The bright sun hangs high in the sky, pouring bright sunlight on the earth.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead did not stay where he was for long and continued on his way.
After wandering outside for many days, he just wanted to return to the city as soon as possible.
More than an hour later, he bypassed the large swamp blocking the way.
Away from the swamp, the road became much smoother.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, tried his best to choose a place with gravel to drive, because this kind of terrain would not be very muddy and he could keep going at a faster speed.
"There's someone there."
Many people appeared in front of them. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stopped when he saw it.
He stopped and watched, and soon knew the identity of the person in the distance.
One carriage after another with flags stuck in the mud, several people helped push the carriage.
I finally managed to get the car out of the jam, but just after driving a little further, it got stuck in the mud again.
The short and fat businessman looked anxious, because according to the current situation, they would not be able to reach Zecheng before dark.
If there is another heavy rainstorm, they will have to be trapped in the wild for several days. Over time, many goods shipped to Zecheng will have problems, and the losses will be very heavy.
"call……"
Several of the guards pushing the carriage were panting from exhaustion. They stopped what they were doing, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and looked into the distance.
At this time, the figure of the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead came into view of the guards, and they suddenly became very vigilant.
"Brother, he seems to be alone."
"If he is a robber, his companions may be hiding in the dark."
"That makes sense. It's better for us to be more careful."
Several guards were discussing in low voices. When the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead saw this, he knew what they were worried about, so he did not approach the guards rashly and passed by the convoy at a safer distance.
Not long after, these guards saw this strange passerby disappearing into the distance.
The pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead encountered several convoys on the road, and these people encountered similar difficulties.
No way, after the rain, the ground became very muddy, so it was very unsuitable for vehicles.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead thought it would be difficult for him to walk in such mud, but now that he saw the trapped convoys, he suddenly felt that his difficulties were nothing.
My mood improved a little, and my speed on the road could not help but increase a little.
It was approaching noon, and a towering city wall appeared in the distance.
The moment the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead saw the city wall, a very happy smile appeared on his face.
We set off early in the morning and spent several hours on the road. Now we finally see our destination. It’s not easy.
Because the rain had just stopped not long ago, there were many people queuing up at the city gate to enter and exit the city.
The lively scene before us was similar to a few days ago, when the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead came out of the city and saw many people queuing in and out of the city.
But one thing is different, that is, there are fewer fishermen fishing in the lake today.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead quickened his pace and walked far away, and soon came to line up in front of the city gate.
The queue to enter the city was a bit slow today. If you look closely, you will find that the soldiers are very strict about checking some vehicles entering the city.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead couldn't help but have some guesses when he saw this scene.
Since he has not been in the city these days, it is not clear whether the rebels are causing trouble.
Now the soldiers are strictly checking the vehicles entering the city, and they may have some connection with the rebels.
After a while, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead lined up to enter the city.
Unlike outside the city, there are not many mud pits inside the city because the ground is paved with bluestone bricks.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead felt very relaxed when he stepped on the flat road.
There were many empty carriages parked where they usually parked. The coachmen yawned out of boredom because there were no guests.
The pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at his feet. Because they were stained with a lot of mud, there was a high chance that he would be disliked by the driver if he just went there to take a carriage.
So he spent some money at a roadside vendor, bought some water, and cleaned the mud off his feet.
"Tons, tons, tons..."
A coachman picked up his kettle and drank several sips of water. Suddenly he saw a man coming to him, and he immediately put down his kettle.
"Sir, do you want to take a carriage?"
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead nodded, then he got into the carriage and gave the coachman an address.
"drive."
The driver shook the reins and steered the carriage to its destination.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead came to the city. He did not immediately go back to the inn to have a good rest. Instead, he chose to go to the place where the task was submitted to get the reward.
Previously, many people were trapped at home because of the rain. Now that the rain has stopped, panicked passers-by came out of their homes one after another, which also led to a large number of pedestrians on the road.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was sitting in the carriage, looking at the busy traffic on the street, and he was in a very good mood.
Before, I was alone in the cave and felt very lonely.
Now I see so many passers-by. Although I don’t chat with them, it’s nice to listen to their chat.
There are just too many people in some places, causing the carriage to be unable to move forward and stuck on the road. If this can be improved, it would be perfect.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the lively street scene outside the window with a smile on his face. Ten minutes later, the carriage stopped on the side of the road.
"Sir, we've arrived."
After the carriage stopped, the coachman shouted to the guests in the carriage.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead got out of the car, explained the situation to the driver, and then quickly walked to the place where the task was submitted in the distance.
The coachman did not leave, but waited patiently on the roadside for the guests to return.
Now it was time to have lunch, and I was a little hungry. The driver took out a package, opened it, picked up a piece of big cake, and ate it.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead submitted the mission items and received a reward.
Weighing the heavy bag of money, I mentally estimated how much money was still missing.
"You can collect the money by doing one more mission. I'll take a break first and find some time to complete the last mission."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was thinking about buying a spiritual weapon after collecting the money, and walked quickly to the place where the carriage was parked.
He came to the carriage and saw the coachman eating a big cake. After getting in the carriage, he said to the coachman who was hurriedly packing his things.
"Master, you don't have to worry, you can eat the pie first before setting off."
…………
At noon, the inn was a little deserted. When it rained a few days ago, the waiter in the inn was very busy.
Suddenly free, the waiter had nothing to do and yawned out of boredom.
At this time, a familiar figure walked into the store. The waiter was quite surprised when he saw it, and then hurriedly greeted him.
"Sir, you are back."
"Um."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead nodded to the waiter, and then ordered the waiter to prepare food for him.
"Wait a moment, I'll go and serve you food."
"By the way, prepare some hot water for me, I want to take a bath."
"Okay."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead walked toward the guest room. When he came to the room, he immediately lay down on the bed.
When I was trapped in a cave before, I always slept on the ground. The ground was hard and not comfortable at all.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, was lying on the bed and immediately started to feel sleepy, wanting to take a nap.
At this time, there was a knock on the door of the guest room, and it was the waiter who brought the dishes.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood up and responded to the waiter outside the door.
Within a few minutes, the table was filled with delicious dishes.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was eating vegetables and drinking wine with a contented expression on his face.
This time he ordered a bottle of wine for lunch so that he could sleep more comfortably when he went to bed later.
After finishing the dishes on the table like a storm, the next step was to take a shower.
I haven't taken a shower for several days and my body smells a little bit.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead changed out of his dirty clothes and jumped into the bathtub.
The warm hot water soaked his whole body, causing the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead to make a pleasant sound.
The waiter came to the guest room again, this time with a plate of fruit in his hand.
Then he replaced the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead, and put away the dirty clothes, ready to be washed.
"Don't leave yet." The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead saw the waiter holding the dirty clothes and was about to leave, and immediately shouted to him to stop him.
"What do you want, sir?" The waiter stopped and looked at the guest in confusion.
"Did anything big happen during the past few days when I was away?" asked the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
I have not been in the city for the past few days and have no idea about some things happening in the city. Now it is more convenient to ask the waiter about some things in the city.
Afterwards, the waiter told everything he knew.
After listening to the waiter's story, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead nodded and asked, "Isn't there anything about the rebels?"
"No." The waiter indeed had no information about the rebels.
"Is that so?" The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stopped asking.
The waiter turned around and left, and the guest room suddenly became quiet.
After taking a shower, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead went to the window, opened it, and looked outside.
There are still many people on the street, and the small vendors along the street are doing very good business.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood in front of the window and observed several soldiers in the distance.
Seeing that they were still standing guard as before and did nothing else, they withdrew their gaze and returned to the bed to lie down and rest.
The days spent sleeping rough outside the city could not be compared with the life inside the city. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead lay on the bed and fell asleep within a few seconds.
"call……"
There was a snoring sound in the quiet guest room. It could be seen from this that the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was very tired, otherwise he would not snore so loudly.
…………
Two figures were running fast on the field. Previously, their speed was delayed because of the muddy ground.
As they left the muddy area, the running speed of the two investigators suddenly accelerated.
The tall investigator suddenly stopped, and his companion also stopped and asked.
"Why did it stop suddenly?"
"Don't you feel the ground shaking?"
When the short investigator heard what his companion said, he immediately felt something abnormal on the ground.
The two people stood there, feeling the ground shaking and the trees not far away shaking.
At this time, the weather was calm, and the trees were swaying when there was no wind. This situation must have been caused by some external force.
"There seems to be something in that direction." The tall investigator raised his hand and pointed to the left.
"I'll go up the tree and take a look." The short investigator said as he quickly ran towards a tree not far away.
As light as a swallow, he easily climbed to the top of the tree and looked into the distance.
A few kilometers away, a large black figure appeared.
"Did you see anything?" the tall investigator shouted.
"It's a group of alien beasts." The short investigator responded with a serious look.
After he jumped down from the tree, the two investigators moved decisively away from the group of alien beasts.
Within a few minutes, a group of alien beasts appeared not far from the two investigators.
If these two people hadn't reacted quickly enough, they would have met these strange beasts head-on, and a big battle would have been inevitable.
Although two investigators are much stronger than a single alien beast, they would still have a headache if faced with the siege of countless alien beasts.
Once their spiritual energy and physical strength are exhausted, these two investigators will surely die at the hands of the alien beasts.
"The number of this group of alien beasts is really large, at least a thousand alien beasts!" the tall investigator exclaimed.
"There must be more than a thousand." The short investigator responded.
"These strange beasts seem to be in a hurry. Are they going to do something?"
"I don't know about this. Why, do you still want to investigate?"
"That's not true. Now I just want to go back to the base camp."
"Okay, let's hurry up and get on our way."
The two investigators watched the group of strange beasts and chatted for a while. While chatting, they recovered some strength and then set off again.
