Chapter 231: Pioneer Battalion Deserters
I looked down and was thinking about it, and the young man said, "You told me earlier that you have to go to the kitchen to boil medicine. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
"It's so late, you're going to stay up all night?"
The young man looked at me and asked.
When I heard this, I looked at him and shook my head, "It doesn't take that long to boil medicine, and I've done it before." β
I snapped my fingers, casually estimated the time, and said, "If the fire is fine, it will take more than half an hour." β
I emphasized to him: "We have to do it tonight, because tomorrow my companion and I may have to leave the town, and most of the time we will have to take the car ......."
It's the same thing I envisioned when I first made the plan.
It's just that I went to the mountains with the tsundere boy in the middle, and I was delayed for some time on the way.
Fortunately, the war in the Northland has not yet started, and the pioneer battalion has gone wrong again, delaying the pace and progress of the Wang Division.
If you think about it, at least in terms of time...... It can still be matched.
"You want to go to the Northlands?"
The young man quickly interrupted me.
He said with a bit of urgency when he spoke, "But it's really dangerous over there!" β
The young man thought for a moment and quickly added to me, "Don't you know that war is about to start in the Northlands?" Your Majesty and ......"
He advised me, "If you don't have anything urgent, you might as well send a message or something like that." β
"Do you really want to go on your own run?!"
It's rare that he is still kind enough to put himself in my shoes and help me come up with ideas.
I looked down and thought about it, looked at him and said in a somewhat helpless tone: "I know what you said, but ...... I'm afraid it can't be like that. β
"I have a reason to go, I have to go myself."
The young man looked at me in amazement and asked, "Why?" β
"Because my family is still over there!"
I replied in a firm tone.
"No wonder, there's no way...... Actually, it's better not to go! β
After the young man said a few words in succession, he looked at me with a long sigh and said, "The fire in the stove is not extinguished, so if you want to use it, you can go over by yourself." β
"How can I help you?"
I answered, "There's nothing I need to help with, I'm enough to boil the medicine alone." β
He explained to me, "Then I won't go with you." β
"You also know that there are guests who have moved in just now, so I will stay here and not walk away at this time, for fear that the new guests will lack something...... Something to ask me for. β
"It's not good for people to walk away."
I immediately agreed: "Of course it's no problem, I'll go there myself, you wait here." β
I took two steps, turned my head to look at the young man at the inn and said, "Don't worry, I'll do it as soon as possible." β
I didn't worry much about staying up late.
Because the tsundere boy clearly told me that he would let the Yuwen family's guards prepare the car.
When I got in the car, the mountain road was swaying, and I just took advantage of the time in the car to catch up on sleep.
I thought about it and looked at the young man and said, "After I finish boiling the medicine, I will definitely leave the window open and walk for an hour or two......"
I remember him telling me about his former guests, and he was so impressed that I had to say something to reassure him!
"I thought that after dawn, there would be no strange smell in the house."
"The shopkeeper won't find out when he comes," I laughed, "I promise you won't be scolded by him!" β
I won't let him have to run out early in the morning to buy flower dew incense or something like that to block the smell.
The young man smiled and nodded kindly at me.
I helped him close the door gently as I walked out.
...... Inside the town inn.
At this moment, the lights in the rooms where the guards of the Sea Kingdom lived were also on.
One walked to the door, glanced through the crack, and pushed the door open into the hallway.
Every few seconds, he came back and closed the door again.
"The Lord hasn't slept yet, has he?"
The group of them chatted a few words in the room about what happened today, and after discussing it for a while, they came to the conclusion that the little junior sister of the Lord and the person who acted with him must be not weak.
Thinking about the person who can protect her and be sure to go to the mountains, it is very likely that she has already arrived in the town at this moment, but she still hides her traces.
Because they looked at Tianfang's reaction, they always felt that most of the people had already arrived here.
It's not a big town, if it weren't for some concerns from the owner, even if he chose a stupid way, it would be feasible to go directly to an inn to find out.
However, the idea that the guards came up with was categorically rejected by the Lord.
"Listen, there seems to be a sound in the front yard of the inn!"
In the lighted room, one of the guards leaned against the table and listened intently, then raised his head and frowned at his companion sitting opposite him, and said, "Did the group of drinkers in the front yard stay in the lobby all night?" β
"There is an advantage in the guest house, as long as there is a place where you can drink, you don't have so many worries about convenience."
"It's not as ...... as outside," the guard said, pausing, "even if you're drunk, don't worry about falling drunk and freezing outside." β
This was true, and the few of them went to the lobby in the front yard of the inn, where the charcoal fire was warmer than this room, and there were more people waiting inside.
"If you remember that little wine, we can't go with you, and if you want to go, it can only be him."
The guard who answered pointed to the other person in the room, disapprovingly.
The one who heard him immediately turned his gaze, looked at the guard, and immediately said, "If you want to go, you can go by yourself, I will stay here, in case the Lord changes his mind, someone must do something in front of him." β
Hearing this, the guard pursed his lips and looked out the window.
After a while, he retracted his gaze and looked at the two injured companions and said, "The Lord said that you can get rid of the poison on your body when you go to the northland, and you will be there all the way, so bear with me for the time being." β
"Wait until you get to the Northland...... When the time comes, let's have a good drink. β
Hearing this, the two guards sitting opposite each other were slightly stunned.
Then they exchanged glances, and their expressions became a little embarrassed: "I'm afraid you'll be disappointed!" β
"Actually, the Lord mentioned to us that we still have tasks to do when we get to the Northland."
A trace of suspicion flashed in the guard's eyes, and he looked at his companion and said, "When you arrive in the Northland, you should definitely be able to find the little junior sister at that time!" β
If you can't find it again, then the person is not in the Northland at all.
"Could it be that the Lord will still want us to join the King of Sealand to join the army to fight?"
The corners of his mouth raised: "The Lord still this heart? β
He paused for a moment and continued: "In my opinion, the victory or defeat between the empress and that princess should not have much to do with our sea country!" β
The companion glanced at him, and then said: "Our shop in Haiguo, the business is not small, it is best that both sides of this war can negotiate peace, and each side will make a move." β
"That would have been less impactful."
Hearing this, the guard immediately answered: "What we can imagine, you can't think of as the master?" β
After thinking about it, he looked at his companions: "It's just that the Lord's mind has not been on that recently, but I think that in addition to the war, there is another thing that is urgent. β
It was rare for the guard to speak so seriously, attracting the eyes of the other people in the room to turn to him.
A smug look flashed on the guard's face, and then he sat upright and said, "I don't know how that prince stretched out his hand to our sea country, have you thought about it?" β
"In my opinion, the Lord should start investigating this matter as soon as possible."
The others looked at each other.
Then it was the companion with the most calm personality who spoke: "I will investigate, but now the person is here, and the whip is beyond the reach." β
"When I return to the sea country, the lord will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."
...... Several people were sitting or standing, and about half an hour passed.
When the guards went to the hallway to inspect this time, the lights in the sky room were still on.
But since they came out to the present, Tianfang has not let anyone pass.
About tonight, Tianfang plans to think about himself and arrange what he will do next!
After the guard turned back this time, he couldn't help but say, "Since the Lord didn't summon us, I still want to go to the front yard." β
"I'm not just going to drink, I'm going to see if the gang is there in the middle of the night."
The two injured companions laughed and said, "You have to find such a reasonable excuse for drinking, so that we can't say anything else." β
The guard glanced at them and said, "That's right...... You two can go too, just sit there and watch me drink. β
"I'll drink and you two drink tea."
"No, we'll stay here, just like him."
The guards tried to persuade him a few times, but it was clear that his companions' willpower was stronger than he had imagined, so in the end, he had to leave alone.
...... It's the second half of the night.
The guard came out of the small building, and was suddenly blown by the oncoming cold wind, he sneezed, and hurried towards the direction of the front yard.
When he reached the front yard, he saw more than one room with lights on in the inn along the way.
It seems that it is not only the Lord who has a concern, but they also have concerns, and the other people who live in the town inn also have the same reason for not being able to sleep.
The guard walked into the lobby of the inn's front yard and immediately heard voices coming from inside.
When he walked in, he saw that there were no less than seven or eight tables of guests sitting there drinking and chatting in the entire lobby.
Of course, because it was really late at this time, some of the people sitting at the table even fell asleep on the table, apparently because they had drunk too much.
There are also guests who are still in good spirits, sitting at the table and continuing to chat, drink and eat.
It seems that in such a large-scale inn, the young men who work are also extra hard, at least at night, there are indispensable people on duty at night.
When the guard walked in, there happened to be a table of guests ordering, and the young man brought out the cook's dish from the kitchen.
The satellite cable swept through the lobby, a little disappointed, not seeing any of the gang appear in the lobby.
After deliberation, he chose a small table by the window, and walked straight over to sit down.
He ordered the food, sat down and poured the tea on the table casually, took a few sips and waited for the food to come up.
...... The charcoal fire in the lobby is lit, and the surroundings are warm.
The guards were waiting for the food and drinks, but they heard a sudden argument between the guests at a table not far from each other in the corner.
The guard immediately turned his gaze, and there were only two people sitting at the table, looking very old.
The clothes they wore were somewhat similar to those of the inn's nursing home.
In terms of size, one is taller and fatter, and the other is thinner.
One of the guards was surprised when he heard this: "Nonsense, how is it possible! β
"Shhhh
The guard turned his gaze to the two men again, but the next second, thinking that this would attract the attention of the other party, he took his gaze back again.
He heard the two men at the table continue their conversation, and as he listened, a question rose in the guard's mind.
What the other party is talking about seems to be related to the current hot spots in the town.
During this period, I heard several key points, such as "Wang Shi", "Pioneer Battalion" and so on.
In this way, the guards began to value these two people.
He heard a deliberately muffled voice say, "It's not just us here, there are other people's, you have to be careful when you speak." β
The listener had a somewhat nonchalant attitude: "What does it matter! β
The fat man looked around and said indignantly: "Except for those who live in temporarily for trading, the rest are all drunkards, who cares." β
"Besides, such a good opportunity, if you have money to earn but don't bring me, everyone will be angry!"
The guard's eyes flickered, and he looked out of the window in the darkness of the night.
"A few of them...... It's just that it's close to that person, it's more lively than me," the fat man's tone was complaining, and he couldn't help but complain, "But it's not hard to catch a deserter at all." β
"The silver is a lot."
Hearing this, the other person who spoke hesitated and said, "Is it really someone from the pioneer battalion?" Could it be mistaken? β
"Why do you say that?"
The man paused, hesitated, and said, "Actually...... I don't understand, but I think about it myself. β
The fat man reached out and grabbed the wine glass on the table, poured down a big sip and looked at the person sitting opposite: "Hey, you quickly tell me, I can't sleep because I am holding my breath in my heart!" β
"You're going to be mistaken, you say? What would you think if it were yours? β
After a short while, the person opposite him continued to speak: "Everyone knows that the pioneer battalion is going to die, if it were you and me, then you must want to run!" β
The fat man looked at the person talking to him opposite, and echoed: "That's right, who wants to go to that ghost place!" β
"But, since that person has escaped from the vanguard camp, he is still in our town, he is stupid!"
The person sitting down looked down for a while, looked at the fat man and said, "If it were me, I would run south and go over there to avoid the limelight." β
He paused and continued: "After the battle is over, the limelight will pass after two years, and it will not be too late to find a way when the time comes." β
"What the hell do you think that person thinks, he finally seized the opportunity to escape, and ended up running here?" (To be continued.) )
