15. The royal caravan
In the middle of the jungle, a procession of about twenty people was marching, with a horse-drawn carriage in the center and a wagon pulled behind it, covered with a cloth that made it impossible to see the goods inside, and on which was embroidered with a large hot gold word "Wang".
Twenty heavily armed samurai surrounded the carriage and marched cautiously.
"Uncle Liang, haven't you arrived yet?" a crisp voice came from the carriage, and at the same time, the curtain on the carriage was lifted, revealing a girl's petite face, the girl's facial features were exquisite, but it was a beautiful billet.
The girl seems to be a little impatient, but the soft voice makes people unable to feel bad.
On the carriage, a middle-aged man with a leather whip in his hand was driving a unique mountain horse on the Wind #Moon Continent, and when he heard the voice behind him, he said helplessly: "Ran'er, we have only set off for a day, and it will take at least ten days to get home." ”
"Ten days!" the girl immediately complained: "So long?"
"I told you not to come, you just want to come along, the transportation is extremely boring, do you think you are going out camping?" Wang Liang turned his head and said to the girl with a headache.
"But no one has ever been to the Tianshan Jungle, so I'm curious!" Wang Ran knew that he was at a loss, and muttered back into the carriage.
At this time, one of the samurai in front of the leader suddenly raised his hand to signal the carriage to stop, and the people behind immediately stopped, then took the weapon in his hand and looked ahead vigilantly.
The bushes in front of him were separated, and then two people walked out, one was a slightly delicate young man, one of his eyes was still bruised with black circles on one side, as if he had been punched, and the other was wearing silver armor and carrying a long sword behind his back, judging from the style of the armor and the figure, it should be a woman.
These two people are naturally Tang Yao and Lin Xi.
Tang Yao was obviously surprised to see so many people, and looked at the word "Wang" on the truck.
There are two big families in Tianyun City, the Li family and the Wang family, which can also be regarded as the upper reaches of the second rate in the Yunchu Empire, these two families can be described as mortal enemies, but the two families have been working against each other in Tianyun City for decades, but no one can help anyone.
Part of the Wang family's business was to transport some herbs, animal skins, and some alchemy items from the imperial capital to Tianyun City for sale, and to make a profit, and this convoy was obviously transporting the goods.
The girl in the carriage noticed something unusual, and poked a small head out of the curtain to observe the two in front of her curiously.
"Are you all from the Heavenly Fortune City royal family?" Tang Yao asked as he took a step forward and clenched his fists.
Seeing that it was just two teenagers, everyone in the Wang family also relaxed their vigilance slightly and put away their weapons, after all, this is not polite.
Wang Liang jumped down from the carriage and hugged his fists and said, "That's right, under Wang Liang, I don't know the name of the little brother?"
"In the Tang family in Xiahua City, Tang Yao. Tang Yao said with a smile.
The surnames of the four major families of the Yunchu Empire are not unique, so the people of the big families always bring a prefix when they introduce themselves, such as the Huacheng Tang family, the royal Ji family, the Fengcheng Lin family or something, not only to show their identity, but also to highlight their noble identity.
Hearing this, Wang Liang didn't reply, and the little head behind him had already shouted: "You are the Tang Yao who contracted the skeleton and was dropped out of school?"
"Ran'er, don't mess around!" Wang Liang hurriedly scolded, and at the same time said to Tang Yao apologetically: "The family education is not strict, and please don't have the same knowledge as her." ”
Wang Ran knew that he was speechless, and playfully stuck out his tongue, and then got back into his carriage.
Tang Yao scratched his head in embarrassment, didn't he expect his reputation to be so big?
"Of course not, of course not!" what did he and a little girl think about?
"Are you from Tianyun City?" Tang Yao casually found a topic to relieve his embarrassment.
"No, we are coming from the imperial capital, is the little brother going to the imperial capital?" Wang Liang looked at Tang Yao with some strange eyes.
......
"This, is the direction to the imperial capital?" Tang Yao was silent for a moment, and said very sadly.
"Yes, little brother, don't you know?" The expression on Wang Liang's face was even more strange, wasn't he dropped out of the academy, should he be on his way home at this moment......?
Wang Liang finally thought of the reason, and said with a clear look: "Little brother, you are going in the opposite direction. ”
I know!
Tang Yao looked at Lin Xi, and said in his heart: "It's not that I don't know the way, it must be that I accidentally walked backwards when I walked out of the ground viper, I said why is this place so familiar, you can't blame me, if you want to blame Li Rongji, you can blame Li Rongji and them!"
"Uh, why don't you come with us, little brother?" Wang Liang thought for a moment and invited.
Although Tang Yao contracted a skeleton this time, this should not be a matter of talent, being able to become a first-order summoner at the age of sixteen is also a genius no matter how you look at it, and how to say that he is also a member of the Tang family, it is still worth befriending.
Tang Yao looked at it, although it was not safe to go out and form a team with others casually, but at this moment, in order not to get lost in the jungle, he still nodded.
"I don't know who this is?" Wang Liang nodded when he saw this, then looked at Lin Xi and asked.
"This is the skeleton of my contract. Tang Yao replied lightly.
"Oh, in this way, little brother, come here!" Wang Liang was embarrassed to open the topic, but as soon as he finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong, now Tang Yao was a guest, and he should be allowed to enter the carriage to rest, but now his niece is still in the carriage......
"It's okay, I'll just walk, I've already nagged everyone, where can I cause you more trouble!" Tang Yao saw the problem and took the initiative to laugh.
"Hey, that's it, but it's a snub to the little brother. Wang Liang was immediately relieved when he heard this, and couldn't help but glance at Tang Yaogao.
Obviously, although he came out of a big family, he didn't have the arrogance of the children of a big family, and he was obviously qualified in dealing with people.
"Uncle Wang doesn't have to be so polite, just call me Xiao Yao!" Tang Yao walked into the convoy and said to Wang Liang.
Wang Liang smiled, and became more and more satisfied with this Tang Yao.
Tang Yao belongs to that kind of delicate type, he looks a little shy, and he has the feeling of a big brother next door, so Wang Ran has a good impression of Tang Yao, and he is also outspoken when he speaks.
"Hey, is this the skeleton you contracted?" Wang Ran popped out half of his head to welcome Tang Yao on the side, just happened to be bored, and now he has a talking partner.
Wang Liang looked back, it was rude to inquire about other people's contract monsters like this, not to mention what if this was a thorn in Tang Yao's heart? But when he saw that Tang Yao's face was not different, he relieved himself.
Tang Yao looked at the little girl, her eyes were clear, just pure curiosity, and there was not the slightest disdain.
"Call my brother, call my brother and tell you!" Tang Yao said with a smile.
"Hmph, you said just now that it's your skeleton, so I won't call it!" Wang Ran rolled his eyes and said.
"Eh, now that you know, are you a fool?" Tang Yao suddenly looked at Wang Ran with a look of surprise and teased.
"You're a fool!"
"Brother Tang Yao, what's the matter with your eyes?" the little girl asked as she stared at Tang Yao's eyes, and at the same time, Wang Liang also pricked up her ears.
"I didn't sleep well at night and fell on the ground. Tang Yao glanced at Lin Xi and said.
