GOR Chapter 416 Enemies Often Cross Paths (Part 1)
"Oh?" Du Wei was surprised.
Next, he knitted his brows and stood up. "Take me to the leader of this caravan!"
Toya breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "Sir, our Desert Fox Mercenary Guild is a registered mercenary guild in the Desa Province. Additionally, we pay our taxes on time and are absolutely loyal to the Tulip Family! This matter, regardless of what kind of conspiracy there may be, has nothing to do with us! "
Du Wei smiled and patted the nervous man. "Don't worry, I know that you are just bodyguards. You don't know what is going on."
After receiving the comfort from this' VIP from the Tulip Family ', Toya finally felt at ease. He accompanied Du Wei and Qiao Qiao out of the tent and whispered, "Sir, do you want me to summon some men here to take control of the leader of this caravan?"
Du Wei smiled and replied, "No need."
Toya laughed dryly and turned to look at Qiao Qiao who was standing beside him with an indifferent expression – with such an expert around, why would he need the help of his men?
The leader of the caravan stayed in a separate tent. Additionally, when the men outside saw Du Wei and Toya, they dared not stop them. Du Wei had Toya wait outside while he and Qiao Qiao walked in.
The leader of the caravan was a middle-aged man in his forties. He had curly brown hair and a flat nose. It would appear that he was a Roland man with the bloodline of the prairie people – such people were common in the border areas.
Seeing Du Wei enter, the leader of the caravan was shocked. Then, a smile appeared on his face. "Ah! So it is the honorable Mr Harry Potter, I … "
With a calm expression, Du Wei directly walked into the tent and sat down. Looking at the leader of the caravan, he calmly asked: "Sir, I have a question for you. Please answer me honestly …. Do you have a letter with you?"
Hearing this, the leader of the caravan instantly changed his expression. He took a step back and subconsciously reached for the scimitar on his waist. In the border area, many people were used to wearing scimitars like the ones used by the prairie people.
However, when he saw Jojo's cold gaze, the leader of the caravan immediately broke out in cold sweat – after witnessing Jojo's strength, he knew that he was no match for this female warrior. Therefore, his hand touched the hilt of the saber, but he put it down again. She only stared at Du Wei nervously. "Sir, this is my private matter. Please don't ask! Otherwise, it might not be beneficial to you! "
Du Wei smiled, he looked at the leader of the caravan and said, "Oh?"
"That is right!" The leader of the caravan calmed himself down and gritted his teeth. "Sir, although I'm very surprised by the strength that you and this beautiful lady have shown, and I can tell that you have a strong northwestern accent from your accent, I can tell that you have a strong northwestern accent! I believe that the two of you must also be from the northwest! Thus, I advise the two of you not to ask about this matter! Regardless of what you have heard or seen, please bury it deep within your heart! I'll remember your kindness in saving my life tonight. I'll pretend I didn't hear what you said just now … Otherwise, although you two have outstanding strength, but in the northwest … there are still some things and some people that you'd better not provoke! "
Although his words were both soft and hard, there was no lack of sincerity in his tone. When it came to saving his life earlier, Du Wei could see the sincerity in the leader's eyes.
Du Wei's heart suddenly skipped a beat as he recalled something. The cold smile on his face turned warmer. He looked into the eyes of the leader of the caravan and asked, "Are you working for the Tulip Family?"
"You!" The leader of the caravan's face changed. Suddenly, his eyes flashed with a trace of desperation. He gritted his teeth and pulled out his scimitar. At the same time, his other hand reached into his bosom …
"Don't be hasty!" Du Wei smiled. He reached into his bosom and pulled out a golden badge. He waved it in front of the leader's face. "You should recognize this right?"
The leader of the caravan was stunned. He carefully looked at the item in Du Wei's hand and could not help but tremble. He suddenly blurted out, "A golden badge?! Ah! You are from the Tulip Family?! "
He no longer hesitated and quickly knelt down on one knee. "Sir, please forgive my presumptuous behavior. I did not know your identity …"
The badge in Du Wei's hand had a unique design. There was a pattern of a flaming tulip engraved on it. This was the symbol of the Tulip Family's status. In order to prevent counterfeiting and forgery, there was a special set of numbers on each badge. This set of numbers was specially made up by Du Wei in Arabic. Outsiders would never know what it meant.
These badges, ranging from black iron badges to the highest grade gold badges, all belonged to a group of secret personnel that Captain Alpha had been in charge of in the grassland. They specialized in instigating a rebellion on the grassland.
The leader of the caravan was naturally a spy who was responsible for traveling between the prairie and serving the Tulip Family.
Seeing Du Wei pull out the golden badge, the leader of the caravan was relieved after verifying the authenticity of the badge. His attitude became even more respectful. "So it is … My Lord."
He did not know how to address Du Wei, but to be able to hold a golden badge, he must be someone of high status in the Tulip Family. It would not be an exaggeration to call him 'My Lord'.
After all, according to legend, the only one who could hold a golden badge was their supreme leader, His Excellency Alpha. The other one was said to be the Duke's most trusted aide, Mr. Philip. No one else was known to hold such a badge.
However, the leader of the caravan would never associate him with the Duke of the Tulip Family. After all, no one would have thought that the busy Duke would suddenly come to the desert.
Subsequently, the leader of the caravan explained his identity. He was Alpha's subordinate and was in charge of traveling between the Empire and the prairie. Under the cover of the leader of the caravan, he was in charge of scouting out the movements of the various tribes in the prairie. At the same time, he was also in charge of delivering letters and information.
Without waiting for Du Wei to ask, the leader of the caravan took the initiative to take out a secret letter hidden in his clothes and handed it to Du Wei. The letter was sealed with wax and had not been opened. "This is my mission. Give this letter to Patriarch Saladin."
However, Du Wei only glanced at it and did not take it. He directly said: "Keep it well."
He did not need to look at it to know that he would not be able to understand the contents of the letter.
Because of Du Wei's' creativity ', he had already ordered that all correspondence with Saladin in the prairie must not be written in the normal way. All correspondence must be written in a' password '.
Du Wei's invention of this password came from his knowledge from his previous life. The contents of the correspondence were composed of some strange numbers. Even if an outsider saw these numbers, they would not understand what it meant. Only the person himself would know.
When Saladin received the letter, he would take out a book that he carried with him. According to the numbers on the secret letter, he would open the book to which page, which line, which word, etc. Finally, he would be able to restore the original content of the letter.
This method of confidentiality was currently not available on the Roland Continent. It could be said that it was Du Wei's original method that was ahead of this era.
The 'password book' that Du Wei and Saladin agreed upon was not any other book. It was the most common book on the Roland Continent, the 'Scripture' of the Holy Shrines. If the believers of the Church of Light knew that Du Wei actually used the 'Scripture' as a password book, they would definitely accuse Du Wei of being disrespectful to God.
Du Wei did not carry the 'Scripture' with him. Therefore, even if he opened the letter, he would not be able to understand the contents. Anyway, since he had confirmed that the leader of the caravan was one of them, he had achieved his goal.
Then Du Wei reminded this guy that he only needed to complete his task.
However … there was actually a group of horse bandits who knew to come and snatch this letter.
Could it be that the other tribes on the prairie already knew that he was secretly colluding with Saladin?
Thinking back to the confession of the captives, this group of horse bandits had secretly contacted some tribes on the prairie … it seemed that the other tribes on the prairie were now ready to make a move.
Hmph!
Du Wei sneered. When he turned to the leader of the caravan, his expression calmed down. "You better be careful. Your identity should have been exposed. Because tonight's horse bandits came for the letter on you. Therefore, I'm afraid that you will encounter some danger along the way. "
The leader of the caravan looked stern. His expression was filled with determination. With a dignified tone, he slowly said, "My Lord, my life was saved by Lord Alpha. I have already pledged my loyalty to the family. Even if I unfortunately sacrifice my life for the family, the family will take care of my wife and daughter. Therefore, I am not afraid of death. "
