Chapter 27: You never know who you've offended

Next to the collapsed tailor's shop, a family of three came down from a dilapidated carriage.

Husband, wife and son.

The three of them were in the dust, the adults had the joy of returning home after the catastrophe on their faces, and the children bit their fingers and watched all this ignorantly.

It seems that I don't understand the expressions of my father and mother.

One by one, items were removed from the carriage, and the locked doors were reopened.

After only a few days of leaving, most of the things did not need to be cleaned, only some dust, which also disappeared quickly in the cleaning of the hard-working wife.

The items were laid out by the husband one by one.

But a tapestry lacks the hardwood that holds it down.

Nails, you say?

No kidding.

As one of the most valuable things in the house, neither a wife nor a husband can destroy this tapestry with nails.

Even if it's not a third the size of a normal curtain.

"Go find a piece of wood."

"Old Jamie next door should have plenty of them."

"The house is in ruins, and it's not too much for us to take a dollar or two, and at most when he comes back, we'll invite him to dinner."

My wife said.

The husband nodded, walked out the door, and when he passed his child, he touched the top of the child's head, revealing a gentle smile.

"Stay here, if you have something, call your mother."

"I'll go over there and find two pieces of wood."

As she spoke, her husband walked to the tailor's shop, which had been reduced to ruins.

Looking at such ruins, the husband couldn't help but sigh.

"I hope old Jamie doesn't see that."

"No, no."

"It's better to see it, at least to prove that he's still alive."

As soon as he said this, the husband realized that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately changed his words, and then, walking into the ruins, hoping to find a piece or two of wood that would be useful.

Obviously, this is not an easy task.

It took the husband more than ten minutes to pick up two pieces of wood that could be called whole.

Shaking off the dust from the wood, the husband turned to go home.

But when he turned around, he found that the child who had been squatting in front of his house was gone, and suddenly, the husband's body shook.

But in the next moment, he walked towards his house as if he was fine.

"Little Jimmy! Little Jimmy! ”

The husband shouted as he walked, but there was no response.

Not only did his children not respond, but even his wife did not respond.

"What for?"

The husband muttered and moved on.

But when he was still a meter away from the door of his house, the husband threw out the two logs in his hand.

Sou! Sou!

The sharp sound of breaking through the air is like a javelin thrown.

The husband who threw the two logs did not move his upper body, and his toes touched the ground, like an arrow off the string, shooting backwards.

But immediately, the other party has already shot back at a faster speed.

Bang!

The husband slammed through the door of his house, and crawled there tremblingly.

Hurt!

The pain in the heart of the drill spreads from the part where the kick was made to the whole body.

With just one kick, the opponent understands that the person who attacked him not only has a fast leg, but also knows the structure of the human body and knows where the hit hurts.

Then, when the husband gritted his teeth and was about to get up and fight to the death, the other party finally saw the situation in the room clearly.

A young girl was sitting in a chair.

His 'wife' and 'children' were unconscious at each other's feet.

"Mary. James! ”

When he saw the iconic blonde hair and blue eyes, the other party exclaimed.

Of course, Mary was not a reason for the other party to panic.

It's because the other party knows that Mary's appearance will inevitably follow another person.

Demon!

When the corner of his eye saw the black figure, the other party's body trembled uncontrollably, and the poison hidden in his teeth was about to be touched several times, but he finally gave up.

It's not that you don't dare

It's not that he's greedy for life and afraid of death.

It's just that the other party remembered the fact that the 'demon' controls the corpse and manipulates the soul.

That's a very clear record!

He watched it more than once.

Because of this, he felt fear.

There is no relief from death, what misfortune and despair it is.

And when such despair spreads, how can the other party not tremble.

"What do you want to do?"

The other party asked.

And Qin Ran's answer was a hand knife.

Syllable!

Very simply, the other party fainted to the ground.

No need to ask.

Or, to be more precise, it's not time to ask.

Mary watched in confusion as Qin Ran tied up the three captives, but she didn't say anything, she knew that Qin Ran must have her own reasons for doing this.

Following behind Qin Ran, Mary watched Qin Ran return to the Warren Palace with three captives.

In the same way, she saw Maxim and Celti appear at the door of the palace with a group of people.

The number of people was not large, even fewer than the previous battles, only about ten people.

"Your Excellency."

"That's all I can muster."

Maxim looked at Qin Ran who was approaching and said very shyly.

If he could, Maxim wouldn't even be willing to face Qin Ran directly, even though he knew that Qin Ran had asked him to gather everyone was not a test.

But he left with confidence.

Those who did not belong to the same branch as him naturally could not be gathered, but the men and horses under his command, Maxim at that time thought that they were nine out of ten.

It's just that reality gave him a resounding slap in the face.

When he sent the call signal, except for the ten people around him, the rest of the people either did not respond, or simply refused.

and told him directly, and joined someone else's command.

Such a result was unacceptable to Maxim.

But the cruelty of the truth made him have to swallow the bitter fruit.

He knew why this was happening.

However, it was precisely because of this knowledge that he became more and more painful.

He didn't have the determination of a leader.

Facing his mistake Maxim, he lowered his head in pain, he didn't dare to look at Qin Ran's expression.

Any contempt and ridicule is fatal to him at this time.

"Well done."

Qin Ran's voice sounded.

Maxim was stunned.

He raised his head in disbelief and looked at Qin Ran, expecting to discover something from it.

But Qin Ran's seemingly constant expression made him see nothing.

"Your Excellency, you don't need to comfort me."

Maxim shook his head with a wry smile.

"Didn't comfort you."

"There were at least ten more people, much better than I thought it would be — in my imagination, the number should be in the single digits, or not."

"There are ten people, which means that you are more kind than I thought."

Qin Ran walked towards the palace as he spoke.

He still has more important things to do, and he doesn't have time to chat with Maxim, and he can talk to the other party, really because the other party has brought more people than he imagined.

And looking at Qin Ran's back, Maxim's mouth opened and opened, wanting to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, they turned into thanks.

"Thank you."

Maxim said, waving his hand.

His friends and subordinates followed Qin Ran into the palace.

Then, it gradually darkened.

A series of strange figures, through the darkness and shadows, quickly approached the Warren Palace.

The leader of the group looked at the seemingly well-guarded Warren Palace and let out a disdainful sneer.

"The frog at the bottom of the well!"

"You never know who you've offended!"

Burst!

Before the sneer fell, the other party's head was already flying high.
