"Does it hurt?"
The scene was quiet for a while, and then several other mercenaries from the Motie Mercenary Group who also woke up early asked in unison.
"pain……"
The mercenary who was the first to wake up touched his face in a daze, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, glanced at the dozens of brothers who had not yet woken up around him, and then looked at the wounded soldiers not far away. The Motie Mercenary Group finally set their sights on Xiao Ding and Xiao Li.
Nothing was said.
The tears just fell down in a flash.
Lips quivering.
He seemed to want to say something.
But in the end, it just made a little choking sound.
Seeing this scene, the other mercenaries of the Motie Mercenary Group, who had woken up relatively late, could not help but shed tears.
But it's okay.
Their brains are enough.
Know to ask others rather than do it yourself.
The choking sound gradually spread.
It's not just the choking sounds of these awakened people.
Not far away, choking sounds also sounded from the Motie mercenary group, where everyone was injured. However, the choking sounds that sounded at this time were no longer sad, but filled with the joy of surviving the disaster.
It seemed that they were disturbed by the increasingly louder choking sounds. More and more corpses of the mercenaries of the Motie Mercenary Group who had been lying on the ground gradually regained consciousness, started to work staggeringly, and then , was hugged by his comrades and companions with a confused look on his face.
Finally, he gradually came back to his senses.
Remembering what happened when he died.
Remember the fact that you are still alive.
Xiao Ding's eyes turned black.
Only by grabbing Xiao Li's shoulders could he barely stand.
Xiao Li was in a similar state to Xiao Ding, feeling as if his heart was about to jump out of his throat. He and Xiao Ding supported each other and stood staggering in place.
The vigilance I felt when I realized I was surrounded...
Exhaustion in the face of stress…
I was overjoyed when I saw Lu Yuan...
The relief when a teammate comes back to life...
The four ups and downs of emotions made it difficult for Xiao Ding, who was already injured and short of blood, to recover for a while. However, his physical fitness at the Dou Master level was still acceptable. Xiao Ding was only dizzy for a short two or three seconds, and then gradually recovered. Returned to normal consciousness.
After regaining consciousness, Xiao Ding carefully arranged his clothes.
Immediately, take two deep breaths.
He bowed slowly to Lu Yuan.
But I never thought...
Lu Yuan raised his hand to support him...
"You're welcome."
"Let's not talk about the relationship between Xiao Yanzi and I."
"Just talk about the deal we just made."
"You owe me a favor."
"So, you don't have to thank me."
Lu Yuan explained this.
A calm look on his face.
It seems that this is the case.
"But is Xiao Ding that kind of ignorant person?"
Xiao Ding did not bow again.
He bowed his hands to Lu Yuan respectfully.
Immediately, he said in a deep voice: "If Brother Lu needs to go through fire and water, you must tell me first. Don't dare to say anything else. Xiao Ding still dares to die!"
Xiao Ding's IQ is pretty good.
He knew that with his small arms and legs, even if Lu Yuan encountered any trouble and needed his support, it would be difficult for him to provide real support.
but……
Don’t strive for perfection, but strive to do your best...
Xiao Ding thinks he can still do it!
Furthermore, from Xiao Ding's point of view, although he could not see what kind of big shot Lu Yuan was, at least he was not someone who could compete with the likes of Dou Wang and Dou Huang, although he did not know a strong man of this level. How did he become friends with his third brother Xiao Yan? However, the other party had no need to lie to him!
"There is no need to lie to him" can actually explain everything.
There is no such thing as love and hate for no reason in the world.
The reason why many people think there is is mainly because they fail to see the internal logical chain, which is some small reasons.
For example...
A person is embarrassed in public...
Instead of resenting the person who played tricks on him, he instead resented the people who were watching him. This cannot be called unreasonable, but because his cowardly character played an absolute role in it, making him habitually vent his anger on others. .
In this process, character is a logical chain that most people cannot grasp. Therefore, the unknown logical chain does not exist, because the bizarre facts guided by these unknown logical chains are also It doesn't count as for no reason.
Just like many reborn people, they take precautions before they happen.
On the surface, it seems to be nip in the bud.
In fact, what if the memory of the reborn person is an illusion spun by a powerful being?
The reborn person foolishly made the chess piece, thinking that it would eliminate the disaster in advance. In fact, it only fulfilled part of the plan of the chess player!
The truth may be so cruel!
After all, the definition of presence or absence has always been difficult!
Xiao Ding didn't know these truths.
However, he clearly saw the essence - there is no need for the strong to lie to the weak, so there is no need for Lu Yuan to lie to him.
In this way...
Let’s not talk about what will happen in the future…
Now, their Xiao family is about to take off!
Giving a promise at this time would not make Xiao Yanzi embarrassed in front of Lu Yuan, even if it did not make him more impressed.
For Xiao Ding, this is enough.
certainly.
It would be wrong to say that Xiao Ding's thoughts are all so dark.
There is still a theory of yin and yang in heaven and earth.
How can humans not have the principles of yin and yang?
There is no conflict between having fair and upright thoughts and having dark thoughts. The main thing is to see whether a person is dominated by upright thoughts or by dark thoughts. These two choices can determine whether a person is right or evil in the eyes of outsiders. What is right is evil.
This is also the principle of "discussing the deeds but not the heart".
And Xiao Ding's upright thoughts are obviously stronger than the dark thoughts.
The previous promise came from Xiao Ding’s sincerity.
He really couldn't help Lu Yuan.
However, he really dared to die for Lu Yuan.
pity……
There are always some ancient things that gradually disappear in the long river of time...
A single promise can be worth a thousand pieces of gold.
Where righteousness comes, life and death follow.
Lu Yuan gradually learned not to believe in these things. To be precise, he learned not to put all his hopes in these things.
Therefore, he actually didn't care whether Xiao Ding was grateful to him. Without his deliberate delay, these mercenaries might not have to die.
To put it bluntly, everyone still only saw the surface.
And he...
But he is pretending to be ignorant...
Therefore, Lu Yuan did not answer Xiao Ding.
Even if Xiao Ding truly made his promise.
He nodded calmly.
He glanced at the people who were still cheering not far away.
Turning around, he reminded Xiao Ding and Xiao Li: "It's time to pack up and go."
Xiao Ding gradually calmed down after hearing this.
He looked at Xiao Li who had also calmed down.
Then, he loudly greeted the mercenaries of the Motie Mercenary Group to prepare to evacuate. By the way, they would take the weapons of the snake men with them, and also search for the supplies on the snake men.
Najie is only available to a few snake people and fighting spirits.
After spending four or five minutes searching.
Xiao Ding picked up these Najies and did not dare to touch the materials inside. He didn't even look at them and walked quickly to Lu Yuan.
And behind Xiao Ding...
It was Rob, the leader of the Sand Mercenary Group who came uninvited...
The frightened little expression is quite funny.
Especially when facing Xiao Li's gaze.
He no longer had the high spirits he had before.
Instead, it was full of embarrassment and flattery.
"Keep it."
"It's no use asking for these things."
He threw these Na rings in his hand twice like throwing pebbles. Then, Lu Yuan threw the Na rings back to Xiao Ding with his backhand. He turned over and sat behind him. He had experienced the baptism of war. on the dilapidated carriage.
No words were spoken.
But Xiao Ding and Xiao Li both understood.
This is what it means to urge departure.
Logically speaking, carriages should not exist here.
Tagore Desert, as its name suggests, is a large desert. Generally speaking, camels are the mainstream means of transportation here.
However, although camels can carry more weight than horses, there are far fewer transportation tools suitable for camels than horses. You can see horses pulling carts, but it is difficult to see camels pulling carts. scene, because Camel does not support this thing.
But……
The power of a transport is that it gives you extra transport space!
Although there are storage utensils such as "Najie" in this world, storage utensils like this that involve space are not something ordinary people can make. Even if they master the corresponding materials and production methods, this kind of storage utensils cannot be made. Object-type appliances are not too cheap either.
Moreover, the larger the storage space, the higher the price will naturally be.
Use Na Ring to transport goods?
It's not impossible.
However, the value of the goods must be high.
That's not something that can be measured with money.
Only elixirs of the sixth grade or above are worthy of being sent to each other through Najie. Otherwise, each auction house or alchemist association has its own channel and will not use this stable and efficient but high transportation fee. Transport method.
After all, they can all use the Najie for transportation. It should be reasonable to have a Douwang to send each other, right?
How much is the appropriate labor cost for a fighting king?
Just thinking about it can make your head tingle.
What's more, the examples mentioned above include some similar examples, and they are all high-priced goods. It is obviously impossible for the goods transported by Xiao Ding and Xiao Li to reach such a high value, and it is reasonable to transport them by horse-drawn carriages.
certainly.
Xiao Ding was not transporting goods this time.
Instead, hunt some magical beasts, collect their fur and magic cores, and by the way, collect some medicinal materials unique to the Tagor Desert.
】
Unfortunately, when I came back, I was surrounded.
After a battle, although the final result was successful and no one died so far, a lot of the collected things were indeed destroyed, and even two-thirds of the carriage was destroyed.
The war horse ran most of the way.
The war horses left behind today were all captured nearby by the mercenaries of the Motie Mercenary Group.
It is worth mentioning: the carriage is not used by the Motie Mercenary Group just to carry goods. In the Tagore Desert where danger may occur at any time, it is a wise choice to appropriately save physical strength and fighting spirit. Therefore, When they came here, the Motie Mercenary Group basically came in carriages, and when they returned, they usually chose to walk.
As for necessary supplies such as food and water...
Naturally, they were dressed with the Najies of Xiao Ding, Xiao Li and others!
Otherwise, if Najie only packs trophies, I am afraid that even if the Motie Mercenary Group has a good income, they will starve to death in the end and die of thirst. Otherwise, they will die of poisoning from eating something unclean.
Tagore Desert is the hometown of snake people!
Eating other people’s food on their territory…
You are really not afraid of being poisoned, right?
Besides, this is an alien version of tunnel warfare!
Perhaps, a strong man like Lu Yuan can ignore all obstacles, but Xiao Ding, Xiao Li, and all practitioners who are not Dou Wang still need to abide by some rules in the Tagor Desert.
One of the things...
This is something that countless mercenaries have gained with their lives...
It’s called: Try not to eat anything in the desert!
Prickly pear?
do not eat!
Scorpions and snakes?
do not eat!
water?
Try not to drink it either!
Because no one knows whether the snake people have poisoned any water source. After all, the snake people play with poison. Even if a child of the snake people accidentally drinks the water, as long as the poison is poisoned, If the person takes action, he will naturally be able to detoxify quickly.
not to mention……
The snake people also like to administer chronic poison...
This caused all the humans who entered the Tagore Desert to complain endlessly.
Therefore, no matter from which point of view, food and water sources are of the highest level and should be put into the ring the most. Secondly, there are the magic cores in various monsters and some particularly precious materials, such as Although some worthless materials can be gathered together, a carriage is the suitable place for them to belong.
This is also the reason why most mercenaries return home fully loaded.
Otherwise, who wouldn’t want to come back easily?
The question is, can they afford so many donat rings!
but……
If Lu Yuan sat on the carriage to rest...
So far, no one has dared to express their objections!
The mercenaries of the Motie Mercenary Group would rather carry some of the trophies themselves than let these trophies affect Lu Yuan's rest. After all, Lu Yuan's ability to bring the dead back to life and the strength of the lowest Dou Wang have already been revealed. These mercenaries were impressed in an instant. This is often the case in the cruel world. No one wants to stand alone if they have big legs to hold them!
It can be said that even Xiao Ding's prestige in the heart of the Motie Mercenary Group is slightly weaker than that of Lu Yuan. However, Xiao Li is also a person who can't hold his tongue. I don't know when Lu Yuan and Xiao Yan were It was because of the relationship between friends that it was revealed, which made Xiao Ding's prestige rise to a higher level.
Therefore, if I have to say it, only Xiao Li can be regarded as turning from the second in charge to the third in charge.
congratulations……
Well, no...
It's fate that makes people worthy of sighing...
However, Lu Yuan got into the car like this, which made Rob, the leader of the Sand Mercenary Group, very anxious, but he didn't dare to stop the car, and he didn't even dare to threaten Xiao Ding to stop the car. He could only bite the bullet and get on. Taking two steps forward, under Xiao Li's angry gaze, he softly begged Lu Yuan, who was sitting in the furs of a group of monsters on the carriage:
"Rob, the leader of the mercenary group in Xiasha."
"I hope senior will have mercy on you."
"I am willing to go up the mountain of swords and the sea of fire for you."
"I just ask you, senior, to resurrect my dead brothers for the sake of them."
"Can I?"
The tone was so humble that it made Xiao Li and Xiao Ding feel slightly uncomfortable.
But when they looked at the mercenaries of the Sand Mercenary Group, they understood instantly.
In the Motie Mercenary Group, the dead mercenaries were resurrected right in front of their eyes. Although it was scary, wasn't it a great luck?
Even if there is only one chance of resurrection...
Aren’t the mercenaries from the Motie Mercenary Group not dead either?
This result is actually enough to explain everything!
Besides, they all heard when Xiao Li spoke freely before. Although the Motie Mercenary Group certainly didn't have such a big deal to ask Lu Yuan to follow them, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li's younger brother Xiao Yan certainly didn't have such a big deal either. To save face, ask this mysterious Dou King to take action again and again. However, as long as this mysterious Dou King is still Xiao Yan’s friend, the mercenaries in the Motie Mercenary Group will have an opportunity with an extremely high probability. Great chance of resurrection!
what does that mean?
This means that the Motie Mercenary Group is already a hot commodity!
Moreover, it is one of a kind!
Alchemist?
What is that?
Can you bring these mercenaries back to life?
cannot?
Then just stay somewhere cool...
Rob can decide not to bow his head, but he can't stop them from bowing his head. Rob can die if he wants to, but he can't let them die!
It is inevitable to have a good relationship with the Motie Mercenary Group.
It wasn't necessary before.
But the current situation has obviously changed.
As for Rob, the leader of the Sand Mercenary Group, if he can't lower his head and prevents these brothers lying on the ground from being resurrected because of his own dignity, then even if there are hardcore people who follow Rob, they can't stop most of the Sand Mercenaries. The mercenaries of the mercenary group turned from darkness to light!
not to mention……
Once this matter is spread...
Rob's reputation is completely stinky!
No one would follow such a cold-blooded mercenary leader and continue to live a life of licking blood on the edge of a knife. After all, it is simply a psychological burden for such a cold-blooded leader to betray you or even abandon you.
Maybe that's not what Rob thinks.
But, is this important?
It doesn’t matter at all whether that’s what Rob thinks!
What matters is what other people think!
But……
"Do I need you to go up mountains of swords and seas of fire?"
Lu Yuan asked nonchalantly.
Immediately, he shook his head with disdain: "You are not even qualified to go to the mountains of swords and seas of fire for me, so how can you ask me to resurrect these people for their sake? You should know that for all strong people, human life is as important as It's a tacit rule. If I had just felt pity, I'm afraid many of you would not have survived. Instead, you would have been killed by those snakes when I captured those snake-men fighting spirits. People were killed.”
When Rob heard this, his face suddenly turned pale.
As the leader of a mercenary group, his sense of smell is still very keen. He can naturally see things that Xiao Ding can see. He knows very well that if Lu Yuan does not kill the dead members of the Sand Mercenary Group today, When these brothers were resurrected, the Sand Mercenary Group was equivalent to falling into a slow death. No matter how hard he tried, he could not save it.
to be honest……
People's hearts are broken and it's hard to lead the team...
That's probably what it means.
However, he didn't dare to continue begging.
He is human too.
He is also afraid of death.
If his prayers not only failed to make the mysterious fighting king change his mind and willing to take action, but instead angered the mysterious fighting king and caused him to lose his head and body, he would lose his wife and lose his army!
If his prayer was effective but also angered this mysterious fighting king, even if he saved the dead brothers in the Sand Mercenary Group, his death would be in vain if he hadn't even left any cubs!
It seems that whatever I do is wrong.
I don’t want to anger this mysterious fighting king...
I still want this mysterious fighting king to come to the rescue...
In just a few seconds, cold sweat fell from Rob's forehead. The more anxious he became, the more blank his mind became. Until Xiao Li caught Xiao Ding's eyes and raised his hand to slap his back, Rob suddenly came to his senses.
He glanced at Xiao Li, who had just criticized him a few times.
He glanced at the pale Xiao Ding again.
Suddenly there was some enlightenment in my heart.
The corners of the mouth feel slightly bitter.
The relationship between the Sand Mercenary Group and the Motie Mercenary Group has never been very good. He never thought that one day, he would bow to Xiao Ding, the leader of the Motie Mercenary Group!
You know, in the past, it was very difficult for the Motie Mercenary Group to survive even under the hands of the Sand Mercenary Group, and they had to be suppressed by the Sand Mercenary Group in all aspects!
Such a contrast was difficult for Rob to accept.
But reality cannot tolerate his refusal.
Rob himself is well aware of this.
After a pause, he sighed silently.
Immediately, he held his hands to Xiao Dinggong and said in a low voice: "Everyone in the Sand Mercenary Group is willing to stay away from Brother Xiao and the Desert Iron Mercenary Group under Brother Xiao from now on. I also hope that Mr. Xiao will There are a lot of people, do you think it’s okay for Brother Xiao to help this brother regardless of past grudges?”
Lu Yuan didn't interrupt.
Sitting quietly on the carriage.
When Xiao Ding saw it, he immediately knew what was going on.
What does Lu Yuan mean by not interrupting?
This means: The power of negotiation is given to you!
What does reanalysis mean?
It means: You can open your mouth like a lion!
With this promise, Xiao Ding did not hold back what he was hiding, but simply made his request in front of Rob: "The Sand Mercenary Group will be merged into Motie from now on." In the mercenary group, Xiao Ding feels that Captain Rob doesn’t want to see the Sand Mercenary Group fall apart after this incident, right?”
Rob's lips moved several times.
Several times I wanted to point at Xiao Ding's nose and curse.
However, after thinking about it carefully, I didn't dare.
Gritting his teeth silently.
Then, with an aggrieved look on his face, he replied: "Okay!"
Xiao Ding nodded.
Immediately, he bowed his hands to Lu Yuan on the carriage.
"Brother Lu, you heard it too."
"I'll just trouble you one more time."
"How about I owe you another favor?"
Lu Yuan raised his eyelids.
He raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "The favor is unnecessary."
After that, he looked at the frightened Rob: "Don't use any tricks or tricks. Someone will always come here again when I'm gone. What's more, it's your chance and blessing to work with Xiao Ding and Xiao Li." , one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, that’s all, it’s up to you to decide!”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved.
Hundreds of souls flew out of the void.
They returned to their restored bodies one after another.
Finally, wake up slowly.
"okay."
"If you have nothing else to do, let's go quickly!"
"A mouthful of sand."
"It's time to take a rest."
Leaning on the black snakeskin bag, Lu Yuan knocked the snakeskin bag hard, and the snakeskin bag that had just reacted became quiet again.
The convoy drove slowly towards Black Desert City.
With full of surprise and excitement.
Take Lu Yuan with you.
as well as……
Queen Medusa was knocked unconscious along the way.
