Chapter 111: Mausoleum Guards

Higg also turned over and dismounted, carefully looking at the sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy in front of him, it was Thomas, whom he had not seen for nearly two years, and beside him was the leader of the wild horse that had just been tamed. Now Thomas, who no longer has the childishness of the past, is tall, heroic, and has the heroic temperament of a steppe nomadic cavalry, which makes Higg secretly admire.

"Uncle Higg!" Thomas ran up to Higg and choked up, "You're not dead?" I knew you weren't going to die, you were going to be okay, you were going to be able to find us! What about Daniel and Nicole? They're not dead either, are they? ”

Higg stepped forward and hugged Thomas, who was almost taller than himself, and said with a smile: "Of course you are not dead, they have always wanted to find you!" What about Pantony and Butterfly Caiyun, not with you? ”

Thomas said, "Yes, they're all there!" I'll take you to them! ”

"Since it's okay, there's no hurry! I still want to know what the hell happened to you, how did you get to this place, why didn't you come to me? Higg let go of Thomas with a smile, turned to Blue Fairy and said, "Blue Fairy, this is the Thomas I mentioned to you, the son of the steppe!" ”

Lan Xian'er, who was riding on the horse, said with a smile: "Sure enough, the riding skills are exquisite, and he is a talent!" ”

Thomas stepped forward to salute and said with a smile: "Uncle Higg, Sister Blue Fairy, I guess Pan Dongni and Die Caiyun will be crazy when they know that you are coming, let's get on the horse and talk as we go!" ”

Higg turned over and got back on his horse with a smile, sat behind Lan Xian'er, and said, "I'm so old? You call Lan Xian'er your sister, but you call me uncle? ”

Blue Fairy sat on the horse and bent over with a smile, Thomas remounted his horse and said awkwardly, "Who told you to call my father a brother?" Of course, Uncle Higg and I can't mess with the generations, but Sister Lan Xian'er doesn't have the same relationship as my father, of course! Hey! ”

Two horses and three people strolled forward on the meadow, Thomas said: "Back then, you and Daniel and Nicole were trapped in the magic vortex, and they didn't come out on time, and the three of us were in a hurry, and made a big fuss about the magic guild in Moros City, but we were caught by others and beaten several times, but thanks to the negotiation of the leader Ortaran Magician, we were able to escape and be rescued, but we were expelled from Shenlong Island forever!" ”

Higg listened to Thomas's description lightly, these people must have endured huge psychological and physical torture when they knew that they were in the magic vortex and made trouble in Moros's magic guild, Thomas didn't say any details, but Higg knew that it must be thrilling, no less than his own ordeal in the magic vortex and the sinkhole of sin.

"We returned to the Delis Magic Guild with the team, met McCann, and told McCann about your trapped Dragon Island, although McCann was surprised, he didn't feel too sad, he just said that you are blessed and fateful, and it will be fine, so we can wait with peace of mind, and say that you will definitely come back alive!"

Thomas sighed and said, "At that time, Butterfly Caiyun cried to death, but after listening to McCann's words, it seemed to see hope. After all, we have experienced too many life and death tribulations, and we have turned the danger into a disaster, so we have slowly accepted the facts, and at the same time, we really can't do anything except believe McCann's words, believing that you will be able to get out of danger safely and come back alive. But we refused McCann's request to stay with us in the Magic Mountain Guild, and wanted to come to the place where you and Andrew used to live, hoping to help you find out about Andrew! ”

"Andrew?" Higg asked in surprise, "Did you find Andrew?" ”

Thomas smiled and continued: "Coming to the mosque in the town of Saffle, Butterfly Caiyun discovered the strangeness in the mosque and took me and Pantony into your parents' cemetery, but we couldn't find the exit and were trapped in the cemetery for several days until Andrew appeared!" ”

"Is Andrew here too?" Higg was even more surprised.

Thomas nodded and said, "Mr. Andrew is here too!" Even though we explained everything to Mr. Andrew, he didn't trust us entirely and left us here, without telling us how to get out, so we stayed in the village on the shores of Swan Lake. ”

"Village?" Higg and Blue Fairy were surprised, "There's another village here?" ”

"Pan Dongni, Butterfly Caiyun, come out quickly, quickly see who is coming!" Thomas suddenly galloped forward and swooped forward.

Higg and Blue Fairy looked in the direction of Thomas's run, and sure enough, they saw a dozen houses in front of them, with trees behind them and a small river in front. Higg and Blue Fairy also drove forward to chase Thomas, but as soon as they reached the river, they were stopped by five villagers!

"Stop, who are you?"

Sigg and Lan Xian'er couldn't cry or laugh at Thomas with a child's heart, and they didn't lead themselves into the small village, so they ran first, but they had no choice but to dismount and walk towards the people, and were about to answer, but they saw five people suddenly kneeling down on one knee at the same time in surprise, and at the same time gave a military salute to Higg, and after one of them finished saluting, he quickly turned around and ran towards the village behind!

Higg and Blue Fairy were completely shocked by the villagers' actions, they were sure that they didn't know these villagers, and they didn't understand why these villagers were so condescending. Higg carefully looked at the four people who were still kneeling on one knee, and thought it was very strange, one of these villagers was missing an arm, one was missing an eye, one had a deep scar on his face, and the last one kneeled on the ground in a very unnatural manner, probably a lame.

"Master!" Die Caiyun quickly flew from the village to Xige and stopped, hugged Xige tightly, choked and said, "The master is not dead, Die Caiyun knows that the master will not die and will not abandon us!" ”

Higg also hugged the trembling butterfly Caiyun tightly, and was about to comfort him, but he heard Pantony's roar: "Hahaha, Hige, the wine you owe Lao Tzu hasn't been paid off, and Lao Tzu knows that you can't die!" ”

Higg let go of Butterfly Caiyun, squatted down, punched Pantony on the left shoulder, and then stood up and said, "Hahaha, of course I can't die, if I can't see you, how can I die first?" Sigg said, gesturing at the four villagers who were still kneeling motionless on the ground, and asked, "Pantony, what's going on?" ”

Pantony shook his head, not knowing why.

"Young marshal!" I saw two old men who were nearly sixty years old leading thirty or forty villagers from the bridge across the river bank on this side, and came to Hige, knelt down and bowed their heads, and shouted in unison.

"Young marshal!" Thirty or forty villagers behind the two shouted together.

Higg was stunned for a moment, and turned to look at Blue Fairy, Thomas, Pantony, and Butterfly Cloud, all of whom didn't know what was happening.

Higg stepped forward to pick up the two old men and asked, "Do you know me?" Are you veterans of the Fifth Legion? ”

The faces of the two old men were full of tears, and one of them said with a broken arm: "I heard them call you Hig just now, your appearance is very similar to that of the marshal, and you carry the bow of the tree elf, and you still have a warrior order hanging on your waist, if you are not a young marshal, who else can there be?" I'm Johnson, the former commander of the Paladin Battalion of the Fifth Legion, and I've seen the young marshal! ”

"Andrew?" Higg suddenly exclaimed, "Where's Andrew?" ”

"Andrew is out and will be back soon!" Another one-eyed old man said, "I'm the former commander of the Fifth Legion's rear guard, Ganpoqi, and I've seen the young marshal!" ”

Higg pointed to the villagers who were still kneeling on the ground and asked, "Are these all veterans of the Fifth Legion?" ”

"Yes!" "They are all veterans who returned to China with the marshal and his wife, and the grave keepers now, together with those who did not come, a total of one hundred and sixty-three veterans!" ”

Higg walked past Johnson and Gampoch to the dozens of veterans who were still on their knees, and also knelt down on one knee and saluted the veterans.

"Young marshal, no, there is a difference between master and servant!" Johnson and Gamboch were about to step forward to stop them, but they were stopped by Blue Fairy, signaling not to stop Higer.

Lan Xian'er said: "Your marshal and wife are the knot of his heart, you loyal guards can guard the tomb of his parents, and he may be able to feel more at ease by doing so." ”

Higg knelt down on one knee, bowed three times, got up excitedly and said, "Get up, all of you!" You are my father's subordinates, not mine, and we have no master or servant, but you are all gracious to me. You can still respect me as a young marshal, which makes me panic, I'm afraid I can't afford it! ”

"Young marshal!" Johnson said excitedly, "Andrew said that you will definitely come back to find us and take us out of here, we have been looking forward to it!" ”

Higg asked curiously, "You can't get out of here?" So how did you get in? ”

"In the siege in front of the Kuba Fortress, General Saiya gave the young marshal who was less than a year old to General Andrew, led a small number of men and horses to attract the enemy's main force, and handed over more than a hundred elven archers to General Andrew." Gampoch said, "When General Andrew led more than a hundred elven archers to break through, it happened that the marshal and his wife killed themselves in front of the fortress, and those lady's guards, more than a hundred elven archers no longer obeyed the dispatch of Andrew's warrior order, and insisted on going to the fortress to recapture the body of his wife. As a result, not long after the elven guards got Madame's body, Johnson's troops and I converged, and we all suffered heavy casualties, and when we saw that there was no hope of breaking through, the wreath on Madame's head suddenly burst into a strong light, and then although some people fainted, when they woke up, they found that they had come to this strange place, we called this place Swan Lake! ”

Higg asked curiously, "You said you couldn't get out of Swan Lake, so how did Andrew and I get out?" ”

"Andrew is actually a magician who specializes in guarding his wife, and he used the clover given to him by his wife and studied it for several months before he found his way out, but no one else could follow him!" As for you, the young marshal, we don't know why we were able to follow Andrew out. At that time, Johnson was far away from Mrs. Niang's position, and he did not follow Swan Lake, and Johnson had only followed Andrew in a few years earlier! After Andrew took the marshal out, he never brought it back, so, for so many years, Andrew and the marshal lived outside, and built a mosque outside the entrance, and built a mausoleum inside, so that the marshal, his wife, and the marshal could be together. ”

Higg asked, "Why did Andrew say I could take you out?" ”

Johnson, who had not spoken for a long time, said: "Since the young marshal can find his way in by himself, we believe that he will be able to take us out!" ”
