Chapter 211 Unpleasant Transaction
The atmosphere in the village is a bit strange.

Lawrence, who has a keen sense of perception, found that the people in the caravan on the opposite side did not look like ordinary people.

These people were wearing heavy leather armor and clothes, and from a few meters away you could still smell the stench as if they hadn't taken off their clothes for a long time.

Lawrence was very sure that these people slept without taking off their clothes for at least three consecutive days!
This seems normal, but with other manifestations, it is abnormal.

These unfriendly-looking men and women have been staring at me, and some of them have their fingers clenching the weapons they hold, showing a tense attitude that they are ready to take action at any time.

Lawrence took a step back quietly, "There are enough commodities. I like the whale oil and wheat you sent very much."

Lawrence turned and walked towards the group, "Show them our stuff."

Uribe also chose to give up temporarily under Delen's gaze, and said with a smile: "It is very important for us to be able to trade normally. We really need your playing cards and Orunzhi powder."

Lawrence didn't want a fight, and it would be best if a peaceful deal could be made.

"Me too, it's better to have one more friend than one more enemy."

Lawrence released his kindness, and the caravan in front of him was obviously headed by this woman.

Usually this kind of woman would be very powerful, but seeing that she could also negotiate with him normally, Lawrence felt that there was great possibility of cooperation between the two parties.

In order to win this partner, Lawrence took the initiative and said: "Our playing cards are very cheap, you are welcome to come and trade at any time."

"If you can bring more furs and I can sell you more Orrunchi powder, I can give you ten cans instead of the two cans now."

In winter, more furs are needed to survive the winter. It is impossible to rely on sheepskins. There are too many people now. More than 100 people need at least a hundred blankets.

A blanket requires at least two furs, sometimes more.

Linen and chicken feathers and hay were just substitutes, while furs were a necessity.

Not only are bedding required for animal skins, but thick animal skin clothing is also needed for working outside in winter. In addition, there are still many fragile children being born, so the demand for furs is very high.

With more than 30 children born this year, Lawrence has to think more about these children.

Lawrence hoped that this caravan would bring furs, not just to this caravan but to other caravans as well.

Trade orange peels, playing cards, or more for more hides.

Uribe noticed Lawrence's kindness and smiled: "Of course, we don't lack this there. I will bring more furs next time."

Lawrence showed a pleased smile, "To thank you for your kindness, I decided to kill a sheep to entertain you, and invite you to taste our delicacies! Lamb and potato noodles!"

Uribe licked his mouth and said, "I've already eaten. I don't want to eat now. I just want to do something more intense."

Lawrence looked at Uribe in surprise, "What's something more intense?"

Uribe and the men and women around him all smiled.

Their wild expressions made Lawrence feel as if he didn't understand their affairs.

But it doesn’t feel like a bad thing?

Uribe smiled and said: "I have always been looking for a man who can conquer me. As the leader of a caravan, it is not easy, so when I meet men who are stronger than me outside, I always want to compete with them. "

"Mighty prophet, can you challenge me?"

The female warrior next to Uribe shouted: "If you can press the leader to the ground, then you can pull off her clothes and let her give birth to your child!"

Both Uribe and the men and women around him looked at Lawrence with a smile.

Lawrence felt that this might be a barbarian custom. He remembered that the Vakiri had a similar tradition.

"I'm not good at fighting." Lawrence said honestly: "I am the prophet here and I need to stay calm at all times."

Uribe took off the ax from his back and threw it into the distance. He looked at Lawrence with a smile, "Come on, no weapons or shields. Don't you even have the courage to compete with a woman? You weakling!"

The female warriors near Uribe looked at Lawrence with a look of contempt in their eyes.

"Coward!" The female warriors scolded Lawrence passionately.

"Come on! Coward!"

"coward!"

"Eggless boy!"

The men laughed and cheered together.

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

Lawrence squinted his eyes, feeling that something was wrong.

Friesen looked at Lawrence with a smile, "Lawrence, go up and fight her and push her to the ground!"

Uribe raised his hand and said to the subordinates behind him: "Stand back and get out of the way!"

Soon the people around them retreated a few meters, leaving a large open space.

Uribe had no other weapons on his body, even his legs and arms were naked, and he was wearing normal hardwood leather armor.

Lawrence wanted to admit defeat directly, but there was no such option now, so he could only go up and compete.

After feeling like it was just a normal competition, Lawrence considered the future and the importance of maintaining cooperation with this large caravan, and finally nodded.

"Okay, I accept your challenge." Even if you lose, you must lose with some integrity.

After being mentally prepared to be beaten, Lawrence also hoped that he might have a slight chance of winning.

Delenn and Salil are both magical witches outside the norm. Lawrence feels that he can also lift a stone mill weighing more than 100 kilograms. He also insists on exercising every day. Even the [-] kilogram Khalan can also carry it. Come on, it should actually not be weak.

At least hold on for a few rounds before throwing in the towel.

The two sides quickly got close, and after each other was ready, Uribe punched Lawrence directly.

With quick eyesight and quick hands, Lawrence raised his hand and grabbed Uribe's fist, then bent his foot and hit Uribe's stomach.

The knee hit Uribe's stomach, but Uribe had held his breath long ago, and his originally weak abdominal muscles tightened in advance, easily resisting Lawrence's knee.

Uribe's outstretched right fist was blocked, and he clenched his left fist backwards, hitting Lawrence's chin directly with his raised elbow.

Lawrence, who gritted his teeth in advance, did not bite his tongue, but his head was still dizzy and his body took two or three steps back crookedly.

Uribe showed an excited expression, quickly stepped forward and grabbed Lawrence by the collar, then grabbed the other person's body and slammed into him, slamming his strong head against Lawrence's head!
Lawrence was completely unable to adapt to this kind of brutal fighting, and hurriedly grabbed the opponent's forehead with both hands, trying not to collide with the opponent's head.

"Die!" Uribe showed a fierce and cruel smile, raised his foot and hit Lawrence in the crotch.

Lawrence raised his leg to protect his vitals, gritted his teeth and slapped the woman in the face.

Snapped!
Uribe's hands were tightly grasping Lawrence's throat, and he did not let go even after being slapped by Lawrence. The fierce and cruel killing intent in his eyes and face could no longer be concealed.

"die!"

Lawrence's throat was grabbed, and he couldn't shout loudly. At this time, Uribe tripped Lawrence's leg and pressed Lawrence to the ground!
Lawrence worked hard to adjust his posture, from falling backward to falling sideways.

Under Uribe's strong hold, both parties quickly fell to the ground. Uribe sat on Lawrence, using his weight and the strength of his hands to tightly grasp Lawrence's neck and press down.

Lawrence's hands grabbed Uribe's hands and he used all his strength to move her hands.

My body became more and more uncomfortable, my whole body's strength became less and less, and my head turned red due to the large amount of blood gathering.

At the last moment, Lawrence used his mouth and his last strength to spit violently into Uribe's eyes.

Uribe felt something flying over and instinctively tried to block it with his hands.

Lawrence quickly pulled out the dagger hidden in his waist and stabbed Uribe in the throat.

At the last moment, Uribe's hands were still tightly grasping Lawrence's neck, trying to strangle him to death.

But Lawrence's raised arm had already thrust a dagger into her throat.

Like a broken water pipe, Lawrence's body was soon covered in a large amount of blood.

Lawrence stood up and pushed the dead woman away, trying to stand up and look at the incredulous men and women.

"Kill them!"

Next came the battle between the barbarians. Delenn and Salil quickly picked up their axes and rushed out, while the pirates who robbed their homes also quickly rushed up to fight with shields and iron knives.

Lawrence's men quickly joined the fight, as did Friesen and other Pumixiu men.

By the time reinforcements from the village came out, Salil and Delenn had taken care of most of the Valkyries.

The female warrior roared at Lawrence: "The count will not let you go! You killed the count's daughter! All the Valkyries will kill you!"

Lawrence raised the ax he picked up from the ground and walked towards the Valkyrie warrior whose hands were tightly grasped.

"That's why there are so few Valkyrie talents, and they will become less and less."

After the battle, Lawrence found that the battle was a loss. Not only did five people die, Salil was also stabbed in the back by a sneak attack. Fortunately, she was wearing pigskin armor, leaving only one wound on her back. Knife mark.

Friesen and several Pumixiu were also injured. The Valkyrie's combat effectiveness was much higher than that of ordinary bandits, and they seemed to be less afraid of death.

There are more and more elite Valkyries under the earl, and there may also be a few fierce men like Red Beard.

When he thought of this, Lawrence felt like he was even more at a loss in this battle.

"Can't we just do business? Why do we have to fight?" Lawrence stepped on Uribe's head, feeling more irritated than ever before.

Obviously, I could get something in exchange for orange peels and wood, but I paid more lives and got into a lot of trouble.

Lawrence sighed.

Friesen came over and said: "Mr. Lawrence, please let our family live in the mountains. I don't want to be killed by the Valkyrie."

After killing the count's daughter and his men, the Pumixiu people at the foot of the mountain no longer had a foothold.

If he didn't take refuge in the mountains at this time, he might die soon.

Lawrence nodded, "Okay, pack up and go live in the mountains. Just leave a few people here to entertain the caravan."

Trouble makes everyone more united.

Neither Friesen nor the blacksmith in the village could take any chances at this time in front of the Valkyries.

The clothes of the Vakiri were taken off and collected together to be used as winter clothing, while the corpses were buried underground to nourish the earth.

Lawrence had three more wild boars that could be used as mounts, a dozen sheep, and three long-haired oxen to pull the cart.
