Chapter 183 King Sauron’s Treasure
As expected, the camp of Jack’s black mercenary group is not far from the battle site. The snow in the camp has been shoveled clean, and the tent is set up on solid ground. It is much better than sleeping in the snow in the past few days.
There was a large bonfire in the middle of the camp. A dozen snow dogs by the tent started barking when they saw someone alive, but they became quiet again under Carter's instruction. Carter was the big man he met in the tavern.
"Please take a seat." The beer box served as a seat, and several people sat down around it.
The essential barbecue is set on the campfire, as well as snacks and peanuts.
"Go on." Several bottles of beer were thrown at them, and everyone took one in their hands, including Bing Zhixie.
Jack took a big sip of wine and asked: "Little brother, where are you going, or are you hunting in the woods? Oh, yes, it shouldn't be hunting. Who would go to the hinterland of the forest sea and snowy fields? Come to hunt.”
Alice looked around and found that she had no wine, and was a little disappointed.
Bing Zhixie took a sip, handed it to her, and said: "We are going to Danluer. It is too troublesome to take a detour, so we chose to go directly through the forest and snow fields."
" Danluer." Jack nodded: "Oh, you should come from the south. Yes, if you take the road, you can only get there by taking the western port and crossing the inland sea, but it is much safer than walking through the forest and snow fields. .”
Bingzhi smiled evilly: "I can't help it. I have important things to do, and I can't take care of these many things."
Carter rummaged in the tent for a long time before coming out and saw Alice drinking beer. , smiled and said: "Oh, Miss, I thought you wanted to drink a cocktail."
"I want it, I want it." Alice really shouted like a little girl and returned the beer. Bingzhixie.
"Okay." Carter gave her the glass, poured rum and gin, and added two ice cubes.
Alice held the cup and took a sip: "Well, it tastes really good."
Bertha also drank a cocktail. Bertha was the woman she met in the tavern, the one who threw darts just now. When Bing Zhixie met her in the tavern for the first time, she also drank a cocktail. It seemed like this was her hobby.
"What about you?" Bing Zhixie asked: "Such a group of people are here, with such complete camping equipment and sleds pulled by snow dogs. Since they came prepared, they should not be rushing. ”
Alice thought: “Ah, you I just said treasure adventure group, are you a treasure hunter?”
Jack smiled: “That’s right.”
“Oh~!” Alice suddenly became excited: “ Is there a treasure here? Is it a legendary treasure? ”
Bertha sipped her wine and smiled: "This little girl is really interesting."
"Yes." Jack smiled: "We are looking for the legendary treasure of King Sauron."
Alice was amazed: "Ah, there really is a treasure. Master, there really is a treasure."
Bing Zhixie thought for a while and said: " King Sauron, is he the king who was dominant twenty years ago?"
Jack said: "It was him who fled after the regime established by King Sauron was overthrown. His hometown was Danluer, and he hid all his property in the forest and snowy fields, leaving behind a few riddles about the treasures. ”
"Captain!" The petite woman spoke again, as if she didn't want Jack to say anything about the treasure.
Jack said: "It doesn't matter Sando, the treasure is an ownerless thing, and whoever finds it belongs to him. Besides, the riddle of the treasure is not a secret, it doesn't matter if you tell it, and there are so many of us, Are you still afraid that they will rob you?"
Sando stopped talking.
Jack smiled at Bing Zhixie and others: "My cousin Sando, don't mind. I encountered robbers when I was a child, so I am wary of everyone."
Bing Zhixie Also smiled: "We are not interested in treasures."
These words surprised some of them.
Carter said with a smile: "What a strange boy. When others hear about treasures, they usually feel mysterious and exciting, and they fantasize about the same treasures. It's really interesting that you said you are not interested."
Alice nodded repeatedly, but she agreed with Carter's words: "Yes, why are you not interested? Master, I am very interested." Bing Zhixie glanced at her.
Alice had no choice but to lower her head and remain silent.
Carter laughed: "Haha, little brother, I didn't expect that your tutoring is quite strict, and the little girl is quite afraid of you."
Bing Zhixie said to Alice: "Even if you want to follow Look, you need someone to let you go with you."
Sando looked at them with hostility: "Captain, you still said that he. They are not interested in the treasure. Look at them, they are obviously trying to retreat and want to follow us."
"Sando!" Jack stopped and said apologetically to Bing Zhixie: "I'm sorry. Children are ignorant.”
Ishu Sen on the side smiled softly, obviously Bing Zhixie was younger than Sanduo.
Bingzhixie said bluntly: "We are really not interested in the treasure, because we are in a hurry and may have to separate tomorrow. So Miss Sando, you don't have to worry."
Jack said: "Did you hear that? , why don’t you apologize to the guest quickly?”
“Yes. I'm sorry."
Bing Zhixie said: "Speaking of which, I have something to ask you for help."
"What is it? Just tell me if you can help me. Jack said: "Is it a matter of dry food and survival supplies?"
"No, no." Bing Zhixie shook her hand: "My...disciple, she is the one who recently started to study warrior skills. I wonder if you have any relevant books here, or can teach her some simple techniques, so that she can She practices."
"Oh, that's no problem, it's on me." Carter stood up and said, "I have some books on warrior skills, but they're not. Beginners. Hey, I've taught you the basic skills myself. If you want to learn more specifically, you still need to learn them specifically. You can't learn them just by reading books without the guidance of others, especially warrior skills."
"Alice." Bing Zhixie agreed that this was the purpose of coming here. He could get Alice started as early as possible while he was in the forest and snowy plains. After all, she had already started late.
Alice quickly stood up and bowed twice: "Thank you, thank you."
Carter said: "Come, follow me, I will give you the book."
Alice went with him to practice warrior skills.
Jack said: "Little brother, actually you can't leave tomorrow. We are also going north and we can walk together for a while."
"No need, thank you for your kindness." Bing Zhixie said: "We still want to go alone, let's get used to it."
Jack thought for a while and said: "Oh, yes, yes, you are one master and one servant, one man and one woman. There are some things that really should not be done with outsiders around."
Bing Zhixie knew that he had misunderstood. Yes, but he didn’t explain it either, which was fine, as it saved him from having to think of some polite words to politely refuse.
On the starry night, Alice followed Carter and studied for most of the night before resting. She set up the tent that Ihuson carried on his back and fell asleep. Of course, Alice and Ishuson slept together, while Bing Zhixie sat and slept in the tent.
The next day, Jack and the others packed their luggage and sled, and Bing Zhixie also packed his tent.
Carter threw away two bottles of beer, one bottle of dry red and several packets of dried meat and fish: "Save it for the road, be careful."
"Thank you, thank you." Ellie Si packed up everything, smiled and waved to them, watching them leave on the sleigh.
Bing Zhixie asked: "Have you learned everything you learned yesterday?"
Alice thought for a while and said uncertainly: "You've learned it all."
"Okay, let's go too." Bing Zhixie led the way, but also in the direction of Jack and the others. Went, but took a different path.
