1. Fisher
The whole sky was shrouded in clouds, and it was noon, but the sunlight could not penetrate the layers of clouds that could not see the end, and set off the whole unclean clouds into a desolation that was close to death.
The land below is a rugged, seemingly uninhabited wilderness. But every time the breeze blew, the soil on the ground trembled slightly, revealing patches of shining stars, blinking at a field of flowery and fluffy tents in the distance.
The fluffy tent was extremely pompous in color, with strands of sparkling sparkle hanging from the colorful background, which was set off by the text printed on the tent in Western Continental.
"Colenin Circus".
It's a circus that moves from country to country, and the content of the performances is probably not unlike what is traditionally known. Between the tents, all kinds of exotic animals are led around by the circus personnel; Many actors painted colorful heavy makeup, combed the fluffy wigs on their foreheads,
"Captain Colin, you're almost packed, and you can move on to Bryan City."
At the door of the circus, an employee dressed as a clown said to a middle-aged man with a big belly holding a cup of coffee in front of him. The man's hair was fluffy and messy, his beard had not been combed for a long time, and his belly full of fat could not be covered by the suit, making a men's suit as ugly as an iron bucket.
"Ahh Now that you've packed up, let's get ready.. Well, wait for the buyer, and we'll leave tonight if we don't come again. ”
"Okay, I'm going to tell them."
The clown ran back between the tents, and the man known as "Colin" rubbed his nose. The wind in the Bryan wilderness was as cold and hard as knives, and it was unbearable even for those like them, who traveled from kingdom to kingdom for many years.
It is also the most prosperous St. Nari, the most suitable place for people to live.
The middle-aged man thought as he drank coffee.
There is the most complete education system and medical system, and the brilliance of human civilization is found in every stone brick of the town there.
Instead of buying and selling here, the buyer also released his own pigeon and refused to come.
Colin glanced at the star-lit eyes beneath the dirt around him, but in the next moment, all the little elf-like creatures had retracted into the ground.
His pupils narrowed slightly, and he seemed to look into the distance of the boundless wilderness, and a crescendo of horses' hooves shattered the silence of the field like thunder. In the field where there was no road, a little black dot followed the horse's hooves in the direction of the circus.
"Are you coming..."
Colin obese: Well, the middle bus pouted a little, drank the last bit of coffee in the cup, turned around and handed the cup to the circus members, rubbed his hands, straightened his extremely fat appearance, and then stood at the door of the circus with a little polite smile, waiting for the arrival of the guests in the distance.
Two black horses pulled the carriage behind them, approaching the circus at great speed. Waiting a little closer, Colin saw the man sitting in front of the carriage, pulling the reins.
The man was dressed in an elegantly fitting Saint-Nari suit, the white gloves on his hands gently clutched the reins, and under the black gentleman's hat was a young, handsome and masculine appearance, but the expression without warmth made him drift away and gilded with a layer of coldness.
"Shhh
As the distance drew closer, the man seemed to tug at the reins, but the two black steeds in front of him seemed to be thwarted by a great force, and with a neighing head raised slightly, they paused their hot hooves not far from the circus, and gasped to a halt.
Colin hurriedly woke up from the stagnation of looking at the man's appearance just now, and secretly said that it was not good in his heart, but with a kind smile on his face, he walked in the direction of the carriage with his hands folded.
"Come from afar, welcome to the Circus Coranin, I'm the director of this circus, Colin, hello hello..."
The man took a companion cane from his side and dismounted from the side of the carriage, his leather shoes falling on the dirt of Brian's wilderness, and trampling the little spirit of the earth beneath the soil curiously to see what was going on above. The soil below jumped a few times, arching a small wave and moving into the distance, presumably those little elves running away.
The man's expression was very light, and he took off the hat on his head and said to Colin,
"Hello, Chief Colin, I'm Fisher, and I'm here to fulfill the order I booked."
Colin looked at the man in front of him, his brows jumped sharply, and then he rubbed his hands and smiled hesitantly,
"Hmm... I remember that it was Orn from Philorne who made the deal with me, not a decent gentleman like you... Or are you just here to see us perform, and that's a shame that we can only wait until Bryan City... Oh! ”
Before Colin finished speaking, Fisher in front of him tapped his cane, brought a faint smile, and then emphasized,
"It's an order, not a show, Mr. Colin."
“... Well, that, we're principled, in principle, since the order has been decided, then we..."
"Principles?"
Fisher, dressed in black, tapped the side of the carriage with his cane, and a small secret door opened, and out of it rolled a bag that smelled of blood. Judging by the length, it is just equal to an adult man, but I don't know if I can fit an obese person like Colin.
As it rolled, the bag landed right at Colin's feet, and the mouth of the bag opened slightly, revealing the fishy and frightened face of the man in the bag, who else could it be if it wasn't the original buyer, Orn.
Colin hurriedly closed his fat mouth, for fear that the smell of blood below would rush into his body and contaminate his body. He shuddered his eyes, and saw the gentlemanly man holding his staff behind his back, and pulling out a jingling bag from the same secret door, only this time it was full of gold Sinari.
This amount is more than the amount of gold agreed upon in the original transaction.
"Ahh Yes! That's right! Principle! Colin swallowed a mouthful of saliva, clapped his hands violently, and said righteously, "The most important thing to do in our line of work is principle." Since the agreement was made with Mr. Fisher, of course I would not give the deal to anyone else... Hahaha.. Haha, you say yes, right? ”
"Mr. Colin is a man of humor."
Fisher was still holding his cane, looking at the fat man in front of him with a smile in his eyes. In his bland gaze, Colin hesitated, grabbed the bag containing the gold coins on the ground, opened it, and after making sure that it was full of genuine gold coins, he ignored Orn, who was still in the bag on the ground.
As he said, he was indeed a man of principle, and this principle was measured by gold coins, and the direction was his heart.
Fisher put his hat on, ignored his actions, and just spoke,
"Let me see the goods."
"No problem, no problem, Mr. Fisher, please this way, please..."
Colin put the large bag of gold coins into the inner pocket of his clothes, and his fat body was also deformed by the action of his hard thrusting, but what was surprising was that under his seemingly difficult thrust, a large bag of gold coins actually stuffed into the inner pocket of his clothes, or more specifically, the fat inside the pocket.
He seemed to be a little fatter and even had a full hiccups.
"Which country's magic is this?"
Fisher asked with interest.
Noticing Fisher's gaze, he smiled awkwardly and explained,
"A little magic trick is not as good as real magic..."
Fisher nodded, no further questioning.
Even if it's real magic, it's probably the secret of this kind of person, there is no need to know the roots, and it's not his goal, as long as he can successfully get the goal this time, Colin will have nothing to do with him.
"There's a guest arriving, ready to pick them up!!"
Colin in front of him suddenly shouted and slapped his palm.
As the sound fell, the tent behind him seemed to come to life, opening a curtain like mouthparts, revealing the many actors, steam engines, and exotic beasts inside.
In it, small elephants beat like rats in the hands of actors, and many ghosts on the illusory steam train squeaked and screamed, and an actress took a sharp breath and spat out endless flames into the sky, and then a figure emerged from the flames and fell to the ground.
"They're all rehearsing... Especially those ghosts, they haven't sprinkled the appearance powder yet, so they can't see clearly, that thing is too expensive, and they don't dare to use it if it's not an official performance. ”
Colin led Fisher inside, introducing Fisher to their circus' signature show.
The locomotive of the Lingdu train is still built with spirits imitating real steam trains at a great price. Shrinkage, which uses magic to shrink huge creatures to match the performance. The fire spirit spirit, the figure in the fire is an adult fire spirit spirit, and the earth spirit spirit below the ground outside is a kind of creature.
Fisher's gaze fell on the dark purple coats of arms that lit up in the depths of the actors' clothes, and then withdrew his gaze as if nothing had happened.
Slave seals, as long as the seal is engraved, the life and death of the slave will be completely controlled by the seal owner, so all the staff of this circus are slaves.
The master is the fat man next to him, Captain Colin.
"These people are slaves."
"Ah, haha, you know that... That, the cost issue. Colin rubbed his hands in embarrassment, "Since the council members passed the Schoen Charter, the wages of the workers in the city are not the same level as before, and they have to pay the epidemic prevention chapter fee to enter the city... That's not a small amount of money for an honest businessman like me..."
He seemed to be very dissatisfied with the Constitution of Human Rights Schoen passed by the Kingdom Council, his fat face shook slightly, and he made a contemplative statement, "How do you say that, those parliamentarians, high-sounding blood-sucking guys, what God, let everyone enjoy a uniform minimum wage..."
"'The remnant and his heirs firmly promise God that under this Constitution, the adult working persons shall be permitted to receive the same minimum wage...'"
Fisher read out the original text of the constitution beside him, causing Colin to clapp,
"Yes, yes, that's it! Damn the Parliamentarian! ”
The Constitution protects all citizens of the Kingdom who are free and equal, young and old....
Except, slaves and filthy sub-races.
"Here we are, Mr. Fisher."
Having reached the end of the circus, in front of a black tent, Colin rubbed his hands together again and pulled back the curtain for Fisher.
Inside, in the dim tent, only a faint fluorescent lamp hung in the center, and all around, in the layers of iron cages, sobbing and trembling shadows crawled in the dirty dirt mixed with excrement and food, and the dark purple slave coats of arms in different positions on the body lit up, slightly revealing that the figures inside were different from normal people.
Fisher covered his mouth and nose, and seeing this, Colin bowed down and smiled,
"Mr. Fisher, just wait outside, and I'll have someone bring the goods out... As promised, five dragon-human females, right? ”
