Chapter XXVII: Leng Eleven 2
Lin Ruo's eyes widened, looking incredulous, but he was snickering in his heart: The biggest profiteer in the world, but standing here, what is it to slaughter a penny? She is doing the business of empty gloves and white wolves every day, and she has been slaughtered, and she is grateful to Dade and grateful, and there are a large number of fat sheep rushing to let her slaughter!
Of course, Tao Fu treated this prospective princess as a lady in the boudoir, and when he saw her unbelievable expression, he immediately began to talk eloquently, talking about his experience of fighting wits and courage with profiteers, that is, his eyebrows were flying, spitting was flying, and the guards around him all turned their faces, and couldn't help but sigh that this prospective princess was really good-tempered and simple.
While talking, walking around the corner, Tao Fu familiarly followed a bearded man and greeted him: "Yo, Brother Cao, I haven't seen you for a long time, you have a lot more goods here!" ”
Lin Ruo glanced at it, it was located between the outer walls of the two houses, but it was a wide open space, which seemed to be a relatively large place in the West Market to sell slaves. can set up such a big stall in the West Market, this Boss Cao seems to be a bit of a prominent figure in this West Market.
The ground is slightly hot in direct sunlight. Wooden cages lay on the ground near the outer walls on either side, containing sturdy men with bared teeth, ragged clothes and unhealed whiplashes on their bare dark skin. Others are not kept in cages, but are chained with ropes or chains.
Seeing the unbearable look on Lin Ruo's face, Tao Fu hurriedly said a few words of relief.
The bearded Boss Cao raised his eyelids slightly, and saw that the person who came was Tao Fu from King Rong's Mansion, so he immediately changed a flattering smile and greeted him: "Isn't this Tao Ye?" What's the matter, the palace is short of people again? You see, these are new arrivals, if they can be picked by Tao Ye, it will be their blessing! Well, this is ......."
Looking at the figure behind Tao Fu, he couldn't help but take a look.
Tao Fu hurriedly blocked Lin Ruo behind him, and said in a low voice: "This is our prince's friend, he just arrived in Bian'an, and he wants to find a few guards, and he must have a kung fu foundation." ”
Boss Cao understood, and hurriedly bowed: "I don't know what to call this son?" ”
"My surname is Wang, the king of three horizontal and one vertical." Lin Ruo opened the paper fan casually, slightly covered half of his face, lowered his voice, and responded lightly.
"Oh, it turned out to be the prince!"
"Boss Cao, hurry up and bring out the best of you here, so that Wang Gongzi can pass by."
"Okay, okay."
Boss Cao haha, and immediately ordered someone to bring out five young and strong men, and respectfully brought them to Lin Ruo, his flattering smile was particularly piercing.
Through the paper fan, Lin Ruo glanced at the five people lightly, and on the cold faces of the second and third people counted on the left, the unruly gaze was particularly eye-catching, and at a glance, it was not like the other three who were convicted or trafficked here. Fine beads of sweat oozed from his dark skin, but there were no scars on his body. Of course, it can also be understood that the trafficker boss attaches great importance to such good goods.
Catching a glimpse of Ah Fu's gaze sweeping over the two of them, Boss Cao didn't dare to look directly at the gaze of the two, and the corners of his mouth behind the paper fan rose imperceptibly, and beckoned to Tao Fu.
Tao Fu hurriedly put his ears together, and Lin Ruo said softly, "You can help me pick it." ”
Tao Fu nodded, pretended to turn around in front of the five people a few times, looked at them carefully one by one, and let them show their fists and feet, and finally picked the second and third people from the left.
Tao Fu continued to bargain with Boss Cao seamlessly, and finally bought the two of them at a price of fifty taels.
Lin Ruo sighed in his heart, Prince Rong sold his secret guard so cheaply, it really made people feel a little "chilling"!
Tao Fu handed over the deed of sale of the two to Lin Ruo, and asked tentatively:
"Childe, let's go back now?"
Lin Ruo's eyes looked at someone curled up in the corner, and said lightly: "Don't worry." ”
Lin Ruo stepped forward and walked towards the man in the corner.
The man huddled in the corner, clean coarse cloth clothes. His face was not visible in the shadows, but the cold eyes were particularly striking, as if with disdain for everything around him.
Tao Fu didn't have time to stop him, so he could only quickly follow Lin Ruo over, frowning at the same time, and asked Boss Cao what was going on with his eyes, and Boss Cao was also at a loss.
This person appeared here yesterday for no apparent reason, and I don't know what his identity is. But the whole body of that person seemed to be covered with a layer of cold ice, arrogant and lonely, especially the pair of Yin Owl eyes full of murderous intent, which made people dare not approach.
Boss Cao has been in the West Market for more than ten years, and he has seen all kinds of people, etc., and he can see at a glance that this is a guy who can't be messed with, so he didn't dare to drive him. Fortunately, this strange man stayed in the shadows all the time, motionless, and did not affect his business, so he treated the well water as not the river water, and let him stay.
Unexpectedly, it actually made this unknown and bottomless "boy brother" curious.
Lin Ruo stepped forward slowly, and the man suddenly moved, and the murderous intent in his eyes was bound to appear.
Lin Ruo was startled, stopped, and immediately found that his gaze was not looking at himself, but behind her, and then turned around, signaling Tao Fu and the guards to retreat.
"Less...... Childe, this ......"
Lin Ruo lowered his voice and said, "It's okay, stand down." ”
Tao Fu and the guards all looked at each other, and could only take a few steps back. The killing intent in that man's eyes suddenly faded a little, and Lin Ruo was even more sure that he was not hostile to him.
Lin Ruo squatted down and looked at the man in front of him silently for a long time. The man's gaze did not make contact with her, allowing her to look. After a long time, Lin Ruocai asked, "This hero, I don't know what to call it?" ”
Swordsman?
It seems that no one has ever used this word to refer to him.
The man moved slightly, as if he had found a more comfortable position against the wall, and after a long time, he said briefly: "Leng Eleven." ”
Tao Fu couldn't help but shudder, the surname "Leng" really fits this weirdo.
Just as he wanted to step forward to persuade Lin Ruo, he raised his footsteps, and suddenly a creepy feeling hit him again, and those murderous eyes were fixed on him again.
Lin Ruo turned around and waved his hand at him again, even though Tao Fu was worried about the comfort of the princess-to-be, he had no choice but to give up. Imperceptibly, he glanced at the two newly purchased guards and motioned for them to be more careful.
These small actions naturally did not escape Leng Shiyi's eyes, and he sneered in his heart.
Tao Fu turned his head and was about to ask Boss Cao, but found that Boss Cao was frozen in place, with an expression of disbelief in his eyes, and even with distorted fear, he looked at this strange man in the shadows in horror.
Could it be that this strange man, what is the origin?
Tao Fu secretly moved in small steps, and seeing that Leng Shiyi didn't pay attention to it, he continued to maintain the posture of approaching Boss Cao, and then asked softly: "Old Cao, why do you have such an expression, do you know him?" ”
But Boss Cao didn't answer him, didn't even look at him, as if he didn't hear his words, and swallowed his saliva in fear.
