Text: Chapter XXIV.
"We're some of the shipwrecked, please let us rest here for the night, and if you can, can you give us some more to eat?"
Looking at the butterfly man in front of him whose arms were covered with beast erosion blue scales, he didn't mean to drive himself, so Miss Luo and Bin helped the unconscious Cong to sit down by the bonfire, and her eyes flickered to look at the burnt roast meat that was baking on the fire and exuding an extremely attractive fragrance. - When I get home, I must eat a large bowl of meat every day!
Miss Luo, who had never been hungry, was so eager to fill her hungry stomach with all kinds of food for the first time!
Hunger, it really is a terrible desire that is completely unbearable!
"Now, take it. ”
"Don't look at this piece of sand beast meat, this thing just smells fragrant, in fact, the taste is no different from biting beef tendons, and it has a strong smell, which is not something that a superior person like you can swallow. ”
After discovering that the three young men who came out of the darkness did not pose any threat to him at all, Pi put the rusty saber back into the scabbard, took out a bag of dry food kneaded by coarse wheat from the luggage on the side and threw it over, while pointing to the somewhat mushy beast meat and frowning. - It seems that most of the sand beast meat that I finally hunted today can only be wasted.
The sand beast meat, which has a very poor taste, has a thick and smelly taste and a dry and astringent taste like sawdust, so even the most picky eaters in the desert have to shy away from it!
"Thank you so much!"
Watching the fierce expression of the butterfly man who vigorously cut off the charred part of the barbecue meat, sawed off the remaining beast meat one by one with a knife and stuffed it into his mouth, and the green tendons on his face burst out and chewed hard, Miss Luo's appetite for the fragrant barbecue meat suddenly disappeared. - This middle-aged uncle would rather gnaw on the unpalatable beast meat himself, but gave himself the relatively easy-to-swallow dry food, and it seems that the tribe is not as indifferent as his father said.
"Excuse me, what do you call it?"
"When we return to Lizard Town, we will definitely repay you for saving your life!"
After distributing half of the palm-sized dry food coarse cakes in the package to Bin, Miss Luo devoured the dry and hard food. As Miss Luo, who has received elite education since childhood, she has already arranged his position in the Chamber of Commerce for this cold-hearted butterfly man in her heart.
As a huge commercial force spanning several large tribes, the Luo Chamber of Commerce is in great need of some enthusiastic people like the Butterfly Clan men to serve as patrol envoys to reconcile and appease the various disputes within the Chamber of Commerce.
Only this kind of person who seems to be breezy is the type of person who is worthy of being entrusted with a heavy burden.
"Pi is just an ordinary scholar of ancient culture. ”
"As for the reward, there is no need, I will set out early tomorrow morning to find the ruins, and now this camp will be given to you. ”
Concentrate on dealing with the unpalatable roast skin in his hand, and not pay too much attention to what the gorgeously dressed girl said. Because for a scholar who is obsessed with the study of ancient culture, in addition to the necessary living materials, there is only the splendid treasure of Dao pattern knowledge, which can impress his heart of seeking the Tao.
And after leaving the ruins of this ancient giant city, Pi didn't believe that he could take out these magnificent ancient cultural relics from other places as a reward!
"Tomorrow?so soon?!"
"Well, since the Leather Scholar has something to do, then I have only one question left in the end. ”
"Where are we now, how far are we from Lizardtown?"
Looking at Pi's indifferent expression, Miss Luo understood in her heart that it was not idle items that could impress this strange person, so she put out her intention to attract him to join the Luo Chamber of Commerce, and instead asked the most important question for the three of them. - As long as she knows where she is, Miss Luo can decide whether to rush back to Lizard Town or follow this leather scholar for the time being.
"This place, of course, is the Chaos Desert!"
"By the way, how the hell did you get here? You don't even know where you're going?!"
"If you want to get to Lizardtown, it's about three days away. ”
"But depending on your current situation, it is estimated that you will have to walk for a week, and you may not be able to get there. ”
Slightly surprised by the ignorance of the three young men, Pi pointed to Satoshi, who was lying on the edge of the campfire, breathing almost indiscerningly, and shook his head. - If you carry this seriously wounded person who seems to be dying, it is estimated that it will be very difficult for them to survive tomorrow with these two delicate and tender little girls.
Although there are no dangerous super-powered creatures with strong strength like the rock lizards living in this area of the ruins of an ancient giant city, the scorching heat and lack of water in the Chaos Desert itself is the biggest killer.
"What? a week?!"
"We're never going to make it that far!"
"Please, Scholar Skin, could you please do us a favor and escort us back to Lizard Town?"
"I ...... I'll pay you a lot!"
Hearing such a long return time, Miss Luo had already extinguished the idea of going back on her own, and couldn't help but ask Pi, who had become indifferent, with a glimmer of hope. - As long as there is a person with rich experience in survival in the wild, such as Pi, as a guide, then the eating and drinking trio can quickly and safely rush back to Lizard Town within the best time limit.
"I don't need to!"
"Okay, don't talk about it, I have important things to do tomorrow, and I have to rest. ”
Hearing that Miss Luo had some excessive requests, even if she had a good temper, she couldn't help but feel anger churning in her heart. - I can kindly take in you young people who are in distress, and I have accumulated the blessings of your previous life!
Even if you want me to give up the job I love at hand and escort you strangers?!
"Uh...... Hello ......"
Looking at the skin that had already folded his clothes and turned over with his back to him, breathing quickly and slowly and falling into a deep sleep, Miss Luo opened her mouth helplessly, and finally swallowed back the words that she wanted to identify herself. - I remember that Satoshi once said that you must not reveal your true identity to outsiders.
Because it brings unnecessary danger!
"Report to your lordship, the cave has been searched entirely. It's exactly like a naturally formed cave, not even a trace of human activity has been left!"
After hearing the report of his subordinates, the fat and folded face of the mayor of the silkworm clan in Lizard Town became more and more ugly.
And around him, several heads of large chambers of commerce who were equal in power in Lizard Town, their faces turned pale in an instant, and even their bodies began to tremble slightly uncontrollably—— unlike the reverence of the Luo Chamber of Commerce insiders for the president, in the eyes of the rest of the large chamber of commerce forces of the Kun clan, the president of the Luo Chamber of Commerce was completely no different from death!
You must know that the second-ranked Luo Chamber of Commerce is President Luo, a ruthless man who came out of the Yu Clan, and a huge force that was beaten out of the hands of the Kun people with one hand and one foot!
The Fly Chamber of Commerce, which was originally ranked second, and now has fallen into the stream, was completely crippled by President Luo, a terrifying powerhouse!
And now, this cold-blooded god-killing beloved daughter has disappeared in this lizard town!!
If the person can't be found before President Luo gets the news, then the group of people present can already be said to have been pronounced dead!
You will definitely not be able to escape the hunting of the terrifying Shadow Guard Legion of the Luo Chamber of Commerce!
"Made, send me all the garrison legions, and turn over a radius of thousands of miles with Lizard Town as the center!"
"Remember, the main search is to the area leading to the direction of Caocheng! Once anyone finds traces of Miss Luo's whereabouts, the whole team will have a bounty of 10,000!!"
After a lot of storms, the mayor of the silkworm tribe did not despair immediately, and made a decision after a simple thought. - Since Miss Luo is guarded by two guards, if she can escape this terrible attack, then she will definitely move in the direction of Grass City, because only there is the safest place.
"Issue a recruitment order, spend a lot of money to recruit all the mercenaries in Lizard Town, and go to the direction of the Chaos Desert to search, and you can't let go of any human traces!"
After several chamber of commerce stewards discussed, they decided to send their own men to assist the garrison legion in searching the direction of Grass City, and then recruit a large number of people to search in the direction of the Chaos Desert. Although it is extremely unlikely that Miss Luo will escape to the Chaos Desert, they don't want to let go of any chance of survival.
