Chapter 4: Murder and Goods
It was only at this moment that Zongchen was fully convinced that the metal medallion he had picked up last night was indeed something from the Gelug Corps. However, from today's black market trading street, he also noticed that it seems that it is not only the forces of the Gelug Corps that are looking for it.
Zongchen has completely dispelled the idea of selling this medallion since then, if he doesn't want to die. Those who struggle to survive in the land of the Shire are called the lower people, and no matter what race you come from, as long as you live here, don't try to reach the sky again, or have any contact with other forces. Otherwise, the consequences are diverse, but the end result will be death.
However, even if you don't sell it, you can't keep it. Sooner or later, it will be found. Should it be thrown away? Zongchen had a hint of hesitation in his heart.
Look at this beautiful three-dimensional map and the enticing treasures of miracles marked on the map. The desire in Zongchen's heart still prevailed, and in the end he made a bold decision. But ask for Palsy's consent.
"Palsi, have you ever thought about leaving the Land of the Shire?" Zongchen took the disc into his arms and looked at the stunned Palsi.
When he was twelve years old, he picked up Palsi in the muddy pond. Since then, there has been one more companion and one more mouth. The two of them have only one goal every day, which is to find a way to get some food to satisfy their stomachs. If they hadn't picked up the metal medallion, their fate might have lasted until they died in an unknown fate.
Partey doesn't know what race he is from, but he was born with a special ability - invisibility. Although this stealth is not advanced and can be detected by many high-tech means, it is enough for a down-and-out bakery. It is precisely because of this that the two of them will spend six years without danger.
During these six years, Zongchen and Parsi struggled to survive on each other, seeing each other as their closest partners. Whatever is right will be resolved democratically, and even though there are only two of them, if Palcy vetoes it, the retainers will respect him very much.
"You're looking for something marked on the map?" Parti is simple-minded, but very intelligent.
"If it were possible, I really wouldn't want to stay in the Land of the Shire for the rest of my life." Zongchen is already eighteen years old, and as his mind matures, he begins to understand what pursuit is.
"But have you ever thought about it? If we want to leave the Slan Bazaar, we need a large food stockpile. And it is said that the north is a very cold place, and we also need enough warm clothing. After speaking, Palsi looked at his tattered and thin clothes, and couldn't help but shiver, as if he could feel the cold wind in the north cut his body like a knife.
"That's what you said." Zongchen scratched his head and couldn't help but sigh. Although he has lived in the land of the Shire for so many years, he has a wealth of survival experience. But he never wanted to get out of the Silan Bazaar, and he never had any plans for the future.
"Or else? Since we're ready to leave, how about a big vote? Parcy saw the contradiction on Zongchen's face, and he couldn't bear it, so he boldly proposed.
"You mean?" Zongchen couldn't help frowning.
"Do you remember that damn Inspector Will? He's a miser, and his backyard warehouse has a lot of food stocked, as well as a cart, supposedly from the Gru Legion. Parcy grinned.
"How do you know that?" Zongchen hesitated a little, he felt that Palcy seemed to be a little strange at this moment.
"You can't be unclear how many people have died at the hands of Will over the years, right?"
"If possible, we can also eliminate harm for the people." Parti added again, a strange glint in her eyes.
Zong Chen's heart was shocked when he heard this, as if it was not the Parcy he was familiar with in front of him.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Zongchen stepped forward and touched Palsi's forehead, and found that there was nothing unusual.
Seeing the confusion on Zongchen's face, Parsi couldn't help but scratch at his unkempt hair. There was also some confusion on his face.
"I don't know what's going on, I had weird dreams last night. When I woke up, I forgot all about that dream, but there was something more in my head. Palcy said.
"Dreams?" Zongchen felt that the metal medallion on his chest was a little hot, could it all have something to do with it?
"If we make up our minds, we have to start planning as soon as possible. I always felt a danger approaching. At this time, Parsi's words finally made Zongchen make up his mind.
"Okay, let's do it tonight." Zong Chen's face appeared resolute, and he said to Palsi. After making his decision, Zongchen suddenly felt a little strange, and his thinking seemed to be pushed in some way. Therefore, I have never been so decisive in the past.
Since they were ready to do a big deal, the two took out all the reserve food and took out the soup. Eat and drink enough to stand up to the sturdy Inspector Will.
In fact, there are no laws in the land of the Shire, and there is no law enforcement. This Inspector Will is just a self-appointed title, in fact, he is just a ruffian hooligan, relying on his own way in the Gru Corps, he has been acting as a prestige in the land of Shire, oppressing all the weak people he is capable of bullying.
Actually, Partie is right, I don't know how many homeless people have died under Will's stick over the years, and even the two of them have suffered from the humiliation of this demon.
Thinking of the actions of the night, Zongchen's heart pounded. Palsi, on the other hand, was very calm, not at all like he was in his usual state.
"Are you scared?" Partey asked with a smile.
"You're not afraid?" Zongchen asked rhetorically.
"If I knew that I would die tonight, I would probably be afraid. But if you think about the future we have a wider sky, I won't be afraid. Palsy raised her head and looked out the window, her expression full of anticipation.
"Don't worry, we'll have it." Hearing Palsy's words, the fear in Zongchen's heart gradually subsided, and he was also full of longing for the future.
After nightfall, Zongchen took out a rough dagger from under the bed and led Palsi into the darkness. What the two didn't expect was that although the star of fate had risen, its brilliance was far from enough to illuminate the road ahead.
It wasn't until midnight that Zongchen and Palsi finally arrived at Will's house, and although their bodies were numb by the cold wind, their hearts were on fire.
Through the window, Will could be seen feasting like a beast of prey, and the table was piled high with a rich amount of food, including hot soup, hard bread, meat, and even fruit.
Zongchen and Palsi glanced at each other and swallowed at the same time. Holding back the hunger in his belly, he touched the back of the house.
