Chapter 298: Civil Strife (7)
The named viper man couldn't pretend to be dumb anymore, so he could only stubbornly speak: "Could that person be a rescuer from Kermos?"
"Probably not. The short-haired woman retorted, "To put it mildly, after a year of exploitation by us, the valuable things that Kermos can leave now are probably not as much as the money that a small shop in the town made in a month before we came, how can such a small thing be able to invite someone more powerful than the fourth brother to help? Although the current guard commander is from a poor background, he is not stupid, can't he think of cooperating with that person to attack our stockade?"
"It's not, it's not, TMD hates this kind of guessing game the most!" the bearded man complained.
Because of the bad breath, even the little minions who were still running around not far away were not pleasing to the eyes: "Are you all in your heads, didn't you see that guy has run away, what are you still tossing around there?"
The effect was immediate, and the chaotic crowd really stopped.
When he looked closely, the bearded man was even more angry.
It turned out that because this group of little minions did not train enough, they began to run blindly once they got messy, resulting in many people who had not even touched Leach's face but suffered a lot of injuries under the pushing, and at a glance, there were not a few people with blue noses and swollen faces, and there were also a few with broken arms and lame legs.
"What a bunch of rice buckets!" The short-haired woman was also trembling with anger, "All the materials in the village have been wasted by them like this, if they are still a little useful now, the old lady really wants to ignore their life and death, let them fend for themselves!"
Speaking of this, the bearded man seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly asked, "By the way, Fifth Sister, the medicine in the village is still enough, right?"
"Enough!" the short-haired woman snorted, "Not only is it enough, but it is also very redundant, but the old lady is just not in a good mood, those who have broken arms and legs can take some medicine to treat their injuries, as for those who are only skin injuries, let them suffer a little, and let them have a long memory!"
All the daily necessities in the village are in charge of the short-haired woman, which even the bearded man has no right to command, and even sometimes if he wants something, he has to ask for something, so he can only smile bitterly and say that she is happy.
The discussion was fruitless, and the five of them could only temporarily give up the discussion of Leach's true identity, anyway, their eldest sister was about to come over, and they were used to finding their eldest sister to solve such a brain-consuming matter.
......
Escaping from the cottage, Leach rushed back to Kelmos as fast as he could.
Originally, Leach thought that it would take a lot of time for the people in the cottage to ask for help from Kelmos, and Howard deliberately delayed in this matter, although he was really anxious to see that the client could arrive at Kelmos at any time, and he did not expect that he would be able to recover the lost property in a short time.
However, after suddenly hearing the rebellious conversation in the cottage, Leach knew that he could not drag it out any longer. The civil strife in the cottage may break out at any time, and if he continues to harass him so unhurriedly, I am afraid that he will not be able to wait for the so-called "mastermind behind the scenes" to appear when the civil strife is over, let alone want to take advantage of the God-given opportunity of the civil strife to annihilate the "rebels" of Kelmos in one fell swoop and recover the entrusted items.
However, the exact time of the civil unrest in the cottage requested by Howard has not yet been known, so Leach can only make another move.
What is Howard's greatest weakness? The answer is undoubtedly Qinguo.
Since Howard is still hesitating whether to send troops to attack the cottage, then he might as well lie to him that Qinguo was taken away by the people of the cottage. I believe that when the time comes, he will not have the leisure to question why Qin Guo stayed well in the town, but he was suddenly robbed to the cottage.
However, although this method is the most effective, there is also the greatest unstable factor, that is, Qin Guo's whereabouts.
The plan will only succeed if Howard confirms that Qinguo is no longer in Kelmos and that he can't find her.
It's not that Leach didn't want to pretend to be a copycat to kidnap Qinguo, but firstly, they were not familiar with the life of Kelmos, and there was no completely reliable place to hide in the town, and secondly, even if he hid Qinguo on the Enchantress, Qinguo was not a dead thing, wouldn't she ask for help? Like the place where the Enchantress is parked, many people pass by every day, once Qinguo succeeds in asking for help, the plan falls short, and the five of them may even be arrested as prisoners by Howard, who is furious after learning the truth, and if their true identities are revealed, then the fun will be great.
However, since it has been determined that Qin Guo is behind the "rebels", it is much easier to do, it is nothing more than to put more pressure on the copycats.
With today's experience, I believe that the people in the cottage have realized that the monsters who go to them to find trouble are particularly difficult to deal with. Just one "monster" should be too much for them to deal with, so what if it's two, or even three?
That's right, Leach's solution is to have Saya and Tali go to the cottage with him to put on makeup and make trouble. Anyway, with the help of the "Iron Armor", even if the three of them don't carry weapons, they won't be hurt, and when the time comes, just pay attention to the duration of the steel potion and don't show their stuffing in front of people.
In the next three days, the whole cottage has been in a state of chickens and dogs.
With two more helpers all of a sudden, Leach has more harassment plans to hatch.
The three of them took turns to fight, one went to the cottage to harass them, and the other two rested in the cave. Since Leach had already figured out that several of the leaders of the cottage were most likely powerful, the plan of the three was to cause as much damage as possible without seeing the five of them, and once the five leaders appeared, they would flee immediately.
The three of them took turns to go out, striving to make the entire cottage live in peace 24 hours a day, and resolutely not giving the people of the cottage a chance to rest.
After a day of bombardment, the five leaders were naturally unwilling to be beaten so passively, so they laid traps again, trying to catch the "monster".
And at this time, the three of Leach went together.
It is conceivable that after learning that there is more than one "monster", coupled with the fact that he has not slept well all day, some of the little minions who were already afraid completely collapsed, and the encirclement was so self-defeating.
