Chapter 6 [Restless Heart]

The clouds on the horizon were burned red by the setting sun, and on the evening of this chūn day, a richly decorated carriage slowly drove along a road in the southern province of Kot. This jīng-chic four-wheeled carriage is made of the finest materials. The dignified and noble black body, as well as the beautiful carvings and gold-painted patterns on the carriage, all show the noble identity of the owner of this carriage.

Especially the family badge on the car!

A circle of irises swirled around the blades of two crossed swords, and on the hilt of the sword was a crown, shrouded in raging flames......

Such a badge can only be seen in the eyes of a nobleman who knows enough about the science of badges! Among all the families in the entire empire, there are not many people who can carve two crossed swords on the badge! These two long swords represent at least one figure at the level of an imperial marshal in the history of the family. And the crown above symbolizes that this family has a blood relationship with the royal family!

In the front and rear of the carriage, there were ten knights of the guard wearing light armor, riding horses, hanging knights' swords, the armor on their bodies was polished, and the weapons were bright, but what did not match this beautiful outfit was that these knights all looked dejected.

Ma De sat next to the coachman, he bit a grass root boredly in his mouth, glanced at Tian Sè, then sighed deeply, turned around and leaned down to knock on the window of the carriage: "Young Master Du Wei, are we looking for a place to rest, Tian Sè is a little dark." ”

In the carriage, Du Wei, who had been interrupted from reading, raised his head, he opened the window and glanced at the falling in the sky: "Okay." ”

Mader immediately answered, and at this time, a horse galloped in front of him, and soon came to the carriage, and a knight of the family guard in light armor panted slightly, and said loudly: "Lord Steward, there is a small town ahead, it seems that this is the only place we can choose to rest tonight." ”

Made, who used to be a groom, still couldn't get used to being called "Lord Steward", but the honest man still took off his hat and nodded to the young knight riding in front of him: "The master has spoken, and I will rest in front today." ”

Looking at the young knight's loyal and resolute face, Mader sighed inwardly: "Pure young man. ”

This time, the servants who returned to the hometown of the Luo Lin family with Young Master Du Wei were only twenty family guard knights.

As the second-in-command of the dignified Imperial Command, the eldest son of Lord Count Raymond, he returned to his hometown on this trip, but he only brought such twenty guards and himself as a "chief manager" plus a coachman.

Such a lineup of followers is also a little too shabby.

You must know that those wealthy families in Dìdū, those aristocratic families, even if it is a wild outing, will bring a large number of servants and guards.

As for the twenty family guard knights, they were all "carefully selected" by jīng.

Everyone knows that this Young Master Du Wei has completely fallen out of favor in the family. The future of the family lies in his brother's. Although he didn't say it explicitly, everyone understood that this Young Master Du Wei had been deprived of the status of "family heir".

There is no doubt that with such a master who was sent back to his hometown to guard his ancestral business, the future is very bleak. Everyone is utilitarian, everyone wants to stay in the bustling dìdū, and no one wants to follow a waste-like master back to the poor countryside to live a mediocre life.

Especially the knights. Who doesn't want to stay in Dìdū, stay by the Earl's side, maybe in the future, he will be able to win the Earl's favor with his martial arts skills and soar! Therefore, when it was arranged to accompany Young Master Du Wei back to his hometown, everyone couldn't avoid this mission. No knight would want to waste his best years accompanying a master of a nest back to his hometown to take care of the peasants!

As a result, the twenty knights who were finally selected were undoubtedly a group of unlucky ghosts. Either they are inferior in martial arts and are overwhelmed, or they are withdrawn and disliked by their colleagues or excluded, or they are young and ignorant and simple-minded and easy to coax.

Looking at the young knight in front of him, Madea had already made a conclusion about this young man: he was probably the kind of young and ignorant and simple-minded guy. I haven't realized that my line of people has been assigned.

After the dìdū came out, along the way, everyone's interest was not high, and the only one who still maintained a leisurely demeanor was the only young master Du Wei.

Although he was assigned, no one had ever heard this young master complain even a word. Every day he sat in the carriage and read the books brought from home, rarely spoke, and had a mild attitude towards people.

Putting away the distractions in her head, Madeh shouted loudly, motioning for everyone to speed up. This former groom, the current head manager, has a pretty good mentality. At least he was very good at comforting himself: whatever he did, whether it was a distribution or anything, he was just a little groom in the past. Being able to have today is already a blessing to the young master. Although he is only a "general manager" who has been assigned, at least a few more gold coins per month are paid in salary, which is a fact!

Touching the hard money bag in his arms, a smile spread across the face of Master Made.

Well, I heard that the province of Kot is located in the southern part of the empire, and the girls in the south are delicate-skinned and petite, so maybe my old Mada can marry a woman here.

Giant Wood is the only town within a radius of 100 miles, and there is only one tavern in this town with hundreds of households, and the name is very simple: Giant Wood Tavern.

Because it is the only tavern, business is not too bad. Cheap liquor jīng drinks, cheap barbecue, cheap jì女...... Even people at the bottom of society need some joy in life, don't they?

When Du Wei's motorcade arrived in front of the tavern, Du Wei looked up and closed the book in his hand. The lantern in the carriage was then extinguished.

As he stepped out of the carriage, Du Wei glanced up at the rusty tin sign hanging on the tavern, swaying back and forth in the wind, the noise of the inside of the door, and the lively lights on the window.

When Du Wei and his party walked into the tavern, they immediately attracted the attention of the insiders. After all, a group of knights in light armor poured in from this small tavern, which was still very eye-catching.

Du Wei was the last to enter, and by the time he walked in, the knights had done their job well: clearing a clearing, a clean table, and enclosing Du Wei in a safe circle.

Everyone in the tavern was looking at Du Wei, looking at the young-looking, half-grown child.

Du Wei's figure is quite tall, after all, he was born in the Rollin family, a martial arts family, but his body is a little thinner, and the beautiful dress on his body, even the neckline and cuffs are embellished with lace, showing his aristocratic identity, except for the red sè hair of the typical Rollin family blood is a little too eye-catching, he looks more of a weak impression.

His face was pale, his body was slender, white and silent, and he was holding a book in his hand.

The other knights had already begun to carry their luggage, Madeh threw out a few gold coins, the tavern owner immediately cleared a few clean rooms, arranged for people to feed the horses, and so on.

At this moment, Du Wei was enduring all kinds of strange stares from him.

"Oh, it seems! ”

"Ah, how could a noble lord come to our place. ”

"Boss, I think you should collect the chair this guy sat on, maybe you can sell it for a good price!"

After a brief silence, the people in the tavern resumed their buzz, and everyone was talking about Du Wei and his party. Obviously, it is a very rare thing to run into such a small place, in such a cheap tavern, a noble man in fancy clothes.

There were also a few women with heavy makeup, scantily dressed, shoulders exposed, and rǔgou who tried to squeeze over and talk to Du Wei, but Old Mada did his job well and drove these jì women away.

In the middle of pushing Sang, after the two jì girls were pushed aside, they couldn't help but point at Madea and scold a few words, those rural slang, old Madeh didn't care, but immediately ran next to a drunkard and hugged the jì girl: "Aha, my little baby, what's so good about that little brat, let the uncle hurt you." After saying that, he pinched the woman's ass hard, and the woman smiled, and immediately sat down in the drunkard's arms.

Du Wei's face was calm, he drank a glass of wine quietly, and even when the people around him pointed at him, he only frowned slightly.

The guards and knights next to them were also a little unkind, and in this place full of cheap liquor and fat powder, these knights couldn't help but start to lament their future prospects.

Alas, it would be nice to stay in the world of flowers in dìdū!

At that moment, there was a bang, and the door of the tavern was pushed open, and a group of people walked in from the outside. There were three men and one woman who came in, and judging from their dusty faces and the obviously valuable costumes, it was obvious that none of them were locals, but also outsiders like Du Wei and them.

What made the people in the tavern silent for a moment was that all the men's eyes were focused on the girl among the few people who walked in almost immediately.

This is a girl about ten years old, with long brown hair and a gorgeous face, such a face obviously has an aggressive charm for different xìng! And she is wearing a close-fitting leather armor, obviously the leather armor is of the highest quality, and I don't know what kind of monster skin it is made of, exuding a blue face, and some strange patterns are engraved on it. And her lower body is even more angry, she is actually wearing shorts, exposing all her snow-white plump thighs! And a belt is tied to her thigh, and a dagger is stuck in it! She has a scimitar hanging from her waist, and behind her she is carrying a small jīng bow, and there is a row of small silver arrows in the quiver!

Judging from the bright silver of the arrow, Du Wei immediately recognized that it was made of pure silver! A bow and arrow made of this kind of pure silver was really a luxury!

The round thighs of this gorgeous girl immediately became the focus of the attention of many men in the tavern! And she seemed to bend down inadvertently, and the neckline of her chic leather armor chest immediately exposed a snow-white and pink rǔ groove, which immediately made the eyes of the two drunks sitting close to them so wide that even the wine glasses in their hands fell to the ground.

Several of the male companions beside the girl, a strong man with a figure like a bull, wearing heavy armor and carrying a heavy shield behind him. Judging by the aura on his face, the astonishing muscles on his bare arms, and a few scars, this was a powerful warrior. The other tall and thin fellow, who looked very sharp, had a longbow hanging from his shoulders, and judging from the black sè bowstring, the slender and powerful fingers, and the black sè iron ring on his fingers, this man must have the horns of an archer.

And the last guy is what Du Wei pays the most attention to!

This is a man dressed in a gray robe, his appearance is very ordinary, but his eyes always flash with a cold light. His outfit was so simple that the people around him seemed to ignore him.

However, Du Wei paid the most attention to this guy! because his whole body was shrouded in robes, and on his chest was a badge in the shape of a silver leaf!

The people of this small place didn't recognize the badge, but Du Wei did! and some of the well-informed Rollin Guardsmen around him did.

This last guy in a gray robe was actually a magician, although it was only the lowest level magician wearing a silver leaf badge......

But the silver leaf badge on his chest is undoubtedly a genuine magician who has passed the certification of the Magic Society!

After staring at the badge carefully for a while, a thought immediately came to Du Wei's heart......
