Chapter 7: The Road to Escape

Seeing that the gates were about to be closed, Gravel threw a knife at the guards guarding the gates. Not to mention, the gods really take care of Gravel. The knife stabbed the soldier in the throat without moving.

"Waste, a bunch of waste. ”

The tall and thin man, who had eased up a little, angrily killed a guard next to him with his sword.

"Slut, I'm going to get you back and skin you alive. ”

At this point, the barkeeper told the tall and lanky man that Gravel had an accomplice in the castle.

Under the orders of the tall and thin man, the castle had reached a state of high alert. Patrols went to the streets and shops to look for the hiding. The gates of the city were also shut, and no one was allowed to go out of the city. And before closing the gates, a cavalry force of more than 100 men had been sent to arrest Gravel and the woman.

Besides, in the city, Gravel originally asked Tony to escape in advance, but he didn't make it, and now he was locked up in the castle. Now the patrols in the city are looking for him everywhere, and they are about to find him.

Outside the city, Gravel and the woman rode their horses all the way.

Anna, who was in the camp, saw Gravell and a woman being chased by a group of cavalry and knew something was wrong.

Anna told the other brothers in the camp not to act rashly.

The next day, the gates were opened, and the castle began to return to normal, but the checks on leaving the city were extremely strict.

Anna and her three brothers disguised themselves in the castle because they had heard that Tony was trapped in the city, and that it was Tony who was looking for him in the castle, and Anna and the others were going to pick up Tony.

Gravel, on the other hand, ran away with the woman for a day and a night, and they plunged headlong into the dense forests of the Wilsonnes. The pursuers behind were sleepy and lacked horses, so they had no choice but to give up, and they rode back to Haiyabao.

Seeing that the pursuers had returned, Gravel and the woman stopped to catch their breath.

Gravel took off his black cloak and threw it to the woman.

Only then did the woman remember that her blouse was in tatters, and a hint of blush appeared on her pink face.

Seeing the woman wrapped in a cloak, Gravel had a lot to ask for a while, but he didn't know what to say for a while.

The woman saw that Gravel did not speak, and she did not speak first, and both of them felt extremely embarrassed.

"Your nameβ€”" the two asked in unison

"Let's talk about it first. The woman showed her original tenderness

"Girl, what's your name? My name is Gravel, a mercenary captain. ”

"Hello, my name is Dalena. ”

"How did you get caught by that nobleman?"

Remembering the scene in the tavern a day ago, Delena couldn't help but cry. Then, Delena actually cried and fell on Gravel's shoulder.

"I ran out of the house alone, thinking that the outside world was interesting, but I didn't expect that there would be danger everywhere. I've been robbed by bandits, separated from caravans, deceived by swindlers. Unexpectedly, in order to make a living in the bar, he became one of their buddies, and he attracted the lustful eyes of many men. In the end, I was betrayed by the bar owner to the nobleman. I heard that the nobleman's name was Sedak, and he was a baron. Sedak's father, Count Steve, is the supreme commander of the entire Haiya Castle. ”

"It seems that you have suffered a lot, so why did you run away from home in the first place?"

"This..."

Seeing that Dai Lina was reluctant to answer, Gravel did not continue to ask.

"By the way, how did you know I was upstairs. ”

"My companion and I were drinking when we heard a woman crying upstairs like a pig. At that time, I knew that something big must have happened. I went to the back of the tavern and pinpointed the source of the sound. Then I asked my partner to find a rope and managed to make it hang firmly on the roof. And then there was the scene where I broke through the window. ”

"I hate it, you scream like a pig. But where did the two horses tethered downstairs come from?"

"Me and my companion's. ”

"Oh, we fled the pursuers on your and your companions' horses. What about your companion? What about him?"

"I told him to run out of town early. ”

"He didn't have much to run with a horse, and eighty percent was caught. ”

"Oops. Gravel woke up with a shock, and he really hadn't thought it through

Gravel's heart suddenly became heavy, and he hated how he had thought so poorly in the first place. It is no wonder that Gravel, in such a hurry, could not have thought through the problem so thoroughly.

"No, I have to go back. Gravel said as he mounted his horse

"You're crazy, we managed to escape from the castle with great difficulty. If you go back now, won't you die in vain?"

"But I can't watch my brother get caught. ”

"Then I'll go back with you. ”

"Whatever"

Gravel was about to mount his hunting horses, but for some unknown reason, the two hunting horses suddenly panicked.

As soon as Gravel let go, the hunting horse galloped all the way.

Watching the two hunting horses gallop quickly, Gravel was puzzled by their strange behavior.

At this moment, there was a rustling sound in the woods.

Gravel and Dalena immediately became vigilant. Gravel picked up the twig from the ground and threw it to Delena.

Gravel also clenched the dagger in his hand and quietly observed the surroundings.

Suddenly, a strong wind swept through.

"Run! ”

Gravel also relied on his physical agility to dodge the attack hidden in the shadows.

"It was so dangerous just now, I was almost caught by this guy. Gravel sighed in his heart

I saw that the guy hiding in the shadows arrogantly "walked" out.

That's right, it's a tiger, the overlord of the mountains and forests.

"It won't be so unlucky. "Gravel can only complain about his own bad life now

"I just escaped the pursuers, and now there is another tiger. And now there is no long sword in his hand, only a dagger. "Gravel was really cornered this time.

Although Gravel thinks he is not bad, it is a bit crazy to fight a tiger at close range with just one dagger.

Delena did as Gravel had told and ran off into the distance.

Without Dalena, Gravel was relieved. At least his own sacrifice saved a girl who was ashamed of the moon, and it was worth it.

It was difficult for Gravell to calm himself down, after all, it was now a matter of life and death.

I'm sure no one can be at peace, and this feeling is like dancing on the blade of death. Gravel is no exception. His hands began to tremble unconsciously, and the dagger almost fell to the ground.
