Chapter 18: The Mermaid Hey, don't rip off my clothes
Homecoming Interlude (9)
In the inn, the setting sun left a gap in the white curtain that was blown by the breeze, and rushed in. The fresh little flowers on the table have been passing by time, hanging their heads. Unfortunately, no one cares at this time.
In the main hall of the room, a group of strong men are standing in a group, and in the middle is the shadow of the sun that is forced into a dark blue high-backed soft chair.
"Luo. Are you going to check Brother Ying again and see if he's injured again?" said Melson in a hurry.
"Yes, yes, such a big battle, I don't know what the hell that bastard did, suddenly made such a big bright light, and went towards Brother Shadow. I thought this was the end. And then disappear without knowing what happened. Haven't figured out what the hell happened to Nima. Miga said unwillingly.
"It's strange when you get it. Mi Jian complained about the daily appearance of his brothers.
"It's a ball of light. Mott explained to Robert, who looked unaware. The rest of them may not know, but he does. He knew what he had done.
"What!?" Robert was startled, and quickened his movements to pick up Sunshadow's clothes.
Sunshadow was a little speechless, grabbing the clothes on his body and said soothingly. "Luo, I'm fine, really. ”
On this continent, while civilization continues to evolve, magic is gradually being lost, and the era of great magic is long gone. Magic and forbidden arts have become rare, and most people can only know a few words from books, let alone master them. But there is one exception, and that is the Holy Court of Light. It is rumored that the Holy Court has many books left over from the era of magic, and these books can allow gifted people to appreciate the magic of magic, and can make many impossible things possible, which has also become the real reason why the Holy Court of Light can entrench itself in the continent and overwhelm other countries.
Another rumor that is the real culprit of the demise of the Great Magic Age is the fall of the goddess Yulia of Light!
But at this time, they have no way of knowing what the truth is. The only undeniable reality is that magicians are one out of ten thousand, and magical attacks are even rarer. They had no idea that a small deacon in charge of such a remote town would use such a rare attack.
"No way. Let me see. I have heard of patients who have been treated with internal injuries, ranging from severe injuries to severe injuries that are difficult to recover. You've already been injured, and you're being attacked again before you're healed, so be sure to take a good look at it. Robert said.
Sunshadow pulls out the silver sword from his bosom and hands it to Robert. "I didn't really need to get hurt and I didn't feel uncomfortable. I don't know what's going on, but it's certain that it has blocked for me, and something has changed. At this point, Sunshadow's face was gloomy, and the person who rarely showed his emotions showed a real and irrepressible anger in this matter, which showed the importance of this sword to him.
Robert carefully took the silver sword, he had always been knowledgeable, but he was also confused about the situation in front of him. He didn't know that the rare magic was easily dissolved by a small silver sword with a length of inches, and the person who was attacked was unscathed.
The blade of the sword he looked at carefully, the body of the sword was engraved with words that he could not read, and although the blade was not damaged, it was indeed not as shiny as when he first saw it, as if it had fallen into a dead sleep.
Sunshadow handed the sword to Robert in the hope that he would give him some advice on the situation with the silver sword.
Robert looked back and forth carefully, shook his head, and said. "I haven't studied this very well and I've never heard of this before. But Boss Peng knows a sword-casting master, he is very proficient in all kinds of sword-casting situations, and when he returns to the imperial capital, he will go to meet Boss Peng together, maybe he can see some clues. ”
Sunshadow was disappointed by Robert's shake of his head, but his brow furrowed a little when he heard the latter words.
"So it's really cheap to cut off one of his hands, so you should kill him. Miga interjected, indignant. "He clearly had the intention of taking Brother Shadow's life, if it weren't for this sword, Brother Shadow would be a corpse. ”
"Just you can talk. Mi Jian burst with a blow. "I'm embarrassed to say, why did you go when Brother Ying was attacked. ”
"Who would have thought he would be that ghost. I didn't expect that he was even more stupid than Lao Tzu, in that case, it was useless if he attacked or not, he still attacked. Miga said helplessly.
"You know you're stupid. Melson complained.
"Are you embarrassed to say me? didn't you expect that?" retorted Miga.
"Didn't I find out later? ”
"That's what you know? That's when Brother Ying said okay. You yellow-haired head, it's not a paste in it. ”
"Who's the yellow-haired head!, old man, it's blonde! You elm head!" Melson retorted.
Isn't your point to refute the paste?Alas, forget it, Mi Jian looked at the two living treasures speechlessly, and turned his head to look, ignoring their quarrel, and was carefully wrapping the silver sword again and preparing to put it into the sunshadow in his arms. He said curiously. "So, Brother Shadow, how did you come up with the reason for the attack of the vein and Adol? I wasn't there at the time, so tell me about it again. I'd love to know. ”
"Yes, yes, Brother Shadow, how do you know. Hearing Miken's question, Miga immediately stopped arguing and looked at Sunkage.
"Wait!" Robert said to Sunshadow, who was about to explain. Under the incomprehensible gaze of everyone, leave. After a while, he came back with a white plate with spirits, an inventory, and a glass of hot milk.
This is to turn on the story mode. Everyone consciously took their share, and each found a chair of their choice and sat down.
Facing everyone's curious baby eyes, Sun Shadow raised her eyebrows a little helplessly. For this group of people, these childish behaviors, he really can't hate.
"What do you want to know?" asked Nikkage.
"How are you really a vein?" Mi Jian asked. "Is it by virtue of their structure and personnel?"
Sunshadow nodded. "The interests are so great that the two sides can coexist peacefully, and the personnel and material resources are sufficient, in this remote place, it can still be concealed so closely, except that the treasure is the ore vein, and their entrenched plan is so that they want to directly repair an indoctrination hall for long-term cover, and the barracks have no daytime drills, except for the ore veins, do not make a second inference. ”
"Indeed, no secret is more valuable than a vein. Xiaoying, did you say that he knew about it in the town? Are you going to ask him one day? But he died on our way to find him. Robert said meaningfully.
"Anyone doesn't want us to ask the mayor?" asked Melson.
"This is to ask the real purpose of the people who brought us here. Sunshadow said.
"Didn't you tell us to find a girl?" asked Miga.
Sunshadow shook her head and explained. "It's not so much about finding the maiden as it is about discovering the veins. so that the veins can no longer be developed. And I think the mayor is aware of the veins. I'm afraid the whole town knows about it. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and they are so close that there is no reason not to know about it.
But there are still no outsiders who know about it, which can only show that they have suffered serious oppression. Perhaps not only was speech controlled, but also forced by coolies and plundered by money. So much so that the town can't even communicate with the outside world, and even the only inn in the town has to be closed. And this is not an overnight thing, and it is very likely that it has been going on for a long time. The mayor and the townspeople should be used to it.
But the mayor went out and found us at this point. He should know very well what will happen when we know the veins. Once we know about the veins, we are not far off when the entire empire will know about them. He didn't want to say it before, why did he want to say it now.
I think the mayor's trip must have been something Edward and the others didn't expect. The mayor can endure their oppression of the townspeople, and he can endure to keep silent and not reveal the secrets of the great powers, but he can't stand their ignorance of the disappearance of the girl. What's more, someone guided him, just as we were to check the army and the indoctrination, telling him that the girl was cruelly treated and died. If I'm not mistaken, the mayor has a dead daughter. Only in this way can irreplaceable resonance encourage the old man who was originally afraid of things. ”
"The mayor's daughter was killed and thrown into the wilderness and eaten by wild dogs. Because the mayor's wife resented his inaction, she took her son to live far away in Tre Town, and did not come to live with Danfeng Town. Robert added. "Today, I read the information of the people in the town, and I inquired with the people in the office, and I only found out today. ”
The others who didn't know about it all showed incredible expressions.
"Edward, they don't even know about it. Mott said, still not believing that Edward would lie.
"There are two possibilities, one is that the mayor doesn't know about it, Edward doesn't know about it, and it's the messenger who deceived both sides. The other is that the mayor has been led to believe that they did it. Whatever the case may be, we don't have a way to know for sure right now. But one thing that can be known is that this third party does not want us to confirm which situation it is, because either case can only prove the existence of a third party. ”
"This third party killed the girl in order for us to discover the ore vein?" Mi Jian asked suspiciously.
"Didn't Brother Ying say that they should get used to it?" Mi Jia saw that it was rare for him to understand, but Mi Jian didn't understand the situation, and said proudly.
"It's not. Kill the girl, I don't know why. But we were chosen to check it for the sake of the veins. Sunshadow continued to explain to Mi Jian. "Killing the girl is something he has already done, he can not show himself in the case of self-examination in the town, and he should not be afraid of Edward's intervention. But he led the mayor to us. It can only be shown that the only thing he can't do when he is extremely confident and not afraid to expose himself is to stop working on the mine. He knows that we are the only ones who can do it. ”
"So, there must be some secret in the veins that he has to risk being exposed, and he has no reason to stop working?" asked Mott.
"We're being underestimated. Robert said. "If we stop the veins, will we dig up the truth together?"
"Justifying the means for the sake of the end, and being so conceited. I have to say that in such a small town, it is rare to have such a courageous person. Nikkage commented pertinently.
"Damn, I know who had to cut him. Brother Ying, who do you say, Lao Tzu is going to chop him up and feed the dog now, but look down on us, I'm really impatient. Miga jumped up and drew his knife.
"Let's go to the vein tomorrow. We also see this hidden treasure. Instead of answering Micah, the Shadow assigns a task for tomorrow. After that, get ready to get up.
"Brother Shadow, you haven't said it, you haven't said it, how do you know that Adore is for that woman?" Mi Jian was curious about the baby, and when he saw that Riying was about to leave, he immediately remembered that he still had doubts in his heart. An expression I haven't heard enough.
