Although he had doubts at first that the knights had other accomplices, Zhang Yao soon relaxed his vigilance.

The sound of the grass being plucked was too noisy and chaotic, and this was by no means a low-level mistake that a disciplined knight would make.

Sure enough, when the person finally came, Zhang Yao's heart was completely let go.

The first to show his head was Terry Chunky.

"What's going on here?"

However, Zhang Yao didn't want or didn't bother to deal with the shocked Terry, because he saw the person behind Terry.

"Lilia Marie!!"

Lilia Marie trotted around Terry and threw herself into Zhang Yao's arms.

Holding Lilia Marie in her arms, feeling the real feeling of the girl in the crook of her arm, the anxiety of being left behind again gradually subsided.

"Don't worry me so much, stupid. ”

Because of the increase in the number of people, all the things that could not be taken away before can be scavenged this time.

Terry scavenged all the items that the knights could take away, obtained a lot of weapons and military drugs that were usually difficult to obtain, and roughly hid the corpses to avoid being discovered too quickly by possible accomplices, and then the three of them walked down the hill under the leadership of Lilia Marie, but not in the direction of the camp.

On the way, Zhang Yao heard the general story of the matter from Lilia Marie and Terry.

Originally, Lilia Marie planned to return immediately after picking herbs, after all, they were very aware of how dangerous it was in the mountains and forests at night, but there was an accident on the way, and they could only hide in a small cave at the foot of the mountain for the time being.

Terry and Pompeii took the risk to search nearby after Zhang Yao left, and happened to find someone watching the wind near the cave, and then Terry took Lilia Marie to find Zhang Yao, while Pompey stayed behind to help guard the cave.

It can only be said that Lilia Marie and they were lucky, and if they were unlucky, they would have been discovered by the knights long ago with their disguise that could be discovered by Pompeii and Terry.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Yao felt that his scalp was numb. This time I was lucky enough to spot the knights before they searched the cave, but what about the next time, what if the camp was discovered by the enemy while I was out?

Indeed, if it was just Zhang Yao alone, there would be a way to escape or fight hard, but he was not alone, there were dozens of civilians behind him who didn't know how to fight, as well as old people, women and children, including Lilia Marie, once something really went wrong, he couldn't protect them alone.

I thought it was safe, but now it seems that it is far from the word security.

When they arrived at the cave where Lilia and Marie were hiding, Zhang Yao met other people, and also saw the so-called 'unexpected situation'.

"Who is he?"

Zhang Yao frowned and looked at the middle-aged man lying in the middle of Shandong.

The man's injuries were so severe that even a simple bandage that Lilia Marie had done for him would still startle anyone who saw it. There was a rather large wound that stretched from the left rib to the waist, and his legs and hands were tightly bandaged with coarse cloth, and a wooden stick was added to fix them.

His beard was sloppy and he couldn't see his true appearance, but although the clothes on his body were tattered, they were sewn from expensive materials, and even if they were stained with mud and blood, they could be seen from the embroidery and excellent craftsmanship.

But these are not the point, the focus is on the embroidery on the man's clothes, and that coat of arms is so familiar to Zhang Yao that it is about to burn on his eyes...... Coat of arms of the Holy See.

That is, this man is a member of the Holy See, and his status is not low.

In this way, the purpose of the papal knights who appeared in the forest needs to be discussed separately.

"He was met on our way back from collecting medicine. ”

That's what Lilia Marie said.

"He was dying when I met him, so ......"

Listening to Lilia Marie's words, Zhang Yao felt a breath of fire burning in his chest.

"So you saved him?"

Zhang Yao knew the coat of arms of the Holy See, and it was impossible for Lilia Marie, who was a nun, not to know heraldry.

"Do you know who those people I killed just now? They are the most elite knights of the Holy See! Don't tell me you don't know what they're looking for!"

Whether it was the hot pursuit of the Holy See or the ubiquitous martial law, Zhang Yao felt pressure, he was afraid that he would not be able to protect others, but in such a situation, Lilia Marie took the initiative to cause trouble, and it was very likely that she would attract the Holy See's pursuers because of this.

"It's likely that they're looking for this person, you're good, you know it's trouble, but you still insist on it, and there must be a limit to bad people!"

Why? Why couldn't Lilia Marie understand his hard work?

"I've worked very hard just to protect you burdens, please don't trouble me again!"

Yes.

Damn it.

Zhang Yao, who realized what he said, couldn't wait to slap himself, no matter what, what he said just now was too thoughtless.

If you think about it carefully, you don't really have any contributions to boast about, everyone in the camp is like this, and what you do is just the part of the work you can do well.

Moreover, Zhang Yao didn't blame Lilia Marie for being a bad person at all, because he was also rescued because of Lilia Marie's kindness. It was because Lilia Marie saved him from an unknown source that he was able to survive, and it was because of the kindness of everyone in the camp that he was given a place to live.

Why forget?

- I made the same mistake again. Just like before, frivolous arrogance blinded Zhang Yao's eyes.

Because he has the strength that others don't have, has special experiences that others don't have, and can do things that others can't, he starts again, and somewhere in his heart, thinks that he is special...... Because, you see, they relied on themselves all the way to get here, and they couldn't do anything without themselves.

What he knew, he always knew but never took seriously.

Indeed, Zhang Yao once wanted to change, so he abandoned the name of excessive self-consciousness and used his simple real name, which he thought was an effort, but in fact, he didn't do anything, just talking.

Zhang Yao lowered his head, not daring to look at Lilia Marie's eyes, afraid of seeing the sadness in Lilia Marie's eyes, afraid that he had let Lilia Marie down.

And yet—

The warm palm was on Zhang Yao's cheek, and the calloused palm was a little tingling because of long-term work, but he could clearly feel the tenderness.

"I'm sorry. ”

Lilia Marie said with a smile.

"I'm sorry I didn't take your feelings into account. ”

The more gentle and sincere the smile was, the more it made Zhang Yao feel embarrassed.
