Chapter Eighty-Three: Target, Donglin Town
Chapter Eighty-Three Target, Donglin Town
"I don't know where you're going, young master? As far as I know, it's a long way from the nearest town! And there are often strongmen on this road, and sometimes even one or two small biochemical beasts will come out, which is not very peaceful! After believing in Ye Yu's identity, the young man also hurriedly changed his honorifics. &*οΌοΌ The fastest update** He knew that rich young masters like this kind of strong and middle-class young masters are the most unoffended. Although they can't lift a knife, can't hold a sword, and don't have fart skills, they have a strong sense of self-esteem and love face. And very vindictive. One of his old cousins, it was because he offended such a person that he ended up with a ruined family!
When he thought of this, he was embarrassed, but he didn't have much sympathy in his heart, and only attributed all this to the bad luck and bad fate of the old watch. I have to say that this young man is a personal essence, and he has figured out the psychology of those noble young masters very accurately. In his opinion, Ye Yu obviously belongs to this kind of person, not to mention encountering any strongmen, biochemical beasts, even if he encounters an ordinary beast, looking at his appearance of fine skin and tender meat, it is estimated that he will not be able to get any benefits.
Seeing this young man, he looked at himself with slanted eyes from time to time, Ye Yu was not angry, and said lightly: "I want to go to Donglin Town first, and then take the train from there back to Edinburgh!" I wonder where you're going? β
"Hehe, it's really a young chick, and I don't have any defense at all!" The young man despised it in his heart, but on the surface, he became more and more respectful: "Ha Luha, what a coincidence, we also happened to go to Donglin Town!" β
"That's great!" Ye Yu was suddenly "overjoyed", popped out a silver coin casually, and pretended to be annoyed: "I left all morning today, and my legs and feet are sore!" I wonder if I'll be able to ride your carriage for a while! As he spoke, he deliberately hammered two of his legs!
"Yes, of course!" The young man took the silver coin, and a smile suddenly bloomed on his face! A silver coin, that's a lot of tips! He tied his head to the waistband of his trousers, and risked his life for a long trip, and the reward he received was only a gold coin, which was already quite good in the average income class!
"That, please wait a minute, young master!" As he spoke, the young man hurriedly put away the silver coins in his hand, and then waved his arms and made a few gestures to the caravan over there. Although Ye Yu has never walked a dart, he is no stranger to the adventurer's business. Zhilu said, ordinary strangers are not allowed to approach the caravan without permission, once they get close, they will be warned first, and if the warning is ineffective, they will shoot directly. So, it's also a profession that walks on the edge of the law. At the same time, high risk will also bring high returns. Those who are shot die in vain, and the adventurer does not need to bear legal responsibility. This is a rule that the adventurer industry does not become. Of course, the premise is that the deceased does not have a big identity background.
"Okay, young master, come with me! Remember, watch less, listen less, and talk less! When someone asks you something, you will answer honestly! No problem with keeping! β
"Wellββ, I got it!" Ye Yu nodded and followed behind the young man, "By the way, big brother, I don't know what to call it?" β
"Ha Luha, the young master is too polite! I'm not a big brother, just call me Aiwen! β
The commanding heights of the caravan, which was the roof of a carriage, Ye Yu could clearly perceive that there was a sniper on it at this moment, through the scope, aiming the sniper rifle at his forehead. He knew that it was just a routine, and he didn't care. Besides, even if that guy shoots with all his might, he can't threaten himself at all. With his current perception, it can be said that it is easy to dodge guns and bullets.
Ye Yu took a cursory look, and everything around him was clear. The caravan consisted of fifteen wagons, and except for two wagons with supplies and two that seemed to be passengers, the remaining eleven were all wagons wrapped in thick tarpaulins. The curtain of the two carriages was hanging low at the moment, and he couldn't tell who was riding on them, and at the same time, he was not interested in knowing the way. β¦,
The caravan was in the shape of a long serpentine and drove westward, and about thirty heavily armed adventurers stood guard around the wagons. It seems that this is the entire armed power of this caravan! This group of adventurers, basically everyone has a light assault rifle on their chest, and there are various types, M1, M4, A50, and even a long-obsolete "Kirby" machine gun (named because of Taika), like a motley mercenary. It can be seen that this team of adventurers is really not very good!
In addition, without exception, at their waists, a slender sword was stuck horizontally. This is also a must-have equipment for adventurers, and even more important than the hot weapons in their hands. For example, once they enter the jungle, those iron bumps in their hands are not as good as the long swords at their waists? Especially against some beasts, and small biochemical beasts.
Ye Yu was looking around unscrupulously, showing that he was curious about everything.
At this moment, a rough voice instantly interrupted his thoughts. "Hey, stinky boy, what are you looking for! Look at it again, and pull out your eyeballs. β
"Get out of the way and go to the big asshole, don't scare this young master!" Avenues yelled at the black man who came without telling the news, his face full of disdain.
"Hehe, little Aiai, who are you this kid, you defend him so much. Could it be that you have a leg? Aha-"
Hearing this, the adventurers around them also burst into laughter.
Ye Yu pretended to be angry, but he didn't care much in his heart. It was that Aiwen, whose eyes widened angrily, and almost got into a fight with the black man. Obviously, he was bullied by the people he brought in, which made him feel very shameless. For these adventurers who lick blood with knife heads, in addition to gold coins, the most important thing is that there is not much face! It is precisely because they are often close to death that they become more sensitive. Sometimes they disagree and even get into a fight. It's a bit similar to their killers, but in terms of mortality, they're not on the same level at all! He was sure that if he didn't look at the fierce and vicious appearance of these adventurers now, he would probably not be able to stand it and want to commit suicide in less than two months. The world of killers is far more sinister than adventurers. Of course, the premise is that they can also live for more than two months.
However, in his opinion, if these two people really make a move, the young man named Avenues has little chance of winning. In terms of figure, the black strong man was a whole head taller than him, almost catching up with Ye Yu's height, and his body was as strong as an ox. The most important point is that this guy is still a good martial artist, which can be seen from the subtle movements revealed in his gestures, as well as the faintly surging true qi in his body. This guy's strength is definitely not weak, probably around the middle of the martial arts apprenticeship, and maybe even higher. And that Avenue, not even a martial artist! The gap between the two sides can be imagined. Ye Yu didn't plan to help, first, he didn't like to meddle in things. Second, he knew that this fight would not be fought at all.
Sure enough, just as the two of them were about to get up, a middle-aged man with a beard on his face strode over. "What's going on?"
"Head, this kid brought in an outsider at random. I'm just going to come and ask, this kid is in a hurry with me, and he's going to come and beat me! β
"I brought it here! Are you going to do it with me, too? As soon as the middle-aged man spoke, the strong black man didn't dare to speak!
There is a faint leakage of true qi, the strength of this middle-aged man is about the peak of martial arts, even if there is a difference, it will not be too much, it can be regarded as the highest martial arts cultivation in this group of people!
The middle-aged man glanced Ye Yu up and down, and found nothing unusual except that he was a little taller. At this moment, Ye Yu's true qi is restrained, even if he is a martial arts master powerhouse of the same level, he may not be able to sense his realm, let alone the peak of a mere martial artist! β¦,
The middle-aged man asked him a few words roughly, which was similar to what the young man asked before, and Ye Yu also answered them one by one, without revealing any flaws.
Then Ye Yu took out a few more gold coins and wanted to pay him as a reward, but he was unexpectedly rejected by the middle-aged uncle with a wave of his hand! And at the moment when Ye Yu took out the gold coin, the black strong man behind him and Aiwen showed greed at the same time.
This move also made the middle-aged people more convinced that Ye Yu was just a rich young master with no social experience, and they suddenly felt more at ease with him. At the same time, he did not forget to kindly remind him a few words, so that his wealth would not be exposed, so as not to invite disaster.
Ye Yu smiled lightly and thanked him. In his opinion, in addition to his low martial arts skills and a little conceited, this middle-aged man is still quite good!
"Whether you can stay in the team or not, I don't count! After all, this is the employer's caravan, and we are just working for others, so come with me! As he spoke, the middle-aged man took the lead in walking towards a carriage in front, followed by Ye Yu.
Looking at Ye Yu's departing back, the black strong man's face was full of greed. But he wasn't carried away by greed, and not everyone had the guts to rob. He belongs to the typical kind of person who has a thief's heart and no thief's courage. He also saw that the identity of that kid was by no means simple, and his gestures faintly revealed a kind of nobility. Of course, aristocracy generally doesn't care what it calls extravagance or elegance. Anyway, it's almost the same, it's not a character he can offend, and he can only lust behind his back.
"Tell me honestly, how much reward did your kid get just now!"
"your. Even if I give me a bag of gold coins, it has nothing to do with you! The young man, Avenues, apparently had no liking for him, and with a sarcastic remark, he walked away.
At this time, the black man's mind moved again. I secretly decided in my heart that I must pat the rich young master's ass well and let him give him a little more reward. Some people say that they are shameless when they ask for money, and this black strong man obviously belongs to this kind of person, and he himself did not deny it.
"Sir, there is a young master who is lost here, and wants to take our convoy back to Donglin Town, do you think it's okay or not!" The middle-aged man came to a carriage and asked in a low voice.
"No! I'm a caravan, loaded with goods, but can't carry people! Besides, this is not too far from Nadonglin Town, and it will be there in a few hours, so there is no need to take our car! Give him a map and let him go! A magnetic voice suddenly sounded in the car, but there was an irresistible majesty between the words.
The middle-aged man spread his hands at Ye Yu regretfully, saying that he couldn't help. After all, for those of them who are risk-takers, the employer's requirements are everything. Every dart is recorded, especially when encountering some mean employers, as long as they are a little dissatisfied, they will complain to the guild. Even if you can keep your job, there will be a lot of trouble. The black-hearted guys in the guild want to make a fool of themselves when they get the opportunity! And for people like Ye Yu who don't know each other, there is no need for him to help at all.
Before the middle-aged man could speak again, he heard Ye Yu say: "Hello sir, I am a student of the Royal Academy of Edinburgh. This time I came out for an internship, I accidentally got lost, and now I am tired, I really don't have the strength to walk, please don't be stingy with help, let me take your carriage back to Donglin Town, kid is grateful! Here's a gold coin, count it as my fare! β
"Hmph, do you think I look like the man who lacks a gold coin? I hate you sanctimonious aristocrats the most in my life, full of benevolence and morality, but doing some dirty and harmful things, not as good as us businessmen? You go, I won't help you! I don't think you noble kids, who are above the top, will care about us lowly businessmen helping, right? ββ¦,
Ye Yu was amused in his heart, he came over and wanted to mix in the caravan, but it was just a temporary idea, firstly, he could hide people's eyes, and secondly, he saved himself the pain of walking. But it really didn't work, and he didn't care, but he didn't want to attract so many complaints from the people in the car. It seems that he still hates the nobles, and he must have been oppressed by those nobles a lot. In fact, it is an exaggeration to say that the aristocracy looked down on merchants. In fact, the aristocracy, who liked to get something for nothing, usually looked down on any profession that was paid for their labor, including merchants. They only like to enjoy, relying on the shadow of their ancestors, their eyes are above the top, and most of them live in vanity and fantasy. Even many small country aristocrats who are worried about food and clothing are like this. However, this social hierarchy that has been passed down for thousands of years cannot be changed if you want to.
Ye Yu didn't say anything, so he was about to turn around and leave. At this moment, a melodious voice like a yellow warbler instantly stopped his steps. "Excuse me, are you really a cadet of the Royal Academy of Edinburgh?"
Judging by the voice, it must have been a girl in the carriage, and she was not very old.
"Yes, Miss! I don't have to lie to you. As a killer, Ye Yu lied, and his face was not red or panting.
"The aristocrats are liars!" The magnetic male voice said disdainfully.
The girl ignored him and asked, "Then what major did you study?" β
"Department of medical services, pharmacist major!" Ye Yu is ready to carry out the lie to the end. However, I was still a little apprehensive in my heart, could it be that I had met the main master, could this girl also be a student of the Royal Academy of Edinburgh. It can't be such a coincidence! Although he doesn't care, if it is debunked, it is still a little unbeautiful! However, with so many students coming to Edinburgh College, it is not so easy to debunk it!
"Hey, did you study pharmacist? That must be very proficient in medical skills! β
"Average!" Ye Yu showed a rare humility of the aristocracy, in fact, his attainments in medical skills were really ordinary. Except for learning a little basic medicine when I was a child, most of them are now from Xiaomos!
"Father, just take this brother in for the time being! It's pitiful to see him here alone, and he's still a student of the Royal Academy of Edinburgh, so we might be classmates in the future? β
"Okay, Tong'er. But next time, without my permission, you are not allowed to talk to strangers at will! β
"Well, I know, Daddy!"
It can be heard from the tone that this father is still very fond of his daughter, and basically responds to his needs. I was stained with the light of this little girl, and of course, at the same time, I also had my own fake identity. I didn't expect that the identity I made up at random would have such a wonderful use, and I didn't expect that this little girl who didn't sound big was really about to become a student of the Royal Academy of Edinburgh! What a coincidence.
"Captain Lehman! Please settle this kid! β
"What aβ"
"Vulgar businessman!" Ye Yu secretly said in his heart, no wonder many nobles are not interested in merchants, in addition to their own arrogance, the vulgarity of merchants is also an important reason. After all, the vast majority of businessmen have a very low level of education. In addition to being proficient in mathematical calculations, he basically knows nothing about art, academics and other fields. And the aristocracy, in addition to indulging in pleasures, will also spend most of their time on the study of knowledge. This includes high art, cutting-edge scientific and technological knowledge, and it can be said that learning has become a part of their lives. In addition to learning awareness, the best learning resources are also in their hands. This includes the major service academies. In comparison, the merchants naturally looked vulgar! After all, the aristocracy is recognized as the highest level of knowledge in the entire galaxy, otherwise most of the talents will not come from the aristocratic class. β¦,
"Thank you, sir! And, of course, this young lady! Ye Yu said lightly.
"Father, can you let this brother share a carriage with me? Do I have many more questions for him? The little girl said suddenly.
"No! If you make such an unreasonable demand again, I will drive him away!" As a father, he would never allow his daughter to share a car with this boy of unknown origin.
"All rightβ" the little girl gave up.
If Ye Yu was allowed to ride in the same car with outsiders, he really didn't want to. It's okay to be at ease.
Following the middle-aged man named Lehman, Ye Yu came to an open-top carriage pulling goods!
"I'm very sorry, but both carriages with people are occupied by employers, and there is nothing I can do. I have to wronged you to sit here! β
"It's okay, Captain Lehman, please forgive me for calling you that way!"
"It's okay, the name is used to be called!" Lehman waved his hand, unconcerned.
"I just have to rest, and I love fresh air!"
"Alright, let's go up! It's all cargo, don't use an open flame on it! Also, do you need my help? β
"No, I'll be careful!" Ye Yu was tall and long-armed, pulled the rope that fixed the goods, and climbed to the top of the carriage with a few ups and downs. Suddenly, the entire caravan was in full view.
"Captain Lehman, I'm alright!" Ye Yu lay on the carriage, looked at the blue sky, and shouted loudly.
"Alright, we're on our way! All pay attention, the front team pays attention to the front, the rear team pays attention to the rear, the middle pays attention to the two wings, the coachman guards the goods, the target is the town of Donglin in the west, and set offββ" In the sound of Captain Lehman's powerful horn, the long carriage caravan like a long snake finally started slowly.
