140 Count Break Fort Danstad
An oil lamp lit up in the dimly lit cellar, and by the light that went on and off, the quill wrote on the notebook. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"On the fourteenth day of the rainy month, as usual, I guarded the tavern left by my grandfather, and entertained the guards of the castle with Aalto, may the Holy Spirit forgive me for mixing water in the wine, but the fortress has recently come with another group of guards, and the wine in the cellar is really not enough, perhaps, I should ask the guards to go to the Morning Star to help me buy another batch of Aalto wine."
Qatar Sendu thought for a moment and added, "I hope that when they bring the wine back, half of the bottles will not be opened." ”
Sighing slightly, Qatar closed his diary, and listening to the snoring from upstairs, he sighed again: those soldiers would always get drunk here, and poor him had to send the group back to the fortress, and by the way, write down their names, and go to the fortress to collect accounts the next day.
Qatar sometimes wants to leave here, sell the waddling saber-toothed tiger left by his grandfather, leave Fort Danstad, go somewhere else to make a living, or even use the money from the sale of the tavern to buy a set of equipment and become a traveling mercenary, but now twelve years have passed, and the dream of his youth has long been buried in his heart, and Qatar still guards this tavern here, going to the fortress to collect debts during the day, and entertaining this group of soldiers who rarely pay at night.
"What's the difference between living like this and dying?"
Thinking of his day-to-day, unchanged life, Qatar smiled bitterly, and just as he was about to go upstairs and drag the group of drunk soldiers away, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Do you want to understand the meaning of life?" You want really... Alive? ”
"Of course!" Qatar blurted out, and only after finishing speaking did he suddenly react, turned around suddenly, and stared at the darkness in the corner: "Who are you!" ”
"People? I'm not human, to be precise. ”
The sound in the darkness was erratic, and Qatar swept the shadows behind several more barrels, but the source of the sound was never determined.
Not human? Qatar didn't quite understand the meaning of this phrase, but right away, he suddenly remembered a legend: "You are ...... Demon God?! ”
"Ahem......"
The voice in the darkness seemed to be choked, and a series of coughs made Qatar determine the true source of the voice, and quickly drew a dagger from behind his back, pointing at the source of the voice: "What person! Come out! ”
"It's all said, I'm not human anymore." The man's voice was a little helpless, "In addition, put down the toys in your hands, otherwise it will hurt you." ”
As soon as the words fell, Qatar saw a figure slowly emerging in the darkness, although he could only see his mouth clearly, but the longbow and the arrows that flashed with cold light still made him throw away the dagger in his hand very simply.
His own family knows his own affairs, and the dagger in Qatar's hand is actually his own fight, it's okay to scare and scare ordinary people, if it really wants to be used in battle, even the worst leather armor can't be cut, not to mention, the opponent's arrow is still firmly pointing at his throat.
"Who are you? What are you doing? ”
"Would you believe me if I said I was here to deliver wine?" The man also put down his bow and arrows, and out of nowhere he pulled out a wine bottle and handed it over.
"It's ......"
Qatar took the bottle, just took a sip, he felt dizzy in his head, and hurriedly plugged the bottle, only to hear the man speak again: "I heard that tomorrow is your grandfather's death day, and all alcohol is half price?" ”
"Not tomorrow...... Oh yes! Qatar was not stupid, and immediately understood the man's intentions, but he couldn't help but ask: "Why are you ......?"
"Why?" The man smiled, and his smile seemed very tangled: "If I say it, because I don't want to kill, do you believe it?" ”
"I ...... I believe it! For some reason, Qatar inexplicably believed the man's words, and the tension in his heart was also lowered a lot, and he asked a question that he had been entangled for a long time: "Who are you?" Why are you not human? ”
"You're not human," the man pouted, "but to be precise, I'm supposed to be an elf." ”
"Somer?!"
Qatar screamed and was about to question the man a few more words, but the man disappeared again, and Qatar inexplicably understood in his heart: the man had left.
After sending the soldiers back to the castle as if nothing had happened, Qatar returned to the saber-toothed tiger, locked the door, and sat quietly in front of the fireplace and thought.
Qatar's grandfather, Bara Sendu, was a native of Brighton from High Rock, who met the old lord of Morning Star City by chance, and then rose all the way to become the general of Morning Star City.
More than twenty years ago, shortly after the end of the Five-Year War, a group of robbers took advantage of the castle's lack of troops, while his grandfather was killed by robbers in his sleep, and his father was also killed by robbers while guarding the castle.
Twelve years ago, the new lord of Morningstar City took office, led the army to retake Fort Danstad, and at the suggestion of several of Barasendu's old subordinates, returned the tavern to the underage Qatar, and the young Qatar moved from Morningstar City to Fort Danstad, where he lived for twelve years.
"Am I going to live here guarding this tavern for the rest of my life?"
Recalling his simple and boring life, Qatar asked himself, and there was a trace of unwillingness in his eyes.
It was true that this tavern was left by his grandfather, but was he going to be chained to this tavern and spend his life in this little fortress?
"No!"
Qatar clenched his fists, finally made up his mind, picked up the special bottle of "wine" from the table, and walked into the cellar in the basement step by step......
The next day, a message set fire to the barracks at Fort Danstad.
"Hey! Did you hear that? Half price for the toddler sabertooth tonight! ”
"What? Half! ”
"That's right, I heard that Xiao Sendu is commemorating Lao Sendu's death day or something, don't care so much, do you want to go together?"
"A must! How could you miss such a great opportunity! ”
The two soldiers reached an agreement in an instant, and decided to go early tonight morning, so as not to lose their position.
The same scene happened in other parts of the barracks, and even the commander of the barracks received an invitation and sent a small group of soldiers to the tavern to help, and it was said that Komori was going to set up some tables and stools outside the tavern, as if he was going to entertain the entire fortress garrison.
In the evening, it was not yet dark, and as soon as the disbanded army horn sounded, all the soldiers rushed to the gate of the fortress, and even the soldiers who were supposed to be on duty mixed into the crowd, although the commander saw it, but it was not broken, after all, there was still an army stationed in the south, and I heard that it also repelled a snowy attack, and it was not bad for them to relax for a night, wasn't it?
However, just as the soldiers flocked to the tavern of the waddling saber-toothed tiger, a figure hid behind the dead trees in the hilly area not far south of the fort, quietly waiting for something.
In a short time, a snow wolf ran from the top of the hill, stood up halfway through, and ran towards the woods.
"How?"
"The demon has sent a signal for everyone to prepare."
The "werewolf" showed a smile, but it was a soldier dressed in a wolf's skin, and he saw his hands folded around his mouth in a trumpet shape, and he raised his head and howled: "Woo! Woohoo~"
The sound of the wolf's howl spread through the woods with a distinctive knot, and after a few seconds, the entire forest exploded in the snow, and one by one the soldiers lifted their cloaks, got out of their snow nests, shook off the branches on the cloaks, and dragged out the packages one by one, and trimmed them on the spot.
Three days earlier, under the leadership of Sawyer, they had crossed the mountains and mountains, bypassing the enemy near the White Watchtower, and had lurked in the woodland, where they had been lurking for a whole day and a half, even though there were no tents or campfires!
As for the enemy forces in the south? Hognard led his army to make a feint after Sawyer's departure, and retreated to the White Lookout Tower after scolding outside the enemy's barracks, presumably the enemy's generals were still asking for credit to Morning Star City with the "Repelling the Snow Man Army".
Half an hour later, the White Horse Army finally waited for Sawyer's signal, and in the distance, on the tower of Danstad Fort, a bright fire flashed away, but everyone in the White Horse Army sighed and hurried towards the fortress in despair.
At the same time, Qatar also saw the elf from last night again: "Somer! ”
Hearing Qatar's name, Sawa staggered suddenly, revealing a crying and laughing expression, this guy really thinks of him as Somer? You know, he has cheated Sommer several times, and even one of Somer's legends has fallen in his hands.
"Officially, Sawyer, Lord Xueman, Commander of the White Horse Army." After saying that, Sawyer added: "It's true that I'm an elf, but that doesn't mean I'm Somer. ”
"The general of the snowman?"
Qatar suddenly, this makes sense, but what about the garrison in the south? Why hasn't there been any news at all, could it be that they were surrounded and annihilated by this so-called White Horse Army?
"Thank you for this operation, of course, these guys," Sawyer pointed to the Morning Star City soldiers who were sleeping on the ground, "When they wake up, thank you too, otherwise, at least half of them won't see tomorrow's sun." ”
After listening to Soya's words, Qatar was silent, after all, he was still a "white man", no matter how he said it, he was also a pit of his own people.
However, Sawyer was not so entangled, looking at the White Horse soldiers who came in the distance, Sawyer also breathed a sigh of relief, he originally thought that at least one-fifth of the soldiers would stick to their posts, but they overestimated the discipline of this group of guys, and a large bottle of powerful sleeping potions solved the guards of the entire castle.
Looking at the dejected soldiers, Sawa laughed and scolded: "A group of lazy people, hurry up and tie up this group of prisoners, and after counting, one person will divide a few of you!" ”
"Hooray!"
Listening to Sawyer's words, the soldiers suddenly burst into cheers, Sawyer glanced at the north, and then looked at Qatar who was at a loss, and showed a kind smile: "Xiao Sendu, do you want to go back to Morning Star City to have a look?" ”
