Chapter 104: Three Horse Thieves

"Guest, are you sure you will sell all other gemstone pearls except this purple pearl?" The shopkeeper confirmed again.

Werther nodded firmly: "Of course."

"Okay, guest." The shopkeeper smiled and put all the jewelry that Werther brought in his box, leaving only the purple pearl. He respectfully handed the bag containing the purple pearl to Werther, "You take it

Okay, I'll go get the gold coins for you now."

Soon, the shopkeeper brought a bag of gold coins and introduced to Werther: "Your two rubies are worth twelve gold coins respectively, your two emeralds are ten gold coins, and these five sapphires and six topaz are all worth it."

It's ten gold coins, these colored pearls are eight gold coins each, and the white pearls are six gold coins each. A total of two hundred and twenty-four gold coins."

"But." Witte frowned, "You said before that each one would cost ten gold coins. I thought these could be sold for two hundred and fifty gold coins."

"Guest, I just mentioned the approximate price at the beginning. The price of each piece of jewelry is different, and my price is already very fair." The shop owner smiled and rubbed his hands and said, "To be honest, the reason why I gave you this

The price depends on the size of your jewelry."

At this time, the parchment reminded: "Successfully sold part of the jewelry and earned two hundred and twenty-four gold coins."

Werther thought to himself, since the parchment said so, it means that the shopkeeper's price is quite fair, otherwise it would be like this.

He took a bag of gold coins given by the shopkeeper and handed it to Wile. Wile put the bag of gold coins and purple pearls in his clothes.

Witte asked the shopkeeper again: "If it is of similar quality to this emerald but is as big as an egg, how much can it be sold for?"

The shop owner opened his eyes wide in surprise: "There is such a treasure. If there really is an emerald as big as an egg and of good color, it is estimated to be sold for more than eighty gold coins. If it is auctioned as a valuable collection, it can be sold.

The higher price is about a few hundred gold coins. If this big gem happens to have a story, it may be sold for thousands of gold coins."

After hearing the shopkeeper's analysis, Werther was extremely surprised. It turned out that the diamond was so valuable. In this case, he couldn't sell it, so it was better to keep it.

"Dear guest." The shopkeeper looked at Werther with a smile, "I am very curious, who are you, a viscount? Or a count?"

"I'm just a young man from a rich family. I happened to get some jewelry. Now I need money, so I sold some of it." Witte said, but he did not tell the other party his true identity.

"Oh, that's it. If you still need to sell jewelry, come to my store as much as possible. I welcome you at any time."

"Can consider it."

"Guest, would you like to take a look at the jewelry and furnishings here? If there is anything you like, maybe you can buy one and I will give you a discount."

"No, thank you for your kindness, we still need to go back early."

Werther said, then he and Wile stood up and walked outside.

"Guest, move slowly."

The two of them walked to the tree where the horses were tied before, and found that both horses were missing!

"Wyle, our horse has been stolen!" Werther said in surprise.

"What should we do, Your Highness?" Wile grabbed Werther's arm with a very panicked expression, "How should we go back!"

"Now it's not a matter of how to get back. It's important to find the horses first. Those two horses are both well-bred horses. They were hard to come by. We must find them back!"

"Yes, Your Highness. But..." Wile scratched his head, "We don't know which direction to pursue!"

Werther looked around and found that there were many shops nearby. However, they asked all the nearby shopkeepers and no one saw which direction the horse was running.

"It looks like I'm going to use my superpower eyes to look for traces of the horse. I hope no one will see me. I have my back to a crowded place, so Wiler, you stand in front of me."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Werther tried his best to use his superpower eyes inconspicuously. After searching for a few minutes, he finally saw the two horses of the castle beside the woods two kilometers away.

"I found it, go north." Witte whispered, "But we can find a place where no one is paying attention, and I will use magic to take you there."

"Okay, Your Highness, but there are people around here. Where is the place with few people?"

"I saw that the people who stole our horses were resting. They won't be leaving soon. We can look carefully to see if there is any place nearby that can shield us, like a well."

The two searched nearby, walking almost half a street, and finally found a dry well behind a shop. There was no one around, so Vette pulled Wile and hid behind the well. After gathering strength, he took the two to the area.

Inside the woods.

As soon as they landed, they landed on a place where a group of vultures were resting. They scared the vultures so much that they flew up. The vultures thought they had occupied their territory and attacked them viciously.

Following the falling down, Werther and the others ran as hard as they could. They ran in the woods for an unknown amount of time before they finally got rid of the vulture's entanglement.

By chance, they ran near the horse-stealers and saw them happily toasting in celebration.

One of the men wearing a green hat and green shirt said: "These horses are all purebred horses. Each one can be sold for more than ten gold coins. We can make a lot of money now."

The other two thieves laughed at him: "You have no foresight. We should steal more horses like this and breed them ourselves, so that we can make money continuously."

The green thief rolled his eyes at them: "But how long will it take for us to reproduce? You can wait, but I can't wait that long."

"That makes sense. Why don't we sell them now? The money we make will be enough for us to spend a while."

"Wait a minute, this is a forest. We can dig some fruits and eat them on the road."

"good suggestion."

A few of them left their two horses and began to look for fruits deep in the woods. When Werther and Wile saw them walking in their direction, they immediately ran away. Although most of the trees in the woods are now bare, there are many trees and they can

Covering the two of Werther.

Werther and Wile deliberately took a different path from the horse thieves, perfectly staggering with them. By the time the three of them continued walking deeper into the woods, Werther and Wile had already reached the two horses.

"Oh my god, how could there be such stupid thieves?" Wile exclaimed, "They are thieves themselves, aren't they afraid that the stolen horses will be taken away by others?"

"That's just right. We can bring the horse back without much effort."

They were untying the rope tied to the tree trunk and holding the horse. When the horse saw them, it rubbed its head against them affectionately. At this time, they suddenly heard a curse in the distance.

Wile turned his head and looked into the distance and said, "Your Highness, it seems that those thieves are talking. I don't know what they are doing."

Werther listened carefully and seemed to hear them shouting loudly: "It's sour and astringent, what is this!"

Then they heard the sound of stepping on dry leaves and soil, and it was the three men walking over.

Werther and Wile quickly took the horse away. Wile wanted to take the horse to the road outside the woods, but Werther took his horse and walked deeper into the woods.

"Hey, Your Highness, shouldn't we go back quickly?" Wile whispered from behind, "What if they find out? I know your force value is very high, but what if they attack you with a dagger?"

…”

"It doesn't matter. Let's go around in a circle and stagger their path as before. I'm mainly curious about what they discovered just now." Werther led the horse and kept walking step by step.

"Well, Your Highness, I'll go with you to take a look." Wile said helplessly, "Your Highness is too curious."

"Shh~" Werther raised his index finger in front of his mouth, "lower your voice."

Once again, they missed the three thieves perfectly. The three thieves returned to the place where they had tied their horses, and they were all surprised.

The thief in the green shirt shouted: "Oh my god, where is our horse? We just stole it after looking for it for a whole day!"

The thief in yellow clothes was a little confused: "Are we looking for the right place? Could it be here?"

The thief in green said: "This is right here. There is also a mark I made on this tree, a sunflower painted with dog shit."

The thief in yellow slapped the thief in green on the cuckold: "Are you an idiot for using dog excrement to draw? Can't you use bird excrement!"

"Shut up, you two are idiots!" the thief in blue said angrily, "There was clearly ready-made horse dung just now, but you went out of your way to find dog excrement and bird excrement. You two are really stupid!"

"Then what should we do now?" The green-clothed thief anxiously held the blue-clothed thief's arm, "It's so hard to steal a well-bred horse!"

The thief in blue thought for a while and said: "I have a hunch that the two horses bit off the ropes by themselves and ran towards the crowded town. Let's chase them quickly!"

After saying that, the three thieves ran towards the town.

Werther and Wile heard their words not far away and broke into a cold sweat helplessly.

"Oh my God, there are such stupid thieves. I really pity them." Wile said.

"Hey, you can obviously use mud to draw marks, why do you have to use animal excrement..." Werther was also very surprised, "I wonder what will happen to them in the future."

Unknowingly, they also came to the place where the three thieves were picking fruits.

I saw a big tree here, full of orange fruits. These fruits are about the same size as peaches and look similar to peaches, except for the different colors. They exude an attractive aroma and look good.

The way you eat.

"They said these fruits were very sour just now. Should we try them, Wile?" Werther suggested.

"Forget it, Your Highness, I don't want to try it, what if it's poisonous." Wile spread his hands and shook his head.

"That's right. Why don't you pick a few and let Ivan study them." Werther's eyes were still full of curiosity.

At this time, the voice of the parchment sounded in his ears: "I discovered the magic energy fruit. Eating this fruit can increase the magic energy, reduce the charging time, and allow you to use magic more easily. However, the effect of one fruit is not obvious.

, it needs to be consumed regularly to achieve the desired effect.”
