Chapter 1848: Instigation
"The result?" I asked in a low voice.
When the representative heard my words, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said with a little disappointment: "No victory, no defeat." ”
His answer immediately aroused my interest: "Undefeated or undefeated?" What is the result? ”
There was no opportunity to show off the heroic posture of the ancestors, and the representative seemed a little excited, but he replied to me hastily: "The piper fled, and he was nowhere to be found, and the ancestors and others also retreated, so they were neither victorious nor defeated." ”
Glancing at the reps who had returned to the group, I chuckled and continued in the direction I had come.
Once raw and twice cooked.
With the experience of the previous trip, it is much easier to walk down the sewer.
Out of the sewer mouth, it is a garbage collection point outside the city, and the garbage does not accumulate much, but the smell is far more domineering than the garbage mountain in the city.
None of us spoke, and continued to walk with our heads down, and after walking three or five hundred meters, there was finally not much smell left, and only then did we gasp a few times and exhale the turbid air in our lungs.
Boss Wren walked over briskly and asked, "What's next?" ”
"Let's go to Lincheng for a night's rest, and tomorrow morning, we will leave in a magic airship."
Boss Wren nodded, and walked quickly in the direction of the city.
Rij City is the city of Eri.
Unlike the prosperity of Ari City, Ledger City is extremely deserted in terms of economy, education, agriculture, industry, and adventurers' trades.
Its only well-known point is that it is the city of the national capital.
In such an underappreciated town, the income of all walks of life is also very meager, including the adventurers who guard the city gates.
In Riger City, the adventurers who guard the gates are not very popular, not because of their profession, but because of their own reasons.
The meager salary earned by guarding the city gates can barely make ends meet, which is really the cruelest reality for these adventurers with great ambitions and dreams of making a fortune.
In order to get closer to their dreams, they even made it difficult for merchants who entered the city, civilians who visited relatives, or adventurers who were not of high rank.
Just to get an extra drink money.
I'm not disgusted by people who value money so much, because I have enough money to buy them.
And the boss of Rennes, who led the way into the city, was my pawn, and the purpose was to bargain and set the capitation fee for entering the city within an acceptable range.
After driving for several miles, in the distance, I saw the magic stone lamp lit up at the gate of Richter, and the boss of Rennes who was chatting and laughing with the gate guards.
Approaching with the crowd, the two guards guarding the city glanced at the procession like a long dragon, and their smiling eyes and eyebrows were clenched.
"That's a lot of people," one of the guards said to Boss Wren with a smile.
"There are two of them," said Boss Wren.
"It's easy to say," another guard said with a smile: "Looking for relatives and friends, it's normal for people to be like, our brothers are not mean people, and we can't stop this kind of human affection." ”
He said this, but he refused to open the door.
Boss Wren groaned slightly, then took out a palm-sized bag from his arms, stuffed it into the guard's pocket unconsciously, and flattered: "That's right, that's right, this little money is a little bit of meaning for me to invite the two of you to drink to warm up, and I hope the two of you don't dislike it." ”
Seeing this, the two guards exchanged glances, and then they opened the gate and let us in.
After entering the city, I said to Boss Rennes: "When you go back, you report the total cost of this trip to me, and I will make it up for you." ”
"It's not necessary," said Boss Wren, "it's just a little money." ”
"Big money and small money are all money, you are my person now, and you are doing my business, how can you make you pay for it."
Seeing that he couldn't resist me, Boss Wren had to nod.
After that, I kept some of the people who were related to the descendants of the legendary heroes of Riger City, and handed over the others to Boss Rennes, who assigned them a place to stay.
Under their guidance, I visited more than a dozen descendants of legendary heroes in succession, and asked them to find a way to contact other descendants of legendary heroes in Rijie City, and on the grounds of emergency, I gathered them in one place, and the location was set as a small square in Rijie City, which had been abandoned for a long time.
Because it is a matter closely related to the vital interests of the descendants of the legendary heroes, all the descendants of the legendary heroes in the city of Ledger gathered in the small square in a very short time.
I really didn't expect that the number of descendants of the legendary heroes in Riger City would be more than ten times more than that of Eri City, and this is only the representatives of each family, if you count the other members of the family, there are two thousand.
In the face of the hundreds of representatives of the descendants of the legendary heroes, I was a little worried, for fear that the hundred people who suddenly gathered here would arouse the vigilance of the City Lord's Mansion.
One of my nearest representatives comforted me: "You don't need to worry about this at all, there is no nightlife in Richter, at this time, almost all the residents have gone home to rest, no one will be idle and have nothing to do to hang out, and you don't need to worry about the city guards, those guys are idle to death on weekdays, and they can't get much salary, it's strange that they are willing to work, it is estimated that except for the guards of the city gates, the other city guards have long gone home to sleep." ”
I frowned when I heard this: "Such blatant dereliction of duty? Aren't you afraid that the city lord will blame them? ”
The man smiled: "The city lord is lazier than them." ”
Oh, it turned out that the upper beam was not right and the lower beam was crooked.
The representative's words were like a reassuring pill, calming my nervous heart.
After showing the orc king's handwritten decree to everyone, and after identifying and confirming that it was true, one of the older representatives suddenly burst into tears, and he wiped his tears while saying: "God has mercy on me, and finally in my lifetime, I will meet the Ming Jun who is willing to rehabilitate us!" ”
As he spoke, he strode over, grabbed my sleeve, and said urgently, "When are we leaving?" ”
I was afraid that his snot would rub on my clothes, so I struggled, but unexpectedly, I didn't break away.
Suddenly, my expression was awe-inspiring, and I didn't dare to underestimate the old man anymore, so I comforted him: "Old man, don't worry, it's too late today, and we are scheduled to leave tomorrow." ”
"Leaving tomorrow?" The old man touched his eyes blurred by tears, and said, "Okay, let's go tomorrow, for this day, I have waited for more than 70 years, and it is not bad for this night." ”
The relationship is a seventy-year-old grandfather.
After persuading the old man, I said to everyone present: "This time, I am not only to receive the fallen legendary hero families in the two towns of Ari City and Rijie City, but also to expand the scope to the entire Ari City, I hope that all the neglected and oppressed hero families can be re-awarded glory and carried forward, so that all people can admire and sing for all generations." ”
