Section 632 Returning Home (36)
"Hogg, I've come so far, I can't see it!" Fez, sitting in the carriage, looked at Hogg, who kept looking back, and reminded him kindly, Fez also knew what Hogg was looking at, that is, his wife and children. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hello, the two little women have been arranged, but I always have a premonition when I go out this time, my life is short, hey!" Hogg's spirit was very low, not worried about his own life, but worried about his wife and children who had no one to take care of.
"It's okay, everything is with me, I will definitely take you back, I have already promised Xiao Xuan'er!" The main reason why Hogg carried a soul detector was not used on this trip, and the use of the teleportation array may damage the delicate soul detector, so the two still chose the carriage.
There are not many people to see off this time, Hogg has even fewer friends, only his wife and children Yama and Xiao Xuan'er, and the rest are all here to see off Fez, Lori and Qi'er don't talk about it, Titan will not be left behind with Qi'er, I didn't expect Rafite to come to see him off, and Bruce and Murphy sent Fez on behalf of Hamilton to send Fez's trip, and the two were direct, so they were on the road a few days later than Fes.
But Feth also knows that his burden is much smaller than Hogg's, Lori doesn't need to say much to learn magic from Simon, as for Qi'er and Tetan, they were also appreciated by Simon because of that battle, and introduced to a big boxer to learn boxing, as for what it is called, Fes has forgotten, anyway, there is no need for Fes to worry about anything.
"Fez, promise me something!" Suddenly Hogg turned to look at Fez, as if he had something important to ask Fez.
"Say it! As long as I can do it, I won't refuse!" "Feth and Hogg don't spend much time together, but they know that Hogg is kind-hearted, but Hogg's character is not suitable for living in this bustling and intriguing city, so Hogg doesn't have many friends until now, so Feth still treats this innocent Hogg as an older friend.
"If you encounter any danger and can't save me, then give up on me and leave me alone!" Although Hogg doesn't know how strong Fess is, he is at least stronger than his own half-technical soldier, so if he encounters danger, it may be much safer to escape alone.
"I won't let this happen, I promised, we'll all go home safely!" Fez's voice was not high, but unusually firm.
"Promise me, if something happens to me, don't blame yourself, don't avenge me, go back and tell Yama, let her tell Xiao Xuan'er that I went to a very distant place, and I'll be back when she grows up!" Hogg didn't want to believe his inexplicable sixth sense, but this sixth sense also allowed him to get out of many unsolved cases and save his life, but this was the first time Hogg didn't want to believe his sixth sense.
"Sometimes knowing the future is worse than not knowing, at least not knowing that you will die, but you don't know how to avoid it!" Hogg said with great emotion, after all, it was a matter of life and death.
"Maybe! I won't pursue the ethereal future, I'll cling to the present!" Fez's has also learned a lot, but he has no touch on time magic, which is a field that Fez's is unwilling to accept, Fess would rather face an unknown death than look at a known death and be powerless, which Fes and Hogg think the same way.
"Well, it's happiness to enjoy what is in front of you, this time I go back, I'm going to take a month's leave, I'm going to accompany Yama and Xuan'er, I must go back!" With Fez's encouragement, Hogg's self-confidence returned to his body, and he no longer paid attention to the empty premonition, after all, no matter what he faced, Hogg would not give up, and he was not willing to give up.
"Well, I'll take over your work this time, so I'll be with my family with peace of mind!" Fez promised to fulfill Hogg's little wish.
"By the way, where is your home in Tehran?" Hogg is still very familiar with the Magic Empire, Tehran is a large province near the northwest of the empire, the plain terrain, and one of the main food producing areas of the empire, with a large population and strong people, and it is also one of the main sources of the imperial army.
"Actually, I don't know where my home is? I'm an orphan, I've been raised in an orphanage in Hamar for as long as I can remember, and I only have one younger brother, and it was the headmaster who brought us up, and I just want to see the headmaster this time, and when I go back, I'm going to get my brothers and sisters back, after all, they're all my younger brothers!"
"Well, Hamal is a small town in western Tehran, close to the mammoth next door, and most of Hamar's orphanage is the descendants of soldiers who died in battle by the Imperial army, maybe your parents are also heroes of the Empire!" Hogg was encouraging Fez, but it was long gone for Fez, and it was nothing at all, and he didn't need any encouragement.
"Yes, the principal said that my parents were his comrades-in-arms, but the principal didn't tell me what their names were, and where they died in battle, only told me to take good care of my younger brothers!"
"Well, they don't tell you, naturally they have their thoughts, maybe when the time comes, you will know!" Hogg certainly knows a lot of the inside story of the Empire, maybe Fez's parents didn't die on the battlefield, Hogg didn't want to talk nonsense.
"It's okay, I'm not going to be cranky, what I want to do most now is to get all my brothers back!" Fez also knows about the darkness of the empire, but Fez doesn't pay much attention to these so-called hatreds, at least not until Fez finds his brothers and sisters.
"I don't have many friends, but as long as you provide their basic information, I can still provide you with some help!" Hogg didn't have many friends in the imperial capital, but he still knew a lot of acquaintances in the army, after all, they were all former comrades-in-arms.
"Thanks, let's go back and talk about it!" Fez didn't think about these things now, and the matter at hand had to be dealt with.
......
"Old immortal, when will the money owed to us be paid?" several thugs in strange costumes threatened an old man with gray hair with clubs and daggers in their hands.
"Don't be wordy, it's today, if you don't pay it back, I'll take your orphanage away!" The other thug also knew that the old man with a sad face had no money to pay them back, and the purpose of their loan sharking was not to care about the few small dollars, but for another purpose.
"How can this be done? You took away the orphanage, what about the children inside?" The old man was wearing the washed white magic robe, and it could be seen from some positions that the original color of the magic robe was orange, that is, the level of five to six levels, and it was still easy to deal with these little gangsters, but the old man was ashamed because he owed money first, and he was still angry, and now he was just blocking the door to prevent these five little gangsters from entering.
And there were not many residents who watched the excitement, most of the residents just looked up slightly, and then turned around, as if nothing had happened, it seemed that what these people had done was not once or twice, and no one cared at all, or could not take care of it.
"Then what do we do, the note clearly says, a thousand gold coins, one cent of interest per month, and now you can't afford it, then use the orphanage to pay off the debt, do you want to repay the debt?" An older thug carried one arm behind his back, and in the other hand he held an IOU, his head kept high, and he didn't look at the old man.
"Although we can't afford to pay the principal, we pay back the interest every month, doesn't it mean that we can only accept the orphanage after it is doubled?" The aggressiveness of the gangsters finally forced another old man in the orphanage out, although it was inevitable to borrow usury at the beginning, but they had already discussed it, the orphanage has a subsidy every month, plus the principal's magic allowance, it can be repaid in about a year or two, but I don't know why, during this period of time, the empire's subsidy is getting less and less, and it can only pay back the interest, but it will not become a doubling situation.
"Your money is just the interest at the beginning, and now that the price of goods has risen, isn't the interest long? Now the principal and interest add up to 1,999 gold coins, give you a gold coin, and give me to get out of the house immediately, otherwise we will be welcome!" The purpose of the little gangsters is this orphanage, whether they have money or not, all they want is the orphanage.
"You are taking it by force, don't you have a law in the empire?" The old man who had just come out was a warrior when he was young, and he had a hot temper, and when he was stimulated by the other party, he immediately raised his fist and rushed towards the other party.
"Rig, don't!" The old headmaster has been restrained, one of the reasons is that the other party is holding an IOU, but the most important thing is the person behind the other party, everyone in the town knows that the little gangster is the younger brother of the mayor's lover, and the mediocre mayor has handed over everything to his lover to deal with, if he beats his younger brother, I'm afraid this matter will not be easy to solve, but the old headmaster's words seem to be a little late.
The most important thing is that a few gangsters are obviously preparing to touch porcelain, and the two of them pulled Lao Rig's wrist, but they didn't make a difference, allowing Rig's thin body to hit the boss's body, in fact, he didn't have any strength at all, but the boss's body seemed to be hit by a huge impact and was immediately knocked away.
"Bastard!" Rig didn't feel any impact at all, and knew the other party's conspiracy, but the hot-tempered Rig couldn't calm down at all, and he wanted to beat him hard, but his hands were trapped and he couldn't attack at all.
"Old man, we politely came over to collect debts, if you don't pay it back, you dare to be an adult, now you are given two choices, one is that all of you leave, and I treat nothing as if nothing happened, or I will take the IOU and go to see the official with this hot old man!" The leader of the gangsters still has some brains, knowing that he can't take away the orphanage with his own words, even if he has his sister's favoritism, it is a little difficult, and now he is dealing with beating people, then the nature of the matter has changed, and he can completely destroy them according to this point.
"Old man, leave me alone, I'm desperate with them, without the orphanage, how can the fifteen children in it live?" Originally, Rig's task was to prevent the children inside from coming out, but now Rig was arrested, and the fifteen orphans stuck out their heads one by one.
"Don't come out, children!" the old headmaster's words did not seem to have any effect, and fifteen children ran out one by one, each with a weapon in his hand, a burning stick.
"Headmaster, we have opened up, we also want to protect our home!" The child who took the lead looked to be twelve or thirteen years old, but the expression on his face was very firm, if the other party dared to step forward, these children would definitely dare to do it.
"Hehe, then take them all and take them back. The gangster leader looked at these children, and the wicked smile on the corner of his mouth betrayed the other party's current thoughts, obviously preparing to take a few more chips to threaten the old man.
"Who dares to do it?" (To be continued.) )
