Chapter 33: Return to the City of Tissai
Looking at the numbers behind the horses on the list, Ferdy's eyes flashed with eagerness. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Fifty horses!" Ferdy muttered to himself.
"Yes! Some of the horses were scurrying around in shock from the explosion you made, but some of them didn't go far. I had the horses follow the horseshoe prints, and I caught fifty of them!" said Gigiro complacently.
"Send for thirteen horses down the mountain, and I'll go out later!" said Ferdy, looking at Gigiro.
Gigiro took the order and left.
In the afternoon, Ferdy descended the mountain with twelve bandits. At the foot of the mountain, a group of thirteen people rode in the direction of Tisai City, which had been prepared for a long time.
Five of the bandits who followed Ferdy were at the rank of a Level 3 warrior, and Gigiro was left on the hill by Ferdy to watch his home and did not follow. The remaining seven are the best players carefully selected by Gigiro among the bandits of the level 2 warrior rank.
Ferdy hadn't planned to visit Tiser himself, as his internal injuries had not yet healed. However, in Chuckna, he was surprised to learn of a safe passage in and out of the city of Tisai.
Ferdy is tempted!
Having lived in the city of Tisse since he could remember, leaving was just a last resort, and now that there was a chance to see it, Ferdy didn't want to miss it.
The city of Tisai is twenty kilometers away from Erlong Mountain, and if Ferdy and the others ride horses, they can reach it in two hours at the earliest.
Although he wanted to return to Tiser City immediately, Ferdy and his party were not fast. As a result, Ferdy's injuries did not heal and could not support the long and violent turbulence. Second, although the safe passage provided by Chuck is hidden, there are many people in the daytime, and it is safer to pass at night.
As night fell, Ferdy followed Chuck's offer and came to the edge of a ruined wall. This section of the wall has fallen into disrepair, and many of the stones that built the wall have fallen off, and the wall is crooked and slanted, and it looks like it is about to collapse.
A large rusty iron gate was embedded in the center of the ruined city wall, covered with cobwebs, and a large lock with a glimmering copper light could be faintly seen hidden in the cobwebs.
Ferdy and the bandits came to the iron gate, turned over and dismounted, and looked at the mottled city gate in front of them, and Ferdy took a key from his bosom.
According to Chuck, this gate used to be the back gate of Tisai, but because of its remote location, very few people know about it. Many years ago, an earthquake caused serious damage to this section of the wall, although it was repaired many times, the wall was already unstable, and from time to time stones would peel off, and finally the back door had to be completely closed and re-installed elsewhere.
After the original back door was abandoned, the key remained in the hands of the commander of the city guard of Tisser. Chuck also learned about this secret after taking over the position of commander.
Pushing aside the dense cobwebs, the copper lock on the iron door appeared in front of everyone.
"Click!"
The key in Ferdy's hand opened the back door that had not been opened in a long time.
"Leave one brother to guard the horses, and the rest hide their weapons and come with me into the city!" said Ferdy, looking at the bandits around him.
Leaving behind to guard the horses was a Tier 2 warrior-level bandit, leading everyone's horses into the woods opposite the city gate.
It was already completely dark, and Ferdy and the eleven bandits deliberately kept their distance and swaggered into the streets of Tiser City.
Although it is night, there are few people on the streets of Tisai City, but from time to time you can still hear all kinds of shouts and shouts. On both sides of the street, there are many shops, and through the windows, you can see the bean yellow lights in the room, and there are many people.
Looking at the familiar streets, Ferdy's heart was full of emotion: "Tisse City, I'm here!"
At this time, Ferdy's heart suddenly swelled with the urge to roar. However, looking at the bandits scattered around him, Ferdy thought of his current identity.
With a wistful sigh, Ferdy walked towards Jingshui Hutong.
The Jingshui Hutong is located to the east of the city of Tisai, and unlike the slums where Ferdy used to live in the west, the Jingshui Hutong in the west of the city was the place where the dignitaries of the city of Tisai were located.
Chuck received the title of "knight", and it stands to reason that he is not qualified to live in Jingshui Hutong. However, Chuck's title of "knight" still bears the aura of the commander of the city guards of Tisai City, which makes him barely qualified to make a home in Jingshui Hutong.
Standing on the stone bridge, looking out at the buildings tightly surrounded by a moat not far ahead, Ferdy had mixed feelings.
The palatial mansions are lined up one after another, the tall courtyards are brightly lit, and the well-water alleys have arrived.
The bandits behind Ferdy stared at everything in front of them with wide eyes and obsessive expressions on their faces.
"See, this is the life of a rich man!" Ferdy glanced at the bandits around him, "The non-officials living here are expensive, and we people may never have the opportunity to live in them in our lifetime." However, as long as we are strong enough, we can grab it and enjoy it. Now, hehe!
The bandits nodded in agreement. They didn't understand why the big boss was so good to Chuck, not only did they not kill him, but they also appointed him as the chief instructor of Erlong Mountain.
Now it seems that the big boss is still far-sighted! When everyone is strong, what else can't be grabbed?
It's ridiculous that these mountain artillerymen are still itching and can't sleep today for a set of trophies of the city guards, so they run outside the cave of the big boss before dawn and deliberately shout to disturb the rest of the big boss.
According to Chuck's address, Ferdy walked across the stone bridge and into Jingshui Alley. The bandits noticed that Ferdy was missing in front of them, and finally came to their senses and took a step to chase Ferdy.
After some time, Ferdy and his party walked outside the gate of Chuck's house.
This is a two-hall courtyard, and its scale is not conspicuous among the tall and ornate buildings of Jingshui Hutong.
Ferdy waved his hand at the bandits around him, gathering in the darkness where the bandits around Ferdy were quickly hiding.
"Knock knock!"
Ferdy knocked on the door of Chuck's house, and in a few moments, a hunched old man opened the door and appeared in front of Ferdy.
"Who are you looking for?" the old man asked with a cold face as he looked at Ferdy.
"Someone gave me a letter saying that there would be a reward of ten copper coins if it was delivered here!" said Ferdy, taking the letter from his bosom and placing it in the old man's hand, with an innocent expression.
The old man took the letter and stared at Ferdy suspiciously for a long time: "I'll go and show Madame! If it's true, the reward will naturally not be less than you!"
Ferdy grinned, dodged to the side of the gate and stood quietly.
The old man closed the door.
It wasn't long before Ferdy heard hurried footsteps in the courtyard.
"Is he seriously injured?" asked the door again, but this time it was a woman of about thirty years of age, who asked eagerly as she shoved Ferdy with a handful of copper.
Ferdy took the copper with both hands, shook his head and said, "That person just asked me to take people out of the city immediately, I don't know about other things!"
The woman was stunned, hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth and said, "Wait a minute, let's clean up and go with you immediately!"
After a quarter of an hour, the woman appeared before Ferdy with a large burden on her back and two children on her hand, one on the left and one on the right.
Ferdy didn't speak, and walked directly out of the well-water alley, and the woman and two children behind him followed Ferdy step by step.
Passing by a mansion, Ferdy's footsteps suddenly stopped. Looking at the plaque on the door of the mansion, the anger in Ferdy's heart erupted like a volcano!
When he was young, his sister was worried that he was alone at home, and he was brought by his sister several times, and it was Baron Wilson's palace!
