762, Mutiny
"I am not the devil's minion!" The bard struggled to break free from the vines.
But he obviously thought too much. Even a strong black iron warrior would have a hard time breaking free in a short time, let alone him.
Although he couldn't break free from the shackles of the vines, the bard didn't know where he got the courage and said loudly:
"I'm not lying! His Highness Sean promulgated this decree three days ago, and it has been spread throughout the city and town. If you don't believe me, you can ask..."
"Don't listen to this man's rumors to confuse the public!" Baron Skrang interrupted him loudly.
Then the baron jumped onto the grain pile and punched the bard hard, knocking him unconscious.
A burst of exclamations suddenly erupted from the crowd below the grain pile, and everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them.
The baron glanced majestically at the surrounding villagers and said loudly: "As a minion of the devil, I should have burned him to death directly, but in order to get more information about the devil, I decided to take him back for detailed questioning.
Everyone present, listen, you are not allowed to move out of the village during this period, and anyone who disobeys the order will be treated as a claw of the devil, and I will burn him alive on a pile of firewood, do you understand?"
Facing the menacing Baron, the villagers below fell silent for a while. Everyone was trembling and did not speak, and a few people nodded.
"That's good!"
The baron grabbed the unconscious bard by his collar, dragged him down the grain pile, and then dragged him towards his residence.
The surrounding villagers did not dare to stop them and could only watch the baron and his arrogant men leave the entrance of the village.
.
After the baron left, the village fell into silence for a while, and everyone's faces were as dark as water.
Someone asked in a low voice: "So, is the move we just discussed still possible?"
"You're stupid!" Someone scolded someone next to him: "Didn't you listen to the Baron? Do you want to be burned alive?"
"Are bards really minions of the devil? Why don't I think so?"
The villagers discussed worriedly.
As the elder of the village, old man Romney naturally has the ability to distinguish right from wrong after living for a long time. He can easily find out that the baron is lying!
So he said loudly: "Everyone, be quiet!"
After everyone calmed down, he said to everyone:
"It's easy to determine whether the bard is a minion of the devil. I'll ask my son to go to the town to inquire about it. You can go home and wait for the news."
"Okay, then we can wait for the news with peace of mind." The surrounding villagers were also helpless and could only go back to their homes to wait for the follow-up of the matter.
.
Rogge followed Baron Skrone back to the baron's mansion.
The baron patted his shoulder happily: "You did a good job and informed us of the matter in time. I decided to reward you with 5 gold coins, which is already a lot!"
"Thank you, Lord Baron!" Rogge said excitedly.
[Read books and get cash] Follow the vx public account [], and you can also get cash by reading books!
5 gold coins is almost equivalent to his income for two months!
"Go back and tell me if anything similar happens in the future and I will reward you." the baron said majestically.
"Okay, Lord Baron!"
Rogge was overjoyed and returned home with 5 gold coins in his pocket.
With the income of these 5 gold coins, Rogge felt that the sky had become bluer, the water had become clearer, his son's mischief was not so disgusting, and his wife's pancakes were much more delicious than pickled herring.
But at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Roger heard a noise coming from outside.
He went out and made some inquiries, and found out that something big had happened!
It turned out that old man Romney's son came back from the town and told the villagers that what the bard said was true.
The villagers were angry, organized themselves, took up hoes and scythes, and surrounded Baron Sklon's mansion to demand an explanation and to release the bard.
After getting the news, Rogge immediately hurried to Baron Skrang's house.
But he arrived too late. By the time Rogge arrived, the two groups had already started fighting outside the mansion!
More than a dozen peasants fell down, and the baron's thugs were no better. Many gangsters were being beaten by the peasants. The scene was extremely brutal.
Although Baron Skron was a bronze-level warrior, he could not defeat the four-handed man with two fists. Facing the hundreds of peasants in Wuyang Wuyang, he had no good solution.
At the gate of the house, Baron Sklon rode on a pure-blood white horse and compromised with the farmers: "Okay, I agree to your conditions. I will release the bard now and declare him innocent. That's all.
?”
"This is not enough!" The old man Romney opposite didn't know where he got the confidence, and said loudly: "We also have the right to move, and we must be allowed to move to Jon City!"
"Yes, yes, we have to move!"
"Who would still want to stay in this shabby village and be oppressed and exploited by you?"
"We're leaving tonight."
For a time, public dissatisfaction boiled.
Baron Skron was a little panicked.
How should this be handled? He couldn't order his men to arrest all the farmers, could he?
But if he doesn't arrest him, he won't be able to control the farmers if they sneak away.
Damn, what a headache!
But just then, the baron saw Rogge, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
So he pointed at Rogge and shouted loudly: "That's him! It was him who reported the bard's rumors to confuse the public, so I went to arrest him, and I also gave him a reward of five gold coins!"
The baron sold Rogge without hesitation.
After hearing the baron's words, all the eyes of the audience turned to Rogge, and the raging anger almost swallowed him up.
"I didn't, please listen to my explanation." Rogge also panicked and hurriedly wanted to escape home.
But he was old and frail, and he was grabbed by the young man after running a few steps, and kept hitting him with sticks and fists.
Seeing that he had successfully diverted his attention, Baron Sklon immediately waved his riding crop.
"drive!"
The thoroughbred horse has a very strong temper and quickly trampled over the crowd, leading its owner to break through the encirclement of farmers.
After leaving the encirclement, the baron quickly rode out of the village.
As he ran, he shouted: "Colon, Kurt, hold on! I'm going to see Viscount Moore Henry for reinforcements, and I'll be back soon!"
The baron's voice gradually disappeared at the entrance of the village.
.
More than ten minutes later, Baron Skrang rode his horse to the residence of Viscount Henry Moore.
With his identity, he rode his horse directly into the mansion, and the guards around him did not dare to stop him.
After a while, the Viscount's butler came out and saluted respectfully: "Lord Baron Skrang, it's not yet time for the dinner, why did you arrive early?"
"Hello, Butler Joel!" the baron returned the greeting: "The farmers in my territory have mutinied. I must see the Viscount immediately!"
