Hino stood on the execution ground of the town together with the elves, watching the priest's lackeys being wiped out one by one on the spot.

An elf stood up and questioned the local pastor: "We heard that the group of bullies who bully the people are actually backed by you. The innocent people who ask you for help in private will even be killed by the bullies. Is this true? ?"

Hino: "..."

Although it is good to have this kind of doubting spirit among his clansmen, how can the other party admit this kind of thing directly?

As expected, the pastor showed a surprised and aggrieved expression when he heard the words: "Which villain with no peace of mind slandered me like this? I treat my people like my own children! The reason why I was deceived by those evil villagers before is because Because it is too easy for me to trust these young villagers, I can't be cruel to them, I am willing to make up for the harm caused to the villagers by this negligence, but I cannot accept such slander!"

The elves were not good at arguing, and subconsciously searched for the figure of "Hino Lane" in the crowd, wondering if Hino had any evidence to prove the pastor's crimes revealed in the Black Forest.

Hino lowered his head, his cheeks were hot, he was not ashamed of the questioning gazes of his clansmen, but ashamed of his lack of thoughtfulness.

If Sandy was allowed to plan this matter, he would not be so stupid.

Hino squanders a crucial first opportunity to reveal, and hundreds of elves will be suspicious of him for this failed plan.

At this moment, Xino heard the choked and trembling voice of a little girl from among the villagers behind her——

"Pastor Alfred is the backer of those villains! This is what my father told me before he died!"

Like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, everyone turned their heads to look for the speaker like frightened fish swimming.

Hino quickly found the speaker, who was a little brown-haired girl standing behind the villagers.

She was wearing a torn skirt that looked like a sack, barefoot, and she looked no older than nine years old. At this moment, her mouth was covered by the hands of the young woman beside her. The woman looked somewhat similar to the girl. , probably her mother.

"Ma'am, please let her continue." Shino immediately stood up and looked at the woman coldly: "Otherwise, I will accuse you of covering up those gangsters who illegally blackmailed the villagers."

"Your Excellency, please spare us! My daughter is not sensible yet, she is talking nonsense!" The woman immediately let go of the little girl and knelt down towards Hino.

"Please stand up and answer." Seizing this unexpected turning point, Hino quickly walked up to the little girl and the woman, encouraging the mother and daughter to tell the truth about the murder of the child's father: "Little girl, what's your father's name? When did you die? Why did you die?"

"My father's name is Yade, and he has been buried for 27 days. The shoe store in my house is too small for guests to walk around. This spring, my parents covered the backyard together and made it part of the shoe store. However, Yi Dirui Some villains in the gang said that we occupied the land under their jurisdiction without permission, and demanded that we pay double the protection fee every year! But the yard was originally ours! We just put a roof on it! My father is not convinced, regardless of my mother Blocking, secretly pleading for justice to Pastor Alfred, the pastor said he must deal with these lawless villains, but in fact arranged for those gangsters in the gang to ambush my dad on his way home, my dad When we got home, it was already…”

"Stop talking about Cecily!" The woman beside her stopped her daughter's accusation with a trembling voice.

Hino warned sharply: "This is the last time, ma'am, don't interrupt her accusation."

"When my father came home, he was covered in blood," the girl was encouraged by the golden-eyed elf, and continued to accuse loudly: "Dad told us that Pastor Alfred betrayed him, and the gang of scoundrels who beat my father Laughing at my father like a pastor, they said: You are not a shoemaker who keeps his own footing, if you dare to sue them in front of me today, you will dare to sue me elsewhere tomorrow.”

After hearing the girl's accusation, the elves turned their heads angrily to look at Priest Alfred.

The pastor looked calm, and responded with a chuckle: "It seems that these villains are really slandering me behind my back. They want the people to think that I am their backer. No wonder no one has come to complain to me after these villains have been rampant for so long. It's treacherous! Death deserves more than guilt!"

Hino turned her head and stared at the pastor coldly: "This is her father's personal accusation before he died, Mr. Pastor, do you have any evidence to prove your innocence?"

"Your Excellency, do I still need to prove my innocence? The day after Cecily's father came to me to complain, I arrested and executed the two thugs who blackmailed their shoe store. If I were with them A group of people, why did you kill your own people? On the day of the execution, the villagers also came here to watch, that is the result of the trial handed down by me, if you don’t believe me, you can ask everyone present!”

Hino turned to look at the villagers.

The villagers also looked at him silently, as if they were guessing whether this elf was capable of eradicating Alfred by the roots. If not, the villagers would undoubtedly seek their own death if they told the truth.

"The duty of the elves is to protect, and we came all the way from the Black Forest to your town just to uphold justice for you!" Hino encouraged the silent group of Toomi people: "The elves and Aowei who are both guardians , the status can be said to be equal, we represent Emperor Odong, and the witches are only officials who assist Aowei, the elves have enough rights to eradicate priests who collude with villains and oppress the people for you, but if you choose at this moment Cowardly and silent, for generations to come, you will continue to be cruelly oppressed by Alfred."

Hearing the elf's impassioned words, the villagers originally had hope on their faces, but Shino's last words made the villagers calm down again.

After eradicating this priest, there will be a next priest, and what kind of Wu people will they usher in?

This small town often receives refugees from all over the world. Naturally, they have heard of the cruel methods of priests in other regions. Compared with them, they even feel that Alfred is more secure. At least this Wu tribe does not monopolize the wells to make them unable to drink water.

The elves overthrew Alfred, must they save them?Not necessarily, on the contrary, it may even be exchanged for a more cruel and greedy new priest.

Hino looked at the group of Tomi people with confidence, but finally waited for the group of people to testify for the pastor in unison. The villagers said: The pastor did judge the sinners, and Cecily's father just listened to the instigation of the villains. I am framing the priest.

Such a response caught Shino off guard.

There were tens of thousands of people standing in the execution ground, obviously wanting to save these people, but Xinuo felt that he was outnumbered and had a sense of hopelessness and powerlessness.

"My father didn't frame the pastor! The pastor betrayed my father!" The little girl was still screaming, but her mother covered her mouth again.

"A child is a child, and he has no ability to distinguish right from wrong." The pastor slowly shook his head with kindness and helplessness, then turned to smile at Hino and said, "Your Excellencies, you don't need to worry about it. Naturally, I won't care about it like a child. Some villagers I am already very relieved to have testified for my innocence."

Such a result made all the elves feel ashamed of questioning the pastor just now, and they all quietly looked at Hino, hoping that he would take the lead in apologizing.

Hino turned his head to look at the villagers behind him who were supporting the pastor, and at the little girl whose mouth was covered by a woman. Finally, he turned his head dimly and said softly to the pastor: "Sorry, I listened to the villains. Instigated, I misunderstood you, you are a respected and good pastor. However, Lord Alfred, I have a gracious request, I hope you can agree."

"Just speak up." The pastor immediately responded generously.

Hino thought for a while, and begged in a low voice: "The little girl named Cecily lost her father. She is still young, and it is difficult to judge right from wrong. If she is allowed to stay here, she will definitely grow up with grievances and resentment." , I hope to go to the garrison camp to find some troll guards, and send her to another small town to start a new life and forget the pain she endured here."

"How can this be considered a request?" The pastor readily agreed, "I should thank you for your thoughtfulness, otherwise, how much pain would this innocent child have to endure? Please go to the camp to pick out the troll guards yourself. This is mine. Troop dispatch card, you just send it, let them complete the task and then return the card to me."

The elves were moved by the pastor's generosity, and they all took the initiative to apologize for the words that framed the pastor just now.

This long-distance rescue operation became a joke, and the elves were embarrassed to stay any longer, and when Hino chose escorts to send the shoemaker's mother and daughter away, they left the town together.

Sending those stupid elves away, the gentle smile on Pastor Alfred's face instantly turned into a murderous intent like a poisonous snake, and he ordered his subordinates: "Be sure to find out the ghosts and see who dares to kill them." Report to the Black Forest."

"Yes!" The subordinate took the order.

"And the mother and daughter, come back to me immediately." As soon as he finished speaking, Alfred immediately changed his mind: "Forget it, don't bring them back, let them die in the wild by accident, especially the little one." You son of a bitch, cut off the limbs first and let her die slowly."

Several bodyguards of the pastor used the fastest horses to catch up with the carriage of the troll guards all day and night.

"His Excellency Alfred has an order! Immediately execute the mother and daughter Gilad!"

When the troll guards heard the shout behind them, they immediately reined in the carriage, turned around and shouted suspiciously: "The elf said that the priest ordered us to escort them to the town of Yanida, and there is a token to prove it!"

The pastor's bodyguard took out the envelope from his pocket and threw it at the head of the troll guard, urging impatiently: "This is a letter written by the pastor, feel the seal to see if it is real or not, don't waste time!"

The troll guards jumped off their horses, gathered together, and opened the letter to examine the contents carefully.

"Cut off limbs, let blood to death..." The troll guard murmured hoarsely: "This child is only eight years old, isn't the priest too cruel?"

The pastor's guard finally lost his patience when he heard the words, and immediately stepped forward and scolded: "Where is there so much nonsense! Don't make mistakes! If you don't want to do it, get out, and I will carry out the execution myself!"

After finishing speaking, the guard jumped off his horse and kicked open the door of the carriage.

The mother and daughter in the carriage hugged each other and screamed in fright.

"Come out!" The guard raised his hand to grab the mother and daughter, a white light pierced his eyes, and his chest felt cold. Before the guard could recover, he fell limply beside the carriage.

"What are you doing!" A group of guards behind pulled out their long knives with a "crack" and pointed at the troll guard emitting white light!

The "troll guard" raised his hand and took off his helmet, his long pale golden hair fell down like a waterfall, and he turned his head slowly, his golden eyes seemed to be burning with flames, staring at the guards furiously.

"It's the blond elf from yesterday!" a guard shouted in shock.

"Don't let him run away!" The leading guard shouted loudly, raised his knife and rushed towards Hino——

"Shh-"

There was the sound of drawing bows and setting arrows neatly, and the elves who were disguised as troll guards behind Shino made their moves instantly, and Qiqi drew their bows to meet the enemy!

The pastor's bodyguard was so frightened that he hurriedly reined in his horse, and in a low voice ordered one of his subordinates to turn around and report to the pastor.

The subordinate nodded to accept the order, but just as he turned the horse's head, he felt a strange noise from the surrounding trees.

The guards raised their heads in a panic, and saw more than 600 elves who had been ambushing in the tree earlier, all of them were holding bows and arrows at this moment, and the arrows pointed precisely at every fatal point of them.

The guards were completely frozen in place, and the blond elf's angry low hoarse voice came from behind: "It is you devils who should be punished."
