Chapter 018: Gold Coin Bounty
The fat man who fell to the ground used his short arms to prop up his fat, he patted the dirt on his body, and turned to look angrily at the two strangers. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Who stumbled over me?you?or you?!" the fat man held out his finger and pointed back and forth at Kenny and Alan at the table.
"Fatty, let your boss come here, and I'll talk to him about compensating the silver wine glass. Kenny was already looking impatient.
"I'm Netz!"
The fat man took a few steps back, pointed his short index finger at Kenny and yelled at the crowd, "I'll give you a gold coin!"
The words fell on everyone's ears, and the silence in the hall could hear a needle falling to the ground, except for a man with a long sword pinned to his waist not far away, everyone slowly stood up and looked at the two strangers at the door.
"Why are you still eating. Kenny looked at the eager crowd as Alan sat in his chair eating pine nut pie.
"He paid a gold coin to buy your head, and he didn't say that he would buy mine, what does it have to do with me. Alan said as he took a sip of his glass and burped contentedly.
The people in the hall had already picked up their weapons and slowly approached Kenny as if they were defending themselves against the enemy.
There was no one who didn't want this gold coin, which was enough to pay off their half-month's wine bill, but everyone saw the silver armor on Kenny's body, and the man who could wear this kind of armor in this era was definitely not a soft persimmon to be kneaded, not to mention that his armor was covered with blood, and he also wore an expensive saber around his waist, and the wolf teeth on the saber made the owner of the saber very difficult to mess with.
"Bang!!"
With a loud bang, the pine table in front of him rolled twice in the air and smashed straight into the faces of the two soldiers behind him, and Kenny instantly drew his sword from his waist and stabbed the soldier with the quiver on his back.
The sharp blade stabbed into the side throat, and a terrifying blood hole appeared in the soldier's neck, and with a 'bang', blood gushed out, and the scimitar soldier sitting opposite stared at the burly man who fell in front of him, Kenny's movements were too fast and too decisive, and the blood splattered on the face of the soldier who was still sitting, and he didn't reflect at all.
Kenny pulled out his black steel sword, and instead of returning it to its sheath, it slashed directly at the stunned soldier, and a smear of blood spilled into the brazier next to him, and the fire in the hall dimmed for a moment, and the stunned soldier was cut off half of his head, but his lower body was still sitting upright in his chair.
On the side, Eren stabbed at the soldier standing at the door with his sword, no one could have imagined that the speed of these two strangers was so fast, and before the soldier at the door could draw his weapon, he had already been cut by Alan's black steel sword and his throat was slashed, and he collapsed in a pool of blood.
Kenny quickly stepped over the corpses of the two soldiers at the door, his burly body almost knocked the wooden door of the post house out, and as soon as he got out of the door, he saw the stable on the side collapse violently, and all the horses in the stable were frightened and galloped wildly, which was obviously Allen's masterpiece again, and the whole post house door was in chaos.
Alan was already on his horse, pulling the reins in one hand and Kenny's horse in the other.
"Quick, Kenny!"
There was the sound of tables and chairs toppling over in the hall of the post house, and the sound of insults, and the people who reflected it frantically flocked to the narrow exit of the post house, and the reckless men for the bounty squeezed the wooden door directly, and the quiet town was disturbed by the two strangers for a moment, Kenny was about to get on the horse, and suddenly found the barefoot little boy still squatting in the corner, looking at the two strangers in horror, Kenny picked up the boy like a chicken, and stepped on the horse with one hand.
Ignoring the noise behind them, the two shook the reins, and the horses disappeared into the night in an instant.
"Why do you remember this boy and not take a torch in the brazier at the door?"
The eyes of the two had obviously not yet adjusted to the darkness around them, and Allen's words were more like complaining that Kenny was nosy, which was contrary to their original intention of setting out, and in terms of helping Lawrence find the antidote, this dispensable boy must be insignificant in Allen's heart.
"Why didn't you remember to put away those pine nut pies before kicking over the table, I hadn't eaten pies in more than ten days!" Kenny deliberately diverted Alan's question.
Alan didn't say anything while riding the horse, and Kenny was indeed as nosy as Lawrence said, especially when it came to helping the weak.
After walking forward for a while, seeing that no one was chasing after them, their horses slowed down slightly, but fortunately the stars could barely be seen in the night sky, otherwise the two of them would definitely be lost in this vast snowfield.
"Now tell me what to do, wait here for the wandering beasts to eat us, or drive to Nipur City overnight?" The darkness and cold around him filled Alan's words with displeasure.
"Let's go back to Nanna Village first, there are no other towns around here, don't you see this little guy is about to freeze to death?" Kenny sat behind the kidnapped little boy, the little guy clung to Kenny's belt, didn't dare to speak, didn't dare to let go, as if he was being slaughtered.
"Back to Nanna, I heard you right, Lawrence is still mutating on the Prophet's side, and you're wasting precious time for a strange stinky boy?"
"If Lawrence was still awake, he would definitely agree with my decision, Alan, there are many poor people in this world, we really can't help them, but as long as they do, I can't sit idly by, I bet that if we don't care about this little guy, he will freeze to death at the door of the inn in less than three days. ”
Alan looked at Kenny in the dark night, reluctantly turned his horse's head, and ran towards the palm grove where the two had come.
The moon crept overhead, and it was already the second half of the night, and the two of them, who had been running for more than ten hours in a row, were already very tired, and they were walking through the dense palm groves, the cold wind of deep winter cutting their skin, and the boy behind Kenny shivering in the cold wind.
"Damn, I shouldn't have come out with you to show you the way. Alan grumbled behind Kenny with the torch he had just made.
"Alan, you've been nagging all night, can you save some effort and rush back to Nanna Village. ”
As soon as Kenny finished speaking, the torch in his hand disappeared into the surface like a shooting star, and Allen, who was walking behind, saw Kenny disappear in front of him, and quickly pulled the reins off the horse.
Alan walked slowly towards the place where Kenny had disappeared, his feet crunching in the deep snow, the torch in his hand was blown aside by the wind like a crooked wizard's hat, Alan crouched on the ground trying to find the reason for Kenny's disappearance, he cautiously moved forward.
In the darkness, the firelight lit up the snow, and a huge crater caught Allen's eyes, and he slowly approached the hole, crouching down and holding the torch in his hand close to the edge of the hole.
The fear of the unknown from the darkness made Alan shiver, and as he reached into the cave with his torch to try to find the vanished Kenny, a pair of brown eyes with fire shining through the darkness stared straight at him from the bottom of the dark cave.
