The sunset is more and more vivid, like a red sun about to leap over the horizon.

It's so weird!

Marbury swallowed, stood up with his arms propped up, and lay down on the battlement, his pupils dilated instantly, and the jumping, blazing flames were raging in the castle, like a sea of fire.

"Jordan, Jordan. Marbury's voice trembled.

"What?" Jordan stood up and leaned over to take a look, his whole body stiffened, and the burning granary was like a huge coal, spewing tongues of fire everywhere.

The two glanced at each other, and Jordan trembled his lips: "Granary??"

That's exciting, isn't it?

......

"Your Excellency Leah. In the banquet hall in the stone castle, the fat Pol sat on the specially made widened main seat, like a toad squatting in a box, and his small eyes were still two gaps: "The Duke's orders, there is no room for disobedience and delay. ”

"I understand. ”

The dinner party for Leah was not sumptuous, it could even be called shabby. From the beginning of the banquet, Pol had a swaggering attitude, which made Leah very dissatisfied.

But she could only swallow her anger: "But ...... Bear the sustenance of two knights. Also, we may not be able to support the construction of long-term defense camps now. ”

"Ho-ho-......" Pol's laughter was mixed with gasps, and it was extremely ugly, "Can't we take care of ourselves, build our own camp, help you fight for your safety for free?" ”

Blackstone Fort was so poor that it couldn't afford two knights to eat and chew, not to mention that in the event of casualties, they would have to pay a certain pension. It's like hollowing out the Blackstone Castle.

But how to refuse?

Really disobedient?

Liya is now completely in a dilemma.

"Your Excellency. Liya took a deep breath, her heart full of helplessness and sadness: "I didn't mean that, being able to clear out the robbers of the Black Stone Territory is indeed a good thing for us. But maybe it will take some time to prepare, or maybe I can go back and check out the autumn harvest. ”

Autumn Harvest ...... Bol may seem bloated and bulky, but he is not a fool to sit in this position. His eyeliner had already told him about the autumn harvest of the Black Stone Collar, and everything was so perfect, including the cotton, that he couldn't figure it out.

How is it possible to rely on such a small farmer?

This can't even be done in the town.

What exactly the Duke of Ceylon had intentions for Blackstone Castle, Pol had a vague premonition, but it was not yet clear. However, Lubos strictly ordered him to hold Leah back and prevent her from returning to Blackstone Castle, probably out of some special consideration.

"Your Excellency Leah. Pol moved his fat body, and a smile squeezed into the corner of his mouth: "Don't be in such a hurry. I've heard that the person who came to our aid this time is Lord Myster of Waterdeep City, who not only has an elite knight, but his family background may be able to help you in your problems. ”

Lord Mister?

Ria remembered that at the celebration banquet, the courteous Lord, who was also introduced by the Duke himself, would help rebuild the Blackstone Knights.

"So, be patient. There are clean and comfortable rooms in the stone castle, maybe you can take a rest, wash off the dust all the way, and then get a good night's sleep......"

"Oh no, no!"

Bol's slow words were suddenly interrupted by a panicked cry. Herbert rushed into the banquet hall in a panic, ignoring the etiquette at all, and his tone trembled: "The castle is on fire!"

"What?" Ball's fat rippled violently.

"Blaze, blaze!" Herbert's face was extremely distorted, with a cry: "The sky is dyed red, sir, the castle is on fire, something must have happened." ”

"Quick, help me up!" Ball's eyes finally widened, and he could see a pair of brown pupils. With Herbert's support, he stood up tremblingly and roared, "Is it an enemy attack? What the hell is going on? Damn bastard!"

Leah was also shocked, followed Pol from the banquet hall to the courtyard, and when she looked up, she saw that the sky in the distance was fiery red, and thick smoke billowed into the sky.

The castle is the most important inheritance of a lord, and it is also a military fortress for the separatist side. What's more, the grain handed in by the farmers for the autumn harvest and the taxes to be transported to Waterdeep City were all stored inside.

The most frightening thing is that castles are generally built in precipitous places for military purposes, often far from water sources. A fire is a terrible thing.

Pol was completely panicked, there were sea monsters in the port, and there were basically zero taxes during this time, which was enough for him to have a headache. Now that the castle is on fire, if the granary is destroyed, it will be equivalent to destroying more than half of the foundation of Daotan Town.

"Meissen!Meissen!Palo!Palo!"

Pol shouted, and the two main officers of the Black Forest Knights, Meissen and Palo, who were wearing half-body armor, rushed in from outside the courtyard in a hurry.

"Immediately set out the whole army, no, bring me the militia team with me, and put out the fire at all costs! Also, find out for me! Find out, if the enemy attacks, no matter who it is, kill them all! Bastard, bastard, son of a bitch! My granary, keep it for me!"

"Yes, knights, follow me!"

"Lord Pol, what's going on?" Damn, my God...... At the other arch of the stone castle, the slaver Quetan rushed out with his servants, and his expression was shocked when he saw the fire in the sky.

Pordurt's three major sources of income, port taxes, farmland taxes, and the slave trade that Quetaan took care of on his behalf, as Pol Dut's doglegs, Quetaun was also a celebrity in front of Bol.

"Damn, damn it!" Pol cursed incessantly, and the fat on his face turned a terrible flush: "Holy Spirit bless, Holy Spirit bless!"

The Knights of the Black Forest assembled very quickly, showing a high level of military literacy, with a vast army of servants and apprentices, as well as militia teams, holding torches, forming a long dragon, and quickly marching towards the castle.

Everyone understands how important a castle is!

The intense anger and panic made Pordut's blood pressure rise rapidly, his eyes blackened for a while, and his body was shaky. With Herbert alone, he couldn't stand it at all, so he had to call out loudly: "Come on, come on, help the master in, help me in." ”

Quettane ran over in a puff of smoke, and the two of them supported Pol on the left and right, and did not forget to tell his subordinates: "Heynck, lead people to guard the entrance and exit and protect the manor." ”

Now is the weakest moment for the manor's armed forces, this fire, the burning Quettane heart is full of strong uneasiness, he has limited followers, barely able to hold the two entrances of the stone castle.

And Leah looked at the fire, although she was shocked, she felt a long sigh of relief. At least, the duke's order, I'm afraid, will be extended.

What a timely fire.

Leah breathed a sigh of relief and retreated into the stone castle.

Still in the banquet hall, Pol was thrust into his wide chair, panting violently, still swearing. Herbert and Quettane were constantly comforting on the side.

"Your Excellency. Leah sat back in her place and tried to comfort her out of politeness: "I am very sorry for this......"

"Shut up for me!" Pol's mood was extremely unstable, and his anger that had nowhere to vent was directly transferred to Liya, who was already unpleasant: "Take care of your own business!"

This is already equivalent to an insult among the nobles, and Leah's face instantly turned red, and her tone turned cold: "Your Excellency, please pay attention to your words. ”

"Smack".

Pol waved his arm and swept the glass to the ground, staring at Leah grimly, "Correct your position! a lord who doesn't even have a knight is just a piece of waste!"

"You!" Leah is not a coward, she always has the arrogance of being a nobleman, even if she has nothing, she will never bow her head: "Your Excellency Pol, I don't think I have a reason to stay!"

Leah stood up and was about to leave, but Pol did not forget the duke's order, and slapped the table and shouted: "You dare to disobey! This is rebellion, this is betrayal! I have the right to arrest traitors!"

A big hat was buttoned down, and Liya trembled angrily: "You dare!"

"Why don't I dare! Lord Duke, I won't be on your side! Sober up, it's wisest for you to stay here. ”

"You!" Leah's face was bruised, and her fists rattled, but the thought of Alice, who was still waiting for her in Blackstone Castle, was not worth it to fall into a situation where she could not turn over in order to be reckless.

That intense humiliation and anger turned over in her heart.

Just then, a maid's scream came from the corridor of the stone castle, "Ah, it's on fire! it's on fire!" and the whole corridor was in turmoil.

"Damn!" Pol's fat twitched.

Then a manservant rushed in: "Master, it's not good, there is a fire in the stone castle." Please go out and take shelter!"

"Herbert!" Pol screamed, feeling a sense of foreboding. With the help of Herbert and Quettane, they quickly reached the hallway, and the billowing smoke was already pouring in from the other side.

Leah's movements were also swift, and she followed her to the rotunda leading to the exit, and before she could stand on her feet, a burly body flew in from outside the palace gate, and slammed into the wall with a thud, her chest sinking, blood splattered, and bleeding flowers bloomed on the wall.
