Chapter 5: Something Special
[Since you try a prisoner, gain some proficiency in the prisoner's skill]
[Lockpicking proficiency increased by 178 points]
[Pickpocketing proficiency increased by 98]
...
Looking at the scattered increase in proficiency in the window below, although these skills are of little use to him at the moment, the increase in proficiency still makes Xu Siling feel comfortable.
At least he was right.
Cutting the throat is a type of execution, and he has just cut the throats of the first two robbers, and has not gained any proficiency.
Xu Siling guessed that in order to gain skill proficiency, it was necessary to characterize the enemy as a prisoner.
Didn't Fei'er say that she was the real lord of Raya Town, so wouldn't it be easy for her to convict people on her own territory?
Unexpectedly, Fei'er just opened her mouth simply, and really characterized the robber as a prisoner in Laya Town, and her skill proficiency increased as soon as her head was removed.
Of course, he will not feel any guilt for killing these robbers.
These guys who have fallen into the grass themselves don't know how many lives have been contaminated with their hands, and if they die, they will die.
However, these three robbers were obviously not near Raya Town, and if they were nearby robbers, they would definitely not dare to approach his house.
It's not that he's terrible, it's just a matter of the executioner's identity.
In the Middle Ages, the national conditions were special, from the aristocracy to the thieves, all of whom were religious.
And the executioner is the type of person who is rejected by dogma, so no one likes to take the initiative to approach the executioner.
Especially in private, people will also use false rumors, and the reason why the executioner is contradicted by the Holy Religion must be because the soul of such people is filthy and filthy.
Therefore, the identity of the executioner is extremely embarrassing and lowly in this era.
The operation of the country's towns cannot be separated from the executioner, but everyone dislikes the executioner.
It is even difficult to hear, if there were classes in the Middle Ages.
The status of the prostitute is still higher than that of the executioner, and even the thief and robber look down on the executioner.
Because the profession of prostitute is recognized by the Holy Church, people pay taxes normally, and are protected by the Holy Religion, although the professional status is low, but compared with the executioner, it is indeed much better than the executioner.
Even if Xu Siling was rich, those prostitutes were not willing to do his business, so he knew very well that these three robbers near Raya Town would never dare to approach here.
Of course, not without exceptions...
Xu Siling's brown eyes lifted and looked at Fei'er with her blonde head exposed in the window.
This Fei'er in front of him is a nobleman and the real lord of Raya Town, and after learning the identity of his executioner, he didn't care?
At this time, Xu Siling realized that Fei'er's expression was not quite right, and saw her azure eyes staring at the human head in her hand.
Only then did I realize that even if Fei'er was a nobleman, she was just a little girl under the age of 12...
Although children in the Middle Ages were precocious and receptive, they would have been frightened when they had their heads taken off at close range.
Xu Siling coughed dryly, threw the head on the ground casually, and hurriedly shook off the blood stains on the long sword.
"Lord Raya, it's rude in front of you."
Fei'er came back to her senses and propped her chin at the window with interest: "You don't need to call me lord, I'm not the real lord of Raya Town yet, so you still call me Fei'er." ”
"How is this going to work... I'm just a lowly executioner, how can I call you by your name. ”
"Whatever you want." Fei'er didn't seem to want to dwell too much on this topic, "Your swordsmanship skills are very strong, it seems to be even more powerful than my guard captain." ”
"Joke aside, how can my swordsmanship match your captain of the guard."
Fei'er's eyes narrowed slightly, and her expression was a little weird, looking at Xu Siling, she didn't know what she was thinking.
Seeing that they were silent with each other, Xu Siling coughed slightly embarrassed, and then asked: "Lord Raya, my house is not safe, why don't I escort you back to Raya Town before it completely darks?" ”
"Isn't this with you, Mr. Executioner~" Fei'er smiled slyly, "I believe that with you, even if there are seven or eight more people, it will be fine for you, right?" ”
Xu Siling couldn't help but smile bitterly, this Fei'er is not very old, why is it so difficult to deal with.
And can you really think of yourself as a god of war? This is not a lawn mower, this is the Middle Ages, if he is still like now, with a leather coat and a one-handed sword, facing the siege of two or three knights covered in plate armor and armed to the teeth, he will only have to run.
"Nothing... Your life is precious, how can you entrust it to someone like me. ”
"What kind of person are you?"
Looking at Fei'er's pretending not to know, Xu Siling didn't know how to answer.
"I think you're a pretty good person, are you interested in changing careers, such as being a soldier in my escort team?"
"Lord Raya... The Holy Religion has said that executioners cannot change professions. ”
"Oh..."Speaking of the Holy Sect, Fei'er had a obviously weird expression: "Forget it." ”
"I'll clean this up, and you can rest in the house first."
Xu Siling hurriedly dragged the robber's body to the back of the house, and then began to bring water over to wash the ground.
He had to choose to dig a pit outside and bury the body now, but the night was dark in the Middle Ages, and it was too troublesome to dig a pit at this time.
After washing, there is still a faint smell of blood in the house, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to eliminate it in a few days.
After cleaning up, Xu Siling returned to the house.
Phil sat on the bed, holding a book and flipping through it.
Seeing Xu Siling coming in, her beautiful eyes were raised, with a sense of laziness, I have to say, with this posture, I am afraid that I will lose many men when I grow up in the future.
It's a pity that the current Fei'er is a child in Xu Siling's eyes.
"Lord Raya." Slightly supporting, Xu Siling found a place to sit down, and then looked at Fei'er and stopped talking.
"Mr. Executioner, say whatever you want. I have a good impression of you, and if there is any request, I can satisfy you for the act of protecting me in front of you. ”
"It's not a request... I just wanted to mention to you that I escorted you back to Raya Town. ”
"What, I'm making you feel sick here?" Phil raised an eyebrow.
Nonsense, of course uncomfortable.
"Nothing." Xu Siling laughed, "It's just that I'm really remote, especially if others know that you're here with me, I'm afraid it will cause some bad misunderstandings." ”
"Misunderstanding. What misunderstanding? Fei'er looked like she was asking knowingly.
Seeing this, Xu Siling had no choice but to sigh and let her be.
Who makes the family a nobleman, and strictly speaking, her employer, she doesn't care, what do I care.
But please... This made Xu Siling think of one.
"But Lord Raya mentioned earlier, I really have a small need here, I don't know if you can help."
"Say it." Phil closed the book.
"Is there anything special about the latest news about the south side of the kingdom?" Xu Siling tried to investigate.
How the Black Death spread to the Kingdom of France, Xu Siling couldn't remember.
But he knew that the Black Death had first come from the south of the Kingdom of France.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information in this era was not very developed, and basically the main circulation of information relied on caravans and nobles.
Now that Fei'er is in front of him, he wants to find out if the Black Death has spread to the kingdom now.
"Something special?"
Phil's blue eyes lifted and began to remember.
