While the merchant was not paying attention, the bear secretly took a look at the merchant and the merchant ship.

This merchant ** looks like he is in his forties, with a rich face, a mustache under his nose, a hair bun slightly coiled up on the top of his head, and a pair of big clogs on his feet, which clatters when he walks.

"What kind of business are you doing?" the bear asked the merchant as he looked at the empty deck.

"This, it's hard to say, I do anything, as long as it's to make money, I'll plug in. The merchant smiled and said, "For example, I once resold porcelain, took the porcelain from the Central Plains to the Western Regions to sell, and also transported the spices and jewels from the Western Regions to the Central Plains.

In addition, we have discovered a new continent in the east, far away from the Central Plains. There, there were a lot of people and a lot of things that we had never seen before, and this time, we bought a lot of things there that were not available in the Central Plains and Fuso. I hope it sells for a good price. ”

"Then good luck with that. Xiong smiled and said, to be honest, Xiong has a strong interest in the new things in the merchant's mouth, but Xiong can't show that he is very interested in things, lest the Fuso man in front of him think that he thinks about his goods very much.

After talking to the Fuso people in front of him, Xiong suddenly realized that he didn't seem to hate the Fuso people that much. At the very least, Xiong felt that there was a difference between the Fuso and the Fuso people. Not every Fuso is so hateful.

As a result, Xiong gradually dispelled his desire to wash Fusang with blood. Saving people's lives is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, maybe he was a high monk who sat on the ground in his last life, right? Xiong tilted his neck and thought silently in his heart.

"Perhaps, I'm interested in this thing. The merchant suddenly said such a sentence, which made Xiong stunned, could it be that what he was thinking was guessed by the merchant?

"Let's go, I'll take you to see what I've been in this time. The merchant said, stood up, and led the bear toward the cabin.

The merchant ship was not small, even larger than Robben's pirate ship, but there were not many people on board, less than ten people.

The cabin is divided into a passenger cabin and a cargo hold. The merchant walked slowly into the warehouse with the bear.

The volume of this warehouse is really not small, when the bear walked in, he was stunned by the treasures inside, which were all the skins of various animals, all kinds of specimens of birds and animals, all neatly displayed in this cargo hold. And just near their fur, there are some animal bone products.

"This is the legendary ivory, and it's very valuable. The merchant pointed to a piece of white solid on the side, and said to the bear, "There are as many elephants in this world as there are these things, but you don't seem to have elephants in the Central Plains." ”

Before the bear could react, the merchant pointed to an ornament next to him, "This one is made of wild rhinoceros bones, it is very strong and beautiful." ”

Immediately afterwards, the merchant stepped aside, pointed to a jar, and smiled strangely at the bear, "Guess what's here?"

The bear looked at the jar and felt that it seemed to emit a strange smell, so he shook his head, "I don't know, what is it? Why does it smell weird?"

"This is bear bile. The merchant said flatly.

But just as the word merchant came out, the bear's body was full of murderous intent in an instant, could it be that the merchant in front of him wanted to kill me?

However, the merchant's explanation then relieved the bear: "You see, here are the paws I cut off from the bear's body, and the fur that I peeled off from it. This bear can be regarded as a well-deserved death, and so many things on its body can be used. ”

This sentence made the bear sound uncomfortable.

And it's not just because of the bear's name, which is a bit of a conflict with this title.

Xiong just felt that what this businessman did seemed to be a little too cruel.

However, this is not my own business after all, and it has nothing to do with myself. Xiong took a breath silently, and then slowly walked towards the outside of the cabin, "I'm sorry, it's too stuffy in this cabin, I want to go out and breathe." ”

The merchant didn't seem to notice the bear's unhappiness, but instead looked at his so-called collectibles intoxicated, and nodded, "Since you're not feeling well, go out and breathe first, and I'll look here for a while." ”

The bear didn't say anything, turned around and walked out of the cabin. The bear didn't know what the merchant was still looking at, wasn't it just a pile of animal fur, the remains of animals that had been killed, what was there to see?

The majestic wind blew across the deck, bringing a hint of the sea, which made the bear feel much more relaxed, and a crescent moon crossed the night sky, sprinkling the bright silver light on the night deck.

"This night, it was so lovely. The bear had forgotten that the merchant had brought with him the skins and specimens of the animals he had seen. Bears have never liked this, and killing too many creatures may be another sin.

"How about giving this to you?" When the merchant came out of the cabin, he came to the bear's side and gave him an ornament in his hand, "This pendant is made of yak bones, and it has the unique symbolic imprint of the locals, representing their totem, which is said to bring luck to people, and now I give it to you." ”

The merchant's pretended generosity did not make the bear feel any more kind to him. On the contrary, the bear hated the hypocrisy of the merchants, and it was only a disguise for them to become pretentious here.

"I'm sorry, I don't like this. Instead of turning his head to look at the merchant, the bear leaned on the railing of the merchant ship by himself, looking at the moon in the sky, and remembered the joy of that night.

It was also a dark night, and it was also the moonlight like today, and Xiaoyaozi didn't know where to buy a jar of drunken eight immortals, so he had to pull the bear to drink with him.

Xiong doesn't like to drink, but it's Xiaoyaozi's request, so Xiong can only be respectful and obedient.

"On the moonlit night of the twenty-four bridges, where can the jade teach?" is just a poem chanted by Xiaoyaozi.

It was this poem that made Xiong recall the past at once, and recalled the unbearable past.

Lan, at this moment, are you still used to living in the underworld? Xiong held his chin and looked at the distant moon, thinking about the distant people.

Perhaps, in my life, you are indispensable after all. Since then, Xiong has seen many women, Xia Yun, Red Aya, and Hiroshi

However, Xiong always felt that no woman could give him that feeling, the feeling that Lan brought to Xiong at the beginning, a feeling of stability, steadfastness, and sweetness.

Perhaps, this is love. Xiong thought so.
