Chapter 494 8.13 Unexpected Fortune

Chapter 494 13 A windfall

In the evening, the wind and sand gradually weakened.

Abdullah Sah, who was riding a horse, returned excitedly. He counted the carriages of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce along the way and found that all 45 carriages were still in place.

His subordinates counted the battlefield and found that even if the Tang Dynasty sword cultivators could not fly and control swords, they still had very strong combat capabilities.

At least 200 of the 300 Arab cavalry brought by the "Crescent Chamber of Commerce" died at the hands of these four sword cultivators.

The dozens of riders who were able to walk in front of Loki were the only troops left after the battle.

They lost their lives purely because of their own actions.

**

"The debt between you and me has been paid off." When Loki put away the axe, he smiled and said to old Hash.

Hash looked at the minced meat and blood plasma hanging on his cheeks and the calm and cold eyes when his face changed color and he turned the axe. He was more convinced that the man in front of him must have slaughtered powerful creatures that were much more dangerous than humans!

If there was still a trace of doubt about Loki's identity, now Hash has firmly believed that he is the Viking God-killer!

He hurriedly asked the maid to find clean clothes for him, and at the same time offered clean water to wash his hands and body.

All the efforts were worth it.

When the veterans slaughtered the remaining family members in the trading company, what appeared in front of old Hash was a huge and almost crazy spoils of war!

On the winding dry riverbed, there were two hundred carriages full of various goods. If the goods carried on them were added together, the value was enough to be the sum of his half-life business.

At this time, a new problem was placed in front of him: how should he transport so many goods into Memphis.

Of course, there is another problem to think about.

Through Iliad's confession, Hash already knew that this was a black-eating-black operation. At this time in Memphis, there was another group of Tang people waiting for this batch of goods.

Dare to blatantly hire the mortal enemy of the empire and harm the chamber of commerce of their own country. Judging from their behavior alone, this group of Tang people must be a tough guy.

There are not many teams capable of escorting 200 carriages across the Black Desert.

If he only uses 50 people to escort nearly 300 carriages into Memphis, no matter how disguised, his arrival will detonate the entire city.

The "Hash Caravan" will undoubtedly become the focus of everyone's discussion, and will also become the target of everyone in this wild desert city.

Loki's original intention was just to repay the old man for picking him up in the desert. Unexpectedly, by mistake, a few axes cut out most of the old man's property.

It is no exaggeration to say that the wealth carried in the more than 200 carriages in front of him may not be earned by him working hard for 20 years.

If these carts of red goods were abandoned in the riverbed, the old man Hash, who struggled to survive in the mud for most of his life, would never agree.

Even if he could agree, his porters and laborers would not allow it.

"Ganna!"

"When a man dies, the birds turn upside down. How can we not eat the fat meat that is right in front of our mouths?! Brothers, connect these carriages together first! At the same time, collect all the surviving horses!"

"Let's gather the vehicles together and check the cargo lightly! Throw away the low-value food, clean water, salt, and steel, and keep the precious tea, porcelain, silk, and spices!"

"Everyone, be quick, it's getting dark! Be careful of the sand snakes that come out to forage at night!"

The creatures in the desert are very sensitive to blood and water. At this time, there are hundreds of corpses scattered in the riverbed. The sandstorm has been blowing for more than half a month. When the beasts are also hungry, it is very dangerous to stay in the riverbed for a long time.

The porters and laborers heard the order and no longer cared about picking and choosing.

Everyone had a big smile on their faces. They knew that they had truly found gold in the black desert on this trip.

The laborers who entered the desert for the first time were busy working, muttering to themselves, calculating how many silver coins they could get in this trip.

"Ha, silver coins? Oh my God, you guys are so ignorant!"

"Even if it's golden dinars, we can put them in baskets this time!

"At least one big basket for each person! "

The porters' happiness is very simple. Now when they see Loki again, they no longer have the same mocking face as before. Even if they are five meters away and cannot see his figure clearly, they still kneel down respectfully and perform the most solemn kneeling ceremony in the empire.

He not only gave them life, but also gave them huge wealth that they rarely see in their lifetime.

The boss of the caravan "Mohammed Hash" and the clerk, as well as several backbones of the caravan did not participate in this carnival. They climbed up to the riverbed, looked in the vague direction of the sun, and respectfully lit the holy fire.

Five people knelt in a circle around the holy fire, raised their hands to the sky, and silently recited mysterious prayers composed of ancient Persian. Loki could understand some of the ordinary Arabic, but he could not understand a word of the ancient Persian used in the Zoroastrian prayers.

Fortunately, this short prayer did not last long.

About an hour later, when the sun set and the sky and the earth returned to darkness again.

The porters of the caravan have collected all the valuable goods. Nearly 300 carriages were reduced to 100. But even so, 50 caravan brothers had to look after 2 carriages on average.

They imitated the "Hengcheng" and connected all the carriages with iron chains. When they were on the road, 2 people were arranged to patrol every 20 meters.

If there were enough horses and all the members were on horseback, they could reach Memphis in 2 days at the fastest and 3 days at the longest.

On the road again, another problem began to appear in front of old Hash. There was another group of Donglu people in the city waiting for the "New Moon Chamber of Commerce" to transport the robbed goods into the city.

Now, their team of "small horses pulling big carts" was too suspicious.

**

"You can't hide!"

In the luxurious plow pulled by eight horses, old man Hash and the backbones of the caravan sat cross-legged on the soft Persian carpet, discussing the next countermeasures.

"As for cheating, we don't even need to consider it!"

"I've been doing this for my whole life. Not to mention people, even the rats walking on the sand mouth know what kind of strength I have. When everyone knows each other well, we can't cheat anyone."

"So, after entering the city, this is what I think"

Hash took out the map and was about to explain his plan in detail, when suddenly two dull knocks came from the big wooden box behind him.

When the bearded men around him looked at each other in bewilderment, Loki was the first to identify the source of the sound from the noisy horse hooves and wind and sand. The dull knocks came from under the neatly folded blanket at the back of the plow.

When he opened the blanket, he saw a big wooden box. In the center of the wooden box, the "All-Seeing Eye" belonging to the Illuminati was carved vividly.

When the wooden box was opened

As expected.

In it, there was a girl tied up with fine iron chains!
