Section 31 Heresy

In the dark carriage, only the sound of the wheels of the car could be heard.

A group of knights escorted a dilapidated prisoner's cart and slowly headed off into the distance.

The interior of the carriage is quite spacious, but it is wrapped in thin iron sheets all around, and there are a few small holes around it to prevent the prisoners from suffocating to death.

A smell of rust permeated the carriage.

Dot pulled up, frowned, and said, "Lance, for the first time, I think you have a bad idea. ”

"Bear with me," Lance shrugged, "I'm just as tortured as you are." ”

He shook his hand, and there was a clattering sound. It was a pair of rusty iron handcuffs, and it looked like it was old.

"I don't really like the current environment either. Landry complained, "Why don't we choose the other way?"

"What else can I do?" Lance asked rhetorically, "Do you mean to reveal our wizard identity in the first place, and then kill all the way?"

"These mortals are no match for us!" Valerie said, "why don't we defeat them, and then find out from these knights the direction of the so-called White City? ”

Lance shook his head and said, "It's really hard for these mortals to cause us too much trouble. But if we act rashly, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find the person we are looking for smoothly - we have to find a big person, so that in the next operation, we can get twice the result with half the effort. ”

"I can tell you up front if these idiots are going to dump me in a filthy dungeon. I'm not interested in continuing acting. Landry whispered.

"Don't worry, everyone, bear with me a little longer, and when we get to the main city of this territory, it's almost time for us to start. Lance said calmly.

......

In a low house, the dilapidated wooden door creaked open.

A teenager in a hunting suit walked in through the door.

"Mother......" The boy walked quickly to the bed.

A middle-aged woman with a scorched face and a withered face was lying there quietly, and when she heard the call of the young man, she opened her eyes with some difficulty.

The woman's face showed a look of joy: "Charles." You're back...... Ahem, ahem!"

She choked on a violent cough that made her face red. Charles hurriedly handed over a bowl of water.

The middle-aged woman took a sip of water, and her dry lips were slightly moist.

A hint of grief flashed in the eyes of the young man in the hunting costume, and then he clasped his mother's hands and said happily, "Mother." I'm rich. I have the money to heal you. ”

With that, he carefully pulled out a silver pocket from his bosom.

He poured the money from his pocket onto the table. There are dozens of coins scattered around.

There was no trace of joy on the middle-aged woman's face, and she asked in a low voice, "Where did the money come from?"

Charles was stunned for a moment. What happened before is about to be repeated.

“...... Those people were dressed in the clothes that only the temple lords could wear, but they were not temple people, they were the outsiders that the knights had said the other day! I told the knight the news, and he immediately gave me the money. It's not as much as I said before, but it should be able to treat you!"

The mother's expression was calm, and she suddenly asked rhetorically, "You mean, they saved you from the mouth of the black bear, and then you quickly sold their news to the people of the temple, right?"

Charles blushed suddenly, and he whispered, "They're bad guys...... The adults of the temple said......"

"Charles!" The mother on the sickbed raised her voice slightly, her expression was very serious: "It's not a bad person, don't listen to others, even if it's a temple person, it's the same." You have to see with your own eyes and let your heart judge. ”

"I got it. Charles bowed his head.

"Now tell me, are they bad people?" she asked.

Charles gritted his teeth: "It doesn't seem to be ......"

"You've done something wrong. The middle-aged woman touched Charles's hair: "My child, my illness is not important, what I care about is you." ”

"If you can't be a good and upright person, what's the point of living to be a hundred years old in good health?"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

She began to cough violently again.

Charles handed over the bowl full of water, and then whispered, "I see what you mean." ”

He stood up from the edge of the bed, removed the hunting bow that hung on the wall, and pulled two more daggers out of the drawer.

"Tonight, I'll probably be back very late. Charles whispered.

"Be careful. His mother said, "I know that you know the White City well, and you can easily rescue them even if they are imprisoned in the dungeon." But still beware, it's still hard for you to defeat a Guardian Knight in a head-to-head situation. ”

"I know that I won't go toe-to-toe with the people of the temple. Charles smiled:

"You've always known me, I'm a great hunter. ”

......

The bumpy journey lasted for half a day, and it was not until sunset that they arrived at the destination of the trip, the White City.

The main city of Soraha, where the lords of the land lived.

Through the gap in the prisoner cart, Lance could clearly see the view of the White City in the evening.

The whole city is built on the mountain, and it is estimated that the city got its name because the mountain rocks are pure white. The walls of the White City are not very tall, probably because there are very few battles here, and the guards are not very strong.

Most civilians only need to show proof when they pass through the city gates. And the team led by the guardian knight of the Yueqin Temple took a shortcut directly through the small door on the side, and the prisoner cart creaked into the city.

To Lance's surprise, the city gate was sparsely populated, and there was hardly a figure to be seen on the open streets.

"What's going on today?" he heard a guardian knight greeting the gate guards.

"The execution of heretics is taking place in Tthroh Square, and Lord Lockhart has ordered all soldiers and civilians who are not on duty to go and witness it. If you were faster. Maybe we'll be able to catch the stake burning!" said the soldier.

The Guardian Knight asked, "Who is the man to be executed today?"

"A little girl, who looks like she's eight or nine years old at most. The looks are very cute. But Lord Lockhart himself has personally identified the girl as having the shadow of the devil on her. You won't believe me when I say it, but she's able to twist a good spoon out of thin air, and even make some small ice cubes...... In short, this little girl named Scarlett must have made a deal with the devil. The guard muttered, "Her parents couldn't believe it and wept to death countless times." The Monroe family is also a wealthy merchant in the city, but it's a pity that this happened, and it is said that the temple is next. They are to be thoroughly investigated for their families. Get out of everyone who dares to make a deal with the devil. ”

"Oh, by the way, she also has an older sister, who is a nun. She's been trying to intercede with Lord Lockhart. It's a pity for this kind of thing. It's not for Lord Lockhart to decide. This is the rule set by the goddess Yueqin herself - heretics must be put to death. No one can disobey. ”

The soldier said with some regret.

"In that case, we'll have to go over and have a look. The Guardian Knight said decisively: "Diversion, Tros Square!"

The prisoner cart slowly began to move forward again. The crowd who had already been ready to do it pressed down again.

"Ignorance!" it took a long time for Dora to say angrily, "What kind of bullshit is to burn a little girl at the stake?"

"By the time you hear the word temple, you should have understood that Sowahar may not be an enlightened nation. Lance said calmly: "If you don't have any opinions, then it's time for us to play." ”

"I'm ready. Landry whispered:

"I'm going to show these ignorant and cruel people what the real devil is. ”

......

In the White City, on the top square, a tall palace is built on the hill.

In one of the most north-facing rooms, an old man and a young man sat opposite each other.

The room was filled with a strong smell of formalin, mixed with a pungent herbal smell that made people smell sick.

The young man raised his eyelids low: "Father, it's time to drink medicine." ”

At this moment, there was a sudden burst of cheers outside. It was the sound coming from the Tros Square on the mountainside.

The old man asked in a low voice, "Who are they executing today?"

"Scarlett Monroe, if you remember that little girl, you should feel sorry. The boy said calmly, "But speaking of which, you still hurt him." ”

"If you hadn't secretly given her the [Witchcraft Basics] that only our family was allowed to read two years ago, she wouldn't have been discovered by Lockhart in the temple for studying spells privately. ”

"At this point, you are indeed doing it wrong. The young man Wen Yan said, "Father, let's drink the medicine first." ”

"Your brothers and sisters, have all gone over to see it?" the old man ignored the boy's urging and asked another question.

The boy nodded patiently and said, "Even if they don't want to go, there's no way." What's more, my brother and Master Lockhart have always been very close. As for my sister...... You also know the situation. ”

The old man laughed hesitantly: "The temple, and the temple." ”

"The entire White City is full of minions of the temple, and your brother did not hesitate to befriend Lockhart and give him countless benefits in order to sit in the position of the city lord. And what about you? My smartest son? What are you going to do?"

"I want to serve my father all the time. The boy said humbly.

"Hehe......" the old man smiled: "You are always so smart, like your mother." For half a year you served me, you made me drink a bowl of herbs every day. Each bowl of herbs contains some slight toxicity, but it is not fatal. However, after half a year of accumulation, this bowl in your hand can probably take away my life for many years? ”

The boy's body stiffened violently, and his breathing became heavy.

The old man patted the boy on the shoulder and said calmly, "Go and get that book." ”

The boy was covered in a cold sweat and put the herbs on the ground beside him. He pulled out a book with a silver cover from the old man's desk and handed it to the old man.

The old man held the book and slowly opened it.

At this moment, a silver light suddenly flashed on the book!

The old man's breathing became rapid, and he opened the book sharply, only to see a new piece of writing emerge one by one.

In an instant, the old man's tears flowed.

"It's finally here, I can't imagine that I can wait until ...... in my lifetime"

The boy frowned and glanced at the most dazzling words in the book.

I saw that it was written: [Revelation - Volume 2] (to be continued......

PS: Sorry for the late update. It's been very, very, very tired today...... The addition can only be postponed until tomorrow. Again, sorry.
