Hurry during the day, try to find a tavern to spend the night in the evening, and if you can't find it, you will spend the night in the village with money.

Four days later, Gray arrived in the town of Qingluo.

It took a day longer than expected, and the reason was because Gray hadn't been to Qingluo Town before, and he had taken a lot of detours.

Qingluo Town, which is a large town and a small city, has a total population of 8,000.

Riding into Qingluo Town, Gray looked at Qingluo Town casually, and after a moment, his brow couldn't help but furrow slightly.

"How can there be so many mercenaries?"

As one of the towns near the blue sea forest, it is normal for some mercenaries to come to hunt wild beasts and obtain wild animal fur for a living, but at this time, there are people dressed as mercenaries everywhere, which is too dense.

Moreover, he even saw several people in battle uniforms, which was quite abnormal.

It's normal for ordinary mercenaries to hunt beasts and sell beast skins, but what are the blood warriors doing here?

With the money earned from hunting the furs of wild beasts, I am afraid that even after years of hard work, they may not be able to afford to buy their war uniforms, and in terms of efficiency, it is very inefficient to hunt such a low-end thing as wild beasts.

Confused, Gray continued to wander around town, eventually entering a tavern that looked fairly good.

Handing the horse over to the tavern men to feed, Gray walked into the tavern, and as soon as he entered the tavern, there was a cacophony of noises.

The shouts of drinking were louder and louder, and Gray looked up and saw that they were all mercenaries in leather armor.

They were in groups of three or five, occupying a table, ordering a few plates of side dishes, holding inferior ale wine in their hands, drinking and blowing nonsense, and many of them were red in the face, obviously drunk.

But even so, Gray's entry still attracted the attention of these people, after all, Gray's clothes were incompatible with the environment of the tavern full of mercenaries.

"This dress, is it...... Noble young master? ”

"Noble young master...... How did you get here? ”

"And it doesn't seem to have been ...... with guards yet."

Many of the mercenaries looked at Gray with curiosity in their eyes.

"What's the matter, this dress, absolutely high-end, I'm afraid it's worth this amount?"

An old mercenary who had seen a lot of the world stared at the clothes on Gray's body and stretched out five fingers.

"50 silver coins, so expensive?"

Hearing his words, next to him, a young mercenary with a look of surprise on his face.

These low-level mercenaries who hunted beasts, even if they were down in a year, they couldn't earn dozens of silver coins, and the clothes on the noble young master in front of him were actually worth 50 silver coins, which made his eyes full of envy.

"Phew, 50 silver coins, little Hamm, you haven't seen the world before, have you? Five gold coins, and at least. ”

The middle-aged mercenary put away four of his fingers, leaving only his index finger, shook it in front of the young mercenary's eyes, and said.

"What, five gold coins, this, this, this ......"

The young mercenary fell straight into a stutter.

Five gold coins, judging from their current income, will earn at least ten years, and at this time, the clothes on the noble young master in front of them are worth so much, that is to say, the money they earn for ten years is only enough for the young master in front of them to buy a set of clothes, and it may not be enough.

For a moment, he was shocked, envious, jealous, and mixed with all kinds of emotions.

"Runaway from home, without a guard...... Noble young master? ”

In addition to curiosity and surprise, there was another kind of gaze in the eyes that looked at Gray, and that was the greedy gaze, and there were quite a few of them.

Indeed, the nobles have great power, and if they offend the nobles, even if they don't die, they have to take off a layer of skin, so most of the mercenaries dare not offend the nobles.

However, when the interests are large enough, even the mercenaries who usually seem to nod to the nobles will sometimes suddenly burst out and attack these nobles who are usually high-minded.

It is enough to enjoy a lifetime of pleasure by doing a vote, traveling thousands of miles away, and escaping from the pursuit of aristocratic forces, this temptation is enough to make mercenaries who usually seem obedient and honest take risks, not to mention, few of them are honest.

Moreover, the fact is also the case, at this time, Gray has more than 20,000 gold coins, if a mercenary really robs Gray, not only for a lifetime, but even for several lifetimes, it is enough.

Neither the mercenaries with curious and envious glances nor the mercenaries with greedy eyes noticed that in a corner of the tavern, there were three mercenaries with extremely pale faces.

The three of them, a middle-aged man, a young man, and a young woman, were the three mercenaries Gray had met in that remote city.

Because Gray had never been to Qingluo Town before, he took a lot of detours and arrived in Qingluo Town a day later than expected, causing the three people who were supposed to be behind him to arrive in Qingluo Town one step ahead of him.

"These guys are looking for ...... death"

The young man glanced at the tables of mercenaries with greedy expressions as if he were looking dead, and shook his head secretly.

"Why did he come to Qingluo Town too?"

The young woman was curious.

"I don't know, he's going to stay at this tavern tonight, and we'll leave as soon as we're done."

The middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

He could already think of what was going to happen in the tavern tonight, and he wanted to hide as far away as he wanted now.

"Looks like it's time to change into normal clothes!"

Feeling this pair of greedy eyes, Gray felt helpless.

He is indeed not afraid of these mercenaries, but not being afraid does not mean that he is happy to be harassed by a school of fish that smells of blood.

He scanned the tavern and finally found an empty table to sit down.

"This young master, what do you want?"

A tavern clerk stepped forward to hand over the menu and asked respectfully.

Gray said with a wave of his hand, stopping him from handing over the menu.

"Four of your best dishes here."

"Okay."

The tavern clerk glanced at Gray suspiciously, not understanding why Gray was ordering four points alone, but he nodded quickly.

Gray's dress was eye-catching, but after the initial attention, whether it was curiosity or greed, he had already looked away.

After all, if you keep staring at others, everyone knows that you have bad intentions towards him.

The people in the tavern began to drink and continue to chat.

"Did you hear about it, the giant crocodile mercenary group is also here......"

"The Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group is also here?"

Hearing the news, some mercenaries couldn't help frowning.

The Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group, a more famous mercenary group in the Marquis of Oka's territory, it is said that there are fierce blood warriors in this mercenary group, and they are not at the same level as these small mercenary teams of three or five at all.

"Are they also here for the green radish?"

A mercenary was suspicious.

"Definitely."

A mercenary nodded affirmatively, and then worriedly.

"Coming for the green carrot grass is secondary, none of us are coming for the green carrot grass, but I heard that the reputation of the giant crocodile mercenary group is not good, so I am afraid that they will rob us in the forest."

"No, there are so many of us, they are not afraid of causing public anger?"

Some mercenaries were shocked.

"It's hard to say, although we have a lot of people, we are loose after all, and you also know the strength of the giant crocodile mercenary group."

There was a deep concern in someone's voice.

……

After eating a meal for four to the astonishment of the tavern and booking the best room in the tavern, Gray was led up the stairs up the tavern by a clerk.

"Young Master, this is your room!"

The tavern clerk leads Gray to the door of the best room and opens the door for Gray.

Gray walked in, looked at it, and was quite satisfied, the room was quite large, and there was also a special bathroom, and there was even a cultivation room.

"What else do you have to say?"

The tavern clerk asked earnestly.

"What's green radish?"

Gray asked with some curiosity on his face.

Listening to the chat of these mercenaries in the tavern just now, he found that these mercenaries were all coming for the green radish, and he couldn't help but wonder, what is this green radish?

"Young Master Hui, this is a magic medicinal material, the cheapest one can also be sold for a few gold coins, our Bihai Forest is close to Qingluo Town, rich in green radix grass, these mercenaries are here to try their luck."

"That's it."

Gray nodded clearly, no wonder there were so many mercenaries, it turned out that they were here for the magic medicinal herb of green radish.

Of course, although he knew that this green radish grass was worth a few gold coins, he still did not have the slightest interest.

Each plant only costs a few gold coins, and in terms of the value of magic herbs, this is definitely one of the worst magic herbs.

No longer paying attention to the green radish, Gray asked.

"Is there a leather armor seller in this town?"

"Yes."

The tavern clerk replied.

"Buy a set for me and come back, and the rest will be yours."

Gray took out ten silver coins and handed them to the other party.

"Yes, please rest assured, young master, I will buy it back for you soon."

Feeling the weight of the ten silver coins in his hand, the tavern clerk's eyes straightened, and his face was smiling.

Originally, he just wanted to try his luck and see if he could earn some tips, so he was extra attentive to Gray, but he didn't expect such a good thing to happen.

On the second day, a small piece of news spread in Qingluo Town.

Last night, there was a battle in a tavern in Qingluo Town, and a total of more than a dozen mercenaries were killed.

Mercenaries are a group of restless people, they are not satisfied with farming, they are not satisfied with the status quo of poverty, they gamble with their lives to win wealth.

It is very common for such people to gather together in large numbers and have conflicts, so it is not the first time that a battle like this has been fought in Qingluo Town.

And the reason why it is not small is because more than ten people died this time, which is significantly more than the ordinary battle of more than three or five people.

At this time, Gray, who killed these people, was wearing a set of leather armor and an ordinary mercenary, and walked towards the blue sea forest.
