Chapter 6: Entering the Western Continent
"If you don't speak, I'll take you as a promise!" Buchen said with a smile.
Pope wiped his tears with a gold handkerchief, and said with a sad face, "Why don't you kill me!" ”
Buchen was angry and funny, "I said, isn't it 250,000 gold coins?" As for it? ”
Pop nodded cautiously, it was a quarter of his fortune.
"Alright! Then I'll kill you! As he spoke, he raised his horse lance and threw it at Pop's head.
Seeing this, Master Pope shrank his neck in fright and closed his eyes.
It's just that death has not yet come.
After a long time, Pope opened his eyes and found that Buchen was looking at him with a smile.
"Do you still want to die?" Buchen asked.
Pope shook his head with a bitter face, he thought a lot of things in that moment just now, the voice and smile of his wife and children, and his reluctance to give up on a better life, but he didn't think of money.
Buchen grinned, "That's right! Money is something outside the body, you can't bring it in life, you don't take it in death, and it's not worth losing your life for it! And if I had killed you just now, would your 500,000 fortunes still have a dime to do with you? ”
Pop continued to shake his head, if he hung up, the money would naturally have nothing to do with him. In fact, only a small part of what could be left in the hands of his wife and children, and most of the rest would be divided up by his greedy relatives.
"So! Rather than let your family property fall into the hands of others, why don't you give half of it to your savior! Isn't that the reason, you say? Buchen continued to do the ideological work of Master Pope.
"Just Yien Gong!" Pop learned the etiquette of the Seris and bowed deeply.
"Well, the children can be taught!" Seeing that Master Pope finally gave in, Buchen's face bloomed with a smile, but this slut still pretended to be forced.
Pop's cheek twitched, but he didn't say anything.
"Then let's leave for your house!" Buchen proposed.
Pope smiled bitterly, if you want to divide his family property, don't you have to go to his house? But that's fine, he doesn't have to worry about safety for the rest of the way, and the brown-clad swordsmen he hired are far worse than the devil and his two companions.
"I don't know the name of Engongzun?" Pop asked with a dry smile, he really couldn't squeeze out a natural smile now.
Buchen thought for a moment and replied: "The mountain people have names and no surnames, so you can call me not a minister!" His "world" surname is a big problem, and you can't just let people know.
"As for the two ......," Buchen beckoned to the elven sisters and motioned for them to come, "the blonde one is called Firosil, and the blue-haired one is called Estelle. ”
"I see." Pop bowed to the elven sisters again.
"Henry......" Fei Fei and Ai Ai walked up to Buchen and looked at him with some hesitation.
I don't know what they mean, I just think I'm too ruthless!
But he's not in a rut! At present, he has ten copper coins in his waist, or five Ceris copper coins and five copper coins from the Western Continent, and eighty percent of them can't even last a day when they reach the Western Continent. There is such a great fat sheep right now, how can you do it if you don't seize the opportunity to slaughter it?
And he was also thinking about getting his equipment ready, and then asking the blacksmith master to order a few fire (harmony) guns, how could he do it without a lot of money?
"It's okay, it's Pop, ah, you're called Pop, right?" Buchen turned his head and asked Master Pope halfway through his words, and he heard the other party's name when the other party swore just now.
After receiving the affirmation of Master Pope, Buchen turned to the elf sisters again and continued: "This is Pope's voluntariness, you see, how sincere and happy he laughs? As he spoke, Buchen patted Master Pope's fat face with a mallet.
Forced to be helpless, Pop forced out an ugly smile.
It's just that this obviously can't convince the elf sisters, and Fei Fei was about to say anything, but she didn't expect to be interrupted by Buchen.
"Fei Fei, I'll give you a fire (harmony) gun when the time comes, do you want it?" Buchen looked at her with a smile and asked.
"Yes, definitely!"
As soon as she heard the fire (harmony) gun, Fei Fei's eyes were immediately filled with little stars, and she instantly threw the extra sense of justice in her heart out of the clouds.
At that time, although Xiaoxi used an AR-50 anti-materiel sniper rifle to break Buchen in two and scared her half to death, the power of the gun also left an extremely deep impression on her and became the artifact she dreamed of in her heart.
"Is it the kind of gun that Xiaoshijin has?"
The green tendons on Buchen's head jumped, but he still remembered that he was beaten in two by Xiaoxi, and his teeth itched with hatred when he thought about it, Fei Fei, this Nizi really has a bit of a pot to mention that pot......
But now in order to appease her, he can only endure it.
"It's a little different, but it's not much." Buchen replied with a dry smile. He had seen the drawings given to him by Xiaoxi, although he also had a long barrel + scope, but the power and range of the flintlock rifled rifle were far worse than those of the AR-50, and it could be said that it was one in the sky and one underground. But fooling a layman like Fei Fei is enough.
"That's great!" Fei Fei clapped her hands.
Buchen grinned, so that Fei Fei would be done, as for Ai Ai? This girl doesn't take the initiative to talk to herself at all now, although this usually makes him very depressed, but now it's convenient.
“ok! Without further ado, let's go now! ”
Buchen greeted. They killed so many Holy City troops, although these people hid their identities to rob, but considering that all the armies are a group of short guards, if the defenders of St. Bruno Pass find out that Pao Ze died at their own hands, although they will hinder the king's edict in the city, and it is not easy to seek revenge openly, they will inevitably find ways to retaliate, which will be a lot of trouble.
Therefore, it is better to leave the other party's territory as soon as possible before the other party discovers these corpses.
The brown-clothed people obviously thought of this, and they all nodded busily.
"And what about the horses?" Fei Fei pointed to the mounts of the bandit knights behind him, who had killed all the other men, but most of the horses had survived.
Buchen frowned, he had planned to find himself a decent mount among these horses, but after seeing that those horses had a brand on their butts, he dispelled this idea. It must be the military imprint of the Holy City Kingdom, and they will pass through the St. Bruno Pass under the rule of the Holy City Kingdom, and if the other party finds out that he is riding the other party's horse, it will definitely attract suspicion.
"Either you will be chained to the tree by the side of the road, or you will be killed!" Buchen said.
"That'...... Let's tie it all to the tree. Ai Ai said, her face was a little pale when she heard Buchen say that she was all killed.
Buchen glanced at her, and smiled bitterly in his heart: O woman's kindness!
But it won't take long to waste left and right, so let's tie the tree to the tree.
Ten minutes later, Buchen and the Pop caravan were on their way again.
But this time, instead of moving forward as slowly as before, they rushed to the road with all their might.
There was no word all the way, and the distance of less than twenty miles was one and a half hours.
"It's fucking tall!"
Buchen looked up at the eight-zhang high blue-gray city wall and couldn't help but exclaim.
By this time, Pop had already stepped forward to talk to the gate guards, and they were waiting at the back of the line.
"It's a pity that we've never experienced war." A brown-clad guard next to him pouted.
Buchen was shocked when he heard this, and turned his head to ask him, "Has the Cyris Empire never hit here?" ”
The brown-clad guard smiled and shook his head, and spoke for him in detail.
It turned out that the Seris Empire did not take a step further after the destruction of the Osan Empire, let alone before it hit this pass, and it didn't even go out of the competition level on the other side of the Osan Straight Road a few times.
"Why is that?" Buchen asked curiously.
"Because there are elves!" The guard glanced at Fei Fei and Ai Ai, "This Origin Mountain Range is a forbidden area for the armed forces of human countries, once a large army enters, the elves will think that the other party has invaded their territory, and then the whole country will mobilize to come to crusade, and in the mountains to fight with the elves, no country has a chance to win." ”
"I see." Buchen nodded in realization.
As they spoke, Pope accompanied a tax collector back into the queue and rummaged through the cart.
Buchen had already seen it before, and the cars were loaded with some specialties of the Ceris Empire, silk, tea, porcelain, or something. Nothing particularly valuable.
A moment later, the tax collector departed, and Pop came to them.
"Falsely accused again?" Buchen saw that Pop's face was not good, and asked with a smile.
Pope nodded, "It's two percent heavier than the previous tax." But in my heart, I was saying: No matter how ruthless they are, they are not as ruthless as your old man!
Buchen sighed twice, "Anyway, this is your last time here." ”
Pope sighed, what Buchen said is indeed right, paper can't contain the fire, sooner or later, the Holy City Kingdom will find out that the death of those fifty bandits is related to him, and he is afraid that he will not be able to go through this trade road in the future.
"Let's go! After this level, it is the Western Continent. Pope said.
