Chapter 32: Trouble Finding Yourself at the Door
"Ladies and gentlemen, the destination of our caravan has arrived, you are welcome to take the carriage of this chamber of commerce, friends who need to continue traveling, please tell us where you need to go, this chamber of commerce will try its best to arrange for you. β
Ouyang Yu carried a travel bag and carried Xia Na, and squatted on her right shoulder and walked out of the carriage, this city is the city of Kunstin in Karel County in Higra, where she needs to change to a caravan that continues south.
The transportation of cities on the mainland and the surrounding villages and towns is generally responsible for the carriages sent by the local mercenary group, which will charge a certain fee but not much, and the long-distance travel and other going out will depend on the carriage of the chamber of commerce between the cities, and the carriage will generally have one or two manned carriages for the use of passengers, and the overnight tent will also be responsible for the food on the road, but the cost will be relatively high, depending on the distance of the distance to charge a price between two and seven silver coins.
Queenstin City is a small city with a population of just over 10,000, the city lord is Baron Calus, compared with Carrington City in the extreme north, it is still autumn here, Ouyang Yu took off his thick winter clothes, put on a floral dress, and put on a leather high-waisted jacket outside to walk around the city, found a hotel that looked good and lived in, the carriage that had been walking for a whole week made her tired, the food provided by the caravan was not only unpalatable, but also far from enough in terms of her amount of food, she was about to vomit after eating the jerky, she planned to rest for two days, and then eat a few more beautiful mealsγ
"Jingle clang, jingle clang. Ouyang Yu took a knife and fork and struggled to eliminate the table full of food on the table in front of her, and at her feet, Qiuqiu was also gulping down the roasted fragrant cod, a plate the size of half a table, there were more than a dozen high, and the guests and waiters in the hotel restaurant were all stunned looking at the one man and one beast who were eating.
"Wow......" Feeling that Xiao Xiana was left out in the cold, she cried loudly, Ouyang Yu hurriedly swallowed the things in her mouth, and held Xiao Xiana in her arms and shook her left and right.
"Well, little Nana doesn't cry, doesn't cry. Ouyang Yu held the crying little thing in his left hand, picked up the wooden milk bottle that was specially made for people to sit on with his right hand, poured the milk that had already been warmed into it, and then tightened the cap of the bottle and fed the milk skillfully.
"Alas....... Seeing this scene, many young men and middle-aged people sighed with a tangled feeling of inexplicable pain in their hearts, "A tender cabbage that was hiding from Lu was actually arched by the pig beast so early, if you know who Lu Dao is, you must burn him!" Many young men secretly swore in their hearts.
For the eyes of others, Ouyang Yu has practiced, misunderstanding is misunderstanding, it is impossible to meet a person and explain it to others, since this is the case, it is better not to explain, and there are a lot fewer wild bees and butterflies that are attracted, but there are also a lot more people with ulterior motives.
A little girl who looks like she is only thirteen or fourteen years old is single and has a baby who has just been a full moon, dressed ordinarily, either as a little widow or as a special professional, by the way, girls on the mainland can get married at the age of twelve or thirteen, and boys are fifteen years old, so some ill-intentioned people posted it, Ouyang Yu ignored this kind of person, most people will consciously leave after touching the nail, and a few will scold two sentences, Ouyang Yu just didn't hear it.
The most outrageous thing is that a forty-year-old chamber of commerce steward actually proposed to wrap / support her at the price of ten silver coins per month in front of many people, and said a lot of ugly words, Ouyang Yu, who was angry and about to smoke, directly shot a magic magic arrow, and wiped it under the old brother of the steward, so frightened that the steward's shit and urine ran away, if it wasn't for restraining himself and not wanting to kill casually, Ouyang Yu really wanted to kill him.
After feeding the little things to put her to sleep, Ouyang Yu put her away before starting to eat again, and after a full meal, Ouyang Yu saw that it was still early in the sky outside, so she decided to go out for a walk, and she liked to buy some local specialty food whenever she went, which has become something she must do everywhere she goes.

"Ah...... "Phillips Wright asked Martin Calus, walking down the commercial street of Queenstin, to Martin Calus.
Phillips Wright is the second son of the Marquis of Higralet, because he made a mistake in the royal capital of Higra and was forced by his father to come here to avoid it, Martin Calus is the eldest son of the lord of the city, Viscount Calus, who attached great importance to the visit of his boss's son, so he arranged for Martin to follow Phillips every day, and also instructed him to try his best to meet any requests of the second son of the Marquis.
Martin flattered, "Master Phillips, why don't you hold another dance party tonight, the young girls in this city are looking forward to seeing your superb dancing again." β
Phillips shook his hand and said with a boring face: "It's boring, the dance party in the countryside is too boring, those hillbillies (referring to the local nobles) and the daughters of merchants don't have a few good-looking, the only ones that are pleasing to the eye, the two who tell me about marriage every day in the past two days, it's very annoying, don't think that you will marry them after sleeping with this young master a few times, even if this young master wants to marry the princess of the kingdom or the daughter of the duke's family, they don't even think about it." β
"That's it, Young Master Phillips, you have such a noble status, how can those hillbilly daughters be worthy of you, why don't you go hunting tomorrow?"
"Don't go, don't go, that's too tired, and the beasts here are too fierce, what if I hurt Young Master Ben?"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's that I didn't think it through. β
"Well, Martin didn't think there was such a beautiful little girl in your town, why didn't you introduce it to me, could it be your lover?" said Phillips, pointing to a girl who was shopping at a stall.
Martin looked in the direction Phillips pointed, what a beautiful little girl, compared to this little girl, all the so-called beauties who had attended the ball the other day were all rubbish.
"I didn't know that there was such a beautiful girl in Ludao City, it shouldn't be a local nobleman or a merchant, it was probably a commoner or a foreigner, Master Phillips, let's go over and take a look." β
"Good. β
The two of them walked briskly towards the girl.
"Auntie, how do you sell this Zhu Zhu fruit?" asked Ouyang Yu while standing next to a fruit stall.
The aunt who sold fruit saw a customer coming to the door and said enthusiastically: "Two coppers for one, five coppers for three, ten coppers for seven, how many do the little girl want?"
Unexpectedly, this aunt is very good at business, Ouyang Yu smiled and said that when he was about to pay for seven, someone behind him said: "Here is a silver coin, I paid for this young lady, and I don't need to look for the rest, young master, I have never used such a thing as copper." β
Ouyang Yu turned around and looked back, and two young men who were gorgeously dressed and handsome were standing behind her, these two were Phillips and Martin.
Phillips pretended to be polite and asked Ouyang Yu: "Hello this young lady, I am the son of the Marquis Wright, Minister of the Interior of Higra, Phillips Wright, may I ask what is your name, miss?"
Phillips's initial wealth and opening his mouth showed his status as a nobleman, and most of the commoner women in the previous experience of hunting for beauty were quickly able to get it.
It's a pity that he met Ouyang Yu today, and he rolled his eyes in his heart, Ouyang Yu said: "Vidnina, it's nice to meet you, see you again." "I want to leave.
Phillips stretched out his hands to stop her and said with a hippie smile: "Don't leave so quickly, the ancestor once said that meeting is fate, this young master and young lady meet here today is a great fate, young master this wants to invite young lady you to go to the city lord's mansion to drink a cup of tea that has been very popular recently? That is the best drink that ordinary little nobles can't afford to drink." β
In the past two years, a kind of leaf called tea is very popular among the nobles of various countries, the drink brewed with this leaf is fragrant, it is refreshing to drink, it is very sought after by the nobles, the tea is very expensive, one or two tea leaves cost a gold coin, but it still can't stop the consumption enthusiasm of the nobles, and the output of tea is very small, every time it is sold through auction, as for who made the tea? and who took it out for auction is still a mystery.
Phillips, who thought that this would be successful, instantly stiffened after hearing Ouyang Yu's answer, "I'm sorry, I have no interest, and I don't have time, I still have to buy Boolean milk for my daughter." β
Phillips asked incredulously, "This is not your sister, is this your daughter?"
"Yes, that's right. "Little Shana is a good shield at some point.
"Hell, I thought it was an original and I thought it was a little" Phillips cursed, and he was not interested in pretending to be a gentleman anymore, the smile on his face turned hideous, and he said loudly: "Arrest her and go back to the City Lord's Mansion!" β
As the son of the Marquis, how could he go out without an escort, and Viscount Calus would not let him go out alone, Phillips's own guards and the guards arranged by Calus were a total of more than a dozen people, all dressed as adventurers and mixed in the crowd to protect Phillips and Martin, hearing Phillips's order, the two guards walked out of the crowd and blocked Ouyang Yu's body, stretching out their hands to grab her.
Ouyang Yu deftly dodged the guards and sneered: "If you don't want to go, you will forcibly arrest people, are all nobles this virtue?"
"Shut up, untouchables, the glory of nobility is not something that people like you can tarnish, you two are such a piece of waste, you can't even catch a little bitch/son, what use do I want from you!"
The two guards felt that their faces were gloomy when they were scolded, and they sped up and pounced on Ouyang Yu.
Ouyang Yu held Xiao Xiana in his left hand, bent down to avoid the hands grabbed by a guard, and his seemingly white and slender right hand punched the guard's stomach, and the guard who was hit couldn't help but bend down because of the pain, Ouyang Yu took the opportunity to change his right hand from a fist to a palm, and hit him heavily in the chin, and the guard immediately fainted.
Another guard pounced on Ouyang Yu from behind and wanted to hug Ouyang Yu, Ouyang Yu touched the ground with his left foot, dodged from the top of the guard's head with his head and feet, and at the same time slashed his right hand into a knife on the artery on the side of the guard's neck, poof, and fainted to the ground like his companion.
"That's amazing!" was what everyone in the neighborhood thought, and Phillips shouted in exasperation, "What are you still watching?
The remaining twelve guards came out of the crowd, separated, and rushed at the same time from different directions.
Ouyang Yu was not in a hurry, and quickly rushed to one person while the guards had not yet closed up, giving full play to his advantages of being small and flexible, and walking among the twelve guards like a dancing butterfly, using his hands and feet at the same time, inserting his eyes, kicking the second child, stepped on her toes and aimed at all kinds of key points, and because of the large number of people and Ouyang Yu's flexible positioning, the guards would not fight with her more than two people at a time, and they didn't cooperate and were afraid of hurting their own people, so they were soon all knocked to the ground by Ouyang Yu, either covering their eyes or the second child lying on the ground and humming.
After knocking down the dog's legs, Ouyang Yu turned his head to look at Phillips with a smile, Phillips took two steps back in fear and shouted, "Master! Master Dacro, aren't you ready to make a move?"
