Chapter 11: The Caravan Night Attack (Part II)
On September 28, 117 years of the Nas Chronicle, the snow fell in the twenty-fourth village of the city
Harold led the girl in white to the luggage compartment at the back of the car, pointed to the lock hanging on the luggage compartment door, and pleaded eagerly: "Wu Ling said that your sword is as sharp as clay, hurry up and split this lock!"
The door lock was a large black lock, and by the moonlight I could vaguely see that there were several slashing openings on it, which were very new, obviously just cleaved.
The girl in white glanced at the lock and glanced at Harold with disdain.
Harold understood what the girl in white meant, and quickly added, "I didn't dare to exert my strength for fear of alarming the coachman." Your sword is faster, hurry up!
Before Harold could finish speaking, the girl in white's Sunbreaker Silver Sword was already unsheathed, and then with a crisp click, the lock was split in two, sliding into the gravel of the road, and the entire steel plate of the luggage compartment door was also pierced, with a neat cut of more than half a meter.
Harold looked at the extra laceration in the luggage compartment door, touched his neck, swallowed, and glanced back at the front of the car, where the driver was looking in the direction of the robbers in the distance, not noticing. Sure that everything was fine, Harold Lisso opened the hatch and slipped inside, rummaging around.
The first to fly out of the baggage compartment were Wu Ling and Harold's four packages, and as soon as the four packages landed, Harold pouted and fell backwards from the baggage compartment, the muscles in his arms were tense, his teeth were grinning and panting, and he was dragging a mechanical bicycle in his hand. The mechanical bike with a body looked heavy, and the tires sneered against the floor of the luggage compartment.
"You pig! The wheels are locked!" The girl in white pushed away Harold, who was about to lose his strength, and slashed at the rear wheel of the car, and in the process of returning the sword with one hand, the girl pulled the mechanical bicycle out of the luggage compartment with one hand, and with a bang, the mechanical bicycle successfully completed the landing.
Harold was slapped in the face twice in a row and was very depressed, but he had no chance to use his mouth cannon at the moment, he really couldn't save face, squatted on the ground and didn't say a word, looking at Wu Ling who was running quickly. Behind Wu Ling, the driver was attracted by the sound of the mechanical bicycle falling to the ground, and was rushing to the rear of the car in small steps.
Wu Ling rushed to the back of the car, leaned on the back of the caravan and poked his head out to observe the pursuing enemy, the seven horses were less than a hundred meters away from the caravan, gasped, turned around and glanced at the coachman who was about to go to the luggage compartment, his heart was very anxious, and shouted to Harold: "Harold! The coachman will be handed over to you! I have to find a way to get them off the horse!"
"Where's the luggage?"
"Take as much as you want!"
"You, get your luggage in the car, I'll get the coachman!" Harold was anxious to save face in front of the girl in white, patted his ass and jumped up from the ground, throwing down a sentence and facing the coachman directly.
The girl looked coldly at Wu Ling, who rushed to the front of the car, and Harold, who set off to intercept the driver, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and a sly smile appeared on her face.
"Big brother coachman, we have an urgent matter here, we want to buy your mechanical bicycle, let's make a price!" Harold pretended to take a cigarette from his coat pocket and give it to the driver, pointing to the mechanical bicycle behind him.
The coachman saw the crack in the hatch at a glance, pushed Harold away, and immediately blew up the pot, shouting, "You are buying, you are stealing! If I hadn't found out earlier, you would have run away! Oops, I just bought the lock last month! Oops, my hatch!"
"Ten thousand dollars!" Harold pulled his hand out of his pocket and shook his index finger in front of the coachman.
"Ten thousand dollars?" the coachman's eyes widened, unable to believe his ears.
Harold continued: "I'll give it to you now, you wait a while, why don't the lights come on?"
At this time, on the other side of the caravan, Wu Ling rushed to the front of the car, got into the car and pulled out the car keys, the caravan turned off, and all the lamps and lanterns on the car lost their light one after another, and the caravan was pitch black, and the vehicle suddenly screamed.
Wu Ling's intention was very simple, he wanted to use this sudden change to alert the robbers to slow them down, but Wu Ling was still too young, and he ignored the closest to him and the biggest variable at this time - the passengers in the car. Wu Ling listened to the panicked questioning voice behind him, and his heart completely raised his throat, once a passenger got off the car in a panic, in the eyes of the robbers, someone wanted to escape, and the robbers would definitely speed up and chase after them in order to ensure that the escape was not their goal, and the speed means that the mechanical bicycle carrying three people accelerated from a standstill and threw off the horses that were traveling at great speed, which was simply a fantasy!
But to Wu Ling's surprise, although the exclamations continued, no passenger had the intention of getting off the bus. It was many years later that Wu Ling figured out why the passengers on the bus reacted this way. When people encounter unknown unexpected situations, due to the uncertainty of the threat, people are more inclined to seek refuge than flee, and it just so happens that the carriage is an ideal looking bunker.
Wu Ling was in a false alarm, glanced at the robbers rushing from the left rear of the caravan, and the person who rushed to the front saw that the caravan suddenly turned off, and immediately tightened the reins, and at the same time waved his hand backwards, and several people behind obviously also made a move to tighten the reins, and the speed of travel gradually slowed down.
About twenty meters away from the caravan, seven people stopped, six of the seven were dressed in black leather armor, with leather visors on their faces, burly and muscular, obviously mercenaries. The other man was not wearing armor, but wore a dark red hooded robe with a low brim, so that he could not see his face clearly and could not distinguish his gender.
Wu Ling saw the seven people stop, and breathed a sigh of relief, now whether it was a ruffian or a mercenary, there was no longer a threat, and quietly retreated from the front of the car and rushed towards the back of the car.
At the end of the car, the negotiations between Harold and the coachman were not over, and the two men gestured to each other.
The girl in white had already loaded all her luggage into the body of the mechanical bicycle, staring at Harold coldly with her sword, and when she heard the sound of running from the front of the car, the girl in white walked quickly behind Harold, and suddenly accelerated and kicked Harold's ass.
The movements of the girl in white were completely unexpected by everyone, Wu Ling watched Harold fly out with a scream, and threw himself into his arms, and the two of them hugged each other and fell to the ground.
After the girl in white succeeded, she turned around and trotted a few steps onto the mechanical bicycle, threw the black steel swords of Wu Ling and Harold in the car to the back of the car, and said indifferently: "Just you still go to see the Naxin test? Didn't your teacher teach you not to leave your back to anyone? However, thank you, goodbye!"
After saying that, the girl in white started the mechanical bicycle and galloped away.
If the sudden light out of the caravan just now made the seven robbers more vigilant, then the two swords flying out of the back of the caravan completely confused their minds, robbers, you look at me, I look at you, I can't think of what happened.
Just when the robbers were confused, the roar of the mechanical bicycle broke the temporary silence, and the girl in white rode out of the front of the bicycle and disappeared into the night.
"That dress! Can't be wrong! Hurry up and chase me! What are you doing!" a shrill male voice came from the dark red robe, and he yelled eagerly at the black-armored man who took the lead.
The black-armored man who took the lead didn't even look at the man in the robe, and said impatiently: "What are you chasing! Layman! Have you never ridden a mechanical bicycle? This caravan is going to Snowfall City, and the day after tomorrow is the War College to recruit new tests, and she will definitely be caught in Snowfall City." ”
The man in the robe shouted angrily: "If you don't slow down just now, will you still use the day after tomorrow?"
The leading man in black armor looked at the man in the robe with contempt, and squeezed out two words, "Ignorance!"
Another man in black armor asked, "Boss, where are we going now?"
The black-armored leader man's eyes widened like copper bells, glared at the interrogator viciously, and shouted: "Repair in the twenty-four villages of Xueluo City, and set off early tomorrow morning." ”
The black-armored man was obviously dumbfounded, his head went blank, and he asked a lower-level question, "Boss, what ......is that?" What to do with this caravan?"
"You're uncle! We're mercenaries, not robbers! The realm of Dawning City is the territory of 'Yaksha White', and that girl has always been the master of the first to cut and then play, and the first person in the Scarlet Inquisition in Snowfall City is what you can mess with......?
The man in the robe was very eager to catch up with the girl in white, interrupted the words of the leader in black armor, and said angrily: "I have paid! Please respect your employer! I order you to rush to Snowfall City now!"
The leader of the black armor was already angry with his ignorant subordinates and was about to explode, and the tone of the robed man's command aroused the man's anger even more, kicked the horse's belly, rode around and came to the man in the robe, threw a loud slap to the man in the robe, and said contemptuously: "The surname Wan, don't think that I don't know your details, a dog who is called and drunk still dares to give orders to Lao Tzu, if it weren't for the rules of the mercenary world not to kill the employer, your neck has been pinched off by me!" We mercenaries have always taken the contents of the task book as the benchmark, and can complete the task if we meet the specified conditions, and you have no right to ask how we complete it! I warn you one last time, shut up honestly and follow along! If you talk nonsense, I will break your legs, the rule is not to kill the employer, and there is no rule that I cannot beat you!"
After speaking, the leading man in black armor blew two short whistles in a row, waved his hand, and led his men to run towards the twenty-four villages of Snow Falling City. The man in the robe didn't expect to be educated mercilessly by the leader of the black armor, he was stunned, watched the black armor man and his party leave, and then looked at the direction of the intercity highway, helplessly turned the horse's head and followed behind the black armor man and his party.
Wu Ling and Harold had been lying under the caravan, observing the group's every move. When these people walked away, the two of them climbed out from under the car together, walked to the back of the car together, and each picked up his own ink steel sword.
Harold carefully wiped the dust off the ink steel sword with his cuffs, and sighed, "Tut-tut, it's too much of an amateur, and it's going to be infighting before it starts, low-level and low-level, we were scared half to death by such a low-level, small-scale mercenary team." Don't tell anyone about this, it's a shame, it's a shame. ”
Wu Ling rubbed his temples with both hands, his eyes fell on the scratch on the door of the baggage compartment, and said helplessly: "This is not the most embarrassing, the most embarrassing thing is that we were played by a girl." ”
Harold squatted on the ground, sighed in disappointment, and said: "This matter must not be known to anyone! We are too careless, so we were used, Mr. Drake is right, the outside is really dangerous, the most poisonous is the human heart, the most poisonous is the woman's heart!"
Wu Ling moved to Harold's side, and was interrupted by the coachman as soon as he squatted down. The coachman came over with a few pieces of hemp rope and stopped at the hatch of the baggage compartment, wanting to tie the hatch temporarily, and touched the broken lock in distress before tying it.
"You two stinky boys, what are the mercenaries doing when they finish their tasks? What is the matter just now is not over! My mechanical bicycle, I just got a body, and I want to do some small transportation work back and forth, so that the two of you will be confused! Look at my luggage compartment again, this entire steel plate will have to be replaced!"
Wu Ling and Harold listened to the coachman's complaints, wondering whether to divide some of the Na coins they carried with them to bet on the coachman's mouth first, until the coachman mentioned the "luggage compartment", the two of them jumped up from the ground together, reminding each other, "Luggage! The luggage is still in the car body!"
"Come on, come on, pay off debts. The coachman was a timely reminder.
"There must be a lot of money for you!" Wu Ling said impatiently, rummaging all over his body, and made up a total of 120 Na Dollars with Harold.
"It's not even enough to go to Snowfall to see Naxin test, how can I pay for it?" Harold muttered.
"Alas, I can only pit my grandfather. If your dad sees an IOU of more than 10,000 dollars, you will have to wait for your dad to be beaten to death in three years. ”
"Anyway, we have to pay it back, let's get some more by the way, otherwise how will these two days be over?" Harold reminded with a cheap smile showing two rows of big white teeth.
"I know!" Wu Ling turned around and said to the coachman, "Brother coachman, you have also seen it, we have been looted, make a note for you, find the old man Wu of the Wu family's workshop in the thirty-fifth village of Xueluo City, the old man Wu is my grandfather, he will exchange the money for you at all." ”
"Old man Wu, I know, hurry up and write it. The coachman urged.
"We're going to borrow another 2,000 dollars. Wu Ling added.
"You two stinky boys, still want to borrow money?" The coachman showed full anger at Wu Ling's proposal, his eyes glared at the boss, and he screamed loudly, and the flesh on his chin shook rhythmically a few times.
"It's all counted in this IOU. ”
"Hurry up, the substitute driver will be here in a moment. ”
In the end, through the coachman's written evidence, Wu Ling and Harold successfully borrowed 2,000 Na Yuan, and successfully passed on all the losses and loans of the Che Driver to Wu Lao.
After the robbery incident that made the two of them ashamed of themselves, the journey to Snowfall City was very peaceful, Wu Ling and Harold were very heavy, and the two of them learned a lesson, in order to prevent such incidents from happening again, and to prevent them from being taken the initiative to be served by others again, one person divided 1000 Na Yuan and kept it separately.
