Chapter 98: Horse thief's novel experience

Entering Hongye City, Quick was taken aback.

The situation inside was completely different from what he had imagined.

Outside Hongye City, there are low city walls, potholes and dirt roads, and tattered city gates.

However, in Hongye City, there are clean and tidy streets, neatly planned houses, no odorous air, and civilians with smiles on their lips.

This is not what a remote town should look like!

Quick was dumbfounded.

In his data, Red Leaf City was the most remote city in the Buck Kingdom, so remote that the king never paid attention to them and allowed them to fend for themselves.

If it weren't for their horse thieves not suitable for exposure, they would all want to grab the city.

Yes, Quick is a horse thief.

It is the watchdog among the horse thieves.

His mission this time was to monitor the pioneers of horse thieves who came to collect protection fees to prevent them from getting the money and running away.

Although it is said that such a thing rarely happens, because the horse thieves know how tragic it is to run away with money, they must be guarded.

So there is a supervisor, which is a hidden profession among horse thieves.

Quick because of his career, he has been to many cities, but no city feels so-weird!

That's right, it's weird!

An unreasonable monster!

"How? Are you shocked?"

The tall middle-aged man next to him asked with some humor.

He was no stranger to Quake's stunned look.

"Lam, why is Hongye City so clean?"

Looking at the clean street under his feet, Quick asked subconsciously.

In the cities he has been to, the streets are full of feces and urine, all kinds of ragged people snuggling in the corners, and occasionally nobles pass by and whip a few whips on these civilians, no one dares to resist.

"This is of course the credit of the Lord of the City. He specially set up a profession called cleaners. They clean the streets every day and prohibit anyone from littering the streets. If they are found, they will be fined, so Hongye The city is so clean, isn't it amazing?"

Lamb explained with some pride, as if he had done it.

"Cut! What's the use of that!"

Quake's tone was a little sour.

In order to enter the city today, he specially wore high heels. He was really not used to these things, but he had no choice. In order to avoid stepping on landmines, he could only do this.

But I didn't think so, these high heels seem to be a bit redundant today.

"Why is this useless? You may not know that all kinds of germs and viruses generally like to hide in relatively dirty places. If humans stay in such places for a long time, they may be infected with various diseases. In the early stage, the skin may be damaged. Itching, then slowly festering and pus, and finally potentially life-threatening!"

Lamb exclaimed.

"How do you know? I don't believe in these myths!"

Quick's face was a little unnatural, because after Lamb said this, he felt a little itchy on his body.

"Hey, do you feel itchy on your body? Let me tell you, this is the precursor to the disease!"

Lamb looked serious.

"what?"

Although Quick didn't believe what he said, he was still a little nervous when he saw the seriousness he said.

"But you're not worried. Generally, in your case, you only need a very simple method to cure it?"

"what way?"

"bath!"

"Take a shower? No no no!"

What a joke, take a shower! Doesn't this make the condition worse?

It's impossible to take a shower, it's impossible in this life!

Quick howled in his heart.

As for Quick's performance, Lamb was as expected, and he didn't say anything. He believed that after a period of time, Quick would change his ways.

Because he was here before.

It's winter now, and the weather is a little cold.

Quick has caught a cold recently, and he feels a thick phlegm in his throat, ready to spit it out.

When Lamb found out, it was already a little late. Seeing that there was no way to stop him, he hurried away from Quick, as if he didn't know him.

The rest of the caravan did the same, instantly turning away from Quick.

Quick was a little stunned, so he spit up, why did everyone run away?

"Hello sir, according to the fourth major item, the fifth article, the sixth subsection, are you spitting on the street at will, you have violated the law of Hongye City, and you will be fined one silver coin, if you have any If you have any comments, you can go to the city hall for consultation or complaints.”

An aunt with a red armband appeared beside Quake at some point, and said a lot as if reciting the text.

Quick did not understand the management regulations and the articles, but he understood the fine of 1 silver coin.

"Why, why can you fine me? Do you know who I am?"

It is impossible for Quick to pay the fine. Who is he, he is a horse thief!

He was the only one who asked others for money, how could he give money to others!

"I don't care who you are, but if you don't pay me the fine, you can give it to them, but it's more than one silver coin."

The red-sleeved aunt pointed to a team of ten patrolling soldiers not far away.

That team of soldiers also seemed to have noticed the situation here and was coming here.

"I……"

Quick was a little nervous, he put his hand on his waist subconsciously, but he assessed that he was definitely not the opponent of these ten fully armed soldiers.

"I give!"

Quick gritted his teeth, the scars on his eyebrows looked hideous.

A hero does not suffer from immediate losses, he is Quirk, and he will definitely come back with revenge.

After the aunt received the fine, it was not difficult for Quick, she cleaned up the thick phlegm by herself.

At this time, Lamb returned to Quick and said a little embarrassedly:

"I'm sorry, I want to remind you, but it's too late. If we don't stay away from you, and you make some dangerous actions, we will be arrested by the patrolling soldiers as lawbreakers. Getting out of the prison is not as simple as a silver coin!"

Regarding Lamb's remarks, Quick snorted coldly and said nothing.

However, this incident also made him more curious about Hongye City. This Hongye City not only has strict laws, but also very strict guards, which is completely loose on the outside and tight on the inside.

In just a short while, he saw several teams of patrolling soldiers.

If he just started, he is really courting death.

"Haha, in order to express my apologies, I invite you to dinner!"

Lamb is also a hospitable person, and he patted Quick on the shoulder very boldly.

"good!"

Quake didn't refuse either. Anyway, he didn't eat it for nothing.

Along the way, everything you see is clean and tidy.

There is also something called a trash can on the side of the road, which is specially designed for people to put garbage.

There's even a public restroom!

The toilet is also known as the toilet.

If he remembers it well, it seems that there are only toilets in the castle, and the toilets in the castle are not very popular, and they are usually solved nearby.

Everyone is afraid of trouble.

Why are people here so accustomed to going to the bathroom?

fine!

In an instant, Quick understood that this must be the high-pressure policy implemented by the Lord of Hongye City! Forced these civilians to do this!

This city lord is definitely a strange person. He wants to impose his own strange ideas on these civilians. If he does not agree, he will be fined!

If you look at it this way, this city owner is definitely unpopular, and he is also very rich!

After all, there are fines everywhere, and only a silver coin for spitting, which is even more profitable than a horse thief! You can get rich just by charging a fine!

The more Quick thought about it, the more he felt that this Red Leaf City was really a good place.

A place for horse thieves to raid!

After all, there are no walls here.

Those adobe city walls, Quick didn't pay attention to them. With their horse thieves' riding skills, such a small dirt **** can jump up in the blink of an eye, and it is not difficult at all.

Quick memorized the situation in Hongye City hard and observed the layout inside. He wanted to provide the most important information for the subsequent plunder of the horse thief.

As for the missing horse thieves, Quick didn't take it to heart. Whether they died or ran away with money, as long as the Red Leaf City was still here, the horse thieves would definitely not suffer!

Of course, Lamb didn't know what Quick was thinking along the way.

He also enthusiastically introduced the customs of Hongye City to Quick.

Soon, the group came to the Hongye Restaurant in Hongye City.

As soon as he walked to the door, Quick smelled a faint fragrance.

"This is……"

Quake wanted to break his head, but he couldn't figure out what kind of food this was, how could it be so fragrant!

"Haha, this is the characteristic of Hongye City - fish!"

"What? Fish? Can fish eat?"

Quick was taken aback.

"That's natural. Fish is not only edible, but also a very delicious food. I believe you will not be disappointed after eating it!"

Cook didn't believe Lamb's words, but since it was Lamb's treat, he didn't say anything, just watch it later, and it didn't cost him anyway.

Once you enter the red leaf restaurant, it is like entering another world.

As a horse thief, Quick was a little cautious.

In the eyes of others, this is impossible, but it happened.

Because this restaurant looks really tall!

The high roof, the magnificent hall, all kinds of mysterious and complicated golden patterns, plus the huge floor-to-ceiling windows...

Quick has never seen such an atmospheric decoration.

Before, he thought this restaurant was a pub, but now it seems that it is not the same thing at all.

Moreover, these people in the restaurant, all dressed in clean and tidy clothes, sat elegantly in their seats, and spoke softly. They couldn't even hear them, only the sound of clinking glasses.

At this time, a woman passed by Quake. She had a beautiful face and did not have much expression on her face. She was wearing delicate and slim clothes, and her slender figure was fully displayed. Lost.

"Hey Quick, don't look at it, this is the mayor Erica, but the red man in front of the city lord is not something you can make up your mind!"

Lamb whispered in Quick's ear.

"I……"

Quick didn't know what to say. He even had a trace of inferiority complex, thinking that he was not worthy of the other party at all. At that moment, he thought this was the princess of which country.

"This woman, I, Quick, are going to make a decision!"

But after all, he was a horse thief. Quick adjusted his emotions quickly. He even thought of the scene where he took this woman away when the city of Hongye City was destroyed.

"Hey, another poor person who was bewitched. If you saw the city lord's wife, I'm afraid that your soul would be out of your body!"

Although Lamb is a little embarrassed, he is not surprised. This kind of thing is often staged. After all, there have been many outsiders who have never seen the world recently come to Hongye City.

A group of people sat at two tables, Lamb beckoned skillfully, and a female police officer came to him.

"Hello sir, what do you need?"

Before Quick could recover, he was stunned again when he saw the waiter.

Is this red leaf city rich in beautiful women?

In fact, this waitress is not a beautiful woman based on her appearance alone, but she has an aristocratic temperament under the background of her clothes and demeanor.

This made Quick wonder if this was some noble lady who ran out to experience life.

As a man, Lamb also admired it, but didn't look at it too much, after all, these are women who he can't get.

He didn't ask Quick what to eat, and ordered a few dishes directly.

"That's all for now."

"Okay sir, please wait a moment."

The waiter took the menu and left.

Lamb gave Quick a smile that a man could understand.

"How about it, the beauty of Hongye City is beautiful!"

"Pretty!"

Quick answered truthfully.

"Hey, just pass the eye addiction, anyway, it's a woman you can't get!"

"..."

Seeing that Quick was absent-minded, Lamb said nothing, and soon, plates of delicious food were brought up.

Quick's eyes were finally attracted.

"This is—a fish?"

Quick was a little shocked.

"Yes, fish is a major feature of Hongye Restaurant, come and try it!"

Since no one here can use chopsticks, the restaurant prepares all knives and forks.

Quick was holding a knife and fork, and some did not know where to start.

At present, Lamb doesn't care about Quake anymore. There is a time limit for eating at Hongye Restaurant. After all, for the aborigines here, you can get a 20% discount, and for civil servants, you can even get a 40% discount. Hongye Restaurant Often full.

after an hour.

Quick came out leaning against the wall.

"Quake, you are really too edible!"

Lamb felt a little regretful, and had known that he would not invite Quake to dinner. Since he said to invite, the other party is not full, so you can't settle the bill, you can only wait until Quake is full.

I ate three silver coins from Lamb at this meal. I feel so bad!

"Hehe, more treats!"

Quick never thought that fish could be so delicious. When he returned, he must tell the leader to catch fish!

"Quake, there is another good place in Hongye City, which is not much better than Hongye Restaurant. Do you want to go?"

Lamb asked suddenly.

"Oh? There are good places! Of course you have to go!"

Quick originally thought that Hongye Restaurant was the only good place in Hongye City, but he didn't expect it to exist. Could it be another restaurant?

Although he was full, Quick didn't mind a little more.

"Cough, so what, I don't have enough funds..."

Of course, Lamb didn't have enough money, but wanted to invite Quick.

"How much would it cost if there were two of us?"

Quick looked at Lamb vigilantly. As a horse thief, he was very cautious about gold coins.

"It's not expensive, it's not expensive, and the service is different at different prices. A few copper coins that are cheap will do, and the most expensive one is just a silver coin."

Hearing Lamb's explanation, Quick was relieved.

As long as the consumption is less than one silver coin, he can still afford it.

As for the task of finding those horse thieves and investigating the city's defense, he chose to ignore it, at least he couldn't finish it today.

"Then what are you talking about..."

Quick was curious.

"You'll know when you wait!"

After Lamb sold out, and after dismissing his subordinates, he took Quick to a steaming house.

As soon as you walk in, you can feel the heat.

"This……"

"This is the bathhouse."

"Bathroom? Take a bath!"

Quick was taken aback and left without thinking.

But Lamb grabbed him.

"Hey, what are you running? Taking a shower is a very comfortable thing!"

Lamb is tall and big, and when he grabs it, Quick really can't get rid of it.

"Mr. Lamb, what do you mean!"

Quick was a little unhappy. He was unwilling to take a bath if he got into the water, but his immunity would be weakened, and he might even get sick.

"Hey, it's really comfortable, I won't lie to you, and take more baths to be healthy, really!"

Seeing Quick's disbelief, Lamb said again:

"How about this, I'll go wash, you can take a look inside, if you don't want to wash, no one will force you."

Quick thought for a moment, then agreed.

He was also very curious, what kind of magic does this bathhouse or this red leaf city have, so that people are not afraid of water!

After the two came in, the moist heat rushed to the face, and it was instantly warm.

"Come on, the men's bathroom is here, and the women's bathroom is over there."

Lamb pointed to the other side, both of them were curious about the women's bathroom next door, after all, it was a man, but unfortunately it was so tightly blocked that they didn't see anything.

A male waiter came to receive the two. Quick said that he took a look at it casually, and the waiter didn't say anything. After all, many outsiders are hostile to water.

Taking the two to the hall, some neatly dressed people sat here and whispered.

They were all curious about the bathhouse, but they were a little afraid of water, so they went outside to see the situation.

Because they are all men, there is nothing to be ashamed of. There is a half-door curtain between the hall and the bathroom at the back, which not only divides the space, but also allows people to see the situation in the bathroom.

Quick took a look and saw that the bathhouses inside were pools of water, large and small, each of which was different.

Lamb took off his clothes and went straight down into a large pool.

Someone else came to help him rub his back.

Looking at his comfortable appearance, Quick was a little puzzled. Is bathing really comfortable?

In his memory, the last time he took a bath was a year ago. If he hadn't dipped too much blood during the murder, he would never have taken a bath.

Thinking back now, the feeling of bathing in the river at that time was just one word - cold!

Does it feel different to take a shower with hot water?

Quick looked comfortable when he saw many people getting out of the water, and couldn't help but doubt himself.

At this time, a waiter came over, he came to the hall, and said loudly:

"Hello everyone, it's time for daily popular science again. Today's popular science is still water..."

This person is naturally arranged by Zhang Feng. Zhang Feng can't stand the swooshing of people in Hongye City. Besides, he can make a lot of money by opening a bathhouse.

Speaking of popular science, there is actually nothing in-depth. It is just a brief introduction to water, and then through a few short stories—someone was seriously ill, but he was cured immediately after taking a bath.

The story is a bit exaggerated, but after the waiter told it vividly, some people couldn't help but believe it immediately.

After listening to this, everyone fell into contemplation, and some were even eager to try.

Quick couldn't hold back his curiosity, he gritted his teeth and said:

"That, service, waiter, I'll try it too!"

"Okay sir, what price do you need, we have..."

"Just a normal one, just the fifty copper coins."

"Okay, but since you are here for the first time, according to the regulations, you can only use the single-person bath, so our price will increase by 20%, which means that you need 60 copper coins."

"You... Forget it, sixty is sixty!"

Quick thought he was being slaughtered, but he didn't care. It was only sixty copper coins. He could afford it. Besides, it wouldn't take long before this Red Leaf City would be captured by their horse thieves. Take it back!

But when it was time to wash, Quick didn't know why he was left alone.

Quick watched helplessly as the water in the bath changed from clear to turbid.

Even turned into mud.

Looking at the crystal clear pool of others, Quake, who was a horse thief, blushed rarely, embarrassed.

...

"Quick, let me just say it, bathing is very comfortable!"

At the door of the bathhouse, Lamb and Quick came out together.

Quick nodded in agreement. Now he feels light all over his body. This is not simply a bath, but a wash of lead!

"Then let's go to the pub?"

Lamb invited.

"No."

Quick shook his head.

Originally he planned to go to the pub. He had always heard that the wine here was very special, something he had never heard of, but now after taking a bath, Quake suddenly sobered up, he was a horse thief, he did not come to enjoy it, But to investigate the situation!

As long as you can occupy this red leaf city, are you afraid that you won't be able to enjoy it?

"Okay, then I'll go by myself."

Lamb didn't say anything after seeing this, and he went to the tavern alone.

Quick watched him leave.

...

two hours later.

After various inquiries and speculations, Quick determined that the four horse thieves had died.

Many soldiers have seen the four corpses in Blackstone Forest, and Zhang Feng did not let them hide it.

"Those pioneers are indeed dead!"

Although he had guessed this possibility~www.novelmt.com~, after he really confirmed the news, Quick's face was still ugly.

The death of the four pioneers means that his leader will be furious, and even he may be affected a little, unless he can bring better news to the leader - such as Red Leaf City is a rich but defenseless city !

"No, I have to leave and report this news and the situation of Hongye City to the leader!"

At night, Hongye City will close the city gate. Although these adobe walls can't stop him, he doesn't want to make extra troubles.

Quick disappeared into the crowd.

At the same time, Lamb quietly came to the third floor of the tavern.
