readx;? At this time, the old man put down the kettle, and his voice was still hoarse, "Look at your appearance, you are from the Langnu Mountains." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
Mien smiled and nodded, "Have you been there before?"
The old man sneered, "When I was your age, I had never been to this continent, if you don't want to get into trouble, I advise you to finish drinking this glass of water and leave here as soon as the wind stops." ā
Got in trouble?
Hilda slapped her dagger on the table, and her face looked like you were looking at us with a small look, "Don't be afraid, uncle, if you dare to find trouble, I will let him taste great." ā
As a ranger who often wanders in the gray area, unruly is imprinted in Hilda's bones.
Licking blood from the knife all year round, Hilda has never been afraid of anyone!
At the beginning, I was confident that one person would deal with dozens of soldiers, and I could see the leopard in the tube.
But the old man didn't say anything.
Mien glanced at the female ranger and whispered, "Don't forget the purpose of our trip. ā
Naturally, Mistress is never afraid of trouble, but it's not his style of doing things.
Since leaving the north, Mien and the others have been on the road for ten days in a row, and now they are really tired.
I ate some of the dry food with the hot water, and the room fell silent except for the howl of the cold wind outside and the crackling of burning wood in the fireplace.
The little girl leaned against the wall and looked at Mien quietly, and the childish voice broke the atmosphere in the room, "Your eyes are so beautiful, like the golden sun." ā
With one hand on his head, Meen lay on the table and smiled, "What about your parents?"
"They're dead. ā
But the old man, who had been lying on the bed and pretending to sleep, suddenly said, "Mei, be quiet. ā
The little girl played with her fingers, lowered her head and said 'oh' and said no more.
He's dead?
Not just Mine, the other three all glanced at the little girl at this time.
Poor little girl.
At this moment, the old man who had just closed his eyes suddenly sat up from the bed, as if he had heard something, and his brows were furrowed!
"Why did they come at this time?"
I don't say anything for any reason, I just want to drive Mien and the others out!
"You're leaving! it's too late!"
As he spoke, the old man pushed and shoved them, trying to blast them out.
But before he could reach the door, there was the sound of horses running and humans shouting.
At this time, the old man's face changed, his voice was extremely hoarse, and his expression was gloomy, "It's too late, you guys go out of the back window, and I'll drag them." ā
From beginning to end, the old man did not explain anything.
But Hilda took out her crossbow and asked, "Uncle, who are the people out there?"
Now, the old man no longer hides it, "Horse bandits." ā
Glancing at Meen, a fine light flashed in his originally cloudy eyes, "Young man, if I were you, I would let this little girl put away her weapons, these horse bandits have an official background, and you outsiders can't fight them." ā
Mien watched all this with a cold eye from beginning to end, and could see that this old man was a seasoned wandering mercenary when he was young, and he could even tell at a glance that he was the one who could make decisions among the four.
A gang of horse bandits with an official background?
Mine is naturally not a messenger of justice, as long as he can spend money to solve it, then everything is easy to say.
Even though the wind was loud, several people could still hear the footsteps outside the door.
Bang!
A black hard-soled riding boot kicked hard against the old wooden door, and the cold wind with snowflakes kicked open with the door and poured into the otherwise warm room.
The little girl looked at the big man who walked into the room, hid in the corner, bit her lip and shrunk without saying a word.
People arrive before they make a sound.
"Old thing, have you got enough money?"
With a rough voice, a strong man with an axe and a thick leather coat walked in.
The old man stared at the strong man, gritted his teeth, took out three copper coins from his arms, and handed them to the strong man wearing a heavy leather coat and a smell of blood on his body.
"That's all I have now. ā
Seeing that it was three copper coins, the strong man slapped the old man's hand away.
"You're begging for food? You've been in debt for a month, and you've got two silver coins in total! If you can't pay it today, use your precious granddaughter to pay off the debt!"
George frowned slightly as he looked at all this, once as a lord, he had killed a lot of horse bandits.
Without saying anything, the two horse bandits behind the strong man smiled evilly and walked towards the little girl hiding in the corner.
The old man gritted his teeth and pulled out the long sword hidden under the table to block it in front of the two of them, "We said it last time! There are still ten days left before the debt will be repaid! You can't be untrustworthy like this!"
The strong man sneered, "You don't believe in your words, you old immortal still dare to teach me a lesson, give me a beating!"
The two horse bandits received the order, brandished their weapons, and rushed towards the old man with a sinister smile on their faces!
Hilda was about to stand up, but was held down by Mien.
Although Mien didn't want to get into trouble, it seemed that they must have to deal with these people now.
Although Mien's voice was not loud, it reached the ears of several people very clearly, "Stop, how much money do you need?" I paid for him, and it was paid to him. ā
The strong man stretched out his hand to signal the two subordinates to stop, turned to look at Meen, and smiled without smiling, "You should be outsiders, I have never seen you." ā
Mien didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and said lightly, "Say, how many do you want." ā
If you teach these people a lesson now, or even kill them, the old man said that these people have an official background.
Of course, this is refreshing for a while, and you can pat yourself on the ass and leave.
But for this old man and his granddaughter, a catastrophe must have come!
It's just that the strong man looked at Mien with interest at this time, "Stranger, looking at your fine skin and tender meat, you should be from a noble background, so let's give me a gold coin, and I'll leave immediately, how about it?"
Hilda reluctantly took out a gold coin from the money bag, threw it to the strong man, and snorted coldly, "You got the money, get out!"
If it weren't for Meen stopping him, let alone the gold coins!
Holding the gold coin in his hand, the strong man bit it with his teeth, stuffed it into his arms, and then stretched out his hand in front of Mine, "Give me a gold coin, and I'll let you go." ā
George's right hand had already touched the hilt of the sword at this time, and his face sank, "Didn't you already give it to you just now?"
The strong man laughed and looked at his two men, "Which of you just saw them give me gold coins? Haha! I didn't see it anyway!"
Talking nonsense with his eyes open is as simple as eating and drinking water for him!
Slightly proud in his heart, a few rich aristocrats are like letting Lao Tzu leave with this?
Didn't anyone teach these little sheep that they couldn't trust others easily?
It's like changing his face, and the face of the big strong man who was laughing just now suddenly became ruthless!
"Tell you, outsiders, now that I see you today, four of you, a poll tax of four gold coins, and if you can't pay it, you will want to go!" )
