Chapter 48: Attacked
On the side of the road, Zhang Yun and the three of them gathered around an eye-catching iron pot, holding a bowl in their hands and scooping up the food in the pot with chopsticks.
"It tastes so good!" Zhang Yun said after taking a slow sip of soup.
"Aren't you too spicy?" Paimon asked in surprise as he looked at the red soup base.
"I think it's okay!"
Ying is making fish hot pot today, and the base is made of Jueyun pepper, which has a slightly spicy taste.
The fish is made of sea kings, and then it is supplemented with vegetables such as green vegetables and radishes, and the taste is really good.
"Speaking of which, it's really safe on the road today, and I haven't met any hilichurls." Paimon said.
"Wouldn't it be safe to be safe?" Ying said speechlessly.
"I didn't mean that, I just wanted to sigh, it's rare to encounter such an easy commission."
"That's right." Ying Shen said sympathetically.
In the past, most of the time, trust equaled trouble, and in order to solve trouble, nine times out of ten, there was a battle.
It is indeed rare to see such a relaxed situation as today.
Moreover, it won't be long before they reach Dawn Winery, where there are members of the Knights of Favonius in many places, and there will be fewer dangers on the way.
Zhang Yun smiled and said, "After all, you are the protagonist, even if you don't look for trouble, trouble will come to you." ”
"I don't want to be the protagonist, I just want to find my brother as soon as possible." Ying said depressedly.
"Ying, don't worry, I will definitely help you find your brother." Paimon patted his chest and said confidently.
"I'm sure you'll find it, too." Zhang Yun also said.
Although Mi Huoyou is very fond of sending knives, since he has come to this world, no matter what the future is, he will do his best to change for the better.
And the Great Cishu King is Zhang Yun's attempt!
For he did not want this gentle god to perish.
……
After eating, they continued their journey towards Dawn Winery.
However, it seems that due to the influence of Paimon's crow's beak, the rest of their journey will not be so easy.
It didn't take long for them to encounter a group of hilichurls blocking the road, and in the middle of the road, there were a lot of goods scattered, and even a few people were lying in pools of blood, not knowing if they were alive or not.
As far as the eye can see, there are seven ordinary hilichurls, three hilichurl archers, one hilichurl shaman, and one hilichurl thug.
Among the ordinary hilichurls, there were four or five ordinary people squatting, one of whom was gorgeously dressed and seemed to be the owner of the team.
When those people saw Zhang Yun's vehicle, they first shouted for help, but when they saw that there were only a man, a woman and a pet who got out of the car, they hurriedly shouted:
"Run, there's a monster here!"
"Find someone from the Knights and come to us!"
"Run!"
“……”
Their shouts didn't help, though, as Ying drew her sword and galloped toward the hilichurls.
"Has Ying always been so brave?"
"Of course, Ying Chao Yong!" Paimon said proudly, "She's not even afraid of the Wind Demon Dragon, she's just a few hilichurls, and she doesn't know how many of them have been killed." ”
"You didn't do this, what are you proud of as a person whose combat strength is only one-fifth of a wild boar?" Zhang Yun complained.
"Hmph, Ying and I are best friends, of course I can be proud." Paimon said, crossing his waist.
Zhang Yun rolled his eyes, hurriedly walked in front of the few people who fell to the ground, felt his breathing, and felt his pulse......
"How? Still alive? Paimon asked.
Zhang Yun shook his head, "There is no heartbeat anymore, but it can be expected, after all, the amount of bleeding is so large, it is a miracle to survive." ”
"Wait...... Zhang Yun, the person over there seems to have moved. ”
Zhang Yun hurriedly heard the sound, only to see a man's fingers suddenly move not far away, he hurriedly walked over and put his finger in front of the other party's nose.
"And breathing." After Zhang Yun finished speaking, he took out a pack of bandages from the dimensional core, as well as a medical kit, and began to stop the bleeding and disinfect the other party.
Although he is not very good at first aid, he can still disinfect and stop bleeding, but the bandage is a little ugly...... But as long as people can live, it doesn't matter if they look good or not.
"It's not a question of whether it's good or not, is it? Don't plug his nose! ”
Paimon, who went to check on the condition of several other people, came back and looked at the man who was wrapped in rice dumplings, and complained speechlessly.
"Huh? I didn't block it just now, huh? Zhang Yun turned his head and said, "Maybe I didn't tie it tightly just now and slipped down, it's okay, just do it all over again." ”
"I don't think it's necessary...... He only had a skin wound to his head, so there was no need for a bandage......" Paimon hurriedly stopped.
"Uh...... It seems to be too. Zhang Yun was stunned, and said with some embarrassment: "No way, it's the first time to do this kind of thing!" Inexperienced, inexperienced. ”
He hurriedly removed the bandage on the other party's head, and at the same time asked, "By the way, is there anyone else alive?" ”
"No, he's the only one alive." Paimon shook his head and said.
"Zhang Yun, Paimon, how are you doing here?" At this moment, Ying also finished dealing with all the hilichurls, and after saving those few people, she hurriedly led them over and asked.
"He's the only one alive." Zhang Yun said.
"Alas! It's all my fault, it's me who hurt them. Hearing this, the gorgeously dressed man suddenly burst into tears.
"What the hell is going on? When you trade across borders, don't you hire bodyguards? Ying asked, frowning.
Not to mention cross-border, even if they trade in Liyue, merchants will habitually hire a few bodyguards or adventurers to ensure stability on the road.
"Alas! The one you saved is the adventurer I hired. The man sighed deeply and briefly explained why.
The reason is very simple, he happened to hear that Mondstadt lacked medicinal herbs, so he smashed all his net worth into it, bought a large number of medicinal herbs, and prepared to go to Mondstadt to fight.
However, he usually does business in Liyue Harbor, let alone going abroad, and even Liyue Harbor rarely goes out, so he has little experience in organizing caravans, and has been cheated many times.
As a result, when he was about to leave, he found that he had no money to hire a bodyguard.
Not to mention whether there will be danger on the road, just say that if your employees know that there is no one to protect them on the road, they may all strike.
So he had to use the little money he had left to hire a "very famous" adventurer in the Adventurers' Guild.
In fact, he is a rookie adventurer who likes to brag.
Then tell your employees how powerful and powerful this person is, and how much money they spend......
And these employees have been working with him all the time, and they have never run caravans, and they naturally don't have much contact with adventurers, so they believe it.
The result can be imagined, the rookie adventurer plus the rookie caravan, encountered so many hilichurls, and more than half of the people who survived, the luck was already quite good.
