Chapter 247: The moon is dark and the wind is high
,
※。 The time between the armor and the face fell silent, and everyone looked at Ye in embarrassment
Lorraine thought for a moment, then bit it and said. If you can't eat the meat that is brought to your mouth, you will be damned. ”
Vera thought of a large amount of money in front of her, but she couldn't reach for it, so she couldn't help but hold her skirt with both hands, turned around in a straight circle in the room, and said anxiously: "Then what should I do? Young master, maybe I won't be able to earn so much money in my life."
Lorraine shook her hand and gave Vera a shudder, saying, "Bah, bah, childish words." Can I be deceived by an old rabbit's tricks, young master? I'll go to Kita, Nicole, and draw a copy of this map, but don't draw any of the standard or anything. ”
Catherine said, "You still need to say it." ”
As he spoke, he took out a pen and paper and traced the map on the table.
Soon. Kitra was called into the house, and as soon as he entered the door, he bowed to Lorraine and said, "Your Excellency, you called me?"
Lorraine nodded and said, "Well, you're an old Abdewad, and we need your help." ”
Kitra hurriedly said, "Obey your lordship's orders. ”
Lorraine said: "It's a bit tricky, you know, that's it, let's put it this way, Kita, can I trust you?"
Kitra was stunned for a moment, then bent down deeply and said, "Since I followed the adult, I have sold this old life to the adult, as long as the adult can avenge me, I can do anything for the adult." ”
Lorraine nodded and said, "Well, well, this matter also has something to do with old Despie, it is a beautiful thing to dig into his corner, you will definitely like it, but you can't tell anyone." ”
When Kitra heard that Lorraine had something to do with old Despie, she immediately laughed and said, "Please rest assured, my lordship. ”
Lorraine handed Catherine's map to Kitra and said, "Help me see this, I'm sure old Despie has hidden some shady things here." Can you tell this, where the hell is the place?"
Kitra took the map and looked at the light carefully, and Lorraine and Vera both stared at Kitra with wide eyes and looked at Kitra without blinking.
Vera clenched her fists nervously, and Leo bit her fingers and looked at Kita.
After a while, Kitra raised his head, and suddenly saw several people in the room looking at him nervously, and couldn't help but be startled, and shook with the map in his hand.
Kitra took a breath, shook his head and said, "Please forgive me, I really can't see that this is there, the map is too sketchy, a place like this." The Abdwad neighborhood is everywhere. ”
"Ahh
Lorraine also frowned, and said unrelentingly: "If you think about it carefully, those rural places that have something to do with old Despie. Wu thinks you should have collected a lot of this information. ”
Kitra held up the map, looked at it carefully, and then said: "Don't tell you, as for how many estates old Despie has, old Despi himself doesn't necessarily know as much as I know, even many unknown places where old Despi kept his lover, I know, but none of those places are similar to the terrain drawn on the map." ”
Leo muttered, "It's completely out of the way now." ”
Vera said with a bitter face, "Woo!" ”
Catherine also said: "It's okay, Lorraine, it's a big deal that we send people out and investigate slowly." You can always find it. ”
Lorraine said, "Can't wait, after a long time, those wolves will know." By that time, as soon as they came up, we would only have one sip of soup left to drink. ”
He thought for a moment, and then said to Kita, "So" Could this not be the place that old Despie bought, but has something to do with old Despie, such as his old home or something. ”
Kitra said: "My lord, old Despi is from Pircenza, and he was born in the city. But. Wait," as if she had thought of something, Kitra rubbed her head with her hand and said, "Can you give me a map?"
"Here, here," Leo cried out, "the map is here."
Kitra walked over to her desk, where Lorraine and Vera gathered around her. Look at him nervously.
Kita's finger swiped across the map. Finally, he pointed to a place and said, "My lord, this is old Despie's hometown." ”
After saying that, he pointed his finger down and said, "This is the town of Propia, a place dedicated to the production of wine.
This area is full of vineyards. Many nobles have built wine farms here, and the village depicted on this map is very similar to several wineries gathered together, and these two roads can also match the map. ”
He paused, then added: "In Almohads, sometimes we call vineyards gardens. ”
Leo looked at the two maps, then cheered and shouted, "Copy the guys, copy their nest." ”
Vera nodded heavily at Leo, then shook her fist and furrowed her faint eyebrows that are characteristic of young girls. Said viciously: "That's right. Gotta grab everything."
Catherine patted her plump breasts and gasped.
Lorraine looked at Kitra and said uneasily, "Are you sure?"
Kitra smiled bitterly and said, "Of course not, my lord, I'm just guessing."
Lorraine froze, he lowered his head, walked back and forth in the house a few times, then gritted his teeth, and said: "It's okay, it's okay, it's not far away, we will go out tonight, and Kitra will lead a ditch to take us over." ”
"Of course, sir. I know how to get around. Kitra said calmly.
Lorraine asked, "Well, is there a guard or anything like that, or a nobleman's bodyguard?"
"As far as I know," said Kita, "there may be a few noble guards and the like, but they are all poor peasants. ”
"Well, without further ado, we still have a few armed horses here, and it's only two or three hours away to catch the carriage. Don't take the soldiers outside the door. Just a few of us had it to ourselves. Lorraine said.
Vera jumped up with excitement.
"Yes," Leo cheered, "let's go and rob the dragon's treasure." ”
Vera was stunned for a moment, then turned her head and looked Leo up and down carefully, then shook her head and said seriously: "With your body, it's not enough to stuff your teeth." Those old guys value money more than their lives."
While everyone was rejoicing, they didn't notice the inappropriateness in her tone.
Catherine thought for a while, but was still a little uneasy, and then said: "Since you don't bring your men, then take Carter and all the guards, we can rest assured that Carthus is a few of us, just a few of us are too dangerous." ”
Lorraine said, "Okay, just take the guards." Call Carthus in. ”
As soon as she heard Catherine's order that she was going out on an outing, and by the way, she would choose a place to live outside the city, and it was too chaotic in the city of Abdwad, although Carter was strange, but looking at Leo and the mysterious appearance of God Lorraine, selling yellow discs, he immediately knew what was hidden in this piece, but he didn't say anything, and as soon as he turned around, he gathered the guards.
Catherine's guards were soon ready to stop, and Lorraine told each of them to prepare two more horses and pull two more carriages.
A group of people exited Lorraine's headquarters through the side door, and Carter nodded to the guarding soldiers, said hello, and went out.
The knights escorted the convoy straight to the west gate, which led to the port of Abdwad, and even at night, there were constant comings and goings of the raiders on the road, transporting supplies or rotating personnel, and there were many cavalry wagons.
Lorraine, they were mixed in with the crusade army, and the Chinese army came out of the city gates. Then turn onto a road and go around for most of the circle before turning to the road leading to the town of Propia.
After a long period of tossing, it was already dark. The bright moon also rose from the east, silently spreading its light all over the land.
After they had run along the avenue for some time, Lorraine glanced back.
In the dim moonlight, the city of Abdwad was no longer visible, and the woods on both sides of the road showed the kind of shadows that wanted to suck people in, and from the woods there was a constant whining of wind and the unpleasant sound of birds.
Probably because it was used to transport wine, the quality of this road was good, there were no lights in the whole area, and the guards did not speak, their hands pressed swords and crossbows, and they looked around vigilantly, always on guard. In case someone sneaks up on you.
The only sound of Lorraine's horses' hooves and wheels could be heard on the road, and Lorraine suddenly opened the window and said to the guards, "Stop." ”
"Stop," the guards whispered orders to each other.
They all reined in their horses, and the whole group soon stopped.
Catherine wondered Ran Lorraine: "Why are you stopping? aren't we still in a hurry?"
Lorraine jumped out of the carriage, looked up at the sky, and said, "Well, the moon is dark and the wind is high. ”
Then he said to Catherine: "This kind of good weather for murder and arson, of course, must be well prepared, and everyone wraps up the horses' hooves." ”
The latter sentence was addressed to the guards.
The guards were stunned for a moment, and then they all chuckled quietly with an ominous meaning.
Carthus said, "Lord Lorraine is going to take the brothers into the business of robbing houses. ”
The guards have all personally experienced Lorraine's ability to hold money, and they are all excited at the moment, our sister's white face is good, this is to take everyone to make a lot of money
The guards quickly packed up their horses, weighed them, and headed straight for their goal.
After another hour or so, the team turned a hillside, and in the hazy moonlight they could see a valley a few miles away, and on the hillside there were the dark shadows of several large compounds.
Lorraine stopped the team, jumped out of the carriage himself, looked at the valley in front of him, and said: "Get here first, be careful that the enemy has sent a secret sentry inside, Vera and I will go in and take a look, feel the situation and come out." ”
Vera jumped out of the car excitedly and said, "Okay, young master." ”
Catherine looked at the two of them with some concern, and then said, "Be careful, if there is danger, it will be signaled."
Lorraine drew his musket, looked at it with his hammer, and said, "Don't worry, it's just sneaking in, and you won't fight them." ”
Vera took out her large magic wand and said confidently, "I'm ready!"
Lorraine looked back at Adele sitting in the carriage, and saw that her peerless beauty was still full of concern, so she couldn't help but smile slightly, and then said, "Very good, let's go out." ”
Vera's eyesight was almost untouched by the sound of her nose in the dark environment, and she took a few steps and jumped in front of Lorraine to lead the way.
Instead of taking the main road, they chose to go down the hillside and through the vineyards, where the two men bent down and walked quickly through the neatly arranged plantations.
In a quarter of an hour, Lorraine and Vera walked through the plantation to the side of the hillside village.
Lorraine saw a simple half-stone and half-wood house, low, dilapidated and easy to touch the roof, and the walls were full of holes. Planks and thatch pressed against the roof cutters.
These were peasant houses that lived on the outskirts of the village, and there were no lights or voices.
Vera squatted on the wall and observed for a while, and said to Lorraine: "There is no light on the main road, and there is no light nearby, there is a big courtyard in front." ”
Lorraine nodded, then patted Vera on the shoulder, and the two of them jumped onto the road, sticking to the side of the road towards the center of the village.
Lorraine and Vera twisted and turned, through the messy streets, to the center of the village, where several large courtyards lined the road, all lined with high stone walls and iron gates, through which they could see the houses and winery.
Lorraine compared these compounds with the map, which was just right, and her heart became excited, and she leaned into Vera's ear and said, "That's right, this is it."
Vera was immediately overjoyed, and she raised her fist and wanted to cheer.
Lorraine hurriedly covered her mouth and slapped Vera hard on the ass. Whispered, "Silence."
She felt the smoothness and elasticity coming from the tight and firm buttocks, and she couldn't help but move in her heart, rubbing her fingers, as if there was also a layer of slippery grease on it.
Vera felt a sour tingling sensation like an electric shock coming from her buttocks, and suddenly her blue apricot eyes widened, and then her eyes were covered with a faint mist, and she narrowed slightly.
Although she faintly felt that something was wrong, she still leaned on Lorraine's body and whispered, "Uh-huh, twice."
Lorraine came to her senses, then gently let go of her hand and said, "According to the map, the target is on the far side of the road. I'll drive you up and see. ”
The two came to the bottom of the courtyard wall, Lorraine leaned against the wall, crossed her hands, Vera jumped in front of Lorraine in two steps, Lorraine grabbed Vera's slender and delicate feet, and then lifted it up hard.
Vera immediately put her hands on the wall and put her feet on Lorraine's shoulders.
Lorraine immediately felt his body sink down, grinning at the trampling teeth that Vera stepped on, and said in his heart, "Why is this girl so heavy now?"
Vera leaned against the wall and looked carefully into the courtyard.
After a long moment, she turned and jumped off Lorraine, and then there was a light in it. I didn't see any guards, but I couldn't tell if there was any hidden treasure. ”
Lorraine raised her hand angrily, knocked on her smooth forehead, and said, "Silly girl, can you see this, let's go back." ”
The two of them turned and followed the path back to Catherine.
Catherine was nervously waiting for Lorraine and Vera, standing beside the carriage and craned her neck to look at the dark valley.
Seeing Lorraine and Vera running back, Catherine breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly greeted her, but complained, "Why did you go for so long?"
Leo leaned in and asked nervously, "Is this the soap?"
Lorraine said: "That village is a little bigger than expected, and it matches the map.
Leo jumped up, high-fived him, and said, "Okay."
The Carthusian guards also knew that they had come to dig for treasure, and they also cheered in low voices.
Lorraine said: "There are people in the workshop, it seems that there are quite a few. Guys set up the ballistas, and when they hit him, we'll rush in and get everyone up. Everyone, get your crossbow bolts and weapons ready. We try not to be as silent as possible. ”
Everyone agreed, and they got busy.
Lorraine also prepared the muskets, checked the charge of each gun, and then gave two short guns to Leo and Catherine.
After the group was ready to stop, they discussed the method of the surprise attack, and then focused on the target.
Although the horse's hooves were covered, Lorraine and the others could not help the sound of the carriage rolling on the road, and after entering the village, the guards tried to walk on their feet as much as possible, and at the same time looked around with full vigilance, but until they reached the door of the workshop, there was no accident.
Everyone came to the door of the workshop, and Lorraine asked Vera to stand in the car to monitor the movement in the workshop.
Then he came to Catherine and whispered, "I'll lend you something." ”
As he spoke, he reached out and pulled a card from Catherine's head, then bent down and squatted in front of the door, touched the lock on the door, and stabbed the lock open in three or two clicks.
Leo saw the miraculous technique, his eyes widened suddenly, and he said excitedly: "This,,This,,How did you get this?"
Lorraine glanced back at him, smiled softly, and said, "If you want to learn, I'll teach you later." ”
With that, he nodded to the guards and stepped aside.
Two guards rushed up and quickly opened the door, and the iron door came out with a loud and piercing "squeak, the sound, which was very clear in the silence of the night."
When the attendants in the carriage saw the door open, they shook the reins, drove the horses, and rushed into the workshop with the cart.
The wheels crushed against the ground, making a bright sound that immediately startled the people in the house.
The people of Lorraine heard loud shouts from inside the house.
"Get up, get up. ”
"Hurry up, there's movement outside"
The carriage came to the middle of the courtyard, and the guards in the back seat swung their ballistas, aimed at the door of the house, and pulled down the bracket, and the crossbow arrows with bursting crystal arrows shot out
