192 Knowledge changes destiny
Horse-drawn carriages gradually drove into the transition zone between the plains and the forest, and the sparse trees dotted the vast fields, and the traces of human activity were gradually replaced by the original scenery.
"Well, thank you for your escort along the way," Allegri laughed, "and that's the end of your career as an actor." ”
"Is that the end of it?" Grande smacked his lips a little unsatisfactorily, "I still have a lot of acting skills to show." ”
"Forget it," Allegri said helplessly, "if I hold their young proprietors hostage like this, I will really offend the top merchant group of Torm." ”
"I'll suppress the kidnapping when I go back, but you still have to be careful of the Matro family," Grande said, "I'll go over and preside over the opening of the transportation line over there on the Liujin Trade Road soon." In recent days, I have been handling the membership system you mentioned, which has greatly improved my status within the business group, and I really want to thank you for your advice. ”
"Nothing," Allegri waved at him, "I'll see you then." ”
"Hmm. Grand nodded, watched the carriage continue into the sparse forest, and then shook his head and walked back. Kuyt and his cavalry had been far behind, and it should have been not far away.
"This ...... Alibaba Master?" Seeing Grande let go like this, Fletcher couldn't help but feel itchy in his heart, and asked hesitantly.
"What?" Allegri glanced at him.
"Master, you've arrived at your destination...... You let him go...... Look at me?" Fletcher pointed at Grand, and then at himself.
"You?" Allegri asked, turning his head, "you want me to let you go, too?"
"Uh-huh!" Fletcher nodded in anticipation.
"But don't you think it......" Allegri said slowly, his face a little inexplicable, "don't you think you know a lot of secrets that you shouldn't know?"
"Secret?" Fletcher thought for a moment, and his face changed dramatically. "But I didn't mean to." ”
"I didn't say you did it on purpose...... Allegri chuckled, "Forget it, you have also worked hard along the way, and you can go now." ”
"What? Master Xie Lu, "Joy descends from the sky." As soon as the elated Fletcher stepped out of the carriage, he suddenly came to his senses, turned around and hesitated, "Master, what ......is it?" The warm sensation in his lower abdomen was clearly discerning, and he would not forget what Allegri had injected into his body, and he might explode and die at any point, it was indescribably miserable.
"What are you talking about?" Allegri shook his head blankly, "I don't know. ”
What bastard!!! But there was nothing he could do, he stood there with a cloudy face, hesitated for a long time, and finally returned to the carriage honestly with his head down.
"What's the matter? I promised to let you go?" asked Allegri, pretending to be puzzled.
"I'm not leaving. Fletcher shook his head sullenly.
"What are you doing?" Allegri asked, unaware, "didn't you just want to leave?"
"I think there's a pretty good future with you," Fletcher said with a look of sincerity. The cruel life has forced a simple middle-aged man into an acting school.
The carriage arrived at the intended meeting point, and Allegri glanced around his surroundings. Frowning.
Evelola: Haven't they arrived yet?
"Lord Allegri," Allegri felt a flower in front of him, and suddenly an elven sentry appeared in the woods. She must have used a special camouflage technique, as if she had completely blended in with her surroundings, and she walked over in a few steps and whispered. "Your Highness waited for a while and didn't see your Excellency coming, and for fear of delaying the time, he first rushed to the 'Clear Spring' with Mr. Illo for treatment, and sent me to stay here to guide your Excellency to catch up. ”
Allegri nodded and stepped out of the carriage. Fletcher picked up the package. He followed behind, with a dejected face.
"This way, sir. The elven sentry stretched out his hand to lead the way, and the trees and foliage of the forest were so intertwined that neither the carriage nor the horses could pass smoothly, so the three of them had to move forward on foot. Within two steps, Allegri suddenly stopped, as if thinking of something. He turned around, flicked his fingers slightly, and the reins and wheels of the two horses pulling the cart were instantly burned, and the two horses kicked their hooves in place in a little daze, and only after a moment did they react, and ran towards the sparse forest with a happy neigh.
Allegri flicked his fingers again, and the carriage suddenly burned, he nodded with satisfaction, turned around, and commanded lightly, "Okay, let's go." ”
The elven sentry who led them the way was a young elven girl with the usual delicate appearance of elves. She didn't look very old, but Allegri couldn't guess her age, as elves lived much longer than humans. Maybe an elf girl who looks like she is twenty years old can be your grandmother at her actual age, and this situation is also possible.
"What do you call it?" Allegri asked, he couldn't keep shouting and shouting.
"You can call me Fia, my lord. The elven sentry replied softly, turning her head to continue leading the way, apparently her introverted personality and a bit of a lagging for words.
"So, Fia, how many days will it take us to get to the 'Clear Spring'?" Allegri asked.
"Your Highness Ephlora, they will only arrive in two or three days," Fia whispered, walking lightly among the trees, glancing at Allegri, "but we don't need to be in such a hurry, and your legs and feet are not very dexterous, my lord, it may take twice as long." ”
"You say...... I don't have very good legs?" Allegri was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but snort, "I'm always a lot more agile than that guy, right?" Next to him, Fletcher was walking crookedly through the woods, and his appearance was quite unbearable, and when he heard Allegri's words, he could only shake his head helplessly, but he didn't dare to resist.
"This ......" Fei Ya hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to tell the truth, "My lord, although this gentleman looks a little ugly, if you bring it up, it is one of the most suitable ways to walk in the woods, but it is much faster than you. ”
Sure enough, there were still people who knew the goods, and Fletcher nodded with relief on his face. Allegri was dumbfounded, and after a long time, he asked Fletcher, "Is your business still in the forest?"
"Not really," Fletcher shook his head, smiling, "but Yiduo doesn't weigh down." ”
"I'm underestimating you," Allegri asked, looking impressed, "by the way, how much do you know about things like intelligence gathering and scouting." ”
"I know a little bit about intelligence, I know a little bit about it," Fletcher replied with a nod of his head, "after all, the most important job for a hunter is intelligence gathering, and only when he has collected enough accurate and sufficient information can he make a successful hunt plan." ”
"Yes, very good," Allegri patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "You're a talent, so mix with me in the future." ”
"Huh?" Fletcher was stunned, not knowing how to answer.
"A monthly salary of fifty gold coins, including food and accommodation, and a luxury wooden house, cool in winter and warm in summer, very valuable......" Allegri smiled and tempted.
He was talking and laughing here, and his steps slowed down involuntarily, and the elven sentry Fiya who led the way hesitated for a moment, and finally coughed softly and interjected,
"Your Excellency...... When I was counting the time, I didn't expect one thing......"
"Think about it," Allegri turned his head around after dropping the last sentence, "what's the matter, Fia?"
"That's your lordship...... If...... If you keep talking like this, my lord, it will take us more time to reach the 'clear spring'. ”
"Forehead ......"
After the destruction of the "Elven Homeland", the "Moon Song Forest" located at the southwestern tip of the continent became the last treasure of the elves.
Allegri, under the guidance of the elf Fia, is setting foot in this mysterious and beautiful area for the first time. The evergreen trees are beautiful in all seasons, the texture is smooth, each one is tens of meters high, the canopy is swollen and connected, and the branches and leaves are rich, just like the temple of trees on the turquoise dome, but it does not show the slightest gloom.
"It's a fellow elven settlement, and it's a completely different feeling from the Whispering Forest," Allegri praised, "and there's a sense of tranquility and comfort everywhere." ”
"The Whispering Forest is the temporary habitat of the Highland Elves, but the Lowland Elves have been working hard in the Moon Song Forest for thousands of years," the difference was not the Elf Fia, but the Fletcher next to it, "This is only the edge of the Moon Song Forest, I heard that after entering the core area of the forest, every plant there was planted by the elves themselves, carefully cultivated and grown, and they have an inexplicable connection with the elves, and even have a certain spirituality." ”
"This gentleman is right," Fia glanced at Fletcher and nodded with some surprise, "we are already connected to this forest by blood. ”
"You know a lot about the Moonsong Forest?" Allegri was even more surprised, turning to look at Fletcher.
"I know a little bit," Fletcher explained with a smile, "after all, it's not very far from the Moon Song Forest, and I've seen these records, and I'm thinking about when I can use them, so I'll write them down." ”
"Tsk," Allegri circled around Fletcher twice, looking at him again, "where did you see this material?"
"This ......" Fletcher was a little hairy by him, and said, "When I don't usually have a task, I like to collect some ancient books and read books......
"Talent! What a talent!" Allegri patted Fletcher on the shoulder, "Knowledge changes fate, reading determines the future, you are a person, I want to decide...... How about doubling your monthly salary?......"
He couldn't stop talking here, Fiya stopped and waited for a while, and finally couldn't help but interject,
"Your Excellency...... If you do this again, we won't be able to reach it for ten days and half a month......" (To be continued......
