Chapter 12, The Wolves and Thieves
With a piercing grinding sound, a ray of light penetrated through the tiny hole!
"Wow! We're going to get out of here!" Peggy exclaimed excitedly, and it took three times to devour the stele vine before she gnawed a small hole more than a meter high from the five-meter-thick stone door!
The two of them bent down along the small hole and finally got out of the dark cave, and took a deep breath of fresh air, which made people feel comfortable and wanted to shout.
"Ah!! we finally came out alive!" Du Lei shouted at the top of his voice.
Following Du Lei's example, Peggy also shouted, "I must live well!"
"Hahaha. The two of them sat on the grass together, this is a small hill, I don't know where it is, Peggy took out a white bead from her waist, a white light flashed, this bead rose to the sky, turned into a shining point of light, even in the daytime is very eye-catching!
"This is a signal to contact Uncle Bud, and I'm sure he'll be able to find us soon. Peggy said with a smile on her face.
"Why don't those black-clothed people do it directly, but instead go to such great lengths to teleport you to this cave that no one knows?" Du Lei asked the question that had been holding in his heart, the strength of those people was fully capable of entanglement that Martial King Knight named Bard and kill Peggy!
Peggy's face showed a hint of decline and said, "They are not from the Dark Temple, although the power they use is very similar to the Dark Temple, but if they kill me, they will definitely leave us behind, so they will use this despicable means to trap us in this cave, if we can't be found, we will be trapped in the cave, no one will find a trace, they just don't want me to reach the Holy Kingdom alive, even if I can't become a saint, I will get the right to make them afraid." ”
"Do you know who is going to kill you?" Du Lei heard the unusual meaning from Peggy's words.
Peggy wasn't talking, as she said, everyone has their own secrets and doesn't want to share them with others. Holding his legs in his hands, he buried his head between his legs, as if he didn't want to deal with anyone.
Two hours later, the sound of galloping horses came from a distance, and I saw a puff of dust, and in the distance, five paladins could be seen galloping towards this direction in a neat line.
"Uncle Budd, they're coming, we're going to separate. Peggy didn't know when she put on the veil again, leaving only a pair of eyes, a little red, just like the one Du Lei saw for the first time in the carriage.
"Peggy, I, when can we meet again?" Du Lei asked with some sadness, the girl who made his heart flutter and wanted to protect was about to leave, and he couldn't even meet her!
"Du Lei, I'll miss you, we're good friends, aren't we. Peggy stood behind Du Lei, suddenly hugged his waist, put her face against his back and said.
The paladins were about to come, Du Lei gently pulled Peggy's hand away, and took out an emerald green necklace from the space ring, which was the thing left by the moon shadow in the space ring, and put it on her neck, under the sunlight, the emerald green gem looked particularly good, especially with her fair skin.
"Are you okay with Peggy?" the paladins finally arrived, stopping neatly in front of the two, and Uncle Bard turned over and dismounted and asked nervously.
Peggy regained her previous calm, even a little indifferent eyes, "It's okay, I was trapped in a cave, thanks to this Mr. Du Lei, I was able to escape and ask Uncle Bud for help." ”
"Oh, it's you, kid, it's a magician, this matter is a favor that our Paladin's Temple owes you, and if you have any difficulties in the future, you can take this token to the Paladin's Hall anywhere to ask for help!" Bard took out a silver-white diamond-shaped token from the space bag on his waist, with a cross sword and a leaf-shaped shield engraved on it, and the words "Paladin's Palace Order" were engraved on the back.
With a burst of dust, Peggy was taken away by the paladins, and Du Lei's last image was that Peggy turned her head to stare at her eyes after getting on the horse, hoping that she would be successful, if her sister didn't have leukemia, she would probably be as old as her.
I'm afraid I've been walking for more than three hours, and I haven't even seen a single figure, Du Lei wonders if this is a no-man's land! Just when Du Lei was about to run away, finally a village appeared in front of him, it looked quite big, and there were more than 20 houses that could be seen, Du Lei hurriedly rushed towards the village, he didn't even know where he was now, but the map in his hand was only an overview of the periphery of the Eternal Forest, it seemed that he needed a new map.
Walking into the village, I felt that something was wrong, because the village seemed to be very quiet, and there was no sound at all!
"Who?" Du Lei felt that something seemed to be watching him in the bamboo basket next to him, stepped forward to check, and took the bamboo basket away, but saw that there was a little boy dressed like a beggar hidden inside, holding a rusty dagger in his hand, as if he was afraid of himself, pointing the dagger at himself.
"Little ghost, what's going on here, why isn't there even a person?" Du Lei asked in a gentle tone as much as possible.
"Don't, don't come! I'm a descendant of the great Tristan King, Shadow Burial Killer!" the little beggar seemed to think that his words would scare off the strangely dressed man in front of him.
"What is the King of Tristan?" Du Lei asked strangely, could it be a very awesome martial king?
The little ghost seemed to be enraged, and even abandoned his fear, and shouted loudly, "The King of Tristan is not a thing! he is the most powerful killer on the Eternal Continent, known as the most humble death messenger hidden under the light!"
"Oh, it seems to be a bit of a reflection, isn't he a humble knight who is one of the Seven Virtuous Knights of the Holy See? How did he become a killer?" Du Lei said to himself with some inexplicable wonder.
"Hmph! How could he become a knight of the Holy See? My ancestor was the one who killed the Pope! I warn you, don't beat my idea! Get out of here quickly," the little ghost suddenly remembered that he was not in a safe situation now, and threatened again.
"I can't seem to leave. Du Lei touched his stubble, got up and looked at the intersection in the village.
I saw three men with swords covered in blood appear at the intersection, "Boss, I heard you right, there are still people here!" said one of the shorter guys.
The person known as the boss is more than 1.8 meters tall, looks very strong, has a big bald head, has a scar on his face, looks fierce and vicious, and walks towards Du Lei!
"Hey, you hurry up, run, they're members of the Fierce Wolf Thieves Group, and that bald guy is a warrior!" Shadow Burial shouted to Du Lei with fear in his eyes.
