When Ye Qi was about to leave, the grocer held a cloth bag full of various foods and handed it to Ye Qi: "This is the snack and cider made by Edward and I; It is worth a lot, but you must accept these things!"
"The value also depends on the person! In my opinion, these things are the best gifts for Midsummer's Day!" Ye Qi took the cloth bag and held it in his left hand, saying goodbye to the two of them. In addition to giving the 'monitor' and himself a chance, Ye Qi also cared a lot about the recent situation of the two in Shark; even if they were not very good friends, the friendship between the two was enough to make everyone feel happy. He exhibits an attitude that distinguishes him from strangers.
However, it is obvious that the 'monitor' is unusually clever. Not only does he keep a considerable distance from him, but every time his sight stays on him, it is definitely only for a moment. Before he becomes alert, he will look away. Maybe we should bless [Rotting Capsule] to obtain a temporary perception bonus to find the opponent
Such an idea was rejected by Ye Qi the moment it appeared. With +8 temporary perception, it is definitely not difficult to find the other party, but he can't guarantee that the person who 'monitored' him is the one he wants. The backhand left by the head of the referee he was looking for is likely to be the opponent's subordinate or helper; if it is the latter, then his attempt to lure the snake out of the hole this time will definitely become a plan to scare the snake out of the grass and become a complete failure.
Therefore, after thinking for a moment, Ye Qi followed the original plan and walked towards the small building where he temporarily stayed for one night. There was a carriage to pick him up to the central castle; he was the envoy for this negotiation with the Holy See. Although he has the current plan. But it is necessary to be present when it is time to be present. Moreover, last night's attack will naturally not be revealed in such a simple opening, and the other party must have an explanation.
Even last night, Ted had already contacted the cold-faced man to make a big fuss about this matter; then, several impossible clauses became possible, even though the leading priest with a knife had already been smashed to pieces , but those deacons in black who carried out the plan were all caught; under the torture of the tower owner of the Tower of Thorns. These deacons in black didn't even hold on for an hour, and told everything they knew.
Although the information is very messy, and the identity of the deacon in black dooms them to know too much, but these are enough to be conclusive evidence. Of course, such evidence is naturally nothing to the Holy See; Even if the cardinal Zola denied it flatly, it would not surprise the demon hunters; however, it was enough for another neutral cardinal.
What's more, the skill of negotiation is not to seek truth from facts at all, but to blackmail the other party by various means; after all. It is impossible for the other party to know what verbal deceit they have mastered, which will not appear in the life of the witcher; however. Demon hunters don't mind using it on the negotiating table, especially when facing enemies.
"Excuse me... are you Your Excellency Ye Qi?"
When Ye Qi was less than 50 yards away from the small building, a young man stood in front of him. He was dressed in festive attire, with slightly blurred eyes after a hangover, and a thin and thin figure. The smooth fingertips and joints of the left and right hands can prove that the young man in front of him is just an ordinary person who came to Shark to participate in the celebration.
"Um!"
"A gentleman asked me to send you a message. He said, please wait for him at the intersection one block away; if you don't go, the important thing you left with him will say goodbye to you forever !” After Ye Qi nodded, the young man said directly, and pointed the direction for Ye Qi.
"Oh? Did he say his name, or do you remember what he looked like?"
Even though he knew it was impossible, Ye Qi still asked the question, and the answer was an unexpected disappointment.
"During the Midsummer Festival, everyone was just drinking and chatting. How could they ask for other people's names? Moreover, after a few bottles of rum, I can clearly remember the message that the gentleman asked me to pass on, which is already considered extraordinary. It's not easy!" The young man shrugged his shoulders, and answered Ye Qi in a casual way unique to young people: "However, he is very generous. He invited a lot of people to the tavern yesterday. If you don't mind , you can go to the tavern not far from next door to inquire; although most people are drunk, I think the owner and waiter of the bar will definitely have an influence; after all, such generous guests are not common!"
"I won't cause you any trouble, will I?"
Seeing Ye Qi frowning, the young man couldn't help asking anxiously.
"Nothing, I was just wondering, which of my friends would play such a joke on me again; you know, among the people I know, there are quite a few people like this! But thank you for sending the word!" As he said that, Ye Qi took out a fifty-fifty banknote and put it in the hand of the young man in front of him. During the period, the right hand he had been using all the time showed the inflexibility that ordinary people could hardly detect.
"You and your friends are generous people! Happy Midsummer!"
After the young man reached out to take the coins, he immediately waved his arms happily and left to the side.
Ye Qi didn't stop the other party from leaving. It was obvious that the other party was a messenger after receiving the money. His thin body, smooth hands and callus-free fingertips and joints undoubtedly showed that the other party had never practiced any martial arts, and The shooting training, coupled with the fluctuations in [Blind Fighting Perception], which is completely indistinguishable from ordinary people, is enough to explain the opponent's identity.
I put an important thing with him...
Ye Qi pondered the meaning of this sentence in his heart, and he was not slow in his actions. He casually recruited the rangers patrolling the street, and after identifying himself, he immediately asked the other party to pass the message to Ted, then turned to Ted. Go to the place agreed by the other party. Although it is not clear what the important thing is, since the other party has said such words, it must be relied on; and follow the style of the priest with the knife last night. The other party is that person's backhand. Obviously it wouldn't be too noble; threaten him with some low-handed means. It is also very normal.
If he didn't pay attention to the other party's behavior, and the other party did something excessive, then Ye Qi would naturally feel regret and guilt. Therefore, he asked Ted to investigate and prepare to support, and he did what the other party said Going to the appointment is the safest guarantee.
At least. The plan went well, and the other party really appeared.
With this in mind, Ye Qi walked towards the intersection of another block. It was not too far from Ye Qi's location to the intersection of another block, about two hundred yards away; adults walked over It was only two or three minutes, and although Ye Qi was observing the surroundings, he did not deliberately delay, and appeared at the place agreed by the other party at a normal time.
However, there are scattered tourists who didn't have a hangover and got up early last night except here and there. As well as the two teams of patrolling rangers, there is no existence. And after Ye Qi stood there for ten minutes, the surrounding situation still remained unchanged.
Are you still watching...
Ye Qi guessed the other party's behavior like this. From the beginning of his 'surveillance', the other party showed considerable caution and caution. Unlike the priest with a knife last night, the one who appeared later was cautious and careful, far from The existence of the former with distorted personality can be compared; the words 'cunning and malicious' from the tower master of the tower of wisdom are obviously more appropriate and suitable for the other party.
As for the former
Other than the hideousness and distortion, Ye Qi didn't have much impression.
Roll, roll...
The wooden wheels rolled on the gravel paved road, making a unique sound, the iron bearings and the rhythm of the wheels buffered, even in the streets of Shaker in the early morning, it is not common; as a tourist for income The atmosphere of the city and Shaker is full of leisure and ease at any time; therefore, although the carriage is its means of transportation, it will not appear on the street at this time of the morning.
Looking at this carriage drawn by a horse, the carriage is much smaller than the carriages Ye Qi has seen, it is the size of a double bench, obviously, it can only accommodate one or two people; And at this time, through the induction of [Blind Fighting Perception], Ye Qi can be sure that there is no one inside.
This should be the former traveling carriage!
As the carriage approached, looking at the special groove at the driver's position in front of the carriage, Ye Qi made an accurate judgment. Although the groove is completely empty at this time, at the original position, According to the size of the groove, a double-barreled shotgun should be inserted here; and such a configuration does not often appear on carriages, especially in modern times, when automobiles have become the main means of transportation. Disappeared without a trace.
However, when the Freedom Era had just arrived fifty years ago, such a carriage was extremely popular among people who love to travel. Although the scenery is charming and the stories on the journey are unforgettable, their own safety is still very important. It is very important; therefore, everyone who travels will prepare some necessary means, especially when traveling alone, it needs considerable weapons as a necessary measure to ensure the safety of life.
"Excuse me, is this Your Excellency Ye Qi?"
The coachman jumped out of the carriage and asked Ye Qi that the other party was probably not a native of Shake. Ye Qi confirmed it after seeing the other party for the first time; The words and deeds of the Shakers; however, for some things, it is obvious that this person exists, and the imitation is not in place; in addition, when the other party asks him, he is a little cautious, but full of expectations, looking like a job seeker or a part-time worker. It was enough for Ye Qi to make a guess.
Such people are not uncommon in Shaker, especially as Shaker’s fame has grown in recent years, and more rich people are willing to spend more vacations in Shaker, some people who follow Those who act with Kimpton will inevitably come to Shaker. Ye Qi does not have any contempt for this; after all, he is different from those mercenaries who are like vultures eating rotting corpses and greedily collecting Kimpton. However, these people in front of them are just trying to live a better life for themselves and their families.
Therefore, Ye Qi naturally would not embarrass such a person
"Yes!"
Slightly nodding his head, Ye Qi gave an affirmative answer.
"Your Excellency Ye Qi, hello! Your friend asked me to pick you up here. Go to the picnic!"
The coachman immediately took off his hat and saluted. Then the door of the carriage was opened, and the interior of the carriage looked slightly larger than it looked from the outside. Moreover, the entire carriage is very clean and fully equipped, not only is it covered with thick down that makes people feel comfortable after seeing it; and under the only chair, Ye Qi smells the smell of pastries, meat and mead. smell.
"Is this your car?"
Ye Qi withdrew his scrutiny, and asked the coachman. Although the 'monitor' was quite cautious and cautious, Ye Qi would never believe that the other party would be so considerate.
"Yes, Your Excellency Ye Qi!"
The coachman nodded humbly, and then. He made a gesture of invitation to Ye Qi.
"A very caring person!"
After Ye Qi made a sincere evaluation, he jumped straight into the carriage. The other party was apparently also a 'temporary employee' hired by the money. It was undoubtedly unrealistic to ask anything from the other party's mouth; There will always be a moment when the invitations are repeated one after another. He just needs to patiently follow the rhythm of the other party.
I hope that the surprises we each prepared will satisfy each other!
With this in mind, Ye Qi leaned straight on the only chair in the car, and slowly closed his eyes. I have to say that the driver's skills are very good. After leaving the flat gravel path in downtown Shaker and entering the suburbs. On the rough path, the entire carriage is still stable; although there are iron axles and shock absorbers in it, the most important thing is the driver's technology.
At least, in Ye Qi's opinion, the driver's driving skills did not belong to the retired ranger who drove him to meet the Holy See that night.
After leaving the urban area of Shaker and driving in the suburbs for nearly forty minutes, the carriage gradually slowed down
It's getting close to Shark's border here...
After looking up at the scenery outside the window, Ye Qi thought to himself that the other party chose such a place, obviously he did not designate it at random; after wanting to 'kill him' again, and escape from the hunting of the demon hunters as much as possible, this place is undoubtedly the best place. The best place; after all, on the territory of the demon hunter, even if the head of the Inquisition came in person, he had to be careful; and if he left this place, then it was not necessarily so.
The advantage of the terrain, any designated planner, will not deliberately ignore it.
"Your Excellency Ye Qi, we have arrived!"
The coachman stopped the carriage and opened the door. After Ye Qi jumped out of the carriage, he pointed to a grove that was already smoking and said, "Your friend has already prepared everything for the picnic there." Do you need me to accompany you there?"
"No need, your driving skills are really good, I hope to take your car again next time!"
Ye Qi waved his hand with a smile, took out a banknote, and put it in the opponent's hand; this action made the smile on the driver's face even stronger, especially after seeing the denomination of the banknote , he became more respectful towards Ye Qi: "Your Excellency Ye Qi, do you need me to wait for you here?"
"When I invited, it was for the surprise! And when I go back, of course I need to go through, thank you for your kindness; but, I think my friend has prepared a carriage for me!" Ye Qi pointed, and there was smoke billowing in the distance. Place: "A picnic isn't a party, but being late will make the host angry; see you then!"
"Happy Midsummer's Day to you! It is my honor to serve you, and I look forward to your next contact!"
The coachman yelled loudly to Ye Qi's back; then, he turned the carriage and started to return to Shake. , this coachman has the simplicity of all the people who make a living; he will never have to rest in the next week just because he earned a week's income at one point in time; let alone an annual festival like Midsummer's Day. He wouldn't forgive himself for grabbing it; after all, this was a great opportunity to get money for himself and his family.
Listening to the receding of the carriage behind him, until it was beyond the range of [Blind Fighting Perception], Ye Qi had already walked to the smoky grove, and through the gap between the trees, he clearly saw In the middle of the forest of trees, a clearing appeared.
The soil that has just been turned and compacted undoubtedly shows that this place has just been felled and repaired
A clean white round table is covered with a golden tablecloth, and a porcelain vase with a beautiful arc is placed in the center of the table. A bouquet of golden tulips is inserted in the vase, echoing the tablecloth, creating an illusion I thought it was a tulip garden; there were two chairs on both sides of the round table.
On one of the chairs, there was a man in his thirties, with a well-tailored black dress, trimmed beard and hair, and an elegant hand holding a teacup; If someone feels uncomfortable, the other party is undoubtedly a model that can represent the style of the upper class.
"Shaker's Dragon, welcome!"
The hooked-nosed man stood up from the chair, and looked at Ye Qi who walked in with a smile on his face.
