Chapter 30: Brasser's Few Messages
After hearing the news that Sirins was going to enter Laurendia from the main street of the city, Finnier immediately sent the newly recruited Gallop Four Woods to spread the luxurious red carpet all over the street. Celins will be here at noon punctually, and before that, Fernille and the soldiers of the Hades Legion have a lot to do, and they will be ready to welcome Celins' performance and the gifts they will show him. Therefore, even if the time has not yet come, the streets are already bustling with activity.
A group of noble ladies and so-called gentlemen walked up the street, looked at the city of Lao, which was decorated with glittering lights in every corner, and couldn't help laughing: "The king should have moved the capital here a long time ago, how prosperous it is here." β
"In the future, this place will be more prosperous, by the way, don't call it Laurendia, it's more elegant. A man dressed in fancy clothes said.
While they were chatting happily, Brother Kru was passing by with a cart of planks, he wanted to take this opportunity to do some work for the people of the Hades Legion, to earn more money to support his family, but recently, his wife had died of illness, and both he and Bakvi were heartbroken.
The iron cart was extremely heavy, his emaciated body did not have much strength, he was so tired that he was covered in sweat, and when he pushed here, he was so tired that he had no strength, and when he leaned over, one fell to the ground, and the iron cart also toppled over, and all the planks of the half cart fell to the ground, making a dry crashing sound, and the beautiful woman standing next to him was so frightened that she took a few steps back.
She stepped aside with one hand on her chest, and the man beside her, seeing the situation, hurriedly stepped forward to comfort the woman, and yelled at Crewe: "You vulgar pariah!
Crewe stood up immediately, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, miss." - Crewe did not bow his head when he apologized to them, although he was a rough man, he also knew that these people had nothing but chance birth, even if they had the talent to learn the world, without the minimum morality and respect and understanding of others, they were just a group of unlearned people who only knew how to entertain.
The pretty woman glanced at Crewe. Turning around, he left, "Let's go quickly, there's nothing to say to this kind of people, they are uneducated." β
Krumer was silent. He bent down and picked up the planks one by one, and said in his heart: "I am looked down upon like this, my son must not be like this, even if I am tired to death, I will train him to be a man who stands up to the heavens and the earth! He glanced around, but luckily the scene was not seen by the soldiers of the Legion of the Underworld, otherwise his day's work would have been in vain. But at that moment, faintly, he heard someone in the alley saying, "Have you heard? I heard that the Legalist Brasser is going to be beheaded on the sinner's table today." β
"Senior Brasser is going to be beheaded!" Crewe was taken aback, "what crime has he committed?"
After some time, when Sirins was about to come, the streets were lined with "thriving" people, all of whom were powerful and powerful, and civilians had no right to stand here. The people of the Legion of Hades are always on the lookout. As soon as there were poor-looking people standing here, they were going to take them away, while they were still contemplating an ingenious planβa brilliant plan that could not be announced to the outside at the moment.
Chivero walked down a quiet alley, keeping an eye on the movements of the Legion of Hades, and during this time, he saw several prisoner carts being pulled out of the Terrain Prison by the Scatter-tailed Colt and running down the street towards the Sinner's Desk in the heart of the city, where Chivero could clearly see Brasser's figure.
Another moment passed. A loud cheer suddenly came from the streets of Main Street, and Civero hid in the corner of the building near the Sinner's Stand, and he looked at the shadow left by the sun on the ground, and it was already noon.
"The king is coming!" the people in the streets rejoiced. Wearing a golden crown, Silins rode a Siturat war horse at the forefront, and on one side of him was a magnificent carriage, owned by Silins's beloved god of war, the second generation of the Barley Town, surrounded and behind by the mighty Hades legionnaires, including riders. There were archers, and there were spear-clinging infantrymen.
When Fernilles and some of the magnates of the city of Lauland saw Sirins, they hurriedly walked from afar, and they walked like flies, laughing hypocritically, and Ferniller shouted "heroically" from a long distance: "Dear king, you are at last here, we have been waiting here for a long time!"
After a period of greetings, the welcoming ceremony began, and the lord of the city, Fernelle, and the magnates walked on the side of Siturat, smiling and looking up at Sirins, who rode his warhorse. After some distance, I saw a red and luxurious blanket rolled into a cylinder falling from the sky and standing upright in front of Cilins.
"What is this?" asked Celiance, pausing and turning to Fernelle, who was standing beside him.
And the king saw it, and he knew it. Fennel replied respectfully.
Cillins looked ahead.
At this moment, the blanket slowly unfolded in all directions, like the petals blooming, and finally fully bloomed, and the stamens in the center of the petals were extremely delicate, and suddenly, the stamens trembled slightly as if blown by the wind, and then stretched out, and became a woman in a lively red dress, she was fluttering, and danced in the middle, and the enchanting dance steps and countenance immediately infected Cilins.
"Good!" he clapped his hands and laughed, "and sure enough, it's a stunning beauty." β
"Of course, as long as the king likes it, she is the king's. The lord of the city, Fernelle, knew that Sirins had no queen and liked beauty, so he did it on purpose, and he smiled wickedly.
After a long time, the welcome ceremony was finally coming to an end. The final rite to be performed was to purge those who might have done harm to King Sirins in the city of Law. The team slowly moved forward, finally in front of the Sinner's Stand in the center of the city.
Located in a large square in the center of the city, it is surrounded by tall buildings in all directions except for one direction leading to the long street, and it is the largest sinner's stand in the city, which can kill 100 prisoners together. Directly north of the sinner's stand is a warning stand one level higher than the sinner's stand, which is a place for people to watch the tragic fate of the deceased.
At this time, the sinner's table was already full of dozens of prisoners who were about to be beheaded, they were shackled and chained, and the soldiers of the Legion of Hades were tied to iron posts fixed to the sinner's platform with ropes, and the prisoners in prison clothes had haggard faces, and Brasser was tied in the middle
"We're going to die. The man next to Brasser bowed his head and said weakly.
"Yes. Brasser stretched out his chained hands, looked at the crowd and said, "I didn't expect it to be so soon." Yesterday at this time, I was still free to walk through the earth, I am not afraid of death, but ah......" Brasser let out a long sigh and looked around the audience.
Then. The team finally arrived. Ferniller grabbed Sillins' horse and said with a smile, "The king, please come to the warning stand to watch, it will be a great pleasure for you." β
So Chillens dismounted, picked up the well-dressed Barley Town Dog, and walked up to the high police stand. There were white tables and chairs inlaid with gold, and from where Celiens sat down and saw the prisoners on the table below.
"These are all bad people for me, aren't they?"
"Yes, but the best is yet to come," said Fernelle, who stood by his side, and took two plates of pastries from the maid's hand, one on the floor for the second generation of the god of war, and the other on the table before Sirins.
After that, Fenille walked slowly to the center of the police station. He said loudly: "It's quiet down there!"
When the audience was silent, he preached: "Today is the moment of history - the day when the great King of Cylins entered Lauridia, the king made an oath to change my Lauridia into the capital of the kingdom and name it the capital of heaven, what a great achievement, this is a glorious moment that is unique in history, please remember it in your hearts, please remember it - today - one afternoon in the spring of the two hundred and thirty-eighth year of the kingdom of heaven, we promised a great dream that surpasses everything!"
I just finished speaking. The people below cheered together, "Great King Sillins!
Sillings laughed, and Finnier changed his tone again and said in a loud voice: "But there are people who want to persecute this great dream. Someone colluded with the scum Chivero who destroyed the statue of the god and led the demon army to invade the country, and wanted to persecute this country, and that is the vicious prisoners on the sinner's platform, who were discovered and captured by the soldiers of our Hades Legion, and they deserved it, and should be beheaded immediately. β
"It turned out that I was arrested because of my Brasse. Chivero peeked behind a building not far from Sinner's Desk.
At this time. There was already a commotion under the sinner's seat, and when everyone heard the words of the city lord of Fenille, they all shouted in unison: "Kill them, kill them!"
Taking advantage of this chaotic opportunity, Brother Crewe led the mother and son of Lotosas to drill out of the gap surrounded by the Underworld Legion, and Brasser looked up sharply, "It's his beloved wife Goshen and son Lotosas. Seeing them rushing forward anxiously from the crowd, Brasser suddenly burst into tears, lowered his head and said with a wry smile: "What are you doing here, are you here to see me die?"
Mother and son and Big Brother Crewe stood in the crowd.
"Father was there. Lotosas pointed at Brasser and said loudly.
By this time, dozens of executioners were already standing behind the prisoners, carrying the heavy long axes.
Brasser closed his eyes as if in thought, and then opened them suddenly, squinting at his wife and children standing in front of him, and the beautiful Goshen stared at him with a pale smile, and he replied with a bright smile that had not appeared on his serious face for decades.
"Slash!" At this moment, only a thrilling shout was heard. Lotosas and his mother's hearts were about to be shattered.
"Isn't General Chivero coming yet?" Rotosas broke out in a cold sweat.
Brother Crewe clasped his hands tightly, "Senior Braser, you are so upright and kind, how could you be punished like this?
"Slow!" Brasser shouted, "I have one last word to say to my son!"
Brasser's face was pale, and he looked up at Cilins who was sitting in the chair of the police stand, "Please allow me to say two words, just two." β
The executioner's great axe stopped halfway through its turn, and they looked at Sillins as if they knew the innocence of the prisoners.
The other prisoners also opened their eyes, because of Brasser, they could live a little longer.
Sillins pouted a snack, "Isn't this the Legalist from Laocheng? He stood up and said in a loud voice, "If I cannot fulfill even the small wishes of a dying man, I am not a mean king." β
Brasser smiled. "Come, come, Lotosas. He waved his hand at Lotosas with his chains, and the audience fell silent, and everyone looked at Brasser and offered to make way for Lotosas, who ran forward and walked quickly up the stairs to the sinner's stand.
"Father!" he hugged his pale, chained father.
"Hurry up. Child. Brasser parted Lotosas with his chained hands, looked at him with his eyes and said solemnly, "Listen to me, Lotosas, everyone will die." It's not a big deal, don't cry, don't be like a child, you've grown up. β
"No! Lotosas burst into tears and gritted his teeth. "But this is different, your life is not over, the heavens have not let you die, you have not sinned, why should you die!"
"Lotosas, Lotosas!" Brasser kept patting Lotosas on the shoulder to sober him up, "Look, they didn't give me much time, I'm going to give you the point." It's like teaching you the law, you listen carefully, and it's going to be a way for me to survive. β
Lotosas wiped away his tears, "How to survive?" he asked.
At this time, there was no more noise in the audience, and Fenelle could not wait, and said to Sillings: "King, it has already exceeded two sentences. β
Cillins continued to chew on the snack without care, "It's a death anyway, and I really like to see how people behave before they die." And so. Fennille stepped aside.
"Listen, Lotusas. Brasser put his hands on Lotosas's shoulders, and in the midst of the uproar of the crowd, he solemnly whispered, "Human life is limited. After I die, you must learn to be independent, take good care of your mother, and live bravely and strongly. β
"Father. Something was wrong with Lotusas, "You probably won't die." He thought of Civero and said apprehensively.
"Let me tell you. Brasser put his mouth close to Lotosas's ear. He whispered, "There is a cortical letter in the land under the banyan tree where you often rely in our hometown, please take it out and secretly give it to the archangel Esfa, who is in heaven." β
"Remember, it's Esfa. Brasser reiterated, he slowly moved his mouth away, and said softly: "This burden may not be something you can bear, maybe it will crush you, but you must lift it, no matter what happens, you must not give up and rekindle the flame of light!"
Even though he couldn't understand his father's words, Lotosas nodded.
"Remember?" asked Brasser again.
"Yes, Father. β
"Then go back quickly, don't let these people see through it. "Hurry up!" said Brasser solemnly, "Hurry up!" and cried out with tears in his eyes, thinking of the pain that Lotosas would endure in the future.
"Father. Lotosas looked into his father's stern eyes, and he stared for a long time before he said, "I will remember your words." With that, he turned around abruptly and strode away.
"What are those two men talking about," Celins asked.
Fenille shook his head, glaring fiercely at the Legion of the Underworld soldiers gathered around the square, and thought to himself, "What a waste, to let these civilians in." Watching Lotosas run off the sinner's stand, he immediately shouted, "Okay, all the nonsense, now you can always die, right?"
"Who gave you such rights!Let whoever lives live, and let whoever dies?!" At that moment, Civero burst out from behind a nearby building, leaped past the Legion of Hades, and jumped onto the Sinner's Table, where he stood in the center with knife-like eyes staring at Sirins and Fenil.
Everyone was in chaos in an instant, and Cilins was also startled.
"What is that voice?" he stood up, scrutinizing Civero's face, "You're General Civero!" he exclaimed.
"It's Chivero!"
"It's Chivero......" The scene was in chaos, and everyone shouted his name from their mouths, "He's here to kill us." β
The people in the audience were afraid that they would be killed, and they immediately dispersed, but the soldiers of the Underworld Legion were blocked outside layer by layer, making it difficult for them to take half a step. Only the mother and son of Lotosas and the eldest brother of Kru stood in place, "It seems that this time my father has been saved." Lotosas said to his mother, who remained silent.
At that moment, Elder Esbinafatu poked his head out from behind the building in the square.
He didn't leave here. He whispered to the blue-armored man behind him, who was Civero's general, Trosicus.
"The return of General Chivero will change the fate of this country, and if he exists, the underground army will be instantly strengthened, and it can thwart Cylins and take power. Trosicus said.
When Ceilns saw Civelo, he was so frightened that he stepped back and knocked over the chair behind him.
"Why do you, the sinner of this country, dare to be here!" said Cillins, who had never expected Chivero to come here.
"Don't say more!" Chivero glanced at Brasser and the prisoners who were bound to iron posts. Pointing at Sillins, he shouted angrily, "You bastard who corrupted Zud! look, look! These are your people." This is your innocent people, who are to be beheaded here despite their crimes, and what your father told you when he was alive, that he wanted you to treat his people as he did with you, and that you would feel the joys and sorrows of the people. And you now. A person who has fallen into a human form and lost to himself has never been qualified to be a person, let alone a king!"
Cillins was so frightened by Chivero that his heart was pounding, and he didn't have the courage to reply.
"Don't panic!" declared Finnier, "I have already guessed that Civero will jump over the wall today and come here to save his comrades, he will not kill any of us, our people have surrounded this place, you all see how arrogant this Chivero is now." Think of the night he slaughtered his compatriots, and think of the head of the statue of the admirable god Sa!"
"Shut up, you centaur!" cried Civero, "have you seen it all? You are just a woodpecker who spreads rumors, and now you tell me what these prisoners are guilty of, and if you can make it up, you can use your eloquence." β
"Sin?" said Fenille, laughing, "what you have done yourself, do you not know? β
The people below listened. shouted in unison, "Dog thief Chivero!" The voice echoed in Chivero's ears in the square.
"These fools!" Trosicus scolded as he pounded the wall, "General Chivero is so loyal, he has been imprisoned in solitude and darkness for eight years, and he should be so wronged when he returns. "That's it. He strode forward, and Esbinafhar grabbed him.
"What do you want to do? There is an ambush they have set up here, and now you want to send it to death? How can you lead the underground army if you are not calm like this? The elder glanced at Trosicus and whispered.
On the execution table, Civero just wanted to reply, but looked down. There was the angry shouts of his own people everywhere, and the sound made him feel that maybe he had just been too angry, that he shouldn't have been, that he should have laughed casually and that it was over, that wasn't his personality. He grabbed the crystal necklace on his chest and did the same habitual movement againβsquinting at the sun in the sky, but this time, his eyes were extremely heavy and tired.
He saw the Lotosas mother and son in the crowd clasping their hands on their chests with such sad looks, and he knew that they wished he could save Mr. Brasser, and he knew that it was a pity for himself. He smiled bitterly at the two of them, and suddenly seemed to have let go of all his baggage, and laughed at everyone on and off the stage: "That's right, I, Chivero, am guilty, a heinous crime, and my sin lies in the fact that I should not keep my promise to the previous king, should not become a general to assist Cilins, and should not go to the West!"
"No! General Civero has never been guilty!" Brasser shouted, "General Civero will always be the most respected general of Syrsas, and the sun and the moon know this! He will never betray Syrsa unless Sylsa betrays him one day!"
Led by Brasser, all the prisoners shouted together: "The general is not guilty, the general is not guilty!"
"You are truly innocent, everyone, it is I who has caused you to live a good life. Chivero whispered, "You don't have to say anything for me, even how you shout, even if you are hoarse, it's just a waste of words, they have done too many illusions, no one will believe me!"
At this time, the audience suddenly became surprisingly silent, and everyone was dumbfounded, looking at Chivero who was standing on the sinner's platform with a beard and could not even be recognized as General Civelo, and they were all wondering how Civero became like this, what had happened to him in the past eight years, and they gradually became suspicious of his crimes.
At this moment, Fennel smiled slightly, he raised his arms, and a dozen chain hands burst onto the top floors of the buildings around the square. The chains struck Chivero as they danced, and Chivero dodged to dodge the jumble of chains.
At this point, Fernelle's bodyguard, Pato, jumped from the crowd onto the sinner's stand, his face was well contoured and his body was tall and muscular. He walked in front of Civelo, slammed his fist like steel at Civelo, Civelo reached out to block, but was knocked dozens of meters away and hit a nearby pavilion, the pavilion was penetrated, and a large wall fell off due to vibration, and then, Pato jumped into the pavilion, grabbed Civelo, who was lying on the ground, and jumped to the square, tied Civelo with chains, handed over to his soldiers, and smiled at Fernille, who was standing above: "I have caught it." β
Everyone was stunned, Qivero was in pain all over his body, and with the iron ropes tied, it was not easy to even move.
Trosicus looked at the bound Civero in the shadows.
"Will you save him?" he asked Elder Esbinaphar.
"Yes, but not now, I guess there are still a lot of ambushes around here, and it's enough for us to keep an eye on Chivero for now. Esbinafa replied.
General Chivero is bound, and Pato throws Chivelo into the prisoner cart he has prepared. When it was, Celins laughed wildly, felt a false alarm, and could complete the task given to him by the Demon Realm Messenger Ottoles, and he was in a great mood, and he immediately stood up from his throne and preached: "My people, now that the heinous Chivero has been bound, he has fulfilled everyone's wishes, and has cured my heart sickness that I have been worrying about day and night all these days, and today is a very pleasant day, I announce!" From now on, we will start to build Laocheng, we will reshape the statue of the god of Sa, reshape the spiritual beliefs, reshape all the good things, and sooner or later it will become an out-and-out heavenly capital. In addition, Celins stretched out his arms again and said in a loud voice: "Tonight, the whole city will drink freely, and all the money will be delivered by this king!"
"King Sirins!!" the crowd shouted when they heard this.
Mother and son stood in despair in the crowd, General Chivero was bound, and Brasser was certain to die. Amid the cheers of the crowd, the two died as if they had been hanged.
In an instant, all I could hear was Fennel shouting, "Kill!" - there was not a trace of affection in his voice.
Lotosas's heart was broken, but he had to hold back the tears of anger, the words his father had told him echoed in his ears for a long time, and at the last moment, Brasser's warm eyes looked at him, he nodded, his mother covered his eyes with her hand, and the big axe was pulled down, Brasser looked at his beautiful wife, as if she had now arrived in another world, and smiled: "I am leaving, but my life goes on." β
With the ruthless slash of the big axe, dozens of bloody human heads were all cut off to the ground, and at the same time, the mother and son of Lotosas and all the people of Syrsa were beheaded in the illusion of beauty. Lotosas's closed eyes opened slightly, and tears welled up like a fountain.
"If you don't mind, you mother and son can go to our house first. Crewe knew that their house had been demolished, and now that it was happening again, he said pityingly as he looked at the two of them.
The mother thought that there was nothing left in the house for the two of them to continue living, so she nodded numbly. (To be continued.) )
