Chapter 129

The place where the convoy was still one day away to encounter bandits was the castle of the lord here, a marquis of the Kingdom of Fillingen.

The castle is built on a small hill, and at the foot of the mountain is a town inhabited by the people of this place.

There are three huge banyan trees not far from the road outside the town. It is said that these three banyan trees are even older than the Fillingen Kingdom.

The canopies of banyan trees planted in triangles have grown intertwined and grown together, forming a large area of ​​shade under the sun. Past caravans and nearby residents like to come to the shade to enjoy the cool air in summer.

In addition, there is a legend here that the three banyan trees were planted together by the great sage Philip Elf Princess Victoria and the Demon Queen Caterina when they passed by.

"It is said that the three of them have dug wells and the old-fashioned stores they have lived in. Anyway, my mother is not in the mood to expose them." That's what Elizabeth said.

However, in recent times, no one has come to enjoy the cool under the banyan tree, and there are not even people who are willing to approach.

Because at this time, the stout branches of the banyan tree were hanging over the corpses of more than 200 bandits according to traditional customs, just like the loofah that was about to mature.

The residents nearby and the merchants who came to buy food were only watching and discussing from a distance.

Only some slutty and slutty people would come to the place and take advantage of the freshness to see the corpse of a female bandit.

At the door of the castle in the distance, Charles and Tonio led their horses to say goodbye to the owner of the castle.

An old woman, holding Charles' hand and said to him at a slow speed, "Don't worry, I will take good care of Miss Masa. When her body recovers, I will send her to the church for cultivation. I will send her letter to her family tomorrow."

Charles thanked the old woman and said, "Thank you, old lady."

Next to it, the lord here punched Tonio on the shoulder with a force, "Next time you come and say to me in advance, I'll prepare the wine to wait for you."

Tonio also punched him, "Don't mix in the water in the future."

That night, the woman who was an insider in the bandit finally got her. Then Artoria took her, Tonio and others to rescue Masa, who was tortured and covered in bruises and dying in the mountain village outside the two hills.

Then, Tonio, who was familiar with the place here, immediately brought Masa to the lord here and was also a friend of Tonio's youth to treat him.

Later, with the joint persuasion of Charles and the Marquis' mother who followed the caravan, Masa, who had recovered some of his spirit, gave up the idea of ​​seeking death.

After appeased Massa, Charles wrote letters to Baron Eberbach and Madam St. Angel, and asked the old lady to arrange for someone to deliver the letter to Madam St. Angel.

According to the tradition on the mainland, people like Masa who encounter unfortunate "uncleanness" will not be limited to men and women who will go to the church to practice for two or three years to "purify the filth in the body" and to heal all the injuries that should be treated.

Charles rode the Purple Hyatt and Tonyo to chase the caravan, who were expected to catch up before supper tonight, and then leave the Kingdom of Fillingen and enter the south of the Kingdom of Biberach together tomorrow.

While the two were chatting on the way, Tonio said to Charles: "I didn't expect this group of bandits to be quite smart. They made the torches into words, and raised two handfuls by one person. More than 200 people looked like thousands of people. If an ordinary caravan was about to be scared to death."

"There must be a nobleman behind these people. How can ordinary bandits have so many people?" Charles asked. He had to enlighten Masa before, so he did not interrogate the interrogation of the bandits.

Donio said "hehe" twice, "Who else is there except the people from Bischberg in the south? I have done too many people to send people to the borders of neighboring countries to rob caravans, and we have encountered so many people."

"As soon as we siege, they hid back to Bischberg. They were still smart, and their things were still from Bisberach."

"They said that the person responsible for contacting them was a man with a stabbing sword, and that man had a little finger in his left hand."

Charles sighed and said, "It was the fourth prince of Bischberg, the one they contacted died in the maze. I paid attention to him when they came to my house."

Then he pointed to his left shoulder, "He stabbed me with a sword, and at the same time I stabbed him into his chest with one sword."

Donio thought for a while, "Oh, you cut it into pieces with the ice blade."

Charles nodded.

Tonio stopped talking after saying "hehe" twice. Barnett I would know what he knew soon.

Then Charles asked Tonio, “Is there a lot of things like this kind of person who sends women to pretend to run away and sneaks into the caravan as an insider?”

He found that the caravan was already familiar with this situation. For example, all the elves wore helmets without revealing their ears, and sent people to pretend to be tempted by the other party's beauty to actually monitor the other party, searching the other party in the name of touching the foot. The lottery draw for the night watchman was even more a shady curtain in the dark. Finally, when the enemy thought his plan had succeeded, he gave the enemy a fatal blow.

And the whistle he blew at that time was aimed at this situation.

"There are many, both men and women, but there are many women." Donio said, "I have also met people who have really escaped several times."

"This world..." Charles sighed deeply.

Tonio also shook his head and smiled bitterly.

When the two of them caught up with the convoy, the convoy began to set up camp. The sound of the mages exploding wells and burrows on the ground went far away, and even alarmed the birds in the nearby forest.

Just as the two were preparing tonight's dinner, Aubrey, with a confused look on his face, found Charles, "Charles, today Yalfreid asked me if I wanted to buy a comb 26 times. Do you have any clues?"

Charles smiled and refused to answer.

At the same time, Donio was laughing aside, who deliberately touched his bald head like Aubrey.

But he soon couldn't laugh because Alfreid came to him.

After dinner that night, Charles was preparing to go outside to practice swords with Artoria. At this time, Aubrey called Charles and the others to stop him.

Aubrey, holding a long sword in his hand, said to Charles: "Charles, come, let me try your recent achievements in practice. If you can never defeat thirty seconds, your salary will double."

Charles looked at the second in command of the caravan with a black thread. You can say this too. Charles' monthly salary is still 5 dinars per month, and if it doubles, it will be 10 dinars.
