Chapter 53
In the moonlight, a sallow-faced youth dragged his tired body into a dilapidated log cabin.
The young man was very tall, and when he entered the house, he even had to be short to enter the house.
However, he was too thin, his cheeks were deeply sunken, his eyes were blank, and his whole person was as emaciated as a curved bamboo pole.
The young man sat in the room and rested for a while, then slowly took off his clothes by moonlight.
The scrawny body can clearly see whip marks all over the place, as if a fishing net has grown on the young man, strangling him to death at any time.
“Damn it…”
The young man cursed in a low voice, mixed with someone’s name, and his eyes were full of hatred, pain, and deep helplessness.
He groped for a little black herb from under the bed and applied it to the fresh scars on his body.
Then out of nowhere, he took out half of the same black bread and put it in his mouth and nibbled on it little by little.
The bread was hard and tasted terrible, and eating it was like swallowing a large piece of dry bark, cutting your throat.
But the young man still ate very carefully and seriously, and even picked up and ate a few crumbs that fell on the ground.
Because he had not eaten for a whole day, this was all his rations for the day, and tomorrow, there was a lot of extremely heavy work waiting for him.
The young man finished eating the black bread, poured some cold water into his mouth indiscriminately, and then sat on the edge of the bed and stared at the moon outside the window in a daze.
“I knew earlier: I already knew that I should have left this damn place with Uncle John, even if I was eaten by jackals, it was better than the current person who is not a ghost or a ghost.”
The young man said a few words, and was preparing to lie down and sleep with a sad face.
Only dreaming can give him some comfort.
But just as he was about to lie down, a dark shadow suddenly swayed outside the window, and then there was a “bang” knock on the door.
The young man jerked his spirit, jumped up from the bed, and shouted warily: “Who?!” ”
“It’s me.”
Outside the door came the voice of a thick middle-aged man, with a nasal voice familiar to the youth.
“Uncle John?!”
The young man was stunned, and shook his head again, “It’s impossible, Uncle John has already escaped from Silvertree City with Asheri, how can it be possible to come back again, I must have heard it wrong..”
But the next second there was a knock on the door again, and it became more urgent.
“Guy, hurry up and open the door, I’m John.”
Is it really Uncle John?!
The young man hurriedly ran to the door, opened the door, and several figures quickly came in.
“Fortunately, it was not discovered by the guards!”
“Those guys get drunk at night, and there is no one patrolling the streets at all, otherwise we wouldn’t have escaped last time, so we don’t have to worry.”
“It’s better to be careful ..”
Several people exchanged a few words in a low voice, and then a person walked out, took off the hood on his head, and revealed a face that was extremely familiar to the youth.
“Uncle John, it’s really you!”
The young man was surprised and delighted, and then asked suspiciously: “Why did you come back?” And who are they ?! ”
“Stinky boy, I haven’t seen you in a few days, and I can’t even hear your Bad Brother’s voice!”
A man came up and put his arm around the young man’s neck, revealing a thick and straightforward face.
“Brother Bart! Why are you back too? You.. Didn’t you guys escape the city, how… Ahem..”
As soon as the young man didn’t say a word, he suddenly coughed violently, and his face showed pain.
Bart looked at it again, hurriedly lifted the young man’s clothes, and when he saw it, flames suddenly erupted from his eyes.
“Those bastards, hit you again!”
“It’s okay, it’s okay ..”
A weak smile appeared on the young man’s face and comforted: “I’m used to it.. You haven’t said how you’re back..”
John said in a deep voice: “I’ll talk later, Guy, you go and help me call all the old neighbors and old friends in the past, all come to my house, I have something important to tell you:
Remember, don’t be discovered by the guards. ”
Guy was stunned, but nodded anyway, “Okay, I see.” ”
….
Half an hour later, in John’s former hut, more than twenty people were crowded out.
The hut was lit by faint candlelight, and the windows were tightly sealed with bedding, and no light could come through.
“…. That’s probably what I said, what do you think? ”
John closed his mouth and scanned everyone around him.
These old neighbors and friends of his former old people looked confused, and they didn’t seem to have recovered from what John had just said.
Bart on the side couldn’t help but urge: “What are you still hesitating, Banbi City is a hundred times better than here, and our city lord is also a thousand times stronger than Andrew’s bastard.”
Hurry up and pack your things and come with us to Bambi City to live a good life! ”
After Bart’s words, looking at everyone, someone finally spoke.
“John, you said that the city lord of Bambi City led an army to defeat four or five thousand jackals?!”
John nodded, “That’s right, Bart and I have seen with our own eyes that this year’s jackals are several times more than in previous years, and if it weren’t for the city lord leading everyone to hold Bambi City, I estimate that Silvertree City would also fall.” ”
“This can’t be!”
The person who asked the question immediately shook his head and affirmed: “It is impossible to come so many jackals at once, even if there are really so many people coming, Bambi City will not be able to hold it, unless it is the strength of a legion!” ”
“How is it impossible?!”
Bart was suddenly anxious and defended: “The city guard warriors under the city lord are all knight masters, and some have even cultivated fighting qi, and the city lord himself is also a great high-level knight, and there are many messengers sent by the gods, and the jackals were repelled at once..”
Bart even drew his hand, but the more urgent he was, the less clear he became.
There are more and more voices of skepticism.
“It is. He also said that as long as we go over, we will arrange a new house for free, give us new clothes, and eat better than the nobles, is this possible? ”
“How can there be a job of more than 1 gold coin a month, I don’t believe in killing me!”
“I also don’t believe that with 20 copper plates a pound of salt, wouldn’t those merchants have to lose money?”
“John, Bart, do you always say that you were bought by the city lord of Bambi City, deliberately tricked us into the past, and wanted to capture us as slaves?”
“Yes, nobles are bastard vampires, how can it be as good as you say!”
…
A group of people said a word to me, so that Bart could not speak, because of the excitement, his bronzed face was flushed.
“Everyone be quiet!”
John suddenly spoke, and the field suddenly fell silent.
“I know it’s hard for people to believe it right now.”
John said word by word with great seriousness: “To be honest, before going to Bambi City, if Bart came to me and said these things, I would have kicked his ass with my foot!”
Nobles, I hate nobles too.
If it weren’t for Andrew that bastard, Maria wouldn’t have died!
I hate it more than you do.
If it weren’t for Asherie, I would have stopped living long ago and went desperately with Andrew.
But…
His Royal Highness the Third Prince is different! ”
John’s eyes fluttered, and he said in a low voice: “Have you ever seen a nobleman who holds a commoner’s child in his arms like a treasure?” Have you ever seen an aristocrat who has not collected even a single tax on copper so far?
Have you ever seen a nobleman who used his own money to build houses for commoners and live well?
His Royal Highness the Third Prince, he is the most noble nobleman I have ever met, and the nobleman I have never met who is not like a nobleman. ”
“Everyone believes me John, once I come to Bambi City, if I say half a lie, you will burn me at the stake and burn me alive.”
After John’s words, everyone fell silent.
“Yes!”
Bart also echoed: “Today we sneaked back to Silvertree City, and it was also the city lord who sent us, he knows that everyone lives in Silvertree City as inferior to pigs and dogs.
Lord City Lord is kind, he wants to save everyone, but he is afraid that Andrew will threaten everyone’s lives, so let’s come in and talk to everyone first. ”
Bart pointed outside and said, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe it now, when the people sent by the city lord open the city gates, the city guards rush in and slash Andrew’s bastard’s head, then you will believe it..”
At this moment, the door was slammed open.
Guy, who was hiding outside to let everyone blow the wind, hurriedly ran in and said anxiously: “Andrew’s guards are coming!” ”
“What?!”
“They found us?!”
Everyone panicked.
Guy shook his head and said quickly: “It’s the jackal, the jackal ran into the city, Andrew’s men couldn’t stop it, and began to catch civilians to fill the wolf’s stomach!” ”
