The Blackening Journey of the Abandoned Knight

Ada is the gravekeeper in the village.

Tomb keeper is not a job that people like. No normal person wants to deal with white bones or rotting corpses. Ada is also such a normal person. Small ordinary people.

But things in the world don't mean that if you don't want to do it, you won't do it for you. Ida is a well-known coward, and even more so, a well-known orphan. His father, old Ada, who is no longer alive, He is a city defense soldier, which was originally an honorable profession, and the salary is not bad. The life of the father and son is quite good, but one day the master of the city has a whim and wants to go to the mountain to suppress the bandits.

The city lord, who is as fat as a pig and as stupid as a pig, can't even hold the lightest rapier, why do you think he is so idle looking for something to do?

As a result, the city lord was of course caught by the vicious bandits, and he was almost cooked as white meat. However, he was the lord of the city, and returned to the city safely after paying a large sum of money.

But a thousand city guards did not come back with the city lord.

This was five years ago, and Ada was only five years old five years ago, and even now, Ada is only a ten-year-old child.

As for Ada's mother, she returned to the North Pole because of dystocia when she gave birth to him. That's good, at least she doesn't have to endure the desolate life after the family suddenly lost the pillar, Ada lit the lantern, thinking optimistically.

The charred wick emitted a choking white smoke after it was lit, and the smell was particularly pungent. The small flame was only the size of a soybean, enough to illuminate this small wooden house.

After lighting up, Ada's life looks even more miserable. The situation in the wooden house is that the walls are full of insults, pitted wormholes, low-quality wood and rotten smell, and the only piece of furniture is only half left A pottery bowl with one corner missing.The lantern in Ada's hand is the most expensive item in the room.

But this wind lamp can't be counted as his thing. The wind lamp is the standard equipment for grave guards to watch at night.

The young Ada sighed like a dying old man, looked at the lantern with distaste, and carried it out the door.

Today's night patrol is about to start again.

The little boy left the cabin he lived in with trepidation, and took his first steps in the cold night.

Today's night patrol will go as smoothly as yesterday, right?Father will protect him from evil devils and ghosts?The village chief said that there must be some weird noises in the cemetery recently made up to deceive him, right?He he he he he he must, must be able to live safely until tomorrow, right?

He reached out and pulled out a string from under his collar, and a pendant hung from the bottom of the string.

It is a North Pole cross star carved from wood. Although the wood is good, the carving process is a bit rough. The raised center point of the cross star is even skewed by half a centimeter, which looks nondescript.

This was carved by old Ada himself. It was because of his poor craftsmanship that the pendant was not snatched by the bullies in the village.

The boy clasped his palms together and recited silently in his heart.

Lord of the North Pole, please protect me.

He bypassed another cross and walked deep into the cemetery.

The crosses on both sides of the path changed and elongated their own shadows in the firelight, as if the devil in hell was showing his teeth and claws. The sharp teeth in the big cracked mouth reflected the cold light. As before, he beat out the wind lamp in his hand as if it were a stone—the three cracks on the transparent wall of the wind lamp proved that the wind lamp would be scrapped if it was used in violation of the regulations—forcibly holding back the wailing at the top of his throat.

The boy gripped the cross star pendant so tightly that he didn't even feel the pain when the tip pierced the skin of his palm.

He said silently in his heart: I didn't see anything, I didn't see anything, hehe, I really didn't see anything.

Today's moonlight is really bright, even without a lantern, the ground can be seen clearly.

Tomorrow, I will go to the back mountain to see if I can catch any small beasts. Even if I don't get any meat, I can still look for wild vegetables and fruits...

The boy's purpose was successful, and he managed to divert his attention from his surroundings to his hunger.

I'm so hungry... I really want to eat, gray noodles, flatbread, potatoes, lentils... I'm so hungry.

Ada stretched out her hand to press her stomach, feeling the entanglement and wriggling of the organ called the stomach because it was too hollow, her face turned black.

Then the distracted boy felt like he had kicked something.

He lowered his head, and saw a pale and colorless face under his feet, beautifully indistinguishable from gender, with a strange charm that did not resemble human beings, and a pair of gray eyes on the face stared at him wide open.

In the early hours of the morning, there was another tragic scream from today's village cemetery without exception.

"Damn it-"

Why?Why do you say again?

***

When Lu woke up, it was just before dawn.

The faint morning light passed through the wooden walls and hit his eyelids just in time, and it was this light that woke him up.

The knight directed his stiff body to move a little bit, and found himself lying in a wooden house, with only half of his body on a plank—because the half of the plank was not long enough, his lower body was directly attached to the ground without doubt— —The knight opened his eyes, rolled his eyeballs around, and the first thing he saw was the trembling boy squatting in the corner.

Ada, who didn't even know why she brought a corpse back, looked at the dead man who had no heartbeat or breathing staring at him, and was about to cry.

Seeing this situation, he coughed lightly, and coughed up black blood clots from his trachea. He scanned his whole body up and down with his eyes to confirm that he did not leave any organs or tissues when passing through the space and crystal wall, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

At least, there is nothing wrong with the time travel process.

He returned to his original world.

Then he looked at the little boy again.

Feeling his appraising gaze, the boy trembled even more.

Two people—a living person and a dead person—faced each other in this cabin of less than five square meters, and the atmosphere was awkward. The boy who didn't realize it until a few minutes later knelt down and kowtowed while crying Said: "Mighty Lord Undead, please don't eat me, my meat really doesn't taste good!"

"……"road.

Although I know that the temple's promotion of the undead is a bit exaggerated, but this appearance is too much, cannibalism or something, the undead don't need to eat, okay?

Mild obsessive-compulsive disorder* Lu's first thought was to teach the boy a good lesson, telling him the difference between the undead and the living and why the undead are evil.

It took him a few seconds to recall the point.

"Hey," Ada asked in a cold tone when he heard the beautiful male corpse that he carried home in a moment of heat, "what is this place?"

"This is Hongguo Village in the north of Heishi City in Nankang Province..." Ada said hesitantly, raised her head and glanced at the handsome man who had no heartbeat and should be dead, her heart wavered uncontrollably.

It turns out... are all undead so good-looking?

Then he heard the undead ask another question, "So, how old is Emperor Yuan now?"

"Well, this year is 340 years."

Lu lowered his eyes in thought.

Has it been two years?

"What happened to the battle on Secia's defense line two years ago?" He asked his second concern.

"Secia's line of defense?" The boy's eyes widened, apparently he did not expect him to ask such a question, "It is said that there was a master knight collaborating with the enemy, so the whole line was defeated... Let's see."

Hey hey hey the ground is going to freeze!Ada, who hadn't finished speaking, looked at the hoarfrost that suddenly spread on the ground in horror.

Seeing the boy's terrified eyes, he realized that the temperature had dropped sharply due to his anger. The knight, who was not yet very good at it, tried to control it, but found that the area covered by frost became larger instead.

The futile knight could only stop trying, forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked the question he was most concerned about.

"So, do you know how His Royal Highness is doing now?"

***

The first heir to the empire, the eldest son of the empress, His Royal Highness the crown prince who was originally wise and brave, has been bedridden for two years due to illness.

This news made the priest who originally wanted to find a church to purify himself suddenly undecided.

No matter in terms of morality or priority, he should execute his own death sentence first. Although the slanderous news made him angry, but in order to prevent the high-level undead from unconsciously gathering the undead around him and finally causing the natural disaster of the undead, Lu As a dead person who has nothing to do with the world, he should not care about other things.

But lord, the news that the former lord had been ill in bed for two years still made him care.

Because of his personality, he is rarely sent by the lord to deal with political matters—in terms of usefulness, the knight is just a very high-level thug—but he has been working in the circle of the imperial capital for so many years, what kind of sensational time? never heard before?Haven't seen it?

Sick in bed... Can't get any more information from civilians, but this alone is enough for him to worry?

What if it was under house arrest... or someone simply concealed the news of the death of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it is very possible.

Before purifying yourself, why don't you go to the imperial capital first?

The knight hesitated.

Ada had been away from the cabin for a while, and Lu could tell at a glance that the boy had no guts to report his presence, so he wasn't worried at first, but he didn't expect that the boy hadn't come back until noon.

I heard that bandits are rampant in such a remote place, wouldn't that little guy just bump into it?

Probably not, not everyone is as lucky as him.

Ada's wooden house is on the edge of the cemetery, some distance away from the village. Lu walked out of the wooden house and walked into the midday sun with some hesitation. Apart from feeling that the light was very warm, there was no problem.

He felt a little more at ease, and touched the small hill on the side from the path.

Looking at the furnishings in that child's home, he would be very happy if he brought some wild game to him, and kept the wild game as a reward. No matter which way he chooses, it's best not to stay here too much.

The ending of the last world made Lu feel sad.

The last fate... Maybe it was because he, as an undead, was born to bring bad luck to others.

But at least, Black Plum Blossom has been killed by him.

Under the knight's command, the wild beasts on the mountain had only the role of fighting the five scum, and Lu Lu, who finally killed a wild boar, carried the huge body of the wild boar to the top of the mountain and looked towards the village at the foot of the mountain.

He widened his eyes.

A group of people in the village stood in a small open space. Facing the villagers, there were several tall men in full armor and shining silver.

Lu immediately recognized his very familiar attire.

Knights Templar.

The author has something to say:

The title originally wanted to use the one previewed in the previous chapter, but it still feels wrong

But now there is something wrong with this title_(:зゝ∠)_ and the whole chapter feels rushed

I don’t know how to change it_(:зゝ∠)_

The world will reveal all its mysteries, so...

Nineteen’s fast time travel ended in three worlds (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

Looking at the five or six worlds on the outline, I smashed the outline book angrily
