Chapter 52: Deception
The speed of the man in white was very fast, although he still carried the wounded Hood in his hand, but in a moment's effort, he came to the place where Hood and the fat man had fought, and after a few glances, he galloped towards the west.
His long face was covered with clouds, his eyes exuded a strong murderous aura, Hood was carried by him in his hand, although the injury was quite uncomfortable, but he was silent and did not dare to make a sound, carrying Hood, the speed of the man in white was not affected, and he ran forward for an hour or two, but he did not see any trace, his pace slowed down, and he frowned and thought.
Hood couldn't help but speak, "...... Maybe they're heading south......"
The man in white glanced at him and didn't answer, Hu De was a little bolder: "With your speed, if they had continued to move west, I'm afraid they would have caught up long ago, and now, they should ......"
The man in white smiled, his smile was different from ordinary people, first the corners of his mouth twitched, and then slowly extended to his face, the smile looked very strange, although his face was full of smiles, but his eyes were still cold without a trace of temperature: "Oh, should, we can't be wrong anymore, if we let that elf escape back, everything will be in vain...... How much effort did it take to buy a few traitors in the elven kingdom, if it fails this time, then it will not only lose this plan, but also many things will have to start again, and you can't give up any possibility......"
After a pause, he looked at the west, and his face became pale: "At first, we also considered them to escape from the west, but there was a shortage of manpower, and such a road was extremely long and dangerous, so everyone didn't think so, so others did it...... Now we think they're going to the south, but what if they're going to the west?"
Shaking his head, the man in white sneered: "Even if I search the west first, and then turn back after I can't find it, where can they flee to?"
Hood didn't dare to say anything, but the man in white didn't let him go, and glanced at him with squinted eyes: "If you don't get hurt, we can search in two ways, hum......"
After running forward for more than an hour, gradually the trees began to thin out, and he saw that he was at the edge of the jungle, and every time the man in white walked out of a distance, he searched carefully, but found no trace, and had the idea of giving up in his heart, just when he was about to turn around and go south, he suddenly stood up and listened attentively.
After listening for a moment, he carried Hood and walked towards the west, and before long the tall trees were gone, and became low bushes, and Hood was carried in his hands, and the shrubs that kept passing by hung on his body or face, and cursed secretly in his heart.
After a while, the man in white rushed up a small hill, stood on the top and looked west, but seeing a group of people coming in this direction in the distance, Hood was secretly surprised: "At such a distance just now, he can actually hear the movement here, but I don't feel it at all, the strength of this guy is really unfathomable......
Although the distance was very long, it could be seen that the group numbered about a few dozen, carrying more horses than people, and carrying a lot of things on the horses, it was obvious that this was a merchant group.
The nomadic barbarians in the west are extremely xenophobic, no matter who enters the grassland, they will trigger their attack, and the only people who can freely enter and leave the grassland are about the merchant group, although the barbarians are aggressive and savage, there are many resources on the grassland, such as wine, such as metal, such as grain, such as cloth......
For the merchant group, the barbarians are still very welcome, they will exchange the things on the grassland for what they need, generally speaking, they will be more fair, there will be no forced buying and selling, of course, if it is really chaotic, there will definitely be no merchant group willing to come to the grassland to do business, this barbarian people know.
Although the vast majority of tribes do this, it doesn't mean that all barbarians will think so, some abide by the rules, naturally there are also those who take risks, and occasionally some barbarians will sneak attack and rob the past merchant groups, but that is only a very small minority, and if things fail, they will first be attacked by most tribes - and because of this, for so many years, the merchant group can maintain the willingness to enter the grassland to do business, of course, because of doing business with the barbarians, the merchant group has obtained very large benefits.
The man in white stood on the hill and watched for a moment, and suddenly galloped towards the merchant group, and soon, the merchant group found him rushing over, and suddenly there was a little confusion, and immediately a dozen or so warriors stood in a row, blocking the front of the convoy, and began to ask loudly.
On the grassland, although there are not many robberies, it is not nothing, so the warriors who enter the grassland will be brought by the merchant group, and the strength of these ten or so samurai is not bad, they are all junior and intermediate samurai, and when they see the man in white holding a person in his hand, he is rushing towards them, and he can't help but be secretly vigilant in his heart.
When the man in white ran fifty or sixty paces away from them, a warrior shouted, "Stop immediately, or we will attack......
The man in white didn't care about these threats at all, and his speed did not decrease, and when he got closer, a samurai shouted, "Release!"
Whoosh, five or six samurai shot long arrows together, and the long arrows came towards the man in white with a sound of breaking through the air, not that this merchant group was unreasonable, but in the wilderness, the man in white had already committed a taboo with such an action, and others had already greeted him to stop, but he still ran over, such behavior would make people misunderstand his intentions.
The man in white didn't care about the arrows that came over, raised his hand and waved it gently, and those long arrows suddenly flew to the side as if they were blown by a strong wind, and the warriors were stunned for a moment, but after walking on the grassland for a long time, these people's temperament has also become strong, although they know that the man in white is powerful, but no one retreats, and they all draw their weapons to meet them.
The man in white rushed into the middle of the samurai, punching and kicking, but as soon as he swept it with his fists and feet, some people flew far away, and in a moment, more than half of the dozen samurai fell, and a few were standing, but they were trembling and did not dare to step forward again.
At this time, it was about the person in charge of the merchant group, and a middle-aged man with a gorgeously dressed and rich face cowered from behind and saluted deeply to the man in white: "...... The...... This adult, we are just a small business, what needs the adults, just say it, if it can be satisfied, we will do our best to ......"
After a pause, he glanced back at the carriages and horses, hesitated, and gritted his teeth: "If the adults want our goods this time, then take them, please don't hurt our lives!"
Although this middle-aged man is a businessman, he is also very free and easy, knowing that he will give up the goods to save his life, the man in white stood coldly, and after he finished speaking, he asked lightly: "Have you ever seen three people ......?"
He roughly talked about the appearance of the three of Seth's fat man Monroe, but in fact, it was nothing, in this kind of place, there were very few people in the past.
The man in white is also arrogant to the extreme, he just needs to ask others, in fact, it is enough to ask from a distance, but he first beat the other party to the back of his horse before asking, maybe he disdains to explain, or maybe he wants to use force to make the other party dare not tell lies.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, a trace of surprise suddenly flashed on his face, and then his eyes couldn't help but glance behind him, the man in white was just asking casually, and didn't want to get any news from him, looking at his expression, his heart jumped, and he snorted softly: "You'd better tell the truth, otherwise, ......"
The middle-aged man trembled, seemed to be startled, and stammered, "...... My lord, not long ago, I did...... Indeed, two people came to ask us and paid for three horses, and I ...... I didn't want to sell it, but they paid a lot of money, so I ......."
The man in white was overjoyed, his eyes showed a little excitement, but his face was still cold: "There are only two of them?
The middle-aged man nodded again and again, as if there was sweat flowing down his head, and couldn't help but reach out and wipe it, the man in white was silent for a moment, and suddenly walked to the middle-aged man's side, the middle-aged man was startled, and his body couldn't help but retract behind the samurai next to him, but he was grabbed by the shoulder of the man in white, and suddenly the golden light shone in front of him, and the man in white dropped a large handful of gold coins, and said lightly: "Okay, I believe your words, this is a reward for you...... If so, if you lied to me......"
The middle-aged man felt a sudden pain in his shoulder, as if he was about to break it, and couldn't help but scream, but the man in white was shaking and had already walked away, and his voice came from afar: "If you didn't lie to me, I would come back to untie it for you, otherwise, you can wait for death slowly......"
The middle-aged man felt that the pain in his shoulder gradually spread to his chest, and he couldn't help but take a look at his clothes, but he saw that his shoulders were swollen high, and a red line spread along his shoulders towards his chest...... This is the fighting spirit of a high-level samurai, and if you don't have a high-level samurai to help you untie it, this fighting spirit will gradually invade your internal organs, and then blow up your internal organs......"
The middle-aged man's eyes widened, and he shouted in the direction where the man in white had left: "Hey, come back quickly, I lied to you...... Come back soon......"
Several samurai also shouted, but the man in white was so fast that he had already gone away, and the middle-aged man muttered with a sad face: "Damn, where did such a monster come out, inexplicable, I just thought that he was powerful, and we couldn't eat it in vain if we suffered a loss, so I lied to him, this guy is so ruthless......"
