Good-looking, not allowed to farm

(One)

The transaction that was originally smooth and smooth suddenly changed.

It was too late to blink, and the situation had taken a turn for the worse.

Everyone still has no idea what exactly happened?

The battle started quickly.

"Ah! Hell, you don't want that viscount's life?"

"Bastard, how dare you sneak attack!"

"Damn it, turn around and chop up that son of a bitch nobleman!"

"Stop, all stop, what the hell is going on?"

The guards obeyed the orders and started the attack first.

The thieves were swearing and yelling, while rushing to meet the enemy.

Be mentally prepared...

In other words, Jamie, who directly caused the chaos in front of him, was running wildly.

It's a dangerous situation.

Because he was going to get the ransom, he stood in the front and was the first to be attacked.

But he had already taken precautions, and before the others could react, he had already started running with his skirt in his hands.

Later, when someone chased him, he cleverly avoided several waves of attacks. Then, he began to call for reinforcements, held up the box full of ransom money, and shouted at the thieves while running: "They want the money!" Take it back, protect me, protect me, come and protect me."

So, "What, take the money back?" "Don't even think about it!" "Who dares to touch my money!"

The thieves were so angry that they abandoned the enemies who were fighting, turned around and rushed over brandishing their weapons, helping Jamie block all the pursuers behind him.

Cyclopes always felt something was wrong.

But in such a chaotic situation, he couldn't think about it at all, so he roared loudly and joined the battle.

Jamie took this opportunity, left everyone behind, and ran forward without looking back.

And because the thieves deliberately chose a familiar place not far from their temporary den when choosing the place to trade the ransom for insurance.

And the topography around this place was observed clearly by Jamie when he made an excuse to go out for a stroll.

So, he turned and turned into an alley, and then began to run along the alley very skillfully.

Turn left, turn right, climb walls, jump up trees, jump down again...

At that time, the sun was setting and the sky was gradually darkening.

Jamie couldn't see the way clearly anymore, so he ran forward desperately based on feeling, without stopping a step.

One of his shoes was lost; a corner of the skirt was accidentally hung on a branch, and he tore it apart;

There were also some thorns and stones that scratched his skin. Although none of them were serious injuries, each of them was painful; in the end, the wig was also caught by something, so he simply took it off and threw it away...

His legs gradually became heavy as if filled with lead;

His lungs were slowly burning as if they were on fire.

He still staggered forward and kept running...

However, the pursuers behind him still stuck to him.

The people who were chasing at first were still running on two legs, and then someone came up on horseback. They chased and shouted: "Catch that woman, she took the money!" Her, don't let her run away!" "You fools! The horse can't get through, go over there..." "Two people, go to the front, go around here, and take a shortcut to block her."

Then Jamie knew that the situation was critical, and they could not be allowed to continue chasing like this, and they had to get rid of the pursuers before exhaustion.

He tried his best to think of a way, and his head was about to explode. Then, he stopped running towards the place with few people, but struggled towards the street with the most traffic, which is the one mentioned before, crowded The streets full of beggars, gangs of thieves, low-class whores, usurers, and most of the poor waifs run.

When he reached this street, he dared to stop for a while, bent over, panted and supported his knees, and slowed down for a few seconds.

Then, he raised his head and looked around, and found that the pursuers who had been chasing behind him were now surrounded by four corners. Surrounded up step by step.

Jamie laughed, eyes twinkling extremely brightly.

He stood up straight, and in front of these pursuers, he calmly opened the box full of ransom money, grabbed handfuls of money from it, and threw them into the sky suddenly: "Pick up the money!" ——!”

The whole street stood still for a moment, as if the pause button had been pressed.

Hearing the word money, everyone couldn't help but look over.

then……

Cheers, shouts, cursing, running, crowding, bumping, pushing...

Countless sounds and movements all happening at the same time!

The whole street came to life in an instant.

Everyone frantically rushed towards the direction where the money fell.

The few people who planned to surround Jamie were dumbfounded.

Before they could react to this, they were already overwhelmed by the turbulent crowd, and within a short while, they couldn't even find a single person.

Jamie ran again.

But this time, his steps were much lighter.

At this time, the sky was almost completely dark.

Not far away, a light flickered faintly.

The crowd on the street still did not disperse.

Under the charm of money, they may party all night.

Jamie still didn't relax.

But while he was running, he was laughing, waving his arms, jumping and screaming, happy and insane. Money, and all unpleasant shadows...all left behind!

________________________

Helena is a blonde.

But she is not lively at all, on the contrary, there is always a tired feeling on her face.

In fact, no wonder so.

It's just that her experience was too rough.

Both of her parents died since she was a child, and she married someone casually when she was about ten, four or five years old.

First, she lived a peaceful life for two or three years in a mediocre way, but in the end, a sudden accident made her lose her husband, leaving only a three-year-old son.

In order to support her son, she had no choice but to go out to work.At first, she worked as a low-level female worker in a small workshop. She got up on time to work every gray morning light, and then worked non-stop until midnight before she could rest. She was exhausted and couldn't save money.

Then, the son fell ill.

High medical expenses weighed on her again.

When they were about to go all out and go to prostitution on the street, a kind theater troupe owner generously donated his money.

But unfortunately...

Despite some medical treatment, her son died.

What can be done has been done, and the responsibility that can be done has been done.

But none of the people around him could stay.

Helena couldn't help thinking pessimistically: "There will never be any beautiful things in my world."

She didn't know what else to do next, and she didn't know where to go.

Finally, out of gratitude, she joined the small troupe of the kind boss and became an actress.

People in this day and age look down on actors on stage.

It was generally believed that only dissolute women would enjoy such publicity.And it is often said that the only difference between these actresses and whores is that whores put a price tag on them, and you get what you pay for; but their prices are always floating, and from time to time they have to talk about their feelings with people hypocritically.

Many women can't take these insults.

Therefore, when they come to the stage, they often show two kinds of behaviors: either they are broken and smashed, and they simply treat themselves as prostitutes, and let go too much; can't let go.

But Helena, who has experienced too many hardships, no longer cares.

She sometimes thinks: "If my son can be brought back to life, whether it's an actor or a bitch, I don't really care."

Out of this frank attitude.

The roles she plays on stage always cry when she should cry, and laugh when she should laugh, neither exaggerating to grandstanding, nor making any naked stunts to deceive a bunch of swingers.

From the beginning to the end, how the character should behave, she behaves seriously.

Therefore, it is very touching, and people often feel in a trance that the story interpreted is true, and this character should also exist in reality.

So, she became popular locally.

In addition, that apparently small and dilapidated local theater troupe miraculously gained some fame.

The owner of the troupe never expected that such a huge reward could be exchanged for a random helping hand.

He was so happy from ear to ear every day, and was also aroused with great ambitions, decided to take Helena, who had become a pillar of the troupe, to the royal city together to earn a good amount of money from the nobles.

Helena is actually not very optimistic about this trip to the royal city.

In her mind, Wangcheng is the kind where a viscount can be hit by just throwing a brick down. Otherwise, at least... probably a place where a baron came out, and she may not appreciate such a small place like them troupe performances.

But the boss is determined to make a living, so how can the employees say frustrated words?

Helena had no choice but to still think nonchalantly: "If you can't get along anymore, it's okay to come back at worst."

So, they hit the road.

Due to the slow length of the journey, every time they traveled a certain distance, their convoy had to stop at the carriages and horses along the way.

Let the guys from the carriage and horse shop repair the carriage, and then check whether the horseshoes of the horses are damaged to the extent that they should be repaired. Then, some horses that are sick or too tired will be replaced...

On this day, the theater troupe stopped in a car and horse dealership as usual, quietly waiting for the rest to finish before continuing on the road.

At this time, a guy from a car and horse dealer suddenly ran over.

He politely asked the owner of the troupe: Can you accept a guest who is traveling alone?

Then he explained that this guest was also going to Wangcheng, but he was worried that it would be unsafe to be alone on the road, so he wanted to take a ride and he could pay.

The kind troupe owner didn't think too much about it, and agreed without hesitation.

He also enthusiastically said: "By the way, no money required."

After Helena knew this, she was a little worried.

Because these days, the world has become chaotic.

A guest on the road alone is not to be feared.

The frightening thing is that this guest on the road alone is very likely to be a spy sent by the robbers. He has mixed into the convoy and is responsible for spying on the reality of the convoy. In the future, he will cooperate with the robbers...

Thinking of this, Helena worriedly looked out through the window of the carriage.

But it has to be said that most people are visual animals.

With just one glance, she was half relieved and thought to herself: "It's so good to see someone who is almost blessed by nature, no matter what they do, they must have a better future than being a robber, right?"

(two)

Probably because of this beauty, the owner of the troupe is also more enthusiastic than before.

He took the guest to chat and chatted, and introduced Helena to him on his own initiative.

There are many rules for women in this world.

But places like theater troupes are strangely less particular.

So, after the boss introduced the two of them, he asked Helena to help entertain the guests, and at the same time asked the guests to chat with Helena to relieve boredom.

Then, he himself left the two of them behind and ran out to work again.

guest……

That's Jamie.

In the recent period, he has been hanging out with bad guys. When he opens his eyes every day, he sees extremely vicious and malicious faces; all he hears is dirty words; It's the smell of alcohol and sweat from a group of men... almost assimilated.

Today, I have suddenly returned to a relatively peaceful society, but I have not yet adapted to it.

As a result, he ran into such an enthusiastic person head-on, and was stunned for a while, not knowing how to deal with it.

In the end, he stayed there for a few seconds before he came back to his senses and smiled at Mrs. Helena in the carriage to show his friendliness.

But at the same time, he was still worried in his heart, worried that his dumb performance would be too disrespectful and would leave a bad impression on others.

To Lady Helena, however, the smile was far from being impolite.

On the contrary, she is very pleasing to the eye.

At this point, Jamie finally changed back into comfortable men's clothes.

Due to the rush of time, the size does not fit very well, but after all, it is a new dress bought from a tailor.In addition, there are newly bought trousers and boots. In short, such a dress, from head to toe, looks brand new, clean and energetic. At first glance, it is rare to be full of vitality, which is very attractive.

Moreover, in Helena's eyes...

Apart from the eye-catching appearance of the person in front of him, the most lovable thing may be the smile on his face.

(Finally managed to escape!)

He is so happy, laughing so happily, there is an uncontrollable smile in his eyes, and the whole body is filled with the joy of spring breeze and joy.

So much so that when others just looked at him so simply, their mood would improve unconsciously, and the corners of their lips curled up slightly unknowingly.

Helena therefore jokingly asked: "Where are you from? Where are you going, happy boy?"

Jamie took off his hat politely, saluted her, and then replied with a smile: "I'm really sorry, I don't really want to mention where I came from, because that place is so bad that I just want to forget it for the rest of my life." , don’t think about it any more. As for the destination, it’s the same as you, madam, I’m going to the royal city..."

Madam Helena sympathetically did not ask any further questions.

She continued along the topic: "Wangcheng is indeed a good place, I heard it is very prosperous there."

"Well, the capital of a country shouldn't be too disappointing."

Jamie couldn't help but said with a little yearning: "I want to find a stable job there, and find a place to live. It would be even better if the place to live has a yard attached to it. The area doesn't need to be particularly large, but It allows me to plant some favorite plants in the yard... from now on, I can settle down and live in peace."

Lady Helena was amazed at the simplicity of his dreams.

She couldn't help blurting out: "At your age, don't you want to make contributions?"

Jamie scratched his head embarrassingly, and couldn't help laughing at himself: "Probably because I'm timid."

He said with some embarrassment: "Compared to building a career that is complicated and requires taking risks, I still prefer a peaceful life with no waves. However, after hearing this, you probably think I am useless?"

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Helena gave a very high evaluation of this: "No, no, I don't think so. In fact, compared to those who focus on vanity fair, your thoughts are the rarest , and the most realistic."

"Besides, who stipulates that people who want to live a good life are useless people?"

"I think that if you don't even have a good life for yourself, those who still want to pursue this place and that place all day long, I'm afraid they have high vision and low power. In the end, most of them are empty-handed and unable to grasp anything."

Jamie blushed from her praise, and didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, a loud commotion outside saved him.

At this time, the boss of the troupe came over with a complicated expression.

He said to them, "Hey, a group of robbers have been caught, and they will be hanged directly today."

Mrs. Helena couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Just hanging? Don't you go to jail?"

The owner of the troupe explained: "I heard that he was originally a fugitive with several lives in his hands. After he fled all the way here, he continued to commit crimes arrogantly."

"...It wasn't until yesterday, when they kidnapped and blackmailed a distinguished viscount, that they were finally caught. The details are unclear... It is said that they were arrested by the viscount's servants and the police in the town. Captured."

"This group of people is too vicious. The judge is worried that they will escape from prison again. So, to be on the safe side, they are all hanged. At noon today..."

"Here...the public execution was carried out in the square in the center of the town over there. Right now, the townspeople are being clamored outside to watch the execution."

Speaking of this, the owner of the troupe paused for a while, and then said again: "The carriage pulling the props behind us, the broken wheel will not be repaired in a while, and we have to wait a little longer before we can start. So, I just told the rest of the group that there is time, and if anyone wants to watch the execution, everyone can go together and join in the fun. By the way, Helena, are you going?"

Helena couldn't help but frowned and said, "I'm afraid of having nightmares."

She asked in a particularly puzzling way: "I don't understand, what's so interesting about killing people, and let everyone watch it."

"Killing is nothing to watch." Jamie nodded in agreement.

But he changed his voice and said again: "Killing the robbers should still have some meaning. This is to warn other villains and tell them that if they commit the crime again, they will end up like this."

Helena thought for a while: "I still feel cruel."

Then, she retreated into the carriage again, and only said: "Gentlemen, if you want to see it, go and see it. I won't go anyway."

So, Jamie said goodbye to her briefly, turned around and followed the troupe owner, and went to watch the execution together.

That scene was extremely spectacular.

Because there were more than a dozen robbers who were arrested, standing side by side in a long row.

Each of them had their hands tied and were roughly pushed onto the scaffold by the police.

Then, nooses were put around their necks one by one.

The crowd of onlookers knew they were all robbers.

There was no extra pity. Seeing this, they all cheered and shouted: "Kill them! Kill them!"

Jamie noticed that Kukrops was still grinning.

A god attendant who served the gods stepped up to the execution platform and asked if anyone needed to repent at the end of his life.

Seeing this, the crowd fell silent.

They are eager to see how these robbers will behave, crying bitterly?in silence?Or begging for mercy?

However, Cyclopes said with a smile: "I don't have any regrets, I'm just very happy to see so many people come to see me on the road, if I really die so silently and alone, but It’s kind of boring.”

The person in charge of the execution waved the god to wait on him.

He knew that criminals like Cyclopes were the most stubborn and unrepentant.

Kukrops is unimpressed.

As always, he tilted his head slightly, looking at the world with a smile in his perfect eye.

Until the executioner orders.

The executioner removed the wooden plank he was stepping on, and before he was completely suspended...

He also laughed loudly and roared with great joy: "Kill people! Set fire! Fuck the world!"

Then, he was hung up.

His face was distorted and ferocious, his tongue was sticking out, and he looked vicious even to death.

Everyone was taken aback.

The owner of the troupe could not help stroking his chest, feeling the sudden intensified heartbeat, and sighed in awe: "Ah, ah, he is a good guy."

Jamie's face was pale, and his eyes were directly on the ugly face of Cyclopes.

He felt sad for a moment, but soon, his heart hardened again, and he muttered to himself: "It's just a lawless lunatic, what kind of hero can he be called?!"

After waiting for a while...

All the thieves struggled and died.

So far, the execution is over.

The crowd watching the excitement gradually dispersed.

but suddenly,

There was a rush of hooves.

A group of people arrived in a hurry.

Someone else shouted anxiously: "Don't kill now! Don't kill now!"

But it's too late.

Levin, the former financial officer, looked at the whole row of robbers whose corpses were cold, and threw his hat to the ground in anger.

He still broods over the prison fire.

Everyone's saying is 'accidentally caught fire, and Kukrops took the opportunity to lead people out of prison'.

But Levin always felt that there was something hidden in it, and wanted to investigate it.

But the prison was burned to ruins, and there was no way to investigate.

Not long ago, he heard that there was such a group of robbers, who seemed to be very similar to the one-eyed robbers in the prison, so he followed the trail...

Unfortunately, it was one step too late!

Jamie was not afraid of the execution, but was taken aback by the sudden appearance of this man

He hurriedly lowered the brim of his hat to cover it up, and slowly backed away.

Fortunately, Levine paid no attention to the crowd.

He was directing people to dismantle the corpses one after another, trying to check if there were any survivors...

So, Jamie followed the owner of the troupe and returned to the car dealership smoothly.

At this time, the carriages were all rested.

The troupe of the troupe was finally able to set off and continued towards Wangcheng.

And because Helena is very curious about him.

Moreover, it is undoubtedly a happy thing to have a good-looking male companion during the slow journey.

So, she invited Jamie and took a carriage together.

After getting into the carriage, the careless lady suddenly thought of a question. She couldn't help but patted her head with her hands, and asked with a smile: "Oh, look at me confused! I forgot to ask, what do you call you? You can't always Call you happy boy?"

Jamie smiled, pretending to be shy.

"Please call me Louis." He bowed slightly, made a simple self-introduction, and then added: "Louis Beckett is willing to serve you."
