lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Knight's Journey!
Before night came, the howling cavalry had rushed back to Mine Town.
The mine town at night is very quiet, except for the whispers from some people's homes in the town, there are almost no other sounds.
The return of the cavalry team is considered to have brought ripples to the peaceful mine town.
The elder of the town, Billy, since Locke and the others left, he has not taken care of Carl and asked him to accompany him at the entrance of the town.
Chewing on the dinner his mother-in-law had just brought over, old Billy talked with Carl, and looked at the road outside the town from time to time.
Karl knew the scruples in old Billy's heart, smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, a few thieves."
Although Carl gave old Billy some reassurance, he couldn't stop thinking about things when he got old. Old Billy hadn't lost the loss of these thieves all these years.
When the cavalry squadron led by Locke returned, old Billy ignored the bread he was chewing on, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, got up and ran over.
The cavalry came back very quietly, most of the townspeople of Mine Town ran out to see the cavalry who had just returned.
Bao Tie's horse hooves made a dull sound of stepping on the ground, and coupled with the orderly formation of the cavalry squadron, every villager felt a sense of security from the bottom of his heart.
This group of cavalry returned almost bathed in blood. Many people were separated from each other and they smelled an inevitable smell of blood.
Old Billy resisted the discomfort of smell and walked forward.
The leader of the cavalry is Locke. The bright yellow armor has been dyed red with blood at this time. In addition to the last sunset that has not yet fallen from the horizon, in the eyes of others, Locke is like the same **** demon.
"How's the situation?" Although he had guessed the answer from the momentum of the returning cavalry, old Billy couldn't help but ask, because the sky was getting dark, he didn't know if the cavalry was also downsizing.
Locke answered old Billy's question with action, a whistle was sent, and each cavalry threw up the cloth bag tied to their horse's leg. Twenty or thirty **** flew out, accompanied by scattered Blood water.
The courageous townspeople took the courage and walked in to see what was in the bag, "Oh!" Almost everyone who saw the real scene bent over and vomited.
The old Billy who is closest to Locke is the one who can see the most clearly. The head thrown out of Locke’s hands is the leader of the Red Maple Pirates who invaded their mine town the most frequently and caused the most damage. This face The man with a scar even came to town last month to blackmail him a good amount of money and food.
However, now, old Billy only saw his head, a scar on his face, which has been twisted and deformed because he endured an unknown amount of severe pain, like a multi-legged centipede lying on a winter melon, making old Billy Nauseous.
Old Billy is worthy of the mayor, and he quickly adjusted, "There will be no fish that slip through the net?" Because there are horses, if someone escapes, the mine town will face nothing. Ended ambition.
"No." It was Karl who answered Locke. He patted old Billy on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, no one can escape under the horse hooves of the Baron’s cavalry, let alone Rock lead the team."
Although old Billy still had doubts, he didn't show it, because he didn't see the spare horses and the treasure robbed by the Red Maple Pirates.
Carl was not interested in popularizing the powerful combat power of low-level servants to old Billy, nor did he think about old Billy's careful thoughts. He stepped forward and shouted at Locke, "You go back, I'll watch it in town!"
Locke, wearing armor, nodded, kicked the horse's butt, and rode towards Fengye Village.
The remaining cavalry, under the command of Karl, entered the mine town in an orderly manner.
Riding a horse, galloping on the bumpy mountain road, Locke's expression in the helmet is very dignified, he suddenly realized that he has been very different from normal people.
The cavalry team returned from victory, not the cheers of the townspeople of Mine Town, but the surprise and the sense of distance. He could even see the fear in the eyes of many people.
Whether it is Locke or the soldiers returned by Kaidoqi, they are indifferent to blood and death. Not to mention dozens of human heads, they have also seen more magnificent and more tragic. The mere smell of blood is simply for them. It's a trivial matter.
But ordinary civilians are different. More than half of the mine townspeople who felt such a strong **** smell at close range covered their mouths and wanted to vomit. As for those who didn’t vomit, they just smelled a strange smell and didn’t see the cloth bag. What are they all.
Riding and galloping in the night, just a little bit of starlight appeared, Locke could already see the big tree at the entrance of Fengye Village.
Instead of entering the village in a hurry, Locke rode to the river at the entrance of the village.
In March, the river has thawed, but it still exudes a chill, especially at night.
After dismounting, Locke jumped directly into the water. The biting river water stimulated Locke's nerves and washed away the smell and blood on his body.
His warhorse tilted his head, watching his master do such a strange behavior strangely, and snorted, as if mocking Locke's nerves.
Locke in the water saw that there was a lot of blood remaining on the horse, and the horse let out a frightened neigh, and was ruthlessly dragged into the water by Locke. The low-level attendant Locke now has a pure arm strength comparable to a brown bear. .
After staying for three minutes, the smell was almost washed away before Locke jumped ashore.
The horse doesn't seem to know how to swim, and he flutters wildly in the water. At last, Locke used a bit of vindictiveness, and brought the war horse to the shore in a thrilling manner. He was the low-level attendant, without armor or vindictive body. Under the circumstances, there is no interest in fighting against a horseshoe.
The horse that landed ashore looked at Locke with a little trembling, and murmured.
Locke turned on his horse. Without much action, the horse ran on its own, shaking the fur on his body as he ran. As soon as he ran to the entrance of the village, there was almost no water droplets on his body.
A few soldiers were still standing guard at the entrance of the village. They were all asked to stay when he left during the day. The soldiers were very dedicated and no one was lazy.
"Big Brother Locke!" As soon as he approached, the soldiers who remained behind recognized the person who came. Locke's armor was too iconic.
"En." Locke under the armor replied, "You don't need to watch them all, you can watch them in two groups." After leaving a word, Locke has already left on horseback.
"Yes!" The soldiers answered behind him.
When he arrived at his house, the door was already open. Old Locke knew that Locke was the captain of the cavalry. When there was the sound of horses hoof in the village, he knew that it was his son who had returned. He came out and opened the door openly.
Sure enough, it was their son.
Tia went to close the gate of the yard, and Old Locke looked at the horse that Locke had brought back in the yard.
"Better than those in the town station, and more energetic than the baron caravan!" Old Locke stretched out his hand, intending to touch the fur on the horse's neck, but the horse took two steps back, alert Looking at Old Locke, one of his hind legs was half raised, as if he would kick up at any time.
"En?" Locke glared, and a palm was gently placed on the horse's back at some unknown time. The horse was instantly quiet like a quiet baby, letting Old Locke mess with its beautiful fur.
"Why is your body still wet? Take off your clothes quickly, and I will let Leah wash you!" Tia is more concerned about other places.
Taking off the heavy armor, Locke handed the wet clothes inside to Leah who had been watching for a long time.
"Have you eaten? I'll go back to the house and take it for you if I haven't eaten," Tia asked.
"Not yet." Locke replied.
When Tia heard it, he immediately turned around and went into the house to get some food for Locke. There were two cakes and half a pot of vegetable soup left for dinner, which happened to be eaten by Locker.
"What does this horse eat?" Old Locke was still paying attention to the war horse that Locke brought back. This unusually handsome war horse was turned over by Old Locke two or three times like a large hedgehog.
"Don't worry about it, you can't die from starvation." Locke replied lightly. This is his negligence. There is no fodder for horses in the village. If you want to feed it, you have to go to town tomorrow.
But at least it is the superior horse of the cavalry squadron. It is not a big problem to be hungry for a day or two. Sometimes when the horse is marching in a hurry, it is normal for the horse to not eat all day and night.
Fortunately, the warhorse doesn't understand human words, otherwise it would have to cry to death. It was exhausted and followed Locke for a day. In the end, it not only took a cold shower, but couldn't even eat dinner.
Because of the day of fighting, Locke lay down early today.
Leah is still helping Locke pulp laundry. From this dress, Leah seems to smell something strange.
I moved my nose up and smelled it, and a faint smell of blood passed into Leah's nose, more of a man's breath belonging to Locke.
Leah blushed and hurriedly pressed her clothes into the water. She didn't care where the blood came from, as long as it wasn't from Locke.
When Locke took off his clothes, although there were many scars on his body, they were all scabs from old wounds. Leah found no other wounds.
As if thinking of the firm muscles that Locke had just revealed, Leah's heart became more confused, and she could only wash the clothes in her hands hard.
Tia has fallen asleep, but Old Locke is still asleep.
He always felt that he should feed this horse or something, otherwise, what to do if the animal is hungry? If he starves to death, he may have to pay for it.
The more Old Locke thought about it, the more he felt reasonable, and he got up in the middle of the night and went to the firewood room, where Locke placed his warhorse.
In the woodshed, the horse stared at the old Locke who had broken in spiritually. It still remembered the terrifying shadows left by its owner, and did not dare to make trouble with the old man.
He snorted impatiently. He thought that Old Locke was here to play with its fur again, and consciously moved his neck over, wanting to finish it quickly.
Several pieces of potato pieces and rice dregs appeared in Old Locke's hands, and the horse looked down and stared at something that he had never touched.
Ma Bi went over and smelled it, can you eat it?
It was Old Locke's squinting eyes that answered it.
The next day, Locke didn't wake up until ten o'clock, stretched his waist, and hit the routine boxing again. Although no one else taught him, Locke found these moves that he had explored very useful.
I planned to go to town at noon to see Hans and they never came back, but this plan was shelved.
Because his horse seems to have eaten up his stomach.
