"Why......"

"Is the village chief literate? That's the best, please write the name of the head of each household in the village and the number of people on this form, and the boys go door-to-door to inform them to pack up their things, and for each family, they will tick this form to ensure that no one is missing, in short, this roster must be ...... well."

"Why......"

"There are eight scattered settlements around White River Village, and the task of informing them will be handed over to our mercenaries here, but we need guides, and it would be great if they can ride horses."

"Why......"

"Guys, get ready to go! There are still about two hours, and it will be completely dark, and it will be difficult to walk at night, so you must hurry up and move, and if you have a long way, you can rest in that diaspora that night, and you don't have to go back to the village tomorrow, and we will meet at noon on that high ground according to the location marked on the map in your hand! Take these two flares, and after completing the task, ignite the green handle of this one, report that you are safe, if there is an emergency, activate the red one, and I will arrive soon! ”

"Why......"

"Hey, guys, I have to stress again before I go, maybe we have a grudge that is too complicated to let go, but the villagers are innocent, and I hope you can uphold the quality and belief of being a top warband mercenary and help these people in need - hey, impatient? Then I'll get straight to the point, if any of the eight squads on the outing mission had a problem because of resentment or dereliction of duty, all of you would sink into the dung pit - I think your experience last night could be quite a strong testimony, and I am a person who never jokes......"

Each squad is led by a silver-tier powerhouse, supported by two bronze-level mercenaries. It's a mess of luxury, judging by their physical qualities and field combat experience. Unless you happen to be facing a flash flood head-on, in theory. There will be no problems - but the faces of the more than twenty mercenaries are not very good-looking, first look at the nominal leader, Mr. Ford, and find that the boss is glaring at a dead fat man from beginning to end, so they look at the actual supreme leader, the old butler, and find that this gold-level powerhouse is looking up at the ceiling, as if there is some kind of eye-catching charm in the rustic wood grain, and finally these mercenaries all sigh and helplessly obey the orders of a necromancer.

If there were doubts about Sigma's combat effectiveness before, it was on the way from Chenguang Town to Baihe Village. After this guy slashed a mountain flood and swept it back to the mountain with a sword, the unruly mercenaries realized why the old butler lost. In short, in terms of combat effectiveness, they are completely inferior, and even if they rush up, they may not be able to take advantage of it - if the end of resistance is to be beaten or even killed, the mercenaries may fight without fear or retreat, and they are not willing to swallow their anger after being humiliated, but the end of resistance is to sink into the dung pit......

"That's right." Sigma grinned as he watched the mercenaries rush out, "Do you know why you can only be the little brother." And your Mr. Ford is able to be the big brother? ”

He bit the word "big brother" so hard that he caught Ford's attention, and she glared at the necromancer fiercely in disguise as a man, but for some reason. didn't say a word, and put on a look of swallowing his anger.

He paused for a moment, and noticed that the mercenaries' ears were quietly pricked up. So he spread his hands and said: "Because she knows the times!" ”

After saying that, the arrogant necromancer laughed wildly as if no one was around.

In the Mercenary Guild. Ford backed down, and Sigma didn't do anything with him. Instead, he pressed step by step, sometimes sneering, sometimes scolding, and even carried out more obscure verbal sexual harassment, but this guy who had been tit-for-tat with Sigma before and did not show weakness turned into a pus-filled soft egg overnight, and he didn't respond to Sigma's provocation and ridicule and didn't care, at most he just smiled reluctantly, and it seemed that he was going to be a turtle with a shrunken head to the end.

Hearing Sigma's comment of "knowing the times", a look of fury flashed in Ford's eyes, and his fists clenched suddenly, but finally slowly released, as if the anger just now was just an illusion.

It was Eisen who spoke up, and the dead fat man plucked up his courage and said, "Mr. Sigma, you've been doing this all the way, and to be honest, you're ...... You're going too far! ”

The necromancer turned his head to look at him and said indifferently: "Too much is too much, who asked her to send someone to ambush me last night." ”

The reason she ambushed you last night was because you were in the guild...... Belch......

Eisen swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, if you dig into the bottom of it, the conflict between Sigma and Ford, in the final analysis, is that Sigma wants to help herself, but who is to blame for the conflict between herself and Ford......

Eisen wanted to save the country and persuade him from a different angle, but he heard Ford, who had been silent and let Sigma taunt him, raise his head and say angrily: "You don't need to pretend to be a good person!" Fake guy, you don't have to worry about my business! ”

Eisen was stunned for a moment, then closed his mouth with a wry smile.

"Mr. Sigma, this mission is very important, those guys are used to being lazy, I'll go out and tell you again, and then I'll go to scout the route back to town tomorrow, and I'm out of company." The old butler, who had been silent, heard the clash between the two, whispered hello to Sigma, ignored Eisen's embarrassed gaze and Ford's slightly remorseful look, and walked out the door.

"Then please." Sigma nodded, "The old gentleman is a golden swordsman with the Earth Moon genus, and there is one more thing I want to ask you. If it is convenient, it is advisable to open a few stone caves on the high ground of the tentative assembly transfer station tomorrow, so that someone can be sent to go early tomorrow morning to prepare hot water and ginger soup to provide a place for those who come after to rest and shelter from the rain and warm up. ”

The two exchanged glances, a hint of pleading flashed in the old butler's eyes, and Sigma bowed slightly, so the old man showed a little gratitude, and nodded quietly: "I understand, you are very thoughtful." ”

Athena remembered the priest and Ellie and went to the church, and there were only four people left in the village chief's house, which was the center of the village.

Outside the big house, the village chief stood under the eaves. Give orders to the young people who have gathered. Under the Empire's new conscription system, young people in the countryside were also trained in militia reserves during the off-season. The instructors are the veterans of the village who have retired from the army, and they are full of recognition and prestige. It is quite a bit of militarized management, so the village chief, who is also a retired soldier, is also very handy in commanding the young men, he first selected eight people as guides, and assigned them to eight mercenary squads, and then assigned the remaining young people to tasks one by one, so that they could go door to door to inform the evacuation matters in an orderly manner. The lads listened to him quietly, without whispering or asking questions—it was evident that the lame but still straight old chief, who had retired from the army, had absolute authority in the village.

It was in this way that the emperor of the Holy Empire relied on this method to control the state to each small village.

Sigma stood by the window, looking at the orderly scene outside the door, and sighed in her heart. Then he heard footsteps, and when he looked back, Eisen walked in quietly, also looking out the window: "Look...... It's very smooth. ”

"How. Don't ask why? Sigma scoffed.

At the mention of this stubble, Aisen immediately looked embarrassed, and said a little crazy: "As soon as you say this, I will remember it again!" Why the hell? ”

Sigma sneered, "Because the water of the White River is cold......"

The dead fat chrysanthemum tightened. Then he said angrily: "That's not the reason!" Why did you offer to go to Baihe Village in the guild! It's just a matter of coming to Baihe Village, why did you designate Ford and his party as companions! ”

"Because I'm familiar with Baihe Village. Anyway, there is a mass base, and Athena also cares about it. Sigma explained in all seriousness. As for why let Ford go with them? Didn't you see Oliver appreciate me? One gold rank, nine silver ranks, and one or twenty bronze mercenaries, this power can turn Chenguang Town upside down, and the leader is very different from the mercenaries of Chenguang Town, such an unstable force is taken by me to take the initiative to minimize the possibility of accidents, this is for the overall consideration, after weighing the pros and cons, the best choice to make......"

Do you have such a good heart? Aisen was guilty in his heart, and a suspicious expression appeared on his face.

When Sigma saw his appearance, he said, "What are you thinking?" Do you think I have selfish motives? ”

Yes, of course! It's better to say that this matter is full of conspiracy from beginning to end! Eisen complained loudly in his heart, but looking at Sigma's kind smile of "white river water is cool and good enema", how dare he tell the truth? So he shook his head again against his will and sneered: "When ...... Of course not, how can such a kind person as you be selfish......"

"Then you are wrong, even if I am such a kind person, I will be selfish." Sigma suddenly changed her face and smiled proudly, "My selfishness is to see how stupid you are now stepping on poop, aren't you laughing at me?" Didn't you say that I was hard-mouthed and soft-hearted? I'll let you see, Lao Tzu is not only hard-mouthed, but also hard-hearted! ”

Daddy! I knew it! Anyway, how strong is your revenge really strong! If you say a word unintentionally, you will take revenge in your heart! There should be a limit to the careful eye!

Eisen's wind was messy, and he couldn't say a word.

"Of course, it's still a joke." Sigma patted him on the shoulder with a kind eyebrow, then quietly opened a soundproof barrier, his mouth pursed, and he whispered, "You and Ford, it's time to make a break." ”

Eisen was startled and stammered, "You...... You know it all? ”

"Hmm...... You can roughly guess it. Sigma touched her chin and said in a deep voice, "Nicknamed Coyote, you have known Ford since you were a child, and at that time you lived in the martial arts arena at home and were alone, so Ford came to wake you up every day, cook for you, and clearly had a crush on you, but you were blind and couldn't see it." The days passed, it was calm and warm, but one day you suddenly got involved in the Magic Lantern War, and you became a Pokémon trainer with a Paladin-type Digimon that fell from the sky, the Golden Retriever Gluttonous Poodle, and then you were forced to compete with six other trainers for the legendary Aladdin's magic lamp that can fulfill a qiē wish, maybe it was the arrangement of fate, you met the sister of Ford, who is also a trainer, and her pet is a Sagittarius-type Digimon - a red-capped black-bottomed hairy crab, and you form an alliance, And in the struggle with a series of Digimon such as the pink-haired long-legged Yanma, the black-skinned skinny chameleon, and the fried two-haired golden pickup, he gradually discovered the dark curtain hidden under the magic lamp war, and even discovered the dark secret hidden under Ford's gentle smile. Ford has been used as a meat urinal since childhood, and sees you as the only light in life, but you ignore her feelings again and again, and you are not clear with her sister, so she blackens, and then eats her sister, and you who feel that you should bear all the sins, think that everything is your fault, and the evil relationship between the two of you unfolds like this......"

I actually heard this to the end......

This was the only thought in Eisen's mind.

"Coyote, don't be cowardly!" Sigmar patted him on the shoulder.

"Who's a coyote?"

After being silent for a while, Eisen sighed in a low voice, he knew that Sigma was cheering him up in his own way, but the dead fat man still had hesitation in his heart, and he said in a low voice: "There is no solution left." The relationship between people is like a piece of paper, which is roughly clenched and wrinkled, and even if it is unfolded, smoothed, and stroked a thousand times, ten thousand times, it has already left a deep trace, and it can no longer be restored to its original state......"

Sigma said expressionlessly: "Spread the crumpled paper on a smooth wooden board, spray water with a watering can on the front and back, then fix the sides with water tape, and let it dry in the sun, and then the crumpled paper will become flatter than Kieli's chest - you can't do it just because you're stupid, lazy, and pretentious, borrowing things to make a lyrical ball." ”

Gilly knew Ford's details, so she looked at her with kind eyes from the beginning, and her eyes roamed back and forth over Ford's shoulders, waist and chest, as if she was measuring something visually, but her eyes became more and more kind, and Ford was hairy all over her body - but looking at it, the yellow sand paladin was excited, and felt a deep malice rushing towards him, and when he heard the words, a lion shook his head and said sharply: "Sigma, what were you talking about just now!?" ”

Sigma's face did not change and said, "Help a dead house do a life negotiation." ”

How could Jiri be fooled so easily? She shifted her gaze to Eisen's body, as if she wanted to torture her or something, just as a cold sweat was oozing from Eisen's back, the witty Sigma suddenly said: "Jili, don't worry about this for now, you look outside, the rain is so heavy, it suddenly reminds me of a sentence......"

This brainless remark made the paladin stunned: "What? ”

Sigma pursed her lips and said in a very pretentious tone: "I heard that on a rainy day, chocolate and music are more compatible......

Ji Li was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, and a tangled look appeared on her face: "...... Who are you listening to? Do chocolate and music go well together? Can I eat while listening to music? And why do you have to eat chocolate? What does this mean, do you have to listen to music when you eat chocolate? And you want to pick a rainy day? ”

This question has been bothering me for more than two decades in my life, and I'm curious to know why chocolate and music fucking go well together on a rainy day, and it's obviously an impressive and shitty advertising slogan, but at some point it can have a very useful effect, like...... Kill Jiri's thinking obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Sullen guys tend to think too much, and they're prone to getting tangled.

Seeing that Jili was caught in a broken thought, Sigma raised her eyebrows and signaled that it was done: "So, there is a way to smooth out the crumpled paper, so ......"

Eisen was embarrassed when he heard this: "You also know that this is a lyrical borrowing of things, how can it be so simple to really do it......"

"Isn't it easy? If you don't do it, how do you know it's not easy? ”

Eisen just smiled wryly.

Forget it, pick up the other one first.

Sigma snorted and said suddenly, "I'll go to the upper reaches of the White River, Ford, come with me!" (To be continued......)
