Chapter 120: Hide Out
The place where Rudolph had parked his carriage was far away, deep in the forest, and even they could not see what was going on the road. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was only a moment before a loud noise was heard outside: "Burn these wizards!" "Burn the Wicked Witch of the East!" "Hang the Giant Wizard!" ...
It was not until the sound faded away from where they had come and that Rudolph drove the carriage out of the village along the road.
"The Wicked Witch of the East?" Snead smiled bitterly: "Cheng, you are probably the prototype of the evil witch of the East in "The Wizard of Oz"? ”
"Giant wizard?" The corners of Regel's mouth twitched: "This kid can really break blind." ”
In the European Middle Ages, when the average height of men was only about 1.65 meters, even Rudolph and Cheng Qianxun were extremely tall people, not to mention Sneijder and Regel.
Rudolph drove the carriage and said hatefully: "Now we are all in danger, damn little bastard!" You still don't believe me. ”
Regel immediately said, "In the end, I believe you!" ”
Rudolph laughed dryly: "You also rely on that kid's milky smell?" ”
"Of course not!" Regel also made sense: "There was no sign of a fight at the scene, unless Gordon was asleep. But Gordon is generally alert, and if you and the kid go to bed at night and move a little, he wakes up. If you are the murderer, then Gordon will definitely fight you. Gordon's ability is to see with his eyes closed, and even farther. So the only possibility that he would be stabbed to death with a defenseless knife is that he didn't see anything at all! ”
After Jeffrey became invisible, of course, he couldn't see anything, so Gordon was killed.
Thinking of Gordon's death, Cheng Qianxun sighed slightly: "We didn't have time to bury him." But it's not a big problem, those villagers can bury him. ”
"And he is also the victim of a wizard's murder, and the corpse has become the most favorable evidence!" Regel gritted his teeth.
Snead smiled wryly, "No, this kid is now weeping over the corpse of his "father", telling us about our cruelty. ”
The evidence was there, and the villagers would have believed in this "poor and unfortunate" child and hated them for being terrible witches.
I don't know where the road is, anyway, I just follow the place where there is a road, and leave the village first. Now the people of this place, everyone wants to catch them and hold up the bonfire, and watch them be burned with kerosene.
The road of the Middle Ages is not as easy to follow as imagined now, or it is original, which is in response to the saying "the more people walk, the more it becomes the road".
Legel was staggered upside down and said dissatisfiedly, "Oh my God, what could be worse than this? Even his voice trembled from the bumpy road.
As soon as he finished speaking, a branch fell from the tree, and struck the two horses right in front of him.
The horse stopped abruptly with a scream, and threw Cheng Qianxun, who was sitting in the back seat, to the front, but fortunately he was hugged by Sneijder, who was sitting opposite, so he didn't roll out.
"Woohhh Rudolph made a soothing sound from his mouth and tugged the reins to prevent the horse from pouting its front hooves.
"Thank you, thank you!" Cheng Qianxun struggled to get up from Sneijder's arms a little embarrassed, and his face turned slightly red.
But Sneijder was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, watched her get up, sat back, and then said, "You're welcome!" ”
The horse's mood calmed down, and Rudolph continued to let the horse go. There are no people behind, Europe at this time is already sparsely populated, a war, dispatch 20,000 or 30,000 people can be regarded as a major battle that can be written into history, only the holy war can be launched about 100,000 people. Poor living conditions, poor medical conditions, and killing and slashing and diseases and plagues, the entire European continent was about the same as the population of the Ming Dynasty at that time.
So as long as they can get out, they should be much faster than the church can issue a wanted warrant.
Regel sat and sighed slightly, and asked, "I don't know if we can go out." ”
"Boom~!" The horse stopped again.
"What's wrong?" Sneijder stood up and turned to ask.
"Can't get out!" Rudolph was very helpless.
There is a river in front of it, the river is in a deep valley, and there was originally a wooden bridge with ropes hanging on it, but somehow, the rope broke and the bridge collapsed. Looking down, there is a depth of about ten meters, and the river is hundreds of meters wide, and the water is turbulent.
"Regal!" Cheng Qianxun smiled bitterly: "When did your special ability become a crow's mouth, and you will come to things as soon as you speak?" ”
"Or a detour?" Rudolph twisted his body and asked for everyone's opinion.
"Let's take a detour!" Everyone agreed on a detour, which should be as far away from the villagers as possible.
The carriage turned around and walked along the riverbank, hoping to reach the next bridge.
Regel sighed softly: "This road is really difficult, but fortunately there is none... Before the rain could be spoken, Cheng Qianxun and Sneijder jumped up at the same time to cover his mouth.
The road became more and more difficult to walk, and finally it became a primeval forest, and if you wanted to get there, you had to throw the carriage. Rudolph could only stop: "Why don't you plan to spend the night, wait until tomorrow morning to go back, and see if you can go on the other side." If you can't do it anymore, you can only lead the horse on foot! ”
So everyone began to gather firewood to make a fire and prepare dinner.
Rudolph was able to bring the pot even when he ran away in a hurry, which was amazing. With a pot, you can cook things instead of roasting them; It can also boil hot water.
"I'll use the knife first, cut the bread!" Sneijder took the knife from Cheng Qianxun's hand.
She was using a knife to cut the cabbage and tomato and potato jerky into small pieces and put them in the water in the pot, when Legel picked up the firewood and crouched down to add it.
Regel looked up and saw the knife in Snyder's hand: "This knife won't be... ”
Now everyone's eyes were on the knife, and Sneijder also stopped, smiling bitterly. Don't be a murder weapon!
Rudolph, who was tidying up in the carriage, said: "Don't worry, no!" ”
Now I was relieved, cut the bread and put all the dishes in the pot. Rudolph walked over, took the knife from Cheng Qianxun's hand, and looked thoughtful: "It seems to be... I don't know. Anyway, I used it all! With that, he stuck the knife in the trunk of the tree on the side, leaving three stunned teammates.
The bread is hard, but luckily there is a vegetable soup with a little butter. It's very comfortable to eat hot.
It was almost time to sleep, obviously there wasn't enough quilt, and there was no mattress either.
Rudolph tried, but nothing appeared in his hand.
"What's going on?" He was also puzzled, so he looked at the knife still stuck in the trunk, and he stretched out his hand to try it. The knife immediately disappeared from the trunk of the tree, and appeared in his hand. He understood: "It turns out that there is a certain distance. ”
He tried a few more times, as if what he could see could be changed, but not what he couldn't see. He even got a hare that ran out of the hole on the other side of the river!
Rudolph grabbed the rabbit, immediately grabbed the knife in one hand and went to the side, and said, "At least there is one rabbit, and it proves that I didn't tell you last time." ”
The roast rabbit meat tasted very fragrant, and the four people ate it to their heart's content. It's a very happy thing to be able to be like this and to be alive.
It was getting darker and darker, and it was evident that I had to sleep in the carriage, or else on the somewhat wet wooded floor.
The campfire continued to burn, making "crackling" sounds from time to time.
Cheng Qianxun and Sneijder use a quilt; And Rudolph and Reeger leaned against each other. Both sides put their feet on the chair opposite each other so that their feet don't swell up after coming down overnight.
The back of the chair is stiff and there are no pillows. Cheng Qianxun sat up and changed his position. It seems that when I wake up tomorrow, I will definitely have a sore back.
Snead felt it, so he stretched out his arm and hugged her to his side, "It's more comfortable, isn't it?" ”
I want to refuse, but I can't. Cheng Qianxun simply relaxed: "Thank you, it's much better!" After thinking about it, she took off her coat, folded it and put it under Snead's neck, "How about this?" ”
"Thanks, much better." Sneijder smiled and hugged her.
What kind of men and women don't kiss, him off, as long as he can be comfortable now. Cheng Qianxun leaned into the crook of Sneiard's arm, his hands hooked on his body, the quilt covered them, and Rudolph and Regel's feet were on the left and right sides. In the same way, their feet rested on either side of the quilt opposite.
"I really don't want to go like this." Cheng Qianxun felt uncomfortable: "Let that little bastard enjoy alone in the manor." ”
"Not really!" Regel sneered: "He must be in the church now, because our property has all been confiscated." As an orphan, he was either adopted by wealthier farmers or sent to an orphanage set up by the Church. The food we ate tonight was probably not as good as what we ate. Only a slice of black bread, probably for the merits of his report, was smeared with a little butter or a small slice of meat at most. Now he must have slept in the stable and regretted it! ”
"Stables?" Rudolph was a little confused.
Regel couldn't help but laugh gloatingly: "Only nobles and clergy can sleep in beds, and even knights can only sleep in stinky stables, let alone the sons of grooms." ”
Everyone was happy now, whether it was true or fake, it was really relieving to think that this pampered little bastard could only sleep in the stable.
The smell of horses is quite strong, even if they tie the horses to the trunk of a tree under the wind, seven or eight meters away, the smell can still penetrate against the wind.
"Two-hour shifts, who is the first to work?" Rudolph asked. After Gordon's death, he invisibly succeeded Gordon, making various suggestions and orders.
"I'm on the first shift, I can't sleep anyway." Regel asked, "How do you count two hours?" ”
Rudolph looked at the fire: "The fire is almost burning, and when you need to add firewood." And the moon in the middle! ”
"Okay, got it!" Regel simply got out of the car and sat down by the campfire, which was warmer.
"Hurry up and go to sleep, or you will be on the second shift, so that you can sleep a little longer." Rudolph pulled his foot back and curled up in the seat opposite, wrapped in a quilt and slept.
"Sleep!" Sneijder covered the two of them with the quilt on it. Warm and authentic.
In Sneijder's warm embrace, there were teammates on duty, Cheng Qianxun closed his eyes and slept peacefully. (To be continued.) )
