Verse 96: I will accept you
The crew was restless, and there was doubt in their eyes when they looked at the needle.
"Thread, watch your words!" Spirulina strode forward.
But the next moment, Needlegold reached out to stop him.
Needle Gold calmly looked at the excited rope with clear blue eyes: "I'm just seeking truth from facts and upholding justice." ”
"The identity of the orcs should not be an obstacle for us to find out the real culprit. ”
"Assuming that Mango is not the real murderer, then think about it: you have framed an innocent person, and because you took the shipwright in revenge, you implicated more innocent people in the ship, and put them to death. And the real murderer may still be alive, right next to you, watching you frame you indiscriminately, and see the fight between you and Mango and the others as a good show. ”
"If that's the case, don't you think it's an indulgence of sin and a dust of justice?"
Needlegold's tone was always steady, and the rhetorical question made Xisuo's face flush, but he could only be speechless.
The crew's small chatter also calmed down, and they had to admit that what Needle Gold said was very reasonable.
"If you have solid evidence, I will do justice to you. Believe me, this is my needle, a Templar promise to you. Needle Gold patted the cord on the shoulder.
Saso opened his mouth, looking at the needle gold speechless, he turned his head and looked at the expressionless mane again, and then said angrily: "Lord needle gold, I believe you." ”
Zi Di narrowed her eyes: "But Lord Needle Gold, we have found traces of Mane Ge and Three Knife. They deliberately cleaned up the battlefield and cleaned up their footprints. There's malice in it, isn't it?"
"It's my habit. Mango took the rare initiative to explain, and what he said before Needlegold changed his impression of the young knight a lot.
"I have to take responsibility for myself and for our group. Even if the boatsmith doesn't want to go with me, I'll do everything I can to capture him alive!" Mango made no secret of his intentions.
"Bad guy!" the stupid big man heard this, and angrily slammed the wooden stick to the ground.
At this time, Needle Gold remembered the guess of the black scroll.
He stared at Mane: "This is the style of a soldier. You've served in the military? Which army?"
Mango snorted, and instead of retorting, he didn't answer, but said, "Are you interrogating the prisoner, Templar?"
"Of course not. Needle Jin shook his head, "But this matter needs to be solved after all." Good communication is a prerequisite for cooperation. If you repeatedly refuse to prove yourself, how are we going to believe you?"
Mango sneered: "You want me to prove myself? How can you prove your identity? Will anyone who comes out and calls you a nobleman and says that you are a Templar? I heard that every Templar is always under the watchful eye of the Holy Emperor. Perhaps you should pray to the gods and send down a magic so that we can be convinced. ”
Needle Jin suddenly clenched the hilt of his sword, his brows furrowed deeply, his face sank, his eyes became cold as ice, and he whispered: "Mane, pay attention to your words! You dare to despise the gods! I carry the gaze of the Holy Emperor, this is the blessing of the gods." Divine art is a gift from the gods, not a performance or a proof of identity. Apologize to me now, right now, or you'll be in the wrath of a Templar!"
Needlegold said, taking a step forward and approaching Mango.
Behind him, the blue-green algae, the black roll and the others all stroked their weapons, and Zidi reached into the purse, and the stupid big man picked up the wooden stick and let out a low roar from the depths of his throat. After a while, the bleeding from the wound on the little giant's body had stopped. The Giant's Bloodline gave him great resilience.
Mango's face changed slightly, and he realized that he had said the wrong thing.
He touched his chest with his right hand, bowed his head to the needle, and bowed: "I am wrong, how can I dare to despise a god? I swear that I will contribute 300 gold to the Holy Ming Temple as a punishment for my inconsequential speech. And I will kneel before the priest of the Holy Ming and take the initiative to repent of today's sins. ”
This is the time of the gods.
Slandering the gods is indeed condemned.
Just as aristocrats should be high, faith is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Even the three knives and the others who followed Mane Ge were all uneasy when they heard Mane Ge's words just now, and privately thought that Mane Ge was too reckless.
Seeing that Mane Ge's attitude of admitting his mistake was very sincere, Needle Gold's face was a little pale.
"Wait, Mane, do you dare to swear to the gods you believe in, that you are not the one who attacked the camp and killed the captain?"
"Assault on the camp?" Mango wondered.
"Our camp has been attacked by manta monkeys and rhinos, and you can swear that you didn't control these herds?" the black roll continued to ask.
Mane Ge snorted coldly, crossed his arms and raised his head, and shut up without answering.
The people around Sandao were laughed angrily: "It's really imaginative!"
"Use your brains, we're all here. ”
"How do we control these beasts?"
Kuromaki sneered: "Then how do you explain that our second camp, as well as the cordlines and shipwrights, have just been besieged by the beasts. ”
"We've been attacked before, so why doubt us?!"
Black Roll stared at Mane Ge and narrowed his eyes, "You're a half-orc, even if you don't have special means. You don't have these people around you!"
Sandao stared at the black scroll indifferently, and asked lightly: "Can a half-orc manipulate the beast herd? is it because of the orc blood?"
Kuromaki sneered: "Then why did you show up in time to rescue the stupid big man and the shipwright?
"So, we were wrong to save the shipwright in time?"
"Didn't your knights show up just in time?" someone immediately asked.
"Speaking of which, just because we're not pure-bloods, you doubt us!" The people around Sandao were indignant.
"Don't say anything. Mango stretched out his hand to stop the argument, and he looked at the needle, his attitude becoming cold and tough again, "I don't have any explanation for this. I don't need to explain it to you. ”
Needle Gold sighed deeply, and also stopped the questioning of the people behind him.
"There is no point in continuing to argue. ”
"Let's go, let's go back to camp together. Needle Gold took the initiative to send an invitation to Mane Ge and the others.
"What?"
"Your Excellency!"
"Your Excellency, you're going to bring these goods back to camp?"
Suso and the others widened their eyes, rather surprised by Needlegold's decision.
Needle Gold slowly scanned the people with blue eyes, his gaze clear and sincere: "Otherwise?"
"We are people in the same boat, we are all shipwrecked victims. ”
"We have wounded people now and need to go back to camp to recuperate. And they also had the wounded, who were injured by rescuing the boatmen. I've seen it with my own eyes. ”
"Seeing is not believing, my lord. The black roll spoke, "What if it's a bitter love scene?
"Thank you for the reminder. Needle Gold looked at the black scroll appreciatively, "What you say makes sense, there is indeed such a possibility." However, there's another possibility, isn't it?"
"Until all the possibilities, all the doubts, are not really confirmed, we should not deny one possibility because of another. It's possible that Mango was wronged, isn't it?"
"Imagine if he were a pure-blooded Terran instead of an orc, would you be much less suspicious of him?"
The crowd was dumbfounded.
Needlegold turned again, looking at the man on Mango's side.
"We come from many places, we have different identities, but here we are all victims who have been reduced to the island to escape. ”
"Our goals are the same. We should stick together, any suspicion, apathy, disgust, antagonism, etc., will make it difficult for us to cooperate, thus reducing the possibility of us escaping here. ”
"I am the Templar Needle Gold. Here I promise you that I will treat anyone fairly and justly, no matter where he comes from, no matter what race he is, no matter what blood he is. I will also punish the criminals severely, punish the real culprits, and let the crimes not go unpunished. I will do my best to lead everyone in the search for hope of salvation!"
For a moment, everyone looked at the blonde boy and was moved by his categorical words.
"You...... Will you accept us?"
As the head of the mercenary group, he has dealt with many different types of beings. However, even a goblin like him, who has a lot of life experience, rarely sees such a superior and noble person who treats everyone equally!
Needle Gold smiled: "I am a Templar, and I will not deceive you with lies. ”
"Templar ......" was a word that many people chewed on in their mouths, and they were a little distracted.
"Interesting. Manegomore, his chin rubbed, looked deeply at the needle, and looked at the young knight in front of him with a new gaze.
The next moment, the fierce warrior raised his voice slightly: "Okay! Then I'll go back with you." ”
"Your Excellency?" the people around Mango were surprised.
Just as the others were guarding against Mango, Mango and the others were also guarding against each other.
Sandao immediately said: "My adult's decision is my decision." ”
The former mercenary group members who disagreed with this immediately shut up.
The rescue of the ropes, the shipwrights and others was very timely and successful.
Although the attack of the manta monkey and the silver rhinoceros was ferocious, everyone was only injured, and there were no casualties.
The journey back went smoothly, and a large number of people returned to the camp safely.
"There is still an arrow tower?"
"They set up camp so quickly?"
"It's been attacked by beasts, too. ”
"Didn't you say it? It's a bunch of manta monkeys, and that silver rhinoceros!"
The people around Sandao talked a lot.
Mu Ban and the others were overjoyed when they saw Needle Gold, Thin Rope and others, and when they saw Mane Ge and his party, they showed a look of surprise again.
After the explanation of Heijuan and others, as well as the appeasement of needle gold, Mu Ban and others reluctantly accepted this fact.
However, under their strong statement, Mango and the others were not accepted into the camp after all, but were temporarily stationed nearby.
ps: The subscription is bleak, guys.
To be honest, it was a bit of a surprise to me. When the book was put on the shelves, there were more than 80,000 collections, but at present, there are only more than 2,000 first orders, and more than 1,000 are averaged. This subscription ratio is a bit unreasonable.
In the morning, I analyzed the reasons:
1. The slow pace of books, especially in the early stage, leads to more and more people raising books.
Because of the group portrait and drama, the 2 books adopt a movie structure, lay a lot of foreshadowing, and the pen power is scattered to each character, resulting in the conflict points are not dense, and people have no motivation to chase more.
3. When the protagonist has not yet reached enlightenment, the Templars' great light and Fang Yuan's style are completely two extremes. A large number of our original book friends have lost their patience.
4. The power system is set up old and has no new ideas.
5. There are too many things to improve, too many steps, and there are too many eggs.
There may be other reasons, and I will reflect and actively adjust.
Appeal.,Students who want to see pirated copies try to read as much as possible.,Each chapter is only a few cents for a genuine subscription.。
Indeed, this kind of writing technique may not be in line with the reading habits of online articles.
I expected this, but I didn't expect it to be so miserable.
As I said in my testimonials, I let go of any burden of fame and explored a new path of writing as a pure author. So, no matter what the final outcome is, I'm comfortable accepting it.
I firmly believe that good is good, and solid and wonderful story content has a natural attraction, and gradually there will be more book lovers who can appreciate this way of writing.
Just like when "Gu Zhenren" was first written, it was similar to the current situation, and then it was written slowly.
So rest assured, I'm still going to do my best. This book, like my other books, will not be eunuchs or unfinished as long as it is not a powerful external cause.
I saw that some book friends said that I wanted to explode more, too, but I couldn't explode it. Group writing, plot adjustment, and learning and absorbing knowledge all take a lot of time and energy. At present, two changes are already the limit, and in the future, they may be adjusted to one change because of the concept of quality first. But I'll do my best.
I have to sigh that in the past ten years, there is a strong practical foundation for the formation of the writing rules of online writing. The experience of fragmented reading of online texts, such a subscription incentive mechanism, it is natural for the vast majority of people to choose the characteristic writing style of online texts. After all, you have to eat first, and you want to survive.
But I'm going to stick with it.
I think the moonlight is more beautiful, and I will write more beautifully if I write like this!
