my age of magic

Chapter 128 128. Prosperous Gludin

Fifteen days later, Gludin town.

Qige and I sat on the tall Yagui Beast, with sacks full of magic herbs sitting under the buttocks, which were seven or eight meters high. Ding Zhen had a panoramic view.

Seeing that the patchwork wooden roof is covered with colorful cloth strips, it is really beautiful when it dances with the wind.The small town of Gludin is as big as ten Yemeni towns. Only by sitting on the sack on the back of the tall Yagui beast can you feel the majestic atmosphere of the town.

On the loess road around the town, you can see groups of orcs gathering towards the town. Most of the orcs rushed to the town with their luggage. The children followed behind, and it could be seen that Gludin Town in front of them was their last hope.

In the valley not far away, a magnificent fortress was built between two mountains. Only the outline can be vaguely seen among the gray rocks. That is the most famous Gludin Fortress on the Pai Plateau.

A caravan composed of thunder rhinos was stationed on the grass not far from the south of the town. At first, I even mistakenly thought it was our caravan. Those thunder rhinos who looked very familiar were gathered by the pond Drinking water, I even thought we were late, old Kuru got here one step ahead of us.

But after looking carefully, I found that the goods in this caravan were not refined iron ingots, but bags of food wheat piled up in the caravan camp.

The wheat that can be ground into flour and baked into fragrant sweet bread made the eyes of the beast girls in our team very hot. Those are real grains, piled up like hills.

In the orc tribe on the Pai Plateau, even black bread is not easy to eat. The barley mountain in front of them is no different from a huge golden mountain to these orc girls from the countryside.

But just in front of such a golden mountain, there are not many orcs stopping. For the orc werewolves who lack food and even starve to death, this mountain of wheat cannot be less attractive. In front of the camp, there were almost no orcs, and the atmosphere seemed very weird.

Seen from a distance, the architectural style of the entire Gludin Town is a simple and majestic log-structure animal pen-type building. The orcs like to surround huge logs into a huge circular fence, and the sharpened log tops Place a triangular wooden frame, and cover the wooden frame with thick rafters, so that a huge wooden house is built. The inside of the house is also built with countless timbers. The gaps are smoothed out, and it looks like there are many round towers.

It can be seen that the wealthy orc nobles in the town like to build their houses at the east end of the town. Those tall courtyard walls and tall towers exposed outside all show the extraordinary identity of the owner. The stairs of those tall houses, surrounded by On the outside of the circular tower-shaped giant house, Zeng spiraled upwards, looking extremely magnificent.

The further west you go, the lower the houses appear.I slowly discovered that very few of these houses had doors and windows repaired.

Kuz stood on top of Yagui Beast, pointed excitedly at the houses in the distant town, and told me which ones were ordinary orc families in Gludin Town, and which ones were nobles living in the blood wolf clan.

On such a sunny morning, I can clearly see that in some exquisite masonry houses, those people standing by the windows are pointing at the busy street outside the window, talking excitedly about some interesting topics.

And in those poor houses, there will always be tall orcs coming out. If you look carefully, adult wolf orcs are not much taller than humans. Their stature is usually about two meters, only half a head taller than adult men. , but their figures are much stronger than adult human men. They all carry huge machetes with them, merge into the flow of people on the street, and disappear in a blink of an eye.

This is not a depressed town. The total population of orcs in the entire town has remained at more than 5. Of course, there are also some merchants from humans. Now, there are more hungry people who escaped from small tribes. The orcs make this small town seem crowded, even so, it is difficult to see orcs begging for food on the street.

Those orc girls and orc children were handed over to Gribaschin to lead the team. After more than half a month of recuperation, there was not much color on their faces.

The remaining 200 orc girls and children of the Raitu tribe were also among them, and the rest of the orcs met on the road. They later discovered that as long as they dug some wild vegetables in the wilderness, they could drink hot wild vegetable soup. When the nobles show kindness, they can still drink some broth, and this team seems to be very free, it is up to them to decide whether to go or stay, so these orcs wandering in the wasteland are like streams. Like entering a great river, join our team and follow us all the way to the small town of Gludin.

On the way, I discussed with Kuz and Qige that we didn’t plan to stay in Gludin Town for too long. We overturned all the plans we had made in Yemen Town. At the beginning, Old Kuru just wanted us to cooperate with the Elders to The vermicelli was made in secret, and then put on the market when the caravan of Master Leipas came to Gludin Town, so that a new business route could be opened up for the orcs.But now we want to have our own territory, and we want to dig out the sweet potatoes buried there, so that the orcs of the blood wolf tribe can survive the great spring famine.

Kuz pulled Yagui Beast, and struggled to push aside the crowds blocking the road ahead. Yagui Beast's huge body and its full load of goods were very eye-catching. They came to strike up a conversation and wanted to find out what kind of goods we were carrying, but after these people got closer, they could tell that they were some ordinary magic herbs just by the way the exposed sacks were tied up with ropes.

"Are you selling these hemostatic herbs? I'll give you a high price!"

"Hey, do you sell herbal medicine? Seeing that you are a stranger, I can take you to the largest herbal medicine store in the town. The price is definitely the highest in the town!"

"Your herbal medicine is going to be trafficked back to Sloit City? You are from that herbal medicine firm. Such a young shopkeeper dares to let you out. You are really a hero! Do you want to stay in the shop? Do we have one in our small shop? There is a separate warehouse for storing goods, and there are special people to take care of the animals for you. If you choose our small shop to live, you will definitely not let your animals lose weight... Hey..."

Qige and I sat on a tall sack and looked down from above. Those human merchants in the orc town were like hardworking bees. The flies buzzed around Kurz, always trying to find out what Kurz was coming for.

Someone even wanted to lift the veil on Katerina's face who was following Kurz, but was kicked away by Kurz.

On the bustling street, among the bustling crowd, there are all kinds of orcs and humans mixed together. Kurtz is wearing a rough light armor of magic antelope, carrying a black alloy bow on his back, and two forged bronze swords are tied around his waist. The short mission ax, the silver pattern inlaid on it, only the dwarf craftsmen have such exquisite craftsmanship, the bone-eviscerating sharp knife that is as long as a foot is attached to the outside of the thigh, this luxurious version of the standard hunter dress makes everyone around They all looked sideways.

Inadvertently, after Kurtz pushed away the human businessman who was approaching in front with his shoulder, his hair in a ponytail was scattered by the crowd, and a small hand reached out to the leather money bag hanging on Kurtz's belt in the confusion, and walked in front of him. Katerina, who was behind, took two short steps forward, her white hand happened to block the restless little hand, causing the little hand to shrink back in panic.

"I don't sell this product, I don't stay in the store, I'm going home, please don't get in the way?" Kurudin-like orcish language spit out from Kuz's mouth in succession, and the crowded crowd Like a school of fish in the sea, they all dispersed.

Those merchants who came out of nowhere continued to look for the next target. There were a lot of hunters who came to Gludin to sell magic herbs and leather. Almost every day, they poured in from all directions in the wasteland. This spring is even more impressive. It was very lively, these second-hand dealers who are called brokers by the locals, as long as they are willing to let go of their old faces, they will always meet three or two fat sheep who don't understand anything. Many orc hunters are simple-minded, and some are busy After that, you will enjoy this ease and comfort, but you don't really care about how much money you have.

There are four gates made of huge logs in the southeast and northwest of Gluding Town. The gates are more than ten meters high. Even a Thunder Rhino fully loaded with goods can easily pass through the gates. Whenever such a large animal enters the town Let's go, the blood wolf orc guards at the gate of the town will step forward to check. The recent news has become more intense. There are a large number of people flocking to the town every day, and the management of large animals is even stricter.The town could hardly hold the people, and dared to drive the animals in, hum!
"Where are you coming from?" "Where are you going?" "There is a regulation in this town, no big animals are allowed!"

The werewolf guard of the blood wolf tribe who was stuck in front of the town recently said quickly, no matter whether you answer or not, he just spoke out like a routine, then tilted his head and squinted and looked up and down at the dusty Kurtz, as usual At that time, the orc hunters were very ignorant, and they were not as quick as the human merchants to take out a few copper coins from their pockets, hide them in their sleeves, and hand them over quietly, so that the werewolf guards could make a small fortune.But right now, the werewolf guard seems to have made up his mind to take something out of Kurtz, otherwise he will not be allowed to enter the town. Whoever asked him to lead a large animal full of goods and wear a gorgeous attire, this equipment is It's comparable to the standard equipment of the Blood Wolf Army in Gludin Fortress, it's really enviable.

Kuz raised his eyebrows and looked at the werewolf guard of the blood wolf clan, his eyes were wide open, his mouth was a little far-fetched, he held the rein of Yagui Beast with one hand, pointed at himself with the other, and asked in surprise: "What are you talking about?" Me? Our town has also started collecting city gate taxes? Are you sure you want to charge me?"

"You, you, you... are you... more special than others?" The werewolf guard of the blood wolf tribe was about to get angry when he was pushed away by another older middle-aged werewolf guard who was squinting and leaning on the wooden door post to sleep. , that person tried to squeeze his face into a chrysanthemum, smiled at Kuzi and said: "Oh, you are Master Kuzi, the seventh young master has returned, you are blind, you don't know our seventh young master, Oh, look at my mouth, now I am called Qiye, Qiye, have you just arrived home? Come on, let Qiye lead the horse to open the way..."
