94 comrades-in-arms reunited
"I see. ”
As Daly told her husband's name, Wei Ken instantly remembered Dali's identity. She was Joseph's wife, and she was the one who redeemed her.
"Mr. Wei, your kindness, Dai Li has always kept in mind. Dai Li's serious gaze made Wei Ken's eyes dodge slightly.
It's embarrassing that the other party regards himself as a benefactor, and he doesn't take the other party to heart at all, or even forgets about it directly......
Wei Ken nodded slightly: "It's nothing, Dali, if there's nothing to do, let's leave first." ”
"Ahh
But after a moment of silence...... Dai Li looked at Wei Ken, who was leaving with Shirt Xue, and hurriedly stayed.
"Mr. Wei, please wait a minute!" Dai Li stopped the two, "Actually, we know something about the affairs of the young lady's family......"
"The general was wronged. Wei Ken turned back and said solemnly, "He was framed by the nobles. ”
"This ......," Dai Li was stunned and said with a wry smile, "No, that's not what I meant! It's just that Joseph has been sad for a long time with the news that you died in battle, and he wants to see you again." ”
Joseph...... That lame guy......
"After all, they are comrades-in-arms. Wei Ken smiled slightly, "It's okay, I'll go ......."
At this time, Xue Xue took Weken's hand.
"Huh?"
"Is she worth trusting?" asked Xue in a low voice.
There was a hint of coldness in her eyes, and the color of vigilance was thick. She didn't trust the people here, and there weren't many people here who could trust her.
The former comrades-in-arms died on the battlefield, and the remaining people did not have much friendship, so it is difficult to say whether anyone will betray their former comrades-in-arms for profit. Not to mention, some people are not even comrades-in-arms.
"Your suggestion?" Wei Ken frowned slightly, and asked Xue Xue in a low voice.
"Kill. ”
Xue Xue glanced at Dai Li and whispered a suggestion to Wei Ken.
At this time, Dai Li was a little curious about the whispers of the two people in front of her. Little did she know that her life had been put on the scales. On this scale, as long as her "weight" is insufficient, then she will fall into a catastrophe.
"No, don't cause trouble. Observe first, let me meet Joseph, and then decide. Wei Ken sighed, "I know I should be cautious, but even if I came here to rob prisons and kill people, I don't want to swing a sword at my comrades. ”
The coldness on Xue Xue's face was swept away, and she smiled knowingly: "I understand." Wecan, you're really different from those aristocrats. I'm glad you're my compatriot. ”
Wei Ken didn't answer, just nodded, and greeted Dali who was waiting.
"Then, ma'am, please take me to Joseph. Wei Ken thought for a moment, recalling the elegant gestures of the nobles in his impression, "The ins and outs of the matter are a bit long, let me and Joseph have a good get-together." ”
"Yes, Mr. Wei!" Dai Li smiled, "Well, you can call me Dai Li!"
"Okay. ”
Weken nodded slightly.
"Wei Ken, you look like this......" Xue Xue watched from the side, her eyes revealing great incredulity, "I didn't expect you to be able to say such beautiful words?"
"I feel like I've always been good at my words. ”
......
He followed Daly out of the city and toward the location of Joseph's house as Wiken remembered.
It was a farmhouse with a small vegetable patch, on a hillside a little further from the road. I remember that it was because the previous owner was going to move into the city, so I put it up for sale. The price is very cheap, and the only drawback is that it is too far away from the irrigation water source, and if you need water in the house, you have to carry a bucket through a vegetable field to a well under the hillside to get water.
One way to do this is to draw water through magic, but that's too unrealistic for the average person. Another way is to build water towers to divert water, which are cheaper but not cheaper. Not to mention the demand for land space for the water tower, which is too large compared to this farmhouse.
Relying on manpower has become the most appropriate method.
The farmhouse is not very large, in a two-story house with two rooms at the bottom and an attic upstairs. With the upper hall and kitchen, it is suitable for a family of three at most. This is the marriage room for Joseph and the two of them, and it is enough to have a child in the future.
"Mr. Wei, please take a seat! And this one, you, please ...... too" Dai Li beckoned Wei Ken and the two into the hall and began to prepare some things for the reception.
"Her name is Xue Xue. Weken nodded, lifted his hood, and sat down naturally in a wooden chair.
"Hello. Xue Xue sat down calmly, hesitated for a moment, and lifted her hood.
"Ahh ”
"Nothing, I'm used to it. Xue Xue waved her hand, indicating that she didn't care.
"What kind of person would do such a thing?" Dai Li regretted a little, "If there is no such thing, she must be a very beautiful girl...... Sorry......"
"I did it myself, and I don't need to apologize. Xue Xue's eyes were calm, and there was no sadness at all.
Her grief exists, but the only thing she shows is a brief period of time in that ice cave. She is very strong, very stubborn, even if she is physically and mentally exhausted and bruised, she is unwilling to show her weakest side to others. In the past ten years, the only time she has been weak has been when she is facing her only "compatriot".
Weken looked at her quietly, and finally shook his head.
Let's put this question aside for now, the main purpose now is Lizlit's rescue.
"By the way, Dalie, what about Joseph and the others?" Weken shifted the conversation away from the scars on Jersey's face.
"Joseph still has to go to work in the barracks, and now the barracks are already ...... after that kind of thing," Dali lamented, "if there was no war, everyone should be alive and well." ”
"Why, then, does the barracks still exist? I think the Arewa Legion to the east doesn't seem to like this Legion to the west, right?"
Not only this incident, but also the rumored assassination of Mayor Gulf. Such a western legion can be regarded as a group of dragons without a leader, and it can be seen from the loose sentry posts that the meaning of its existence has basically disappeared.
"Well, I'm sorry, Mr. Wei, I don't know about this. Dali shook her head helplessly, "Joseph, he should know better, right? Why don't you wait here for a while, I'll prepare some snacks for you first? Joseph, he'll be back for lunch at noon." ”
"Okay, I'm tired. Weken nodded.
Glancing at Dai Li's departing figure, Xue Xue looked at Wei Ken.
"No, don't act rashly, I am willing to believe in my comrades-in-arms, and believe in the wives of my comrades-in-arms. ”
"Yes. ”
Time passed as Daly kept telling about her and Joseph's lives, and Weken listened silently, smiling from time to time.
Unexpectedly, Joseph's guy is doing quite well. Now he has become the number one person in charge of managing logistics in the barracks.
Around noon.
"Daly, I'm back!" Joseph's voice rang out outside, and he pushed the door open and entered, taking off his coat as he grumbled, "Really, I'm so tired that those little cubs can't even count......!
He froze, and looked at the hall at Weken, who was smiling at him, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.
"We, Weken?" Joseph limped and walked away, reaching out to grab Wecan.
But he shook his head anyway and rubbed his eyes with both hands.
"Could it be a hallucination...... Joseph's eyes glistened with tears.
"I'm alive. Weken smiled, stood up, and nodded earnestly.
"Weken!"
"Joseph!"
Joseph threw his coat away, picked up a tiger, and laughed.
"Hahaha! You guy is alive, still alive!"
"Well, I'm still alive......" Wei Ken nodded slightly.
The joy of reuniting old friends is just like that.
And just as Joseph was about to say something, his face changed suddenly: "Weken, it's not safe here, it's very unsafe, you shouldn't choose this time to come back." And who is that?"
"Okay, okay, Joseph, you sit down first, and we'll talk slowly. Wei Ken's face changed.
