Chapter 332: Tavern Oddities
Iron Pear Tavern. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Ye Xiaofei glanced up at the signboard, the name was good, but before they met, a table whistled down, this kind of hospitality is a novelty.
The guards were shocked and angry, why was this old iron head so ignorant? If you take care of it, maybe Tie Lihua Tavern will have a backer, and it won't be so aggrieved, but, as far as the current situation is concerned, it is estimated that the store will be closed tomorrow.
Pami's face was warm and angry, and he snorted softly, which reached the ears of the guards, and he turned pale with fright, and hung his head, not knowing what to do.
"Let's go down!" Ye Xiaofei's words were like an amnesty order, the guards hesitated, relieved, saluted, and left quietly.
"It's too boring to just drink, so it's better to see what kind of sacredness is and what kind of play is playing?" Ye Xiaofei hooked Pami's shoulder, not like the lord of one side, but like an old drunkard who was in a hurry to get drunk, and said with relief: "It is estimated that some kind of hooligan ruffian is fighting a righteous person, or that old drunkard who is not long-eyed is going crazy with alcohol." β
"Objective," an old man hurriedly rushed out of the lobby, arched his waist, lowered his eyebrows, and said in a frightened tone, "Are you okay?" Didn't hit you? Do you want to drink? Quick, fast inside please! β
The old man was courteous, nodded his head, and when he saw that there was no one else on the street, he urged the shopkeeper to clean up the rotten table, so as not to impress the faΓ§ade.
Obviously, this is a tavern opened by an outsider, and the old man can't recognize Ye Xiaofei and Pami, it should be the first time they have seen each other.
"Boss," Ye Xiaofei said in surprise: "Your restaurant is not small, in the middle of the night, business is good." We want an upstairs location, by the window. β
The first floor is the lobby, three or five tables of guests are scattered, there are many empty places, the old man originally planned to place a table at will, as soon as he heard that he was going to the second floor, his face suddenly became bitter, and said: "Objective, the second floor is being cleaned up, so as not to sweep your Yaxing, this floor is good, you see, what to eat?" I'll do it for you right away. β
Ye Xiaofei walked to the stairs on the second floor by himself, and said with a smile: "I like to be condescending, you should be able to see the Mage Tower on the second floor, right?" β
The old man wanted to stop it, but he didn't dare to stop it, Ye Xiaofei insisted on going up, sighed, and rushed to the front to guide him upstairs.
Under the sound of knocking footsteps, the second floor gradually quieted down, and the shopkeeper obviously didn't dare to step on such heavy footsteps, as if the person who went upstairs wanted to use his footsteps to tell everyone: Lao Tzu is here!
"Objective, you bring it back and just eat, don't move, otherwise the little old man doesn't know what will happen."
Ye Xiaofei smiled and was noncommittal.
The second floor, which is the same size as the downstairs, is scattered with seven or eight tables, unlike the downstairs with more than 20 tables, which looks comfortable, and the natural appetite is better than that downstairs.
However, at this time, the second floor is like a battlefield that has not yet been cleaned, dishes and chopsticks are everywhere, a half-eaten braised fish is innocently lying on the ground, the food on the ground is mixed with the aroma of inferior wine, and the two big men are scuffling together, overturning two or three tables. It is estimated that the table that was thrown out of the window just now was done by the two people in front of him.
"Objective, you are careful on the ground, please here." The old man guided the big man who was scuffling in the middle, found a table in the corner, hurriedly swept away the peanuts that fell on the table and chair with his sleeve, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Please take a seat, do you need to change downstairs?" β
"No," Ye Xiaofei frowned, his eyes swept around, there were gold coins on a table in the center, two piles on the left and right, like a handicap, wouldn't it be a gambling fight? However, gambling in a restaurant, I don't know if it's for personal grievances or for righteous disputes.
"Ye Xiaofei," except for Pami, few people dared to call him by name, after attracting Ye Xiaofei's attention, Pami sat upright and smiled: "You don't mind at all, but, talking about things here, aren't you afraid (leaking)?" β
"Can you have anywhere else?" Ye Xiaofei turned his head to the old man and said, "I'm very hungry, what are the signature dishes here, four or five dishes, be fast." β
"Okay, guest officer, what kind of wine do you need?"
"The best."
After sending the old man away, Ye Xiaofei's mind calmed down. He asked, "What about Cangfang?" Aren't you all in Dehrim? Why didn't he come back. β
Pami is the CEO, and Cangya is the commander-in-chief. The big war is imminent, and Ye Xiaofei needs their full assistance.
"Cangya defected to the Holy See of Light and joined the Holy Kingdom of Light."
Syllable! The wine glass in Ye Xiaofei's hand quietly shattered, and a good cup of herbal tea was sprinkled with debris.
Ye Xiaofei's mouth was full of bitterness, suppressing the anger gushing in his heart: "My commander-in-chief, who took refuge in our enemy? Are you kidding me? β
Cangya and Pami, anyone can defect, but only these two people are Ye Xiaofei's most trusted.
"The city of Dehrim was broken, Cangya and I took advantage of the chaos to escape, and after breaking out of the final encirclement, Cangya turned and left, heading west. He told me that the Terrans were still desperate, and that the only way to survive and preserve the flame of hope was to rely on the Holy See of Light. Pami took a letter from his bosom and said, "This is his letter to you, the last letter." β
Ye Xiaofei took it tremblingly, not daring to open it, but he couldn't avoid it, and finally quietly opened the envelope by the candle flame on the table.
To: Marquis Ye Xiaofei
Boss, we're defeated. Although neither you nor I have ever thrown in the towel, when the walls of Dehrim fall and the city that has stood for thousands of years falls, it will be over. Dehrim's war, from morning to night, from evening to the early hours of the next morning, there were enemies who tried to storm the walls all the time, and one after another indomitable warriors heroically repelled them, but to no avail. Deherim's defenders dutifully fought to the death.
However, I saw from them that the tide was gone, like a boat in a stormy sea, to be destroyed at any time. What is even more tragic is that it was our compatriot - the Holy See of Light who destroyed the wall. A group of traitors who betrayed the human race, with the light of God, slaughtered their own people, and they were more hateful than the hundreds.
So, I'm going to join the Holy See of Light. A human aggregator of sin and ugliness. Forgive me for not being able to drink you anymore, Boss, forgive me for not eating and saying goodbye. Only by living under the Holy See of Light can there be a glimmer of hope that can be preserved.
Perhaps, tomorrow, the kingdom of Rhodok will also fall, and the entire continent will have no place to stand. We can only look for light in the darkness and hope in despair.
Forgive me, Boss, for not being able to follow in your footsteps, I feel like I have to do it at this moment, for the sake of that illusory hope.
From today onwards, my hands will be stained with the blood of the human race, and I will even bury the last Rhodoc kingdom with my own hands, and my heart will bear the infamy of eternity. My name will be engraved on the top of shame. My people will be a great disgrace to the human race.
Boss, maybe one day you'll be ashamed of me.
But, I know that I have to do it, and only in this way, even if Wanfu points out, I can only move forward.
Today I join the Holy See of Light and integrate into the Holy Kingdom of Light. Anyone can point and curse me, but, Boss, as long as you and Pami can understand, my life will be worth it.
Sinner: Cangfang
Statements of capital offenses.
Ye Xiaofei's hand trembled, biting his lip, his head was a little blank, and every word on the letter knocked on his heart and shook his soul.
"Cangfang!"
At this time, no one judged the rights and wrongs, right and wrong. Ye Xiaofei felt that his trust had not been betrayed, and no one was more aggrieved and sad than Cangya, being a patriotic person and bearing the name of the country forever, it was a greater suffering than death.
Pami took the letter with a solemn gaze and tears in his eyes, he had misunderstood him. I couldn't be more ashamed.
The two stared at each other for a long time, and the new trend gradually calmed down, proud of Cangya, but also worried.
Ye Xiaofei silently folded the letter paper and put it back in the envelope without any mistakes, such as receiving a space ring with a treasure, this letter is the heaviest trust.
"Cangya has already begun to act, and he will make a choice that he can't turn back to."
"Ye Xiaofei, perhaps, only you can pull him back, he must still be in Deherim, if you go to him, you will definitely be able to bring him back."
Ye Xiaofei shook his head and said, "Me? Pami, you are wrong, if we meet again, we will only meet each other, and I hope never to see him again. Otherwise, you will die. β
"You can't." Pami gritted her teeth and said, "He's our best brother." β
"I really can't," Ye Xiaofei stared at the black wooden table and said, "I can't live up to what he wants to do." I don't even have the courage to make this choice, it's a hopeless point of no return. If the Terrans win, he will surely bear eternal infamy. If the Terrans are defeated, he will inevitably embark on the road to recovery, but he will not succeed. can only be drowned out by greater shame and insults. When he chooses this path, he is the last loser. β
"I regret it, I should have grabbed him, even if I tied him, I had to bring him back." Pami said bitterly, "It's my fault." β
Ye Xiaofei was completely hungry, staring at the hot food on the table, unable to lift his chopsticks. Even the bloody wrestling of the big man next to him looked pale and weak, and he was in an irritable mood.
A person who trusts the most, embarks on a path of no return.
Ye Xiaofei's fury was a mixture of insomnia and restlessness, which came suddenly and violently.
Bangββββ
The two big men who wrestled were directly thrown out of the window by Ye Xiaofei, and took the first table with them. The first man stood up in disagreement, and the man flew out of the window with the table.
The diners on the second floor scattered in a hurry, and the tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks were scattered in all directions.
Ye Xiaofei, who threw red eyes, grabbed Pami, and the two immediately got entangled.
Pami muffled, grabbed with both hands, controlled the hand, and elbowed her chest.
His chest was numb, Ye Xiaofei was silent, broke free of his right hand, and punched his chest.
The two are fighting on opposite sides, you punch me and I slap each other, and the fists are to the flesh.
This battle was fought for no reason, and for some reason it ended, two big men sat on the ground back to back, speechless, looking up at the sky, as if they could feel a familiar person walking away step by step.
"He'll be back." Ye Xiaofei muttered, suddenly pulling his chest, and there were bursts of numbness. Neither of them used their spiritual power, and every punch was merciless.
"He can't come back!" Pami gently held his chest, his eyes showed a trace of bitterness, but more regret and sadness, and said, "He has no way back." β
Ye Xiaofei was silent, and Pami could only lament alone.
"Boss, if you are born at the wrong time, we may be like this, and we can only end like this."
"Really?" Ye Xiaofei said blankly: "Arrested? Not my character. β
The blood of the two people after boiling is lonely and sad, although it flows endlessly, there is the powerlessness of prostration.
"We seem to be the last land outside the Rhodoc Kingdom, the last territory of the Norsen Kingdom." Pami patted the fried prawns stuck to her clothes and said, "Boss, have you figured out what's wrong?" β
"I'm thinking." Ye Xiaofei patted the food on his body, slowly stood up, took out a bottle of elf fruit wine from the space ring, handed it to Pami and said: "I've been thinking about it, but, right now, I just want to get drunk for a good time, get drunk in order to forget Cangya,, he is a respectable person." Bigger than you and me. β
The men, who had just finished a fight, still had each other's fist prints on their chests, and the next moment they raised their glasses and drank heavily to each other.
The old man of the Tie Lihua Tavern felt that today was the most terrifying day, and the tables, chairs and dishes jumped down from the second floor with the guests in line, but he didn't dare to stop it, or even make a protest. Even had to evict the guests on the first floor so that the people upstairs would not run down and smash it.
"Don't worry," the black-armored warrior at the door walked in: "Today's losses will be compensated twice, but what you see today will not reveal a trace of rumors." β
The old man arched his waist and nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes!" Commander Raul, what you say is an iron law, if I dare to say a word, you will seal my store. β
"Hmm," Raul nodded, listening intently to the sounds upstairs, and suddenly there was a drinking order, and apparently, the two of them were starting to get drunk.
"Janissary Iron Lion," the old man glanced outside the door, only to find that the street was full of Janissary Iron Lion, and there were many people in the distance, and the entire Iron Tree Flower Tavern had been heavily protected, no wonder, the guest who was thrown down just now actually didn't say a word, and ran away with his tail between his legs. I guess I was scared a lot, or I was being questioned in a corner.
"Upstairs, who's it? Never before has there been such a battle in the city of Para. The old man muttered and swept his gaze over Raul, who had a resolute face, and said secretly: This is a person with great power in the city, what? It looks like someone's current escort is coming.
"See what?" Raulti snorted and said, "If you dare to slack off upstairs, your shop will definitely be closed." β
Raul stepped out of the gate, the sky had begun to glow a little white, and a new day began.
The Praetorian Iron Lion, which belongs to Ye Xiaofei's personal guard, wants people to give people to people, and gives priority to the supply of equipment. In just over a month, all the outfits have been completed: pocket crossbows, war swords, war shields, war guns, war bows, high-grade Warcraft leather armor, and a set of heavy armor on the battlefield, equipped with Warcraft-level unicorns. Immediately there are cavalrymen, under the horses are heavily armored warriors, and when heavy armor is taken off is archers.
Although this guard is only three hundred people, its combat effectiveness has already reached the rank of a king-level legion.
Raul, the commander of the army, has only power under the commanders of the various legions. Especially in the city, sometimes it works better than the name of the corps commander.
Raul was like a sentinel at this time, standing guard at the door of the Iron Tree Flower Tavern with dedication, his eyes calm, staring at the nascent sunrise.
