Chapter 62: Stealing Chickens Doesn't Make Rice
Early the next morning, the weather was a little better, and early in the morning, there were vendors carrying vegetables and fruits on the streets of the city. Because there are many people selling and the supply is abundant, the price is also quite cheap. The hawkers were afraid that they would not be able to sell the vegetables and fruits they had at hand, and the shouts resounded through the streets and streets. Residents in the city also take advantage of the low price of goods to sell, get up early and go to the street, the street is bustling, so lively.
Witt was a newcomer and was very interested in the big city of Riwache. Since he was born, Witt has grown up playing in Nisha piles, and has never seen much of the world. Seeing so many people at once, the little heart did not mention the excitement, which had not slept well all night last night, but did not feel tired, and wandered the streets in the company of Rum and Safin at dawn, while the others were in charge of the goods in the tavern.
A group of three people walked down the street, and when passers-by saw Rum Safin and his soldiers in soldier armor, they thought that Witt was a noble child, and they consciously made a way for Witt to pass. After all, the nobles in the city are all walking sideways in these years, and if the common people are accidentally bumped into by him, they may go to prison for a few years and then come out. It's just that the patrolmen would look at Witt a few times and not say much. Their task was to maintain order in the Riwacheze and to prevent riots caused by mob preaching on the streets. As long as Witt and his party don't cause trouble, the average patrol won't look for trouble.
When Witt circled the green brick path of Riwa Cheze twice, Rum suddenly stepped forward and whispered in Witt's ear: "Lord, those guys behind us are sneaky, and they have followed us all the way, and they probably have bad intentions." ”
Witt glanced behind him, and what Rum said was true, three strong men in leather armor were holding vegetables as if they didn't know anything. Witt wasn't sure that there were only three people on the other side, and maybe there were accomplices on the other side. So, Witt whispered to Safin, "You go back to the tavern first, leave three or two brothers to look at the box, and the others bring it, and see the alley in front of you, and then gather there." Safin glanced ahead, and there was indeed an alley on the left side of the street, nodded and disappeared into the crowd.
Witt and Rum stood in front of the vendor of gadgets and utensils on the side of the street, pretending to be casual and picking up all kinds of loose plays, and occasionally casting their eyes on a few sneaky people not far away. After Safin had been away for a long time, Witt turned and walked towards the front of the street. The strong men behind him saw Witt moving away, so they glanced at each other, and then followed.
But who knows, in the blink of an eye, the two of Witrum disappeared at the mouth of the alley of the street in front, and the strong men were in a hurry, and they didn't care about the others, so they immediately caught up and made a detour into the depths of the alley. When they stopped at the corner of a small alley in the alley, they collided with the two Witrum couple face to face.
Witt looked at the six strong men in leather armor and one-handed swords at his waist in front of him, it seemed that it was a clear decision to let Safin go back just now, and then said in a mocking tone: "The brothers have been following for so long, are they also tired?" ”
The strong men glanced at each other, and then a middle-aged man with a bearded face stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "It seems that you have already discovered us, and it is really not a taste to be played by a little hairy child." But even if you're dying, you're not afraid of your jokes. But I really admire your courage to run into this dead end by yourself. Here, no one will find out about the death of one or two outsiders, and no one will care, at most throw them outside the city to feed the beasts. With that, the man burst into laughter with the brothers around him.
Witt frowned, it seems that the gang in front of him is really a robber, but Witt still wants to make sure that the other party still has a backstage, and then asked: "There are so many people going back and forth on the street, some of them are children of rich families, you can't just go around the street and keep an eye on us, right?" Presumably, the people in the back are the main ones! ”
As soon as the robber heard Witt mention the person behind him, he immediately subconsciously looked back, but there was still no one behind him, and only then did he understand what Witt meant. The leader of the robbers replied, "Since you are all dying, it doesn't hurt to tell you." Yes, we have been eyeing you since last night, and the moment you entered the tavern, it was destined that today would be the end of your life. ”
Witt was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand, but it was certain that the bandits must have been in ambush in the tavern for a long time, and they were targeting the lone travelers staying in the tavern. In order to find out the instigator behind it, Witt deliberately said: "Seeing that you plan so carefully and have such a strong purpose, presumably the instigator behind you is not a fuel-efficient lamp!" ”
The leader of the robbers was really fooled, and immediately said proudly: "Our leader has a backstage in this area of the city, think about it, you two talked to each other last night!" But the dying man, why should he know so much, waste his tongue! The robber sneered, then drew his one-handed sword and was about to make a move.
"Slow down, brother!" Witt said bluntly.
"What? Want to beg for mercy? No way, I've done so many business, and no one will get under my sword or walk out! The robber said stiffly.
"Look back." Witt said in a flat tone.
"You want to trick me into turning back so I can escape, right? I've seen a lot of this trick. I've already been tricked by you once, and I won't be fooled again this time. The robber thought he was smart, but he knew that when the two sides were talking, Safin had already brought more than a dozen cottage guards to the agreed alley according to Witt's instructions, and was quietly standing behind the robbers at this moment, forming a situation of encirclement against him.
Witt didn't ink with him, just smiled and didn't say anything, and looked at them with staring eyes. The robber in charge saw that Witt was very calm, and his heart began to panic a little, but he insisted on not letting go and looking back, until the robber next to him pulled the corner of his clothes and said in a panic: "Chief, we are surrounded!" ”
The robber was not convinced at first, but when he turned his head, his feet immediately became weak, and he almost fell to his knees. A row of cottage guards, all armed with spears and wooden shields, looked like caravan guards staring straight at him.
After being stunned for a moment, the robber immediately turned to Witt and said, "This brother ......"
"Brother, is that your name?" Rum immediately shouted, and at the same time drew his two-handed sword, and the silver armor clanged, causing the robbers to shiver.
"The adults spare their lives, the little ones should be damned, just a joke with you, you adults don't care about the villain, just spare your brother's life!" After saying that, they all knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
