Yulian opened his eyes, and the first thing he heard was the sound of rain outside the car. He lowered his head, looking at the two soft, petite carcasses, and could not help smiling a bit bitterly. At the moment, the sisters were like two docile kittens, curled up in his arms, left and right, and after leaving the clothes, the white skin was full of traces left before the "war". The sealed carriage compartment is now full of the unique taste after the love of men and women, which makes Yulian have to reach out and open the ventilation window at the rear of the carriage, accompanied by the cool, fresh air mixed with water, pouring in, That strange taste suddenly faded a lot. And the sudden chill caused the sisters to shrink their bodies subconsciously. They narrowed their eyes, muttered a few times, and then wrapped their bodies tightly with the cape to resist the cold temperature of the outside world.
"It's really two little guys who are not easily satisfied."
Youlian spoke casually, while stroking their hair gently. In the joy of the previous occasion, the sisters sent out a rare enthusiasm. They tried their best to tease and greedy Youlian with greed. It seemed as if all the lost time had to be replenished, and Yulian couldn’t remember how many times it had been fired in the body of the sisters. He even had a hazy memory afterwards, and he couldn’t remember what he was waiting for. When was it exhausted, and finally fell asleep.
However, looking at the traces remaining at the corners of the mouths of the two sisters in front of them, and the peaceful sleep that emerged from their faces, and the tired smile mixed with them, even if there is no definite impression, it is enough to introduce how crazy at the time. Too.
Perhaps it's the reason that it was too long?
Thinking of this, You Lian smiled bitterly, then he sat up and rearranged his clothes, and then he had time to lift the curtains and look out the window.
The sky is still dim, but the rain is smaller than before. Although the sound of rain can still be heard, but compared to the previous bombing, it is now much better. After all, road repairs in this era are not stable, especially on roads such as the Golden Business Road. Although it is not bad near towns, it is very muddy and dangerous in such a central area. Coupled with the effect of the storm, it is easy to make the carriage slip or even overturn. Because of this, most of the businessmen traveling abroad will choose to wait for the weather to get better when they encounter this bad weather.
Thinking of this, Yulian pushed open the cloak beside him, then pushed open the door and walked off the carriage, and happened to see the old steward hiding in the tent not far from the rain. At the moment, he was hiding in the tent, whispering something to the servant, and when he saw that Yulian had stepped off the carriage, the old manager immediately looked awake, and then quickly stood up and walked to Yulian.
"Master, do you have any need?"
"I just came down to see."
Yulian waved his hands and then looked around. At the moment they were standing behind a hill on the edge of the Golden Business Road, with the help of a few sparse trees and slopes to resist the storm. The patrolling mercenaries held crossbows in their hands and watched the surroundings with vigilance. And the carriages that transported the herbs have also formed a circle. Under such heavy rain, the bonfire cannot be born. So in addition to wearing a few leather coats, everyone wraps themselves well to avoid the cold. There is no other way. Of course, they still admire Yulian and others who can sleep leisurely in a carriage-but what about this? The other party is an aristocrat plus two little girls. Whether in terms of identity or reason, you can't let the nominal manager of this chamber of commerce and two petite and cute girls sleep in the same tent as they do.
"How is it going?"
"This rain is a bit heavy."
The old manager shook his hand a little anxiously, and the breath he exhaled was fleeting, but it did not bring him any luck.
"Do not hide from you, Master, although it rains every year at this time, it is so rare to be so big. To be honest, I really worry about our goods..."
"I know."
Yulian nodded. He pulled down the top of his bowler hat to cover the raindrops.
"Do you have any good solutions?"
"Although it's dangerous, I think maybe everyone should be ready to go."
The old man looked anxiously toward the horizon, where the dense clouds looked more and more dim.
"Although it is dangerous to act in such heavy rains, the weather on the plains also has its characteristics. After the storms before it, it will enter a plateau. I suggest that we take advantage of the upcoming plateau. As long as we can hurry up, we can reach the next town before dark. Once we get there, it will be much easier to avoid the next rainstorm."
The method mentioned by the old manager is a crooked way used by merchants who have been walking around for many years, which is simply called jumping away. Travelers like them, time is sometimes life. But often people are not as good as heaven, and even if they do not encounter man-made disasters like robbery, natural disasters are always inevitable. So these businessmen have their own set of methods. The experience of walking outside for many years has made them come up with many ideas. Like the old stewards, taking advantage of the gap between the two rains is one of them. Of course, this It is also very difficult. After all, the weather is always unpredictable. It is difficult and difficult to seize the time inside. Once the judgment is wrong, the consequences are quite serious.
"Ok."
You Lian did not object to the old manager’s proposal. Although he said he was the manager of the chamber of commerce, in fact, Yu Lian himself did not connect the profit problem of the Neverwinter with himself too much. The most important thing is to be able to reach the destination earlier. So naturally there is not much to say about the old manager's proposal.
"Thank you Master for your support."
Hearing Yulian's answer, the old manager was relieved. In fact, the old manager had such an idea long before Yulian got off the carriage, but he worried that Yulian would not agree. In the eyes of the old manager, this young nobleman is also a character who is eager to enjoy. Under the circumstances in front of him, he is definitely not willing to take the risk of wind and rain. But what the old manager didn't think of was that the young master was so good at speaking, he even agreed to his request without even a trace of doubt.
Thinking of this, the old manager looked much better. He respectfully saluted You Lian, then turned around and immediately commanded. Under his command, the members of the chamber of commerce and mercenaries who had been hiding under the tents and carriages also started to move the carriages and re-tethered the horses in preparation for action. Seeing that there is nothing worth paying attention to by yourself at the moment, Youlian did not say anything, but turned around and intended to enter the carriage.
"Ok?"
At the moment when Yulian reached out to hold the carriage door handle, he suddenly felt a glimmer of breath passing by behind him, which surprised Yulian and then quickly turned back. However, he did not find any anomalies. Except for a few sparse trees, the entire wasteland was covered with rain and fog, and there was nothing strange.
Yulian frowned, and he was sure that he felt right, but that breath disappeared too quickly, and he didn't have time to lock the opponent. Thinking of this, Yulian couldn't help raising his vigilance. He looked around again, and he still didn't notice any weirdness.
"Master, what are you looking at?"
After instructing his men, the old steward turned his head and looked at the young nobleman in front of him. Instead of getting in the carriage, he was stunned here and asked with some curiosity.
"It's nothing."
Yulian shook his head, then turned and walked into the carriage.
Sure enough, the weather began to change as expected by the old stewards, the torrential rains began to weaken, and the originally gusting winds also converged a lot. The people who had already prepared took advantage of this opportunity to immediately set off. The mercenaries were responsible for protecting the sides of the carriage to prevent them from overturning or sliding away. The members of the chamber of commerce also held the whip nervously and drove the horse forward. go with.
Due to the rain, the caravan's speed did not dare to be too fast, but if the speed is too slow, it is very likely that it will not reach the destination before the next rain. This also put everyone in a state of contradiction. On the one hand, they wanted to rush to the town immediately before the storm came again. On the other hand, they also know that if the speed is released at this time, the result will be very bad, so they can only continue to move forward slowly.
It's coming soon! !
Wiping the raindrops on his face, a look of excitement appeared on the old manager's face. He couldn't help turning to look at the sky not far away. At this moment, those black clouds were getting closer and closer. In fact, although the entire caravan was not very fast along the way, fortunately, there were no accidents. Everything went smoothly except that the wheels of a carriage accidentally fell into the mud. As far as the current speed is concerned, as long as half an hour later, they can enter the small town in front to avoid the wind and rain!
".........!"
At this moment, a low hissing sound suddenly sounded, and the horses that had originally pulled the car stopped suddenly. They irritatedly raised their hoofs and made a low hissing sound, no matter how the drivers drove them, They are reluctant to move forward half a step.
"What happened?"
This sudden accident immediately made the old manager nervous, he shouted and asked, and turned his head again. This time, the black cloud was not far from them. Even the wind that had already begun to calm down was again loud at this moment. Got up. The rain is getting denser and thicker, which is not a good phenomenon, but now, these horses are not moving, what are they doing?
"I don't know, lord!"
The coachmen were also very surprised when facing this strange situation. They waved their leather whips and beat these horses hard, but these horses were also strange. No matter what kind of stimulation they were, they just refused to take more steps. . Seeing this scene, the old manager was sinking in his heart. He suddenly remembered a long-rumored rumor on the golden business.
Saint is on top, you won't be so unlucky! !
And just after the old manager secretly panicked, suddenly, a cold wind rose to the ground, and then, a dark shadow suddenly jumped out of it!
"——!!!"
At the same time, the original restless horses roared loudly, and they stood up as if they were avoiding any disaster, and quickly backed away. In this way, the carriage behind them could no longer support it. Soon, a carriage transporting herbal medicines fell to the ground with a "boom", and even the driver was dumped. But the horses pulling the cart seemed to feel completely uncomfortable. They still spun around anxiously, breaking free and trying to escape. The carriage was pulled by them and rolled around, the leather covered and wrapped on it was also scattered, and the herbs stored inside were naturally scattered all over the place.
"Damn, go and stop those horses!!"
Seeing that the herbs had fallen into the mud, the old manager couldn't help but feel distressed. He hurriedly ordered the mercenaries to stop the mad horses. But at that moment, the shadow suddenly stopped, then, it turned a circle, and then rushed towards the carriage where the old manager was.
"Sacred Grace is coming!! Get out!!"
Seeing the shadow rushing towards his carriage, the old steward felt his hand tremble involuntarily, he shouted desperately, and at the same time twitched the border tightly, but in the face of the weird shadow, these horses were also the same as before Like their companions, they do not listen to the command at all. They seem to meet the most terrible enemies. Even the experienced horses are extremely anxious and frightened at the moment. With the approach of the shadow, the old manager felt that the border in his hand was suddenly twitched by a huge force, and then flew into the air uncontrollably.
Finished! !
The old man closed his eyes in despair, he had almost imagined the next result. But at this moment, suddenly protruding.
A black sword light suddenly broke out, rubbing the old man's body, and rushed towards the shadow, and with a low growl, the old man felt that the carriage that had begun to shake was quiet again, and he opened Opening his eyes, he was surprised to see that Yulian, who was supposed to be sitting in the car, was standing next to the carriage at the moment. He held the rope in one hand and stabilized the violent and restless horse. In front of him, the shadow had turned around and disappeared into the rain curtain.
"What on earth happened?"
Everything in front of him left the old manager completely unresponsive. It wasn't until Yulian asked him that he was startled, and then the fear on his face turned into a gloomy color.
"It's the Black Lord, Saint is on it, we were so unlucky, we met that monster..."
In the end, the caravan still failed to reach the town before the storm. When they entered the town, almost everyone was ashamed, and even the old manager was helpless and ashamed, but even so, he still took the initiative to start counting the goods and arrange them. In the warehouse of the hotel.
"Really sorry, young master."
After everything was arranged, the old manager walked into the hotel room and reported to Yulian with a shameful expression.
"We lost nearly one third of our cargo, and some of it was flooded. I don't know if it can be traded after being delivered to the destination. Hey.........I'm really sorry, young master, I shouldn't mention that reckless I already knew that this would be the case. It would have been better if we were safe."
Dorf lowered his head, pale. Although in the end it was just an accident, but if you did not take the risk of taking the jump away method yourself, it would not cause the Chamber of Commerce to lose so much goods, this time it will lose a third, and the rest will also be part of it. After entering the water, it is a question whether half of the transaction can be made after the delivery to the destination. Because of this, the old manager is also very sorry at the moment. After all, he also knows that the Hand of Neverwinter has great opportunities and prospects, but because of his mistakes and the disadvantage of being a teacher, it still makes him feel guilty.
"This is not your responsibility, Mr. Manager."
Regarding the self-blame of the old manager, You Lian did not take it seriously, or in fact, he did not pay attention to these goods at all. Although the value of these herbs is also more than a hundred thousand gold coins, but for You Lian, it is also under consideration at the moment It's not that bad money-anyway, his purpose of following the caravan is just not to reveal his whereabouts, not for the profit of the caravan.
Of course, the old manager didn’t know Yulian’s thoughts. Therefore, after hearing his answer, the old manager had a little more affection for the young nobleman. After all, such a kind and generous manager can’t It’s easy to find. The old manager can believe that even his own owner Keith, if he encounters such a thing, it will not be exposed so easily.
However, if he knew the true thoughts of Yulian's heart, it would be another result.
"But after all, what did we encounter? What is the black lord you are talking about?"
After the report was completed, You Lian seemed to inadvertently ask this question. From the battle between him and the other party, he can realize that the thing is definitely not human, but it is not alien, but more like a spiritual creature. Moreover, in connection with the name of the "Black Lord" mentioned by the old manager, Yulian can be sure that he definitely knows something.
"Hey, Saint is on top, to be honest, I didn't expect to meet it..."
Mentioning this matter, the old manager's somewhat relaxed face dimmed again. He hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed and explained to Yulian.
It turned out that this so-called black lord was a quirky existence that appeared in the golden business road wasteland area. It has only appeared in the rainy days, and its shape is erratic, so it is difficult to be discovered. Every time it appears, it will make those caravans very nervous. Because as soon as this weird thing appears nearby, all the horses will involuntarily become nervous and anxious. As before, chaos due to excessive fear also occurs from time to time. Despite this, everyone has no way to deal with this black lord, because it has always been missing, and it is very smart. In fact, many large chambers of commerce have also tried to catch it, and even please move The magician shot, but still no effect. The only discovery is that this black lord should look like a horse, but why it appears in this area and why it often harasses the caravan is unknown. Since there is no way to take it, the caravans can only ask for luck. Most of them will not choose to rush out during the storm, because if the camp does not move, even if the Black Lord comes, the trouble for them will be very limited. . But once you hurried, it was very troublesome. Like this time, if it wasn't for the transportation of herbs that should not be affected by moisture, the old manager would not be willing to take such a risk. But after all, the merchant's profit is the first one. He hasn't seen the Black Lord for many years, so he made up his mind to take a bet. But he didn't think that man is as good as the sky, but this time, he touched the Black Lord. It's a real one.
"It turns out this way."
After listening to the old manager's story, Yulian's expression didn't change much. On the contrary, he showed a gentle smile and came to comfort the old manager.
"Mr. Manager, don't be so depressed. This time is not your responsibility. You have done your best. So, I think this rain will still be for some time. Don't hurry so much, take a good rest now. If you pass it on, it is my order. Each person sends two gold coins as compensation for this accident. Of course, you have your share."
"Thank you so much, Master. I think those guys will die happily, so I will say goodbye now."
After receiving the money bag from Yulian, the old manager thanked him, and then he stood up and saluted Yulian respectfully.
"Tonight I need to rest, don't come to disturb me, you can make your own decisions about something, I'm a little tired."
"Yes, young master."
As for Yulian’s answer, the old manager was not surprised. The nobleman was the nobleman. The bumps along the way were indeed tiring, even he was a little tired, not to mention the young man. So he was not puzzled by Yulian's instructions and left the room after answering. While watching the old manager's back disappear, Yulian just smiled. He stood up, sorted out his clothes, and then walked into the inner room, where the two confused kittens were Hugged together, fell into a sweet deep sleep. Obviously, these two little guys seem to have not recovered from their previous fatigue. But Yulian did not intend to let them sleep, but reached out and patted their faces gently. Soon, the two girls opened their eyes and stared at Yulian in curiosity.
"brother?"
"father?"
"Is there a problem?"
"What's the matter?"
"Although I know you are tired, there is a very important thing to do now, so you better prepare."
With that in mind, Yulian gently stroked his hilt, and then a smile appeared.
"We are going to grab the mount."
