Chapter 7 Villains sometimes just live very aggrieved

Leo didn't want to bring Fran with him during this interview, firstly, it was not appropriate to take the initiative to visit the mountain people as a princess, and secondly, Leo had a vague bad premonition, and it was safe to put Fran in the base camp.

Legend has it that a hundred years ago, the exiled criminals were accepted by the indigenous tribes of the mountains and formed a new tribe, and after a hundred years, the customs of the two sides gradually merged, and there was such a festival of thanksgiving for the blessings of the mountains and forests.

Leo's stomach cramped in the carriage, and he didn't bother to listen to the elders about the origin of the mountain people, and secretly decided in his heart that he must implement reforms as soon as possible, and if he wants to get rich, he will build roads first.

If industrialization goes well, maybe you can still build a car and drive it? Why didn't you use to be a science dog?

"My lord, it's here"

Bell spoke, poking his head out of the window, only to realize that it was already dusk, and the town of Pinwood was no longer visible, and in front of him were the mountains that stretched like dragons, and the deep mountains and forests were repeatedly made people feel frightened by the huge beasts with their mouths wide open.

The greeting personnel were already waiting at the foot of the mountain, but they were dressed as ordinary civilians, and Leo, who was greeted by Fran, thought that he would be more like a wild man.

"If you wait, you can see some good things."

The attendant looked at the sky and pointed to a mountain forest in the distance, but there was nothing, which made Leo confused.

Just as he was about to speak, as the last rays of the sunset disappeared into the horizon, the stars gradually appeared in the night, and the first lights lit up at the foot of the mountain, followed by the second group, the third group....

The lights were turned on continuously, like a heavenly road on the top of the mountain and the starry sky, and several people couldn't help but be stunned......

Men and women, young and old, were singing and dancing on the mountain, and it was already early winter outside the mountain, but the forest was full of enthusiasm, and everyone was pulled by the hospitable locals to sing and dance around the campfire.

The smiles of men, women and children, the flickering firelight, the aroma of grains, Leo came to this world for the first time after he came to this world, maybe he could learn more about this world?

……

When the group reached the main account, the patriarch of the three clans had been waiting for a long time, the world view was always broken, the ideal was very beautiful, and the reality might be blessed, just like the patriarch of the Eagle clan in front of him, the flow of time could be felt from the Mediterranean Sea of the patriarch of the bear clan, only the crane clan echoed Leo's expectations, although he was an ordinary old man.

These three clans are the backbone of the mountain people, although I heard that there is also a high priest who has a dragon that does not see the head and the tail, obviously did not show up this time.

After three rounds of drinking, the formal politeness is almost the same, and after exchanging glances, it's time to cut to the chase, the patriarch of the crane clan took the initiative to open his mouth first.

"The conditions offered by the lord are indeed tempting, but with all due respect, is this plan a little lacking in consideration?"

Leo paused, thought to himself, and immediately put down his wine glass and gave a standard protagonist-style smile.

"Naturally, there will be no direct use of force, the purpose is just to force the palace, my troops will stand in front, if there is a problem, you can also retreat in time"

The means set up secretly are naturally better not to be told by anyone, and Leo also lamented that there are too few cards in his hand, and he is not as good as those who have endless hole cards.

Seeing that the three clans were still suspicious, they pretended to take a sip of wine and shook the wine glass, took out the contract documents prepared in advance, and shook them in front of several people.

"Succeed or not, in the name of His Highness Fran, you can all get the paperwork to enter the towns of the kingdom and become freemen"

Since the remuneration can be issued in advance, it is natural to be able to put your mind at ease, after all, the other party should not dare to joke with the royal seal.

"This cup, to Her Royal Highness the Princess"

"The Red Rose of the Empire"

Everyone present laughed, only the corners of Ral's mouth, who was wearing a cloak, couldn't help but twitch.

….

The wind and snow rose slightly, and several people took advantage of the night to enter Pine Town, skillfully bypassing all the guards, and sneaking into the mayor's mansion occupied by Leo and his party, and after a while, the sound of fighting was heard.

….

Although the patriarchs of the three clans repeatedly retained, Leo still decided to go back at night, after all, the backbone of the entourage had followed him, and he knew that it would be so late that he should at least leave Lal to accompany the princess.

In the middle of the night, the road down the mountain was also pitch black, and the road could only be barely seen by the torches, and the previous guide had fallen asleep, Leo decisively rejected the option of calling people up, and now he regrets it a little.

When I arrived at the fork in the road again, I saw that the few people in front of me had discussed for a long time but there was no result, so I could only squat there and count the stars.

Suddenly, I heard a small sound, and my brain suddenly opened up, and I pretended to shout deeply.

"What people! Come out"

As soon as the words fell, I remembered a burst of applause, and one by one the masked people came out of the shadows.

……….

"I didn't expect there to be two more hits, but it's a pity that this is the end of today."

I'm just shouting, don't add drama to yourself, okay.

Dense footsteps sounded in the forest, and there were more than a dozen people, needless to say, they knew that they were here to trouble themselves, even if Bell and Lal were strong, the numerical disadvantage was irreparable.

"There must be some skills to be favored by the king at such a young age, but Lord Lord, you have chosen the wrong enemy, so please leave here now."

The leader made a motion to wipe his neck as he spoke.

Others are invincible in all kinds of counterattacks, and the last time they get a rich armor in the world, how can they hang their pants and belts on their heads all day long? Leo sighed.

"Lord Protection!"

Bell and the others were just about to make a move, but the lines were robbed in advance.

The woodland lit up with fires, one after another, and a large number of figures approached the place, and torches continued to light in the distance.

The masked man at the head was stunned, this is not the same as what he said? Why would the mountain folks help the new lord?

"You guys!"

Unable to care about much, only by taking down this lord first can the problem be solved, the masked man led by him rushed forward with a brisk step, and before his hand touched Leo's collar, he heard a gust of wind in his ears.

A fist as big as a sandbag beckoned, and with one punch, he hit him until the whole person flew out in a spiral, falling to the ground and spitting blood foam, full of grievances, pointing to the tall figure in front of Leo and finally squeezing out a few words.

"All of them...* are traitors ....... traitors"

……

In the main tent, Leo looked at the patriarchs of the three clans with different expressions, wanted to say something but stopped talking, couldn't help sighing, and turned his head to look at the elders.

"Well, forget it, why don't you tell me what's going on...... High Priest of the Mountains? ”

Lucio's face changed in shock, and he quickly regained his composure.

"When did you first find out?"

"In the beginning...."

Obviously claiming to be from the town, but he knows everything about the mountain people, even if the relationship is good on weekdays, it is impossible for him to get a response from the mountain people so quickly just when he mentions it.

What's more, after he came to the territory of the mountain people, whether it was the guide who led the way or the patriarch of the three clans, he unconsciously glanced behind him.

The thing about signing a contract is also, if no one dredges it, how can it be so easy to decide, really be the protagonist with full halo? The answer to all this is on the horizon.

"There is only one truth, criminal... Oh no, the High Priest of the Mountains and Forests is you! ”

Leo pointed at Elder Lucio and pushed his glasses that didn't exist, and the Elder stared at Leo for a long time, as if he wanted to see through everything about Leo, and finally gave up

"Alas, it's come to this, and I won't hide it, I really ......"

There was a bang, and a person suddenly crawled in from outside the tent, knocking down a coffee table and spilling wine on the ground.

"High Priest! Oh no."

Lucio felt like something was choking, and it took him a long time to breathe.

"Yes... I am the High Priest."

"And what's the matter with you!"

Only then did the man who fell to the ground get up, and everyone present was shocked.

"What! Are they going to assassinate the princess? ”

……

The high priest was stunned for a while, and then turned into a wry smile, he still missed a step after a thousand calculations, he originally thought that the plan would be calculated, and accepted the request of the nobles, and at the critical moment, he could save the lord from the water and have a turnaround and sell his favor.

But I didn't expect that the other party was really bold, wanting the new lord to die in the territory of the mountain people, and then assassinating the princess, if the lord really died, then who would defend their group of people who abandoned the ghosts and hated the mountain people? ..... poison....it's really poisonous.

The high priest looked at Leo, who was silent, but the idea of whether to take it down had in his heart, if the princess was really dead, would the other party throw the responsibility on himself? Is it true that things are not turning around?

"They won't succeed"

A voice interrupted the silent air.

"Because ........'m here?"

"Ral" took off her cloak, not the first princess of the Iron Country, and who was Franstuarte?
