Chapter 759: 'Final Encounter'
The caravan marched along the rammed road at night, and was not delayed for a moment by accident all night.
When the sky broke, I stopped at a verdant lake close to the main road, where the water was crystal clear, and from time to time you could see the swimming fish.
Although it was a familiar trade route, and the place of rest had long been fixed, and I had been here dozens or hundreds of times, after resting for the night, waking up hastily putting on a half-worn and wear-resistant leather coat, poking her head out of a wagon at the front of the convoy, the young hostess with a stern face and a frosty face still commanded loudly: "Rest until the sun rises over the treetops, and set off at once."
The guards were changed, the handymen anointed the weapons, and fed the pack beasts...", and with her shouting, the hundreds of people in the entire caravan were busy in an orderly manner.
Zhang Lisheng jumped out of the carriage with the servants who acted in a hurry, looked at the lakes and mountains in the distance and stretched his waist, just as he felt that the people in the caravan were indifferent, it was difficult to talk to others, and he wanted to leave quietly, when he suddenly saw a young woman riding a snow-white unicorn in the distance, with a graceful bodybuilder hidden under heavy armor, galloping to his side.
Looking up and down at the god Wu Li, the female knight asked curiously, "Are you the traveler who stopped the convoy late last night?"
"Yes, Your Excellency, we met last night. Remembering the girl's kindness to herself, Zhang Lisheng stopped and replied gently.
"It was so dark last night that I couldn't see your face clearly, I thought you were very old, but I didn't expect you to be so young," the female knight said with an innocent smile: "I heard Captain Eureka say that you are a trek of thousands of miles." Is it true that a warrior who sharpens his will with his feet?"
"Yes, don't look at me young, but I actually have the power of hand-to-hand combat, otherwise I wouldn't be alone in the middle of the night. Zhang Lisheng replied casually with a move in his heart, and also smiled and asked: "What about you, are you a businesswoman, since you have a knighthood, your status in the business group must be very noble, right?"
"Of course, my father is Count Unocal, the president of the 'Black Feathered Goose Chamber of Commerce'. Although it is a court title with no territory. But it is also very noble in the land of red iron," the female knight yawned, raised her head proudly, and said, "By the way, the head of this large caravan is my sister. Eth Unocal.
This time, I just followed my sister to gain experience in business. But he will soon be able to lead a caravan on his own. ”
"Yes. Sounds remarkable, "Seeing the words and deeds of the female knight is simply a life that has not been tempered by too many things in the world." Zhang Lisheng, a wealthy merchant and noble girl who didn't know the sinister hearts of the people, was overjoyed, and his speech gradually became unscrupulous, "Then where is this caravan going?"
"Do you want to hitchhike all the way," replied the knight with a smile, "and it seems that it is not so true that you have traveled thousands of miles to hone your will."
We're going to the military camp of the Magic Rock Kingdom, on the outskirts of Big Malaysia Nobi, the capital of the Red Iron Country, and if you're going there, you can join the convoy, but you have to work to cover the fare. ”
"How could the military camp of the Demon Rock Kingdom be stationed on the outskirts of the capital of the Red Iron Kingdom, it sounds ridiculous," Zhang Lisheng ignored the girl's invitation for the time being, frowned and said, "No matter how close the relationship between the two countries is, it shouldn't be like this, right?"
"It seems that you are really from a far away place," the female knight explained for the first time on her always cheerful face, and her voice became more and more passionate, "Although our Red Iron Country has not been at war for nearly a year, it is also a frontier land bordering the Otherworld.
In the face of those terrible invaders who want to exterminate the 'Enamel World', the difference between countries is important, we are all Enamel people!"
"Is even such an innocent and naïve girl so hostile to invaders, a mature civilization is really difficult to conquer, think about me how lucky I am..."Looking at the girl's solemn face, Zhang Lisheng muttered to himself, spread his hands, and raised his voice: "Your words are awe-inspiring, Lady Snow."
Well, I've traveled thousands of miles, and every time I encounter a big city along the way, I always have to visit those famous warriors and swordsmen to fight, and since this caravan is going to the capital of the Red Iron Country, I really have plans to follow it.
But it is too insulting for a warrior to do hard labor like those servants, and can I use my own force or gold to pay for the carriage?", he said, pulling a fist-sized nugget of gold from his sleeve.
Gold is extremely scarce in the whole 'Great World', it is a natural expensive general equivalent, condescendingly seeing the gold nugget held in the palm of the hand by the gray-robed man in front of him, although it looks rough and unrefined, but the golden color obviously appears to be extremely pure and valuable, and Sino couldn't help but be stunned.
However, after all, the female knight came from a wealthy merchant family, and in an instant, she came back to her senses, leaned over and picked up the gold nugget and rubbed it a few times, turned it upside down, her expression changed, and said with a smile: "Use a piece of 'riverbed gold' weighing nearly five pounds and ninety percent of its fineness as a fare, it seems that you are the descendant of those great nobles who spend money like dirt;
Otherwise, it is really like what I said, I am an ascetic martial artist who does not skimp on wealth and travels thousands of miles, since this is the case, I will tell my sister and accept you.
Also, our 'Black Feather Goose Merchant Group' is very fair, since you paid for the 'first-rate' car, you should be taken care of first-class, I think my sister will definitely arrange a beast car for you to rest alone, of course, it is inevitable that the carriage will be full of goods. ”
Seeing the female knight whose tone and expression were very different from the innocent and naïve appearance just now, Zhang Lisheng's eyes couldn't help but widen, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Looking at his stunned face, Sino smiled strangely, leaned over, and said in a low voice, "Guest, if the descendants of the Unocal family are naïve fools, there will not be a smart person in the Red Iron Country. He then tightened the reins and turned to run towards the huge beast cart at the top of the convoy in the distance.
"It seems that it is very difficult to talk about it," looking at Snow's distant back, Zhang Lisheng muttered with a wry smile: "But since the news of my coming to the 'Enamel World' has been spread among Tina's pastors, so that she is prepared, it is not a bad idea to go directly to the Holy See to find her in the next step."
Anyway, there are no rules for apologizing, there is no certain rule for saving my girlfriend's heart, I can only improvise, and I hope that the cautious, gentle and approaching plan now can make Tina feel my sincere apologies.
But now that she is already the god of the 'Falong World', even if she is really willing to forgive me, it may not be so easy to abandon the believers and leave with me, maybe in the end, it will have to depend...", thinking of this, he lowered his head, his bitter smile slowly changed, his eyes revealed infinite hideousness, looking at the ground under his feet, his fists gradually clenched, and he made a crushing motion.
Whether it is a gentle means or the power of thunderous rage, Zhang Lisheng understands that in short, the most important thing is to get his girlfriend's understanding first, and in this matter, violence has no effect, so he secretly spontaneously will be ruthless, this great god who rules twenty-one 'worlds' and tens of billions of believers still loosened his fist in a nervous mood.
A few minutes later, when he heard Snow's loud greeting, he calmed down his mind without thinking about it meaninglessly, and strolled to the caravan with a beautiful appearance, but when he saw it for the first time, it must not be the delicate facial features that were noticed, but the shrewd and temperamental hostess.
"Mr. Li Sheng, I heard that you plan to join our caravan for the time being and go to Grand Malaysia Noby City, right?" Seeing the guests coming, the hostess leaned against the door frame of the car, and asked succinctly while cutting the cured meat with a silver knife and sandwiching it into the white bread.
"Yes, Baroness, I'm going to go to Grand Malaysian Tony City," Zhang Lisheng replied with a smile, but was interrupted by the caravan master's mouth, "I don't need to know why you went to Grand Malaysian Tony City, sir, it's just a fair deal, you give me gold, and I'll give you a safe journey."
Croe, let the servants squeeze in a little more, and vacate a wagon, and invite the gentleman to live in, and his diet is the same as that of me and Snow, and in the morning a bag of berry mash, white bread, and bacon can be eaten as much as you want. ”
"Yes, Lord Chief. Although a strong young man next to him was wearing the costume of a servant, the fabric of his clothes was obviously different from that of the neat Cheng dù, and he immediately replied respectfully, and smiled at Zhang Lisheng and said, "Guest, please come with me." ”
Feeling that the caravan's hostess's crisp and crisp attitude was more desirable, Wu Li smiled silently, said no more, nodded politely, followed the strong and honest young man, and sat in a wagon in the middle of the caravan.
In the days that followed, he had no intention of doing much, but Snow became interested in this mysterious traveler, and would surely come to him for a few words when the convoy was resting.
In this way, five days have passed in a blink of an eye, the arduous business journey has come to an end, the city of Damachina is already visible, when the convoy stopped for the last time, Zhang Lisheng jumped out of the carriage, looking at the magnificent city in front of him, and suddenly there was an inexplicable throbbing in his heart.
"This, this feeling is, is...
Could it be that Tina really stayed in the capital of the Red Iron Country," he shuddered with a ecstatic smile on his face, his heart was like numbness, and he muttered to himself incoherently, "Or did she know that I was coming, and she deliberately returned to the mortal world from the Kingdom of God."
No, Tina is not an ancient god, relying on the worship of millions, or even hundreds of thousands of believers, to collect the power of faith, my harvest in one day can be worth a hundred years of her hard work, maybe she has not established the kingdom of God at all..."
"Dear baby, you're still so arrogant," a familiar whisper suddenly sounded behind him, causing Wu Li Shen to freeze completely, "Are you so great compared to me?" (To be continued......
