Chapter 191: Wind and Snow Castle
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it has been ten times when flowers have bloomed and fallen, and nine times when the snow has melted. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
More than nine years have passed in a hurry, and now it is the winter of the year 649 of the Earth Age.
The goose-feather snow has been drifting non-stop for days, and the thick snow is knee-deep, and the whole land is covered in silver. The cold wind was howling, and the cold wind was like a knife, sweeping through this very remote small town. The town is more than 100 kilometers away from the nearest city, and the traffic is inconvenient and the roads are difficult, so it can't help but be closed to information, and even the folk customs are incompatible with the modern city, as if it was still in ancient times a hundred or two hundred years ago.
Two men who resembled farmers and hunters, carrying tools and withstanding the wind and snow, made their way through the thick snow, and despite wearing extremely warm fur coats, the tips of their noses and cheeks were red from the cold wind like a chaotic blade.
"Alas, you have to come out to work on this cold day!" one of them couldn't help but grumble as he walked.
"Hey, what's the solution? It's the end of the year, who isn't desperately trying to scrape together the public grain to pay?" The other person obviously sighed first, and then his face was also angry, and the hot breath in his mouth instantly condensed into a white mist due to the cold wind, he gritted his teeth and said, "Since that big master appeared in the castle of that fat man in Rost, this guy has been collecting more and more taxes on rent!"
The man who spoke first squinted his eyes and recognized the way in the wind and snow, sighed and scolded: "That damn fat man, sooner or later he will be damned!"
"Let's say a few words, how can we be the only ones who are suffering in this radius of one city and six towns? But what has happened to those people in other towns who can't bear to go to Rost Castle to stir up trouble in the past two years......? Dyed white by the oncoming wind and snow, he said bitterly, "I heard that a month ago, a master in the city led a dozen apprentices who were good at fighting and wanted to attack Rost's castle, but the result was ...... Alas!"
He sighed again.
The man next to him was also angry and helpless, the fat man of Rost was the big landlord of a city and six towns in their area, and built an ancestral castle on the mountain in the east.
But, more than two years ago, the guys in the castle began to be insatiable, and the taxes on renting land and shops ...... Once a month, it has risen gradually, making everyone in the six towns of this city complain. But this Luo Fat Man has always had no fear, and I don't know where to invite a mysterious master to suppress the rioting farmers, hunters, and traders.
I heard that many people died.
In the high mountains where the castle is located, there is the only road to the outside world, but now, no one has been able to leave this place for a long time.
Resist, powerless to resist, flee, no way to escape.
The people here can only endure and endure their lives.
They used the fruits of their blood and sweat to feed and drink the people in the castle, in exchange for a steady stream of money for them, which they could use to close the door and enjoy. Inside and outside the castle, there are two worlds.
The mood was gloomy, and suddenly, the two saw two vague figures faintly walking in the oncoming wind and snow.
At first, the two of them didn't care, although the New Year is approaching, there are really many people who are staring at the cold and snow for their livelihood at this time. But...... Soon, they sensed that something was wrong: the two people who were approaching in front of them, and whose outlines were gradually clear, were still swimming gracefully in such a big wind and snow, as if they were walking?
It turned out to be two old men, a man and a woman!
Looking at their faces, they all look at least fifty years old, but both of them have gray hair, but they are more like sixty-year-old people, and what is even more peculiar is that the temperament of these two people seems to be like the vigor of a man in the prime of his thirties and forties......
At this time, the wind and snow were in full bloom, woo woo, woo woo, the cold wind like a knife was sandwiched with extremely dense goose feathers flying snow, but the clothes, hair, and faces of the two old men who were walking in the snow were completely free of any snow traces or stains...... Even the corners of the clothes have no traces of wetting.
The four people who were walking towards the "......" were staggered in the snow, and the two farmers and hunters watched the two strange old men and the old woman pass by them blankly, but the two of them seemed to be completely oblivious to their existence, talking and laughing and strolling by themselves, as if what they were seeing was not a harsh wind and snow, but a poetic spring flower.
When they were rubbing shoulders, the two heard the old man of the two old men whispering to himself: "...... Hehe, the little star has grown up, what are you doing as a father for the troubles of the girl's family? Let your daughter-in-law care more about her...... Well, I'll pass by the Western Capital with your mother for a while, so I'll go to your house to sit down, and I'll take a look at my eldest granddaughter by the way......" The voice chuckled, drifting farther and farther, gradually blurring in the wind and snow.
Who is this old man talking to? Not like the old lady next to him?
The two men in animal fur coats were confused, but inexplicably quickly took the initiative to forget and ignore this kind of wrongness, such as these two people were not wet in the wind and snow, it was better for them to walk calmly in this bad weather, for example, they didn't know who they were talking to...... "Goo!" Suddenly, in the gray sky, a fiery red cloud fell from the snow, and it turned out to be a very beautiful red dove!
The red dove flapped its wings and swayed in front of two men in knee-high snow.
was stared at twice by the bird's pupils, and the straight hair in their hearts for no reason seemed to be targeted by something terrible, and there was a feeling even more terrifying than when they were chased by tigers and dinosaurs in the deep mountains and old forests.
Fortunately, the red pigeon didn't pay much attention to the two men and shook past them.
And these two people, as before, quickly forgot and ignored this strange scene...... They soon made their way through the snow and wind again, spitting bitter water on each other, as if they had never met the old man and the old lady and the red dove just now.
Wu Tian raised his hand, the soft qigong light wrapped his palm, and the smaller immortal bird landed on the back of his hand, wrapped by the qigong on his palm, and the bird showed a very comfortable and enjoyable look. At the same time, while walking side by side with Hathaway in the wind and snow, he whispered to himself, "Jarvis, how is it, the information I gave you about the 'Rainbow Feather Bird'...... Have you found any more of this bird?"
"No, Mr. Wu Tian. The mechanically synthesized male voice actually sounded in Wu Tian's mind.
This place is not many miles away from the island where Wu Tian and the others live, and Wu Tian was able to use his spiritual power to contact the host of the main program data storage of the super brain jarvis in the research institute on the island without relying on any auxiliary equipment, which shows that his spiritual magic cultivation is profound.
Hearing her husband's self-talk, Hathaway on the side glanced at him and said with a smile: "You are really convenient." She touched a metal-like bracelet on her wrist.
Wu Tian also smiled slightly, holding the little immortal bird in one hand and holding the old wife's hand in the other, the two gradually walked out of the snow-covered small city, but the world was covered in silver, and there was not much difference between the haunted and the city. In the process, Wu Tian told Hathaway about what he had inadvertently seen in the hearts of the locals on the road.
"Is there such a person?" Hathaway frowned, she looked at the snow that was obscuring her vision, "Let's take the people from that castle for the people here...... Cleaned up, huh?" she said casually, because it wasn't a big deal.
"I don't care, I'll listen to you. Wu Tian shook his head, he reached out and wiped the metal ring on Hathaway's wrist, and said at the same time, "Jarvis, project the out-of-body map of this area." As soon as the words fell, from Hathaway's metal bracelet, following Wu Tian's movements, a glimmer of light shot out, in front of the two of them, in the wind and snow air, condensed into a screen of light, and the picture quickly changed into a 3D three-dimensional map.
Towns, mountains, terraces, foothills...... and the castle on the hill.
Hathaway stretched out her hand at the small castle on the cliff in the east corner of the three-dimensional map, and her five fingers expanded, and the map suddenly zoomed in and enlarged, she said, "This is it, right?" Wu Tian nodded, and the next moment, the wind and snow submerged the location of the two of them, and even the footprints on the ground were quickly buried.
…………
Rost Castle.
"What kind of person?" A cold spirit of the knight standing guard in the wind and snow outside, looking at the two people and a bird that appeared out of thin air in the clearing, subconsciously asked, and the two columns of knights, a total of fourteen people, suddenly took action, raised the spear in their hands, and made a gesture to surround the newcomer.
The gates of the castle were closed, and it was their duty to keep them safe from anyone who offended.
As long as they insist on it for a year, the people in their family can be exempted from paying half of the taxes to the owners of the castle. So no matter what, they can't let any accidents happen.
Can......
Not to mention Wu Tian, even Hathaway didn't take these roadblocks seriously, the tips of the fourteen iron guns surrounded them, and the cold mangs of the forest looked even colder in the wind and snow, but at this moment, the red dove that stopped on the back of Wu Tian's hand chirped, and the small wings slapped twice at the fourteen knights who surrounded them.
Boom -
The seemingly immature wings were wrapped in an incredible air current, giving rise to a violent whirlwind that was more violent than the wind and snow in the mountains, and instantly fanned the fourteen knights away, bang, bang...... Fourteen pancakes were plastered to the castle walls, and the fourteen knights all fainted under the snow-soaked armor before they could react to anything.
Wu Tian didn't stop, and continued to walk towards the gate with Hathaway.
Rumble!
He bent his fingers in the air and knocked lightly, and the gate of the castle shattered into pieces in an instant...... The outside world is in stark contrast to the warm and spring-like castle, Wu Tian and Hathaway casually step into the castle, Hathaway's mood is not much different from the past year's travels, and his face is calm on Wu Tian's side.
"Who is it?!Who is not long-eyed?!Master, you should help you get rid of it!" Hathaway suddenly frowned in disgust and stopped walking from the depths of the castle as a fat man as obsess as a mountain of meat. Wu Tian also stopped, but he didn't look at the fat man, although the fat man was the target of the two of them, but ......
Wu Tian looked at the man who was following the fat man of Rost, and the man was also squinting at him.
That man has a childish face, who is not Tsurumi who has not been seen for decades?
