Chapter 199: Every family has a hard-to-read scripture
In the Bloody Baron's castle, the Bloody Baron, who was not tall but could be considered round, looked solemn at this moment, and even his breathing slowed down a lot.
Behind the baron, all the subordinates also deliberately slowed down their breathing and frowned, as if they were nervous elementary school students who were calculating a chicken and a rabbit in the same cage.
Finally, the baron moved.
He silently pulled out the last card from the already bottomed card library and placed it on the table. After seeing the value of this card, all his subordinates cheered first.
"oh!!!!"
"It looks like I won!"
The baron drank a large glass of red wine with satisfaction and burped with satisfaction.
Chen Mo, who was sitting opposite him, could only sigh helplessly. After all, the cards in his hand were too poor. Because Gwent is a game of scores, winning or losing is also very strict on the quality of the deck. Regardless of the quality of Chen Mo's cards,
The numbers are still worse than the Baron's, so it's normal to lose.
"I'll win it back next time!"
Chen Mo packed up his cards and was about to leave, but was stopped by the baron again.
"Sir, actually, you are here for my reward!"
"Reward, no, I'm here to get the title of No. 1 in Willenquint cards!"
Chen Mo denied that the Baron's tragedy was doomed from the moment he committed domestic violence. What can a broken family prove when it is put together?
As a result, the baron's expression immediately changed, from the high-spirited one while playing cards to a decadent middle-aged man, and then he drank himself a large gulp of red wine again.
"Don't I have any hope at all, my Anna, my daughter!"
From the other party's regretful words, Chen Mo felt the other party's sincerity. In fact, the Bloody Baron loved his wife and daughter very much, but his alcoholism completely covered up this performance. No matter how gentle and considerate he usually is, when he is drunk,
Later, when he punched and kicked his wife and daughter, the so-called family affection was no longer so important!
"It's not without a chance. If you stop drinking, you might be able to win back your daughter. As for your wife, I'm afraid it's over!"
"What do you know?"
The baron stood up suddenly, his eyes red, staring at Chen Mo.
"I think you'd better calm down first, and pour out those things in your cup!"
"All my property, everything I have, as long as you help me find them, I will give you whatever you want!"
"No, you have already given it!"
Chen Mo shook his head and sat back on the chair.
"You helped Xili, I'll help you, we'll be even!"
"Xili, are you here for that girl?"
The baron suddenly realized, but this time he did not hide anything from Chen Mo, but pointed out where Xili went, but Chen Mo waved his hand.
"I know where she is now. Your wife is being held hostage. Your daughter has made new friends. She is well fed and clothed every day. Maybe she can give you a fat grandson in the future. At least for now, you don't have to.
If you’re worried, let’s talk about your problem!”
"I have sincerely regretted my problem!"
The baron's face turned red instantly. He sat on the chair helplessly and melancholy. He wanted to take another sip of wine, but after picking up the glass, he stopped and threw the glass away.
"Go bring me a pot of water!"
"Yes, it's a good start, but remember to boil the water before drinking it in the future!"
Chen Mo nodded. According to the Baron's wealth, there is no shortage of firewood to boil water. It is clean and hygienic, so you have to start by drinking boiling water!
As for the Baron’s family affairs, that’s a long story!
The baron's wife and the baron had a long-standing conflict. The other party cheated on the baron while he was at war. When the baron came back, he killed the pretty boy in a rage, and then punched and kicked his pregnant wife, causing the other party to make up his mind to abort the child.
, and later, whenever the baron got drunk, the beating would happen again.
The baroness couldn't bear it anymore and chose to flee the land with her eldest daughter.
It's just that escaping is a luxury for the Baroness. She signed a contract with three local witches in Willen and was cursed. She was kidnapped by a monster and trapped in the swamp of Willen. As for the Baron's daughter,
He ran to Cowburg, a small town northeast of Willen, and joined a religious organization called Eternal Fire.
There are endless grievances and disputes between the Baron's family of three, no, and the dead child's family. Otherwise, why is this task called "Every family has a sutra that is difficult to recite?"
And although the mission is ostensibly related to the baron, the masterminds behind the whole thing are the three witches of Willen, or existences similar to land gods. The other party controls everything in Willen and requires farmers to pay tribute every year.
All kinds of sacrifices, and they also ask for children from farmers, and claim to take the children to enjoy a better life. Is this possible?
The priest also said that he wanted to help the little boy live a happy life, but they also did many things they shouldn't do!
And the most important thing is that the bodies of these three witches are vulgar, like scarecrows carrying sacks. Compared with them, the 200-pound female environmental protection warrior from Northern Europe is a sight to behold!
Chen Mo was never one to judge people by their appearance, but the three witches really made him feel uncomfortable, not to mention that these three witches also did something that would definitely cost them, they tried to get their hands on Xili!
Because of the pursuit of the Wild Hunt, Ciri once asked three witches for help. As soon as the three sanctimonious people agreed, they sold Ciri to the Wild Hunt.
This is obviously the way to die!
"If we want to save your family, we must first clean up you and your men! We still have to wait for an expert to come over. That guy can help you find your lost son!"
"I see!"
The baron nodded, and then ordered his men to prepare a house for Chen Mo, but Chen Mo refused.
"I still have something to do. If a white-haired demon hunter appears, you can use this to notify me!"
Chen Mo handed a pull-out flare to the Baron, then explained how to use it, and then left again. On the one hand, because there were many Gwent masters in Willen who did not challenge him, on the other hand, he wanted to save the tragedy.
Then you have to change the environment first!
Although Willen is a miserable place, it can still be saved. The premise is that the baron can protect his village instead of allowing bandits and dark creatures to wreak havoc. The reason why the three witches of the swamp can thrive here is because they listen to them.
The people who speak can fill their bellies, and the chaotic society needs order!
It’s time for the name of Hunter to spread in the wizarding world!
