Lu Xi and Clyde looked at each other. Although her face was pale and no blood showed, her eyes were clear and not at all drowsy.
After counting, Lu Xi traveled to another world, and she only had two things to rely on. One was her pearls and gems of unknown value but definitely not cheap, and the other was her physical condition refreshed at seven o'clock every morning.
The latter ensured that Lu Xi would not die easily in another world, while the former provided the basis for Lu Xi to live in another world.
As for the so-called aristocratic status, the golden finger of the farm far away in the horizon is all illusory to Lu Xi at present and cannot bring her any use.
Even though she does have a noble status, there are so many countries in the world, who knows which kingdom she is a noble from.
That is to say, the farm cheat was just a visible and intangible mirage until Lu Xi completed the novice mission and fully activated the cheat.
Lu Xi was really moved by the red baby dragon and wanted to help it, but at the same time she was also thinking about whether she could get any benefits from helping the red baby dragon.
Lu Xi's original plan was very clear. She would stay in Kuva Village for another five days. After the patrol team from Weiguli Town arrived, she would follow the patrol team to Weiguli Town and then look for opportunities in Weiguli Town. Way to get to the farm.
This idea doesn't seem to be a good one, and it won't be less troublesome. After all, Lu Xi's "noble" status will definitely be notified to the top leaders of Weiguli Town, and Lu Xi doesn't know anything about his family. Problems can easily be exposed.
She couldn't tell which country her family was in, and she couldn't tell who was in the family or what they did. Village chief Lu Li didn't ask Lu Xi tentatively, just because he didn't know much about the nobles. Understand, how much can a trainee knight know even if he has never seen the nobles in person?
And even if Lu Xi can hide all this, she still has to find a way to obtain a map, find out the location of her golden finger farm, and then find someone who can escort her to the farm. In comparison, this is actually the most important thing the most important.
After all, this alien world is full of monsters. They are not like wild animals on earth. Monsters can really use elemental magic.
Lucky for Lu Xi, she only encountered one low-level lion monster in the previous month, and Xiao Yuan followed her, keeping vigil for her to explore the road and find a safe place to live. But even so, she still encountered many dangers to her life.
There is no need for any powerful monsters, just the difficult terrain is enough to make Lu Xi suffer a lot. If it were not for his body's ability to refresh, a wound infection or eating the wrong food would be enough to kill Lu Xi.
Lu Xi is just an ordinary human being with no abilities. In such a dangerous world, if she doesn't find someone else to escort her to the farm, how long can she survive on the road?
Originally, Lu Xi and the Dragon Hunting Mercenary Group were supposed to be in a state of non-interference. After all, they were not on the same journey. Lu Xi had the label of a noble on his body, and the mercenaries knew as soon as they heard that they could not go together with the nobles. crowd.
Lu Xi was also worried that he would be exposed in front of this group of mercenaries. At first glance, they were not the ignorant ordinary civilians.
Therefore, Lu Xi has been avoiding in-depth contact all this time, and has only learned some information from the sidelines to add to her own world view. However, things often do not develop according to people's expectations, so now she is sitting across from this group of mercenaries to have a conversation.
Logically speaking, Lu Xi was seriously injured and should rest first. After her injuries healed and her condition stabilized, we could discuss those things.
But all kinds of things happened in a hurry, which did not give her the time and opportunity to rest assuredly.
First, Xiao Yuan stole the egg. Now the outcome of the matter is clear. But at that time, Lu Xi faced a group of mercenaries who regarded Xiao Yuan as a thief. If she left to rest and recuperate, those people would take advantage of her absence and execute her at will. Xiaoyuan, she couldn't say anything.
Lu Xi didn't understand this group of people, so how could he know what they would do? He could only plan for the worst outcome, not to mention that low-level monsters themselves were a threat. No one except Lu Xi would protect Xiao Yuan.
Could it be that she, a young lady with no strength and no other means of force to rely on, could still fight against this group of powerful mercenaries?
So Lu Xi gritted his teeth and refused to leave until the Xiao Yuan matter was determined to be over.
Then the baby dragon hatched, causing a commotion - Lu Xi wanted to leave and leave the baby alone, but the baby dragon couldn't let Lu Xi leave because it was very clingy.
Lu Xi could only find another place to resolve the matter of the young dragon.
At this time, she didn't care about her wounds anymore. The bleeding had stopped anyway, and she couldn't faint for a while, so she might as well finish everything in one go.
Clyde looked at Lu Xi seriously. He didn't like nobles. It was easy to see that he ignored Lu Xi more and did not take the initiative to inquire about Lu Xi. As long as it was not in front of him, What he did had nothing to do with him, so he didn't mind what Lu Xi did or wanted to do at all.
Some mercenaries are willing to please the nobles. Even if they cannot become knights of the nobles, they still hope to do things for the nobles, even if they are strong enough that they do not need to respect those so-called nobles.
Firstly, the remuneration given by the nobles is generous enough. A random sum of money is more profitable than killing dozens of monsters in the wild. Secondly, when you work for the nobles, you will encounter much less danger and your life will be more stable. , who wouldn’t want to live a relaxed life.
You just need to pay a little conscience and occasionally do some shameless things.
There are also some mercenaries who hate the nobles very much. Most of them have tragic experiences related to the nobles, so that they can no longer live and can only become mercenaries, but even so, they will not do anything to the nobles. Except for those black mercenaries.
As long as a mercenary still wants to live a normal life, he will not provoke the nobles unless he is strong enough that the nobles do not even dare to fight against him.
Perhaps in the story, the mercenary will always be a very free and unrestrained character, but in fact, the mercenary is far from that beautiful. It is just a profession chosen by a group of people to make a living.
Clyde didn't like the nobles, but it couldn't be said that he didn't hate them. He would also accept the bounty offered by the nobles, but only if the bounty was large enough, just like this time about the dragon egg.
The reason why they say that their mission failed after the dragon egg hatched is because Clyde knew the noble who placed the bounty. The purpose of the other party's bounty on the dragon egg was not to hatch young dragons and raise a powerful demon. Favor.
But I don't know where I heard that you can extend your life by eating dragon eggs, become a "half-dragon" with dragon blood, and gain half of the dragon's life.
Dragons are not very long-lived creatures, at least not as long as the elves, but dragons can still live for thousands of years without dying, while humans can only live for less than a hundred years.
Clyde actually didn't want to accept the reward, but the offer was too much, and it wasn't something that would hurt other people. He was also really short of money.
But now, the dragon egg has hatched into a baby dragon. Even if the baby dragon is submitted to the other party as a bounty item, the other party will not admit it, and they will not even pay them much money.
After telling the other party about the young dragon, it was easy to guess what happened to the young dragon. The other party wanted to eat the dragon eggs, so how could he let the young dragon go? It wouldn't be long before the young dragon would become a plate of food on the other party's table.
Clyde is not a crazy person. He kills monsters that hurt people. Although dragons are also a kind of monsters, ordinary monsters cannot be compared with dragons.
First, dragons are intelligent monsters. Unlike those ignorant monsters that only know how to hurt people and eat their flesh, they can even learn human language, talk to humans, and have wisdom that is even smarter than humans.
The second is that dragons basically do not take the initiative to hurt people. There is not much difference between humans and ants to dragons and ants to humans. In the attacks made by dragons, humans were the first to anger the dragons, and then they were attacked by the dragons. revenge.
It was impossible for Clyde to attack such a smart cub. Even as a mercenary, Clyde had his own persistence. The dragon egg could be defended as a "dead thing", but a living cub Long, how could he do it?
If the noble lady Lu Xi was not here, perhaps Clyde and the others would be thinking about how to send the baby dragon back without being discovered by the ice dragon.
Maybe selling the baby dragon is a way out, but the journey of transporting the baby dragon will never be easy. The baby dragon will not just follow them and wait for them to buy it.
But they met Lu Xi, and Miss Lucy was a good choice for them. She was kind, willing to protect a monster cub with her own life, and had considerable property. Although nobles are not necessarily very rich, She is an aristocratic lady who owns her own farm, so how could she not have any property.
As for how Clyde knew... Village Chief Luli returned home last night and shared the news with his wife. Ayina heard about it, and then Clyde and the others naturally found out.
Even the news spread from the villagers' mouths is even more exaggerated.
Lu Xi herself may not even know how she became a "super rich woman".
Although Clyde was also concerned about Lu Xi's health, some things had to be done as soon as possible. For example, at this moment, if everyone was in a daze, he didn't want to trick the other party into paying for the baby dragon. How long will it take?
They don't think there's anything wrong with defrauding nobles of their money. After all, nobles' money comes from exploiting common people. Even if Miss Lucy is so kind, does her money have anything to do with herself?
Of course Lu Xi understood their thoughts, which was really easy to see through, but she suddenly thought of something more. Since the Dragon Hunting Mercenary Group dared to steal dragon eggs, their own strength must be guaranteed, and the weak would not dare to take it. this task.
Then there should be no better person to escort her to the farm.
The most important thing is that Lu Xi doesn't have to socialize with the powerful people in Weiguli Town, doesn't have to go to great lengths to conceal his identity, and doesn't have to waste time waiting for any patrols to arrive.
Isn't this a very suitable reason for contact to redeem the baby dragon? It wouldn't appear that Lu Xi had any ulterior motives in finding them, and there was no need for Lu Xi to make up any suitable excuses.
Isn't the ready excuse right here?
"Why?" Clyde and Lu Xi looked at each other.
"Can you just bring dragons into the city?" Lu Xi asked back, if dragons could appear openly in human cities, there wouldn't be so many bad legends about dragons, only so-and-so rumors would spread. Great deeds with dragons.
Clyde's eyes showed a moment of guilt, White also turned his head, and the others looked at the sky and the earth, cough...the number of their dragon-hunting mercenary group was not bad, so they sent half of them into the city to replenish supplies. It can still be done.
Seeing their reactions, Lu Xi sneered, "If Long was so easy to take action, you wouldn't have to come to me."
Then Lu Xi happily admitted, "I can't bear it, and I am willing to pay the money to buy it for freedom, but now I can't even guarantee my own safety. Buying it will only add trouble to myself, and I can't even enter the city easily." "
Lu Xi looked at White again, "Xiao Yuan and I were once dependent on each other. I am willing to sacrifice my life to protect each other, but it is only a one-sided relationship with her. Could it be that I would choose to sacrifice myself because of it?"
White's expression froze, then he quickly put on a smile and was about to speak.
Lu Xi didn't give him a chance to speak, and spoke very confidently, "The most important thing is, how can you be sure that I have so much money on me."
Maybe the jewelry Lu Xi was carrying was worth a thousand gold coins, but she would definitely not admit it at this time.
"I have been living in the wild so far, and I only have a few pieces of jewelry that are of some value." Lu Xi sat on the chair, leaning back, and his eyes naturally had a look of disdain.
"If you want one thousand gold coins, you have to go home with me. What I give you for this one thousand gold coins is not the price, but the price of escorting me home."
Of course, Lu Xi didn't know the price of hiring someone to escort him, but in short, one thousand gold coins was definitely not much more. Even in modern times, he had never seen anyone hiring a bodyguard for a hundred million yuan.
As for what to do if she can't pay back then... let's wait until then. At worst, she won't believe it if she writes an IOU. After activating the golden finger, she still won't be able to make a fortune.
White's entire expression suddenly froze. He talked to Lu Xi as a noble lady, but he did forget that this noble lady came from nowhere and could not have any money on her.
On the contrary, Clyde remained calm, thought briefly, and nodded, "Okay."
"I wonder where Miss Lucy's home is?"
"I have no idea."
