244. Bad luck encounter

The robbers tugged at her blonde curls and led her to Taylor's front.

Taylor, the leader of the bandits, picked up the portrait and asked her, "She's your maid?" ”

"Selena?" Miss Hoyle replied in a choked sob.

She felt that if she didn't speak honestly, her hair might be ripped off by the robbers, and she only glanced at it and recognized the beautiful woman in the portrait.

Taylor reached out to straighten Miss Hoyle's messy hair, pulled her skirt that barely covered anything to her shoulders, reached out and pinched Miss Hoyle's delicate face, stared at Miss Hoyle with a pair of eyes, and asked her, "Do you know where she went?" ”

Seeing those eyes full of disgust, Miss Hoyle was terrified, and replied in a trembling voice, "I don't know, she left here after she got married, we have no contact, I know she hates me, hates me for not having the courage to stand up when she needs me most." ”

Taylor stared at Miss Hoyle, who was crying, pinched her chin with his thumb and forefinger, leaned in front of her, stared at her and asked, "Then what do you know?" ”

Or...... It's only the two of us that you can figure out how to answer! As he spoke, Taylor took Miss Hoyle's lotus-like arm and pulled her toward the castle.

Miss Hoyle was dragged by a great force, staggered and stepped on the hem of her skirt, and took off her long dress, which had been torn to tatters, and she broke down and cried, "...... Ah, you bandits who are not good to die. ”

Miss Hoyle was like a white sheep, dragged by the arm of the bandit leader Taylor down the bloodied white stone steps into the castle.

A young servant rose from the crowd below the steps, summoned up the courage to shout at the bandit leader, "If you let Miss Hoyle go, I will tell you the whereabouts of Selena, I know the little gardener's hometown." ”

The butler, who was standing by, winked at the young man, and saw that the young man did not look at him at all, and that his fiery eyes were fixed on Miss Hoyle and Taylor, the leader of the robbers, and the butler broke free from his restraints, rushed at the young man, and grabbed him by the neck in an attempt to strangle him.

The robber behind the butler quickly caught up, stabbed the butler in the back of the heart with the scimitar in his hand, the tip of the knife came out of the butler's chest and throat, and a bloody arrow pierced out of the throat, the butler's face was hideous, his eyes were staring at the young man angrily, and he wanted to say something more, but unfortunately in the end he didn't say anything and fell in front of the young man.

Taylor took Miss Hoyle's arm and stood at the door of the castle coldly watching the farce below the steps.

The young man's face was pale, but he looked stubbornly at the leader of the robbers, and said in a loud voice: "If you let Miss Hoyle go, I will tell you where the little gardener lives!" ”

The robber next to him was furious, pulled the young man out of the crowd, kicked the young man to the ground, and angrily reprimanded: "What qualifications do you have to negotiate terms with our boss? Say it! ”

The young man stared at the robber with a stubborn expression, and the robber carried an iron rod and smashed it into the young man's leg.

The young man screamed, and the leg bone was broken, and then the stick smashed into the other leg of the young man, and the young man screamed: "That little gardener lives in the village of Wall......

Taylor, the leader of the robbers, squinted his eyes, glanced at Miss Hoyle, pushed her to the robbers beside him, and said, "Take her, and we'll go to the village of Wall." ”

Not long after, the leader of the robbers came out of the castle with several robbers, who were carrying large parcels, and as Taylor passed by the young man, he commanded his men who were guarding the servants in Hoyle's manor, "Deal with it cleanly this time......

The noblewomen, maids, and servants kneeling at the foot of the steps all fell in pools of blood.

The gang of robbers left Hoyle Manor in a hurry before dawn......

……

The city of Hylanza

early morning

Surdak retrieved the cooked salamander skins from the leather shop, ate a little breakfast, and bought some fruits and sweets from the market in the city of Highlanza and put them in his magic waist bag, and then rode out of the city of Highlandsa.

When he left the city, Surdak saw a group of knights gathered at the city gate, this group of knights was fully armed and waiting in place under the shade of the trees at the city gate, but unfortunately Karl was not seen from the crowd.

The oak forests on both sides of the trail range from dense to sparse, and the Guboren horses gallop forward happily along the trail.

By noon, there was not much oak on either side of the road, and a large area of rocky mountains was exposed, and a large area of cracks appeared in the sun, and turning over the ridge in front of it meant that it was the barren land of the Paglos Mountains, the road was rugged and steep, but the road was not difficult for Guborima.

Surdak saw a wagon carrying a wagon slowly moving along the mountain road, and in the distance he could see two familiar large wooden boxes on the cart, in addition to these, the carriage was also loaded with some miscellaneous goods, it seems that this wagon was hired by the owner of the blacksmith shop, the owner of the carriage shop was very economical, and also brought some private goods, knowing that there was a shortage of goods in the remote villages and towns.

The Guborai horse easily passed the wagon, and the coachman even took off his hat and saluted Surdak respectfully. No matter where the knight is, he will always receive some preferential treatment.

The hot afternoon sun scorched the hillside, and the evaporation of countless water vapors made the scene in front of him slightly distorted, Surdak felt that it would definitely be cooked at this time to travel under the sun without shade, and felt that the Gubolai horse also needed a rest, so he rode into the oak forest on the side of the mountain road, and he was going to give the Gubolai horse some water to drink and eat some bean feed.

And what about yourself...... It's perfectly possible to take a nap in this wood.

Half-asleep, Surdak felt a little restless in Gubolima, and then he smelled a faint smell of blood, like the battlefield of Moyunling in the Warsaw plane, which was a fishy sweet smell of dried blood stains sticking to the weapon and making it rust.

He opened his eyes suddenly, and through the layers of dense forest, Surdak saw that the wagon had chased up from the mountain road behind, but the coachman at this time seemed a little panicked, and the long whip in his hand whipped the horse desperately, and many of the goods on the wagon were thrown down by him along the way, and he was also sitting on the carriage covered in blood, looking back in a panic from time to time.

Behind the wagon, a team of horses was in hot pursuit, and several large men on horseback tried to intercept the carriage, and the coachman used the wagons to occupy half of the mountain road and crush the riders behind the carriage.

Surdak got up from under the tree, and saw two archers on horseback behind the caravan, pulling their bowstrings apart, and two feathered arrows were fired at the coachman, but both of them missed, one nailed to the large wooden box of the wagon, and the other simply flew away.

In the blink of an eye, the wagon sped along the mountain road outside the forest where Surdak was located, and the horse team chased all the way down.

The man who walked at the back immediately hung a hammer of punishment covered with barbs, and a young woman tied into a rice dumpling was carried in front of the saddle......

There are more than 20 people in the gang of robbers, and the big man who walks in the back can afford to hold the hammer of punishment, and his arm strength must be very amazing.

I have the advantage of being alone, and rushing forward is likely to be sent to death...... Surdak was so entangled in his heart that he hesitated.

But then he saw the coachman with the wagon, desperately fleeing on the mountain road......

Surdak gritted his teeth, thinking to himself: if he was not rescued, the iron weapons in these two large wooden boxes would probably be robbed by the bandits.

Thinking of this, Surdak quickly mounted his horse, and then he jumped off his horse, took the precious lizard head out of his magic waist bag, and quickly set up the sacrificial altar in the woodland......
