Cross recalls the experience of those days and realizes that he has gained almost nothing. The elves www.biquge.info seemed to recognize Rirexy and knew that he would return, but they were just as silent as Rillez, and they didn't even ask him what he was coming from.
The elves who were in charge of settling them were all polite, but that politeness was a formality. For a few days, they were left to dry on the side and waited for the so-called arrangement. In this regard, Liriqi, who was in a hurry to rush to the Golden Forest, actually handled it calmly, as if he was competing with the elves to see who could not hold his breath first......
"Hear from Dildedo that Sylreth is missing, what's going on?" Kross asked. He decided not to find out why Rireth was in a hurry to go to the Golden Grove, but to find out what was going on with the Nightingale.
"Ririz isn't going to drive me back here for no reason, is he?" thought Cross.
After that fight, he had been careful with Lirezi, except for one thing that was a little out of line - when Ora asked Lirezi to stay, he deliberately slammed the door, saying that the wizard had slept, and Lirezzi debunked his lie with a sharp cough.
Thinking of this, Cross glanced at Ola, consciously or unconsciously, and the girl was looking at him like everyone else, with a hint of hope in her expression. It is impossible for these people to suddenly care about him, the one-eyed, they should be concerned about the wizard, or rather the wizard. Is it because the female leader of this village is missing? I'm afraid he can't help it.
After a brief pause, Wall said, "Someone doesn't want to see me doing well with Silres. ”
Cross raised his eyebrows slightly, and he turned to look at Wall, only to hear Wall continue: "We caught a peregrine spies, but he died. All the kid next to me knew was that a hooknose had attacked him...... We're really out of the way to count on wizards......"
"Draby or Derek?" Before Wall could finish his sentence, the two names popped out from between Cross's teeth, and the tone was extremely cold, as if from the mouth of a wronged soul......
In the middle of the night, everyone seemed to be asleep, but Cross sat on the edge of the bed with his pipe in his mouth. He touched the hollow eye on his face, and his palms were covered with sweat.
Just now, he was awakened by a nightmare, and until now, a series of images flashed in his mind, either the scene before Lanzart's death, or what Wall had talked about.
"Like! These two things are so similar!" Cross thought.
I remember that time, Lanzat suddenly disappeared without a trace, and everyone thought that he might have been delayed for a long time outside the village to collect medicine, but in fact, no one saw the doctor leave the village. And this time, the situation of Childes is very similar. Leok thought the woman had disappeared outside the village, but the boy hadn't seen her at all. In fact, not only Leok, but also several of the guys who said that Hireth had gone outside the village, none of them saw her, and they were all indoctrinated with the lie that the woman had left the village - Wall had brought a shipment of supplies, and Celes had gone out to meet him.
"Where was Lanzat in the first place?" Kross recalled with a frown.
That time, when he finally realized that he had been blinded by "taking things for granted", when he finally found the doctor in the village warehouse, it was too late, Lanzat was pierced in the abdomen and his body was almost drenched in blood.
Cross almost collapsed and took a sharp puff of his cigarette, a feeling of dizziness came over him, and he slowly exhaled the smoke as if he had cleared his mind. The oppressive past took shape in his mind in a gentle, psychedelic way.
He saw Lanzat for the last time. At that time, the doctor was still conscious, and he was lying in a pool of blood, a pair of eyes that had lost focus turned to him. He felt as if Lanzat was trying his best to wait for him to come to him, so that he could say something, but before he could touch Lanzart, a blow arrow blinded him in one eye, and when he regained consciousness, Lanzat lost consciousness, and he went away without even saying a word to him, leaving him with no hatred but nowhere to vent.
Cross jumped suddenly. Lanzat could not name who had harmed him, but he remembered that Rillez had said that the father and son were inseparable from the death of the doctor, and that he had paid attention to them for a whole day, but he found nothing. Now, the same thing has happened to Silris, and it is undoubtedly a repetition of the same old trick! Is it the father and son who did it? If so, they will definitely leave a trace.
"Cross, I want you to go back to the Nightingale by yourself. ”
I remember that while on the Elf's territory, Ririzi suddenly made a decision to separate.
"Why? I don't want to leave you. He was stunned.
"If you stay here, you're getting in the way of me, and besides, you have your own mission, and you'll know when you go there. Lirizzi gave him another answer.
Now, Cross finally knew what that meant, and Lyric hadn't driven him back to Nightingale's territory for no reason. That year, he had lost an eye and learned a lesson, and now Lirezi asked him to dig up the clues left by the father and son to avenge the doctor.
Thinking of this, Cross could no longer sit still. He rushed out of the house and ran to tap Wall's door, which almost opened. Then, a face with dark circles under his eyes from sleepless nights poked out.
"Is that you? what's wrong?"
Seeing that the person who knocked on the door was actually Cross, Wall couldn't help but show a surprised expression. Before he could ask Cross what he meant, he said straight to the point: "Silreth probably didn't lose it outside the village." ”
As soon as he said this, Wall grabbed his shoulders with an anxious expression.
"You know what's going on?"
Cross shook his head.
"I just guessed it, but for now, you can only believe me, right? find someone to take us to the village's warehouse. ”
The night that should have been quiet became noisy because of these words, and the doors of one house after another were slammed, and the few people who had returned to their residences a moment ago almost all gathered at the edge of the warehouse.
Hawke called for the guards in charge of the warehouse, and two confused youths pushed open the main door of the warehouse in a hurry. They placed their torches on the shelves by the wall, muttering that no one had been here in this place for a while, when suddenly they swallowed the words they had not yet spoken.
"What's wrong. Sensing the difference in their faces, Hawke couldn't help but frown. He took the lantern that Ola handed him and asked as he shone it around.
"There's a cart missing here...... "One of the guards said.
"What is it?" asked Hawke again, and he had only been back in the village for a while, and he couldn't see anything wrong with the warehouse.
"Yes...... Bloody mushrooms, sun-dried, after we fell out with Drogris, the cart was left in the warehouse, and no one cared about it.
