The Legend of Fatality
Chapter 52: case
Amen Cannon is ready to go northwest to collect treasures, including nine flat-bottomed boats and two canoes, ten selected men, and related supplies, mining and excavation equipment along the way. Mainly aimed at silver coins that have been dissolved together, or newly discovered treasures. Amen Cannon felt that this matter was still kept as confidential as possible, so he left Bain and Falheim away from the house, and all other members of the oath went together, including the two children.
However, Nicholas seemed to be too obsessed with work and was forgotten by everyone. Bai En found that the busy figure in the alchemy work was three days after Amen Cannon left the black tower. Thinking of this, Bai En turned to leave silently.
The children in the group of human slaves, only a part of them have parents, these are of course returned to their parents. It's a pity that most of the children don't have parents here. Amen Cannon directly waved their hands and earned them all into the Black Tower for related education. But the person who made the decision ran away, and when he left, he confessed to Bai En and Falheim with a serious heart, and he must take care of these little farts.
Now Bai En is teaching literacy classes to this group of children. This group of children learns quickly, but Bai En does not see which children have talents for spell-casting, and they are basically mediocre. While impressing them through constant repetition, Bai En, who was wandering around the world, noticed that Falheim's face was starting to be wrong. Bai En decided to come here today. At the same time, in order to satisfy his own bad taste, Bai En also left homework for the children below and copied the learned words a hundred times. Looking at their little faces wrinkled into a pile, Bai En had a thrill of revenge.
"There is a fart." Baien, who had finished the assignment, went directly to Falheim and asked.
"Two children are missing." Falheim said faintly.
"Here? Or outside?" Bai En turned to look at the children who had just finished class. He had no habit of naming.
"Outside." Falheim refers to the children in the village. "The key point is that no one reported. I felt a bit wrong sending the food over today. I counted the number carefully and found that there were two fewer girls."
"Well, let's deal with it." Bai En wouldn't ask whether he ran into the forest to play, whether he hid it, or whether he went to a relative's house. Not to mention children, adults dare to leave here casually and may become the feces of a certain creature the next day.
Bai En let the children deal with the problem of eating, and left the children in the black tower afterwards. The black tower was reintroduced when Amen Cannon decided to take this group of children, and they could not go to any dangerous and unsuitable places for children. If there is no mage to open the black tower door for them, they can neither enter nor exit. However, the kitchen is still open to them, and even children can make simple meals.
The two left the black tower and hurried to the village. The villages of the human slaves are not far from the Black Tower, probably less than a mile, the humans are in the southeast of the Black Tower, and the dwarves and halflings are in the southwest.
The two are in front of each other, five feet apart. This is the habitual distance that the two have cooperated for a long time. It is convenient for mutual support and will not be affected by each other. Bai En did not feel dangerous, nor did he feel the mana fluctuate. However, Bai En has been very poor in this respect, but unfortunately Amen Cannon even took away Frian, he is the strongest in the sense of magic.
Bai En turned his head, and slightly looked sideways to ask Falheim how he felt. Falheim shook his head, and he didn't find anything. The two can only choose to start from the periphery of the village.
Bai En walked around the village and found a place with a lot of blood. After approaching, he found that there was a tree stump next to the blood stain with a mark of axe hacking. Bai En squatted down and picked up the soil stained with blood Smell in front of the nose. Deer blood and wild boar blood, there are two kinds of unknown, but also the blood taste of wild animals.
"They killed a sheep." Falheim said, pointing to the wool on the stump. "This is where they slaughtered and handled the animals."
"Bone they can't hide." Bai En got up and said.
"But our magic will show all the bones in this area."
"Just look for **** bones. Match me." Bai En took off the sacrificial knife from his waist with his right hand, and pulled out two small materials, an eyeball and a small bottle of blood, and began to cast. Falheim also used a gem and a sacrificial knife in conjunction with Bane's spellcasting. As the spell was completed, Bai En covered his left eye with one hand, the eyeball in his hand turned, glancing around. The jewel in Falheim's hands glowed softly, making the blood extremely visible.
The two walked around the village and found six places where the bones were buried. Unfortunately, they were all animals. One of the bones was even crushed. I do n’t know what to eat.
The two have no choice but to enter the village. Bai En actually didn't want to enter the village. First of all, they didn't care about these people, so no one knew who the missing children belonged to. Unless one by one is asked, it is impossible to confirm who the child's parents are. Secondly, if no one in the village mentions it, it is possible that the whole village did it together. In this case, the two simply went to death. However, for some reason, Bain and Falheim went into their teeth.
The situation in the village is better than Bai En expected. The villagers have unnatural expressions such as fear, fear, worry, curiosity, etc. These are normal. Leaders suddenly come to visit, and it is the same for everyone. The good thing is that Bai En does not see hatred or anger, these two emotions are very dangerous. Bai En took the opportunity to act like an official who was consoling in Xia Village, and suddenly grabbed someone's hand and said a bunch of words of comfort. .
"I suddenly thought of something." Bai En whispered to Falheim. "You found that you lost two children. You haven't counted the adults?"
"Ah ..." Falheim didn't expect this.
"You don't have any hobbies for children?" Bai En jumped to the side, away from each other.
"Go! You have a hobby for children." Falheim said angrily. "Leave the family missing? The courage is too bold."
"With this possibility, let's see which houses are obviously unoccupied, and maybe we can ask them."
Falheim nodded, the two changed their targets, and turned around in the village again. Falheim noticed a relatively intact house with walls on at least four sides. But I did n’t see the owner. Although the women would go to the cultivated fields, most of the villagers stayed at home in winter, and the black tower would provide them with food, so most of the time they had to do was to ensure that they were not frozen to death. Basically, the remaining men go to cut wood during the day, and women and children watch the fire at home.
Bai En stood for a while at the door of this house, and found that no one had taken care of himself, and the short body got into the door hole without a door. The house is very small, about 150 square feet, with a stove and fire in the middle, and beds all around. Under the bed was dried straw, with straw mats on it. Bai En checked and found nothing.
The fire in the middle was surrounded by stones to prevent the flames from running outside and igniting the whole family. Bai En touched the fire, and it was so cold that there was no trace of residual temperature at all. He turned over the scum that burned in it, and it was extinguished by himself when the fuel was exhausted.
"What did you find?" Falheim's voice came from outside.
"It should be this one." Bai En said out of the house. "The fire went out on its own. Things got in trouble."
