Just when Jiang Bai changed his clothes and cleaned the pile of antiques, a man dressed like a businessman hurried over.
His skin was a little dark, probably caused by the wind and sun from traveling around.
He was wearing a robe that was very common in Sumeru, and his hair was rough and messy with a turban.
He was a little out of breath from running, so he asked the two of them as soon as he came:
"Did you see a box?"
"box?"
Jiang Bai raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at the box placed next to him.
As soon as he fished out the box, someone came over. It was hard not to suspect that this person had ulterior motives.
"Didn't see it."
He continued to clean antiques and told lies.
Hutao was lying on the lounge chair next to him, holding a glass of juice in his hand, with a big parasol above him.
Although the sun in this forest is mostly blocked by the canopy of trees, it is still necessary to block the rain that may come at any time.
After hearing the conversation here, she raised her head, sat upright and held her cheek to watch the fun.
Does anyone want to seize food from the tiger's mouth?
interesting.
This man was a little embarrassed when he saw that Jiang Bai couldn't take advantage of it. But Random naturally turned his attention to the box next to him.
He pretended to be surprised, "This box is the box I'm looking for!"
"Great, I finally found it!"
"Your box? That's for you."
Jiang Bai reached out and poured out the antiques in the box, and handed him the wooden box that was still stained with a lot of mud.
The businessman's expression was a bit uncontrollable.
This is completely different from what the boss thought.
"The things inside are mine too."
Jiang Bai put his hands on his hips and was very unhappy.
"This is obviously my thing, but as soon as I came here I said it was yours. If you call it, will he respond?"
The mercenary disguised as a businessman couldn't bear it anymore and returned to his true nature in a matter of seconds.
"This is what my caravan lost. Boy, are you looking for trouble?"
"You said you lost it because you lost it? I also said that Jingshan Palace belongs to me."
Jiang Bai rolled up his sleeves, shook off the water on his hands, and moved toward the mercenary step by step with an expressionless expression.
"If you want to rob, just say so, no need to beat around the bush."
The mercenary gritted his teeth and took a step back due to Jiang Bai's momentum.
Probably because he was frightened and a little angry.
He put his fingers in his mouth, blew a loud whistle, then took out two scimitars from his back and attacked directly.
"Why am I trying to rob you today?"
"We have lots of ideas, let's work together!"
There was a loud roar from the tree behind him, and seven or eight mercenaries rushed out of the forest.
Jiang Bai curled his lips downwards, and Bai Yuan on his arm quickly turned into a firearm in his hand.
boom! boom! boom!
Thunder element bullets were fired from the barrel of the gun, and the mercenaries who had just rushed out fell one after another, and they fell very fast.
The numbness of electric current spread all over their bodies, and the feeling of electric shock made their bodies tremble and they couldn't help but cry out.
The mercenary who took action first raised his scimitar and looked at all this in shock.
The thick rock elements formed a rock armor on his body. Except for his head, which could still move, all other limbs were sealed in the rock and unable to move.
He thought about the possibility of being defeated, but he really didn't expect to lose so quickly.
They haven't even used their trump card yet, so it would be outrageous to fall down just like this!
Jiang Bai hasn't met someone who overestimates his abilities for a while.
Under normal circumstances, treasure thieves who like to rob people will choose to avoid him when they see that he has the Eye of God on him.
After all, people with the Eye of God can use elemental power, and their strength is unknown. If they rob someone rashly, they will probably fall into a pit.
It turns out that Xumi's mercenaries don't seem to be very discerning.
He has shown the Eye of God so obviously, yet he still can't control his greed and come to trouble him?
"Tell me, who are you? What do you want to do?"
"Old, boss..." Lao San, who was blocked by Jiang Bai with rocks, looked back with difficulty, his expression uglier than crying.
I encountered a tough problem today.
The strong man who was called Boss stood up while holding on to the tree.
He had a desert-style braid on his head and was shirtless, showing off his strong muscles.
"We are the Gilded Brigade!"
"If I remember correctly, people who come out of the desert are collectively called people from the Gilded Brigade."
"You're right to say that. Most people refer to us Sand People as the Gilded Brigade. Over time, that's how we called ourselves."
The Gilded Brigade is a very loose organization. It brings all the Sand People together and does not impose any restrictions or requirements on them. It is a symbolic organization that holds each other together for warmth.
As the defense force of Xumi City, the [Thirty-Man Group] is the mercenary organization with the largest number of people and the best treatment in the brigade.
There are many other small groups. These people spontaneously form small mercenary groups, or take on tasks to earn commissions, or rob merchants, or look for treasures.
In Xumi, which does not have a strong military force, there are many such people in the wild forests.
"So you are eyeing this box I fished out."
"That's right."
The boss of the mercenary group is very honest.
"We can't defeat you anyway. If you want to kill or behead you, please listen to whatever you want... it's up to you."
"If you want to kill or behead him, please do as you wish." Hutao couldn't hold back and corrected him.
"Oh, if you want to kill or behead, I'll write it down." The boss of the mercenary group immediately took out a small notebook and prepared to write down this word.
He very humbly stepped forward and asked Jiang Bai for advice, "How to write that cut?"
Jiang Bai was a little confused.
"Are you aware of defeat at all? Why are you still learning lyrics?"
Also, although he just fired and controlled his power, is your recovery speed too fast?
Look at the little brother next to you, he's still wailing there.
"You don't understand. For us god-forsaken people, knowledge is extremely precious."
For the Order, knowledge is precious. They restrict the circulation of knowledge and isolate the desert from the palace of knowledge.
And books are even more expensive.
And it is even more difficult for people from these small tribes who came from the desert to receive education.
He is thirsty for knowledge.
Although in the eyes of many people, this is just a simple word recognition.
"I can't beat you anyway, so I might as well learn a few more words. In this way, my knowledge will be increased before I die."
Regarding this mercenary's desire to learn, Jiang Bai was speechless for a moment.
People are really complicated.
While being able to rob him without hesitation, he was also able to pursue knowledge so devoutly.
Jiang Bai reached out and helped him write the few words he didn't know on paper.
"Oh, that's what it says."
