Chapter 108: Fox Ear Niang
"Zhang Feng."
Zhang Feng looked very calm on the surface, but as for whether it was the same in his heart, only he knew.
"Lord Zhang Feng, can you take the liberty of asking, why are you here?"
The masked leader took off his mask, revealing a face that had some vicissitudes.
"I ...... I went out to play and got separated from the servants. ”
Zhang Feng replied stubbornly.
Since they all think that he is a nobleman, then there should be nothing wrong with him pretending to be all of a sudden.
"Oh......"
The leader looked at Zhang Feng and fell into deep thought.
Judging from his appearance, Zhang Feng is indeed a nobleman, because his exquisite clothes are not available to others.
The boss is estimated to be worth at least a dozen gold coins!
But he had no servants, which is again a big doubt.
It's not that he suspects Zhang Feng's aristocratic status, but he suspects that Zhang Feng is dead, and this person is pretending to be his target.
For the other party's ability to disguise, he has lingering fears.
"We are looking for a wanted criminal, I would like to check if the civilian in your arms is okay? Oh yes, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Beard Clark and I'm a bounty hunter. ”
Bill said with a smile.
Bounty Hunter ......
Zhang Feng had only seen this profession in books, and he didn't know if this bounty hunter was different from what he had learned.
But he actually wants this little girl? Zhang Feng was naturally unwilling.
Not only because of the desire to protect, but more importantly, he knew from the performance of these people just now that the nobles seemed to have a relatively high status here.
Since he is pretending to be a nobleman, he naturally can't be coaxed casually, at least you have to pull out your knife and threaten it, if you really suppress a nobleman in a few words, Zhang Feng feels that it is not a nobleman at all.
And there is another point, although these people look fierce and vicious, they did not harm the lives of the homeless, which shows that they still have a certain degree of discipline.
So Zhang Feng's tone was a little tough:
"What does it have to do with me that you're looking for your wanted criminal? This is my servant, and you have no right to check! ”
When Zhang Feng said this, although his tone was very calm, his body was trembling slightly, and only the little girl in his arms could feel it.
Beard stared at Zhang Feng with a serious face, and Zhang Feng also stared at him without compromise.
In fact, in Zhang Feng's heart, he was already a little bitter.
Don't look at me!
If you want to draw a knife, you will draw a knife, if you want to threaten, as long as you dare to draw a knife, I will dare to kneel down and beg for mercy!
But if you don't speak, wouldn't it be a little embarrassing if I knelt down directly!
Zhang Feng can still vomit like crazy in this situation, and this is no one.
"It's me who is abrupt, I'll make amends to the adult."
However, the expected threat did not appear, and the bounty hunter named Beard saluted Zhang Feng and then retreated with a smile.
"You know each other."
Zhang Feng muttered, as if he was very disdainful of Bill.
However, I don't know if Beard heard Zhang Feng's words, anyway, after leaving, after talking a few words to a few subordinates, he left.
The naked homeless people who were left behind trembled.
Seeing that the other party finally left, Zhang Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
He felt his back get drenched with sweat.
But afterwards, Zhang Feng felt that people in this world are still very good at talking, bounty hunters sound like a very good profession, but they retreated after a few words, which shows that people are still very civilized.
This made Zhang Feng's good impression of this world improve a lot.
And a kilometer away.
Beard asked his companion:
"Are you sure there's nothing missing?"
"Yes, there is no her among these outcasts. If we can't catch her this time, it will be even harder in the future! ”
The companion replied.
"That can't be helped, we did our best."
Beard frowned, he really did his best.
The companion suddenly said:
"But that nobleman seems a little suspicious!"
"No, that nobleman is not her."
Beard vetoed it outright.
"Why?"
The companion was curious and didn't know why Beard came to this conclusion.
"Because he fits most of the characteristics of the nobility - good-looking, clean, noblely dressed, never lagging behind others in language, and regards face as life, but he has no strength of his own, and when he is alone in the face of threats, he is a bit of a bad look."
"Huh? Is this a characteristic of the aristocracy? But the nobles I've seen before aren't like that, at least not as good-looking as him, and not as good-looking as his clothes......"
"So I say that he fits most of the characteristics of the nobility. He is definitely an aristocrat, without pretense. And it seems that he is still a nobleman who has not gone out much, or that he has always been well protected by knights, this is the first time he has come out alone, but this also means that the power in his family may be terrifying, so if we can not offend, try not to offend, otherwise it will be very troublesome. ”
"I see, teachable!"
If Zhang Feng knew Beard's thoughts, he was afraid that he would be scared to death. With just a few words, Zhang Feng can be seen so thoroughly, such a person is simply terrifying.
……
"Okay, it's okay!"
Zhang Feng patted the back of the little girl in his arms and comforted him.
The girl looked up at him, her gray eyes filled with confusion and confusion.
"Why are you protecting me?"
This is the longest sentence the little girl has ever spoken.
It's just that this seemingly simple question stopped Zhang Feng.
"Uh...... How to say it, it's a subconscious behavior, isn't it instinct to protect the weak, not to mention that I'm still a man, and it's also instinct for men to protect women. ”
Zhang Feng patted his chest, looking very heroic, as for the thing that was ready to beg for mercy just now, it was impossible for him to say it, it was too embarrassing.
The little girl fell into deep thought.
Zhang Feng's situation just now was obviously scared, but she was still stubborn, and she was a little touched.
"Where are you going? If you drop by, you can come with me. ”
Zhang Feng asked suddenly.
"I ...... Good. ”
The little girl nodded.
Zhang Feng was a little happy, not because he had any intentions for her, but because he had someone to talk to.
As for the middle-aged man leading the carriage. emm…… The smell of that mouth full of mouth made Zhang Feng have no desire to speak.
"By the way, what's your name?"
Zhang Feng realized that he didn't know her name either.
"Name? I don't have a name. ”
The little girl's expression was a little confused.
"Huh? Don't have a name? ”
Zhang Feng was stunned for a moment, and then had some sympathy, his desire to protect exploded again, and he didn't even have a name, this must be a poor child who had no parents since he was a child, thinking of his life experience, Zhang Feng said tentatively:
"Shall I give you a name?"
"Okay."
The little girl thought for a moment, then nodded.
Zhang Feng frowned.
"Or you have my surname, my surname is Zhang, and your name is Zhang Xiaotang, how about it!"
Zhang Feng remembered that he gave her his last lollipop to eat, which was probably the last lollipop in his world, so the name was still very memorable.
As for why it is called Zhang Xiaotang, not Zhang Lollipop. Because the latter one is too stupid.
Little Girl: "......"
"It's not good, then I'll think about it again-"
"Good!"
"Huh? Do you agree? ”
"Hmm."
"Hehe, it looks like I still have a talent for naming."
……
After this incident, the people here are in a bad mood, but this has nothing to do with Zhang Feng, he has already taken the middle-aged man's carriage on the road.
At the same time, there were other people along the way, merchants, and homeless people.
Although the carriage was very broken, Zhang Feng felt that there was a novel experience.
Zhang Feng kept asking Zhang Xiaotang about some information about the human society in this world on the carriage, but the strange thing was that Zhang Xiaotang was always hesitant and couldn't talk for a long time.
Zhang Feng only thought that she had never seen the world, and she didn't care too much.
During this period, Zhang Feng also shared some food with her, but Zhang Xiaotang was also very measured, just tasted it, and did not eat more.
During the night, the group found a flat place and set up camp.
The middle-aged man had two tents, one for himself and the other for Zhang Feng and Zhang Xiaotang.
The tent was not big, and Zhang Feng and Zhang Xiaotang were wearing clothes and lying on a broken blanket.
The broken blanket tastes a little rancid, but it's all at this time, how can there be so much attention.
On this day, Zhang Feng was very tired, he was talking to Zhang Xiaotang one moment, and he fell asleep the next moment.
A soft snoring sounded, Zhang Xiaotang looked at Zhang Feng without any expression, and suddenly, Zhang Xiaotang's pupils turned red.
"Hey, he should be asleep!"
"Be quiet, this is a nobleman!"
"What's wrong with the nobles, he's alone, and he's definitely not our opponent!"
"And there's a little girl...... Hey! ”
More than ten seconds later, the tent was opened from the outside.
Three figures appeared, some of them were holding sticks, some were holding knives, and it was obvious that they were not good.
However, when they saw the situation in the tent, they were suddenly stunned.
They didn't see Zhang Feng, they didn't see Zhang Xiaotang, they only saw a pair of red eyes.
Then the trio's gaze became glazed, and after a few seconds, they turned and slowly walked into the darkness.
The tent was closed.
Half an hour later.
Four more figures came to Zhang Feng's tent.
Open the tent, be in a daze, turn around, and walk into the darkness.
……
In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Feng slept until he woke up naturally.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Zhang Xiaotang curled up beside him, her face was a little pale, and he didn't know if it was a little cold.
Zhang Feng put his coat on her, and Zhang Xiaotang was awakened by Zhang Feng's movements.
"Uh...... Good morning. ”
“…… Good morning. ”
Zhang Feng handed Zhang Xiaotang a few biscuits, and Zhang Xiaotang took them with an unnatural expression.
"Huh? Why are there so many fewer people here? ”
When he came outside, Zhang Feng suddenly found that there was still a large group of people yesterday, and when he looked at it today, it was at least a third less.
The middle-aged man trotted over with a serious face.
"My lord, last night, we didn't know what happened here, some people disappeared inexplicably, let's get on the road early."
"Good!"
Hearing that these people were missing, Zhang Feng was a little worried, and naturally agreed with the middle-aged man's words.
However, at this time, Zhang Xiaotang proposed to say goodbye.
The place where she is going, from here on, it is not a stopper.
Zhang Feng asked with some concern:
"Are you really not going to Red Leaf City with me?"
"No, I still have some things."
Zhang Feng didn't understand where this kid came from so many things.
But since the other party proposed it, Zhang Feng had no reason to stop it, in the final analysis, the two had only known each other for a day.
"Okay, then you should be careful on the road, by the way, these things are for you."
Zhang Feng opened the backpack, took a bag of snacks in the backpack, and stuffed them into Zhang Xiaotang's hand.
Not much, but it represents Zhang Feng's heart.
"Thank you."
Zhang Xiaotang is gone, and Zhang Feng doesn't have any special feelings.
He doesn't know how he will live tomorrow yet, how can he have time to pay attention to others.
Sitting in the carriage, from morning to afternoon, Zhang Feng was so upset that he wanted to vomit, he kept thinking about how good it would be if he had a car, and he probably ran there a long time ago.
It's night again, thinking of those people who disappeared inexplicably yesterday, Zhang Feng was a little scared, but fear couldn't stop him from falling asleep, and he fell asleep in the early hours of the morning.
"Whew~Whew-"
A wolf howl came from afar, like a pack of wolves, but the howl suddenly stopped.
Zhang Feng didn't hear it at all, and he slept well again.
The next day, when he got out of the tent, Zhang Feng found that some people were going their separate ways.
Some people had to leave at every turn, and only the middle-aged man's carriage kept moving forward.
About three kilometers away from Zhang Feng, there were more than a dozen people riding horses and galloping.
Each of them had a different outfit and looked rather disheveled, but they all had a scimitar of the same size hanging from their waists.
If anyone is here, they will surely recognize that they are feared horse thieves!
And the direction in which they are moving is Zhang Feng's position.
But suddenly, a shadow scurried into the horse thief.
"Ahh
"Ahh
In an instant, several horse thieves fell from their horses and fell to the ground motionless.
"Who!"
The horse thief was shocked, but he couldn't see who it was.
Ten seconds later, all the horse thieves died, except for the horses intact.
Zhang Feng naturally didn't know what was happening here, he was in a daze on the carriage.
There was no electricity, no internet, and even the only person who spoke was gone, Zhang Feng had never felt so lonely.
However, there was one thing that Zhang Feng expected, he thought that he would encounter some situations on the road, such as robbers or something, the more backward and ignorant the place, the worse the public security, and the more difficult it was to manage.
What's more, they are still on the deserted road, and if they really want to encounter it, they can only consider themselves unlucky.
But there was no situation that Zhang Feng was worried about, there were no robbers or anything, and some people occasionally met on the road, and they were all very humble and respectful to Zhang Feng, and even made way for him.
This made Zhang Feng feel a little emotional.
The folk customs of this other world are really simple!
If people in modern society can also have this attitude, then it will be a beautiful society.
In the afternoon, Zhang Feng took a nap in the car.
I heard the middle-aged man say that he will soon be able to go to Red Leaf City, and when he arrives in Red Leaf City, there will be knights and soldiers, he is protected by Red Leaf City, and he no longer has to worry about danger.
Zhang Feng's mood naturally relaxed a lot, and he soon fell asleep.
And when he was asleep, a gust of wind blew, and Zhang Xiaotang appeared in the carriage at some point.
Neither the coachman nor Zhang Feng found out.
Zhang Xiaotang stretched out his hand, gently stroked Zhang Feng's face, and muttered to himself.
"You saved my life when I was at my weakest, and I will repay you, but because I still have something very important to do, I can only leave first, and you wait for me."
With that, Zhang Xiaotang leaned down and bit his lip gently, and a drop of blood fell on Zhang Feng's slightly open mouth.
At the same time, Zhang Xiaotang's appearance has also undergone earth-shaking changes.
Her hair began to grow longer and whiter, her ears began to sharpen, her hands and feet began to lengthen, her breasts began to bulge, and she grew a fluffy white tail......
The most amazing thing is her face, the freckled baby fat is gone, and it has become a delicate face with all kinds of charms, both the softness of the Orient and the profundity of the Westerner.
Especially her eyes full of charm, as if looking at you can hook your soul out.
If Beard were here, he would be amazed, this is the fox orc he has been looking for, the most wanted man on their bounty list!
But it didn't last long, her newly lengthened hands and feet began to retract, and her bulging breasts began to deflat.
In the blink of an eye, Zhang Xiaotang was several sizes smaller.
She was stunned for a moment, and then a little deflated.
"Damn, can't you fully recover your strength!"
After she felt that Zhang Feng had fused that drop of blood, Zhang Xiaotang pinched Zhang Feng's nose.
"I put a mark on you, wait for me."
Sou~
Zhang Xiaotang disappears.
From beginning to end, the middle-aged man who was driving didn't feel anything, and Zhang Feng did the same.
……
A month later.
Deep in a forest in the Sunset Mountains.
Zhang Xiaotang, who was in Lori's figure, dropped the knife that was still dripping blood in her hand, and behind her, dozens of headless corpses knelt on the ground.
And judging by the decapitated heads, these people are orcs.
"My lord, the traitors have been ambushed, what should we do next?"
The one who spoke was a little giant about two and a half meters tall, his bare skin had brown hair, his arms were thicker than Zhang Xiaotang's waist, his face was similar to that of a human, but his face was full of murder, but the two round brown ears on his hands made him less hideous.
It's a bear orc.
Even if the tall and majestic bear orc was half-kneeling on the ground, he was taller than Zhang Xiaotang.
This made Zhang Xiaotang very unhappy, but she also knew that she couldn't blame the bear orcs.
"Are you sure there's nothing missing?"
"Yes, my lord, there are eleven of them, all here."
"Very well, take their heads and warn the others, this is the end of collusion with humans!"
"Yes!"
The orcs stood up, casually skimmed a branch on the tree, and then strung the heads together, and left with a thud.
At this time, a thin rat orc next to him spoke, he had a middle-aged face, but he was as tall as Zhang Xiaotang in the state of Lori.
"My lord, because you were framed by traitors, during this time, we have suffered heavy losses, and your strength has been greatly reduced, but our winter supplies for this year are not ready, if we don't prepare, some clansmen may not be able to survive this winter, and this year's winter is colder than usual!"
"It's winter again!"
Zhang Xiaotang frowned.
Ever since she became their leader, every winter has been a headache for her.
Especially since they were still in the Sunset Mountains, where there was no way to grow any crops, and normally, they could still hunt, but now the beasts don't go out much.
Hunting alone is simply not enough.
Zhang Xiaotang herself is unlikely to starve to death, after all, she is strong, she really can't do it, it's okay to go to the human society to steal something, but other orcs can't.
Not everyone is as powerful as Zhang Xiaotang, orcs are also ordinary people, and they also have children.
Besides, Zhang Xiaotang can't recklessly mess with human society, now her bounty is already very high, if she mentions the bounty again, I'm afraid that bounty hunters all over the world will come to her.
After all, on this side of the Sunset Mountains, humans are in the dominant position.
"Do you have any good ideas?"
Zhang Xiaotang asked the rat orc.
The rat orc suddenly had a bitter face, if he had a good way, he would have solved it a long time ago, how could he still bother her.
"There doesn't seem to be a good way to do it, unless we ask humans to buy food."
Some humans are also in the orc business, but the price is more than 30% higher.
Because these humans are also taking risks, there have been cases in the past where orcs do not give money when they trade and rob humans, and of course, there are also cases where humans set traps and trick orcs to catch them.
Anyway, everyone can't trust each other easily.
Zhang Xiaotang looked at the rat orc and asked:
"How many more gold do we have?"
The rat-orc held out a finger.
"A hundred, so many!"
Zhang Xiaotang was a little surprised.
The rat-orc shook his head.
"Ten? That's a bit tricky! ”
Zhang Xiaotang frowned.
"No, there's only one gold coin left."
Zhang Xiaotang: "......"
"How many more people do we have?"
"Two hundred and thirty-one."
"In other words, this gold coin of ours, if you buy food, can support everyone's ......"
Zhang Xiaotang was still calculating, and the rat orc spoke.
"Three days at most."
“……”
Zhang Xiaotang has the idea of leaving them and running away, all of them are rice buckets!
When Zhang Xiaotang had a headache, the bear orc came back just now.
"Uh, boss, I caught a human."
The bear orc pinched a man with a frightened face like a chicken.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me!"
Zhang Xiaotang glanced at the rat orc.
The rat orcs immediately began interrogating the man.
"Who are you, where are you from, what are you going to do, if you dare to say a lie, he will swallow you directly!"
Hearing the words of the rat orc, and then seeing the blood of the bear orc, this person almost fainted, he really didn't know, there are legendary orcs in this Sunset Mountain Range!
"My name is Quake, I'm a member of the Tempest Horse Thieves, I came to the Sunset Mountains because we were going to attack Red Leaf City, I saw if I could take a shortcut from the Sunset Mountains, and I got lost, I went around the Sunset Mountains for three days, and I came to you, please let me live for the sake of my ignorance!"
This person is none other than the horse thief Quake who left Red Leaf City before.
Zhang Xiaotang was not interested in the human fights and killings, and originally wanted the rat orcs to watch and deal with them, but suddenly she was stunned.
"What do you say? Autumn Leaf City? Which Momiji Castle? ”
The rat orc hurriedly reminded:
"My lord, near the Sunset Mountain Range, there is only one Red Leaf City."
"Yes, yes, it's that one Red Leaf City!"
In order to survive, Quake doesn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, as long as he asks, he will confess, as long as he can live, he won't come to the Sunset Mountain Range if he is killed, who knows that there are orcs in it!
Zhang Xiaotang was very interested in the affairs of Red Leaf City, and by the time Quake finished talking about what he had seen and heard in Red Leaf City, it was already half an hour later.
Zhang Xiaotang and the three of them were stunned.
I've never heard of good food and wine, clean and tidy streets, a town hall that is always recruiting, and a super rich city lord.
And what Zhang Xiaotang cares about the most is that the current city lord of Red Leaf City is called Zhang Feng.
He's the lord of the city?
Is he in danger?
I have to help him!
Seeing that these orcs were interested in Red Leaf City, Quake felt that his chance to survive had come, and he hurriedly said again:
"The benefits of recruiting people in Red Leaf City are particularly good, if I wasn't afraid that our boss would kill me, I would have gone myself, and the city lord is very kind, he also recruits orcs, the treatment of orcs and humans is the same, and you can eat all you can eat every day! There are orcs in Momiji City! ”
These words are naturally Quake's nonsense, there are orcs in Red Leaf City, and Amy, the wolf-eared lady, but he has never seen it at all, and as for the matter of recruiting orcs, it is also fake, because when Zhang Feng issued the recruitment notice, he didn't know that there was such a thing as an orc.
He's just talking nonsense for his life.
But Zhang Xiaotang believed it, because she had seen Zhang Feng, and he knew that Zhang Feng was a kind person.
"Do you remember when I said that I was saved by a human?"
Zhang Xiaotang opened his mouth quietly.
The rat orc was a little surprised:
"Is it ......?"
"That's right, that person is Zhang Feng, he is in danger now, you say, what should I do?"
The rat orcs wanted to say that it would be good for them to handle the affairs of the human beings by themselves, but looking at Zhang Xiaotang's somewhat unkind gaze, he hurriedly changed his words.
"The savior of the adult is our savior, and we naturally have to save each other!"
The bear orcs also spoke.
"Help!"
There weren't too many twists and turns in his mind, he knew that the other party had saved the life of an adult, so he should save him when he was in danger.
"Very good, you let everyone pack up and go to Red Leaf City!"
Zhang Xiaotang's eyes were firm.
"Y-huh? Everybody goes? ”
The rat orc was stunned for a moment.
"Yes!"
Zhang Xiaotang affirmed.
"But we also have orcs who are not good at fighting!"
"Who said we were all going to fight, didn't he recruit people, let's help!"
The rat orcs looked at her a little speechlessly, always thinking that she wanted to entrust these orcs out.
He really wanted to say, don't care if the other party is kind or not, just say that we are all a group of rice buckets, and people will either! Can you afford it?
"However, I have to go and see the specific situation first, you go slowly, if it is feasible, I will call you again, if the news is wrong, we will discuss it again."
Although Zhang Xiaotang felt that Zhang Feng should accept these orcs, this was just her opinion, no one knew what it was, and there might be variables.
She needs to find out first, after all, these clansmen, she said that they are all burdens, but after so many years, she has never left anyone behind.
These more than 200 orcs are actually not much, plus most of them have a lot of strength and don't have many things, so they still packed up their things quickly.
After all, they don't know how many times they have experienced such a thing, and they are used to it, but if they know that their leader is going to send them to the human city, I don't know what they will think in their hearts.
And Zhang Xiaotang has long been on the road alone, oh no, with a desperate look of Quake.
Zhang Xiaotang took out the last lollipop that was left, and his eyes were firm.
"Zhang Feng, I'm here!"
……
Zhang Feng sneezed inexplicably, he rubbed his nose and then looked up, looking at the concrete city wall more than ten meters high, he was a little stunned when he had just crossed over.
"Huh? Is this really my Momiji City? ”
I'm just proposing a theory, and you've actually achieved it?
