Chapter 30: The Rain in the Cage

The carriage turned around the corner of the hill and disappeared from view. Kaoru stood in the wind, her eyes were misty, her thoughts drifted somewhere, perhaps she had galloped away with the carriage, leaving only the white priest's robes hunting in the wind.

Andemen and the Yin Owl Man were not in a hurry to leave, but went up to a hillside to talk.

The yin owl man looked at Cangyue Kaoru's thin back and said, "Don't make any mistakes this time." ”

An Demen said respectfully: "Holy envoy, rest assured, Wu Tuo is already looking for the Extreme Yin Land, and I think there will be information in the next few days." ”

The yin owl man gritted his teeth and said, "Hateful, if it weren't for that kid to stir up, we would have succeeded." ”

An Demen glanced at Cangyue Kaoru and lowered his voice and said, "Hmph, I will make that kid's life worse than death." ”

The yin owl man asked again, "Has the silver monkey been found?"

"Nope. Andemen shook his head, "It's strange to say, the two high-level demonic beasts of the elite bloodline have not been able to escape, and one pet has mysteriously disappeared." ”

"Pets? Are you idiots? Have you ever seen a pet that dares to shake its head and tail in front of an elite bloodline demonic beast?"

Andemen was stunned for a moment and said, "Could it be that the silver monkey is weird?"

The yin owl man muttered, "I don't know, anyway, this monkey is not simple. ”

"Yes. When I got back, I searched it hard and found it as soon as possible. ”

"Those two demonic beasts, what did Wu Tuo say?"

"Heaven Feather has been locked up, Wu Tuo has already tried to disperse the beast control contract in the manticore's body, but the strange thing is that there is no trace of the contract found in the manticore's body, Wu Tuo is still researching. ”

"A young man with two high-level demonic beasts and a mysterious silver monkey, find out his origin as soon as possible, I don't want to change at a critical moment. ”

"Yes. Andermen obeyed again.

The Yin Owl man nodded, didn't dwell too much on this matter, changed the topic, and said: "Xianyin Castle has a vast territory and rich materials, and it is also the throat fortress leading to the royal capital in the Northern Regions, so the position of duke must not be lost. ”

"I had already negotiated terms with the Duke of Louise, and I would marry Miss Gi'er when that old fellow Bennett died. I don't know what kind of soup Miss Ji'er poured into her father, and she asked the old guy to announce the holding of a crystal capture to marry when he was sober. It looks like it's going to take a bit more effort. ”

"Have you found the team?"

"Almost, eleven beginner-level martial artists, seven middle-level martial artists, one high-level mage, and one middle-level mage, it should be enough. ”

"I want nothing to be sure. I'll give you another High Mage to make sure you win. ”

Andemen was overjoyed and said gratefully: "Thank you to the Holy Envoy, so that you can be safe." ”

The yin owl man touched his chest with his hand, bowed slightly, and said, "All for the sake of the god of the underworld." ”

Andermen also posed as he was, and then said, "All for the sake of the god of the underworld." ”

The sky is even more gloomy, and the rain is ready to fall at any moment.

The carriage turned the last section of the mountain road and drove onto the official road. Pedestrians on the road hurried, praying that the rain would fall later so that they could find shelter.

The carriage traveled for a while and came to a slow stop. Xiao Wu opened the car door from the passenger seat, and said: "There is a checkpoint in front, and everyone who comes and goes must be checked, we need to dress up." ”

Li Nuo still looked overly sad, but his state finally improved, and he nodded blankly when he heard this.

Kester walked into the carriage carrying a flask and a package, and comforted: "Brother, look away, there is no obstacle in the world that cannot be overcome. ”

Li Nuo took the package in his hand and opened it silently, inside was a set of linen suits, the most common clothes worn by ordinary mercenaries.

Kester said: "What are your plans for the future, brother? It's better to do it with us, I just saw my brother shoot, he is a good hand, and he will definitely be able to make a name for himself among the mercenaries." ”

Li Nuo smiled bitterly: "I can't even get close to other people's bodies." ”

Kester adored and said: "That's a Xuanwu Master, there are few in the entire Heavenly Empire who can defeat him, and it's the first time I've seen it." The brother is still young, and it is unimaginable to be able to resist the Xuanwu Master's move. ”

"But I can't even keep a woman, it's really useless. ”

Kester handed over the flask and said, "The world is unpredictable, look at the point." Come, take a sip. It's a good thing, and it's a good thing to get drunk and make sure you forget all your worries. ”

Li Nuo took the flask and said, "Thank you." ”

He did want to anesthetize himself, unscrewed the lid of the pot, and took a sip with his head up. The smell of wine was spicy and pungent to his throat, Li Nuo choked and coughed, and the liquor that had just arrived in his mouth squirted out again, spraying Kester's body.

Kester didn't mind, laughed heartily, and said: "This is Ula wine, strong and strong, with a strange taste, and it can't be compared with the sweet things that those nobles drink, but it is the favorite of our mercenaries, and it is a manly iron buddy." Don't rush, drink slowly at first. ”

Li Nuo raised the wine jug, put it down again, looked into Kester's eyes and said, "Is it that you don't know anything when you're drunk?"

Kester's eyes flashed a strange color, and he said, "Of course." There are too many worries in this world, and when you are drunk, there are no worries. ”

"Okay, I'll drink. Li Nuo drank the wine in the pot very slowly, and sure enough, it didn't feel so spicy.

"Yes, that's it, take your time. It's good to be drunk, and it's all over. Kester's voice was like a big bad wolf tempting the white rabbit to open the door.

It's a pity that Li Nuo didn't seem to notice anything abnormal, and drank all the wine in the pot in one gulp.

Actually, the wine is very spicy and has a strange smell, which is really hard to drink. But as long as Li Nuo thinks of Cangyue Xun's parting eyes and the sad song, he doesn't feel anything.

He's been ruthless in his heart, he's ready, he's ready to endure the pain of the first stage. Therefore, no matter how bad the wine is, it can't stop his firm will.

Before getting drunk, Li Nuo vaguely heard Xiao Wu asking, "Is the amount of medicine too much?" This is the amount that can faint a beginner-level demonic beast." ”

Then I felt kicked by Kester, and I heard him say, "Damn, I thought this kid noticed it and scared me." According to the news from the City Lord's Mansion, this guy is a demonic beast wearing human skin......"

Li Nuo didn't hear the conversation that followed, because he was already drunk, or rather, fainted.

Li Nuo woke up again, and was woken up by a pouring rain. He found himself shackled in hands and feet, in a wooden cage, pulled by a wagon, and making his way through the rain.

The cage was huge, and there were seven other people around him, shackled like him, each in tatters, one simply topless. They were unkempt and filthy, and their bare parts were washed away by the rain, black and white.

The shirtless man is burly, with a fierce look on his face, and his body is full of scars, and he looks like a ruthless character at first glance. Everyone else tried to stay away from him, but the cage was so big, where could they hide if they hid.

Because Li Nuo was unconscious, he was moved to the opposite side of the burly man by others. After he woke up, he didn't care, looked into the burly man's eyes, and said, "Where are we going?"

The burly man couldn't imagine that Li Nuo dared to talk to him, so he couldn't help but be stunned, and said in an urn voice: "Don't you have long eyes yourself?"

Li Nuo took a closer look at the surrounding situation, which was obviously a street, with many shops on both sides of the road. Probably due to the rain, there are almost no pedestrians on the road, and many shops are locked and closed altogether.

Li Nuo felt that this street was a little familiar, and it turned out that he had returned to Aegean City. He couldn't help but sigh for a while, after a day, he passed by the same street three times, and the situation was really different.

For the first time, he rode a tall horse, hugged a beautiful woman, and was surrounded by more than a hundred soldiers, how majestic. The second time, hiding in the carriage, fleeing for his life in a panic, he didn't even dare to show his face, how embarrassed. This is the third time, bound hand and foot, in a cage, like a sold animal, how miserable.

Li Nuo was touched, he laughed dryly, and said to the burly man: "They are all afraid of you, are you a martial artist?"

The burly man said: "You are not afraid of me, are you also a martial artist?"

Although he did not answer Li Nuo, this rhetorical question undoubtedly recognized his identity as a martial artist.

Li Nuo shook his head and said, "I'm not a martial artist, but I've fought with a martial artist, and I can recognize that breath." ”

The burly man said: "You are really lucky that you didn't die." ”

Even a martial artist who has just cultivated martial arts is by no means something that ordinary people can deal with. This is also the reason why when Li Nuo broke through in the Earl's Court in the morning, he was able to break through among ordinary soldiers, but when he encountered a beginner martial artist, he was in a hurry, and he could only exchange injuries for injuries.

Li Nuo said: "Maybe." Can you tell me about the martial arts?"

He didn't talk to the burly man because he had nothing to say, but because he wanted to use every opportunity to understand his opponent so that he could prepare for saving Kaoru Cangyue. He only had three months to spare, and he was really urgent.

The burly man was not as close as he appeared on the outside, and said with great interest: "You want to become a warrior?"

Li Nuo said: "I want to try." ”

Only by becoming like the enemy can you better understand the enemy.

The burly man said: "I have a martial arts cultivation technique, which is very good, I can teach it to you, what price can you pay?"

The treasures that Li Nuo scavenged from Xiaocai were all in Xiaocai's space magic stone, and there was only a mirror and a token on his body, which was a token that Kaoru Cangyue gave him to meet her father.

Li Nuo's face suddenly changed, he touched his chest, then relaxed again, and reached out to touch his pocket. Luckily, the mirror is still there, and so are the tokens.

Mirrors are too important to be lost.

I don't know if Kester didn't recognize the preciousness of the mirror, or if he counted on him to write to Kaoru Sotsuki on a regular basis and didn't search for his belongings.

Li Nuoan calmed down and said to the burly man: "I don't have any money. ”

"Every martial art is not something that can be measured by money. The burly man said, "Take out what you have hidden in your bosom and take a look, maybe I can exchange it with you." ”

Li Nuo's action just now fell in the eyes of the burly man, he could see Li Nuo's nervousness, that thing must be a treasure.

Li Nuo flatly refused, saying, "Impossible. You offer other conditions. ”

The burly man suddenly laughed and said, "Do you know that every day there are many fools like you who dream of being a warrior and are deceived into bankruptcy?"

"What do you mean?"

"We may not live tomorrow, money doesn't mean anything to me anymore, so I'm not interested in continuing to tease you. Got it? Fool. ”

Li Nuo frowned and said, "Are you kidding me?"

The burly man sighed with emotion and said, "Don't trust others in the future, sometimes the person you trust the most will betray you." However, it's useless to tell you this, let's talk about it if you can get out of the arena alive. ”
