Jinyang City has an extra batch of refugees, but Heiling City has an extra batch of guests.

There was something strange about this group of guests.

Larger than life.

In front of him was a sharp-eyed pathfinder thief riding a lizard, and in the middle of the team were dozens of mercenaries, escorting a dozen criminals who had been tortured and had their flesh cut off their teeth and their bodies bound to a prisoner's car, and slowly entered the city. At the end, there is also a huge wurm, a big-footed earth-walking dragon. Along the path of bones, the big-footed earthwalker came slowly, carrying a luxurious golden seat on its back.

On the golden throne, in addition to sitting two silver-armored warriors dressed very similarly, there was also a slave girl and a little girl holding a baby.

Unlike ordinary caravans, this team is more like a slave catcher.

But it's rare to see a slave catcher team that can be so luxurious, and they will get a quasi-heavenly rank "Bigfoot Walking Dragon" that is usually only qualified to ride by the city lord or above, and also get a golden throne that is extremely stylish......

The most surprising thing is that there are no nobles of such a particularly noble status on the golden throne, only two samurai, and even a lowly slave girl and a little girl who looks like a hungry person. Even though they sat at the feet of the two silver-armored warriors, sitting on the extravagant golden throne, looking down on their surroundings, the timidity and uneasiness in their eyes could still be clearly seen. Those with a little vision can see at a glance that they are definitely not nobles, on the contrary, these should be untouchables, hungry among untouchables!

What qualifications do untouchables have to sit on the throne of gold?

The captain of the guard, who was in charge of collecting taxes at the gates, was surprised by this.

"Zhumen wine and meat stink, and there are frozen ......bones on the road," he vaguely heard the silver-armored warrior on the left of the golden throne say to the silver-armored warrior on the right.

"Don't drop your bookbag, now is not the time to sigh, hurry up and get down to business, we don't have much time, and we have to pass the wind swamp" Hurry up and take down the periphery. The captain of the guard at the gate of the city heard the silver-armored warrior on the right say this, although the distance was a little far, and the surroundings were a little noisy, so he couldn't hear it very clearly, but he heard the accent, "The silver-armored warrior on the right should be a woman."

"What are you doing?" the guards stepped forward to stop the pathfinder thieves who were walking in the front, and shouted loudly, "When you come to Heiling City, no matter what your status is, you must also pay taxes, this is the rule set by the lord.

The lord of Heiling City is the younger brother of the lord of the country.

Don't say that the Heiling Lord" is in the entire Wind Stopping Country, and no one dares to disobey the will of the lord of the lord.

Here, the lord is the heavens and the earth, and he is the only ruler who controls the fate of everyone in the Heiling Domain!

The sparkling-eyed pathfinder thief rolled down the long-legged galloper's back, smiled like an old friend hadn't seen him for a long time, and very skillfully stuffed a small purse into the guard's ear, and bit his ear for a while. He pointed back to his thighs and whispered something. Finally, the pathfinder thief took out a larger and more bulging purse from his bosom and offered it with a grin, "as a tax payment............ This qiē is normal, and almost all caravans or slave hunters do it.

Gambling with the guards was the most common action of every pathfinder thief, and paying taxes "is also in accordance with the laws of each region."

Originally, this prosaic procedure made the captain at the city gate frown secretly.

I don't know what it's like.

The captain of the guards always felt that the laughter of this pathfinder thief was not flattery, but an indescribable mockery.

It seems that the guards who collect the money will soon be unlucky...... However, there was no problem with the gold coins, and when the captain of the guard watched the guards open the money bag to register the taxes, he found that the gold coins were genuine, and there was no zài deception, and there were many of them, far beyond the ordinary slave catchers" and even beyond the ordinary size of the caravan.

Is this the amount of money these people have so much money that they have no place to squander?

Looking at the fugitive slaves they caught, they were all tortured to the point that they couldn't live any longer, and they were worthless at all, for the sake of these fugitive slaves, was it really worth paying taxes of nearly a thousand gold coins? Besides, for a number like this, others would already be miserable if they had to pay 100 gold, but this pathfinder thief had paid nearly 1,000 gold, and his face was still full of smiles.

It's so weird!

When this team entered the city, the captain of the guards still couldn't understand why his heart was uneasy.

I should be happy that I have collected heavy taxes and have more share, so why do I still feel uncomfortable? What went wrong?

"Greyhound, what did he just say?" the captain of the guard called his men and asked.

"Head, it's a slave hunting team chasing fugitive slaves, who have been going back and forth between the Wind Stopping Country and the Hurricane Country for a long time, this time only walking by, it is said that they are usually mainly responsible for smuggling, and the slave hunting is only part-time. I estimate that they have bought a large amount of goods this time, and they have paid more than 800 gold in taxes, and we are going to be prosperous this time, that is, we have handed over the maximum limit of 200 gold, and the rest can be divided into more than 600 gold, and now the brothers can finally have a good celebration! In this poor and rotten place, how long has there been no such income, half a month, no, half a year, I have not seen such a fat sheep come to the door!" The guards danced excitedly, and reported the good news to the captain with a smile.

The captain of the guard nodded, indicating that he understood.

Although he had the opportunity to fill his pockets, he didn't feel happy, and there was even a faint fear of floating in him.

No way...... No matter how easy it is to smuggle and make money, it is impossible to pay such a tax when entering the city, this is simply a fool's behavior, who would spill money for no reason?

If this slave catcher did this on purpose, then for what?

Why did they gamble heavily into the city?

How could that pathfinder thief smile with a mocking smile in the depths of his eyes? How could those lowly slave girls and hungry little girls be qualified to sit on the golden throne? The most puzzling thing was that those two silver-armored warriors dressed exactly the same were obviously very weak, but how could they give themselves a feeling of incomparably fear?

The captain of the guard, who was in charge of collecting taxes at the entrance of the city, couldn't figure out what he thought.

I don't know how long it took.

Far away, a griffon flew with a flying messenger covered in blood, but before it could enter the city, the messenger fell headlong. When the captain of the guard rushed forward to rescue the flying messenger, he found that he had already been severely wounded and dying. At the last moment, the flying messenger returned to his spirits and held the hand of the captain of the guard tightly: "Hurry, hurry, report to the lord" Sheep's Foot City, Sandstone City, Gobi City, Thorn City, and Walnut City have all been breached, and I have just escaped in Buffalo City............ I, I, I'm the only one who escaped............ Inform your lord, the enemy ...... Ask the lord for help, ahh......h

The messenger seemed to have something to say, but he couldn't hold it up.

His head tilted and he died of exhaustion.

"I'll ......... it right away" When the captain of the guards heard the news, he immediately jumped up, and the entire Heiling Territory was broken through, so what did it do? I don't know who it was" The territory of the non-war zone has also been invaded, has the war spread to the large rear of the wind-stopping swamp area?

He was about to rush to the Lord's Mansion as fast as he could, and report the bad news to Lord Heiling.

But just now, the fugitive slave who was tied to the prison car and tortured to the point that he was not human, that kind of bloody and tragic situation" flashed through the back of the guard captain's mind.

Yotei City, Sandstone City, Gobi City, Thorn City, Walnut City and Buffalo City were all breached by the enemy, so were the city lords and garrison generals of several cities all captured?

Difficult to get up...... ，...

The captain of the guard shuddered in fear.

I remembered the smiling face of the pathfinder thief who had paid the heavy tax just now, "I remembered the untouchables who could not sit on the throne, I remembered the fugitive slaves who were tortured in the prison cart and became inhuman, and I remembered the conversation of the male and female warriors who were dressed in the same clothes......... The captain of the guard trembled with fright, sweating like rain.

"What's wrong?" several of the guards looked at the captain inexplicably.

"I have something very important to report to the lord of the country, and you should stay here. By the way, I don't want the share of the tax money, "You guys have a few points, remember to have a good time at night!" The captain of the guard wiped his sweat, held back the fear in his heart, and ordered to go down.

"Understand" Head, you have to go early and return early!" Several guards were so happy when they heard that the captain was going to go to the lord of the country on a mission without paying any money.

"The griffon is ready!" the clever greyhound even quickly took the Flying Courier's mount to the captain and waited for him to travel.

"Goodbye, brothers. The captain of the guard leaned behind the griffin and said this deliberately.

Then he frantically urged the griffon.

Let it go as fast as it can.

Two days later.

The griffon, overworked from flying at high speed day and night, fell to the ground and had been abandoned by the captain of the guard.

The captain of the guard used all his strength to rush desperately, and what he wanted most in his heart was not to report this news to the lord of the country, like this kind of news, the lord of the country did not need his report at all, and believed that he had already received it. What he has to do is to save his life, and he wants to desperately flee to the capital where the lord of the country is located, because that will be the safest place.

Green Willow City, the capital of the Wind Stopping Country, the tall spire has appeared at the limit of sight.

Greenwillow City, a peaceful place where war has never broken out.

Because of the great strength of the Wind Stopping Lord, and the fact that it is located in the rear of the Tianhua Domain's combat zone, here, thousands of miles of fertile land, prosperous, and no army or mob has ever been able to attack here......

The captain of the guards faintly saw that Green Willow City was in sight, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Well, it's safe to escape here.

He took off his captain's clothes, threw them all away, and put on the deer skin he had hunted, disguised himself as a hunter who had lived in the forest area for a long time. Although he didn't know how the war was going, he had abandoned his previous identity as the captain of the city gate guard and decided to change his identity and infiltrate Green Willow City to live a new life in this peaceful city. I have a certain strength, I don't have to worry about starvation, as long as my place of residence is safe enough, it doesn't matter what my identity is.

I checked it up and down, and I felt that there was no flaw.

The former captain of the guards flew out of the forest area, landed at the gate of Green Willow City, handed the guards the identification documents and taxes that had been disguised in advance, accompanied by a smiling face, and said that he needed to enter the city and sell some furs.

"Poor jingle fellow!" the guard snorted in disgust, forcibly extorted two more gold coins, and waved his hand, "Get out!"

"Wow, look, look over there, there's a luxurious slave catcher team coming, my God, this slave catcher team seems to have made a lot of oil and water, and the big foot walking dragon is carrying a golden throne and grass on its back, which slave catcher team is this?"

When the captain of the guards of the former Heiling City heard this, his whole body stiffened.

He looked back in disbelief.

In despair, he found that the slave hunting team he had seen in Heiling City before was slowly walking towards Green Willow City.

Their team seemed to be a little bigger, with more than a dozen mercenaries in charge of guarding, and a few more prisoner carts, the only thing that remained unchanged was the pathfinder thief riding a running lizard, his eyes still bright, and his face still grinning............ And sitting on the golden throne was the same slave girl and the little girl holding the baby, and above that, sat the two silver-armored warriors who were almost exactly the same dress.

The former captain of the guard turned pale with fright, barely slumping to the ground.

He knew the distance between Heiling City and Green Willow City.

Not to mention using big feet to walk on the ground dragon, even if you use a griffin to fly, it will take ten days to fog.

The reason why he was able to get here in three days was because he found an unknown spatial rift, and through the spatial rift, he saved at least seventy percent of the distance before he could get here.

This slow and leisurely footsteps can catch up with their own slave catching team from Heiling City to Green Willow City,...

The former captain of the guard didn't dare to think about it anymore, and he didn't dare to look at it, because he found a bloody shadow in one of the prisoner cars very familiar......... The sharp-eyed pathfinder thief turned over and jumped down from the running lizard, stuffed a money bag into the guard with a smile on his face, and smiled at the former captain of the Heiling City guard and said, "Your speed is quite fast, I didn't think you could catch up with us!" , a call
