Lord: Harvest two talented teenagers at the beginning

Compared with other gathering places, Maishi Village is a little more peaceful and cleaner than towns, but not much better.

Following the village chief, he came to the cleanest house in the village, several houses made of wood, with a stable attached.

Before the two of them had settled down, children and adults gathered around the house. Most of them looked at the majestic red phosphorus horse and blue and purple horse curiously and talked in low voices.

"My Lord, since we entered the territory of the Delacier family, it has been a dilapidated scene. It seems that it is difficult to collect information."

In the wooden house, Kyle told the story while making tea with black tea leaves.

"It's really difficult to collect information. I even doubt whether the Drexil family still remembers the name Devon Hill."

Weilin frowned, not having much hope of finding out about Devon Hill's life experience.

"My lord, how about I call the village chief over and tap on his side? Seeing as he has lived for so long, I should know some clues." Kyle thought for a while and said to Verin.

"Okay, it would be best if we could get some useful information, but that's really not possible, we can only..."

At this point, Weilin's eyes became sharp. He really couldn't do it. He didn't mind the method of kidnapping, as long as it was done secretly, no one would know.

Not long after, Kyle invited the mayor of Maishi Village to the wooden house.

The old village chief glanced at the exquisite knight's sword placed on the wooden table and quickly lowered his head, not daring to look any further.

"Old village chief, do you have a name?"

Listening to the gentle voice, the old village chief calmed down and replied respectfully: "To my lord, the younger one's name is Tom. You can just call me Old Tom."

"Old Tom, my entourage and I are traveling and accidentally arrived here. Do you know any strange events or secret stories here?" Weilin took out a gold coin and twirled it on his fingertips, his eyes always staring at the old man. village.

"My little old man's eyesight is dim and his memory is bad. He can't remember these things clearly." Old Tom always lowered his head and replied respectfully.

"Click"

The clear and sharp voice made Old Tom tense up instantly.

"Quite alert."

"Sir, you are joking. The young man has served in the Lord's army for twenty years. This is just muscle memory." Old Tom grinned, his mouth full of yellow teeth exuding an unpleasant smell.

Weilin asked without changing his expression: "Looking at your age, you are at least seventy years old. You served in the army at the age of twenty and retired from the army at the age of forty. Thirty years have passed in between. You are still so vigilant. I am shocked. Surprised."

The next moment, a pressure pressed Old Tom to the ground.

Originally he didn't want to use such means, but this old guy didn't tell the truth.

"Tell me about it, I'm very interested in your story."

The next moment, Old Tom felt that the heavy pressure had eased a lot, and he barely supported his body with his limbs and knelt on the ground.

"Sir, I have a humble status and limited knowledge, so I can't answer your question at all." Old Tom answered in a very humble tone, lowering his head.

Judging from his many years of military experience, it was not difficult for the two of them to raze Maishi Village to the ground. They could only humbly pray that the other party would lose interest and let them leave.

"I'm very curious about what happened thirty years ago." Verin stared at Old Tom and said word by word.

Unfortunately, I didn't see any unnecessary expression on the other person's face. I don't know if he was really unclear or just pretending.

"I don't know what the adults are saying. Please forgive me."

The cabin instantly became quiet. After an unknown amount of time, Weilin said impatiently: "Forget it, you can go out."

"Yes, my lord."

Old Tom dragged his dying body out of the cabin and limped out of the house.

"Did you see anything?" Weilin looked at Kyle and asked.

"Kind of like a dead warrior."

"No, he is just a dead soldier, guarding some secret." Weilin came to the wooden door, looked at Old Tom leaving, and said in a deep voice, "I just wanted to inquire about the news, but I didn't expect to accidentally break into an incident."

"Lord, what should we do next?" Kyle stepped forward and asked in a low voice, the murderous look in his eyes undisguised.

"Go to the village and check to see if this old Tom has any descendants." Verin turned his head and whispered in Kyle's ear, "Remember, whether there is any blood relationship."

"I understand."

Kyle took the knight's sword and a money bag, and swaggered out of the wooden house and headed to the village.

"I'm curious, what is the secret that this dead soldier has been guarding for thirty years?"

Verin was just curious about the secret that Old Tom kept, and he had a hunch that it definitely had something to do with Devon Hill.

After all, old Tom, who left the military camp thirty years ago, and Devon Hill, who gave up his family name at the same time thirty years ago, need to explore whether there is a connection.

In the evening, Kyle returned to the cabin from Maishi Village and reported to Verin.

"My Lord, Tom, the elder of Maishi Village, has three sons and two daughters. One son and one daughter died in infancy. Now there are two sons and one daughter who are still alive. They are not very old."

"The eldest is only twenty-eight years old and has been sent to the army."

"The younger son is the captain of the village guard and the leader of Ding Zhuang in Maishi Village."

"The only daughter is twenty years old, but she is not married yet, which is a bit abnormal."

"When did those two children who died in infancy die, and if they survived, how old are they now?" Weilin asked.

Kyle thought about it for a while and answered: "The ones who died were the second son and the eldest daughter. I heard that they fell into the river and disappeared when they were six years old. Their bodies were not found."

"If still alive, the eldest daughter should be thirty years old and the second son should be twenty-five years old."

"No body?" Verin said, staring at Kyle.

"Yes." Kyle nodded and said, "There is another piece of news that I don't know whether it is true or not. I heard that thirty years ago, after the midwife in Maishi Village delivered Old Tom's eldest daughter, she left Maishi Village with her whole family the next day. .”

"It seems that the key is the eldest daughter without a body."

For a moment, Weilin had a bold guess in his mind, that it was civil strife.

However, it is too early to make any judgment now.

"Tomorrow morning, we will leave here and rush to Candela, the central city of the Dresir family. Things are getting more and more interesting."

"Yes."

……

Late at night, a red-headed crow flew out from the edge of Maishi Village and headed towards the mountains to the north.

Old Tom glanced at the night sky with nostalgia, then returned home with his hunched body.

Early the next morning, when Weilin and his wife were leaving, they suddenly heard that Old Tom had passed away last night. A group of villagers rushed to the village chief's house to bid farewell to the old village chief.

Regarding Old Tom's death, Verin had no unnecessary emotions and took Kyle towards Candela.
