Chapter 092: Northland Tracking
In the early morning, the sun rises in the east, and the first rays of sunlight have not yet been able to penetrate the mist on the lake.
The boat is in the water, and the people are on the boat. The fresh morning breeze mixed with water vapor blew in my face, and a few wild ducks chirped faintly in my ears.
"Mr. Arthur, you woke up so early today. The captain of the ship stepped up to the deck and smiled at Don who was standing at the bow, "Don't worry, you will be able to see the harbor in another hour at most." ”
"Hehe, good morning, captain. Don said hello, then saluted briefly, "Thank you, Captain, for this trip." ”
"You're welcome! I also took your money, and I have to do things when I collect money. The captain waved his hand indifferently and asked casually, "What is Mr. Arthur coming to Princeton for?"
"Visiting a friend...... Donne's eyes narrowed, "visiting an old friend he misses so much." ”
............
Soon, with the cheers of a sailor, a half-moon shaped structure in the distance appeared in everyone's sight, and that was Purim Harbor.
Because it was early in the morning, there were relatively few ships piled up in the harbor, and Donne's ship entered smoothly and docked.
After saying goodbye to the captain and the others, Don ended his ten-day journey on the water and landed on land.
Unwilling to enjoy the view of Purin, Don took a carriage and headed straight for the church in the city.
The architectural style of the Temple of Light Church is built according to local customs, such as the church in Laiyan City, which has a pointed top and a gorgeous and exquisite style. This church in the city of Prinz is much more solemn, with a boxy and semicircular vault. Of course, no matter what the style, at its highest point, it must be erected with a statue of the god of light.
Churches are usually unlocked, and Don got out of the carriage and walked straight inside.
After meeting a white-robed priest again, Don En stepped forward and saluted: "Hello priest, I am a devout disciple of the God of Light, and I heard that His Excellency Sesman, the Inspector of Light, is here, so I came from afar to see him. ”
"Hello believer, I am touched by your pious spirit, and the God of Light will feel your sincerity. However, it is a pity that His Excellency the Inspector left here five days ago. ”
"Left?" Tang En's face was full of disappointment, and then he said, "Then may I ask your Excellency the inspector in which direction you are going, I really want to hear the gospel of your Excellency the inspector!"
"This ......," the white-robed priest hesitated.
"Please, Father!" said Donn, bowing. If you don't say it again, don't blame me for turning around and forcing a confession......
"Okay. The white-robed priest smiled, "For believers like you, I think the God of Light will forgive me for my mistakes." The Inspector sent His Excellency to the north, and he took the land route, because the gospel was to be sprinkled along the way, so if you start chasing it now, it should not take you more than two days. ”
"Father Xiexie!"
Soon, Donn rode a horse out of the north gate of Purin......
The city of Purin is the junction between the south and the north of the country of Bran, and it is more than 100 miles after rushing out from the north gate. Tang En has seen the scenery of the north.
The flat terrain gradually disappears, replaced by hills, and towering mountains appear in the distance from time to time. A cold wind blowing with the howl of beasts in the distance can instantly make you feel that you have come from the idyllic mountains and rivers to the poor mountains and bad waters.
The calm waters of the lake do not produce shrewd sailors, but the treacherous terrain can create endless bandits. Having just seen the scenery of the north, Tang En quickly gained some understanding of the human environment of this place. Just as he had just ridden his horse around a hill, suddenly,
Jumping, the sound of the hemp rope being taut. Suddenly, the horse stumbled and fell forward.
Hiss –
Nima ...... Don was also caught off guard, jumping up to the sound of the horse's long neighing and landing on the ground. It took more than ten heels to roll in a row before he unloaded his strength.
"Boss, hit!"...,
"Yo, this kid is good, everyone pay attention. ”
Don got up in disgrace and saw a crowd of people with a variety of weapons standing in front of him. Although the appearance is slightly worse, the bloodthirsty eyes are real.
"Boy, the uncle is from the Wild Wolf Thieves Group, you are lucky to meet the uncle today, as long as you hand over the valuable things on your body, you can go." One of the strongest men stepped forward.
Don was frowning at the ground, and the horse struggled several times to stand in the midst of the incessant wailing. The horse's front legs can be seen to be bent and apparently wasted.
"Your mother, is your boy deaf or dumb? Uncle told you to bring valuable things, but didn't you hear?" The strong man was immediately angry when he saw that Tang En ignored him.
With a long breath, Don got up: "Do you have any horses?"
"Yes...... Uh, fuck you kid......"
"Where's the horse?"
“...... Damn, hack him to death for me!" The strong man saw that Tang En's answer was not in the horse's mouth, as if he was teasing himself, and suddenly jumped like thunder, brandishing a big knife and ordering the younger brother to come forward and hack Tang En.
"Boss, be careful!"
Wow - the clothes were blown back straight up, and Don En stood straight forward like a bow and arrow, standing in front of the strong man.
"Uh......" The strong man was shocked when he saw the ghost-like figure, and turned the big knife diagonally upwards to pick up Tang En.
With his left hand, Tang En imprinted his palm on the back of the knife.
Bang!
Immediately, the big man's neck was pinched and he fell to the ground.
"You don't even have the fighting spirit, and you still come out to mess around?" Tang En was a little surprised, and then said, "What about your boss?"
"Ahem. After eating a little dust, the strong man struggled, "I am ......"
"Are you the leader of the Wolf Thieves?" Don opened his mouth, speechless. He now has a clear understanding of the chaos in the north, and he dares to come out to pull the flagpole and tree the mountain, so you can imagine how many thieves there are in the north.
"Uncle spares my life, I'm blind, you have a lot of adults, let me go......!" The strong man obviously understands this very well.
"Shut up! Where's your horse?"
The strong man hurriedly called out to the younger brother to sign his horse over.
This is a chestnut old horse, and the brand of so-and-so Chamber of Commerce can still be seen on the horse's buttocks, so you don't have to think about it to know how this horse came about.
With the horses, Don had no intention of entanglement with these low-level bandits, so he got on the horse and left.
Throughout the day, Don was constantly tracking, and at the same time, it was an eye-opener, and there were thieves waiting in almost every suitable ambush location. However, Tang En is still a solo rider, and he is the most willing object of thieves who have no eyesight.
The old chestnut horse could not escape the plot after running for most of the day, and was killed by a rapid crossbow arrow. Don dismounted, quickly culled the sneak attacker, and then drove away.
Of course, walking on your legs is much more tiring, but it also has the advantage that you don't need to follow the established avenue, and you can directly climb over the Yujian hills or something.
At night, against the stars in the sky, Tang En continued to run wildly. The insects and beasts roared, the ravines were vertical and horizontal, and he was left behind in the whistling sound......
It could be that Donn's speed was too impressive, or it could be that Seysman's team was too slow.
In the early morning of the next day, on a mountain range, Donn saw in the mist in the distance, a dozen cavalrymen wearing bright armor escorting a luxurious carriage. Needless to say, this must be Sesman and his party.
"Finally let me get you!"
(I bowed down and thanked the book friends "Ziyueyin", "Xuyi" and "Yise" for their rewards.) )
