The first day was peaceful, with no trouble and no surprises. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It's just that the good times don't last long.

When the Dragon God Empress arrived with the leader of the caravan, Yang Yi stood on a huge rock, staring intently at the valley in the distance.

"Team leader, let's put the ugly words in front." Yang Yi speaks the lingua franca of the Silicon Charm Alliance, and it is also the lingua franca of this world, but Yang Yi's accent is obvious. "Although we have promised to escort the caravan to the imperial capital, I also mentioned that I hope you will tell us openly and honestly about the dangers you may encounter, so that we can be prepared, because we do not want to lose our lives for this transaction. Until then, I have always trusted you, and I believe that you have told me everything you know. It's just that I now realize that I was wrong. There are many dangers in the valley ahead, and you obviously know about it, but you didn't tell me, so the rest of the road is up to you, and I ......."

"No, don't leave us behind."

Yang Yi smiled coldly, nodded at the Dragon God Empress, turned around and walked towards the back.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything I know." The team leader was visibly panicked. "Whatever it is, as long as it can help you ......"

"It's to help you."

"Yes, yes, yes, to help us. I'll tell you all if it helps. ”

Yang Yi nodded slightly, then stopped, turned to look at the team leader.

In fact, when the team leader proposed to let Yang Yi and the Dragon God Empress follow them to the imperial capital, Yang Yi guessed that there must be danger ahead, otherwise the team leader would not have taken out one-fifth of the bonus to hire two bodyguards. It's just that Yang Yi didn't point through this. It wasn't until he discovered the original energy fluctuations in the valley that Yang Yi contacted the Dragon God Empress and brought the team leader over, and there was the beginning of the scene.

"Why are you still stunned, let's talk." The Dragon Empress pushed the leader. If it weren't for Yang Yi standing next to her, she might have slapped the team leader.

"Actually...... Actually, I don't know what's hidden in the valley. ”

"You don't know?"

"I swear, I really don't know, I just know that the caravan won't reach the imperial capital smoothly, because what we're transporting is so important."

"You're not honest, do you think your life is big enough to make it through that valley alive?"

"No, of course not." The leader looked aggrieved and a little hesitant, as if he was weighing the risk of telling the secret or going into the valley alone.

"If you don't want to say it, I won't embarrass you." Yang Yi pressed his hand towards the Dragon God Empress and said, "It's just that the rest of Ruth is up to you." Of course, we also got to know each other, so I'll give you a piece of advice, don't go into that valley without a strong enough bodyguard, or you won't even know how you died. As for whether or when you can find a strong bodyguard, that's none of my business. ”

"Wait, please."

Yang Yi ignored the team leader, and the Dragon God Empress also shook her head with a wry smile.

"We're shipping the personal belongings of Emperor Ortega."

As soon as the team leader said this, Yang Yi and the Dragon God Empress stopped.

"A tribute to Emperor Ortega, to be exact." The leader sighed, and it seemed that after saying it, he was much more relaxed. "We must arrive at the imperial capital on time and offer tribute, otherwise all the inhabitants of Shuoyang City will be punished and even executed. It's not for ourselves, it's for the millions of residents of Shuoyang City, so we can't stop even if we know there's a great danger ahead. ”

"So, what does it have to do with us?" The Dragon God Empress asked lightly.

"If you can escort us to the imperial capital, you are the benefactor of all the six-legged spiders in Shuoyang City, and you are our savior. In the future, as long as you arrive in Shuoyang City, you will be treated, and no matter how much trouble you encounter, we will not hesitate to help. ”

The Dragon Empress sneered, she was clearly not interested in it in the slightest.

"If it's so important, why aren't there any escorts?" Yang Yi turned around and asked the team leader.

"Actually, we can't do it any other way." The team leader sighed and said, "This time, Emperor Ortega asked for more tributes than before, but also became even rarer, and it took twice as long to collect these tributes as before. By the time we were ready to pay tribute, time was running out. If we take the time to recruit people to escort the caravan, we will certainly not be able to reach the imperial capital in time. ”

"Did you not prepare in advance?"

"We prepared as usual, but it wasn't enough."

Yang Yi frowned, and looked at the team leader incomprehensibly.

"The point is, it was too difficult to obtain these tributes, and we lost a lot of people as a result, including bodyguards who were supposed to escort the caravan."

"Is there only one caravan in your Shuoyang City?"

"Of course not, it's just that we are the only ones who can leave in time." The team leader gritted his teeth and said, "Besides, I am the only one who is willing to escort the tribute to the imperial capital, because I am the eldest son of the administrator of Shuoyang City, and all my relatives are there. If we fail to deliver the tribute to the imperial capital in time, not only will my father be executed, but all my relatives, including myself, will be reduced to slavery. ”

The Dragon God Empress was slightly stunned, revealing a bitter expression.

"We didn't have time to recruit bodyguards or contact other caravans, so we decided to disguise ourselves as an ordinary caravan, hoping to fool the enemies along the way. At least until then, our approach has had little effect. ”

"It's a pity that luck runs out one day."

The team leader sighed and said, "Actually, we have long thought that good luck will not always be with us, so after meeting you, I took the initiative to mention it and hired you to escort us to the imperial capital." Either way, you're all hunters with superbodies. ”

"Superbody?"

"You all have superpowers, more powerful than us, and able to help us deal with the dangers we encounter along the way."

Yang Yi nodded slightly and said, "It's a pity that we are not omnipotent, and you should have told us about this earlier." ”

"Until then, we can't be sure of your identity, at least not fully believe that you are not robbers who came for the tribute, so we ......"

"It's just that it's not too late to tell us." Yang Yi smiled faintly and said, "Since it is related to the life and death of millions of Shuoyang City residents, and the conditions you have offered are indeed very attractive, I have decided to continue to escort you to the imperial capital." Of course, there is a prerequisite. ”

"What?" The team leader seemed to see hope and immediately asked.

"Next, no matter what happens, no matter what happens, including you, you must do what we tell us, and you must not act without permission. If you mess around, then any losses suffered have nothing to do with us, and I will not be held responsible for it. ”

"This ......"

"Of course, it's just a matter of security."

The team leader nodded and said, "No problem, I will listen to your orders, and I will tell my subordinates to obey your orders absolutely." ”

"What is the deadline for the delivery of tribute?"

"Two days later."

Yang Yi frowned and said, "There is still a day to go to reach the imperial capital, so we will be delayed on the road for a day at most. ”

"It's only half a day." The leader paused for a moment before he said, "In the early morning of two days, we will have to deliver the tribute outside the palace to the personnel sent by Emperor Ortega. As in previous years, if we were late, even if it was only for a short time, that guy wouldn't have accepted. ”

Yang Yi nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what the team leader meant.

"How sure are you?" The team leader is obviously worried about Yang Yi's strength. "If you feel that the danger in the valley ahead is too serious to be sure that you will be able to pass through, we have time to divert now. Even if it's going to be stressful, it's better than ......"

"Diversion?"

"It's about an extra day to walk around that valley. If we take fewer breaks, we may be able to save half a day on the road. ”

"Provided, there are no other troubles."

The team leader sighed and didn't say anything more.

"Besides, do you believe us?" Yang Yi glanced at the team leader and said, "If you believe us, then do what I say." Of course, if you think that I can't be relied on at all, then just do what you want, but I can't guarantee whether I can reach the imperial capital in time. ”

"But ......"

"Let's put it this way, the enemy in the valley ahead is very strong and hidden, and if it weren't for our exploration, we wouldn't have been able to detect it in time. Don't you think those enemies are coming prepared? Otherwise, why hide? If so, then they will ignore the possibility of you bypassing the valley? If I'm not mistaken, there are just as much danger on the road around the valley, and even more so. Even if it is only a small group of enemies, as long as you can hold back the caravan and buy some time, the caravan will also be caught up by the enemies in the valley. In addition, you must send the tribute to the imperial capital in time, as long as you delay for half a day, even if you avoid the enemy, what can you do? ”

The team leader sighed and said, "The question is, aren't we also sent to death when we enter the valley?" ”

The Dragon God Empress was slightly stunned, and was about to say something, but was stopped by Yang Yi.

"The danger is real, but there is no alternative. At the very least, those guys didn't know the two of us existed and might be able to catch them off guard. As long as we can achieve a surprise effect, we can escort the caravan out of the valley. When the time comes, we will stay behind and hold off the enemy to buy you some time. Either way, this was the only way for the caravan to reach the imperial capital in time. ”

"This ......"

"Now that we've been able to spot those enemies, we're sure enough." Yang Yi smiled faintly and said, "It's not too early, let's go back quickly." ”

The team leader's emotions were very complicated, but he didn't say much, because he could only pin his hopes on Yang Yi. (To be continued.) )
