In the early morning, the howling of wolves gradually faded away, and many of the guards who had been up all night secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The long-term mental stress had put a huge burden on their physical strength, and the merchants decided to rest for the whole morning to relieve the fatigue of the caravan.

"How is that possible?" Xia Ge frowned. He was squatting by a stream not far from the camp. Even though he used the heaven and earth as a furnace many times, he didn't synthesize much gold. On the contrary, the reward for sweating on his forehead was just a few scattered golden stars.

"Soybeans".

Since there were no gold mines around, he couldn't refine it and had to synthesize it, but the synthesis was more laborious than he imagined.

Esdeath stood quietly on the bank holding a spear like a sculpture. Suddenly a black shadow flashed in the stream. She sent the spear out with her wrist, and the tip of the spear accurately hit a half-foot-large small snake.

fish,

Hagar had no choice but to accept the reality. He held the ground with both hands, and the blazing high temperature continued to be transmitted underground, simulating the process of volcanic eruption to form magma. Because the scale was small, there was not much movement under the blockade of the thunder pool. With enough

After using silica, he began to use Yanling to synthesize agate.

Esdeath threw the wooden spear aside boredly. The stream in this section had begun to boil, and there were many dead fish floating on the water.

It's still cooked, it can be said to be done in one step.

After a while, Hagar obtained a piece of agate rough stone the size of a human head, with a transparent dark red color on it.

The value of agate lies in its pictogram. He deliberately shaped it to look like a northern prairie wolf. Considering what happened to the caravan last night, there might be a background legend left behind to increase the added value.

"Let's go." Xia Ge hugged Agate and left.

Esdeath picked up her harvest and followed him. Waste of food was not allowed for hunters, and she was not in the mood to take a bath. The stream water at this time of year would only waste heat.

At the camp, the middle-aged man was pacing anxiously next to the carriage. When he came to deliver the dried meat, he found that the two of them were no longer there. However, it was clear that they had not yet reached the agreed destination. It was not as if the other party had not foreseen the possibility of a huge danger and escaped in advance.

"What are you doing?" Hagar and Esdeath appeared behind him, their footsteps undetectable.

"I'm here to deliver the dried meat for the morning." The middle-aged man was startled at first, then said with a wry smile after seeing who was coming.

"I haven't asked your name yet."

"Ryder, what are your orders, sir?" Ryder replied politely. As a businessman on the civilian supply line from Beijun to the border, he has extensive experience and understands the importance of the Teigu user.

He directly served the governor of Beijun and was considered one of the governor's pockets.

"Use this to exchange for a house in Bei County. If you have any extra, you can settle it with currency."

The guard behind Ryder took the wolf-shaped agate arm and shook it hard. This thing was much heavier than it looked.

A hint of hidden greed flashed in Ryder's eyes, but it quickly disappeared without a trace. It's not that this agate is worthless. With its vivid appearance, he can help the prefect wash it away with just a little fabrication.

A small half-empty account.

But the most valuable thing is the man in front of him. As long as he can convince a Teigu user to join the Taishou Mansion, he will definitely be one step closer.

"I will definitely give you a satisfactory result." Ryder said forcefully. Only when interests are involved can the relationship develop better. He gave him wine and meat just to have the opportunity to be introduced.

"Can."

Ryder was slightly stunned, and the other party's words were a little jumpy.

Hagar scratched his cheek and said, "We just don't have anywhere to go."

He only has the label of Teigu user on his body now. It is not difficult to understand what the other party wants. From those armors, it can be seen that the merchant has something. The end point of this journey involving the border is North County, and the owner behind Ryder is nothing more than that.

several.

Besides, the attitude of ordinary businessmen towards the Teigu user should be one of awe, this guy is a bit too explicit.

Ryder lowered his head, not wanting the other party to see his gaffe, and cold sweat slipped from his forehead.

"A wealthy family or a prefect?"

"Prefect."

"Then you get busy first."

"yes."

Ryder left with stiff steps.

Esdeath squatted beside the carriage and stroked the hare left last night, then stabbed the hare in the back of the neck with one finger, killing it instantly.

In order to prevent excrement from contaminating the meat, she wanted to give the hare the illusion of survival.

"The haystacks in the back of the truck are full of guns and arrows."

Xia Ge nodded, otherwise why would he go with this caravan? It probably contained military equipment circulated from the border. It was nothing more than an addition to the losses reported by the quartermaster. The prefect sold it to other forces at a high price. The supplies on the border supply line

The caravans are probably all without exception. They are all members of this interest group, slowly sucking blood from the empire's finances.

But this had nothing to do with them, so Hagar just nodded to indicate that he understood.

"Add some chili pepper." Hagar threw a small bottle to her and turned around and entered the carriage.

Esdeath took out a flint from her breast and started a fire, skinned and deboned the hare, and then put a bowl of solidified ointment on the fire to roast.

While waiting, she looked at the small bottle in her hand. It contained red powder with a very pungent taste.

Considering that there was no need for Hagar to poison, she dipped her finger in it and put it into her mouth, then frowned involuntarily.

…

More than ten days later, the caravan arrived at Beijun. This is a majestic giant city. Even among the three counties of the Northern Road, it is the core one. The city walls are thick and simple, with scratches from sharp weapons and fire marks on them.

Scorched Black, in history, the foreign ethnic groups in the north have only been here at most, and then they were blocked by it.

The number of people in the caravan was obviously reduced, and people kept leaving in the towns along the way. The only outsiders left were probably the two of them, Shag.

"Sir, the governor hopes that you can attend his dinner party tomorrow." Ryder said respectfully. As early as the day Hagar agreed, he had already sent people to return to the governor's mansion to report the situation. Tomorrow was also set to repair the Teigu user.

time.

"Okay, but I have to buy some clothes for my sister first." Hagar said with a smile.

Do you want the reminder to be more obvious? Money! House!

Ryder slapped his head, and then said apologetically: "Your accommodation has been arranged, and the remaining gold coins are also in the mansion."

"It's time to work."

"Don't dare."

Ryder asked his deputy to lead the caravan to hand over the supplies, and he took Shagar and the two of them into the North County City.

The streets are wide and bustling with people. There are old people begging listlessly and basking in the sun on the roadside, and there are also noisy children chasing their friends. Young people squat in groups in the corners and watch the hustle and bustle in front of them. Ladies with jewels are holding their hands.

The pet wanders behind the attendant.

"I don't know your name yet."

A cold inquiry came from behind.

"Xia Ge, summer summer, style grid, how about you."

"Esdeath, Esdeath of the Baluts tribe."
