Chapter 64: The Feeling of Home
In the south of Chiji Mountain, there is a water-stopping lake, the lake water is like a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, reflecting the four running figures.
"Run faster, we'll have a few more hours of rest." Isara's black iron chain mail was pulled from her body as she ran. The other three were even more unbearable than him, they had long been panting like bellows and weak, and when they heard this, they didn't care how valuable this chain mail was, so they hurriedly unfastened the buckle and ran all the way and threw it all the way.
The envoys ran out of the Burning Plains overnight, crossed the Red Ridge Mountains, and finally entered the territory of the Stormwind Kingdom, and across the lake was the Elwin Great Forest, which stretched for thousands of miles. This forest stretches from the Red Ridge Mountains in the east, to the Endless Sea in the west, to Kazmodan in the north, and to the Thorn Valley in the south, and almost the entire kingdom of Stormwind is located in this large forest.
At this time, the four-member envoys were tired, their clothes were tattered, and they were dirtier than beggars. Fortunately, they have entered the civilized world, and there is a human town not far ahead, where they can take a short rest, and everyone is relaxed.
"Huhuhu...... Dorian, we're coming to your house, and you're going to have to entertain us. Rhona panted as she ran, and she was exhausted by the way. The area around the lake was the fiefdom of Solomon's family, including the lakeside town ahead, and they discussed a final supply at his house on the way.
Dorian Solomon covered his waist and smiled, "That's nature, it's our family's honor to welcome all distinguished guests, and it's also the honor of Zhishui Lake."
After another run, farmland began to appear around the lake, and the fields were full of waist-deep wheat, and the ears of wheat were already showing gold. The fields were littered with peasants, toiling at work, and the four of them ran through in disarray, immediately attracting their attention.
"I'm not mistaken, it seems to be the little master."
"What are they doing with a stick? Do you want rice? ”
The farmers whispered, not sure, they looked very similar, but this is too burying, right, the little master is so miserable outside?
In fact, it is not uncommon for the children of nobles to venture out and mix miserably, and it is common to see the children of nobles with broken arms and lame legs in Stormwind City asking for food to return to their hometowns, and these farmers have just no knowledge. However, Dorian Solomon is obviously not among them, he is now the deputy head of the Knights of the Fallen Stars, an important member of the Arathi Basin Envoys, and his status is higher than that of his father, and he is completely worthy of the title of "returning home".
It's just that the appearance of this envoy group is a little worse......
"Hey, it's me, I'm back." Dorian struggled to put on a smiling face and waved to the farmers.
It can be seen that Dorian is very popular with the people in his hometown, and after confirming that he is his own young master, the farmers hurriedly put down the work in their hands, rushed up, and excitedly ran around the four of them.
"Young Master, why are you running?" The farmers asked curiously.
Dorian was already tired, and he couldn't get angry after talking repeatedly, so he could only wave his hand with difficulty.
Seeing that they couldn't figure out what was going on, a large group of quick-legged farmers simply ran forward with their farm tools and overtook the envoys to report the news.
Looking at the lively farmers, the hearts of the four envoys instantly swelled with warmth, this is what it feels like to go home.
####
Lakeside Town is located at the western end of Zhishui Lake, due to its remote location and no trade routes, so the population is very small, the whole town is only a few dozen households, the largest of which is the Baron's Palace.
When the four envoys came to the village, there was already a group of people waiting in front of the baron's palace, and at first a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance waved his hand and shouted excitedly: "My dear brother, you are back."
Apparently, this man was Dorian's elder brother and first in line to the throne - Harry Solomon.
As a future nobleman, Harry was not uninformed, so he hurried a few steps to the envoy and bowed respectfully to the scepter in Isara's hand.
"Your envoy has arrived, and you have missed the distance, please go into the cold house to rest, and let me set up a banquet to entertain." Harry stepped back and made a "please" gesture.
Isara glanced back at Dorian, and finally focused on Yuyu, who was looking down in thought.
On the other side, Dorian's face was full of excitement, and he stood opposite his brother and made a gesture of please. Ishara thought for a moment, nodded and entered the door, a hint of doubt flashing across her face.
The Baron's Court was not luxurious, the furnishings were rudimentary, and there were only a few servants, after all, it was the most remote country with limited taxes.
In the dining room, the group sat down and talked happily, and after a while, all kinds of special coarse dishes were placed on the table. Hallileo stood up and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please dine first, and I'll go to the cellar and get a bottle of red wine."
With that, Harry nodded to everyone and turned to walk into the inner room, and as soon as he left, Isara's face immediately sank.
"Dorian!" Ishara suddenly asked in a deep voice, "Do you think your brother will recognize the emblem on our scepter?" ”
Dorian was stunned when he heard this, his family knew that his brother Harry could not know the badge of the Arathi Basin, but this ......
"Rhona, put it down, I'm afraid I can't eat the things here!" Without waiting for Dorian to answer, Yuyu suddenly shouted and knocked the flesh off Rhona's hand.
The hungry Rona was taken aback and asked at a loss, "Ma'am, what's wrong with you?"
"Here, I'm afraid there's a problem." Yu Yu looked at Dorian, and said with a sinking face: "The envoys came to visit, but the host didn't even ask where they came from, that can only mean one thing, your brother knew our identity in advance."
"Huh...... Huh, how is this possible? Dorian instantly understood what Yu Yu meant, and he forced a smile to defend himself, but his voice trembled involuntarily, and a panic hit his heart.
"Harry, Harry, come on." Dorian shouted at the inside, anger in his tone.
As soon as the words fell, the door in the inner room opened with a "clang", and the four envoys looked at it, only to see that the door was empty, and there was no one.
Isara's brows furrowed, and she suddenly burst onto the dining table, her body spun, her longbow had reached the bottom, and two arrows were buckled from the bowstring at the same time.
"Let's go!" With a loud shout, Ishara let go of her bowstring, and an arrow that glowed with white light shot out.
Sincere!
The feather arrow was nailed to the door frame, and suddenly exploded, bursting out with a dazzling white light, and under the strong light, a slender black figure gradually appeared on the side of the door.
It was a woman covered in black leather armor, with a headscarf on her head and a mask on her face, making her face invisible.
"Who are you?!" Dorian was furious, swinging his staff and attacking.
Isara's longbow stopped him, stared at the black-armored woman, and yelled, "Don't fight, run!"
"Run? Are you still running? The woman in black sneered, and then there was a chaotic sound of footsteps inside, and several more men in black rushed in.
"Don't be stunned, let's go!" Yu Yu drew his sword with his right hand, grabbed Dorian with his left hand, and dragged him out of the door. Rhona drew her dagger and stood in front of Dorian, who looked like a mad tiger, and watched the man in black on the opposite side vigilantly, squeezing Dorian towards the gate little by little.
The woman in black was not in a hurry to make a move, her eyes passed over the tiger-eyed Isara, and coldly looked at the three people who were retreating a little bit.
As soon as the three of them retreated to the door, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside the door, and then a riding spear with a cold light stretched out from outside the door, and pierced the back of the heart! (To be continued.) )
