Noble Emblem
127 Two Jessicas
Ordinary travelers can get a silver coin by taking a 'hitchhike', but Liang Lidong doesn't need it. A spell caster like him is willing to join the caravan and go on the road together, which is a great thing for the caravan. Spellcasters represent powerful combat power and are a strong deterrent to anyone. With one more spellcaster in the caravan, the caravan's trip will be safer and more reassuring.
The owner of the caravan is indeed a businessman. Under his propaganda, the news that a spell caster joined their caravan to go to Danyang City soon spread throughout Songfeng City. In just half a day, many travelers approached his caravan, and there were other caravans who were willing to pay some 'security fees' just to take them with them.
Just from this piece of news, the owner of the caravan earned more than one gold coin. In Liang Lidong's view, this money was very little, but in fact, the caravan transported more than a dozen donkey carts of goods to
In Danyang City, the net profit is only a little more than two gold coins. For a spell caster, this little money is nothing, but for ordinary people, it is a huge sum of money.
Liang Lidong naturally knew about this, but he didn't care. The owner of the caravan knows how to use the situation to fight for his own interests. This is normal. In any case, Liang Lidong's vital interests are not harmed. It is other people's ability to make some small money for themselves without harming the interests of others. , others cannot be too demanding.
As for Liang Lidong’s opinion.
The owner of the caravan is called Denver, a very common name.
The Denverite also looks very ordinary, and his personality is that of an ordinary businessman, who emphasizes being harmonious and making money. But he has an extraordinary daughter.
After the caravan set out on the road, Liang Lidong was invited to Danfo's special donkey cart. This car was more comfortable, but of course it was far inferior to the carriages specially used by nobles.
Denver is a well-traveled person, so he can chat with Liang Lidong. On a long trip like this, it would be very boring if there was no one to talk to. The two chatted all over the world, from the snowy winter plains in the north to the desert kingdom in the south and the barbarian lands in the west. We talked about the Elf Forest to the east, and finally talked about Denver’s daughter.
His daughter is a magician, the magician of the Colorless Tower.
After hearing the introduction, Liang Lidong was very moved. As long as players are willing, as long as they 'add points' correctly when creating a character, everyone can become a magician. However, NPCs are different. It is very difficult to become a magician. Putting aside the issue of talent, the money alone to learn magic can make most people despair.
The Colorless Magic Tower is a place to train space magicians, and it is a spell caster that requires more talent. If Denver's daughter can enter the Colorless Magic Tower, she is already one of ten thousand talents.
Seeing Liang Lidong's surprised expression, Denver was very proud. He talked about his daughter's advantages with great enthusiasm.
She is very pretty. She is very cute and considerate, and is the cutest daughter in the world.
Money earned in Denver. Almost all of them are sent to my daughter, so that she can learn magic with peace of mind. After all, learning magic is a very expensive thing.
"My daughter has been studying magic for five years and has learned three magics. I remember one is called space folding, one is called curve acceleration. And one is called stellar explosion!" Denver's words were full of strong pride: "Look Looking at such a magic name, it sounds like a very powerful magic."
Liang Lidong frowned. Although these three magics can barely be regarded as magic, and their names sound scary, the others should be classified as tricks... which is the lowest level. The least powerful magic is also a small trick used by charlatans pretending to be bards to deceive ordinary people.
It took five years to learn three tricks... This is already a sign of not having much ability. To be honest, Liang Lidong is not optimistic about her daughter's future. Maybe she can barely learn one or two low-level magics in the future. In the eyes of ordinary people, He is a high-ranking magician, but in the eyes of those in the same profession, he is the lowest level.
However, Liang Lidong did not intend to say anything. Everyone has the belief to strive for. For Denver, making money for his daughter to learn magic is his lifelong goal.
Then Liang Lidong learned the name of Denver's daughter, Martha Monroe.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye. During these three days, Liang Lidong and Denver had developed some friendship. Before leaving, Liang Lidong said to Denver: "If one day, your daughter encounters any difficulties, Now, you can ask her to come to me in Reed Village near Winterwind City, where I am the bishop. Of course, if it is something beyond my scope and ability, I will deal with it alone."
"This is natural." Denver was overjoyed. He knew very well how rare and difficult it was for a spellcaster to make a commitment.
Then at the gate of Danyang City, Liang Lidong parted ways with the caravan.
It is noon at this time. Although it is summer, Danyang City is built among mountains, so the temperature here is several degrees lower than other cities on the same latitude. Coupled with the mountain breeze blowing on the face, the whole city looks very refreshing. .
There doesn't seem to be much difference in urban planning and layout between Danyang City and Dongfeng City. If I have to say, there are more beggars here than in Dongfeng City. As soon as Liang Lidong entered the city, he saw many beggars or Squatting or sitting on both sides of the street, they were basking in the sun, wearing ragged clothes and looking numb.
There were men, women, and children among the beggars. Liang Lidong even saw a little beggar marked lv1.
Professional beggar? Beggars? Or is it still a hidden profession?
About three hours ago, not long after Liang Lidong came out of the ruins, a robbery occurred on the rich street in Danyang City. A dozen beggars robbed a rich man and also took the carriage on the The woman was kidnapped.
The Sheriff was furious about this and sent out all his men. Soon they found clues and found the naked lady in a drainage ditch. Her whole body was covered with white stains. The stains mixed with the black dirt in the stinking ditch turned into an ambiguous gray.
The power behind this noble lady is not weak. A dozen beggars would not have the courage to touch her, unless there was something ulterior behind it. The Sheriff checked for two days and found nothing. In anger, a massacre of beggars spread across the city began.
Jessica is a beggar. She has been a beggar for as long as she can remember. She has been a beggar for seven years. She couldn't remember who her parents were, but she still remembered her name, Jessica.
This is also a very common female name. There are not hundreds of women named Jessica in Danyang City, but at least fifty.
Jessica's name is very common. But she is not ordinary, or should be said, Jessica feels that she is not ordinary.
She has a sharp nose and sharp teeth.
Generally speaking, every beggar has sharp teeth, but her teeth are different. Her two canines are longer than ordinary people, so she can crush bones into pieces and eat them into her stomach.
The marrow in bones is very nutritious. Four-year-old Jessica could chew bones into pieces, so she survived, even though she was skinny and smelly.
She was originally a little beggar who begged for food on the streets of the rich area. The rich people there often threw out the leftover bones, so for her, the rich area was her territory, as long as other beggars dared to run in. She would rush forward and fight with others, even though she was small. But with this fierceness, she acquired a small territory in a wealthy area and lived like a stray dog.
Until yesterday’s beggar raid.
Jessica felt that she was very powerful, but she was not confident enough to fight against more than a dozen city guards. In other words, she could not deal with any of them.
I don't know what went crazy with these city guards. He would chop beggars whenever he saw them. If Jessica hadn't had a very good nose, she would have smelled the smell of blood early. If she hadn't been vigilant in advance, she would have run out of the city as soon as she saw the city guards coming with bloody weapons. . Otherwise she would have died in the hands of those murderous guards.
Jessica and many fast-footed beggars ran outside the city. The massacre in the city continued all night. When she went back the next day, she found that many familiar faces were missing and the whole city was filled with the smell of blood.
Jessica no longer dares to go back to the rich area. She is very scared. Now she stays near the city gate. If anything goes wrong, she will run out of the city.
There aren't many families here at the city gate, and even if there are, they are poor. They hardly throw out food because they don't have enough to eat.
So now Jessica is hungry, terribly hungry. In the morning, a noble child came here at the city gate. He was a little boy about her age. He had soft dark blond hair tied into a single horsehair and was tied behind his back. He had clear features and beautiful features. He looked at the beggars on both sides of the street from the tall carriage with a look of superior sympathy on his face. Then he grabbed a handful of copper coins from the carriage. Thrown into the street.
At that time, almost all the beggars who escaped from the massacre concentrated near the city entrance. Throwing out a handful of copper coins attracted at least a hundred beggars to grab them, including Jessica.
The handsome little aristocratic boy was lying on the carriage window, looking at the group of beggars snatching copper coins, looking at his masterpiece, and laughing.
Jessica grabbed a copper coin from the crowd, and then she went to the food store and bought three loaves of bread to eat. This was the best food she had ever eaten. Originally, one copper coin could buy six loaves, but the shopkeeper said she was too smelly and affected her business, so she had to deduct three loaves from her.
Jessica didn't feel anything was wrong, she even felt that this was the truth, who called her a smelly and dirty beggar.
Eating the bread happily, Jessica was a little grateful to the little boy, thinking that he was a good person and gave her at least three pieces of bread to eat. After eating the bread, Jessica lay sideways to bask in the sun. She has always liked to bask in the sun after eating since she was a child. She thinks it is because she often bask in the sun, so she is not too afraid of the cold.
Danyang City is very cold every winter, and many beggars freeze to death every winter, but Jessica can always endure it.
The sunshine was so comfortable that one almost fell asleep, but suddenly Jessica heard a commotion among the beggars, and then it quickly became quiet. She opened her eyes curiously, and then saw a young man in a red robe coming from Walking in from outside the city gate, he had bright golden hair, shining brightly in the sun.
Priest, spell caster!
Seeing him, no matter the city gate guards, pedestrians, or beggars like them, they closed their mouths tightly and did not dare to take a breath.
Jessica shivered all over, and then immediately crawled to the ground. Everyone was afraid of spell casters, and Jessica was no exception. But for some reason, she felt that this priest was very 'scary', and there was something inexplicable about it. The pressure forced her to surrender. She had lived in Danyang City for seven years and had seen spellcasters several times, but never had one made her feel so uncomfortable that she could not breathe.
Especially when the spellcaster turned his gaze over, she felt her whole body twitching.
But fortunately, the spellcaster quickly looked away, then left, heading towards the center of the city.
After the man left, the city gate that had been silent for a while finally came to life. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time. Jessica patted her chest. She was so scared that she almost peed. Spread out.
Everyone hopes that they can become a spell caster, and Jessica is no exception. Of course, she knows that this is just a luxury wish, so her ideal is to become a maid.
Being a maid is not difficult, all you need to do is sweep the floor, light the fire, and cook, but you can get a small room to stay in, a quilt to sleep on, and you won't go hungry all day long.
But no one wanted to find her as a maid because she was smelly, dirty, and a beggar. However, she heard that as long as a woman grows up and grows two big steamed buns, she can easily become a maid. Noble men all like big steamed buns. As long as there are big steamed buns, a woman will have a way to survive.
Jessica was convinced of this, because beggars were almost all men, and even if there were female beggars, they were either dirty and thin little girls like her, or skinny women without big buns.
After the spellcaster left for a while, Jessica finally calmed down completely. When she was about to continue basking in the sun, there was a sudden noise at the city gate. She straightened up and took a look and found that it was the Rose Mercenary Group coming from outside the city. came back.
The leader was a dazzling beauty mercenary. She had fiery red hair and two big buns covered by white leather armor. Jessica recognized her, the leader of the Rose Mercenary Group, Jessica-Lu. West.
Everyone calls her ‘Jessica’, but her life trajectory is completely different.
There are thirteen people in the Rose Mercenary Group who came back from the outside. The last three people in the team are dragging a huge beast at the same time. This beast is a giant wild boar with a body length of five meters. Its two long tusks are at least two meters long. It seems they completed a high-commission mission.
so good! If I were also a professional, maybe I could become someone like her. Jessica couldn't help but think like this.
Jessica Ruth was a famous person in Danyang City, so little Jessica naturally recognized her. Just when the latter was imagining what kind of life she would have if she was also a professional, she heard a crisp sound.
A silver coin fell in front of him, still spinning. In the center of the street, Jessica Ruth gave her a friendly smile as she walked by. (To be continued...)
