In the tavern, the tense atmosphere relaxed a little because of Hannah's appearance.
"Hello, I am the son of the mayor of Chenwu Town, Li...ster!" Liszt stroked his chest, bent down, and showed what he thought was the most perfect etiquette to say hello to Hannah.
Unexpectedly, Hannah ignored Liszt, walked straight past him, and stood in front of Downton.
"You left in such a hurry last time that I didn't even have a chance to thank you."
Hannah was very beautiful, and her smile was like a glass of mellow wine, which almost made all the men in the tavern drunk. Their eyes couldn't help but fall on the female mage's breasts.
The collar of the mage's robe was slightly wide, slightly exposing some of her fair breasts, which made a sound of swallowing saliva.
Liszt's expression suddenly turned ferocious. No one had ever dared to ignore him like this. At this moment, he wanted to press Hannah on top of him and ravage her fiercely.
"No need." Downton declined.
"You seem to be in some trouble? **, what's going on?" Hannah pretended not to understand what Downton meant by rejecting people thousands of miles away, and asked Vieri.
"As I said, don't call me by my nickname in crowded places." Vieri muttered and put his arm around Downton's shoulders. "This mayor's son is forcing our friends to do hard labor."
"Please be careful with your words, it is not coercion, it is a legitimate duty." Liszt looked at Fanny, who was following Hannah with sleepy eyes, and decided to give in first, and then make plans after finding out their origins.
.
As the son of the mayor, Liszt is not an idiot. Through his clothes, words, deeds, and behavior, Liszt instinctively felt that these people were not easy to deal with. Their disdainful attitude towards him was not just pretending, it was obviously because he had seen too many people.
A person of my own status.
"You are always too polite. I said, if you have any requests, just ask." Hannah rolled her eyes at Downton, pretending to be familiar, and looked at Liszt, "I will provide him with gold coins to exempt him from labor."
"No." Liszt refused directly.
"Don't bother, I'll do the labor for a month." Downton's wealth was enough to buy the entire Morning Mist Town, but he knew that Lister was out to deal with him, so bribery would not work at all.
Besides, Downton didn't want to beg for mercy in a low voice and give him back the gold coins, otherwise he would be miserable for the rest of his life.
"Downton, don't be brave, he is obviously going to deal with you." Fanny, who was wearing pajamas, hugged Downton's arm and touched his chest. She would not have done this if it weren't for Hannah's orders.
"I will report to the Dagger Mine tomorrow." Downton pulled away from Fanny.
Because of this action, the little loli looked at Downton carefully, then looked at Fanny, and thought to herself, she couldn't really be a lolicon, right?
Fanny is not a beauty on the level of Hannah, but she is definitely on a higher level than the dancers. However, Downton actually pushed her away, making the mercenaries secretly curse at her confusion.
"Very good, I like your courage. I hope that a month later, you can still talk to me with your current momentum." Liszt turned and left. After taking a few steps, he stopped again. "By the way, I forgot to tell you."
If you can't hold on any longer, you can come to me at any time, but don't try to force yourself to death."
Even a fool could hear the deep threat contained in these words. The mercenaries knew that if Downton refused to give in, he would most likely die in the mine.
"Master, are you just going to let him go?" As soon as Liszt left the tavern, the servant immediately interrupted, "What if those people in the mine also covet Downton's weapons?"
"After that kid has suffered such a loss, do you think he still dares to show off with weapons?" Liszt disdained, "Besides, it's just a few mine tyrants and supervisors, what qualifications do they have to compete with me?"
"Master is wise!" the servant flattered him.
"Go and find out the identities of those three as soon as possible. If they are trash fish, I will let them know the consequences of offending me." Liszt often engaged in murder and robbery, causing several missing persons cases on the chaotic border.
He has too many excuses to get out.
Watching the servants disappear into the dark streets to inquire for information, Liszt hurried back to the manor. Soon, several big shots would be coming. He had to be fully prepared. As long as he pleased them, all his status and wealth would be lost.
At your fingertips.
After the conflict ended, the mercenaries all sat back, but the noise did not subside. Almost all of them were discussing Tang Zheng and his perfect weapons.
"Everyone, I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first." Before Downton even raised his foot, Vieri had already rushed forward, blocking the way.
"Friends, we don't mean any harm." Vieri emphasized, giving Hannah a wink.
"If we are friends, we won't force others to do anything." Downton retorted, sneering.
"It seems there is some misunderstanding between us?" Hannah smiled bitterly and tried hard to explain. Of course she could force Downton to reveal the secret of Crow Hill, but that would raise more questions.
"Hannah, are you insulting my IQ? Or are you a fool?" Downton hesitated on how to get away. Fighting would definitely not work. Not to mention Hannah and Vieri, Fanny alone would probably be a fool.
Not even.
"Boy, you are so rude, do you know the identity of Sister Hannah?" Fanny scolded. In her opinion, Sister Hannah has looks and family background, and Downton should kneel down and lick her.
"Why should I know?" Downton asked expressionlessly, but there was a burst of anger in his heart.
This is a commoner with no status at all. It turns out that people think that talking to him is a kind of charity and promotion. There has never been such a moment when Downton longed for rights and wanted to change his situation.
"You guys are good or bad, big brother, let me go, I'll get the weapons, and let's fight our way out." Hutao bared his little white teeth and kept flapping like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
"I took the liberty." Hannah exhaled. Seeing that she couldn't get closer, she could only keep things business-like, "Downton, we are all smart people. You must also know the reason for my coming."
Downton cursed secretly, why did he have such a good intention to save people, but this happened to him? He had never peeked into Lady Luck's underwear, so why did he bother himself so much?
"If you share the secret of Crow Ridge, you will get a generous reward. For someone like Lister, you just need to say a word, and I can make him or even his family disappear." Hannah offered a price,
"Of course, you still own half of the wealth there."
"Sister Hannah!" Fanny was anxious. Those were royal tombs, why should she give half to Downton? In her opinion, if she took this kid back, beat him up and tortured him, he would know everything.
"Stop arguing." Hannah stopped Fanny and looked at Downton sincerely, "Don't refuse in a hurry. Think carefully. You are just a commoner. Are you qualified to protect your wealth? It's better to give it to you."
Value' maximized."
Downton did not deny the secret of Crow Ridge. The more he talked with people like Hannah, the more information he leaked.
"Then, I wish that we will have a harmonious atmosphere next time we meet." Hannah turned to leave, and Fanny glared at Downton and quickly followed.
"Friend, think about it carefully. If you refuse, with Hannah's character, she will definitely not take it forcibly, but Fanny will definitely spread your secret to everyone. When the time comes, those mercenaries will definitely smell it.
It pounced like a shark smelling of blood." Vieri patted Downton on the shoulder and sang blackface, and the threat in his words was clearly audible.
"What secret?" Little Loli blinked, curious.
"Let's go!" Downton picked up Hutao's backpack and took her out of the Golden Ivory Tavern.
"Just let him go like this?" On the third floor, Vieri found Hannah standing at the end of the corridor, looking at Downton on the long street through the window, "Will someone else get there first?"
"A young man who has been working as a postman since he was twelve years old, sleeping only a few hours a day and working hard to earn money to support his sister, must have a tough mind. If he does not suffer some big losses and destroy his self-esteem and self-confidence, he will never compromise."
Over the past month or so, Hannah has learned everything about Downton. He is definitely a hard-working man. If it weren't for the tombs involved, she would have already started to recruit Downton. If you train this kind of person, he can definitely become a member of the family.
of assistance.
Vieri didn't say anything. He had already decided to arrange for someone to go to the Dagger Mine to cause some big trouble for Downton.
"I'm tired, you guys go to bed!" Hannah walked into the bedroom, thinking deeply. It was necessary to arrange for someone to take care of Elaine. This might be a breakthrough, so should we find someone to deal with Tang in the name of Liszt?
What about Dun?
Hannah knew she should do this for the sake of her family, but the softness in her heart made her want to refuse.
Standing in front of the window, Hannah thought of Downton's black and sincere eyes, and of his help that he didn't ask for in return. If it weren't for him, she would have been eaten by the ghoul as lunch.
"Father, what should I do?" Hannah sighed deeply, and the moonlight was like water on the floor, pouring out her sorrow.
The goblin was leaning on the horse post, snoring and drooling all over the floor.
The little Loli took off the leash and tied it to her wrist again. She quickly ran after Downton without waking her 'pet'.
Ah, the goblin let out a scream and was dragged to the ground by the little loli. He was waving around hurriedly, but he couldn't get up.
"Master, I...I'm going to die!"
"I've given you the gold coins, please leave. I have a lot of things to do recently." Downton knelt down, touched the little Loli's head, and warned, "Never sleep outdoors outside the town at night."
Feeling the warmth of Downton's palms, Hutao's nose felt sour and her eyes were blurred by tears. How long had it been since she had felt the care of others? It had been so long that she couldn't even remember.
When the little Loli cried, Downton was at a loss. He quickly wiped her tears, but thought that the leather armor was too hard, so he quickly stopped.
"Wu Tao won't leave, Hu Tao will help you!" Little Loli wiped her nose and tears with her arm, looked at Downton, and her childish voice revealed incomparable seriousness.
"Little Lolita, I found you!" Before Downton could reply, a rough voice suddenly sounded.
