Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 279: Road encounter

Chapter 279 Road Encounter

The rumble of horseshoes shattered the silence of the night.

Nearly a hundred light riders rushed to the stop and stopped at the two mountain passes. A big man, headed by him, waved his hand, and since a small team of ten came out riding, spreading around the guard, the remaining Knight(s) dismounted to start feeding and drinking water for his mount, and began a short rest. An hour later, these more than a hundred light riders re-launched, and leaped away in the direction of the King City plain ...

No one expected that the two hundred light riders had lost two of them when they returned to the road. Lorist and Tarkel got out of the bushes and listened to the sound of the hoof of the horse as they drifted away. They shook their heads slightly and they began to hit the road.

If you follow the avenue of slave Bit Port to Hamidas King City, carriage can be reached from morning to night, it only takes fourteen or five hours. If it is a messenger, it can be reached within ten hours. But if you rely on two legs, it will take at least a day and a half, usually two days.

Lorist and Tarkel cannot go down the road to Hamidas King City. After all, the road to King City is now in the hands of Norton Family armed forces. Riding and sitting on carriage to reach Hamidas King City, the fool will be suspicious. Lorist and Tarkel are ready to take a slash in the hills, posing as those slaves who escaped the enemy Bit Port to escape the Aristocrat(s), and climb over the hills to find the way back to King City.

I walked for more than two hours and took two breaks. It was already shone.

The Lorist who walked in front stopped his footsteps, pointed to the front, and sat down with Tarkel to overtake him.

Here is a sparse grove, not far away is a small stone hill, just over the small stone hill, the sound of flowing water and noise are coming ...

Under the Xiaoshiqiu is a fast-flowing stream. There are several people resting on the rocky beach of the stream. It looks like Aristocrat(s) who escaped from the slave Bit Port.

In the middle of the creek stands a tall man with a tanned complexion. His red * naked back is covered with old whip marks. At the moment he was bending over to catch fish from the deep stream of Qi Thighs, but he didn't seem to have much experience in catching fish. Although his hands were like a fan, he always slowed down and didn't catch a fish when his body was soaked.

On a large rock on the shore sits a gorgeously dressed Aristocrat(s), about 30 or so, with a pale face and eyesless, and the whole person is paralyzed on the large rock. Bare feet are letting a person in gray clothes. The old man was holding a massage, and he still cursed the swearing dogs such as the useless dog * **** in the stream.

Next to this Aristocrat(s), a middle-aged man in his forties is squatting, wearing a brown leather armor, holding a long sword in his hand, staring straight at the stream with his eyes, and from time to time he echoes the Aristocrat(s). Screamed or scolded.

On a large slab, three or four meters behind this middle-aged man, lies a big man wearing bright silver chain mail, with his hands resting behind his head, watching the farce indifferently. Look like.

Tarkel made a few gestures towards Lorist. When Lorist nodded, he walked out from behind the hidden tree and walked towards the stream beach.

"Who?" The man in chain mail lying on the big slate was the most alert. He jumped up, pulled out his sword for alertness, flashed golden light, and flashed a sword-shaped sword on the sword. It was actually a Golden Rank. Swordsman. It's just that although the man wearing chain mail is a Gold Swordsman, his warning posture is a bit ridiculous. His forefoot is stomped and his center of gravity is facing backwards. This is clearly a bad situation, and he immediately turned around and fled.

The squatting middle-aged man and the Aristocrat(s) relying on the big rock also closed their mouths. The middle-aged man pulled out his sword, and he was holding a guard-like figure. Then Aristocrat(s) kicked his foot. The old man looked angrily and said, "You're not ready to put on your shoes ..."

The big man in the stream also straightened up, watching the sound of the woods with vigilance.

"Don't be nervous, Carrick, it's me." Tarkel appeared beside the stream.

The middle-aged man with a long sword saw that it was Tarkel and hesitated: "Is it you, Tarkel?"

"You shit, Lao Tzu was miserable by some of you two. You have to force Lao Tzu into the inner city and say what the inner city can hold. Mom's others have given up on the inner city before they attack you. To break through, throw Lao Tzu behind the team and almost get arrested. If Lao Tzu's fate was too big, this life will be killed in your hands ... "Tarkel scolded and slapped a few big stones across the stream and went there Young people go.

It is clear that the person who came is Tarkel, and the middle-aged person is also relieved: "It's you, Tarkel, I thought Creamer and they were with you ..."

"Crimmer? He was dead. He was with us when he was just out of the city, but he flew an iron bolt not far from the gate, nailed him directly to the wall, and scared us. Half-dead. Then we continued to run, but at the dawn, I and Bai Luopu, Fei Linde, they were separated, and later the enemy cavalry chased up again ... "Tarkel nonsense while walking to the middle-aged man.

"You came here alone?" It wasn't the middle-aged man named Carrick who asked, but Gold Swordsman who was still wary.

"Pull it down, how can I have that ability." Tarkel sat down with a tired face, stretched out his hand, took a few sips of water from the stream, drank half a full, and then answered, "If it was not for us Chamber of Commerce Three guards were sent to follow us, and I was caught or killed by those cavalry long ago. "

"Locke, all come out, they are all okay." Tarkel yelled at the woods twice. Lorist flashed out of the woods, and came slowly, keeping alert.

"He's your Chamber of Commerce guard? Why haven't you seen it before?" the middle-aged man named Carrick asked curiously.

"They followed me in secret, one was to protect the safety of me and Els, and the other was to report to the Chamber of Commerce what we did during this tour. If it was not urgent, they would not have appeared to me. "Tarkel explained.

Oh, everyone understands that this is a traditional behavior of many of Grindia's Aristocrat(s) Aristocratic Family, which is to secretly monitor and protect the family children when they go out, and report back the family children ’s journey and performance in detail, so that Understand the character of this family's children, and evaluate whether he has the talent to inherit the family or is not worth the cost of training. I just didn't expect Tarkel to have such treatment.

"Don't you say they have three?" Carrick asked, looking at Lorist.

Tarkel yelled: "I do n’t know what mold has fallen before I can travel to your broken archipelago and just run into this **** war! Is n’t it that you have never had any enemies? You have been beaten to your nest! If you stay in the outer city and show your identity the first time, in the name of our Peterson Chamber of Commerce, you will be treated like a guest, at least you will have no worries.

I was brought into the inner city and followed you to break through, and ran into the middle of the night and encountered the cavalry again. They would not listen to my explanation and cut the sword. Otherwise, the three guards would have already finished the rescue. Well now, three cavalrymen were hung, and two of us were dead. If it wasn't for Locke who was familiar with the mountain forest and led me to escape, would the labor and capital still have to go through the mountains and eat so much pain? "

Carrick groaned his nose: "Tarkel, we also wanted to protect your safety before taking you to the inner city. This is a good intention as a friend. But we did not expect the enemy to be so powerful ..."

Tarkel shook his hands and dried the drops of water on his hands: "How the **** did you provoke such a powerful enemy? I seem to have heard people in Chamber of Commerce talk about the family with the bear pattern on this banner, I just ca n’t remember what it ’s called? ”

Carrick crouched down again: "I also do n’t too clear Chu. I heard that the Aristocrat(s) and slave firms in the kingdom two or three months ago united and sent tens of thousands of people to Andinak Kingdom Silowas Islands During the big hunt, tens of thousands of homeless slaves were arrested. However, their loss was huge and many people died. The Silowas Islands seems to be an Territory named Norton Family ... "

"Norton Family?" Tarkel jumped up as if frightened: "How dare you, how dare you mess with Norton Family? No wonder someone was knocked in the door ..."

"Hmm? Do you know Norton Family?" Carrick asked.

"I have heard people say that they are known as Northern Land's Roaring Angry Bear, they are former Krissen's Empire military Aristocrat(s), and defended the frontier of Northern Land for Empire. I have heard people in Chamber of Commerce before going out and saying that in Northern Land Norton Family the 100,000 army that defeated Iberia Kingdom . Are you mentally ill to provoke such a powerful enemy? It is endless to say that military Aristocrat(s) and him are resentful, and you are in trouble this time. But I ca n’t figure it out. Is n’t Territory of Norton Family in Northern Land? Why Silowas Islands Also became their Territory? "

"I don't know the truth. I heard that Silowas Islands is also the new Territory of Norton Family. Norton Family recruited 50,000 to 60,000 young people to develop and build on the island, so the people above started to fight these people. Idea. When we last met, we said that in the past few years our Hanayabarta kingdom lacked slaves, so I heard that there are so many young people who are not jealous ... "Carrick said.

"Are all Aristocrat(s)s in Hanayabarta kingdom all idiots? Before you start, you have to figure out the details of each other. Why not think about it and have the ability to recruit 50,000 or 60,000 young people to develop and build on the family Territory? Will Aristocrat(s) Aristocratic Family be a mess? Ordinary Aristocrat(s) ca n’t even support 50,000 to 60,000 leaders! Besides, is n’t it your own lack of slavery in your kingdom? Who tells you that you will die if you do n’t treat them as slaves? It ’s natural that it ’s not enough if you die a lot. Why do n’t you understand that slaves are not consumables? They will create wealth for their masters and treat them a little bit better. The more slaves die, the more they are actually the masters of the slaves. This loss, why do n’t you understand it? ”Tarkel counted off.

"Carrick, where did this friend come from? This seems to sound very different to our Hanayabarta kingdom's Aristocrat(s). Would you like him to talk about how to tune * teach the slaves to work well?" At this time, the white-faced Aristocrat(s) leaning on the big rock spoke again.

"Uh, Lord Viscount, I forgot to introduce it first, I'm really sorry. This is Great Young Lord Tarkel, the vice chairman of Peterson Chamber of Commerce, one of the seven giants of Trade Union. He and another Young Lord Eric Burke traveled to our kingdom Long-sighted, well, that's his guard, called ... called ... "Carrick forgot what Lorist was called.

"His name is Locke and he is the guard of our Peterson Chamber of Commerce. I'm very glad to meet you. I respect you Lord Viscount and Peterson Chamber of Commerce's Tarkel." Tarkel will pay respectfully to the white face Aristocrat(s) half-lying on the rocks. But the white-faced Aristocrat(s) put a foot on the shelf and snorted straight from his nose, indicating that this was the answer.

"Who is he?" Tarkel didn't care, dragged Carrick to take two steps and whispered at the stream.

"It was Timba Viscount, one of the founding seventeen Duke(s), but already passed three generations, and the title fell from Duke(s) to Viscount. But his sister is the current Grand Princess of King Luther III, We just gave birth to the prince of King, so his title is likely to be re-promoted to Count ... "Carrick also answered in a very low voice.

The founding of the 17th Duke(s) is actually the leader of the 17 larger pirate gangs who established Hanayabarta kingdom and was named Duke(s). Of course, the pirate King who established the kingdom is not vegetarian. He made a rule. If the heir to the title of Duke(s) refuses to pay a relatively large amount of title inheritance, then the title will be reduced to one grade. Of course, Territory will not change anything, but the nominal title is lower and it is not good. From this point of view, the ancestors of Viscount were all ghosts and refused to pay the inheritance, so the title was reduced to Viscount.

"What about that?" Tarkel glanced at the Gold Swordsman lying on the large slate behind.

"That's the Golden Knight of Guffman Duke(s). It seems to be called Os, I don't know, but we met him yesterday afternoon. Timba Viscount paid a lot of money to hire him to **** us to Hamidas. King City, "Carrick said.

This Carrick is one of the fox friends and dog friends that Tarkel made in Nubbit City. He serves as a small clerk in the city's main government and is responsible for checking and supervising the management of the treasury. I was invited several times by Tarkel and gave me two gifts, and the two became good friends, almost all the material reserves in the treasury of the slave Bit Port were put together.

Tarkel promised him that if Peterson Chamber of Commerce opened a trading point in slave Bit Port, he would give him one-tenth of the shares. Therefore, for the safety of Daikin ’s life, after Norton Family armed forces landing and defeated the more than 3,000 miscellaneous soldiers composed of slaves, he pulled Tarkel into the inner city ...

As a frequent visitor to the city's main residence, this Timba Viscount naturally knows Carrick. After breaking out from the slave Bit Port yesterday, the Timba Viscount fled fast in the carriage , but was unlucky. His first trip to this hilly area also became the focus of the Joske and Yuri led scouts. Timba Viscount commanded his guards and servants to launch their first charge on the defensive position of the scout camp. As a result, his guards and slaves died, leaving only two slaves beside him. One was an old slave in gray clothes. The other is the big man who is catching fish in the stream.

Just in a hurry, I saw Carrick just now, so Carrick was caught by Timba Viscount and became his guard. Later, Guffman Duke(s) and others came, and Timba Viscount, who had died of the guards and slaves, became the object of neglect. Carrick was afraid that he and others would be designated as the target of death, and charged ahead, he suggested that Timba Viscount take a small path, avoid the road, climb over the hills and return to King City.

The Golden Knight Carrick, Os, suspected that he was on the run, so he went in the same direction with himself and others. But since Timba Viscount knew and hired him all the way to escort, Carrick couldn't help it. Who calls someone else is Golden Knight, and he is just Black Iron, speaking is useless.

Carrick secretly bites his ears with Tarkel: This Golden Knight called Os is not credible. He can betray even the orders of the family's Guffman Duke(s) and escape, then these people are like a group in his eyes. Ants. If Timba Viscount had lost all his salutes and belongings, and promised that he would give him a lot of money when he returned to King City, Carrick was very doubtful whether this Oss would come here to make a fortune.

So Carrick is the happiest one to see Tarkel. At least Tarkel is a Silver Swordsman. In case of something, I can resist a few more times to give myself a chance to escape ...

"What are you doing now?" Tarkel asked curiously.
