The man following him was of medium build, and his face was covered with wrinkles like knives and axes, which made an impression on people.
Yuwen Zhouyuan stood up and said with a smile: "Hello! Please come and sit down. Are you a businessman?"
Dexingda did not expect that Yuwen Zhouyuan would be so polite to a stranger, and thought: "Such businessmen are everywhere, why should seniors be so polite?"
The fat man said with a smile: "Let me introduce myself first. Haha, my name is Gong Weilin. I am the liaison person recommended by several small caravans. I'm sorry, because there are not enough people to cross the Tongtian Gobi, so everyone will
Let me find some more people to come. I have been waiting for a long time and I only saw a few of you here. Haha, I want to ask you if you want a companion?" He said as he sat down.
Dexingda asked: "There seems to be very little business recently. Do you know what happened?"
The fat on Gong Weilin's face trembled, and he sighed: "Oh! Brother, the road is not smooth. Some strange things have been happening during this period. In some caravans, the entire team has disappeared, and there are no clues.
No, I can’t figure out why. Many large caravans are unable to stop, and some simply go out of business. Those of us who run small businesses will have a hard time. If the goods we receive cannot be transported to the ground, then it will be very difficult.
I'm going to lose my life, so I have to bite the bullet and keep going."
Yuwen Zhouyuan smiled and said: "We have just arrived, let's see the situation first before talking."
Muhuali suddenly said: "Many people came to the gate of the village."
Yuwen Zhouyuan had already heard it and said: "There are many..."
Gong Weilin asked in confusion: "How do you know there are many people coming?" He turned to look at the gate of the village and exclaimed in surprise: "This is a big caravan! Great!"
Muhuali said: "This doesn't look like a caravan. Look, there are silver rhinoceros beasts. It's an army."
Gong Weilin jumped up and said in surprise: "Why is there an army at this time? Hey, it is still a large caravan, and there are not many people in the army."
I saw dozens of carts pulled by flower rhinoceros rumble along the street. In front of them was a small group of silver rhinoceros, with about twenty or fifty riders, and a large number of black rhinoceros followed closely behind the cart.
beast.
Palace Guard Lin shouted happily: "Great! This is a caravan of a thousand people, now we can leave."
Ju'an Village suddenly became lively, and the noisy crowd split into the empty houses on the street. Some people shouted at the animals and directed the convoy to enter the parking lot for large vehicles.
The large group of black rhino beasts passed by, followed by many small groups of traders, who also dispersed to look for empty rooms. The village that was quiet just now has become very noisy.
Yuwen Zhouyuan took a look and saw that there were no monks in the entire caravan, and all the guards were innate warriors! Of course, among these innate warriors there are also masters whose strength is comparable to that of a real person!
Yuwen Zhouyuan said: "Good guy, this is really messed up. Gong Weilin, you don't have to worry. Go contact them and let's go together. Haha, we have to see again."
Palace guard Lin smiled and said: "Okay, I'll go find them to discuss it. Little brother, let's go together. Don't wait. I've been waiting here for a long time. It's not easy to have such a caravan and opportunity.
If you miss it, it's too late to regret it. I'll let you know when I'm leaving." He seemed very enthusiastic and insisted that Yuwen Zhouyuan and the others go with him.
Yuwenzhou Yuan was originally planning to leave immediately after Mu Huali came back from inquiring about the news. Seeing Gong Weilin's enthusiasm, he was a little embarrassed to refuse him.
Dexing Daye said: "Senior, let's go with the caravan. Having more people can save a lot of trouble. If there are small groups of monsters on the road, they won't dare to attack. What do you think?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan smiled and said: "Okay, then please go and tell Gong Weilin and let's go together."
Gong Weilin said goodbye with a smile, looking very happy.
Mu Huali smiled and said: "Senior, we can't make it now. The big caravan is moving very slowly, but it's very safe."
Yuwen Zhouyuan said: "Dexingda, how far is it from Qingfeng Kingdom? We have finished our work in Tongtian Gobi, and we have to rush to Tianzhu Peak as soon as possible."
Dexingda said: "After passing the Tongtian Gobi, I knew a shortcut to Tianzhu Peak. Although the road is not easy to walk, it is much closer and the time is enough. After this large caravan arrived at Moqi Zhongzhai
We don’t know where we’re going, so we still need to find out where the praying eagle is. Maybe we’ll have to walk alone after we get to Zhongzhai.”
People have also moved into the adjacent rooms next door. Since all the rooms are surrounded by half wooden walls, Yu Wenzhouyuan and the others can see what is going on in each house.
I saw about ten people pouring into the next room, laughing and talking loudly, dragging luggage and other things "ping ping ping pong", each looking for his own place.
People were coming and going on the street outside the door, and there were still many people who couldn't find an empty room. Seven or eight men looked at Yu Wen Zhouyuan's room and came over. One of the men entered the room and said loudly
: "Hey, friend, is this place full?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan smiled and said: "No, you can come in!"
The man turned around and said, "Brothers, come in!"
Several people crowded in, and the room suddenly seemed crowded. The man shouted: "Zhuzhu, take my luggage with you. I won't allow it if it's messed up."
A short man agreed, dragged two large backpacks into the house, threw them into the corner, and shouted: "Brother Tiedan, try to find something to eat, I'm really hungry."
The man named Tiedan laughed and scolded: "Eat! Eat! Eat! You know how to eat, are you starving to death? Laifu, take out the dried meat from the bag, and Zhuzhu go get some water."
One of the guys lay down on the ground and pulled off the animal skin boots on his feet. Immediately, a strong smell spread out. He just heard the guy say: "Oh, my feet feel so comfortable now...so wet with sweat."
Now, let’s warm ourselves up by the fire, and this brother will give way.”
Yuwen Zhouyuan had held his breath for a long time. Hearing this, he smiled slightly and stepped aside.
The guy sat up and put his feet by the fire pit to roast them. Smoke curled up from his feet, making the smell even worse. He also said, "Sorry, everyone, it's a little smelly, please bear with me."
That’s fine.”
Tiedan cursed: "Salted fish feet! You don't want to let anyone else live anymore. Every time you get to the end of the field, you take off your boots and make people smell like you. It's so fucking annoying."
Salty Fish Feet said with a sad face: "There's nothing I can do about it, my feet are naturally sweaty. Brother Tiedan, can't it be done if I don't bake them?" He retracted his feet and stretched out his hands to rub them vigorously.
Fortunately, the room had half wooden walls, so it was very ventilated and the smell dissipated quickly. While rubbing his feet, Xianyujiao said to Yuwen Zhouyuan: "Brother, I'm sorry, it smells so bad to you, haha, I can't help it...
"
A man next to him said loudly to Yuwen Zhouyuan: "Brother, don't be surprised. This kid is the famous Salted Fish Feet. If Brother Tiedan hadn't taken him in, no caravan would have wanted him. Haha, just call him Salted Fish Feet.
Already."
Xianyujiao was not angry after hearing this, and said with a smile: "Huapizi, don't talk about me, we are brothers. I am Xianyujiao, but you are Huapizi."
Everyone burst into laughter, even the people in the next room laughed.
Yuwen Zhouyuan couldn't help but laugh, and asked: "Well, Xianyujiao, what kind of caravan are you? Why are you traveling with the army?"
Xianyu rubbed his feet with a grin on his face, and put his hand under his nose to smell it. After a while, he said: "We are a large caravan. That group of soldiers also walked with our caravan. The road has not been smooth recently, hehe.
There are not many big caravans like ours. Hey, are you here waiting for company? It’s okay to listen to me, just talk to our brother Tiedan and spend a little money." He looked very good.
It's proud.
Tiedan sat down next to Yuwen Zhouyuan and said with a smile: "Brother, I am the leader of a team of thirty people. There are three of you? Don't worry, follow us to ensure safety."
Dexingda said: "There are five of us in total."
Xianyujiao interjected from the side: "It's okay. Our brother Tiedan is a good man. He has been in and out of the Tongtian Gobi dozens of times. The number of people and goods he has protected can range from one thousand to eight hundred. Little brother, you can follow him with confidence. As long as
It’s great to spend a small amount of money to keep everything safe!”
Laifu took out a small pile of lean meat jerky from the animal skin bag, placed it beside the fire pit, and said loudly: "Come! Eat the jerky! Why hasn't the pillar come over yet? You are so stupid. It takes you a long time to find water. Come on, come on."
Eat."
Xianyujiao reached out and picked up a piece, tore off a piece, threw it into his mouth, chewed it loudly, and said vaguely: "Laifu, this meat has a strange smell, um, it seems to be wet again."
Yuwen Zhouyuan couldn't bear it anymore and said with a smile: "Brother, the meat should be fine."
Xianyujiao raised the dried meat in his hand, handed it to Yuwen Zhouyuan's nose, and said, "Smell it, it does taste a little different."
Yuwen Zhouyuan hurriedly turned his head and said: "Hey, brother, help me, it smells like your salted fish feet!" Everyone burst into laughter.
Salted Fish Feet raised his hand under his nose, sniffed hard, and said with a smile: "It really smells like salted fish feet. Oh, no matter what, I don't feel the taste." He tore off another piece of meat nonchalantly and stuffed it into his mouth.
Yuwen Zhouyuan smiled and said, "You guys eat it, I just ate it."
Yuwen Zhouyuan didn't need to eat anything in the first place, and after seeing the bad way of eating salted fish feet, he wouldn't even touch the dried meat.
In fact, these men did not take Yuwen Zhouyuan and the others seriously. Almost all of the men traveling in the Central Sanctuary were strong and strong. To make a living here, it was impossible without good bones and muscles.
Yuwen Zhouyuan and Mu Huali wore long robes, and both looked weak. Only Dexing had a good figure, with broad shoulders and thick back, thick hands and feet, a machete beside him, and a full beard.
, at first glance he looks like a standard traveling man.
Hua Qirong and Jin Tailei walked in. Hua Qirong said loudly: "Huh? There are so many people, senior, we are back." He looked the most fierce, with a bald head and one eye, and scars on his face.
All the people looked at him in unison.
Except for a few people whom Hua Qirong admired, he ignored everyone else. He came to Yuwen Zhouyuan's side, grabbed Xianyujiao's arm, and said: "This little brother, give way."
Push gently to the side.
The salted fish's feet could not withstand the force, and fell backwards. A mouthful of dried meat was pressed against his throat. He choked and rolled his eyes. Laifu hurriedly stepped forward and patted his back hard, causing him to spit out his throat.
The meat inside screamed: "Hey, you want to kill me, cough!"
