Chapter 288: The Witch

Lin Feng had seen a lot of fantasy in his previous life, and there were knights and wizards in these, and the background generally took place in the Middle Ages.

It was a chaotic and irritable one, and generally speaking, there would have been several states, but the king's control over the country had been weakened to the extreme, because the nobles of the feudal lords had direct control over their territories, and in short, in the territories of these nobles, the nobles were the emperors.

So when Lin Feng saw all this, his first thought was that this should be the Middle Ages, and it should be a certain plane, according to the routine, knights, castles, and national wars are the first scenes that will appear, and finally wizards beyond the ability of mortals will appear.

Well, in such a background, the wizard is quite bullish, and the knight is simply scum compared to the wizard, such a comparison fully shows that the wizard is God's favorite, and the tank can only be regarded as cannon fodder at most.

With this information in mind, Lin Feng looked at the cannon fodder below... Knights, and then he found that these knights are really not strong, let's put it this way, if the physical fitness of ordinary people is one, then the physical fitness of the knights below is almost two, and if such physical fitness is put into modern times, it is probably the kind of people who regularly exercise and exercise.

"However, although these knights are more scum, they have armor, weapons and war horses, and the physical fitness of the slaves working in the fields is even more scum, so these knights must have no problem fighting ten against one. ”

"And according to the general routine, the first to appear are weak chickens, these knights should not be real knights, at most they are trainee knights or knight squires. ”

For such a group of weak chickens, of course Lin Feng disdained to deal with it, he was going to go to the front to take a look, he should be able to see some ancient castle buildings, and by the way, learn about the customs and habits of this plane and so on.

At this moment, the knight below suddenly spoke, and Lin Feng found that he could actually understand.

"Captain, are we really going to catch witches?" said a younger-sounding knight.

"That's right. The captain replied, "This is the order of the Viscount." ”

"Captain, can witches really wield magical powers?" asked another knight.

"How did I know, witches are evil anyway. ”

"Do you want to burn the witch if you catch her?" asked one of the knights, with a hint of excitement in his tone.

"Of course. ”

"Captain, I've heard that witches are beautiful, aren't they?"

"John, I want to find some in the women's tavern, but don't touch those wicked witches, understand?" said the captain.

"So these knights are going to catch witches?" Hearing the conversation of the knights, Lin Feng stopped his body, he was not ready to leave.

In the Middle Ages, there seemed to be a natural antagonism between witches and ordinary people, ordinary people thought that witches were evil, as for whether it was true, Lin Feng said that he scoffed.

People are good and bad, there must be bad people among witches, but there are definitely good people, so it is absolutely impossible for all witches to be evil, and the reason why those nobles will send people to arrest witches can only be that the ability of witches will affect their rule.

This is the same as the ancient Chinese people, there is a saying in the ancient times of China called chivalry to violate the ban with martial arts, because the ancient heroes have extremely high strength, and the rulers are afraid that these heroes will shake their rule, so they deliberately demonize these people, which has nothing to do with right or wrong, it can only be said that the ass determines the head.

Witches are also demonized by the nobility in such a situation, and the nobility has absolute dominion in this generation, and under the propaganda of the nobility, the witch also becomes an evil demon.

Of course, Lin Feng didn't care much about this, he only cared about what kind of abilities the witches would have, if the abilities of the witches were of great research value to Lin Feng, then Lin Feng wouldn't mind rescuing these 'evil' witches.

After following the knights for about half an hour, the knights came to a row of bungalows, which were a little better than the thatched huts that Lin Feng had seen at the beginning, at least the bungalows were made of wooden planks.

There were already quite a few people gathered around the bungalow, these people were supposed to be commoners, and the commoners of this era were slightly better treated than slaves, although they were also relatively thin, but at least the clothes they wore were still relatively intact.

In the crowd of civilians, a fellow who seemed to be the leader stepped out of the crowd and bowed to the knights on horseback: "Ladies and gentlemen, you are here. ”

"Where's the wicked witch?" said the captain.

The leader shouted at the crowd of civilians, and a middle-aged man came out of the crowd, the middle-aged man knelt down, and the leader said in a loud voice: "Lord Knight, this is the father of the witch, named Old Polly." ”

Old Polly obviously hadn't seen much of the world, and he trembled with fright, and in the knight captain's impatient inquiry, Lin Feng understood what had happened.

The witch is the daughter of old Polly, and it is the old Polly who reported the message to the nobles, so there will be the arrival of the knight, Lin Feng can see the disgust and fear in the eyes of the old Polly when he talks about the witch, and he has no sympathy at all because the witch is his own daughter, on the contrary, the old Polly also shouted for these knights to burn the witch to death.

In this regard, Lin Feng could only say that tiger poison does not eat children, this old Polly is not even as good as a beast, but in another way, it can also be said that the ruler here is extremely good at promoting witches, and ordinary civilians are always ignorant, if it is not for the nobles to preach that witches are evil, Old Polly is obviously not so much.

The knights put on their armor and drew their swords, and finally brought out from old Polly's room a thin little girl, who was Polly Sr.'s daughter, named Emma.

When Emma was escorted out by the knights, the surrounding civilians subconsciously retreated, and they retreated more than ten meters before stopping, simply treating Emma as a flood beast.

Emma kept looking at old Polly, this little girl was only thirteen or fourteen years old, her sky blue eyes kept looking at her father, her eyes were full of sadness and pain, the girl was innocent, but she probably didn't expect that the first person to betray herself would be the dearest father.

"Burn her!!"

"Burn her!!"

"Burn the evil witch!!"

The civilians around her screamed, looking at Emma's eyes full of fear and disgust, hearing these voices, Emma's body was trembling, and she didn't understand what kind of mistake she had made.

Lin Feng stared coldly at the farce below, such ignorance is not to mention ancient times, even in the modern era of information explosion, it happens from time to time, are these civilians at fault? It seems that no, this is just the limitation of the times.
