Chapter 16: The Temptation of Precious Stones

Ektrova and Isicel swallowed as they watched as they gulped meat and drank Baru.

Ta Ye had to find the steward of the restaurant, who looked at the sapphire in his hand a few times, and could not tell the quality of the gem, so he gave a very low price.

"Fifty Ghost Iron, plus a free lunch. The steward said.

"If it's a real gem, I'm willing to give two hundred ghost iron, and please drink Baru!"

A big man with a leather whip in his hand walked over.

This person was wearing eighteen pieces of battle armor embellished with rhinoceros monster skin, bronze iron on the back of his chest, and a black iron sword at his waist, which was a standard samurai attire of the Aurora.

There is also the Heavy Knight of the Iron Float with a horse lance, whose majesty even surpasses that of the Howling Wolf Knight.

The guards of such caravans are usually served by the first-class warriors of the Aurora, because the bodyguard is a dangerous thing that is not something that ordinary samurai can do.

Tatsuya could not refuse such a samurai and showed him the jewels.

The Guardian squinted, carefully looking at the purple indigo within.

He was pleasantly surprised, "This is the Starlight Gem, where did you get it?"

Star blue is known as the "stone of destiny" and can bless the wearer's safety, and is the best among sapphires.

The steward of the restaurant was a little annoyed when he heard this, but he didn't dare to provoke such a guard.

The guardian returned the gem to Tnight, and pulled him to a chair.

"Such a gem is worth at least two thousand ghost iron, watch out for those aliens!"

Hearing the guard's words, Taye glanced at the five Shires sitting next to him: these people were indeed different, wearing leather shoulders, loose padded pants, and deerskin boots, especially their packages that seemed to have blades hidden in them.

But this doesn't mean much, people who go far away usually have to carry a sword to protect themselves.

"Drink!" the guard shouted haughtily.

They are the caravans of Cloudsdale who like to make friends everywhere, especially when they meet the Aurora people.

Summoned Ektrova and Isicel together, as the Guardian observed that the two were with the Aurora.

Someone was treated, and neither were Ektrova and Isicel, for their stomachs had long since dried up.

When he had eaten almost enough, he asked, "Are you going to the Shire people's residence?"

The Guardian nodded.

"When you see Umba, please ask him to pass on this sapphire to Sanjuma!"

The guard was taken aback and joked, "You're not afraid that I'll swallow it privately!"

"Don't be afraid, the chief of the Dravidian tribe of the Fantasy Forest, Aram, is waiting for you! ”

"You're talking about the ruins of Pilu?"

The Guardian had apparently heard of this place.

He stood up and shouted loudly.

"Let's go!"

Nearly a hundred samurai stood up at the surrounding tables, and everyone put on their armor one after another, ready to go.

They escorted the guard out of the gate.

The guard pointed his whip at a galloping horse and said loudly to Trollnight, "This horse is for you." If you're still in Cloudsdale next month, maybe we'll be able to meet them. Then he hurried his horses and led a group of knights away.

A galloping horse was crowded a little for three people, and Isicel's belly was already bulging, calculating the time, it should have happened on the ghost ship, which means that Isicel has been pregnant for five months.

They had to get to Cloudsdale as soon as possible, and according to the guard, they had to walk for at least seven days.

Ectrova sat on the horse's back with Isicel in his arms, and chased after him on two legs at night, and it was surprising that he could keep up with the first thirty miles, but on the road behind, the horse had to slow down.

Ekchuwa took the reins in his hand and said, "Will you come up for the night too?"

While he was hesitating, a horse came running from behind him, and it was one of the five Shires he had just met in the restaurant.

The man said, "Friend, how about I give you a ride?"

You can only share a horse with this person at night.

After running for an hour, Tatsuya felt a hand reach into his arms, which he held and asked the Shir in front of him.

"Friend, what do you mean by that?"

The man smiled awkwardly and retracted his hand that had been wrapping around, and said, "Friend, how about I exchange a galloping horse for the sapphire on your body?"

Treading Night turned over and dismounted, and sneered: "It turns out that you are for this purpose, and the Starlight Gem is no longer on me." ”

The man stopped his horse and watched the night leave.

The five of them gathered together and muttered something quietly.

The sound of galloping horses' hooves sounded from behind, and suddenly a knife slashed down, and the night was alert, and rolled on its side to the side of the road, and then another horse came and slashed at once, and then a third horse came and slashed down, but none of them struck the man.

"I've met a robber!"

The two knives just now were the same style as the Howling Wolf Knight's knife, and he immediately thought of the word "spies", these people were not Charr but Hades, which made him kill.

When the last horse came rushing over, the firewood knife threw the man above him to the ground, and he landed on the saddle bridge in the night, and chased after the horse in front of him.

The man in front of him felt that something was wrong, but he had no time to react, the wood knife slashed at his neck, and the knife returned to his hand after pulling the iron rope in the night.

The man on horseback flew out on his back, almost hitting the head of the horse that was stepping on the night.

The neighing of the horse woke up the three men in front of them, who turned their heads to avoid the night horse.

Not wanting to continue to entangle with these three people, he ran all the way.

Ektrova rode in front, not knowing what was happening behind him, until he caught up with him, and wondered where he had gotten a galloping horse, and he could no longer see the shadows of the knights just now.

"Give it to me!" I couldn't explain it clearly for a while, and I could only talk nonsense at night.

The road ahead was very narrow, with a hundred zhang cliff on one side and a steep wall on the other, and it was no longer possible for them to walk together, and the sky was gradually darkening.

The temperature in the mountains is more than 20 degrees different from day and night, and even people from the Ice and Snow Continent can feel the drastic changes in the weather.

After finding an open field, Taye and Ektrova found a pile of firewood, because the firewood was relatively humid, they finally lit a bonfire, and the three of them gathered together to keep warm.

"When I was collecting firewood just now, I saw a white wolf, which was different from what I saw in the Ice and Snow Continent. Ektrawa said.
