Silent Crown Chapter 665: Next place
'Hospital Knights', those adults said so. ??
The child only saw them once, the only time.
Unfortunately, the place where they are stationed is too far from here. The average person has to walk along the road to the west for half a month and cross a large desert before they can find them in a small oasis.
The desert is dangerous.
The adults told him that, so the child was going to wait for him to grow up, so he went to find the noble knights, just like in the story, to be their servants, to sharpen their swords, and to wipe their riding boots. , Learning skills, withstand the tempering. Until one day, they recognize themselves, and they can become a member of the noble knight.
But he can't wait.
Before fourteen years old, there are still six years.
He looked at the scorching sun in the sky and waved the wooden knife in his hand in distress.
There are still six years.
When he turned his head, he saw a small black spot in the heat rising in the distance.
Someone is here.
The man came on a horse, but the sound of the horse's hoof was weak.
After walking in, the child found out: the man on the horse was very old, wearing shabby robes, like beggars, messy beards, and sunburns on his faces.
Neither mighty nor majestic.
Not like a knight, but riding a horse.
The horse covered in mud and dust walked in. The old knight's eyes were cracked and his mouth was dying with thirsty blisters.
"Water..."
The old knight raised his eyes and looked at him, begging: "Please give me a bowl of water."
He fumbled in his arms and took out two sweat-stained green copper coins. The child hesitated, took it, turned and ran away, after a long time, he ran back with a bowl of water.
The well dug from the saline-alkali soil, with a bitter taste and impurities in the water, was run over by children and sprinkled a lot.
But the old knight took it, but like a treasure, he raised his head and swallowed.
He drank half of the water in the big bowl, and the other half made him hesitate. He leaned down and brought the bowl to the horse’s lips. The horse drank the water.
Until now, the child has not seen that under the dirt and dust, the skin of that horse seems to be dark green. Very strange, just like the robe of an old knight.
The strange horse rolled his eyes, looked at the child, and suddenly stuck out his tongue and licked him.
The old knight smiled and stroked the horse's head:
"It likes you."
The child touched the saliva on his face, looking blank.
The old knight cherished a few drops of water from the bottom of the bowl and licked it into his mouth, wiped off the marks on his beard, and his voice was still hoarse: "Where is the next village?"
"It takes two days to go north, it's very far."
The child pointed to the distance and looked at the old knight’s shriveled purse, "You can take a break and live in my house tonight. My house has clean guest rooms, hot water and dinner. It only costs five children. "
The price of five children is quite cheap, but after hesitating for a while, the old knight shook his head and replied hoarsely:
"Time is too late."
Speaking, he patted the horse's head, and blamed the horse on its hoof and limped to the north.
The child is a little bit lost. In this ghost place, it is difficult to see a few outsiders throughout the year.
"Are you leaving?" he asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go to the next place."
The old knight said, "Then the next place."

Three hours later, a thunderous sound rang from afar.
Great earthquakes.
The blazing iron armor reflected the scorching sun, and the cloak of the blood cross fluttered in the wind.
The knights on the horse are in the dust, and the corners of their mouths are dry.
In the empty village, there is only a tattered Trojan horse, and the little boy on the Trojan horse is gone. A foul smell came from the deepest part of the village, green flies danced in the scorching wind, and there was a vague sound of wild animals chewing.
The front sword dancer turned over and got off his horse, drew his long sword, and walked into the village. Soon, he walked out with a small head in his hand.
Looks like a child, but there are dark spots on his face and dried blood on the corners of his mouth.
"Captain Bann, we are late."
The sword dancer replied hoarsely: "The disease has already come."
Among the knights, the silent man waved, another team of knights rolled over and got off their horses, raised the "shower" in their hands, and walked into the deadly village.
Soon, the light of flames rose from the village, and the dying beasts neighed one after another.
Under the scorching sun, the whole village seemed to be in the light, melting into the sun.
The black smoke rose from the ashes, condensing, like a pillar of disaster that propped up the sky.
The crows who came from afar found nothing. They were lost and hovered in the smoke, screaming.
It's like cursing.
"Let's go."
Bann turned his horse's head and looked at the hoof marks remaining in the dry mud.
His voice is hoarse, like burning iron:
"Go to the next place, and then to the next place."

After knowing how to cook, Ye Qingxuan soon realized the second advantage of the old nun.
——Diligent and dexterous.
Even in a deserted place like Guixu, where birds don’t shit~IndoMTL.com~, she can still use limited conditions to weave a few stylish cushions out of the withered weeds in the corner.
So, the masters finally bid farewell to the cold floor and the stone table, and the tortured buttocks had a warm cushion.
With food and cushions, life instantly becomes happy. Even in places like Guixu, the tight nerves were slightly relieved.
Although she lost Schubert's power, it was obvious that the old nun was not willing to be a burden to be taken care of, but played her role diligently.
It's better than nothing, but what she does is always satisfying.
Moreover, can't be more critical.
I really don’t know which monastery she used to be or which big family’s nanny she was, and she took good care of those old men who love to make trouble in every way.
Of course, Ye Qingxuan also got a cushion, and it was the best one.
Sitting on the only intact stone chair in the main hall, cushioned with withered grass, and leaning on the back of the animal skins offered by the old men, Ye Qingxuan suddenly felt the satisfaction of a mountain king in the morning light.
It's a pity that I am not a group of burly and brave bandits, but a group of scrawny old men...again, I really don't know why I have such a relationship with the old men.
Ye Qingxuan sighed helplessly, lowered his head, and looked at the page of the inheritance book in his hand.
After several hours of rewriting, the new chapter of Fate is finally completed.
It's just a few sheets of thin paper, but it's shrouded in a halo. After the structure is closed, the music theory no longer exerts gravitational force on the outside, and the complicated music theory on the pages of the book distorts the sunlight and binds it to the left and right of the notes.
This is the most precious part of the inheritance book page, which shows the theory of music, inscribes the theory of music, and also confirms the theory of music.
This shows that this path works.
Ye Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. 8
