Chapter 667: Betrayal


, The fastest update of the latest chapter of the mysterious world under steampunk!
After a long time, there was no movement from the outside world, but the people in the caravan did not dare to leave the camp and went to the dunes to investigate the situation. They could only wait quietly.
The owner of the caravan reminded the caravan in time to avoid a disaster, and was naturally regarded as a hero by the caravan. If it was not because the crisis has not been lifted, they might have held a banquet for this. After all, they can solve it once. The loss of nearly forty sand thieves is already a big victory.
As for the sole deceased caravan supervisor, it almost caused a disaster. If he didn’t die, he would definitely be held accountable by the caravan, but now that he’s dead, he won’t say anything. He hastily packed up his body. For a moment, according to the customs of their respective tribes, bury them directly in the nearby desert.
As the sky gradually brightened, the caravan people already knew that the crisis was really lifted. At this time, they sent a bold person to carefully touch the sand dunes, searched for some, and sent some people to patrol the surrounding areas. After a lap, it was completely confirmed that yesterday's sand thieves had retreated.
The people in the caravan were tense all night and their spirits were immediately relaxed. Many people even sat directly on the ground, so they slept like this.
Because the supervisor of the caravan died last night, the caravan selected one of the elders of each tribe as the new supervisor, and Xanthan, the most experienced elder, was elected as the new supervisor.
At the request of Xantang, the team is now drawing immediately, trying to cross the small Moss desert during the day, and cleaning up the goods of the small caravans in the rear, half of which are used as pensions for the loss of caravan personnel, and the other half are awarded to The owner of the car, after all, if it is not the owner of the car, I am afraid that the caravan will be over last night.
Perhaps in order to show the importance attached to the car owner, Xang also placed the car owner's car in the middle of their tribe's fleet for easy care.
After a series of instructions and arrangements, the caravan quickly unlocked the defensive camp and re-entered the fleet mode, marching towards the outside of the Little Gus desert quickly. In order to prevent the sudden attack of sand thieves during the day, Xantang also arranged a large number of people to take turns patrolling the periphery of the convoy in order to be foolproof.
Although this increased the burden of caravan guards, in order to be able to save their lives, caravan guards did not have too many complaints and honestly executed orders.
Because we had already walked halfway last night, and now everyone is in a hurry to rush, so before noon, the team has already walked out of the Little Gus Desert and came to a piece at the junction of the Little Gus Desert and the Quincy Snow Mountain Small grassland.
This small grassland has no name and belongs to the tribes. Because it is at the foot of the Quincys Snow Mountain, where the water resources are abundant and the wild grasses are growing vigorously, most of the nearby tribes will come here to graze, and they will also bring some tribal commodities with them. Other tribes that have been grazing here have traded, and over time, a market has been formed that is commonly used by nearby tribes.
The United Caravan was not completely safe after passing through the Little Gus Desert. I knew that the caravan of the caravan was only completely safe after entering the market of small and large tents in the middle of this small grassland. There is no need to worry about sand. The robber attacked.
Although the tribes around the small grassland are small tribes, there are marriages between the tribes, the relationship is very close, and they are extremely united to the outside. Because they are grazing tribes, there is no shortage of pack animals in the tribe, and the tribe members are also very good riders. Once the thieves broke into this area, it was basically difficult to escape again, so this is equivalent to a safe haven.
The United Caravan did not seem to be here for the first time. When he arrived at the market, Gu Sang took the initiative to talk to an old man who led the patrol team. The relationship between the two seemed very good, and then the old man let himself The cavalrymen led the convoy into an open area of ​​the market and settled down in the camp. At this time, the caravans began to do business with other tribes in the market.
When everyone in the caravan was busy, Leo’s pack car was very idle. In order to thank the owner of the caravan, the people in the caravan took the initiative to tie up the owner of the caravan and dispose of the small gifts presented to him. The caravan's goods, only to everyone's surprise, is to get a large amount of Jinsa, which can already be regarded as a little rich man's pack owner. He did not show much joy, and his face was more worried.
For this reason, some people also tried to ask the owner of the car to worry about what happened to him, but the owner did not say anything, but took it vaguely, and then took the box full of Jinsa and returned to his car .
"Since it has been done, don't regret it." Leo played with the metal ball in his hand and looked at the depressed car owner sitting next to him and said.
"What do you know?" The owner of the piggyback glanced at Leo and said indifferently.
Leo smiled surprisingly, and said, "I know you are the internal responders who are inserted into the caravan."
Hearing Leo’s words, the owner of the car was shocked and quickly leaned his head out of the carriage and looked around. When no other people were found, he shrank back and looked at Leo sullenly. How did you know?"
Leo said quietly: "It's very simple. If you are not a sand thief, how could you be so familiar with the tactics of sand thieves? And if you are not known in advance, how can you be so sure that the survivors of the small teams behind are all What about sand thieves?"
The owner of the car was silent for a moment and asked, "Why didn't you report me?"
"Why do you want to report you?" Leo asked back, laughing: "If you are reported, I will certainly be jointly and severally liable as the person who hired you, and whoever told you to drive me, not to mention you now Caravan hero, a foreigner said that the caravan hero is the internal response of sand thieves, who would believe that?"
The owner of the car was silent for a while, and said, "I used to be a member of the owl, but I have already retired. In order to withdraw, I passed the ceremony and gave up my qualification to wield a weapon." As he spoke, he showed little With the right hand of the thumb, he said: "I just want to live a quiet life, but they just approached me and asked me to be the caravan of the caravan." Then, he turned to look at Leo and said: " At first, I thought you were the owl, because their plan was also to let a foreigner hire my pack car into the convoy, and the timing of your coming was so coincidental."
Leo asked puzzled: "Why did you complete your internal tasks, but chose to betrayal, aren't you afraid of those thieves retaliating?"
"Of course I am afraid," the owner of the pack car looked at Leo with fear and replied honestly: "It's just that I'm more afraid of death. If I help them in, you might kill us all, and you also have this Ability right?"
Leo did not give the other party a reply, but asked with a little curiosity: "Why do sand thieves target this caravan?"
"It’s not very clear. As a matter of fact, the cargo of this caravan is not particularly valuable, and it is also very troublesome to get out. According to the principle of doing things, this caravan is not unless they have a bad year. These caravans will be moved." The owner of the caravan shook his head slightly and said, "It is likely that they were hired to attack this caravan."
"Employment? Will sand thieves be hired?"
"Of course, those big tribes need some people to help them do some shameful things. Sand thieves are the best candidates." The owner of the caravan showed a disdainful look, saying: "You think why the owl has been in Dagus for so many years. The desert is safe and sound. It is not that the lords of those city-states cannot kill him, but that they do not want to. They need to do something for them."
After listening to the explanation from the owner of the car, Leo asked no more, sitting on the velvet blanket as if closing his eyes.
The owner of the caravan hesitated and took out all the rewards he got from the caravan and pushed it to Leo before saying, "Since you have helped me hide..."
"No need! Keep it yourself!" Leo shook his head, then smiled and said: "And someone will send me money."
Just when Leo's voice fell, he heard Gu Sang, who had become the caravan supervisor, outside the carriage and said, "Is Mr. Leo here?"
After Gusang did not wait for Leo to respond, he opened the door and walked in. After seeing the owner of the car, he pretended to be surprised and said, "So you are also Mr. Sans? I have something to find you. Employers talk about it, can you give me a hand?
Although Gu Sang was asking the suggestions of the owner of the car, the tone was actually more like asking the owner of the car to leave now, and it cannot be refused.
The owner of the car also heard the meaning, but he did not leave immediately, but turned to look at Leo. After seeing Leo nodded, he left the carriage.
This detail was seen by Gusang, and he couldn't help but re-examine Leo's identity or ability, because he saw the emotion of awe from the look of the owner of the car.
Gu Sang had thought of soliciting this Sans as a chauffeur before, because he could see that this Sans was not simple, even in a crowded environment, he did not show any cowardice.
However, Sens refused his invitation very politely, and he behaved very well, neither humble nor humbly, but such a person now showed such obvious awe to Leo, a foreigner, which gave Gu Sang a trace of heart. He suspected that he had given up some of the previously prepared speech.
Gu Sang could not find a good speech for the time being, he could only open the door and said: "Is this wood carving yours?"
Talking, the ancient sauna came out of the wood carving and placed it in front of Leo.
"No." Leo shook his head and gave Gu Sang an unexpected answer, but Fenghuan heard l Leo said again: "I have given this wood carving to your tribe's children, and the ownership is with him."
Hearing Leo’s words, Gu Sang was slightly relieved, and then said with a smile: "I see this wood carving is very exquisite, I heard that Mr. Leo still has a few wood carvings here, it happens to be a set, I don’t know if Mr. Leo would like to Willing to give me this set of wood carvings? I am willing to pay a high price."
"What is the high price you said?" Leo Shensheng asked.
"Five...five hundred gold salsa." Gu Sang was going to say fifty gold salsa. But thinking of the look of the owner of the car, he immediately changed his tongue and increased tenfold.
"Haha!" Leo smiled and said, "Mr. Superintendent would really joke, even at such an unexpected price, but you seem to underestimate the value of my wood carving, if you are willing to pay five thousand gold , I'd rather think about it."
"What? One of the five thousand gold salsa!" Gusang was obviously frightened by this number, because even if the caravan's transaction was taken, the gross profit that their tribe could earn was tighter than six thousand gold salsa. In terms of expenses, the four thousand gold salsa is already in the sky, but this wood carving was surprised by Leo's offer of five thousand gold salsa.
"Are you kidding me?" Gu Sang said with a slightly gloomy face.
"Do you think a singular object with magical power is not worth five thousand gold salsa?" Leo asked rhetorically.
At this moment, Gu Sang realized that it was impossible for him to check for leaks. Obviously, the other party knew the value and effect of this thing.
If he hadn’t seen Leo before, Gusang might still have some evil intentions to the wood carving directly from Leo, but after seeing the attitude of the car owner towards Leo and Leo’s performance, he knew that This person is probably not as simple as it seems on the surface. The other party is likely to be the kind of person with special abilities in the legend, because only this kind of talent will carelessly give items with special abilities to others at will.
Gu Sang was silent for a moment, lowered his posture, and said: "I hope Mr. Leo can keep this set of wood carvings for a few days, and I will immediately get enough money to buy it~EbookFREE.me~ Can you get it together?" Lei Ou took out the box with the wood carving and opened it to Gusang, saying: "There are four more here, but 20,000 Jinsa is not a small number."
Seeing the four carved wooden sculptures in the box, Gu Sang's breath increased a lot, and his eyes showed a strong possessiveness, but fortunately the reason still remained, so that he could calm down and did nothing wrong.
After that, he hurriedly left Leo’s pack car and returned to his tribe’s camp. Then he quickly wrote something in his tent, stuffed them into the cloth sac, and grabbed one from the cage. Only the messenger eagle, tied the bag to its chest, and went out to release it.
According to Gu Sang's estimate, the messenger eagle will reach the tribe at most at night. By that time, the tribe should be able to raise enough funds to get the four wooden carvings before reaching the Kugang City.
Gu Sang’s vision was very good, but he didn’t find that he was leaving Leo’s car in a hurry, his expression was a bit wrong, and what he did after leaving was very abnormal. In the eyes of some caring people, he already guessed Some things, and these caring people are also interested in wood carving, so their attention is also focused on Leo.
