Pivot of the Sky

Chapter 62: Do you want to go too?

Views:

Amon sighed slightly, there are some things that cannot be persuaded, and he can only let Mei Danzuo solve the knot by himself. Although wielding a sword to kill people is easy, it is not so easy to cut off troubles.

The next day they arrived at a town, Amon asked Medanzo to stop the carriageway: "This town is very big, we will stop here for a while to buy some things we need on the way. There are many taverns and shops in the town, you Go relax, I only have one advice, don't fight with anyone!"

Amon stayed in the inn, and at night, he specially let Mei Danzuo go out for a walk alone, so that he didn't have to come back at night. Mei Danzuo first went to the tavern in the town, drank a lot of alcohol, but became more and more sober and never drunk, and then went to the biggest brothel in the town. He called all the most beautiful prostitutes in the brothel to his room, hugged him and drank with him, then closed the door for the night, and did not come out until noon the next day.

Mei Danzuo was rich, and he made a lot of money by reselling the horse leather billets this time. He was usually very frugal, but today he was very generous. Back at the inn, Amon smiled and asked him, "How is it, do you feel better?"

Mei Danzuo replied with some embarrassment: "When I looked up at noon today and saw the sun, I suddenly felt that I didn't need to be like this... I am your servant, but I need your silent care. I am really ashamed, please forgive me. "

Amon nodded: "Well, it's good to calm down. You really didn't feel well during this time. I'm also very happy to see that you finally figured it out and stopped being depressed."

The somewhat funny Medanzuo came back again. He winked at Amon and said, "My God, you are young, strong, and so handsome and rich! If you go to that brothel, the girls will definitely like it, If you want to see and see, I will take you there today?"

To be honest, Amon has never been to a brothel, and he never thought of what he would do in such a place. Although he was young when he was in the caveman tribe, his body was already very mature. Link said more than once that he would send the most beautiful girl in the tribe to serve him in daily life. It may be the difference in aesthetic point of view, Amon has never been interested.

It's not that Amon has no desires, and he never intentionally wronged himself. When he met Yin Nanna, he really felt the sprouting of desire in his body, but he didn't want to do anything to Yin Nanna. There was already a woman in his mind, she was untouchable, but she had a name exclusively for him, there was no other temptation in this world.

Mei Danzuo wanted to take him to a brothel to see and see, but Amon didn't even have any interest in it. He even felt that doing so was wronging his desire, so he asked with a wry smile, "Do you want to go again today?"

Mei Danzuo also shook his head with a wry smile: "I don't want to go anymore, there's no need."

Amon waved his hand: "Then let's go, continue westward and cross the Youdi River, and then we will go to the mountain road, and there will no longer be such a big town."

Mei Danzuo said with some reluctance: "Why are you in such a hurry? After crossing the Youdi River, you are leaving!... I also heard a strange thing in the town today. Princess Xiaoqian was trapped by a mountain giant The situation in the tribe is very dangerous. If this news gets out, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire kingdom."

Amon stood up suddenly: "Princess Xiaoqian! What's going on? Please speak clearly."

Mei Danzuo asked in surprise: "God Amon, why are you so concerned? Could it be..."

Amon: "I know Princess Xiaoqian, she is my friend, what kind of danger did she encounter?"

Mei Danzuo said with a gaping mouth: "You, your friend? Oh, I understand! Princess Xiaoqian must have known you when she was playing in the kingdom in disguise. No wonder you are not interested in the girls in the town at all. Those mediocre Vulgar fans can't catch your eyes. But I want to remind you, haven't you heard the rumors in the kingdom?"

Amon glared at him: "You just woke up and talked so much nonsense! I did meet Princess Xiaoqian by chance on the road. We are friends. She helped me. How could I not care when I heard that she was in danger? What happened, don't tell me quickly!"

This town is called Akkad Town. When Medan Zuo came out of the brothel at noon today, he saw a group of people gathering in front of the temple. It turned out that the mayor, Diqi Zhou, was recruiting warriors to rescue Princess Xiaoqian in the mountains. A while ago, a group of businessmen came here and lived in the town for a few days to play around. Among them, there was a young girl who was so beautiful that she left a very deep impression on everyone.

A few days ago, the caravan left the town for the northern Syria Plateau. It is said that they want to use the goods from the plain to exchange things with the giant tribe on the plateau. The mayor of Diqi said that they should not go easily, they may encounter danger unless they hire enough bodyguards to protect them. He also persuaded the young girl not to take any risks, and if the caravan was going, she would stay in the town and wait. The girl thanked him with a smile, that bright and charming smile almost took Di Qi's soul away, but the girl went anyway.

But something happened yesterday, a man in the caravan suddenly returned to the town, with a weapon in his hand covered in blood, and found Di Qi Zhou Baoxin. It turned out that he was the guard beside Princess Xiaoqian, and that beautiful girl was Princess Xiaoqian. They were attacked by the Le Giant tribe in the mountains, and they were besieged in a valley in a very dangerous situation. The guard crossed the mountain desperately and killed the mountain giant who was intercepted on the way, and then fled to the town to report.

The injured guard told Diqi-Princess Zhou Xiaoxi where the valley was trapped, and asked him to take people to rescue. Mayor Diqi had a buzzing sound in his head at that time, and felt that the sky was about to fall. If something happened to Princess Xiaoqian in the area of Akkad Town, his wealth and life would be in danger!

Under normal circumstances, no matter what happens to Princess Xiaoqian, as long as she reveals her identity, no one will dare to offend her. Not only is she the king's only sister, but she also has a fiancé like Gilgamesh. Who would dare to provoke her? But the savage giant tribe on the plateau didn't pay attention to this. They heard that the girl in the caravan was the princess of the kingdom and attacked even more vigorously, trying to kidnap her and extort a large sum of money. Their minds are so simple.

Although Princess Xiaoqian is playful, she is not ignorant. The caravan is actually a disguised guard, which can protect her under normal circumstances. But this time, on the plateau, I encountered a giant tribe who was familiar with the terrain, and the situation was very strange. Several powerful giant tribes who had always gone their own way and fought with each other unexpectedly joined forces to act together. Princess Xiaoqian's guards couldn't resist. He had no choice but to protect her and fight while retreating. He was forced into a desperate valley, and the situation was already in jeopardy.

The warrior had just arrived, and before Di Qi Zhou could organize his troops to rescue him, a messenger from the United Giant Tribe sent him. This man was tall and dressed in rough animal skin clothes. Mei, send a message and leave. Diqi Zhou's heart was so frightened that it almost stopped beating. For the safety of Princess Xiaoqian, he did not leave this plateau mountain giant behind.

The news sent by the messenger was terrible—there was a princess of the kingdom in their hands, and the town of Akkad was asked to redeem it with a large sum of property within three days. They must be satisfied, otherwise the princess would be killed. Anyway, these tribes are planning to move to distant places, and they are not afraid of being hunted down by the army of the Baron Kingdom, and there is nowhere to look for them in the vast mountains.

Mayor Diqi was not sure whether the news was true or not. Could it be that Princess Xiaoqian had become a captive of the giant tribe while the injured warrior was returning to Akkad Town, or was the other party just threatening and extorting? In any case, he didn't dare to take any risks, so he had to prepare supplies according to the conditions mentioned by the messenger, and send them to the designated place as soon as possible to redeem people.

Mayor Diqi was a little confused about what the giant tribe wanted. It is said that kidnapping and extorting a large sum of money is enough, but what are these barbarians thinking in their heads? They need to bake wheat flour to make long-term bread, processed dried and dried meat, salt packaged in large wooden barrels, and many dromedary camels that can only carry goods for long distances, cloth that can be used to make clothes, Farm tools for farming, seeds to sow in the coming year, and tents for camping are finally a lot of money, but they didn’t mention how much they want.

The mayor of Diqi ordered the residents of the town to prepare overnight. When Medan Zuo was drinking and having fun with the prostitute, every household in the town was baking bread and making jerky. Farm tools, salt, seeds, dromedary camels, and cloth were collected in large quantities in the name of the government, but there were not many tents for camping. This is not a military camp. Who would store such things

Di Qi-Zhou is really a very capable local governor. If someone else encountered this situation, he would definitely be in a hurry for several days, but he sent someone to notify the residents of the division of labor and cooperation. It only took one night and half a day to get everything ready. , no panic at all. Many supplies were collected in shops, and the receipts were guaranteed by the temple in the town. As for the camels and agricultural tools taken from the farmers' homes, they are all carefully registered, and they can go to the town clerk with the voucher to collect money.

But Di Qi-Zhou didn't dare to pin all his hopes on the ransom. He made two-handed preparations and immediately recruited brave warriors with a lot of money. The name is to escort this batch of supplies to negotiate with the giant tribe, and at the same time, it is also to prevent the other party from turning their backs, so that they can take the opportunity to rescue Princess Xiaoqian by force. Transporting a large amount of supplies to the giant tribe in the deep mountains is a dangerous job in itself, and Mayor Diqi plans to lead the team himself.

The time given by the other party's messenger was only three days, and it would take one day to walk from Akkad Town to the designated place, and it would be too late to ask for help from the city-state and the king's capital anyway, and the distant water could not save the nearby fire. Akkad Town is the largest market town in the vicinity, with more than 5,000 permanent residents, and everything can only be done by Mayor Diqi.

On the one hand, Tiki sent an envoy to send an urgent report to the Kish city-state, on the other hand, he gathered all the warriors and the only two magicians in the town, and posted a list to recruit warriors to go together. Di Qi-Zhou himself is a fifth-level warrior, and there are more than 20 warriors in the town, and their strength is still too weak. I hope there are others who can stand up under the heavy reward.

Mei Danzuo happened to see this scene, and heard the discussion from the crowd that Princess Xiaoqian might have been caught by a mountain giant. Some people were shaking their heads and sighing—this playful princess finally had an accident! What a pity for such a beautiful girl. No matter how angry Gilgamesh is, it may not help. The simple-minded mountain giant would not think so much about the consequences.

Mei Danzuo didn't stay long, and went back to the inn after asking about the situation, but Amon was taken aback. He raised his cane and said, "Have you asked clearly when Mayor Diqi plans to leave?"

Mei Danzuo: "Today, we recruit warriors to join the team of escorting supplies. We will set off in the evening. We don't miss a moment on the journey through the night. The schedule is very tight."

Amon: "My friend is in danger, I'm going to rescue her! Medanzo, will you follow me?"

Mei Danzuo patted his chest and showed joy: "Actually, I want to go too! Don't forget that I am a brave warrior, and I am trying to wash away my shame with heroic deeds and regain my strength! It's just that I am following you on a tour of the mainland, Everything is at your command."

Amon nodded and said, "Do you want to go too? This is better, then let's go."

Mei Danzuo rolled his eyes and said, "God Amon, if you want to join the team, naturally you can't be a magician. I have a suggestion, it will be more convenient to do so, but I will wrong you temporarily."

Amon: "You really came back to life. You had a lot of ideas in the first place. If you have any suggestions, just say them."

Mei Danzuo rubbed the back of his head, and said with some embarrassment: "I am a mid-level warrior. If I join the escort team, I will definitely be valued. We have two horses, and I will go as a traveling knight." Go, temporarily wrong God Amon, you pretend to be my follower. You never leave this branch and that leather bag, so that you can follow me without any flaws."

Amon glanced at Mei Danzuo: "You want to rescue Princess Xiaoqian as a traveling knight, just like the hero in the legend? Very good, it really fits your temper, I will let you dress up more Let's be more majestic, put these on!" He reached into his leather pocket, unexpectedly pulled out a golden spear and handed it to Mei Danzuo.

The leather pocket was only three feet square, but this spear was nine feet long, Medanzuo was dumbfounded! Just as he was stunned, Amon took out a three-foot-wide and five-foot-long blue shield out of thin air, put it on the table and waved his hand again, and took out a silver long sword. This long sword is much more beautiful than Mei Danzuo's saber. The material of the horse leather steel is plated with heavy silver with magic arts, engraved with subtle patterns in the shape of a magic circle, and two god stones are inlaid in the middle of the sword.

"My God Amon! You are..." Mei Danzuo was speechless.

Amon hadn't finished yet, so he reached out and took out a pair of luxurious armor, which was very light in his hand, and the lines engraved with the magic circle were obviously specially made magical artifacts, which had excellent defensive effects. He put all these things in front of Mei Danzuo, smiled and said: "This is how you look like a noble warrior, isn't it?... These were prepared for you a long time ago, and they were not brought out until now, just to be able to Use it."

The spear and shield are extremely sharp and sturdy, while the sword and armor are not simple weapons at first glance, with magical effects added. Mei Danzuo picked up the sword and reached out to touch the armor. He was so excited that he didn't know what to say. After a long time, he raised his head and said, "Selling my ancestral house is not enough to make such a set of weapons. How can I accept it? ? You can lend it to me temporarily."

Amon smiled and shook his head: "These are yours. I also gave Link a staff, but it is inconvenient for you to reveal your identity as a magician in the mainland city-state, so I prepared a set of warrior equipment for you."

Medanzuo saw Link's staff in the wildling tribe, and was drooling with envy at the time. He never expected that Amon had already prepared such a set of equipment for him. In the team that chased and killed Bell back then, the equipment of the warriors was of course top-grade. After that battle, it was able to survive the battle intact. Which one is not a good thing

Mei Danzuo was already quite handsome, but with this armor and a sword around his waist, he rode on a horse with a shield in one hand and a spear in the other. He looked like a majestic God of War, extremely dazzling!

While Amon was talking to Medanzuo, in a separate courtyard behind another inn in Akkad Town, two people were also discussing something. A middle-aged man holding a magic staff said to a young man: "Your Highness, I don't recommend you to take the risk yourself. If you want to save the princess, you can send us there. If Princess Xiaoqian is not rescued, you can go out again." If something happens, it will be troublesome."

The young man called "Your Highness" said: "I passed by the town of Akkad, and Princess Xiaoqian had an accident at this very moment, don't you think I won't be in trouble?... She is the princess of the kingdom , What does it mean when I meet him but refuse to save him? If it gets out, I will lose all my prestige in the kingdom!"

The middle-aged man still persuaded: "Princess Xiaoqian's guards can't resist the attack of the giant tribe. I'm afraid we are no match. Of course, people need to be saved. You send us there. This will not damage your prestige. "

The young man shook his head: "Although I am a bit older than her, she is my aunt. I not only want to save but also go there in person. Princess Xiaoqian is in danger because she was caught off guard. Let's be careful and see the opportunity." Save people instead of fighting giant horde."

The middle-aged man was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and nodded: "You can go in person, no matter whether you can save her or not, this is also a symbol of sincerity and courage. If I didn't consider the possible danger, I would suggest that you go in person But in case of any situation, our responsibility is to protect your safety first."

The young man waved his hand: "Yes, I understand, let's go."

The middle-aged man looked at the staff in his hand, then raised his head and said, "I have a suggestion, please don't reveal your identity for now, don't let people know who you are until you rescue Princess Xiaoqian and meet her. Since the giant tribe wants to kidnap a princess, if they know that you have also gone, they may add another target... If the rescue fails, no one here will know you, and your reputation will not be adversely affected."

The young man nodded: "Okay, I will be a warrior following you for the time being."
