"It's getting more and more interesting ..."
Lorren squatting outside the barn, looked at the broken wagon parked at the door with the remaining light, and the sneaky people who came out from inside. In places like shanty towns, what kind of guy would think of a horse-drawn carriage?
If it is for hidden trails, isn't the carriage even more dazzling than the clothes on it? On the contrary, compared to whether it is conspicuous, the owner of the carriage is more afraid of exposing his identity, or that his face is seen by others, so he would rather use this weird way.
Therefore, I am afraid that the other party's future is not small, either rich or expensive-then again, it can make a group of rogues, it is impossible to do without a large sum of money.
As the carriage arrived, rogues wandering around the barn entered the gate one after another. Loren followed the crowd around carefully, and walked in through the side door.
Burning bonfires, shattered wooden barrels full of inferior wine, and the sour and smelly smell around them, the whole barn is completely a scene of the annual meeting of beggars. Loren curled up in the inconspicuous corner and pulled the hood, making him look as inconspicuous as possible, but fully notice the central position of the barn.
Lorren, who had been thinking about it, even relaxed a little, leisurely like waiting for prey, and even filled a glass of bad wine from the broken wooden barrel.
By comparison, boys who call themselves "hats" are not as easy as he is-from seeing the carriage parked at the door, the boy's head is constantly fighting with people, and when everyone starts to come in, He couldn't help hiding from the crowd and dared not show his head. Anyway, he was short and small, and he didn't look dazzling.
After a while, the hat saw their "boss", a fat man with a big face, greeted a mysterious man wrapped in a gray robe all over his body. The boss who usually shouts five and six, is just like a fat dog in front of the gray-robed old man, with his neck bent down, his face full of flattering smiles.
After greeting the grey-robed man to sit down, the boss regained his former spirit and stood beside the bonfire in the middle of the barn. A pair of small eyes squeezed out from the fat room looked around: "Brothers, we are tonight There are noble guests, and I will soon say hello to this old man! "
A group of rogues followed their boss, clumsily imitating the rich man who usually spit in the back, nodding and bowing salute. However, the gray robe didn't seem to care, and coughed gently to continue.
"Uh ... the old man said, as long as we honestly listen to the instructions in the future, the pub next door to his group of grandma king will be ours from now on!"
It wasn't until the barn that was still sullen at this time that loud cheers came out. Obviously this group of rogues had been watching the pub for a long time, and all the faces were full of surprises and flattering expressions. The boy in the middle of the crowd giggled with the people around him, as if nothing really happened.
"Not only that, if anyone can accomplish what the old man tells, there will be extra rewards!" Seeing the cheerfulness of the younger brothers, the boss with a fleshy face was also more excited, and he pointed it smoothly. A rogue standing in front: "You, hey, it's you, what did you say to me this morning?"
"I saw it! The wizard who came back last time, followed a priest into the church!" The rogue, who was dancing, jumped out as soon as he heard "reward money", and raised his right hand, fearing that someone might preempt it.
"Good job!" The gray-robed man behind him nodded, and the slightly painful boss still threw a pack of copper plates to the rogue, then pretended to be happy and then shouted to the crowd: "See if there is, It ’s all cash! Who else saw the wizard? "
A cold hat behind him hurried towards the back of the crowd. Before turning around, he was stared at by the sharp-eyed boss: "Hey, aren't you also coming near the church, the other two?"
"He, they haven't come back yet?" The somewhat guilty hat turned and asked with a smile of surprise. He shrank out of the crowd and stood in front of the boss and the grey robe.
"This kid is the smartest, and the wallets of the entire Gumu Town can't escape his eyes." The boss patted the small shoulder of the hat while bragging with the gray robe: "Quick, tell the master that you found it what?"
"I, I have always been in the back wall of the church ..." Zhizhiwuwu, his trembling hat eyes kept moving back and forth, thinking quickly how he should deal with it.
At the moment Yu Guang swept around, the boy suddenly found a hooded man in the corner of the barn and smiled and lifted his toast to him. The hat immediately felt cold hair standing upright!
"But, but nothing was found!" If he swallowed his mouth, he pretended not to look at the boss's eyes in a hat that pretended to be calm: "I saw the two of them go drinking, and then ... then I came back."
"He lied!"
The silent gray robe suddenly said, staring at the pale hat: "Catch him!"
The gray-faced hat turned around and ran away immediately, and the rogues around shouted at him, but they missed one by one, and the muscular boy looked like a slippery fish, panicking. Ran towards the barn door.
But there were too many people in the room, the hat that jumped up and down still knocked his knee, and was almost hit by the glass of flying wine to his head, but he did n’t even dare to scream, and endured the pain-as long as he himself Stopped and it's done, the gray robe will certainly not let go of him!
"boom--!"
Somehow the noise came from, a burst of fire burst on the eaves of the barn, followed by billowing smoke, like something was lit, and the rogues in the house immediately made a mess, just Even the gray-robed man who had just acted calmly seemed to become a headless fly, yelling in panic.
"He's in this barn, and the wizard is in this barn—grab me!" The gray robe's voice was unexpectedly sharp, and he was a little flustered: "Whoever catches him , Who the pub is! "
Such a reward not only did not arouse the "morale" of the rogues, but made the scene more confusing. The gray robe who couldn't sit still finally dragged the boss who was beside him and escaped from the side door of the barn.
Taking advantage of the chaos, he escaped from the barn full of smoke, and before he could breathe in his hat, still thinking about going there, he found that there was already a figure in front of him-the wizard who was not much bigger than himself ~ www.mtlnovel. com ~ is looking at himself with a smile.
"I, I didn't tell them, it was the guy who discovered it!" The boy who was still gasping for breath quickly explained: "You also saw it, he knew at a glance that I was lying!"
"I don't mean to blame you. In fact, it helped me a lot." Loren squatted down and patted the shoulder of the hat: "Relax, no one will come to you again."
Worn carriage, gray-robed man covering his ears-such a goal is even easier to find for Loren than the moon, he can even vaguely guess who it is, but he needs to be further determined, if it is possible, it may be Tonight, you can see the facts again.
Of course, the last one depends on the situation. Compared to the truth, Loren hopes that he can have a few more cards in his hand, so that he will not let himself inadvertently retreat.
Comforting the boy, Loren turned around and left, closely following the rut marks on the ground, and left the squatter area still in smoke. He didn't even need to pay much attention, and he could feel how panicked the other side was when he left.
I do n’t know how many intersections I turned, and Loren, who passed halfway through the ancient wood town, found the empty broken carriage in a small alley-obviously the other party was not completely brainless, and knew to cover up the trail, Throw down the carriage and choose to walk away.
But he didn't have to bother to find it anymore. Loren slightly gasped, but with a weird smile on his face, he looked at the luxurious house opposite, with a wooden sign with the words "Laire's house" on it.
The home of one of the few wealthy merchants in Gumu Town-and the one mentioned by Draco.
"How to say, life is really full of coincidences."
