Chapter 4 Encounter with a thief on the road
The low and dilapidated city wall, the two guards wearing rusty half-body steel armor, lazily leaning against the city gate, this is Ouyang Yu's first impression of Ryan Town.
After paying a copper entrance fee, Ouyang Yu walked into this town, the town is not big, and there are not many pedestrians on the street, after asking people to come to the only hotel in the town to stay, Ouyang Yu has nothing to do and wanders around the town with a curious attitude.
It took more than an hour for the town to be walked around, during which Ouyang Yu bought some dried meat and wine that were easy to store, and bought a few sets of joyful clothes, all of which were civilian clothes that were conducive to activities, and the kind of costumes worn by nobles could not be bought here, and Ouyang Yu did not like them.
Spent a little money in a tavern, and asked someone about the nearest city to the town, which is two days away, and the largest city on the border, Ouyang Yu decided not to stay in Ryan Town and set off for Gehe City tomorrow.
The traffic in the Weigel empire is not bad, after Makan the Great came to power, he vigorously developed transportation, built a lot of main roads between major cities, strengthened the rule of the empire and the circulation of materials, and built smooth roads between small towns and cities, small towns and small towns, although not as good as the main roads but relatively smooth, and cities and towns are also equipped with public carriages, on the one hand, the exchange of people and goods, the public carriage between the town of Lane and the city of Lane and the city of Lane once every ten days, starting from the city of Singer and the city of Lane, rest for one night in the town of Lane, and then load the people back the next day, fortunately the carriage has arrived in the town of Lane today, Ouyang Yu can leave in this carriage tomorrow.
When she left the tavern and was about to return to the hotel, she found a blacksmith shop and bought a three-finger-wide and one-meter-long broadsword for two silver coins in case she needed it, and the dagger was hidden behind her waist.
When he returned to the hotel, it was dinner time, and he spent 10 copper to ask for a plate of barbecue with vegetable soup, and after eating a full meal with a glass of ale, Ouyang Yu went to bed.
Early the next morning, Ouyang Yu came to the East City Gate, bought a ticket with 45 coppers, and boarded the carriage to Gehe Nacheng.
Four old horses pulled a wooden carriage more than ten meters long and about two meters wide, and the seats on the car were horizontal. Five farmers, a small couple visiting relatives, and a well-dressed mother and daughter, the mother looks about a little more than 30, very beautiful, there is a tear mole under the left eye, the figure is very convex and backward is very charming, the skin is white and tender, the daughter is thirteen or fourteen years old is also a little beauty, it should have inherited a beautiful appearance from her mother, a pale pink dress made of muslin and a lovely smile, giving people a cordial feeling, although Ouyang Yu now has no tools to commit the crime, it does not prevent him from appreciating beautiful things, his eyes keep drifting over the mother and daughter, the whole carriage plus Ouyang Yu and the coachman who drove the car sat a total of thirteen people。
The first day was uneventful, everyone spent the night in the car, and the next day there was an accident not long after departure.
Brian, one of the guards who accompanied the car, looked at the tree trunks lying horizontally in the middle of the road and knew that trouble was coming, and he said to Kent, another guard who was traveling with him, "Be careful, we're being targeted by bandits." After saying that, the two of them drew the long swords on their waists, and one of them was on guard.
It didn't take long for a group of bandits to swagger out of the woods by the side of the road, this group of bandits was only eight in number, but they all had a fierce look in their eyes, wearing leather armor with sword marks and blood stains, and came to the carriage not far from the long sword with a gap.
One of the eight men in the best leather armor said loudly: "Robbery! Hand over your coins and valuable things! Honestly hand over one of you, I can spare one of you, otherwise you will be killed!" After saying that, Luck Douqi took the sword and slashed fiercely on the ground, and the long sword with orange fighting spirit cut a deep groove on the ground.
"Second-level warrior?!" Brian's heart sank to the bottom at once, when he met a second-level warrior, he and Kent would not be opponents when they joined forces, not to mention that there were seven people on the other side, and there was no chance of victory at all.
Brian thought for a moment and said, "We can't beat you, we can hand over all our belongings to you, but you must ensure our personal safety, otherwise we will fight you to the death." ”
"Hey...... As long as you hand over all your belongings, I will guarantee your lives. The bandit boss said.
Brian sighed and Kent threw his sword to the ground, turned to the passengers in the car and shouted, "Come down, everyone, give them your belongings, they shouldn't hurt us." ”
The people in the car were already trembling with fear, and after hearing Brian's words, they had to get out of the car and wait in a row for the bandits to come and take their belongings.
The bandit boss called two of his men over, one of the thieves got into the car and looked for items that might be hidden, and the other walked up to the passengers with a large bag and put their things in one by one.
The goods brought by the small businessman, the long swords of the two guards, the silver necklace of the little couple's wife, the dozens of coppers of the five farmers, the rings of the mother and daughter and other belongings were all snatched away one by one, when it was Ouyang Yu's turn, thinking that more things are better than less, she took out a dozen coppers and threw them into the pocket of the bandit, but the thief didn't say anything, after all, Ouyang Yu's current age is there, how much money can a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl have, and she is still wearing a set of clothes made of coarse cloth, except that she is very beautiful and no different from other civilian girls。
The bandit boss looked at the pockets his subordinates showed him and nodded with satisfaction, just when everyone thought that the bandits would leave immediately, the bandit boss pointed to the mother and daughter and shouted, "Take these four women away too!" This includes Ouyang Yu.
Brian hurriedly shouted, "You don't mean what you say, didn't you say that you only robbed property?"
"Haha......ha Isn't a woman a property? It's a lot of money to sell it to a slave trader after Lao Tzu has played, especially the mother and daughter and the little girl are the best!" The little girl was referring to Ouyang Yu.
The little wife and mother and daughter suddenly felt desperate, and Brian shouted again unwillingly: "Can you let them go?" How much money do you want, I can give it to you on behalf of the Song and Nacheng Twin Sword Mercenary Group! As long as you can let them go, I can give you ten, not twenty silver coins! Otherwise, you will wait for the revenge of our Twin Sword Mercenary Group!"
"Don't use the double sword mercenary group to press me, Lao Tzu will leave this ghost place after making this vote, I see how you come to me!
"Yes, boss!" the four thieves ran towards Ouyang Yu and the others.
Ouyang Yu had a murderous intent in his heart, if it was just a robbery, it would be okay, anyway, most of his things were in the hero's space backpack, no one knew what to do, there was only a small burden and a dagger hidden in the clothes, and there was only a set of clothes and a dozen coppers in the baggage, but now these thieves who don't know whether to live or die actually hit their bad intentions on themselves, it is really unforgivable, since becoming a hero and learning magic and possessing undead creatures, her temper and self-confidence have become bigger and bigger, not that she will be angry at people casually, Ouyang Yu's own personality is very easy-going and will not lose her temper indiscriminately, but with the dignity of some strong people, those who offend themselves must be punished.
"You can't snatch my wife......!" the young husband stood in front of his wife, but was slashed to the ground by a cruel bandit.
"Mom...... Mother......" The little girl cried and held her mother's hand tightly, and the beautiful mother could only hold back her daughter's hand and walk step by step towards the abyss of fate under the compulsion of the two bandits.
Ouyang Yu was also dragged by a bandit to the bandit team, there were many people on the other side, and there was also a second-level warrior, her undead creatures didn't want to be seen by others, it was impossible to kill all of them, killing innocent people Ouyang Yu couldn't do it, so he had to wait for the opportunity.
