Chapter 55: The Blockade, White's Injury, and the Outcome of the Incident

Since martial law was imposed throughout Fort Ford, everyone's space was confined to the interior. During this period, several times a group of heavily armed sergeants, led by officers, came to search the post station of the Doro caravan, but did not find anything unusual.

It is worth mentioning that the entire caravan was silent and blind to White's inexplicable disappearance, as if Moriarty had joined alone. And with everyone's silent maintenance, Moriarty naturally did not attract special attention from the inspectors.

Two days later, martial law is still strictly enforced.

Apparently, the Ford Fortress military did not find their target along the way.

Because of the long period of confinement, it is inevitable that some people will start to secretly curse the top of the fortress, thinking that they are trying to defraud the merchants. But scolding and scolding, no one dares to really make any out-of-the-ordinary actions. After all, a military order is a military order, and if it is really violated, it must be redeemed with your life.

However, on the afternoon of the third day, a young junior officer suddenly arrived at the Doro caravan and announced to everyone that martial law had been lifted, and Fort Ford had returned to a normal state of entry and exit. As for the causes and consequences of this martial law incident, the officers did not mention it at all.

After receiving the notice of permission to leave, the people up and down the caravan immediately burst into jubilation, and then busily prepared for the departure of the caravan, intending to leave the customs early tomorrow morning before the other merchants and caravans who were also innocently stranded. As for not being able to know the inside truth of this incident, the caravan didn't matter. Unless the news brings them revenue and profits, how can profiteers spend time and energy on these things that have nothing to do with business.

Shortly after the officer left, Gonzalez, dressed as a blacksmith, swaggered through the gates of the inn.

"Good news, bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" Sitting comfortably on Moriarty's low bed, Gonzalez stretched out two stubby fingers and said.

"Good news." Moriarty did not hesitate and chose directly.

"The good news is that your companion woke up two days ago, and it looks like he's not going to hang up." Gonzalez grinned.

"Thank you, Gonzalez." Hearing the good news that he had been waiting for for seventy-two hours, Moriarty nodded with relief: "Thank you Pugris, too." ”

"But the bad news is that the young man's right arm can't be saved. The frost shot was so wounded that Pagris couldn't save it, so she had to be removed. But it didn't take long for Moriarty to be happy before Gonzalez came straight to the second message.

"Is that so... What about White's love? Moriarty paused for a moment, then sighed heavily and sat back in his chair.

Scrapping a hand was one of the possibilities Moriarty had foreseen. But when he really heard it from Gonzalez's mouth, he still felt sorry and sad for White from the bottom of his heart. After all, as a crossbowman, losing an arm is almost the same as losing a qiē.

"He's a strong lad, and he's not looking for death. It's just that it looks a little uninspiring. Gonzalez replied fifteen-ten.

"Can I visit him now?" Moriarty asked, standing up for a moment.

"I'm afraid it's not convenient." Gonzalez shook his bald head and did not give a reason, but simply vetoed Moriarty's request.

"I see." Seeing this, Moriarty didn't ask much, just nodded understandingly.

"Also, Pugris asked me to tell you that it will take at least half a year for White to fully recover. Moreover, it is best to maintain a state of recuperation for the last two months. Otherwise, the wound may worsen again, even affecting the thoracic cavity and lobes of the lungs. Gonzalez also stood up and patted Moriarty on the shoulder: "So, it seems that you will have to go on your own." ”…,

"I agree with Pagris that White's current state is really not suitable for the rough and tumble of the journey." Moriarty nodded, squeezing out a smile: "However, if you want to leave him alone at Fort Ford..."

"Don't worry, Puglith has arranged for Tresh to look after him." Gonzalez understood what the other party was worried about, and immediately smiled and said, "Although that little girl is often a little cautious and likes to play tricks on people, she has a good heart. And I can tell that White seems to be quite 'scared' of Treich. So, it should be fine. ”

Without Moriarty's request, the red-haired singer had already taken over the task of caring for White. For the other party's actions, Moriarty was really deeply moved.

However, at this time, Moriarty did not say any more words of thanks, but only extended his right hand to Gonzalez.

"What is this?" The big bald head didn't understand the meaning of the other party's right hand, but he also stretched out his big hand quite cooperatively.

Then, clasp your hands tightly together and then separate them.

"Alright, it's time for me to go. It's been out for a long time, and I'm going to be scolded again when I go back. Retracting his right hand, Gonzalez smiled amusefully and prepared to take his leave.

"Please take it." At this time, Moriarty took out a Casirias promissory note from his bosom, with a face value of up to five thousand kingdom gold coins, and sincerely handed it to Gonzalez: "It seems that it is too late to invite you to drink this time." When White is better, let him go with you. The 'flamingos,' the 'pumpkin cart,' the bells and the cats, and the 'old cabin,' all drank it all over again. ”

"Hey, hey... Before she came out, she took special care of you, and did not let you collect your gold coins, otherwise she would have to deduct my wages. Gonzalez pinched the promissory note lightly and laughed a little wryly, not at all looking like a powerful warrior at the mid-level peak.

"I don't sue her, can't I?" Moriarty smiled faintly, signaling for the other party to feel at ease.

"Haha, then I'll take it." Sure enough, upon hearing Moriarty's assurance, Gonzalez immediately smiled and shoved the promissory note deep into his boot.

Looking at Gonzalez's childlike caution and joy, Moriarty couldn't help but laugh a little. I really don't know how this big bald head seems to have never seen money as the owner of the Black Knife Arsenal in the Ford Night Market. Could it be that not a dime of the huge income from the sale of Evenfire has ever flowed into Gonzalez's personal pocket?

However, Moriarty decided not to go into any further detail on this issue.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, that she-wolf cub and her mongrel followers escaped after all." Before leaving, Gonzalez reported to Moriarty about the Bimon Shaman, as if he had suddenly remembered.

"Not blocked?" Moriarty wasn't surprised to hear the result.

Because for some cases, if you can't catch the criminal red-handed, you will never want to catch it. And apparently, the military of Fort Ford did not leave the Beamon Shaman at the first time.

However, it is worth noting that the werewolf from Croulrod and her men committed the crime in the middle of the night when the four gates of Fort Ford were closed, and it was not long before they were surrounded by a large number of Inner Fort sergeants who were informed by the "good Samaritans" and rushed to the scene. And under such conditions, Shaman Beamon can still escape and ascend to heaven, which cannot but show that the other party has great magical powers and careful planning.

"It's blocked, but it's not blocked. God knows what Glass's stupid pen and the other stupid pens in the inner castle ate to grow up with, and they were actually led by Shaman Beamon to break out head-on. Then, the two groups went around the entire outer fort to hide and seek. I'm forked! Speaking of this, Gonzalez couldn't help but curse again.

"And then?" …,

"Later? Nothing later. The big bald head looked disdainful: "After a big circle, the wolf cub led her people directly to the southern wall, and then roped out of the castle." And when the people of the fortress caught up with the city wall again, except for cutting down some werewolf dead soldiers behind the palace, they couldn't even catch a single hair. ”

"The military didn't go out of the city directly to pursue?" Moriarty frowned.

"Chase a bird." Gonzalez shook his head while scolding: "That wolf cub had laid an ambush outside the fortress beforehand with a group of Krulrod wolf cavalry, and as soon as she came out, he would take her away. ”

"I see." Moriarty nodded.

With the wolf cavalry's response, and the fact that it was late at night, it was no wonder that Fort Ford did not dare to continue the pursuit. This is not to say how timid the soldiers of the fortress are, but to fight a sports battle with the wolf cavalry with amazing night vision in the dark night, and add an additional scepter-level Beamon shaman as an opponent, I am afraid that no Terran general will be sure of victory.

"So, the fortress is planning to give up?" Moriarty asked again.

"Well, what can you do if you don't give up? This time the incident was mainly in the black market, and it was impossible to put it on the table. And no matter how crazy that wolf cub is, after all, he didn't do anything to ordinary businessmen. Therefore, it is not a serious diplomatic incident, and the top brass of the fortress does not have enough excuses to resign to protest or ask for an explanation from the Khrulord side. Gonzalez shook his head helplessly.

"And your loss?"

"It's not a big loss for me. Except for the samples that were placed outside the arsenal that had been burned with fire oil, the rest of the stock was still there. The wolf cub didn't expect the people in the inner fort to go so quickly, so he didn't have time to move yet. Hehe..."Speaking of this, Gonzalez laughed a little smugly: "Besides, I have knocked a lot of gold sand down from her before, which is enough to make up for the loss." ”

"I see."

"But the 'Count Sharon'... Tsk..."At this point, Gonzalez sighed with regret on his face, but there was a certain schadenfreude in his eyes.
