The Amber Sword

Scene 100 Strange

After Na Xin's explanation, and after understanding that the scavengers had killed those weirdos with the help of Brando and Mr. Liu, Rosalin's knights couldn't help but look at the two people here with some curiosity. Eyes - after all, swordsmen in the realm of heaven and humans are always rare no matter where they are.

But that's all. They are Lord Rosalin's subordinates, and they won't make a fuss over one or two masters of the realm of heaven and man.

It took some time to negotiate the price, and the knight leader named Kesav finally led his men to cross the river from the lower reaches, and arrived at the Qiusanze River side in less than a quarter of an hour, and met Bran. Many people gathered together.

When Brando got closer, he saw that the pterosaurs these people were sitting on looked like the two-legged ground dragons of the Cruz people. Perhaps they were a variant of the same genus. This pterosaur was covered with a layer of down-like feathers. It is more suitable to survive and reproduce in the low temperature environment of high latitudes.

Those Rosalin knights passed by him with some arrogance, and the arrogant look on their faces was just like the knights he saw in all areas, but Brando didn't take it seriously. He was not as familiar with these guys. .

The knights brought a cloud of smoke to the vicinity of the convoy, then tightened their reins and slowed down their pace. When they saw the piles of black crystals in the camp, their eyes couldn't help but shine and they whistled.

Na Xin hurriedly followed, fearing that these guys would take advantage of the money and plan to break the contract. His face was as dark as iron, but he heard the leading knight Kesav sitting on his mount and asking:

"The battle is very fierce. Do you need such a grand display to deal with seven or eight strange monsters?"

He sniffed, frowned and looked at the marks on the battlefield around him.

Na Xin couldn't help but cursed secretly. The lazy guys under him were indeed lazy. He quickly replied: "Those are seven or eight weirdos. If it weren't for the friends I met on the road, you might not even be able to see them." I’m off.”

"It's not a good thing to see you." Kesav sneered.

Na Xin had to apologize, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to be piled together. Like a chrysanthemum that is about to bloom. Fortunately, Kesav didn't intend to go into details. He looked around. He didn't rush in, grab a handful of black crystals, and stuff them into his pockets like the other boys under his command, all while laughing and joking.

After all, he is different from his subordinates. He has to maintain some gentle aristocratic etiquette to make himself look less ugly. Besides, he is indispensable for those black crystals anyway. The division has been negotiated long ago. This time he is very cruel. He blackmailed the other party.

He held the reins, his other gloved hand on the hilt of his sword. He looked at the scavengers in the distance with some vigilance. Although he didn't think that these desperadoes dared to come up to trouble them, this was after all a matter of destroying people's money. He knew very well what greed would turn people into.

Fortunately, these rubbish were quite sensible today. They only looked here from a distance and had no intention of surrounding them. He was a little strange and couldn't help but subconsciously glance in the direction of Brando and the two Jiufeng people. .

At this sight, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Kesav had a look of doubt on his face, and for a moment he stopped caring about his men. While holding the reins, he turned the direction of the sitting dragon and came to the side of Mr. Liu and Huang Huo with his chin held high.

"who are they?"

Kesav looked at the two of them and said,

He turned around and asked Na Xin.

Mr. Liu looked at this guy. He narrowed his eyes slightly, but didn't express his position.

Huang Huo stood behind Mr. Liu, raising her head and looking at this guy as well. She was holding the sword in one hand, and there was no trace of fear in her dark eyes.

Of course, a swordsman in the realm of heaven and man has no reason to be afraid of a mere low-level knight.

Na Xin felt a slight suddenness in his heart. He knew last night that these two Jiufeng people had a lot of background, and he also gave others a silence order. Fortunately, everyone understands what the Jiufeng Royal Family means, and understands what can be said without him having to say it. Nothing can be said.

But he was slightly nervous at this time, wondering if this guy had discovered something. He replied without leaving any trace: "That is my guest, the guest who also set out with us on the road to Rosalin in Tomro."

"Are you from Jiufeng?" Kesav turned around and asked Mr. Liu and Huang Huo, "What are your names?"

Huang Huo glanced at him, as if he were looking at an idiot. She didn't think the other person was qualified to order her to tell her name. How noble the Yufeng family was, how could anyone be qualified to ask her to speak?

She simply didn't bother to talk nonsense with this guy, turned around and left, jumped on her carriage, closed the curtain with her backhand, and never appeared again.

"You can go," Mr. Liu replied politely, "There's nothing going on here."

Kesav couldn't help but suffocated slightly. Hearing what the other party meant, it was as if he was eager to ask them if they needed anything. His expression changed several times, but he felt vaguely confident in his heart.

His feelings were rarely wrong. The pampering and condescending attitude of these two people when talking was definitely not something ordinary people could possess. It would be difficult to fake it without long-term training. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but realize a possibility and looked at the other person again. , then turned and left without saying a word.

Naxin looked here, as if he felt something. He wanted to go up and explain something, but was stopped by Brando.

"What does he mean?" Brando asked Naxin while looking at the direction Kesav left.

"He may have recognized that Mr. Liu and the others have extraordinary status. Your Excellency, Mr. Liu and the others are too obviously Nine Phoenix nobles to hide it from anyone who cares." Na Xin sighed: "Hey, Kesav is too smart. , I wish it was Benham who was patrolling today."

"So what if you recognize him?"

"It's not that good. Those who are unlucky will be in trouble. Things in Swift Plains are very complicated. I can't explain it clearly for a while, sir. But if Mr. Liu and the others get into trouble, we may also suffer."

"Suffering?"

Brando shook his head. Although he had calmed down a lot, he was not timid yet. He didn't think that a mere Lord Rosalin could cause him disaster.

But he obviously saw much further than the smuggler leader named Naxin. In his opinion, the guy named Kesav obviously noticed something and deliberately staged this act.

Because there was an obvious change in the latter's eyes when he saw Huang Huo for the first time. Although he hid it well later, it was a pity that it still could not escape his eyes.

There is obviously a problem here, but Brando has no intention of taking the initiative to say it. First of all, this is Mr. Liu and Huang Huo's own business, and there is no need for him to meddle.

Besides, if they were really in trouble, it wouldn't be too late for him to take action at that time.

Those knights seemed to ignore the existence of his 'foreigner', but that was just right, Brando didn't intend to pay attention to them. After they quickly finished dividing the spoils, they temporarily lent part of the Wingless Dragon to Na Xin. With the help of these knights, the team finally hit the road again.

At this time, the sun has crossed the center line of the sky——

After autumn, the sunshine that still seemed a bit vicious shone on both sides of Qiusangze. After the sunshine dispelled the fog, the visibility in the nearby area became extremely high. Brando rode a horse borrowed from Mr. Liu while slowly walking. Xue walked parallel to the caravan while paying attention to the surrounding environment.

Compared with the eyesight of ordinary people, he could easily see the ruins and remains of the charred villages more than ten miles away in the wilderness. In some places, there was still smoke lingering. The crystal clusters cannot cause such damage. This is obviously the work of humans themselves. It seems that the Rosalin people should be planning to abandon this land.

The 'abnormal' defeated Madara in the south of the Field of Bones, and now they appear again in the east of the Qiusangze River. The Rosalin people obviously do not think that they can fight better than the undead. It seems that the Lord has been there for a long time. Planning to retreat to the other side of the strait.

It was just this sudden attack that strengthened the latter's determination.

This is not a random guess on his part, but a reasonable guess based on what Na Xin and others said. But now it seems that this guess is not far off.

When Huang Huo returned to his carriage, he never showed up again.

She hugged her sword and closed her eyes slightly, as if nothing around her could affect her mind anymore.

The jolting of the carriage did not affect Huang Huo's tranquility. The ascetic practice of the Yufeng lineage was unimaginable to ordinary people. During the 'quiet practice', it was often necessary to practice under a waterfall that fell from a critical distance. Compared to this, the current environment was not as good as before. Worth mentioning.

But after a quarter of an hour, she suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes as black as paint, as if there were fleeting stars hidden in them.

"Mr. Liu, what do you want to remind me?"

"You performed very well just now, Miss Second." After a while, Mr. Liu's deep voice came from outside the carriage: "The knight looked different just now. He probably recognized us."

"How could he recognize us? Has the ghost car already arrived at Rosalin?"

"Now that I think about it, this is the only possibility left."

"So, we leaked the news?"

"I haven't thought about this yet. It's also possible that we were discovered when we left Yugang. They may have guessed our next route, so they made preparations in advance-"

"Since when did Gui Che become so sharp?"

"This is the Swift Plains after all, and if it is that person, it may not be impossible to do it."

"Is he the genius who is said to be born once every thousand years in the Ghost Car Clan?"

"Exactly."

"Then what should we do next? Should we still go to Rosalin?"

"We have to go. This is the only place to stay on this side of Wagtail Strait. I don't know how they knew we would come here instead of going to Lubik."
