Chapter 2298:

Hearing Xilu’s voice, Du Sha was obviously more concerned than Li Hu, and hurried over to see what it was. Li Hu gave the girl a glance, and Du Sha’s mind was almost fainted. How could I have the day when I was blinded by others? In the past, how many elder brothers wanted to stand next to them, without raising their eyes to look at them, but now he ran back with a blank eye. This kid really She is too bold, and she will burn you when her magic recovers. [TOP][点] Novel www.3w.m
Cut, I thought it was a good thing worth this guy's visit all the way, but is it just a red-horned wild boar horn? If you want such a thing, you will have several carts right away, that is, you want this planet. There is no problem with the wild boar horns of all the colors above. I really can't see the difference between this kid's.
Li Hu didn’t care what the woman next to him was thinking. He inspected William’s storage ring again. It seemed that this guy was still very rich, with hundreds of millions of assets in it. He was already considered a rich man. And there are some things that I don’t even know, but I don’t know how precious this horn can be to save a bandit leader like William. It’s just that William said that this thing may be worth more than 100 million. Take it back. With William's 100 million and this wild boar horn, he can live a good life with his godfather, and then he can move to the town without worrying about bandit attacks. At this time, this kid is just thinking about improving his current life. As for other things, let's not think about it.
"Hey. Can you go a little farther, I don't want to be with you, you smell bad." Li Hu said to Dusha after putting things away.
what? My body smells bad, please, if you smell it carefully, Dusha almost fainted. She used the best spices produced by the Magic Guild. You can't buy such things with money. The entire Empire Magic Guild only produces a few hundred bottles every year, although it never sells. But there are also some nobles who bid with wealthy merchants. They were all exchanged for the territories of dozens of planets. This kid said that I smelled bad, and yes, this slave kid had never seen anything. It is estimated that the smell of sweat in the slave camp is the most suitable for him. In fact, such things made directly with spices do not smell good to Li Hu of course. That kind of limited edition perfume on earth is the best. How can I explain to this girl? What does he know? Of course, I won’t believe that there will be such a thing. I subconsciously think that my own thing is the best, and other people’s things are not good. Because of what? Just because I am a magician, everything else is not as good as my own.
Magicians all have their own dignity. After hearing Li Hu's words, Du Sha walked aside and told herself to follow you? If it wasn't for the thing that attracted me just now, how could I follow you? Now that there are no secrets, I will naturally not follow you. But from time to time I still want to stretch my head to see what's going on.
"Shelu, you are going to Master Cody's territory, but I am going back to Master Rose's place. Although the two places are connected, they are thousands of miles away. Do you want to go back or follow me? ??" Li Hu was much gentler when he talked to Xilu. This girl was so comfortable when she was with her. Although she was not as pretty as the magician just now, but when she was with that magician, No comfort at all. But when you are with this girl, you will feel very comfortable. This may be the familiarity between the two people from the bone.
It can be seen from Xilu’s eyes that she wants to go with Li Hu very much, but her mother is still feeding the horses in Lord Cody’s territory. If she leaves like this, Lord Cody’s housekeeper It’s strange that she didn’t kill her mother. It’s no big deal to run a male slave. This female slave is worth more than a male slave, especially Xilu who is a bit charming, and some can warm the bed for the masters. Some of them can be playmates for the ladies, of course, the most are still being transported to the city in a carriage to sell, so that it can be more profitable than letting her go herding sheep.
"Master Ying, my mother is still at Master Cody's house, I can't go with you." Xilu thought for a while, her mother is the most important thing, since she was a child, Xilu didn't know who her father was, who was her mother. Raised her, so she can't leave her mother behind.
Xilu's return made Li Hu very happy. This is not a selfish little girl. Now if Xilu follows Li Hu, it is estimated that the magician will not stop him, so Xilu will be free, and Following Li Hu, he would definitely not become a slave again, but this would have suffered her mother and might die because of her disappearance.
"Hey, that magician, I'll discuss something with you, and you can come here." Li Hu didn't have that good temper when he talked to Dusha. Who told this man with an angelic face to kill himself Well, look good to the enemy? We are not stupid yet.
"Do you know that you are talking to a magician, do you know that your attitude is going to be broken by the car just now, do you know..." People have not come here yet, and there are a lot of rules.
"Stop, you can be honest with me. If I told those bandits that you are actually incapable, your subordinates must not be able to kill them. At that time, you were a magician. What if they were afraid of the Magician Guild? Your strength won't do you anything, but I heard that the one in the car is your cousin, she wouldn't be so lucky?" Li Hu ruthlessly hit the proud little magician in front of him.
"I know what you mean. I owe you one time. I won't be shameless, so I don't need to talk about it every time." Dusha is also a cheerful person, so naturally she won't make mistakes. It is estimated that Li Hu called herself just to find something my own.
"Well, I have to go back to my house, but I will go to Master Cody's site to find you soon. Can you release this person from slavery? Of course, I will pay how much money should be paid. . And her mother, don’t you know it’s okay?
Li Hu speaks a lot now, he has more than 100 million in cash in his hand, and there are some coin-like things. I heard that they are called coppers. , 100,000 yuan each, it should be very valuable.
"Hey, is this a begging tone? How do I feel that this is an order?" Dusha is also unreasonable at the moment, your kid finally has the time to beg me, not now It's time to scold me so cool. Ten years of feng shui turns. How come it's in my hands so soon. It was not like this when your kid was talking just now.
"Well, I think I still have to talk to the bandits over there. It seems that some of them are intermediate fighters. It seems that they are much better than Lin Qiang among you." Li Hu said After that, he passed to the killing place. Although half of the bandits have been executed. But the ones that Li Hu said are really amazing.
"Thank you. Stop it. You just use small things. Do you have any new tricks? A big man keeps talking about small things. I'm not ashamed. I'll take care of this little girl, but I have a condition, can you tell me what is different about the wild boar horn you just took?" Dusha is obviously not the one who suffers, so she has to figure it out.
"It's a small thing, but it's very useful. This thing can allow you to do a lot for me. Of course, this is when your gem is exhausted. It's just a wild boar horn, but William It's very valuable." Li Hu is also a little pleasing to see the magician now. After all, this guy is a little girl, and it's okay to show her, maybe she still knows.
Dusha took the wild boar horn that Li Hu handed over. As for Li Hu's words, she directly ignored her. She had such a personality. This wild boar horn looks the same as other wild boar horns, and there is no difference. , Why does it feel different from the wild boar horns I have seen before? But I couldn't observe why.
"Dusha, we are leaving, you come back quickly." When Dusha was going to take a good look, a voice came from behind the team. In this team, she can be called her cousin, don't Dare you call Dusha's name? Even the chiefs of this galaxy can't. People call her His Royal Highness Tussa, and some high-level people like to call her Tussa Mage. Only the people closest to her can call her Tussa. If other people say something about Dusha, they will be killed immediately. Just like what she said, ordinary people don't respect the magician, it will be broken by the car.
"Oh, I'll come." Dusha turned around and prepared to give Li Hu what was in her hand. I guess she wouldn't be able to see it for a few years, but when the wild boar horn touched the magic crystal in her neck , The magic recovery speed of that crystal has doubled, and the recovery speed can be seen clearly with the naked eye.
"Oh my God, you can restore my magic." Du Sha said blankly, and both Li Hu and Xilu looked over, and Li Hu took a step forward, almost following Du Sha is just sticking to it. If this is seen by some princes, you will definitely have to fight Li Hu. Du Sha is the wife they dream of. At this moment, he is standing so close to such a wild man, and this guy is still a man. Slave, there is no reason in this world.
"Hehe, it seems that this thing is really a treasure." Li Hu smiled stupidly.
My goodness, Dusha on the side is about to faint. It's a treasure. It's a national treasure. The average old man can treat his BMW as a treasure. A higher inspector might collect a sword or a sword. What? A higher level of patrol makes it estimated that there is something like gemstones, all the way to the highest officer of the galaxy, there may be an all-metal spacecraft, and those things are tens of billions, hundreds of billions or more. , But compared with the one in front of me, those things are just a fart.
Magicians are definitely the richest person in this world. It is too difficult for magicians to think of things as treasures, because most people will not recognize the things they need, but the thing in front of them, Dusha finally knows it is. Something, the horn of the mutated red-horned wild boar king, such a thing is absolutely rare, at least my teacher has searched for it for a long time and has not found it.
"Your kid doesn't know where the luck comes from. If my teacher is here, he will definitely buy everything. I will inform my teacher immediately, but I ask you not to sell this thing. This planet is wrong. There are absolutely no people in this galaxy or even this country who can buy this thing. Anyone of them will lie to you.
Dusha was already a little silly at this time. The cousin behind him called her several times, but she didn't answer at all. There is only this thing in my eyes.
"What kind of is worth making your teacher run? Tell you, if you didn't hit me with a fireball just now, it could be given to you, but you hit me. Even if your teacher comes, I won't sell it." Li Hu said. In fact, this is also the truth. Although the relationship between the two people has eased a little now, the girl just now was really too much.
What's the situation? Just because I hit you with a fireball just now? Don't sell it to my master? If the master knew this reason, he would have driven himself out of the master, my God. This is the end of the world. But just now I have used the communicator to pass the news to the master. Although the master hasn't responded yet, he must have received it, and he can't ask this guy to run around with this thing. It would be a big trouble if someone else recognizes it.
"Don't, this big brother, it was all my fault just now, don't care about me, you are not a magician, holding this thing is useless..." Dusha looked anxious.
"Wait, how do you know that I am not a magician? Do I need to be tested if I am not a magician? I haven't tested it yet." Li Hu interrupted her.
By the way, the kid who ran so fast just now should be very sensitive to the wind.
"Test? The magician test will take half a year, but I have a very simple way to test your magical potential. Although you can't know the specific potential, you can definitely see whether you have talent or not. Of course, I also have one. Conditionally, when the time comes, my master will come, and you will sell this thing to my master.
Du Sha has a weird face, and what she said is true. She can detect it, but she just learned it from Li Hu. It must be good. Only things can be done, and things that are not good will never be done.
Li Hu thought for a while, and Du Sha's heart almost came up.
"Okay, but only after my test, if I also have magic talent, I know from your appearance that this thing must be important to the magician, then I will not sell it, but if I am not, I'll sell it to your master. You know, I don't understand anything, how can I sell it at a fair price?" Li Hu said his question, anyway, he can't suffer, if he is a magician Never sell it. If not, then sell it. Anyway, she must help if she is determined. It seems that this thing will definitely not be as simple as one or two billion. Xilu has already told herself about the magician, and her master must He is an amazing person, and what such a person needs is tens of billions.
At this time, Li Hu feels that his greatest wealth is tens of billions. No matter how big he is, he has no idea. He only knows tens of thousands of dollars to make him not a slave. Of course, this is his father who has a fourth-class citizen. , If not, it would cost hundreds of thousands. If a slave wants hundreds of thousands, it is simply nonsense. A few hundred yuan for a slave is not bad.
"Oh, your planet is really backward. You don't even have the Internet. So, I'll tell you this." Du Sha didn't know how to say it. Now Li Hu is like a barbarian in front of her, basically. almost.
"My teacher is a respected great magician. He will definitely not take advantage of others. When my teacher comes, you can check the price of this thing through his auxiliary optical brain. Believe it, one hundred people and one million people say you will always believe it?
Dusha tried to make Li Hu who she explained could understand, but there are still many words that Li Hu doesn’t understand, and she has to explain.
"Okay." After Dusha finished speaking, Li Hu said, "Let me test now." There is no internet here. Alchemy still exists on Earth. Of course, Li Hu knows what that auxiliary optical brain does. There are already such things on the earth, but they are not perfect yet. It seems that there is a lot of news when I came here. I really hope that those people on the earth can contact them quickly.
"Uh, the material is not enough." Dusha really wanted to see what was in this guy's mind. Is detection such a simple thing? You have to know that those professional inspections have to watch the spacecraft come.
"Is this okay?" Li Hu followed the example of Du Sha just now, and a spark that was a little bigger than what he had just played was gone. "I will also do the trick you played, so can I be considered a magician?" Li Hu said relaxedly, but Xilu and Dusha on the side have basically become stone men, which is too good. A little bit, is this guy a magician?
At this time, Dusha basically has no thoughts. The scene just now was too scary. What kind of monster is this guy? Yes, I can only use monsters to talk about this kid. What is needed to be able to issue such a fireball? There are so many things that I need, so let's just talk about the magic crystal in my neck. That is a sky-high price. There are also all kinds of things on his body, and of course his teacher's years of guidance. It took him a full ten years to play this fireball technique. This kid knew that he was learning now by looking at the crappy look. There is no magic equipment. There is no teacher or professor. This guy can play, if he puts on his own equipment, what can he get?
"Hey. You speak, do you have to hit your level to be a magician? Mine doesn't count?" Li Hu saw that this little girl hadn't spoken for a long time. He couldn't help but feel a little anxious. I have to go back quickly, although it doesn't take much time, but if I let my godfather know about it, I'll worry about it. Can I run out in the middle of the night?
"Huh? Ao, you. When did you learn it, did you just learn it?" Dusha asked for a long time. She felt that the world seems to be dreaming now. First, she saw someone who could avoid magic. The attack of the division, this is nothing. The problem is that this person has only the strength of a low-level fighter. The second is that this guy can resist his fireball skills to survive. This is definitely a top-level question. Of course, if these are not counted, This guy can play it by himself after watching his own fireball technique. Is this definitely the biggest news in the empire? I can be regarded as the genius I have never met in thousands of years, but compared to the guy in front of me, he seems to be a complete stupid.
"I just learned it, I'll do it when I look at you." Li Hu replied honestly. Dusha fell straight on the head. It was too tough. This person is definitely a genius magician. , Is the enchanting magician, I have also seen the most enchanting magician in the magic academy, but compared with the one in front of him, it seems to be a lot worse.
"You have to see my teacher. If he sees you, your life will have a major change." Dusha said at this time that nothing would let this guy go, she must wait until her teacher comes. Yes, but her teacher is several billion light-years away. Even if it is the fastest, it will take a few years. Who can let this empire without a teleportation array, come home by yourself It would take several years to visit relatives, but if something happened to this kid in the past few years, it would really be the biggest loss for the Magic Guild.
This year the empire has been reducing the rights of the magic guild. The magic guild is also the biggest internal worry of the empire. However, the empire has implemented many laws and was resisted by the people of the magic guild. Who made the magician's original fact too powerful? ? However, the number of magicians is still too small. Compared to the number of billions of people in an emperor group, the number of magicians is not even a fraction. If the guy in front of you can be brought back to the union, it must be possible. To become the most dazzling magician, maybe the chairman of the magic guild may belong to this guy in the future.
"Girl, I don’t care how good your teacher is, I have to tell you that my life will only be in my own hands, and the delay will not be short. Don’t say that those are gone. I'll leave this person to you. When I go to see her, you have to make sure that she is okay. The power of the magician seems to be great. You can take care of her. This wild boar horn, if I If you don’t need it, I’ll give it to you when she can do it well.
Li Hu’s words directly scared Dusha, who had just woke up. Brother, we don’t bring such a game, and it’s even more impressive. Alive.
This thing in front of you can be exchanged for dozens of human planets. Your kid actually gave it away, and it was just for a slave mother and daughter. If you pass this news to you, you will be considered the most expensive bodyguard. Well, the most expensive bodyguards of those big men are hundreds of millions a year, but as long as you take care of these two slaves, there are dozens of planets. The price of a planet is about 10,000 gold coins in the empire. One gold coin can be exchanged for one thousand silver coins, one silver coin is one thousand copper coins, one copper coin is one hundred thousand dollars, one gold coin is one hundred billion, one trillion is one planet, dozens of planets...
"Master Ying, are you really going to see me?" Xilu tilted her head and said to Li Hu. Li Hu felt like his little sister. Seeing her is the same as seeing his godfather. Feel warm.
"Haha. Of course. I will definitely go, but my current status is a slave, I can't run around, otherwise it will be troublesome if I get caught and killed. Haha. I'm going back. You slowly Go, your ball seems to be almost recovered, with you. There should be no danger." Li Hu pointed to Dusha and said, Dusha is also strange, his magic gem is in his arms. How did this guy see it? Could this kid see through? Isn't that self? Thinking of this, Dusha's face was as red as a monkey's butt. The look in Li Hu's eyes was also annoying. Li Hu was a little unsteady when he walked. A beauty would still feel a little uncomfortable looking at herself.
"Wait, aren't you still a slave? With this, no one will treat you as a slave. From now on you will be my housekeeper. I know this thing is a bit wrong to you, but you carry it with you, a magic The teacher’s house will not say anything about your master. Even the highest official here will not say anything to you. Of course, if you think I insulted you, you can throw it away.
Dusha blushed and threw it to Li Hu made a brand, and then ran back to the car. Li Hu touched the beautifully made brand in his hand. He was a bit surprised. How could this little girl love red faces so much? What is the use of this thing? Li Hu thought depressed.
"Master Ying, remember to visit me, I will wait for you." Xilu shouted loudly in the direction where Li Hu left. She waited for a long time. What she didn't know was the one in the car. Looking in that direction for a long, long time.
"Asshole, you little servant, don't hurry to get in the car, we have to hurry, so loudly, do you want to attract the robbers?" A junior warrior was immediately unhappy when he saw Xilu and a little slave yelling in the middle of the night Get up, the robbers almost killed themselves just now.
"I'm sorry, Lord Aman..." Xilu turned her head and said in a low voice. At this moment, she was very scared. The person in front of her was a good friend of the young lady. It would be nothing to kill herself.
It's a pity that Lord Oman was immediately taken off by a whip, and it was the magician Dusha who shot. Although Dusha is not very skilled, the whip is a good practice, plus that guy. Seeing that it was Dusha, she didn't dare to resist, even if she didn't get her, she had to get down by herself. This is power.
"You, cut off your left hand, and, you all listen to me, you have to tell them when you return to your master's territory, Xilu and her mother are my friends from today. If you don’t respect them, then The pile of black ash is your example, Xilu, come to my car.
Dusha’s words completely changed Xilu’s destiny. Everyone looked enviously at Xilu who flew on the branch and became a phoenix. They knew it was still The reason for that Master Shadow just now. As for the low-level warrior, even if such a person is killed, no one can care about it. People like you dare to yell at the magician’s friend. It’s strange that you don’t want to die. Other people don’t. This kind of ability is your boss's inspector, and the magician can make others head down with a word.
When Li Hu returned to Master Rose’s slave camp, the sky was already a bit pale. The slaves over there were about to get up. Li Hu knew that it was uncomfortable. At this time, it’s usually when he sleeps best. Now, it’s not so pleasant to get up to work, but now I don’t have to be so unlucky. I am not a slave now, just like his godfather. If you have your own class, I’m sorry you have to get those slaves up to work. I went, but if you don't have your own class, you can go to bed honestly. There is nothing to check here anyway.
It just so happened that Old Bart didn’t have to go to work today. Yesterday, I drank some of the incense that he was sleeping in bed now. When Li Hu sneaked onto his bed, he didn’t disturb him at all. Li Hu ran all night and felt like he was too I'm a little tired, but there seems to be something in William's ring, which I just looked through, which is very useful.
Li Hu just pretended to be asleep while searching for the things in William's ring with his own consciousness. I saw the money and copper coins just now. I probably don’t know these things. The things that make me feel can’t be these vulgar things, but I didn’t find anything after searching for a long time, and I was really sleepy, so I fell asleep in a daze and did it. I had a very good dream. I dreamed that the beautiful little magician closed his eyes and waited for him to kiss her. The skin is really tender, and the fluff on the face can be seen, but this is the time when Old Bart Woke myself up.
"My dear son. Get up quickly. I'm going to take you to the town today. We're going to do things for you. Get up quickly and don't sleep. What we agreed with your Uncle Groot is today. You kid Get up quickly. Don’t lose your chain at this time.. I said, how did your kid turn around and fall asleep again. Get up for me. I can't afford you." Old Bart threw his cold hand to Li Hu Go to the bed.
"My mother, godfather, don't take you like this. It would be nice to sleep more in the morning." Li Hu murmured. He only slept for less than two hours, can he not be sleepy.
"Smelly boy, don't call mom, where's the mom, get out of here, we have to go by the morning car, otherwise we can only wait for the afternoon one, we won't be able to come back for the afternoon one. The accommodation in that town is too expensive. How can we live in?
Old Bart said while throwing his clothes over to Li Hu.
Although Li Hu was unhappy, he was a little afraid that the cold dragon claw hand of the old man just now became honest.
Li Hu saw the hot rice and vegetables on the table after washing. It turned out that the old man got up much earlier than himself, and he had already prepared the food. Li Hu glanced at the busy old Bart. This man is really real. If he regards himself as his son, he will definitely not let him down, and will let him live a good life, but the change cannot pass in a day.
It was less than eight o'clock when the two masters finished their meal. The car from here to the town departed on time at eight o'clock. The two masters threw down the bowls and chopsticks and ran all the way to the place. The people who went to the town today are really not There are only five carriages in total. They are called horse-drawn carriages. They are actually pulled by animals that are bigger than a horse but are not fast but very powerful. They are called mules.
"Old Bart, the number of times you go to the town is really a lot these days, but we don’t have the reason to go to the town more cheaply. The original price is 20 yuan per person." The horseman who drove the car did not live here. But it’s better to understand it after running this line. Old Bart happily handed this guy forty yuan. Although it’s a bit more expensive, it’s safer. There are observations from Master Ross’ private army. Yes, ordinary robbers don't dare to come, but there is no absolute thing. Even if he comes, you can't help it.
"Old Bart, although this is about to become your son, he is not yet. We can only do things according to the rules. The slaves are charged three times as much. But starting from this rule, your kid is the first to ride in the car. The slave who went to the town, your kid is lucky. After paying the sixty dollars, you will only need twenty dollars just like everyone else. Please make a lot of money and pay old Bart." The driver saw Li. The Tiger was about to get in the car and said, Li Hu frowned. Old Bart knew this rule and quickly handed it over forty yuan. This money is going to be spent, and he is happy to spend it.
There are five cars, each of which can seat about a dozen people, but it hasn’t reached the point yet, so it’s not full. The two of you found a middle position. Such cars are very bumpy when sitting in front and behind. Only the middle is better. Others haven't been out much, so they don't understand it very well. Old Bart has been there several times, so he understands better.
"It's all done, let's go." After waiting for five minutes, the guy yelled and threw the whip, and his leader went away. The cars behind were all connected by ropes. So they all followed.
"God, this man is very profitable. I heard you say that it only takes two hours in the town, two round trips a day. I think there are more than forty people. One person twenty is a few hundred. It’s more than 800 yuan a day.
Li Hu looked at the back and said, the money made is much faster than the money made by the supervisors.
"Hey, your kid is dreaming. If you make him earn more than 800 a day, isn't Master Ross becoming a good person? He is just a part-time worker. Didn't you see a person sitting in the car behind, that person is Master Ross People of, they are not fixed. Following this car today, they may go to another line tomorrow. This person’s monthly salary is more than half of mine. The rest of the money belongs to Master Rose, although the salary is more Halfway through, but there are also a lot of dangers on the road, and if these animals ran away, he would not be able to sell them. This thing is very risky." Old Bart liked to tell Li Hu what he knew , A small problem can also be explained to Li Hu in detail.
These noble lords are really inhumane. Exploited to such a degree, Li Hu soon learned that besides the noble lords, his doglegs are also very exploitable. He happened to meet a group of people going back halfway from the town. Cavalry, Li Hu listened to Old Barthes saying "It's really unlucky" and looked over with a puzzled look.
"Hey, these people are here to fight the autumn wind. They dare not go far away, for fear that they will encounter robbers, so they wander around the pipes and walk along with them for a while, so that they can cost ten yuan per person. Protection fee.
Because the money is usually negotiated by the officer with the coachman, the coachman pays it first, and then collects the money when you get off the bus. It’s no problem if you don’t pay it. uukanshu.com, these coachmen will not pull you directly next time, expecting you to walk back by yourself, that is impossible.
The officer who led the team took a wad of banknotes from the driver, smiled triumphantly, and accelerated to leave the convoy and ran towards another convoy in the distance. It seemed to be really busy.
"Shameless thing." Li Hu cursed in his heart, but at the moment he didn't have the ability, so he could only endure it first.
"God, there are so many private soldiers with Master Ross, why are there so many bandits here? If Master Ross really encircles and suppresses such bandits, our life should not be so difficult?" Li Hu looked at The strength of these troops, although the leaders cannot keep up with William's ability, but these people are all trained and large in number. If these people are willing to suppress the bandits, I believe that even if the bandits are not eliminated, they will probably be reduced a lot. of.
"Hehe, you stupid boy, what do you know, what do we mean to Master Rose? Don't talk about these slaves, even we are no different from slaves. If we ask this guy to send troops to conquer bandits, just It is for military expenses to spend the entire year's income of Master Rose. Anyway, the bandits will not come to his site, they are in some periphery. What is he afraid of? As for our lives, he is not in the mood to care. "Old Bart said with a sigh. (To be continued...)
