Chapter 126: Two Bachelors
Chapter 126: Two Bachelors
North of Suno City. ()
Inside an improvised carriage, two men in cloaks sat silently.
The coachman was a middle-aged man, dressed in a shiny vest, brandishing a whip and shouting at the livestock, and the mouth of the middle-aged man had not lived since early in the morning. When he was in the city, the middle-aged man seemed to know all the vendors on the side of the road, and he greeted him happily and shouted when he met his peers.
Although the two people in the car did not speak, the driver continued to talk, saying that it was a conversation, but in fact he was telling a story alone - it is estimated that whoever he met, the coachman would tell his own story.
"Gentlemen, our car is one of the best in Sunno City. At that time, the cars that ran Uxhall were all the cars of our car dealership. But you see, things are always so strange and changeable: the road to Uxhall was peaceful at that time, but there were occasional robbers, and we were still at war with the Yankees, so the road to the north was deserted; What now? We are very good with the barbarian king of the North Sea, but the south is fighting with our own people, and now we have changed the route to the north. ”
One of the men in the carriage nodded, presumably to let the coachman know that he was not interested in the coachman's business, but the coachman misunderstood the simple action, and the driver was encouraged by the gesture of approval.
"Very well, sir," the coachman smiled, "and it seems that you must be interested in the history of our car dealership." This car dealership was first established by a Yuswadia Yankee, and later Yuswadia separated from us, and our car dealership was taken over by the adults in the city. Later, some veterans who came back from the battlefield in the south came back and divided the cars. Some of the big soldiers got the carts and horses that were given to him, and they sold them for some wine, but our boss was really capable. He first hired three grooms and a car, and then pulled people from the city to the countryside, and then poured goods from the countryside into the city to buy, and slowly started his business, and after a few years, our car dealership belonged to him. ”
He also gave birth to a daughter who was extremely beautiful, and was said to be as beautiful as the moon. When the girl doll grows up, she will not be able to take care of it, and she will elope with a servant, which is really more bizarre than the legend, but then it finally did not come to pass. The servant was also lame, and I guess he didn't survive that winter, gentlemen, you know how cold it was, my God, I shudder at the thought of it. ”
"The daughter of our boss later married a nobleman from the prairie, and it was very lively. It's a pity that it didn't take long for the steppe people to freeze and couldn't stand it, and they came over at once. Our boss's family business collapsed all of a sudden, and no matter who in the city had relatives who died on the front line, they would be unable to do this business when they came to the door of our car dealership to cry. If it weren't for the fact that the boss had fought with the former king in the mountains decades ago, he might have been hanged as a spy. ”
"Well, the boss disappeared later, and our car dealership was divided into several stores. Our family was run by a bookkeeper in the past by the boss, and it was relatively strong, but the others were about to collapse. This battle will be fought for a few more years, and everyone will have to beg for food. ”
A man in the carriage ripped off the cloak on his head, in fact, he didn't need to wear the cloak anymore after leaving Su Nuo, but he always felt that wearing it was better than not wearing it. But now the coachman is talking too much, and he can't stand it.
"I said, how much do you have for a meal?"
"Huh? Mr? ”
"How much does it cost to eat a meal?"
"Oh, a loaf of bread, a small bag of wine, a few plums, or a few copper plates, seven? Or eight? You can eat whatever kind of food you want. ”
The man took a pinch of money from his pocket and tossed it to the coachman, "I say, you can start eating your lunch today." It's been all morning, can you take a break now? ”
The coachman thought quietly for a while, then turned back and asked, "I'll take half of the money, and you can keep the remaining half for me to speak?" ”
"Shut up"
Both men in the carriage shouted.
The coachman held the money in his hand, his face was flushed, he scratched his neck from time to time, and always wanted to speak, but when he turned around, he would see the two people in the carriage showing cold expressions, not to mention that he had taken other people's money, so he stopped talking. The only thing he regretted was that he felt that the price of his meal should be higher, and these two people looked like they could afford it.
The two people in the carriage now regretted choosing this light carriage.
There is a rule in the car dealership, if you rent a slightly better car, you need to register, and it is easy to attract attention, this kind of small broken car receives much less attention, but unfortunately I met such a driver, so that the two people in the car feel that they would rather take that kind of big car.
A man pondered for a while, and finally spoke: "Sabel, I don't understand why you don't want me to go to his son, as the old man said. ”
"If you don't go, he could be in danger. But if you go, he'll be in danger. ”
"Why is that? Don't be foolish, I can't stand you halfway through your words and not finish them now. The terrible curse you spoke of back then was actually fulfilled. ”
"Did the old man leave yesterday?" Sabel muttered softly to herself.
"Not good," the goblin twisted his fingers, "the old man's nose was already bleeding at that time, and the old man couldn't stand up when I left" ''He finally told me not to go to his son'''"
"If I were him, I wouldn't have let you find it."
"Why?" The goblin looked at the groom and whispered to Sabel, "I am a royal scholar, and I can freely travel to and from all the trading points of the White Bank Guild and the Stone Guild on the mainland." I can cover them, and when I go out of the border, the soldiers can't check the chariots. I'll have one more person to go, it's better than nothing. And I have something important to bring to him. ”
"Oh? What is it? ”
"Something that will allow Arcadio to make his life in the Northland."
"Oh, that's right." Sabel leaned against the wall of the carriage, not at all interested.
"Hey, don't you want to know what this is?"
"Well, you will say it yourself anyway, why should I make a curious face to satisfy you?"
"Uh'''' By the way, Sabel, before I say that, I want to ask, how did you say those things back then? I'd like to ask about this first. ”
"Which words?"
"Those prophecies."
"Drunk and talking nonsense. Haven't you seen the sign that says, 'Farmers drink this wine and cut wolf fur with their bare hands'. I drank it and casually talked about what happened. ”
"But, but" Old Arcadio was really at the wedding yesterday," the goblin lowered his voice again, "He'"
"You didn't see it, how do you know he must have walked at the wedding?"
"When I left, he wouldn't be able to do it."
"Then that's what it does."
"And. My wife looked up some of the new people in the North Sea, and you know who I found. ”
"Who?"
"Coachman?" The goblin suddenly shouted. The coachman shuddered, and looked back at the two men inside, his eyes wide.
"What's the name of that servant you just mentioned?" The goblin asked in a low voice.
The coachman shook the money in his hand and showed an inquiring expression.
"You say, I won't deduct your money."
"Haha, sir. I just said, how can a man not speak? How can people not chat? What did God give us a mouth for, and what did God give us an ear? It can be seen that everything in the world is reasonable as long as it exists'''"
"Hey, I'm just asking you what's that servant's name, you don't know."
"Ah, ah, that's a long story. There are two different sayings, the so-called two flowers bloom and each shows a branch''''"
"What's your name? You idiot. ”
"Uh''''Don't worry''Go'' David? No''', Oncomini? It's not, what's it called'''"
The goblin looked disappointed and said to Sabel, "I thought this man knew, but forget it, I'll tell you." ”
Sabel smiled, "Jill. Bianwen. ”
The coachman had a brand, "I remember Gill clearly, I have remembered this name in my heart for so many years, how can I never forget it''''
While the coachman was talking to himself excitedly, the goblin waited for Sabel and said, "You know him? ”
"Yes. After you told me about Winterspring University, I set out to investigate. This Jill "'is remarkable. Suffice it to say, Jill is more like the son of the Lord of the White Dove Valley than our uncompetitive students. ”
"'Huh,'' the goblin breathed, "and there's another guy who thinks the same thing. ”
"Oh? Who? ”
"Don't you think I'm going to say it? Why did you show a curious expression again? ”
"So what are you going to say?"
"Eh," the goblin shook his head, "it's the old lord of Arcadio." He gave me a spice barrel and you know what I found in it? ”
Sabel thought for a moment, "Spices? ”
"You're an idiot, I'll say it when I find the spice?"
"Maybe it will. Aren't the people in the scripts you write brainless? Especially those 'goblins', inexplicably there are beautiful women and subordinates who are loyal to them."
"Okay, okay, let's talk about this. The goblin looked left and right, put his mouth on Sabel's ear, and said something.
Sabel slowly took off his cloak and stared at the goblin, and then, with a strange expression, "Interesting" and "Interesting." ”
"Will your prophecy come true?"
"I said it, goblins. I'm just casually saying that the fate of the family has to do with too many factors. The old lord is gone, and his son, who is our student, with that kind of character and opinion, says something unpleasant, and it is only a matter of time before something happens. I just said the signs of fate in advance. Everyone has their own path, I just tell some people that there are many dangers on the road, and whether they can go on or not depends on how they grasp their destiny. ”
Sabel shook his head and said a lot of things.
The goblin was expressionless, but after Sabel finished speaking, the goblin suddenly had red eyes and grabbed Sabel's collar at once, "You bastard, I didn't take your words to heart, but now that something has happened to the old man, Jill may become the lord of Ranger City as you said, what do you make me think?" What to do with little Timmy? What to do with little Timmy"
"I don't know." Sabel said slowly.
The coachman looked back at the two of them with some embarrassment, "Two gentlemen, don't fight, don't fight, you have something to say." ”
The goblin slowly let go, "I''m sorry. ”
Sabel flicked his clothes and didn't say anything more. After a while, the deadlock was broken and he said to the driver, "When can I get to the Riblet checkpoint?" ”
"Don't worry, sir. Tomorrow night will be there, according to your requirements: change horses without stopping. We can be twice as fast as anyone else."
