Chapter 112: Cotton and Chicken Feathers
Before the war between the Duchy of Langton and the Duchy of Vata, Ole taught him the Frost Knight's breathing method through a strange stone. Willy still remembers the wonderful feeling of that time.
From the first time he approached Coulson, Willy felt a sense of déjà vu, but he wasn't sure.
It wasn't until he had a face-to-face conversation with Coulson just now that he was sure that the aura on Coulson's body matched the aura emanating from the stone.
Today's Willy already has knight-level strength, so the chance of perceiving a mistake is not great.
"So, all those poultry anomalies were done by Coulson?"
Willy frowned.
......
Time flies, and Willy and Dahn have dinner at Lauker's house.
Dinner was made especially for the two of them by Lawrle's wife, a large piece of fresh brown bread and a hen in stew.
Laucker's wife was very distressed, there were originally less than 30 chickens and ducks left in the family, and now she has to take one to make soup for outsiders. Fortunately, the two guards were more polite, and they were paid two silver rums.
However, it was almost a delicious dinner for civilians, and Dahn could barely swallow it.
The chicken broth doesn't have any flavor, and the brown bread is coarse and sour. Coming from a wealthy merchant family, he had never eaten anything so unpalatable.
Willy was rather calm, he had tasted food worse than that, so he was more tolerant. And this flavor of food also reminded him of the days when he lived in Xiangguo Village.
As night fell, Willy summoned Laucker and Daan to a side room in the courtyard.
"Tonight we will keep vigil together in case of what Laucker calls the strange phenomenon. ”
Willy instructed.
"Captain, will this happen again tonight?"
Dahn was skeptical, and according to the law of poultry theft, nothing should happen tonight.
"Wait, maybe there's something to be paid off. ”
Willy sat on a low stool and stopped talking, just waited quietly.
Seeing this, Dahn found a place to sit down.
Sharing a room with two guards, Laucker was a little nervous, he looked around the room, and found that there were no extra benches, so he inserted his hands into each other's sleeves, found the corner of the wall and squatted down.
As the minutes ticked by, the moon had risen to its highest sky.
Dahn seemed a little sleepy and yawned. Laucker too, his eyes were about to be opened. He hadn't slept well last night, and now he just wanted to get a good night's sleep, but Willy and Dahn were still around, and he could only hold on.
Only Willy seems to be extremely energetic, and his current physique and knightly cultivation can ensure that he will not sleep for a few days without affecting his state.
The silence of the night continued.
Suddenly, Willy's eyes, which had been calm, suddenly rolled up a little wave.
He heard movement in the courtyard.
"There is a situation. ”
Willy whispered, startling Dahn and Lauker.
He stood up and pushed the door open.
The cold wind of the winter night instantly poured into the room, making Dahn and Lauker, who were still a little dazed, wake up instantly.
"This ......"
When Dahn saw the scene in the courtyard, his pupils shrank instantly.
I saw five roosters standing in a row, and then walking towards the corner of the wall in unison, they were like puppets with strings, and there was no difference in their movements.
Dahn suddenly felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
Before, he had only listened to Laucker's narration, and he couldn't empathize at all. And now, looking at this scene closely, he has a feeling of worry.
In the silent night, the moonlight is miserable, the stars are dull, and a row of roosters as if they are being manipulated by an invisible force, slowly pacing forward, this kind of scene is indescribably weird.
"That's it! That's it!"
Laucker said in a suppressed voice as he trembled.
Someone finally saw this scene, and he didn't lie at all, and he wasn't a coward at all.
Ignoring Dahn and Lauker's horror, Willy walked out of the room alone.
"Captain!"
Dahn called out to Willy.
Although Willy has the cultivation of a knight, the scene in front of him is really too weird and does not make sense at all. A few roosters are nothing to be afraid of, but the power to make them fall into invisible manipulation is too terrifying.
Willy ignored it and motioned for Dahn not to follow.
He walked into the yard and watched the roosters.
Suddenly, several roosters seemed to sense Willy's approach.
Their bodies froze, and they slowly twisted their heads stiffly to ninety degrees, and looked at them in unison.
Five pairs of pitch-black eyes, which seemed to be a whirlpool of magical power, stared at Willy tightly.
"Heh......"
Willy suddenly chuckled softly and muttered to himself, "What a terrible ability, to be able to control animals...... Is this the power that Mr. Ole has concealed before...... A supernatural power that is more subtle than the power of a knight. ”
Just as Willy was about to make further moves, the five manipulated roosters trembled as if let go of the force, and they began to crow, fluttering their wings and running around the yard, and waking up the rest of the sleeping fowl.
For a moment, the yard of Laucker's house was a mess.
"You're just waiting here. ”
Without waiting for Dahn and Lauker to respond, Willy walked out of the courtyard and rushed into the darkness.
Veli's pace is fast, and the destination is quite clear.
In just ten minutes, he was on the wasteland outside Stone Village.
In the corner of the wasteland, a small stone house stood.
Willy walked towards the stone house, his footsteps particularly clear in the darkness of the night.
"Coulson. ”
Willy knocked heavily on the old wooden door.
Soon, the door was opened, and the sleepy-eyed Coulson, wrapped in a shabby padded jacket, looked at Willy in surprise: "Lord Guard, it's you." Why did you come to me so late?"
Willy didn't respond, but walked into Coulson's small stone house with a smile.
He looked around the stone house and shook his head slightly.
There was nothing but a battered bed and a stone table.
"Is the chicken good?"
Willy looked at Coulson, who was dazed.
Coulson was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "Chicken? that's delicious food, I haven't eaten chicken in a long time since my parents left." Do you want to treat me to a delicious chicken breast, Lord Guard?"
Willy stood up, his expression subtle, and his eyes fixed on Coulson's padded jacket: "If you can do a better job the next time you lie, so much the better...... Also, I think cotton is warmer than chicken feathers. ”
Coulson was stunned for a moment, and looked down at Willy's gaze, only to see a curved chicken feather peeking out of the mezzanine of his padded jacket.
