcome to the Slums!" Marcus spread his hands and said a cold joke, but Murong Tao couldn't laugh at all.

"This is where you used to live?" Melody couldn't help but ask, obviously this "you" also includes Murong Tao.

"Yes, I've lived here since I was very young, and my father was once a slightly famous sailor, but once he went to sea and never came back." Marcus sighed and said, "After sending off my depressed mother a few years ago, it was just me and my daughter Martha living here. ”

"What is Martha doing today? I haven't seen her for a day! Murong Tao remembered the only female friend in the past three months, and asked curiously, "It seems that I haven't seen her since the last time I saw her with Sister Mary." ”

"You don't know? This girl is not even hiding it from you? "She seems to have followed Sister Mary to St. Nicholas's Church, in Port Pavrel, and this little girl is going out for the first time, I thought you would know." ”

"Uh, what is she doing with that woman in Bavrear?" Murong Tao thought of Sister Mary, who was hostile to him, and he was a little worried about Martha, "I haven't seen her since that day, I always thought she would come to the tavern, but I've been busy with this and that recently, but I ignored it." ”

Marcus breathed a sigh of relief, in his opinion, not mixing with the kid in front of him would be good for his daughter.

"By the way, who are you looking for when you suddenly came here?" As a native of the slums, Marcus is naturally willing to be this tour guide, "Don't look at the small place here, the alleys inside are intricate, and you will get lost if you are not careful." There are three sects and nine streams of people here, so it's better for you to follow me. ”

Murong Tao handed the piece of paper in his pocket to Marcus, Marcus just glanced at it, and looked at Murong Tao in disbelief, "They took the initiative to find you?" Although they are not good people, they really haven't done anything bad about the slums, and I know a few of their key members. ”

"That's a good feeling, it's easy to get to know people!" Murong Tao said with a smile, "I also accidentally found their contact person in the city, and I am going to negotiate a deal with them." ”

"Well, they are good at gathering intelligence, and the fees are not expensive." Marcus seems to have a lot of respect for this mysterious organization, "But you have to pay attention to the way you speak, many of them come from the lowest level of society, and sometimes they will be provoked to repeat if you are not careful, wait for the past, you tell me the specific matters you want to talk about, and I will talk to them!" ”

After following Marcus through a few winding alleys, Murong Tao couldn't remember the location of the road he came from, it seemed that if there were no aborigines to lead the way, it would be really easy to get lost.

"McLeddy, where are you going?" Turning around, Murong Tao, who wanted to say a few words to Melody, suddenly found Melody rushing towards the alley on the other side, and hurriedly called Marcus who led the way, and the two followed, turning a few corners, fortunately, there was only one road here, and saw Melody was blocking a girl with his hands outstretched, and in front of him were several slightly older young people, Murong Tao held his forehead, this is a bloody hero to save the beauty!

"Little bunny, do you know who we are? Dare to meddle with the affairs of our wolf mercenary group, I think you are impatient! The men in leather armor still threatened Melody when he looked like a 7 or 8-year-old child, and at the same time he found that the girl Melody was protecting with all his heart was full of horror, and he couldn't stop curling up behind Melody, pulling McLody's clothes tightly with both hands, so pitiful.

"Hey, why are you wolf cubs looking for trouble in the slums again?" Apparently Marcus knew each other, and yelled at the young man who spoke, "I remember telling you last time, right? The next time I meet it, it's not as soft as last time, obviously you are all people who can't remember the pain! ”

"It's Marcus!"

"Marcus, let's run!"

"However, if this little girl is brought back and cultivated for a few years, she must be a beautiful embryo, and she can be sold for a lot of money!"

"What are you eggies afraid of?" The young man who threatened before glanced at Marcus and Murong Tao with disdain, "Last time, we were few people, and we were recognized by Marcus. There are more than a dozen of us today, would we still be afraid of the two of them? Is the dagger on your waist used to bluff people? ”

was reminded by the young man who was the leader, and his originally somewhat scattered heart calmed down, there were so many people on his side, everyone brought weapons, and Marcus looked like he was a sword, and the young man next to him looked defenseless, and a dozen daggers were still cowering in the face of a sword, and there was really no need to mix in Cherbourg Harbor in the future.

"Old fellow, there's nothing to do with you here, we just need to take these two little guys, if you dare to mess around, we don't mind sending you to God!" The young man at the head sneered.

"Chirp", I saw a black shadow rushing straight to the door of the young man at the head, and the next moment, the young man at the head fell to the ground with soft eyes, and an angular gravel appeared at the center of his eyebrows, and blood was constantly gushing out along the wound.
