Chapter 871: The Legend of the Witch
England, Burgundy, and France, the current situation of the three parties is that England and Burgundy are the first to attack France, and occupy half of the country.
Lightning's raid operations allowed the Burgundian city of Reims to be quickly taken, and France itself did not even suffer too many losses along the way.
The main battle faction, led by Alençon and the Duke of Dinenoy, proposed to attack Paris immediately before the other side completed the deployment of troops, but Charles VII had other ideas.
Negotiating with Burgundy and becoming king of France, he already had enough power to implement his ideas, and if Burgundy betrayed England, the other side would be defeated.
It made no difference to him that he attacked Paris later or earlier, provided that Burgundy was willing to betray England, of course.
Whatever the outcome, at least until the outcome came, the army would not have to think about attacking, and Joan of Arc would have a rare amount of free time.
“…… It's obviously time to rest, why do you have to come to inspect early in the morning, isn't it good to go back to sleep, such a big sun, at first glance, it is bombarding people to go back to sleep" The sky was just dawning, and the sleepy wind was forcibly pulled away from the bedding by Joan of Arc and ran to the city wall to inspect it.
"The little ghost has been sleeping for too long, and sleeping less will not have an effect"
If Youfeng is really sleepy, Joan of Arc will not be willing to pull it out, but during this time, Joan of Arc has basically mastered a certain law.
That is, if you don't call, Xiao You can sleep no matter how long it takes, ten hours, twenty hours or more.
"It won't have an effect, but it's going to be sleepy......" yawned, her right hand being pulled by Joan of Arc, and there was no way to get out of it anyway.
How do you feel that this girl has become more and more 'presumptuous' recently, and she has no sense of respect at the beginning, and she has become completely crooked. Of course, the appearance is still rising in the positive direction.
The reaction of the soldiers on the city wall also made the wind subtle in his heart.
Although they were all at their posts, they could naturally see the difference with the eyes of the wind, if they were normal patrols before Joan of Arc came.
After touching Joan of Arc, it was as if he immediately entered another state, saluting her respectfully, and ordinary soldiers also changed into the illusion of an elite at this moment.
Saying. Can't you all see Joan of Arc pulling him on a quick patrol right now! There was no unusual reaction at all.
Of course, this is also the ignorance of the wind about her own reputation, the name of the Holy Maiden of Joan of Arc has long been spread, and she is also regarded as another messenger of the Lord who protects the Holy Maiden.
Although it is not as famous as Joan of Arc, this kind of behavior is also in the category of acceptance, and the saint pulls a guard shorter than herself to patrol, where is the problem?
Looking at Joan of Arc with a sigh, the 'village girl' of the year has finally grown into a 'leftover girl'.
Yes, the legal age of marriage in medieval France was twelve, and Joan of Arc, who was already seventeen years old and moving towards eighteen, undoubtedly had the potential to be a leftover woman.
"Xiao Yu. Why do I think you're looking at me with such rude eyes?" Joan of Arc asked, looking at the wind suspiciously.
The intuitive aspect of "your delusion" is also getting stronger......
After spending part of her time touring around some key places, Joan of Arc and Ghostwind entered into real wandering, wandering around Reims with their interests.
"Lahair, Duke Alençon" walked near a mansion when Lahaire and Duke Alençon walked out with a frown.
Joan of Arc
"What happened again?" The two of the main war faction studied the problem, so Joan of Arc had to consider whether there was another problem in England.
"It's not an accident, it's a very strange piece of information, some time ago there was a fainting of people near Reims," Duke Alençon's expression was a complex expression between tangled and distressed.
People fainted? To be honest, it's nothing more than a trifle. There is no need to pass it to him at all, it is enough for a small officer below to be in charge. If the trouble is smaller, even the officers don't have to solve it.
"What's the problem?" How could the news of the fainting of the people reach the Duke of Alençon? I couldn't know anything was unusual.
"It's up to me to explain" Lahair, who also looked puzzled, clasped his hands on his chest, and his strong body without armor still brought a lot of oppressive force.
Standing beside Joan of Arc, the wind was also looking at Lahair, and to be honest, he really hadn't paid much attention to the French generals before the battle that day.
Even Gilles was just a second-rate hero in his opinion, but he didn't expect it...... There are even knights comparable to Lancelot's level.
That's right. Under Wind's careful observation, Lahel can basically reach the same level as Lancelot, and is most suitable for the Berserker class with berserker ability.
It has a lot of power in itself, and once it goes berserk, it will rise a notch, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is overwhelming power to deal with ordinary heroic spirits.
I think it's the strongest French general I've ever seen, right? I just don't know who will win or lose when I really fight with Lancelot.
"The original incident took place in a small town around Reims. A villager who had come to the city to sell food suddenly fainted, and the result of the treatment was weakness"
"There have been a few similar incidents since then, but I didn't pay much attention to them because they weren't big deals."
The fainting of one or two villagers was not a big deal, and it was the time of the coronation of Charles VII, and they were all busy with various work and guards, so they naturally did not pay attention to small problems.
"It wasn't until a rumor came out that this matter was taken seriously"
"Rumors of witches in an unknown town around Reims, legend has it that the whole town has been brainwashed by witches, and every day they are like walking corpses, and they continue to offer blood to witches, causing the whole village to be weak and powerless, and new graves appear every day in the graves outside the village."
"Rumors of witches?"
"Yes, it's also the source of this matter" scratched his head troublesomely, the first thing was that Lahail's subordinates were in charge, otherwise he wouldn't have been involved.
"It wasn't a big deal, but the problem reached the ears of the church, and I sent a team of cavalry to check it out."
"The result ......" As soon as he talked about the result, Lahaier was obviously angry.
"When those bare boys came back, they said vaguely, and assured me that there would never be any witches there."
“……”
looked at Lahair suspiciously, with his means of rule, who dared to stand up in front of him? Well, if there is, then there is something really wrong with that village.
But from another point of view. Should it also be stated that there is no lie? It's just that something is hidden, which means that there really isn't a witch there?
"Naturally, Erahair's character will not give up on this, and a team of elites from the heavy cavalry has been selected to solve the problem, and the information just now has been sent back," Duke Alençon said.
It just so happened that Lahaile and he were studying some issues about the reform of the heavy cavalry, which made him know about it as well.
"The intelligence can be described in four words when it is generally combined, there is no witch ......"
"Isn't that the same as last time?"
"That's right. Those bastards still want to fool around like this, it's not that easy! Lahair said angrily, with a red cheek.
"Wait until I re-'train' them to see for myself what the hell is going on and what guy can confuse them and achieve the same result"
"Holy Maiden, if it's okay, I'll leave first"
Nodding slightly, looking at Lahair's reaction, he knew that he couldn't wait to go back and train the soldiers who were on a mission.
"Duke Alençon, let's leave first, and thank you for your advice last time," although it was useless from beginning to end. I fell asleep without knowing what was going on, but Joan of Arc said gratefully.
"Last opinion? Oh, that's it, the best thing to do is to tie the other person to their own chariot."
The Lord has been found! Before, Youfeng was still thinking, which soul faded into his family's Joan of Arc to instill bad thoughts, two philosophical nobles?
Since one of them was the Duke of Alençon, the other Duke of Dinoy did not run away, waiting. I'm not done with you!
Butterfly purple eyes were suddenly full of ill intentions, should you find an opportunity to pull the two of them into a fight in the name of a competition?
Stared at by the wind's gaze, he was stunned. Alençon said hello and hurried back to the house, but he had heard of the strength of this man, and it was better not to mess with him.
Tsk, you think you'll be able to get away with it when you get home? If I don't scrap you, I won't call Xixing Temple Youfeng!
“…… Joan of Arc, you won't be" Waiting for Alençon to disappear, he turned his head to see Joan of Arc's sparkling eyes. Let the wind have bad thoughts.
"Ghostwind, let's go to that town and explore"
"Lahaire just said that if there is a witch, he is not afraid of danger, but the witch likes to use the head as a refining vessel, and the blood and sebum of the virgin are used as materials to refine potions. A terrifying woman who can also do witchcraft."
The terrifying image of the witch was drawn in his mind, and the wind described it as much as possible to dispel Joan of Arc's thoughts.
Although I don't know why, no matter how the wind imagines it, the image of the witch that appears is the cute painting style of the cute girl.
The witch or something, sure enough, should still be like this.
Meng Lori, who is less than 1.5 meters tall, stands in front of a pot about the same as herself, stepping on a high platform and holding a large stirring rod to stir hard, and if you accidentally have any secret girl juice falling out of the pot, it is a normal image?
Or is it the image of a green-haired immortal girl, wearing a Lolita dress and eating pizza? Anyway, it's not vicious, it's just that a certain U-turn senior sister is not among them!
"No problem, Lahail said that there were no casualties among the cavalry who came back twice, but he refused to tell the truth, indicating that the witch there should not be a bad person, maybe there is something unspeakable"
"If it's really that kind of hateful witch, then it should be eradicated quickly, and if it exists for one more day, it may cause the loss of life" clenched his small fist majestically, and read a meaning from the dark wind in Joan of Arc's firm eyes.
"What if I don't agree?"
"I'll run to you to sleep in the middle of the night every day" After knowing the gender of the Wind, and at the request of the Wind, Joan of Arc and the Wind finally slept separately.
Of course, a certain saint has never felt any obstacle to gender in her heart, and if the wind refuses, it seems to be a very good choice.
"Needless to say, I agree! But don't be too far away from me" to know that Joan of Arc is now crooked, and is no longer the pure child, maybe somewhere will set himself up.
I really sleep with Joan of Arc every day, and after discovering Joan of Arc's 'highlights' a few days ago, I can't sleep at all!
"Hmm," nodded with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Is it my own delusion, why do I feel that I have fallen into some kind of trap whether I refuse or agree......
"Don't forget the last magician incident, maybe this time it's another strategy of the other party, and I can't protect you in time if it's too far away."
That time the other party knew that he should not act again for a short time after protecting Joan of Arc, and that blow was definitely not light, but it was impossible to say that there was any strange guy there.
Judging by the wind, there is not much chance of being a real witch.
"......" looked at the hands that were tightly clenched by Joan of Arc just after speaking, what was this subtle feeling......
"There's one more thing that's extremely important at the moment," he breathed, and the wind didn't know if the trip he had taken Joan of Arc out was right or not.
“??”
"Let's find out where the village and town this witch is...... from beginning to end, Lahaire didn't say where it was.
……
Before Lahel returned, he went to meet the cavalry, and after asking some relevant information, the two also secretly left Reims.
Although there are no tasks during this period, the saint's journey will still be accompanied by sergeants, which is too troublesome to be included in the investigation.
After a short time on horseback riding, the two stopped their horses in front of an ordinary village.
Judging from the intelligence of those soldiers, it should be here, an ordinary village that cannot be in an ordinary village, just like the village of Doremi where Joan of Arc was born.
Neglected, no specialties, population standards, no conspicuous prominence, if it weren't for the rumors of witches, it would be as unknown as most villages in the territory.
Of course, the rumors of witches are not widely circulated, only among a very small number of people, and if they are really more, I am afraid that even if they are not, this village will be finished, and the church in this era is not so kind.
"It should be here," said the wind as he tied the horses to a tree, imagining the map.
"I don't know what those soldiers mean"
Before the trip, I asked the soldiers who had come, and the result should be said to be very subtle......
Their loyalty to the saint made them choose to say part of it, that is, it was really not a witch in it, but it was indeed he who caused some of the villagers to weaken.
But those weakened villagers are voluntary, hoping that the holy woman will investigate everything clearly, and not directly kill them, which is quite strange.
And the reaction of those soldiers...... How did you make the wind feel like she was in the wrong world? (To be continued.) )
