Chapter 265 Shelter
Just as Lu He was thinking, there was a sudden noise of curses at the entrance of the camp.
The voice interrupted the girl's humming, and the other people in the camp looked over in surprise.
It was Pavis, who came in with more than a dozen horse bandits covered with wounds and blood.
The horse bandits were chained together by an iron chain. The leader had a pale face and a sword wound deep enough to see the bone on his chest. He limped when he walked, and it was obvious that his leg was also injured.
Halimu looked at the group of horse bandits carefully and took a breath of cold air.
The captain of the guard next to him swallowed his saliva and looked at the horse bandits in the front, unable to move his eyes away.
"Why do I think they are black-clad horse bandits?" A middle-aged man who looked like a manager in the caravan muttered to himself.
"Black-clad horse bandits? Are they the horse bandits composed of notorious wanted criminals from several nearby countries?"
"It seems so. Look at the man in the front. He looks like the demon dog Engel. I saw him a few days ago!" A young guard thought it was Engel.
He had seen the bounty list in a bar in Hongguang City, and the demon dog Engel ranked very high on the list.
"He seems to be worth 800 gold coins?" asked a driver who remembered well beside the guard.
"The one behind is... I forgot his name, but his bounty is 600 gold coins!"
"I remember it seems to be 500 gold coins."
The guards looked at them one by one, and soon recognized all of them.
Basically, everyone was a frequent visitor on the bounty list, with bounties of varying amounts hanging on their heads.
And this information quickly spread throughout the caravan, and everyone gathered around to watch the excitement, pointing and counting the total bounties on the heads of these horse bandits.
In the end, the number of 4,000 to 5,000 gold coins was obtained, which immediately caused a burst of low exclamations.
This amount is more than the Jonas caravan can earn in a round trip to Hongguang City. It is the salary that an adult laborer can get in a factory for a lifetime.
"After encountering the Soros family, the black-clad horse bandits have been completely wiped out this time."
Halimu suddenly shook his head and sighed softly.
"Big Steward, the Soros family..." Aldo looked at the black-haired boy, and his heart moved slightly.
Lu He glanced at these horse bandits and frowned slightly.
The quality of the horse bandits was not good. There was not a single knight, and there were only three high-level knight attendants.
But it was normal to think about it. Unless the knights committed an unforgivable crime, they would not become bandits.
These horse bandits were very vicious. They might have seen that Lu He was the culprit who arrested them. In addition, they knew that they would definitely not survive, so they looked at Lu He with extremely vicious eyes.
"Wash it clean and take it to my laboratory." Lu He said lightly and turned to leave.
Eat first, and work after eating.
Pavis nodded, thinking of the adults' laboratory, he actually felt a little sympathy for these horse bandits.
On the other side, Nicole had prepared dinner, with a white tablecloth spread on the table.
There were jam bread, air-dried lamb, two bottles of black apple juice, and Lu He's favorite beef hot pot on it, and next to it were several side dishes that Nicole bought from the caravan.
Yueling and Helen sat quietly on one side of the table, opposite Yerrit, and the atmosphere between the three was a bit strange.
I don't know what happened.
The little maid Nicole sat on the small bench in the middle, her big sapphire eyes turning around the three people.
The faint moonlight projected through the leaves above and fell on the people, appearing mottled and fragmented.
】
A cute little animal that looked like a squirrel was lying at the foot of the dining table, with a yellow-brown body and furry fur, staring at the food on the table motionlessly, and its tail swaying back and forth.
Seeing Lu He coming over, Nicole quickly got up and brought him a chair and prepared tableware.
Lu He sat down on the chair, motioning Nicole to pour him a glass of wine, and then put the side dishes into the hot pot.
Ignoring the dispute between the three people, there were too many things between women, and Lu He couldn't handle it.
Even if they fought, he didn't want to intervene, as long as no one died, because he could now cure everything from minor injuries to major injuries with missing limbs.
Lu He tasted a mouthful of hot pot, which was fragrant and spicy, and the taste was almost the same as in his memory, a familiar taste.
Unfortunately, there was no rice, so he could only eat this bread.
When the enjoyment of the food was coming to an end, Lu He heard a crisp call suddenly from behind him.
"Sir, excuse me."
Lu He turned around and saw the girl who was humming a song by the carriage just now, holding a bamboo basket in her hand, stopped not far behind him, and was stopped by Walter.
"What do you want?" Lu He waved his hand calmly, asking Walter to let the girl come over.
Kristin Xue walked to the dining table in small steps, lowered her head, and her face was slightly flushed.
She glanced at Lu He opposite.
The young man with a cold face was eating mutton jerky in small bites, and his speed had not changed since the beginning.
His face was calm and his movements were graceful. He tore off a piece and put it directly into his mouth without spilling any meat.
The tablecloth in front of him was clean, as if it had been thoroughly cleaned with a rag. There was not a single edible thing left.
This appetite is really terrifying...
Kristinxue thought. She had just been staring at this young man from a distance, watching him eat up the food on the table bit by bit.
"My lord, this is the guava fruit, a specialty of my hometown. I have washed it and give it to you."
The girl looked back at her parents, bit her lip, lowered her head, and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito.
Lu He nodded and said nothing.
"Thank you, little sister." Nicole looked at the girl and took the bamboo basket from her hand.
Kristen Xue suddenly raised her head and looked at Lu He who ignored her, biting her lip and whispered:
"My Lord... I... I want to follow you, I hope you can give me a place to stay. My mother is in poor health and can't go on like this."
"As long as you can protect our family, I can do anything!!!" The girl's voice trembled.
Helen Yueling and the others all looked at the girl, with curiosity, sympathy, anger in their eyes...
Especially Yerrit, she glanced at the girl with a hint of disdain from the corner of her eyes.
She has been traveling around for many years, and has seen a lot of similar things, and she knows the girl's mind clearly.
Kristen Xue clenched her little hands tightly, trembling all over.
Father Aldo learned from Halimu that the young man in front of him was a top noble of the Crescent Empire and a truly powerful figure.
If they could get his protection, they would no longer have to run around and worry about the revenge of their enemies.
"So, how much do you think you are worth? What is worth my protection?"
Lu He glanced at the pure and lovely girl in front of him, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
