My daughter is amazing
Chapter 79
Chapter 79
The carriage drove slowly past the city gate, and there was a row of gallows in front of it, with several corpses hanging on it, some of which were even mutilated, and a wooden sign with crimes written on their chests.
Luo Er did not expect that such a primitive, barbaric, and cruel 'tradition' was still maintained here, so he couldn't help frowning, and asked in a low voice:
"Are these people from the resistance organization?"
"Do not……"
Jeanne shook her head and explained:
"They're just commoners who can't pay their taxes..."
"For the current principality, resistance organizations are nothing, only non-payment of taxes is a capital offense."
Luo Er was slightly taken aback, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Would you like to get out of the car for a walk? Can I show you the real Principality of Maude?"
Jeanna followed suit.
Roll hesitated, but nodded.
So the two jumped out of the carriage and walked down the street side by side.
Compared with Sweet Frost City, the area of Alpine Castle is much larger, and there are many more people on the street, but most of them are skinny, ragged, and dirty, and it is hard to tell whether they are refugees or not.
There were few shops to be seen on the street, and most of the people looked idle, squatting casually on the side of the street, their eyes full of numbness, silently looking at Luo Er and Jeanne.
There were also some people who cast greedy glances at Jeanna, but after seeing Luo Er next to her, they quickly turned their faces away and whispered a few obscenities.
Sewage and all kinds of garbage flowed across the street, filled with a disgusting stench.
There were also some skinny children who deliberately bumped into Luo Er, trying to take the opportunity to take the money in his pocket.
Luo Er quickly dodges and lets go.
The two of them hadn't walked out of a street before they met five thieves who were trying to touch porcelain.
One of them was unlucky and happened to be seen by a patrolling soldier, so he kicked up and threw the 'little' thief into the rubbish dump next to him, then turned his head and showed a flattering smile to Luo Er , whispered something.
"He said you could hire him as a bodyguard so no one in the city would dare to harass you."
Jeanna translated next to her.
"Reject it for me."
Rolle replied.
Jeanna spoke a few more words to the soldier in local dialect, but the soldier didn't show any dissatisfaction, but instead bowed respectfully and stepped aside.
"You may not believe it, but this is the second largest city in the entire Plenty Valley."
Jeanna played a guest role as a guide, and continued to introduce:
"It used to be prosperous and brilliant, and it is a beautiful place that everyone yearns for, but now, it is not as good as Tianshuang Town back then..."
Luo Er originally thought that Sweet Frost City was bad enough and backward, but at least it was relatively clean and tidy on the whole. There were normal shops on the street, there were schools providing education, and the law and order were not bad. Soldier.
Unexpectedly, this so-called second largest city is so unbearable.
The two then walked down another street and happened to witness a case of horse-riding and wounding.
The rider was a well-dressed fat man, and the one who was knocked down was a middle-aged woman carrying a sack, like a porter, lying on the ground, coughing blood, obviously injured internal organs.
Patrolling soldiers came over soon, but instead of arresting the murderer, they kicked the woman roughly, telling her to get out of the way and not occupy the road.
The woman shivered and got up, coughing violently while dragging the blood-stained sack on the ground.
The fat man rode a horse, and under the escort of the soldiers, he left proudly.
"The man is from the United Kingdom."
Jeanne spoke again.
Luo Er took a deep breath, calmed down, and asked:
"The Principality of Maud is also considered a part of the United Kingdom, right? Is this how they treat you?"
Jeanna shook her head with a wry smile, and explained:
"You should also know that the Plenty Valley has been a vassal of the foreign race alliance hundreds of years ago. When the foreign race was driven out of the mainland and retreated back to the North Sea Islands, it was ceded to the United Kingdom and the current Duchy of Mord was established. .”
"So we are just incidental trophies. In the eyes of the United Kingdom, we are no different from livestock or objects."
Luo Er couldn't help but sighed in a low voice, expressing deep sympathy for this.
Can only express sympathy.
If the geographical location here was not so sensitive, if the empire and the barbarians were not so strong, if the people in this world were more peace-loving, the fate of the Plenty Valley might not be so tragic.
It's a pity that this place is so unfortunate, as if cursed by an evil god.
The situation here is no longer a person, an organization can save it, I am afraid only a god can do it.
However, in this world, there are no good gods, only evil gods...
The two continued to stroll for a while, and suddenly heard a series of screams and cries from an alley next to them.
They hurried over and saw a middle-aged man with a rickety figure holding a little girl of a few years old, enduring punches and kicks from several soldiers, pleading incessantly.
The little girl trembled and cried, her voice a little hoarse.
Some people were watching, but no one came up to help or dissuade them. Everyone had that kind of insensitive expression on their faces, and there was even a schadenfreude sneer at the corner of their mouths.
"He can't pay his taxes, and these people are going to take his daughter away."
Jeanne translated in a low voice.
Luo Er clenched his fist slightly...
"Tell them to stop."
Rolle said quickly.
Jeanna took a step forward, and yelled a few words.
The soldiers looked back one after another, and when they saw Luo Er, although there was an expression of displeasure on their faces, they stopped.
Roll took out a 10 East banknote from his pocket and asked:
"Is it enough?"
Jeanne nodded.
He threw the banknotes in front of the soldiers.
The other party quickly picked it up, and the original unhappiness turned into a happy smile in an instant. He said some incomprehensible flattery words, nodded and bowed, and left the alley.
"You can't help them like this..."
Jeanna reminded in a low voice.
Roll shrugged and sighed:
"But that's all I can do."
After all, he still couldn't achieve true indifference and numbness, turning a blind eye to all the tragedies in front of him.
The guide Zaza ran over quickly, helped the poor father up, and hurried back to Luo Er.
"Mr. Luo Er, thank you for your kindness, but we'd better leave now, otherwise there will be bigger troubles soon."
Of course, Luo Er knew what the so-called bigger trouble was, so he nodded and left the alley quickly.
This place can't bear even a little bit of kindness.
And behind him, the father and daughter were kneeling on the ground, deeply worshiping his back.
