Guan Heng asked casually: "Old Huo, look at you in a hurry, what are you going to do?"
"I plan to go to the magic weapon equipment trade fair in Digong City." Hodley said with a smile: "I just came out of the mansion and am going to the North City Gate."
Hoadley said to Guan Heng without any secret: "Mrs. Cyndia's birthday is coming soon. We, the guards and servants in the mansion, have received a lot of care from her on weekdays, so we all pooled some money together and planned to provide for Cyndia." Madam, pick a suitable birthday gift.”
"It turns out that Madam's birthday is coming soon..." Guan Heng tilted his head and thought for a while, then murmured to himself: "I heard Yulijia say before that her mother seems to be here these days."
"So, I specifically asked for leave to go to the Digon Fair to buy gifts." Hodley blinked and said, "But now I'm in a bit of a dilemma."
Pu Lang next to him asked: "Huh? It's difficult to buy a gift? What's going on?"
"Alas, we are a rough guy and don't know much about Madam's preferences." Hoadley scratched his head and said, "It's really hard to decide when it comes to choosing gifts."
"That's right..." Guan Heng touched his chin and thought for a moment. He suddenly had an idea and said, "Did you know that Mrs. Cyndia has a four-foot-long white staff?"
"I know, because Madam often wipes the staff, everyone in the house has seen it." Hoadley asked inexplicably: "What does this have to do with the gift?"
"The top of Madam Cyndia's staff originally had a 'Stone of Reason' inlaid in it, but it was later shattered to save Yuliga." Guan Heng said with a smile: "I guess Madam must want a new inlaid Philosopher’s Stone, you might as well choose a gift in this regard.”
"Also, we are also planning to go to the trade fair in Digong City. Hodley, let's go together together." Pu Lang said, and looked at Hodley carefully. He thought to himself: "This big guy must be very strong. It’s just right to leave all the moving and lifting work to him along the way, and I can also get several free bodyguards.”
"That's not bad." After hearing what Pu Lang said, Hoadley nodded in agreement: "Okay, then let's go together."
So the three of them first bought some items on the street, and then returned to the Baron's Mansion. They called Meilu with them, and everyone prepared their mounts. The group of four headed towards Digong, the capital of King Kauru, a hundred miles east. The small town set off.
Since there was plenty of time, everyone was moving forward slowly and freely. At this time, Baron Plan began to ask Meilu questions about some fire magic issues, and the two began a heated discussion.
"Huh?" Guan Heng suddenly noticed that Hodley at the front was covering his forehead with his hands and looking forward, so he asked: "Old Huo, what are you looking at?"
"Not far ahead... there seems to be a dark column of smoke rising." Hoadley muttered, "I don't know what it is."
"Really?" Guan Heng had been thinking about the problem immediately. Hearing Hodley's reminder, he noticed the situation on the other side. He frowned and said, "Something's wrong. I'll go over and take a look first."
As he spoke, Guan Heng tugged on the horse's reins and shouted: "You guys wait here for a while, I'll be back soon."
"I'll go too." Driven by curiosity, Meilu couldn't help but said, followed closely behind Guan Heng, and galloped away, leaving only Hoadley and Pu Lang.
The next moment, Guan Heng and Mei Lu had arrived at the scene of the fire. It turned out that a carriage was burned by fire, and four people were lying on the ground. Where they lay, blood was flowing around them, and their heads, faces, and limbs were all covered with swords and weapons. Traces of injury.
"Hey!" Guan Heng jumped off the horse first and walked to a middle-aged fat man in rich clothes. The man was unconscious. Guan Heng felt his breath and whispered: "This one is not dead yet."
"Guan Heng, I, I..." Meilu took a few steps back and stammered: "I can't see blood, otherwise I will run away."
"You are really troublesome." Guan Heng muttered: "If I had known better, I wouldn't have asked you to follow me."
Guan Heng said, first he picked up the unconscious fat man, then threw him on Meilu's horse, and then said to her: "There is no blood on this fat man. Take him to Hodley first and let the fat man wake up." wide awake."
"Okay, what about you?" Meilu asked, holding the horse's reins, "What are you still doing here?"
Guan Heng said: "I have to see what's going on here. Let's take Fatty back quickly."
After Meilu left, Guan Heng waved his hand and completely dispersed the fire on the carriage into fire elements, then put it into his body. After checking the carriage, he found that it was an ordinary businessman's car, but the horses and the people on the carriage were All the luggage is gone.
"It seems that the businessman encountered bandits and robbers." Guan Heng thought to himself: "These bandits are quite ruthless. They kill people and steal goods, leaving no one alive."
Glancing at the ground, Guan Heng found that the car was surrounded by messy horse hoof prints. Finally, these horses went straight to the northwest. Guan Heng shook his head: "Oh, it's not easy to deal with this matter now. I'll ask you when I get back." Let’s ask the fat man.”
He dug a deep pit and buried the bodies of the three servants. Guan Heng got on his horse and went to find Meilu and Pu Lang. When he got there, Pu Lang came up to him and said, "You are back, do you know? You saved an acquaintance of mine!"
"An acquaintance?" Guan Heng asked curiously, "Who is this fat man?"
"Well, it's the store we just visited, Mr. Hyde, the owner of the largest magical equipment store in the capital." With a bit of gloom on his face, Pu Lang's mouth twitched, and then he continued: "You Do you know what happened? Is it a vendetta? "
"No, it's probably Mr. Hyde and his party who were robbed by horse thieves on the way to Digong City." Guan Heng frowned and said, "How is he doing now?"
At this moment, Mei Lu and Hodley, who were taking care of Fatty Hyde, shouted from not far away: "Guan Heng, Pu Lang, Mr. Fat is awake!"
Pu Lang was the first to run up to the fat man who was lying on the roadside. He leaned down and asked, "Boss Hyde, can you still recognize me?"
"Uh... you are... Baron Plan?!" Fatty Hyde frowned, squinted his small green bean-like eyes for a long time, and then said: "Of course I recognize you, you are in my store I've already received credit several times..."
"Pfft! Hahahahaha——" After hearing this, Meilu, Guan Heng and Howard all burst into laughter.
"You guys, why are you laughing!" Pu Lang looked embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. However, when he saw the miserable appearance of the fat man, his heart softened again, so he asked: "What on earth are you doing?" Already?"
