Chapter 110: Sword Remnant IV
Jaslin frowned. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info She couldn't understand the attitude of this human. When carrying out missions in the south, even if people show enthusiasm for warriors, it is so that the great sword can cut off the filthy blood of demons as soon as possible. After the demon is destroyed, the villagers with humble smiles on their faces will revert to a look of disgust and drive the warrior away. For them, the blood of the warriors is also unclean.
Jaslin looked around, and the villagers around him cautiously peered at a few warriors, but they didn't show any disgust. However, their actions are not close either. Sulfona, who was standing behind Jaslin, frowned, and she vaguely remembered that she seemed to have seen such a subtle attitude. It's like a commoner meeting a nobleman. Even if it is a lord who has come from a foreign enemy, the civilians do not dare to offend at will.
"Okay." Jaslin gave up thinking, she shook her head and said, "Do you have any spare houses here, just give us a place to hide from the wind and snow." We still have things and water, but please lend us a pot to boil water. ”
"Why bother? I have several rooms in my house, wouldn't it be nice for the big swords to come to my house? ”
Jaslin's expression froze. She has been a warrior for almost two years, and now she doesn't consider herself human. She never imagined that she could live under the same roof as humans. While humans despise warriors, half-demons are not used to humans.
"We warriors are not here to have fun, ordinary thatched houses are fine, and stable warehouses are fine."
"Greatsword-sama, don't get me wrong. Here in Ojos, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and there are many vacant houses. What's more, Lord Greatsword has killed a lot of demons for us, how can we let you sleep in a thatched house? Everyone, please come to my house. ”
Jia Silin was stunned for a moment, and she found that the villagers around her were also whispering, laughing and persuading Sulfur and the others to stay. Looking at Clement's rather sincere eyes, Jaslin also nodded reluctantly. If there were better conditions, no one would want to suffer. A wry smile tugged at the corners of Jaslin's mouth, she couldn't remember how long it had been since she had lived in a human room.
"I also know a Greatsword Master based in Ojos, do I need to contact you?"
"Do you know any warriors?"
Jaslin was even more surprised. You must know that the movements of the warriors are strange, and the strength of their feet is amazing, if they are not the agents of the organization, it will be difficult for others to find their shadows. However, after coming to the Northland, Lulu, who was supposed to come to the joint, disappeared, and Jaslin didn't know where No.3 was. Now this Clement is willing to help, which is naturally a good thing.
"We're here for No.3, just say that to the fighters you know."
"Okay."
Clement nodded slightly, then beckoned behind him. A middle-aged man with a short beard came running, he looked shrewd and capable, and he had a good mind. Clement whispered a few words in the man's ear, and the man nodded repeatedly.
"Without delaying the time of your Great Sword Lord, I will go and practice the Great Sword Master who is resident here now. I also ask my butler to take you to your accommodation. If you have any questions about the Northlands, or if you want to know any information, you can ask them directly. We in Ojos are a forgotten corner of the continent, and foreigners who come here for the first time will always have a lot of questions. ”
Jaslin shook her head, she just wanted to find a house to take off her uniform now. Several of them walked in the snowy mountains for several days and never cleaned themselves. Although fleas also hate the smell of half-demons, Jaslin is always a little uncomfortable. At this time, Sulfona next to her spoke in a deep voice.
"There's just one thing I'm curious about......"
"This Great Sword, you say."
That's when Clement noticed Sulfona. The way Sulfona looks now is indeed a little scary. The skin, which was as shriveled as an orange peel, has turned sallow, and it has layers of wrinkles like an old man. And there is a twilight that can't be concealed, it's a trace of time, something that everyone hates. Clement's face froze visibly when he saw Sulfona, but he quickly lowered his head to hide it.
"How did you know we were coming to Ojos for the first time?" "Maybe we've been on missions elsewhere in the North before, or maybe we've been here a few years ago......"
"Perhaps, but I don't think you have been to Ojos in more than a decade."
"How so?"
When Sulfona asked, Clement smiled. Not only him, but the butler beside Clement, and the villagers around the butler all laughed. Sulfona and the others looked at them in disbelief. Although they were just some civilians who had no combat effectiveness, their inexplicable laughter at the same time brought a trace of nervousness to the soldiers. The men had laughed enough, and Clement grinned and shrugged.
"Because we know all the greatsword masters of Ojos." "Everybody here knows each other. ”
Clement's home is large, and the houses in the north occupy a lot of land, but their house is more magnificent. There were no lords in the Northlands, and there were no feudal nobles. Those squeamish creatures can't stand the harsh weather here, and only when they draw a map do they remember that Ojos is also part of the continent. Therefore, the mayor's house is equivalent to the most luxurious place in Ojos.
When the Sulfona and the others arrived at their quarters, they knew that it wasn't a guest room. Each warrior was assigned a small courtyard with a high fence around it, and these wooden stakes wrapped in iron locks kept out the wind and snow. There are several rooms in the courtyard, and there is even a small warehouse and simple stables. There was a big horse with shiny black fur in the stable, and the butler who had come here with a few swords said that he could use the horses as he pleased.
However, before resting, several big swords chose to wash their bodies first. Some ignorant people also think that a body covered in mud will make it difficult for demons to swallow, so they are reluctant to take a bath. But the warriors understood that demons were only interested in people's internal organs, and they didn't care if the outside was dirty or not. For the warriors was a large bathhouse, and hot water in the north was a rare treat. After driving away a few girls who wanted to come and serve the bath, the warriors really relaxed.
"It's crazy, I feel like a princess. Apparently yesterday I was still like a beggar. ”
Jaslin said in a subtle tone. Doris stood expressionlessly in the water, she was not tall, and the water had reached her chin. As Jaslin spoke, ripples spread out from her side. Doris's lips flickered and disappeared on the water's surface, but she seemed to enjoy the sensation and stood still. Doris hadn't been like this for a day or two, and Jaslin had given up talking to her. She turned her gaze to Sulfona.
"Why are you in the corner. Well, I'm not going to laugh at your age spots. Look at this disgusting pattern on my stomach, we are half a pound and eight taels. Greatsword doesn't need to be good-looking. ”
“……”
Sulfona sighed, and she put away the life lotus plate in her hand. Just now, she had been studying the life lotus in the hazy light and water vapor. Sulfona noticed that after all the petals of the life lotus withered, she broke free from the alien illusion. Perhaps there is a mystery on this life lotus plate. It's also true that he doesn't want Jaslin to see his ugly body. Although she has been in a much more open-minded mood recently, there are still some things that she can't let go. But Jaslin said so, and Sulfona also felt that she was a little hypocritical.
"What's in your hand?" Jaslin asked directly, "You have to bring it here." ”
"And wonderful things, I don't feel at ease if it's not close."
Sulfona taught the Lotus Plate in her hand to Jaslin. Jaslin looked at it and handed the plate back.
"Something, it just looks like some weird pattern. This pattern is not as beautiful as my sword mark. ”
"Don't you see something like a lotus?"
"Oh my God, how do you understand that thing as a flower?"
It seems that Jaslin can't see the life lotus at all. For Sulfona, the Lotus is an almost three-dimensional lotus flower outlined by the reflection of light from the patterns on the Lotus plate, but Jaslin thinks it's a mess. Sulfona thought of Inhuman's discourse on "blindness".
"Maybe your insight is not high enough, and you still need to crush the knowledge of a few madmen or the wisdom of the ancient gods." "Then you can open the Eye of Heaven and see something more subtle - or the whole thing. ”
"I don't know what you're talking about...... Jaslin looked at Sulfur with some pity before changing the subject, "Alright, let's talk about the strange things we've encountered." I'm sure it wasn't a guest room, and I don't know who had a horse in it. ”
"And what do you think it is?" Sulfona asked.
"The courtyard of the concubine. A place waiting for the lord's favor. ”
Sulfona almost collapsed in the bathwater, but when you think about it, it looks like it. These yards are independent of each other, yet self-sufficient. It's just that the courtyards of the three warriors are not next to each other, so it seems a bit troublesome to move around each other. Jaslinzi wiggled his fingers in the water. Her fingers were covered in calluses. Although the warrior gained more than ordinary recovery after the fusion ceremony, the scars he received before that time were more deeply imprinted on his body.
"The people in this village, their attitude is very strange."
"Maybe that's the normal attitude." "Humans respect warriors, and warriors respect humans. Although there are differences between the two, they respect each other. ”
Sulfona sighed after saying that, she didn't say half of it. In her mind, warriors and demons should also respect each other. Even humans and demons can respect each other. But she knew it was just an ideal. But if there is such a day,
Warriors seem to have lost their value in existence.
