040 Wealth is moving

Chen Yi got a clue to go to the West Coast Continent, so he didn't want to waste time in Crescent City. Over the next few days, he sold all the remaining fourteen bags of silver coins and exchanged them for gold coins.

Now that he knew that the firms were collecting the silver coins, he did not budge on the price. According to the exchange of ten to one, a total of 14,000 gold coins were exchanged.

After the last transaction was completed, he got rid of the stalker, put the gold coins in the transit space, changed into clothes, mounted the horse he had bought in the past two days, and walked towards the city gate.

"Huh?"

When he reached the city gate, he found that there were many suspicious people wandering around the city gate. I couldn't help but feel a pang in my heart. It seems that he has sold hundreds of thousands of silver coins in the past few days, and the movement is too big.

Most of these people are coming for themselves. Behind the scenes, there must be those chambers of commerce who are playing tricks.

His face remained silent, and when he walked to the city gate, he felt more than a dozen eyes fall on him.

Approaching the city gate, he saw that there were several times more guards at the gate than last time, and there were twenty or thirty people, all of whom were fully armed. For those who go out of the city, the examination is extremely strict.

As soon as he saw this battle, he understood that Viscount Sean was also eyeing him.

Fifteen thousand gold coins is a huge sum of money for anyone. Now, I'm afraid that the well-informed people in the entire Crescent City are waiting for themselves to appear.

"Stop."

One of the guards stopped him, and four or five soldiers with spears stared at him warily. He believed that if he made any move, the guns in their hands would stab him.

He looked a little uncertain and said, "What do you mean by that?" ”

The guard said with a straight face, "There is a gold coin thief in Crescent City, who has stolen tens of thousands of gold coins from the major chambers of commerce. Therefore, let us strictly investigate those who go out of the city. Open up your baggage and check it out for me. ”

"Coin thief?"

Chen Yi sneered in his heart, these nobles and businessmen were really shameless enough.

"Hurry up, I'm in a hurry to get out of town." He said expressionlessly, handing over the burden behind him.

Seeing that he was willing to cooperate, the guard was also relieved, he was a person with vision. The person in front of him was riding a good horse, and just looking at his posture on the horse, he didn't look like an ordinary person. With a delicate knight's sword, he may be a quasi-knight, or even a full-fledged knight. When it really conflicts, the first one who is unlucky is himself.

As soon as he took the burden, he knew that it was not a gold coin, and the weight was too light. However, he still opened the bag in public, and there were some clothes and dry food inside.

Several soldiers next to him looked at it and relaxed.

This man only brought a burden, and he alone and a horse, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible to hide more than 10,000 gold coins.

"Can I go?" Chen Yi took back his burden and said coldly.

The guard was about to let him go, when suddenly a soldier trotted over and whispered something in his ear. He frowned, looked at Chen Yi, and said, "The city lord wants to see you, so you can come with us." ”

Chen Yi watched as the four or five soldiers in front of him raised their weapons, and there were many soldiers surrounding outside. I can't figure out where I showed my flaws.

At a glance out of the corner of his eye, he saw a person who looked like a general standing next to a person who looked like a general on the edge of the city wall, and he looked a little familiar.

"Is that the guy from the Chamber of Commerce just now?"

He quickly remembered that when he had just exchanged the last batch of silver coins with a chamber of commerce, it was this guy who had been following him.

It should have been him who recognized himself in some special way.

"In that case......

Then you go to die!

Chen Yi's eyes shot a terrifying light, and he suddenly drew his long sword and swung his sword to slash. The guards standing in front of him were shocked and hurriedly raised their swords to block.

When there was a loud bang, the guards were slashed out with swords and people.

As soon as Chen Yi lifted the reins, the spurs on the back legs of his boots were topped, and the horse that stepped down was in pain, and rushed out at a faster speed.

Drink –

Several soldiers around him shouted in unison, and the spears in their hands stabbed at the horse he was riding at the same time, showing excellent tacit understanding.

Chen Yi took a deep breath, swiped the long sword in his hand, and like lightning, he swung away the five spears that stabbed at the same time. The horses picked up a little speed, and rushed towards the soldiers who rushed to support.

"Get out!"

He let out a loud shout, raised the long sword in his hand, and blocked all the weapons that stabbed him.

Although these soldiers were well-trained, they were still frightened in the face of a rushing horse, and no one dared to stand in front of them, so they flashed to the side, and could only harass them slightly with their weapons.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Yi had already rushed out of the city gate, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Although he had the strength of a knight, it was the first time he had faced more than a dozen soldiers with weapons in hand. Watching a dozen spears pierce over, the pressure was enormous, and it made his adrenaline surge.

"Aim, prepareβ€”"

He was reminiscing about the battle just now, when suddenly, he heard a voice behind him, and suddenly had a bad premonition, and when he turned around, he saw a row of soldiers holding bows and arrows, and the bowstrings were already full.

"I'm the next Ao!"

He cursed secretly, and heard a voice from behind, "Release!" ”

Whoosh –

The sound of the bow and arrow breaking through the air was like a talisman, and he reacted quickly, tearing off the shield tied to his horse's back and blocking it behind him.

The shield shook a few times, blocking a few incoming arrows.

"Uh-huh"

The straddled horse let out a painful neigh, and suddenly rushed into a frenzy.

Whoosh –

Soon, the second round of arrows arrived, and all the arrows aimed at Chen Yi were blocked by the shield, but the horses below him let out a few more painful neighs.

At the city gate, the general saw that a man and a horse had run out of range of his bow and arrows, and waved his hand to stop the soldiers. With a serious expression, he summoned a soldier and said, "The other party has the strength of a formal knight, go and inform Lord Moog." ”

"Yes."

At the same time, those who had been hovering around the city gate all went back to inform their respective forces.

After a while, a knight on a black horse was the first to leave the city and chased out.

Then, several more groups of people left the city.

…………

After leaving Crescent City for some distance, Chen Yi tightened the reins and stopped. The horse's injuries were examined, and it was bleeding from five arrows stuck in its body.

He snapped the shaft of the arrow and briefly treated the wound. Then he touched the mane on the back of the horse's neck and said, "Anyway, you are also the first animal I raised, and I can't let you die so soon." Go ahead, I hope you can meet a better host. ”

With that, he patted it on the butt and let it go, watching its figure disappear into the woods. He turned and left in the other direction.

PS: It's the weekend, so let's ask for some recommendation tickets.
