Chapter 16: Ward Caravan (Today's 3rd Shift 2/3)

Although Miao Ke had walked this road from Flint City to the border city, after all, maybe many years had passed, and Miao Ke could not completely remember the route, so Duan Xiaofei chose a more secure way - to follow the caravan. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Since it is an intermediate city between demons and humans, there must be countless human merchant groups who come to the border city to trade, Duan Xiaofei chose a small caravan with a size of twenty people, and with 10 gold coins as a reward, let them follow the caravan to Flint City.

"Duan Xiaofei, your name is not common in the Xinze Empire, it must have come from the Eastern Great Yan Dynasty. "A middle-aged man in the caravan with a somewhat fat figure came up to talk, this man was named Ward, the leader of the caravan, and the owner of the caramel.

"That's right, I'm from the Great Yan Dynasty, I'm here to travel, this is my sister, and I've asked Boss Ward to take care of me on this trip. Since Ward proposed the country of the "Great Yan Dynasty", Duan Xiaofei simply admitted it.

However, he pulled Miao Ke over again and asked in a private whisper, "Miao Ke, what is the Great Yan Dynasty, why did this person think that I was from the Great Yan Dynasty when I said that my name was Duan Xiaofei?"

Miao Ke looked around, the people of the caravan were all gathered now, so she chose to use magic transmission to say to Duan Xiaofei: "Your Highness, the Great Yan Dynasty is the easternmost country in the Rich Continent, and the 'Duan' in the name 'Duan Xiaofei' you just mentioned is a surname only in the Great Yan Dynasty. ”

"The people of the Great Yan Dynasty are all like this?!" Hearing this, Duan Xiaofei's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked.

"Yes, Your Highness, how could you have thought of using the name of the Great Yan Dynasty as a pseudonym? This kind of naming rule is only used by the country of the Eastern Great Yan Dynasty on the mainland. Miao Ke replied.

In this way, the Great Yan Dynasty is very similar to the Earth Celestial Dynasty where he used to live? Duan Xiaofei guessed in his heart.

"Are the people of the Great Yan Dynasty black-haired and black-eyed?" Duan Xiaofei asked this crucial question.

"It's not. Miao Ke replied decisively, "Although the Eastern Civilization of the Great Yan Dynasty is different from the civilization of our Demon Race and the Western Civilizations of the Human Race, the characteristics of black hair and black eyes only exist in the Demon King lineage. ”

After some inquiry, Duan Xiaofei also learned some basic information about the "Great Yan Dynasty" from Miao Ke's mouth, in Duan Xiaofei's opinion, this is simply a copy of the ancient Celestial Dynasty's different world!

Except that they speak the "lingua franca" of another world and the human race in another world is all the same, the customs and habits of the Great Yan Dynasty are almost exactly the same as those of the Celestial Empire in ancient times.

Duan Xiaofei also secretly decided that he must go over and take a look at this Great Yan Dynasty in person.

As the two additional people who joined the caravan, Duan Xiaofei and Miao Ke did not sort out the items with them, but sat on the side and waited, and after about two hours, the leader of the caravan called Ward came over: "Mr. Duan, we are on our way." ”

Duan Xiaofei and Miao Ke walked over, and Ward pointed to the three people standing at the front of the convoy, and said: "These three are the guards hired by our caravan, and it depends on them to protect the safety of the convoy along the way. ”

"Well, we got it. Of course, Duan Xiaofei agreed.

"Hey, you two, even though you paid, I'm going to say something ugly first. One of the three mercenaries, a strong man carrying a big axe, said to Duan Xiaofei, "If you follow the convoy, we will protect your safety, if the two of you fall behind, then I'm sorry, if something happens, we can't help you." ”

"Of course. Although this person spoke a little directly, it was not rude to ask, and Duan Xiaofei also replied, "We will follow the team." ”

The caravan set off, Duan Xiaofei and Miao Ke followed the rest of the caravan and walked in the middle of a carriage, as for Miao Ke's matter of the magician, he didn't want to reveal it, this trip, just treat it as a civilian hitchhiking.

This caravan leader named Ward is also worthy of being a businessman, and he is also very skilled in talking to Duan Xiaofei, an outsider: "Little brother, I see that you and your sister are not martial arts practitioners, and I must have never heard of the danger of the Blue Forest." ”

"Oh, is there anything special about the Blue Forest?" Duan Xiaofei asked.

"Generally speaking, if you follow the people of the merchant group, you will not encounter any danger, but if you are unlucky, or you are alone in the forest, you will encounter demonic beasts. "I've been doing business between Flint City and Frontier City for more than a decade, and I've encountered several dangers......

Ward is a person who loves to chat, and Duan Xiaofei also knew Ward's experience after listening to his story.

It was five years ago, and Ward had been the same as this time, transporting grain to the border city to sell, and then returning with a caravan full of demonic crystals produced by demons, but in the depths of the Blue Forest, they were attacked by demonic beasts.

Although Ward also brought hired guards with him at the time, the power of the monster was not something that these ordinary guards could resist, and in that monster attack, Ward and his men abandoned the entire caravan of vehicles and goods in order to escape for their lives.

If he hadn't escaped in time, I'm afraid he would have lost his life in the Blue Forest, and besides, he could be regarded as having picked up a life and was not seriously injured, but Ward's younger brother lost his right leg in the attack of the monster.

Speaking of the attack of the monster, Ward could be regarded as having endless words, and finally realized that he was about to enter the forest, and he should not tell such an obscure story, so he stopped.

"Old and Young Master Ward, how many days will it take for us to set off from the border city and pass through the Blue Forest?" Duan Xiaofei asked.

"It's three days at the earliest, but it usually takes five days, and it's too dangerous to travel at night. Ward said.

――――――――

"Is the name, Duan Xiaofei?" Behind the big tree on the side of the caravan's assembly place, a purple-clothed woman smiled lightly and said, "Sure enough, the legend is true, His Royal Highness the Great Prince was summoned from another world." ”

"However, is the naming rule of the other world the same as that of the Great Yan Dynasty? The woman stroked her hair, and when she saw that the caravan had departed, she did not stop behind the tree.

――――――――

I have to say that it is better in modern society, a plane or high-speed rail can send you to your destination quickly, comfortable and safe, where is it like now, Duan Xiaofei is uncomfortable.

Although the caravan had horses, the path in the forest was winding and winding, and even if you were riding a horse, you couldn't go very fast, so the speed of the whole caravan was actually not much different from that of ordinary people walking briskly.

Fortunately, Duan Xiaofei has the tools for recreation in his hands, and he has been immersed in the world of rice mobile phones for half a day, and this afternoon may be the most focused afternoon Duan Xiaofei has read textbooks in his life.

During this time, Duan Xiaofei opened the electronic version of the biology book in his mobile phone, read it carefully, and consulted some popular science books in the e-book reader from time to time, and even wrote down a lot of text in the notebook APP on his mobile phone.

All of this was only after listening to Miaoke say what the magician named Mendel Lin had done, and for Duan Xiaofei now, these things are not related to his test scores, but also to his survival!

"Alright, it's getting late, let's set up camp here and set off tomorrow morning. The caravan marched, and the horses of the caravan, guided by the three mercenaries at the front, came to a halt in a relatively open meadow.

It may seem strange that the meadow is abruptly located among the trees, but it is easy to assume that it was often used as a temporary resting place by the merchant groups from the few traces of firewood burning left in the clearing.
