"Where is this so-called swamp?"

"The country of fire is located on the southwest edge of the country of fire, and Yancheng is the largest town in the entire southwest, the big swamp that the old man said is located at the junction of the country of fire and the country of boiling, because the mountain wall here is broken, the entire swamp is connected to the sea, so the terrain of the big swamp is very complicated, and it is impossible to deploy troops on a large scale, nor can it be a large-scale march. "www.biquge.info Xiao Qi walked ahead and whispered, "So the two vassal states representing the Land of Fire and the Land of Water have regarded this place as a natural dividing line, and both sides have only built a small city on the edge of their respective swamps to assert their sovereignty. ”

"It's as simple as that?"

"In fact, the two countries have only agreed in general terms: the center of the Everglades is the dividing line between the two countries." Xiao Qi turned his head and said with a smile, "But where this so-called 'central' is, no one knows, after all, this big swamp is too dangerous, compared to the junction of other places, although there is no way to transport goods on a large scale here, but it is a paradise for small underground activities, there are no tariffs here, and no one manages it, so the smuggling of various items is very rampant." ”

"Smuggling is so rampant, and the state doesn't care?"

"Hi, smuggling is rampant, but what is this place? This is the legendary Swamp! Legend has it that this was once an ancient country, with many unknown ruins, extremely dangerous terrain, unknown magical beasts, poisonous plants and insects, but these are not the most important, in this swamp, the most terrible thing is the terrible meadow and mire, as long as you step on it, you can never climb again! ”

"No wonder no one wants to do this task, just ten gold coins, it's really not very impressive." Wen Wen shook his head and said.

"yes, yes...... Otherwise, we won't do it? ”

"I've promised everyone, how can I not do it." Gently looked at Xiao Qi and said with a smile, "Don't worry, as long as you follow me, you won't encounter any danger!" ”

Although he didn't say it, Xiao Qi obviously didn't believe in gentle words.

"In that case, let's go to the small town on the edge of the swamp first, and if we can find a guide from there, I believe it will save us a lot of trouble." Wen Wen put away the map in his hand and said softly, "Let's go, let's go to this Juarez City first to have a look, and then make a plan for the next step...... Uh, what do you think? ”

"You've thought it all out, why are you still asking me." Although Xiao Qi was trying to hide the dissatisfaction in her heart, her action of holding her arms still couldn't escape her gentle eyes, "Even if I don't feel good...... There's no right to refute it. ”

"Let's go, then."

Since the road to Ciudad Juárez made several inexplicable turns, Wen Wen decided to take a shortcut and go straight through, saving a lot of time and avoiding some messy extraneous branches.

But what Wen Wen didn't expect was that they weren't the only ones who thought so, and besides, these "messy extraneous branches" were just as he thought.

The middle of nowhere was overgrown with weeds and the sun was a little impenetrable, and it was four o'clock in the afternoon, and in two more hours it would be completely dark.

Xiao Qi was gentle in front and behind, the two walked forward slowly, after passing through a thorn bush, more than a dozen people appeared on the side of the narrow path, Wen Wen originally thought that it was a large mercenary group to repair here, but soon, he found that things were not as simple as he thought.

"If you know each other, hurry up and hand over the core of that flintstone lizard, and we may spare your life!"

Before he got closer, a fierce voice floated along the breeze, and Wen Wen squinted his eyes and looked, only to see a man and a woman surrounded by a dozen samurai and magicians in different costumes, and the two people who were surrounded were obviously still very young, although Wen Wen was actually a few years old with them, but he would still treat them as children who had not dried up.

The young male samurai held the shield in his hand and looked at the people in front of him with a frown, while the female magician behind him held the magic staff in his arms with a nervous face.

"Ampere! You damn soul...... Don't you greedy wolf mercenary groups know what shame is and what shame is?! The male samurai said in a loud voice, "There are so many of you, you have hands and feet, you don't work, but you only think about stealing the fruits of other people's labor?!" ”

"Haha, boy, I'm telling you, that's the law of survival! The law of the jungle, the weak guy, that's the end! ”

"You...... You shameless guys! At this moment, the female magician behind the male samurai suddenly spoke up, "Are you embarrassed to do this?" ”

"I'm so embarrassed, I'm so embarrassed." Speaking of this, the bearded man named Ampere suddenly widened his eyes and shouted, "Less so much nonsense, if you want to get out of this canyon alive, hand over the flintstone lizard's magic core to the masters!" ”

"You...... Don't you think! ”

The bearded man in the lead is actually called Ampere, this funny homonym makes Wen Wen laugh a little, but at this time, Xiao Qi next to him suddenly reached out and grabbed him, only to see the petite girl with her head down, and actually wanted to sneak away from the wall behind the crowd.

Although Wen Wen was reluctant to cause trouble, he still couldn't tolerate this obvious bullying in front of him, and just when the two of them had just walked a few steps, a loud shout suddenly came from the crowd around them.

"You two, stop!"

Xiao Qi was taken aback by this roar, and immediately stood in place and didn't dare to make any extra movements, while the two big men who came over on the other side looked at the gentleness in front of him and said, "What did you two see?!" ”

"Greedy wolf masters...... We, we just passed by and didn't see anything! Xiao Qi seemed to know the horror of these people in front of him, and hurriedly lowered his head and said in a continuous voice, "We are just passing by, passing by!" ”

"Passing by? Pay the money! Two people, fifty gold coins per person, a total of one hundred, and we will let you go after handing it over, otherwise it will ......" Speaking of this, the man in front of him suddenly looked Xiao Qi up and down, and a lewd expression suddenly appeared on his face, "Haha, who did I think it was, isn't this the down-and-out eldest lady of the Hyuga family?" ”

"I ...... We don't have a hundred gold coins! ”

"None? That's great, as long as you're willing to have some fun with your brothers, we'll let you go! ”
