4. Chance encounters
The master and apprentice walked blankly in the night.
"I really don't understand, these merchants don't bring any dry food with them when they go out for anything! It's good now, although they have saved enough money, but all the food in the shops in the town is out of stock...... Even the bakery is saying it's closed tomorrow because there's no flour!
Since she couldn't find a store with goods after walking around the town, and the hotel and other places of consumption were a bit extravagant for Aisha's current funds, Aisha reluctantly decided to leave for Nazca City now.
"However, we are the only ones in the town who will be paralyzed because the store has no goods to sell, right? Is our economy so bad? We don't even have a little grain reserves?"
Faced with Lin's questioning, Aisha turned her head awkwardly: "What's this...... It seems that there is no regular job or income in the town, and we are really the only one. ”
"Is that what a poor household is in the usual sense?"
"No, it wasn't like that in the first place - I was able to get enough money from the caravans I was able to get enough money from the caravans. It's just that this time the chain just fell off, and our family is not engaged in any production industry...... Of course, Lynn you can go and sell a cute meal, but do you think you'd do that?"
"Then I might as well gnaw on the bark!"
At the thought of becoming an existence like a rice worm, Lin said that she couldn't accept it anyway!
It is also impossible for Aisha to pull down this face, although she is very popular with the town, but Aisha will not allow herself to do such an undignified and undisciplined thing...... Therefore, Aisha simply locked the door and took Lin directly to Nazca City.
It's not like there is no bread in the bakeries in the big cities, right?
So the master and apprentice did something that most caravans did not dare to do - to travel alone in the middle of the night! Although for ordinary merchants, even if they formed a small team, they did not dare to rush at night, after all, they were not those big trading houses with backgrounds, and there was no place for thieves and robbers to be taboo...... As for the two girls, it's even more dangerous to walk at night, isn't it?
...... In fact, Lin would love to see if any robbers could escape from Aisha's hands safely. When she used to read novels, she always thought this kind of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger was very interesting......
"Now, Wet Sauce, do you think there will be robbers coming to rob us?"
"Actually, I'd like someone to send us some money, but generally speaking, a target like ours that seems too weak is not something that a robber would come to......" Aisha pointed to her face and said helplessly, "If you are a robber, do you choose to rob a caravan with normal guards at night, or two girls who look weak?"
Lin looked back and understood what Aisha was referring to - if it was during the day, it would be good to say, and the girl who dared to travel with two people at night, assuming that it was not two stunned, that is, she had enough confidence not to be afraid of danger. To put it bluntly, the robbers and the like are just trying to make a living, so naturally they will not risk the possibility of being bombed to provoke two girls who don't know the details...... In this world, judging people by their appearance is definitely a death FLAG!
"Isn't that boring?"
"Unless it's a vicious guy, usually the robbers are still very measured, and everyone's life is not easy, Lin, you just let them go......"
As she spoke, Aisha suddenly stopped.
"Lin, it turns out that there are really people who are forced to gnaw tree bark because of life?"
Looking in the direction Aisha was pointing, Lin saw a young man clinging to a large tree—strangely, the young man had a knot around his neck, and at the other end of the rope, a horizontal branch was tied.
“...... There must be a stupid guy who wants to kill himself, but when he reaches the worst, he finds that death is terrible, so he cowards it again! Hurry up and save people!"
Speaking of which, Lin, how did you come to that conclusion in the first place? Obviously, that scene is very weird, and most people will be subconsciously stunned, right?
......
"Ahem, ahem...... Thank you so much...... I didn't think suicide was such a terrible thing...... The moment the rope grabbed the trachea, I really thought I was going to die......"
"Since you know the Dao, don't do this kind of thing!"
Lin mercilessly gave the other party an iron fist - this kind of guy is really idle and painful, since it is painful to know that the death of the Dao is painful, then what are you going to hang yourself for? And you can still struggle to swing to the trunk of the tree after hanging your neck...... Sure enough, this guy didn't really plan to commit suicide in the first place, right?
"There's no way, although I already have plans to give up, but at that time, because of my fear of heights, my feet slipped a little......
"So, since you didn't plan to kill yourself, why are you climbing up a tree? And don't you have a fear of heights? I see you climb trees very well!"
- Is this man a fool?
"No, I think he's just an old man...... Anyway, because of all these trivial things, you're starting to 'despair' again, Dio Speer?"
"It's Dispel, it's not Dio Speer!! eh, the guy who will call me that......" After subconsciously refuting the other party's wrong name for himself, the young man finally found another girl, "Sure enough, it's you! You're still alive...... Oh poof!"
Aisha kicked the other party in the lower abdomen fiercely: "Please don't announce death to people casually...... On the other hand, if something happens now, when others find out, they will think that you have just put into action what you used to talk about, right? You can even omit the work of filing a case for investigation......
"Desperate...... I'm desperate for this world world where I casually kill my friends......"
The young man clutched his stomach, but before he groaned, he finished speaking...... After that, the handsome young man rolled on the ground without any image.
“......”
[No wonder the voice has a feeling of Kamiya Niangniang...... A Desperate Teacher in the Otherworldly Realm?]
Lin looked at the young man who was rolling on the ground with a painful face, resisted the desire to complain in her heart, and turned her head to look at Aisha: "This ...... Is it an acquaintance of Wet Sauce?"
"Yes, with the wonderful idea that if you trespass into the palace, you will be arrested and executed by the guards', and after breaking through several lines of defense in a row, you were ridden by me, a passing masked man...... The princess who passed by gave a nervous takedown, and by the way, she was an ordinary person, and she basically had no combat effectiveness. ”
Ordinary people with little combat power were able to break through several palace defenses in a row......
"Is this really 'ordinary' combat power......"
"Because he has an extremely rare mentally handicapped aura - although I don't think there is any problem with Elinn's mental resistance, but I still have to remind you, stay away from him, and be careful that your brain becomes bigger...... This guy has a strange mind, and he can influence the people around him......"
Lynn subconsciously took a step back.
The aura of a desperate teacher, Lynn doesn't want to try it at all.
[That kind of thing is still reserved for the students of the 2-year group.,I can't afford it......]
"Anyway, why don't you toss around in the imperial capital and go to this wilderness?" Aisha asked suspiciously.
"It's a long story...... "The young man named Dispel straightened up from the ground with a "whoosh", and suddenly changed into a serious face, "You also know that since the incident in the imperial capital...... Oh poof, why did you hit me again......"
Lynn looked at Aisha, who had once again been violent to the youth.
"Because you're talking seriously and you're really disobedient, understand?"
"Okay...... In fact, I was kicked out by my family and sent me to that filthy trade fair in the name of training me! I was desperate! I was desperate for this dark and snobbish family!"
[Really...... After switching to this mode, there is no sense of disobedience in an instant......]
What a sad man—Lynn commented.
