The last 2000 yuan
Chapter 299 Undercurrent
The next day, Huo Lei excitedly ran to see the two of them, saying that the caravan was about to leave, and asked them to get ready.
All the year round, the two of them and the little milk dragon had already had breakfast, packed up their things, and immediately went downstairs with Hall Thunder.
Miss Hall was sitting in the front lobby of the hotel waiting, the caravan at the door was noisy, and the steward waved his whip to urge the slaves to load the car quickly, and when they finished their work, he drove them into the prison car.
Tie Buping looked at the eldest lady.
When the young lady saw the two coming out, her face was very cold, and her whole face was filled with displeasure.
"What happened to her last night?" Tie Buping asked with a mind link.When she came back last night, she hurriedly hugged him and rolled the sheets, leaving him no time to ask what he did to this young lady last night.
I haven't looked at the young lady all year round, and replied nonchalantly: "I didn't do anything, I just gave a little mental hint to make her think that we rejected the request to send her to the port, and at the same time, she will subconsciously ignore it when she sees Gaia in the future." , and will never remember what she saw. Unless someone's spiritual level can surpass me and decipher the hint I gave her."
But it’s not a bragging all the year round. His spiritual power level has reached the holy level, and he is faintly breaking through to the demigod level. How many people in this world can break through his spiritual hints?Even if there is a demigod boss hidden in Hall's family or the Magician's Guild, not to mention whether this young lady has a chance to meet the demigod boss, even if there is a chance, when the big boss finds out that this young lady has been lowered After receiving the spiritual hint, and deciphering it again, knowing what she saw, he would have gone somewhere by then.
In the future, even if the Huoer family wanted to arrest him and the little milk dragon, they would not dare to do so.There are many people in this world who want to hunt dragons, but none of them dare to let the dragon clan know, even demigods.
And as long as he is given time to turn the knowledge he has learned this year into strength, even if he takes the little milk dragon with him in a grand manner, he no longer has to worry about someone making trouble for him.
Hall Thunder ran over and enthusiastically introduced them to the head of the caravan.
Before Tie Buping went out in the morning, he was cast with magic all the year round, only changing the color of his eyes, from pure black to the most common brown.
The people in the caravan had never been in contact with the two of them, and they didn't know that Tie Buping was a vegetable tribe. They were in urgent need of protection. They saw that they were dressed as a magician and a warrior. Although they didn't have the identity badges of magicians and warriors, Hall Thunder explained on their behalf. , Said that they had just come out of their hometown and hadn't had time to go to the guild to apply for identity and level certificates. This time they were willing to accept the task of protecting the caravan because they were also going to the guild in the City of Beasts.
Hearing the words, the head of the caravan let the two of them show off a little.
I chanted spells all the year round, and with a tap of the magic wand, the water in the bucket used to wash the horses at the door turned into ice, including the outside of the bucket.
Tie Buping was even simpler. He took out a long knife and used his battle qi to force out the front of the battle qi, which lasted for nearly a minute before canceling it.
I chanted the mantra all the year round and tapped the bucket lightly, and the ice inside and outside the bucket melted immediately.
The person in charge of the caravan was overjoyed. This level has definitely reached the level of junior magicians and junior fighters, which already meets the requirements of the caravan to recruit guards.They are even willing to have apprentices now, especially magician apprentices. Now that a magician who is at least a junior level is automatically sent to the door, there is naturally no reason not to use it.
The person in charge of the caravan agreed with the two that they don't need to guard the caravan all the time, as long as the two can protect the caravan when the caravan needs them.The reward is fifty gold coins, half of which is paid first, and half is paid after arriving at the destination.
This remuneration may not seem much, but in fact it is already more than the listed price, if it is just a soldier, he still can't get so much remuneration.
Huo Leiting's reward was only [-] gold coins, because he also brought a burden, if it weren't for the sake of the eldest lady's surname Huoer, the caravan would not be willing to take her.
A dozen or so slaves helped each other out. They were not qualified to sleep in the house at night. They all slept on the floor of the carport at the back. Among them, a few slaves were unknowingly sick or injured. They walked staggeringly. He collapsed to the ground.
The steward cursed and lashed the slowest slave with a whip.
The slave was supporting a companion, when he was hit by the whip, his whole body fell forward, and both of them fell down at the same time.
The steward stepped forward and kicked them, cursing while kicking: "Damn vegetable people! Dirty and lazy, get up for me! If you don't get up again, sir, I will pull your intestines out of the navel and let you drag them with your intestines." Get in the car!"
The two slaves struggled to get up, but the slaves walking in front did not dare to turn around to help them.
Tie Buping took a step forward, and grasped his hand all at once: "Wait a little longer."
Tie Buping tried his best to calm down his breath, and walked over with Nian Nian to help the two slaves.
One of the two slaves was sick and groggy, and the other looked at Tie Buping in panic. His lips moved a few times, but he didn't even dare to say thank you.
The steward frowned, as if he felt that the two were meddling.
Perennial was about to say some soothing words.
Huo Leiting was waiting for the young lady to get into the car, he also saw what happened here, immediately closed the car door, ran over quickly and said to the steward: "Hey, I said this man, this is your cargo, right?" , Isn’t it a waste to break it like this?”
Huo Leiting blocked the steward while talking, allowing the two perennials to send the two slaves into the slave car.
Seeing that several slaves were seriously injured, Tie Buping took out a few bottles of potions and stuffed them into the hands of the last slave while the steward was out of sight, and said in a low voice, "Give them a dose, it will make their health better."
The slave was taken aback and looked at him hesitantly, but did not hesitate to hide a few bottles of medicine under his buttocks.
Several slaves saw this scene, and they all stared eagerly at the bottles of potions, fearing that others would see them, so they looked away from time to time.
The person in charge of the caravan roared in this direction: "Let's go! What are you dawdling for?"
The steward didn't say anything else, he just whipped the slave carts vigorously a few times, yelled at them to be honest on the road, jumped on the beast riding, and set off with the caravan.
The caravan has its own guards, but most of them are ordinary people who have been trained. They will follow the car, and blow the whistle if they find danger or accident.
As a distinguished magician all the year round, he was also allocated a car.But the caravan has few vacant vehicles. Before they got in all the year round, there were already four people in the car, among them was the eldest lady of Hall's family, and the other three were temporary passengers who took the caravan to the City of Beasts. passenger.Looking at the clothes, it is a middle-class couple with an attendant.
The space in the car was limited, and Hall Thunder consciously sat outside the car, and he also pulled Tie Buping together.
Obviously, he is more gentle and amiable all the year round, but Huo Leiting just thinks that the iron bump with scars on his face is more real, and he is more in tune with him. He talks a lot, so he likes people who are willing to listen to him quietly.
The motorcade rumbled forward, and the middle-class couple chatted with the perennial Miss Hall respectively.
Miss Hall seemed polite, but she was very arrogant and indifferent to others. The lady touched a soft nail and didn't want to talk to her anymore.
On the contrary, her husband, who is about 50 years old, has a lively conversation with her all the year round.
I have learned from this gentleman all the year round that the other party is visiting their son and daughter-in-law in the City of Beasts.They were not originally from the Wanshan Continent. They came to the Wanshan Continent with a caravan 30 years ago when they were young. They saw that the environment here is good. The orcs in Lion City are not very repulsive to outsiders. In addition, they have certain skills. Just stay and settle here.
When their son grew up, he discovered the talent for magic, so he went to Ten Thousand Beasts City, and now he works in the Magicians Guild in Ten Thousand Beasts City. Although he is only a small clerk, the couple are already very satisfied with their son's fortune and life.
Six months ago, the son married his wife. A few days ago, the son sent a letter saying that his wife was pregnant.The couple missed their son very much and worried about their daughter-in-law, so they packed up their things and went to visit them.
All the year round, it can be seen that the couple who are over fifty years old have a very good relationship, and there is love for each other in their eyebrows.And they should be from a good family, which can be seen from their speech and behavior.But the couple are very enthusiastic people, without the indifference and reserve of the nobles.
The lady raised her fan to cover her lips, and through her husband, she whispered to Nian Nian, "Do you know the young lady opposite?"
Chang Nian: "It's not acquaintance, just met. I don't even know her name."
The madam held up her fan and smiled lowly, "She has been secretly looking at you, I'm from here, young man, she likes you very much. If you are also interested in her, I suggest you seize the opportunity along the way."
Covering his mouth all the year round: "Cough! I have a partner."
"Oh." Madam raised her eyebrows, "Sorry, I don't know."
She waved her hand all the year round, saying it was nothing.
After a while, the lady leaned close to her husband's chest again, as if talking to her own husband, but actually covered her face with a fan, and whispered to Nian Nian: "That lady is still peeping at you, I think she really likes you You. If you already have a partner, you'd better make it clear to her that it's fine if you don't provoke her for this kind of lady. If you provoke her, it will be very troublesome. I don't think this lady is gentle and reserved or Generous, you have to be careful."
The lady sat up straight and whispered to her husband.
The half-aged gentleman nodded his wife's nose, as if laughing at her meddling.
The half-old woman in her early fifties laughed like a girl.
I have been envious of the relationship between the two all the year round, and I miss Tie Buping who was dragged outside by Huo Leiting even more, so I couldn't help but open the curtains.
He could feel the young lady peeking at him, but he didn't feel that the other party was looking at her, but that his mental hint to her last night had a different effect, which made the young lady a little afraid of her.
The front of the frame was very crowded, Tie Buping hugged the little milk dragon, Xuanhuang and Crewe squeezed beside him, and Hall Thunder was the driver and was responsible for driving the car.
If it wasn't too crowded in front, it would have come out all year long.
"Wild Beast City is not too far from here. With our current speed, we can get there in about a day and a half plus one night. The more troublesome thing is that tonight, we will probably sleep in the wild. There are only a few small villages along the way. If that undead prince really comes to the Wanshan Continent and wins over the Vegetable Race, tonight will be the most dangerous." Although Huo Leiting said so, his face was very relaxed.
"You don't seem to think that the prince will come to save people?" Tie Buping asked.
Hall Thunder shrugged: "I heard the news that he went to Liberty Island. Besides, if I were him, even if I came to the Wanshan Continent, he would be stupid if so many people wanted to arrest him to receive the reward." Come and rob the caravan."
"Then why is the person in charge of this caravan so uneasy? He seems to be afraid of something." Tie Buping said.
Hall Thunder was vigilant: "You think so too? That guy may have offended someone who shouldn't be offended, or got the wrong goods. He didn't dare to tell the truth, so he used the undead prince as an excuse to find more Guard. In short, we should be careful on the road, and if there is nothing we can do, we will find a way to run first."
"But we agreed to protect the caravan."
There was a little wicked smile on Hall Thunder's face: "So what if we promised? We didn't promise to die for them. Twenty gold coins just want me to work for them, dreaming! Don't be so stupid, you can do as much as you want. If you really work hard for them, they won’t appreciate you. That’s a slave trader with no conscience. If it’s an ordinary businessman with a conscience, it’s okay to help more than the salary. The head of the caravan knows it well, so he The money paid is not high, he just wants us to help them drag out the enemy if something happens, so they can escape."
Tie BuPing thought, if there was no warning from him in the future, he might appreciate Hall Thunder's character very much. This is a person who is not rigid, enthusiastic, funny, seemingly reckless and has his own shrewdness. Can.
"Are there many Vegetable Races in Wanshan Continent?" Tie Buping asked again.
Huo Leiting replied carelessly: "There are quite a few. I heard that the vegetable people live very hard in other continents, so Wanshan mainland has less rejection of the vegetable people. The orcs, dwarves and goblins There is no difference between looking at the vegetable people and looking at other hairless people, and even these three tribes think that the vegetable people are more honest and kind."
"Then do you know that there are relatively concentrated vegetable-human settlements near here?"
"I know, but these people are almost all loaded in the slave cars behind us now." Hall thundered, "The human race outside likes to come to Wanshan Continent to arrest slaves, not only the vegetable catchers, but also the other three. The human race is now more developed than other races, maybe the human race is more productive? The elves are also very powerful, they admire nature and force, and they also like slaves. There are rumors that the human race and the elf race are going to war, but they are unwilling First out of your own tribe, so I plan to buy and train a group of slaves to fight. The cheapest and most useful slaves in Hai'an Star are the vegetable people. In the past, everyone caught and sold the vegetable people in a sneaky way. Since the vegetable people are undead The rumors spread, and now not only the slave merchants are arresting the vegetable people, but even ordinary caravans can't help but attack the vegetable people when they see them."
"The Vegetable Human Race has really become a dish in everyone's eyes." Tie Buping murmured.
Hall Thunder patted him on the shoulder familiarly: "So it is very correct for you to change the color of your eyes."
"What's the situation on Liberty Island?" Tie Buping seemed to be just curious.
Hall Thunder told Tie Buping everything he knew about Liberty Island: "Liberty Island is actually composed of six super-large islands, like a flower with five petals and stamens. Therefore, some people call it Liberty Island. The island is Flower Island. Each of the six islands has an overlord, but the position of the overlord is not constant. There, the island owner will change almost every few decades. It is said that they are islanders who are hard-working, and island owners who are flowing water. At present, the six major forces that control the six islands are..."
Tie Buping is like the best listener, humming from time to time, arousing Hall Thunder's desire to tell more.
"Is Liberty Island not far from Wanshan Continent?"
"Not far away. Compared with other continents, Liberty Island is the closest large area of land to Wanshan Continent." Hall Thunder said suddenly: "I heard my adoptive father mention it. He said that in ancient legends, there There is a huge continent, the Wanshan Continent is the closest to that continent, and if the weather is good, both sides can see each other. But I don’t know when, a large sea area near the Wanshan Continent has become the whole Hai’an Star Ten One of the most dangerous places. The sea area is shrouded in fog all year round. The weather there is unpredictable, the waves are churning, ships will get lost when entering, and high-level transcendents will not find a way out. I heard that the continent is hidden there. In the sea."
While Tie Buping was chatting with Hall Thunder, there was movement in the slave car behind.
The slave who took the potion secretly gave a bottle of potion to his drowsy companion.He couldn't help it anymore, his companion was already too sick to survive, and was kicked twice by the steward, and the situation got worse.He didn't think Ti Buping would harm them, if the other party really wanted to kill them, there was no need for potions at all.
The other slaves looked at those bottles of medicine with envy.
The slave was quite vigilant, he withheld a bottle of potion in his hand, and distributed the other bottles to the wounded or seriously ill slaves.
There are also good and bad, strong and weak among slaves.
But maybe the guards outside were worried about being seen by the guards when they snatched the potion. In the end, the bamboo basket was empty. Except for a bottle of potion which was quickly snatched away by a slave, the other slaves quickly drank the potion given to them.
The powerful slave who grabbed the potion was obviously not injured, but he still opened the potion and drank it.A vicious and selfish look that he can't get, and doesn't want to take advantage of others.
The slave who withdrew a bottle of potion saw his companion's eyelids quivering, and his complexion gradually improved, filled with sadness and joy, and quickly poured the detained bottle of potion for him.
The slave finally opened his eyes, "Uncle Mo..."
"How do you feel?" Uncle Mo almost cried with joy.
The slave sat up slowly, "It's much better, this potion...is very different, it should be a potion."
"Potion?" Uncle Mo was surprised, "But that man gave us several bottles."
No matter how expensive the potion is, you have to buy it with gold coins. A few gold coins are cheap, and dozens of gold coins are ordinary.
If that person gave them potions, these bottles of potions would cost dozens of gold coins even if calculated at the lowest price. What is the other party planning?
"Maybe we have met a good person." The slave said so, his eyes were full of doubts and vigilance.
There was a cuckoo cry, and the slave covered his abdomen, licked his lips and asked, "Uncle Mo, is there anything to eat?"
Uncle Mo shook his head, "There isn't even water, let's wait for them to stop, they want to sell us for money so we won't starve to death. When we get to Wanshou City, they will at least give us something to eat and drink to make us look more energetic. "
The slave sat on the slave cart and nodded very calmly: "I have recovered now, so you don't have to worry, I will find a way."
The recovered slave had a bearded face and looked like he was in his 30s, but his eyes were very young.He leaned back on the slave car and slowly looked around, as if he was looking at the people around him, and he seemed to be looking at the surrounding environment.
After a while, the slave's eyes met those of the tall slave who snatched the potion.
The tall slave showed a ferocious smile, threatening the bearded slave.
The bearded slave smiled and moved towards the tall slave.
"What do you want?" the tall slave shouted.
The bearded slave lowered his voice and said calmly: "This caravan is very rich. They have a lot of valuable goods. Take whatever you want, so you don't have to worry about it in the future. I also saw that they have beautiful rich ladies with them. It doesn't look like it has any fighting power."
"What's none of my business?" The tall slave sneered, his voice lowered.
The bearded slave's voice was lowered: "Originally it wasn't our business, but I overheard something. Do you know why this caravan suddenly hired so many people? Because they stole a small Lion, this little lion is not an ordinary monster. To be correct, he is an orc, but there is some kind of physical problem that prevents him from growing up and turning into a human. His parents hid him to protect him, but This little lion is very naughty, he sneaked out, and it was just a coincidence that he was caught by the hunting team of the caravan hunting the cubs of Warcraft."
The tall slave was surprised, subconsciously sat lower, and moved closer to the bearded slave: "Couldn't that little lion be?"
"It's the only son of the Lord and his wife of the Lion City." The bearded slave's eyes flashed, "The caravan didn't know what treasure they had caught at first, but when they knew it, it was too late, because the little lion was injured by them, and now he is unconscious , if they return the little lion back, the Lord of the Lion City will never let them go, so they can only take the risk and run away with the little lion. I also heard them discussing to kill the little lion, pretending to be undead to attack, But the person in charge of the caravan is very greedy and wants to take the cub out and sell it, such a young and wise cub can be regarded as a rare commodity, and it can make a lot of money if sold to a big noble who is not afraid of orcs."
The tall slave heard this and understood: "If the people of Lion City find that the cub is missing, they will definitely look for it. How can you be sure that they will find the caravan?"
The bearded slave clenched his fists and coughed vaguely, "I want to be free. When I heard about this, I left some traces in that store. I promise that as long as the people of Lion City find that store, they will definitely find the caravan. I'm not afraid of you betraying me, because it's too late to make amends if you say it now, and the people of Lion City will definitely catch up. If you also want freedom and make a lot of money, we will cooperate, which is better than being sold as miners or slaves. Good for war slaves."
The tall slave didn't reply immediately, as if he was thinking about how to maximize his benefits.
The bearded slave gave him time to think, and then looked at the other slaves.This time he picked an older and more prestigious middle-aged slave, and leaned over to talk to him in a low voice.
The tall slave saw that the bearded slave went to find other people, thought again and again, gave up the plan to sell this slave in exchange for benefits, pushed the other slaves away, approached the bearded slave, and asked in a low voice: "Hey, how do you want to cooperate?"
Sitting in the carriage all the year round, he let go of his mental power. He was curious why the head of the caravan was so nervous, and wanted to see what secrets he was hiding. Unexpectedly, he saw and heard a lot when he swept it with mental power. interesting thing.
Especially the slave, the vegetable race rarely sees such a brainy person, the most important thing is to dare to think and do it.
Miss Hall wanted to talk to Niannian several times, but she never found a suitable opportunity.
She still remembers going to Niannian last night to hire her, but unfortunately, Niannian rejected her.
The whole process seemed to be normal, but Miss Hall always felt that something was wrong. Her feeling told her that she was sure to find those two guards, but why did she just accept it after rejecting her all the year round?And what is her reliance?
All the year round, the two of them and the little milk dragon had already had breakfast, packed up their things, and immediately went downstairs with Hall Thunder.
Miss Hall was sitting in the front lobby of the hotel waiting, the caravan at the door was noisy, and the steward waved his whip to urge the slaves to load the car quickly, and when they finished their work, he drove them into the prison car.
Tie Buping looked at the eldest lady.
When the young lady saw the two coming out, her face was very cold, and her whole face was filled with displeasure.
"What happened to her last night?" Tie Buping asked with a mind link.When she came back last night, she hurriedly hugged him and rolled the sheets, leaving him no time to ask what he did to this young lady last night.
I haven't looked at the young lady all year round, and replied nonchalantly: "I didn't do anything, I just gave a little mental hint to make her think that we rejected the request to send her to the port, and at the same time, she will subconsciously ignore it when she sees Gaia in the future." , and will never remember what she saw. Unless someone's spiritual level can surpass me and decipher the hint I gave her."
But it’s not a bragging all the year round. His spiritual power level has reached the holy level, and he is faintly breaking through to the demigod level. How many people in this world can break through his spiritual hints?Even if there is a demigod boss hidden in Hall's family or the Magician's Guild, not to mention whether this young lady has a chance to meet the demigod boss, even if there is a chance, when the big boss finds out that this young lady has been lowered After receiving the spiritual hint, and deciphering it again, knowing what she saw, he would have gone somewhere by then.
In the future, even if the Huoer family wanted to arrest him and the little milk dragon, they would not dare to do so.There are many people in this world who want to hunt dragons, but none of them dare to let the dragon clan know, even demigods.
And as long as he is given time to turn the knowledge he has learned this year into strength, even if he takes the little milk dragon with him in a grand manner, he no longer has to worry about someone making trouble for him.
Hall Thunder ran over and enthusiastically introduced them to the head of the caravan.
Before Tie Buping went out in the morning, he was cast with magic all the year round, only changing the color of his eyes, from pure black to the most common brown.
The people in the caravan had never been in contact with the two of them, and they didn't know that Tie Buping was a vegetable tribe. They were in urgent need of protection.

Hearing the words, the head of the caravan let the two of them show off a little.
I chanted spells all the year round, and with a tap of the magic wand, the water in the bucket used to wash the horses at the door turned into ice, including the outside of the bucket.
Tie Buping was even simpler. He took out a long knife and used his battle qi to force out the front of the battle qi, which lasted for nearly a minute before canceling it.
I chanted the mantra all the year round and tapped the bucket lightly, and the ice inside and outside the bucket melted immediately.
The person in charge of the caravan was overjoyed. This level has definitely reached the level of junior magicians and junior fighters, which already meets the requirements of the caravan to recruit guards.They are even willing to have apprentices now, especially magician apprentices.

Huo Leiting's reward was only [-] gold coins, because he also brought a burden, if it weren't for the sake of the eldest lady's surname Huoer, the caravan would not be willing to take her.
A dozen or so slaves helped each other out. They were not qualified to sleep in the house at night. They all slept on the floor of the carport at the back. Among them, a few slaves were unknowingly sick or injured. They walked staggeringly. He collapsed to the ground.

The two slaves struggled to get up, but the slaves walking in front did not dare to turn around to help them.
Tie Buping took a step forward, and grasped his hand all at once: "Wait a little longer."
Tie Buping tried his best to calm down his breath, and walked over with Nian Nian to help the two slaves.
One of the two slaves was sick and groggy, and the other looked at Tie Buping in panic. His lips moved a few times, but he didn't even dare to say thank you.

The caravan has its own guards, but most of them are ordinary people who have been trained. They will follow the car, and blow the whistle if they find danger or accident.
As a distinguished magician all the year round, he was also allocated a car.But the caravan has few vacant vehicles.

Obviously, he is more gentle and amiable all the year round, but Huo Leiting just thinks that the iron bump with scars on his face is more real, and he is more in tune with him. He talks a lot, so he likes people who are willing to listen to him quietly.
The motorcade rumbled forward, and the middle-class couple chatted with the perennial Miss Hall respectively.
Miss Hall seemed polite, but she was very arrogant and indifferent to others. The lady touched a soft nail and didn't want to talk to her anymore.
On the contrary, her husband, who is about 50 years old, has a lively conversation with her all the year round.
I have learned from this gentleman all the year round that the other party is visiting their son and daughter-in-law in the City of Beasts.They were not originally from the Wanshan Continent. They came to the Wanshan Continent with a caravan 30 years ago when they were young. They saw that the environment here is good. The orcs in Lion City are not very repulsive to outsiders. In addition, they have certain skills. Just stay and settle here.

The lady raised her fan to cover her lips, and through her husband, she whispered to Nian Nian, "Do you know the young lady opposite?"
Chang Nian: "It's not acquaintance, just met. I don't even know her name."
The madam held up her fan and smiled lowly, "She has been secretly looking at you, I'm from here, young man, she likes you very much. If you are also interested in her, I suggest you seize the opportunity along the way."
Covering his mouth all the year round: "Cough! I have a partner."
"Oh." Madam raised her eyebrows, "Sorry, I don't know."
She waved her hand all the year round, saying it was nothing.
After a while, the lady leaned close to her husband's chest again, as if talking to her own husband, but actually covered her face with a fan, and whispered to Nian Nian: "That lady is still peeping at you, I think she really likes you You. If you already have a partner, you'd better make it clear to her that it's fine if you don't provoke her for this kind of lady. If you provoke her, it will be very troublesome. I don't think this lady is gentle and reserved or Generous, you have to be careful."
The lady sat up straight and whispered to her husband.
The half-aged gentleman nodded his wife's nose, as if laughing at her meddling.
The half-old woman in her early fifties laughed like a girl.
I have been envious of the relationship between the two all the year round, and I miss Tie Buping who was dragged outside by Huo Leiting even more, so I couldn't help but open the curtains.
He could feel the young lady peeking at him, but he didn't feel that the other party was looking at her, but that his mental hint to her last night had a different effect, which made the young lady a little afraid of her.
The front of the frame was very crowded, Tie Buping hugged the little milk dragon, Xuanhuang and Crewe squeezed beside him, and Hall Thunder was the driver and was responsible for driving the car.
If it wasn't too crowded in front, it would have come out all year long.
"Wild Beast City is not too far from here. With our current speed, we can get there in about a day and a half plus one night. The more troublesome thing is that tonight, we will probably sleep in the wild. There are only a few small villages along the way. If that undead prince really comes to the Wanshan Continent and wins over the Vegetable Race, tonight will be the most dangerous." Although Huo Leiting said so, his face was very relaxed.
"You don't seem to think that the prince will come to save people?" Tie Buping asked.
Hall Thunder shrugged: "I heard the news that he went to Liberty Island. Besides, if I were him, even if I came to the Wanshan Continent, he would be stupid if so many people wanted to arrest him to receive the reward." Come and rob the caravan."
"Then why is the person in charge of this caravan so uneasy? He seems to be afraid of something." Tie Buping said.
Hall Thunder was vigilant: "You think so too? That guy may have offended someone who shouldn't be offended, or got the wrong goods. He didn't dare to tell the truth, so he used the undead prince as an excuse to find more Guard. In short, we should be careful on the road, and if there is nothing we can do, we will find a way to run first."
"But we agreed to protect the caravan."
There was a little wicked smile on Hall Thunder's face: "So what if we promised? We didn't promise to die for them. Twenty gold coins just want me to work for them, dreaming! Don't be so stupid, you can do as much as you want. If you really work hard for them, they won’t appreciate you. That’s a slave trader with no conscience. If it’s an ordinary businessman with a conscience, it’s okay to help more than the salary. The head of the caravan knows it well, so he The money paid is not high, he just wants us to help them drag out the enemy if something happens, so they can escape."
Tie BuPing thought, if there was no warning from him in the future, he might appreciate Hall Thunder's character very much. This is a person who is not rigid, enthusiastic, funny, seemingly reckless and has his own shrewdness. Can.
"Are there many Vegetable Races in Wanshan Continent?" Tie Buping asked again.
Huo Leiting replied carelessly: "There are quite a few. I heard that the vegetable people live very hard in other continents, so Wanshan mainland has less rejection of the vegetable people. The orcs, dwarves and goblins There is no difference between looking at the vegetable people and looking at other hairless people, and even these three tribes think that the vegetable people are more honest and kind."
"Then do you know that there are relatively concentrated vegetable-human settlements near here?"
"I know, but these people are almost all loaded in the slave cars behind us now." Hall thundered, "The human race outside likes to come to Wanshan Continent to arrest slaves, not only the vegetable catchers, but also the other three. The human race is now more developed than other races, maybe the human race is more productive? The elves are also very powerful, they admire nature and force, and they also like slaves. There are rumors that the human race and the elf race are going to war, but they are unwilling First out of your own tribe, so I plan to buy and train a group of slaves to fight. The cheapest and most useful slaves in Hai'an Star are the vegetable people. In the past, everyone caught and sold the vegetable people in a sneaky way. Since the vegetable people are undead The rumors spread, and now not only the slave merchants are arresting the vegetable people, but even ordinary caravans can't help but attack the vegetable people when they see them."
"The Vegetable Human Race has really become a dish in everyone's eyes." Tie Buping murmured.
Hall Thunder patted him on the shoulder familiarly: "So it is very correct for you to change the color of your eyes."
"What's the situation on Liberty Island?" Tie Buping seemed to be just curious.
Hall Thunder told Tie Buping everything he knew about Liberty Island: "Liberty Island is actually composed of six super-large islands, like a flower with five petals and stamens. Therefore, some people call it Liberty Island. The island is Flower Island. Each of the six islands has an overlord, but the position of the overlord is not constant. There, the island owner will change almost every few decades. It is said that they are islanders who are hard-working, and island owners who are flowing water. At present, the six major forces that control the six islands are..."
Tie Buping is like the best listener, humming from time to time, arousing Hall Thunder's desire to tell more.
"Is Liberty Island not far from Wanshan Continent?"
"Not far away. Compared with other continents, Liberty Island is the closest large area of land to Wanshan Continent." Hall Thunder said suddenly: "I heard my adoptive father mention it. He said that in ancient legends, there There is a huge continent, the Wanshan Continent is the closest to that continent, and if the weather is good, both sides can see each other. But I don’t know when, a large sea area near the Wanshan Continent has become the whole Hai’an Star Ten One of the most dangerous places. The sea area is shrouded in fog all year round. The weather there is unpredictable, the waves are churning, ships will get lost when entering, and high-level transcendents will not find a way out. I heard that the continent is hidden there. In the sea."
While Tie Buping was chatting with Hall Thunder, there was movement in the slave car behind.
The slave who took the potion secretly gave a bottle of potion to his drowsy companion.He couldn't help it anymore, his companion was already too sick to survive, and was kicked twice by the steward, and the situation got worse.He didn't think Ti Buping would harm them, if the other party really wanted to kill them, there was no need for potions at all.
The other slaves looked at those bottles of medicine with envy.
The slave was quite vigilant, he withheld a bottle of potion in his hand, and distributed the other bottles to the wounded or seriously ill slaves.
There are also good and bad, strong and weak among slaves.
But maybe the guards outside were worried about being seen by the guards when they snatched the potion. In the end, the bamboo basket was empty. Except for a bottle of potion which was quickly snatched away by a slave, the other slaves quickly drank the potion given to them.
The powerful slave who grabbed the potion was obviously not injured, but he still opened the potion and drank it.A vicious and selfish look that he can't get, and doesn't want to take advantage of others.
The slave who withdrew a bottle of potion saw his companion's eyelids quivering, and his complexion gradually improved, filled with sadness and joy, and quickly poured the detained bottle of potion for him.
The slave finally opened his eyes, "Uncle Mo..."
"How do you feel?" Uncle Mo almost cried with joy.
The slave sat up slowly, "It's much better, this potion...is very different, it should be a potion."
"Potion?" Uncle Mo was surprised, "But that man gave us several bottles."
No matter how expensive the potion is, you have to buy it with gold coins. A few gold coins are cheap, and dozens of gold coins are ordinary.
If that person gave them potions, these bottles of potions would cost dozens of gold coins even if calculated at the lowest price. What is the other party planning?
"Maybe we have met a good person." The slave said so, his eyes were full of doubts and vigilance.
There was a cuckoo cry, and the slave covered his abdomen, licked his lips and asked, "Uncle Mo, is there anything to eat?"
Uncle Mo shook his head, "There isn't even water, let's wait for them to stop, they want to sell us for money so we won't starve to death. When we get to Wanshou City, they will at least give us something to eat and drink to make us look more energetic. "
The slave sat on the slave cart and nodded very calmly: "I have recovered now, so you don't have to worry, I will find a way."
The recovered slave had a bearded face and looked like he was in his 30s, but his eyes were very young.He leaned back on the slave car and slowly looked around, as if he was looking at the people around him, and he seemed to be looking at the surrounding environment.
After a while, the slave's eyes met those of the tall slave who snatched the potion.
The tall slave showed a ferocious smile, threatening the bearded slave.
The bearded slave smiled and moved towards the tall slave.
"What do you want?" the tall slave shouted.
The bearded slave lowered his voice and said calmly: "This caravan is very rich. They have a lot of valuable goods. Take whatever you want, so you don't have to worry about it in the future. I also saw that they have beautiful rich ladies with them. It doesn't look like it has any fighting power."
"What's none of my business?" The tall slave sneered, his voice lowered.
The bearded slave's voice was lowered: "Originally it wasn't our business, but I overheard something. Do you know why this caravan suddenly hired so many people? Because they stole a small Lion, this little lion is not an ordinary monster. To be correct, he is an orc, but there is some kind of physical problem that prevents him from growing up and turning into a human. His parents hid him to protect him, but This little lion is very naughty, he sneaked out, and it was just a coincidence that he was caught by the hunting team of the caravan hunting the cubs of Warcraft."
The tall slave was surprised, subconsciously sat lower, and moved closer to the bearded slave: "Couldn't that little lion be?"
"It's the only son of the Lord and his wife of the Lion City." The bearded slave's eyes flashed, "The caravan didn't know what treasure they had caught at first, but when they knew it, it was too late, because the little lion was injured by them, and now he is unconscious , if they return the little lion back, the Lord of the Lion City will never let them go, so they can only take the risk and run away with the little lion. I also heard them discussing to kill the little lion, pretending to be undead to attack, But the person in charge of the caravan is very greedy and wants to take the cub out and sell it, such a young and wise cub can be regarded as a rare commodity, and it can make a lot of money if sold to a big noble who is not afraid of orcs."
The tall slave heard this and understood: "If the people of Lion City find that the cub is missing, they will definitely look for it. How can you be sure that they will find the caravan?"
The bearded slave clenched his fists and coughed vaguely, "I want to be free. When I heard about this, I left some traces in that store. I promise that as long as the people of Lion City find that store, they will definitely find the caravan. I'm not afraid of you betraying me, because it's too late to make amends if you say it now, and the people of Lion City will definitely catch up. If you also want freedom and make a lot of money, we will cooperate, which is better than being sold as miners or slaves. Good for war slaves."
The tall slave didn't reply immediately, as if he was thinking about how to maximize his benefits.
The bearded slave gave him time to think, and then looked at the other slaves.This time he picked an older and more prestigious middle-aged slave, and leaned over to talk to him in a low voice.
The tall slave saw that the bearded slave went to find other people, thought again and again, gave up the plan to sell this slave in exchange for benefits, pushed the other slaves away, approached the bearded slave, and asked in a low voice: "Hey, how do you want to cooperate?"
Sitting in the carriage all the year round, he let go of his mental power. He was curious why the head of the caravan was so nervous, and wanted to see what secrets he was hiding. Unexpectedly, he saw and heard a lot when he swept it with mental power. interesting thing.
Especially the slave, the vegetable race rarely sees such a brainy person, the most important thing is to dare to think and do it.
Miss Hall wanted to talk to Niannian several times, but she never found a suitable opportunity.
She still remembers going to Niannian last night to hire her, but unfortunately, Niannian rejected her.
The whole process seemed to be normal, but Miss Hall always felt that something was wrong. Her feeling told her that she was sure to find those two guards, but why did she just accept it after rejecting her all the year round?And what is her reliance?
