Chapter 495: The Heart of a Child
Suddenly, Peake was suddenly alert!
In the past five years, Pique has picked up a lot of memory fragments hidden in the corners of his brain, he knows that the noble cane made of Sandy wood is one of his most important secrets, and in the past five years, through the integration of memories with Soros, he gradually remembered a lot of things about Sandy wood, and the box of gold coins in the dream is the profit from the sale of the noble cane caused by Sandy wood!
The noble cane is a secret of Pique, and the cavalry commander in front of him plans to explore the secret he hides in his heart?
Pique is becoming more and more aware that Barton Mondo is not as rugged and heroic as he appears, and that this cavalry commander definitely has a delicate heart, a heart that is unknown to others!
"It's fisheye wood," he muttered for a few seconds, and Peake answered Barton Mondo's question, "The noble cane is made of fisheye wood, which has a unique vein on it, and it can be used to make a noble cane without a lot of delicate carving steps. It is true that the noble canes that he was selling in his carpenter's shop were made of fisheye wood. After many later analyses, he and Soros came to a terrible point of view, that is, the reason why Sisoo appeared in the north was because of the priceless Sandy Mu on the northern continent!
Barton Mondo seemed unimpressed by everything Pique had said, and then he showed a good reserve of knowledge:
"The fisheye tree, which will only take shape in autumn, is a very rare wood, and the Cult of Light will use the fisheye tree as a sacred tree, and the fisheye tree they think is homophonic with the prophecy tree, which leads to the scarcity of fisheye wood, in large cities, the fisheye tree is forbidden to be cut down at will, and only in the north, there is the possibility of fisheye wood, right?"
Peake was a little shocked that the cavalry commander knew so much about wood, and when he heard this, he nodded unconsciously, only to hear the other man continue:
"My adoptive father used to be a Yodelman, with yellow-brown hair and a high nose, and he was a typical northern Yodelman, and like you, he was also a carpenter, so that's why I know that. ”
My adoptive father was also a carpenter, and Peake said that we would like to share this, and I wonder if it was for this reason that this Commander of Patton would show a good opinion of him. Peake didn't speak, he knew the other party hadn't finished speaking.
"As I said earlier, the fisheye wood will only mature in the autumn, and the annual production is extremely rare, and it will be controlled by the Cult of Light, so I guess you will use other wood to make the noble cane, please let me know. ”
Hearing this, Pique immediately clenched his fists, and what made him even more nervous was that Barton Mondo in front of him was staring at his clenched fists! If he didn't explain, the topic might be frozen here, and if he said the word "Sandy Mu," he didn't know what kind of consequences he would face.
A noble cane made of Sandy wood is worth a thousand gold, what if this Barton Mondo in front of him is greedy? Perhaps, he summoned himself to his side just for Sandy Wood? Thinking of this, Pique's heart became tighter and tighter.
"Sandy ......"
Just as Pique was silent, he suddenly heard Barton Mondo say two words, and then his tense heart was slightly relieved.
"Sandy's your son?" Barton Mondo said in his words, "nice name, if I hadn't been in the army, my son would have been older than Sandy! Well, it seems that you don't like the topic of carpenters very much, and we can talk about Sandy." ”
"Yes, my lord, he is indeed my son. Pique could only answer like this, about the identity information of father and son, the roster in the other party's hand is very good
It was useless for him to hide.
"He looks like he's five years old, well, I want to ask, who came up with his nice name, and what does it mean?"
Suddenly, the corners of Pique's mouth twitched!
It's back!
The topic was turned back by him!
By this time, Peake was almost certain that this Barton Mondo had left him by his side as a cavalry squire in order to get information about Sandy Wood from him! Sandy wood was as hard as steel, and it was the hardest wood that Peak had ever seen, and later, he had looked through the ancient books and found a detailed description of Sandy wood, which mentioned in the ancient books had another name - the purest wood
He named his son Sandy, and he also latent hopes that Sandy can be as strong and pure as Sandy wood. "It's the name of an old man in the town," he lied, "and I don't really know what Sandy means." Since the other party knew his noble cane and coincidentally mentioned Sandy, what he wanted to express was probably mentioning himself, as if to say, don't lie, I know you have a son, if you lie......
Thinking of this, a sense of despair suddenly welled up in Pique's heart, surrounded by thousands of cavalry and the second apostle of the necromancer, they were the soft persimmons at the mercy of the other party, why didn't they tell the truth, since the other party had a plan for him, Sandy and his grandfather were under a huge threat, just a fluttering threatening word, all secrets could not be considered secrets.
"Oh, is the old man you are talking about your grandfather? he is an old carpenter, is he? seventy, or eighty?" said Barton Mondo, still in a homely tone.
Peake's heart was indeed shocked! He was silent for a moment, and could only nod slowly, "Yes, it's my grandfather." He didn't know how to answer, and all he could do now was wait for the other party to expose his lies.
What Pique didn't expect was that Barton Mondo suddenly said:
"Oh, well, that's all for today, remember to come to my tent after dawn tomorrow morning to change my clothes, and then you need to take two of you with you to put away my tent and put it in the wagon, that's your task, go, you can go." ”
Peake didn't dare to look up, he couldn't believe that he could get away with it, and he walked out of the dark green tent to avoid meeting Barton Mondo's gaze.
When he walked out, an old man in white with a snow-white parrot standing on his shoulder stepped out of the curtain behind Barton Mondo, and Xuebai looked at the back and said, "Blue eyes!
Barton Mondo turned his head to look at the old man in white, lifted his ass from his chair, and said in a humble tone:
"My lord, he doesn't seem to be the person you're looking for, and he's not the one our military is looking for?"
The old man in white smiled slightly and said, "Why do you say that?"
Barton Mondo replied, "According to the astrologers of the kingdom, the worst and the best coexist, so trouble can be caused by a man with a child's heart. It is clear that he does not have a child's heart. ”
"Oh, so you listen to astrologers, well, they do have some achievements in a certain area, but since you talked about the heart of a child, do you know what a heart of innocence is?"
Hearing this, Barton Mondo was silent for more than ten seconds before he said, "I don't know what a child's heart is, but I know that a liar must not have a child's heart." I've not only examined him once, but it's clear that he's lied many times. ”
"Oh, what did you use to investigate? Sandymu, and his son and grandfather?"
"Yes. ”
"Then do you know anything about Sandy Mu in advance?" asked the old man in white with a smile.
Barton Mondo thought about it seriously, but he still didn't understand the deep meaning of the old man, he could only say truthfully:
"In the past five years, there have been hundreds of noble canes made of sandy wood on the mainland, what a big deal is this? Sandy wood is the exclusive domain of kings, only the scepter of the kingdom is worthy of such precious wood as sandy wood, not to mention that sandy wood is a powerful weapon for the extraordinary. Therefore, the royal capital ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, and the Soros family wisely admitted that they were selling sandy wood, and also sent someone to explain everything. ”
Hearing this, the old man in white threw out another question:
"Yes, Sandy Wood has appeared in the northern town, and the king has found out about it, so do you speculate that the blue hat named Peake is the owner of Sandy Wood?"
"There are five carpentry shops in the town of peace, and with all the information, it's not hard to find out the person who is Pique. ”
"I have to say that Barton Mondo is very clever in leading you, and it is also a smart move for the Sword Legion in the north to send you south, but I want to remind you that the scourge is not something you can probe and understand, and even I dare not go deep into it. The old man in white sat down in a chair in the center of the tent, intending to have a detailed conversation with the wise commander.
Seeing this, Barton Mondo also sat back in his chair generously, with a hesitant look on his face, "My lord," he asked the old man in white, "please guide me, I am only going south for this one thing, if you don't explain it to me, I will not be able to sleep well." ”
"It seems that your Sword Legion still knows a lot of information, but what about knowing? Do you Sword Legion plan to send 100,000 soldiers to kill that blue hat?"
"If he does cause trouble, I, Barton Mondo, am willing to take a risk!"
"Try what? Try to kill him? No, you don't dare, because you know what happened to Sisoo, and you know what happened to his apostles, and when you come to the south, you must also want to see the fate of the second apostle, right? You don't dare to go into the chaos, what you said is just to spy on me. The old man in white spoke completely mercilessly, and directly said what Barton Mondo was thinking.
The doctrine of chaos was transmitted by the Cult of Light and has spread throughout the continent since the fifth year, and the most common theory is that the chaos comes from the north, originating from the chaos.
Hearing the chaos, Barton Mondo's breath suddenly froze, "Well, you are indeed the one who knows everything," he thought for a moment and asked stubbornly, "I wonder if he is the one who has the heart of a child?"
"What do you know? Not to mention whether the so-called astrologers in the royal capital are trustworthy, even if you find the so-called pure heart?"
"At least I'll be able to return to the Endless Wall. Facing the old man in white, Barton Mondo could only tell the truth, "Chaos is something that big people should consider, and I can only be regarded as their hand in clearing the fog." ”
"Well, that's true, you just said that Pique lied to you, so you don't think he's the so-called Innocent Heart. ”
"Yes, a child's heart does not lie. ”
"How do you define lying?"
Barton Mondo was stunned, he didn't know how to answer the old man in white's question.
I only heard the old man in white say calmly:
"A dog barks at a human for a while, and a human says a few comforting words to the dog, and the dog stops barking, and then the dog thinks that the human is lying?
