Chapter 17: Returning Home
"You say you're the mausoleum keeper of Grand Duke André?" asked Bonaparte, with a hint of surprise in his tone. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
And under Bonaparte's lap, Marcelo, who was kneeling on the ground, was nodding his head in horror at this time, and desperately explained to Bonaparte: "Yes, sir, our Marcello family has been responsible for guarding the secrets of the treasure of Archduke André for generations. ”
"Marcelo's family, are you a nobleman?The secret of the treasure of Grand Duke André?" Bonaparte frowned, obviously not believing in this Marcelo's statement, you must know that the funerals of European nobles in the Middle Ages were generally religious funerals, and they were buried with something very meaningful to themselves under the witness of the priest, and they would not carry a large number of treasures.
"Sir, listen to my explanation, when Grand Duke Andre was alive, he formed the famous Iron Horse Brotherhood on the mainland, and then Grand Duke Andre led the members of the Iron Horse Brotherhood to fight in the north and south, and finally laid a great foundation for King Lindu. Marcelo swallowed his saliva and secretly looked at the silent Bonaparte and continued: "Later, after the death of Duke Andrei, he hid all the gold coins he collected in his life in a mysterious place, and divided the treasure map into several parts and distributed it to all members of the Iron Horse Brotherhood. ”
Bonaparte couldn't help but be a little suspicious when he heard this Marcello nonsense: "The Iron Horse Brotherhood?"
"Back to the old man, the Iron Horse Brotherhood is a non-governmental organization, and I don't estimate that there will be more than 30 members in this organization at the moment, but the members of the Iron Horse Brotherhood must be the most powerful people, so if you can get the support of the Iron Horse Brotherhood, it is equivalent to getting the whole country!" Marcelo was doing his best to tempt Bonaparte.
Marcelo's words are simply full of loopholes, which makes it difficult for Bonaparte to really believe Marcelo: "You have said that the members of the Iron Horse Brotherhood are the most powerful people, and you obviously do not have this condition, as for the Marcelo family you said, I have never heard of it, if you say that you are not a member of the Iron Horse Brotherhood, then how did you know this secret?"
Bonaparte put the machete in his hand on Marcelo's neck again, and Marcelo believed that as long as he made a mistake in saying any word, the man in front of him would not hesitate to swing the machete in his hand and end his life of inaction.
"My lord, our Marcelo family is the Duke's mausoleum keeper! Our mission is to guide all the descendants of Duke André in the future to find the treasure. Marcelo, of course, knew that his life was in Bonaparte's hands at this time, and he did not dare to say a word of falsehood at this time, because from Bonaparte's performance, he was obviously not very satisfied with Marcelo's previous explanation.
"This Duke Andre is really full of food, and he buried the money himself and let his descendants find it, and it will be passed on directly. Bonaparte thought maliciously that this might be a prank played by André to the world before he died.
"I've dealt with that villager!" Bonaparte was still thinking about what to do with this Marcelo, and little Hillman appeared behind him.
Hearing little Hillman's reply, Bonaparte felt a pang of distress in his heart for no reason, this time he actually let that Cross get away, it was simply not time to let him, Bonaparte frowned and asked, "Did you see Cross when you were chasing and killing that villager of Yi Village just now?"
"Sir, we haven't met anyone along the way from the past to the time we have returned. Little Hillman replied to Bonaparte without thinking, and it was evident that little Hillman had become much more gloomy after two murders.
Bonaparte patted little Hillman on the shoulder and motioned him to rest for a while: "This world is like this, don't have a burden, those noble lords are also beating and scolding their peasants at will all day long, and more people die at their hands, they are not still alive and well, we must live well like them." ”
"Yes, sir. After listening to Bonaparte's reassurance, little Hillman's face looked a little better, and then he turned and sat down on a stone pile not far away, and fell asleep.
Bonaparte, on the other hand, looked in the direction of Clos's escape, it stands to reason that the direction to the town should be the way where Little Hillman came back, if Cross went around in a circle from the night back to the direction of the town, then Little Hillman should be able to see him, unless Cross just blindly ran ahead, but in front of the direction where Cross fled was a mountain forest.
"Geman, come here. Bonaparte waved his hand and summoned German.
"Sir, are you looking for me?" said German flatteringly to Bonaparte, looking unusually respectful, he had just seen the villagers stab the two hapless mercenaries to death.
"You will return to Yi Village at dawn later, send a villager to check here, and when that villager reports that there is a dead person, you will send a villager to the town to tell the mayor that the village chief Cross died in the bandits, and let me be the head of Yi Village before he dies, and let him send militia to suppress the bandits. ”
"Yes, sir, Geman has made a note of it. ”
"The order of this matter must not be messed up, remember!" Bonaparte had to tell German to be careful about this matter, he needed to make his annexation of the village of Yi legal, and he also needed to eliminate the militia in the town and maintain his independence, so that he could develop Xu Tu: "After you have done these things, come to the Roman village and join me." ”
"Roman Village?" asked German, confused.
"It's the village of Daleng, and now it's called Roman Village. ”
Geman replied respectfully, "Yes, sir." ”
"Little Hillman, come here!" was a precious moment for Bonaparte, and he needed to make use of every minute he had: "You will go to the vicinity of Lieyuan after dawn, find some necessary intersections, and kill him for me when you see Cross! If you don't see anyone in three days, go back to the village and join me!"
"Yes, sir!" replied little Hillman very dryly.
"Alright, you two can rest here in the grotto. When Bonaparte had told all the things, he beckoned the people back to the village: "Brothers, let us go home together!"
