"What?!" Old man Barry exclaimed, his face ugly.

"A thousand gold coins! And requisition our carriages ?! Atul's eyes widened, and he glared at Hu Tian in surprise and anger.

Hu Tian smiled slightly, and swept the bronze sword in his hand, "That's right, a thousand gold coins, not a single son." ”

"You're taking advantage of the fire!"

Atul clenched his fists angrily, wanting to rush over and eat Hu Tian, but the frightened old man Barry on the side quickly reached out and grabbed him.

"Uncle Barry, I suspect this White Iron Knight is an impostor! Venerable Sun Templar Knight, how could he be dressed in such tatters, oh my God, there is still blood on his clothes! The noble knight will never let blood stain his holy armor! And...... And the Knights of the Sun Templar will never be as despicable as you! ”

Atul's chest heaved violently with anger, his dark cheeks were bruised, and the muscles in his face were shaking.

Huh, despicable?

A sneer rose in Hu Tian's heart, compared to what Orbis, the true owner of this armor did, he could only be regarded as a small thing, right?

"Atul, how can you question the Knight? Don't hurry up and apologize to the knight! ”

Old man Barry pretended to be angry, and when he turned around, he turned into that pitiful and shriveled appearance again, and his cloudy eyes were dripping and rolling, as if he was waiting for Hu Tian's explanation.

Hu Tian did not argue, but quietly opened the lanyard wrapped around his body.

"Smack"!

Under the setting sun, a round badge reflecting the golden hue rolled out, made a circle, and stopped just touching the toes of the old man Barry.

The bronze badge was glittering with gold, and the three-headed bird pattern on it almost blinded the old man's eyes.

"This, this, this...... Imperial Templar Badge! ”

The Knight's badge is a status symbol common to the entire continent of Harilan and is only possessed by true Knights of the Sun Temple.

The young people of Harriland, since childhood, had an inspirational dream of becoming a noble Knight-Templar of the Sun.

Become a knight, you can have a territory to promote to a noble, and you can ride a horse and swing a sword to defend your homeland!

The badge is not only a proof of identity, but also a symbol of imperial glory! Each one is unique!

The two people in front of him, one wearing special knight's armor, and the other having a knight's badge...... Oh, my God! They also had a little girl wearing a helmet!

Could it be that he was so lucky to meet a family of three Templars?

Thank you, Sun God, Asima!

Old man Barry was excited and embarrassed, what's the use of a family of three, a thousand gold coins, where to find it?!

"Venerable knight, you don't care about villains, Atul is young and ignorant. For the sun's sake, save us! It's getting dark, and the Shadow Eagle bandits will soon be chasing and killing! I...... I'm out ...... Five hundred gold coins! That's all I'm worth......"

After speaking, the old man Barry ran back to the carriage, picked up a small wooden box, and reluctantly groped for several times before holding it in front of Hu Tian.

"Hmph, what does it mean to have a badge? You don't deserve the title of Templar, you're just like the Shadow Eagle Bandits! ”

Atul's eyes were slightly red, as if he had been greatly insulted, and with a "bang", he pulled out two meniscus knives from his waist.

The blade glowed with a cold cold light, aggressive.

"Ah......h

Fei Fei, the little elf who had been silent, was so frightened that she quickly hid behind Xu Noyi.

Xu Nuoyi was also startled, and his hands tightly protected her.

"Put the knife down."

Hu Tian's eyes were like knives, staring at Atul coldly, and he raised the bronze sword with one hand and pointed it at his eyebrows.

"Even if I die by the sword of the Shadow Eagle Bandit, I will not give in to you! Take care, Uncle Barry! ”

Atul's eyes were red, he clutched the meniscus knife, glanced at Hu Tian and Xu Nuoyi hatefully, and then turned and ran into the distance.

His direction was where the Shadow Eagle robbers were haunted.

"Atul!"

Old Man Barry anxiously chased after a few steps, but he couldn't catch up, and watched him disappear behind the rock wall of the fork in the road.

At this moment, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded from the depths of the canyon.

"Boom!"

The dark green missile exploded in the air, and the image of a falcon bloomed in the dim sky.

Immediately after, a wolf roar startled a group of wild birds in the canyon.

"Ah...... It's the Shadow Eagle Bandits! That's their rallying signal, and the Shadow Eagle is about to kill! Fast, fast...... Knight-sama! ”

Old man Barry suddenly exclaimed, his brown eyes full of fear, and he ran towards the carriage in a panic.

Xu Noyi tilted his head to look at the fading falcon pattern in the sky, and couldn't help but clench the giant sword with both hands.

"Oba, should we help them?"

"No."

Hu Tian's pupils narrowed slightly, stared at the depths of the canyon where the whistle sounded a few times, and quickly grabbed the small wooden box containing the gold coins of the old man Barry and handed it to her, "Take it, take Fei Fei and run to the top of the ridge quickly, find a place to hide, quick!" ”

"What about you? If you don't go, I won't go! ”

Unexpectedly, Xu Nuoyi did not accept the gold coin, but snorted lightly, swung the giant sword twice with both hands, and stood next to him, his expression was extremely firm.

"This knight is a big star with eight million and two fans, how can he hold back! Take people's money, **, eliminate a few little thieves! ”

"Okay, you kill a few more, and I'll collect your corpse tomorrow."

Hu Tian didn't say a word, pulled Fei Fei and left.

"Ah...... Collect and collect the corpse?! ”

Xu Nuoyi was stunned, and his pretty face was suddenly full of fright, he wanted to die!

"Oba, don't leave me...... I'm leaving, I'm not going to be able to go!! Xu Nuoyi quickly relented and dragged the giant sword to follow.

……

The sun is like blood, and the sky is dark.

The ridges on both sides of the pit viper canyon are like knives, and the riverbed road on the periphery is bleak.

A little further on, around the canyon entrance, further north, the rolling ridges begin to flourish. It's just that unlike the usual green plants of the earth, most of the trees here have reddish-brown skins, as if they have been brushed with a thick layer of rust-red paint.

Their roots were bare on the ground, like the bruises on a giant's face, the thickness of an arm. The upper part of the stem seems to have been twisted into a twist shape by a big hand out of thin air, and the vine branches and snakes that have snaked down swayed from side to side, constantly shaking, giving people goosebumps all over their bodies.

Like the bark of the tree, the red color of the soil beneath your feet is getting darker and darker. From time to time, you can see patches of charred black trees in the vicinity, and the trunks are often broken in the middle or divided into several petals.

Everywhere along the roadside you can see large red and black stones, which are covered with fine pores and shine with a metallic luster.

"Looks like there's iron ore here." Hu Tian secretly thought in his heart, squatted down and grabbed a handful of rusty red soil and twisted it with his fingers, and then stabbed it below the surface with a bronze sword.

"There is only one layer of iron-bearing floating soil on the surface, so it's no wonder that there are constant thunderstorms." He muttered.

"Is there an iron mine around here?"

"My knight...... You, aren't you leaving? Old Barry was about to catch the car and run away, when Hu Tian's sudden appearance made him a little confused. I originally thought that this indifferent knight had left him behind, but I didn't expect him to come back.

"Answer my question." Hu Tian said lightly.

"Oooh oh...... Iron ore, my lord, you're talking about fine ironstone, right? There was a fine ironstone mine in the pit viper canyon before, and before the shadow eagle robbers occupied the canyon, it was under the jurisdiction of the town of Detru, thirty miles away, but unfortunately this is all history! After the Shadow Eagle robbers killed the mine manager of the Detrou Ironstone Mine, the entire town of Detrowe was almost reduced to the Shadow Eagle's colony, and the Ironstone Mine was discontinued after not being dug for long. Alas...... Speaking of which, I still have some friendship with the mine manager, and he sends someone to buy my tobacco leaves every month, but it's a pity that ......"

Old man Barry sighed, and couldn't help but curse hatefully, "It's all to blame on the hateful Shadow Eagle Bandits!" ”

Colonization is a word that makes people infinitely resentful and sad.

Hu Tianen sighed, and the sound of messy and small horses' hooves came from behind the slopes of the wasteland.

There was a nervous smell of blood in the air, and in the dust, a man drove in a carriage in a hurry.

"It's Atul!"

Old man Barry, who was driving all his family's wealth, three wagons, was about to hide behind the ridge on the side of the canyon, when he saw Atul returning in a carriage, and he couldn't say anything excited.

And he could tell at a glance that this carriage was one of the ones he had been robbed of by the Shadow Eagle. The tarpaulin of the car was torn to shreds and covered with horrific knife marks and paw prints.

The last row of boxes containing tobacco leaves was opened, and the tobacco leaves were scattered all the way.

The carriage stopped with a "quack", and Atul's whole body went limp, and he fell from the carriage to the ground.

"Uncle Barry...... I put the goods ...... Snatched it back...... You, you run...... Shadow Eagle he、They ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Atul rolled his eyes and passed out.

"Atul! Wake up, Atul......" Old Man Barry wept and shook his shoulders vigorously.

"He was seriously injured and needed medical treatment."

Hu Tian walked out from behind the carriage, stretched out his hand and pulled out the bow and arrow inserted in the wheel, the triangular edge of the arrow was extremely sharp, pierced into the wheel of the car to a depth of an inch, the other party seemed to be a master of using arrows.

"Leave the lead carriage, a few of your clothes, ropes, and preferably wine, and the rest hurry up and find a place to hide!"

Hu Tian put away his bow and arrows and commanded in a deep voice.

"My knight, are you—are you going to help us kill the Shadow Eagle? ......" Old man Barry was a little confused. Isn't the knight not going to help himself, is he dazzled?

"Don't force me to change my mind, let's go!"

Hu Tian's face turned cold, and the old man Barry immediately shuddered, relieved himself from his stunned state, turned around and hurriedly went to collect things for him.

Watching the old man Barry disappear far behind the ridge with three horse-drawn carriages, Hu Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

I didn't expect that I would have a soft-hearted day.

Hu Tian shook his head with a wry smile, turned around and walked towards the lonely carriage on the road, suddenly, his face changed, he drew a bronze sword in his right hand, and stared at the canopy with a solemn gaze.

A figure in a black cloak jumped out of the canopy.
