Chapter 046: Nord's Glory
I only heard him say slowly: "I am a native of the Loire, and I have worked as a financial accountant for the lord of Iaya for several years in the city of Wocheze, so I can read and write. Because we were once escorted with the army to transport grain and grass, we were plundered by the pirates, and the lord blamed us for our incompetence, so we were dismissed from our posts. ”
"Then the pirates came, and when they passed by my house, they saw the diary I had written in my spare time, and knowing that I could write, they took the opportunity to kidnap my wife, and left me a letter to be their traitor in the village of the Loire, to report on the situation in the village."
"I had no choice but to obey them, so they released my wife and gave me a few gold dinars. By then, however, several of the letters I had written had already fallen into their hands...... As long as the faith is there, I must obey them, or the evidence will be handed over to the village chief, and my family and I will be put to death. ”
Avril nodded and said, "I see, in order to protect you and your family, you indirectly killed seventy or eighty other compatriots in the village. ”
Gordon raised his head and roared angrily: "I can't help it, my family's lives are in their hands, I can only obey them!" ”
Avril said disdainfully: "Don't speak of yourself so noblely, why did you take bribes from them?" Selling one's compatriots for money, isn't this also a thing that has no choice?! ”
Gordon was stunned, lowered his head in despair, and said, "I, I, I... I need to survive. ”
Avril smiled and said, "I'm not interested in being a messenger of justice, let me ask you, do you communicate once a few days?" ”
Gordon said, "Three days." ”
Avril said: "Is there a second person in the village who knows about your collaboration with the enemy?" ”
"Only I know."
"In the village of Loire, are you the only one collaborating with the enemy?"
Gordon shook his head and said, "I don't know, but in our Loire village, I really don't know anyone who can read and hyphenate except for me and the village chief." ”
"Where are their nests?"
"On a small island five miles from the coast."
Avril nodded and said, "Last question, when do they usually go out?" ”
"It's usually once every 3 days, because their style of acting is too vicious and they rarely leave room for people, so this group of people is notorious in this area, so there are very few pirates who act alone."
Avril smiled, "Okay, you can go back." ”
Gordon's eyes widened in surprise: "You... Didn't lie to me? ”
Avril smiled: "That's right, but after you go back, you have to try to cover up the injury on your finger, and besides, on the letterhead after three days, you still have to write the sentence 'Everything is as it was'... Don't try to tell the pirates, trust me, if I have the power to find out about your collaboration, I have the ability to find out your home address... Think of your family, dear Gordon. ”
Gordon was silent for a long time, sighed resignedly, nodded, and left.
Avril looked at Gordon's back in the distance, lifted the cobblestone again, slipped the letterhead inside, put the cobblestone back in place, and left the place.
She then turned on the ultra-long-range observation mode and followed Gordon from afar, until when she reached the village of the Loire, she saw Gordon enter a wooden house, and the door was opened by a rather delicate peasant woman, and she took him in... Seeing this action, she could finally be sure that this wooden house must be his home.
Avril returned to the peasant woman's house, but saw that there was a young man in the family, he had the same dark skin as the Nords of the North Sea, but he was wearing a strong body, and his muscles were like hard granite, full of amazing explosive power, and it was obvious that this young man's natural physical fitness was extremely high.
When the peasant woman saw Avril enter, she introduced, "Miss Doctor, this is my son, Dwight, who has just returned from a fishing trip. ”
When the tall little man saw Avril, his olive cheeks were stained with a touch of crimson, he bowed slightly, and said shyly, "Hello, Avril... Miss Vale. ”
Avril smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Dwight. ”
The peasant woman smiled: "This is my only son, and he also has an older sister who married into Wocheze and became a civil servant. I'm pecking hard to let this kid join the army, and I can fight for a future like this Mr. Ronnie, which can be regarded as a glorious ancestor. After all, in the small village of Loire, he will always be just a chicken, and only by fighting in the vast sky outside can he become a Nord eagle soaring in the sky! ”
Ken smiled and said, "You've won the prize, but I'm very optimistic about your son, he is very strong and can be considered a glorious Nord infantry soldier." ”
Su Hao interrupted the conversation and asked Avril, "How are things going?" ”
Avril poked her head out, glanced out of the house, and after making sure that the partition wall had no ears, she closed the door and said, "I found out, it was done by a villager named Gordon, and this is how it happened......"
When Avril finished speaking, Su Hao nodded, closed his eyes and thought slowly.
I only heard Ken say: "In fact, there are two biggest difficulties we are currently facing, one is the problem of internal ghosts, and the other is the problem of people's hearts. ”
Su Hao nodded and said, "Indeed, the two massacres of the Haikou were more severe each time, and they used their swords and blood to almost crush the will of the people of Loire Village to resist, and it is indeed even more difficult to rebuild their confidence." ”
And then the young man Dwight suddenly said: "If you are willing to help exterminate, then I am willing to help you!" ”
As he spoke, he clenched the heavy harpoon in his hand, his body seeming to tremble. Su Hao could hear that his tone contained unquestionable firm determination, as well as the boiling fighting intent that belonged to the hot-blooded youth!
I only heard the peasant woman say: "Since you have found the traitor, then there is a chance for revenge... We in the Loire can no longer bear this heavy burden of taxation, nor can we bear the white eyes of our neighbors, let alone bear this shame! Blood debt can only be washed away with blood! ”
Su Hao listened, but shook his head disapprovingly, and said: "I know you are vengeful, but this matter is easier said than done, not to mention the difficulties we are currently facing, you mother and son, are you ready to sacrifice?" Also, can you really trust us unconditionally? ”
Dwight nodded, then looked apprehensively at his mother, and the peasant woman said word by word:
"Even if the knife and axe are on the neck, a hundred deaths will not change my will!"
Su Hao took a deep look at this peasant woman, he didn't expect this woman to be amazing, and she had such courage and courage that even men couldn't match! The peasant woman stared at her firmly, her gaze not flickering or shifting.
After a long time, Su Hao spit out a sentence: "Women don't let me have eyebrows!" ”
Dwight got up angrily and said, "But mother, the pirates are cold-blooded and ruthless, and the swords are eyeless on the battlefield, and it is difficult to take care of each other. I will never forgive myself in this life! ”
When the peasant woman heard this, she shook her head and said, "Actually, since the last time... The last time the slaughter of the pirates began, my heart was half dead... If I can't take revenge, then I won't be happy in my life! ”
Dwight's gaze darkened a little as he listened.
Su Hao listened, but was a little dazed, but Avril saw it thoroughly, what she said in Su Hao's ear, Su Hao then understood, he remembered what she said:
"This time, they... He committed adultery with all the young girls and young women under the age of 40 and over the age of 15 in our village..."
Judging by her age, she was probably one of those victims.
Su Hao said: "Okay, then I want to settle the situation... For example, each family was affected by this group of pirates, and which respected old man died... This kind of thing. ”
When the peasant woman heard this, she told her sentence by sentence:
"First of all, there is the village chief's family, whose eldest son, who had high hopes, was drowned alive in the sea by the pirates......
Avril, on the other hand, stood outside the window, staring at Gordon's room all the time, intensely and meticulously.
……
An hour later, Su Hao, Avril and Dwight walked out of the room, Avril went straight to Gordon's house, and Su Hao and Dwight found the village chief's house.
The village chief's house is a single-family wooden house, and it looks like no one has taken care of it for a long time, and the cedar door panel is full of cracks and insect traces, and there is still dirty mud and dust in the cracks.
He knocked lightly on the door twice, and after a long time, the door was opened with a creak, and what greeted Su Hao's eyes was an extremely old, weak, and somewhat hunched old man, who seemed to have entered his prime.
And the peasant woman once told Su Hao: "The village chief is actually only 50 years old. ”
The old village chief glanced at Su Hao expressionlessly, coughed twice, and then said, "Hello, sir, this is Loire Village." ”
Su Hao gave Dwight a look, Dwight understood, so he gently closed the door, closed it tightly, and then stood at the door, while Su Hao gently inserted the latch.
Seeing this, the old village chief slowly retreated step by step, and he asked in a cold voice, "This gentleman, what do you want to do?" ”
Su Hao said lightly: "I have something I want to tell you... Don't get me wrong, I have no ill will. ”
With that, he unsheathed his sword and scabbard, placed it on the pine wooden table, and walked away from the wooden table.
When the old village chief saw this scene, the panic in his eyes eased a little, but he was still very vigilant, and asked rhetorically: "What's the matter, can't you say it in broad daylight?" ”
Su Hao shook his head and said, "If you can, I hope the two of us will discuss it first, if we can't get your approval and help, then there is no need to continue this matter." ”
He then gave him a detailed account of what had happened, as well as his own thoughts.
“… I hope that through these means, I can help you to eradicate these pirates. ”
When the old village chief heard this, he stared at Su Hao's eyes carefully, as if he wanted to explore Su Hao's true thoughts through these clear eyes.
In the chaotic continent of Calradia, there are very few people who are willing to be such a good person.
"Why are you helping us."
Su Hao looked at him quietly and replied slowly, "Because... I am also a Norder. ”
