050. Doctor Blackmouth
"After a year of traveling, I heard that Rome was about to hold the Great Messa, and as a knight could not miss such a feat, I changed my course and went south from the Franks, giving up the opportunity to join the Emperor's Guard, and walked for about a month, and met 'her' convoy on the way.
She!
At first we walked together, but there was no contact, the old nobleman forced her to put on a veil and control her movements at all times, and one day, when it was raining heavily and the carriage was stuck in the mud, I came to help and saw such a beautiful face, her skin as white as milk......
After that day, I had been looking for an opportunity to see this lady again, but I had no chance, until yesterday, when I was in Rome, I was on the street, and suddenly saw her being chased by my own subordinates, so I stepped forward to stop her......"
Hearing this, combined with the Eastern European legend from Münster's mouth, Bran combined the three and deduced the whole context.
Bran hears that because the princess of Alain is too beautiful, she is left in her territory by her fiancé (Münster) to avoid being robbed by other members of the opposite sex.
But the princess of Alain was probably unwilling to do so, and she couldn't escape, so she took advantage of this trip to Rome and offered to go with her, and after arriving in Rome, she escaped by some means.
But he was soon discovered, and he met Donde's help again.
The two fled together, but the curfew could not leave Rome, so they waited all night, but they were found in the tavern, and the princess of Alain jumped out of the window, and her whereabouts were unknown......
Almost. Bran said in his heart.
"Thanks for the explanation, Heard is coming in at this time." Bran explained a few words, and asked Don De to recuperate.
Staying behind and still daydreaming, Don thought that Bran would help him find a beauty, and at the same time he was jealous in his heart, this kid is so handsome, will he also want to get involved in beauty?
Don De recuperated from his wounds for a few days, but did not see the beauty of the beauty, so he left on his own, and Bran did not see him again until many years later.
And his status has also risen a lot, becoming a baron of a country.
Bran didn't know that Don De had thought about such a thing at this time, he only felt that he had bumped into a treasure, but he didn't know if he could succeed in opening it.
The woman who led the chaos of the Three Kingdoms (Bohemia, the Slavic Union in Poland, Bavaria) must be found and held in her hands.
Since Münster also has his own friendships in Rome, he will definitely go to others for help, this matter cannot be concealed, and he must fight quickly!
Bran eventually recruited a contemporary, Hoffmann, who, as a former gentleman, had contact with many of Rome's dark alleys and beneath the ground. There is a certain strength.
And as the heir to the principality of the fifth order, it will be of great value in the future.
Together, the two of them sent out the manpower they could muster, without telling their subordinates who they were looking for, and only sketched a general appearance.
So after a night, there was no clue, and at the same time, Bran also heard several groups of people inquiring about the princess of Alain.
Bran and Hoffman spread out the map to discuss when they were free, and Bran's eyes suddenly focused on a small black dot.
"Cankanla."
"Are you sure? This is the patient area! Those who are seriously ill are placed here (waiting to die). ”
"That's right, we even went to look for a brothel, assuming that she is really not hidden, she is safe at the moment, according to her foot strength, and she has to cover her face, it is very likely to come here, this piece is not allowed to enter or exit, the law and order is not good, and it is possible that she will be mixed in with a headscarf."
Hoffman hesitated for only a few seconds, although the place was very unclean, but he thought about the value of the princess...... To be able to teach a great nobleman, and even to sell her to Poland, is a great fortune.
Or it is also a great pleasure to conquer this princess with her own masculine charm......
He even brought it back to Austria and dedicated it to the Grand Duke of the family...... So, he was willing to go with Bran.
Unable to be blatant, the two of them each brought three subordinates who could be trusted, and Bran changed into the costume of "Doctor Bird's Beak".
The suit wore a hat on his head to prevent the stolen goods from falling into his hair, and his hands and feet were dressed in a wide black robe, which was made of thick cloth and coated with wax to avoid dirting his body, and a pointed mask on his face to completely cover his facial features.
The mask is fitted with a thin layer of glass to protect it from liquid sprays, and the protruding beak is stuffed with aromatic substances such as lemon balm, roses, camphor, myrrh and other precious incense.
However, this is the treatment only available to the plague physicians of the royal family, and most of the doctors stuffed with petal incense tablets.
Also known as the "Plague Doctors" or "Raven Doctors", they emerged more than a hundred years ago from the towns where epidemics were raging, and when the plague was at its peak for decades, they had the highest status, the equivalent of knights, and the ability to examine corpses at will.
Rome is the closest place to the Father, the city of God on earth, which naturally treats the sick differently from other towns, and has the largest number of physicians.
Many priests today have medical knowledge, treating the sick during the day and praying to the Lord at night. Healing the sick and saving people can better maintain their prestige.
Due to the scarcity of plague doctors, many outlaws often use their lives as extortion cities.
So it's normal for Bran and Hoffman to have so many people as assistants to protect them.
Bran was holding a wooden cane in his hand, not for walking, but to avoid contact with the source of pollution, to touch places that were difficult to touch.
In the early days, it was also popular to beat the sick, when it was a divine punishment for people to suffer from a vicious disease, and through scourging, salvation could be obtained from original sin.
Bran took Hilde with him, along with two members of the mercenary who had been protecting him since entering Rome.
After breakfast, they immediately went to Kankanla with Hoffman, and since they had taken leave of absence from the Holy See the day before, they both had time to look for them themselves by tomorrow morning.
The place is far from the water source, and the terrain is close to the mountains, and if the sick die, they are burned in the mountain graves.
If you have a bad disease and you can't find the cause of it, and you are considered to be at risk of infection, you are likely to be sent here.
The passage to Kankanla was only soldiers, patients, worshippers, and doctors, so there were hardly any people on the way.
Make your way through two easy roadside levels – not even levels.
Those who come do not refuse, there is no entry fee, but when you go out, you must verify your identity and whether you are running away for the patient.
Bran's doctor's outfit allowed him to be courtesy at two levels.
The caretaker at the first checkpoint even pleaded with Bran.
"Sir, I have a cousin in there, if there is a cure for him, please help him more."
For non-aristocratic high-level professionals, they are called sir.
Bran pressed the ground, sounding like a middle-aged man, and let out a "good".
The checkpoint is also a very small village, with some poultry walking around the ground, and a few vegetable gardens have been carved out, so there is some fresh food.
Bran took the watchman's egg, and the shadow grew, and at about three o'clock in the afternoon he entered the city of Rome, where it was most difficult to get close to the light.
Close to the mountains, the climate is cooler.
Bran finally didn't feel the stuffiness of his clothes.
