Raging fire engulfs Trick's mansion like a beast.

Crumbling floors, smoky statues, and precious frescoes engulfed in flames.

In the blazing dining room, Trick's son is calmly sitting at a table that is already on fire. Protected by the Soul Shield, he took the last bite of cheese, wiped his lips with a white handkerchief, and threw it into the fire beside him.

"Looks like we can't get out?" He asked.

"If the young master doesn't believe me, he might as well rush out and try it like those guards." In the corner sat a black-cloaked servant, whose hoarse voice was accompanied by the beeping of flames, "There are traps everywhere outside the house, and the mob's hoes and nail rakes. ”

The young master sneered, "These damned mobs, when my father returns, I must kill them all and hang the corpses at the door of the chapel." ”

"Young Master, don't worry, I already sent a secret report to Ice Wolf Castle last night, and the 'Heavenly Demon Mecha' will arrive here soon."

"So we just have to stall as long as we can, right?" The young master raised his glass to him, although the cup was long empty.

The servant nodded, "It's just that this room probably won't last long." ”

The main structure of the house has been burned down, and even if it has not been burned to death, it will be buried in the following landslide.

"Is there anything else you can do?" The young master asked.

"I'm just a secret agent, and I'm not good at saving people." Under the minion's dark cloak, the corners of the greedy mouth were revealed.

"Ventilation is one price, and saving people is another." The young master hung a palm-sized family crest around his neck, "Our family is never stingy. ”

"In that case, then I'll show you a way out." The servant smiled and slowly stood up, the cloak slipping from his back, "Who made me the all-powerful 'Weasel' Cuiyi?" ”

The news that the Fire Princess was about to rescue the laborers had already spread throughout the town, and almost all the townspeople had gathered in front of the mansion that Trick had burned. They laughed at the embarrassed appearance of the guards who had escaped from the fire and stepped on the traps, and craned their necks to look at the corner of the forest at the intersection of the town.

Deafening cheers were heard in the distance, and a huge contingent of laborers appeared at the entrance of the town.

The people of the town were boiling. Two waves of people gathered together, the old man greeting the child, the young man hugging his spouse, the lovers kissing each other, and everywhere there were cries of reunion after a long absence.

Cruise, who had been waiting for a long time, finally let go of the anxiety in his heart, "Your Royal Highness the princess is finally here, as you imagined, in this cold and dry weather, they have no water source to fight the fire. ”

"Big man, it's yours!" Lydia patted Cruise on the shoulder, "Are those crouching in the corner all captives?" ”

Cruise nodded, "Their wounds have been bandaged, and all their weapons have been collected. However, the son of Priest Trick has never been found. ”

"Oh?" Lydia raised an eyebrow, "Looks like someone is going to resist?" ”

At that moment, a hoarse cry suddenly came from the back of the house.

"Found it! I've got Trick's son! Cui Yi proudly dragged the young master with five flowers tied up, and came out with his head held high to ask for credit, "This guy still wants to escape from the hole in the wall in the backyard, and I happened to see it." ”

Cruise tapped on his chest and exclaimed, "Well, you've done a great job. ”

"Well done." Lydia smiled happily, "Bring them all to the square, it's time to make everything clear." ”

In front of Trick's mansion is the square, and in the center of the square is the gallows he built. Over the years, I have lost count of how many innocent people were hanged by him, and how many unjust souls haunted day and night.

The first to be brought in was Trick's butler, the old guy who did too much to bully the townspeople on weekdays. Now the hatred has long been ignited, and in the midst of the people's curses, he has become the first person to be hanged.

Then there were the assistants and counselors of the priest's house, who were undoubtedly looting for money, and who were spying on bad ideas and sycophants. Now one by one, like air-dried sausages, they are hung one after another.

However, when Trick's wife was taken to the gallows, the crowd suddenly fell silent.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, I'm afraid there's something I have to let you take a look at first." Cruise whispered behind him, then pulled out a broken dog chain and placed it in Lydia's palm.

Lydia gave him a surprised look, "What does this mean?" ”

"This woman was wearing this when she was found." Cruise whispered, "I think ......"

"Your Royal Highness, please let her go!" An old man suddenly stood up, "She has been tortured for half her life, and she is innocent." ”

Lydia nodded, motioning for the old man to continue.

"She was just an ordinary shepherdess, and Trick forced her father to marry her, so he hanged her parents here." The old man struck the ground with his cane and said angrily, "Those wicked people have tied this girl back and kept her in the corral with the cattle and sheep......

Many townspeople stood behind the old man, "Your Royal Highness Princess, Trick is a heinous crime, but it has nothing to do with her. ”

"I see." Lydia held up the chain in her hand, "There is human and physical evidence to prove that she is nominally Trick's wife, but in fact she is a victim." She is not guilty, so let's ask the poor lady to come down. ”

The last was Trick's son.

As soon as he appeared on the scene, the silent villagers were furious again!

"Hang him!"

"Chop off his hands!"

"Burn at the stake! Burn this demon! ”

Lydia was caught by surprise by the sudden cry, and the phrase "he's still a child" came out of her mouth, but it was covered up by people's excitement.

Seeing that the scene was about to get out of control, Cruise beside him roared: "Roar! Be quiet! Come forward one by one, and let the merciful princess judge your suffering! ”

A woman with a basket on her back stood up and accused him of indulging in hounds and maiming her husband. There were angry couples who cried that he burned their children alive; The blindfolded old man was helped out and angrily accused him of gouging out his eyes......

The young master's evil deeds were exposed one after another, and Lydia broke out in a cold sweat behind her back, secretly glad that she didn't express her opinion prematurely just now: "I can't see that I'm just a child, but I'm even more vicious than the demon race." ”

As people were crying against the vicious young master, a thunderous sound suddenly came from the entrance of the town.

The sound is getting louder and closer. With a bang, a pitch-black six-wheeler shaped like a drop of water knocked down several pine trees and rushed into town.

"Soul Stone Express!" Cui Yi suddenly drew his knife, cut off the young master's restraints with a single sword, and put the knife on Lydia's neck, "The Heavenly Demon Mecha will be here soon, you mobs don't kneel down quickly!" ”

The untied young master pulled out his hidden dagger and put it on Lydia's body, shouting at Cruise: "Do you hear me, don't put down your weapons quickly!" ”

The Soul Stone Express roared into the square, and the people began to flee in all directions, and the laborers panicked, but Cruise and the Canines stood there indifferent, as if they had become stone people.

"Bastard, you think I wouldn't dare kill her?" The angry young master glared at them viciously, "Then let you see how to strangle her to death with a person's intestines!" ”

As he spoke, the young master's dagger had already stabbed Lydia in the abdomen!
