Chapter 14: Robbers in the Forest

This forest is not ordinarily large, the trees on both sides reach into the sky, the branches are intertwined, and the branches and leaves are unusually lush, and only a few lights can penetrate through the gaps between the leaves. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Mondstadt had taken the two axes off his back, and the others had their hands on their scabbards, ready to meet their enemies.

I'm going to get a sword, and I'm on alert.

From time to time birds flew by in the silent forest, and the macaques in the trees kept staring at us, which made us feel nervous.

When we walked deep into the forest, we suddenly stopped. A man blocked our way, the man had long and messy black hair, a swarthy face, a black stubble with leftover grease on it, a wide waist, standing in a figure of eight, he was wearing a tattered folk uniform, carrying a giant sword on his shoulder, and at the moment his whole body revealed a strong murderous aura. The aura was so great that I couldn't breathe.

He suddenly took the sword from his shoulder, stuck it on the ground, and shouted at us, "Pick one of the people and goods." Mondstadt was evident in this situation, and he seemed calm and said to the man, "The people and goods are here, and if you have them, come and get them." ”

The man snorted, grabbed the hilt of the greatsword, stepped forward with his right foot, and then roared, and dragged the greatsword towards us, the giant sword slashed across the ground, leaving a three-inch crack.

A cold wind blew across his face, and the power frightened me, and when he reached Mondstadt's side, he followed the trend of his sword and raised it and smashed it at Mondstadt's head, and Mondstadt crossed his two axes to block the blow. The horse under his crotch fell to his knees with the force of the impact, and let out a neighing sound.

An arrow came from the forest on the right, and the target was me, and I had no time to react, so I could only tilt my body, and the arrow was stuck in my right arm, and I fell off my horse because of the recoil.

Bandits wearing scarves rushed out from all sides, spears in their hands, and the soldiers of the entire caravan immediately entered the battle mode, and the heavy cavalry drew their swords at their waists and prepared to make a close stop.

Mondstadt was tingled by the blow, and with great difficulty he ejected the man's greatsword, then jumped off his horse and slashed at him with his axe.

I was hit by the arrow, lying on the ground and trembling, but I still insisted on picking up the sword that fell on the ground, just as an enemy slashed at me, I gritted my teeth, raised the sword horizontally above my head, and blocked it with difficulty, but my body was also full of blood surges, a mouthful of blood reached my throat and eyes, and I swallowed it back alive.

There was another stabbing pain in my right arm, and the blood kept flowing down from it, and there was a hook at the tip of the arrow, so I couldn't pull it out, so I had to break the arrow outside.

The situation wasn't right for me, and I looked around to see that the caravan guards had mostly dismounted, and Mondstadt was pinned down.

Now I could only run, I found a direction, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, and got into the forest, and a few robbers saw me behind me and chased after me.

The blood flowed uncontrollably, and it was sprinkled on my way away, but it didn't work, they would find me. I looked up, it was full of leaves, the light shining through my face, a wave of vertigo invaded my brain, I didn't stand still, I fell to the ground.

A few figures in the distance slowly approached, I still had a gut at that time but I couldn't move anymore, they didn't kill me, but tied my hands with ropes, they tied them so hard that I couldn't help but scream.

Then they lifted me up and walked towards the battlefield, and with cold sweat on my forehead and a pale face, they threw me to the ground and shouted to the caravan guards in front of me, "Stop, don't let me kill him." ”

Everyone looked at me, and Mondstadt stopped what he was doing, and the man he was fighting with stepped back, put his foot on me, and said to Mondstadt, "I don't think you will let me kill him, he is not from your caravan, leave the goods, and I will spare his life." I opened my eyes with difficulty, lifted my head, and felt guilty as I watched Mondstadt's muscles bulge.

But Mondstadt agreed, and with a cold snort, the man grabbed me by the collar and lifted me up, kicked me again, and made me walk over on my own, feeling utterly ashamed. But I could only walk forward cheekily, and Mondstadt tapped me on the shoulder, but did not speak.

The goods were given to the bandits, our morale was low, and the responsibility for it all lay on me, and shame and guilt welled up in my heart. That night, I found Mondstadt, and I didn't dare to look up, and said to him, "It's up to me for today's events, and I'll repay you." He didn't blame me, and said to me, "It's not up to you, anyone will choose like me." Does your injury still hurt? I raised my head and said firmly, "I'll pay you back, I swear." ”

He just smiled and shook his head again.

We went out of the forest and walked west for another three days, during which time my wounds were almost healed, my arms were at least able to move, and after three days we finally reached our destination: Dehrim, the most magnificent city I had ever seen at that time, with huge gates blocking undesirable people, and inside the gates were residential areas, and the houses of the people were luxurious and tall, and it was not surprising to see the roofs made of gold, the eaves carved with diamonds, and the street market in the back, and even those who bought vegetables could open buildings, not to mention weapons merchants and armor merchants.

Mondstadt took me to a dimly lit alley, and he said to me, "Vain introduced you to Vader as a good man, so be careful with him." As soon as he finished speaking, a short and fat man came out from the other end of the alley, his face was full of fat, his belly was as big as that of a pregnant woman, he looked like he had too much wine and meat, he walked eight steps, and walked towards me with a trembling look, looking extremely arrogant, I nodded, and said to Mondstadt beside me, "I like this fat man the most." Vader looked at me with contempt on her face and asked, "You were introduced by Siva, you are not very old, why are you still a little white face?" “

I laughed, grabbed the fat man's hand and flipped it around, and he immediately screamed in pain, and I increased my strength and said, "The little white face still hits you." He quickly saw that the wind was making the rudder, and quickly nodded yes.

I let go of him, and kicked him in the ass again, and he stumbled and almost fell to the ground, and he turned his head, but with a lewd smile on his face, he said to me: "It is worthy of the distinguished guest invited by Chief Siva, and it is really extraordinary, come, please here, please show you what I have accomplished in Dehrim over the years." "I was very curious to follow him, when I came to a strange country, I naturally needed a guide, and Humpty Dumpty in front of me was the best candidate.
