Chapter 205

The journey began again, this time Renfree became somewhat silent.

"What's the matter, do you realize that the job of a witcher is not as cool as you imagined?" Su Yuan took the initiative to speak.

"I'm just, a little bit of empathy. That girl, she has suffered injustice, but my mission is to remove the last remnants of her in this world. ”

"Relax, Renfrey. It's not your fault. It's this kingdom, this world, that's wrong. Distorted ideological control, don't use careful propaganda, ignorant people, all of this constitutes this distorted worldview. And the widespread spread of this worldview has created countless similar tragedies. You can't change anything. At least not yet. ”

"So when are we going to be able to change that. You used to say that you want to rebuild Kyle Mogan. We need to change that. What exactly should we do? ”

"We can't do it. It's a huge and long task. It will take decades, if not longer. It will take more than one generation. ...... is needed A change of times. ”

……………………….

After another dozen days of travel, they began to approach the border between Kodwin and Aden. More brutal scenes began to emerge. As the border of many countries, the Pontal River Valley is a battleground for soldiers. There is even a saying that if you control the Pontar Valley, you will be able to control the north. Codwin is brutal and domineering, bent on occupying the Pontal Valley. And Aden is not a country to talk to, and it has always refused to give up an inch of land. There is friction between the two sides at the border. Even small-scale engagements are almost non-stop.

The people of this land are miserable. The armies on both sides treated them as free supplies. From time to time, they will suffer from the war. However, the Pontar River basin is fertile and abundant. This makes it impossible for a large number of farmers to abandon this fertile land.

Along the way, corpses were everywhere, piled up everywhere. On dead trees and crosses, there are dead unknown corpses hanging from time to time. Flocks of crows, dragging their fat bodies, enjoy this rare feast. The smell of fish, blood, and death permeated the valley.

A small collision has just ended. A group of knights from Aden, with a team of knights from Kodwin, fight near a small village. By the way, the village not far away was reduced to ruins. The Knight of Aden retreated, but Kodwin didn't take advantage of it. As in the vast majority of conflicts, no one is benefiting from it.

Su Yuan and Renfrey walked into the ruined village. The village was close to Kodwin, so it was a target for the Ardene knights to plunder. And the Kodwin side also made a contribution in order to prevent the Adenites from being replenished at this distance. As a result, the whole village became what the two of them saw.

Several survivors were rummaging through the corpses, but instead of looking for their loved ones, they were searching each corpse's pockets and putting coins or valuables in their pockets.

It is worth mentioning that they are wearing leather armor and do not look like ordinary villagers. He also has a short sword hanging from his waist and looks like a soldier. But temperamentally it doesn't look like it. After all, this is the border, and most of the soldiers have a tough temperament. But these guys don't have that kind of temperament at all.

"It's a knight's servant." Renfrey saw the origins of several people. "They often do this, slaughtering civilians, but as knights, they can't dismount and plunder themselves. So after leaving, let your servants come back to search and get all the valuable things. All in all, these so-called knights are not as clean as my gangsters at that time. At least we won't kill cleanly, we'll just plunder all our possessions. ”

I have to say that this scene in front of him was really an eye-opener for Su Yuan. Back in Westeros, he had seen what the so-called knightly demeanor was. But it must be admitted that Westeros still has a few qualified knights. Sir Barristan, Sir Brienne, and later Sir Jaime and others.

In any case, with these people alive, they have finally barely kept the so-called chivalric culture, the last fig leaf. But in the world of witchers, there is really no fig leaf left.

The two ignored the few servants who turned over the corpse. Those guys were a little interested in Su Yuan's three horses, plus big bags and small bags. It's a pity that looking at the long swords on the two of them, a few people were still cowardly in the end. He went back and concentrated on making the dead man's fortune.

Su Yuan and the others didn't pay attention to them, and walked straight over. Because they saw that not far from the village in front of them, there was a house with lights.

Walking into the house, a strong smell of herbs came to my nose. Renfrey frowned and knocked on the door. As a result, the door was not closed, and she pushed it open.

The herb flavor is even stronger. There was also a strong smell of blood. Several wounded people were lying on straw mats. A middle-aged man grinds some herbs. It looks like a barefoot doctor in the countryside, saving people.

Hearing that someone had come in, the other party glanced back and saw that it were two intact travelers, so he didn't pay much attention. Instead, he turned around and continued to tinker with his herbs.

This is a middle-aged man, with slightly bald hair, and wearing a coarse cloth peasant dress. The face is ordinary, and it looks completely featureless. The strong smell of herbs on his body indicates that the other party is an ordinary doctor. However, Su Yuan reached out and grabbed Len Furui, who wanted to come forward to ask, and walked up by himself.

"We are passing travelers and want to be able to stay here." Su Yuan said very politely. But the other party doesn't seem to appreciate it.

"There are a lot of vacant houses outside, why do you have to come here. Don't you see it's already crowded? ”

"But this is the only place where there is life. Humans are social creatures, and they always can't help but go to a place where there is life, don't they? And the two of us can give you a hand, and we will both have some first aid knowledge. ”

"Then hurry up and stretch out your hand, a few of them are about to lose their hold. This is the last survivor of the village. ”

Su Yuan obediently put down the package, and then motioned for Len Furui to reach out and help. Renfrey gestured with her eyes to see what was going on. But Su Yuan didn't respond, but directly used his distraction to quickly help several wounded people apply medicine and bandages.

This scene made the doctor on the side look sideways, but he didn't show any special expression.

"It's rare to see a wizard who can use magic to save these pariahs." The doctor said lukewarmly.

"It's okay, a lot of wizards will use their abilities to help some people in need. However, it is a real miracle that your Excellency will do your best to help mankind so much. ”

The atmosphere in the house became a little grand.
