0047.Bitter Shore Swamp (2)

Hodge smiled humbly, two small dimples bloomed on his cheeks, his slender eyebrows were slightly raised, and his short chestnut hair was quite naturally placed on his forehead.

This is a young man whose charm can no longer be summed up by his handsomeness, and the head of the accounts, Marcus, is secretly frightened, thinking that it is fortunate that his daughter Alice did not follow the caravan as in previous years, but went to study first aid at the Van Le Academy in Buya City, otherwise if Alice saw the handsome smile of this young man, I am afraid that even the soul will be snatched away, which is not a good thing for a father.

"You're gracious, President Morgan, what a favor. Instead, I have to thank you and others for agreeing to carry us on such a long journey. ”

Hodge's tone was sincere, and he didn't hear the slightest hypocrisy, he did have reason to thank Morgan, after all, in such a chaotic world, there were not many enthusiastic people who took three strange travelers to travel thousands of miles without taking a penny, no matter what the reason, he had a sincere gratitude to all the people of the Tun Lo merchant group.

Morgan is a standard northern man, bold and direct, straight and never twisted, and immediately shook his head like a rattle: "No, these are two different things, accepting guests is the rule of the north, and the value of this set of calculations you listed for us is far more than what we give you, this kindness Dun Luo will never forget." ”

His big rough hand slapped Marcus on the shoulder, let go of his throat and said, "Old man, let everyone camp and rest here, by the way, ask Matthew to pull out the half of the sheep in the four compartments and cook it, today is a day worth celebrating!"

With that, his hearty laughter resounded in the carriage.

......

Hodge took two skewers of roast leg of lamb from the campfire and sprinkled them with fennel powder provided by the Chamber of Commerce, the smell of which would have driven hungry people crazy, but luckily he had filled his stomach, otherwise he was not sure how much meat would be left when he got the two fragrant skewers of roast leg meat to the final carriage.

As soon as she walked into the stopped carriage, she happened to see Daphne pulling out a cloud of dark green herb powder from the mashed medicine scoop and smearing it on Matthew's ankle who had just fallen to the ground and twisted his foot because of his too quick movements, the cool touch made Matthew's body tremble, and Hera, who was beside her, acted as her well-behaved assistant, ripped off the white bandage, slowly wrapped it around Matthew's ankle, and went around three times before cutting the bandage with a knife, and skillfully knotting the bandage to fix it.

"It's not a big deal, get some rest tonight, you should be able to walk normally tomorrow morning. ”

Touching Daphne's lake-like eyes, Matthew hurriedly lowered his head, his face turned crimson, and thanked him repeatedly, "Thank you, Miss Daphne." ”

"Hmm. Devine nodded nonchalantly, handed him the wooden crutch made improvised next to him, and after a few more words of advice not to exert himself vigorously before the pain disappeared, he limped away with the wooden crutche, and turned his head to look at Hodge standing near the stake on the tethered horse: "You still want to hide with such a fragrant kebab?"

"I didn't hide. Hodge stepped out of the shadows, shrugged his shoulders, handed Daphne and Hera two skewers of roast leg of lamb in his hand, and said to himself, "I just thought it was a ruin to walk in." ”

"It's so popular. Hodge turned his head to glance in the direction Matthew's boy had left.

Daphne gently tore off a trace of crispy mutton with her snow-white teeth, chewed it slowly, and saw that Hera was scalded by the leg of mutton because she was in too much of a hurry, so she took the kettle next to her and carefully fed her to drink, so that her red little face gradually flattened.

"Slow down, it's hot. She slowed down and instructed Hera.

Ever since Hera woke up from that awakening sleep, Hodge had found that she seemed to have forgotten a lot of things, perhaps because the blow she had received was too cruel, and her subconscious had sealed away some of her memories and personality in order to protect her, in short, she had forgotten a lot of things, even common sense knowledge, which needed to be slowly retaught to her.

She rubbed Hera's fluffy hair, smiled dotingly, turned her head to take Hodge's words, and said, "Still not as popular as you, I heard Matthew, you are showing off your arithmetic ability again?"

"Help, just help. Hodge replied curtly.

"You should have been more low-key, it's too eye-catching now, and you should know that it's not necessarily a good thing for us. ”

All three of them are wizards, and they are all in danger of being exposed and caught "slicing" at any time, and attracting the attention of others too much is not a happy thing for them to hide their identities and mix in the merchant group.

"Aren't you the same, a skilled herbalist, still a woman, and so beautiful, will not attract less attention than me. Hodge's quick thinking came in handy at this point, quickly finding the holes in Daphne's words and countering them.

"It's not that I'm transfigured, it's just ...... Do not say. Devonie sighed lowly, in order not to attract too much attention, she made some adjustments to her and Hera's faces with potions before boarding the carriage of the Tun Lo merchants, and even surfaced freckles to ensure that the desired effect was achieved, but the face could be changed, and the figure could not be adjusted, even if she was veiled, her slender and seductive figure attracted countless eyes.

"I just want to help them, after all, someone else has carried us so far. She finally got what she wanted to say.

"That's what I thought too, President Morgan, they were so kind to us, they had to repay them. Hodge glanced at him, and pretended to be casual when he said, "Besides, if it weren't for someone's mistake, we wouldn't have had to go so far now." ”

Devonne's face suddenly turned red, a little shy and annoyed, and finally she resigned herself to her fate in frustration and did not answer.

After they left the small village in the north, the first thing they went to was Daphne's residence, which was a small cabin built on the shore of the Lake of Thorns far from the town, with no shortage of food and water around, and very few people, and it was a treasure land that could be lived in for a long time, but when Daphne taught him and Hera to use the embracing spell, the flames did not open the door for her to cross to the other side of the lake of thorns, but climbed up to the cabin in a frenzy, and turned it into charcoal in the blink of an eye, without even leaving time for Daphne, as a witch councillor and"Master" powerhouse, such a shoddy mistake really shouldn't be.

Forced to move in the predicament of having no house to live in, according to Devany, in Antler Bay, in the northwest of the northern border, where her best friends lived, they could go to the place, a journey of thousands of miles, it was obviously unrealistic to walk on their feet, and they had no money at all, but fortunately they met the warm-hearted Tun Luo merchant group to solve the problem.

Hodge once questioned why she didn't just open a portal to send them to Antler Bay, if she wanted to be lazy, Devany replied quite simply, first of all, her portal was a real flame, if Hodge wanted to experience it and become humanoid coke, she didn't recommend it, and secondly, the maximum teleportation distance of the portal was only one or two miles, otherwise she could have teleported directly to Hodge, who was trapped by the wolf and awakened for the first time, and why did she have to sneak into the spiritual world to set that troublesome lock.

This answer is quite reasonable.

The Tun Lo Merchant Group will target the largest trading city in the Northwest, Thran, passing Stone Fort on the way, where the three of them will part ways with the Chamber of Commerce, and then sail to Downwind Harbor, crossing the small plains to Antler Bay.
