Lu Fasi, who returned to his residence, asked dissatisfiedly: "You asked that simple question, and you investigated the matter clearly?" ”

Higg said: "Investigate clearly? Investigate what, dark magic? Does Davis himself know what dark magic is and what soul curse is? ”

"They must have been a dozen people who had fallen under dark magic, but why did only that big brother and Davis survive?" Puzzled, Lufasi asked, "Shouldn't you ask where they were ambushed by the bandits?" ”

"Humph!" Higg snorted coldly, "Do you think a marshal who was ambushed by the bandits, after paying the ransom, will not turn back to exterminate those bandits?" The bandit ambush is obviously an illusion, and the magician group is the focus, do you think those magicians will stay where they are and wait for you to investigate? ”

"Marshal? You mean, that big brother is a commander marshal? Lufasi asked in surprise, "Do you think those magicians didn't just kill Davis's gang, but slowly tortured them to death?" ”

"That's a good question!" Higg said, "It's not about slowly torturing and dying! Those people didn't know that they had been hit by the Soul Curse, and when the people who controlled the Soul Curse wanted to manipulate those generals in important positions to do things against their will, none of the eleven strong-willed generals obeyed the control of the Soul Curse, so they died mysteriously! The Soul Curse Technique can only control the weak-willed, and for those who insist on their beliefs and beliefs, they would rather pay the price of their lives than do things that go against their souls, and this is what the eleven dead people are worthy of admiration. ”

"What is your relationship with that big brother, or rather the marshal? So, you have a relationship with the owner? Lufasi asked.

"Guess it yourself! Even I guessed, and I wasn't quite able to confirm whether I had anything to do with him! Eh, my last question shouldn't be asked, I should ask him, who designed to frame his eldest brother, and the question will be clear! Higg laughed, "Mr. Lufasi, I'm really worried about your IQ, I've already given so many hints, and you don't even know it!" ”

"Now that we've investigated the matter, we should go!" Jesse interjected.

"Why don't you want to stay, and go with us to wander around?" Higg sighed, "The outside world is so dangerous that even I may not be able to protect myself, let alone protect you!" ”

"That owner's wife, Beverly, thinks about accepting me as a righteous daughter every day, and I'm almost annoyed to death by her, let's go!"

"In a few days!" Higg himself didn't know why, and he didn't want to leave Jesse behind, since he came out of the mountain forest, having Jesse by his side always made him feel more at ease. A person who has been adrift for a long time, has been doing conquest and killing for a long time, and every day is terrifying, so he always wants to find a spiritual home for himself, but Jesse's ordinary mentality is like a spiritual harbor, which makes Higg stop when he feels tired, and his heart is inexplicably more steady. But Higg is worried that this kind of simple and ignorant child will be brought into the whirlpool of the times by herself, and she will always be buried by this era when she is unable to protect herself, "I still have to wait for someone, and after I finish meeting him, we will make plans!" Don't you want revenge on your father? I think this person can help you! ”

"Really?" Jesse's eyes lit up and he was overjoyed.

……

In fact, the question that Davis threw to Higg made Higg's mind completely messy, if there were a total of thirteen people including that big brother and Davis, why was only that big brother who didn't have the soul curse technique, and the rest of the twelve people couldn't be spared from the disaster? There are only two possibilities, one is that the eldest brother has cut off his soul curse technique; The second is that he was not cursed at all, but had some secret deal with the other party that allowed them to escape from the so-called bandits. And if this eldest brother is the person he guesses, that is, his father, then he will subvert his perception of his father, then, his death will not be so simple, and things will be more confusing.

……

"General Shante! I'm so disappointed in your crusaders! Higg said angrily.

Shante came to Zhuangzi on the third day to look for Higg, originally came with great interest, and when he heard that Higg was counted as soon as he met, he said unceremoniously: "Marshal Higg, I am not your subordinate now, and the Crusaders are not in Hig's battle sequence, and it is not the turn of the Marshal to dictate the quality of the Crusaders!" ”

Seeing that Higg was stunned in surprise, Shante continued: "I have just been directly transferred here from the Luojia River Plain, and it has only been half a month since I arrived in York City, and many things have not been sorted out yet, so this matter, Lord Marshal, should not be counted in my account for the time being, no matter how muddy I am Shante, I will not set up troops to kill the people!" It's just that the crusaders have the rules of the crusaders, and the marshal disposes of Her Majesty's guards privately, I'm afraid it doesn't quite conform to the rules, I hope it won't be an example! ”

"Hahaha, good!" Higg laughed and said, "This is the General Shante I want to see!" It's true that your crusaders shouldn't be in charge of their affairs, but I have the right to kill the guards first, and I won't be punished, right? ”

Shante said: "The first cut and then the prelude is the privilege that His Majesty has given to the Marshal to exercise the military affairs of the Fifth Legion, not to let the Marshal interfere in the military affairs of my crusaders, the Marshal must figure it out!" ”

"Everything has to be reported, everything has to follow the rules, is it a horse? If so, General Shante, you are in danger! Hig Zhengse said, "The general will not be subject to the orders of the monarch outside, if you follow the rules in everything and report at all levels, let alone lead the army to fight, you are not even qualified to be a commander!" I can understand that you are loyal only to Her Majesty, but please keep this loyalty in your heart. You are now the commander of the army, and doing so will only harm your crusaders and Her Majesty! A general who has no thoughts of his own and no opinions of his own will always be just a tool for others to manipulate, and the army he leads will be completely soulless! ”

Shante asked coldly: "Hehe, do you want me to be like you, do things out of line, and not obey the king's orders?" In the court, you ignore your hierarchical status, and in the army, you also do whatever you want, which worries Your Majesty! It's even more dangerous for you to go on like this! ”

"What is Your Majesty worried about? Are you worried that I'm too powerful? Hahaha! Higg laughed, "General Shante, you have finally spoken her mind for Her Majesty. In troubled times, there is naturally a way to be a minister in troubled times, and the way to be a king, you don't need to worry about Your Majesty, she can see more clearly and farther than you. ”

"What is the way of being a minister in troubled times?" Shante asked, "Does Biya have the right to talk about the way of kingship?" ”

"There is a right and wrong in the king's order, I listen to what is right, I don't listen to what is wrong, this is the way to be a minister!" Higg laughed, "It's that simple! Since you don't want to talk about the way of kings, I don't want to talk about it! ”

"I really misjudged you!" Shante said, "I didn't expect that you have a heart of disobedience in your bones!" How can there ever be a right or wrong command of the king? Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to sleep at night and eat unpleasantly? ”

"Whether it's right or wrong, being obedient is a good courtier, and being disobedient is not a courtier, you think so, right? In troubled times, strength is the king, and only then can the king's order be issued! "You can rest assured that I have no intention of coveting the throne, but I will never let others manipulate the power under my control!" ”

"In that case, then what did you call me here for?" Shante said angrily.

Higg stared at Shante for a long time before he said slowly, "I just want to see you, it's okay now!" Jesse, send off on my behalf! With that, he handed the gold cross back to Shante.

"You ......" Shante was furious, stood up, and said, "Farewell!" ”

Walking to the door, Shante turned around again and said, "You instigated Your Majesty to send the Crusaders here, and since you yourself have come, shouldn't you be responsible for the future of the Crusaders?" ”

"General Shante, the life and death of the crusaders are none of my business, can I interfere? If I instigate it, His Majesty agrees, will you come? Don't throw these responsibilities on me, I have no intention of coveting your military power! Higg said fiercely, "Don't let me see a group of bandits wearing crosses oppressing the people again, otherwise, I will see one in the future, kill one, see two, kill a pair!" ”

"Even if what I said just now is wrong, I'll take it back!" Shante took a deep breath and said, "But as a friend, since you're in Camillo, you should always help me!" ”

"Friends?" Higg said angrily, "General Shante, do you still have the word friend in your eyes?" Who else do you have in your eyes but Queen Catherine? When you abandoned the base of the Gauder Hills and defected to Colenva, you were used as cannon fodder by Colenva to exterminate the Magician Regiment, resulting in heavy casualties among your brothers, what is the righteousness of your friends? It's not unclear that Colenva has always wanted to annex Fuxing City, but then you united with Colenva to calculate my Fuxing City, and let my Fuxing City army block several times your own enemies on the Marshall River, and also suffered heavy casualties, at that time, what is the meaning of your friends? But you relied on the righteousness of your friends and the blood of your brothers to climb to the top of the Guards step by step, and I even promoted you, but how do you treat me? Your subordinates plundered, but you want to shirk it without knowing it, and you still have no benevolence in your heart? An unkind and unrighteous man like you has come to question me for meddling in my business, so I'll do less of your crusader business! ”

"Good!" Shante said coldly, "I didn't expect that in the eyes of Marshal Higg, I, Shante, turned out to be an unkind and unrighteous person, hahaha!" ”

Higg also snorted coldly: "Hmph, since the Crusaders are His Majesty's guards, if I get involved, won't it make your Majesty the Queen even more restless?" ”

"General Shante, please!" Jesse opened the door and said unceremoniously.

Shante turned around angrily and strode out the door.
