Chapter 1 The Gate of Desire Section 10 Refugees in the Valley of the Stars
On the third day after Unqi decided to leave Fog Rose Town, he had already quietly repaired the Amorphous Flying Boat, and used the hundred Fire Agate coins left by Cage to buy the map of Xinglan Ancient Land, and prepared enough rations on the road, so that he could set sail with the wind at any time.
That morning, Unqi danced his eight-sided iron sword in his room. Within a week, his body had healed, and although there was still some dull pain, it was no longer a major problem. Unqi planned to leave this night without saying goodbye, maybe he should go to the Misty Rose Manor and find the Abyss Demon Refining Demon Naomi to settle an old account, but that guy seemed unfathomable, and Unqi didn't want to send himself into the tiger's mouth.
A mercenary knocked on the door and said to Unki, "Stranger, Mr. President, please come and discuss the matter." ”
Unqi put away his eight-sided iron sword and followed the mercenary to the president's room. In the room, Lord Bellman sat at the window with a gloomy face, motioned for Unch to sit down in front of him, and then waved away the mercenary who had led the way for Unki.
Lord Bellman said displeasedly, "Are you packing up and leaving?"
Unqi nodded in acquiescence, his every move in the Adventurers' Guild naturally couldn't escape the eyes of many adventurers and mercenaries, and it was not surprising that Lord Bellman sensed that he had the intention to leave.
Lord Bellman said coldly: "If you want to go, hurry up, I don't like you very much, you learn to deceive at a young age, and you will definitely be a traitor in the future!"
Unqi sneered, and was about to sneer at each other, only to hear a landslide and tsunami-like roar from the streets of Fogrose Town. After the roar, I don't know how many voices were crying at the same time.
Lord Bellman was stunned, and Unch took the opportunity to rush to the window and push the window open. Outside the window, more than a dozen dilapidated houseboats crashed into the square opposite the Adventurers' Guild. Around the houseboat, many of the women of the Night Clan threw themselves together, crying loudly.
Unqi faintly felt that something was wrong, he gritted his teeth, jumped down the window on the third floor, and ran to the square. Lord Bellman was stunned for a moment, and then jumped out of the window, following closely behind Unki.
There were already many demons gathered in the square in the center of the town, and Wu Enqi separated the crowd and squeezed in to see more clearly, the houseboat that fell down had some scorched marks, and the night clan women who came here by the houseboat were all haggard and tear-stained.
Unqi stepped forward, picked up a maroon-haired girl, and asked softly, "My sister, what happened?"
The girl glanced at Wu Enqi, threw herself into his arms, and cried: "The day before yesterday, the villains of the Yan clan burned down our camp and killed all the men, and the beautiful big sisters were also plundered by them...... There was blood and fire everywhere, and Anne was so scared!"
Firefiend! A fire broke out of Unki's eyes.
Unki patted Anne on the back and asked, "Don't be afraid, good boy, tell me the details." ”
Girl Anne was just crying, she was too frightened to go into more detail.
At this moment, Baron Bertrand Karfin, the lord of Fogrose Town, arrived at the scene with the town guards. The arrival of the lord naturally became the core of the field, and all the demons surrounded him. Unki wanted to know what was going on, so he picked up Anne and mixed it in.
After several inquiries, the whole story of the incident was generally clear. Just two days ago, the Fire Demon's Drift Fire Ship had visited the Night Clan tribe in Starsound Valley. The patriarch of the Night Clan tribe negotiated with those fire demons and was dismantled on the spot. The fire demons burned in the Star Sound Valley for a whole day, killed them all day, and dug three feet into the ground. In the end, they killed all the males of the Night Clan in the Valley of the Stars, and plundered all the beautiful girls. The remaining women, young and old, were finally merciful and let them live. But their homes have been ruined, and they have nowhere else to go, so they seek refuge in the town of Fogrose.
Unki pulled Anne away from the crowd and asked her in a whisper, "Is the Yan Clan who burned your tribe looking for something?"
Anne wiped her tears and replied, "They said they were looking for a money bag full of fire agate coins." ”
"How do they know that the money bag is in your tribe?" asked Unki.
Anne said indignantly: "They lie to us, and the devil knows what kind of broken bag it is? If we can't hand it over, they will kill indiscriminately everywhere!"
Unqi's face twitched, and his heart suddenly brightened. Three days ago, if he had told the Night Clan Elder Boschel about the details of the Endless Fire Agate Bag in time, the slaughter of the Night Clan in Starsound Valley might have been avoided. However, he was afraid of revealing his identity and said nothing, so a tragedy eventually became an irreparable reality.
"I hurt them!" Unch slammed his fist into the charred houseboat, and many sawdust fell from the houseboat.
Anne shook Unki's arm and said timidly, "Good sir, it wasn't you who hurt us, but...... Don't demolish our house. ”
Unch stopped, full of remorse.
The news that the Night Clan tribe of the Star Valley was burned by the Fire Demon set off an uproar in the Pearl Mountain area, and all six towns at the northern foot of the Pearl Mountain were under martial law. However, the matter was eventually resolved, and the only consequence of the incident was that there were hundreds more hungry and cold Night Clan refugees in the depressed town of Fog Rose.
These days, Lord Bertrand Karvin and President Bellman are all preoccupied with the resettlement of the Night Clan refugees, and they have long forgotten about the great hero Unki.
Un moved out of the Adventurer's Guild and found a half-collapsed abandoned house in Misty Rose Town, where he stayed temporarily. Feeling guilty, Unqi distributed all the food he had for the long journey to the girls of the Night Clan, so much so that he himself became destitute.
That evening, Unqi clutched the only two fire agate coins left in his pocket, frowning. The girl, Anne, leaned against Unki's side, looking carefree. She was a thirteen-year-old girl of the Night Clan, with chestnut hair, short stature, and some freckles on her face.
Unqi sighed and said, "Annie, it's getting dark, aren't you going home?"
Anne said, "Where do I have a home?"
"You should go back to the houseboat, at least it's safe," said Unch. ”
"I don't want to huddle with them, they cry all the time," Anne said. Big Brother Zhou, if you don't hate me, I'll live here. Do we have anything to eat tomorrow?"
Unqi smiled distressedly, there will probably be food tomorrow, but the day after tomorrow may be starving.
