There was a light snow in the sky, and the north wind was blowing and people's faces ached. Refugees from the west poured like a tidal wave to the Easter border. Among them were men and women, old and young, well-dressed and timid Shaonan civilians, and ragged and frightened Weisha people.

A pair of grandchildren were walking in front, but the old woman was weak, and her legs and feet were not good, so she walked slowly, and the people behind shouted and scolded her, urging her not to get in the way. The old woman whispered an apology, and ordered her grandson to help her aside, but the man pushed her away, and then seventeen or eighteen men and women in the prime of life followed, and squeezed her into the mud by the roadside, and she was covered in snow. Her little grandson was about to reason with those people with red eyes, but was stopped by her grandmother, who saw that the old man seemed to be very tired, and hurriedly helped her to sit down on the side of the road to rest.

Minter looked at this situation from afar, and felt a little angry in his heart, those Weisha people themselves were fleeing, why did they bully other refugees like this? Looking at the frozen red hands of the old man and the child, he suddenly remembered that he still had a few winter clothes, so he raised his feet and walked towards them.

But he only took two steps, and a hand reached out behind him to put it on his shoulder, and when he looked back, Alex was looking at him with disapproval: "How many people can you save?" If you save this, will you save it next time? Always stop to help others, what about our tasks? ”

Minter pursed his lips: "But I feel really sad to leave like this." ”

"Even if you give them something or money, someone will take it away immediately, and then they will be hurt. Let's hurry as soon as possible. The sooner they get the things, the sooner the Warcraft is destroyed, and these people will be able to return to their homes and live a normal life. ”

Minter also knew he had a point. After one last glance at the grandfather and grandson, he slowly left with Alex leading the horse.

Seeing more and more people fleeing, Minter couldn't help but ask, "Have you ever inquired about anything?" Why are there still so many refugees? "The battle was not ideal, but at least it was a stalemate. It stands to reason that there will never be another refugee on such a large scale.

Alex sighed. Said: "Encore has fallen. ”

Minter was taken aback: "What?!" ”

"It's true. I just heard from an encore resident that the monster has already captured it, but fortunately, the Van Ah side was willing to open the border to some residents at that time, otherwise more people would die. ”

"Huh? Isn't that right? Minter asked, confused. If Van Ah is willing to take in the people. Why are so many Weisa fleeing to our East?! ”

Alex glanced at him: "Stupid! Only the elderly, children and women will be allowed to enter the country. At most, add the sick and wounded. Those young and strong. Let them walk into the country. Who knows what will happen?! In fact, Brahman is still wary of other countries. It's just that my words to Father Riddle were convincing. They were willing to send ten monks to help. Ten people! It's simply not enough! Ori five. Five in Sen County. Elsewhere it is gone. Even if you go back to China now and call someone. It's going to be a long wait. For the time being, I can only rely on these few people to support it. ”

Minter sighed. He actually knows that. Thankfully, Father Riddle's return relieved the pressure on the front. But now the war is deadlocked. I don't know when there will be a breakthrough. He was worried that the magic city wall of Shaonandi didn't know how long it would last. I heard that it is only a month at most. You'll have to recast the spell; He was also worried that the magicians didn't know how long they would last. To make them more sure. He also donated a lot of earth magic crystals left by his grandfather; Even more worrying. It's late November. If the war drags on until next spring. will catch up with the breeding period of the Warcraft Land. According to Father Riddle. At that time, the number of breeding in the Warcraft Land will be at least twice as large as the current one!

There's so much to worry about. He had to abandon the front line to fight. With Alex. As the envoy of the four-nation alliance of East, Shaonan, Fan'a, and Nuojia. Go to the Elven Forest for help.

Alex glanced at him. Turning over the horse: "Don't think about it so much. Let's go. There's not much food to buy here. Let's get to the next town. ”

Minter took a deep breath. Nodding. So he got on his horse and set off.

They rode through the crowds, intending to go to Watertown first, then turn to Siko to enter the eastern part of Nogar, go north along the foot of Mount Toure, and then walk back to the path that Xiao Tianjian had taken with his granddaughter, and go backwards to the Blade of the Gods, from where they entered the Elven Forest.

As they passed through the city of Water, they found that the Esther Frontier Guards had been mobilized, dozens of East's magicians had been summoned, and several monks had been sent to participate. It is said that Walter City deliberately built a city wall to connect it with the one in Shaonan to form a unified defense line to prevent demonic beasts from taking advantage of loopholes.

Minter was very happy to hear this, and when he heard that Alex's magic initiation teacher was also here, he asked him to send several magic crystals of medium or higher levels. Alex looked at him in amazement: "Hey... Do you know what it is?! Just give it away for nothing, are you sure your brain isn't broken?! ”

Minter gave him a blank look: "I have a good brain." These are all fun things that my grandfather collected, and he didn't really know magic. He gave it to my dad, who gave it to me. I can use it however I like, as long as I can kill or drive away the monsters, what are these things? ”

Alex raised an eyebrow, sent all the magic crystals to his teacher, and when he returned, he reached out to Minter, "Do you still have it?" Bring me a few pieces. ”

Minter knocked his hand off and pointed north with a horsewhip in his hand: "Let's go, we won't spend the night in the city!" ”

The two braved the increasingly heavy wind and snow for several days, and arrived at Sico three days later. As soon as I entered the town, I found that the residents were packing their luggage, loading the trucks, shoulder-to-shoulder, even ignoring the wind and snow, and walking out of the town. The two hurriedly went to the security bureau to inquire, only to learn that Melonori had returned to Ito, and most of the colleagues of the security bureau were not there.

Minter was taken aback: "How can there still be a magic array?!" Didn't you solve it last time?! ”

The colleague said bitterly: "This is probably new, we have inspected that area before." Didn't find this. Faith was leading people to search for any other places. Little Marlene tried all her means, but she only destroyed a little ground, so she had to stay there every day to kill the monsters. Fess has been reported to the General Administration. Let's see if we can send a few more powerful magicians. ”

What a ghost!

Mint cursed in his heart, but Alex on the side asked thoughtfully, "When we entered the town just now." I found everyone packing their bags and seemed to be planning to travel far. Is it because of this? ”

"Yes, Melori decided, because a dozen or so civilians living in the suburbs were attacked by demonic beasts a few days ago. He worries that the people in the town are not safe either. As you all know, the walls of the town have been destroyed a lot after the previous toss, and now the monsters will jump high, if they are really let in, where will people run? Residents have been retreating to the north for the past few days. Closer to Chiton and Xhosa, far away to Medon, and some people also plan to go directly to Ito, where it is safest. ”

Minter and Alex looked at each other, both helpless. It is good to evacuate the civilians, there is less to worry about, and the army and the people of the Security Department can let go of the killing spree.

Tired from the day's travel, they hurried to rest for the night. I also bought enough food and fuel for the road. Minter also deliberately bought some more magic materials at a low price, and the two set off on horseback again.

Just arrived in the Central District. From a distance, he saw a group of Easter cavalry leading their horses and approaching, led by a tall figure. Black hair, very eye-catching. Minter looked at it a few more times, and when the other party turned his face, he seemed to have been struck by lightning, and the whole person froze, and muttered: "Grandpa..."

"What?" Alex didn't hear him, but he came to his senses.

After a closer look, the person is indeed very similar to his grandfather, not only has his grandfather's signature black hair and black eyes, but also has a similar face contour, but his eyebrows are deeper than his grandfather's, the bridge of his nose is higher, and his skin is whiter.

Minter immediately guessed who he was. Bewen Shaw - Cardo, grandfather brought up from childhood, and personally taught the grandson of the adult, the eldest son of the great uncle, and his eldest cousin. Although I have long heard that the other party looks like my grandfather, it is the first time I have actually seen him.

Minte's heart was a little sour, he was about to walk the road that his grandfather took him, but he met a cousin who looked like his grandfather on the way, but it was not his grandfather. Grandpa has been away for so many years, when will he come back? Has he forgotten that in this world, there is also his little granddaughter?

Alex didn't see him answer for a long time, so he followed his line of sight, and it was somewhat clear: "That's Bewen from the Kado, it seems to be your cousin, right?" Do you know him? ”

"The first time I saw him, but he looked like his grandfather, and I recognized it at first sight." Minter glanced at his companion, "Also, his surname is Xiao, or Xiao-Cardo, but he is not from the Kado family. ”

Alex pursed his lips and looked at Bevan a few more times: "He is very famous in Ito, I have heard about it since I was a child, and I have met it a few times. But I didn't expect him to run into such a dangerous place, and I heard that his father was also stationed near Siko. ”

Minter didn't have a good impression of the eldest uncle, and didn't want to mention him, so he glanced at Bewen a few more times, and the other party seemed to feel his gaze, turned his head to look over, was slightly stunned, and nodded with a polite smile.

Minter tugged at the corners of his mouth and nodded in return. At this time, a voice came from behind him: "Huh? Mint, why are you here?! When I looked back, it turned out to be Marlene, who walked over with a tired face.

Alex raised his eyebrows: "Yo, isn't the goddess of war going to deal with Warcraft?" How can I come back when I am free? ”

"Die!" Marlene crossed her waist and raised her head, and the knife scraped over her two eyes, "I didn't ask you, go aside!" ”

Minter couldn't help but laugh: "It's amazing, it's completely different now than it was then, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have wondered if you were Marlene!" ”

Marlene smirked, but the tiredness on her face had gone a lot. Alex sneered lightly, and was secretly slapped on the back by Minter, and then smiled and looked at the sky.

Minter took out a few bottles from the storage ring and handed them to Marlene: "For you, the physical strength supplement, the blue se is to replenish the magic power, you support it alone, it's very hard, right?" ”

Marlene was a little moved, and hurriedly took the bottle: "It doesn't matter, I feel that I have improved a lot, a few uncles have arrived today, I can come back to rest, and I won't be so tired in the future." She saw that there was some water on the edge of the lid on the bottle, which seemed to be newly matched, and the bottle was the kind she was used to drinking, and her heart was even more moved: "Are you a new match?" Specially assigned to me? ”

Minter smiled, "This one is more suitable for you." I heard yesterday that you've been supporting yourself on your own, so I wanted to do you a little favor. ”

"Thank you..."Marlene's eyes were red, and she pulled down Minter and hugged her gently, Minter smiled and patted her shoulder: "Go back and have a good rest, remember to drink." ”

"Hmm!" Marlene nodded solemnly and jumped away. Minter smiled, but when he turned around, he found that Bewen was staring at him, with surprise, hesitation, and expectation in his eyes, obviously having discovered who he was. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, nodded again, pulled Alex by, got on the horse and set off.

Bewen looked at the figure in the distance, and his thoughts were a little complicated. Xiao Minte, another grandson of his grandfather, is different from him, and different from his younger brother, although he doesn't look like his grandfather, he seems to be more like a hero. There was a faint glimmer of joy in his heart. If this cousin can officially become a member of the Xiao family, maybe there will be less pressure on him, right?

But he also knew that this was impossible, and even the second uncle, who he had known since childhood, could not be recognized by his father, and this cousin whose father's name was unknown would probably only wander away from the family forever.
