"Huh? What is it? Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" After hearing this, Sha You looked at Rowan and asked.

"Well, that's it." Rowan took out a gold coin from his pocket, then put it in front of Sha You, and continued, "I went to the imperial capital to inquire about the time of paying taxes in various parts of the Cutting Pupil Empire. ”

"It seems that from a few days later, all parts of the empire will start to pay taxes in order, but there are still more than ten days left in this month, and I don't know when your village will pay taxes."

"So I'm worried that it's too late to give you your salary, and the village won't be able to receive the money you sent back after the date of paying taxes, so I'll give you your salary for this month first."

Looking at the glittering Imperial Gold Coin on the table, a mist gradually appeared in Sayo's eyes, and then a tear silently slipped from the corner of her eye down her cheek and fell onto the table.

Seeing Sha You's sudden tears, Rowan immediately said in a little anxious: "Sha You, don't cry, do you mean that the time for your village to pay taxes has passed, this... I'm sorry, but I didn't know you about your village, otherwise I would... ”

"No, Rowan, our village pays its taxes in a few days, I'm just... I was just.. It's just that my eyes are a little uncomfortable. Sha You immediately shook his head, gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and looked at Rowan with a very gentle gaze and said.

"Whew, that's good, I thought the time was over, but a few days are a little tight, you hurry up and put away this gold coin and send it back to the village tomorrow." Rowan breathed a sigh of relief, pushed the gold coin to Sha You again with his hand and said.

"Well, thank you, Rowan." Sha You nodded slightly, her eyes still fixed on Rowan and said.

And looking at Sha You's staring at him, Rowan felt a little weird for some reason, but he couldn't say how weird it was, so after sitting for a while, he got up and said, "Ahem, that... Sayo, I'll go back to my room to rest first, so you can rest early. ”

"Hey, is it so early? Well, okay, then you go to sleep first, and I'll sit in the living room for a while. Looking at the time when it was about the time of the Seven Elves, Sayo's eyes couldn't help but pass a trace of loss, but she still nodded to Rowan and said.

"Okay, good night then." With that, Rowan returned to his room.

At this time, Sha You, who was sitting in the living room, looked at the door of Rowan's room, and a trace of tenderness mixed with this emotion that had never appeared in her eyes appeared in her eyes for a long time, and she did not look away for a long time.

As for Rowan in the room at this time, he didn't know why, there was some faint heat in his heart, he took off his clothes, lay directly on the bed, looked up at the ceiling, and couldn't help but have all kinds of thoughts in his mind.

Among them, the most appearing images are not other images, it is the confused appearance of Sayo when she comes out in her nightdress in the morning, and Rowan unexpectedly finds that her appearance at that time overlaps with the night she was with Emilia, in her pajamas.

Thinking of Emilia wearing a nightdress that night, Rowan couldn't help but feel a little dry, in order not to let these distracting thoughts disturb him, Rowan directly covered the quilt, closed his eyes, and forcibly fell asleep.

And Sha You in the living room also came back to her senses when she sat down with the Nine Elves, and then went back to her room to sleep after a simple wash.

And so the night passed slowly.

The moon sets and the sun rises, and a new day in the imperial capital of the Pupil Cutting Empire opens again.

And in the next two days in the imperial capital, Luo Wen has been hearing the news of night raids in the imperial capital, and it seems that every night, a nobleman or official in the imperial capital will be killed by the night attackers, which makes some of those nobles and officials look panicked.

However, mixed with the news of these dead nobles or officials, there was a very special piece of news that came to Rowan's ears. That is, as a famous wealthy merchant in the imperial capital, Arya's family who bought a noble title with money and became a nobleman of the Cutting Pupil Empire.

All of them fell into a deep sleep in their own castle, including the soldiers and servants in their family's manor, as long as they lived in the manor.

And in this deep sleep, they all seemed to have suffered great pain or nightmares, and the expressions on their faces were extremely hideous and painful, but their bodies remained motionless as when they fell.

If it weren't for the strange situation in the manor that had been delivered to Arya's manor, it is estimated that Arya's family would still be sleeping in their own home, unknown to outsiders.

After being examined by all the top physicians in the Imperial Capital, all of them said that Arya's family, their soldiers, and servants had not suffered any physical injuries, nor had they shown any signs of magic or curses.

It's as if they're just falling into a normal sleep. But why they couldn't wake up, all the doctors couldn't answer.

So the officials had to put Arya's family in a medical hall for the time being, and wait for the doctors to continue to find out why Arya's family had this situation.

I heard that even the strongest researcher in the Empire of Slashing Pupils, Doctor Fashion, went to check on the situation of Arya's family in person. He seemed to be particularly interested in this kind of thing.

But late yesterday, word came out from the infirmary that Arya's family, including all the soldiers and servants on the manor, had died in an instant.

And when they died, their expressions were not at all like they had lost their lives, but rather like a sense of relief, and some of them even shed tears at the moment of death.

This made the doctors, who had been looking for the cause of this happen to Arya's family for three days, and the fashion doctor expressed great doubts and sighs. After all, after the death of Arya's family and these soldiers, servants.

The strange situation in them can no longer be studied, and now these people are just ordinary corpses, with no use or value.

And after Rowan learned the news, he only smiled slightly, he knew why Arya's family, those soldiers, and servants showed a relieved and relieved expression before they died.

That's because in the moment before they die, all the pain and suffering they go through will awaken their consciousness for a moment, and in that moment of wakefulness, they will be told that the pain they have endured has been completely experienced.
