Chapter 557: [Do You Understand?] 】


Chapter 557: Do you understand?

Lan Lan hid in the warehouse for a day and a night.

Although the soldiers of the internal guards who boarded the ship during the period did not enter the cargo hold to inspect it, this did not make Lan Lan take it lightly.

She knew very well what a difficult and powerful guy that man named Gu Le was She didn't even dare to let herself fall asleep.

Of course, with that almost purgatory-like experience on the Abandoned Continent, a day and a night of sleepless rest was nothing to Lan Lan.

Even if there is no powerful figure around him now, Lan Lan's heart has already been tempered as tough as iron.

She is like a beast that has spent the winter, carefully lying in the female, carefully hiding herself.

It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that she finally experienced a crisis.

On the afternoon of the second day of the voyage, the door to the cargo compartment was opened.

Voices of conversation came from outside early on.

The officer, named Boggins, seemed to be deliberately precautionary, speaking loudly outside the hold, as if he was negotiating something with the internal guards.

He didn't try to prevent the guards from entering the warehouse, but he deliberately spoke loudly to warn Lan Lan inside, and Burgins, as the officer in charge of escorting the supplies, symbolically stopped him and gave up his efforts.

After all, the name of the internal guard was far from something that a transport officer like him who had been temporarily recruited from the local garrison could contend with.

When the cargo door was opened, Lan Lan had carefully hidden her body in a wooden barrel, and she carefully pressed the lid of the wooden barrel and hid inside.

"Gentlemen, you'd better be careful, the soldiers on the front line are counting on this grain to survive the winter."

Burgins grumbled with some dissatisfaction.

One of the officers of the internal guard laughed disdainfully, and then said: "Well, who doesn't know the tricks of you logistics quartermasters."

I said, don't pretend anymore, hurry up and come up with something good.

I've heard that you always hide some good stuff.

In such a cold weather, you always have to drink two sips of wine to warm up. ” Boggins seemed a little embarrassed: "Where is the wine."

This trip is to the front line, and drinking alcohol during the march can violate military rules, my lord, don't be joking. ” "Just kidding" The internal guard officer sneered and sniffed his nose deliberately: "Okay, if I find it in a while, don't pretend to be stupid." ” Soon.

A few of the guards scattered and looked around for supplies in the hold, where they opened several boxes and some bundled bags.

Someone even opened two wooden barrels of tung oil, an act that made Boggins' heart almost jump out.

He didn't know that Lan Lan was very smart and didn't hide in the corner.

She chose to hide in an empty cask closest to the cargo door.

This choice just fits a blind spot in the psychology of ordinary people: if normal people want to search a room, most people will subconsciously search the deepest part of it.

And the most conspicuous place near the door is not easy to inspect.

Moreover, Lan Lan chose the closest place to the door, and there was another purpose: in case he was exposed.

Then the closer you are to the door, the easier it will be to escape.

When the time comes, it's relatively simple to rush out.

If it is hidden in the innermost corner of the cabin, if it is searched, it will be blocked in the innermost corner of the cabin.

That's when I really want to run, I can't run.

Sure enough, the soldiers searched deeper and deeper into the cabin, but it was that Perkins who was so frightened that his face turned pale but fortunately it was dark in the cabin.

The guards didn't see it.

Seeing that the soldiers with internal guards had already picked up knives and wanted to continue to pry open the tung oil barrels, Boggins finally couldn't bear it anymore and said loudly: "Okay, okay, enough for everyone" He hurriedly stepped forward and took a few steps.

Stopped in front of a pile of tung oil barrels, opened his arms, and said with a wry smile: "I said, it's okay, everyone."

The internal security officer smiled: "If it weren't for you being so stingy, why would we bother to rummage over things I said Boggins, take out good things." ” "This" Boggins rolled his eyes, "Okay, I'll admit it, this brother, I hid two bottles of good wine in my room, and the rest is really gone, I can swear to the goddess." ” "Just say no."

The internal guard officer smiled, but as if he was still not satisfied, he waved his hand: "The wine is there, but the appetizers are not enough, I heard that there are some good jerky in this batch of goods, come on, go get some out, cook it, and you can make do with it in front of you." ” Seeing that those internal guard soldiers were going to go in and rummage things, Boggins finally couldn't hold back his anger and said loudly: "It's a felony for adults to use military rations privately."

"We didn't move, we just ate those things ourselves, and you should be too careful how much you can eat."

The internal guard officer looked at Boggins coldly.

"Me" As if he was about to say something, the sound of ancient music came from outside the cabin.

"What's wrong?"

The guards immediately turned away.

At the door of the cabin, Gu Le wore a fox fur cloak and stood there, with a pale face, frowning into the cabin.

The internal guard officer shrank his head, walked over to salute, and laughed in a low voice: "My lord, the brothers can't stand the cold, and they want to get something to eat This Boggins is very stingy, and he hides his own wine and refuses to take it out."

We don't rob him, we just pay.

Besides, we are also soldiers, so what's wrong with eating some military rations. ” Speaking of this, he lowered his voice and said in a low voice: "You also said that this trip to the northwest, the execution of the characters is dead, and it is not good to treat the brothers, everyone is carrying their heads to follow you to do things."

We're just trying to get some jerky to fill our stomachs. ” "Nonsense.

Whatever it looks like, go out" Gu Le seemed to smile, casually reprimanded his subordinates, glanced at Perkins, and said lightly: "Okay, my subordinates have no rules, so you can see and laugh." ” Where did Boggins dare to say anything, just lowered his head and laughed.

The soldiers of the internal guard did not dare to make another attempt, and left the cabin one after another and walked out.

Gule waited for Boggins to come to him.

Suddenly sighed: "Mr.

Boggins." ” "What do you command?"

Gu Le looked Perkins up and down, and suddenly smiled: "You seem to be a little nervous" Boggins shook his body.

"You seem to be very afraid that my people will turn over the things here" Gu Le narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "I don't know about those things in the army's logistics.

It is not surprising that while transporting military supplies, it is not surprising to transport some private goods for profit. “ As he spoke, Gu Le suddenly reached out and patted Boggins on the shoulder, and this time, Boggins almost didn't stand firm.

I almost softened, but I gritted my back molars and barely stood up so I didn't fall down.

"It's all in the army, it's hard work in the army, everyone makes a little money, I just ask about these things."

Gu Le smiled pleasantly, but a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "These people under me are used to being wild, and this time we will go out."

It's a matter of playing with their lives, they are all serving the country, but I'm afraid that this time I will go to the northwest, and I don't know how many will come back alive.

I don't want to criticize them too much.

Boggins.

I ask you to do me a favor, I don't know."

"Your Excellency, you may command."

Boggins' voice trembled a little.

"Get them some food and drink.

I heard what you said just now, you hid some wine, don't you take it out?

I'll pay you.

Well, there are still good things on the ship, you can also watch and get some out, you can't let my brothers go hungry and die.

Do you say it is?"

Boggins' teeth rang out, and he quickly lowered his head and said "yes".

Gu Le smiled slightly, turned around and walked out.

In the cold wind, he coughed a few times.

Boggins was stunned for a moment, then quickly followed, and after stepping out of the cabin, he carefully closed and locked the door.

Lan Lan listened to it for a while before she breathed a sigh of relief, lifted the lid, and breathed through, but her heart became more and more confused.

Gu Le took people to the northwest and seemed to be on an extremely dangerous mission Originally, it was surprising that Gu Le dared to go to the northwest.

You know, Lan Lan has heard in the imperial capital that the dean of the Academy of Magic, Carmen, is in the northwest at the moment For a long time, it was too late for Gule to hide from Carmen, but he personally killed Carmen's adopted son Xiao De And now, Gu Le actually dares to go to the northwest What kind of important task could make Gu Le so willing to take such a risk What kind of important task is it that makes Xiluo prefer to take such a big risk to send Gu Le to the northwest, but before Xiluo has always been careful to protect Gu Le When night fell, Dean Carmen, who was being missed by Lan Lan, was already strolling through the streets of Loulan City in the night.

Carmen finally stopped wearing the overly conspicuous red robe, but changed into a long, gray-black leather robe common in the Northwest, and even wore a thick fur hat on her head, which looked like a fur trader.

As for the one who followed Carmen, with a cautious expression on his face, wearing a leather jacket with obvious signs of obsolescence, it was naturally our Lord Baron Rova, Darling Chen.

When night fell, the two easily avoided the city defense and sneaked into Loulan City.

Walking down the street like this at the moment, it doesn't look dazzling.

Loulan City seems to have a little more tense atmosphere than in the past.

Although the Tulip family has not officially participated in the war, the mobilization and mobilization of the army have added a bit of war to Loulan City.

There are many fewer merchants and pedestrians on the streets, and many shops have closed their doors.

At the end of the streets, the number of soldiers patrolling did not seem to increase much, but the tense atmosphere could not hide Chen Daolin's nose.

"It seems that this Lancheng is loose on the outside and tight on the inside."

Carmen sighed softly.

Chen Daolin pursed his lips and didn't say anything.

If he had a choice, he really didn't want to come to Loulan City at this time, let alone run to face that woman, which was a very strange and subtle psychology.

"We're going to the Duke's Palace tonight."

Carmen said this coldly, not in the tone of discussing with Chen Daolin, but making a decision.

"Uh" Chen Daolin thought for a moment and said with a wry smile: "If I sneak in, I know where the defense is the weakest in the street behind the west side of the castle." ” "Oh" Carmen glanced at Chen Daolin unexpectedly: "How do you know?"

"If I say I've been here once, will you believe me?"

The two found a hotel to stay and rest, although the investigation in Loulan City is very strict now, but for the two saint-level magicians, there is no difficulty in deceiving the vigilant shopkeeper, and a small technique makes the shopkeeper register the two of them in a daze.

And what made Chen Daolin feel a little chilly in his heart was some of the preparations that Dean Carmen did when he was resting in the room Dean Carmen took out a few items from the storage gear.

Two magic amplification rings that look top-notch, a magic reserve ring made of multicolored stones, and a few high-level fire-type magic scrolls that don't look like they're ordinary These things are enough to fight a small war Just that one fire-type high-level magic scroll would be enough to destroy a small town What made Chen Daolin feel most frightened was the cold and decisive taste in Carmen's eyes "Dean, you can't be" Chen Daolin swallowed hard and foamed.

Carmen glanced at Chen Daolin, with a hint of coldness on her cold face: "It won't be anything" "You're not going to fight for that duchess tonight, are you?"

"Let's hope that doesn't happen."

Carmen said lightly.

Hopefully not, that's what it means "I will try to persuade her to give up those dangerous and crazy ideas, I hope to persuade her to put the country first" Carmen said lightly, "but if she insists on refusing" "If you refuse, then you are going to do it" "Then we have to use force to speak."

Carmen shook her head: "Although I am from the Tulip family, if it is a state affair, I can't let her, a girl, mess around, let alone sit back and watch her lead the Tulip family to madness."

If I can't do it, I'll do it. ” "You won't be, you won't want to assassinate a Duke Tulip in Duke Tulip's Palace," Chen Daolin was taken aback.

Carmen sighed faintly, "If things are really bad to that point, there is no choice" Chen Daolin's heart sank "As a member of the Tulip family, assassinating a family lord and duke is naturally a big rebellion, but if it is for the sake of the national fortune of the empire, then this sin, I have no choice but um, I don't want to kill, if she insists on refusing to back down, I will choose to subdue her, and then convene the elders of the family to discuss and depose her as a duke, if she resists to the end, then after killing her, I will commit suicide to apologize."

Chen Daolin's body shook: "Dean, you can't think so" "Of course I don't want to do that."

Carmen glanced at Chen Daolin: "The tulip family's castle is very dangerous, even if I am a saint, I may not be able to deal with that little girl."

And I've heard that she's only afraid she's also a saint.

That's why, Darling Chen, I'm asking you to come with me.

If I deal with her alone, I don't have the certainty of subduing her, in case I can't stop my hands, I'm afraid that I will see life and death, so if you don't want to see someone die, then you can't stand by and watch, you and I join forces, and the two of us deal with her, so that it is possible to subdue her and not die.

Darling Chen, do you understand?"
