Chapter 27: There is a Wisdom
"Send a bounty, the bounty is still so rich, is it still a dragon?"
Richard's mouth opened wide in astonishment, he had never heard of such a generous dragon. In his dictionary, or in the dictionary of all the intelligent races in the Roland world, in addition to being powerful, dragons belong to the words "small belly chicken intestines", "picking the door", "greedy for money", and "not pulling out a hair".
"Don't you want to put a copper in the dragon's fingernails." This phrase is popular not only in human, elven and dwarf societies, but also in kobolds, which are closest to dragons.
But what is the situation now?
"It's definitely a scam, absolutely! It's not that some dragons like to tempt others with their wealth and then turn their backs. Richard made a reasonable conjecture.
Pastor Angelo, who was across from him, shook his head.
"The three supreme wonders offered by Osis were all mortgaged in the hands of the devil and a detailed soul contract was signed. If it weren't, it wouldn't have attracted people like MONOCULUS Darcy. Although the evil dragon has nothing to do with them, the evil nature makes them complicit. ”
"I still thought it was a dream. In the team in front of Richard, a young man dressed as a thief with a row of daggers at his waist said with great feeling: "A dragon who is not greedy for money, this is really terrible!"
Everyone who heard this, including Richard, nodded silently.
Richard couldn't help but think of a certain historical novel he had read before, in which Comrade Liu Bang, who had always paid attention to wine and wealth, entered Xianyang, and actually wrote three chapters of the law, behaving like a humble gentleman. Others said that he was well-behaved, but Fan Zeng told Xiang Yu that this move showed that he Liu Bang had great intentions.
At this moment, the dragon named Osis gave him a feeling of "great picture".
This thing is too ambitious, isn't it, as a dragon, he actually knows how to sacrifice and struggle, and this is not for others to live?Richard thought stunned.
The unknown is the most frightening thing.
Then, Richard glanced at Xiong Da who was guarding the crowd with disgust.
The bear, disguised as a mastiff, was lying lazily on the ground, sticking out its long tongue and panting, as if to say to others, "I'm already a waste dog."
Look at your little bit of interest. Richard secretly gave it a middle finger.
At this time, Audrey on the side took over the topic.
"When it comes to MONOCULUS Darcy, all I can say is that he is really ruthless. At that time, he pretended to hold a sacrifice here, and actually took out two children, ready to cut their stomachs with a knife and take their hearts as sacrifices. You see that some of these children have stomach wounds, they are his masterpieces! Alas, the screams of these children at that time still linger in my ears today. Her Royal Highness couldn't bear to say any more.
"In order to get these three strange things, he is really unscrupulous. insisted on completing the contract and re-arresting these rescued innocent children, his heart was as vicious as that of Osis. Audrey was indignant, "Oh he has the same eyes as me!"
Richard glanced at her in surprise.
It was the first time he had discovered that this unruly ancient princess was so full of a sense of justice.
"The sword can be used to kill, and it can be used to save people. At the end of the day, it depends on who holds it. The old man on the other side was kind and comforting.
His beard and hair are all white, and at the same time, he is dressed in a white robe, and he does have the style of a loyal elder.
"There are many people with magic eyes, and there is no shortage of villains like him who have fallen into darkness with bad intentions, and there are also many kind children like you. ”
Pastor Angelo paints the flame emblem on his chest.
"May the Light bless you. ”
The others also began to condemn Darcy for the evil deeds of this villain.
"I really didn't know how he had such a mind?"
"Wicked people are so shameless. ”
"It's a good thing he died, otherwise I don't know how many people would have suffered. ”
......
The three barbarian warriors who had been on Richard's attention also slapped their chests at this moment.
One of the most burly of them made a bold statement in public.
"I, Able, swear to Mother Earth! never let these wicked bastards defile our land, expel them from here, and sacrifice their blood to the innocent beings they have harmed!"
This tall barbarian speaks sonorously and powerfully, and his mouth has the feeling of a golden iron horse.
After talking to them, Richard learned the purpose of the three of them.
The three were named Abel and Aldrich, and the barbarians of Ben had left the tribe in search of him, the appointed Earl of Sunset. They intend to rally around him and rebel against the tyranny of the dragon Ossi.
At this moment, Richard looked at Abel with appreciation, and his mind was full of chaotic plans.
But the barbarian who was staring at him felt a sense of awkwardness at a loss.
A simple barbarian warrior, he has never been looked at so sensually by another man.
Not long after, the female knight who stayed behind the old priest interjected again, and she said to Richard with disgust, "You actually said that we had a conflict just now, and we were enemies at that time, and I wanted this guy to pick up his skin and cramp! It wasn't until I looked at the two children that they were drenched in blood, and I finally couldn't help ......"
The female knight obviously didn't want to recall such a terrible experience, and she stopped talking.
"His sins are hard to write!" Audrey also looked at Richard with a questioning face, "We really didn't expect him to be so unscrupulous in our failures this time. ”
Then, she said categorically, "Sure enough, to deal with such a wicked villain, you have to be ten times more evil than them, otherwise you will inevitably be calculated by them." ”
Pastor Angelo shook his head, and he said to Audrey righteously, "Child, please remember that when you stare into the abyss, the abyss is also watching you!"
But seeing that Audrey still looked decisive, the kind old man only shook his head.
Richard looked at them, but then spoke up, his eyes glancing at Audrey, and then the female knight, and the large circle around him.
"After listening to your words, I felt that something was wrong with you. ”
Noticing that everyone around him was looking at him, Richard did not dodge or dodge, and said very calmly, "I heard it just now, and you all seem to be unable to resist making a move in the end, including Pastor Angelo......"
Richard suddenly found that these people with very good backgrounds in front of him, except for a few exceptions, the rest were recruits in a certain sense, and they did not have some important consciousness that they should have when fighting.
"In the face of such a criminal act, even I can't help but get angry. The old man interrupted him, but stopped pleading.
The female knight looked at Richard coldly, "If you didn't feel angry at that time, it can only mean that you are too cold-blooded, and you are just the same kind as them!"
"Is that what you're talking about?" Audrey glanced at Richard disapphantly, "I confess that we have made some mistakes in this matter, as a result of circumstances. But who can be at ease in the face of such a situation?"
Others are even more polite.
"Don't talk about it!"
"Although you saved us, it doesn't mean that you can casually deny our actions!"
"That's it, that's it, don't just talk nonsense just because you and Audrey know each other!"
The people here all have a history and have a lot of spirit.
As soon as he heard Richard's criticism, he immediately jumped out one by one like a fried cat.
There were only a few of them, Able, who didn't say anything, just thought silently.
Richard looked around again, one by one.
"I'm not saying that you didn't do it right, but that you rushed into the game without any plan at all. You have seen everything he has laid out, but why is it still such a mess later? ”
When he said this, the criticism suddenly subsided.
At this moment, the three barbarians stared at Richard in a daze.
As veterans of battle, they naturally understand their mistake this time.
"I feel like you're making mistakes that you don't know about. Richard made a sincere appearance, "If I had been here before, and saw him planning that evil sacrifice, I guess I wouldn't have been able to help it." After all, it's shameless to take a few innocent children. ”
He paused, then raised his voice.
"But what makes me different from you is that I am self-aware! I know that I am determined not to cross the threshold of conscience, and I will definitely take action when the time comes. So, before he could hurt a few children, I had to start planning carefully and preparing to do something to him and rescue those children. I will never be like you in a mess of sand, until finally I can't help it, and I still wonder if I should do this!"
Those who understood Richard's words were stunned at this time.
Pastor Angelo, like Angelo, began to think about the value of these words. As Richard expected, the old man was not a combat-savvy man, he was more like a traditional priest, inclined to use the light to heal rather than hurt others. This time, the old man joined the emergency tracking team, which was also forced by the situation.
Of course, there are still some who resist stubbornly.
The female knight looked at Richard indignantly, "Do you think so much is useful, maybe in the end it will not be his opponent." He's got an ambush here, I'm ......."
"Even if there is no ambush, are you really sure to take him?" Richard interrupted her with a smile, and after a pause, "There are too many uncertainties in this world, such as when you did something to him, did you ever think that his master would come?"
The female knight suddenly stopped talking.
"But it's because it's so complex that we have to think as much as we can. The more critical it is, the more calm you are. Grasp everything you can and do your best to grasp it. To add another word, our strength is on the surface, but our character is sinking under the water, and we need to constantly ponder. But these have to be considered, they have to be considered, and the more important the moment, the more cautious they must be!"
Richard summed it up in one sentence.
"All in all, there is a kind of wisdom called self-knowledge, and people are valuable to know themselves!"
