By the dim light of the fire, everyone recognized that this was the man who delivered the food. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The townsfolk raised their glasses in respect.

"Thank you. Mormont was not polite, and took a big sip from his glass.

Leon smiled in response, didn't say much, and returned to his seat.

"I'm Mormont Takanov. Mormont was a little surprised to see Leon leave, for it is common for people who do such things to proclaim their names, or at least to say a few more words, so he came over with a glass of wine to greet him.

"Monsieur Mormont, I am Lyon. "Leon has a good opinion of this person, although he is not young anymore, he is physically strong and a person with martial arts. At present, he can't reveal his identity, so he has to omit his surname, because the surname of the royal family is extremely rare, and there happens to be a prince's domain nearby.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Leon. "It was rude for Mormont to stand there without further action, and to sit down without being invited.

Leon was a bit of a problem, and it wasn't appropriate to invite him to sit down, but it wasn't appropriate to let him go.

"You may be seated. After a short period of consideration, Leon invited him to join him, because there was something he could ask him about.

The coachmen sat across from the prince, and now when they heard the prince's words, they took the initiative to give up a place.

"Mr. Leon isn't a subordinate of the lord, is he?" Mormont was intrigued by his identity, what kind of person would come here to deliver food.

"Why do you say that?" Leon wanted to hear his analysis.

"There are not many subordinates who have been reused by the lord, I have met them a few times, but you are very fresh, this is the first; according to the lord's style of acting, it is not possible for him to send food, this is the second; I found that you are from the north, and this direction has nothing to do with the lord, this is the third. Mormond's reason is simple, three short words have narrowed Lyon's identity a lot.

"Haha, Monsieur Mormont's observation is very delicate. Leon thinks that this person is not simple, if it is an ordinary old man, where would he pay attention to these things.

"It's just a little speculation, Mr. Lyon has not revealed his identity today, and it seems that he does not intend to make a public announcement, so I dare not imagine too much. Mormont ended the topic appropriately, and it was not a good habit to listen to other people's privacy privately.

He didn't say it, but he already had an answer in his heart, from the north, there was only one place in Ravenwood, and their starting point should be there. As for Leon's identity, he was not sure, a merchant, a rich man, or a nobleman?

"I can't tell you about it, but I want to ask you something. Leon saw that he was a smart man and had saved him a lot of trouble, so it was undoubtedly a good choice to ask him about the situation.

"Excuse me. "Mormont has no opinion.

"There are rumors that there are robbers nearby, I wonder if it's true?" Lyon may encounter robbers when exploring the road, this is not a problem, the problem is that there will be robbers to make trouble in the future to open up the land route, and the loss at that time is not half a star.

"Well, there is. Mormont replied very seriously.

There is a large wasteland in the west of Guding Town, and to the west of the wasteland is the mountain forest, more than ten years ago, a group of robbers gathered in the mountain forest, the number of people at the beginning was not large, and the back slowly grew, and now it is a hidden danger.

"Then why didn't the lord send someone to encircle and suppress it?" Leon was a little worried, it was always a matter of concern if the robbers were not eradicated.

"The lord is not worried at all. Mormont shook his head, there was no need to encircle and suppress.

The lord has three small towns, only the one he himself is stationed in has developed, and the other two are basically poor and remote, such places that even robbers look down on.

So far, the robbers have not been seen since they came to Guding Town to find nothing, and they have targeted several cities in the south, specializing in robbing passing merchants.

"It's ridiculous. Leon sighed, and Ravenwood before him was the same, a place that even robbers couldn't look at.

If the robbers don't come, it doesn't mean that the peace will be kept forever, and once they develop, the robbers will definitely attack again.

According to the momentum of Ravenwood's development, Leon guessed that the bandits had already had some rumors, and they would definitely become one of their targets in the future, and if they kept the water transportation unblocked, they had no chance of succeeding, but when the land route was developed, the problem would arise.

"Is Mr. Lyon worried about the robbers?" Mormont understood from the conversation. If this grain is transported to the south with a swagger, it may be robbed, so it is better to distribute it to the townspeople as a good deed.

"Not yet. Leon doesn't think so at the moment, and they will only be a problem if they have to do so, so it's important to figure out the situation first: "What is the strength of this gang of robbers?"

"It is said that there are more than 100 people, most of them are some scoundrels and ruffians who have no real talent and strength, and there are about 30 of them who go out all year round. Mormont thought for a moment, these were all heard from other people's mouths, and it was up to him to believe him or not.

"With such a few people, haven't those lords thought of uniting to deal with it?" Leon shook his head, although the northwest region is a backward place, but each big lord has at least hundreds of troops under his command, one lord does not dare to waste troops and financial resources, and several lords together can't exterminate the bandits.

"They tried, but they canceled it for some reason. Mormont was more aware of the matter.

A few years ago, several lords began to discuss dealing with robbers, and everyone sat together to discuss, and it went well at first, but later there were conflicts over the funds.

In the area of the bandits' activities, some towns were attacked more often, while others were once in a while, and everyone was divided.

Some people think that if everyone joins forces to suppress bandits, then the cost of troops should be shared equally.

In addition, some people think that it should be regulated according to the intensity of the robbers' activities, and that the more they are attacked, the more they should pay.

Everyone was very unhappy because of this, and in the end, the joint suppression of bandits never happened again.

"They're also looking too short. When Leon heard this reason, he immediately felt that it was a pity that a self-interested alliance was broken in this way, and only those robbers benefited.

"Yes, the bandits' power is slowly expanding, and they have suffered more and more losses over the years. Mormont sighed.

For some reason, Leon felt that Mormont had a strong personal feeling when he said this, as if he had experienced it himself.

The reason for this, Leon is not going to ask, he will go to explore the road tomorrow, and then make the next step when he returns.
