Don't meddle?

Thor leaned over, "Ada, is there anything going on in your town?" ”

“…… You'll find out later. Ada didn't explain, and continued to hurry.

Seeing that the other party was reluctant to elaborate, Thor had to follow honestly first.

As he got closer, he saw that the town wall faced the main road, and two doors had been opened.

A gate, hooped with heavy wooden stakes, is half a meter higher than the enclosure wall.

A small door, more than two meters high, very narrow.

At this time, the sky is getting darker and darker, and the gate of the town is closed, and the small gate is open.

There was a soldier in armour, holding an iron-tipped wooden gun, leaning against the wall, yawning listlessly.

Thor looked around, but didn't see the second man dressed as a soldier.

"Ada, do you have so few guards in town? I remember it's next to the border, right? Is it safe? ”

Ada replied in a suppressed voice, "In the past few years, our principality has been at war with the principality of Knas in the north. One of the town's wizards and most of the guards were transferred to the defense. ”

"Huh?" Thor looked flustered, "Who cares about the safety of the town?" ”

Thor's voice seemed to be a little louder, causing the squinting soldier to look up at him.

Ada quickly pulled Thor aside and smiled at the soldier.

The soldier ignored them, didn't collect the tax he had imagined, and let them into the town.

After entering the town and walking a long way, Ada pulled Thor to a stop on the side of a deserted street.

He frowned and looked at Thor, "There are wizards' men in town, you should be cautious in what you say in the future, so as not to attract their attention." ”

"I'm sorry." Saul honestly apologized, "I've suffered a lot outside, and I just want to find a stable place to settle down. I'm afraid that I've finally come here, only to find out that this place can't be my home. ”

Thor hung his head, looking depressed.

Ada on the other side saw such a sol, and he couldn't say anything about the accusations.

He wiped his sweaty short hair and said helplessly: "What's the matter, you can just ask me when you go back." Don't talk and ask on the street. ”

"Okay, okay." Thor agreed on a winning streak.

But Thor has already decided to come out early tomorrow morning to inquire about the news.

After all, the gossip of the masses is a very important source of intelligence.

However, in order not to affect this honest and kind Ada, he will try to find some suitable people and listen covertly.

After that, Saul behaved honestly.

Ada looked back at Thor from time to time, and saw that he was obediently not running around and asking, and his expression was very satisfied.

Even though it was getting dark, there were still quite a few people on the streets of the town.

Wealthy families have begun to light their lights, and those who are not wealthy have quickened their hands and feet, hoping to finish their work before dark.

Adults who have had a hard day begin to prepare for falling asleep after dark.

The children were outside trying to delay their time home.

Ada was silent all the way, and he only nodded when he met someone, unlike the person outside the town who would take the initiative to stop his fellow villagers who hadn't seen him for many years.

It wasn't until he turned into an alley that Ada's tense shoulders slowly lowered.

The path in this alley is very rough.

It can't be compared with the main road of the town outside, and the potholes are very difficult to walk. I don't know if it has rained before, and there is a lot of water in some low-lying places, and you need to put stones on it to avoid your cloth shoes getting wet.

Thor also learned from Ada to walk on the stones. It's just that his feet are a little heavy, and the bottom of the stone is not flat, and there is a little splash, almost splashing on the passers-by next to him.

After the passerby dodged away, he first scolded, "Be careful! But he smiled when he saw Ada in front of Thor.

"Young, Ada is back?"

"Aunt Jenny." Ada smiled innocently.

Aunt Jenny carried a basket in her arms and reached out to pull out a string of red peppers.

"This is my freshly dried one, and I'll eat it when I take it back." Ignoring Ada's refusal, she stuffed the chili pepper into the wooden basket that Ada was carrying, "It's not too spicy, Penny can eat it, and it's time for her to practice her mouth." ”

Aunt Jenny smiled heartily.

Ada was honest, he couldn't push it, and he was embarrassed to accept it.

Aunt Jenny turned her eyes to Thor and swept up and down, with a smile on her face, "Come to visit relatives?" ”

Thor grinned, but didn't answer.

Ada hurriedly took over the conversation, "It's a fellow countryman, I can't live outside, come to me." ”

This time, Aunt Jenny's gaze was even more unscrupulous.

"Just came to town...... The young man looks very energetic, but he has lost a little weight. Remember to work harder, and you will be strong when you work. ”

"Ahh Ada Tisol responded and hurriedly pulled Sol away.

As they walked on, they were confronted by a strong bearded man carrying a thin old man.

In the cool early spring, the strong man didn't wear much.

His collar was wide open, revealing his strong pecs. Wearing a scimitar at his waist, he slapped the strong man's thigh from time to time.

"Captain Jeff!" Ada greeted him warmly this time, "You're helping to send the old madman back again." ”

Captain Jeff, who was tall and tall, brought the little old man in his hand.

Ada hurriedly handed the hoe and basket in his hand to Thor and stepped forward to take the little old man.

The old madman went to the mayor again to tell him about his miserable past. If I hadn't pulled it fast, he would have been beaten up today. ”

Captain Jeff's hands also seemed to be sore, and he said as he rubbed his wrists.

As if in response to the situation, the old madman who was picked up by Ada suddenly shouted loudly.

"barbarian!"

Everyone is used to the fact that crazy people don't come coldly.

Only Thor glanced sideways, but felt that the old madman's eyes were empty but not confused.

Not like a madman, but like a man who has no hope of life.

"Then I'll take him back, would you like Captain Jeff to come in and have a drink?"

Captain Jeff waved his hand, turned and left, "No, I'm going back on patrol." ”

Ada watched Captain Jeff's back leave with a warm smile on his face.

Then the old madman cried out again: "You can't trade with the barbarians!" ”

The voice was miserable.

Thor noticed that Captain Jeff, who was leaving, was stunned, and his right hand seemed to subconsciously support the scimitar at his waist.

But he didn't look back, didn't say anything, just kept the posture of holding the knife and walked away quickly.

Ada was so focused on shutting up the old madman in his arms that he didn't notice Captain Jeff's strangeness at all.

"Forget it, Thor, you put things aside and get a hand."

The noisy old madman made Ada a little unbearable, so he could only ask the "skinny" Thor for help.

Thor threw away the stick in his hand, transferred the hoe and the basket to his right hand, and put his left hand under the old madman's armpit with a single lift—and lifted the old madman who was about to slide to the ground.

"Uh......" Ada felt the weight on his arm be much lighter, and looked at Thor in surprise, "You have a lot of strength." ”

Sol said nonchalantly: "Begging for life, practiced." ”

"Now I really believe that you have made it all the way by yourself."

Ada and Thor carried the old madman into a small courtyard.

The house where Ada lives is a narrow yard.

This courtyard is full of houses. Several hemp ropes run through it, and on them hang underwear, outer clothes, shoes, mattresses, and wild vegetables and hemp ropes.

Through the scattered items hanging from the twine, the two saw a man pouting his buttocks, leaning against the wooden window of one of the rooms, and peering inside.

When Ada saw this, he immediately became angry!

"Jayins! You bastard, stay away from my sister! ”
