Chapter 293: Asking for Help (4)
"Thanks for the reminder, but I've guessed what happened. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Zhou Dong knew that this kind of person who was inclined to the chaotic and evil camp was not easy to recruit, so he deliberately pressed him first, and then said to the three dwarf brothers and the elves: "Several, it seems that two of my clans should have been detained by the patrol team, maybe there were spies in the tavern just now, or maybe my clan leaked the news, now there should be a team of patrol soldiers arresting my passers-by, I'm afraid we have to find a place to hide first." ”
Although it was just a guess, the three dwarf brothers and the elves first saw that he was confident, and then saw the surprise on the ordinary man's face, and they believed it a little in their hearts.
The three-phase hammer dwarf brothers don't say, they are the dwarves with the heaviest commitment, so they naturally obeyed the orders of their employers, and quickly packed their bags to follow Zhou Dong who left through the back door.
The male half-elf of the two elves was playing with the short bow in his hand, and when he saw his original owner leave suddenly, he naturally hurried to catch up, and the female elf was helpless to follow.
As for the ordinary man who wanted to sell information at first, he hesitated for a few seconds, and when he heard the heavy footsteps outside the tavern and the clanging of his armor, he knew that it was the patrol team coming, and he no longer hurried to the back door.
Moss Stone City was not very large, and the group left in a hurry, but after a few quarters of an hour, they left the city.
At the edge of a forest, Zhou Dong stopped, and the others also looked at him.
"You don't know what to call them?" Zhou Dong looked at the elves.
"Calder, I'm a half-elf, and she's my half-sister Leah." Calder, the male half-elf, immediately replied innocently and innocently.
Zhou Dong glanced at Liya, the pure female elf did not show any displeasure on her face, and seemed to be accustomed to the innocent behavior of her half-brother.
"I won't say much, Calder and Leah, you can try the power and feel of this short bow, and if you are satisfied, use the craftsmanship of this short bow and half of the commission of the three-phase hammer dwarven brothers, I want to hire you to avenge my family."
Zhou Dong said directly, Calder wanted to say something, but the sound of the bowstring beating first sounded in his ears, and then the sound of sharp arrows flying through the air.
After the arrow was fired, Liya couldn't close her pink red lips, and more than a hundred meters away from her, the short arrow of the ordinary wooden arrow penetrated most of the trees, and she just shot an ordinary arrow.
Compared with her innocent and innocent brother, Liya immediately recognized the charm of this short bow, knowing that it was not enchanted, but it already had this basic power, so she immediately agreed to this employment.
A team of elves, a team of dwarves, all seem to be powerful adventurers, and it stands to reason that even if they spend a lot of money, they may not be so easy to hire.
The ordinary man was more interested, he didn't wait for Zhou Dong to speak, and took the initiative to propose: "Then you might as well add me, my main profession is a thief, I believe that I will play a big role in the thief group you are going to." ”
After hearing this, Zhou Dong showed an expression that seemed to be smiling, stared at him for a few seconds, and then said slowly: "Yes, you can, but I want to trouble you to bring your own dry food." ”
The implied meaning in these words made ordinary men's faces slightly unhappy: "Are you worried that I am a traitor?" ”
"What? No wonder they say that there are few good people who love to squint, let me clean him up! When Adilke, the eldest of the dwarves, heard this, he immediately took off the oversized war hammer on his back, and he looked like a complete maniac.
"Wait a minute!" Calder immediately stood between the two and spoke to Adilk
"Now we don't have any evidence that this man is a mole, so it's not good to hurt him like this." ”
Liya was afraid that her brother would suffer, so she changed her words and said, "Dwarf friend, I think this matter should be left to our employer to solve by himself." ”
I have to say that the female elf spoke more tactfully, and with the addition of the opposite sex, the dwarf snorted twice and reluctantly put away the war hammer.
Zhou Dong didn't answer immediately, the scene was cold for a few seconds, but it was enough for him to judge a lot of things.
"I'm very sorry, I didn't mean to doubt you, your help is welcome, I don't know what to call it?" Zhou Dong suddenly changed his attitude, and apologized to the other party gently and politely.
"Jack." The squinting thief, who called himself Jack, closed his mouth after saying this, and stopped talking.
The name Jack has no sincerity, it is probably equivalent to those people in the martial arts world who sign up for the word Zhang San Li Si, and most of the people of Faeron understand what it means.
"Alright, we should let Mr. Jack talk about what happened to Mr. Eric's companion on the patrol's side?" Orseco, the eldest of the three dwarven brothers, opened his mouth and brought the conversation back on track.
Everyone looked at Jack, and the pressure of his gaze forced him to answer.
"Our employer was so clever and had already guessed it...... Well, of course, it's very simple, you may not know, but I have some connections in Moss, and I've heard that the patrol has been colluding with the bandits of the Vortex Mountains, so I don't need to say much about the rest. ”
"That's exactly what happened! You Terrans are really ......" Adirk was about to taunt Jack, who he didn't like, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw his employer, and immediately realized that he was in trouble again for his brainless speech.
Zhou Dong didn't care about this, smiled and waved his hand in time, and said: "Yes, I am also ashamed of them, so I hope you will help me and find a way to rescue my two reckless fellow clansmen first." ”
Hearing this, Jack sneered more than the others, and he said, "I want to ask a question first, how are the two of your kindreds fighting?" If the strength is not good, I think it is better for us to exterminate those thieves first, and those patrols will naturally let your people go if they have no object of collusion. ”
There is some truth to this at first glance.
It's a pity that there are clear-eyed people present, and Olseco, who is wise enough as a priest, spoke again, and he didn't like the thief this time, and his voice was a little angry at Jack, and said: "If the thieves are exterminated, in order to completely clear the evidence, I'm afraid that Mr. Eric's people will only be wiped out." ”
Hearing Olseco's point-to-point analysis, except for Calder, who is not deeply involved in the world, Aldic, who is irritable and does not like to use his brain, and Barna, who has been silent, the rest of the people present are shocked.
In two consecutive sentences, it can be seen that this priest dwarf actually sees the twists and turns of these human intrigues and tricks, which is quite clear and transparent, which is not quite consistent with the image of a tendoned dwarf.
