Chapter 0517: Nine People in the Caravan
Su Qi's luck was good.
Although the owner of this body was not wealthy, he still had the money to buy a necklace, and the owner of this caravan, the tall old man, was also very generous, and before arriving in the city of Sharo, he also gave everyone in the caravan a salary advance, which was enough for them to relax in the city of Sharo.
It is said that when the Great Jin Dynasty in the north was not established, there were already ancient ancestors living in this city, and today, Shaluo City has become one of the most important trade passes, but the interesting thing is that the city does not belong to any party, its rulers are the ancient aborigines of this desert, a total of ten top great cultivators are in charge of the city of Shaluo, these ten people are famous among the monks, even the Great Jin Dynasty is respectful when facing the city of Shaluo。
The camel caravan plans to stay here for two days, get rid of a batch of goods, and replenish some supplies, and then turn south to the Chaoyun Empire, where the camel caravan trade ends, the spices, jade and rare herbs brought from the west are extremely popular in the Chaoyun Empire, they can easily earn several times the profit, and in Shaluo City, they mainly sell some specific medicinal herbs, in addition to exchanging supplies, they can also use the money from the sale to buy some special jewelry of Shaluo and Dajin, these things are also valuable in the Chaoyun Empire.
When he heard that the end of this trip was the Chaoyun Empire, Su Qi had a strange sense of relaxation, this trial was finally related to Emperor Yun, but he didn't know what connection this camel team had with Emperor Yun.
After all, one is the high-ranking Terran Emperor, even when he first stepped into cultivation, he was also the unspeakably expensive Cloud King of the Chaoyun Empire.
The other is a camel caravan on a hard trek in the desert, although these people seem to have no worries about food and clothing at all, and they can even be said to have a little money, but they can't be compared with Emperor Yun in any case.
The most important thing is that there are no monks among these people at all! they are all ordinary people, and there is an insurmountable gap between them and the monk class represented by Emperor Yun, how will the two parties be connected?
Maybe Emperor Yun bought their goods, but what does this have to do with the trial?
The so-called trial is nothing more than a test of three things, one is strength, the second is talent, and the third is the state of mind, but Su Qi is just an ordinary person now, this trial must have nothing to do with strength, and from the perspective of his body's identity, it is difficult to have anything to do with the test of talent, so this trial is mostly to test the state of mind.
And the test of state of mind is nothing more than a test of Su Qi's choice in the face of difficulties, and his insistence on inner determination and morality, all of which are undoubtedly related to the fate of this camel team in the near future.
Su Qi, who realized this, also began to carefully observe his companions.
The tall old man named Chu Dong, is the owner of this camel team, it is said that the ancestors of the family were rich businessmen in the Northern Jin Dynasty, but unfortunately the family fell in the middle of the road, from his father's generation moved to the west of the Darong Empire, began to rely on the connections left by the ancestors to run business in this desert, these years have also accumulated a lot of family business, there are a total of four camel teams under his hands, it stands to reason that he can retreat behind the scenes, and hand over the camel team to his two sons to take care of, so as to enjoy a rich old age, but this Chu Dong has not been idle, even if he is old, he still decided to personally lead this new camel team, in this desert that has struggled for most of his life。
But after all, the age is there, this trip to the camel team is actually the last in his life, and when he returns to Darong, he will hand over this camel team to Gao Shen, the second-in-command of the camel team.
Gao Shen is also a strong man, Su Qi heard that he is an orphan, he was adopted by Chu Dong since he was a child, he grew up in the Chu family, and Chu Dong's two sons are like brothers, so he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility and became one of the leaders of the Chu family's four camel teams, Gao Shen's camel merchant is experienced, except for him, the other seven people in the camel team are actually novices, the most one only ran three times, the least is the tall girl, this is her first camel merchant trip.
Gao Shen has a bold personality, looks like five big and three rough, but in fact he is careful and cautious, in charge of the money and goods of the camel caravan, and he is also responsible for the negotiation of troubles, and the popularity in the camel caravan is very good, and the seven people not only regard him as the future leader, but also as a brother-like figure.
The backbone members of this camel team are three big men, and they are also the same batch of 'veterans' who joined this camel team, and the three of them were originally newcomers to another camel team.
Among the three, Yuan Qi and Yuan Ping are a pair of brothers, born in a farmer in the Darong Empire, the family offended the officials because of something, and was almost sent to the army and was rescued by Chu Dong, so it can be said that he is loyal to the Chu family, and the other person is named Zhao Ming, a native of Shaluo City, when Chu Dong led the team to Shaluo City last year, he volunteered to join the camel team, Zhao Ming can be called a living map of this desert, with him, this camel team is difficult to get lost.
The remaining two men and women are newcomers.
The man who talked to Su Qi during the break in the camel team was named Song Zhi, and Su Qi joined the camel team at the same time, both of them were second runners, and the relationship in the camel team was also the best, Song Zhi belonged to the kind of person who had no heart and no lungs, and he always spoke with no brains, but he was actually very smart, and all he said was the big truth that hit the hearts of others, so he often angered the two women in the camel team, either beaten or scolded.
And those two women, one named Nangong Mo, is the person Su Qi's owner of the body has a crush on, and is also from the Darong Empire, and the other youngest girl is named Chen Chuchu, this name is not a person from the Darong Empire, because the name of the Darong Empire has always liked single words, there are very few double words, and they don't know how to use overlapping words, Chen Chuchu is said to have been born in the Chaoyun Empire, but he followed his parents to Darong to live when he was very young, and his parents died suddenly of illness last year, so he joined Chu Dong's camel team to ask for a life.
And Su Qi finally knew the name of his body.
Sikong Zhuo.
It seems that this is a very rare surname with a strong background, because when chatting, Song Zhi once made jokes.
"Maybe Ah Zhuo is a descendant of an ancient family, maybe one day a great cultivator will suddenly come to the door and take Ah Zhuo away, and when the time comes, Ah Zhuo, you will have to take care of our old friends. ”
The people here also call the monk an interesting one, neither a monk nor an immortal, but a practitioner.
