Chapter 258: Carelessness

"Who?" An'e stood up, her palms already on the strong bow she was carrying.

"I don't know...... It seems that there are quite a few people. Let's go, let's get out of here while they're not coming. Nepps, with Zhuo'er on the horse, followed by many people, I don't know whether they are friends or foes. Bell rolled over and got on his horse, put his hand on the pergola and looked into the distance, so that he could not see the other side clearly.

Nepps nervously picked up his daughter and climbed onto the horse, "No matter who they are, if there are so many people, let's try to stay away from them." It's really not possible to hide in the woods in front of us, if it's really a robber, our horses won't be able to outrun them, will we? ”

With Bell's permission, the group plunged headlong into the woods. I found a place with the most dense vegetation and tied the horse's mouth with a cloth belt.

The men and horses from afar soon came to the entrance of the forest area, and the first to arrive was a group of cavalry, "Didn't you say that they should wait at the entrance...... Why did you run in?"

"Didn't you see us and be scared?"

"They probably didn't go too far, that skinny horse couldn't go too fast, let's still do the same old way!"

"Hmm...... Well, anyway, Dude, they're still here for a while. ”

As they spoke, several soldiers' aunts walked into the forest area...... Yes, that's right, these are not really Imperial cavalry.

The bandit regiment has been committing frenzied crimes on the main road, and has fought several battles with the Imperial Legion in the past few days, with casualties of varying degrees on both sides.

Due to the deep forested area, the empire has little to do with these bandit groups. The most important thing is that the large bandit groups have some background and relationships, which is the basis for them to be entrenched in the forest area all year round. It's not entirely impossible for the bandits to get some soldier equipment......

"It's those cavalry ......," Bell, hiding in the bushes, saw clearly on the road.

"Is that the one we met earlier?" asked Nepps quietly.

An'esa nodded slowly, "Well, that's them." ”

"Whew...... It turned out to be a false alarm. The merchant caressed his daughter in his arms.

"Those people may have been brought by them, let's wait a little longer, if it's really a traveler. It's never too late to go out. Bell said cautiously.

"The cavalry was ahead of those people, and it was supposed to open the way in advance. We might as well go along with them, so that we can take care of one more person. When Nepps saw the soldier, his heart fell to the ground, although he felt a little sorry for the two around him, but what could be more reassuring than the Imperial soldiers.

Bell glanced at him, "So be it." I'll go out first, and if I'm sure there's nothing wrong, you'll come out." Annesa is ready to support me at any time. ”

The Imperial Cavalry was right, but he always cared about those behind the cavalry. If the cavalry really organized the travelers to advance together on the road, then why did they just ask us to wait at the entrance......

I had doubts in my heart, but I didn't think about the cavalry as a robber. After a bend on the right side of the bushes, it reappeared on the road.

A cavalry team of eleven men was carefully surveying both sides of the road, apparently looking for something. From the hoof prints on the ground, it can be seen that the men did enter the wooded area.

But it didn't take long for the hoof prints to disappear. This makes it much more difficult to track all of a sudden. What is Bale, a hunter of the village of Loire, one of the best professions in the woodlands to hide his tracks, and how can people easily discover his route?

"It turned out to be you, I thought there was a robber chasing after me. Emerging from the bushes, Bell stared at the soldiers with his crosssword.

"Whew...... If we hadn't seen you, we might have killed you like a robber. The captain-like man put away the short bow in his hand, and it seemed that Bell really frightened him.

"What about the people you've been with all the way?" said another soldier, opening his mouth.

Bell's heart trembled, but his face remained calm, "They left first. I had left something in the inn, so I had to go back and get it. I didn't expect to meet you halfway, it really scared me to death. ”

These people were definitely not Imperial soldiers! Not to mention that they grew up in a village that produced veterans, but to say that they had lived in Lolvie's camp not long ago.

He is much more familiar with the concept of cavalry than normal people. As an important military force in every country, cavalry is the most demanding in terms of combat training and obedience training.

Captain like this speaks. The situation of ordinary soldiers stubble is not allowed in the cavalry...... Even if you are out on a mission, no one supervises you, and you have a good relationship with the people in the squad, this should not be the case in front of outsiders.

Of course, this is not the main reason...... There was only one thing that really made him suspicious. That is, none of these cavalrymen had unused torches in their sacks.

You know, it takes at least half a day to travel between the two hotels. As a patrolling cavalry team, you must not be able to ride your horse and whip to the road.

Then the time it will take them to travel between the two hotels will definitely be more than half a day, or even a day...... There will definitely be a night walk that will take place for a while.

You must know that this is a forest area, and the light in the forest area is much weaker than in the wilderness, especially when it is close to evening and morning, and there is not even a little light to penetrate.

If you want to pass through this kind of place, you must at least prepare an oil lamp or torch. However, these people did not prepare those ...... What does that mean? It means that they didn't walk at night.

On the other hand, I came out of the hotel very early, from dawn to meeting them...... Not for a long time. If the troop had been departing from the inn where they had been staying, it was possible that they would have appeared on the main road at that time.

But he hadn't seen such a cavalry team appear since he stayed at the hotel, so they certainly weren't on a mission nearby.

Either on a mission nearby, it must have come from another hotel...... When I think back to the time I saw them, they weren't very fast, and you can see that they kept walking at that speed.

Why am I so careless! Ma Wuhan doesn't gasp...... It's just a leisurely stroll. At that speed, how could it be possible to appear near the hotel early in the morning?!

Bell's mind was in a hurry, but his face always remained calm, "I don't know if there are any travelers coming this way, they are not walking very fast, you can catch up in a while." If I do, can I ask you to escort them for me, and you're going back to the Forest Hotel, too?"

Anyway, let's get them out first...... If you can't fight, you won't fight, and there may be people of them in this forest area. (To be continued.) )
