150. Caravans
At this time, Li Hao gently pressed the protruding dot-like button above the Divine Fire Detector, and with a "stuck" sound, the Divine Fire Detector sounded softly, and the surface light flashed, and a beautiful blue light enchantment popped out in front of Li Hao, like a small, translucent, light blue wall.
"Hey, Dova, Sith, this thing is pretty, isn't it?" Li Hao shouted happily.
Sith hurriedly cooperated, and the little pony patted at a fast speed: "What Lord Li Hao made, of course, is unparalleled in the world!" However, this thing is too mysterious, and I also asked Master Li Hao to introduce it to me, so that I can see the long and long-term knowledge. ”
With the cooperation of the Sith doglegs, Li Hao nodded proudly and introduced: "Have you looked at this wall of light?" The point of light shining on it is me, because my divine fire is now two pieces, so the point of light will appear larger. This time, the purity of the old copper horn's star picking stone is very high, the effect is better than I expected, if within 3,000 kilometers, another divine fire appears, the divine fire detector will alarm me, and then the location of another divine fire will immediately appear on this light wall and the direction pointer indicating us looking. ”
Dowa was overjoyed and said, "In that case, Lord Li Hao, our chances of finding the Divine Fire will be greatly increased!" ”
"Yes, originally I could only sense the Divine Fire at a very close distance, but with the Divine Fire Detector, we can know the location of the Divine Fire from a long distance, and then look for it according to the map."
Li Hao nodded, and said: "Moreover, after absorbing this fragment of divine fire in the giant elephant's body, I recovered some memories of the divine body, and learned that the fragments after the shattering of the divine fire will generally fly to ancient places and places where energy is highly concentrated, which points out the direction we will look for in the future, which is nothing more than a place with many ancient ruins and treasures." ”
At this time, Sith touched his head a little crampedly, and said with a smile: "Hehe, Lord Li Hao, the Divine Fire Detector has also been successfully built." What you promised me before. ”
Li Hao shook his head and smiled: "You, you are a little promising, since I promised you, will I break my promise?" As my servant, your strength will be good for me. ”
Li Hao said again: "The power seed is a thing against the sky, ordinary people can only bear one, you are extremely talented, plus the muscle control technique and the eight poles splitting that I will give you are all growth seeds, you can barely bear two, don't think that you have two power seeds, just be proud and complacent." You must know that if you can't make up your mind and work hard, these two seeds can only lead you to the ranks of ordinary masters, and they will never be like Dova. ”
The Sith knelt down solemnly and bowed deeply to Li Hao: "Your loyal servant Sith, his soul is always under your control. ”
"Good! Calm your mind! Li Hao nodded with satisfaction and drank softly.
Seeing Li Hao's two fingers burst into sword fingers, he slashed towards the center of his eyebrows, and a crack suddenly appeared in Li Hao's eyebrows, and the crack was full of light and dazzling.
A bean-shaped silver light power seed slowly flew out of Li Hao's eyebrow heart, hanging down to the Sith eyebrow center position kneeling on the ground, Sith reverently closed his eyes and waited, the power seed suddenly accelerated and flew into the Sith eyebrow center, and then a humanoid phantom appeared behind the Sith, but it was a leopard eye ring, eyebrows like silkworms, a man with a beard, although the body was short and barren but lean and compelling, I saw that the man grinned heroically, and gently arched his hand at Li Hao, and stepped into the Sith body.
The Sith trembled, his muscles bulged, he jumped up suddenly, and roared loudly: "Clumsy like a madman, iron fist like a meteor!" ”
Then the Sith stepped away from the elbow, pumped the crotch and split the fist, twisted the body and circled the crotch, and rubbed his palms in unison, Shi Shiran set of eight poles and split, like wind and thunder, water and fire one by one, the whole room was full of the whistling sound of the Sith punching, but the strange thing was that everyone in the room could not feel a trace of fist wind. …
After the Sith punched a set, he closed his fist into Kaitian, and his eyes opened and he was shining! Sith was overjoyed and said: "Lord Li Hao, this set of eight-fist fists is really an ancient divine fist, and the heirloom number is invincible, it is really too powerful!" ”
"Do you think that the Divine Fist Li Invincible is called in vain? I think that when the ancient gods were fighting, he punched and died, and his gun was shocking to the world, how many gods were killed and disabled! Li Hao smiled and said: "You also trust the blessing of the seed of strength, and the fist intent has changed from rigidity to softness, but you must practice harder and enter the realm of combining rigidity and softness, yin and yang as soon as possible!" ”
"Don't worry, Lord Li Hao! I'm going to work hard! Sith said, patting his chest.
"It's not enough to practice hard, killing boxing, you have to practice while killing."
Li Hao looked into the distance, and said in a quiet tone: "We, it's time to go on the road." ”
"Silver Coin Business Alliance, the road is far away and the goods are cheap!"
A melodious shout sounded, startling the birds in the big tree next to the intersection. The birds first circled in the sky in terror, and then found that there was no danger to attack it, and then gradually landed on the trees, tilting their heads and chirping at the group of humans, driving strange beasts, pulling a long convoy, and slowly moving along the road.
"Little Carter, let's see if the broth from the magic stove in the car is stewed! It's been almost four hours, almost! If it's okay, hurry up and bring it to the Sith master! Old Carter, whose face was full of wrinkles, touched the gold coin hidden in his jacket, squinted his eyes beautifully, and muttered: "Sith is really a generous and generous person, every time he delivers a meal, he will reward us with a real gold coin!" This time, I made money by going to great luck, and when I return to Silver Coin City, I will have the tuition fee to send your sister to the priest to learn knowledge! ”
Then, a young version of the old Carter, oh no, the little Carter, came out of a big cart with a chimney on the roof. With a towel in his hands, he carefully held a steaming, meaty cauldron and a soft leather satchel containing shiny plates and utensils. Little Carter hurriedly jumped out of the car, and splashed some of the meat juice in the pot on his hands, burning his little face red, but he didn't dare to let go of the cauldron.
"Dead child! You're on the mind! The meat is sprinkled and Lao Tzu beats you to death! Old Carter saw that little Carter was burned, and he quickly took over the cauldron without even using a towel pad, obviously looking at Little Carter's hot red hands with distressed eyes, but he deliberately shouted and scolded with an old face.
"Abba, Uncle Sith is just a slave of the nobleman in the car, and I also saw a blonde woman in the car who was as beautiful as a goddess, beating the legs of the black-haired nobleman." Little Carter blew his hot hand, and laughed nonchalantly: "What a happiness to be a nobleman!" Abba, after earning so much money this time, my sister will have the money to study in the priesthood when I go back, and if my sister has a talent for magic, we may be able to become nobles! ”
Hearing this, old Carter obviously couldn't close his mouth with a smile, but he also scolded: "Bastard, why is such nonsense, hurry up and work!" ”
"Always scolding me!" Carter Jr. squeezed his eyes and grimaced, picked up the pot of broth, and quickly ran to the back of the convoy. The smell of gravy scattered in the wind along the way caused the mercenaries in the other cars to drool.
"Damn, the nobles in the car behind are really enjoying it, eating well every day, and the girls are waiting!" A mercenary with a fierce face smelled the fragrance of the broth along the road and said jealously.
"Fuyun nobleman, just a merchant who resells seafood, if it weren't for the fact that the sea suddenly became extremely uncalm recently, the waves were monstrous, and there were not many ships that went to sea to come back, the caravan manager would let a maritime merchant join our merchant alliance's convoy?" The other mercenary said disdainfully.
The mercenary with a fierce face saw that someone was talking, as if he had found a soulmate, and even scolded: "That's it!" It's ridiculous for a rookie who doesn't know anything to take some seafood like pearl coral and sell them to our caravan as treasures! Damn, it's a good enjoyment, eat and drink well, and I also saw the brunette boy asking the beautiful girls to wash the clean dinner plate with wine! It's too extravagant! Selling that little money is not enough for them to waste! If it weren't for the convoy, I would have called a few people to grab them and find a place to bury them! Hum! ”…
"Hugh is talking nonsense!"
A low scolding, followed by the mercenaries in the car out of a red-haired middle-aged man in a brocade robe, those mercenaries saw that it was him, hurriedly nodded and made a smile to welcome people, the red-haired middle-aged man looked at them with disdain, and then looked at the back of the convoy, scolded: "Take care of my mouth, don't ruin the reputation of our business alliance team!" Let people hear that there is no good fruit to eat! ”
The fierce-faced mercenary nodded and stepped forward, patted the corner of the red-haired middle-aged man's clothes that were slightly soiled when he jumped out of the car, and said with a smile: "Hehe, Leader Bill, you woke up from sleep, and your mouth is dry?" Turning around and snatching the kettle from another mercenary: "I don't have any eyesight, and I don't know how to get into the water when I see the leader waking up and having a dry mouth!" ”
Bill took the kettle, nodded, looked at him approvingly, and looked up to drink.
The fierce-faced mercenary cautiously took the drinking kettle and said: "It's not that the villain can't see it, those maritime merchants are too crazy, they can't make much money selling some groceries, but they still look crazy, and they are holding the aristocrats every day." It was a waste of that money for them to spend. The face of the fierce mercenary became more fierce and said: "Or, Bill leader, the villain will call a few loyal and strict brothers at night to do the work, and then find a pit and bury it, and the gods will not know it, the girls will leave it for your leader, and you can let the brothers drink soup after you finish playing." ”
Bill looked at the murderous mercenary mockingly, until the murderous mercenary looked dazed. Bill smiled: "You kid is usually clever and can speak, if I really don't have you, I'm really uncomfortable." So I'm going to teach you a lesson today. ”
"You think the maritime merchant is what it seems? A brunette with a beautiful woman and a kobold slave? ”
The fierce-faced mercenary nodded blankly.
Bill smiled disdainfully, "You guys." You can only be a mercenary for the rest of your life. Let me tell you, the sea is not calm now, I don't know why the sea tribe is crazy and kills humans, and it is a great luck to be able to come back one of the hundred ships, so have you thought about it, why can the three of them bring a batch of high-grade seafood ashore safely? ”
"On the surface, it's just a child, a weak woman, and a big stupid cow."
"But have you ever seen the weak girls who walk on dirt roads without getting dusty and don't even see any footprints on the road?"
"Their car broke down a few days ago and needed to change the wheels, can you scrap together like that stupid cow and easily lift the car higher than others? Do you know that when our convoy of road scouts and mercenaries met them, that stupid cow was walking easily with four connected carts and full of goods, and which of you had the strength to rival that of a monster? ”
"That black-haired boy, you say he's not a nobleman? Of the nobles you have seen or the nobles I know, which one will he enjoy? Those strange ways of cooking, the habit of spending money like running water, the extremely high requirements for the quality of life, and even the hesitation to wash the dishes with fine wine, which of these is not a real big family can develop habits? ”
"Look at them, if you sell those seafoods, you can sell them for thousands of gold coins, how much have you spent these days? This proves that people don't care about the money at all! This money is just a joke to people, just pocket money, let me tell you, I have talked to the chief of the caravan, and the chief steward has already confirmed that this is the son of a noble descendant of a big family who has traveled abroad, and the woman and the kobold must be the young man's bodyguard and concubine! ”
"That young man has such a strong taste, and kobolds also play?" The fierce-faced mercenary was fascinated by this and asked stupidly.
"Fool, I mean the woman!" Bill said weakly.
At the back of the convoy, Li Hao was lazily lying on Dowa's lap, with a delicate velvet pillow under his neck, making Li Hao more comfortable. Dowa combed Li Hao's beautiful black hair lying on her thighs, and gently pinched Li Hao's forehead by the way, Li Hao closed his eyes comfortably and fell asleep. The huge body of the kobold Sith squatted in the back of the car, cleaning the already bright and white dinner plate, as the water swirled in the dinner plate and was spilled out, a smell of fruit wine wafted out, he was actually cleaning the dinner plate with wine! …
Sith muttered and said, "Lord Li Hao, this is too wasteful, we are almost out of money." ”
"Less nonsense, just do it." After that, Li Hao sat up suddenly, and said stupidly: "I didn't expect these Sea Clan treasures to be so worthless, so they were sold for such a small amount of money. Sea Clan, these poor ghosts! I knew that their treasures were all ingredients on the mainland, so I grabbed a few of their generals and came up to tour the ticket-collecting exhibition! ”
Dowa smiled and said, "Master, don't talk nonsense, the sea clan can't go ashore, they will die if they don't get water and gas for an hour." ”
Sith was still muttering: "I know that I don't make much money and it's such a waste, just eat better, I buy wine even if I don't drink, and I wash the dishes with wine when I buy wine." Dirty bastard, the wine in this caravan is too expensive. ”
"Tell you to stop nagging! Otherwise, I won't let you eat! Li Hao listened to the Sith all the time and became irritable.
Dova smiled and said, "Don't bother the master of the Sith, when we run out of money, we will rob this caravan, they have a lot of money." ”
Li Hao nodded and said approvingly: "That's it, it's still Dowa who understands me." Kill them all! ”
Dowa continued to smile and said, "Yes, there are hundreds of people, only a few masters, and it should be said that it will be easy to kill." ”
Sith turned around and said unconvinced: "Whoever killed and buried, who searched, Lord Li Hao and you are so lazy, it's not for me to dig a pit!" ”
"Bastard, dare to talk back now! I don't think it's been too long since I beat you! Li Hao got angry and scolded: "Hurry up, wash the dishes and fill the meat, I'm hungry!" Do you think I like to be so wasteful? Quality of life is what everyone should require! Especially for a great god like me who fell from the divine realm, do you want me to put up with them to put food on a plate washed with muddy water? You are so unfaithful! ”
Sith saw that Li Hao was really a little angry, hurriedly lowered his head and didn't dare to say more, secretly pursed his lips, filled a large plate full of meat pieces and handed it to Li Hao, and then loaded a plate of meat soup and handed it to Dova, and then squatted in the corner of the car and drank it slowly.
The sound of Cirihu eating, drinking soup and eating meat sounded in the car, which was very terrifying.
Suddenly! Dova raised her head from the plate, the juice at the corner of her mouth flowed to her hair and ignored it, she looked in one direction and was silent for a long time, and then said nervously: "Master, there is a heavy murderous aura over there!" ”
Li Hao raised his head blankly, there was still shredded meat between his teeth.
The most difficult part of the road from the border town to the silver coin city is the road that crosses the mountains and shuttles through the forest.
After several days of arduous travel, the ground began to level out, the trees along the road became thin, and sometimes the magnificent plain scenery below the mountain was faintly visible when stepping on the high ground.
When they stepped on the last hill in the mountains, people's eyes suddenly lit up. A vast and beautiful plain awaited them silently ahead. Along the way, everyone looked at the trees that covered the sky, and where did they think that after crossing this mountain range, the huge plain scenery would be so shocking to people's hearts.
A gentle slope runs down the hill to the plain, and the silky meadows are dotted with unknown wildflowers, a few wild sheep are running lightly and leaping into the distance, and the green grass swaying gently with the wind. Standing on the hill, I watched the plain road stretch and bend into the distance accompanied by countless small hillsides on both sides of the guards. At the end of the road, a city the size of a fingernail can be faintly seen, and the white clouds in the sky seem to be faintly connected.
The caravan began to move slowly towards the plains, and the huge caravan finally passed safely through the desolate and rugged mountains, approaching two hundred kilometers from the border of Silver Coin City. …
Since approaching the plains, the atmosphere of the caravan has become strange, and the mercenaries have begun to tense their nerves. Everywhere you wiped and maintained your weapons and sorted out your leather armor, and the caravan stewards were always gathered together, and the endless meetings were held one after another. And in Dova's keen perception, there are always figures surrounding the caravan with a murderous aura, constantly snooping.
"It's annoying." As he spoke, a black crow suddenly fell from the tree, fell to the ground, and broke into several pieces strangely, and then a big foot stepped over the corpse without mercy.
Dova and Sith slowly followed at the end of the convoy, Li Hao leaned on the cart and looked at the crow corpse that had been trampled by Sith's big feet, he frowned in disgust, and asked Dova in a low voice: "This is also a spy?" ”
Dowa replied softly: "Yes, if you guess correctly, this should be a pet raised by a dark magician, because of its good eyesight, it can fly, and it is generally used for detection." However, it takes a lot of energy and money to raise this kind of pet, and it is rarely raised by lone magicians. ”
"The shadow of the snooping that I found the day before yesterday and last night and this expensive magic pet, I think someone has taken a fancy to this caravan and wants to have a party to play with." Li Hao looked at the hills of different sizes on the plain in the distance, glanced at the gorgeous carriages in the convoy a few times, and nodded very slowly.
"Lord Li Hao, don't pretend to be deep, fools know that robbers are coming, let's run." Sith said with some trembling.
"Run a fart, stupid cow! It's still a long way from Silver Coin City, and if we leave the caravan, no one will be able to cook, and how hard it will be to eat and sleep in the open along the way! I don't want it! Li Hao decisively refused.
After a while, Li Hao saw that the Sith was indeed scared, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, robbers are generally characters who give people experience, and they won't be very powerful." Wait a while for the robbers to come, you two protect me first, and when the people of the caravan are almost dead, go out to save them, and when the time comes, extort some money, we always rob and kill, and have no taste. ”
Sith sighed, stopped talking, and looked around in fear, as if a robber could run out of the darkness around him at any moment.
Ever since the Black Crow was casually killed by Dova, the snooping sensation has finally disappeared around the convoy.
Although there has always been malicious snooping around the caravan, the caravan manager thinks that he is a character who has experienced strong winds and waves, and he has already trained his courage, so it is not surprising. The dozens of elite mercenaries in the center of the caravan in armor turned a blind eye, and there was no such thing at all. And the other hundreds of scattered mercenaries and the small caravan mercenaries who joined halfway, although they panicked, these were also outlaws, old fritters who ate with their heads on the tip of their knives. They also know that no matter who the robbers are coming, they can't hide from them in short. Since the caravan's stewards and elite cavalry were not afraid, and looked as if nothing had happened, they just didn't have such a thing.
The second day of the trekking on the plains.
The robber spies were gone, but the caravan was replaced by scattered civilians with fierce faces and ragged clothes and hoes squatting on the side of the road pretending to be fine, but the sneaky appearance made people recognize at a glance what kind of goods they were. However, seeing the refined armor of the large escort mercenary team and the cavalry in the center of the team, these scattered bandits who were not very professional did not dare to move.
In the evening, the caravan leader suddenly ordered everyone to camp and rest for a day. Although everyone was puzzled and complained that it was only right to approach Silver Coin City quickly in this situation, no one dared to disobey the order of the caravan leader and reluctantly began to camp and rest.
Subsequently, the consuls of several medium-sized caravans were called into the tents in the center of the caravanserais. The meeting was so intense that even the mercenaries outside the tent seemed to be able to faintly hear the quarrel.
"I am familiar with all the small merchants who joined halfway through the caravan, all of them are merchants who have registered with the Silver Coin City Merchant Alliance and are familiar with their backgrounds. I know exactly what their daughter's name is and how old she is! And only the black-haired imp is something I haven't seen before, and they must be the spies of the robbers. When Bill agreed to let them join the caravan, I was against it! Jace, the deputy head of the caravan, said fiercely. At the same time, several caravan consuls sitting in the middle of the tent nodded approvingly, clearly agreeing with Jace.
Bill, on the other hand, retorted unhappily, "Is it useful to say this now?" When they were agreed to join the caravan, Grand Governor Reece nodded too much. Besides, saying that people are spies? Don't forget, the spies a while ago were the first to find out, and then passed the word to us! ”
