It will be late, the noisy Nanyang Port has not calmed down, but it is more lively, the wharf and the street are full of hawkers selling goods, the reason why it is so lively is mainly because the weather in Nanyang Port is hot, especially when the sun hangs in the sky during the day, it can simply dry people, until the sun sets, this will feel cooler, so those who nest at home to escape the heat have also come out, and the traders naturally have to seize the time to do business.

Gerry picked up the towel on his shoulder and wiped his sweat, then took the bread and change handed by the vendor opposite and turned around and left, although it was not the first time to spend money to buy things, but he was still very strange in his heart, why the Song people could treat paper as money, although this kind of paper is very beautifully made, but no matter how beautiful it is, it is just paper, how can it be compared with gold and silver?

I couldn't understand the reason, so I stopped thinking about it, and began to sort out the situation I heard today, but I kept passing through the alleys at all under my feet, and finally came to a very dilapidated yard, and when he came to the door, he didn't push the door directly, but knocked on the door a few times with a special technique outside, and finally there was a sound inside, and then the door was opened, and Gerry immediately squeezed into the door, and then the door was immediately closed.

"Gerry, why did you go so long and come back?" As soon as Gerry entered, he immediately saw a bearded man with brown hair and blue eyes asking him anxiously.

"I went to earn some money and bought some bread back, no matter what, we have to eat enough, otherwise how can we have the strength to save people?" Grill explained as he raised the bread in his hand.

Seeing the dough, the brown-haired beard's eyes immediately lit up, and he grabbed a piece of dough and stuffed it into his mouth, but because he ate it too hard, he was choked and rolled his eyes. Fortunately, there were other people in the yard, so they hurriedly brought him a kettle, and the bearded man poured a few mouthfuls before exclaiming, "It's delicious, it's the first time I've found that the dough is so delicious!" ”

It wasn't that the bread was delicious, but that he was so hungry that the rest of the people in the courtyard came out. Gerry handed out the bread, and with the eighteen men in all, he only bought eighteen breads, which he had to work for half a day to get in exchange for, although the bread was very coarse, and it was said that this kind of bread was made from a fruit from a tree, and it tasted a little sour, but it could barely satisfy his hunger.

"Gerry, did you hear anything today?" At this time. A tall, middle-aged man covered in blood asked Gerry as he slowly ate the dough. This middle-aged man's name is Frus, the leader of their group, in order to escape from the human trafficker Hu San, they launched a surprise attack on the dock, but although they escaped in the end, many people were injured, and Frus was to protect his brothers. He was slashed seven times, if it weren't for his strong body. I'm afraid it would have fallen long ago by now.

"I've got some very useful news!" Gerry heard Frus's inquiry and immediately spoke, "I have been monitoring the trafficker who held His Highness Agnes before, and yesterday His Highness was bought by a young man and taken away from the trafficker, and now he lives in a small courtyard near the port, I originally wanted to get close and rescue His Highness, but I found that the courtyard was heavily guarded. I couldn't get any closer, and this morning I went to spy around that yard again, but I didn't expect to alarm the guards there, and I was almost caught by them. ”

Gerry's people were Agnes' guards, and these people were originally captured by Hu San along with Agnes. Originally, when they were in the port, they launched a surprise attack and wanted to escape with Agnes, but there were too many people under Hu San at that time, and Agnes was not imprisoned with them, so they couldn't take Agnes away in the chaos, plus the guards of the port were about to arrive, seeing that they were about to be wiped out, but at this time, Florus gave up the plan to rescue Agnes very decisively, and took people to escape first and then make plans, this broken courtyard is their temporary place to stay.

"Who is the other party, who has such strict protection?" Hearing this, Florus couldn't help but ask in a deep voice, when he fled from Europe, the people responsible for protecting Agnes had a guard, and there were three other big ships, but after escaping from the sea, most of them died in various shipwrecks, and in the end they only had one boat and dozens of people left, when they encountered pirates at sea before, most of the people on board were killed in battle, and now there are only a dozen of them left, and it is even more difficult to rescue Agnes in a foreign land like Nanyang Port.

"I inquired this afternoon, the owner of that courtyard is from an extraordinary background, it is said that he is the servant of a certain nobleman of the Great Song Dynasty, he is mainly here to run some business for the nobleman, and it is said that the nobleman is very powerful, just a servant has become a famous big man in Nanyang Port, and the location of the courtyard is also not good, surrounded by the families of the naval officers of the Great Song Dynasty, and there are people patrolling the streets non-stop, so it is very difficult to rescue His Royal Highness Agnes from there." Gerry took a sip of water at this time, and among the eighteen people who were alive, only his Song dialect was the best, and he was not injured, so the task of inquiring about the news naturally fell to him.

Hearing the news that Gerry heard, Florus and the others all frowned, although they had just entered the Nanyang Port, but as an excellent knight, they had collected all the information about the local area as much as possible, so they also knew that this Nanyang Port was an enclave belonging to the Great Song Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty was the destination of their trip, but according to their plan, they should have protected His Royal Highness Agnes to reach the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, and then made plans, but now they were in trouble here in the Nanyang Port, They couldn't find anyone to ask for help, and they didn't trust anyone, so they had to rely on themselves.

After a long silence, Phoros, as the leader, finally spoke again: "As a knight, it is a great shame to be unable to protect the safety of His Highness Agnes, so no matter how difficult it is, we must not back down!" ”

When Phorus said these words, it was as if he was cheering for Gerry and for himself, so after he finished speaking, there was a resolute look on his face, and then he commanded again: "Gerry." You take a rest tonight, Amank and the two of them continue to monitor the courtyard, and tomorrow after dawn, Gerry will go to find out the news and find out the opportunity to rescue His Highness Agnes as soon as possible! ”

Frus is the leader of Gerry's people and their spiritual pillar, so after seeing him make a decision. Everyone was also shaken by the spirits, and the belief in rescuing Agnes was stronger, after all, people are blindly obedient, especially in this kind of helpless foreign land, they need a leader more, and Fraus happens to be the best candidate for the leader.

Amank was the blue-eyed bearded man who had snatched the dough from Gerry's hand earlier, and after eating the dough, he left with two people who were not seriously injured. Originally, Amank's impatient personality was not the best person to go out. It's just that most of the people in Fraus and the rest are injured, and it's really inconvenient to go out, so they can only let Amanke and them go, as for the language barrier, it's nothing, anyway, Amanke They only need to monitor from a distance, they don't have to deal with people, and there are merchants from all over the country here in Nanyang Port, and many people don't understand Song dialect. So as long as Amank is careful, he shouldn't arouse the suspicion of others.

But what Florus never expected was this. After the three of them left, they were supposed to return the next morning, but the next morning they didn't even see a single figure, which made him and his men very anxious, and they all gathered in the courtyard to discuss.

"Gerry, Amank hasn't come back so late. Was there something wrong? Fruses frowned and asked, Gerry said yesterday that he had alerted the guards inside when he was monitoring that courtyard, and he was almost caught by the other party, so he sent Amanque to bring two more people. Although Amank is a little impatient, he is very alert, and he is infinitely powerful, if it is in terms of ability, he should be the first among the eighteen of them, so he is relieved to send the other party out, so that even if he is discovered, he can escape.

"In my estimation, Amank is likely to have been discovered by the other party, but with his ability, he shouldn't have been caught by the other party, shouldn't it be that they were in a panic when they fled and couldn't find a way back?" Although Gerry's words seem to be a bit child's play, but it is the truth, firstly, they have just come to Nanyang Port, and they are not familiar with the terrain here, and secondly, Nanyang Port is a new port, although it has been carefully planned, but the roads in many places seem to be a little arbitrary, especially like the place where they live, it is also a slum area of Nanyang Port, and the streets and alleys are like spider webs, and you may get lost if you are not careful.

As soon as Gerry's words fell, he heard a strange knock at the courtyard door, which was the knocking code they agreed with Amanke, which made Florus and the others feel relieved, Gerry hurriedly ran to open the door, but as soon as the door opened, he heard Gerry exclaim: "Amanke, why are you injured?" ”

Hearing Gerry's exclamation, Florus and the others were also startled, only to see that at this time, Amank and the three of them also followed Gerry into the courtyard, only to see that the three of them looked a little embarrassed, everyone had blood stains on their bodies, and everyone was very tired, it seemed that they had escaped after a period of fighting.

"Florus, the other side has strengthened the defense again, we just got there last night, we were discovered by the other party, and finally we managed to escape, in order to prevent someone from following us, we walked around the city all night before we dared to come back." Amank limped over and said, his face was full of chagrin, in fact, he had some words that he did not tell the truth, that is, they should have come back a long time ago, but after a few circles around the city, they actually got lost, and it was not until after dawn that they finally found their way back.

"It seems that the young man who took away His Highness Agnes has an unusual identity, and in just half a day, he has added guards again, so it will be even more difficult for us to rescue His Highness." Hearing this, Fras couldn't help but be very distressed, the other party had more and more guards, but he only had these eighteen people in his hands, and most of them were injured, which made even a person with a tough character feel a little discouraged.

"Florus, we can't wait any longer, I think we will sneak over and rescue His Highness quietly tonight, otherwise there will be no chance in the future." At this time, Amanke said a little impatiently, he had already felt very aggrieved by the failure to rescue Agnes on the dock before, and now he could only watch His Royal Highness Agnes being bought and sold as a slave, which was definitely a great shame for a knight like him, so even if he lost his life, he was unwilling to endure this shame again.

"No! The other party has found us twice, and will definitely strengthen the guard again, with our current manpower, not only can we not save His Highness, but will all die here, if we get there, His Royal Highness Agnes will no longer have any hope, do you want to see His Royal Highness Agnes here as a slave girl for a lifetime? Phorus objected sharply at this time, he was not afraid of death, as a loyal knight, life and death had long been out of his mind, otherwise he would not have left everything behind and fled here with Agnes, for him, the most important thing now is to save Agnes, and they are the only hope for His Royal Highness Agnes, so they must not die.

Hearing Fruce's reprimand, especially hearing that His Royal Highness Agnes, whom he protected, was being bought and sold like a slave girl, this made Gerry, Amank and the others all look angry and humiliated.

Phorus also knew that his words were a bit heavy, but if he didn't say this, he was afraid that these subordinates of his would run desperately with a hot head, which would not only not save His Highness Agnes, but would only harm him. Thinking of this, I saw Vrus speak again: "Okay, this is not Europe, and the identity of Her Highness Agnes is useless here, so we can only rely on our own strength to save her." Gerry, you continue to go out to find out the news, by the way, earn some money to buy some food, and the rest of the people can recuperate from their injuries with peace of mind, only by recovering from their injuries, can we exert our greatest strength, and I also believe that the courtyard where His Highness Agnes lives cannot always maintain such vigilance, we will always find an opportunity! ”

Hearing Frus's words, Gerry immediately agreed, and then turned around and prepared to go out, Amank and the others also sat down helplessly to rest, but just as Gerry opened the door, he suddenly exclaimed, and then slowly retreated, but at this time he had two steel knives around his neck.
