Chapter 32: Hide and Seek
"Hey, hey, don't you understand the principle that adults don't interject when children speak?" said Cork glared at Joshua with his red eyes again.
"Uh-huh, boy, what are those two pieces of paper in your hand?" Oliel seemed interested in the paper in Joshua's hand.
"This is actually ......"
"Is it a treasure map, haha!" Joshua was about to answer when he was interrupted by McLun's laughter.
"Huh, why does this kid have a special liliang in his body? I can vaguely feel that he is different from ordinary children, but I can't say the specific difference. Pine floated in front of Joshua and suddenly felt that Joshua was different from ordinary people.
"Anyway, little one, you'd better not meddle in our affairs!" Cork motioned for Joshua to leave, "At a young age, you're not fit to do business here. ”
"Cork, you fool, this kid doesn't look small, do you see the back?" McLun smiled at Cork. It turned out that Geraint had sent two Mallory city guards to follow Joshua in secret. However, it seems that except for Joshua, everyone else present has discovered the existence of the chengguan, and their ability to conceal is really clumsy.
"Okay, stinky boy, what are you doing with a couple of Mallory city guards?" Oliel looked at Joshua, "you want to confiscate our things?"
"Hehe, I've always had a fixed stall here anyway, and people like you who walk around the streets and alleys to do business should have been cured a long time ago. "Cork daxiao.
"That's right, I've been selling magic armor at this bazaar for years. If you want to confiscate it, you can only collect your counterfeit medicines. McLun smiled at Olier as well.
"I'm a genuine product prepared by the master, how can it be a fake medicine?" Oliel glanced at Mai Lun with contempt, and then said to Joshua, "Actually, I've long been very dissatisfied with these chengguans. Child, I advise you not to make any decisions about our cargo!"
"Oh, boy, why do I know this iron sword on your waist so well?" Suddenly, Cork spotted the iron sword Joshua was carrying.
"This sword is ......"
"You stole this sword from me, didn't you?" Cork glared at Joshua viciously, interrupting what Joshua was about to say.
"Good boy, take the chengguan there to scrape my sword while I'm not paying attention. Kirk walked over to Joshua. Seeing that the situation was not good, the two Mallory city managers hurriedly rushed up to block Joshua's side.
"I said there may be a misunderstanding here, we are the lord of Haig Island...... "One of the chengguan tried to explain, but was quickly surrounded by everyone.
"Haha, it's funny that the chengguan and the children came to the bazaar to steal the goods of the vendors!" Mai Lun stepped forward and said with a smile, "You usually rely on the support of the Lord of Haig Island, and you always put on an unbeaten expression. Now we're going to teach you a good lesson. ”
"Are you going to make trouble in the streets?" the two Mallory city managers raised their spears in their hands.
"Don't count me, I'm just passing by and trying to recruit a few magic apprentices!, as an old man who enjoys life, how can he make trouble with these people?" Pyne turned around when he saw this, ready to "float" away.
"Don't go, old man!" Joshua suddenly stopped Pine.
"Why? I didn't want to have any conflict with you, but it seems like you still want to catch me?" Pine suddenly turned his head and glared at Joshua, the calm expression on his face gone.
"That's good, put aside the grievances between the four of us for a while, and then talk about it when this little guy and the chengguan are resolved. Cork said with narrowed eyes.
"This is terrible!" Joshua panicked.
"I warn you not to make trouble in the Baan Fairground. The two chengguan raised their spears and said.
"I also advise you not to act in the streets, how dangerous it is to carry a spear in the middle of town!" Pine snapped his fingers lightly and began to manipulate his magic.
"What's going on?" The spears in the hands of the two chengguan instantly took off their hands and flew out.
"Hehe, you old guy seems to have some skills, not the crooks I've seen before who cheat everyone out of gold under the guise of teaching magic. McLun said to Pyne with a smile, then picked up his axe and rushed towards Joshua.
"How dare you ......" Before the chengguan could speak, they were knocked away by a fist from McLun and Cork, and they fell to the ground in pain.
"Imp, it's your turn next. Give me back the sword!" Cork walked slowly towards Joshua.
"Uncle Geraint made this sword for me, so I won't come to the bazaar to steal your things!" Joshua said as he stepped back, "I've been learning chivalry from Uncle Geraint since I was a child. ”
"Little ghost, I don't believe you still making up this kind of lie!" Coke's face changed instantly.
"Won't you go back to the stall and count by yourself to see if the sword is missing? Joshua retorted.
"I'm looking at you now, this kid is very unpleasant. Cork yelled at Joshua, "Besides, even if this sword was really brought for you by your guy named Geraint, the sword was made by me and me, and I don't want to use it for you now." Give me back the sword, and I'll go back and count it. If the number of swords is not small, I will return the money to you. ”
"I won't give it to you, it's a gift from Uncle Geraint. Joshua grimaced at Cork.
"You stinky boy, are you looking for a fight?" said Cork, charging at Joshua.
"Huh, come and get me!" Joshua saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly ran away.
"I'll see where you're going!" said Cork in hot pursuit of Joshua.
"You can't catch me, hehe!" Joshua took advantage of his small size to dodge and scurry around some stalls.
"Give me zhanzhu, zhanzhu!" said Kok, who followed Joshua all the way
"You broke my clay pot, don't go!"
"Oh, my watermelon, you bastard accompany me watermelon!"
As Joshua was running around in the alleys of the market, Cork couldn't help him for a while. Joshua took advantage of his small stature to scurry in and out of various stalls. And he studied with Geraint for six years, and his skills are much better than before. As for Cork, although he is not tall as a dwarf, he is relatively strong. Because he was very mobile along the way, he accidentally broke the goods that many other vendors had placed on their stalls, but he never managed to catch Joshua.
"Damn little imp, get out of the way!" Cork's eyes glowed red again.
"What are they doing? It's such a mess, let's close the stall sooner." Some of the street vendors rushed to pack their goods and prepare to leave this place that seemed very "dangerous" at the moment, before they could suffer any damage.
"Hey, come and get me!" Joshua grimaced at Cork as he ran.
"Cork, you're so useless, you can't even catch a child. Let's watch my Uncle Mai Lun personally go out!" At this time, Mai Lun also joined the team of hide and seek.
"Oh, no, two people are coming to get me this time, I've got to get back to Uncle Geraint. Joshua saw that the situation was not good, and hurried to the camp.
As he ran, Joshua suddenly noticed a small hole in one of the walls in the corner of the market. So he got out of the little hole. That's when something unexpected happened to him.
"Mai Lun, you idiot, can't you let me go out first? ”
"Cork obviously your head is too big, and we're stuck here. ”
"Haha, you guys are so funny. It turned out that Cork and McLun were scrambling to get into the small hole, and it turned out that the entire hole was only the size of one person. The two of them refused to give in to each other, and as a result, they were stuck in the hole together. Joshua laughed as he watched them get stuck together, and his stomach hurt.
"Little ghost, don't think that if you deal with these two barbarians, you will be safe. Suddenly, a voice rang out behind Joshua. But before he could turn around, a hand grabbed him by the collar behind him and lifted him up.
"You let go of me, let go of me. I didn't bring the chengguan to clean you up, I beckoned everyone to join the army!" Joshua struggled to wave the summoning order in his hand. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and both pieces of paper flew out of Joshua's hand, one of which happened to be attached to McLun's face.
