Chapter 10: Retreat and Celebration
The black whirlwind was putting on a posture of worrying about the country and the people, when suddenly a black and flickering object flew down from the roof and fell at his feet, startling him when he landed, and picked up two board axes with lightning speed and the jingle of the bell, and glared and shouted: "Who is coming?"

Mira was stunned by Alice's blow, lying on the ground for a long time unable to struggle, looking up, the cold blade of the plate axe was only 0.01 cm away from his eyebrows, and hurriedly shouted: "Hero ......" suddenly said in mid-air: "Dog thief, take your life." Alice's dagger stabbed at the Black Whirlwind's face like snow.
After a few rounds of coming and going, Alice attacked urgently, the black whirlwind was firmly sealed, and the dazzling sword light almost dazzled the eyes of the spectators, and several robbers shouted: "Leave the woman alone, catch this man first." When Mira heard this, she hurriedly rolled on the spot a few times and rolled into the crowd of onlookers.
Alice became more and more frightened the more she fought, this black whirlwind looked rude and uncivilized, a pair of plate axes were impenetrable, and when she was practicing at home, she met a senior swordsman or something, and she also killed the other party in a few strokes and admitted defeat, so she has always had a very high opinion of herself and never put others in her eyes. She didn't expect that those opponents would either look at her grandmother's face, or they would be too lazy to play house games with this little girl, how could anyone really take it seriously.
Mira didn't have time to care about Alice's life or death, let alone resentment that she had just pushed herself off the roof, and he rolled around in the crowd, burrowing into the crotches of many people, causing a lot of screaming. Finally, he reached an open place, and as soon as he stood up straight, he was tapped on the shoulder, and when he looked back, he saw a robber with a full face looking at him with a smile.
This guy has not been looked down upon in the bandit world because of his small brain, and now he is waiting for the rabbit to catch a living thing, which can be regarded as the green smoke coming from the ancestral grave. He was thinking that he might be able to be appreciated by the leader and become a small leader after he went back and died of all his might, when he suddenly felt that his shoulder was also patted, and when he looked back, a thin skeleton was patting himself affectionately, and beckoned: "Hi, Bebby." The robber was immediately frightened, screaming hell as he fled into the crowd.
After a fierce fight, the black whirlwind had roughly figured out Alice's routine, and the axe in his hand began to attack and defend, and gradually Alice couldn't get close to him. But the black whirlwind is also suffering now, and he has long seen that although Alice's moves are immature, a long cyan trajectory is often dragged between the swings of the short sword, which is clearly the prototype of the wind fighting spirit. At this age, he can master the entrance to the Dou Qi, and if he doesn't have one or two Titled Sword Saints standing behind this little girl, Black Whirlwind will not believe it.
The black whirlwind is getting smoother and smoother, but his face is getting more and more bitter, bandits are originally a high-risk industry, if he offends a sword master, he really loses his head and doesn't know what's going on. Although the little girl in front of him has obviously lost his strength, he doesn't dare to make a heavy hand anyway, and now what he wants to do most is to find a chair for Alice to sit down, and then respectfully serve a cup of hot tea to himself, and call Grandma You can do whatever you want, I just came out casually to brush up a copy and rob it, I really can't afford to provoke an elite boss like you.
No matter how reluctant Black Whirlwind was in his heart, there were dozens of his younger brothers watching it, cheering and applauding everything, and some of them happily analyzed the battle situation for their companions. If he admits defeat now, he will ensure that his prestige in the thief group will plummet in the future, and few people will listen to him anymore, but let him split Alice in half with an axe, there are thousands of ways to commit suicide, there is no need to choose such a difficult one as the Juggernaut level.
While he was struggling, a robber ran in from outside the wall, and said loudly: "Big leader, the military division has sent a signal that a squadron of patrol cavalry is coming this way, and he wants us to retreat quickly. The black whirlwind was relieved, and forced Alice away with a few axes in a row, and shouted: "Find someone to go to the back to see, has the rich man's house been knocked down, and he hasn't come back after going for so long, so he is probably stealing private goods again." ā
As soon as he finished speaking, a large group of robbers who had lost their armor poured out from the direction of Houzhuang, shouting as they ran: "The big leader is not good, they have come with very powerful reinforcements, we really can't beat them." Mila followed their gesture and looked back, saw the leopard's head just now, saw the fat man from yesterday, and saw one-eyed and the nurse? Mila was overjoyed, stood on tiptoe and waved desperately: "Hey, I'm here, I'm here." None of the fellows looked at him, but shouted at Alice, "Miss, I found you, where did you go?"
Before Alice could speak, Black Whirlwind had already seen that there were at least two or three Sword Saint heirs over there, and he rolled his eyes and began to scream: "Wow, you are still looking for a helper, you are not a good man to bully more than you can." Lesser ones, let's get out first. With a greeting, the robbers immediately scattered and ran out one by one along the wall, leaving only the cheers of the people behind them.
At the celebration feast, in order to thank Mira and the others for driving out the robbers and saving the manor, Lord Justin announces that Lily will be restored to her free body and gives Rand a new carriage. All of them were happy, everyone was boasting about how they had fought hard against the robbers in the face of danger, and finally ushered in the final victory, and even the leopard head swore to the sky that if it were not for the exhaustion of the two Rand who had escaped last night, they would never have let this class have a chance to take advantage of it.
Mira hadn't attended such a banquet for a while since she left the imperial capital, and he sang and danced to melodious music, attracting an unknown number of peasant girls' autumn spinach. However, Mira was a noble man, a man detached from the lower tastes, and after drinking the seventh cup of ale he finally broke free from the pull of the warblers and swallows, and fled under the grape trellises.
On a night like this, at a dinner party like this, the sleeping hormones seemed to be dancing to the music, and it had not been long before Mira had already met a number of young men and women hiding behind vines. He embarrassedly said sorry to each pair of wild mandarin ducks, and gradually went deeper and deeper, and suddenly, he heard a faint cry.
Pulling aside the weeping grapes, Mira saw Alice sitting alone on the corridor weeping, and Mira asked strangely, "Everyone is so happy, why are you crying?
Alice said angrily, "Don't worry about it." Mira looked up and grinned, "How can you not care? Alice's eyebrows immediately rose: "You protect me, you can't even take my sword, and when you see that the robbers only have the ability to run away and beg for mercy, you dare to say that I am the object of your protection." ā
Mira hurriedly waved her hand: "Okay, okay, it's you who protect me, I don't have to fight with you for this." By the way, why are you crying?"
Alice sobbed, "You have all become heroes, but I can't even clean up a robber, and I will be told by the robbers that I am not a good man for bullying more and less." This is my first real joust, and I was ruined by you, woo woo. ā
Mira suddenly realized: "So you are struggling with this, in fact, you are also a hero, if it weren't for you, Rand would probably still be hanging on the flagpole now, and you have also successfully dragged the bandit leader, so that he has no time to hurt the people." What is that saying, although you didn't win him, he didn't win you either, although you are short, but you are tall, although you are ugly, but you want to be beautiful. ā
Alice's face was already smiling, and when she heard the last few words, she suddenly burst into a rage: "You bastard, you dare to say that I am ugly, I must kill you." ā
Due to Mira's drunken gaffe, Alice has been chasing him with all her might for several days, and seeing Mira being chased by the little girl, the wolf is rushing, and the ghost is crying wolf, several teammates have shown a knowing smile: "It's good to be young." ā
The sad journey finally came to an end in Liu'an Village, seeing Alice smiling and throwing herself into her aunt's arms, Mira burst into tears, and Alice's aunt was also moved: "This child is really sincere, and the road has only been together for a few days is so inseparable, and it seems that he is also a person who values feelings." ā
Coming out of Liu'an Village, Mira's proposal to go directly back to Minsk City was unanimously opposed by everyone, and One-Eye pointed out that he could go directly to the mercenary union in Stilwell City to hand in the task, and the little sparrow shouted happily that the fur shop in Stilwell City was on a year-end promotion, seven percent off, and when asked about foodies, Swo said with a simple face: "I heard that there is a kind of colorful guinea fowl in Stilwell City, which has thin skin and crispy flesh after being stewed, and I like it." ā
Stilwell City is the capital of Stilly Province, naturally not comparable to a small city like Minsk, with tall walls, dense arrow stacks, and mighty city guards, even the entrance tax requires fifty copper coins, which makes Mira grin in distress.
At the door of the mercenary union, there was a city guard squad leader wearing a bright red cloak, and when he saw Mira and the others coming, he shouted: "Stop, what are you doing?" Mira and One-Eye glanced at each other, and suddenly felt that the situation was not good, but they also had to bite the bullet and say: "I'm here to hand in the task." ā
"The head of the trade union here is suspected of being a bandit, and he has been arrested by the city lord, and now he needs to send someone over again, so you can hand in the task in a few days." ā
Mira promised to leave, and it seemed that he had to go back to Minsk to talk about it, but before he could turn around, the team leader spoke again: "According to the city lord's wartime assembly order, all the mercenaries in the city have been immediately requisitioned, and they will immediately report to the military camp in the east of the city and wait for the assignment of tasks." With his order, more than a dozen heavily armed city guards appeared from the alley next to him, and the regiment surrounded Mira and the others, as if they were worried that they would run away.
