Chapter Ninety-Eight: Lucius Village
Lucius Village.
A small village on the border between the Kingdom of Liberty and the Duchy of White City.
It is also the last village of the Free Kingdom that you will encounter when you go to the Duchy of White City from the Free Kingdom.
As the village chief of Lucius Village, Old Lucius was very happy today, because just now a small caravan came to Lucius Village.
For Lucius Village, it had been a long time since a caravan had come to the village.
You must know that four or five months ago, Lucius Village was still a small village with busy caravans, but since the civil strife in the Duchy of Baicheng, many merchants are reluctant to venture into the already chaotic Duchy of Baicheng with caravans, and it is precisely for this reason that the originally lively Lucius Village has also been deserted.
Looking at the caravan in front of him, Old Lucius hurriedly greeted the people in the village and arranged accommodation for everyone in the caravan.
With the arrangement of old Lucius, the villagers quickly arranged a place for the caravan to live.
Seeing that the accommodation of everyone in the caravan had been arranged, old Lucius also came to the front of the caravan leader.
Old Lucius looked at the Daqin man in front of him with a smile on his face, and Old Lucius didn't know why he always felt a little weird. But old Lucius thought about it for a while, and didn't know why he felt this way, so old Lucius shook his head and threw his thoughts out of his mind.
And seeing his arrival, the middle-aged man in luxury with a respectful face behind the Great Qin man in front of him also looked directly at him. And after the middle-aged man's gaze looked directly at him, old Lucius also felt a chill in his body, and a lot of cold sweat broke out on his back.
For old Lucius, how long he has lived, of course, he understands that this is because the man in luxury in front of him is very powerful, so one of his eyes makes him feel frightened, coupled with the aura that the man exudes from time to time in the early stage, which makes him even more afraid.
"Sir! Don't know what else you can ask us to help with! ”
Looking at the old village chief who was trembling and talking to him, Lu Yu glanced at Dracula behind him, smiled wryly and shook his head.
"Dracula, you go and help Roger arrange the affairs of the caravan!"
From the old village chief's trembling appearance, Lu Yu knew that the old village chief really couldn't stand the momentum that Dracula unintentionally released. As a very strong ordinary person, he may not be able to resist the momentum unintentionally released by a seventh-order professional, not to mention that the village chief is an old man, and his resistance to momentum is even lower.
"Your will!"
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Dracula saluted Lu Yu and walked towards Roger.
Watching Dracula walk into the distance, Lu Yu said with a smile to the old village chief in front of him.
"Sir, you must not be so polite to me! You just call me Lu! ”
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Old Lucius hurriedly shook his head and said to Lu Yu.
"Not that way, sir! As a commoner, how can you call the name of the noble lord! ”
Hearing Old Lucius's words, Lu Yu said with a smile.
"Sir, I'm not a nobleman! I'm just a mercenary! ”
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Old Lucius looked at Lu Yu in disbelief.
"For a man with a gorgeously dressed butler to be a mercenary, you tease me!"
This was the idea that Lu Yu saw in the eyes of old Lucius.
And after seeing the eyes of old Lucius, Lu Yu also said helplessly.
"Alright! If you want to call me sir, just call me! ”
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Old Lucius hurriedly said to Lu Yu.
"I wonder if you need us to do something for you!"
Hearing Old Lucius's words, Lu Yu also nodded and said to Old Lucius.
"I'm not responsible for what needs to be done from you, and someone will come to you later! Now I want to ask something from you! ”
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Old Lucius said to Lu Yu.
"I don't know what you want to ask, sir, we civilians in the village behind us don't know as much as you know!"
Hearing Old Lucius's words, Lu Yu said with a smile.
"What I'm going to ask is really not what you know!"
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Old Lucius looked at Lu Yu nervously.
You must know that even he doesn't know that he knows more things than the nobleman in front of him. At the same time, old Lucius was also nervous, knowing that if these nobles could not get a satisfactory answer, they would not be polite.
Looking at Old Lucius's nervous expression, Lu Yu said with a smile.
"Don't be nervous, old man! I want to ask you something about the Duchy of White City, and I only know a little about the things in the Duchy of White City, and obviously not as much as those of you who live on the border, so I wonder if you can tell me something about the Duchy of White City! ”
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Old Lucius also relaxed, for the information that Lu Yu wanted to know, it was not a problem for him.
For those who live on the border, it is not only necessary to understand the dynamics of their own country, but also the dynamics of the other country, because perhaps if one is not careful, the two countries will go to war, and then the first person to be injured is himself.
After Old Lucius relaxed, he said to Lu Yu with a smile.
"If you want to know, go to my house! After you sit down, I'll talk to you slowly! ”
Hearing Old Lucius's invitation, Lu Yu agreed with a smile.
Under the leadership of old Lucius, Lu Yu came to a house in Lucius's village.
Seeing that Old Lucius's house was no different from that of other villagers, Lu Yu's sense of Old Lucius suddenly rose to a higher level.
You must know that there are not some miscellaneous things in the other world, and after becoming the village head, he will do evil, loot the property of the villagers, and cause the village to complain.
Looking at the ordinary house in front of him, Lu Yu smiled and took the tea sent by Old Lucius.
"Sir! This is the last time the Great Qin caravan passed by, the tea I bought from the Great Qin caravan, and I was usually reluctant to drink it! I only took out some when the distinguished guests came! How about you try it! ”
Hearing Old Lucius's words, after Lu Yu took a sip of tea, Lu Yu felt that his tears were about to fall out.
You must know that since you came to the other world, all the people you have met are Caucasians, and the food is also Western, and at first there may be a little novelty about the surrounding environment, but after a long time, there is a sense of homesickness! Although you can usually meet some Great Qin people on the street, it is obvious that for Lu Yu, it cannot reduce homesickness.
For Lu Yu, he didn't like to drink tea much in modern times, but after arriving in the other world, after drinking green tea again, Lu Yu felt full of nostalgia.
Although the Edward family also has tea, there is only black tea in the Edward family, which is what Lu Yu usually drinks, but obviously for Lu Yu, what he misses the most is green tea.
Just when Lu Yu felt it alone, Old Lucius also noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked nervously on the side.
"Sir! Isn't the tea I bought bad? If it's a problem with tea, please forgive me for my sins! I don't know much about tea from the East! ”
Looking at Old Lucius's trembling expression, Lu Yu said with a grateful face.
"Nope! No problem with tea! Thank you for your tea, I haven't drunk tea for a long time, so after drinking tea, I miss my hometown very much! ”
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Old Lucius also breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Old Lucius was relieved, Lu Yu said to Old Lucius.
"Sir, can you tell me about the Duchy of White City now?"
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Old Lucius patted his head and hurriedly said to Lu Yu.
"That's right! Right! Let's talk about the Duchy of White City! ”
Later, old Lucius also began to talk to Lu Yu about the Principality of White City.
As old Lucius spoke more and more, the more excited he became, and by the end of the conversation, old Lucius had already begun to insult the initiators of the civil strife in the Duchy of White City this time. You must know that it was this initiator who made Lucius Village deserted and made life in Lucius Village difficult.
As a result, the elder Lucius spoke for nearly four hours, and for nearly an hour and a half, the elder Lucius was greeting all the female relatives in the family of the initiator.
For old Lucius's anger, Lu Yu could only smile on the side, watching old Lucius vent his heart.
As Old Lucius's words fell, Old Lucius also gasped and drank his tea.
Looking at the panting old Lucius, Lu Yu said with a smile.
"Old village chief, thank you for telling me about the Principality of Baicheng, if you hadn't told me this news, I would have been smeared with a black eye when I arrived in the Principality of Baicheng!"
Hearing Lu Yu's words, old Lucius also remembered that he had wantonly insulted the initiator in front of this nobleman before, you must know that many nobles don't like to hear others wantonly scold others in front of them, thinking of this, old Lucius suddenly became nervous. Hurriedly apologized to Lu Yu.
"Sir! I'm really sorry! I didn't mean to insult someone in front of you! ”
Hearing Old Lucius's words, Lu Yu said with a smile.
"Old village chief! It's okay, it's all trifle, I don't mind. You are absolutely right about the insults of the initiators! You must know that as a village chief, I don't think I will be merciful as a village chief for the culprit of a village that has been carefully run by himself! However, although insulting that person can relieve you a lot, I think you should also be a little more restrained in the future, knowing that you are also old and can't abuse as much as you did when you were younger, which is not good for your health! ”
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Old Lucius laughed all of a sudden.
"Sir! Thank you for your concern! What a benevolent nobleman you are! ”
Hearing Old Lucius's words, Lu Yu smiled and nodded.
"Now that I know the news I need, I won't bother!"
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Old Lucius also politely sent Lu Yu away.
Just when Lu Yu was about to go out, Old Lucius patted his forehead and said to Lu Yu.
"Sir! Wait a minute! I've got something for you! ”
When old Lucius had said he had fun, he ran into the house and rummaged through the cabinets.
After a while, Old Lucius gave Lu Yu a leather scroll and looked at the scroll that Old Lucius gave him.
Lu Yu looked at Old Lucius with a questioning expression.
Seeing Lu Yu's expression, Old Lucius said with a smile.
"Sir! This is a map I drew when I used to travel in the Duchy of White City! I'm old now, too, and the map isn't of much use to me, so I'm going to give it to you! This will also be of great help to you after entering the Duchy of the White City! ”
Hearing Old Lucius's words, Lu Yu's color suddenly lit up.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Village Chief!"
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Old Lucius hurriedly responded politely.
At the same time, Lu Yu also took out a money bag from his pocket and handed it to Old Lucius.
And after seeing Lu Yu take out the money bag, old Lucius hurriedly wanted to stop it, but under Lu Yu's hard stuffing, old Lucius still took the money bag in Lu Yu's hand.
After seeing Old Lucius take the money bag, Lu Yu also said goodbye to Old Lucius and walked towards the hotel where the caravan was staying.
