It's freezing and the cold snap is raging!
The water in the cowhide kettle is frozen hard, and it can be used as a murder weapon.
The magician said that as ordinary people, the coachman and servant were too poor in cold resistance, and they wanted to wrap their whole heads, and they had only been out for a few days, and their faces were red and swollen from the cold, and their fingers were as thick as turnips.
Seeing this scene, Downton's resentment towards those coachmen was also a little less, this kind of ghost weather travel is just playing with life, and it is indeed unreasonable not to increase wages, but the coachman leader harms the master's family, which is too black-hearted, after all, Alice is already very kind-hearted.
Downton rode the scorching nightmares, followed the group, and from time to time ran out for a walk, this was his first time out of the country, so he felt new to everything.
Hu Tao rode into the pine forest on an empty ray, obviously going hunting, but Downton was not worried, with her strength, even in the face of a dragon, she could calmly escape.
"I didn't see it, Master Romeo is still a noble child!"
The eldest lady was surprised, Alice is also a family that has been around for a hundred years, she has been taught by nobles since she was a child, and she naturally has a vicious eye, although Downton's etiquette is no problem, but it is obviously acquired, and there is no such family background.
"You can't run out without even a guard, and you're not afraid of being robbed!"
Conte's eyes were fixed on Downton's mount, the greed could not be suppressed, this was a pure-blooded hellish nightmare, the four hooves of the warhorse burned with green flames, and wherever he stepped on, he left a cluster of burning flames. It looks gorgeous and dreamy.
Of course, Downton himself is handsome enough, even on a cold winter day, he is still wearing a light hunting suit, broad shoulders and narrow waist, and slender limbs. The curves of his body are perfectly displayed, like an elegant and toned cheetah, full of strength and beauty.
Conte turned his head, and sure enough, he saw that the eldest lady he longed for was looking at Downton, his eyes were full of appreciation and admiration, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised, if Downton launched a pursuit offensive, Alice would definitely not be reserved for too long.
"Damn it!"
Conte cursed under his breath and tightened his grip on the reins. He usually boasts that he is a handsome man, but compared to Downton, he is a scum.
"Miss, hard work!"
Downton passed by, greeted with a smile, in the past half a day, he saw a lot of things, Alice is a hard-working, hard-working girl, back and forth. I've been running non-stop, and my face is full of exhaustion. But I never complained.
This kind of girl with a strong personality is what Downton admires the most.
"Master Romeo is overrated!"
Alice didn't know that this was Downton's pseudonym, but after hearing that the maid was called Juliet, she teased it, after all, Romeo and Juliet's opera has spread to most of the Western Continent with the superb performance of the Toffee Opera Company, and has become a classic play.
"Take a sip. It can restore the spirit!"
Downton pulled out the empty rock beer can and handed it to Alice.
"Thank you!"
A handsome and gentle gentleman always makes people wary, but as soon as Alice stretched out her hand, she was crushed by a horsewhip.
"Being away from home. Be careful, who knows what this guy's purpose is?"
Conte could have been tactful, but he was ruthless and showed off, coupled with his youth and vigor, and he was not patient enough, so he was not polite.
"Thank you!"
If it had been left in the past, Alice would have argued for Downton, but now she had to rely on Conte to protect the caravan, so after opening her mouth, she finally didn't say anything, withdrew her hand, and smiled apologetically at Downton.
Seeing the eldest lady's appearance, Conte looked like he had won a battle, and proudly raised his chin towards Downton, revealing a haughty, disdainful smile.
Downton chuckled, unscrewed the lid, poured a sip of victory wine, clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and sped away, Conte's trash fish, he didn't even have a little vindictiveness.
"It smells so good!"
One of the guards behind Conte sniffled, sniffing greedily at the smell of wine in the air, as an alcoholic, he knew that this pot of fine wine would definitely not cost more than ten thousand gold coins.
The drunkard still guessed less, that cup would cost tens of thousands of gold, of course, money could not buy it, because it was a well-brewed tribute.
At noon, the caravan stopped to rest and eat, but as soon as the bonfire was lit, there was a bang, a bang, and two fireworks, which were used for warning, rose into the sky and burst into a brilliant pattern.
"Enemy attack, prepare for battle!"
Conte, who had just been disarmed, immediately stood up, dropped the bread in his hand, turned on his horse, and beckoned the guards to assemble.
"This guy is quite capable!"
Juliet pouted, "It's just that my heart is too bad." ”
"Boss, it's a hill native, there are nearly a thousand people!"
The two scouts rushed back with whips, and the buttocks of the horses were fleshy and bloody.
Airplanes!
Like boiling water poured into an ant's nest, the whole convoy stood up, and the ordinary people were even more panicked, and all eyes were on Conte.
Poof!
There were still places on the avenue where it was still icy, and one of the scouts ran too fast, and the iron nails and horseshoes of the war horses stepped on it, and the other did not stand still and fell to the ground.
The scout jumped on the horse, moving quickly, but his right foot was still suppressed, and he screamed in pain.
"Don't mess up, form a formation, and raise the Duke of Downton's battle flag!"
Conte was also afraid, but he was able to restrain this tension, and he was still commanding in an orderly manner, "Go to two people, bring him back!"
Being able to warn in advance and form a formation, the table of this escort team is already very good, and the miscellaneous bandit group will basically retreat when they see this kind of lineup, after all, they are not stupid, unless they are hungry, they will definitely not take too much risk.
"Calm down! Calm down!"
Alice jumped out of the carriage, holding the staff, and kept muttering, hypnotizing herself, but the fingers holding the staff still violently~ revealed her nervousness.
There's no way not to be afraid, let alone robbers breaking the merchant group. Even if one vote dies, the pension can make her family worse.
Of course, if Alice had been ruthless and didn't take human life seriously, she would have been able to bear this kind of loss.
"If there's anything you need help with, just ask!"
Downton arrived. The girl's appearance made him unbearable.
"Thank you...... Thank you!"
Worried, Alice actually bit her tongue.
"Don't be afraid, the enemy is a hill native, and he should be able to negotiate!"
Conte is steady, and what he is most afraid of now is the spread of panic and an avalanche-like rout, otherwise the robbers will fight if they don't want to fight when they see this kind of appearance.
Although Conte worked hard. But panic is not a matter of control.
Downton saw that the shape was wrong, and hurriedly waved his hand to spread a sober aura.
When the white aura burst out of Downton's hand and fell on everyone, a warm and peaceful aura immediately spread in their bodies, and they unconsciously quieted down, as if they were in their mother's arms.
"Templars?"
The servants exclaimed, their expressions filled with joy. Even the guards were relieved by the surprise, one more paladin. The combat effectiveness of the entire regiment has been at least doubled.
Soon, the scattered eight scouts all retreated, and within a few minutes, an ogre emerged from the pine forests on both sides of the avenue.
These guys all have the smell of wild hills, and in the winter, they only wear a simple leather skirt. Some didn't even cover it up, and went straight bare, revealing two thighs covered with black hair.
Years of hard life have left their skin dead and dirty, plus the mud and stains that haven't been washed for years. It's like a layer of armor.
Some of the servants who followed the caravan for the first time were so frightened that their legs trembled and they urinated directly, there was no way, these natives were really terrible, with green faces and fangs, carrying maces more than a person high, and skull ornaments, like demons coming out of hell.
Knock!
Huge footsteps rang out, and in the blink of an eye, a cavalry consisting of dozens of natives appeared on the avenue, blocking the way.
Conte's face darkened suddenly, these cavalrymen were under the crotch of the earth sloth, this is an elite-level magical beast, and those who can tame them are all powerful natives.
The natives were simple-minded, with well-developed limbs, without any nonsense, and the leader of the regiment held the mace in his right hand and swung it forward, and the natives who had been parked around immediately screamed and attacked.
"Wait a minute, we have Lord Downton's battle flag, a pass issued by the Free Trade Zone, and a token from the Bloodhammer Chief!"
Conte roared, but the sound was drowned out by the roar of the natives charging.
"They must be stopped!"
If the natives were allowed to rush over, the merchant group would be absolutely doomed, so Downton scooped it with his right hand, and a fireball the size of a watermelon immediately formed, and he smashed it out.
The natives riding the sloths all turned to dodge, but they didn't expect the fireball to be so powerful that it exploded, enveloping a radius of fifty yards.
Rumble!
A flame was like a blooming flower, instantly rising into the sky, and when it dissipated, only a dozen or so natives remained, and the rest were all turned to ashes, and not even a single corpse remained.
This sudden arrival caused the charging natives to stop and stare at Downton vigilantly, as he grabbed another large fireball of that kind in his hand.
"Don't lose it!"
Alice hurried to stop it.
"Huh?"
Downton was puzzled.
"Wait for me to negotiate!"
Although she was afraid of the ugly-faced ogre, Lovely Lisi held on and took out the pass to negotiate.
Downton was not at ease and followed, and Conte was naturally not to be outdone.
"It's the Frankfurt trade group, why didn't you say it earlier?"
The robber leader was very annoyed, clenched his fists, and crushed the pass, but the next second, he spread his hands in fear, and actually carefully smoothed the parchment.
"You're rushing too fast!"
Although she complained in her heart, Lovely Lisi didn't dare to speak, she took out a bag of gold coins that had been prepared a long time ago, "Here are two hundred gold coins, please smile!"
"No need, let's go!"
The bandit leader looked at the bag of gold coins with greedy eyes, but he didn't dare to ask for it, put his finger in his mouth, and whistled loudly.
