Chapter 132: Brother of Freedom
The pitch-black forest was illuminated
You drew the pursuers in his direction, and at the same time illuminated the way forward for us
The father's carriage continued on its way, a long road ahead, with the fading light and the faint shouts of the soldiers behind it
In that moment, the entire forest was shaken
The creatures of the forest have seen the campfires of travelers, the torches of soldiers, and the wildfires caused by lightning strikes in the long night of ancient times, but they have not seen any life to see that kind of scene, as if a sun was forcibly captured from the darkness and forced to shine in the legend of the Zen people, there was once a man who stole the fire from heaven, and the shock when people saw the fire for the first time on the dark and cold Great 6 was nothing more than that
As our carriage turned a corner, I saw that the flames in the sky were extinguishing, and in less than a few seconds the forest was silent again
I could barely see anything when the flame first appeared, but after I got used to the light, its extinguishing brought a second blindness to meI had never seen such a beautiful fireworks, and if this spectacle appeared on the night of the celebration of the festival in Suno, it would have created a frenzy like never before
The temporary silence in the forest brought about a long silence in the carriage
"Mom, will you ever come back?"
I was expecting my mother to say what I wanted to hear, but she hadn't said a word since she got on the road, and this time too, she pulled me over and kissed me on the forehead
The goblin sat with his back to the car, and in the next second he doubted Yuu, Yu proved his nobility with flames, and now, the goblin should really want to have a good talk with You, who was a little prickly, He opened the wooden window above the side of Mén, and called out to his father, wanting to say something to him
It seemed to take a long time for my father to think about the goblin's words, but he responded with an irrelevant remark, "How far is the pine forest?" ”
"Just go straight, we don't have to look for the pine forest, especially the cover for us is bigger than the wood, we can get from its edge to the east as fast as we can, and we will not be far away from the big river downstream of the Xiao Creek, and after crossing that river, we will be farther and farther away from the hinterland of Svadia."
Many of the soldiers who chased us were peasants from the northern provinces, only a few were cavalry from the south, and those peasants may have never seen that kind of thing called fireworks in their lives, and it is said that when You lit his own fireworks, all the soldiers who were in the dark were stunned, these people thought that no one could see themselves in the dark, and they marched arrogantly, cursing all the way
But suddenly, as if God had lit a candle in the sky, everything was lit up
The first reaction of many soldiers was to throw down their weapons and kneel on the ground to beg for forgiveness, some of them shrunk into a ball, as if the doomsday judgment had come, but those cavalry from the south were well-informed, they had seen this strange thing many times in the banquets of the great nobles, although it was not as shiny as this time, but after coming to their senses, these cavalrymen immediately regained their discipline
The cavalrymen used their whips and scabbards to get the peasants to their feet, they cursed and reprimanded the soldiers, and after panicking for a while, they reluctantly regrouped the frightened legged team, but regrouping the queue and restarting the search were two different things, and before the soldiers knew what had happened, let them continue unrealisticly, and in the end, the lightly wounded officer had to allow his soldiers to stop and rest, and sent the bravest cavalry with a few infantrymen who could still walk to see what was going on
The night of these soldiers scattering and searching from the left and right towards the place where the fire was lit before heading to the forest was a little cold, and the hearts of these unlucky soldiers assigned to reconnoiter must have been cold
On the other side of the forest, when the soldiers who were pursuing us were forced to stop, my father was driving the carriage all the way to the northeast, and we had not been able to walk for more than a little when we saw the pine forest that the goblin had said, along the edge of the pine forest, we started to move all the way, but soon the road disappeared completely, only the xi, which was cut by the woodcutter, and there were some timber on top of it, which was obviously cut down by the woodcutter and could not be transported away, and these timbers became an obstacle for us, Tall tree stumps often make us have to go around to the side
I have heard that there is no decent road in Nord, and that if she is true, it would be bad, and then our carriage would be of no use, but the goblins have told me that in the last twenty years King Nord has built almost as many roads as the Rhodoks
I asked the goblins, "Probably not as much as we built in Svadia?" ”
Goblin smiled, "There are still so many roads to build in a country, it's not necessarily something to be proud of, but when our carriage arrives in Nord, it should be able to run, but I doubt that this carriage can hold out there."
The horse gradually lost its strength, and was frightened in the flames just now, when facing a xiaoxiao's mountain bag, one of our horses was completely paralyzed, it was foaming at the mouth, its hooves trembled, it was easy to stand firm, and the other horse's condition was slightly better, it turned its head and gasped, sniffed its partner, and then often 'whew', shook its head and stopped asking
My father stopped the carriage, found some stones to put on the back of the wheels, and then went to the front, pulled the reins and dragged the horse forward, and after steady, he ran to the back to make up for the stones, and the goblin jumped out of the car when he saw this, and ran to the back to fill in the stones, and I wanted to follow, but my father told me to go back, saying that I was always on the road, and I was not allowed to run as I pleased
The carriage was pulled to the top of the slope little by little, and we were about to succeed, but the horse suddenly slipped under his feet, and my father tried hard to hold on to the reins, but he didn't stabilize the carriage, and my father had to shout loudly, so that the goblin dodged away, and when the goblin moved to the side, the carriage fell to the bottom of the slope, and I poked my head out and said loudly, "My mother and I are in it, it's too heavy, we can go down and maybe we can go up."
The goblin walked to the front and looked at the exhausted horse, shook his head and sighed, "No, we're still hiding in the woods, we've gotten rid of them a lot, at least much better than in the evening."
"That's all there is to it," said my father, after checking the horses one last time
My father took my mother out of the cart and led me to jump with one hand, and then he and the goblins unloaded the heaviest things from the cart, and then he tried again to urge the two horses, and let them pull the cart, which was already much lighter, and the two horses walked and stopped, and after a while they moved into the woods, and after a while, my father reappeared, and he divided the things on the ground into several piles, and then let us sort them and carry them on our backs, and followed him into the forest
We were busy for more than half an hour before barely settling down, behind a huge log that fell to the ground and rotted, we found a flat ground with thick pine needles falling on it, I don't know how long it has been accumulating, with a faint fragrance, lying on it with my eyes closed as if lying in the warehouse at home bumpy all the way I feel very comfortable
The four fields are quiet, and the sound of insects is the only embellishment, making the night seem more peaceful
How exciting it would have been to sleep peacefully in the forest on such a night, if we didn't know that there were dozens or hundreds of people chasing us behind us
I listened to the whispered conversation of the adults, their voices were quiet and deep, even the topics we were talking about made me drowsy, I felt my eyelids grow heavier, their voices seemed to come from outside the sky, and soon after, my mother put a blanket over me, and I fell asleep almost instantly
Tired people always get a good night's sleep, as if I woke up in the blink of an eye, in fact, I was awakened by niao, in a dream, I ran back and forth between every corner of the white pigeon valley, I scared away the xiaojī on the side of the cottage, attracted the dissatisfied shouts of the cook, made my grandmother worry and called my name, and then I also dreamed that I kept drinking water, and finally I woke up and felt a strong sense of niao for the first time
I sat up blankly and pushed the blanket away
I saw my mother curled up by the woods, the goblins sleeping under a pile of leather boxes, and my father sitting with his sword on his hand, his eyes red
I stood up and told my father that I was going to sa niao, and he told me not to go far, just settle in the woods behind me
I said, "Okay."
I walked with the hem of my clothes, and then walked behind him and around a tree, but I still didn't think it was far enough, so I walked another tree, and then began to aim at the roots of the tree
A dark figure appeared not far away, and my eyes widened as I looked up: it was a soldier with a spear in his hand, wearing a domed iron helmet that was as smooth as a freshly peeled boiled egg, and he was hunched over trying not to make a sound
When I saw him, he saw me
The soldier seemed surprised to be seen by me, he stared at me for a moment, then tried to make a smile, and pressed his index finger to his lip to signal me not to shout, but I remember that yesterday they tried to kill my father, and I turned sharply to run, ready to scream as I ran
But at this moment, an oily hand with the smell of roast lamb roast roasted roast
"Haha, well done," the soldier holding the spear on the other side shouted in a low voice, "This little man almost ruined our business"
"Is this the bastard's baby son? With this xiao thing, we are going to make money."
"Well, it's Wright, the eastern guy, I don't know if it will cut off our financial route."
"Don't worry about this for now, go around and take a look, Arcadio, this bastard should be around, if we can cut off his head, we can be the captain, his wife is said to be very beautiful, she is a smart southerner, hehe"
"You yīn stick, hehe, why do I like you so much, but I said, that Arcadio can fight very well, and his head has been cut by him, should we both go outside and bring the brothers first?"
"You stupid, those wolves are coming, and the féi sheep are being taken away by them, go and look around, they are probably still sleeping."
The two men carried me and groped around, seeing that they were getting closer and closer away from my camp
After crossing a few trees was our carriage
"I said," whispered the spearman in front, "I feel something is wrong."
Behind the log, my father leaped into the air with his sword in his hand, and condescendingly raised his sword and slashed it at the spearmen who were walking in front
My father must have been away for too long, so he was alert, and at this time he would hide behind the log and prepare for a surprise attack, and the spearman hurriedly dropped his weapon in order to avoid his father's attack, jumped backwards, and fell to the ground
My father stepped on the spear and pointed his sword at the man who was holding me, while squinting at the soldier who had lost his weapon
The soldier hurriedly drew the dagger from his waist and gestured at his father, while the soldier holding me cried out loudly: "Arcadio, your son is in our hands, my dagger is too fast to move."
Father kicked the spear behind him, and the goblin trembled over and picked it up, the spear trembling in his hand
"Do you dare to touch my son? If he dies, you will die soon, and your brother can run away while I kill you, will you be stupid enough to do it? ”
Father took a step
"Bastard," the soldier who had lost his spear shouted to the man who had tied me up, "Arcadio this bastard is trying to provoke us not to listen to him, hold his son, and slowly retreat, he doesn't dare to follow Arcadio If you dare to go further, I will cut off a piece of your son."
The two soldiers slowly retreated, my father's eyes widened, but he really didn't follow, I looked at him with wide eyes, tears and snot came out together, I tried to break free from the stinky hand, but I couldn't do anything
"Hurry up, blow the trumpet, call my brothers," shouted my bound man
When the soldier with the dagger on the other side heard this, he immediately fumbled for his belt, and tried to get the horn out to see that he was very nervous, and his hands trembled twice and did not touch the horn, and at last, when he took it out, he was ecstatic, as if he had been saved
"Haha, the horn sounds, I'll be here in the first moment"
His voice turned into a long inhalation, as if someone had torn his lungs apart
An arrow plunged into his chest from behind, then a second, then a third, a fourth, and they puffed into his body as if they had pierced a straw fork into a straw stack
The man's dagger and horn fell limply to the ground, and he himself slowly fell, and he looked back in surprise to think about someone, but an arrow came through his neck, and turned his head back so violently that he didn't know who was striking him until he died
The person behind me turned around abruptly and scolded loudly, "Who dares to attack the emperor ** person who is bold?"
Taking advantage of the moment when this man turned around, I bit his hand violently, twisted my head, and tore it away with all my might, and the soldier who was hugging me exclaimed, my hand loosened, and I ran forward with my head buried in my head, and there was a scream behind me, I guess he had been shot
I hurriedly ran forward, fell to the ground, I struggled to get up, only to see a pair of black sè boots I looked up, a tall man with a green sè cloak stood in front of me, his left hand was holding a longbow, his right hand put an arrow on the string and the back of the bow, his face was hidden under the cloak, I couldn't see his face clearly
There was a scream from behind, and I turned around, just in time to see my father stepping on the soldier's chest, holding the hilt of the sword with both hands, and penetrating the soldier's throat with force, I heard a loud sound of hemoptysis, and my father took the sword out, and blood burst out of the soldier's throat
I struggled to my feet and ran towards my father, but the man with the green cloak did not stop
"Who are you?" said my father, holding me behind him with his hand, to the man in the cloak
The man straightened up, and there was one more man next to him now, and they both took off their cloaks together
The father let out an 'ah' in surprise
Those were two people my father knew
Not long ago, a farmer was arrested for helping his father, and after that, the farmer named Kenlahir escaped and went to the North Sea, where he found Sagron, who had settled there for many years, to remind him of the movement in the south; to remind him of the suffering that the White Dove family is suffering; Remind him of the favor of the lord on the other side of the mountain that everyone received many years ago
Kenlahir reminds Sagron that "it's time to do something"
Sagron nodded, "I know, gather Xiao guys"
They wound the best bows; The arrows were made with feathers and iron cones; Put on the cloak that has been pressed under the box for many years
Then, head all the way south
From that day on, the men of a settlement in the North Sea were almost empty, mostly Swadians, who had followed Kazak and now did not hesitate to follow Sagron
"Who are we?" Sagron laughed, and from behind almost every tree in the forest came a man with a longbow, a cloak, and a quiver on his shoulder
Then Saglon called out the boastful slogan of the robbers of the green forest, which was the slogan of Kazakmin:
"We are brothers of freedom
