Chapter Eighty-Nine: Indiscriminate Killing of Innocents

The monk didn't eat meat, so he took a piece of white bread and tore it open in his mouth, and the jailer came over cautiously, handed the ring and the coins to the monk with both hands, and squeezed out a smile desperately, and said:

"Sir, please don't be surprised, that, that"

He stammered and couldn't go on, he had always extorted money from prisoners, and he suddenly had to return it, and he had no experience at all, so how to say it fluently.

Hui Gang felt a little funny in his heart, but he just reached out and took the ring back, and replied:

"These meals must have cost you a lot of money, so let's take this money as compensation. ”

At this moment, the corridor opposite the cell door suddenly became bright, and the bishop and the warden walked in, illuminated by the wind lights of several soldiers.

After the prison warden came in, he first looked Hui Gang up and down, and secretly scolded the soldiers who were arresting people for being blind. The blonde young man in front of him must be from a good background, isn't it a trouble to catch him?

Or with a smile to say:

"Mr. Fleet, we have ascertained just now that there is nothing wrong with you, and you can leave now. ”

After speaking, he looked at the monk's face, and saw that Huigang's face was pale, and he couldn't help but sweat on his forehead, and continued:

"This time, our garrison will definitely investigate thoroughly and give you an answer. ”

Hui Gang didn't think about this, he could feel that although many people left one after another from afternoon to evening, there were also many people who continued to stay in prison, and after coming to this world for a long time, he also knew that there was no big difference between this world and the dark places of the world in the previous life, and most of these people who had no way to get out today were probably wronged.

Thinking of this, the monk asked:

"I don't know when those who came with me will be released, I think most of the people here are innocent. ”

The prison warden stammered and couldn't speak, he couldn't tell the outsider in front of him, the rest of the people were going to be executed, and when he was in trouble, the bishop next to him took over the words, and he bowed slightly before he spoke, which was considered etiquette. It is important to know that the archbishop's envoys are difficult to judge in terms of rank, but they cannot be lacking in etiquette.

"Mr. Huigang, I'm Bishop Anola, who is in charge of the area of Javier City, this is not the place to speak, please come with me. ”

After meeting the priest who almost sold girls in Gravel Town, the monk's impression of the Church of Light could not be said to be too good, and when he knew that Father Philip was originally a member of the Grand Duke's Mansion and was not a professional clergyman, the good opinion of the old priest towards the Church of Light also disappeared.

But obviously he couldn't stay here longer, so he called the girl who had already eaten and walked out of the cell with the bishop, and the warden smiled awkwardly and did not follow.

When he went outside, the bishop's attendants came in a carriage, but Hui Gang was a little confused, and asked Bishop Anola:

"You haven't answered my question yet, what will happen to those people? ”

Bishop Anora cleared his throat and replied:

"Mr. Huigang, the purpose of our church is not to interfere in local affairs, and we must trust Governor Duke and General Barty to deal with it fairly. ”

Hearing these prevaricating words, coupled with the fact that the bishop had been talking about us, the monk was a little impatient, and looked at the kind and gentle face of the bishop in front of him, and felt that it was extremely false, and said in a cold voice:

"I think you must know what's going to happen, please tell me. ”

The voice was slightly angry, and the bishop who was about to be confused felt that the young man in front of him suddenly seemed to reveal the majesty of the superior, although he was much older than the other party, he was afraid in his heart, and remembered that the other party was the person next to the archbishop, and he didn't dare to continue to talk inexplicably, so he lowered his head and whispered:

"The Governor's Palace and the garrison have jointly issued an order that all outsiders who cannot be given their origin should be put to death. ”

As soon as the words fell, he suddenly felt a tremor in his heart, and he was so frightened that he suddenly took a few steps back, Hui Gang was angry, he probably estimated that there were probably hundreds of people inside who were not released, should they all be killed. Bishop Anora hastened to explain:

"The union of the city-states of Maidan has not been very stable since the beginning of the previous year, and as soon as this incident came out, the garrison decided to make an example of a hundred people, and I went there just now to prepare to make a confession to these people before death. ”

Hui Gang took a long breath and told himself to calm down, he had noticed from just now that the bishop had been talking about us, and was quite respectful to him, and decided to use this to listen further, and then asked:

"When were those men executed?"

The bishop said in his heart that if he hadn't seen you, he would have been killed tonight, but he replied:

"According to the schedule, the execution was supposed to be carried out three days later. ”

The monk nodded, his spirit regained his calm, and he had a plan in his heart, at this time, the bishop next to him asked the monk in a low voice:

"I don't know if you have any business to come this time, Cardinal Hill went to Drew's capital a few days ago, and I am in charge of the church affairs of the city-state of Maidan, for the time being. ”

Hui Gang glanced at him coldly, did not answer, the bishop immediately remembered that Archbishop Royster has always been responsible for all kinds of secret affairs in the Church of Light, and this time his envoy came, presumably it was also confidential, and he didn't dare to ask more at the moment.

Riding the bishop's carriage back to the hotel, it was almost dawn, Huigang and the girl who had been tossing all night felt very tired, Fei'er fell asleep in the carriage, the monk carried the girl out of the car, and covered Fei'er and the little winged lion who were sleeping heavily.

Huigang didn't dare to stay away, so he simply meditated cross-legged by the door of Fei'er's room, but his heart couldn't be calm at all, when he thought of the innocent civilians who were about to be executed, the monk felt like his heart was burning, Huigang thought of the girl on the side, and there was some hesitation in his heart, it didn't matter if he was chivalrous and righteous, if he dragged down Fei'er, who didn't know at all, inexplicably remembered that in his previous life, when he was walking the rivers and lakes, because he couldn't see the hungry people suffering, he killed the tax supervisor of the imperial court, and as a result, he caused a big disaster.

forced Shaolin to tie himself to the torture table, and then the thunder split the body, reincarnated in another world, the monk's mood was very chaotic, and he didn't realize that he already had concerns.

Fei'er slept until the morning and got up, after coming out of the Duchy of Lanhe, the girl's spirit was getting better and better, and she didn't need much sleep at all, when the two of them were having breakfast, the monk heard that four people were walking in the direction of his room, and the steps were neat and powerful, could it be that yesterday's soldiers came to arrest people, and Hui Gang was wondering.

Those few people had already walked to the door, knocked lightly a few times, the monk went to open the door, and saw four soldiers in full armor standing outside the door, these soldiers looked more fierce than those soldiers yesterday, and the armor on their bodies was much more luxurious. Hui Gang judged according to his limited knowledge that these people should be of the rank of a guard officer.

The leader stepped forward, struck his right chest with a fist with his left hand, and then bent down and saluted solemnly, and introduced himself:

"Hello Mr. Huigang, I am the lieutenant of the city-state guard, General Barty has invited you and Miss Fei'er to the headquarters as guests, please come with me. ”

General Barty, Hui Gang suddenly reflected, this is the general who gave the death penalty order mentioned by Bishop Anola last night, maybe it will be a little better to meet this powerful figure in the garrison.

followed the girl on the side and said hello, the two of them followed a few officers out of the hotel after a little tidying up, the Drew Imperial garrison had already prepared a carriage, several officers were guarding the side, passers-by and the people in the surrounding inns were surprised to discuss, what kind of big man lived in this hotel, and let the officers of the garrison as escorts.

The core of the Drew Empire's rule over the union of the city-states of Maidan is in the northern part of the city of Javier, where in addition to the various administrative institutions, is the official residence of various Drew officials, because of the wealth of the city-state union, so the offices and residences of these officials are also magnificently repaired.

The only exception was the headquarters of the city-state's guards, which was almost a small military fortress, with high walls made of large granite stones, huge crossbow arrows gleaming on the protruding platforms and turrets, deep trenches dug around it, and heavily armed soldiers in awe all around, all in awe of the extravagant atmosphere of the city.

Seeing this, the girl Fei'er was a little cringe, although Huigang didn't speak, but she couldn't help but secretly admire this general's good management of the army.

Several officers respectfully took Hui Gang and the girl to their destination, and with the announcement of the guards at the door, the heavy wooden door opened, and the monk saw the general.

The door closed behind him, and the monk looked at it, and the interior was so simple and unusually decorated that even the hotel room where they lived was better than this, except for a few chairs and a large wooden table, the rest were armor, weapons, and maps. General Barty sat behind the table, unmoved, looking the monk and the girl up and down.

The general was tall and burly, a head taller than the monk, his face was like a knife and an axe, with both edges and corners, his eyes were slightly squinted, and his whole body was imposing.

The monk ignored the other party's rudeness, in his opinion, it was normal for a high-ranking official like the other party to be arrogant when he met a civilian like himself, but what he didn't expect was that the other party thought that he was the archbishop's envoy, and he had to give him a dismissal first. Seeing Hui Gang's indifferent attitude, the evaluation in his heart suddenly rose to a higher level.
