chapter 373, chapter 374(1/2)
After Dante thought for a while, he said: "When I was eight years old, I was adopted by an old man, and that old man was my master. He knew the art of war, and he knew every famous war that had ever happened on the mainland.
They all have their own unique insights, and can even come up with ways for losers to turn defeat into victory even in the most difficult times. Until now, I don’t know where his knowledge came from. And I, very logically,
I became his disciple and learned the knowledge he taught me. Later, when I became an adult, I found that I didn’t really like learning these things. Instead, I yearned for the unrestrained life and work of a troubadour. But the master, as an old man, did not like it.
Respecting my choice and intention, when I finished my studies, I said goodbye to my master and began to live the life of a troubadour traveling across the continent. Not long after, in my correspondence with my master, I learned that he had adopted an orphan again.
, named Lyman. And that Lyman naturally became the master's new apprentice. Soon, ten years passed, and I received the last letter from the master. The letter said that the master himself had realized that he was about to die soon.
, and asked me to go back to see him for the last time. When I rushed back, the master was already very ill and dying. Before the master passed away, he dismissed Lehmann and told me that although Lehmann had always been diligent and studious, he also had a strong understanding of these military arts.
However, he seemed to have evil intentions. To put it bluntly, he was a war maniac. He told me to take good care of this junior brother and not let him go astray. Later, after the master was laid to rest, Lyman and I came here
To be honest, his skills were not as good as mine at the art of war drills at that time, but I could also see that his ideas were very radical, and could even be said to be obsessive. At that time, I naively thought that if he really entered the art of war by mistake in the future,
Astray, I could still control him. However, within a few days, I found that he had secretly left without leaving a word."
Dante sighed and said: "I have been looking for his traces for a long time. Whenever I hear that there is a war somewhere, or that bandits occupy a village, I have to go there myself to find out. Until I heard recently that Sasha
The thing about Rand's 'Desert Eagle'..."
Xie Feng suddenly realized: "So you used a fake name at the beginning because you were afraid that if your junior brother was really in the Desert Eagle, he would recognize you?"
Dante nodded and said: "Not bad."
Xie Feng asked: "So, are you sure that Mr. Evil is your junior brother?"
Dante said: "It shouldn't be wrong. His military tactics are very similar to those of his master."
Xie Feng couldn't help but smile and said: "Since they are so similar, why did you still fall into his trap?"
Dante blushed with anger and defended: "Didn't I say that? The soldiers I commanded last time were not in good condition!"
Xie Feng smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I understand." Then he looked at Comstock, changed the subject and said, "Hmm? Master Kang, what is that baggage on your back?"
When Comstock heard this, he smiled and said: "It's something that was looted from the thirteen robbers. I didn't have anywhere to put it for a while, so I just took it with me." Then he opened the bag and showed it to Xie Feng.
Said: "Look, there are dinars, trinkets, and miscellaneous things."
Xie Feng suddenly became interested and said: "Hey, are there any interesting things?"
Comstock held the bundle in his left hand, turned it over with his right hand, took out something, and said, "Oh, there's another cake." Then he brought it to his nose and smelled it, frowning and said, "Damn, it stinks."
Then he threw it aside casually.
Xie Feng smiled and said: "What other good things can be found in ordinary robbers?" Then he turned his head away.
Who knows, Comstock suddenly said: "Huh? There is also a little wooden man...what is it used for?"
When Xie Feng heard this, he immediately turned around and said, "Show me!"
Comstock showed the little wooden man in front of Xie Feng inexplicably and said, "Are you still interested in these things?"
Xie Feng stretched out his trembling hands and took the wooden figure from Comstock.
Boom! Discover the mysterious map (10/1).
At this time, Arog suddenly smiled and said: "Feng Xie, I didn't expect you like to collect these strange things."
Xie Feng chuckled, took the wooden man back into his arms, and said, "I'm just collecting and playing with it out of boredom. I've already collected quite a few. It seems there are a set of twelve. I'm always trying to find a way to collect them all."
Alog suddenly tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said: "I seemed to have seen this thing when I was in the Kingdom of Rhodok."
Xie Feng felt excited, and then immediately asked: "Can I still find it now?"
Arog looked at Xie Feng's nervous look and smiled, then said: "Xia Le, I remember that you bought that little doll, right? If you don't mind, give it to Feng Xie."
A person from the team came out, smiled at Xie Feng, and said, "Feng Xie, do you still remember me?"
Xie Feng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It seems to be a bit impressive."
Schaller smiled and whispered: "When I first met you, I shot an arrow at you to keep you away."
Xie Feng's brows jumped and he said with a smile: "Ha, it turns out it's you."
Schaller continued to laugh softly: "Unexpectedly, the man who was chased by a group of bandits and ran away soon became the famous General Zuo of the Restoration Alliance Army."
Xie Feng smiled and replied: "Everything in the world is unpredictable."
Schaller asked with great interest: "Now you remember how it felt to be chased by robbers?"
Xie Feng said with a smile: "It feels similar to "Temple Run", except that others are running all the way and eating money, but I am running all the way and throwing money all the way."
Schaller was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Xie Feng, what you said is still incomprehensible but it is interesting." Then he took out a wooden figure from his arms, handed it to Xie Feng and said, "I originally planned to buy it.
You are here to make toys for my son. Since you are collecting them, I will give them to you."
Xie Feng thanked him repeatedly and then took the wooden figure.
Boom! Discover the mysterious map (11/1).
There is still one left! Where is the last one? Can you go back after collecting it?
"Huh? Feng Xie." Arog suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two and said, "Look ahead."
Xie Feng turned around and saw thick smoke billowing from the horizon ahead...
"Oops!" Xie Feng said in surprise: "Could it be that something happened to Shiba Zumo?" Then he turned to everyone and shouted: "Hurry up!"
Shiba Zumo is now in ruins. There are houses and buildings burned by flames everywhere, and smoke is constantly emitting. Along the way, corpses can often be seen scattered. Blood is sprinkled on the yellow sand, and the smell of burning is overwhelming.
No one can imagine what is happening here?
Xie Feng suddenly squatted down and picked up something from the sand. At first glance, he broke into a cold sweat - it was a bee!
Dante observed the surroundings and said: "If I guessed correctly, there must have been a war here not long ago. Could it be that the lords came to suppress the bandits?"
At this time, one of Arog's subordinates suddenly said: "There is a living person over there!"
Hearing this, everyone rushed over one after another.
I saw a man dressed as a desert bandit lying on the ground. A powerful arrow had penetrated his chest. He was panting. It looked like he didn't have much time left.
Xie Feng immediately rushed forward and asked the desert bandit: "What happened here before?"
The desert bandit opened his eyes, glanced at Xie Feng, and sneered: "Who... are you? Why should I... tell you?"
Xie Feng obviously didn't have the patience to waste words with this person, and said harshly: "Although you are going to die anyway, it's still too late to torture you!" Then he said to Comstock: "Comstock! Step on that
An arrow!"
Xie Feng usually called Comstock "Master Kong" directly, but now he directly called him by his name. It was obvious that his attitude was very serious and there was no doubt about it.
So Comstock did not hesitate, raised one foot, and stepped on the arrow that penetrated the desert bandit's chest.
"Ah!" The desert bandit let out a heart-rending scream.
After the desert bandit took a breath, Xie Feng immediately asked: "Speak quickly! What happened here!"
The desert bandit was shaking in pain, and then said: "I...I am from the Desert Eagle, no...not long ago, the Bloody Courage group came to our boss's place...we had a fight
…Later…both sides suffered losses…and both retreated separately…”
Xie Feng was obviously not interested in this and immediately asked: "Did you see a girl? She is wearing white clothes and carrying a box on her back."
"Female... girl?" The desert bandit said, "No... no..." Then he tilted his head and died immediately.
Arog asked with concern: "Feng Xie, what should we do now?"
Unexpectedly, Xie Feng collapsed and roared: "Find them all for me! I want to see people alive or dead or see corpses!"
Arog sighed, and then waved to his subordinates behind him.
Half an hour later, the villagers imprisoned in the mill were rescued, but still no news about Cecilia was found.
From the mouths of the rescued villagers, we learned that, as the lost desert bandit said, there had been a war here before, and the battle was very fierce. But as for what happened next, the villagers were trapped in the mill.
, so it cannot be known.
Looking at Xie Feng who was sitting on the ground with a haggard look on his face, Arog comforted him: "No news is the best news. Since no body was found, it proves that your friend is not in danger here. He may have been there."
If you escape, the worst you can do is to be taken away, so it's useless no matter how much you worry now."
Xie Feng smiled sadly and said, "Besides worrying, what else can I do?"
Arog said: "You should go back first, maybe she has gone home? Even if she is captured, you should go back and wait for news - the person who captured her will always ask for a ransom, right?"
At this time, a businessman suddenly said: "Oh! How did this place become like this in half a day?"
Xie Feng followed the sound and saw that it was Jamala with seven or eight people looking around in the middle of the ruins. When he saw Arog's troops, he immediately became alert and asked: "Who are you?"
Xie Feng stood up and said to Jamala: "Why are you here?"
Jamala was stunned for a moment and then smiled: "Ah ha! Feng Xie, are these the reinforcements you brought in? What? It seems that you have fought off all the bandits?"
Xie Feng shook his head and said: "No, this has been the case since we arrived..."
Comstock stepped forward and told Jamala the cause and effect.
Jamala said: "Oh... Feng Xie's friend is missing... This is indeed a headache."
Comstock quickly stopped him in a low voice: "Stop irritating Feng Xie by saying it!"
Jamala said with a nonchalant expression: "What's wrong? If you don't tell me, people will jump out?"
