After dinner, everyone gathered together and began to discuss what to do next. Takumi wanted to solicit everyone's opinions and speak freely.
Now it's time for them to make a choice. They can go back to the village, take out the loot and leave. Although the harvest is small, the advantage is safety. With the royal family Xiaoji escorting them, the danger from the ocean will be minimized. They are sure to win in winter.
Back to Scandinavia.
Too much time has passed. If they don't return now, they may have to spend this year in the desert.
Takumi's own opinion is to continue moving forward, continue to raid small villages in the desert, and wait until next spring to return with the loot. But this will undoubtedly increase the threat. There are only a dozen of them, and they are not familiar with the place in the desert. What if
When encountering a regular army, the possibility of the entire army being annihilated is very high.
The third option was proposed by Xiaobai. Explore the city, leave before it gets cold, and come back next year. This is a compromise.
Among all the sailors, the one who supports Xiaobai the most is Hei Jiaoya. Although he cannot understand the language in the desert, his eyes are not just for show. Today he walked through the streets and opened his eyes to many differences.
There were many things that surprised him. If he could stay a little longer, he would be sure to have a deeper understanding of the desert.
Everyone had their own ideas, and there was a lot of discussion. Some people wanted to go back, and some supported Takumi. However, there were very few people who supported Xiaobai and Hei Jiaoya. They were very realistic. Xiaobai and Hei Jiaoya's words made them disagree.
They have no interest in understanding the city.
"What are you arguing about?" Kaihai, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his head and said, "Do you think Xiaojie will listen to you? Without Xiaobai, would Xiaojie take you away?"
For a moment... it was quiet...
Damn, you forgot about this!
The sailors looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes. They felt that what they said made sense and there was no way to refute it.
During the days when they were at sea with Xiaojie, they were already familiar with each other and knew Xiaobai's position in Xiaojie's heart. They could only be regarded as foils.
Indeed, with the royal family Xiaoji here, they can go back smoothly and don't have to worry about anything. But the problem is that if Xiaobai is not there, Xiaoji will not leave at all!
Can they still sail back to their hometown for a few months on that Scandinavian warship that is about to fall apart?
What a joke, the ship will disintegrate on its own within a short time, and none of them will be able to survive by then.
Takumi looked at Kaihai speechlessly, as if giving him a slap in the face. Why didn't he talk about such an important thing earlier? He had to wait until everyone was about to quarrel before talking about it. He was so naughty.
The sailors suddenly realized another point, that is, Takumi is no longer critical. He is no longer a captain in name only, because the Scandinavian warship can no longer sail, and now all their hopes fall on Xiaobai.
Listening to Takumi is not as good as listening to Xiaobai. After all, the person who can take them home has changed from Takumi to Xiaobai.
"..."
The sailors turned to look at Xiaobai and were speechless for a long time. He actually gained the real command power silently. It was really amazing.
Xiaobai showed a playful smile and spread his palms. You continued to argue, but I just watched and said nothing. I didn't even think about who was the boss?
"Hey, hey hey, hey hey hey..." Hei Jiao Ya smiled lightly at first, his voice gradually got louder, and finally he laughed wildly. He felt it was so interesting.
He had already discovered the matter of power transfer, but he never mentioned it. He was silently thinking about Xiaobai getting closer, but the sailors didn't understand, and still went their own way, thinking that they would suffer a loss.
Takumi didn't care. Although Xiaobai had taken over the power, he wouldn't worry about anything. After all, his relationship with Xiaobai was not bad.
The only ones who are really embarrassed are these sailors.
"Xiaobai, what is your decision?" Takumi knew that only he could ask.
"Explore the city, scout the caravan, and prepare to go home." Xiaobai said to Takumi with a smile.
"I know how to detect cities, why do we still need to detect caravans?" Takumi asked in confusion.
"Hehe, of course it's for plunder, Takumi, what Xiaobai means is that we won't rob the tribe, but the caravan instead!" Hei Jiaoya reacted very quickly, and instantly understood what Xiaobai meant, and asked Takumi
explained.
Rob a caravan?
The sailors looked at each other, their eyes gradually brightening.
This is really a good idea, and you can get a lot of loot.
"Ten days, fifteen days at most, and then we will leave." Xiaobai clenched his fists and said to the sailors. He asked Takumi about the time of winter. After a while, the weather will get colder, and it will be difficult to go to sea again.
It's easy. Although it's better on the desert side, it's very troublesome on the Scandinavian side.
Xiaobai has set the tone, and everyone must consciously abide by it. After all... He has a good relationship with Xiaoji, and he can't be offended.
After resting for a night behind the sand dunes, after getting up the next day, everyone went their own way, looking for something they could do.
Xiaobai followed the crowd and entered the city again. This time he didn't have any money at all. He just "borrowed" a little while crowding around, emmmm... This is not a good thing.
Techniques, good kids shouldn’t imitate them. Xiaobai’s techniques are mainly used to touch bird eggs.
After gathering the gold coins and metal coins in several bags and putting them into his arms, Xiaobai became more courageous. This is called Qian Zhuang's heroic courage.
I am such a powerful true god who was forced to "borrow money". I guess I am the only god in the world who has suffered so miserably. When he walked into the city, Xiaobai turned to look at the crowded crowd and laughed at himself.
He shook his head and pulled his hood down, feeling afraid of being recognized.
Through conversations among pedestrians, Xiaobai learned the name of this city, called Cambolt.
While collecting information, Xiaobai came across a stone tablet, which recorded some events in Cambolt City.
The name Cambolt comes from the owners of the city, the Cambolt family. They were originally a small family with a low status. Later, they became prosperous in business and were grateful to the gods, so they spent a lot of money to build this city.
There are a lot of compliments written on the stone tablet to the gods and the Cambolt family, but most of them are nonsense and basically of no use. Xiaobai doesn't believe anything on it.
In addition to the name of the city Cambolt, he also learned another fact, that is, this city is also a city of slaves and gladiatorial games, full of blood and cruelty, and the history of the Cambolt family also exudes
Stinky, they didn't make their fortune through serious trade, but through the slave trade and gambling money from gladiatorial battles, they established this city. (To be continued)
