The scorching sun at noon scorches the lush trees, radiating a layer of summer atmosphere.
And the town of Baru, as an important supply point from Coldstone Town, the iron center, to Maz City, the starting point of the mainland, obviously has countless caravans stationed here.
With the scorching sun, once again swept the business road outside the town.
At the end of the business road, a new team appeared.
Upon seeing this, the owner of the tea shop in Zhenkou quickly went to the cellar to get some ice cubes, and then prepared a jar of fruit tea with a cool air in the most eye-catching place.
Sure enough, this action of the tea shop owner undoubtedly attracted the entire caravan that was planning to enter the town to rest.
A small caravan of more than a dozen people sat under the pergola without hesitation.
And the tea shop owner himself hurriedly greeted everyone, and distributed a can of fruit tea with enough ice to everyone one by one.
However, while the tea shop owner was distributing fruit tea, he always intentionally or unconsciously swept his eyes lightly across everyone's faces.
And whenever he sees a young man, he will pay attention to it.
It was almost unabashedly observing whether these young men themselves were the original members of the caravan.
But while the tea shop owner was observing everyone in secret, there was also a woman named Su Mu in the caravan, who seemed to be observing the behavior of the tea shop owner in the same way.
I saw that this was a tall and thin girl with an exceptionally beautiful appearance.
The girl's age is about sixteen or seventeen, which is the age when tea is fragrant in a pot.
Moreover, the girl herself seemed to insist on some kind of unknown self-restraint. Even on such a hot day, she still covered her face with fine sand, making it difficult to see her true face.
But even so, through the faint light-colored veil, the girl's appearance is still unforgettable.
It was even because the girl's appearance was too good, which instead caused the men, including the tea shop owner, to subconsciously not dare to stare at her for too long.
It seems to be afraid that such behavior will cause disgust from this beautiful girl.
And it was when the tea shop owner was avoiding the girl's gaze with a guilty conscience, and at the same time hurriedly swept his gaze away from her.
Something that quietly fell into the eyes of the tea shop owner also fully explained the woman's true identity.
I saw the lyre placed beside the girl, which was a common lyre in the northern part of the mainland.
The lyre is obviously an instrument used by bardics.
Although the lyre itself, its production is really rough enough. But the woman's own clothes were not luxurious, but it also proved that she was a downright bard.
Therefore, after confirming the identity of the girl, the tea shop owner no longer pays attention to the girl's movements. Instead, he once again looked at a few young men and continued to confirm the explanations of the group of "employers".
…
However, what the tea shop owner couldn't think of was that he didn't have any special bard Su Mu in his eyes, but it was exactly what he really wanted to search for.
Because in the original world, Su Mu had already played a female role as a Coser because of betting with friends.
So when Su Mu was wearing the coat obtained from the female assailant and covered the details of his face with a flimsy scarf, no one else had any doubt about his gender.
As for the lyre, it was simply imitated by Su Mu. It was just a prop to hide the dark thin blade, and it could not play any music at all.
Even at this time, Su Mu's slightly neutral voice was also the result of his oppressive vocal cords with Jing Qi.
Su Mu's greatest advantage now is that he has known beforehand the true standard of attention of the group of attackers. Therefore, through the practice of cross-dressing girls, so as to cleverly avoid the other party's search.
And at this moment, Su Mu's method is obviously successful.
The tea shop owner who was the eyeliner of the attackers did not connect the girl in front of him with the young man they were searching for.
Even the same originated from the peeping of the tea shop owner.
On the contrary, Su Mu was 100% sure that the group of people must also be in this town.
…
However, Su Mu, who had spied everything secretly, was not in a hurry to leave at this time.
After a short drinking break, Su Mu still followed the team of people he had joined halfway, and walked towards the trade area in the center of the town without delay.
Because of Su Mu's trade team at this time, after all, they are based on the circulation of materials as the core of their survival.
So even if they came to this small-scale transit town, they still tried to sell some of the goods, and then buy some special products here.
At this time, Su Mu happened to be in the crowd, and came to the trading place silently.
In fact, the trade scale of Baru Town is not even one-tenth that of Hanshi Town, and even the trade market is only a small half-block surrounded by several shops.
And under the scorching sun at this moment, there are even very few customers in the neighborhood.
But even so, among the few shops in the town, the one that has been repaired the most exquisite still has a large enough source.
And this shop itself is exactly why Su Mu came here.
…
I saw a shop with huge signs in the middle of the town’s Qingshi street.
And just like the cross of swords and axes of the Wanderer's Union, or the interlacing of the teeth of the Stalker's Union, the seal engraved on this brand is also a symbol that the whole continent understands.
A trade covenant, an organization that started only as a business and never tainted any force.
But it is such an organization, but it is also protected by the world's three major countries and seven major groups.
As for the eight major groups at the top of the world, the only one that did not affirm the asylum trade covenant, in fact... has never had an armed trade covenant itself.
At this time, Su Mu had to make a special trip to the branch shop of the trade alliance.
In fact, it is also for the purpose of being able to continue his journey to Maz City in the image of a girl today.
Because now Su Mu has temporarily abandoned his identity as a mercenary, and is only on the road as a weak woman.
Therefore, at this time, Su Mu was not only unable to go on the road alone, but also more inconvenient to get a free itinerary.
So the only option left to Su Mu was to spend money on the caravan.
But at this time, Su Mu himself, except for the 30% commission that was prepaid in advance during the last escort mission, there was nothing left of this world's property to use.
Even Su Mu, who took over the task at the time, did not have the qualifications to be a mercenary.
Therefore, Su Mu's employment price at that time was actually only the lowest one.
And such a loss of money, obviously can't support the weak girl Su Mou, successfully went to the distant city of Maz.
Therefore, Su Mu had to come to the shops of the trade alliance.
Trying to sell some valuable items; in exchange for his own funds to continue the journey!
