Chapter 36: The Wilderness
() Hahahaha...... The girl's words made all the men in the monk's robes laugh
Little girl, you need to know where you are now, and one of the ascetics standing next to the priest sneered
Coward, you so many big men don t dare to accept my challenge as a woman, you are not men, and the girl cursed
Whether we are men or not, you will find out in a moment, the other ascetic smiled wickedly, leaned his face over, and showed a hideous and evil expression
You...... What do you want to do, go away...... Watching the ascetic who spoke step by step towards her, the girl realized that something terrible might happen next, and her expression was full of fear
As the ascetic approached, the girl was terrified, for a woman, there was something more precious than life, she was worried that the ascetic would take away her most precious thing, she moved her body vigorously to retreat, but her hands and feet were tied to death, she could not move at all, at this time on the girl's face had long been gone, the arrogance just now, and the only thing left was as pitiful as a lamb to the slaughter
Stop playing, the priest patted the ascetic on the shoulder who was walking towards the girl, who immediately stopped and smiled playfully at the girl
The priest came to the maiden and squatted down and said to her, "Don't worry, although you are against us, we are all soldiers with a high sense of honor, and we do not bother to do that shameless thing."
Hearing the priest's words, the girl's heart was suddenly relaxed, but it was obvious that she breathed a long sigh of relief
But the priest who had just stood up suddenly changed his tone, and if you dare to be dishonest, what terrible things might happen next, I can't guarantee that my brothers have been living in a dilapidated monastery and a dark basement for five years, and they are almost suffocated...... You should know what I mean
In the face of the priest's threat, the girl looked angry, but she didn't dare to squeak any more, and the scene fell silent at once
All right, you can call all the partners, after the girl was quiet, the priest ordered the fifty-odd ascetics
And after a while, by the light of the moon, I saw about fifty horses galloping from all sides, and these horses had no saddles on their backs, and when they came to the ascetics in obedience, they bowed their heads obediently to them, and at the same time the ascetics dug up the earth around them, and dug out the chests out of the ground, and then they opened them very skillfully, and took out the saddles from them, and then they hung them over the horses
So it was—if Sophia had been there, then her question would have been solved, and it turned out that the horses of the horse thieves were usually grazing freely in the unattended wilderness, and when they needed to be used, they would have been called back with bamboo flutes—and it seemed that the horses were so obedient that they were also very well trained
The group of ascetics, not the horse thieves in monk's robes, after arranging their mounts, one of the horse thieves walked up to the priest and said, "The chief, brothers, are ready, when will we be on our way?"
What's the hurry, we still have two brothers who haven't arrived, and the priest, who is called the chief, replied
But half an hour had passed, and the two brothers had not been seen, and there was no fire in the direction of the monastery, and you said that something would happen to them, and another horse thief raised his concerns
The leader of the horse thieves thought for a moment and then ordered: Okay, you take ten brothers and ride back to see what the two of them are doing, and if there is anything unusual, immediately sound the alarm
After receiving the order, the horse thief was about to choose his companion and prepare to return to the monastery
At this moment another horse thief shouted, "Don't you see they are coming?"
The crowd looked at him, and saw two dark figures in monk's robes walking unhurriedly
Why are you two so slow the monastery and the basement are burning, why didn't you see the fire, and the leader of the horse thieves asked three questions in a row while reproaching
But the two men who had just returned walked straight into the center of the crowd as if they hadn't heard his inquiry
The leader was very unhappy in the face of the rudeness of the two subordinates, but it was not the time to talk about these small sections, so he no longer pursued the rudeness of the two subordinates, but said directly to them: It's good to come back, and quickly lead your mounts out of here
However, at this moment, these horse thieves sneezed one after another, and they only felt that the temperature dropped rapidly in just a few seconds, and a chill came without warning, and even the leader of the horse thieves couldn't help but shiver a few times
Why is it suddenly so cold, it actually snows this season, and all the horse thieves found that the sky was suddenly scattered with small snowflakes, shining under the cold moonlight
All the horses were agitated, and they kept neighing into the air, an unusual phenomenon that caused a commotion in the crowd, and they all wondered what was going on
However, compared to the noisy crowd around them, the two horse thieves who had just returned from the team seemed to be very calm, only to see the taller horse thief suddenly speak: "Chief, didn't you just ask us if the monastery and basement were burned?"
The man's words immediately caught the attention of the leader of the horse thieves, and he came to the man and asked: Have you burned it?
But to be sure you don't
No horse thief leader was surprised at the blatant disobedience of his men to his orders, and why did you not burn it
Because...... We need time
It takes time, what time do you need
All we need is time to wipe out your gang of horse thieves
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly tore off the monk's robe on his body, only to see that he was holding a crimson single-headed spear, and before all the horse thieves could react, this person had already stabbed the body of the leader of the horse thieves with the spear
You...... Who are you, the leader of the horse thieves looked at his pierced body in disbelief, and then he saw that the face of the subordinate standing in front of him was actually the face of a strange young man
The man who sent you to hell said murderously.
