Chapter 416 [Enemies meet on a narrow road (Part 2)]
Du Wei stared at the caravan leader for a long time. He nodded solemnly, walked to him, patted his shoulder, and said solemnly: "Thank you! Believe me, your efforts will be rewarded!"
Because of your efforts, the borders of the empire will be more stable!"
After a pause, Du Wei smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will help you solve the problem of those horse thieves. Just lead the people and continue on their way... However, since your identity has been exposed, then continue to use this
It is no longer necessary to use a caravan to hide your identity. I suggest you just leave the caravan and leave these goods alone. You can ride on your horse and deliver the letter as soon as possible to complete your mission!"
After saying that, Du Wei and Qiao Qiao walked out of the tent, and the caravan leader walked to the door. At Du Wei's request, in order not to expose Du Wei's identity, the caravan leader did not give a big gift.
Du Wei found Toya who was guarding outside again, and said seriously: "Mr. Toya! You Desert Foxes, are you willing to do a small favor for the Tulip family?"
Toya looked overjoyed. Being able to hook up with the most powerful Tulip family in the northwest was a dream come true for a medium-sized mercenary group like the small Desert Fox! He nodded quickly.
"Very good!" Du Wei made a promise to Toya: "Mr. Toya, I will give you a task. If you can handle it well, then after this task is completed, you can go directly to Loulan
Go to the Tulip Duke's Palace in the city to find Mr. Philippe... Do you know who Mr. Philippe is, right?"
Toya couldn't help but murmur in his heart: Philip...the most trusted person around Duke Tulip, the political chief of the Tulip family, who doesn't know about the northwest region? He nodded quickly: "Of course I know!"
Du Wei smiled slightly: "The thing I entrust you with is that you select a dozen of the best people from among the men Li brought this time! Then protect the caravan leader alone, leave the caravan group, and go
Where he is going! If he encounters a dangerous situation, he must be protected no matter what, do you understand?"
Toya nodded and couldn't help but ask: "Then this caravan..."
"You don't need to worry about the caravan. You just need to protect the leader. Even if you have completed my commission excellently. As long as this matter is done beautifully, then Mr. Toya, please tell the members of your group
Mr. Chang, from now on, you, the Desert Fox, will win the sincere friendship of the Tulip Family, and in the northwest region, within the Tulip Family’s sphere of influence, you, the Desert Fox, will enjoy the same preferential treatment as the ‘Snow Wolf Mercenary Group’!”
After hearing this, Toya couldn't help but feel happy!
The same preferential treatment conditions as the Snow Wolf Mercenary Group! With the support of the Tulip Family, the Desert Fox will become the top mercenary organization in the northwest region and it will be just around the corner!!
Seeing Toya's excited and surprised look, Du Wei added: "Remember, this matter is a secret. Don't make it public! Tonight, you will take the selected people and follow this caravan immediately.
Leader, please leave the main force and hit the road!"
Toya quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart. He turned around and left, going down to select people.
Soon, Toya selected twenty of his most trusted and most skilled subordinates. Duwei asked him to lead people to find the caravan leader and set off overnight.
As for the thirty mercenaries left in the caravan, Du Wei suddenly thought of a new idea!!
Calling the thirty mercenaries in front of him, Du Wei took out thirty "purple crystals" of various sizes from his arms, and gave each of them a small piece. Then he looked at these people with a smile: "Everyone
, the task of protecting this caravan ends here! I have given your reward to Mr. Toya. And these amethysts given to you are additional rewards from me. But in exchange
, I give you a new task!"
Du Wei's smile was a little sinister at this moment. He pointed at the purple crystal in everyone's hands and said with a smile: "Now, everyone, everyone chooses a direction. It is best that everyone's directions should not be the same or overlap. And what I give to you is
The task is... to choose your direction. Then each person has a horse. Bring food and water, and move forward as fast as possible. I ask you to walk for at least two days! Then, your task will be considered
You can go home now! Anyone who completes the task, after returning to Desa Province, can go to the Loulan City Palace and receive one hundred gold coins each!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar. These mercenaries looked at me and I looked at you. There was a look of surprise on everyone's face.
Du Wei said slowly: "I know that it is dangerous for a person to walk alone in the desert for two days! But I believe that you are all experienced mercenaries, and you will not walk through this desert once or twice.
. If anyone is unwilling to do such a task, you can quit now. But if you choose to do it... I also want to remind everyone, if you get lost or starve to death in the desert, don't resent me.
!”
The mercenaries laughed loudly, and someone immediately shouted: "Sir, we are all experienced! This desert seems dangerous to outsiders, but we don't know how many times we have walked there! Even if it is closed
You won’t get lost even if you close your eyes!”
"That's right! As a mercenary whose destiny is adventure, it would be a shame if he got lost and died on the adventurous road! Hahahaha..."
Qiao Qiao, who was standing next to him, saw this, and of course he understood Du Wei's intention in doing this, and couldn't help but secretly sigh at Du Wei's insidiousness...
I’ve already used a thousand deceptions, isn’t that enough?
Du Wei winked at Qiao Qiao and whispered: "I'm afraid that dead demon will soon see through our trick and chase him northwest! When the time comes, there will be so many enchantment formations for him here again.
Let him find it slowly... The more time he wastes, the more chance we have of escaping."
Soon, these mercenaries accepted Du Wei's benefits and left on horseback.
Seeing the departure of a large number of mercenaries, even the leader of the caravan left overnight. The remaining people in the caravan were told that everyone should follow the order of Mr. "Harry Potter".
Mr. Lipport can just go.
After all, this strange order was announced by the leader of the caravan. Although the following people were confused, they did not raise too many questions.
As for the safety of all the mercenaries leaving...don't be kidding! Didn't you see this beautiful lady in white? With her here, do you still have to worry about horse thieves? She alone is more powerful than all the mercenaries before.
I feel stronger now.
After all the people who should leave had left, Du Wei immediately became the temporary leader of the caravan. He ordered everyone to continue to rest. As for those horse thieves, Du Wei showed no mercy!
None of these bandits in the desert deserved to die for their crimes. Du Wei mercilessly ordered them all to be buried in the sand!
This bloody trick made no one in the caravan dare to question the identity of Duweidi's leader.
Occupying the original caravan leader's big tent alone, Du Wei had someone light a fire outside, and he and Qiao Qiao sat next to each other.
"Guess, after the horse thieves who escaped tonight report, when will those guys come after them again?" Qiao Qiao asked Du Wei with a smile.
Du Wei laughed. He lay on the ground with his head in his arms and looked up at the stars: "I don't care. They are just a group of horse thieves. In the final analysis, they are just a mob. Even if those prisoners have tough mouths, how can they say that their big leader is a very good person?
What a powerful guy... Hmm. How powerful can a leader of horse thieves be? I hope they arrive soon. After we deal with these guys, we can get on the road and leave as soon as possible."
Du Wei and Qiao Qiao are both relaxed.
Indeed. How powerful can a leader of horse thieves be? With the strength of Qiaoqiao's eighth-level warrior and Du Wei, who is also quite skilled, looking at the mainland, as long as he does not encounter a strong person of the holy level, that is
There is absolutely nothing to worry about.
You know, even the Grand Knight Commander of the Holy Knights of the Temple of Light is only at level eight!
A bandit leader?
Du Wei didn't take it seriously.
"I'm more interested now, but that dead demon... Hehe. I wonder what his expression would be like when he saw the more than a thousand magic inductions we left... Hahahahahaha..."
Du Wei smiled happily. Qiao Qiao, who was next to him, quietly leaned over and lay beside Du Wei. The two of them looked at the starry sky together.
At night in the desert, the sky seems to be filled with stars that are exceptionally bright.
"Tell me, is that dead shemale now looking helplessly at the stars and sulking?" Du Wei chuckled.
Qiaoqiao moved her body closer to Du Wei, and whispered in a soft voice: "Don't worry about that guy... Du Wei, I think this..."
She seemed to hesitate for a moment, then she mustered up the courage and said softly: "It's great to lie down with you and watch the stars like this. As long as I can always be with you like this, I don't care even if I continue to be hunted like this.
Already..."
At the end of the sentence, my voice trembled slightly, as if my heart was trembling slightly...
Although Du Wei was silent and didn't answer anything, but in this situation, under the starry sky, a beautiful girl next to you is confiding her heart to you. I'm afraid there are very few men in the world who won't be tempted by such a wonderful scene.
Bar?
At least, Du Wei had helplessly felt that the ice in his heart that had been resisting seemed to be melting unknowingly...
Unknowingly, a faint feeling seemed to have quietly penetrated into the air...
I don’t know how long it took, but just when both of them seemed to be in a trance, finally, from the darkness, a voice that made Du Wei’s heart beat came out!
This voice is harsh and unpleasant, full of soaring resentment. When it falls into people's ears, it seems to be filled with infinite malice!
"Huh, I thought who ruined my good deeds! Turns out it was you!"
Following this voice, a dark figure slowly and silently walked out from the dark corner next to it!
This person arrived quietly without making any movement! Even strong men like Du Wei and Qiao Qiao didn't even notice it in advance!!!
And when Du Wei heard this voice, his heart immediately sank to the bottom of his heart!
Damn! God! I can’t be so unlucky, right?!!
He's just a leader of horse thieves! How could he attract this evil star?!
Du Wei didn't look at all leisurely, but all the hairs on his body suddenly stood up. He jumped up suddenly, widened his eyes, and stared at the person standing in the darkness! And Qiao Qiao seemed to be attracted by the other person.
Frightened by this murderous aura, I couldn't help but tense up and stare at this guy.
Little by little, this man came out of the shadows and finally revealed his true colors.
He is not tall, and can even be said to be very short. But such a person exudes a dark and terrifying aura all over his body. His eyes are staring at Du Wei closely, with an evil smile at the corner of his mouth.
"It's been a long time, Duke Tulip! I'm so surprised to see you here!"
There was endless hatred in this voice. After hearing this, Du Wei could only force a smile, but even he himself knew how ugly his smile was now!
However, he still took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, it has been a long time indeed... Your Excellency, Commander of the Lugao Army... Ah, now I should call you, Mr. Chishui Duan!!"
