Chapter Twenty-Four: Guarding
After changing supplies in the Knights, Guan Feng naturally has no reason to stay here again, although it is a pity that he did not see Klee, but he can't be in a hurry, if he opens his mouth and asks Klee directly where she is, all the foreshadowing he made before will be self-defeating.
"Thank you very much for the help of the two ladies, then I will retire now." Guan Feng bowed slightly to Qin and Lisa and thanked him.
"Your Excellency Guan Feng is polite, this is what our knights should do." Jean waved her hand in response.
"Alright, when I'm settled, I'll visit you two more with the Knights." After speaking, Guan Feng turned around and walked towards the outside of the Knights with Dean.
Dean also got Qin's consent today to serve as Guan Feng's guide for a day.
Dean asked, "My lord, where are we going next?" ”
"Go to the weapons shop!"
Dean nodded and led the team in front, but when the two of them arrived at the gate, a group of people wearing knight armor instantly surrounded Guan Feng.
When Guan Feng reacted, this group of people suddenly bent down and bowed deeply to Guan Feng: "My lord, I'm really sorry this morning." ”
Guan Feng looked at it fixedly, weren't the people who apologized were Lawrence, who was knocked out by him in one round this morning, and Swan, who passed out for unknown reasons.
Behind them were nine young knights, one of whom he hadn't seen, probably the Dudley that Dean had mentioned earlier.
Dudley stepped forward from the team behind him and bowed straight to Guan Feng again: "My lord, everything that happened this morning was caused by my random analysis, although you said that you forgave us, but I think my rudeness should not be forgiven so easily, so please give me a severe punishment!" ”
To be honest, these knights can really gain a lot of favor from Guan Feng if they make such a show, if a normal person gets into trouble, the person concerned is not the same thing, then who will be stupid to mention it? It's too late to think about how to hide.
Alas, what a group of responsible knights.
Thinking of this, Guan Feng turned his head and glanced at Qin, wanting to ask if it was this play arranged by her.
And Qin also seemed to understand Guan Feng's meaning, and shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know either.
After getting the answer, Guan Feng turned his head to look at the group of knights who apologized to him.
"This morning's events have passed, and I don't care, so let's keep your heads up."
Hearing Guan Feng say this, except for Dudley, the other knights all raised their heads.
Looking at Dudley, who was still with his head down, Guan Feng asked, "You are Dudley, right?" ”
"Yes, my lord, I am Dudley."
"I see." Guan Feng was silent for a while and then asked, "Young knight, let me ask you, did you give me this hat for the monster this morning?" Is it because you have an enmity with me? ”
"How so!" Dudley hastened to deny: "I have never met an adult, and everything that happened this morning was the result of my own arbitrariness. ”
"I see." Guan Feng nodded and asked, "Then can you tell me why you are facing me with a sword?" ”
"For what .... For what..."Dudley muttered twice, then replied firmly, "To protect Mondstadt, to protect the citizens of Mondstadt!" ”
After receiving the reply, Guan Feng nodded, then raised his voice and asked loudly, "So for the sake of Mondstadt, for the sake of the citizens of Mondstadt, can you sword against a traveler who has a suspicious appearance and has not done anything?" ”
When Guan Feng asked this sentence, Dudley's head buzzed and he was stunned, how could this be a sword against each other?
Seeing that Dudley didn't reply, Guan Feng asked again: "Knight, answer my question!" Can you sword a traveler who has done nothing for the sake of the object you are protecting? ”
"No.... No.... That's not true. Faced with Guan Feng's questioning again, Dudley's mind began to be a little confused, and it was a little difficult to distinguish the right and wrong of things for a while.
On the one hand, the people he swore to protect when he joined the Order, and on the other hand, the innocent people who did nothing, neither allowed him to do anything to harm them.
"I.... I.... I" Dudley didn't know how to answer for a moment, just froze in place.
Just when everyone thought that Guan Feng would scold.
I saw him take a deep breath and yell, "That's right! For the sake of Mondstadt and the citizens of Mondstadt, you need to take your sword against anyone suspicious! ”
Guan Feng's answer was like a sledgehammer slammed into Dudley's heart.
He raised his head and looked at Guan Feng in shock: "My lord, you mean?" ”
"I mean, your purpose and original intention are not wrong! For the sake of the existence you have sworn to protect, you must be suspicious of all suspicious outsiders, or else when the object of your protection is harmed, all that remains is endless remorse........."
When he said this, Guan Feng's mood gradually declined, and the emotions revealed were low and sad.
Dudley saw Guan Feng's gloomy appearance, and he felt a trace of worry in his heart: "My lord......."
Then Guan Feng took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and continued: "Although your original intention has been recognized by me, you are still not calm enough, and you are anxious to judge everything you see before you have enough information!" ”
Dudley wanted to open his mouth to say something several times, but in the end he only held back one sentence: "I'm sorry ......"
"I did receive your apology." Guan Feng stepped forward to help Dudley up, and said softly: "Everyone will make mistakes, but never do things that you regret, if it wasn't me who came this morning, but a real monster........"
Speaking of this, Guan Feng deliberately cut off his words and patted him lightly on the shoulder.
"I didn't protect everything I had before, I was a failure, but you are different, you still have energy, and there are still existences that can be guarded, so please protect it well."
When Dudley heard Guan Feng's words, his eyes began to moisten a little, and then he nodded firmly: "Definitely!" ”
Guan Feng smiled slightly, turned around and strode out, leaving only everyone stunned in place.
After walking for a while, he found that Dean didn't follow, Guan Feng turned around and said, "Dean, didn't you say that you want to be my guide for a day?" Don't you want to be my guide? ”
Dean, who stayed where he was, immediately reacted: "How can you not want to!" Wait for me, adults! ”
