Chapter 129: Hurry
The shabby carriages crowded the bustling streets of the bustling city of Ferry City, unassuming, slow, stop-and-go, mostly waiting for the pedestrians in front of them to leave before proceeding, and even if the occasional pedestrians gave way, most of them were afraid that the dusty carriage would stain their clothes; there was no respect, much less fear, and in the crowd it was very unsightly except to provoke disgust. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
The young groom in the carriage looked at the crowd in front of the carriage, as if he realized that there was not enough space for the carriage to squeeze through the square, so he gave up for the time being, and simply stopped where he was, and kept looking at the half-naked statue from afar, and he sat calmly and quietly in the carriage, waiting.
As a result, people came and went, crowds of people, and he became independent.
"Is spring really the season for estrus?"
A young and crisp female voice suddenly broke the quiet atmosphere.
Because if you follow the young groom's line of sight to the statue, it is easy to find that his daze is completely focused on the statue ****'s breasts, which is not something that the little girl next to the groom who is not in a good mental state can endure, even if the exhaustion of the whole 7 days of running makes her feel difficult to speak, but she still can't contain the desire for ridicule in her heart.
The young groom smiled at her, warm and doting, and did not speak.
"How much does the goddess of fate hate me to let me have a knight like you, little Augustus, I have to tell you seriously, your master Queen Terina is very disappointed in you, as a knight, you are weak, not to mention the queen who guards you, and even your queen has to help you as a knight in many cases; What's even more hateful is that you can't see a beautiful and charming lady sitting next to you? Always look at the stone with your **** eyes, is it possible that a woman carved out of a stone is more attractive than the living lady next to you?"
The little girl became more and more indignant, roaring, and her spirit gradually recovered.
The young groom, Augustus, who had left the moor, finally set his eyes on what she called the 'Lady of Life' beside him, and then his eyes rested on her flat chest, and his face was full of amusement.
Don't talk to him anymore.
Facing his teasing eyes, the little girl suddenly went crazy: "Augustus, I'm going to pump out your damn soul!"
......
The carriage finally moved slowly again, crowded in the crowd, and Augustus, who had already stepped out of the carriage and walked with the reins, explained to her who was still sitting in the carriage in order to appease the irritability of little Lori: " I just remembered the first time I came to Ferry City, and I don't know why, I suddenly realized that if I didn't leave the wasteland, I'm afraid I would really be satisfied with what I had achieved so far in the wasteland, and then I would feel that I was already the king of the wasteland, and nothing could threaten me anymore, but now, when I came to the empire again and came to Ferry City, I suddenly felt a deep sense of crisis, and although I couldn't be sure where this sense of crisis came from, it made me very clear that in the Empire, on this continent, I was nothing, and this sudden feeling was terribleIt seems that all of a sudden I have become the poor bastard who has nothing again. β
"Humans are always so easy to get caught up in what they've achieved, then sink and then get lost. β
"But aren't humans also the most lustful creatures, how can they easily indulge in past achievements?"
Therefore, I am afraid that even God cannot understand the contradictory and complex thoughts of human beings. β
This reminds me of the saying that when humans think, God laughs. β
"Is it a wry smile?"
It was in this potentially pointless conversation that the carriage finally arrived at the Baron's estate, which once belonged to Obila and now to Rudolph.
Rudolph, who had been waiting in front of the manor, carefully led Augustus and Terina to the living room of the manor, perceiving the dust servants on the two of them, Rudolph asked in a low voice whether Augustus bathed first or bathed after resting, and got the latter answer, because it was not yet meal time, he instructed the servants of the manor to prepare snacks and tea, and then in the living room, watching Augustus who was sitting on the sofa resting with a smile and fed a piece of snack to the mouth of the inexplicable strange little girl, Baron Rudolph, who was standing respectfully on the side, couldn't help but have a complicated expression, full of emotionγ
Of course, he knew the pattern of the wasteland today.
It was completely unbelievable that Augustus, his young count, had come this far in just a few months.
Especially the gentle smile on Augustus's face at this time made it even more difficult to believe that such a seemingly gentle young man had actually done what many people in the wasteland wanted to do but could not, was he really smarter and stronger than those people? Rudolph didn't know, but he knew that he didn't need to know, he just needed to know that he had to be in awe and respect for the young man in front of him.
He had deeply experienced the inscrutable skill of this young man.
"By the way, Baron, is there still no news about Obirah?"
As if he had finally noticed the owner of the manor, his servant, Augustus, ignored the Terina beside him, and turned to look at Baron Rudolph, who lived a better life in the Empire, and was old and not old.
Rudolph hurriedly bowed down and shook his head apprehensively.
Augustus frowned slightly, and when he mentioned his Uncle Obilla, he still couldn't figure out what reason Obilla had to disappear, was it just because Obilla knew very well the unknown outcome he might face? On the surface, this may be a sufficient reason, but Augustus finds it hard to believe that a nobleman would put down his title of nobility and completely integrate into the ordinary people of the empire, because the profession of nobility is addictive, and once you enter the circle of nobles, you will never be able to get out of it for the rest of your life, so in this case, if you don't give up his nobility, how can Obila be heard from again?
How did he get out of the Alfred shadow?
Augustus, who frowned and pondered, was completely subconsciously considering, but he didn't know that his subconscious frown had already made Rudolph more and more worried.
Later, Rudolph, who had a wealth of life experience and knew very well that he had made a mistake in the matter of Obila, hurriedly diverted Augustus's attention and said softly: " By the way, my lord, there is one more thing, I have gradually revealed my identity according to your instructions, and many people in Ferry City now know that I am from the wasteland, and I am Alfred's servant, but although no one has shown an extremely repulsive attitude towards me on the surface, after spending a lot of money, I still have not been able to integrate into the real inner circle of Ferry City, and I have only initially established friendships with some peripheral nobles, and it is still a fragile friendship. β
Using a small mistake to cover up a big mistake is a very standard approach.
Augustus would not have debunked this unclever little trick of Baron Rudolph, and he put aside the matter of Obila for the time being, and said: " It doesn't matter, just take it slowly, if the inner circle of Ferry City is really so easy to integrate, and it is really so easy to accept the wasteland, I'm afraid that Ferry City has long been tied to the wasteland, as for the friendship between you and the small nobles on the periphery, don't feel sorry for the gold, you have to continue to maintain it, although we don't expect them to contribute substantial help to us in the future, but at least we have to do it, when we do things in Ferry City, they will not secretly sabotage. β
Little people, especially those with a little bit of identity rights, are often the most headaches, and Augustus understood this truth in his previous life.
It was never known why the Earl had let him reveal his identity, but Rudolph, who must have complied with Augustus's orders, nodded slightly.
Now that he had turned to his work, Rudolph asked again: "Bishop Vincennes, when do you think we will arrange a meeting?"
Bishop Vincennes.
This is one of the confidants of the Bishop of Missal, and the only person who connects Katieenny to escort the gold mines to the empire, Alfred and his long-term cooperation, of course, will also establish a friendship that seems to be strong on the surface, although this friendship is also established through gold, but Augustus, who came to the city of Ferry, will definitely meet and communicate with the confidant of the Bishop of Missal.
He thought for a moment and said casually, "It's arranged for tomorrow." β
Rudolph bowed down, and then, as if suddenly remembering something, he took a letter from his pocket, handed it to Augustus, and took a step back: "This is the letter I just received today from the imperial capital, about Miss Elizabeth. β
Augustus took it apart.
Then his expression suddenly became gloomy.
He had just said that he would let Rudolph arrange a meeting with Bishop Vincennes tomorrow, he got up directly, stretched out his hand to Terina, and said in a deep voice: "We have to hurry as soon as possible." β
Rudolph, who had no idea of the contents of the letter, was stunned.
But Augustus, who had stood up, was obviously really going on his way, and he led Terina, who had risen with him, albeit reluctantly, to the door of the manor, and did not explain anything to Rudolph, nor to warm the sofa on which he had sitting, but just ate a random snack, and set out on the journey again.
Until Augustus sat back in the carriage, Rudolph could not react.
......
"You liar, when you pass through Donald's territory, you say you'll rest in Donald's Nile, but you don't, and when you get to Sauron, you say we'll rest in the small city of Albasan, but you only stay for half a day and then you still travel overnight, and then you talk about Ferry City, and you'll definitely let me rest, and now? Augustus, not only will I hate you, but even the half of the cheese I didn't have time to eat will hate you. She no longer had the strength to roar at Augustus, and when she stepped into the carriage, Queen Terina pretended to be weak and said aggrievedly.
Augustus smiled apologetically, handed the letter to Terina, he waved his whip with great skill, drove the carriage, and said: "The heir of the Clark family in the letter has been following Elizabeth for 9 days, I don't know why this heir to the real power earl is so patient, it may be Sophia's influence? Besides, I'm afraid you know better than I know that the patience of the human nobles is even inferior to you when it comes to such a dirty bullying of the weak. β
Terina, who was flipping through the letters, did not speak, nor did she bother to protest Augustus's patient 'slander' against her.
"In the next city, I will change to a carriage that is as comfortable as possible and guarantees your rest. β
Terina, who had just finished reading the letter, quietly raised her head, then she wrinkled her little nose and said, "Forget it, hypocritical little Augustus, anyway, you useless servant knight has already been put on the table." β
"However, I am really looking forward to what kind of great surprise your heretic will bring to this decaying empire when he arrives in the imperial capital. (To be continued.)
