033: The Knight!
Feeling that I have encountered the legendary collusion between officials and businessmen and the common people?
Roshi is like a slow-thinking old man who only comes back to his senses at this time.
Although Allen has been working hard to improve the law and establish new rules over the years, it is only that the cancer of thousands of years is so easy to eliminate, and it is still not uncommon to use power for personal gain and power to oppress others.
However, judging from the fact that Justin did not come to the door to rob him, but made a detour to talk about the rules, the level of civilization in society has advanced a big step.
By this time, there were already quite a few townspeople around, and of course they knew what was going on, but there was not much they could do other than show sympathy and pity.
"Daddy, Daddy, what are they doing?" asked Christina, pulling the corner of her father's coat and shaking it around, curious
"They're playing games," said the father, frowning
"What game? is it fun? Can I play it?" said Christina
The father shook his head and said with a long sigh: "This is a game for adults and children, adults can have a lot of fun, while children have a hard time..."
Young Christina didn't understand the meaning of her father's words, but she could tell the difference between happy and sad, blinking her big eyes and silently not knowing what to think.
Seeing that Luo Xi didn't reply for a long time, there were more and more people coming around, this is not a glamorous thing after all, and several people have a little more pressure on them.
The three of them gestured to Justin's eyes, and Justin hurriedly walked up and said politely: "I'll tell you, Roshi, we agreed at the beginning, this house is just rented to you, right, you can't deny this, if you want to make trouble, it's meaningless." ”
After a pause, he said with a pleasant face: "That's it, I'm a good person to the end, I still have idle houses in other places, I'll let you live in them first, what do you think?"
Roshi was a little confused.
He originally thought that this Justin just wanted to take back the house, but suddenly said that he was going to arrange another place for him to live, what was going on?
In fact, what Roshi didn't know was that the reason why Justin suddenly became interested in this haunted house was mainly because of the group of bear children yesterday.
The group of bear children had stumbled into Roxi's material room, and saw the scraps left over from the experiments in the material room, that is, the gold, silver and jewelry, and told them all together in the process of explaining the whole thing to the adults, and it soon spread around the town.
And a long time ago, the town had a legend that the wizard Geraint had left behind a lot of treasures, and it was inevitable that Roshi, a homeless man, would suddenly have so many treasures.
Justin, who heard about this, naturally shouted regret, he didn't sleep well all night, and his hair turned gray, so he had the current scene.
Seeing that Roshi still didn't speak, Justin was anxious, his eyes were a little red, and he said cruelly: "Roxi, you can figure it out for me..."
"That's it!"
Roshi raised a hand and stopped Justin who was going to continue talking nonsense, no matter what the hell this fat man wanted to do, as long as it didn't affect him, he would go and play next to him.
It's just that his behavior is a little disgusting, and Roshi thinks about whether to leave a letter for Louis and let him deal with it, and then talk about it later.
Thinking about it like this, Roshi didn't bother to deal with these guys, and left with the big sword on his back, and there were constantly townspeople on the road to comfort him, and Roshi smiled in return.
Here, Justin's eyes scanned Roshi's body carefully, and when he saw that he didn't bring any packages or anything like that, he left in a bad mood, so he didn't stop him.
"My lords, I'm really tired of you today. Justin, who got his wish, said to the three companions with a red face: "Look, why don't you rest in the manor first, and I will send someone to deal with the matter later." ”
"Hehehe, no need. Mutter smiled smirkedly and said, "I've heard his story about this haunted house a long time ago, and I haven't had time to see it, and today happens to have this opportunity, Justin, you won't be going to show us around, right?"
None of the people present were stupid, Justin, a profiteer, suddenly became so interested in this haunted house, there must be something wrong, and on the way here, they asked about the situation and knew the whole story, how could they leave at this time.
Justin's smile stiffened, and he looked at the faces of the three of them and guessed that it was impossible to swallow eighty percent of this wealth alone.
After a few words on the table, the three of them walked into the big room and began to search.
The room was so large that the three of them couldn't search it all for a while, but they had patience, which was nothing compared to the wealth.
And when they found a small gem left by Roshi under a table in the materials room, their spirits were even more shocked, and they once again firmly believed that there was a treasure inside, and their enthusiasm suddenly became full.
Time passed bit by bit in their obsession with wealth, and in the blink of an eye it was afternoon, and the townspeople who had dispersed had gone home, and they could not do anything in the face of this naked bullying.
And when the sun was already slightly red and about to set west, this remote town ushered in a grand scene that it had never had.
"Da Da Da..."
The sound of horses' hooves came from afar, and even from a distance, there was a slight vibration on the ground.
When the curious townsfolk stepped out of the house, they saw hundreds of knights in bright armor approaching in two neat and orderly rows.
The knight on the horse was covered in cold iron armor, unsmiling, heroic and extraordinary, even from a distance, people could smell a breath of slaughter.
It was such an imposing procession, but a very luxurious carriage was firmly guarded in the middle, and a rider held a bright banner in his chest, waving in the wind.
"That's... Purple Gold Rose?" A townsman who was working in the city recognized the pattern on the knight's banner and took a deep breath: "Oh my God, what kind of big man would come to our Rogue Town!"
The townsman's exclamation immediately caused an uproar, and the townspeople, who had never seen anything big, stopped cooking and walked out of the house.
Then they saw the pair head south until they came to the door of the town's haunted house, where the trained riders pulled the reins at the same time, and the convoy came to a halt in unison.
At this time, the three people who were busy in the house had already heard the movement outside the house, and after seeing the convoy outside the door through the window, their faces were already white.
As a high-ranking person, they were more knowledgeable than ordinary townspeople, and they recognized it at a glance as the banner of the Purple Gold Rose Elder's Pavilion.
With doubts in their stomachs, the three of them rushed out of the house without stopping, and knelt on the ground in silence before the carriage stopped.
"Squeak!"
The door of the carriage was opened by a guard, and a middle-aged man in his forties stepped out of the carriage, wearing a brown gorgeous gown and holding a golden cane, and his whole body naturally exuded the majesty of a superior person.
In this season, the temperature was already a little low near nightfall, and a guard hurriedly brought over a dark gray fur jacket.
"Lord Count..."
Before the words fell, the middle-aged man shook his head, and then he stopped his waist and said indifferently: "I'm not old yet." ”
Lord Earl!
This simple title once again made the hearts of the three kneeling tremble, in the purple gold rose, there is only one person who can use this title, and that is Count Louis!
In addition to being shocked, they were even more puzzled, how could a high-ranking man like Count Louis come to their country town inexplicably?
"Da Da Da!"
At this moment, another clatter sounded, and I saw a group of fast horses in the distance hurrying over, pure white war horses without the slightest variegation, immediately a young knight, wearing bright silver chain armor on his body, with a silver long sword with a unique shape at his waist, with a handsome face and outstanding temperament.
It's just that this is a single horse after all, and compared to the Purple Gold Rose team that has just caused a sensation, the momentum is weaker by more than one point.
It's just that to the shock of the townspeople, when the knight came, all the riders of the Purple Gold Rose team got down on one knee one after another.
The Purple Gold Rose, which is famous on the mainland, is so respectful in front of a young man, what is the origin of this young man?
Just when everyone was puzzled, the young knight had already come to the side of the convoy, turned over and dismounted vigorously, shook the sweat stains from his hair, and walked with a firm step.
At this time, the only person still standing in this field was the Count Louis of the purple and gold rose.
The young knight came to Louis, his eyes fell on him, and he did not speak, but looked at him quietly.
The two sides looked at each other like this for a moment, and in the end, what was surprising was that Louis, who was not humble or arrogant even in the face of some small kingdoms, took half a step back.
Holding his left chest with one hand, he humbly bowed his head:
"Lord Alan!"
