Chapter 40: Sawyer's Choice
The third floor of the tavern, the innermost room. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Marquis Will stood expressionlessly, and in the corridor, there were several servants guarding him.
Will glanced at the bed, a white sheet covered a cold corpse, although the bumpy body could still be seen, but when he saw the face outside the sheet, the originally charming face had been distorted, Marquis Will couldn't help but sigh, and ordered:
"Take it out and burn it. ”
"Yes. A few servants immediately answered and walked in, put the sheet over her face, and then rolled up the body with the blanket on the bed and carried it out.
As soon as the Marquis of Will turned and went downstairs, a few more servants came in and packed the jewels and other valuables in the room and took them out.
After going downstairs, the Marquis of Will came to a carriage parked outside the tavern, and the sergeant who was driving the car saw the Marquis of Will and hurriedly saluted, and then opened the curtain of the carriage to reveal a man inside.
I saw that the Marquis of Lemmon had already been put on his clothes, but there was still a piece of linen stuffed in his mouth, and he was lying straight inside, struggling and writhing, and his mouth was still whining and calling something.
The sergeant saw that the Marquis of Will took a step back expressionlessly, so he lowered the curtain, and was about to set off when he saw the Marquis of Will wave his hand, and then a handsome young man came over, jumped lightly on the other side of the carriage, and sat down on it steadily, smiled and nodded to him.
Then he heard Will say, "Lenny, I hope you won't disappoint me on this trip. ”
Lanny hurriedly replied respectfully, "I will do my best, please rest assured Lord Will." ”
The Marquis of Will nodded, and as soon as he turned to leave, fifty sergeants on war horses divided back and forth, guarding the carriage in the middle, and then the sergeant driving the carriage shook his wrist, and after the whip exploded in the air, the two horses pulling the cart, Herod, neighed, and drove out of the village......
Sawyer stood far away and looked at the tavern, and when he saw Marquis Will, he had a complicated expression on his face, a little hesitant and painful.
Thinking of what Lenny said last night after finding him, I couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
Today is the day when the reserve force goes to report to the Guards, and they will be officially incorporated into the Guards and go out with the team, but when they think of the recent tragic situation of the Guards, the battle has been reduced by more than one-third, and in this case, they have also arrested adventurers everywhere, and more than 40 rear generals have been captured and executed, which has caused a huge sensation in Xiluo Village.
This triggered a series of reactions, and the adventurers are now extremely resistant and hostile to the Guards, and few members of the Demon Slayer have joined the Guards, and they are all waiting and seeing. And the Three White Kings Medicine Store is powerful, and as soon as it comes, it forces Lord Xia Rui to give up the best position, although its agent Marquis Lemon suddenly went crazy, but the medicine store is still operating normally, listening to Lanny, Marquis Will will soon become the new agent of the Three White Kings Medicine Store in the city-state of Kurgea, when the time comes, Marquis Will wants money and money, and he wants people, and it can really be said that the money power is about to show his ambitions.
Thinking of what Lenny had dissected for him last night and repeatedly encouraging himself to join the army of the Marquis of Will, Sawyer couldn't help but hesitate, after all, he was a child of Lord Xia Rui, and the demon team and reserves in Xiluo Village were also supported by Lord Xia Rui. It is a real betrayal, and it will never be forgiven.
And the most important point is, Lanxi. Whenever he secretly saw her, Sawyer was in great pain, he had always had a crush on Lan Xi, even if Lan Xi had become the woman of the Marquis of Will, he had always loved her.
If I get as far away from her as possible, maybe I'll be free, and after a long time I'll forget her, but... I don't want to do that, I never want to forget her, she's the woman I love the most.
So what am I going to do? If I don't want to forget her, I can only be by her side at all times, so that I don't have to hide in the dark and secretly watch her, but ...... Didn't she feel her heart dripping blood when she put her arms around the Marquis of Will affectionately, and even rushed out to challenge him......
Since you love her, you have to make her happy, she is really happy with the Marquis of Will, and she is also a good match, and you are not even a knight now, how can you make her happy? Do you have a knighthood, do you have a territory, do you have gold coins...... If you really love her, then protect her, and you will be happy for her when you see her happy.
It seemed that two different voices were arguing in Sawyer's head, which made him have a splitting headache, and he couldn't stand it anymore, so he heard him yell angrily: "Stop arguing, I know what I should do." ”
Although the carriage had already gone far away, there were many onlookers on the street, whispering their latest news. What father-daughter adultery is unethical, what Marquis Lemont himself has epilepsy, and he was stimulated in his early years, etc.
was discussing lively, and suddenly shouted angrily behind him: "Don't make noise......"
The onlookers were stunned and looked back, and saw that it was a young man who was striding away with an angry face.
These people were stunned for a moment, and then suddenly broke out, and shouted and cursed:
"Who the are you, dare to yell loudly at Lao Tzu......"
"Little bunny, who did you just yell at? Try another one?"
“......”
Seeing that he had inadvertently caused the anger of the crowd, Soya knew that it was not good and hurriedly ran away and chased after the Marquis of Will in front.
......
"Oh, are you really willing to be my servant?" At the south gate of the camp, Marquis Will looked calmly in front of him with his hands behind his back, only to see Sawyer kneeling down on one knee and striking his left chest with his hand, and said:
"Dear Marquis Will, I, Sawyer, am truly willing to be your servant, please grant permission. ”
Will looked at him with a smile and said, "It was Lanny who went to find you last night, but I heard that you haven't been promoted to knight yet, although I can accept your sincerity, but your performance still needs my approval...... Well, you join the army first, and if you're brave enough, I can give you a rite of advancement on the battlefield, a glory that every warrior dreams of. ”
Sawyer immediately nodded happily, on the blood-stained battlefield, there were orc corpses everywhere, and the real warrior was born on the battlefield, surrounded by his comrades in the middle of the blessing, and he was awarded the title of knight, such a dream seems to be not only fantasized by Otah, but even Sawyer was excited at this moment.
Marquis Will smiled even softer when he saw his expression, nodded and said, "Come with me." ”
It didn't take long for Sawyer to change his armor, and as Marquis Will and nearly 10,000 sergeants walked towards the north gate, the new camp could be built and garrisoned today.
North gate of the camp
Orta was talking to some of the reserve teenagers, such as Ellie and Tetsuo, who had come to report on joining the Guard. But the Guards will not have a major mission in the next few days, the reason is that the sergeants are too badly injured and need to recuperate, and they will only send a few complete squads to hunt freely, and Ota is one of the leaders who came to select the team members.
Marquis Will's army marched all the way to the lakeside camp after leaving the north gate, and when Will, who was walking last, came to the north gate, he glanced at the scattered guards sergeants, some basking in the sun on crutches, and some hanging their arms around the mountains, all of them grinning and disheveled, and the corners of his mouth were very disdainful and chuckled.
"Sawyer, how are you ...... With him?" Ellie is an archer, and her eyes are extremely sharp, and she was stunned for a moment when she saw Sawyer walking behind, and then asked.
Ota and Iron Man also looked over.
Sawyer's face turned red at first, and then he whispered: "I have my ......" but before he finished speaking, he saw Marquis Will stop and look over, Sawyer immediately closed his mouth tightly, and followed with a few steps.
Looking at Sawyer's back, several people fell silent.
After a while, Elle suddenly snorted and said, "He is greedy for wealth, what else can he say?"
Tetsuo was silent for a while and then whispered to Otta: "Lenny also looked for me, but I didn't agree, I always felt that it was spineless to do so, the most important thing is ......" Tetsuo didn't continue, but his eyes looked at Ellie and fell on her back.
Ota nodded slightly, and after glancing at Iron Man's burning gaze, his heart moved, and he thought to himself, "If my sister Ellie can be with Iron Man, it may be a very good result." ”
After all, he has too much secrets, and he has recently felt some abnormal signs, which are likely to be the negative effects of the magic beads, if these hidden dangers cannot be eradicated, it is impossible for him to protect Elle and his relatives for a long time, and he is afraid that he will hurt his relatives if he is not controlled, and if there is really such a day, Ota will have the heart to commit suicide.
Just when Sawyer was walking with his head bored and feeling uncomfortable, he suddenly heard Marquis Will ask on the side:
"Do you remember when Lanny was looking for you last night?"
Sawyer pondered for a moment and replied, "When he found me, the tavern was at its busiest, around nine or ten o'clock, is there anything wrong with that, my lord." ”
Marquis Will nodded, and then asked casually, "You went back late last night, did you see anything strange?"
Sawyer remembered that after Lanny left last night, he had been hesitant and helpless, and as an orphan, his personality was a little arrogant, and he had no friends to talk to and solve his doubts, so he could only walk around by the river.
When he shivered from the cold of late autumn, he realized that the night was already deep and the sky was about to break, and it was the darkest time of the day.
When he entered the village and walked to the door, he suddenly heard a roar that did not look like a human being: "I will strangle you." ”
Soya, whose scalp was numb, suddenly turned around, and when he looked in the direction of the tavern where the voice came, he seemed to see a faint figure disappear in a slight flash, which was staggeringly fast.
Sawyer thought he was dazzled, and there was no figure behind him rubbing his eyes, but a roar of anger came over in a real way.
At this time, being asked by Marquis Will like this, Soyer suddenly hesitated a little, could it be that Marquis Lemmon suddenly went crazy last night, someone really did it secretly? But that speed is too fast, is that the speed that humans should have, this is unlikely.
But...... If you want to talk about that shadow, it seems to be really familiar in a trance, let me think... Think about it... By the way, this shadow is somewhat similar to Otta.
"Why, do you remember anything unusual?" the Marquis of Will thought back to him, but after waiting for a while, he urged impatiently.
Sawyer opened his mouth, but then immediately shook his head and said, "Lord Will, I just thought about it carefully, but I'm sorry, I didn't find anything out of the ordinary. ”
