Chapter Seventy-Four: You Can't Keep It
As soon as the words fell, the closed door was slammed open, and under the exclamation of everyone, dozens of soldiers with muskets broke in, pointing their guns at Zheng Fei, ready to attack.
Zheng Fei's face gradually froze, and in the face of countless black holes and muzzles, countless pairs of cold pupils, he bit the skin of his mouth.
If only there was a high-explosive grenade, he thought, laughing self-deprecatingly, and dropping his gun.
Seeing this, Derak smiled and walked up to him a few steps, raised the tip of his sword against his chin, and said arrogantly, "Did you just want to kill me?"
"If you don't have so many helpers, you're dead. ”
"Are you challenging me? Heh, I appreciate your courage. Derak withdrew his sword and sneered, "But, do you think it's a warrior fight now?"
The atmosphere was dull, Zheng Fei silently stared at the arrogant guy in front of him, staring at his throat that was stirring because of his words, and he could crush the fragile Adam's apple with just one punch, but the consequence was that his body would be embedded by dozens of bullets.
"I'm not interested in taking on your challenge, and I don't have the time to rub shoulders with you. Derranke said, waving his hand for the soldiers to tie him up.
Zheng Fei didn't resist, he was calmly thinking about countermeasures.
You might as well go and sit in a prison cell, the precision prisons of the 21st century have loopholes, let alone medieval dungeons, there is always a way to escape from prison.
As soon as his hands were wrapped around the rope, he heard a noise outside, and after more than ten seconds, Hans broke into the door with several sailors, all of whom held spears in their hands without exception.
It's like a couple of brave little lambs crashing headlong into a wolf's den, a little confused.
Zheng Fei knew that his guys were not enough to plug their teeth, so he couldn't get them all in.
He rolled his eyes, frowned and thought for a moment, then smiled and gestured to the overwhelmed Hans, "Hey, are you here to kill me? ”
"Huh?" Hans looked at him stunned.
"You have also seen that the king himself ordered me to be captured, and if you kill me now, you will not live. Zheng Fei said very naturally, taking advantage of the fact that people's attention was on Hans and them, and squeezed his eyes meaningfully.
Hans was very clever, and immediately understood what he meant, clenched his fists, cursed angrily, and led the sailors out the door.
Seeing this group of uninvited guests leave, Derak sneered and said to Zheng Fei: "Your enemy, it seems that you have done a lot of evil, the king is right to arrest you." ”
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go. Zheng Fei didn't bother to raise his eyelids.
Frank triumphantly raised his sword, sheathed it, and beckoned the soldiers to escort him out.
At this time, there was an unexpected scene, Britney, who was as cold as ice, opened her arms and stood in front of them, looked at Zheng Fei with her beautiful eyes, and then looked at Derrank.
"Miss Britney, what are you doing here?" Derak raised an eyebrow in surprise.
"You can't take him with you, I have an agreement with him. ”
"Heh, I'd love to give you face"
"Beware of official positions. Britney interrupted coldly.
Derak licked his lips and said, "Threat? It's a bit interesting, yes, your father, Duke Santos, is very powerful and important in Lisbon, but this arrest warrant was personally issued by the king, this yellow-skinned boy, you can't keep it." ”
With that, Derak dusted his shoulders disdainfully and walked out of the door.
Britney stood in place, slowly, a hint of resentment between her brows.
When Zheng Fei was escorted out of the castle, Hans and the little boy Columbus hid on the corner and watched as he was loaded into a carriage and driven down the street.
"Where are they going?" asked Hans, more like talking to himself.
"The only prison in Lisbon where hundreds of prisoners are housed. Little Columbus pinched the roasted sausage in his hand, thought for a moment and said, "He is a good man, we have to save him." ”
"Nonsense, he's our captain! The question is how to save these people?"
"Follow me. Little Columbus ran into the alley.
Looking at this little back, Hans was in a trance, what can a child do?
"Guys keep up, it's better to try than not to try. He said.
Zheng Fei sat in the carriage, and through the curtain, he could see people standing on the street, pointing to the carriage and whispering, both curious and worried.
In Lisbon, it is rare to use such a large position to arrest a person, the last one was a few decades ago, the capture of the Western European thief Francis, that guy is Grant's idol, with a ruthless personality and vicious methods, and once killed the Marquis of Turan's family during the theft, which made the entire Lisbon city panic for a while.
"Can you let me have a drink?" Zheng Fei yawned and said to the soldier beside him with a dagger against him.
"Less nonsense!" the soldier rebuked angrily.
"I am already a person who is going to be deprived of my freedom, and God will thank you for fulfilling my little wish. ”
"Alas. The soldier sighed, "I can't help you, and if I could afford to buy wine, I wouldn't do this chore." ”
"Hmm, you're short of money?"
"Hehe, I guess you've just arrived in Lisbon, in this city, almost all the money is concentrated in the hands of the rich, and it's good for the common people to be fed, so many people are trying to make money and save up to buy a small boat to go to sea to fish, so that at least there is seafood to eat and not go hungry. ”
Zheng Feiyu's eyebrows were raised slightly, and his hand reached into his pocket.
"Don't move!" the soldier warned.
"Shhhhhh So saying, he took out a gold ring set with rubies.
Before the army came, to be on the safe side, he picked out a few smaller pieces of jewelry from the cloth bag and hid them in a close place, just in case.
Now that the bag is in the hands of Derrank, it will soon appear before the eyes of the King of Portugal.
Well, don't you use it now?
He smiled, handed the ring to the soldier, and said, "This ring is worth at least a few hundred silver coins, for you." ”
"Eh, why?" There was a hint of timidity in the soldier's greedy gaze, he had never thought that he would be able to run into such a big pie, and he didn't dare to take it.
"Don't worry, I don't want you to do anything, just answer me a few questions. ”
"You say. ”
"Where are your chiefs going to take me?"
"A prison, of course, and the king may interrogate you personally. ”
"How long will I be locked up?"
Hearing this, the soldier pondered for a while, shook his head, and said, "Judging by my experience, you will be hanged. ”
"How long will I live before I am hanged?"
"Usually for a month, you will receive the prayer of the pastor, holy baptism"
"Well, needless to say. Zheng Fei took a deep breath solemnly, and after stuffing the ring into him, he fell into deep thought.
