Chapter 012: Verbal War

Marven leaned against the window, his eyes staring sharply at the man on the stairs, his hand slowly moving to the saber at his waist. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The old man on the stairs had messy white hair, and the flames of the oil lamp in his hand kept jumping, and the furnishings in the whole room flickered and dimmed with the flames.

"You, who are you? No, don't hurt me. The old man on the stairs looked at Marven in horror.

"I am a soldier of the Union Army, and I was hunted down. Marven slowly lowered his hand that moved towards the sword, he didn't dare to reveal his identity and that of the lord.

"Is that man, the man on the ground, dead?" the old man swallowed with a shudder.

"No, he's the best knight in the Alliance Army, and now he's been drugged by drugs and unconscious, do you know where there are people nearby who can save him?" Marven leaned against the wall alertly.

"If I may, can I see him? I'm the gardener in this city, and everyone in the city calls me Old Harry, and I've learned a little bit about medicine from wizards, if you believe me. The old man walked tentatively down the stairs with an oil lamp in one hand and a wooden staircase in the other.

Marven walked over to Kenny with the injury on his foot, and then nodded at the old Harry upstairs.

The two worked together to carry the unconscious Kenny to the dining table in the corner of the room, and the elder Harry placed the oil lamp in the corner of the dining table, and Marven gradually relaxed his guard and stood by to stare at the fainting Kenny.

Old Harry peeled Kenny's eyelids and looked at him, then broke his mouth again, and he picked up the oil lamp and approached Kenny's face, trying to see his tongue.

"Knight, if I'm not mistaken, your friend must have been bewitched by a potion made from dragon petals, but fortunately you escaped with him, and the poisonous smoke he inhaled was not fatal, but. Old Harry hesitated, "I'm just a gardener, not a wizard of dark magic, I can only help you temporarily relieve his poison without hurting his internal organs, if you want to dispel the poisonous smoke he inhales, you still need to help him find a wizard who knows how to refine medicine." ”

"Thank you, kind Black guys. We are the cavalry of the city of Karta, and there may be men who are chasing us outside, and if you can help us escape, we will send you a large sum of gold coins to thank you when we return. Marven looked at old Harry in the firelight.

"You seem to be injured too, there is still some time before dawn, let's rest for a while, I want to see if there is any way to send you out of the city, why are you being hunted down by others, isn't the leader of the Alliance Army also coming to Black?

"Sorry knight, I've always been a bit talkative, I'm sorry, I'm just curious, I didn't say anything. Old Harry saw the knight's eyes change from relaxed to vigilant in the firelight, and he suddenly realized that his words might kill him.

Marven leaned against his lord's side, his hand was always on the saber, as if someone would rush in here to assassinate them at any time, old Harry had gone upstairs to rest after using Kenny's medicine, Marven listened to the movement upstairs at any time, for fear that the old man would secretly report to someone.

After a sleepless night, the sky gradually brightened, and the shouts of early vendors gradually began to emerge outside the house, Marven looked down at his arrow wound, and the bleeding had stopped.

Old Harry came down from upstairs, and he asked Marven if he wanted to bring him a breakfast too, and Marven rejected Old Harry's enthusiasm.

The curtains were opened, the sunlight was shining through the window, and old Harry told Marven to follow him to the back door. Walking to the back door, Marven saw a cart selling flowers parked behind the house, and the bottom of the cart was full of all kinds of flowers and plants.

They moved all the flowers and plants under the cart into the house, and together they stuffed Kenny into the cart, and Harry Sr. helped Marven find a set of his son's old clothes, and then took out some mud from the flower pot and wiped it on Marven's arm, dressing him up like a flower farmer.

They pushed the cart together and walked towards the east gate of Black City, and a group of patrolmen passed by them, and the sweat on Marven's palms kept flowing, but fortunately, he arrived at the gate of the city without danger.

They looked at the majestic Black Gate and saw that the guards at the gate were checking on the people leaving the city one by one.

"Knight, can you tell me the truth, are the guards at the gate looking for you?"

"Maybe. The road was no longer crossable, so Marven pushed the cart around and walked towards the city.

After much hesitation, Marven still told the truth, "Old Harry, thank you for helping us, I think you are a trustworthy person, and the person in the cart is Kenny, the leader of the Alliance Army." ”

"What?!" Old Harry looked at Marven in astonishment, and then said excitedly, "Oh my God, I actually saved the lord of Karta City, the leader of the Alliance Army, oh my God." ”

"You're going to lure the patrol guards over with such a loud voice. Marven poked old Harry with his arm.

"Sorry, I'm so excited. Old Harry did not hide his excitement in the slightest, "We will turn left in the street in front of us, and there is a secret passage in the southeast corner of the city wall, which all the smugglers in the city know. ”

"Smuggler, aren't you a gardener, old Harry. Marven looked at old Harry with disdain.

"Knight, I'm not lying, I'm a gardener. You people in Karta City may not know that King Martin issued a ban on dark magic wizards during his reign, but there are still many underground dark magic wizards in the city, but most of them are some magicians. ”

"You also know that there are some diseases that doctors can't see well, such as the great lord in our car. After the ban was lowered, everything about dark magic wizards became forbidden, and those underground dark magic wizards began to secretly bring alchemy materials to the city, but they were often caught by the guards guarding the city and then taken to Eden Square to be burned alive. ”

"So some people slowly started digging tunnels, it's already an open secret in our place, and no one has told this secret for so many years, after all, most of those wizards make medicine to save people. Old Harry took the trouble to answer Marven's questions, as if he were giving a speech to a hero.

In the blink of an eye they were in the southeast corner of Black City, where old Harry walked into a tailor's shop, and after a few words to his boss, he beckoned Marven to push the car in.

The owner of the tailor's shop led them into the backyard, and then opened a door, and old Harry pointed to the cellar in the house and said, "Go down from here and follow the light, and when you get to the side, climb up the ladder, and you will go out of town, and I will ask the master of this place to borrow some dry bread and water, and I can only send you here, and if Lord Kenny wakes up and tells him that the people here adore him, oh yes, don't forget to tell him that my name is Harry." ”

Marven put his hand on Old Harry's shoulder, nodded at him in thanks, and after saying goodbye to Old Harry, Marven carried Kenny on his back and followed what Old Harry said out of town.

With a foot injury, Marven limped with Kenny on his back and walked east to the city of Karta, which was three hundred miles away from the border of Karta City, and Marven was really worried about whether the lord on his back would make it home alive.
