Lord of Hyranza

Suldak gently pinched her soft earlobe, Selena's face turned red all of a sudden, and water rippled in her eyes.

"Carl told me that there are probably three ways: one is the financial allocation of the Grimm Empire. Of course, this part has not been activated since the outbreak of the plane war and the temple refused to send priests to participate in the war. The second is the God The land of the temple itself and the output of some industries. The third thing that I am most curious about is that the priests in the temple know some magical arts, such as group healing and big prophecy. The magic circle of engraving healing spells in the small fountain makes the water in the pool have healing power even if it does not last for a short time. A little property." Suldak explained.

He curiously asked: "Selena, as the envoy of the goddess Shilin, do you know this kind of spells? It's like this..."

As he said that, he retracted, and a faint golden glow appeared in the palm of his hand.

"...What is this?" Selina asked in surprise.

She tried to reach out to touch it, but found that it was like extremely pure light, and her hand could completely block those golden lights.

The two lay sideways on the haystack, chatting quietly face to face.

Suldak said: "The power of the holy light has a certain healing effect. As you can see, I am not the priest of the Temple of Liberty. After my body awakens the magic power, I have this ability. I And not a believer in the Statue of Liberty."

Hearing that Suldak emphasized that he was not a believer in the Statue of Liberty, Dailina smiled knowingly.

"Then what do you believe in?" Selina murmured.

Seeing her delicate appearance, Suldak was no longer in the mood to chat, and leaned his head towards... hugging her soft body.

If you want Suldak to talk about the first time you made out with Selena, what is the most memorable thing, Suldak may not be able to say anything, but if you want to talk about the most memorable thing, you can still Say something.

First of all, the awns from the haystack stick to the skin, which will be very irritating.

The second is that he has put Signa's phrase 'Mom, I'm hungry! 'Deeply imprinted in the bottom of my heart.

Because just when he was feeling a little bit worse, little Signa poked her head out from behind the wheat stack and said weakly to Selena, 'Mom, I'm hungry! '

And then... no more.

Suldak suddenly thought that things might be more troublesome if old Xila came to find him. He picked up the leather armor hanging on the tree and quickly left along the village.

Chapter 283

Selena sat on the small stool in front of the fireplace, propped her chin with one hand, and smiled foolishly at the flames in the fireplace.

This surprised Signa who was under the bed. She quietly lifted the sheet, poked her head out and looked into the room. There was no outsider in the room. It seemed that the danger had not been lifted. Selena was getting angry. Usually, he would not beat himself when outsiders were present, but when there was no one, it still depended on Selena's mood.

It seems that Selena is in a good mood now, but Signa still dare not take this risk.

She lowered her head and stroked her hungry stomach, thinking about the scene she saw behind the haystacks in the grain field at noon.

Signa sighed softly, it would be nice to just hold back.

While Signa was thinking wildly, a plate was pushed in from outside the bed, and there was a quarter of baked wheat cake on the plate. This baked wheat cake was baked by Selena the day before yesterday, and now it just needs to be taken out Baking on the firepit can become a rush, and there is a small piece of cassava and a small handful of chickpeas on the plate. After seeing the food on the plate, Signa, like a mouse, quickly He leaned over to the edge of the plate and smelled it, then bent down under the bed and started eating.

These chickpeas are planted on the pond stalks of the wheat field. As long as the chickpeas are harvested before the wheat is harvested, very few villagers in Wall Village grow chickpeas. Just know how to plant.

Selena was sitting on the wooden table, and in front of her was a plate similar to that of Signa, except that there was only a small piece of wheat cake on the plate. She picked up the browned cassava and took a bite, and there was a bite in her mouth immediately. I can feel the numbness of pepper, but this is not because of the strong taste of cassava, but because this thing itself has a little toxicity, and it does not affect anything except that it will make your tongue big when you speak too much.

Although the stone house is still empty, Selina feels that her heart is filled, and she has something to rely on in her future life. She no longer has to worry about the clerk in charge of population statistics breaking in suddenly that day and forcibly taking herself to another strange place. In the place where there is Signa and more than one mu of wheat fields, this is my home.

It's okay to suffer a little bit, and it will get better slowly.

The village has been changing subtly recently. During the period around the Harvest Festival in previous years, after the villagers harvested the wheat fields, they would go into the forest to pick up various mountain products for winter storage. No matter how much food they stored, they were worried that there would not be enough food to survive the cold. winter.

But now, the atmosphere of panic when autumn is coming has subsided a lot. The strong laborers in the village have dug back a large amount of sulfur mines. According to the old village chief, these sulfur mines can be sold for a lot of money, and these villagers digging One silver coin can be obtained. If the half month's salary is exchanged for fine wheat flour in Hailansa City, it will be enough for her and Signa to eat for four months.

Although she is a woman of Suldak, Dailina doesn't want to take any of his copper coins for nothing. She wants to discuss with the old village chief after the Harvest Festival and let her also go to the sulfur mine in Pustout Mountain to mine, no matter what , There needs to be someone in charge of cooking in the mining area too!

As long as you can do it for two weeks, you don't have to worry about winter storage anymore.

When Selena looked in the mirror, she found that there was a petal-like red mark on her chest. Her face flushed slightly, and she thought with some distress, how to cover up this red mark when she went out, otherwise she would be caught by the group of teeth in the village. The sharp-tongued women who have no bad intentions see it, and they don't know what it will be like.

The sun was no longer shining in the afternoon, and Selena returned to the valley, but she did not see Surdak again. According to the old people working in the valley, Surdak left Wall Village in a hurry at noon Yes, it seems that there is something rushing to leave.

Selena leaned her hands on the stack of wheat, feeling a little worried about gains and losses for a while.

……

A young man from Digo Village ran to Wall Village and brought a message from the old village chief to Suldak, saying that someone had found traces of a group of robbers in the Grand Canyon next to Digo Village. The people in the village hunted wild goats in the canyon, and they skinned and removed the goats by the river in the center of the canyon. After they were removed, they left a few pieces of tattered goat skin. Soft.

The village chiefs of the surrounding natural villages happened to hold a "Patrol Guard Council" in Digo Village to discuss how many people each village should send to patrol.

The whereabouts of the gang of robbers were immediately brought up to the village chiefs' meeting, and the village chiefs of each village immediately sent letters to the villages and began to gather manpower to drive the gang of robbers out of the Grand Canyon.

It was also for this reason that Dige Village sent people to send letters to the villages. When Suldak heard what the young people in Dige Village said, he immediately decided to go to Dige Village.

In the past few days, in order to deal with emergencies, he usually wears leather armor during the day. At this time, he does not need to wear cumbersome monster leather armor. The Roman sword is hung on his waist, and the iris shield is stored in the magic pouch. Go to the valley field and pull out your horse, and you can start immediately.

I didn't see Selena on the valley field, and Suldak looked at Selena's stone house from a distance. He wanted to tell Selena, but when he thought of Signa's cute eyes looking at him, Suldak shivered all over his body, as if he was standing in the howling wind wearing only boxer shorts.

Suldak decided not to say goodbye!

He led the horse to the entrance of the village, and after the young people in Dige village pointed out the direction, he galloped all the way to Dige village along a mountain road with only faint traces.

Digo Village is completely different from Wall Village. Digo Village is located in the middle of a higher part of Paglos Mountain. There is no mountain spring water here, so the whole mountain village does not look green at all. All the houses are made of limestone. It is made of bricks, with triangular wooden frames and thatch on the roof, but Digo Village looks much larger than Wall Village. There are about 200 households in the village, which is three times the number of Wall Village.

After walking into Digo Village, I found out... Although the vicinity of Digo Village is barren, this village occupies the entrance of the Grand Canyon, and there is a river in this canyon, and some crops are planted on the slopes on both sides of the canyon , the sunshine time in the canyon is not enough, so the wheat fields here still look lush.

Suldak rode his horse and stopped beside the canyon, overlooking the entire canyon.

"The wheat fields in our village are different from those in other villages. If you want to harvest wheat, you have to wait at least another [-] days."

A middle-aged man came out of a mill not far away, glanced at Suldak, saluted him and introduced him.

Then the middle-aged man asked again: "Is this Sir Knight also here to track down the bandit group?"

Surdak nodded.

Chapter 284 Grand Canyon

Suldak saw the old village chief in the largest stone house in Digo Village. A group of middle-aged and elderly people were pointing around the sand table on the table. However, they were not commanders in the army and could find robbers on the sand table. The general activity area of ​​​​the regiment is already remarkable.

Behind the group of village chiefs stood a row of young men and women, and these people were also attentively listening to the discussion of the village chiefs.

Seeing Suldak walking in wearing a monster leather armor, these young men and women looked over in surprise. The group of village chiefs also noticed the commotion behind them. Erdak was also a little surprised.

Among this group of village chiefs, besides Uncle Brett, Suldak also knew the village chief of Guta Village.

He is looking around at this stone house, which is more magnificent than any stone house in Wall Village. The whole room has a very high shelf, a pointed roof, and the tripod on the roof is very thick. The walls are painted with white lime, which makes people feel uncomfortable. The inside of the room looks very bright, except for a large stone paved floor, there is only a large round table in the room, which looks like a meeting place.

One of the old men with gray beard stood out from the crowd and asked Surdak respectfully:

"My lord knight, why are you here?"

The head of Guta Village recognized Suerdak at a glance, and hurried to the old man's ear, and whispered a few words.

The old man nodded slightly, and the village chief Bright explained: "Ahem, before I came, all the strong labor force in the village went into the mountains, and only Suldak was in the village to deal with emergencies. This time the search for the bandit group Let him join, he has just returned from participating in the Plane War, and he has very rich combat experience."

"Bright, your Wall village is really amazing. A knight came out of the village. With the care of this young knight, your village will gradually get better!" Some of the people in the crowd were very familiar with Uncle Brett. The village chiefs said one after another.

The first old man to stand up was the village head of Digo Village, and he was the only one who was most familiar with the Grand Canyon.

Seeing that the crowd gradually quieted down, he said: "Okay, let's continue talking about the Grand Canyon. I'm going to split up two teams. One team will enter the Grand Canyon from the front and search along the way. The other team will go around the canyon all the way. In the past, it took about 20 kilometers of mountain roads to find another entrance to the Grand Canyon, but the entrance there has gone deep into the Pagros Mountains, and there are many wild animals there, and wolves often haunt the canyon. The team on the other side must have rich hunting experience."

Some impatient village chiefs interjected below: "We'd better act quickly, if it's later, I'm afraid that group of robbers would have left the Grand Canyon long ago!"

"Well, let me make a long story short..." Village Chief Digo rubbed his forehead helplessly.

……

Surdak was assigned to the first group. There were 25 people in the group, all of whom were young men and women who had never joined the army. In addition to the 21 young men, there were also four young girls with hunting bows on their backs. Look at their clothes. From the hunter's attire, Suldak could tell that they had some hunting experience.

The first group has to enter the front of the Grand Canyon and walk southwest along a river in the canyon. It takes nearly a day to walk out of the canyon.

Suldak followed the first group into the canyon. Sure enough, as Uncle Brett said, there was no wind outside the canyon. As soon as he entered the Grand Canyon, he felt strong winds blowing in front of him. Flowing in the Grand Canyon, looking up to see the mill windmill protruding from the top of the cliff, four huge sail-like fan blades are slowly turning, which makes Suldak curious, what is the big windmill of the mill? How it was built on the cliffs of the canyon.

A group of people walked into the canyon against the strong wind. Surdak did not ride a horse this time.

He is not very familiar with the complex environment from here to the canyon. He is worried that the complex landform and terrain will cause unnecessary damage to the horseshoes. The remaining 25 people in the first group have no horses, so Surdak decided to follow the first group. Members hike into the Grand Canyon.

The first team included young people from Digo Village. They were very familiar with the Grand Canyon. After walking a few kilometers northwest along the river at the bottom of the canyon, they found a camp in front of a river beach. Some leftover fish bones and sheep bones were scattered on the river beach, and the goat skin that Village Chief Digo said was no longer here.

The bonfire ignited at the river beach camp was some chestnut tree branches. The bandits actually carried some firewood with them for making a fire. The camp here was discovered this morning, but it is already afternoon. Leaving, leaving the Grand Canyon directly, I am afraid that he should have left safely from the other end of the canyon by this time.

It is not yet known what the robbers' intentions are, and the patrol team is going to follow this clue to investigate, because this bandit group has already threatened Digo Village and some nearby natural villages.

Suldak knew in his heart that these bandits were probably still looking for Selina's whereabouts. Since they were capable of razing a noble manor to the ground, it shouldn't be too difficult to loot the nearby natural villages.

A young man following Suldak asked, "Master Knight, I heard that you participated in the war of planes?"

He looked very young and didn't understand how cruel war was.

Suldak nodded, and responded: "Yes! The Warsaw plane." He was looking at the rock walls on the left and right sides of the valley. The rock walls on both sides of this grand canyon are full of horizontal lines, like It is stacked on top of each other like pages of a book, which is very unique.

Unexpectedly, someone behind him was talking to him. Surdak turned his head and saw a young man in a leather vest and linen bloomers, holding a dung fork in his hand. Erdak behind.

Seeing Suldak's easy-going personality, the young man chased after him and asked, "Then what aspects do you think you need to pay attention to in the army?"

Looking at him again, he guessed that he was probably at the age of military service and had an inexplicable fear of the imperial army, so he had the courage to ask these questions.

Suldak felt that it was necessary to tell this inexperienced rookie some of the attempts in the barracks. Although he didn't expect him to remember it all at once, at least it could subtly make him somewhat correct about the army. cognition.

So Suldak said: "There are many things to pay attention to in the army..."

Suldak talked a lot, and the young man listened carefully.

In this way, I didn't know how far I had walked in the canyon, and suddenly I heard the guide of Digo Village walking in front shouting loudly: "Everyone, come and see, there are footprints here, those robbers must have left from the other side of the Grand Canyon. "

The villagers on the side also couldn't understand, and complained from the side: "I really don't understand, why do these robbers go to our backcountry to rob? Do they think that we villagers are very rich?"

Chapter 285

There is a small stream in this Grand Canyon, but after the rainy season, this small stream will become a river.

There is a low-lying lake in the middle of the Grand Canyon, where the water from the rivers and streams on both sides of the canyon will converge. It is said that there is a crack less than a foot wide at the edge of the lake. As long as the water level of the lake exceeds the crack, the overflowing river water The wine will all leak into the crack.

The lakes of this Grand Canyon are surrounded by lush herbs and clusters of low shrubs. Except for some pheasants and hares, there are almost no other wild animals in the valley.

The footprints on the river beach were very clear. A young hunter in the team squatted beside the footprints, observed carefully for a while, then raised his head and said to everyone:

"There are only five people's footprints, no horses, and they don't seem to be walking fast. I don't know what happened in their team. Someone seems to be injured!"

This young hunter named Abu is wearing a suede fur coat, but is shirtless. Not only is he carrying a hunting bow, but he also has a hatchet and a beast clip on his waist. His hair is messy, but his eyes are very bright. , even if it is a pinch of sand or a leaf, he likes to grab it and put it under his nose to smell it.

The young guide of Digo Village said: "You said they sneaked in from the Grand Canyon, what exactly are they trying to do?"

Abu said to the young guide: "I probably want to find out the exact location of your village. Didn't the village chief tell you that! This group of bandits has looted three noble manors in the south of Hailansa City."

The young guide looked innocent and said earnestly: "But there is nothing in our village except the wheat that is about to be harvested. Even for the wheat, we have to wait at least a month!"

"So these robbers are just exploring the way, not aggressively attacking!" Abu stood up, patted the sand on his hands, and said to the young guide and the young people around him: "The same is true when wolves hunt, first look around Prey, when they find the prey, they will not be eager to hunt, but will gather the wolves together, lay a big net, and slowly enclose the prey into the big net. They are a group of the most patient hunters, Always able to grasp the best hunting time."

The young guide immediately became flustered when he heard what Abu said, and asked quickly, "You mean these robbers will be like a pack of wolves? These people came to our village to scout?"

"Should be about the same!" Hunter Abu nodded, in fact, he thought so too.

A young man next to him asked, "Abu, have you ever hunted sand wolves?"

The hunter Abu shook his head in embarrassment, and said with regret: "I have only hunted ordinary wolves, and they are more cunning than I imagined."

"Wow……"

When everyone heard what Abu said, they all let out a soft cry of amazement. That Abu looked very simple, but said naively: "It's nothing, the sand wolves are the most powerful wolf pack around here, I would like to advise you all, When you meet a pack of sand wolves in the wild, you must remember to run as far as you can.”

Suldak walked behind these people, thinking: Fortunately, there are no young people from Wall Village in the team, otherwise the fact that Suldak hunted and killed the sand wolf will definitely be revealed at this time.

The young guide of Dige Village stood at the front of the team and said to everyone: "Let's chase after them quickly. If there are only a few robbers in this group, there are so many of us, we can consider catching them."

Standing beside the bloomers, Suldak couldn't help asking the bloomers, "Recently, has anyone disappeared in your village?"

"I've never heard of that..." The bloomers replied.

A young man next to him suddenly said: "Speaking of this, someone in our village really disappeared, probably the day before yesterday. Everyone thought he went to the forest at the mountain pass to pick up mountain goods, but he didn't take it seriously."

When the 25 young people in the first group walked to the central area of ​​the Grand Canyon, everyone finally saw the lake in the canyon. This area is extremely low-lying. After the stream flows here, it will meet several rivers with large drops. There are some beautiful waterfalls in these sections of the river, but now the amount of water flowing in these streams is slightly insufficient, so many places of these waterfalls are almost dry.

That Abu stopped the team again. He squatted next to a bush very vigilantly, pushed aside the grass here, and saw some messy footprints again.

"I have a feeling that they may be nearby..." the young hunter Abu said to everyone.

The guide who took the lead here said: "We spread out and searched nearby. Be careful and try not to disturb them."

……

The four robbers had to stop near the lake in the middle of the Grand Canyon, because the villager they captured from Digo Village had a spear pierced through his leg, and the sharp point of the spear pierced his left leg. The robbers didn't want to pull out the spear point. Not only did they not pull out the spear point, but they tied the villager tightly with hemp rope.

The villager had blood stains on the corner of his mouth, and it was obvious that he had been beaten severely. The villager's struggle was still very effective.

After walking for half a day, the robbers had just reached the middle of the Grand Canyon, and it was on the south bank of the lake, so the robbers had to stop again.
