Chapter 359: A Giant Eagle of One Hundred Thousand Taels of Silver
The guide's name was Badan, and he was a standard Westerner, with some dark skin and a curly white beard. Ba Dan is nearly forty years old, and he doesn't want to leave Longquan Pass, so his wife and children have followed. But without money, he had no choice as an outsider.
The conditions given by Zhou Zhe are very good, silver, land, livestock, and a certificate that you can live in Star City for a long time.
There is no threat, but Ba Dan also understands that this is life money, and the best choice in life is no choice, so that you will have the courage to go all the way to the dark.
"When you arrive in the Western Regions, if someone is looking for trouble, don't be polite, do it if you can. Otherwise, trouble will continue unless you give them all your possessions. "On the way, Ba Dan told everything about the Western Regions, even if he had already said a lot.
Zhou Zhe nodded, and he was not ready to be polite: "Badan, why don't they kill people and sell goods?"
Badan's tone did not dare to bring contempt, he had the special logic of the people of the Western Regions: "Sheep can only shear sheep every year if they live." As long as you don't resist, they will generally only take half of the goods. You are strangers, it is not clear, it is not impossible to kill people and goods. ”
Liu Maosheng was disdainful: "This relationship is a half-orc apprentice, and they did it in previous years." But if they come to trouble us, I'm afraid they will lose their lives. ”
Ba Dan knew that the strength of everyone was strong, but the strong dragon could not suppress the head snake
"In the Western Regions, the robber may be an old farmer who sells you melons and fruits in the morning, or he may be a kiln sister who has served you at night. However, if the people in the Western Regions are robbed, they will be left with all kinds of marks, and if they understand, they will not start. But the thief and the kiln sister will not leave any mark. ”
Zhou Zhe found it interesting and said to everyone
"Sooner or later, we will encounter a robbery, what mark shall we make?"
Wang Rui was also interested in this: "Skeleton Dragon! What he was referring to was naturally the domineering icon on the chest of the Demon Dragoon.
Wei Lan laughed: "This is a good idea, the prestige of the Demon Dragon Rider should use our logo." ”
If the minority obeys the majority, then most of the time, there is no need to vote.
Zhou Zhe looked at the helpless Yuan Yuan and Suo E Duan Xiangsi, and said, "You can also leave your own name, the wolf king Duan Xiangsi will visit here." It's pretty domineering. ”
As soon as he said this, Duan Xiangsi came to his senses: "I should leave a heaven-shattering handprint and then engrave words in the middle." ”
"Hahaha!"
Along the way, there are stops and stops, but the pace is not slow. The group brought ample supplies, and with Ba Dan as a guide, they didn't have to worry about getting lost.
Twenty days later, when they left the last oasis of sand and meadows, it meant that they had entered the endless sea.
For two days in a row, everyone was walking in the desert, and although many people knew that Zhou Zhe was in front, they also muttered in their hearts whether they would get lost in the desert.
Ba Dan didn't seem to be worried at all, Liu Maosheng asked the direction of the road, and Ba Dan said in a psychedelic tone
"When you get to the desert and smell the oasis in the sky, you won't get lost. ”
Xin Chai put on a white veil, and he was most annoyed by this kind of god's chatter
"Speak human words. ”
Ba Dan was aggrieved like a forty-year-old child: "After walking in the desert for decades, I know the road even with my eyes closed." ”
Liu Maosheng pursed his lips disdainfully, and gave Duan Xiangsi a look that I said I would say.
In the desert, all kinds of snakes and rats, poisonous insects infested from time to time, and in the sky, there were occasional giant eagles flying high, highlighting the status of the sky overlord.
Seeing the giant eagle, Ba Dan also reverently took off his little felt hat and bent down to bow, Wei Lan glanced at him speechlessly.
Casually, he raised his bow and arrows.
The fierce bird and the dragon have been killed, and the giant eagle is nothing.
Badan got up.
But there was a wail.
As far as the eye can see, the giant eagle that previously demonstrated the supremacy of the sky fell straight into the distance like a kite with a broken string.
"Something's wrong, there's an accident. Ba Dan was a little anxious, and he paced back and forth with a small felt hat in his hand.
Zhou Zhe smiled: "It's just an eagle." Could it be that it still has accomplices? Xin Chai, I remember that you also have a blue bird, how is it better than this giant eagle?"
Xin Chai shook his head: "The blue bird is not comparable to the giant eagle, the giant eagle is a fourth-order spirit beast, and its strength speed is faster than that of the floating wanderer. ”
"Well, it's a pity. If only I could find the Eagle's Nest. Zhou Zhe sighed, otherwise, there is a spirit beast flying in the sky, and the result will be twice the result with half the effort.
Yang Jue didn't feel a pity, he reminded: "The giant eagle is not easy to tame, the eagle has heard of it! This thing is to subdue him." ”
Seeing that a few people didn't care at all about their words, Ba Dan really didn't know if he should say that they were too bold, and he looked a little worried
"If it were an ordinary giant eagle, I wouldn't bow it, that giant eagle has a blue ribbon tied to its feet! It's the giant eagle of the prodigal son of the Western Regions, I'm afraid we're going to be in trouble." ”
"What is the prodigal son of the Western Regions?" offended people as soon as he came to the realm of others, it seemed that this was not good news, Zhou Zhe thought about it, and waved his hand towards the landing point of the giant eagle.
Ba Dan said: "That is a group of people, led by the so-called sword murderer, named Lan Tianyu, is a number of strong people in the eastern part of the Western Regions, and there are hundreds of people in the horse team under his command, known as the prodigal son of the Western Regions. This area is the boundary where they frequent, and eighty percent of them are nearby. ”
Lan Tianyu, who fought with a sword, felt that this was not a person to deal with when he heard this name.
Zhou Zhe and Yang Jue glanced at each other, Zhou Zhe's eyes were cautious, but Yang Jue had a feeling of eagerness.
Zhou Zhe guessed that this was probably suffocated in the capital.
But 500 people, no matter how strong they are, how strong can they be? Zhou Zhe also relaxed his vigilance, but Wang Rui still cautiously ordered to start the battle formation.
The group drove across the desert and approached the landing point of the giant eagle.
Before they reached the place, they saw a group of people and horses in the distance, riding horses and carrying a caravan of camels full of goods, forming a circle. The first person was half-kneeling on the ground, and his blue clothes were very conspicuous, like a sea in the desert.
Seeing a group of people with the same number of people spread out in battle formation, the cavalry of the camel caravan began to disperse.
"The one in blue must be him. "There is no need to explain Badan, the blue clothes are Lan Tianyu, there is no doubt.
"In Xia Lantian Yu, but you killed me Flying Eagle?" The voice was directly transmitted with spiritual power, even if there were obviously more people on Zhou Zhe's side, was there any timidity in this voice.
Yang Jue smiled
"It seems like a hard stubble. ”
Wei Lan is a person who shoots eagles, and naturally, she also dares to take responsibility
"I shot it, but I just watched the giant eagle itch for a while. How do I know that it is a human eagle, tell me the price, and I will accompany you. ”
Lan Tian Yu let go of the giant eagle's corpse, revealing the meter-long sword at his waist and shouted
Do you know how long it took me to come up with such a piece? Unless you accompany me for 100,000 taels of silver, remember what I said, it is cash silver, which can be converted into gold. ”
"Ahh
Everyone looked at Ba Dan and seemed to be mocking, you blow him so strong, take the money!
Badan didn't care what they thought, he just muttered
"That's because there are a lot of you, and if there are few people, he will definitely surround him. ”
When Zhou Zhe heard it, he was happy
"If you find someone to fight him fairly, will he agree?"
Wei Lan didn't hear what Zhou Zhe said, the basket of her bucket, naturally she was going to come forward to settle it, she shouted
"There is no silver, and there is no royal one, but there are spirit stones, but is the price of your eagle too high?"
"Gao? Then you can boil out one? Spirit stones can also be, say okay, I will only accept natural spirit stones, the size of quail eggs, and I won't lose you." Or give me the bow in your hand, it must be a bow produced in Hexi! Lan Tianyu's words were clear, but the demon dragoons on Zhou Zhe's side burst out in a whisper, without him, Shen Deyin's bow is a priceless treasure and a symbol of the honor of the demon dragoon.
"What are you laughing at? What do you mean by shooting my eagle and still not giving me money? Isn't it great to rely on a lot of people? Or you and I will go head-to-head! If you lose, I won't say anything, and if you win, your bow will be mine. Lan Tianyu seemed to be enraged by the sergeants, and rode up to the front, not afraid to distance himself from the prodigal sons behind him.
Zhou Zhe and Yang Jue are making a bet with Ba Dan! Yang Jue and Zhou Zhe think that if they ask Lan Tianyu to fight him alone, they will definitely not dare, while Ba Dan thinks that Lan Tianyu will take the lead in challenging it.
As a result, the voice came.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and Yang Jue said to Badan
"If you win, keep the account first, and yours will be indispensable anyway. ”
Ba Dan is very magical, it seems that Lan Tianyu gave him a long face: "I just said, there are also masters in the Western Regions." ”
Just when Ba Dan's spirit was vivid, Zhou Zhe spoke
"Let's find someone, you can find someone, and of course you're fine. But the bow can't be gambled with you, the bow is a symbol of the honor of the sages. How about we bet another 100,000 taels of silver? Your eagle, I'll pay you 100,000 taels anyway. Would you like to have a contest with my brother? ”
Zhou Zhe knew that Yang Jue's skills were unbearable, and now that Lan Tianyu was in front, it was completely worth spending some money on such a good sandbag.
After all, on the desert, people eat horses and chew and rob, and they can't grab too much, what should they do? Bringing jewelry and spices from the Western Regions over and back and forth can maintain the scale of these 500 people.
Moreover, now it seems that the people of Hexi are very rich and do not worry about sales. And when it is transported to Hexi, it can be paid with one hand and delivered with the other.
"I'm afraid you won't make it. Lan Tianyu then greeted his brother, as if he had received a great benefit, and after raising his fists high, he ran towards Zhou Zhe.
