Chapter 174 Young Baoyu

Most of these adventurers who came with the tribal coalition came to see the fun, or to see if it was profitable. Some adventurers came to see Yang Yi. These adventurers were the original investors who invested in Backwater Village.

When these investors arrived at the backwater Murloc Village, they found that most of the village, which had been built for more than a month, was destroyed by centaurs. Some of them hurriedly tried to find a way to notify the president of their guild, while others were eager to find the ratchet fish man.

"Mayor of Ratchet Town, why didn't you defend the village?"

"Mayor Poseidon, why are the houses burned down?"

“What happens to the money we invest?”

…

The adventurers all came to Yang Yi at this time, and each one of them was worried whether the money they invested would be wasted.

"Shut up, everyone!" Yang Yi yelled angrily.

When the noisy adventurers saw Yang Yi getting angry, and then looked at the fighting murlocs around them, they all shut up and stopped.

"This village will continue to be built as planned. Everyone, please leave here and don't let me hinder the fishmen from doing their work."

Yang Yi spoke, made a promise to the adventurers, and then drove them all outside the wall.

The adventurers were driven out one by one by the fighting fishmen, and they gathered around unwillingly.

"what to do?"

"Can this fish man's words be trusted?"

"The key is that the centaurs are too strong, these fishmen can't stop them at all."

"I have to go back and report whether I want to invest any further funds."

"I think it's better not to invest. We are not like those big guilds who invested a lot of money in the beginning."

"Fortunately, we only spent some money to increase the reputation of Ratchet Village."

…

The adventurers started a discussion. After seeing the destroyed fishman village on site, they were very suspicious of the construction of the backwater village.

When the adventurers invested in the Backwater Village, they signed a contract in advance and determined their respective investment amounts, but they did not hand over all the investment money to the fishmen from the beginning.

Backwater Village was originally planned as a large village, and it would take several months to complete the entire village. The investment funds are also delivered to the fishmen in batches. In adventurer terms, this is called allocation in installments according to the progress of the project.

Backwater Village had only built the two rows of walls and garrison and construction required buildings on the Murloc Village side before, so it had actually only received a small part of the investment funds so far.

After driving all the adventurers out, Yang Yi called the old blind man over.

The losses suffered have almost been calculated, and the old blind man reported to Yang Yi: "Lord, the main losses are that the food in the warehouse has been robbed, and the buildings have been damaged and burned. Except for some of the building materials, some of the wood has been set on fire. All of them are intact. All the injuries of the fishmen have been treated, and none of the kobold slaves are missing because they are hiding in the cave of Thunder Peak."

Yang Yi was quite satisfied after hearing this, at least no personnel were lost.

"Old Blind Eye, you organize the murloc construction workers, let them repair enough murloc huts first so that the murlocs can have a place to rest, and then start building the wall tomorrow. Also, send the murlocs back to Ratchet Town to make Si Lark arranged for enough food to be delivered.”

"Yes, Lord."

The old blind man immediately ran to organize the fishman construction workers.

There is a distance between the Backwater Oasis and Ratchet Town. It will take at least two days for the fishmen to return to Ratchet Town to prepare materials and then transport them to the Backwater Oasis. After the old blind man left, Yang Yi wanted to arrange for a group of murlocs to go hunting as a temporary food supplement. Brak was currently recovering from his injuries, so he called in the murloc ambusher Swart.

"Swat, there is a lack of food here now. You take a squadron of fighting murlocs out to hunt." Yang Yi said to Swart.

"Yes." Swart replied, "Lord, there are many alien humans who have been staring at us."

The number of murloc ambushers in Ratchet Town is too small. Currently, the main task of the murloc ambush team led by Swart is to guard and investigate. He found that many adventurers came and looked furtively at the murloc village from time to time. direction.

Yang Yi originally didn't care about such things, but when he thought about adventurers sneaking into the Fishman Village late at night, he paid attention. It was possible that among them were people sent by Lu Xiaoming.

A lot of people came to the Backwater Oasis today. In addition to the Qin Kun Society and the Blood Blade Mercenary Group who came earlier, a lot of adventurers came later along with the tribal reinforcements.

After the tribal reinforcements arrived, they picked up the injured orcs and went to the crossroads. Not all the adventurers left the backwater oasis. Some of the remaining adventurers had already started to make fires and prepare food.

Adventurers in the world of Azeroth are very different from players in virtual games. Players who played games in the past basically did not need to worry about food, clothing, housing, transportation, food, drink, and toilet. Even if the player character was injured, he could just take some medicine. .

But it's different in the world of Azeroth. For people like Mu Xiaolan and others bringing hundreds of people over, logistical supplies are already a troublesome matter. There are hundreds of mouths to eat, so you have to find a way to fill them up first. You also have to arrange your rest time appropriately to regain your strength, otherwise you won’t have to do anything.

Being injured is also a big trouble. Although there are quick-recovery items such as healing potions and first-aid bandages, it is not possible to be energetic and healthy immediately after using them.

Many people in Qin Kunhui and the Blood Blade Mercenary Group were injured by the centaur's sharp arrows. Many seriously injured people are still recovering from their injuries, and they all stayed behind.

"Mu Xiaolan and the others immediately organized so many people to come to the Backwater Oasis today, even earlier than the tribe's wolf cavalry. They must have received some news in advance. Lu Xiaoming has been sending people to sneak into the Backwater Oasis before. It must be There's something wrong with these two siblings, why don't you go find out what's going on?"

Yang Yi looked at the sky. It was already afternoon, and the adventurers were preparing for dinner by making fire and cooking.

"Anyway, there are so many miscellaneous people here today, so I'll blend in. Maybe I can gain something."

Yang Yi made a decision. He found a place and turned into a human.

When Yang Yi appeared in front of everyone in the Backwater Oasis again, he was already carrying a [Hard Short Bow] and holding a [Fighter's Short Sword].

"A short bow of excellent quality and a short sword of ordinary quality can no longer be kept low-key."

Yang Yi looked at his own equipment and the "shattered metal" in the hands of other adventurers, and felt proud.

At present, most of the weapons in the hands of adventurers have moved away from the primitive stage of wood and stones picked up from the ground, and rough-level weapons have become the mainstream. Organizations like the Qin Kun Society and the Blood Blade Mercenary Group already have most of their elite members with weapons of ordinary quality. However, weapons of excellent quality are still extremely rare, and only a few leaders such as Mu Xiaolan and Blood Blade own one or two.

After Yang Yi appeared, he did not go directly to the people in Qin Kunhui. He walked around deliberately so as not to look too deliberate.

The Backwater Oasis was very lively today, and people could be seen setting up fires and barbeques everywhere. It looked like a large suburban barbecue party organized by a group.

Some adventurers took this opportunity to spread animal skins or linen on the ground and started to set up stalls to sell all kinds of strange things.

Yang Yi walked past several street stalls. He took a look and found that the adventurers really had their own magical powers. In addition to equipment and food, there are teeth of beasts, feathers of raptors, strange stones, and gear parts removed from unknown places.

Most of those equipment were of rough quality, and occasionally there were a few items of ordinary quality that couldn't catch Yang Yi's eye, so Yang Yi didn't sell any of them. However, there was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl selling a fruit called [Golden-skinned Apples], which aroused his interest. There were three golden-skinned apples placed in front of the girl. It was obvious that she did not grow this number herself.

Yang Yi saw that the apples were selling well, and he could tell with the Lord's Eye that they were level 3 food.

"I haven't eaten fruit for a long time. Let's buy a few to try."

Yang Yi was greedy, so he threw a silver coin to the girl and bought three apples.

"Thank you, thank you." The girl kept thanking her and quickly put away the silver coins.

"Ah, three apples for one silver coin!"

"I also sell food here, boss, would you like to see it?"

"Brother, are you still accepting new people in the guild? I can cook, do laundry, massage, warm beds, and can do everything."

The people setting up the stall next to the girl all showed surprised expressions. One silver coin was a lot of money. This kind of apple had no other effect except filling the stomach.

"What are you talking about? Have you never seen a wealthy person?" Yang Yi yelled disdainfully.

Yang Yi shrugged and thought to himself: The uncle doesn't have copper coins with him, the smallest ones are silver coins. The uncle just has money, there is nothing he can do.

When everyone saw that Yang Yi was not only spending money lavishly, but also speaking so "lavishly", they all consciously kept their mouths shut.

"Little sister, where did you get these apples?"

Yang Yi opened his mouth wide and took a big bite of the apple, then asked the girl while chewing and foaming at the mouth. He has recently become accustomed to staying with fishmen, and his behavior has become increasingly erratic.

The girl had some freckles on her face. She took a step back to avoid Yang Yi's saliva, then frowned and looked at Yang Yi. He looked like he was only a teenager, but he actually called her little sister.

But considering that Yang Yi was a rich man, the girl reluctantly replied: "There are many apples like this near Razor Swamp in the south. Everyone who has been there knows it."

"Razorfen is the territory of the quilboar. Do the quilboar still grow apples? I haven't heard the quilboar Tooth say this. I'll ask him next time I see him."

Yang Yi left the girl's stall while biting the apple.

This [Golden Apple] tastes really good. Yang Yi finished eating one and started to eat the second one. A few steps ahead, a thin young man stumbled towards Yang Yi.

The young man didn't seem to be looking at the road and suddenly bumped into a big man. A piece of parchment in his hand fell to the ground.

"Boy, didn't you wear your eyes when you went out?" the big man yelled angrily.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't see it." The skinny boy apologized quickly.

After the parchment fell on the ground, the young man hurriedly stretched out his hands to pick it up, but he couldn't find it after groping for a long time.

"There's no point in saying sorry."

The big man pushed the young man to the ground with both hands.

Yang Yi was chewing an apple and watching.

The wind on the grassland was strong, and after the parchment landed, it was blown in the direction of Yang Yi. In fact, it only flew three or four steps. But the skinny boy stretched out his hand to feel around. Could it be that the big man was right? This skinny boy really went out without his eyes.

"What's painted on it?"

Yang Yi curiously glanced at the parchment in front of his feet. The wrinkled parchment seemed to have a rough map drawn on it.

"Hey, where have I seen this map? Isn't this the map of the Barrens?"

Yang Yi remembered that the orcs wanted the thorny fishmen to cooperate in attacking the Dead Water Oasis. He had seen a similar map in the tent when he was taken to see General Regotha ​​Death Gate by the orcs for the first time. At that time, Yang Yi was still thinking about getting such a map, but unfortunately he never had the chance.

When Yang Yi saw that the parchment was a map of the Barrens, he quickly picked it up and walked towards the two.

"Brother, don't be angry. My friend likes to walk without looking at the road."

Yang Yi stepped forward and pulled the big man's hand. He stuffed an apple into his hand and a silver coin.

The big man was about to get angry when he saw it was an apple, but when he saw a white silver coin, he immediately grasped his hand.

"Tell your friend to be careful next time." The big man left a polite remark and left.

Money makes things easier. Yang Yi walked over and helped the boy up.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you very much."

The boy stood up, not caring about brushing off the dust on his body, while he said thank you and hurriedly reached out to grab the parchment in Yang Yi's hand.

Yang Yi grabbed one end of the parchment, and the boy also grabbed the other end of the parchment. Yang Yi didn't want to let go, and the boy pulled hard, but didn't pull the parchment off.

"Ahem." Yang Yi coughed awkwardly, "Brother, did you draw this drawing yourself? Do you want to sell it?"

"No matter how much money you pay!" The boy was very determined.

Yang Yi smiled, what do you mean by "no matter how much money you pay", isn't it just that you think the money is too little, watch me knock you out with money.

Yang Yi directly took out a gold coin.

"Never sell it!"

The boy suddenly rushed over and grabbed the parchment held by Yang Yi with both hands. He pulled with all his strength, and tore the parchment to get it back in his hand.

Yang Yi looked at the only corner of the parchment left in his hand and felt puzzled by the boy's behavior. "So powerful, but it's not a treasure. Could it be a treasure map?"

"Thank you, thank you, I'm leaving."

The boy snatched the parchment back, thanked him again and again, and then ran away in a hurry.

Forget it, I don't care.

Yang Yi watched the boy stumble and run away, stepping on other people's stalls on the way.

"His name is 'Baoyu', he has no level and no decent weapons. This kid is miserable." Yang Yi looked at him with the Lord's Eye and found that he only had the name information.

Yang Yi just regarded the boy named Baoyu's running away as an episode. He thought he had enough of wandering around, so he pretended to walk towards Qin Kunhui. .
