The sun above the sky is like fire, emitting blazing heat.

On the vast and desolate land, a caravan with more than twenty carriages was rushing towards the entrance of the Flying Fox Trail at a fairly good speed.

"How long will it take to get to the Flying Fox Trail?"

The steward of the caravan, sweating profusely, stood on top of the speeding carriage, his hands on the pergola and looking into the distance, his mouth full of dry mouth and shouting loudly.

Walking in the scorching sun is no good task, especially in this unsheltered wilderness, as if the whole world has become a great furnace.

"There are still a hundred miles or so!"

The guards at the front shouted loudly, also sweating profusely from the scorching sun above their heads, and there was a heat all over their bodies.

"Why is it so far away?"

The caravan steward beckoned, motioned for the guards in front to come over and speak, frowned slightly and said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't you say that you could arrive at noon, what time is it?" ”

"This is also no way, who knew that the originally good road was broken for such a long time?"

The guard looked helpless and said depressedly: "There are no people here, and there is not even a place to rest, and you must get the entrance of the Flying Fox Path to repair!" ”

This guy is obviously very familiar with the journey to the Flying Fox Trail, and is a veteran of the road.

"It's too remote here......"

The steward was helpless, so he had to say depressedly: "If it weren't for the second young master's special order, I would never have come to this place where birds don't!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a loud beast roar came from nowhere, and the horses in the caravan suddenly became uneasy, and the steward's face became even more ugly and a little more cautious.

"Everyone, be careful, don't let the nearby mutated beasts sneak attack!"

The guard who had just replied didn't care about the look of care, and hurriedly patted his horse and quickly walked around the front and back of the caravan, shouting loudly to remind his companions, who were dizzy from the sun, to be careful.

"Look, there's a mutated tiger on the hill in the distance!"

I don't know which one shouted, and suddenly the eyes of all the guards of the caravan looked over, and then there was a sound of gasp.

The terrain is flat and the wilderness is faintly visible as far as the eye can see, a mound ten miles away.

At this time, on the top of the mound, a huge colorful tiger stood proudly, eyeing the caravan.

Just by looking at the majestic body, you know that it is not an existence that is easy to provoke......

The caravan was as if it were facing a great enemy, and they were nervous one by one, and they did not dare to act rashly.

Fortunately, the huge mutant tiger quickly vanished, apparently not targeting the caravan.

Call......

The whole caravan breathed a sigh of relief, and one by one they noticed that the clothes on their backs had been soaked with cold sweat, and they felt very uncomfortable.

"Didn't you say there weren't any mutated beasts nearby?"

The steward's face turned pale, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Is it possible that it is all fake?" ”

"Of course not!"

The leader of the guards shook his head and explained: "The Flying Fox Trail is quite attentive to the maintenance of the trade road, and often sends experts to clean up the existence that may endanger the safety of the trade road, whether it is a mutated beast or a strongman who blocks the road and robs!" ”

"And what happened to the mutant tiger just now?"

The steward was not polite at all, and said unhappily: "After I go back, I must have a good talk with the second young master and say, Flying Fox Trail is not a good place here!" ”

The head of the guard was speechless, and said with a smile: "Steward, the Flying Fox Path doesn't ask for us, on the contrary, some of the specialties here are in demand in the house, and you can't come if you don't come!" ”

When the steward heard this, he said angrily: "Can't you take a ride with other firms?" ”

"As long as the chief steward agrees, I have no opinion!"

The leader of the guards smiled: "In other words, there is still a certain danger in the business route to the Flying Fox Path!" ”

As he spoke, there was a puff of smoke and dust at the end of the road, and the guards in charge of the guard suddenly became nervous, and the leader of the guards did not dare to slack off and hurriedly stepped forward to command.

Soon, a caravan of considerable size quickly approached, and the banner fluttering in the caravan was a well-known caravan in the Northland.

The leader of the guards did not dare to relax his vigilance, and sent several capable junior brothers to take the initiative to investigate, and soon sent back the security information.

"Steward, it's the carriage and horse of the Flying Eagle Trading Company!"

Returning to the steward's side, he reported in a low voice: "The scale is about the same as ours, don't worry too much!" ”

"Let's go, come with me!"

The steward jumped out of the carriage and turned on his horse, and led several guards to the carriage of the Flying Eagle Trading House, and chatted with the familiar steward opposite him for a while.

After the two commercial houses were staggered and separated, the steward breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Looking at the appearance of the steward opposite, it is obvious that this time the harvest is not small!" ”

"The Flying Fox Trail is able to provide a large number of processed specialties!"

The leader of the guards chimed in: "These things are not too cherished in the Northland, but if they can be transported to Dingzhou, or even the hinterland of the empire, then they are really worth a lot of money, aren't we here like this?" ”

The steward nodded in approval, and the expression on his face was obviously much more relaxed......

After hundreds of miles, I don't know if it was because of frequent cleaning, and I never encountered the danger of mutated beasts peeping at me again.

On the way, I also encountered several merchants, large and small, and even a small caravan composed of more than a dozen people, so that the road was no longer desolate.

When it was getting late, the group of carriages and horses finally arrived at the walled city at the entrance of the Flying Fox Trail.

Entering the inn on the outskirts of the walled city, the caravan and his party all breathed a sigh of relief.

The so-called periphery of the walled city is a village that has been built with simple planning. However, there are no villagers living here, all of them are inns, warehouses and small markets, which are quite rare in the deserted Flying Fox Trail area.

As for the real walled city, it is a military fortress with a scale of 100 people, blocking the entrance of the Flying Fox Trail tightly.

When the caravan arrived here, the basic security was still there.

Moreover, the small market here also provides a variety of daily necessities, so you don't have to worry about the inconvenience of life. There is no shortage of food and wine in the environment of the inn, and the taste is actually okay, and the stewards and guards who have suffered from the trek are so unhappy.

After washing up and removing the dust from their bodies, the caravan steward and the leader of the guards asked for a sumptuous banquet in the inn lobby to treat themselves.

The environment of the inn is good, at least it looks neat and clean, more than one caravan is temporarily occupied, and the lobby is almost full, which seems to be very noisy and lively.

No one cares about the combination of the steward and the head of the guard, and they are the most common presence in the lobby.

As they waited for the food to be served, the stewards and the leaders of the guards pricked up their ears and listened to the conversations of nearby diners.

"I heard that no, there is a large number of goods on the other side of the Flying Fox Trail fiefdom recently, but unfortunately I brought insufficient manpower this time, otherwise the harvest will be big!"

"It's pretty much the same on my side, who knew it would be such a coincidence. I heard that it was the lord's elite who caught a large herd of bison outside the fortress! ”

"Forget it, there are not enough people, even if you are envious, it's useless!"

"I heard that this bison herd seems to have several mutated bison, and they are the most valuable!"

"In other words, even if we get these mutated wild things, we can't make them, and they have to be like the Flying Fox Trail territory, which has been soaked by special means and turned into all kinds of good things, which is really valuable!"

"These have nothing to do with me, the main purpose of my visit this time is to buy a sufficient number of woolen blankets, as well as all kinds of cowhides and sheepskin products!"

"I'm pretty much the same, and I don't know how the lord operates, there are so many means and ways to brew worthless cowhides and sheepskins, even the flesh and bones of cattle and sheep can be used, this kind of means is really powerful!"

"The lord is naturally powerful, otherwise, how could he gain a firm foothold in such a remote place as the Flying Fox Trail, and also develop the territory to flourish?"

"It's just a pity that this side of the Flying Fox Path is indeed too remote, even if the lord's ability and means are extraordinary, limited to the number of people, he can only barely control the entire Flying Fox Path!"

"It's already very good, don't look at how powerful those guys in the territory are, almost everyone is strong in martial arts, and their lives are worry-free!"

"Also, if it weren't for the fear of being attacked by the barbarians outside the Saiwai, I would have wanted to relocate my family to the Flying Fox Trail!"

"No, brother, your family is a little powerful, and the days of following a certain northern general are also nourishing, why envy the Flying Fox Trail?"

"That's it, if you want me to say that life is better in the hinterland of the Northland, at least you don't have to worry about the possible mutated beasts, and the more ferocious barbarians outside the Cypriots!"

"You know a fart, my family has a good foundation, but my kid is not qualified to go to school, he can only follow me to learn some business methods, it is better to be sent to the public school of Flying Fox Trail early, this is a good way out!"

"That's right, the public school in Flying Fox Trail is quite good, it not only teaches the Confucian classics of the Eight Classics, but also teaches internal boxing and hard martial arts, and even hundreds of schools of thought such as military books and battle strategies are taught!"

"I heard that this is a bold decision made by the lord because his henchmen are willing to travel thousands of miles to follow him to the Flying Fox Trail fiefdom to endure hardships and struggle!"

"It's really bold enough, if it was in the Northland, it would have caused the dissatisfaction of the generals and the magnates, only in the Flying Fox Path Fiefdom because the situation is very special, the lord must do this in order to win the hearts of the people, but even so, it still causes the dissatisfaction of the powerful people in the Northland!"

"What about dissatisfaction? The Lord of the Flying Fox Path is not a vegetarian, and his subordinates have such a strong existence as the Sword Crazy Wind, and ordinary powerful generals really don't dare to offend! ”

"The Flying Fox Trail is still a little remote here, and under the premise that there is no fierce conflict of interest, the Northland magnates will not do too much, otherwise we can't go to the Flying Fox Trail to do business at will, if the master doesn't allow it!"

"It's also said, we just do business to make money, and other things are not our turn to dictate, it's better to be careful, some things are not something we can participate in at will......"
