Chapter 40: A Love Story in the Autumn Harvest 4

Wright and his father have been kidnapped before, and they are extremely sensitive to unexpected situations. When he heard something wrong, he immediately turned around and tried to rush out, but the door was slammed shut. In the confusion, his father punched him twice indiscriminately and was knocked to the ground, while Wright struggled for a while and did not move. After a squirming sound, a bean light appeared on the table, and my father looked up and was surprised that they were all old friends: they were all old friends of Kazak.

After the father and Wright were lifted to the chair and sat down, he saw a bandit and a woman he had seen on the other side being tied to the chair.

"Sagron, you kid is so blessed. Summoned this God of Wealth. Said a robber. Looks like we can do this business again haha. ”

At this time, his father knew that the robber was Sagron, and for a while he even suspected that Kazak had played himself hard before he died, so that he could fall into the tiger's mouth.

Saglon looked up, and his father noticed a wound on his head, presumably from the fight. "We're gone, you idiot. We swore to the leader! If you participate in this kind of activity again, we will be bandits again! ”

"You traitor! You have betrayed your leader, and now you are using his prestige to crush us. If we had rushed out at that time, the big boss would never have ended up like this. It's just that we didn't know that you had been bribed at the time, and we listened to your orders and watched the big boss in a different place! A young bandit scolded.

Sagron pleaded: "I said that I did not betray him!" I wasn't bought! ”

"I saw with my own eyes that Ruda came to thank you after the death of the Great Chief! In the bakery. Another thief said.

"I repeat. You all saw it that day, there were patrols all over the mountains outside, and we all died when we went out. And you don't want to stand and talk without backache, instead of you, when your family is controlled by others, and there are many dangers outside, who dares to guarantee that you can act like a hero? I'll admit that it was my fault for not pulling the leader, and I have a lot of money in my heart. But are you happy when we die together?! ”

Several robbers seemed unable to refute it.

An old robber fixed his mind and said, "Sagron, I have always treated you as my son." You are young and strong, and I approve of Kazak's choice of you as the leader, and whether you continue to do this business in the future or go to Nord to be a farmer as the leader of Kazak said, I am in favor of it. You said that you didn't rush out for the good of everyone, I don't know about this, I believe you. But this time, you know that the lives of our people were picked up by Kazak, and if you want us to return it to him, we will not hesitate in the slightest. You say that you are protecting us, but you are really against our will, and you are making yourself look like you have other plans. What I want to know is whether you did anything to betray Kazak. ”

"Nope." Sagron said without hesitation, drawing boos.

The old bandit was about to speak, when a voice came, "What he said is true."

Everyone, including his father, looked back at Wright in surprise.

"We've been with Ruda these days and never met this guy. Everything was done by the guy with a damp face. He repeatedly said that if he caught Sagron, he would be able to catch Kazak. I guarantee this as a nobleman. ”

"Then why did Sagron hide in the hut with us doing nothing, and Kazak was ambushed around it. Later, Ruda mysteriously went to discuss something with him and thanked him! ”

"Hmph, you fools. First, if you know that Kazak has a place where he has to come, everyone will guard it, and there is no need for Sagron to tell Ruda; Second, Sagron has already said that he is no better than you, he has family and concerns, and it is normal for people to hesitate to make a moment, and if he rushes out, Kazak will not be able to save him, and he will say that his poor wife will be unlucky immediately; In the end, Ruda just said thank you and separated you like this. The brother Xinyi you have been boasting about is complete bullshit! ”

A bandit wants to come up and beat Wright. Stopped by the old bandits. The old bandit knew that, at least on the first point, Wright was not fooling, and Kazak promised to come to Sagron's aid in front of everyone.

The old bandit said, "Well, even if what you say is true, why are you here?" Why do you want to speak for Sagron? At this time, all the bandits were silently thinking about Wright's words.

Wright's heart was pounding, he didn't know if his pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger would work, he tried to calm himself down a little in his heart: "Kazak asked us to come." ”

The bandits were shocked.

"No way, the big boss is dead!"

"We have no ill will," Wright said. Unless you want to be our enemies again. My friend was a witness to Kazak's death and his delegate. If you want to know the cause and effect, let us go. ”

My father kept trying to interject a sentence, but found that he couldn't open his mouth because he couldn't speak. The old man curled up in fear.

The old bandit thought about it and issued a loosening order.

Wright then asked his father to tell the group what Kazak's will was. For an hour or so, the bandits listened to the story of their father's commission from Kazak. At the same time, I also knew that the reason why my father did this was because of the little girl, and because the little girl trusted Kazak, so my father would seriously consider the request of a bandit.

The most crucial moment came, and my father concluded by saying, "Sagron, I trust my Rhine, and at the same time I believe in the person she has chosen. Kazak asked me to come to you. I've heard about your situation here, and what my confused second uncle did was indeed a shame. I think Kazak promised you something. ”

The bandits looked at each other, and they remembered Kazak's promises. In the silence, my father knew the answer.

"It's a check for 1,000 dinars."

Father pulled out a piece of hard paper. All the people stared at the paper, somewhat amazed at the novelty.

"The blood on this is Kazak's, and I don't want you to think anything else. I don't know how many problems can be solved. But if one is redeemed for thirty dinars, this can save thirty people, and perhaps this is the salvation of thirty families on the verge of destruction. That's what Kazak asked us to do. Sagron, Kazak has appointed you to receive this gift. Wright said for my father.

"This money is ???" Sagron asked.

"It's my money, but Kazak said I can buy anything from you that I can't buy anywhere. I believe in him," my father said.

The old robber untied the rope from Sagron's body, and the robbers watched him silently. He took the check from my father's hand and walked up to Sagron step by step?????? Chief, let the misunderstanding be cleared up, and may the soul of the old leader rest in peace. Please accept our allegiance. ”

All the robbers, you look at me, I look at you. Then he lowered his head one after another. Saglon looked at his wife in embarrassment, that woman had only known that her husband was a thief in the past few days, and now he had become the leader of the thieves. It made her heartbroken.

My father stood up and asked Sagron if he could leave, and Sagron came over and bent down and kissed the back of his hand: "Sir, if necessary." My brothers and I will always answer your call. ”

My father said, "I can only do half of your problem." This is the legacy that Kazak has left you, and I am just passing it on my behalf. If you want to thank you, please thank a little girl named Rhine Kugit. ”

Wright comforted the old man who was slumped on the ground, telling him not to be afraid, and not to tell anyone. The old man knew that if this matter was leaked, the enemy he faced would be countless times more terrible than the lord, and he originally wanted to use Sagron as a shield, but now he found out that Sagron was simply the most dangerous arrow.

Outside the door, Dimitri sighed softly, and disappeared between the houses of the cottage as footsteps sounded and moved towards the door. The dim moon looked listlessly at the world, and the stars around it shone brightly.

After his father and Wright had handed over Kazak's instructions, they said goodbye to the lord the next morning. As he was leaving, Dimitri said to his father something he did not understand: "Go, friend, and I will do the rest of the half." ”

When his father and Wright rushed back to Suno, they were unexpectedly welcomed like heroes by the tax collector's family. The tax collector's wife, in particular, thought it too lovely for a young man who had sacrificed his life for the sake of a poor little girl. The tax collector also said that from this point, you can see the kindness of his father, which must be a perfect inheritance of the bloodline of his predecessors.

My father felt that there was anger hidden under my grandfather's perfunctory smile of the tax collector couple.

Jill also knows that Ho. As soon as Arcadio II left the sight of the tax collector couple, he was bound to be beaten. My father keenly felt his dangerous situation, so he insisted on the tax officer to ask him all kinds of strict legal items in the "National Tax Regulations" all day long, and went to ask the tax officer's wife about the old appearance of the White Pigeon Valley decades ago. Arcadio the first summons shirked in every way.

Until Jill cried and said, "Young master, if you don't go, the master will beat me." ”

Wright patted his father on the shoulder: "You have to come, you have to come", Wright's expression was extremely sincere, but the corners of his mouth twitched, as if he could laugh at any time.

My father had a few books in his buttocks---- all of which he pulled out of the tax officer's bookcase. Jill breathed a sigh of relief the moment he dropped my father into my grandfather's room. At the same time, he closed the door, drew the curtains, and carefully weighed the soundproofing of the house, fearing that he would let out an earth-shattering scream.

The tax officer and his wife also know that although the child has a hard time this time, if he doesn't teach him a lesson, he will inevitably do something impulsive when he enters the society in the future. It's time for him to rein in his temper. They praised their father in front of their grandfather, but they just wanted him to suffer less, and they didn't try to make his grandfather let him go completely.

After that day, my father lay on his stomach in bed for three days. Until his great uncle came in, "Young man, how do you feel?" ”

The father squeezed out a smile: "It's okay, it's okay." Wright and Jill laughed scoffingly.

The tax officer frowned: "You are fine, but the covers of my three White Papers on Taxation Regulations have rotted, what can I do?" Youngster. ”

The father cried and mourned: "This is what my father did, it's none of my business." ”

The tax officer said that he had to change the cover of a government-issued document, and the procedures were extremely troublesome, and he had to open various joints on the approval and asked his father how he was going to repay. My father said pitifully, "I don't know."

The innocent young man amused the tax collector, and when he had had enough, the tax collector said, "Young man, there is a ball for the Kugi envoy today, which is held by the merchants of the city. There's something greasy in this, let's learn it, don't pretend about your injuries, my doctor has seen it and said it'll be fine the next day. You can pretend to show it to your father, but I'll take you to have fun, and you shouldn't lie to me. ”

Are the Kugit people???

My father suddenly became serious. "I ??? Reluctant to meet these Kujits. ”

The tax collector said, "Why? ”

"I've met two Kugits these days, and there's so much I have to say about them. I feel a little sad when I think of the Kujiits, uncle, I really don't want to go. ”

Jill, who had been silent, suddenly said, "Go, young master." Go ahead. I know you're sad because of that little Kugit girl, but when you meet more Kujiits, I think you'll get to know her little girl better. If you don't reject her, you shouldn't reject her people. It's good for your future. Jill was a little too enthusiastic.

The tax collector nodded appreciatively. Wright was noncommittal.

The father noticed Jill's abnormality, although he was unwilling, but since Jill had asked for it, it seemed that the kid wanted to go on his own. Recalling some time ago, Jill seemed to have a place in his heart, and his father vaguely guessed Jill's original intentions.

So my father turned over and got out of bed, swept away his sickness, and saw everyone's surprised eyes, and my father was a little embarrassed: "Okay, Wright, you can go too." Uncle, can you prepare three sets of dresses for us? ”

"Of course, I was a dress collector when I was younger."

Hal was busy with the ball. He hoped that a celebration would sweep away his bad luck. He purchased a large amount of pork, mutton, beef, dozens of hard cheeses, 3 large bags of spices, 4 oak barrels of milk, 22 roast chickens, 35 catties of foie gras, more than a dozen baskets of seasonal fruits and vegetables, etc.; He prepared the most delicious drinks, including mare's milk wine and milk tea, which the Kugit people loved to drink; He brought in three bands to play in shifts, and decorated the house with silk ribbons. And a hundred catties of lamp oil can illuminate the house into the brightest star in the night of Sunno City.

Of course, the most important thing is that today his daughter is 18 years old. It's time for this cute kid to come out and see what's on the market. This time, these old men of Kugit made extraordinary moves, bought a lot of supplies, and when it came to transportation, Hal felt that he was familiar with the road, and he didn't need anything else to transport it out of the border, just connections and money, and these Hal could all operate.

While Hal was writing invitations in his study, his daughter came and grabbed a box of quill pens and tiptoed back.

"Do you want to write anything, dear?" Hal looked at his daughter from the top of his glasses, which Hal had obtained for 400 dinars from a Rhodok, who said, "This is the magic of the Salanders, which allows you to see things in the distance!" Make small things bigger. "Hal thought it was amazing, and his eyesight deteriorated very quickly, so even though it cost him 400 dinars, he thought it was worth it.

"Excerpt some poetry, Daddy."

On the first night of my father's bed with a serious injury to the buttocks, Jill received a letter:

"To the nephew of the lord on the other side of the mountain:

Please attend the dance party at the Plaza Street Dance Arena in three days' time. I'll be waiting for you behind the curtain with the Silverwing Mask. It's right between the second and third pillars.
