Scene 104 Naxin’s Thoughts

For Jiufeng, the Qingyu Hills and Swift Plains are just its fringe areas. But for the Sapphire Hills and Swift Plains, Rosalin on the other side of the Wagtail Strait can only be regarded as its fringe area.

The establishment of Rosalin can be traced back to the era of the Long Staple War in the Swift Plains. A group of war refugees escaped by boat through the Wagtail Strait, landed on the barren land east of the Sea of ​​the Dead Moon, and established a settlement here. reproduce. After the war, some of the first batch of ancestors returned to their hometown and brought information about the other side of the strait back to the Swift Plains. Later, there was a simple trade relationship between the two sides of the narrow strait. However, due to the poverty of real estate, this relationship has always been this way. embellishment on a golden waterway.

Rosalin's second development came from the failure of the Rosalin family in the Swift Plains. The failure of the war forced Rosalin's previous lords to lead their defeated soldiers across the Wagtail Strait in order to survive. Rosalin The indigenous people were unable to resist or did not resist these down-and-out knights from across the strait. They stayed here for centuries. The Rosalin family built a permanent castle and managed to maintain themselves here with meager production. dominance over the land.

The castle of the Rosalin family was built abruptly on a promontory, overlooking the somewhat chaotic town on the seaside below. In order to fight against the intrusion of the undead in the past few centuries, the city was surrounded by city walls and towering watchtowers. It barely looks like a military fortress.

The convoy came along the road to the city gate, and a man's head poked out from the city wall. When the man saw the knights below, he quickly gestured to the guard towers on both sides. The soldiers in the guard towers pushed the winches, and the city gate was fastened. rising.

After entering the city, the tense nerves of Rosalin's knights immediately relaxed. They had already packed their pockets. At this moment, they all stood up and dismounted, saying hello and joking to their familiar colleagues at the posts on both sides of the city gate fortress.

Kesav turned the horse's head from the front. Passed through his men and came to Brando and Mr. Liu who were walking side by side. He glanced at the two of them and then said to Na Xin who was not far away: "Rosalin is currently under martial law. You know the rules and don't cause trouble. The merchant fleet from Swift Plains has just left. There should be room for Storm Shadow." .”

Na Xin quickly agreed. Unlike Mr. Brando and Mr. Liu, he did not dare to offend the lord of Rosalin. The majesty of the lord represented behind these knights was not something that a smuggler like him could challenge.

After the knights dispersed, the caravan leader - or the smuggler leader's face darkened, he spat, turned around and ordered his men bitterly to look for those guys who had escaped the night before, to see if they had any There was no escape back to Rosalind.

The scavengers have their own rules, which cannot be violated easily.

Brando saw the mixed-race Rosalin giving orders and sending everyone away before he came to him and said to him somewhat flatteringly: "Sir, I think that guy Kesav is not well-intentioned."

"Oh?" He pretended not to know.

Mr. Liu also looked at Na Xin. Since he and Brenda had reached an agreement, he stopped interrupting at this moment. He just quietly grabbed his reins and sat on the saddle, watching the two people negotiate.

"Sir, Kesav may have recognized the identities of Mr. Liu and Miss Huanghuo. I think he is uneasy." Na Xin whispered to Brando.

"Oh, why do you say that?"

"There was something wrong with him on the banks of the Qiusangze River.

In the past, when the guy saw so many black crystals, he would probably have made the lion open his mouth, but since he asked about the identities of Mr. Liu and Miss Huanghuo, he was obviously a little absent-minded. Several of his men secretly came to him to discuss how they wanted to take advantage of us, but they were scolded away by him. Several of my men happened to hear their argument. I don't think that guy Kesav is so moral. "

"And," he licked his chapped mouth. He continued: "He actually had the intention to remind us just now that our life and death would not have anything to do with these knights. I would say he wished we would be unlucky early. I think the focus of his words should be what follows. In one sentence, he reminded us that Storm Shadow still has an empty room, I think these words should be said to you and Mr. Liu."

"Where is Storm Shadow again?"

"That's a hotel in Rosalind City."

"You mean he wants us to live there?" Brando looked at the smuggler with some interest. He didn't care why the other party showed his kindness to him, but he did need such a manpower at the moment.

As for whether the other party is reliable, that doesn't matter.

Naxin nodded quickly.

He has dark skin and deep wrinkles on his forehead. He does not look like a businessman, but more like a sailor who has been living by the sea on the Wagtail Strait all year round. Different from the mentality of ordinary desperadoes and gamblers, his behavior is somewhat like those who make a living at sea, with a sense of adventure in his composure.

He has been living on the underworld for decades. Although he has saved a lot of money, his deepest wish is to return to Jiufeng.

When Huang Huo and Mr. Liu appeared, he vaguely realized that this opportunity might have arisen. It's a pity that he didn't find this opportunity along the way. However, after Brando woke up, Rosalin's knights finally brought this entry point to him.

So when Brando asked him to give half of the caravan's profits to the Rosalin knights, although he was a little reluctant, he was actually more excited.

He knew that such a superior person would definitely disdain to take advantage of a small character like him. As long as he behaved more respectfully, he would definitely earn that opportunity for himself.

Now this opportunity has almost been placed in front of him.

Brando shook his head. A thumb-long crystal appeared in his hand and he threw it forward: "Naxin, I need you to do something."

Naxin quickly caught the crystal. "Fire Pattern Red Crystal!" He gasped and almost lost his grip and dropped this priceless thing to the ground. He hurriedly clenched his palm and carefully covered the thing in his palm. This was the top magic crystal. There was no magic crystal of this level in Rosalin. Just this one was enough to make him half a black man. Crystal.

However, this magic crystal was a bit hot. As a scavenger, he obviously understood that there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. He couldn't help but raise his head and look at the young man in front of him, trying to see what task he was going to assign to him. .

But unexpectedly Brando said: "Don't get me wrong, the crystal is just a compensation for you. What I want you to do is not difficult. Go and ask a few people for me, including the ones I mentioned to you last night. That little goblin, and two of my pets, a talking white cat or white fox. They are all very strange and should not be that common around here. If they appear in Rosalin, there should be news. "

Brando knew that Bai Wu could change into many forms, but her favorite ones were the white cat and white fox forms, so she simply described both forms to prevent the other party from missing the news.

Na Xin was a little dazed when he heard this, and wondered whether this young man was not worried about the threat of Lord Rosalin at all? He doesn't understand Brando's true strength like Mr. Liu, or he actually lacks understanding of the level of strength above the realm of heaven and man, and Lord Rosalin's guard captain has great power among these desperadoes. , so even though he had personally seen Brando kill hundreds of monsters with one sword, he still didn't think that this young man was the opponent of the big shot.

After all, the age gap is here. Even if this young man starts training in swordsmanship from birth, Lord Rosalin's guard captain will not live up to his age like a dog.

He wanted to give a few reminders, but unfortunately Brando did not give him this opportunity. He waved his hand and motioned for the other party to quickly do what he ordered. What he was interested in was the power and connections of this smuggler. Since the other party could search for the men who escaped last night in Rosalin, they would definitely be able to get news about Root and Bai Wu - if the latter did appear here. If so.

This task does not require much loyalty, and he does not care whether the person performing it is reliable or not. He threw out a flame red crystal so generously to compensate the other party's losses. In fact, it only meant part of the meaning. The more meaning was to recognize the other party's previous actions. Take a stand and tell him that you have the ability to provide him with what he wants.

However, Brando obviously underestimated the ambition of the smuggler. Seeing that he didn't care, Na Xin couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He did not hesitate to give up half a car of black crystals. The purpose was naturally not to make money. Of course, he didn't care what trouble Brando and Mr. Liu would encounter, but he was just worried that if the other party couldn't deal with the threat of Lord Rosalin, then his chance to go to Jiufeng would be ruined.

However, he also understood that his words would have no effect here, so he could only nod and step aside. But at this time, Mr. Liu suddenly said: "Did you call me Na Xin? Do you want to go back to Jiufeng?"

When Na Xin heard this, he couldn't help but tremble. Not only did he want to go back to Jiufeng, in fact, there was not a single refugee from Jiufeng in the Swift Plains and Qingyu Hills who didn't want to return to Jiufeng.

It was a rich and prosperous country. People living outside Jiufeng could not imagine that world at all.

It's just that they can't return to Jiufeng. In fact, except for Jiufeng's businessmen or nobles like Mr. Liu and Huang Huo, most of the others had to flee Jiufeng because they got into trouble. Unless they were recommended by someone with status, most people like him I will never be able to return to Jiufeng in this life.
