CHAPTER XIII

"Don't do it, it's me, it's me, the warrior from the Han Empire!" Lin Li suddenly thrust his sword into the sand in front of him to show that he had no hostile intentions, and he shouted that the cavalry suddenly hesitated, these cavalrymen had seen Lin Li before, Lin Li's appearance of black hair and black eyes was extremely rare for them, so he was very impressed, but the strong man who attacked the prisoner car was also black-haired and black-eyed, given that black-haired and black-eyed were so rare in Rome, it was natural for Lin Li to be regarded as a fellow party of the strong man. After hesitating, several cavalrymen surrounded Lin Li, and although they did not kill him on the spot, they also pointed their spears in the direction of the prisoner car.

"Han people, do you recognize this powerful warrior?" Being pressed over by three heavily armored cavalrymen, the cavalry captain didn't listen to Lin Li's explanation, his eyes were cold, and he asked directly.

"Acquaintance!" Pretending to hesitate for a moment, Lin Li nodded reluctantly, and then quickly explained, "This person used to be the captain of my guard, and he was powerful, but he disappeared before my team was attacked, I thought he was killed by those barbarians, but I didn't expect him to appear here, Lord Knight, I don't know why he attacked the prisoner car, we didn't come from far away to be hostile!" ”

When Lin Li spoke, the cavalry captain was carefully observing his expression, and saw Lin Li hesitate, the light in the cavalry captain's eyes flashed, if Lin Li did not hesitate when answering, the cavalry captain would definitely suspect him of lying, but now Lin Li's expression was in place, and the cavalry captain immediately believed most of it.

Although he believed most of the things in his heart, the cavalry captain still stared at Lin Li with a cold gaze, Lin Li's explanation was not a big problem, just like he said, there was really no need for people who came from thousands of miles to provoke the powerful Roman legions, even if they did not realize the strength of Rome.

Seeing that Lin Li was stared at and did not look weak, the cavalry captain's expression slowed slightly, and he slowly put down his spear and said, "Maybe your guard captain took refuge in the barbarians, so he helped the barbarians attack the prisoner cart and plunder the population." Han people, I believe your words! ”

"Lord Knight, how dare I be deceived, everything I say is the truth, my guards betrayed their master and took refuge in the new master, it is indeed a pity that this betrayer actually killed two great knights!" Lin Li's posture was very low, and his words were also very good, observing the smug color in the eyes of the cavalry captain, Lin Li changed his words and said, "Lord Knight, in order to make up for the sins committed by my servants, I am willing to help the Lord Knight take care of the people in the prisoner cart and bring them to Capua, where they will be sacrificed to your lordship." Knight, please leave these people to me, Lord Knight, why waste time for a few slaves when the knight is busy with war! ”

Lin Li cleverly said that he didn't say anything, and even beat snakes and begged a few heavily armored cavalrymen for slaves in the prisoner car, he really won the truth of these words in the wealth and danger.

It's a pity that if the main god was so good at fooling each infinite world, so many people would not have died, and sure enough, the cavalry captain opened his mouth and broke Lin Li's dream. "These slaves are Thracians, and we have been ordered to take them to Capua for sale, and although I believe you, there are black-eyed men attacking the prison carts, and I will take you to Capua to meet the consul and let the consul decide what to do with you."

Lin Li was not allowed to refute, and directly confiscated Lin Li's weapons, but thinking that Lin Li claimed to be the emperor's messenger, the cavalry retained a minimum of respect, and did not throw Lin Li into the prisoner cart, but gave him a war horse, which was watched by the heavy cavalry and rushed in the direction of Capua.

Seeing Sula being rudely stuffed into a prison car, Lin Li really wanted to kill all eight heavily armored cavalrymen, and Spartacus's wife just brushed him by.

With the war horse, it was only an hour or two later, and a city made of earth and stone appeared on the horizon, this city was very small in Lin Li's opinion, and it was estimated that there were thousands of people in the city, which was good, but in the west of this era, it was also a medium-sized city, and it was only more than 10,000 people when Athens was most prosperous on the same time line. Capua was one of the largest cities in Rome during this period. …,

Capua architecture is mostly very simple, even some nobles are only a little bigger, and they built things that can store rainwater as a large pool, and the most magnificent building in the whole of Capua is the gladiatorial arena, and the most important thing in the whole of Rome in the whole era is rain and gladiatorial fighting.

Most of the Roman residents in Capua City wore long earthy gray pullovers, which hung down to their ankles like straight legs, and it didn't matter what clothes they worn, the important thing was that the Romans of this era were extremely lacking in etiquette, and were led by several heavily armored knights through Capua, Lin Li could often see some Romans having crazy sex on the streets, and there were many women whose clothes fell under their chests to reveal heavy things and didn't bother to pull their clothes. Primitive, barbaric, crazy, Lin Li couldn't find other words to describe the Rome in front of him.

"Wait here!" Lin Li was taken outside a tall gate, and watched as the prisoner cart was escorted by two heavily armored cavalrymen and disappeared into the city, and the cavalry captain jumped off his horse and walked towards the open gate. In this small palace-like building, the consul Albinius is chilling out on a chaise longue, two beautiful naked maidens, one carefully spreading the rain on him, and the other slowly smearing the water all over the fat man's body.

Wells in Capua are scarce and prone to drying, and rain is more precious than gold for at least six months of the year, and now Kapua has not shed a drop of water for nearly two months, and it is when the rain is most precious that the whole of Capua is about to collapse due to lack of water.

The cavalry captain didn't look at the two naked beautiful girls, but stared at the rain that was slowly smeared on the consul's body, until the clerk standing aside stared at him with sharp eyes, and the cavalry captain swallowed his saliva and licked his dry lips to report Lin Li's matter to the consul briefly.

"The Great Han Empire? Except for Rome, is there a place that dares to be called an empire? Listening to the words of the cavalry captain, the fat consul snorted coldly, moved his fat body impatiently, and said, "Black hair and black eyes, maybe from some small place that the great Rome has not yet conquered, and sold him as a slave." ”

"Yes, Your Excellency!" The cavalry captain's head hung even lower and was about to go out, when the clerk on the side suddenly leaned over and whispered a few words to the consul.

"Is there really such a record in the Book of Thebes? That great country was stronger than Rome and full of gold? The fat body stood up slightly, and the two beautiful girls were pushed away impatiently.

"Yes, my lord, the Thebans have crossed the Mediterranean Sea and crossed the distant land, they have been there, they have seen those black-haired and black-eyed people, maybe that powerful country is the Han Empire!" The clerk bowed and said.

"Oh? Then let him come and see me, maybe this mysterious guy can give us some fun. ”
