"Too easy, I can take on three of them!"
She had intended to fight ten people, but apart from Teacher Aman and her sister, Sasha had never fought with anyone else.
Lacking a bit of confidence, they changed their tune at the last minute.
"You want to fight three people at once?"
The uncle's eyes lit up; he was starting to have high hopes for Sasha.
"Yeah, one against three, you don't have to take responsibility if you hurt me."
Soon, three men surrounded Sasha, wielding wooden sticks.
At the sound of "Start," they attacked the girl from three directions.
As if she had eyes in the back of her head, Sasha first used her sword sheath to poke the burly man's hand behind her.
Then the front, and finally the right side.
The girl's movements were fluid and graceful, a pleasure to watch.
But the men's cries of pain were not fake; their wrists were swollen high, and wooden sticks lay scattered on the ground.
Not only was the uncle dumbfounded, but Sasha was also shocked.
How can it be so weak?
If I really had the urge to kill them, slaughtering them would be easier than slaughtering chickens.
At that moment, the girl truly felt the gap between herself and ordinary people.
................................................
"A good teacher produces outstanding students!"
I couldn't think of Sasha's grand full name for a moment, and I didn't want to call her Er Ya.
The uncle laughed and said, "Young master, how about ten silver coins as a reward for escorting us all the way to Luowa Town?"
An ordinary guard would earn two silver coins for a trip, but he immediately offered five times that price.
"Is it included with meals?"
"Food is included! There's meat every day, and I can even get you some alcohol if you'd like."
"As long as there's meat, that's good. As long as there's meat, that's good."
Sasha beamed. "Wow, ten silver coins? My dad didn't even earn that much delivering firewood all winter!"
"We'll be setting off in three days, and we'll meet here right at dawn."
"Oh!"
I ran home in a flash, but Teacher Aman and my sister hadn't returned yet.
Sasha couldn't contain her excitement and paced back and forth in the room.
Finally, they simply ran to the cemetery outside the town.
"Dad, your daughter can earn money now."
"I got a job escorting a caravan. Ten silver coins for each trip, pretty good, right?"
After silently pouring out her heart in front of the tombstone, Sasha suddenly felt a little empty inside.
No matter how successful I become, my father lying down below won't be able to see it.
'well'
I walked home slowly, and my sister had already cooked dinner.
Why are you so late coming back?
After a pause, Lachesis whispered, "Didn't they like you?"
"No way, the manager paid me ten silver coins to hire me!"
"I just went to see Dad..."
Sasha pondered for a moment and said, "Sister, I feel it's not right for Dad to lie alone in the cemetery outside town. When can we move Mom's grave here too, so Dad and Mom can be together?"
"makes sense"
Lachesis nodded: "Leave this to me, don't worry."
"kindness"
.........................................
Three days later, after getting up early and drinking the hot porridge her sister had cooked, Sasha solemnly said goodbye to her two family members and set off.
"Little Master!"
It was that strange title again. The manager waved to the girl from afar.
"Are you ready? We're about to set off."
"it is good!"
Wealthy merchants who are in a hurry will have all their horses ready, while small and medium-sized caravans will only have a few old horses for hauling goods.
Whether guards or those in charge, they all walked.
"Uncle"
Sasha pulled the manager to the back and asked, "Don't we have too few guards?"
There were only four people in the group carrying swords, including myself—fewer than horses!
With such a small armed force, Sasha was quite uneasy.
"That's quite a lot, thirteen in total."
"Normally, we only have ten guards when delivering goods to Luowa Town, so this trip is considered an over-allocation."
The girl was stunned for a moment before asking, puzzled, "Where did these thirteen guards come from? Where are the rest hiding?"
"Hahaha"
"Young Master, you're worth ten of them all. Add the other three, and that makes thirteen guards!"
"..."
"This works?"
“Okay, okay”
The uncle chuckled and said, "I've traveled this trade route to Luowa Town countless times; it's perfectly safe."
"I only remember encountering bandits twice. They saw that there were quite a few of me, but in the end, there was no conflict. They gave me some money and let me go."
Why did you pay?
Sasha was utterly puzzled: "Tell the guards to chase them away!"
"Oh, my little master, harmony is the most important thing in business."
"Why resort to violence when a little money can solve the problem?"
After a few words, the uncle realized that Sasha was a bit of a simpleton, so he decided to make things clear.
"Besides, it's just two silver coins. If you come up here and ask someone to fight the bandits to the death, who would be willing?"
..................................................
Let's go, let's go.
They were either traveling, eating, or sleeping around the goods at night.
After a few days, Sasha started to feel bored.
"Uncle, how much longer do we have to walk?"
About a month.
Seeing that the girl was listless, the uncle shook his head: "Young master, you are lively and may not be suitable for escort jobs."
"But since we've already taken on this job, we can't back out halfway through!"
"Don't worry, I keep my word."
With more than a month to go, Sasha didn't want to waste it on the road.
And then, a bizarre scene unfolded.
Blindfolded with a long strip of black cloth, the girl placed her hand on the hilt of a sword and occasionally drew the sword to slash at the air.
"What are you doing?!"
"Practice swordsmanship, using Teacher Aman as your imaginary opponent."
Swords can be practiced like this?
Even more amazingly, the girl walked without falling down despite having her eyes covered by a black cloth.
The others in the group were all amazed, but since it wouldn't delay their journey, they simply ignored her.
Volume 1: Chapter 623 The Forty Thieves
The caravan had traveled most of the way safely, but their good luck had run out.
A dozen or so bandits, looking pale and emaciated, armed with shovels, wooden sticks, and wood-chopping axes, blocked the only way.
"Who's in charge?"
The middle-aged man stepped forward with a stern face: "Heroes..."
"Enough with the nonsense, hand over everything of value!"
Upon seeing that only four people in the group carried swords, one of whom was a blind girl, the bandit leader raised his voice considerably.
"Good sir, the goods we're transporting are worth a little money. But even if we give them to you, you have no way to sell them, so they're useless to you."
The uncle said with a friendly face, "In business, harmony is the most important thing. I also know that these heroes have had a tough time."
"How about this, do you think this toll fee is enough?"
