Chapter 37: Indian Apothecary
Here, the bonfires by the river were dotted and lit as brightly as day, and the captured Paulish servants were silently staying in the new camp, using the timber and wicker cut by the servants of the Dalian army to make simple boats, this kind of mixed material boats, very common in the Danube region, mostly made by the Slavs, the craftsmanship is simple, the hull itself is not bad, anyway, it is enough to go up and down the tributary rivers.
Gawain was very satisfied, so he comforted Andreev a few words, and said to Androdart, who was beside him, "You stay here at night, count the number of heretic believers, even if you don't pay for it, but you still have to have enough food and water, and when it's done, you will be rewarded with some drinks, and you can dismiss everything they can." So the confidential secretary who obeyed the order went to Andreev's tent with a file case, and he had a lot of chores to attend to in the past two days.
Then, accompanied by twelve warriors of the guard, Gawain led his horse back to the large camp of Iron Gate Fort, "Why are you all standing outside the tent? When he came to the tent door and tied the horses, he looked curiously at Giovanni, Muzafiadin and others and asked, among them, Muzafiadin was already holding his robe and blanket, and "consciously" leaned against the edge of the stable, "Everything is the same as before, last time you said that you were spying on the silk business with the golden-haired widow, and it took a night to talk about the results." The Turkic servant muttered inwardly, and Sabina poked her head out and stared at her master with a watery look in her eyes.
"Yes, Your Excellency, just come back, and the contemptible man will go to the sentry." Giovanni bowed his head and bowed, and then lit torches with the two guards and left, followed by Gawain.
Gawain muttered a few words, and then walked into the tent.
As a result, Kabeamiya was seen handcuffed to a pillar wrapped in the hide, and the other hand was held on her own pendant. Tiredly folded his legs tightly, covered with skirts, sitting on a bear blanket gifted by Cuman Khan, his eyes covered by his black hair, looking at himself in panic and resentment, "Dogs who have turned their backs on Cigna! β
Gawain was stunned. Then he looked left and right, thought about it, and immediately understood, so he took off the sword of phosphorus and fire, placed it by the blanket, and took off the armor for himself.
"I'd rather die" Seeing the other party's action like this, Kabeamia suddenly cried.
No, there are killer moves, and there are killer moves. She remembered the Indian potion in the pendant around her neck, which was more powerful than hashish resin, and Gawain only asked someone to confiscate her weapon, not infringe on her private property, but this hallucinogenic potion can only be used to attack, not to kill herself! Drinking it will not be fatal, but it will be nervous and ugly. Still have to find a way to use it against Gawain's lewd beast - at this point, the net is simply broken. Kabeamia no longer wept, but stared at the place where the sword of phosphorus and fire was, "I was able to embarrass you so much by killing a dog with this sword, and today I will kill you, the man who betrayed the promise, like a dog, to see what this magic sword can bring." Maybe it will protect me from the rest of my life. β
After saying that, Cabeamiya pulled her hair with her uncuffed hands, and then looked at Gawain who was walking towards her with affection, just like the hapless Duke who had deceived Guz before. The other side. Between his fingers, he quietly caught the potion shell on the pendant, ready to deliver a blow, and when Gawain's demeanor collapsed, he grabbed his sword and killed him. Thinking that the capital had to be lowered, in the end, she even took the initiative to slide down the corners of her skirt that was originally tightly covered, revealing a graceful demeanor, slender feet, and wheat-colored skin were particularly tempting under the firelight.
As a result, Gawain, who was wearing a sweatshirt without armor, lifted the sword of phosphorus fire again, and raised it high, facing her, and the blue light of the blade shone on her eyes, frightening Kabeamia to think that Gawain was not trying to insult her, but to execute herself.
Why, why not play according to the play! Kabeamiya instantly collapsed and blurted out, "Don't kill me, I'm willing to be your sister and give you the honor of the Holy Descendant." Then she screamed and lowered her head, only to see the blue light staggered, with the sound of metal shattering - Gawain used the blade of the Sword of Phosphorus Fire to pin the shackles open, because it was too much trouble to ask Giovanni for the key.
But under the fright, Kabeamia's other hand subconsciously contracted and clenched, crushing the shell, spraying the potion everywhere, and a few drops splashed into his mouth
Gawain then helped her up, "What do you have on your hair and cheeks?" β
But Kabeamia's face was flushed, and she felt that there were many crazy fish surging in her body, stirring up waves of madness, and her hand grabbed Gawain's strong shoulder, her head hung in the crook of his arm, and her breathing became short, and she kept saying, "I, I accidentally ingested something like Hashish, or it will be bad"
What the hell did the Indian merchant at the mouth of the Danube give her? If it was Hashsh resin or something, she would have been in a state of madness and fainting by now, but this kind of thing only made her blood boil, and I don't know if it was a psychological hallucination or a real medicinal effect, that is, what made her extremely ashamed was that she wanted to snuggle up and hug Gawain!
Then, Cabeamia's cheeks were like red flames, and she couldn't help but approach Gawain, scratching his neck, hoping to burn with him, "Fall to ashes with me." She muttered, but her devotion to the Lord of Light was still pulling her closer to her sanity, so she hadn't done anything too shameful.
Gawain knew in his heart that what Kabeamia had just eaten by mistake should have been made with Indian hemp leaves, fungi and spices (the poor consul didn't know at the time that the merchant had sold her this kind of thing), but it was not a big problem, it only promoted secretion, and the intake was not much, so the Grand Duke took the materials directly from the place, grabbed a pot, pulled open the silver teeth of Kabeamia, and poured it in.
Now Cabeamia first tilted her head, and when Gawain threw the pot grunt, she continued to sit in this position, and in a few moments her shoulders and legs twitched, and her throat rolled, and she looked very embarrassed, and Gawain picked her up with the crook of his arm, and quickly walked out of the tent, and then lay her on his knees to steady herβand then Kabeamia was at the manger by the tent, hanging her head and hair, and vomiting all the time.
Gawain also kept "snapping" and patting her back, "Spit more, vomit more, and I'll be sober immediately." β
At this time, Mu Zafei Adin, who had been resting against the fence of the stable, turned his hands back, slowly helped himself to stand up, looked at this scene in disbelief, and asked, "Grand Duke, why did you get this female consul to such a point?" β
"Get some water." Gawain shouted at him harshly.
Here, Kabeamia's head continued to hang, she couldn't vomit anymore, the night breeze of early autumn came, and the heat wave of her forehead and body quickly dissipated, but the humiliation in her heart swelled up, and tears fell like pearls, so she buried her head in front of Gawain's knees until she made a choked nasal voice, "Gawain, you are the devil, you are the devil I can't redeem"
"Don't be in a hurry to speak." Gawain said to her with the same sternness, and then with a little tenderness, he pushed Kabeamia's delicate back, "Slowly adjust your breathing, it's okay, no one else in the camp has witnessed it." β
"What did you just give me a drink?" This is Kabeamia's second question.
Gawain didn't answer, just hesitated, "You don't need to ask in such detail, it's expedient to save people, and you can't care so much." β
As a result, Cabeamia cried even more sadly, for the mare poked her head out of the fence again, and chirped triumphantly, as if to tell the archons the true answer
After tossing for almost half an hour, Kabeamiya leaned back on the pillar of the tent, holding a jar of water and sipping, her eyes were a little loveless, "Fortunately, the bear blanket is not dirty." Gawain washed his hands on the washstand over there and said, like a doctor who had just finished surgery, "A woman like you is too vicious, this is a lesson." Also, your sin lies in not trusting the Grand Duke enough, and as a result, you have been counterattacked. β
Seeing that it was not good to pursue the poor man again, Gawain became a little kinder and said, "Don't think about running away and doing harmful, I will give you the tent tonight, and you will sleep on this blanket, and it should not be cold." Then Muzafiadin walked in, looked at the front and back, and handed a simple women's dress to the Grand Duke, and Gawain threw it in front of Kabeamia, signaling that she could change into it, and the original dress and skirt were already dirty.
"My servants will take men with men to watch over you outside the tent, as they do to protect me." After saying this, Gawain saluted the female consul and left.
"Don't pretend to be, if you hadn't tried to assault me, how would you have arranged for someone to handcuff me to a pillar! You are the one who broke Cigna. Kabeamia questioned with tears in her voice.
This made Gawain pause, "It's true that some fools have made mistakes, whether it's Giovanni or Wright, or Ander Odart, I will punish them, but this incident has also exposed your criminal conspiracy, you were going to use that potion to harm me, didn't you." But then Gawain frowned, "It's not right, if I get this potion, then it won't be"
"It's me who bought the wrong potion, that bastard Indian businessman, I'm going to send him to our hell!" Kabeamia couldn't take it anymore and cried out in distraction, then hugged her head, trying to wake up from the nightmare as quickly as possible. (To be continued.) )
