Volume 2 Chaos Chapter 82 Travel to Butnia
"Stop!" A guard, dressed as the obvious captain, shouted, "What for? ”
I stepped forward, bent my head and said with a smile: "This official, I am a businessman from Qatar. ”
The guard squinted his face and asked, "Merchant?" What merchants? ”
I stretched out my right hand, made a gesture of please, and blinked my eyes, gave him a hint, and whispered:
"Official, please move here and speak."
He understood, with a hint of joy on his face, and followed me a few steps away from the crowd.
I looked around to make sure that no one around me could hear the talk, and no one was paying attention to this side, so I lowered my voice and said:
"Official, I'm in the tobacco business."
"Tobacco business?" The captain of the guard was a little surprised, and said, "That's a very profitable business." ”
"It's okay, it's okay. Isn't this the first time I've gone to Butenia to buy goods, and I don't have enough experience. However, before going out, my father explained that the officials and brothers who guarded the city were all conscientious and dedicated to their duties for the safety of the people, so the little ones had to express their hearts to the officials no matter what. ”
As I spoke, I took out a few gold coins from my bosom, quietly stuffed them into the hand of the captain of the guard, and continued:
"You see, the official has worked hard to guard the city gate, this is a small little heart, give the brothers a cup of tea, and ask the official not to dislike it."
The captain of the guard looked around, and saw that no one was paying attention to this side, so he put the gold coin in his arms, and said with a smile:
"Although it is the first time to buy goods, I am quite sensible, yes, young and promising, and the future is limitless."
"Thank you for the compliment. That, my father also said that as an excellent businessman, you must not only understand the market, but also know more about current events. So, I recently heard that there have been two battles in the avant-garde city, but I don't know that now Black Mor and Buteniaan are not safe, but I am afraid that under the chaos of the army, we have not been able to make money, but have lost our lives. ”
The Captain of the Guard reminded:
"That's right. However, the avant-garde city is a little far away from here, so I don't think the war will spread here so quickly, and the soldiers and horses in the city are abundant, and with the support of Lord MiG, the city is safe. Butnia has already declared its neutrality, and it is safe not to participate in this war. But the Qatari side should be careful. ”
"Thank you for the reminder." With that, I pulled out a few gold coins again and stuffed them into his hand.
He obviously didn't expect me to give him the gold coin, and after taking the gold coin into his arms, he stretched out his right hand and patted me on the shoulder, and said:
"The little brother is so generous, and the eldest brother will remind him one more time."
I replied respectfully, "There's Brother Lao." ”
The captain of the guard nodded, and said: "I heard that Lord MiG has asked the city lord to send troops to cooperate, and soon Black Mor will send troops to the avant-garde city, when the garrison in the city is reduced, the city gate will be closed, and no one will be allowed to enter or leave." So the little brother has to buy the goods as soon as possible and then return, otherwise he will be trapped in the city for a while. ”
"Huh?!" I exclaimed in a low voice, I was indeed a little surprised in my heart, and at the same time I deliberately showed it, and then said with a grateful face: "Thank you for the guidance of the eldest brother, but I don't know when the city gate will be closed, so that the younger brother can be mentally prepared, and he can calculate the time to go out of the city." ”
He shook his head and said helplessly:
"This question, eldest brother can't help you answer it, it's related to the time of dispatching troops, and it's not information that I, the little captain of the guard, can know."
"It's okay, it's okay," I said quickly, "The eldest brother has been of great help to the younger brother, and learning that the city gate will be closed is already an important reminder to the younger brother." Thank you, little brother. ”
The captain of the guard waved his hand and said:
"This little thing is not enough to worry about, the little brother should go into the city as soon as possible, buy the goods that should be done, and then hurry up and go out of the city."
"Eh, good, good."
Then, the captain of the guard raised his right hand and let the guard let him go.
After entering the city, I wrote a letter, sealed it in an envelope, and led the people directly to the south gate and out of the city.
When he left the city, he basically did not need to check, and left the city of Black Mor without hindrance, and then rushed to Butnia.
When we arrived at the gates of Butnia, the guards here were much stricter than those of Hemore, and almost everyone who entered and left the city was carefully questioned before being allowed to enter.
In front of the magnificent city gates, the people entering the city lined up in a long queue and slowly advanced.
After about ten minutes, I don't know how long it will take our turn to see how fast it will take, and I'm already a little impatient.
More critically, I heard the defenders ask at least four questions to everyone who entered the city:
"Who are you? Where did it come from? What to do in town? How long do you want to stay? ”
It's better to hand over the messenger soldiers directly to the city lord.
And I took the people straight out of the procession that had entered the city, and went to the gate of the city.
Along the way, many people in the procession looked at us, and some even whispered something, which I couldn't hear clearly, and it was probably nothing more than something like: "What are those people, they didn't line up and walked directly to the city gate." "That's it.
When we were almost there, a captain of soldiers at the gate noticed us, and came to us with two soldiers, shouting:
"Who are you, why don't you line up?"
I took the letter from my bosom and handed it to the captain of the soldiers.
"Please give this letter to your lord."
He glanced behind me, muttered for a moment, handed the letter to one of the soldiers, and whispered something to him.
The soldier took the letter and hurried into the city.
After the soldier left, the captain of the soldier threw his fist at me and said:
"Presumably, a few of them must have extraordinary status, but as a guard at the city gate, I can't let you in easily, so please wait here."
"Okay." I nodded slightly.
About twenty minutes later, a procession of twenty or so people came out of the city gates. The first person rode a high-headed horse, with red phoenix eyes, lying silkworm eyebrows, and a good face, he was a very handsome young man, he was dressed in green clothes, and a sword was worn at his waist. Although the more than 20 people behind him were not wearing military uniforms, they were all strong and healthy, and their faces were expressionless, and they seemed to know that they were a group of soldiers.
The young man passed us with the crowd in his face, a hint of pride on his face.
Originally, we didn't know each other, and there probably wouldn't be any intersection when we passed by, but when the young man's eyes noticed Liya, his eyes suddenly widened.
"What a lovely girl!"
He praised it, then dismounted and walked slowly in front of Liya, glanced at the spring flowers and autumn moon beside Liya, shook his head lightly, and sighed:
"It's also four beauties, but it's unlucky to have a straight face."
At this time, Chunhua Qiuyue already held the saber in his hand, and the other ten elite soldiers had already carried the saber with him since they left Black Moor City. But the young man didn't know whether he was relying on his large number of people or what, and he ignored the swords in everyone's hands, and even raised his right hand to touch Liya's face.
"Bang dang!"
The sword flashed, and the long sword in Koharu's hand was already unsheathed, and the sword was cut horizontally.
The young man's hand was halfway stretched out and hurriedly withdrawn, although the wrist was not cut off, but a thin line was still cut on the wrist, and bright red blood beads oozed from the wound site.
The young man frowned and said:
"What a fast sword."
Obviously, he had expected Koharu to draw a sword, but he didn't expect Koharu's sword to be so fast.
In fact, as early as before leaving, I told Chunhua Qiuyue not to kill people and cause trouble on the premise of protecting Haoliya, after all, we came here for an important purpose. Otherwise, the young man would have died.
I watched him walk towards him, he had already seen how powerful Koharu was, and I hoped that he would retreat and leave quickly.
I don't know if I felt my gaze, but the young man turned his head to look at me, tilted his head to look at me, and then shouted to his entourage:
"Take it back."
"Boom, boom!"
The swords of both sides were unsheathed one after another, and a fierce fight was about to begin, when suddenly a loud shout came.
"Stop!"
Looking towards the source of the sound, it was the captain of the soldiers who had arrived with a team of men.
The captain of the soldiers first glanced at the young man's wrist, then folded his fist and said:
"Childe, don't make trouble in Butnia."
Son?
It seems that the captain of the soldiers knows this young man, but he doesn't know what kind of son he is.
I saw that the young man who was called Gongzi had an arrogant face, and said slowly:
"This is outside the city, not inside the city of Butenia, so this is none of your business."
I looked at the young man and asked:
"Childe? What Childe? ”
The young man glanced at me and ignored me. An attendant beside him shouted:
"My son-in-law's father is the lord of Black Mor City, even if it is the lord of Rex City, he will give my son-in-law three points of thin noodles."
"Oh? Why? ”
I really don't understand why the city of Rex in Butnia is mainly giving three thin noodles to the son of the lord of the city of Hemore.
The attendant arrogantly said:
"We have 50,000 elite soldiers in Black Mor City, while Butnia only has 30,000 old and weak soldiers, of course ......"
"Shut up!"
The young man squinted his eyes and interrupted his retinue with a low shout.
I glanced at the Captain of the Soldier and saw that his expression was unnatural.
Thinking about it, the city where I am is said to be so unbearable by an entourage is bound to be a little angry, but because the young man is in front of him, it is not easy to attack.
"Is he really the son of the lord of Black Mor?" I confirmed with the attendant.
"Of course."
"Thank you!" I thanked him.
The young man's face once again showed a haughty look, and he said:
"Now that you know who I am......"
Before he could finish speaking, I stepped out with my right hand and grabbed him by the neck before everyone could react.
"Hmm...... Hmmm......"
He wanted to speak, but his throat was stuck, and he could only make a faint muffled sound.
The attendant shouted: "Let go of my son-in-law!" ”
More than twenty swords pointed at me, and at the same time, a voice came from behind me:
"This ...... Please don't make trouble here. ”
It was the captain of the soldiers who were guarding the gates.
The attendant hurriedly whispered something in the ear of a young man, who was about to run in the direction of Black Mor City.
"Don't let anyone go!" I let out a loud shout, and ten of my men blocked my way.
