Chapter 169: Dart

Qing'er is quite enthusiastic about this trip, and this is the first time she has gone far away, after all, when she has a memory, she has been staying in the Lu family, and the most important thing is that this time she is with the young master. Even the Sword Saint of Destruction, who wanted to make up for her kendo knowledge here, couldn't bear to speak at this time, as if he had disturbed others.

When he walked to the city gate, a long caravan actually occupied the city gate with a long snake, and a column of city patrol guards and city gate soldiers were checking whether there were any contraband, Lu Ming glanced at it and found that this caravan actually had seventy carriages of goods, in this area, except for the Lu family, this is a very large-scale caravan.

At this time, a merchant with a slightly fat figure and thick eyebrows and big eyes was accompanying the guards with a few people, looking at his clothes and temperament, Lu Ming knew that he was the master of the caravan. Not far behind this person, a team of twenty swordsmen as guards was quietly waiting for the inspection to be completed, and at such a distance, Lu Ming could also see that only one of them was a swordsman, and the rest were all in the realm of great swordsmen, as a swordsman who escorted darts and transported goods all year round, this was already quite a good strength, and among the five people brought by this boss, there was actually a swordsman.

The soldiers inspected several wagons, but found nothing wrong, but they refused to leave, signaling that they would continue to check them.

The caravan boss smiled knowingly, took out a few silver tickets in his sleeve and stuffed them to the soldiers, the leader did not procrastinate, after half-pushing and half-closing the silver tickets, he waved his hand directly, and the officers and soldiers who had already opened the carriage and rain cloth were not even interested in looking at the goods again. Evacuate instantly.

The boss sent these plague gods away, and exhaled heavily, although the officers and soldiers could not find anything even if they thoroughly investigated, but if the journey time of the goods was delayed, the value of the goods would be greatly reduced, and the losses would not only be there.

"Think of it as buying road money. The boss wiped the sweat from his forehead and comforted himself, but when he looked up, it happened that a group of light horsemen had arrived, and they all had swords on them.

Swordsman!

The boss's heart lit up. There is no other reason. Just because these people are swordsmen. From years of business experience and long-term perspective, it is beneficial to make friends with more swordsmen. Just like the twenty swordsmen invited today, if you don't meet a swordsman who has intersected with you. I'm afraid I can't hire myself even if I have money. I don't know what's going on. Recently, there has been a great shortage of swordsmen, and even the team of adventurers, which has always been known for their high prices, has almost disappeared.

"A few friends, please excuse me here. I don't know if you are going to Fenghua City from this city, are you going to Fenghua City?" The smile on the boss's face was very enthusiastic, and he spoke very well, of course, to avoid misunderstanding.

"Yes. Lu Ming said lightly: "What's the matter with you?"

"That's great. Hearing the other party's indifferent voice, the boss did not flinch, and then said enthusiastically: "That's the case, my name is Lan Fengyu, I do some leather business, and I will go to Fenghua City this time, but my caravan is a little bigger, and there is a lack of swordsmen like you, I don't know if a few can make a cameo appearance as a swordsman and help me escort the dart to transport the goods, and the price is easy to say." ”

The Sword Saint of Destruction and the old sword master glanced at each other, this kind of thing has never been experienced before, I didn't expect someone to hire these people today, the other party's eyesight is good!

Feeling the look in the eyes of the second elder, Lu Ming was speechless in his heart, it seems that the second elder must have been named a genius when he was young, and he should have never done such a thing. He nodded appropriately and said, "Yes." ”

"It's wonderful. Lan Fengyu patted his hands together a few times, and said: "In this way, it will take nearly two days to go to Fenghua City, there are six of you in total, and the one-way escort fee is a total of six thousand taels, what do you think? ”

"Okay. Lu Ming smiled indifferently, although this money was nothing to him, but he didn't care about bargaining, the other party seemed to be really here to make friends, after all, this road has always been peaceful, and the deterrent power of twenty swordsmen is enough.

"Very good, everyone, wait a minute, and my men will be ready to set the carriage in order. Lan Fengyu was just about to leave, turned around and said: "Of course, you have absolute freedom, just don't be too far away from the convoy, and we can have a good chat when we have time." ”

Lu Ming nodded casually, anyway, he was going to Fenghua City, since the second elder was very interested, it would be good to be a swordsman once, and Qing'er and Ouyang Luo were also very eager to try and fight with swords, after all, no one had ever been a swordsman.

Lan Fengyu smiled and busied himself, the previous city patrols were very ruthless, and when they were inspected, they directly tore up a lot of tarpaulins covering leather goods with brute force, and at this time they had to cover it again, after all, after the fur was made, they were not afraid of heat, but afraid of rain and fog.

The swordsman group not far away was also a little unhappy when they saw that Boss Lan had hired such a team of people, which seemed to be a side indication that their strength was not good!

The sturdy swordsman at the head looked at Lu Ming's team very seriously, but the corners of his mouth were filled with a sneer, and he said in a low voice with his subordinates: "Look at it, who are these people? The old one has become an old man, and the small one is still a yellow-haired girl, can such a team escort darts to transport goods? It is still worth six thousand taels? It is a lot to give six hundred taels." ”

"Hahaha......" The swordsmen let out a burst of unbridled laughter, and then said in a low voice: "Yes, boss, they just rely on us to be here, otherwise a wind wolf will jump out and scare them away, I just don't know if that little girl will be scared and cry!"

"Hahaha......"

The other swordsmen laughed again, Long Lin's face turned blue, my dignified two-bladed great swordsman, what kind of swordsman is he doing now? Now he is still being ridiculed by these people like this......

The more Long Lin thought about it, the more angry he became, and he wanted to step forward to teach them a lesson, but when he saw that the master of the Sword Destruction looked at him calmly, Long Lin stopped, if the master didn't let him go, then he wouldn't go, anyway, this account may be counted directly on Lu Ming's head one day, when did you, a loser, care about this money?

Qing'er was also uncomfortable by those people talking and laughing loudly, this very uncomfortable way of talking, but when she glanced at the young master beside her, she was suddenly refreshed, and even the laughter of those people couldn't enter her ears again. Qing'er's persistence is only for the young master.

"Experiencing life is a compulsory course that no swordsman can do. The Sword Saint of Destruction stroked his beard and said very deeply: "Brother Ji and I were too obsessed with the Sword Realm when we were young, and there are many things that we haven't experienced in person, this is the regret in life, this time I am lucky, I am playing in the mountains and rivers, experiencing the life of ordinary people, and I have money to take, why not?"

Qing'er pouted disapprerovitically: "Master, you love money too much, you see how good my young master is, and he never cares about how much money he has." ”

"Hehe... Of course, we mainly want to experience life!" The Sword Saint of Destruction laughed dryly, who could compare to Lu Ming, a little loser, In his eyes, the difference between six thousand taels and sixty thousand taels was just a number, and he must not even look at it. However, the other party is willing to use six thousand taels to hire his own people, and the price is fair compared to the swordsman.

In this way, Lu Ming and others escorted the goods all the way to Fenghua City, the boss was also in a hurry, and the leather goods were not very heavy, so the speed of the rush was not slow, at least they could arrive at the registration location half a day in advance.

Time passed little by little, it was already more than a day, and it was calculated that there would be half a day to rush to Fenghua City, this road was very peaceful, but the boss Lan Fengyu did not regret spending money to hire people, during which he took the initiative to come over and chat enthusiastically a few times, Shannan Haibei, customs and customs, he was proficient, the old sword master and the Sword Saint of Destruction had a good chat with him, and it could be seen that he was indeed walking.

Lu Ming also listened to it, but there was no legend about the treasure of the sword, so she was not interested, Qing'er was even more interested in the young master, so she was almost glued to Lu Ming's side all the way, and asked a lot of knowledge about swordsmanship to fill the loopholes in her sword realm, after all, the master destroyed the sword saint more often, just to see how he did, and then he would guide, so he mastered it faster, but his own experience was too little, and many places were blank.

The young master is different, he will teach himself by hand. Qing'er thought that she could follow the young master and learn more, and she was secretly happy all the way.

Looking at Qing'er who showed a smirk on her face from time to time, Lu Ming smiled, everything she has learned now is almost limited to paper, she has never experienced a real battle at all, and her experience in fighting is almost zero, so let her participate in the trial, I really don't worry, teaching a few things that can save her life at critical moments is the key.

Although the Sword Hall is a very strict organization, and the rules are even stricter, after all, the rules are dead, and cheaters are inevitable, and it seems that if you have time, you have to fight her a few times in person.

Lu Ming is a killer, and his grasp of human nature is particularly clear, in terms of the Sword Venerable Tomb and unique resource materials, there will definitely be people who have a glimmer of hope to participate, even if it is cheating.

Is murder considered ferocious? Some things are really not as good as murder, as a killer, Lu Ming has seen too much of the dark side of human nature.

At this time, Lu Ming found that the number of pedestrians on the road began to gradually increase, there were a few sword students wearing other sword academy costumes, and there were also those who wanted to exchange their own specialties for silver, and it seemed that they had now reached the range where Fenghua City was located.
