Chapter 139: A rich copper coin is also rich
When the evening sunset appeared in the sky, Chu pulled out his long sword from a giant lion.
A panic and tragic wailing in the group of beasts, they finally had the intention to retreat, and their king was killed.
The herd of beasts that came from the tide retreated like the tide for a short period of time.
When they left completely, only corpses and blood were left outside the city of Heskama.
The autumn wind blew on his face a little cold, which made the people who were still fighting on the city wall wake up from their trance.
They looked into the distance, facing the sunset, and saw the black figure standing, stepping on the beast king's body, holding a long sword, and facing the red sunlight.
"Ah!!" A soldier raised his spear and roared red. In this war with the beasts, they won.
"Ah!!!" People raised their weapons and roared together.
They vented in the most primitive way, just like when humans drove away wild animals at the most primitive time.
"Ha, cough, hoho."
Xiskama coughed and sat down beside the wall. He raised his head to face the afterglow that was about to fall, his lips curled up slightly, and a chuckle came out.
Mann stood beside him, pale and was about to say something, but he caught a glimpse of a corpse at the corner of his eyes. Finally, he could no longer help but turn his head and vomit.
"vomit!"
Xiskama turned her head tiredly, looked at Mann's vomiting look and smiled.
"Child, if you want to travel to the mainland, this won't work."
Mann felt that he was about to vomit his stomach, but the city lord was still talking sarcastic words next to him.
He raised one of his hands with a dark face, his mouth twitched, and said weakly.
"I know."
"But you are brave." Xiskama smiled and turned around: "I can't do anything like you when I was as old as you."
At that time, he wanted to escape from this battlefield countless times, let alone come on his own initiative.
"And," he said, lowering his eyes and looking at the figure under the city wall: "You have a good companion."
Mann gasped, looked along his sight, and saw Chu standing there. He looked for a while, raised his eyebrows, and said softly with a faint smile.
"I know, too."

Before she first returned to the city wall, she thought people would fear her again, just like the team of soldiers she rescued on the way she came.
But when she returned to the city wall, she found that this was not the case. People looked at her with kindness, respect and gratitude.
This made her feel a little at a loss, and she was rarely seen by people with such eyes.
Fortunately, before she felt embarrassed, Xiskama relieved her. He asked everyone to scatter and prepare for each other. Tonight, the city will hold a banquet.
People dispersed with smiles, and at first he felt relieved.
······
At night, the fire illuminated the city, and bonfires were lit everywhere on the streets. The soldiers of Heskama, soldiers of the Kingdom, hired adventurers, civilians sat together, ate hearty food, and enjoyed a celebration night together.
People drink with big wine glasses made of wooden barrels. Of course, the soldiers of Xiskama cannot drink, and they also need to be responsible for the last period of guarding.
The bard named Matt sat next to the campfire and sang, and this time his singing was no longer so sad, but with some briskness.
Someone asked him if he would leave later, but he still said he would, but this time he was not going to escape. He was going to sing a legend and sang it to every corner of the mainland to repay a kindness.
The adventurers held the wine glasses and drank their faces flushed, bragging about their past adventures to the people around them. This time, the employment was a great reward for them. Not only did they get a ten gold coins employment fee, but they also added new capital to brag in the future.
She was still sitting in the corner at first, and she didn't like lively occasions, or she was just a little uncomfortable with it.
She sat for a while, and Mann came over from the side, holding a bag in his hand. When he saw the first, he smiled and shook it.
The sound in the bag jingled, and you don’t have to look at the first glance to know what was inside.
Mann sat next to Chu with a smile and opened the bag.
"The city lord named Xiskama is quite generous, because you, he gave us ten more gold coins. He said that although it is not enough to express his gratitude to you, he still hopes we will accept it."
"Yeah." Chu replied lightly, obviously she didn't care much about the amount of gold coins.
Mann counted out ten gold coins from his purse, took out two large silver coins and put them in another bag, and handed them to Chu: "This is your share, as we agreed, divide it equally."
He took a first look at the gold coins handed over by Mann, paused for a moment, and shook his head.
"You can take it, I can't use these."
"I can always use it." Mann raised the coins in his hand and said incomprehensiblely: "This is gold, even in your world, it should be circulating?"
He glanced at Mann for the first time and replied in an incomprehensible tone, as if he was helpless, or as if he was just a random answer.
"My world does not circulate these, and I cannot take anything from this world except your evil."
Mann was stunned for a moment, then he raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"My evil means that the more greedy I am, the more you can get."
He held the gold coins, his eyes shining, as if he wanted to take it alone.
"Yes." Chu nodded quietly and turned his gaze.
But then, her hand sank, and Mann stuffed the gold coin bag into her.
"But this belongs to you." Mann said with a serious look at Chu, with a smile on his lips.
"Although I am greedy, I have to pay attention to integrity when doing business. Whether you use it or not, they belong to you."
Chu held the coins for a while, smiled helplessly and hung them around his waist.
"But if we share it equally, how can you become the richest person?"
"Don't worry." Mann took out a copper coin from his pocket and shook it at Chu.
"I will always be richer than you."
This was the money he earned from the little girl who was about to starve to death on their way, a local potato and a copper coin.
"I earned it myself, and I can't share it with you." Mann said proudly with the copper coin.
At first, he was amused by him, but the laughter from evil was still hoarse, but it was no longer so difficult to hear: "How do you divide a copper coin?"
This is already the minimum denomination currency, can you still break it in half?
The celebration banquet was coming, and the messenger sat with the boy, looking at the people celebrating victory, chatting with a smile.
"Speaking of this, you look so handsome in the beast group today. When will you teach me both ways?"
"You can't learn it."
"Tsk, stingy."
"hehe."
