Section 6: The Truth About Killings
Rex and the Medic arrived at the hut just in time to save Issodar's life. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 InfoVivien carefully cleaned, dressed, and bandaged Isodal's wounds, and gave her a life potion. Soon, Issodar recovered from his coma. When she opened her eyes and saw her tenant standing next to her, she smiled.
Cataria threw herself into Rex's arms and cried aggrievedly, and Rex comforted her until she regained her composure. Vivien was amazed by this, Rex treated Cataria like a father, and the two of them were of different races from the outside. Her mind was full of speculation and questions, but none of them had a chance to ask Rex for a solution. Because his friends need more of their own healing and care.
Vivien and Barbas work in the room, and Rex builds a campfire and cooks dinner with Cataria and the hares she has caught. After they finished eating the rabbit, Rex and Vivien leaned over the fire and chatted, while Cataria sat in the doorway and played with a song. Babas, on the other hand, stayed in the house to take care of Issodar, cooking her a bowl of vegetable soup and bringing it to a stretcher.
Although Isodar was out of danger, he was still weak, lying on a stretcher and unable to stand up. The smell of vegetable soup woke her taste buds, and she struggled to raise her head and said weakly, "Thank you... Take care of me. ”
In a tender tone, Barbas said, "Don't talk, drink the soup quickly, you need to recuperate now." Come, drink the soup!" Babas took a small sip with a spoon and carefully fed her the soup.
"Come on, Miss Yi is awake!" Cataria stood on the threshold, beckoning excitedly to them.
Rex and Vivien immediately got up and went into the house, and when they saw Barbas serving Issodar to eat, he felt the sun warm in his heart, and in Babas, he saw the tender side of the man hidden under the rough exterior.
Vivien approached them, ready to do another examination of her injuries.
"I feel better, thank you. Issodar said.
"You're welcome. Rex said, "Didn't you help us in the tavern?" ”
"That's right!" Cataria interjected, "Miss Yi, you don't know, Uncle Babas was worried about you when you passed out, and he was afraid that you would leave us!"
Isodall's face flushed, and the girl's shyness was unmistakable. Barbas, on the other hand, was very calm, looking at her with enthusiasm and love.
After Vivien's examination, she found that the wound had basically recovered, and happily said to her, "Congratulations, you have a new life!"
Isodar was delighted and sat up with the help of Barbas, "I am alive thanks to your help!" she bowed to them in thanks.
Barbas laughed and said, "Don't worry, we're not going to watch you die." What's more, the tavern was vandalized, and we want to know the truth of the matter. ”
"We can help you if you need it. Rex said.
"I promise!" said Babas.
"Miss Yi, you're going to tell us the truth, right?" Cataria walked up to her and looked at her with a pair of watery eyes.
When Isodar heard their questioning, his expression was suddenly embarrassed, and tears flowed down from the corners of his eyes like beads of broken thread.
The crowd looked at each other in confusion, and then focused on Isodar, expecting her answer.
She lay down and began to sob. The joyous atmosphere suddenly reached an impasse.
"Okay, she needs a break, let's go out. Vivien broke the awkward atmosphere.
Rex nodded at her, he walked over to Barbas and said, "I'll leave it to you, take care of her!"
Barbas nodded, and sat down to stay with Isodar. As the three of them reached the door and were about to leave, Isodal suddenly said, "Terrible thing, very terrible thing happened. She silently repeated it twice.
Everyone was stunned, and Barbas said, "You... Can you elaborate on what happened to the tavern and you?"
"It's a long story!" she sighed, and continued, "did you see a young tiger man beheaded the day you came to Thorn City?" ”
"That's right, I did see that tiger man youth. You and him...!" Rex asked.
"He's my brother! They wronged him for adultery, and my brother was unjustly killed. "Isodal was emotional.
"Who are they?" asked Rex.
"King Thor Amuron and his general Orim, they are the demons who do evil!"
"So, they did all the people who were killed in the tavern?" asked Barbas.
Isodal closed his eyes and nodded.
"Why?" asked Rex.
"They plundered property, killed people, and sacrificed their own people in order to expand the territory of the Tiger people and gain more land resources. Issodar said.
"But you are a tiger man, why did you hurt together. Babas asked.
"I guess it was a premeditated thing. Isodal sighed again, "They're just waiting for an opportunity." My brother's name is Idrus, and he was a guard at the Palace of Thorns, and General Orim was his boss. ”
"Orim, the general who convicted him on the day of his execution?" asked Rex.
Isodal blinked, "That's him, the murderer of Idrus!"
"Can you tell me about your brother?" asked Barbas.
She stared at the dilapidated roof, silent for a moment, as if retrieving memories of her brother. In the middle of the ring, she said, "It all starts with a person, to be precise, with a woman." ”
"Ah, that must be his lover!" guessed Babas.
"That's right, it's the woman he loves, and it's a pity that she also has her head cut off. ”
"By that woman, are you referring to the Nord girl on the execution ground?" Rex asked, frowning.
"That's right, she was also pitiful, beheaded along with Idrus. She said coldly.
Rex could deeply feel the pain and despair of losing her loved ones in her heart, the grievance of suffering. I couldn't help but comfort, "Don't worry, when your body recovers, we will definitely help you take revenge, and such an abominable wicked person should be punished." Rex said, his fists rattling.
Isodal turned his face and whispered, "Thank you." ”
"Why, then, were your brother and that Nord girl sentenced to death?" asked Babas in a whisper.
She burst into tears again, "The Nord maiden's name is Tulia, the only daughter of the wealthy merchant Kalenwack, and they have a mansion in the Shield District. Father and daughter often come to the tavern for fun, so I know them very well. Later, feelings developed between Turia and my brother, and they started dating secretly. When I knew they had been dating for half a year. ”
"Young love is always mysterious. Barbas said.
A year later, King Thor Amuron led an army into the Black Marshes, and Idrus followed him on the expedition, fighting the Argons. They defeated most of the Argonians through aggressive tactics. ”
"I've heard about the invasion of the Black Swamp. The use of war to increase strength was the means used by the Amuron. Rex said.
"You're right," Isodal told him, "that war not only destroyed most of the Argonian race, but also looted a lot of money from their homeland. The Argonians were almost wiped out because of him. ”
Barbas angrily said "Bastard!"
By the time Idrus returned home from the battlefield, the Karenwak family had suffered a devastating turn. First, Kalenwak was imprisoned in black prison for protesting against the king's forced taxation, and then his family's mansion was sold, and Miss Tulia was captured by General Orim to use as a servant in his home, and they completely ruined Kalenwack's family. Isodar said in a hoarse voice.
"What's the difference between such a king and a robber!" Rex glanced at Barbas.
Babas had a strange expression, and said aggrievedly, "What do you see me doing, now I am the same as you, my history has been turned over." ”
"What happened next?" Rex looked at Isodal.
"Later," she thought, "Idrus infiltrated the General's house and decided to rescue Turia, who wanted to elope with her and leave the country. ”
"Well, it's not legal, but I approve of their actions. Barbas said.
"Unfortunately, Idrus's plan failed, and he was trapped in the garden by the general's soldiers. When he saw Miss Tollia's smiling face again, he gave up resisting. Orim took both of them into custody. Later, the general accused them of adultery and made the charges public throughout the city. On the very day you entered the city, they were beheaded. Although she was very sad inside, her eyes were dry, and tears flowed again.
"No wonder he keeps resisting, I see!" Rex said with relief.
"But the killing didn't stop. That night, the soldiers stormed the tavern on the orders of the general and slaughtered many of the merchants who were staying at the hotel, and I tried to stop them but was stabbed down by two soldiers in turn. I believe you have witnessed the horrific atrocities of the soldiers. She said indignantly.
"Well, the shocking scene is still vivid. Rex said.
Issodar's narration made everyone's hearts extremely heavy, and everyone lost their appetite for chatting. However, they all suffered from insomnia, and their hearts were like a stone parked, and their diaphragms were uncomfortable.
For the next few days, Cataria followed Rex like Rex's little tail, not leaving him for a moment, and she feared that Rex would leave her again. The physician, Vivien, teased him for becoming more and more like Cataria's father.
After a few people settled in the ruined wooden hut, the doctor made a bottle of recovery potion from the materials Rex had gathered, handed it to Barbas, and told him to take good care of her.
Isodar's injuries were quickly recovered by Vivien's treatment, and now she was able to get up and move, and Barbas helped her out of her dilapidated house and for a walk in the nearby forest. Rex takes Cataria and the Physician on a hunting trip, or gathering herbs to refine more healing potions.
Half a month later, Vivien decided that her life was no longer in danger and decided to leave them and return to her hometown. The night before she left, when everyone was asleep, Rex came to the doctor, and he made a request to her.
