Chapter 243: An Unexpected Deceased
But now, he was about to die in this unknown bar, turned into a pile of black char under the scorching fire, but only the flickering light of the fire was reflected in his eyes, revealing a deep despair and unwillingness.
When Philip saw Paul again at the Lion Castle, he was covered in gauze and sat there with glazed eyes.
The whole person looked like he was dead, lifeless.
"Our people went to his house, but they were too late. ”
Chand kindly explained a few words for him, and when Philip looked at him, he stood aside silently and said no more.
"Just let him rest here, send two brothers to take care of the point, and don't let him do anything stupid. His place is up to you for the time being, do a good job. As he walked out the door, Philip whispered to Chand.
The smile on the corner of Qian De's mouth flashed, and he raised his chest and saluted his chest, with a resolute face: "Please rest assured, young master." ”
Philip looked at him a few more times before nodding in satisfaction and commanding, "Take me to the man." ”
The two came to the basement of the castle, saying that it was a basement, but in fact it was a private prison, which would be under almost every castle, and the difference was only a matter of utilization.
The Lion Castle is good, at least Brad's personality likes to be above board, and Philip has only opened it twice over the years.
When Philip saw the man in shackles and handcuffs made of special materials, locked inside, even with his big heart, he couldn't help but beat wildly a few times.
His gray and mottled hair and black eyes, his old face and his unusually familiar face, except that he stood up so fast that he couldn't tell whether the person in front of him was real or fake.
Barton, the chief steward of the Castle of the Wild Lion, the most trusted person of Grandpa Earl Brad, is not one of them.
At the same time, he understood why Paul did not die, and why the female assassin who had become Yun'er dared to break into the castle alone without considering any way out.
He stood outside his cell, staring at 'Patton' through the thick steel fence, and asked in a cold voice, "You want to see me?"
'Barton' held the fence with both hands, looked at the murderous teenager outside, and recalled the past scenes of a few years ago, full of emotion.
"I want to see Lin Yun, the real Lin Yun, I know she's hurt. There was no blemish in the old voice.
Philip's eyes widened instantly, and he glared at the other party and asked, "What do you want to do?"
'Barton' looked at Philip calmly and said, "I haven't seen you for a few years, you have changed too much. ”
Philip carefully discerned all the information on that face, trying to find even a trace of the old man, but unfortunately he failed.
"Who the hell are you?"
'Barton' stared into Philip's eyes and said, "Do you remember that piece of raw leopard meat you ate that night?"
Philip stirred up, the cold hairs from his toes to the top of his head stood on end, and he approached the fence and asked, word by word, "Murphy?"
'Barton' didn't speak, just nodded slightly, and didn't continue to greet him, but directly asked: "I'll tell you everything, help you find Lady Maya, and after saving Lin Yun, you let us go." ”
"You guys?"
"Me and Alessandra, if it weren't for her stubbornness, I would have taken her with me a long time ago. ”
Philip's mind was racing, and it took him a moment to figure out what was going on.
"When did you become the pretender, aren't they all women?"
Murphy didn't answer, still the same sentence: "If you agree, I'll tell you everything." ”
"Aren't you afraid that I will regret it when I find out?"
"If it weren't for Alexandra, I wouldn't be coming back. If it weren't for Xiaoyun's injury, I wouldn't have thrown myself into the net. If it weren't for the two of them, I wouldn't see you again, and I wouldn't want to see you. ”
Although he did not answer directly, the meaning was clear, he trusted the two women, not Philip.
Time is precious now, the two women upstairs are still bleeding, not to mention the unknown toxin that may explode at any time, causing serious consequences.
Philip only thought about it for a moment, and then said to Chander: "Open the cell, you stand guard at the door, and no one is allowed to come in."
I said, anyone. ”
Without the slightest hesitation, Chand took out the key, opened the cell, and disappeared into the winding cavernous passage.
Philip entered the dark, cold cell and punched Murphy in the face, knocking him to the ground, followed by a second punch and a third punch.
After three punches, Murphy's old face was bruised and swollen, and the corners of his mouth were left with blood.
Philip grabbed him by the collar and said hatefully, "The first punch is for Edward and Rhoda outside the town of Fallen Horse, the second punch is for Catherine and Yun'er who are lying on the hospital bed at the moment, and the third punch is for the dead Grandma Bertha."
You know what? She watched me grow up, changed my first diaper, watched me say the first word of my life, wept with joy that I learned to walk, and couldn't sleep the whole night after my disappearance.
The woman who didn't cry in front of everyone even when her own son died on the battlefield hugged me and cried like a tearful person when I got home safe and sound.
But now, the woman was lying in a cold room, and it had taken the priest a long time to mend her broken finger.
Did you know!"
In the last sentence, Philip roared wildly, and even lifted Murphy's tall body into the air and pressed against the wall.
Tears welled up on the face of the sixteen-year-old boy, except for the lord's mansion a few years ago, this was the first time he had shown such a fragile and emotional side in front of outsiders.
Murphy wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Philip mockingly, and stopped crying with just one sentence.
"Why? Just because you're superior, and we're just half-breed bastards? Your people can't die, and even if we die, it's just an after-dinner conversation for you, and we'll even clap your hands.
That's how you see the world, isn't it? ”
Philip's eyes were filled with anger, and Murphy was not to be outdone, and the two men looked at each other like bullfights, nose to nose, and only heavy breathing could be heard from the small cell.
In the end, Murphy regained his composure first and said in a deep voice: "Take me to see Yun'er." After seeing it, you will naturally know everything. ”
Philip nodded and walked out of the cell.
The servants of the Lion Castle were amazed to see Patton' butler following Philip in heavy shackles, but with a look of arrogance on his face.
There was even a confused maid who subconsciously saluted and greeted, and it was not until she was pulled up by her partner next to her that she realized that she had done something stupid.
Not only them, but even Jane, who had been waiting in the ward, was stunned for a moment when she saw Murphy, and then her face turned pale.
Philip whispered a few words of explanation to his grandmother, and gave up his place in front of the bed to Murphy.
Murphy touched the little girl's face with his old hand, and the sadness and anxiety in his eyes could not be faked at all, and this kind of true expression made Philip on the side a little moved.
A quarter of an hour later, in a reception room at the Lion Castle, Philip unshackled him and poured him a pot of tea.
Murphy picked up the teacup and drank it very seriously, and the hot tea took half a day to swallow, as if it was still aftertaste.
"I'm afraid this is the first time in my life, and the last time I've drunk such good tea in such a luxurious castle. ”
Philip said, "If you like it, I'll give you some." ”
Murphy shook his head and continued, "It's still the bitter tea and mead from that mountain that are more suitable for me.
After Moody's death and the slaughter of the stockade, I fell into the valley where countless children were buried, and struggled for three days to survive.
Then it took two years to find out that Alexandra was being held in prison outside Gaokan City, and Lin Yun was living well, just as my sister and I expected back then.
But let alone breaking into the heavily guarded prison, I couldn't even cross the border, and the secret passage was blocked by your grandfather.
Even if I entered, such an obvious racial trait as mine might be able to survive in the inaccessible wilderness, but around a first-class military city like Gaokan City, there was no chance to take advantage of it. ”
