Ride and Cut

In the middle of the night, several carts drove out of Alpine Fort's camp carrying the remains of all the Blood Knights.

The Alpine Fort is too close to other camps, and a little anomaly is too easy to spot. After all, Li Cha had a secret in his heart, so he planned to dispose of these remains overnight to avoid being seen by others.

In order to keep it as quiet as possible, several strong savages deliberately untied the draft horses and pulled up the ropes to do it for them. With their physical strength, this is a piece of cake.

"Why does it look like a thief." Gunther complained secretly.

"Shut up." Li Cha raised his leg and kicked his ass.

The road was dark at night, and Gunther happened to step on a rock and was unable to maintain his balance, but when he ate it again, he suddenly slammed on the ground, and an "ouch" was heard far away in the quiet night.

"Are you sure?" The lord really wanted to kick this guy to death.

"It's not my fault, the stone is too sharp." Gunther didn't even realize that he should lower his voice when he spoke.

So this sneaky team hadn't slipped fifty yards before they were caught by Buster and Granling who were patrolling the barracks together.

"Why are you going?" Buster was stomping his feet and smoking a pipe. He raised his lantern and glanced at the carriage. After seeing the content, he immediately lost interest. He has seen so many of these things that he has completely lost the reaction that a normal person should have.

"Bury the corpse, otherwise it will cause a plague." Li Cha's face was heavy with concern for the country and the people.

"Are you all right?" Buster reached out to touch his forehead, but was slapped away by Li Cha's slap, "It's winter now, and it won't be thawed until next spring, so where is the plague?"

"Then next spring, don't we still have to deal with it?" The lord rolled his eyes, and said quite naturally: "You are too lazy, it is better to deal with it early than late. Forget it, we will do it ourselves in the mountain castle."

The wheels began to creak and continued to turn, and the lord of the Alpine Fort walked out of the town without looking back.

"Is...is there something wrong with his mind?" Buster looked at Li Cha's back and spread his hands at Granling, "We can still be here next spring?"

"Maybe I can't bear to look at the corpse of the dead in the wilderness, but I can't see that Mr. Richard is a kind-hearted person," Glan Ling nodded slightly with a smile. Religions that can become the mainstream all persuade people to be good, and the Ice and Snow Goddess Church is no exception.

Buster was stunned for a while and suddenly laughed twice, very cold.

…………

In the cold morning of Chakeshi, before the sun was fully lit, a pan of oil was already burning on the charcoal fire.

This is a typical Stuart-style breakfast stand, and it specializes in a small cake called kacha, which is made of flour and cornmeal live dough, mixed with butter and a little beet sugar to make pancakes. It is first baked in a charcoal oven until it is soft and fragrant, and if guests order it, it will be fried until golden and crisp.

When eating, gently tear it from the middle, the rich and sweet taste will rise with the heat, and then wrap it with ham slices and stewed peas. This not-too-expensive civilian breakfast can provide diners with enough satisfaction to support the whole day.

Li Cha was sitting at a small table with a thick stack of Kacha in front of him, which was disappearing at a jaw-dropping speed.

This food is delicious, but if you eat too much, your mouth will get thirsty. Li Cha took a sip of the dry lemon soaked water that he gave him, thinking that he would like some honey.

But just thinking about it, honey is such an expensive luxury, of course it is impossible to keep it in this kind of food stalls for the common people.

The stall owner was a hunched little old man, secretly looking at Li Cha from the corner of his eye. Decades of cautious experience in businessmen has cultivated extraordinary eyesight, and the well-made and neat leather armor and saber can obviously only belong to officers of high status.

A battle that shocked the neighbors just broke out yesterday, and it is said that many people died. He doesn't care much about politics, and he doesn't know who is on both sides of the war, but the one in front of him should belong to the winning side, otherwise how can he be so leisurely.

The stall owner sighed secretly. He felt that everyone had to eat no matter what the war, so he ventured out of the stall according to the habit of forty years regardless of dissuasion. I never dreamed that this kind of guests would be attracted—you must know that Chaka never appeared on the stage, and even the tax collectors in the town seldom visited before.

The only thing the little old man could do was to pick out as few slices of ham as possible and put them on the plate when he stewed peas with ham. I pray that for the sake of the Holy Light God, it doesn't matter if you don't pay after eating, but don't draw out your sword for anything.

"Add ten." Li Cha snapped his fingers.

The gray-haired stall owner hurriedly withdrew his gaze and pretended to be busy.

"It's quite relaxing."

The voice came from behind, and Bedrick sat down on the stool next to him. Looking at the solid bench, he suddenly let out an overwhelmed creaking sound.

"The Magic Stone of Destiny you want." Li Cha patted an uncovered wooden box on the ground, and continued to fight the pancake.

Inside the box was a scrapped Destiny Magic Stone, which still had the vivid appearance of a human heart, but it had completely lost its dark and mysterious feeling. As a mere souvenir, it may be more suitable than a good product, at least it will not scare the child to cry.

"The muffin falcon that was released yesterday afternoon has flown back." Bedric picked up the pancake on the table and took a bite, but he put it down again after just one bite - people after a hangover generally can't eat too greasy things.

"How do you say it?" Li Cha tried hard to swallow everything in his mouth, and spread his palms towards the other party.

"The main force of the legion asked us to stand by on the spot. When they arrive, it is said that they are going to attack Winter City." Bedric took out his wallet and counted out ten gold coins and put them on it. This is the magic stone money that was agreed yesterday.

"I... what I want is the letter brought back by Faith Falcon!" Li Cha stuffed the gold coins into his pocket with a dark expression on his face.

"..." Bedrick hurriedly lowered his head to search, "I'm sorry."

After a while, the lord took the scroll and scanned it again, and the general content was basically consistent with what Bedric said earlier. Not only the Dragon Claw Legion, but the entire Pompeii Expeditionary Army is gathering the main force to attack Winter City.

The name "Winter City——" impressed Li Cha deeply, but he still clearly remembered that Dracula accidentally discovered a "Ring of the Sky and Thunder" left over from the Titan era. He is staying at the home of a high-ranking nobleman named Magellan in Winter City, collecting it as an ordinary antique.

"How much?" Li Cha stood up and took out the money bag.

The old stall owner suddenly became very entangled. According to his heart, as long as he can send these two special guests away without charging money, he should pay the price for reckless opening of the stall. But I was worried that doing so would anger them.

Finally, he said cautiously: "Five coppers?"

Li Cha popped out a gold coin with his fingers, and it fell into the money basket accurately, and he didn't look back when he left.
