Chapter 55: Breaking the Siege

The soldiers defending the city and the pickets pushed each other and scolded each other loudly. These old and coarse people are not highly educated, and there is nothing new in scolding, and there are vulgar words such as "I × " and "× your mother" back and forth.

He Jinshui listened to it with relish at first, but he became impatient after coming a few more times. He pushed the crowd away and strode towards the center of the crowd. The soldiers only felt an incomparable force coming, their bodies staggered, and they were involuntarily squeezed out of a passage, and they were so stunned that they even forgot to quarrel.

He Jinshui strode in front of the city gate guard Patton, with a look of ecstasy on his face and an exaggerated expression, and shouted loudly: "Congratulations, congratulations, my lord! With a little trickery, the lord forced the snake demon to show its original form; It can be described as a brilliant achievement. Having such a wise and brave person as an adult sitting at the city gate is really a blessing for the people of our Winterless Castle!"

Alihan and Lance understood and said loudly, "Congratulations, congratulations!" The voice spread far away, and more and more people joined the shouting procession, which made the faces of the pickets change greatly.

People's hearts are long, and the scene where Barton desperately rescued the people regardless of his personal safety just now was seen by everyone, and they were naturally willing to stand up and help him speak.

Barton was moved, but he didn't show it directly. He scolded and squinted at the darkening official opposite him and said, "Charles, if you are still here to obstruct us from carrying out our official duties and delay the people from entering the city, causing unnecessary disturbances and dissatisfaction, you will be responsible for all the consequences!"

The other party snorted coldly, waved his hand and led his subordinates away in a huff.

Barton arranged for his subordinates to continue the investigation, turned around and hugged his fist at He Jinshui and said, "This brother, thank you for your righteous words, otherwise I would have been imprisoned!" said and stretched out his hand.

He Jinshui didn't appreciate it, and he didn't mean to shake hands with the other party at all. He shook his head and said, "I saved you because I saw that you were a man, regardless of your own safety, and tried to protect the people." In fact, I also saw the ugliness of you accepting bribes just now, and we are not all the way. ”

Patton's palm is not extended, nor is it closed. His face swelled like pig's liver, his eyes widened as he looked at the other party, and he bowed his head to leave. At this time, the little soldier behind Patton said angrily: "This big brother is so unreasonable, do you know why we care so much about money, because we have been deducted from military salaries for a long time, if we don't find a way to raise money ourselves, the whole family will starve to death!"

"Lyman, that's enough!" Barton raised his voice to stop the little soldier's complaints, and apologized to He Jinshui: "I'm sorry to make you laugh!

The little soldier behind him didn't seem to hear the order, but shouted even louder: "Brother Barton, you are too honest, so many brothers have been killed and injured during this time, and you have used your own money to post them! If you can't raise any more money, my mother will marry my sister to someone else, I don't want this!"

Barton was annoyed when he saw Lyman's sharp teeth and self-babbling, and he slapped him on the head to shut him up. At this time, a palm grabbed him and pulled him together, Barton was taken aback, and secretly said in his heart: This young man is so powerful!

He Jinshui clasped his hands into fists and bowed to Barton, and said to him in a sincere tone: "General Patton, it seems that I have a misunderstanding of you! I apologize to you, please forgive me for my recklessness." Patton was a rough man, not very good at words, he let out a long sigh and held He Jinshui's hands, but he didn't know what to say.

The little soldier Leman came up, he was not tall, his eyebrows were clear, he looked like a scholar, He Jinshui's words made him feel good, and hurriedly said to him: "This eldest brother, my family is by no means a corrupt official, all his money is donated to his injured brothers, and he can't even eat enough every day, my sister is still waiting for him to marry the door, it's really annoying!"

It turned out to be Barton's future brother-in-law, no wonder he was so bold, He Jinshui smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and said to Barton: "What happened recently, can you tell me about it?"

Barton nodded and said, "The newly appointed Archon is in cahoots with a number of important officials in order to take the place of the City Lord. He's been meddling in the affairs of the army lately, but he's been getting a backlash from our city lords' diehards. Therefore, he constantly deducted military salaries and wanted to force us to comply. ”

"Then why don't you react directly upwards and fight for justice?" He Jinshui said puzzled. Lyman pouted and interjected: "We have been avenging, and the report has been written many times, but the people above are very ghostly, stepping on two boats, and neither side wants to offend, so there has been no explanation, and the matter has been delayed." ”

The more he spoke, the more angry he became, and his voice continued to rise: "Everyone was a soldier and ate imperial food, originally to support their families, but they have been complaining constantly since their income decreased. Especially in the past month, the demonic beasts in the dark forest have gone crazy and infiltrated the city in a crazy way, we have repelled them countless times, but there are more and more dead and injured brothers, and all the savings of Big Brother Barton have been used to comfort their families, how can they live like this?"

He Jinshui was in awe, and he couldn't imagine that the bearded man in front of him was actually such a good person with such a sense of justice. He pondered for a moment, clasped his fists again and saluted Patton, and said slowly: "General Patton!" "Call me Patton, what a bullshit general, but just a city guard." ”

"Okay, Barton, I wonder if you noticed it during the check-in?" Notice what?" asked Barton curiously.

"The body odor of the monster is very big, even if you pretend to be a human, you can't hide it. Therefore, if you can find some animals with sharp noses, such as earth dogs, and train them, you will soon be able to distinguish them from the crowd and kill them quickly to reduce the loss of men!

"Good idea, it makes so much damn sense!" Barton cried excitedly as he rubbed his hands together and turned back and said, "Lyman, give your puppies and we'll try to be patrol dogs!" Lyman reluctantly agreed.

Seeing that the night was getting dark, He Jinshui was about to take his leave, but Barton told him his address, and asked him to come over to greet him when he had time, and he nodded and agreed.

He Jinshui walked while pondering what had just happened, he suddenly came to his senses, no wonder the demonic beasts have been getting more and more fierce recently, presumably the Dongberian side has received the news of the appearance of the demon god fragments, and they are always paying attention to it.

No, this piece of fragment was protected by everyone risking their lives, and it must not be taken away. He made up his mind that when he saw Kaidon, he must remind them to pay attention, and not to capsize in the gutter.
