Chapter 1000 Desperate Katie
Although Katie worked very hard, but she was not good at talking, and Boss Che was also very determined. Even if Katie offered double the salary, he was still unwilling, and neither were the others.
In fact, it's not that Fangzheng can't understand Boss Che's thoughts. They are very clear about their own positioning. If this is a game, then they are the NPCs who are killed by the boss when the boss appears to show their power and give the protagonist an excuse and reason to fight. Obviously, Boss Che himself understands this.
Therefore, even if Katie offered double the remuneration, they were unwilling to move on. In the end, the boss of the car even refunded half of the deposit from Katie, and then left with the other three people. Throw it there. Obviously, for them, money is very important, but it must be spent wisely.
"What should we do now?"
Looking at the carriage and Katie sitting there blankly, Kurumi sighed, she never thought that such a thing would happen.
"No way, we are here to help."
Of course, Fang Zheng couldn't just go back home like this, not to mention that he and Katie still knew each other. Although he didn't know how this local rich and thief lady ended up like this, he couldn't just watch her pitifully over there. Wipe your tears.
"That's right, we're here to help!"
Hu Tao also nodded. If it were the mercenaries born and bred in this world, I'm afraid they wouldn't think so much. Most of them do things with money. But Walnut is from modern-day Earth and is also more outgoing and warm-hearted in dealing with people, which is one of the reasons why she is very popular with others.
Fangzheng proposed, Kuangsan did not object, and Hu Tao supported, so naturally there was nothing to say, and soon everyone came in front of Katie. At this moment, the eldest lady was sitting beside the carriage wiping tears. Seeing Hu Tao and the others approaching, Katie stood up nervously.
"Please, what's the matter?"
At this moment, Katie also felt bitter. The boss of the car has left, and she can't do anything by herself. If these mercenaries are gone now, she will really be incompetent. .
"If you don't mind, how about we drive the car for you?"
And Walnut came up and expressed his thoughts straightforwardly.
"Xiaohong said that we can help. I also think this proposal is good. Since we are all in the same way, we should help each other..."
"it's okay no problem!"
At this moment, Katie was so excited that she was about to cry. She thought she had nowhere to go, but she didn't expect that it would turn out to be a bright future, so she suddenly laughed.
"Thank you for your help. After arriving in Silver City, I will definitely repay you well!"
Now that a decision has been made, the next thing for everyone to do is very simple. Although no one here, including Katie, has ever driven a car, you Fang is doing it.
She glanced over, and didn't need to let Long Wei go, those horses obediently did not dare to move, and even some of the less courageous ones almost knelt down.
Then Fangzheng just made a gesture, and the horses stood obediently and consciously, one after the other, more obedient than before.
"Amazing………"
Seeing this scene, Katie's eyes lit up, she looked at Fang Zheng adoringly, and Fang Zheng gave her a thumbs up with a smile.
"Don't worry, I'm familiar with animals. Most animals are obedient. As long as I'm around, these horses will follow us obediently, and there won't be any problems."
If the horse could talk, it would definitely raise its head and protest at this moment—who has a good relationship with whom!
However, under Fangzheng's "Longwei", the poor horses could only lower their heads and work obediently.
After solving the problem of driving, everyone soon continued on the road and moved forward.
At the beginning, Katie was somewhat worried and looked backward from time to time, but seeing the horses pulling the cart became more and more well-behaved, she soon felt relieved.
But as she moved on, Katie soon began to worry again.
Along the way, everyone encountered several caravans and travelers, and from them, Fangzheng and Hutao also got information similar to what they got from Boss Che before, even more detailed—— On the road to Gray Whale Port, three caravans were attacked in a row. There was no loss of cargo, but the caravan's guards and others suffered heavy casualties. Although Gray Whale Port is also looking for the murderer, so far So far no leads.
Since the murderer was not caught, the others naturally chose to detour as a precaution.
It has to be said that this is not good news, and Katie's mood has become worse and worse.
As I said before, bandits and bandits are a hopeless profession, and ordinary elite professionals will not do them unless they are forced to go to Liangshan or have other secrets. But only the necromancer is an exception among exceptions.
And this is also because of the characteristics of necromancers.
Necromancers are somewhat similar to scientists and doctors who study biochemistry in the real world. Regular scientists and doctors will conduct dissections on legally obtained corpses, conduct experiments, and then confirm their research through a series of animal experiments.
But some crooked, inhuman ones like 731 will use living people for experiments to test the fatality rate after infection and how to conduct human experiments more efficiently—more cruel, but also more effective.
And those fallen necromancers are like the latter, there are no corpses, we make our own corpses, we can also test new magic and various potions on living people first, and after they die, we can also try to transform them into undead creatures Or restrain the soul... All in all, for necromancers, a person, whether alive or dead, is the best research material.
To a certain extent, the purpose of robbery by necromancers is no different from that of bandits.
The only difference is that the latter seeks money, while the former seeks death.
After passing the fork in Luoshigu, they were the only ones on the whole road. Looking around, the surrounding forest was extremely gloomy. I don't know if it was an illusion, but Katie always felt that there was something peeping at them in the depths of the dark forest.
Hope is just an illusion.
Time passed by every minute and every second. Although Katie had been praying secretly in her heart, it was still dark.
"What do we do next?"
Sitting on the roof of the carriage and patrolling around, Hu Tao glanced at the surrounding environment and asked.
"Do you want to continue on your way? Or rest on the spot?"
This wasn't a problem before, but now it is.
"Go ahead."
Fangzheng lit a magic lamp and hung it on the front of the carriage.
"These horses still hold up."
Hearing Fangzheng's words, the horses that had been pulling the cart all day were so aggrieved that they didn't dare to speak. They... well, what can they say?
I can't understand these people...
"Let them rest for a while, and let's have dinner by the way, and then set off."
Katie felt a little sorry for these well-behaved horses, and hurriedly suggested, and Fang Zheng didn't have any objections to this, as there is always a meal, and stopping to eat is no different from eating while walking. Hu Tao has no objections. If she is not injured, she only needs 1000ML of fresh plasma a week. At other times, it is actually the same for Walnut whether to eat or not.
"what?"
However, at this moment, Kuang San suddenly turned his head and glanced into the woods. At the same time, Fang Zheng also narrowed his eyes.
"What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Facing Katie's uneasy question, the two looked at each other, then Kurumi smiled slightly and jumped out of the carriage.
"I'm going to catch some prey for dinner... I hope it will taste better than those wolves before."
The next moment, Kuang San's figure flashed, and he quietly disappeared into the dark shadows.
