The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 121: Chains of Destiny (Part 2)
Jeffta put away his pen and paper: "Did he bring any livestock?"
"No." The hostess replied, "Joshua took away a bag of the best cheese made this summer, and plans to go to the weekend market to exchange some fabrics and nails. Set up a small bed for Jonah so that he can wake up in the sun every morning. Joshua has prepared the wood and can start work when he comes back. He is the best nearby..."
"The best carpenter." Darkfire mage stood up, "I'll take a look at the chain bridge. If I happen to see him, I will come back with him."
"Thank you, Jeff Tower." Jove's voice was apologetic,
Jeff Tower waved his hand knowing that the other party could not see it, which counted as farewell,
He walked east along the small road on the hillside. Just after walking three hundred yards, he saw a small figure appearing in the distance. It’s only the male host who came here.
"Joshua." He yelled and waved at the other party, "It's me, you are coming back too late, lunch is going to be cold, I have great news to tell you."
The figure didn't seem to hear his call, and walked slowly, "What a laid-back guy." Jeff Tower mumbled, standing there waiting for the old friend, until a few minutes later, he realized something was wrong. Place,
The upper lip has a black, dense mustache, slightly bald, and a strong figure; Joshua's figure gradually becomes clear, but his steps are limping, and his ruddy face is **** gray, holding a handle in his hand. The blood-stained sword, every step it takes, it leaves a bright red footprint behind it,
"Joshua."
The young Darkfire Mage exclaimed and ran over. As soon as his hands touched Joshua, fatigue and pain finally occupied the host's body, "Jove..." Joshua planted. Falling into Jeff Tower’s arms, calling his wife’s name, his eyes scattered,
Jeffta clenched his teeth, took his old friend back to the cabin, knocked frantically on the door: "Jeff, open the door, Joshua is back, he is injured."
One second later, the panicked hostess appeared at the door. She was still holding a wooden spoon in her trembling hand. She was obviously reheating the cold lunch. The two lifted Joshua onto the bed and released him. Wiping blood stains on his clothes, a deep and long sword mark appeared on his thigh, and blood was still gushing from the hastily wrapped wound,
Jeff showed the strength of the farmer’s wife. She did not shed a single tear, but silently prepared hot water, towels and bandages to clean her husband’s wounds. Joshua held the sword so hard that Jeff Towers I can’t remove the **** long sword from his hand in any way,
"Have you heard, the master." Jove unwrapped the rag covering the wound. The hideous wound was exposed to the air. The towel was gently wiped, causing the host's body to tremble violently and snorted, Joshua's His eyes recovered for a short period of clarity, and Qiao Fu immediately called his husband softly,
"...Jeff." Joshua spoke weakly, and immediately appeared panicked: "Where's Jonah, where is Jonah."
"In the cradle, already asleep, don't worry about him." The hostess answered immediately,
Joshua barely propped up his upper body and stared at his wife: "Jeff, we must leave. Now, take Jonah to leave and go where no one can find..."
"Tell us, what happened." Jeff Tower reached out to support the old friend's back, feeling his muscles tightened from tension,
"...Jeff Tower." The male host only discovered the existence of the Darkfire Mage at this time, "Very well, you can also help, do you remember what you learned from the Wizards Association."
"You mean fire magic, of course, and I also found something more powerful..." Jeff Tower responded puzzledly,
"That's enough." As soon as Joshua sat up hard, blood flowed from the wound and Jove's face was splashed. "I killed the three of them and bought some time. Before the reinforcements arrived, We have to go far...pack things, Jove, bring cheese, sickle and dog, take out the gold coins from the sheepfold, leave everything else alone..."
The hostess did not ask the reason. She wiped off the blood with a hot towel, wrapped the bandage tightly around her husband’s wound, stood up to pack her bag, and Jonah was awakened by the adult’s conversation and lay on her small bed curiously. Look around, make a babble,
"At least tell me what's going on." Darkfire mage couldn't help yelling angrily,
Joshua gritted his teeth and stood up, propped his sword on the ground, and panted quickly: "There is no time to elaborate. Some people are looking for me. They are a group of organized villains. Everyone, There are the same crimson bird tattoos on different parts, at least, on the three bodies I killed. This should be the logo of their organization..."
"I'm looking for you, why." Jeff Tower was stunned. He didn't understand why his independent and diligent farmer would be chased by a mysterious organization. This should be the plot of a vulgar knight novel. It happened to a farmer,
Jeffli packed up his luggage, put Jonah on his back, and supported her husband's arm: "Master, which direction shall we go in."
"Go west through Kanno Village and enter the endless mountains." Joshua looked west,
The Dark Fire mage angrily said: "You are crazy, there is nothing but barren rocks and vicious monsters in the endless mountains. You can't survive there."
The host coughed twice, "I'm not crazy, Jeff Tower, the most important thing is to leave hope for survival. As long as there is hope, all difficulties can be overcome."
Pushing open the door, Geoff walked towards the western mountains with Joshua and Jonah on his back, with simple luggage and the family shepherd dog. Jeff Tower still failed to recover from the shock. , Followed stiffly, "Jeff, you tell me what is going on."
The hostess looked at her husband with inquiry, Joshua sighed,
"I curse your dark fire magic, Jeff Tower." Jove said, "It surely brings disaster... The three of us grew up in Canno Village together, but there is a secret, you don’t I know...Joshua is **** of betrayers."
"Betrayer." Darkfire Mage was a little confused,
"I can't say more, that will bring greater disaster." The hostess looked back at the baby Jona with distress. The little boy opened his clear eyes and didn't cry, as if he was thinking of running away. An outing, "Since Joshua found the letter left by his long-missing father at the bottom of the box, he told me that his life will be far away from all crowded places, away from the city, away from those in power, if I want to, ask me Accompany him to build a beautiful house in a beautiful place, give birth to a beautiful child, and be a happy farmer, but after so many years, there are no signs of danger. We slowly relax our vigilance, but we did not expect , It's time to come, it's finally here..."
"I still don't understand." In Jeff Tower's eyes, childhood playmates gradually became stranger,
At this time, seven or eight black shadows appeared on the distant hillside, and people with weapons were approaching quickly. Joshua’s bloodless face appeared in despair: "They are here, I killed the messenger People, destroyed the chain bridge, they still came so fast..."
"Block me." Geoff immediately pushed the Darkfire Mage to the front, dropped his bag, unwrapped Jona's baby, and looked around, choosing a tree with dense branches and cleverly climbed up, and carefully took the baby. Put it between two thick branches,
"Mom..."
The astrologer apprentice stood in the void and witnessed this happening. How many times he stretched out his hand, but couldn't touch his mother's body,
"Baby Jonah." Geoff looked down at his own flesh and blood. The little boy looked around with squishy eyes, not crying or laughing, "Mom will come back a little bit, you are not allowed to make a sound, hear No." The hostess made a silent motion, took out the milk bottle from her arms and stuffed it into Jona’s mouth.
The child who has passed the age of weaning but is still obsessed with pacifiers shows a satisfied look, stretches out his little hand, hugs the warm bottle,
Qiao Fu gently stroked his soft hair, left a farewell kiss on his pink cheek, jumped off the tree and stood beside her husband,
"You are as good at climbing trees as you were twenty years ago." Joshua stared at his wife's crow's feet but still young eyes,
"You haven't changed at all." Geoff replied with a smile,
Jeffta glanced nervously at the big tree with the baby hidden, took out various casting aids, scrolls and gems from the robe, ready to fight, "By the way, you said what you found." About the book Ya stretched out her **** hand and patted her old friend on the shoulder.
"Since you keep a secret from me, I also decided to keep this secret from you." The Darkfire Mage said puffedly,
The enemy has arrived. Four light-armored swordsmen, one heavy infantry, two archers, and a gray-haired middle-aged man wearing ordinary summer uniforms and leather boots, although empty-handed and no weapons, he can hit Young people immediately attracted everyone’s attention,
"You, follow me." The visitor pointed to Joshua and said in a tone that was accustomed to giving orders.
The farmer raised his long sword in reply, the loyal shepherd uttered a threatening low growl, and Jove took out the mowing scythe from his suitcase,
The middle-aged man looked at the team carefully, covering his mouth and making a weird giggle, "Hehehe, is this the task for today, farmer, peasant woman, and dog." He turned to the soldier behind him. "Gentlemen, they caused the casualties of three soldiers."
A swordsman pointed at Joshua nervously: "It’s him, sir. We were patrolling the Red Rock Fort Weekend Market. Pastor Donovan suddenly issued an order saying that the Detective Circle had discovered the'Here "Blood', our team of five rushed to the indicated place and found him in a blacksmith shop trading cheese for something. When he grabbed the nail, the sharp nail pierced his finger."
