Chapter 18: Apprehension
Looking at everything in front of him, "What's going on?" Chriss, a little confused. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although there were some uncertain conjectures, Chris quickly put them behind him.
"Let's go into town!"
The group left the carriage in the woods and walked with Chris to the town of Kib.
"My lord, do you need me to tell me?" Tlarka asked softly.
"It's just going home," Chriss, glancing at him, "don't make it so exaggerated." ”
"Yes, sir!"
In front of the city gate, following the bustling crowd, Tlaka still squeezed to the front, took out the crest of the Lorraine family and the guards guarding the gate and said a few words, and then pulled a few horses.
Chris couldn't help but shake his head.
Traca still didn't understand what he meant, he just wanted to walk back slowly, looking at the familiar scenes along the way.
But in the end, he got on his horse and refused the request of the guards to send someone to escort him, these guards should have been just his father's recruits, and they didn't know Chris's appearance, and there was nothing special about looking at Chris's expression.
So, with the exception of Kacuri and Zaatari who rode together, the rest of the people rode slowly towards the city on their own horses.
The city lord's mansion is located in the southwest corner of Kibu Town, on the way to pass through the commercial street, the city defense office, the mercenary union, and the aristocratic quarter, here the most frequent are mercenaries, some on horseback, some on foot, three by two is extremely common, therefore, the city defense here is also more than other cities, they are interspersed in the city, vigilantly pay attention to the security of the city.
Unlike the imperial capital, all the armed forces in Kibu Town are all Darnell's soldiers, and those who can enter the city guard are all veterans who are extremely trusted by Darnell, so Chriss was quickly recognized, and then helplessly, Klees was surrounded by a large group of knights, and a group of more than thirty people marched towards the city lord's mansion.
Darnell's army was extremely disciplined and powerful, and these troops were almost equal to his private soldiers, so that, despite Chris's repeated refusals, they only put Chris's safety first at this time, and Chriss had nothing to say about this, after all, they were also heartily commendable.
But in this way, the group was very conspicuous, and soon someone saw Chris, and then, mercenaries poured out from all corners, and some people began to call Chris's name, and gradually became more and more neat.
"Chris
"Chris
"Chris
The knights who were guarding Chris were also honored, but they still did not dare to relax their vigilance, and their eyes constantly scanned the crowd, for fear that someone would fish in troubled waters and take the opportunity to make trouble.
However, they were obviously overly worried, and when they looked at it, there was only fanaticism and adoration in the eyes of the mercenaries, and they all followed Chris's group slowly and in an orderly manner, just shouting Chris's name from a distance, but none of them rushed forward.
Chris nodded and smiled at the crowd, and Pandis's whisper came from beside him, "It's like going back to that time." ”
Chris knew when she was talking about it, and her eyes couldn't help but glow with memory.
Then, inevitably, I thought of Dilan again, and then remembered Dilan's sad and moving face that night, his heart felt like he had been hammered hard, and the smile on his face couldn't help but disappear, and he sighed secretly.
In front of the City Lord's Mansion, Darnell and his wife watched quietly as Chris approached.
The mercenaries had dispersed, and the city guards had saluted Chriss.
Darnell did not change much, the physical fitness of the senior profession was very prominent in him, and the mother of his wife, Chris, who stood beside him, was much older, and a few strands of gray hair appeared in the middle of his eyes.
Chris knelt down on one knee in front of them: "Father and mother, I am back." ”
"Hurry up!" Darnell's deep voice rang out.
Chris stood up.
It's only been more than a year, and Chris's height has surpassed Darnell, but Darnell didn't care, looked at his son carefully, a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes, patted Chris's arm, and said with satisfaction: "Very good." ”
Chris turned to his mother, who had tears in her eyes and couldn't help but hug him and sobbed softly. Chris was also moved in his heart and reciprocated her.
"Tell us about your friends. Darnell said.
Mother let go of her hand, and Chris turned and beckoned to Pandis, who walked up nervously, barely daring to look up, blushing and heartbeat, and her voice trembling slightly: "Pandis Lynch has seen Lord Darnell and Lady Lorraine!"
Darnell understood when he saw it, he glanced at Chris, smiled slightly, and his mother replied meaningfully: "Thank you for taking care of Khris these days!"
"Yes, thank you!" Darnell smiled.
"Thank you, Lord and Madame, Pandis is ashamed. ”
Pandis whispered.
Chrissy said to Darnell, "She's Stiena and a good friend of mine!"
Although Stiana's face was calm, her fingers were clenched tightly before she came up, and it was obvious that she was also very nervous, and she stepped forward to salute: "Hello to Lord and Madame!"
"Well, thank you for taking care of my naughty son. Darnell was delighted.
Then, Kakuri took Zatari to Danell and knelt down: "Kakuri and Zaatari say hello to Lord and Madame!"
"I've heard Chris talk about you, get up," said Darnell, "and you'll be part of House Lorraine." ”
"Thank you, sir, ma'am. The two siblings were immediately relieved.
The crowd walked towards the house.
"Where's Erin? isn't she?" Chriss, a little strangely.
"Oh, she," replied the mother, "she's in a drawing class, and she didn't know you would be back to-day." ”
"Oh!" Chrisse nodded, feeling a little disappointed in his heart, and couldn't help but think of the elementary school students in his previous life, "It's almost dinner time now, does she have to go to school so late every day?"
"Yes, but it's time to finish class. Darnell said, he turned to the maid standing aside, "You go and see, if the class is not over, let Lady Grentia finish today." ”
The maid bowed and said, "Yes, my lord!"
"Lady Grentia?" asked Chris.
"Oh, this is a new painting teacher hired last year," said Darnell, "the original Miss Hess has returned to her hometown, and before leaving, she recommended the current Lady Grentia, and after only a few months of teaching Erin, Irene's drawing skills have improved a lot. ”
Chris nodded. (To be continued.) )
