Chapter 595 Don't argue with fools
"Husband, do you think about how we should leave?"
"I said you're not annoying! You stupid woman, you're really annoyed! ”
"You...... Don't be angry...... I don't want you to be angry...... I was just...... Just ......"
"Enough! Stop talking! I get a headache when I see that face. Turn around and don't let me see you! ”
"Good...... Good............ Husband, that guild leader has been asking our upline ...... before. You say, if we tell him about our upline, will he let us go? ”
"Heh, this kind of is only believed by people like you. How can the boss of this mercenary group keep his word? ”
"Woooooooooo......oo But my husband ...... If you say...... What if he was really willing to let us go? If he asks anything, we will answer it...... In that case......"
"Hey, that's enough! You woman is really stupid to the extreme! Call...... Really, if it weren't for the difficult conditions at that time, I wouldn't have married such a stupid woman as you! I'm telling you, if you manage to escape this time, the first thing I'll do is ask you to get out of me! ”
"Husband! You...... Don't say that......"
"Have I allowed you to come back and see me?!"
"No...... No, no, no...... I don't dare...... Please...... Don't want me...... I don't have to wait for a little cream...... Except for the little cream, there is only your husband, ......! Woowoo...... Woohoo......"
The rest of the cellar was left with the messy, faint cries.
This is a bit difficult for Coco, who is now with her ear on the cellar door, to judge the current situation.
After hesitating for a long time, the little necromancer finally made up his mind, reached out and lifted the lid of the cellar entrance.
As the candlelight in his hand shone into the cellar, Coco also cautiously entered the space that is usually used to store some idle materials.
She lit a few other candles in the cellar to make the light even more abundant.
After looking around the cellar, he saw that the macaroon lady was now tied to a pillar behind her back, and her head was turned away, so that she did not dare to look at her husband. The paladin, on the other hand, was still tied to another pillar, and even the position of his head was fixed, unable to move.
Coco smiled slightly, walked up to Mrs. Macaroon, and helped her untie the rope slightly.
After her hands and feet were free, the woman rubbed her wrists, which had been tied for almost a day, looking a little surprised.
Coco nodded slightly, took out a few pancakes from his arms and handed them over, and said with a smile: "I've been tied up for a day, are you hungry?" Eat it. ”
Mrs. Macaroons looked at the crepes, and after thinking about it, she clutched her stomach, looking like she wanted to pick it up but didn't dare to take it.
She turned her head to glance at her husband next to her, but Bass's expression didn't change at all, just looking at her silently.
After a long time, the paladin nodded slightly.
"That'...... Then ...... Thank you......"
Mrs. Macaroon took the pancake, quickly walked over to her husband, tore off a small piece, and was about to feed it to Bass.
But Bas didn't look over his head and said coldly: "You eat first, I'm not hungry yet." ”
Mrs. Macaroon's eyes showed a little surprise, but since her husband said that she was not hungry, she did not force it, and stuffed the torn pancake into her mouth, chewed it twice, and swallowed it.
Perhaps, I was too hungry. Immediately after tasting the taste of the food, the woman began to hold the pancake and nibble continuously. After gnawing off a piece of bread like a whirlwind, she wiped the oil on her mouth, rubbed her stomach slightly, and put down the pancake in her hand.
Coco kept smiling at the woman, and only after she finished eating the pancake did she nod lightly and said, "Do you want to go to the bathroom?" If you want to go up, I'll go with you once. ”
Mrs. Macaroons turned her head to look at her husband again, but this time, there was a slight stern color in his eyes. This made her quickly shake her head and say, "No...... Not for the time being, all the way here...... I don't eat or drink much, so I don't want to be convenient......"
Coco snorted, "So, do you still think we're abusing you two captives?" ”
Mrs. Macaroons was slightly stunned, but immediately noticed the hint of ridicule in Coco's words, and quickly shook her head: "No, no, no!" I...... We don't dare ......."
"Hey, I'm hungry."
It was also at this time that Bass, who was next to her, opened her mouth to cry out that she was hungry, and Mrs. Macaroon hurriedly tore open another piece of pancake and stuffed it into her husband's mouth.
Seeing that Buzz is now willing to eat the Mermaid's Song, Coco knows that his first step has succeeded.
When Buzz gobbled down a piece of pizza, she immediately laughed and said, "It seems that you have a big opinion of our guild?" Why, you can be so upright as a smuggler, and you can act for your last dignity in the name of a paladin, and we are a guild that fights your smuggling, but you call it a gang of bandits? Your double standard is really slippery. ”
Mrs. Macaroons on the side blushed slightly, and lowered her head even more.
"Hey, I haven't eaten enough!"
But with a cry from Bass, the woman quickly began to tear the pancake in her hand again and put it in her husband's mouth.
While eating, Buzz hummed and said, "Don't talk so much nonsense!" Do you think it's a fair thing for you to crack down on smuggling? Along the way, I was escorted back by you, and Du Lengjia was carried by you! If you weren't black, you should have handed over Du Lengjia a long time ago, right? Hum! If you don't turn it in, it proves that you are a gang of bandits! Am I right? ”
Coco, the trick that Arrow used to deal with the Sinking Swamp before, can still be remembered now.
For this kind of guy with high self-esteem, then the first thing to do is to destroy his self-esteem. After all, you are the dominant party, and if you want to negotiate, you must definitely suppress the other party in terms of momentum!
Luckily, Coco had made some preparations before she came in. So this little girl now let out a sneer with confidence and said, "Why do you think we didn't report it? Hehe, Du Lengjia is a good thing. How much money can I make from smuggling? Do you think that with such a lucrative thing, our royal family will watch this kind of thing continue to exist? ”
Originally, Coco planned to take advantage of information asymmetry and spread false news to directly suppress this paladin.
But what Buzz said next made Coco stunned for a moment.
"Royalty? What does smuggling have to do with royalty? Hey, necromancer, are you kidding me? Seeing that you are not very old, are you still normal? ”
Yes, Coco was stunned directly.
For more than two years, the necromancer has been educated by President Arrow on all levels of economics. Therefore, it is self-evident that the mode of thinking cannot be said to have completely changed to an economic man now, at least it has been affected.
But she obviously didn't expect that the paladin in front of her couldn't understand that there was a very close connection between the smuggling and the damage to the interests of the royal family?
At the moment, Coco was still a little unwilling, and quickly shook his head and said, "No! Do you know that this kind of smuggling is completely harming the interests of the Blue Bay Empire? ”
"Harming the interests of the Blue Bay Empire? Ha! Are you being funny? ”
Bass's eyes were full of disdain, and he shook his face at his wife, and said—
"Hey, wife, do you understand what this necromancer is talking about?"
Mrs. Macaroons thought for a moment, and her head shook like a rattle.
Buzz continued to put on a proud face and sneered: "Smuggling and smuggling, isn't it because we didn't sell those Du Leng Jia at a high price, so that the manufacturer of this medicine has no way to make more money? But you have to know that it is precisely because of those of us who are smugglers that the price of Du Lengjia is not so expensive! Only those ordinary people can buy these cheaper special drugs at a cheaper price! ”
"Speaking of which, I have always followed the rules of a paladin, and I have completely dedicated my life and my beliefs to ordinary people! Hey, what's the second rule of the Paladin?! ”
Mrs. Macaroon was stunned for a moment, quickly stopped tearing the pancake hand, and said loudly: "The second article of the Paladin's Code, I will dedicate my life to the people, I will become a shield to protect the lives of the people, and I will also become a sword that breaks the shackles of the people!" ”
Hearing that his wife finished reciting, Bas nodded vigorously again: "That's it!" Hmph, necromancer, don't mess with me with all those lofty excuses and justifications. We smuggle so that more people can buy cheaper medicines at cheaper prices! You can't deny that in any case! So, want to teach me a lesson? You go back and read a good book first! ”
In an instant, Coco was speechless.
It's not that she's speechless because she can't refute it, but there are so many points that she can fight back, so much so that she doesn't know which direction to start fighting back from for a while.
There were too many and too complicated ideas to make the little necromancer's brain thinking ability down for a while, and after a long time, she quickly shook her head, tried her best to organize the language, and said, "No...... That's not right! It is true that the price of your smuggling can be cheaper, and it is true that ordinary people can buy your smuggled goods at a cheaper price, but the reason why you are cheap is because of smuggling and you have escaped a large part of the customs duties......"
