Chapter 159: The First Frustration

In the afternoon, Donne, who had taken off his disguise, returned to the hotel alone.

"Here. In the corner of the tavern hall, Jack raised his hand.

They had been in the carriage for a long time, and then Don found an opportunity to get, and honestly he wasn't sure if he had gotten away from the track. From that subtle feeling, he knew that it was the same group of bounty hunters from before who was following.

The strange methods of the magician, the shocking strength of the ground-level martial artist, all of this made Tang En not much sure in his heart. In this case, it is useless for Jack to stay here, and it will even affect the chance of escaping, so it is better to leave.

(This chapter is 4,300 words, well, there is no doubt about it, the tanuki has deleted a lot of cheap hands.) Make it up tomorrow, make it up tomorrow...... οΌ‰

Fortunately, Don left the carriage after that, and wandered around the remote alleyway for a long time, without any attack or feeling the shadow again. Kind of escaped......

When Don sat down, Jack asked urgently, "...... before"

Jack was not a fool, as can be seen from the flexibility of the time. He knows his strength, Tang En looks like he is facing a great enemy, and he has no play.

"Remember the guys we met before we entered the black market?"

"The woman with a special figure?" Jack recalled, blinking twice.

"Uh......" Tang En stroked his forehead, "There are three men next to him." ”

"Is there one...... Ahem. Jack touched his hair slightly embarrassed and asked curiously, "Are they your enemies?"

Donn nodded, "Sort of, they're bounty hunters." ”

Jack, of course, knew about the profession of a bounty hunter, and was surprised, "How did you get into trouble with these madmen?"

"It's hard to say, in short, you can avoid it in the future. ”

Jack was a little shocked: "Their strength is very high?" Although he had paid attention to the woman's figure before, he didn't see the depth of the other party's strength. Jack just thought that Tang En was afraid of the other party's strength, and even he secretly made up his mind in his heart that he would play tricks on the other party in the future.

Tang En spread his hands: "Three prefecture-level martial artists are at the peak." One is at least at the level of a great magician, do you say it's high?"

"Uh......" Jack's mouth opened wide, instantly dispelling the thought of death.

With such an enemy on the side, no one is in a better mood. So the atmosphere at this point is a little heavy.

"Come, have a drink!" Jack said, holding his glass, pretending to be relaxed, "Don't worry too much. With your camouflage skills, there is absolutely no problem, so you will not be able to avoid it today. ”

Of course, things are not that simple, but Tang En is not the mediocre down-and-out college student he used to be, and raised his glass: "Haha, that's right." ”

Ding! The wine glasses collided, and he tilted his head and swallowed.

"That's right!" Jack touched the wine stain, "I inquired, Bowis and Bernie were three months ago, and now one is the head of the security department. One is the commander-in-chief of the cavalry. I heard that they were originally transferred to Brandu City, but they still chose to come to the north......"

Speaking of this, Jack slammed his wine glass on the table with a depressed expression: "Damn, this isn't a convulsion!"

Tang En was also a little speechless when he heard this. You said hello haode went to the capital of the great haode to get promoted and make a fortune, how good it is to enjoy light blessings, why bother to come to this chaotic north to join in the fun, does it hurt to be idle?

This news naturally made the two Donnes, who were temporarily staying in Riva City, a little depressed. However, after the foreshadowing of the terrifying bounty hunter group in front of them, they were somewhat numb. The so-called debts are not worried, and lice are not itchy. That's it.

After a few more drinks, Jack smashed his mouth twice, and sighed with some emotion: "Tsk, I said that your Jihua should change places, it's obviously bad luck here." ”

Tang En smiled bitterly and shook his head, the choice here was made after a lot of consideration, and a lot of preparation work had been done before, how could it be said that it would be changed.

Not long after, Josia, who had been observing outside for a day, returned with the propagandists.

Everyone gathered in the room to discuss the meeting, and finally decided to start the publicity tomorrow morning. The location has also been chosen, but after Don looked at it, he suggested deleting the downtown square, center street and so on.

That's right, these geographical locations are extremely haode, and the flow of people is also the largest, and the publicity results are predictably good. But Don knew that Boris was powerful, the city was no better than the countryside, and if a big-character poster was posted here, Boris would inevitably respond quickly when he received the order, and it would be difficult to say what would happen when the time came.

Of course, Colin didn't know Bowes, so they were skeptical of the suggestion. However, Zuihou Josia still took Donn's advice, after all, she was also from Lay Rock City. Although he was not an assassin, he could not personally appreciate how powerful Boris was. But I have also heard of the other party's reputation and some terrible deeds.

............

The next morning, it was dark.

The city of Riva was silent, perhaps because of the mining, and the sky was always a little dark, but thankfully there were no raindrops.

The Grey Army quietly set off from the backyard of the hotel and kicked the paper into the streets.

Gradually, the sheets of paper, which looked very white and shiny in the dark night, continued to spread. From far to near, it is like a ray of light at dawn, and like a flag waving in the wind......

"Whew...... It's fucking cold!" Not far from the gate of the garrison hall, two black shadow probes cowering in the corner poked their heads.

"I'm wondering, this is your gray army's business, why do you have to pull me?" a dark shadow's tone was full of indignation.

"Brother, of course there are blessings and hardships. The other figure glanced at the distance, very justifiably.

"I'm rubbing, having your brother is really a blessing for me to be reincarnated for eight lifetimes!"

"How is this possible. ”

"You know, that's ......"

"There are still three or four reincarnations!"

β€œ...... Your mother!"

Needless to say, these two are really Donn and Jack.

Don was more jealous of Bowes, so even though it was the first time to publicize, it stands to reason that there should be no surprises, so he decided to stay outside the security department. As for Jack, uh, when one is about to go to the cold wind to keep an eye on, while the other friend is curled up in the warm bed...... Well, it's not harmonious at all, there's no love at all!

"Hehe, remember the last time we stood guard outside the garrison?" Donn said.

Jack tightened his clothes: "Nonsense. Of course I do. You were the same idea to beat up Bowes, and you fucking wanted me to sneak into his office. Meet your friend, tsk......"

"Huh. Tang En touched his nose a little embarrassed, "Didn't you go later?" ”

"That's because Ghost Face showed ......up," Jack explained angrily as he debunked Done, then turned his head and said, "Speaking of which, I remember you didn't say you knew Ghost Face before." How is he now? I haven't heard from him since then......"

β€œ...... Well, Ghost Face is dead. Don sighed a little and shook his head.

"Huh?" Jack was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and muttered, "No wonder, this Bowes who swore not to kill ghosts and swore not to leave Lay Rock City has arrived here......"

Just when the two of them had a ride and chatted without a match, suddenly,

Click......

A faint sound of horses' hooves gradually came.

Don and Jack were shocked. They looked at each other and said, "No......

I think that at the beginning, when the two of them stepped on the spot in the Lai Yan City Security Department, they also encountered this situation.

Fortunately, the sound of horses' hooves was clearly coming from outside. And not from inside the security department.

Tang and the two hid their bodies further into the shadows, and in a moment, they saw a large group of cavalry galloping towards them, and then the door of the garrison hall opened.

This is...... Don and Jack open their mouths wide. looked at the scene in front of him in a daze.

The pair of cavalrymen looked a little embarrassed, and their bodies were covered in blood. Some of their armor was shattered and they were directly helped off their horses by their companions. Even that took the lead with Bowes and Bernie. It was also a little injured, and his face was gloomy.

They didn't stay outside the door for long, and the inside quickly rushed out and carried the wounded inside.

"I see, haha!" Jack looked moved, and then couldn't help but chuckle, "Bowes, Bowes, you have today." haha......”

The laughter was full of schadenfreude, and Don also understood at this time, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

There is no doubt that Bowes is being sniped. This is unthinkable in Laiyan City, those underworld people, assassins, etc., when they encounter him, they all take a detour, let alone take the initiative to provoke him. But this is Riva City, and Bowes hasn't been here for long, and there will undoubtedly be many obstacles if he wants to do the same thing here.

The truth was similar to what Don and the others had guessed, and Bowes was going to catch an assassin who had revealed his whereabouts tonight. Unexpectedly, he was suddenly ambushed by a large number of unknown people on the way. Although they finally fought their way out of the encirclement, the price they paid was not small.

This was inevitable, and even Bowes himself had anticipated it. In fact, from the time Bowes and Bernie came to Riva, they were attacked repeatedly. At their worst, they were assassinated dozens of times a day. Eating, sleeping, etc., are not peaceful.

But Boris is Boris, and he would rather bend than bend. Despite this resistance, he remained steadfast in his old ways. During this time, not to mention those who were killed on the spot, they were the assassins and bounty hunters who were personally sent to the gallows...... I don't know how many.

If there was an old man in Laiyan City, I believe he would be very familiar with these things in front of him. Because the same thing had happened to Lay Rock City before, and even Bowes's family had been assassinated and killed at that time. However, since then, Bowis has lived in the security department, and then he still frantically adopts iron-blooded methods, and for more than ten years, he has finally completely subdued the dark shili of Laiyan City.

......

When Tang En saw the situation in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

After all, if Boris had been entangled in these things, then their big-character poster Jihua would undoubtedly have gone better.

After about two hours, the streets were already sparsely populated with early passers-by, and Donn and Jack took the opportunity to leave.

However, they did not go directly back to the hotel, but walked to the places where the big-character posters were posted. The same is true of Josia's men, who hid around and mingled in the crowd, ready to see how the populace would react.

As the first big-character poster was discovered, screams rang out in the streets, followed by a rapid crowd.

Human beings are born with hidden genes to watch the excitement, but in a moment, people from various places joined the ranks of onlookers.

Comparatively speaking, city dwellers are more knowledgeable than rural dwellers. So they quickly understood the meaning of these strange paintings.

"Haha, this painting is quite interesting......"

"Grey Army, does the Empire have this legion? Haven't you heard of it......"

"I've heard that it was organized by a group of people on their own, saying that it was to improve the status of ordinary people......"

"Nonsense, haven't you read the newspaper? It's obviously a gang of mob bandits, and it is said that burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil......

............

Seeing is believing, hearing is not believingβ€”there are proverbs in other worlds that have similar meanings.

However, no matter what world you are in, there are still not many people who can truly abide by this. Just as the truth is only a decoration in a dark room until it is proven. And all kinds of ridiculous or absurd rumors are popular under the bright white sun.

In such an era, the circulation of information was very closed and backward. Word of mouth is the most common way, and the most advanced is the newspaper. Now the newspapers are in the hands of the Bran officials, so their negative propaganda about the Grey Army is almost indoctrination.

Along the way, Donn's face was a little ugly, and although he had expected the citizens to resist these words and paintings with suspicion, the strength of this still shocked him in his heart.

A lie becomes the truth, even more exaggerated, after it has been preached a thousand times.

The image of the Grey Army is like this, and now these people have preconceived official ideas, so when they encounter conflicting views, they will always resist and resent them......

Soon, some people began to tear up the big-character posters angrily.

"Donn?" Jack asked, looking at the young man in the crowd holding shredded paper and shouting "It's a lie", touching his nose and turning his head.

The young man's costume was not too ornate, and he was clearly not noble. However, he is still more particular than ordinary citizens, and he should be the son of a wealthy businessman. This group of vested interests is not surprising in its opposition to the Grey Army. Because of the concept of the Gray Army, there is some meaning of average wealth.

"Leave him alone, let's go back!" Donn shook his head and walked in the direction of the hotel.

When he returned to the inn, Don met a somewhat dejected crowd in the lobby of the tavern.

These people had participated in the propaganda of the villages, and they were treated like heroes at that time. Now that I have suffered my first setback here, I am inevitably depressed under the gap.

Gradually, more and more gloomy propagandists came back from outside, and then sat on the bench without saying a word.

The atmosphere in the hall was a little depressing, which made the innkeeper who was watching from the side very baffled, and secretly muttered to himself if this group of people had lost money in business......

Then Josia walked in from outside, her face was calm, after all, Don had told her that these things might happen.

Walking into the hall and seeing everyone looking like this, Josia couldn't help but be stunned, then nodded clearly, and smiled: "What's wrong with everyone?

"Uh......" Everyone nodded, looking at Josia who was smiling freely in front of them, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

"Not to mention that this is not a failure, at best it is a small obstacle. Think about what we want to achieve in the end, and what are these difficulties in front of us?"

"Yes, yes!" the innkeeper interjected, "it's normal to lose money and make money in business." Look at my hotel, it used to be very glorious, but now I don't stick to this picture. ”

......

Maybe the boss's intention is just to worry that everyone is gone, and the house money will not make much. But now it is undoubtedly that everyone who has cheered up can't help but let out a knowing daxiao.

"Haha, the boss is right, we should learn from you. ”

"Boss, then I wish you a prosperous business in the future!"

β€œ......”

Looking at Josia, who was a little stunned, Don gave a thumbs up, and the former spread his hands and stuck out his tongue and smiled.
