Chapter 366: The old man who blocked the way jumped out
Lin Qiu's words really asked Luna's heart. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
She was going through the darkest week of her life, and in less than seven days, she had managed to go from an obscure poor man to the most wanted man in the kingdom of Tarun. She had a good relationship with the bishop's mother-in-law, and the kind bishop saw that she was really pitiful, so he hid her in a secret stronghold in Shanlu Town to avoid the limelight.
Unexpectedly, she hid for less than two days before she was found by the evil Julius.
It's not because Julius is so intellectually brilliant and discerning, but because the captain of the royal guard, who seems to be unemployed, likes to drill into the forest when he has nothing to do, and when he embarks on a journey to defeat the king of the forest, he finds her very unfortunately.
Then, naturally, she was arrested by Julius without resistance.
"What crime have you committed?" Lin Qiu keenly discovered the point of the matter - it was definitely not a small crime to involve an unemployed captain in such a vigorous ambush.
"Ah......h
Luna seemed to remember some bad memory, and her expression suddenly became sad and embarrassed, "Maybe because I blew a hole in the inner city gate...... But believe me, that's not what I intended!"
Luna is a poor child, and the main reason why she joins the Cult of Sacred Birds is not much different from Turner's - free pizza and berry juice after prayer to solve the livelihood of many poor people. But as a poor little girl, she inherited the characteristics of most of the poor people in the royal capital.
As long as she is given gold coins, she will do all the rough work.
Deliver couriers, work as a proxy receptionist, and even take over for a few days when the bard at the bar falls ill. So one day, when Luna is wandering the street after breakfast, she meets a strangely dressed man. The man was dressed in a robe similar to that of the Divine Bird Sect, except that the color was gray, and his hunchbacked, wrinkled face was hideous and terrifying. With a horrible smile, the strange man handed over a large bag of gold coins and a package to Luna, saying that it was a gift from the Byron Empire to Empress Leah, and asked her to pass it on her behalf.
But the question is, how can she, a little girl from a poor family, be qualified to meet the empress?
So after negotiating with the doorman of the inner city for a long time, she gradually became impatient, and she stuffed the package into the hand of the strong guard, and said angrily: "Since you won't let me in, you can easily hand over this package to the Empress!"
However, her actions still fail to gain the trust of the guards, who believe that Luna is the kind of thief who finds an excuse to sneak into the inner city to steal. This happened when Empress Ria first ascended to the throne, when some unscrupulous adventurers lied about important information to report to Empress Ria, only to sneak in and steal many of the elite weapons in their arsenal. When the poor saw that the adventurers had succeeded, they followed suit.
"It must be something like a broken jar you picked up on the ground. β
In order to prove himself right, the strong man guard laughed and smashed the package towards the city gate. If this included a clatter, then his judgment was applied.
However, what followed was not a "click", but a "boom".
Luna admits that her eyes were popping out when she saw a gap in the inner city being blown out, but luckily the same eyeballs were also popping out of the guard, and if he hadn't stared at the billowing smoke for several minutes, Luna would probably have been caught by then.
Not me...... I didn't......
With Luna's years of experience in the royal capital, she felt that this pale excuse obviously couldn't convince the guards, so she immediately ran away. She felt that she couldn't even run as fast as she did that day.
"But I'm a good girl. Luna was aggrieved.
When her former friends steal or sell their flesh for gold, Luna doesn't choose to fall like them.
"But you blew up the inner city, turn yourself in. Lilith felt compelled to make the point - the girls who stole or sold their flesh didn't do as much damage as Luna.
"It doesn't matter, I can understand you. β
Lin Qiu covered his face.
Shortly after he arrived in the imperial capital, he also experienced an incident similar to the "deadly express". He knew the leader of the black list in the imperial capital, and he had to start with the package with the bomb: "It is true that there will be people who receive the express delivery with the bomb, and there is no need to blame themselves, this is a very common thing." β
It's weird to be common!
Lilith felt that the two living treasures had found the worst possible consensus. Luna, who was still immersed in guilt and self-blame, listened to Lin Qiu's comfort, and the expression on her face changed from gloomy to clear. However, Lin Qiu did not turn from gloomy to sunny, and Luna's explanation made him understand why she became the most wanted criminal in the Kingdom of Tarun - as long as a normal person would treat this as an attempted assassination of the Empress.
But this also involved another question that Lin Qiu couldn't figure outβwhat were these Chaos Sect followers doing to throw bombs into the inner city if they didn't track down Phoenix's traces? Could it be that the Chaos Sect's business has changed recently, and it has begun to implement some policies like 'Golua Ahukba'?
"That's right...... I heard you mention Master Doren, right?" Luna asked cautiously as she saw Lin Qiu lost her thoughts. She was very grateful to these two strangers for saving her from danger, she knew that if it weren't for Lin Qiu and Lilith, she would probably be escorted to prison by now, right?
In any case, the Kingdom Army will deal with her for the crime of assassinating the Empress.
Children from poor families tend to be delicate and sensitive, and Luna senses that as long as she follows the two people who saved her, the kingdom army will not be able to catch her. So she was anxious to show her worth so as not to be abandoned by them halfway: "I know the news about Lord Doron!"
"You can go to hell and ask him for the news about Doron. β
There was a loud laugh of old, gloomy owls.
The lantern in the hunchbacked old man's hand illuminated the way ahead, and with the help of the light of the oil lamp, Lin Qiu could barely see the ugly face hidden under the gray cloak, except for the cracked wrinkles, his entire face was deformed, as if he had been splashed with sulfuric acid. Luna's voice stops abruptly when she sees the comer, and she exclaims.
"That's him!"
Once you see this ugly face, you will never forget it: "He gave me that package!"
"Thank you for getting this troublesome little girl out of those troublesome kingdom soldiers for me...... Now, give her to me, and I'll promise to give you a good ...... ......"
