Quadruple split

All in all, after a brief exchange with Ji Xiaoge, Mo Tan began to hurry up and try to reach the border city in the westernmost part of the Spirit Wilderness as quickly as possible, because there were no people from the Viper Chamber of Commerce all day yesterday. Move, so if he works harder, he should be able to catch up with the opponent within a few hours and meet up with Ji Xiaoge and others in the city.

Although there was no horse, Mo Tan, who had been stuck in the CD and used charge and falcon attack all the way, was by no means slow. He successfully arrived at his destination three hours later, at 12:18 AM, the game time, which was located in the Fairy Wilderness and Caselo. [Asakusa Castle] among the grasslands.

This place is the largest population gathering place within a hundred miles. Although it is not very prosperous and is incomparable with places like Anka Market, which is close to the northwest trade center, it is located right between the Cassero Grassland and the Fairy Wilderness. time, so there are nearly 10,000 floating people, most of whom are caravans carrying different goods, such as those who transport leather from the Manya Wilderness to the north, those who sell war horses from Caselo to the south, and those who import from the Anka Market to the west. There is an endless stream of merchants selling luxury goods and buying wholesale grains from the Savage Highlands eastward, making this place that is surrounded by a lot of people more popular.

Perhaps because they feel that this place is quite profitable and not very peaceful, the all-pervasive Gold Coin Merchant Guild, the Adventurer Guild, and the Mercenary Guild have all established small-scale strongholds here to provide convenient services to passers-by. Many mercenaries who are not particularly powerful Soldiers or adventurers also work hard to promote themselves, hoping to get some jobs such as guard work to make this small town appear vibrant.

"Hey, this half-dragon guy~"

In the central square, a dwarf who came out of nowhere suddenly grabbed Mo Tan and pointed at the two-handed sword behind him: "There is a small harpy caravan over there that plans to go to the south to sell goods, and is currently collecting funds. I am a lower-level guard. I have exactly eight brothers here, and you have just enough people. It will take a total of three days and two nights to go back and forth. The reward is ten gold coins and 20% is paid in advance. What do you think?"

Mo Tan waved his hand and politely refused: "I appreciate the kindness, but I have no plans in this regard for the time being. You'd better find someone else."

"Haha, young man, don't rush to conclusions yet."

The middle-aged dwarf patted Mo Tan's back hard, smiled and pursed his lips in the distance: "That's the harpy. You are so pretty. If someone takes a fancy to you, you can have a drink in the evening." Once you have a drink, the small tent will… eh?”

Mo Tan still had the same smile as before, but his right hand gently grabbed the other's paw that quietly reached for his pocket, and politely refused again: "Sorry, I am not interested in being a guard or a fat sheep."

After saying that, he put a little more force on his hand.

The middle-aged dwarf was sweating at that moment. He forced a smile and patted the wrist that Mo Tan held tightly: "Little brother, stay safe in case of trouble so that we can meet again in the future."

"You have a point."

Mo Tan nodded with special sympathy and said with a smile: "Then please keep a line when you encounter real fat sheep in the future. Leave some travel expenses, food and other things for others. After all, it is not easy to go out to hang out."

The dwarf's big red face had now turned a little blue, and he immediately nodded and said: "Yes, yes, there are rules in our industry. Little brother, you don't need to tell me that I won't trick people into death."

"hope so."

Mo Tan let go of the other party's wrist and bowed slightly: "If you don't have anything else to do, I'll leave first?"

"Walk slowly, walk slowly~"

The dwarf man laughed twice, then squeezed into the crowd and disappeared without looking back.

At the same time, Mo Tan also noticed that there were far fewer people looking at him covertly. Visually, this was because his idea was tricky and not suitable as a deception target.

"How about it? Are the folk customs here quite 'simple'?"

A powerful bass sounded behind Mo Tan. Jadeka came over and patted Mo Tan on the shoulder, showing a somewhat reluctant smile: "Ye Ge said you were almost there, so I took the initiative to come out and take a look. See if I can bump into you."

Mo Tan laughed sarcastically and touched the tip of his nose awkwardly: "I really didn't expect you three to catch up."

"It's just a coincidence."

Jadeka stroked his white beard and pointed to a tavern not far away: "Let's go, everyone is waiting for you. Dabus and I have been asking Ye Ge for a long time, and the girl insists on waiting for you. Let’s talk about it when we get there.”

…

five minutes later

Asakusa Castle Central Plaza, a room on the second floor of [Little Bucktooth Tavern]

"Meowang!"

As soon as Mo Tan opened the door, he was thrown to the ground by the girl who rushed over. He didn't react until the girl started to try to come over and lick his cheek. He pressed the dog girl's shoulders and held her half a meter away from him. Foreign: "Hi, Yaya."

"Does Mowang not want to bark anymore?"

Yaya wrinkled his nose and blinked his big eyes pitifully: "Why does Mowang bark without saying hello?"

"Be good, no one said I don't want you." Ji Xiaoge came over, hugged Yaya's waist and pulled her away from Mo Tan, shrugging at the latter: "Now, what should we do now? Should we be lenient or not? Be strict? Make up your mind quickly."

The implication is that I haven’t said anything yet, so you can figure it out yourself.

Mo Tan stood up and looked around at the several adventurers crowded in the hut. Except for the lack of... heartless teeth, whether it was Jadeka or Dabus (Anthony fell asleep with drool) ) expressions were quite solemn, and they were obviously not very satisfied with themselves and Ji Xiaoge leaving without saying goodbye.

But just when he was about to think about what to say, he suddenly noticed that the new clothes on Dabbs looked a bit familiar.

Why does that wide dark green fabric look like the tent that someone stole before? !

Dabbs noticed Mo Tan's strange gaze, scratched his butt curiously (Anthony didn't like bathing), and asked, "Uh, is there something on my face?"

"That's not..."

Mo Tanqian laughed and pointed at the loose 'clothes' on the other party: "This looks familiar to me."

Dabbs was stunned for a moment and tugged at his new cloak: "This, this is mine... well, Anthony picked it up on the road while I was sleeping."

"Picked it up?"

Mo Tan was also stunned. He carefully looked at the item on the other party's body that was obviously not clothes, and asked doubtfully: "Where did you pick it up?"

"I'm not sure about this either."

Dabus shook his big head, then turned to Jadeka: "Um, Uncle Jia, what happened this morning?"

The latter coughed slightly and spread his hands to Mo Tan: "Ahem, that's what happened. I, Yaya, and brother Anthony Dabus were on the road this morning, but for some reason Dabus suddenly fell asleep. , and then within a few minutes Anthony started to complain that he was hungry. As soon as I was thinking about where to find some food for him, the child ran away screaming. Yaya and I chased him for half an hour before we caught up with him. He has already picked up this, and he also picked up... uh..."

Ji Xiaoge, Mo Tan and Dabus asked at the same time: "What else did you pick up?"

"I even picked up a dog!"

Yaya happily raised his little hand and answered.

【A horse? 】

Mo Tan suddenly had a bad premonition and keenly noticed that Ji Xiaoge was about to start laughing. This girl knew that she had thrown something away.

Sure enough, Jadka then translated: "A horse."

Mo Tan immediately covered his face, and after a while, he ignored the stifled laughter beside him and asked with a sad face: "Where is the horse?"

Yaya pointed downstairs obediently.

Mo Tan was overjoyed: "Is he tied downstairs?!"

"Not barking downstairs."

Yaya shook his head solemnly and explained: "In the Wang's Room downstairs, Tony Wang had a stomachache. He went there several times, and he probably ended up there."

Jadeka continued to translate simultaneously: "Yaya said that Ma should be in the toilet downstairs at this moment. Anthony had a stomachache for a long time in the morning and went to the toilet to defecate several times... Girl, you can't speak so bluntly! "

"Pfft hahahahahahahahahahahahaha~~!"

Ji Xiaoge, who had been holding back his laughter, finally succeeded and buried his head on Yaya's shoulder, laughing until he was out of breath.

Yes, this is for eating...

Mo Tan laughed dryly in apology, then sighed haggardly, waved his hands and said, "Well, I understand..."

No matter how slow his reaction was, Dabbs realized it now. Without saying a word, he slapped the sleeping Anthony (on the head), pinched the other person's dazed face and asked loudly : "Didn't you say that these clothes were picked up?! What happened to the horse?!"

Anthony hadn't fully woken up yet. Hearing this, he just grinned in a daze and muttered: "Ma, it's delicious."

Dabus looked ashen and turned to Mo Tan stiffly: "What about that, Brother Mo..."

"it's okay no problem."

Mo Tan waved his hand, shook his head and said, "It should be just an accident."

After two sentences, Anthony also came to his senses. The guy's little eyes turned slightly, and then he looked at Jadeka and Yaya with a particularly aggrieved look: "Didn't you say that you were helping Anthony hide the truth from Dabus? ?”

"That's what I said, but it seems that you have eaten one of our own."

Jadeka looked helpless, then turned to Mo Tan and asked curiously: "So you are the idiot who left only the tent and the horse?"

Mo Tan nodded mechanically.

"Tony Wang just happened to be barking when he got there, and then he saw the puppy."

Yaya jumped up and added next to him: "I saw a bunch of bonfires, so I roasted that one. When Wang and Wandeka chased after him, there was only half of the dog left. Well, Wang also took two bites. .”

The dog girl scratched her hair in embarrassment at the end.

Mo Tan covered his face and nodded: "Eat, eat..."

Yaya pointed at Jadeka again: "Wandeka also ate it!"

Jadeka's face turned red.

Mo Tan, who was mourning for the horse, continued to cover his face and nodded: "Eat, eat."

Ji Xiaoge supported the wall softly: "Hahahahahahahahahaha~!"

Mo Tan looked up to the sky and sighed: "Laugh, laugh."

…

After a while, the person who went there said that he gave Anthony twenty minutes of ideological education in Dabus (You can’t eat other people’s horses! / Then eat, your own horses? / Can’t eat! / Delicious ~ / That horse’s) What should the master do?!/Eat together?) After that, everyone got back to the topic.

"To put it simply, the cause was that Anthony cooked most of the aquatic products in the Blackwater Lake with a series of fireballs, causing nearby residents to go berserk, and then he was complained to the Adventurer's Guild." Mo Tan sat cross-legged on the bed, He concluded with a sad face: "I was finally sent back to Anka Market, and I went berserk due to excessive hunger, so I rushed out of Anka, chasing after the smell left by Ye Ge... Cannibalism Is the devil’s nose that useful?”

Dabbs shrugged: "I have an average sense of smell, but Anthony is extremely talented."

"Ya Ya and I had just returned from the small plain in the south. When we heard about this incident, we immediately chased him."

Jadeka took a sip of hot tea, squatted by the wall and added: "Although we did not catch up with Dabus and the others immediately, we happened to encounter the two centaur tribes mentioned in mission 17580 on the road. That should be Mo's mission, but they said that no one came to mediate at all, and they reconciled themselves after trying to fight each other."

"Then they caught up with Dabbs."

Ji Xiaoge, who was sitting on the back of the chair (to facilitate the placement of wings) stretched his body, turned to Mo Tan and smiled: "Because I often fly, Anthony lost me later, but Yaya remembers our smell, So I took them and continued to chase them. They should have been lost after you...well, where you were camping, and then they found them here."

"so……"

Jadeka put down the tea cup in his hand, frowned and asked the two of them: "Why did you suddenly leave without saying goodbye? You also asked Ms. Chris from the Adventurer's Guild to cooperate in hiding us. After all, we have been partners together for such a long time. Everything can be discussed, right?"

Dabbs added in real time: "The possibility of elopement has been ruled out first, you understand."

Ji Xiaoge curled his lips coquettishly.

Mo Tan hesitated for a while, then spread his hands helplessly: "Actually, I found something. I originally planned to deal with it alone, but Ye Ge happened to touch me, so..."

"Woo!"

Yaya interrupted him in a particularly aggrieved manner, folding her ears pitifully: "Wang Tiantian touches you..."

"Ahem, Mo didn't mean that."

Jadeka pressed Yaya's head, frowned and asked Mo Tan, "Are you going to do something particularly dangerous?"

Because of a certain cheating talent, Mo Tan could only remain silent.

"If you don't speak, you'll be acquiescing."

Jadeka smoothed his beard and showed a wrinkled smile: "I know you relatively well, and I don't think the speculation that you two think Anthony is troublesome is valid (Dabus smiled awkwardly), so the first My first reaction was that you are probably going to do something dangerous, and it seems I was right."

"belch……"

Ji Xiaoge, who had been laughing so hard before, couldn't help but burp.

Mo Tan sighed, knowing that there was no way around this matter.

Perhaps because of the battle in Misha County, his mentality suddenly changed slightly.

"Okay...I said that's it..."
