Chapter 92 Insect Whisperer, the greedy and corrupt southern Xinjiang army
"Bulma, how did you find out that the demon wolf was approaching two days ago?"
"ah?"
The night is dark and the bonfire is bright.
Li Guanqi suddenly approached the girl Bulma, bent down to speak, and his warm breath directly touched Bulma's earlobe. Such a close distance and such intimate contact immediately made this simple southern Xinjiang girl feel hot in the face.
For a moment, I couldn't tell whether it was the blush or the blush of the bonfire girl.
"Uh...sorry."
Only then did Li Guanqi realize that he was too close.
"No, no, I just...just..."
Bulma kneaded the hem of his clothes with both hands, a tangled look on his face, and finally bit his lip and shook his head, "What I can't say, Wu Mo told me not to tell anyone else."
"Um?"
Li Guanqi was stunned, "It's a secret."
"Sorry, I was offended."
He smiled apologetically, then turned around and walked into the tent, assuming a sleeping position while secretly breathing and practicing.
The next day.
Everyone set off again.
After traveling for several days, Li Guanqi followed the Green Teeth Mercenary Group and returned to the southern Xinjiang tribe, or rather the southern Xinjiang small town.
From Bulma's mouth, he also learned the name of this place.
Maoye City.
A small town located in the border area of Southern Xinjiang is very small. It is really an insignificant town. It can even be said to be a small tribe in Southern Xinjiang with a short city wall.
By the way, Li Guanqi looked at the map Bulma gave him and discovered that Maoye City was actually not far away from the place where Wei Mo lived in seclusion.
It seems that the content of the next few dungeons will all be mixed in southern Xinjiang.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, several armored soldiers guarding the gate of Maoye City came forward with their halberds drawn, stopping Wu Mo and others.
"Master Jun, what are you doing?"
Wumo smiled at the leading soldier captain.
At the same time, a vague solemnity flashed in his eyes.
This guy...he doesn't know him.
Maoye City is such a big place, and he has seen every soldier, but he has never seen this soldier captain and his soldiers.
Newcomer?
"The old and new Lords of Maoye City are changing!"
The soldier captain said proudly: "The old city lord abdicated and returned to his hometown. The current new city lord is Lord Nanxiu!"
"New city lord, there are new rules!"
"New law released."
The soldier captain looked at Wu Mo and smiled sadly, "Everyone who enters Maoye City needs to pay a customs duty of 1,000 gold coins!"
"Are you kidding?!"
Noya, another girl in the Green Teeth Mercenary Group, suddenly stared, "1,000 gold coins?! This is enough for me to eat for two months!"
Li Guanqi also frowned.
The currency of this strange world is basically gold coins.
Of course, what is called "gold" is actually just a yellow metal product.
Gold coins made of this yellow metal are the basic currency circulated in countries all over the world.
According to the market situation in this world, 1 gold coin can buy 1 bun, which is roughly equivalent to 1 yuan over there.
so.
You have to pay a thousand yuan in customs duties to enter a city?!
This is so fucking outrageous...
"Master Jun, I'm new to you. Did you move here with the new city lord?"
With a smile on his face, Wumo took out a small stack of money bills from his arms and placed them directly in the hands of the soldier captain.
Just a small stack of tickets that can be used to withdraw gold coins at the bank is worth at least more than a thousand gold coins.
"Hehe, you're a pretty good boy."
The soldier captain accepted the money ticket, smiled, and then looked at the surrounding soldiers guarding the city with a look of embarrassment on his face, "But brother, I still have so many brothers waiting to eat."
"Haha, this is natural."
Wu Mo still had a smile on his face, and took out another small stack of money bills and handed it out, which was more than a thousand gold coins.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The soldier captain raised his head and laughed while holding the money note, "What's your name? I remember you!"
"I'm Wu Mo, the leader of the Green Teeth Mercenary Group. I will need your military master to take care of you in the future."
Wumo lowered his head and smiled.
"no problem!"
The soldier captain waved his hand and said, "The city lord has ordered that those who have contributed to southern Xinjiang can be given tax reductions. Those of you mercenary groups who often hunt monsters can also be considered as eliminating harm for the people. Let's do this. You don't need 1,000 gold coins per person."
Yes, just 100 pieces per person!"
"Thank you, Master Jun."
Wu Mo handed over 6 money tickets again and paid for Li Guanqi.
"Let's go, let's go."
The soldier captain took the money with a smile, and the soldiers behind him also gave way.
Only then did everyone continue to march towards the city gate.
Li Guanqi followed Wu Mo with an expressionless face.
Where did the 1,000 gold coin tariff come from?
It's obviously 100 gold coins.
It's just that these soldiers are sitting on the ground raising prices. If they don't comply, they will be punished for various crimes. If they want to add crimes, are they still in trouble?
Wu Mo bribed him with more than three thousand gold coins, and also gained the familiarity of the soldiers guarding the city.
If not.
For six people, that's 6,000 gold coins.
The atmosphere in southern Xinjiang is so bad!
"Wu Mo, I will find a way to pay you back."
Li Guanqi walked to Wu Mo.
"Haha, forget it."
Wu Mo smiled and waved his hand, "It's just a hundred gold coins. Let's just make a friend. After all, Mr. Li, you are my first foreign friend..."
"Uu——"
Suddenly, a group of cavalry roared through the city. The leader of the cavalry captain suddenly reined in his horse when passing by the Green Fang Mercenary Group. The front hooves of the war horse were raised high, and a huge shadow covered everyone.
Li Guanqi looked up and frowned slightly.
This man was wearing iron armor and had two scars on his handsome face, adding to his evil aura.
[One yuan level different blood warrior]
"Bulma?"
The cavalry captain grabbed the reins and looked at the girl Bulma with excitement, as if he was overjoyed to meet an old friend he hadn't seen for many years, or maybe it was even deeper, like he was a childhood sweetheart he hadn't seen for many years?
"Um?!"
But after seeing him, Bulma's expression changed drastically and she subconsciously looked at Li Guanqi.
Li Guanqi's eyes collided with hers for an instant.
Bulma finally hid behind Umo.
"Long time no see, Bulma."
The cavalry captain got off his horse and walked straight towards Bulma, with a smile on his face, "You know what? I thought you were dead, but I didn't expect you to be alive. Do you know how much I have missed you over the years? You...
"
"Hey."
Wu Mo blocked his way and said with a smile: "Hello, Master Jun."
"Go away."
The cavalry captain's eyes were cold, "Do you know who I am? The cavalry captain under Nanxiu City Lord, a one-level Gu God warrior, Ku Bo, if you don't want to die, get out of here!"
Wu Mo smiled, but did not give in even a step.
"bass--"
Kubo immediately pulled out the long sword from his waist, and the blade shone coldly in the sunlight.
But then, the cavalry captain seemed to suddenly remember something. He put his sword back into its scabbard and smiled at Bulma who was behind Wu Mo. "Buma, I'll come back to you another day. We are childhood sweethearts and we dated each other since childhood."
Even if my uncle and aunt are no longer here, don’t worry, I will recognize the engagement you made."
"I will take good care of you."
"drive!"
After that, Kubo got on his horse and walked away with more than a dozen cavalrymen under his command.
