Chapter 108: I don't mind using other methods
As he spoke, Witt showed the man and his wife his injured leg, which was visibly bloodied despite being washed away by the rain. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"At this time your daughter suddenly appeared, her horse was frightened, my companion Arthur happened to save her and asked her for help, please rest assured, from the beginning, your daughter did not give us a positive answer, she also said some of your family's current difficulties, let us not get too hopeful, so we just have the mentality of giving it a try and ask you. We just need a shelter from the wind and rain so that my legs can rest for the night. ”
Witt pointed to Nayin and continued: "Just like the doctor in our team said, the wound needs to be dry, otherwise it will festered quickly, but as you can see, this rain just doesn't stop, we can't find a place to shelter from the rain for a long time, and all of us are exhausted. ”
Werther opened the backpack again, took out the bag containing the coins, and deliberately shook it, causing the coins in the bag to make a distinctive collision sound.
"I understand that the arrival of strangers always destroys peace, and peace is very important for a family like yours who live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, so we are willing to pay you some compensation. Hope you will consider it. ”
When Werther showed the money bag, the man's wife immediately looked at the man, her dry and thin lips slightly open, as if to say something. As soon as Werther had finished speaking, she took the man's arm and said in her hoarse voice, "These children are so pitiful, and you see how badly this polite boy is wounded." ”
Werther's words made the man's anger weaken a lot, and after looking at his wife beside him, the man looked back at Werther and said in a rough voice: "Five hundred dinks, I'll let you stay for one night!"
"Five hundred!?" Salina exclaimed, "It's a robbery! Why don't you ......?"
Before Salina finished speaking, Naine secretly bumped into Salina, and Salina understood what Naine meant, so she could only shut up.
"Five hundred dinks...... Werther hesitated, "if you stick to this price......"
Witt didn't finish his sentence when he was interrupted by Arthur.
"Originally, it didn't matter how much money you wanted. Arthur had a gloomy face, frowned slightly, glared at the man, and said in a deep voice, "I can do whatever it takes to make Vitgo's wounds heal as soon as possible, but you are disrespectful to my companion, three hundred dink, if you don't agree, I don't mind using other methods." ”
Witt looked at Arthur.
Both Witt and the man could see that Arthur's staring dark eyes were radiating a dangerous aura. The man followed Arthur's arm and saw his hand gripping the hilt of the sword. The man looked at the other three strangers and saw that except for the girl in the skirt, the other two were armed with weapons.
The man's throat moved, and he was watched by his wife and eldest daughter, and the man knew that he had to choose carefully.
"All right!, three hundred dinks!" said the man, even more rudely, almost in a shout, "but in the stable!
Arthur sneered: "The stables are just right. ”
Witt duly tapped Arthur on the shoulder. Seeing the man stretch out his hand, Witt didn't say anything, took out three hundred dinks and handed them to the man, the man snorted in a low voice and turned around and left. The woman looked at Witt and sighed, "Hey, that's pitiful, I hope you can be more comfortable in the stable." Then he turned around and walked away.
Only Norman was left standing in the doorway. But after a while, the man's roar came: "Close the door, the rain is pouring in, the damp floor will be moldy, you are responsible for cleaning it!"
Norman turned around and shouted, "I know!"
After a hurried look at Arthur, Norman went into the house, grabbed the candlelight, walked out of the cabin, and closed the door.
"I'm sorry to spend you three hundred dinks. Norman looked at Arthur apologetically, his face slightly lowered and his lips slightly open, as if he would continue to say sorry.
"It doesn't matter now. Arthur picked up Werther again, "Take us there." ”
Norman could see that Arthur was in a hurry to let his companion recuperate, and that there was really nothing more to say in this situation, so she led the group to the stable, not far from the hut, and took the only horse in the house.
After opening the door of the stable, lighting the oil lamp in the stable, and bringing the horses back to the stable, Norman stretched out his hand and said to the people, "This is it, the place is not very big, but it is quite clean, I am sorry, you can spend the night here, but you have spent three hundred dinks, and you can use the firewood on the firewood rack as you like." ”
When Arthur and Nayin helped Werther to sit down, Norman said, "Actually, my father lied to you, he was not an old hunter at all, he didn't know how to use a bow and arrow, the only tool he could use was an axe to chop wood, and he would only do that." ”
After settling Witt, Arthur's heart was steady. Naine crouched on the ground, examining Werther's wounds and changing him into a clean, dry bandage.
Arthur sneered, "I know, he can't bluff me." ”
"You know?" Norman was surprised, "how do you know?"
Arthur shrugged: "I looked at his hand when he took the money, and that hand was obviously different from Vitgo's hand, and there were no traces caused by long-term practice of archery. ”
Norman looked at Werther, who smiled and held up his hand, thumb and forefinger apart, so that she could see the clear marks on his hand.
"I see!" Norman looked at Arthur with more admiration.
Salina asked Norman, "Hey, can we make a fire?"
Norman nodded, "Yes, but be careful not to burn the grass." ”
"We'll build a bonfire with stones, don't worry," Witt said. ”
"Well, that's good. After a pause, Norman added, "I'll help you find the stones, which should be in the house." ”
Arthur casually said, "Okay, then please." ”
Because of Arthur's words, Norman lowered his head slightly and walked out with a smile.
"Hey boy, Norman seems to like you very much. Werther laughed, deflecting the pain from the wound by making a joke about Arthur.
Arthur sighed: "Don't kid Brother Vitter, I don't like this place at all, I don't like this weird family. I have a bad feeling about them. ”
Arthur's words were echoed by Salina.
"The man was underwhelmed. Salina said as she shook the water off her face and body, "If he doesn't agree to the price of three hundred dinks, Arthur wants to use other methods, and I don't mind contributing my strength." ”
Salina said this, making Arthur laugh.
Arthur's laughter had not stopped, when suddenly the sound of sheep crowing near the stable.
