Chapter 442: Maid Jill (167)
Xiongshan City, on the surface, is a bustling city, it is no less prosperous than any inland city of the Kingdom of Bari, and even in some ways, it can provide far more enjoyment than other cities, provided that you have the money and the ability to keep it, because for this crime city, killing and slavery are always shadows under the light and can never disappear.
Jill and Xueshi walked into the city gate, the city gate soldiers glanced at Jill lightly, their eyes flashed with surprise and lust, and they waved their hands to beckon their companions to do something, and the caravan leader immediately seemed to unintentionally block the sight of the city gate soldiers, and gave the small bag that had been prepared to the city gate soldiers.
In the eyes of the city gate soldiers with obvious dissatisfaction, Jill and Xueshi walked into the city gate safely, even if the city gate soldiers still had lustful thoughts in their eyes, they did not dare to make any unnecessary moves.
This is Ooyama Castle.
A city of crime, a city of sin, a paradise for the rich with strange iron rules.
At the time when there is almost no such inhumane and ethical business as human trafficking, it also has a system that is far stricter than that of ordinary cities, and if you pay enough money, you will receive the protection of the lord of Xiongshan Castle, and no one will dare to cross the red line on the surface.
Extreme fear leads to extreme loyalty.
Without an excuse and paying the entrance fee, no matter how greedy the city gate soldiers were to Jill, he had to withdraw his sinful hands.
Because the aristocratic lords who can make the once dilapidated Xiongshan City prosperous and develop are by no means short-sighted, for the 'good people' who can bring development to the city, at least until their value is squeezed dry, the nobles will never let others get the first step.
If the soldiers of the city gate dared to strike at someone who had proved his worth, the consequences for welcoming him would be extremely harsh.
Therefore, even if the soldiers of the city gate were too unwilling, they had to withdraw their hands and force themselves to turn their greedy and lustful gaze to the long procession, hoping to find new prey.
Xueshi glanced at the city gate soldier a little strangely, and slowly let go of the hand holding the big hammer, it was the first time he faced this situation, and it was not so troublesome at all when he sneaked in.
"In the Land of Sin," Jill said, "only the most cruel and strict rules can deter the greedy jackals with a keen sense of smell." ”
"Huh?" Snow Stone looked at Jill strangely, completely unaware of what Jill was talking about.
Xueshi opened his mouth to ask, but at this moment, more than a dozen ragged beggars quickly ran out of the alley in the distance, and the brightly dressed people walking on the road showed disgust on their faces, and tightly covered their wallets, lest they avoid it.
"Hurry up, hurry up, the gates are about to close."
More than a dozen beggars quickly rushed to the city gate, Xueshi subconsciously covered his wallet, looking experienced, but the dozen beggars looked at the expressionless Jill and the robe she was wearing, went around in a big circle, avoided Jill far away, and rushed to the city gate at a faster speed.
Xueshi looked at the beggar who was bypassing vigilantly and in surprise, and said instructively: "Jill, you must be careful of these little things, their hands are fast, and they can mold their wallets away if they are not careful." ”
"They won't."
"Huh?" It was another incomprehensible word, Xueshi suddenly felt a feeling of facing his elders, obviously he could be Jill's grandfather from his age: "Jill, how do you know they don't dare." ”
"Call sister." Jill said lightly.
Xueshi immediately realized the omission and corrected: "Ahem, Sister Jill, how do you know they don't dare." ”
"As I said, only the most cruel and strict rules can deter the greedy jackals with a keen sense of smell."
These wild little jackals have the most sensitive noses, more sensitive than adult jackals, and have a particularly strong sense of smell, and if they dare to strike, they will be greeted with the most cruel consequences.
"Huh!?"
"Let's go."
The nobles never showed mercy to the jackals who coveted their gold coins.
In order to survive, the jackals either become the minions of the criminals; or just nest in the corner and silently pretend to be dead; Either you can only work hard to become a big jackal and join the camp of the noble lords.
And for the little jackals who are young and weak, can not serve as minions, and will be picked up by others if they pretend to be dead. The only way to stay away from the night when there are big jackals and guillotines everywhere in the city of Ooyama Castle will only become food for the big jackals.
"You humans are really ...... Terror. Xueshi muttered quietly, if it weren't for Jill, Xueshi felt that he would never understand the Tao.
Sure enough, it's better to be a dwarf.
In an instant, some of the thoughts that were still in my heart slowly became smaller, completely extinguished, and disappeared without a trace.
Jill glanced at Snow Stone without a trace, and an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Some things are better to be extinguished before they happen, especially some things that are messy if they are not cleaned up.
Led by Snow Stone, Jill came to a well-decorated hotel, the name is Brilliant, the interior is as its name suggests, inlaid with gold and silver, the price of a night is very amazing, one gold coin, equivalent to the living expenses of the villagers in Jill's hometown for a lifetime.
"I have to say, you're really going to enjoy it." Xueshi let out such an emotion and took out several gold coins from his wallet.
“……。” Jill suddenly became a little envious of the blacksmith.
……
When Jill checked into the hotel, Xiao Ling also followed the leaders of the grizzly bear and the lone wolf, and returned to the stronghold with the heads of the leaders of the small bandit group.
Although the momentum conflict between the two was extremely violent, and explosions were heard in the air from time to time, both of them had calm faces, and there was no joy or anger on their faces with some beastly features.
Grizzly Bear and Lone Wolf saw the two small bosses come back with a few heads, and at the same time snorted softly, and the momentum pressed down the two small leaders in unison.
At this time, the two little leaders, who had been friendly at the city gates, suddenly ignored each other like strangers in front of the two leaders.
"Chief, my subordinates are not doing their jobs well, please punish them."
The two small leaders knelt on one knee, handed a few heads to the leader, and took the initiative to explain what had happened, focusing on Jill's powerful combat power, and Xueshi, who looked like a teenager with an unexpected body, was also highlighted by the two.
After hearing this, the two leaders frowned and pondered, as if they had thought of something, and looked at each other cautiously, unusually did not get angry because of the unfavorable affairs of their subordinates, and even their momentum could not help but be restrained.
The two leaders asked solemnly:
"Tell me carefully about the woman's appearance, and whether she was accompanied by anyone, such as a very tall woman and a very beautiful and well-recuperated aristocratic woman."
"The woman you see is skilled in firearms or hand-to-hand combat."
The two leaders, who were already preparing for the leader's punishment, were stunned, and the jackal's survival instinct made them immediately begin to analyze the words of the two leaders.
The thoughts in my heart were complete, but I was not satisfied at all: "There is no such person, but judging from the names of those two, it should be a pair of sisters and brothers." My sister is an ice spellcaster with an unknown occupation, wearing a magic robe, I don't see a firearm, and judging by my body shape, I am not proficient in hand-to-hand combat, but my younger brother is fighting with a sledgehammer, so she should be a warrior. ”
The two leaders looked a little disappointed, and waved their hands to rebuke the two: "You go down to order the punishment yourself, and if you find out the information of the pair of sisters and brothers for me, you will do it according to the old rules." And the caravan, for me to block their way back to the country of Ness, as before, and make them pay double the tax. ”
There was no heavy punishment as imagined, and the two small leaders were overjoyed and hurriedly retreated.
Xiao Ling, who watched the whole process, also immediately flew to where Jill was.
