Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland
Chapter 456 Entering the city alone
Silver Shadow's suggestion couldn't be more reasonable. After the envoy leading the pack ox passed the crowd, the others had no intention of following him.
"As long as it's not Silver Shadow, it should be fine..."
Achi thought for a moment and agreed to the request.
He ordered the city gate to be opened, and a group of guards filed out, forming two teams. Their spears and halberds were like a forest, and the cold light was severe.
As he said, there was another person who brought portable tents, food, grain and wine... to entertain the remaining envoys, as if they were enjoying themselves.
However, judging from the occasional cold light flashing above the battlement archery tower.
Rotten Town never let down its guard.
The envoy who was allowed to enter the city led the tall bull and slowly passed through the guards. Beside him, the broad hooves of the bull stepped on the soft soil, leaving deep footprints that could penetrate with every step. A small puddle emerged.
I don’t know if it’s because the cow is carrying too much cargo.
Or is it so heavy in itself?
The guards around him were amazed.
"If I kill this...how many days can I eat it?"
"You only know how to eat. I think you have a cow's brain - of course such a big cow is used to carry stones!"
A thunderous roar interrupted the whispers, and several people were startled.
But it was the subject of their discussion, and he snorted white air from his nose in dissatisfaction.
"Tie Niu, be obedient."
Ahead, the envoy wearing a bamboo hat pulled the reins in his hand.
In the eyes of the guard, it stands to reason that such a wild and strong bull might be able to topple everyone present if it goes crazy. It is not something that such a person can hold back, but just hearing his scolding , the cow became obedient again, lowered his head, and followed silently.
Everyone in Rotten Town knows this.
This should be its owner...the trainer in the mission.
Otherwise, ordinary people would not be able to make such a giant beast so obedient.
The city gate slowly closed behind him.
Lu Meng raised his head, and a trace of white hair that was not completely covered leaked out from under the bamboo hat.
He stroked the iron bull next to him and looked around.
They haven't entered Rotten Town yet, and there is a city wall in front of them, with not too dense but a lot of guards standing on it - this is an urn city.
If it was just a matter of simply breaking through the first city gate.
If the enemy rushes in, they will only be shot to death by random arrows from the crossbowmen guarding the high wall. It can be said that you are catching a turtle in a jar. This city defense is carefully designed.
However, now the gates to the inner city are also open.
Achi came up with his personal guards and was stunned for a moment when he saw Tieniu. Obviously, the impact he felt when he looked down from the city was not as big as it was now.
He didn't dwell too much on the beast. He strode forward and stretched out his hand:
"Welcome...brothers of Shark Village."
When the city lord said this, his tone was obviously sluggish, as if he was not used to it.
I don’t know if I remembered: the people who came with orders from Shark Village in the past were all from the Hound Gang to which they once belonged.
The world has changed now.
"Nice to meet you." Lu Meng shook hands and exchanged a few casual greetings.
He noticed that Achi showed no obvious hostility towards them - perhaps because he did not feel threatened.
It was an embassy that came, not an army.
The leader was Yin Ying, not Cang Cui who had already gained a reputation.
These all illustrate a certain attitude.
In addition, there was only one person entering the city... it was even more unlikely to pose a threat.
--usually.
However, Lu Meng secretly observed around and found that the mysterious man who had interrupted on the city wall did not appear in Wengcheng at this moment.
"Brother is so young and is valued by the king of the swamp..." Achi was originally worried, but now he took a closer look at the envoy. He was a little surprised at the moment, "The future is limitless."
It's not all polite.
People who are on a mission are not simply running errands to deliver messages, especially those who are going to sensitive areas like Rotten Town.
They also shoulder the burden of lobbying and diplomacy.
What kind of agreement can be reached depends entirely on their operation... In addition, to a certain extent, the envoys are also representatives of the king of the swamp outside.
In order not to tarnish his image, even an ordinary envoy must have been carefully selected.
Lu Meng waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to say more.
"I'm just here to send you some warmth... It's an honor to come to Rotten Town."
Ah Chi nodded and stopped asking further questions.
After all, the leader of the team this time is Yin Ying, an affairs officer in charge of Ni Town. Even if he does not have military power, this amount is somewhat excessive for an envoy.
Other people are not worthy of his entanglement.
"Boss, it is indeed medicine and fuel..." On one side, a guard reported.
Several strong rotten townsfolk gathered around the iron bull, unloading the goods there, and every time a piece was dismantled, there were guards holding swords to inspect it.
Tieniu was lying on the ground, looking idle.
What it carries.
What Yin Ying said is correct.
"...You have your heart." Achi was silent for a moment and could only say this.
Fuel is secondary, but medicine is a life-saving thing.
The environment in Rotten Town was originally harsh, and the symptoms of illness, fever, injuries and infections were much more serious than in other places; it only improved after the Hound Gang became the overlord and favored the resources of their hometown.
Now that the Hound Gang has been destroyed, less than a few months have passed, and Rotten Town has almost returned to its past days.
However, the things were sent by these people... It's a lot to be able to fully load such a strong pack ox.
"The situation in the swamp is different now." Lu Meng didn't say much.
When the Double Blade Group controlled the medical resources, they were not used properly. Now under the leadership of Dr. Zhong, the medical department has made new progress.
It's just that there is no need to tell the other party.
"Well..." As expected, A Chi didn't pay much attention to Lu Meng's words. No matter what, he knew that this was an act of buying people's hearts. But knowing this, he still had to accept the gift.
"I know your intentions," he changed his words, "but Lord Yinying, we really can't let him enter the city... I'm sorry I can't tell you the specific reason."
A Chi hesitated for a moment, and just said: "You can go back and tell Yinying about this, no, it's better to tell the king of the swamp."
If it's really as the rumors say.
After listening to this, Lu Beiyou should be able to understand the situation they are facing in Rotten Town.
"Okay," Lu Meng nodded, "I know." Hearing this, A Chi subconsciously relaxed a lot, as if he had taken a reassurance pill.
Just as he was about to turn around, he heard the envoy say:
"But before that, I still want to go into the city first and have a detailed talk with City Lord Chi."
"Silver Shadow can't go in, I wonder... can I?"
