Chapter 56: Like an old father with six children
"That's it, let's get out of here first, and if we don't have enough money, we can stop in other cities we pass by."
Pulling out the short sword stuck in the leg of the thug who intended to sell Tsukushi, Ling Ze wiped the blood on the guy's body, and then put the short sword back into the scabbard.
In the end, Ling Ze still gave up the idea of continuing to fish for a few more scumbags, although there were still three girls here who had not gone out to be bait, but four high-grade "goods" appeared in a short period of time, it was difficult to say that it would not arouse the suspicion of those scum.
If the local snake gang in the slums of Fuyang City is lured out, it will inevitably break out into unnecessary turmoil.
Although Ling Ze has now unlocked the [Romantic Fort Pumpkin], he is confident that he can kill all the scum if he really starts with the miscellaneous soldiers in the slums.
But since he could achieve his goal without provoking them, Ling Ze still chose not to cause more trouble for himself in line with the principle that more things are better than less things.
After all, they still have to hurry, there are only four days left before the time set by Gozzi, but they don't know how far the remaining distance is.
Although Ling Ze had found a way to greatly speed up their journey, the sense of urgency was still pressing on them, and no one wanted to know what the consequences of Gozzi were talking about.
“......”
In fact, the other children didn't have much sympathy for this person who intended to be bad to Tsukushi, after all, this kind of thing is really common in the slums, which is a very sad fact.
A cold-faced and kind-hearted character like Nahaxiu, as well as the gentle and sensual character that Tsukushi and Chitomi often show, only felt a little that Ling Ze's attack was indeed decisive and ruthless.
After this incident, they all had a very intuitive feeling about Bill's previous description of Ling Ze.
The stunned Boni has a deeper fear of Ling Ze, and it is obvious that Ling Ze's image in her heart is made up of negative labels.
After all, Ling Ze's way of expressing his tenderness and concern is most of the time through preaching or criticism, just like a worried old father.
In the eyes of Boni, a straight-headed guy, this is obviously not caring and gentle, so she has not changed her opinion of Ling Ze like Cornelia.
And Cornelia's character is like that, although she is very intelligent, but there will always be some unnecessary gentleness, she has not yet undergone cruel training, and she has not yet formed a character that will not be merciful to the enemy in the future.
However, in this situation, everyone is the only one who is looking at Ling Ze, although Cornelia feels that this is a little inappropriate, but she has no choice but to follow Ling Ze and them in a muffled voice.
In the slums, the roads are intricate, and in all kinds of alleys, all kinds of human tragedies are constantly happening.
Ling Ze and the seven of them relied on Guy's hearing and Tsukushi's eyesight to avoid pedestrians in the alleys, and occasionally if they encountered a crime scene like robbery or strong women, they would be very decisive to rescue them.
Although this kind of rescue can only help those people for a while, it can't help those people for a lifetime.
Of course, Ling Ze did not forget to backhand the robber with a "return the favor of the other way", just as he was still worried about the fact that the money might not be enough.
As for those scum who were carried away by desire, Ling Ze directly sacrificed his short sword to deal with it.
And in addition to these small episodes, they went all the way smoothly, and they were not noticed by any strange people, after all, with Ling Ze, the central command tower that can see from afar, it is difficult for anyone to evade their detection.
It was still necessary for them to act so cautiously, because not long after entering Fuyang City, Ling Ze had already discovered that someone was targeting them, but those people were all thrown away by Ling Ze and them in the slums.
What is the identity of those people, Ling Ze and they are very clear, it is nothing more than the profession of human traffickers, but there is a difference between the identity of a private gang and the eyes of the nobility.
With the quality of Ling Ze and the seven of them in all aspects, it is not surprising that they are targeted by those people, which is actually one of the reasons why Ling Ze wants to get some money to hire a carriage quickly.
After all, although they did not hold gold in the downtown area, the seven of them were themselves walking "gold" in the eyes of some people.
"Ling Ze, can we eat meat today?"
As they made their way to the carriage, they passed by a roast chicken shop, and the wafting aroma was clearly ticking someone's stomach.
Ling Ze didn't even have to think about this question, he knew who asked it, and there would be no one else except the red pupil.
However, he can also understand it, after all, since they came out of the "Jifonora Tree Sea", they have all relied on water, dry food, and dried fruits to survive, and they have not seen even a shadow of flesh in the past two days.
Suddenly smelling such a fragrant roast chicken, Red Pupil, a heavy meat lover, will naturally be excited, although the other few people did not speak, but they must also be greedy in their hearts, but it has not reached the point of Red Pupil.
Ling Ze didn't hesitate much, he directly gave Nahaxiu some money and told Nahaxiu to buy three roast chickens and come back.
In the slums, Ling Ze had already inquired about the market for hiring carriages, and he knew that the amount of money in his hands was not enough to support them to take the carriage directly to Longxi County.
Therefore, Ling Zecai did not skimp on the money of these three roast chickens, he only needed to leave enough money for the next city.
When they get to the next city, they can go to the slums again and get some money to pay for the next stop, so that they don't cause a riot because they kill too many people, and they don't lose too much time.
And the people whose appetite was satisfied naturally had no objection to Ling Ze's arrangement, after all, the decisions made along the way were basically made by Ling Ze.
Ling Ze felt that he was really like a blind old father, and he worked hard to take his six children out for a poor trip.
"Ling Ze, you're so good!"
Listening to Chitong's praise of himself, Ling Ze felt that this old father still had some meaning, at least his position in the hearts of everyone was really very solid.
Of course, the other few people did not hesitate to praise themselves in the slightest, and they really wanted to praise Ling Ze to the sky.
"Two carriages, to Takayanagi City, the seat of the Daijun Governor."
After arriving at the car dealership, Ling Ze and the others quickly completed the deal and hired two carriages to go to the county magistrate's office next door.
If you go further afield, you may not be able to hire a carriage immediately, but if it is only the county seat next door, you don't even have to wait, and the driver of the car even promises to arrive before dark tonight.
This speed still made Ling Ze very satisfied, after all, from Fuyang City, the seat of Shanggu County, where they were located, to Longxi County, there were only seven counties in between.
Even if you can only walk three or even two counties in a day, the remaining four days will definitely be enough.
The carriage galloped all the way, carrying the children eating roast chicken, and when the sun was about to set, it arrived on time at the car shop in Takayanagi Castle, the seat of Daigun.
