Chapter Forty-Eight: The Last Hope

"My lord, the chief of Hammond is here. In the not-so-luxurious room, the maid whispered to the middle-aged man sitting on a chair.

The man is about 40 years old, with a Chinese face, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a resolute face, wearing a set of white clothes, and the ends of his ear-length white hair are slightly upturned.

Sitting across from the man was none other than Lin Xiu, who had arrived at the Wind Fortress the day before.

Sinclair's face was haggard, and he looked at the man with a bitter face: "Lord Dawn, I really received treatment at Hammond. ”

"Since you said you were being treated at Hammond, and it just so happened that the Hammond village chief was here, you should come with me to meet you!" Dawn finally stopped pressing, this time, Sinclair to think about things that didn't exist.

Sinclair's eyes lit up: "Lord Lin Xiu is actually here?"

Lin Xiu's travel plan was decided after Sinclair left, so he didn't know that Lin Xiu would go to Changfeng Fortress at all.

"Are you nervous?" Dawn stared at Sinclair, not letting Sinclair react.

"Nervous? No, Lord Dawn misunderstood, I'm just a little weird. Didn't the Lord say that Lord Lin Xiu was here? At that time, Lord Lin Xiu asked him to cure the plague on my body, and the Lord only had to ask Lord Lin Xiu to know. Sinclair said excitedly.

Although the Marquis of Daun did not torture him, the way the Marquis of Daun treated him was more uncomfortable than the execution, since he was sent to this room yesterday afternoon, the Marquis of Daun has stared at him until now, even in the middle of the night, the Marquis of Daun has not gone to sleep.

Sinclair, who is already old, can not withstand such a toss, his eyes are bloodshot, sour and astringent.

With the intervention of the janitors, ten members of the garrison, as well as Charman, were left outside the castle.

After storing their weapons, Lin Xiu, Mavis, Wren, Ersa, and Faulkner met Marquis Daune, the manager of the Long Wind Fortress, in a study under the guidance of the maid.

"Marquis of Daun. ”

Lin Xiu clasped his right hand on his left shoulder, and the rest of the people lowered their heads slightly and saluted Dao En.

This group of people came from different places, and in order to avoid embarrassing things when he met Marquis Daun, Lin Xiu told them about the etiquette of the nobles in advance.

"You're Charlize's second son?" Dawn sat behind the desk, his chin gently dragged across his fingers, and looked at Lin Xiu, behind him the five ironclad guards stood in a row, as long as Lin Xiu and his party made any moves, they would immediately launch a thunder attack.

Lin Xiu nodded: "Lord Hui, I am the second son of Count Charlize, Lin Xiu Andre." ”

"I've heard that you have a cure for this plague. Dawn's tone was calm, but the meridians of his arm that were still throbbing for exertion still revealed his uncalm mood at the moment.

A smile rose at the corner of Lin Xiu's mouth: "Yes, I sent someone to cure Sinclair of the plague, if I guessed correctly, he was the first person to be transmitted." ”

Daun's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Really!"

Dawn lowered his head in contemplation, and the two sides fell silent, and it wasn't until a minute later that Dawn raised his head again: "Tell me about your conditions." ”

Talking to smart people is effortless, Lin Xiu smiled: "I hope that those who have the plague will all stay in Hammond." ”

"Bold! Even the people of the Long Wind Fortress dare to rob it!

Scold!

Five ironclad guards drew their swords at the same time, and the door to the study was pushed open, and a large group of ironclad guards blocked the door.

Mayvis, Wren, Faulkner, and Elsa also surrounded Lin Xiu in the middle.

In this tense situation, the air will reach freezing point, and no matter who on both sides makes any moves, a big war will inevitably break out.

"Marquis Daun, I will not intervene in the power dispute of the Borean Fortress, all I need is ordinary civilians who can work, think about it, this plague is not as simple as you think. Lin Xiu said lightly.

Lin Xiu turned around and waved his hand to a few people around him: "Let's go." ”

Without Daun's order, the ironclad guards blocking the door were oppressed by Lin Xiu's momentum and retreated.

When Lin Xiu walked to the door, Daoen finally spoke: "Wait." ”

"Have you figured it out?" Lin Xiu smiled and turned around, as if he had expected that Daun would stop him.

Dawn walked to the window and looked into the distance: "So far, 1,213 people have contracted this plague, are you sure?"

Lin Xiu was shocked in his heart, more than 1,000 people had been infected in just a few days, and the Black Death really lived up to its name.

However, so many people have contracted the Black Death, so the room in the treatment center is not enough, even if the aisle is used, it can only accommodate 300 people, and there are 900 people left, where should these people be placed? Moreover, there are only 6 medical staff in the treatment center now, which means that a medical staff has to connect with 200 patients, can it be done? Lin Xiu was not sure in his heart.

But he let his words out, and now he can only bite the bullet: "More than 1,200 patients are really tricky, but I can try." ”

After listening to Lin Xiu's words, Dao's serious expression was obviously much slackened: "Try it, it's okay, as long as you can cure them, I can not interfere with their decisions, and how many people you can leave is up to you." ”

"Thank you, sir. ”

Dawn clapped his hands, and a maid led Sinclair into the study.

Sinclair glanced at Dawn and said to Lin Xiu, "My lord, I'm sorry, I messed up the matter." ”

"It's okay, I'm not to blame you for this. Lin Xiu said calmly to Sinclair, and then looked at Marquis Daun.

Dawn turned to the maid who had just entered the house and said, "Pasha, prepare the car, go to the prison." ”

————————————————

Sitting in the carriage, Lin Xiu's body swayed back and forth, although there was a layer of cushion under his body to absorb shock, he was still a little sick to his stomach.

The not-so-loud sound of the horse bell reminds pedestrians to avoid it, but now that the civilians are hiding in the house, the horse bell has lost its meaning.

Behind the carriage was the sound of neat footsteps, and the iron boots hit the ground with a constant clanging sound, giving people a sense of tranquility.

"Lin Xiu, I'm sorry for your father's matter. Dao En, who was sitting on Lin Xiu, straightened his waist, his eyes were closed and his eyes suddenly opened, and he looked ahead with a vacant gaze and said.

Lin Xiu glanced at Dao En and quickly lowered his head: "These are all in the past, now we should all look forward, shouldn't we?"

Dawn took a deep breath, "yes! Look ahead, but all I can see is a cloud of fog in front of my eyes." ”

Lin Xiu didn't know how to answer, he tried his best to hold on to the side of the cushion and control his body.

After a while, Dawn turned his head to look at Lin Xiu, and a smile appeared on his hard face: "You are not the same as what I have heard, it is rumored that you are a stinky boy who only knows how to mess around." ”

"The stinky boy also had a turn of sex, and Hammond changed me. Lin Xiu said undeniably, fine beads of sweat erupted from his palms, Daun is too powerful, staying by Daun's side, he has a feeling of being seen through at any time.

"Hammond?" Dawn put away his stiff smile, "How much do you know about Hammond?"

"Isn't Hammond the designated place for the nobles to be exiled?"

Daun shook his head, looked straight ahead, and his eyes were extremely deep: "No! This is the hand of the first king, and it is the last hope left by the first king to the current queen!"
