Chapter Ninety-Two: Thieves Everywhere
Ten miles away from the city can be regarded as a primeval forest, and starting from here is equivalent to stepping into a dangerous situation. It's just that this is still an official road, and the harm of beasts and monsters is not the most worrying, and it is people who have to be warned.
Since ancient times, people in many places have been busy for the people and focused on farming. In his spare time, he is a bandit and often robs the road.
This custom has a common law both on the ancient earth and on the continent of Darran. That is, it also deceives the good and fears the evil, and when it encounters the soft one, it will attack it in groups, that is, the fat sheep sent to the mouth, how can you let it go. If it's hard, then look at the situation, mercenaries or a large number of guards, it doesn't look easy to mess with, then lie on the side of the road honestly, try not to take the lead.
But if you meet a rich man passing by, then you can make a cameo appearance as a vendor and buy some melons and fruits. But the blade he carried is not well hidden, and the other party sees it, so you can ask the other party if he wants a weapon to defend himself.
In short, being a bandit in Darlan is still very promising, of course, provided that you have a flexible mind and sharp eyes.
If you don't have either of these things, only a fat gall, then congratulations on becoming someone else's fat sheep.
Huangpu Caifeng blinked a pair of big eyes, his eyes were full of incomprehension and doubt, and he looked at Murong Qingtian, the leader beside him, and said: "This is the first wave, why did you meet so many robbers today." ”
Murong Qingtian didn't answer, just shook his head helplessly and sighed.
However, Su Tianming took a few steps forward and said, "This is the fifth time I have met robbers, but I can understand it." ”
Many people around him also nodded their heads at the same time and said, "I understand, too." ”
"Huh...... It's a bumper harvest, catch the big rat ......" Shada was very happy, humming a little song, and kept searching for a few poor people's "family money." ”
"Uncle, okay, we really don't have any money, how can we be robbers if we have money." ”
Shada glared angrily at the leader of the robbers: "You still have the face to say that this glorious profession has been trampled on by you, it doesn't matter if you are poor, but you have to be poor and have backbone, since you want to embark on the broad road of robbery, then you have to have a brain, you said that you have been here for almost ten days, and you don't have a single gold coin on your body, are you still embarrassed?"
A few robbers didn't dare to answer, they just lowered their heads, like frosted eggplants.
Xiaoyao stepped forward, coughed and said: "Since they have no money, then let them all go, to be honest, just your whole body is full of jewels, I can't wait to see the whole body full of gold coins, anyone who sees it will be tempted." ”
"yes, yes, just let us go, we'll never do it again. ......" several robbers argued.
Shada shouted: "Quiet! What are you shouting, you should be punished for doing something wrong, I order you, repair this road, don't think about walking if you can't finish it." Hmph!"
After saying that, he was ready to be a bait on his toes.
Murong Qingtian's head was full of black lines, and he was cleaned all the way through like this, when will he be able to reach Chicheng.
The other team members found it very interesting, especially the children of the Seedlings class, who shouted and directed several robbers to build the road.
Fortunately, those who dare to be robbers will have some fighting spirit, and those who don't even have fighting spirit really don't dare to come out and shake it, that is full of cannon fodder. Strength, coupled with strict overseers, it didn't take long for this section of the road to be sorted out in a smooth manner.
In the end, seeing that the robbers were all tired and lying down, Murong Qing ordered the team to continue to move forward.
Dongfang Xiangning smiled and said, "Guess, how long will the fat man meet the robbers this time?"
Huangpu Caifeng hurriedly said: "I will watch for an hour, or if I am walking five miles, I will definitely meet you." ”
Xiaoyao shook his head and said, "It's not so fast this time. Dare to be a thief not far from the city, those are some brainless rookies, out of the city for thirty miles, and dare to carry so many gold jewelry blindly, a little brain veterans will know that there is a problem. ”
As expected, Shada walked for a long time this time and did not meet robbers again, even if it was a sporadic robber who was exploring the way, seeing Shada so blatantly and walking alone with so much gold, they all knew that there was fraud, and they all knew that many "boring" people were bored, so they would come to this trick to catch "wolves".
Seeing that there was nothing to gain and it was getting late, Shada found an open space on the side of the road, sat down and waited for the convoy behind him.
When Huangpu Caifeng saw Sha Da, he laughed and said: "Fat man, why did you come back empty-handed this time, didn't you say that with your rich appearance, a little gold will keep attracting bandits, and when the time comes, you will do the right thing for heaven?"
Shada's heart, which was originally depressed, had an idea after hearing Huangpu Caifeng's words.
"My tricks are not good, after all, the robbers after here are all veterans, it is better for you girls to dress cooler, I can guarantee that it will not only attract robbers, but even attract flower thieves, and when the time comes, you can also eliminate harm for the people." ”
He was answered not only by a few lightning bolts, but also by fireballs.
Night had fallen, and Murong Qingtian asked Xiaoyao to find a suitable place to camp. In this barren mountain range, magical beasts are rampant, and there are even occasional birds of prey or subspecies of wyverns flying in the sky, so choosing a location is a very important thing.
As a senior member of the High Defense Department of the Heroes Society, Xiaoyao is very experienced in choosing easy points to defend, and it is Chengfeng and Thousand Feathers Forest who assist him.
Both of them are from military families, and they are very familiar with the art of war and marching formations, so they can do some defense and make up for the loopholes, after all, there are a lot of people here, and if there is a slight difference, it is really a hundred deaths.
In the end, I chose a relatively empty meadow, with a ridge not far behind me and a small river on the left.
"The open grass has a wide view, and you can quickly detect danger, so it is suitable for camping when there are many people. The ridge behind you is a good place to take shelter in case of danger, and a place with a water source is a good place to get water, but you can't camp too close to the water's edge, because you don't know if the water will suddenly rise, or if there will be any powerful monsters in the water......"
After Mr. Lu Zhi stationed the children in the Seedlings class, he explained to them some common sense and experience of survival in the wild.
All the personnel arrangements here are commanded by Murong Qingtian, six suspended carriages surround the Qingmiao class in the middle, and the genius class is divided into three groups, forming a triangle to protect the carriage and children in the middle, Xiaoyao and Chengfeng also released their own monster velociraptor to patrol, of course, there is also a lively Erha.
The children lit a bonfire and began to assign tasks.
It is said that the children of the poor are in charge of the family early, and most of the children in the seedling class are only about ten years old, but they are very good at taking care of themselves, cooking, cooking, washing and tidying up tents, etc.
In contrast, the two eldest ladies, Huangpu Caifeng and Dongfang Xiangning, this is the first time they have come out to practice, and they have learned a lot in theory, but in practice, they are full of mistakes and omissions, which makes the children and Shada laugh more than once.
Of course, there were two lightning bolts in response to Shada, and as for the children, forget it, the two girls didn't have such a vicious mind.
In the end, it was the enthusiastic Su Tianming who helped the two of them set up the tent.
Beside a bonfire, Murong Qingtian and Lu Zhi were discussing tomorrow's route and summarizing the situation encountered today.
The somewhat annoyed Huangpu Caifeng also came to the bonfire and said to Teacher Lu Zhi: "Teacher Lu Zhi, you still take care of the fat man, he always provokes robbers like this, when will we go to Chicheng smoothly." You didn't see it, today's sunny brother sighed several times. ”
Murong Qingtian smiled after hearing this, looked at Teacher Lu Zhi and nodded.
After seeing Murong Qingtian's approval, Teacher Lu Zhi said with a smile: "You misunderstood Shada, in fact, this matter was only made after the eldest prince discussed it with Shada. ”
Huangpu Caifeng was a little stunned, and looked at Murong Qingtian for some reason, hoping that he could give an answer.
"Shada told me yesterday that these children are from poor families, and they have only lived in Qingyun City since they were young, and they have never had the opportunity to go far away, and they don't understand the sinister hearts of people. Many people may have heard of the horrors outside the city, but what they have not experienced will always be a blank slate.
So Shada wanted to use himself as bait to catch out those robbers, so that the children realized that there was a sense of crisis, originally we thought that we would meet something more powerful, and even asked Xie Changsheng to answer Shada in the dark. I didn't expect them to be all petty thieves.
I sigh because I am a prince and it is sad to see so many bandits in our country. ”
Huangpu Caifeng was a little stunned after hearing this, and looked at Shada with a blue nose and swollen face in the distance, and was a little embarrassed.
Shada was "repaired" by a few girls today and is healing by a bonfire.
The "Four Wizards" smiled secretly beside him.
Mu Feng said: "Brother Shada, we all know that you are here to teach the children, but you shouldn't say those words to the girls." ”
Shada was a little painful, and said with hissing teeth: "Those two daughters who have never seen the world are just that, why even Nalan Xiaojie came to join in the fun, see her fireball up." ”
"That's still her subordinates' mercy, so the eldest lady of the Demon Emperor Sect, you don't have a long life?"
It was Su Tianming who interjected, and after he saw that Shada was injured, he wanted to come over to help with the treatment.
Armed with the soul armor on his arm, the evil aura of a light lizard emerged behind him. Su Tianming pressed his hand on Shada's back and released his soul technique to heal Shada.
In less than a minute, Shada was healed.
Standing up, moving his muscles and bones, and finding that he was healed, Shada thanked him with his hand.
Su Tianming nodded and went to find Shiqi.
Shiqi watched the wind and grass around him from the branch of a large tree almost at the top.
Su Tianming came to the bottom of the big tree and released a skill to replenish his soul power at Shiqi.
"The night is as cold as water, thank you. ”
Shiqi didn't reply, Su Tianming also knew his character, shook his head and left.
Sha Da, who saw this scene from afar, walked to Murong Qingtian's side and asked him about the situation. Because Shiqi's current position is very important, it has the task of overlooking the whole situation.
In the tournament, although Shada has played against him and has a high opinion of him, it is very necessary to understand the character of a person who holds an important position in the team.
Seeing Sha Da ask about the situation of Shi Qi, Murong Qingtian was very pleased, and being able to ask this question can show Sha Da's strategic vision and enough attention to this team.
It's just that when Murong Qingtian talks about Shiqi, his mood will be a little heavy.
Just seven years ago, Guan Yu led the Flying Shadow Department to raid a stronghold of the Demon Clan, only to find out that it turned out to be a secret laboratory of the Demon Clan. In there, they actually used humans as test subjects.
In a fit of rage, Guan Yu slaughtered all the demons there and rescued the only three humans who were alive. As for what is in the laboratory, no one in the Flying Shadow Department dares to mention it, and they will even grit their teeth when they think about it.
Two of the three humans alive had gone mad and died shortly after. Shiqi is the only one alive.
Shiqi was only ten years old at the time, and he was scarred by the torture of demons as test subjects, and he was very afraid of approaching strangers. Whenever he saw an adult, he thought it was a demon who wanted to kill him again, and his face was terrified, and he even lost control of his emotions.
In the end, Guan Yu asked Su Tianming, who was marching with his father at that time, to take care of him. Su Tianming was about the same age as Shiqi at the time, and he had already learned the soul technique of healing, and when he helped to treat Shiqi, the two of them slowly began to trust each other.
Shiqi had forgotten his name and only remembered his code name, so Su Tianming and others called him Shiqi.
