Rena knew about their plan, but she felt that the other party was hiding something. She was sure that things would never be as easy as they said.
And what they want Reina to do is to protect these ordinary people. They are defenseless. If the evil spirits are not controlled and rush towards the crowd, things will become troublesome. For
The four of them have their own division of labor and have no time to take care of these people, so they hope Reina can help them.
Reina tentatively agreed. After all, she couldn't find a way to enter the Karasumori Empire for the time being, so she had nothing to lose by cooperating with them.
The bear hunter's name was Red. He came back with a few snow rabbits at noon. Although this was obviously not enough for the dozens of people in the camp, it was still much better than nothing. From Red's mouth, I learned that
A silent man named Roha was once a soldier of the Kalis Empire. After the fall of the Kalis Empire, no one knew why he appeared here. And Red and others were all escorts following the caravan and were placed on the payroll.
Where are their people? After Reina asked this question, Red smiled and changed the topic.
What worries Reina even more is that for some reason, Bai Ling is suspiciously calm today. Although he keeps a close eye on her and doesn't let her move around, she obediently stays by her side and eats lunch.
He didn't grab any other food at all, which is really doubtful.
She seemed to have something on her mind, sitting quietly aside, her eyes looking in a certain direction from time to time.
For this reason, in order to avoid accidents, Reina did not move much. She stayed in the camp and looked after these ordinary people as the four people said. The four of them still went out to the triangle entrance to observe the situation.
I thought I would wait until night in boredom, but unexpectedly, after the four people were gone, those businessmen started to discuss. They asked where Reina was from. They really believed that Reina and Bai Ling were sisters, so they started talking.
Their own stories.
Among them was a middle-aged man in his forties. He kindly gave two gifts to Reina and Li Na. They were some kind of rouge boxes. Reina had never used these things, but Bai Ling ate them.
Then he told his own experience. He was born in a poor place and lived a life of not having enough to eat since he was a child. When he was laughing, he began to find ways to escape from such a life. By various coincidences, he followed a group of people.
The big caravan had no salary at first and was very tired every day. He often missed his old life.
"That period was the most difficult. The double blow of ideals and reality was unbearable, but I was fortunate that I persevered. The arduous caravan journey in those years taught me many valuable things, and my
My efforts were not in vain. I saved enough money to buy a dilapidated carriage and an old horse, and started my second life."
He talked a lot, and Rena didn't hate hearing stories. She quite liked hearing about other people's life experiences, even if they weren't necessarily true.
The other person hadn't shaved for a long time, and his two whiskers were flying in both directions like the whiskers of a catfish. And because of his long journey, his face looked very vicissitudes. Rena didn't know if she would become like this in the future. Maybe she
Time to try that box of rouge powder.
"I have made a lot of money along the way, experienced setbacks, and even lost everything. But I survived every time because I know that these difficulties are nothing compared to the life I had when I was a child. I
I just need to start over and work harder, and life will get better. What I'm afraid of is not losing, but rather, being like the people in my hometown who are busy day after day, and no matter how hard they try to survive, they can't change.
With the current situation, what's the point of this kind of effort? This kind of life is what I fear most, what do you think, little girl?"
Reina nodded in agreement with what he meant.
"This time I lost everything again. I was supposed to make a lot of money, buy a small shop in a city, and do some small business. If I am lucky, I will marry a local woman. I don't ask for much.
, as long as she takes care of the house. But, God is not as good as man. I am trapped here. Not only did I not make a penny, but I lost everything I had. Even my horse was eaten because of insufficient food.
Lost it."
His expression changed into sadness as he spoke, and he sighed.
"But people all over the world are terrible, aren't they? At least I'm luckier than those who died. I'm still alive, and there's still hope. If I can enter the Wusen Empire, I've been there. There's a trading city there, and there's magic.
This sounds so crazy, trading with demons, can you believe it? Only crazy people would do this. But for the sake of money, I had to take risks, and I found that it was easier to deal with those demons than with humans.
There are many, there are no intrigues, they are very direct, business is business, and they will not do anything crooked. They are obviously outsiders in doing business, and the prices are almost all under our control."
He smiled bitterly.
"In my opinion, we businessmen are the real 'demons'. I feel ashamed of the behavior of some of us, and I understand why they closed the door. I really want to go too far, hey, you
It must be a difficult journey with your sister."
"fine."
Reina replied calmly.
The latter obviously didn't believe it and said: "Hey, life is like this, with ups and downs, but in the end we will definitely live peacefully somewhere. Before that, we may keep traveling and think in despair that we
Life is like this. If their plan succeeds, we can start a new life when we enter the Wusen Empire. There are also many human compatriots there. They can live well, and so can we. Maybe it will be easier than before."
He said with a smile, his eyes full of hope, and his optimistic attitude even affected Reina.
She has been under tremendous pressure, the growing army of evil spirits, and the unbeatable Rockfield. Her road ahead is full of challenges and dangers. She has always felt out of breath, but now she listens to the other party
After her words, she felt something in her heart.
Looking back on the past, when she lost her mother and became an orphan, she would have died alone in hunger and pain, but she was lucky enough to meet a master who took her out of the world. Now she is not the duckweed on the sea that she once was.
As an orphan, she found her tribe and developed her skills. Moreover, she did not fight alone. All living people in the world were her allies.
Reina sighed softly, her face softened a lot, and she said: "You are right, we will definitely start a new life."
After seeing that the tense face of this foreign girl relaxed a lot, the businessman nodded.
"It will definitely happen, it will definitely happen."
