Chapter Forty-Seven: The Depressed Fortress of the Long Wind

It turns out that in the world where Faulkner existed, good and evil were not judged by appearances.

In that world, many necromantic cultivators even went to war with their former companions in order to protect their clansmen, and of course, there were also holy priests who sold their souls to demons.

Faulkner would subconsciously attribute a person to the neutral side before he found out that he was doing evil, so his perception of Mavis was only superficial, and through the projection he saw in the summoning world, he even felt that Mavis should be positioned on the side of good and orderly, of course, provided that what he saw was true.

And the reason why Faulkner suddenly woke up and stopped attacking Lin Xiu was also very simple, because he didn't find the demonic aura on Lin Xiu's body, he had seen the 'Lin Xiu' side before, and he had seen the monstrous evil aura.

Of course, if Lin Xiu was really the son of the demon, he wouldn't see the sun tomorrow.

"Brother, why did you take this fat man on the road?" Mei Weisi looked at Lin Xiu dissatisfied.

As soon as they walked out of Hammond's West Gate, the temperature of the air immediately dropped, and everyone put on their furs.

Mayvis deliberately summoned two bone warriors in front of Faulkner's eyes, trying to lure Faulkner into action, but Faulkner kept talking to someone as if he hadn't seen it, just like that annoying Wren.

"Young man, are you religious? If you join the Holy See now, I still have a newbie benefit here, what color missionary uniform do you want? You choose one, and I will make it for you overnight. ”

"Do you have a cloth?"

"No, eh, don't go so fast! I haven't finished speaking, I can go to Lord Lin Xiu to borrow it!"

"Shameless fat man..."

Lin Xiu looked at Faulkner who was looking for people to lobby everywhere and whispered, just now this fat man was shouting and shouting to kill himself, and now he actually paid attention to his head, which was completely shameless.

Turning around, Lin Xiu replied to Mei Weisi's question: "Isn't Changfeng Fortress causing a plague?" It just so happened that this fat man is a priest profession, so he brought him along, so he was a fourth-order existence, wouldn't it be too wasteful not to use it." ”

"Oh. Mei Weisi inhaled in her mouth and bulged out her support, not very satisfied with Lin Xiu's explanation.

The road from Hammond to Fort Long Wind is a grassland, but now that the grass has turned into a golden light, it seems quite relaxing at first glance, but after watching it for a long time, it is more or less aesthetically tiring.

The crowd stopped and went, and finally arrived at the Fortress of the Wind on the morning of the third day after their departure.

The walls of the Wind Fortress are 8 meters high, and this is a barrier set up to prevent the monsters of the Great Blue Forest from attacking the Wind Fortress.

When they came to the city gate, the two soldiers who were leaning against the city wall, shrunk into a ball and even threw their weapons aside, saw Lin Xiu and his party walking slowly, and immediately raised their weapons and stopped in front of Lin Xiu: "Who are you?"

"We're here from Hammond. Lin Xiu handed over the entrance fee he had prepared earlier to the other party.

"Hammond?" One of the slightly thinner soldiers looked Lin Xiu's clothes up and down, bearskin coat and cowhide boots, which were not at all worn by ordinary people, but this had nothing to do with them, their responsibility was only to collect the entrance fee to the city, and the soldier still kindly reminded: "There has been a plague in the fortress recently, you better go back to Hammond as soon as possible after you finish your business." ”

"Thank you. ”

Lin Xiu waved his hand, and the group entered the fortress.

The fortress road was lined with two-story black stone houses, and some people spied on them from behind the windows on the second floor, and occasionally encountered a few passers-by, who also hid their heads under their hoods, and walked as fast as if something was chasing them behind them.

There is no life at all.

"What kind of plague is that, how can a good fortress become like this?" Sawyer had come to the Long Wind Fortress once six months ago, when there were many people doing business on the streets, and the doors of those shops were still open, and it had only been half a year before it became a dead city.

Hearing the word plague, the passers-by immediately rushed into the alley and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Did I say something wrong?" Sawyer looked blankly at the boxes where passers-by had disappeared.

"It's still important to pay attention to talking here, they're all frightened birds now, but didn't Sinclair say that he was going to take the patient to Hammond before? he left a day earlier than us, hasn't he arrived yet?" Lin Xiu looked around suspiciously, but there was no one on the street, and he didn't know who to ask about Sinclair's whereabouts.

"The people here are not friendly at all. "Wren loves flowers and compliments, and the fact that people here are hiding at home makes him feel particularly bored.

"We need to find someone to ask. ”

Lin Xiu had already regarded those villagers who had suffered from the Black Death as his own subjects, and if he left like this, he would not be willing to think about it.

"These people are hiding in their homes, who are you looking for?, the soldiers guarding the city gates?" Wren pouted.

"It's not them, we're looking for someone. ”

Lin Xiu pointed ahead, and a ten-strong ironclad guard stepped on the gravel on the ground, making a clattering sound, and walked towards them.

"Outsiders?" the ironclad guards led by him looked at Lin Xiu through the cross gap in his helmet.

Lin Xiu was just about to speak, when the ironclad guard waved his hand: "Leave quickly after the matter is done, now there is a plague in the fortress, if you are infected with the plague, you will not be able to leave." ”

The ironclad guards led by him were about to leave, and Lin Xiu hurriedly stopped the other party: "Wait, I want to ask where are those people infected with the plague?"

The ironclad guards led by him stopped and turned to look at Lin Xiu: "Your relatives are inside, it's useless, the best healer in the fortress has already gone to see it, but in the end, that healer was also infected with the plague, don't try to contact them, I believe you definitely don't want to see them now." ”

Lin Xiu was speechless for a while, he didn't say anything, this ironclad guard said a lot of things that were not there.

"I don't have any relatives in it, but my men have healed a patient who had been replaced by the plague, he came out of the fortress of the wind, and he said that he would send other patients to my village. Lin Xiu said.

The ironclad guards finally began to look at Lin Xiu with straight eyes: "May I ask who Your Excellency is?"

"Hammond's village chief, Lin Xiu. ”

"So Sinclair, that madman is telling the truth?" the ironclad guard lowered his head, as if thinking about something.

"Crazy?"

"Yes, the madman escaped with the plague while the guards were changing, but he came back last night, and he proclaimed that he had been cured in Hammond, and that he was now cured, in the hope of attracting the attention of the nobles, that all other people who had the plague should go with him to Hammond for treatment. The ironclad guard said.

"Then where is he now?" Lin Xiu asked.

"Lord Dawn thinks Sinclair's words are untrue, and we have brought them under control in order not to panic the civilians of the fortress. The ironclad guard pointed to the castle in the center of the fortress and said to Lin Xiu, "It's there, in the Marquis's mansion. ”
