The Black Hat led the convoy back to Fort Iron. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Just now, they were confronted with a war. A ragtag army of country warriors and ruffians, with the help of Stone Fire Arrows and Pimple Monks' Stone Fire Arrows, the Black Hat ended the encounter without much effort.
The Black Hat and the Pimple Monk walked side by side, watching the large army enter the Iron Castle.
"Do you still have the leisure to play with the country warriors? It seems that the Emperor has not yet done what he has told you. The pimple monk stroked his beard and looked at the black hat with an incomprehensible smile.
"Asano instigated miscellaneous soldiers to constantly harass the Iron Castle, you actually know this, High Priest?" The black hat seemed to want to get rid of the pimple monk, and his pace gradually accelerated.
The pimple monk smiled meaningfully, and then said unhurriedly: "Asano, but the great samurai of the flag with the family crest is really amazing. ”
"He asked us to hand over half of the iron ore, which you know is impossible." The black hat pressed the hat down, ignoring the nagging pimple monk.
"But you know, we don't have time to fight these countrymen. There's another 'army' in the forest, maybe they're coming soon. The pimple monk stroked his beard and kept persuading the black hat: "It's best to satisfy Asano's greed at the moment, and then find a way to negotiate with the people above." Maybe we can get a sizable number of reinforcements......"
"Over there."
After the transport team had all entered the Iron Castle, the black hat tilted his head and gestured to the pimple monk, "The movement is really fast. ”
In the distance, several samurai rode galloping horses and held large flags, and the family crest on the flag happened to be the symbol of Asano. It looks like it's going to be negotiated.
"So, what are you going to do?" The pimple monk asked the Black Hat curiously, and the Black Hat waved at the female soldiers on the watchtower before entering the gate of the Iron Fort without looking back.
"Guests are coming, and we are well entertained."
The simple eight words made the pimple monk smile very brightly, and followed the black hat into the gate of the iron castle.
By the time Asano's messenger arrived, the gates of the Iron Fort had just been closed.
When the envoys saw that they could not enter, they shouted into the Iron Castle: "O Black Hat Lord of the Iron Castle! The battle just now was so beautiful! ”
After the polite words were finished, the messenger ordered the female soldiers on the watchtower: "I'm waiting for the messenger sent by Lord Asano, quickly open the gate and let me enter!" ”
"Tell me about it, bandit!" The female soldiers sneered at the messengers: "This mountain was brought down by the Black Hat Lord's own hands, and it must not be ruined by pigs and dogs." ”
"How dare you women be rude to the messenger?" The green-robed messenger was furious and yelled at the female soldiers.
Faced with the threat of the green-robed messengers, the female soldiers all laughed: "You say we are rude? We are born so rude~ rude! Bah! ”
The female soldiers collectively grimaced at the envoys, and the envoys turned blue with anger: "You, you! ”
"Want a piece of iron? I'll give it to you now! ”
A loud explosion was heard, and the female soldiers set up stone fire bolts and fired at the messenger. The messengers, frightened by the artillery fire, fled back on their horses.
Listening to the hearty laughter of the female soldiers in the city, the pimple monk laughed happily.
"Hahahaha! Yours is it! It's a black-hatted man who doesn't pay attention to the mountain beast gods and samurai! The pimple monk did not hesitate to give the highest evaluation to the black hat: "Just rush at your courage, my stone fire arrow soldiers will definitely support it with all their might!" ”
The black hat sat on a stool and carefully read the letter brought by the pimple monk, and the smile on his face grew thicker and thicker.
"Is such a note useful? The Emperor's so-called solicitation order? The black hat shook the supreme edict.
"It's more than enough to gather the rats from all sides. There are many people in this world who covet glory and wealth. The pimple monk looked at the black hat meaningfully.
But the black hat showed the edict to the women, and asked the women, "Do you understand what is written on it?" I just don't know how to read. ”
"Lord Black Hat, what is this?"
"An edict written by His Majesty the Emperor."
"His Majesty the Emperor?"
The pimple monk's smile froze, and then he covered his face and sighed, "It's really yours." ”
[But pretending to be stupid is not a ploy. 】
The black hat casually threw the edict to the pimple monk, and the pimple monk caught it with one hand.
"Forget it. The Mountain Beast God was originally my goal. ”
"That's right." The pimple monk rolled up the edict and threw it into his backpack: "The enemy of our enemy is our ally." ”
"You also like this, we attenuated the power of the forest in the process of mining, and made weapons to increase our strength. Spend our manpower to achieve the goal, and you are also a good plan. The black hat looked at the pimple monk, and the man in front of him looked more cunning than his appearance.
"'Do you think that the hundred stone and fire arrows we lent you are just here to help make iron?' That's what the grown-ups will say. The pimple monk laughed as he spoke.
"Perhaps, do you really believe that the head of the Mountain Beast God has the power to make people immortal?"
"Adults think it's okay, I don't know. That's it. The pimple monk smiled, this man is not only cunning in his heart, but also extremely sleek in his human feelings.
The black hat stood up and said to the pimple monk, "Then as long as we abide by our agreement, I am responsible for helping you hunt the head of the Mountain Beast God, and you are responsible for helping me take down the Forest of the Mountain Beast God." ”
As he spoke, the black hat seemed to remind the pimple monk of something, and said something intentionally or unintentionally.
"Tell your men who are lurking beneath the Iron Fort to come back, and don't do useless work."
The pimple monk who was said to be through scratched his head and laughed: "Hahaha! I really can't hide anything from you. ”
"Ah, yes. One more thing. The pimple monk suddenly remembered something and shouted to stop the black hat.
"Was there a teenager who passed by here a few days ago? A boy wearing a hood, a blue outfit, and leading a wildebeest. Ah, he still has a strange scar on his right hand. The pimple monk gestured to the black hat.
"What is this for?" The Black Hat's footsteps stopped.
"Ah, I've been taken care of by this teenager before, and I happened to hear that he came here and wanted to say thank you or something." The pimple monk scratched his head and smiled at the black hat.
The black hat didn't speak, and just as the pimple monk wondered if he had said the wrong thing, the black hat spoke up.
"Gone." The Black Hat paused, then walked forward.
"Hey! Wait, what do you mean by that? Has he been here? ”
"Ask the Mountain Beast God."
