Chapter XVII Intelligence

When Blake returned from the arms dealer, he took Taruo with him to find the slave traders, and he said that Taruo scholars could also bargain. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The bounty hunters then expressed their understanding and pushed Taruo out of the hotel.

"Damn, Blake, you're not kind!" Taruo almost couldn't help but pull the other party's collar, "Why didn't I know I could bargain?" ”

Blake was silent for a while, and finally couldn't support it under Taruo's sharp gaze, and confided in his heart: "I think a person has a weak heart......"

Taruo was furious: "Then why don't you go to Manid?!" ”

Blake pointed to a figure in the distance, and Taruo squinted his eyes, and couldn't help but hang a few black lines on his head: Manid was holding the horse and was happy, and it seemed that he had completely fallen into a new world with horses......

Ling Feng sighed: "It is worthy of being a man with a horse in his name, and his taste is novel and unique...... "...... Even so, don't say it......" Tajo's face was a little ugly, so he forcibly turned his head and replied to Blake, "Let's go." ”

After Blake got the support of Taruo's momentum, he suddenly felt that his waist was no longer sore, his legs were not painful, and it was not difficult to go up to the fifth floor in one breath...... Ah no, anyway, I was in good spirits all of a sudden, and I exuded an inaccessible aura like flames.

The difference between me and before I went to this is a little bigger...... Taruo stared at the majestic Black with a twitch out of the corner of his eye, deciding not to dampen the foodie's self-confidence.

"Oh, who is this? What new goods did you bring with you? ”

The slaver in a fur coat looked at Blake and Taruo in surprise, "Or do you need me to sell you some slaves?" ”

Blake waved his hand: "I brought twenty-one water thieves, do you want them?" "As long as it's available, I can eat it." A gleam appeared in the slave trader's eyes, "The two little brothers are very fresh, are they the new bounty hunters?" ”

Ta Ruo nodded: "Yes, come with us to confirm the goods." ”

"Introduce yourself, my name is Ramon." The slave trader rubbed his hands together and narrowed his eyes.

"My name is Blake, and he's Taruo." Blake led the other side towards the makeshift station outside the city of Chanda, and Taruo shrugged his shoulders and followed.

――――I am the dividing line out of the city――――

"Mmmmmmmm

Ramón examines these fresh (?) The water thief was captured, and his mouth praised vigorously: "There are no major injuries, and the appearance is good......"

Suddenly, Ramon pulled his face: "However, the price is ......"

Blake immediately replied, "Thirty dinars." ”

"Twenty dinars." "It's too cheap...... Twenty-five? Blake shook his finger with a disgruntled look.

Ramon smiled and said, "One price, twenty-three dinars...... I'll tell you one more piece of information that might be useful to you......"

Taruo suddenly felt that Ramon's smile was too fake...... Really, full of malice. Blake did not see the slave traders' malice, hesitated for a moment, and replied, "Yes, you can tell me." ”

"I don't think you're a man who wants to be subservient......" Ramon said, glancing at Manid in the distance, then at Tajo, dressed in black robes, "I know a guy with special talents—even though that man is a horse thief and a repeat offender. ”

He smiled maliciously: "But if these are still local slave traders, I don't know if it's true or not, it's all up to you." After saying that, Ramon turned around and waved goodbye: "That guy is now locked up in Riva Chezawa. ”

Ling Feng pursed his lips: "Tsk! It's hypocritical. "After all, this is the merchant......" Taruo shook his head unconsciously as he looked at Ramon's departing back.

"Zhiva Chezawa, Blake." Tajo poked Blake, "If you're going, maybe we can meet Jamila as well......" "Hmm...... All right. Let's go over and have a look, it's not very far anyway. "Blake finally decided," ...... It's just the two of us, so Manid should not bother. ”

The three of them shivered at the same time (including Ling Feng), and it seemed that everyone thought of Manid's strange taste.

Taruo: "Why don't we pack up and leave now?" ”

Blake: "I raise my hands in agreement. ”

Ling Feng nodded from the side.

The next morning, Taro and Blake set out on the road to Zhiva Cheze, and parted with a reluctant Manid in a cold sweat (he had achieved the unanimous friendship of Tajo and Blake's horses in half a day, and this was only for the sake of the two horses), and the bounty hunters said that it was okay to pull people, but only with special skill.

Taruo thought to himself, why didn't I know that I also had special skills, and Ling Feng gave Taruo an answer: "You and Blake are good at trading, and the special friendship between Manid and Ma ......" "I really won't bargain......" Tajo burst into tears.

The two of them left Chanda and followed the trail all the way east (west), passing through a forest full of thieves, a wasteland full of thieves, and a canyon full of thieves...... In short, in this troubled world, the most important thing is thieves......

…… and rebel armies.

"Oh, Vana Traveler! Leave the toll tolls to come! ”

While Tajo was feeling lucky that he had a good ride, a group of untrained Vigia reservists (Note 1) armed with the weapons they had brought out of the army (longbows and longbows, who made the Vigians shoot well) aimed at the two who were rushing towards Zhiva Chezawa.

"We don't want much, one person can give twenty dinars and you can pass!"

Blake's face is very ugly, Lao Tzu has no money! I haven't even received the reward for defeating the water thieves before! He looked at the number of the rebels—twelve in all, eight of whom appeared to be archers, and the remaining three were armed with long knives (the other was yelling), and watched them warily.

Blake glanced at Taruo a few times, and Taruo could only smile bitterly and dig out his wallet, which contained about fifty-five dinars, and just as he poured money from his wallet, the rebels laughed a few times, took out their arrows, and shot straight out.

Blake exclaimed, "Be careful! ”

The corners of Taruo's mouth hooked a strange arc, he had long been on guard against these robbers turning their faces and denying people.

"O spirit of the wind, protect me!"

The hurried incantation was chanted in less than a second and a half, and he threw his wallet on the ground, Taruo pulled out his cross sword with his right hand and knocked an arrow away, twisting his body slightly to dodge the two arrows that might hurt him, and the remaining arrows were deeply inserted under the interference of the wind elves. into the field.

Taruo unhurriedly grabbed his round shield, kicked his feet, and the horse neighed and rushed out like an arrow!

Note 1: Vegia, a country of ice and snow, because the local terrain is mostly snowy, not suitable for growing crops, and the hunting skills of the Vigia people are geometrically multiple in this geometric multiple, so the prestige of the Vigia longbowmen spread throughout Calradia.
