Following the shouts of the team leader, the merchants ended their transactions in Fanlin Town, put away their stalls, and put the bridles on the cattle and horses.
The guys climbed onto the cart, shouted loudly, and drove the cart slowly out of the town.
For the caravan, this scene has been experienced so many times that it is as orderly as a machine.
Renn followed the caravan on a celestial horse, and Angelica rode a pony beside Renn.
Just before departure, Ren asked Angelica and found out that she had not purchased a horse for transportation, so he hurriedly took her to the only mule and horse shop in the town.
Miss Ranger looked at the expensive price, and after Ren's persuasion, she finally frowned and chose the cheapest pony, which only cost 30 Golden Eagle coins.
In fact, the girl originally didn't want to spend this small amount of money.
In her mind, riding with the paladin is the cheapest and most romantic way, but...
This guy in front of me doesn’t understand amorous feelings at all!
Ren shook his head and suppressed the laughter in his heart.
The expression on the guard captain Delit's face was not relaxed. He had been informed of Sodik's words just now. Even though he had experienced many storms and waves, his heart was still heavy.
However, when she turned her head and looked back, seeing Fanlin Town getting smaller and smaller in her field of vision, a trace of melancholy arose in her heart.
"Hello, Mr. Sodik."
They have strayed far away from civilized society and truly entered the dangerous and bloody wilderness!
We are now less than five kilometers away from Fanlin Town. How dare these wilderness creatures stroke human beings at such a close distance!
"Little girl, we haven't left Fanlin Town yet, so it's unlikely that we'll encounter those dirty guys on the road, but we might be able to get there if we go a little further."
The waterproof tents of Ren and Angelica were set up outside the carriage. They were not members of the caravan and were not qualified to receive maximum protection.
Sodik's expression turned slightly serious.
"Then it's better to obey orders than to be respectful. As for halfling delicacies, my ears are almost raw from hearing about them, but I just don't have the chance to taste them myself."
The girl's melancholy goes away just as quickly as it comes.
…………
"Sodic, if you say that, then everyone in the caravan must be more vigilant. The number of people on duty will be doubled tonight!"
"parking!"
At the same time, the caravan guards gradually became serious.
Renn nodded to the halfling and added:
The halfling stood on the roof of the cart and shouted.
While the two were talking, the caravan had already begun to set up camp in an orderly manner.
"Look at the road under your feet. It's quite smooth. It means that Fanlin Town can repair it, which means that Fanlin Town's militiamen can come here. Wild creatures like jackals are used to bullying the weak and fearing the tough, and they usually face tough situations.
I won’t even chew it.”
"Don't worry, I, Sodik, will cook the food myself and I won't let you two down."
snort!
Thinking of this, Miss Youxia felt a little resentful in her heart.
Renn didn't have anything to say about this, he just silently packed the things needed for camping and laid out the blanket for sleeping at night.
The halfling strongly agreed with Ren's analysis and at the same time took a high look at the paladin who was born in this small town.
The reason why he is so familiar with the wilderness is because in his last life as a player, in order to earn the first pot of gold, he and his companions robbed caravans traveling in the wilderness countless times!
However, at that time, he was still a loser warrior and had nothing to do with the paladin.
Well, he was too short to hit the paladin on the shoulder, so he had to hit the thigh instead.
"We will walk here today, everyone will set up camp and rest, and we will continue setting off tomorrow!"
"I guess after dinner, the caravan guards will start to get busy."
"Ren, will we encounter wild creatures like gnolls?"
She didn't know when she could return here again and how she would return here.
The cooks, led by Sodik, fetched water and lit a fire to prepare dinner.
As time went by, her attention was gradually attracted by the wilderness and sparse trees on both sides of the road.
"However, from your tone, Ren, it seems that you have an extraordinary understanding of how to make a living in the wilderness?"
"These are all things my father told me piecemeal before he passed away. He once left Fanlin Town alone and traveled. Unfortunately, when he came back, he had already..."
Even if you look around, you can hardly see any trace of civilized villages.
While setting up the cordon, the caravan guards began to arrange night watchmen.
As we got closer and closer to the mountain col that the halflings were looking for, the width of the road narrowed sharply, and the trees on both sides of the road also changed from sparse to dense, and one or two long and shrill howls of wolves could even be heard from the distance.
The businessman said in a serious tone.
Angelica drove the pony to Ren's side and asked in a low voice.
Even if human civilization has taken the lead, even if magic technology has gradually emerged, and even if there are countless professionals in the intelligent race, they can only control an area of 50 kilometers around the city. If it is further away, it is not powerless, but the cost is too high.
The gain outweighs the loss.
In the wilderness, the wild atmosphere made her feel novel.
"Well, you tell everyone to be careful when sleeping at night and not to take off their clothes in case of emergency. After dinner, I will ask Captain Delit to take the rangers and thieves to explore the front
situation."
Sodik smiled and made the invitation.
Not everyone has this insight!
"After passing the mountain col ahead, the caravan will stop for a while and prepare dinner. Do you two want to try halfling delicacies?"
No one in the caravan dared to underestimate the intuition of this little leader. On several occasions, it was because of his intuition that the caravan avoided the possibility of large-scale casualties.
Hearing Ren praise his race's delicacies, Sodik was obviously in a very happy mood.
Renn laughed and said.
Facing the halfling's temptation, Ren waved his hand, his face slightly sad.
When Sodik got off the carriage, a weathered businessman walked up to him and asked in a low voice:
"Lord Sodik, it's still early for the sun to set, why don't you keep moving forward?"
The leader of the caravan, Sodik, rode a large military dog to the two of them and explained to Angelica with a smile.
This is still a big city. For a small village like Fanlin Town, it is already very good if it can control the surrounding area of ten to fifteen kilometers.
"My premonition tells me that as I move forward, something bad will happen."
The guys unloaded the cart from the cows and horses, formed a simple circle, and drove the cows and horses to another place to set up.
As soon as these words came out, the businessman's expression suddenly changed.
This is the place where she was born and raised.
Fortunately, the entire caravan passed through the approximately one-mile-long mountain pass without any danger.
Before Ren could speak, a burst of hearty laughter came from the distance.
They spontaneously divided into three teams, one team was responsible for protecting the caravan, one team scouted the surroundings, and one team explored the road conditions ahead.
He has never seen his father!
"It's okay, it's all over."
"Oh, I'm sorry, my friend, for reminding you of sad past events."
The halfling reached out and patted Ren's thigh, with a hint of apology in his tone.
Time passed little by little.
Soon, the chefs prepared the food.
At this time, Sodik came outside Ren's tent and extended an invitation with a smile.
"Young paladin, would you like to try the delicious mushroom soup produced by the halfling?"
