After beating the fat man Baum to a cripple, a large number of onlookers had gathered outside the house at this time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
After seeing Zhou Ming's house, Baum, who was beaten into a dead dog, screamed and ran quickly towards the housekeeper Bunod's residence.
The man shouted as he ran: "Oh no, Ryan beat Master Baum to death, Master Bunod, Ryan killed Master Baum!"
It was clear that this man was a servant of the butler Burnod's house.
"Alice, go pack your things, let's go!"
Zhou Ming decided to run away, although his original plan was to wait for Edward to become the lord, and then he would leave with Donnie and Alice, but now that there is such an emergency, it is impossible not to run away in advance.
"Brother, are we really leaving?"
Alice was a little hesitant, she was still safe and happy in Gran, and suddenly, she was not ready to flee to a foreign land.
"Time is running out, let's go now!"
Zhou Ming quickly typed a package, put two pieces of clothes and some savings that had been accumulated for many years in it, and saw that Alice was still slowly packing up things, and shouted directly at her: "Don't take the miscellaneous things, just bring two clothes!"
After saying that, he stuffed the two clothes that Alice often wore into his package, and did not take the others, grabbed Alice's hand, grabbed the door and ran away.
……
Three or four miles away from Rose Town, on a path overgrown with weeds.
"Ryan, where are you and your sister going?"
A voice without the slightest temperature from behind made Zhou Ming's mood extremely cold.
It's over, it's completely over.
……
Inside the castle chamber.
Zhou Ming, who had a few horsewhips on his back and was bloodied, knelt at the feet of a young and noble man with his sister Alice.
"Say, why did you beat Baum like this?"
Edward pointed to Baum, who was lying on a plank on the ground, without a trace of human form, and said, this loyal servant who was devoted to serving himself was beaten like this, and he was angry, and he felt the urge to kill.
If it weren't for the sake of this kid in front of him, who saved his father's life, he would have ended this kid just after him on the way to hunt him down.
"Master Edward, when I came home just now, Baum was assaulting my sister, and I was so angry that I beat him up. Zhou Ming explained in a low voice.
"What kind of violation? It's clearly you, a lowly sister, who wants to climb the high branches of my son Baum!"
Bunord, the butler who was still short and fat with half silver hair, stepped forward and pointed at Alice and scolded angrily, and then threw himself on his son Baum's body and cried: "My poor son, I originally wanted to find an obedient maid for the respected young master Edward, but this lowly woman is unwilling to be just a maid, and wants to seduce you, a knight who will become a noble knight, she actually wants to be a knight's wife." ”
"You're spewing blood!"
Alice's face turned red with anger, and she pointed to Baum on the ground and said loudly: "He was the one who forced me to come to the castle to be a maid, and if I don't agree, he will insult me!"
"You lowly woman still dare to be hard-mouthed! I don't know how many women are honored to be the maid of Master Edward? You dare to say that you don't agree, Master Edward, this lowly woman is lying! Please give the most severe punishment to this lying woman!" said the butler Bunod.
"Enough!
Edward's face turned grim to stop Bunod's words, and he turned his head and asked a tall knight beside him, "Knight Harold, according to the territorial decree, what punishment should these two people give?"
Harold glanced at the two people below and said lightly: "According to the decree of the territory, if the crime of fleeing without permission and the following crimes are combined, they should be hanged in public, and the corpses should be hung on both sides of the road to warn others." ”
"Then hang yourself and take him out of the castle for execution. ”
Edward patted his somewhat swollen head, just wanting the two people kneeling below to disappear from his sight as soon as possible and completely!
"Young Master Edward, leave this matter to me, I am the best at hanging prisoners......
A tall and thin knight next to him stood up, rubbing his hands together with excitement on his face, his lizard-like yellow-brown pupils releasing an extremely eager light.
"Stop! No one is allowed to hurt Ryan!"
But little Downey with a short sword came over, pulled out the short sword and protected it in front of Zhou Ming and said, "As long as I, Donnie are here, no one is allowed to hurt them!"
"Dear Edward, let these poor siblings go, and besides, Lane saved your father's life, so are you going to hang your father's savior?" said Lady Madeleine, dressed in a wide dress, and said to Edward in a serious voice.
"My dear mother, my squire Baum has been beaten like this, what do you think I should do?" Edward yelled at Madame Madeleine, red-eyed.
"Edward, don't you know who Baum is? let the two brothers and sisters go, let them leave the Gran Territory, let them go to the outside world, there are so many farmers in the Gran Territory, not to be inferior to the two of them. Madame Madeleine stepped forward and persuaded her.
"Mom, let me go with me! I can't stay in this castle anymore, I'll go with Ryan and them!"
The more Downey Jr. thought about it, the more angry he became, Alice was the woman he liked, but his brother Edward wanted Alice to be her maid, and even his attendant, Fat Baum, dared to bully and insult her, could it be that there was nothing in this huge Grand Collar that belonged to him?
"Get out! Get out of here, get out of here, get away, I don't want to see you again!"
Edward waved his hand angrily and left the council chamber with his sword in hand.
……
Two days later.
On the fifth floor of the castle, inside Downey Jr.'s room.
"Are you sure you really want to do this, Master Donnie?" Zhou Ming asked as he looked at Donnie who was packing his luggage.
"Pretty sure!"
Donnie nodded, carefully put a letter written by his mother in the package, looked up and said to Zhou Ming: "This is a letter from my mother to a countess in the royal capital, my mother and the countess are cousins who have a very good relationship, with this letter, when we arrive in the royal capital, we will not be afraid that there will be no place to stay!
Donnie's face was full of anticipation, at the age of eighteen, he hadn't left the Gran Collar much, and he hadn't seen much of the outside world, this time, he finally got his wish.
"But without the Grand Collar, you'll probably never come back. Zhou Ming asked a heavy question.
"What does it matter, sooner or later there will be such a day, isn't it? Now it's just a little bit earlier, besides, don't I still have a good friend like you, and Alice, I can be with her every day in the future!" Donnie's face showed a maturity that was rarely seen in the past, and when it came to Alice, he was even more elated.
"It's good if you're happy......"
Zhou Ming's thoughts in his heart are not consistent with Donnie's, and he is not sure if they can be together in the future, he will not always be a servant, anyway, last night, he had already done a good job of the secret code in the secret camp, with the current season, wait for three or five days at most, and those people will follow the code and find themselves......
After the last package was packed, Donnie carried it with his hand, and it felt quite heavy, so he asked Zhou Ming to carry it for him and told him to put it in the carriage at the gate of the castle.
Downey Jr. himself had to go upstairs to see his father one last time and say goodbye to his father, Baron Connor.
The entrance to the castle.
After Zhou Ming put the last package belonging to Downey into the carriage, he quietly leaned against the carriage and waited for Downey Jr. to come down.
There is an open square at the entrance of the castle, which is the place where knights often train, at this time, there are three knights walking side by side, after seeing Zhou Ming next to the carriage, the three of them looked at each other, one of them also whispered to the other two, after discussing, he walked towards Zhou Ming with a smile.
"Honorable knights, I don't know what is wrong with you?" Zhou Ming said in a low voice as he tried to avoid the playful eyes of the three of them.
"Boy, I heard that you are very good at spears, I want to try it with you, let's go to the training ground. ”
The tall and thin knight in the lead, with his hands on the carriage, looked down at Zhou Mingdao.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I still have to help Master Donnie pack his bags, and when I have time, I will ask you for advice. Zhou Ming turned to the carriage and made a gesture to pack his luggage.
"Honest boy! Vincent will hold him up for me, and Harold will cover this kid's mouth and don't let him scream!"
"Hey, hey!"
"Don't do that, knights...... Woohoo......"
The three knights forcibly carried Zhou Ming to the weapon training ground in the backyard of the castle like a kidnapping.
Bang!
As soon as the gate of the training ground was closed, there were only four knights and Zhou Ming left in this closed courtyard.
With a "stunned" sound, a simple spear fell at Zhou Ming's feet, and his mood fell to the bottom of the well in an instant.
And the three knights on the opposite side all put on heavy armor and took out heavy swords.
"Vincent, Harold, don't rob me two, I'll meet this kid first. ”
Among the three, the tall and thin knight in the lead said, the long sword in his hand played a sword flower.
"Henry, be careful, don't underestimate the enemy, this kid does have a spear. The Harold knight on the side reminded.
"Fernandi, that drunkard is innocent, I didn't drink today. ”
Knight Henry turned his head and smiled, his tongue licking his somewhat dry lips, and his yellow-brown pupils were full of tyrannical cold light.
He stomped on the ground twice, the nail leaf on his body rattled, and he walked towards Zhou Ming while playing with his sword and flowers: "Boy, hurry up and pick up the spear on the ground, the noble Knight Henry is about to attack." ”
"Henry, take it easy, don't kill this kid at once, I'll meet him later. Vincent next to him shouted.
"Don't worry, I'm measured. After Knight Henry finished speaking, a sword slashed towards Zhou Ming.
Zhou Ming had no choice but to lower his head and pick up the spear on the ground, dodge the attack, and bend down, trying to find some loopholes in the gap in Knight Henry's armor.
"Hah!"
Zhou Ming screamed, and the spear stabbed at Henry's eye like a poisonous snake.
"Oh~!Not bad, it's a little interesting. ”
Henry's head was tilted, and he easily dodged this lightning attack.
"Drink!" Zhou Ming roared and stabbed a spear, which was easily dodged again.
More than a dozen rounds passed, and Henry let Zhou Ming attack more than a dozen times, all of which were leisurely and quickly dodged.
"Boy, you're tired, it's time to change me. ”
After playing Zhou Ming more than a dozen times, seeing that his footsteps became a little sluggish, Henry smiled evilly at the corner of his mouth, played a sword flower, and suddenly slashed at Zhou Ming's head.
"Danger!"
Looking at the flickering sword light, Zhou Ming rolled to the ground, but he was able to avoid this attack, and was about to flash to a safe place, but the opponent's attack stuck up like a maggot on the tarsal bone.
So many times, the other party always waited for Zhou Ming to get up in embarrassment, and then slashed at the head with another sword.
"Hahahaha, hide, hide for me, see where you still have to hide......"
Henry is like a cat playing with a mouse, no matter where Zhou Ming flashes, his long sword can follow there, until Zhou Ming is forced into a corner where there is no way to retreat.
Another long sword fell, Zhou Ming held the spear to meet it, rubbed the ground, the wooden spear broke in response, Zhou Ming blocked again, and the half of the wooden pole in his hand was broken in half, until he was defenseless, and he had shrunk in a dead corner with no way to escape, facing the long sword, he could only close his eyes and feel the arrival of death.
However......
The expected pain did not come, but on the right side of his chest, he was pressed against a sharp sword.
"Knight, you've won. Zhou Ming looked at the sword path on his chest.
"yes, I won, why didn't I feel it?" Henry muttered as he added a little strength to his hand.
"Yes, Lord Knight, you won, you won! Zhou Ming snorted, feeling that the blade of the sword had cut through the skin and hit the ribs, and the cut flesh was bleeding profusely.
"Let you go, beg me, beg me quickly, maybe the knight will let you go as soon as I am happy?"
Henry's palm slapped the hilt of his sword, and with a playful face, he stabbed the sword deeper.
"Ahh
"It's not enough, it's not enough, beg and beg again! If the voice is louder, I can't hear it, uncle!"
Heng plucked out his ears with his hand, and then began to turn the hilt of the sword in his hand, turning left and then right.
"Knight, let me go!!"
Zhou Ming's face was full of sweat droplets, and the pain like scratching his heart and bones made him hold the sharp sword body with his bare hands, and pulled it out forcefully, and after a while, a large amount of blood oozed out of the cut palm.
"That's pretty much it, Henry, stop torturing this kid, give him a good time, or let him go. The Knight Vincent on the side persuaded.
"No, no, no......"
Henry shook his head and added a little more strength to his hand!"It's too cheap to give him a good time, I'll have to play slowly for a while...... What did you just say, boy? I didn't hear you clearly, you say it again, say it again. ”
"Let me go! Let me go!!" Zhou Ming burst into tears, screaming heartbreakingly, but his right hand was quietly placed behind him.
"I didn't hear it! Say it again, say it again!"
"I told you to let me go!!"
Zhou Ming roared angrily, holding the left hand of the sword blade, suddenly reversed the force, the sword body was deeply inserted into his body, and his right hand suddenly took out a dagger from behind his back, and at the moment when Henry lost his balance and his body fell to himself, the dagger was forcefully inserted into his eye socket.
"Ah!!h
Knight Henry, covering his eyes, lay on the ground and rolled wildly, letting out a terrible howl.
