Chapter 638 Snow Night
After learning all about the family and friends of Warrior Chief Gazef.

After Ge Jeff met with him, Zhou Ming didn't know what to do next.

To tell Gazef the truth and help him take revenge?
Or, like Defoe, choose to conceal the truth, fabricate a lie, say that his wife and daughter are completely missing or dead, and persuade him to leave this sad place and start a new life?
Of the two methods, Zhou Ming is slightly in favor of the latter.

Revenge is very simple, just take a knife and cut the enemy when you see it, if there are a few people who failed him, just kill a few people until the psychological balance is reached.

but……

Even if revenge is avenged, how much can these things alleviate the stimulation and blow to Gazef?

Can he be healed in the slightest for the damage he suffered?
So what if he killed all the traitors?

Zhou Ming believed that even if Gazef didn't go crazy or collapse on the spot the moment he learned the truth, this kind of injury would completely change his entire appearance.

He may change drastically, abandon his original kindness and virtue, and degenerate from an angel to a devil.

It is possible to belittle life, to go to extremes.

In short, anything is possible.

And the possibility of going bad is very high.

The Gazef at that time would not be the Gazef now at all.

and so……

Zhou Ming didn't want him to suffer that kind of blow, to prevent him from getting that kind of harm... use deception to maintain his current appearance.

but……

The development of things will not go as Zhou Ming imagined.

The more he wants to hide the truth, the easier it is for others to see the loopholes.

……

half a month later.

Through the Griffin mount of the Continental Chamber of Commerce, Gazef and the warrior Fitz arrived in Langby City.

Gazef climbed off the back of the griffin, and saw Zhou Ming waiting under the landing platform...the two sides successfully rendezvoused.

After finding a hotel and settling down, Gazef pulled Defoe to ask the two questions he was most concerned about after some nonsensical chatting: "Defoe, have you found out about my wife?"

"How are my daughters Sophia and Nicola, have you found them?"

Gazef had a look of anxiety on his face. Nearly two years had passed. Although he had been pretending to be calm, once he returned to the Kingdom of Kadorn, his heart was all on his favorite family members.

"Uh……"

Defoe's face became hesitant, and he couldn't speak.

"What's the matter, you know what to say quickly." Gazef urged.

"Captain, it's not that I don't want to tell you. I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it. Your wife and two daughters... all died unfortunately."

Defoe burst into tears and knelt down in front of him: "I'm sorry, Captain, I want to tell you good news about them. I hope that I can protect them in time when they are in danger. As long as you The family can be reunited, Defoe and I don't regret paying this life."

"But, I came late, I came too late, Madam and Miss, they have been dead for a long time!"

Boom~
The news was like a bolt from the blue, and Gazef's body trembled violently.

He shook his head again and again: "How is this possible, how is this possible? Before the war started, I wrote a letter to Earl Jacobby asking him to help take care of my family. He also swore to take care of Natia and the others, even if Those nobles wanted to take his life... Did Jacobi not keep his promise? My wife and daughter just died like that?"

He couldn't believe it.

Hearing his soliloquies, Zhou Ming on the side shook his head.

By this time, Gazef hadn't found any problem?
Is his IQ too low?Those who deceived him were too high-ranked and beat him directly.

Reminiscent of the real world and the messy cheating incidents of entertainment stars, Zhou Ming had to admit a fact: honest people are more likely to suffer.

Especially honest people who are single-minded, value their families, and give wholeheartedly, are often greened miserably.

Is Gazef considered an honest person?
Zhou Ming shook his head.

Gazef is not an honest person who tends to be "derogatory", he is just relatively "pure".

Pure to his love for his wife, his trust in his friends, without any impurities, without a trace of doubt.

He believes that there is kindness, love and trust in this world, because he himself acts in accordance with these principles, and the sincerity he gives will definitely be exchanged for sincerity.

but……

He underestimated the baseness of human nature, the ugliness of morality and the lower limit of conscience.

In the eyes of extremely selfish people, he is an idiot and a wimp.

Wanting to get their "sincerity" is undoubtedly a dream.

And the biggest mistake Gazef made was that he viewed this filthy world too beautifully.

Defoe explained: "Madame committed suicide. After she heard that you were defeated and disappeared, the warrior commander, she didn't eat or drink for seven days and seven nights, and shed tears every day. In the end, she defended your heroic honor and avoided being taken over by her." Defiled by nobles, she drank poisoned wine and died."

"Sophia and Nicola were taken away by your most loyal servant, Buck, but this year there was a severe famine in the kingdom, and many people had no food to eat. The loyal Buck starved to death, and Sophie, who had no one to take care of her, Ya and Nicola also starved to death in the famine...the bodies were never found."

"Warrior Captain, it's useless to blame me, I failed to protect them!"

As he spoke, the soldier Defoe burst into tears again.

Gazef lowered his head.

The body seemed to have lost a pillar, becoming limp and crumbling.

He even muttered in his mouth: "How is it possible? How is it possible? Before going out, I told you that I want you to wait for me at home, you..."

Two lines of tears fell from the corners of Gazef's eyes. This man who had never cried a few times in his life looked like a helpless sad child at this moment.

Zhou Ming stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder twice, and sighed: "I can't accept these news, but people can't be resurrected after death... let's be sad."

Gazef didn't speak, he found a chair with a reclining back, and sat down weakly.

……

the next day.

Seeing that Ge Jeff was in a trance and listless, Zhou Ming said to him: "Come with me to the Yadude Kingdom, follow me from now on, and I will guarantee your prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life."

Gazef nodded weakly.

He asked again: "Excuse me, where is the cemetery of my wife and daughter, I want to see them for the last time."

"it is good."

Yesterday Zhou Ming told him: Defoe had reburied his wife's bones, and his two daughters had also set up burials... just near Gazef's own castle.

This morning, a group of people went to Gazef's house - a dilapidated low castle, and sacrificed to his wife and daughter.

Standing in front of three tombstones, one big, two small, and kneeling in silence to crying bitterly, Gazef didn't see anything wrong... Zhou Ming spent a lot of effort in the past half month, and even spent money to buy a nearby A group of villagers unintentionally "discussed" when they were asked to "pass by".

The topics were nothing more than how staunch Mrs. Natia was, how miserable Mr. Gazef was, how sympathetic the experience of their family was, and so on.

In short, Zhou Ming set up this game, in his personal opinion, there is nothing wrong with it.

As long as Gazef doesn't investigate further and chooses to leave this sad land, the people and things in this land will not cause him any harm.

After finishing the sacrifice and sweeping, he returned to the hotel in the afternoon. Gazef also nodded in agreement. He will board the griffin mount early tomorrow morning and return to the Yadude Kingdom.

However, that night, when the sky began to snow heavily, Zhou Ming, who was a little restless, knocked on the door of Gazef's room.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

He knocked several times, but no one responded.

Feeling bad, Zhou Ming quickly broke down the door and rushed in.

Immediately dumbfounded.

People are gone.

……

To the west of Langby City, there is a beautiful lake.

Because the lake looks like a full moon, it is called "Moon Lake".

On the edge of the beautiful Moon Lake, a beautiful castle was built, named "Moon Lake Castle".

This is the castle where Earl Jacoby lives, together with the Moon Lake and the land ten miles around the castle, all belong to his fiefdom.

Among the aristocratic circles of the Cadorn Kingdom, Earl Jacoby's status and influence can be ranked among the top ten.

He has outstanding abilities, and recently he has been reused by the king and promoted to deputy minister of the court. There are also many supporters from the nobles.

As a rising star, seeing the beautiful woman standing in front of the window watching the snow, and seeing a pair of lovely sleeping daughters on the bed, Earl Jacobby, who just finished his official duties, smiled happily and felt that this life enough.

He got up and stretched his waist, and suddenly found that his wife, who was looking at Feixue outside the window, looked sad and gloomy. Jacobby felt a little strange.

Stepping forward to wrap his arms around his wife and holding her in his arms, Jacob asked with concern: "What's the matter, my love, don't you seem very happy?"

Natia shook her head, and two tears fell: "Honey, I feel very worried recently, and I can't sleep."

"what are you worried about?"

"I... I'm worried that Gazef will come back."

"Gazef?"

Jacoby smiled and shook his head: "He won't come back, he is probably dead, even if he is not dead, he is still a useless person."

"But... I'm still scared, and I feel sorry for him."

Her husband's comfort was useless, and Natia still looked worried.

"We didn't feel sorry for him!"

Jacobi emphasized: "He can't give you the love you want, I can give it! He is physically disabled, can't have a child, can't let you be a mother, I can! Only I can! He is a waste, A trash everyone hates!"

"Our two babies have called him daddy for several years!"

"It's disgusting to think about!"

"My love, don't be sad and blame yourself anymore, we are not wrong, there is nothing wrong, the fault is that that waste got the treasure that should not belong to him."

"Now, this treasure has the most correct home...that is me!"

Jacobi held Natia's perfect face and kissed it affectionately.

He took off his coat... He was ready to "comfort" his wife.

"what!!"

There was a roar in my ear!
The two were startled, and turned to look at the door of the room.

Immediately froze.

A bald man with clenched fists, facial muscles twitching violently, eyes wide open and red, with a broken right arm, stood at the door at some point.

Judging from the strange but familiar face, this person has actually disappeared for almost two years... Gazef.
