Chronicles of Primordial Wars
Chapter 306: A Horn Man
The gold on Su's hand was square-shaped, shining in the sun, and even if it had been on hold for so long, no other clutter had been seen.
Shao Xuan didn't have much greed for the appearance of gold, more curiosity. He actually wanted to bring the gold to see it, but he was so excited to see Sugu protect it so tightly that he gave up the idea for a while, or wait for his mood to stabilize.
“Master San, Sugu, Sansan, have you seen enough? Enough watching, let's keep moving.” Shao Xuan hurried.
Close to the oasis, Shao Xuan was thirsty. Instead of admiring the gold from the sun here, he preferred to go to the oasis for a cool drink of water.
When Shao Xuan's words pulled him back, Su Gu found himself staring at the “stone” on his hand, quickly wrapped the gold in his hand and placed it in an inner pocket close to him. The clothes he was wearing today had a dark bag sewn into them, specially designed to hold things.
After loading it, Su Gu got up and took two steps to feel wrong. He looked at Shao Xuan on the side, looked up and down, carefully looked at the expression on Shao Xuan's face, and didn't let go of any detail. But finally, what made Su Gu helpless was that he really didn't see a bit of greed and intoxication from Shao Xuan's face. It seemed that what Shao Xuan had just seen was just an ordinary stone, not a precious stone.
“Don't you find that stone fascinating?” Sugu couldn't help but ask.
Shao Xuan shook his head, “No. ”
“How is that possible?!” Sugu measured Shao Xuan again, and it remains the conclusion just reached.
Someone can resist its charm?!
Now Su Gu was surprised, but at the same time had some doubts. Is it only himself who thinks the stone is fascinating? If that's the case, what if the prince doesn't like it when a gift is given to him?
Shao Xuan's reaction made Sugu hesitate to believe in his intention. Are you too obsessed or is Shao Xuan blind?
“Don't you have a special feeling when you see it?” Sugu asked.
A special feeling? Shao Xuan thought about it and he was just surprised.
Seeing Shao Xuan's expression, Sugu did not abandon the tunnel: “Did you not feel that this stone had a strange feeling like standing in the palace of the Imperial City looking down? ”
“I've never been to your palace.” Shao Xuando. At the same time, he deduced Sugu's feelings from Sugu's words. When he saw the gold, Sugu seemed to see power and wealth. The first time I saw gold, Sugu realized this. Is he really one of the few owners of the city? If it were for Ray and Tao, they would probably be more confused than Shao Xuan, and think that this “stone” is not a piece of meat yet important.
“Do you think he'd like it if I gave this stone to the Lost Leaf King?” Sugu asked.
“I think he'll like it.” As king of a city, nature possesses absolute ambition, and the pursuit of power and wealth is even greater than that of others, even if it is only the first time you see gold, but as long as Soulen, the fallen leaf king, likes it, he will certainly love this “stone” reflecting the golden light.
Su Gu wanted to show it to the other three to see how they reacted, but thought about it, or forget about it. We'll talk about it when we get back.
Keep moving forward, you can see some scattered grass, very prominent over this sandy area. After seeing a lot of yellow sand, a handful of green grass can also give you an infinite sense of life.
As we move forward, the ground is spreading more green grass, and there are some trees that Shao Xuan is not tall enough to name. With more than a dozen camels chained to the trunk, they were eating grass, not far away, and some slaves with weapons walked back and forth, gazing vigilantly at the desert in the distance to prevent anomalies.
Shao Xuan three followed Sugu and Wushi to Oasis. A group of slaves stopped them. After Sugu explained, Shao Xuan three people were able to really enter.
The oasis is not that big, but the defense force of this oasis is probably almost a thousand slaves, and for this, it's heavily guarded.
After entering this oasis, Shao Xuan found that there was a special group of slaves, about a dozen of them. Each slave had much better clothing than the other slaves. The other slaves, even if wearing cloth, were mostly broken and rotten, and the cloth on them, even with sand and stains, looked very neat, no holes, and the cloth still had pattern. Especially the leader, the one with the neat clothes. If Sook hadn't said those were slaves, Shao Xuan would have mistaken that slave for a slave owner.
“Those are the men beside the Father.” Sugu explained, "Oasis usually doesn't have so many people, probably because something happened here a while ago. ”
Seeing Su Gu, the man respectfully saluted, his eyes swept over Shao Xuan three people, seemed calm, but swept by those eyes, as if they had been wiped by a knife with a thorn.
Shao Xuan felt that the other party was very guarded against the three of them, and didn't have a good feeling about it.
“Three Young Lord, are they from the Flaming Horn Tribe?” The slave named "Red Stone” asked.
“Well, the three of them are people who work with me and come here with me.” Said Sugu.
Shao Xuan found that Sugu had a much better tone when talking to Akashi, and his attitude differed greatly from that of Akashi next to Sugu.
Also, one is following the king, one is following the young lord, the status is naturally separated by one level.
“That's it, hope the three of you get away from the fountain.” Red Stone said. The tone is also hard, and there seems to be no room for spinning.
“Why?” Sugu asked. Though he knew the others were going to stay away from the fountain, he heard something unusual about Akashi. Is there anything you don't know that's happening?
Akashi did not answer, just stared at Shao Xuan three people in a precautionary manner.
“Well, let's go and rest in that room over there.” Shao Xuan did not wait here either. He decisively took Ray and Tao to the place beside where the people who came and went to rest, which was also the resting place that Su Gufang showed them.
After waiting for a while in this sandy house, Shao Xuan waited with anger for Sugu, who wanted to come and talk to the slave was not pleasant.
“How about that?" asked Shao Xuan.
“No… nothing.” Sugu had a bit of a kowtow.
“Three Young Lord, I think we're in a partnership now, but there are some things I'd like you to tell us.” Shao Xuan said.
“Well, naturally, I know that.” Sugu nodded.
“So, Lord Three, I wonder, why is that slave so prepared for us? ”
Su Gu was about to answer, Shao Xuan lifted his hand and stopped. “Don't say that he did the same to other tribes. Just now he looked us in the eye and told me that he was just extra protective against us Horners. ”
When the slave named Akashi was questioning him, the word "flaming horn” was bitten heavily. Obviously something about the flaming horn tribe happened, but Shao Xuan three people did not know.
Su Gu thought about letting Wushi go out to guard the door and then said to Shao Xuanjiu: “A while ago, we sent water from the spring pool to the city. Someone hid inside the water delivery team, creating some trouble. ”
Su Gu didn't say much, but Shao Xuan could still guess something, “Is it possible that the slave thought the assassin had something to do with us? ”
Sugu nodded.
“But we, the Horn Tribes, came here only three times, as all the other Tribes know.” Shao Xuan said.
“I didn't say it was you. If you were sure you were involved, you would have been surrounded by slaves.” Sugu explained.
“Why is that?” Shao Xuan asked.
“Because of a man associated with your Flaming Horn tribe. Although by your tribal standards he no longer counts as one of your flaming horns, in the eyes of the slave owners and the slaves it is still relevant. ”
“Who is that man?” Shao Xuan asked.
“Knife. ”
