Chapter XXXIII: The Caravan
Since no one passes by often, the weeds on both sides of the path are growing frantically towards the middle of the road, and some of the tall weeds have to be pushed away by hand to see the road!
On such a road, Luo Tian has been walking for more than an hour!
When Luo Tian found out the man's true face, Luo Tian always felt uncomfortable staying in the house, and immediately found an excuse to leave after eating.
As the old man said, the man was an orphan he had adopted, and he also had a grandson, and the three of them had been dependent on each other, and the grandson had something to do, and he had just gone out and was not at home!
This is also one of the reasons why Luo Tian is in a hurry to leave.
Gu Luotian guessed that the old man's grandson was most likely the pseudo-mother, and the pseudo-mother had seen Luo Tian's appearance at the beginning, and it would be embarrassing if she met it!
The weeds along the way are very annoying, and I accidentally stepped on a poisonous snake on the road, if it weren't for the totem light autonomous body, it is estimated that I would have been lying on the road!
It took another half an hour for Luo Tiancai to finally see the main road, and from time to time there would be people riding horses passing by quickly.
When you get to the top of the road, it's not a problem, just ask someone about it.
The way was found, but the problem of speed also came out!
I don't have a mount, I walk on my legs alone, and I don't know how long it will take to get back to Whitemark City!
Suddenly, a team of carriages came behind him, and Luo Tian's eyes lit up when he saw this!
This carriage is composed of more than a dozen carriages, except for the three carriages in front and the one at the back that are carrying people, the other more than ten carriages are full of goods, which is the standard equipment of a caravan!
Stopping, Luo Tian immediately stood in the middle of the road and stopped the caravan.
"Who are you, why are you in the middle of the road?"
Seeing Luo Tian stop the caravan, the guards in the caravan couldn't help but be on guard, one of them was a strong man riding a brown handsome horse, drove the horse, came to a place a few meters away from Luo Tian, stopped, held the handle of the knife, and asked vigilantly.
Judging from the aura emanating from this sturdy man, because he should have the strength of the peak of a martial artist, he should also be in the caravan because he should be serving as a guard captain or something.
"I'm sorry, I don't mean it, I just wanted to ask if you're heading to Whitesprint? ”
Luo Tian waved his free hands, indicating that he had no malicious intent.
"It's true that our caravan is heading to Whitemark City, but if you want to take it, I can't call the shots, so please wait a while. ”
The burly man glanced Luo Tian up and down, a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes, and he drove the handsome horse and turned to a carriage in front of the caravan that was better decorated than the other carriages.
When the burly man came to the window on the side of the carriage, he suddenly stopped, bowed his head and shouted inside.
"Miss!"
"Captain Mo Qi, what's going on up ahead?"
The curtain of the carriage was not opened, and a crisp voice like a yellow bird suddenly came from it.
"There was a man blocking our way, and he wanted to take our caravan. ”
Captain Mo Qi replied truthfully.
"Ride in our carriage? Could it be the robbers who want to infiltrate our caravan?"
A crisp sound came from the carriage again.
"The subordinates are clumsy, and they can't see it, but looking at the person's dress, he looks a little like those mercenaries who are mixed in the edge of the demon beast forest. ”
"And what about his strength?"
"The subordinates didn't detect the flow of true qi in him, because he should just be an ordinary person!"
As for the price, just take a few silver coins from him, if he doesn't, the other party might feel uneasy. ”
"Yes!"
After getting permission from the people in the carriage, Mo Qi turned the horse's head and came to Luo Tian's body from the new.
"Alright, as long as you promise not to get in the way of our caravan, you can join our caravan!"
"Thank you!"
Luo Tian gave Mo Qi a thank you salute with his fist.
Mo Qi was still wary of Luo Tian, but Luo Tian didn't care, because no one would have any doubt about a person they met for the first time, and this is even more true of the profession of guard!
Mo Qi's vigilance against Luo Tian is a kind of dedication, and Luo Tian still appreciates it a little!
After boarding Luotian, the caravan continued to depart, and the caravan's destination was Baiguang City, one of the four David Cities in Baiting Province.
Baiguang City is the most important turnover city in Baiting Province, and the goods transported from other provinces will be transferred from Baiguang City and then transported to other cities, which is the most important economic zone to maintain the barren Baiting Province, and its importance is no less than that of the main city of Baiting Province, Baiting City!
The White Trace City, where Luo Tian was located, was right on the route of the caravan.
This caravan is not small, there are more than 200 people, and the quality of the guards is obviously very high, more than 80 people in the two teams are all cultivators, more than 30 people have the strength of the early stage of martial apprentices, and the main and deputy captains of the two teams also have the strength of the peak of martial apprentices!
On top of the carriage at the back of the caravan, there was also a powerful aura that exceeded the upper limit of Luo Tian's perception, and it was very likely to be a Yuanhai Realm powerhouse!
When Luo Tian joined the caravan, it was not early, and it was soon evening.
Before it was completely dark, the caravan stopped and began to set up its tent and prepare dinner.
The camping place was next to a river, and it was very convenient to get water, and Luo Tian also took the opportunity to replenish some water sources.
Dinner was not bad, due to the abundant water supply, even the slave labor team still made a few pots of salted broth, soaked in dry food to eat quite good, with the current conditions, to have such a dinner, is already very good.
Luo Tian, an outsider, was not treated differently, and was also given a bowl of salted broth!
Because the personnel of the escort team have to maintain their physical strength, they have an extra piece of jerky than ordinary people.
As for the people in the carriage, they were food alone, and the convoy also brought a set of kitchen utensils, and the water used was also the well water that the convoy had stored before, which was completely separated from the convoy.
The people in the carriage, Luo Tian didn't see either, and when he ate, the food was delivered directly to the carriage.
After dinner, Luo Tian went directly back to the tent, the tent was not wide, just enough for one person to sleep, this was the previous convoy attack, casualties left!
After a night of silence, the caravan set off again early the next morning, and if nothing else, the caravan would arrive at White Marks this evening.
