093 Sniper from Tachibana (Part 1)
The three carriages were walking on the official road. Pedestrians, caravans, or other people along the way, when they saw the heralds on these three carriages, they retreated to the side of the road, stopped, some bowed their heads, and some bowed, and most of them expressed their respect for the Soul Thinker Association with their actions.
Among the three major forces, the Sun Temple is too high and too ethereal. What remains in people's minds is just an empty impression. The Dragon Clan is considered an "alien race". People only have mysterious and hidden fears about it. Only the Souls Association, which does not have strong individual strength, can help people in all aspects. The most important thing is that they are in a downtown city. Although they are also a privileged class like the nobles, people can see them from time to time. Therefore, compared with the first two, people feel "kind" to those who think deeply about the soul.
Udir's grandson sat in the car. Through the gap in the curtains in the car window, he saw the passerby who was saluting him outside. His face was blushing with excitement. Although these gazes were not for him, he also felt honored.
Udir felt a little sad when he looked at his grandson's excited expression. As a soul-thinking person, he certainly hoped that his descendants could inherit his position. However, the appearance and birth of the soul-thinking person were completely unruly. Even if two men and women soul-thinking persons were combined, the descendants born were rarely soul-thinking persons.
Therefore, people feel that the soul thinker is the spreader of truth sent to the human world by the Sun God.
In the last carriage, Claude enjoyed the worship of pedestrians and enthusiastic gazes on the road. Udir's car curtains were black and put down, and his grandson could only look out from the small gap. Claude's car curtains were hung high, and he leaned against the soft fur seat, squinted his eyes, and through the gap between the upper and lower eyelids, he could clearly see the expression and expression of everyone outside.
He is very used to the identity, current status, envy, worship, or awe of his soul, and enjoys it very much.
The carriage in the middle belongs to Chen Xiansong. Like Udir's carriage, his carriage also lowered the curtains, and he himself was sleeping soundly with Bai Min's soft thighs. For him, only the scenery outside could attract him, but now he is tired of seeing it. Instead of being bored, it is better to sleep.
As we got further and further away from Qingxi City, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the official road, and most of the people we encountered were caravans coming and going.
At noon, the convoy stopped. The next city was still far away. At the current speed, they would arrive in the evening. Not far from the road, there was a clear stream, which was also the upper stream of Qingxi City. In the middle of the river and the official road, there was a green and flat grassland, and two lush trees grew by the river, leaving a large area of cute trees, which was a good place to rest at first glance.
However, there was already a caravan here, with a large number of people, at least a dozen people, who were making earthen stoves and preparing to cook.
When they saw the association's convoy arrive, they were stunned at first, and then a thin middle-aged man with a philistine-looking face and a businessman-like appearance walked up, standing in front of Udir's car and elbowed and laughing.
When Udir came, he saw the other person's face. He was stunned at first, and then frowned.
As a soul-thinking person born from a peasant, Udir has no prejudice between noble and humbleness. He is just that the businessman in front of him, with a deer-headed and mouse-eyed look, is not a good person no matter how he looks. In the civilized era, people cannot just look at their appearance. In this dark age, the sun servants often say that a kind heart is more important than a beautiful appearance... However, as long as creatures with "vision" are all sensory animals, they will always have a good impression of beautiful things and stay away from ugly things.
Several guards from the association rushed over quickly and stood between Udir and the thin merchant. It is their responsibility to go out and protect the safety of their masters.
Even Udir was a little displeased when he saw this thin businessman, not to mention these guards who were so straight that they looked like a gut. They looked very unfriendly, and they almost called each other out of their way.
"Your Excellency, I'm glad to see you," said the thin businessman with a smile: "I am the weapon merchant in Tuman City, Dozheming. You want to stay here, right? Please wait a moment, I have already moved my subordinates and we will leave soon."
Although he didn't like this businessman very much at first sight, Udir was not the kind of unreasonable person. This place was originally the other party arrived first, and the other party was already preparing to cook, so there was a reason to drive people out immediately.
Udir waved his hand: "Don't be so polite. I'll be grateful if I can get a little bit of room for us. It's not easy for everyone to go out. Just one can do it, just one can do it."
The thin businessman actually didn't want to leave. Seeing that Udir was easy to talk to, he gave in a little bit of humility and then flattered Udir. The businessmen liked to make connections and finally talked to a soul-thinking person. Of course, this businessman named Dozheming would not give up casually.
At this time, Chen Xiansong was yawning from the carriage. The merchant looked at him, and then saw Bai Min beside him. He immediately shuddered, as if it was amazing, and it seemed to be for another reason. Then he lowered his head and did not dare to look at it.
Claude also came out of the carriage. He walked to Udir and said hello symbolically. The thin merchant Duozheming seemed to know the time to advance and retreat. He found a proper reason and hurriedly retreated, then directed his companions to make a place. They had six trucks, and when they moved, the wheels drew two deep ditches on the grass.
The truck was covered with rainproof oil cloth and occasionally blown by the wind, and a cold light flashed by.
The three guards all took action. They ran to the river to scooped water and drank it. After all, they were a little thirsty after running all morning. Then they built the stove, set up the tent, and some guards ran to the river to catch fish, which really made them catch a few fat fish from the water. Although they were walking a long way, no matter what, those who think deeply in the soul are also privileged, and their food, clothing, housing and transportation are naturally not the same for ordinary people.
The caravan that set off the stove on the other side had already prepared lunch. They just had simple dry food and some dried broth. But Udir was different. The guards kept taking out all kinds of fresh vegetables from the cart, fresh tender meat, fruit wine, gorgeous tablecloths, and elves tableware pressed with ice in the cellar.
Before lunch can be cooked, it feels like a hearty meal.
The people from the Dozheming caravan, while eating their own food, looked over from time to time, as if they were frightened by such pomp. Even if they were eating what they were in their hands, they were a little absent-minded.
Claude took out a few folding chairs made by his elves and asked Udir and Chen Xiansong to sit down. Of course, he also gave Bai Min one, but Bai Min didn't even look at him, and still stood behind Chen Xiansong. In response, Claude shrugged and sat down by himself.
The place is beautiful. Listening to the sound of water and the singing of birds on the trees, when you go, you will see a clear stream of bright jade. Looking back, it is an official road for people to come and go. Different people like to appreciate things differently. Udir likes to watch the stream flow slowly, Crow likes to watch the official road for people to come and go, and enjoys their envious sight. The little grandson likes to see Bai Min, while Chen Xiansong is... sitting on a chair and dozing off.
The guards were cooking lunch. They were fighting personnel. Of course, they were not very proficient in cooking, so the things they made were not as good as those of the special chefs in each family. Bai Min was watching their skills. She originally wanted to go up and make delicious food for Xiaosong to eat, but now she is not safe everywhere when she is out. What if someone is malicious about Xiaosong when she is cooking?
Bai Min, who was worried about this, thought of this and gave up her original plan.
Not long after, lunch was ready, with fourteen dishes. Udil asked someone to wake up Chen Xiansong, and then asked Claude to come over. The three of them sat at the portable dining table. The old guard Robert poured a glass of fruit wine for the three of them, and then retreated aside.
"Come on, have some aperitif first." Udir raised his cup.
When Chen Xiansong was about to pick up the cup, Bai Min snatched the glass first, sniffed it, and then returned it to him after confirming it was not poisonous. Udir had been accustomed to this for a long time. This was the third time that Claude had seen such a situation, and his eyes couldn't help but emit a light of envy and jealousy.
The three of them had a drink and started their official lunch.
Udil and Claude tied napkins extremely gracefully. Chen Xiansong was not familiar with him and acted a little slowly. With Bai Min's help, he finally got it done. In fact, he had no good feelings for this thing at all. Why do he have to make it so troublesome when having a meal? But he just complained in his heart. He still understood the principle of following the local customs.
After such interruption, he became a little slow. At this time, Udir and Claude had already started eating.
Chen Xiansong grabbed a piece of tender meat, Bai Min snatched it and sniffed it. If it were in the past, she would soon return the food to Chen Xiansong, but this time, her brows frowned slightly, and then sniffed it again, and the beautiful willow eyebrows became even more curved. Finally, she took a bite and chewed slowly.
Chen Xiansong was a little surprised by Bai Min's abnormality.
Bai Min's face became colder and colder. She took out a beautiful golden silk pattern cotton handkerchief, spit out the things in her mouth on it, wrapped it up, and wiped her cute little mouth at the same time, and then slowly said: "The food is poisonous, don't eat Xiao Song."
Her voice was not loud, but almost everyone heard it. This was the result of the beauty effect. Whenever she appeared in public, she was the object that most male creatures had always paid attention to.
Udir spit out the things in his mouth, and then his face turned pale.
