Chapter 178: Horse Town

The middle-aged man with a hammer in his hand and an inexplicable smile twisted his neck, and led a group of mercenary group members who had long been unable to hold back, and slowly walked into the town.

"Old mayor, I haven't seen you for so long, I miss you so much. ”

His eyes swept over the pedestrians on the street who were full of fear and disgust, and the middle-aged man's eyes finally stared at the old man in front of him, grinning, and the hideous scar on his face also moved, adding a bit of fierceness, "Our brother came this time, and I still want to borrow something from the mayor." After all, we have been friends for so many years, and our Storm Mercenary Group has encountered difficulties, but we directly thought of you. ”

Hearing this shameless scene, no matter how prepared the old man was, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his smile stiffened.

However, in order to avoid annoying these killing gods, the old man still kept laughing and said in a low voice: "The things have been prepared for a long time, and they are still the old number." ”

"Old number?" The middle-aged man's eyes narrowed, and he said with a smile: "Now that the snow is closing the mountain, and the materials are in short supply, it is naturally impossible to be the old number, I heard that you have a lot of harvest from this hunt, so let's hand over eighty percent of the hunting gains, and I will be the master of the rest of the reserves for you." ”

"Eighty?"

The old man's expression was a little iron-blue, and some of the other young men who heard this were even more stunned for a moment, and then they appeared angry.

Every year before the heavy snow closes the mountain, the hunting team of the town has to fight the monsters to the death to hunt for food, and every hunt means that someone will die, and it means that countless families in the town will be torn apart. But these things they have worked so hard for with their lives, the group of moths of the Storm Mercenary Group actually want eighty percent when they open their mouths?

If eighty percent is given to them, even if this year's hunt in Zema Town is in vain, those who sacrifice because of it will die in vain.

A young man who looked quite burly stood up from the crowd and said anxiously: "Mayor Lei, this is absolutely not good, if we give them eighty percent, our town will be short of the materials it should have!"

As he spoke, he gritted his teeth and glared at the members of the mercenary group, his expression seemed to be a little moved, and he said in a deep voice: "It's better for us to ......"

"Shut up!"

The old man let out a loud shout, stopped his next words, looked at the third leader of the Storm Mercenary Regiment with a teasing smile on his face, his lips squirmed for a long time, and he seemed to use all his strength to say, "Give it to him!"

"Mayor Mare!"

Those young men who heard the wind were a little unhappy, but under the old man's repeated repeats, they still reluctantly shut their mouths.

A man was sent to the hunting party to give a notice, and it didn't take long for cartloads of food to be brought from the end of the town, including some monster fur to keep out the cold, which could be used with a little treatment.

The middle-aged man kept smiling and silent, until these things were transported to his eyes, and after counting the number at random, he nodded with satisfaction, and said to the old man: "It's easy to cooperate with smart people, hehe, I haven't come to this Cema Town for a while, brothers, let's go into the town and find a restaurant, I'll treat you." ”

The mercenary group members shouted, pushed the supplies from the hands of the unwilling hunting party, and entered the town in a mighty way.

"Damn it, you bastards!"

The young man's face was extremely ugly, and his clenched fists were trembling.

The old man sighed, looked at the people of the hunting team around him, and bowed slowly, "Everyone, blame me for the old man's lack of ability, thousands of mistakes, and it is all my fault, I will compensate you for the losses you have suffered this year." ”

"Mayor Lei, you are also for our good, after all, if you clash with them, the people of our hunting team will basically be in danger. ”

"Yes, Mayor Lei, if you really fight these moths, the bastards of the Mercenary Association who are in the same boat with them will not make a move at all, let alone the town guards who have been bought a long time ago. ”

"But they are deceiving people too much this time, the materials we have worked so hard to hunt are actually eighty percent when we open our mouths, and their Storm Mercenary Group usually cuts the road and robs those merchant groups, how can they not even afford this little material!"

"Forget it, the family is powerful, if you provoke the big master who kills people without blinking, I'm afraid that all the people in our town will suffer. ”

Bursts of discussion came into his ears, and the old man sighed heavily, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, the sky is dawning, what should everyone do." Be careful not to clash with those people in the town, if ...... Hey, forget it, if you can, you can hide, if you can't, you have to accept your fate. ”

The old man's words were quite meaningful, and the people present naturally understood what they meant. If this group of people does something to rob the girl in the town again, if they can't avoid it, they will have to resign themselves to fate.

After the crowd in front of the town gate dispersed, the sky was completely bright. It had snowed all night, and now it finally stopped, the streets of the town, the shops have opened, the snow in front of the door has been cleared, and the residents have begun their busy lives for the day, some people are very concerned about the arrival of the Storm Mercenary Group in Zema Town, but some people still have a nonchalant attitude.

After all, no matter how arrogant and domineering the Storm Mercenary Group is, there is a bottom line that must be observed, that is, it cannot kill people easily. If the townspeople are slaughtered easily, the Mercenary Guild, which has always been indifferent to their actions, must be dealt with according to the rules.

However, it was this attitude of not caring about themselves that made very few people in the whole town dare to resist, and most of them chose to give in and hide, and over time, even when the defense forces in the town were in cahoots with them, no one dared to stand up and speak out.

The streets were filled with loud shouts in the morning after the first snowstorm of the winter, and the town's atmosphere came alive when the number of pedestrians on the streets increased.

Zema Town can be regarded as a relatively prosperous town, otherwise it would not be targeted by the Storm Mercenary Group, and the merchant groups who usually choose to come here to rest for a while are countless, and it can be regarded as a relatively important transit place for Liyuan City.

No one noticed that in front of the town gate, there was a young man wearing a cold coat and a black cloak inside, shaking off the snow on his body while walking towards the town.

Patting off the snow on his body, Bai Yang rubbed his hands, and while walking into the town, he said to the master: "This is the town of Zema, I used to come here when I was very young. I heard that there was once a strong man named Wu Zema here, and later named this place Zema Town. ”

"The town of Zema, the name is kind of interesting. The Juggernaut's lazy voice rang out, as if he didn't care about anything.

And Bai Yang has already been accustomed to the character of the master after this time, smiled faintly, and said: "Let's find a place to settle down first, although this town is not particularly big, there are still a lot of cheaper restaurants and inns." ”

"The mountain of gold coins in your boy's storage ring is enough for you to buy this town, but you don't even have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, you tell me what do you want?"

"Uh......" Bai Yang frowned, and then touched his nose in embarrassment, "I've been used to saving over the years, and if you don't say it, I forgot that I am quite wealthy." ”

"In that case, let's find a place to fill our stomachs first. "'Haoqi' waved his hand, Bai Yang stepped on the snow on the ground, and walked towards the town without being happy or slow.

With his memory, Bai Yang found the best restaurant in Cema Town, although he said that, it was just an ordinary restaurant in a prosperous area, there was no overly luxurious decoration, an ordinary three-story building, and a diligent and enthusiastic shopkeeper, Xiao Er, was more casual than the rigid and luxurious place in Liyuan City.

Walking into the restaurant, Bai Yang walked directly to the third floor, the shopkeeper seemed to be a little speechless and stopped, but when he saw that Bai Yang was just a teenager, he didn't make a sound to stop him, and after accompanying him to the third floor, his eyes inadvertently swept to the already full tables, the members of the Storm Mercenary Group were noisy and shouting, and the spitting stars were flying, with a momentum that no one would let go.

"Guest, why don't you take a seat downstairs?" Afraid that this scene would scare people away, the shopkeeper hurriedly smiled and said, "There are still many places downstairs." ”

Bai Yang's gaze swept over the noisy mercenary group members, and his gaze only stayed on the middle-aged man with a scar on his face for a second, and then said lightly: "No need." ”

As he spoke, he avoided the members of the mercenary group and chose a relatively remote location, but he could just look at the panoramic view of the entire third floor, and could see the situation on the street through the window next to him.

This kind of cautious mind, ordinary people naturally can't see any clues, and those members of the mercenary group who only know how to drink and brag still glanced at Bai Yang when he went upstairs, but found that he was just a delicate and thin teenager, so they didn't pay attention to it.

However, the third head of the regiment, who had been living a life of licking blood from the knife all the year round, looked at Bai Yang with some surprise, as if he felt the terrifying aura of the grand master from the body of this handsome young man, but after careful observation of the past, he felt that he was just an ordinary person, and after pondering for a few seconds, he only thought that he had drunk too much wine and his mind was a little unconscious, so he just gave up.

After Bai Yang sat down, he ordered a few signature dishes recommended by Xiao Er, and ordered four or five meat dishes, and then in his eyes when he looked at the monster, he casually stuffed two ancient gold coins into his palm, and said with a light smile: "It's troublesome." ”

He didn't even need to look at it, just by the pattern he felt on his fingertips and the heavy weight in his hand, the shopkeeper knew that these were two extremely valuable ancient gold coins, one was equivalent to half a year's remuneration, and two were enough for him to work for a year!

With a happy expression on his face, he shouted hard and trotted to help Bai Yang arrange this table of food.

After Xiao Er left, Bai Yang glanced at the supplies in the street downstairs, and then looked at the two dozen or so villains who were eating and drinking.

"Boy, I'm afraid those guys are not good at stubble, you shouldn't have to cause trouble as soon as you leave the Bai family. ”

The master found that Bai Yang's gaze was on the middle-aged strong man, so he asked.

Bai Yang shook his head, "As long as they don't come to provoke me, I naturally don't need to provoke them." But if they find me without opening their eyes......"

Retracting his gaze, Bai Yang grinned and said, "Then I don't mind killing a few people to warm up." ”
