"Ah..." Ada didn't know what to say.

There are still people who believe in cults, do they believe to this extent?

"It's okay," Xiaoxi shook her head calmly. It was very different from her lively and bold appearance when we first met her, and her tone was very calm: "Now I only see light in my eyes, and I will never witness those evil things in the world again."

"What's the matter, this is..." Ada clicked her tongue.

When passing by that mill, the mill owner’s family lived a very prosperous life. They could still have a side job if they had nothing to do, not to mention making a lot of money, but maintaining a well-off (? Harmonious!) life is still very easy, right?

Tavin Lunce heard the cult he was pursuing in the conversation of several people, and slowly moved to Xiaoxi to check.

He even reached out to look at Xiaoxi's eyelids.

Doug stared at this fierce man with a scar on his face, and raised his hand to stop him.But his kung fu is no match for the Xihaiwang mercenary king, he was taken aside as soon as he turned his arm.

With the holy light in his hand, Tavern touched Xiaoxi's eye socket.

The sudden contact made the woman startle, and she leaned back, but Taverance had already withdrawn her hand.

"This is blindness!"

He made a judgment, then patted Doug's arm, apologized for his behavior just now, and then said: "There should be a priest who can dispel this spell here in White Harbor, but it should cost a lot of money."

"About how much," Doug blurted out, "I have some savings."

"do not want!"

Xiao Xi held the arm of the man beside her, and shook her head again and again: "I have sworn to spend the rest of my life worshiping the God of Light and becoming a devout believer, please don't let me break my vow."

"Worshiping something that doesn't exist... Really..." Ada rubbed her nose and persuaded: "And this thing that deprives you of vision is not a miracle at all, but blindness. Didn't you hear that? The one in front of you is a paladin, and you don’t believe his words?”

After speaking, he glanced at Laojiao, and then realized that it was too difficult for him to dispel the advanced curse of blindness.

Seeing Xiaoxi shaking his head again and again and closing his eyes tightly, as if you dare to cure my eyes, you will never open them for the rest of your life, so I invited them to sit down and look at Doug: "What happened, why did you come here? Here? Don’t worry, tell me one by one, there is plenty of time.”

"Let's talk about her first."

Doug helped Xiaoxi to the chair, moved to the side by himself, thought about his words, and said slowly:

"During the famine a while ago, her parents were killed by vagrant bandits, the mill was occupied, and it was burned after looting everything..."

Ada recalled that she seemed to have heard the news in the discussion of previous guests.

But he didn't expect that the place where the incident happened was the mill that he had been to before.

She looked at Xiaoxi, but there was no movement on Xiaoxi's face. She raised her head slightly, as if she was questioning the sky lightly: "Isn't it ridiculous? Obviously we are the most hopeful to survive the famine, but in front of humanity, we have nothing."

"Let me tell." Doug pressed the woman's hand with distress, and looked at Ada: "Is there warm water, sir? But why do you open a tavern here?"

"That's my main business."

Ada greeted Little Wicker for a glass of warm water, and spread her palms: "1 crown."

The eyeballs of Tavin Lance, who was accompanying him, almost popped out: Do you charge money to your subordinates who have fought with you?Looking at it this way, it seems that I was slaughtered unjustly?

Immediately, I was surprised to see the dark-skinned soldier puffed out his chest and replied, "Yes!"

Then without any hesitation, he took out a five-kroner bill and handed it to the proprietress: "I don't have any change."

"It's okay, I won't owe you." Ada turned her head and snapped her fingers, calling out to Xiao Liutiao: "Give him four more glasses of warm water."

The soldier was so upright and obedient that she couldn't bear to swallow the extra 4 crowns for nothing.

Doug didn't take it seriously, and after thanking Ada, he handed warm water to Xiaoxi, watched her take a sip to calm her spirits, and then continued:

"Later she was rescued by the knights of the God of Light. They nailed all the vagrant bandits who participated at that time to wooden stakes and formed a circle around the mill. The reward they asked for was Xiaoxi's vision and faith."

"The cult has knights?" Ada whispered.

Tavin Lance nodded and replied: "And the fighting power is not bad."

"Cough, and then me," Doug cleared his throat when the two of them had finished their discussion, and continued, "I came back from the front line and met her who lived blindly in an abandoned mill. Unable to survive, they took her back to White Harbor on the way."

"Are you looking at her pitifully! You are clearly holding her body!"

Ada is the straight-talking type, and immediately pointed out the real purpose of the soldier.

Doug's dark skin was red, and he begged the officer to shut up with pleading eyes.

Xiaoxi seemed to turn a deaf ear, and continued to sip warm water.

Ada looked at the woman and realized that after the group of refugees occupied the mill, she must have suffered some inhuman treatment, which made her mentally troubled.

The last time I met her was not like this, she even boldly broke into the bedroom, wanting to throw herself into a hug.

"Okay, then why did you retreat from the front line?" the girl changed the subject: "Shouldn't it be a tight time?"

"It doesn't matter. The weather is too cold, and the attacking side has a big disadvantage. Now is the time for a truce." Doug explained: "As for me, I came back this time with the task assigned by Lord Wendi."

"What task?" The girl raised her head.

Doug tried his best to lean back: "Sorry, sir, this is confidential."

"Ha!" O'Meril laughed briefly.

I thought how much face Ada, a little girl, has in the military, but when it comes to the real thing, wouldn't you be excluded?

Ada was not offended.

Doug is a single-minded person. During the Battle of Windhelm's Deep, Lord Wendi asked him to obey his orders, so he really executed everything very well.

But if the lord told him that this mission should not be told to anyone before departure this time, then he must have been beaten to death and would not have said it.

But it's nothing serious, it's nothing more than a mess on the battlefield.

Ada wasn't interested in fighting, and didn't care about his mission, so she called the old prostitute to clean up the hotel rooms for the two, and asked, "But it's a coincidence that you found me here."

"The prices in other urban areas are too expensive, and the accommodation in the harbor area is cheap, but I usually have to go out to do errands, and I don't feel at ease about letting Xiaoxi live alone in such a chaotic place, so I had to find the place with the best security...and live here. Go to the best... er, cheapest hotel."

Doug almost said what he really thought.

"Oh, then you are so right," the stingy proprietress was praised to the bottom of her heart, with a smile all over her face: "My hotel is specially prepared for such grudges as you!"

As he spoke, he pointed to the group of drinkers who were watching the excitement: "Look, my place is the most affordable! It's just you who are born in the blessings and don't know the blessings, and still gossip and slander my reputation! "

After finishing speaking, he took proud steps and led Doug and Xiaoxi towards the hotel next door.

The guests behind whispered: "It's over, the proprietress is shaking now. Look, the wine will be even weaker later."

"Tch, are you here to drink? I don't even want to talk about you!"

"You can see it. In fact, I still want the old pastor to help me heal my illness, ha ha."

"Hehe, I'm not as hypocritical as you." The guest looked at O'Meril and raised his hand to signal, "Excuse me, will the proprietress still wear silk stockings tonight?"

Chapter 358. Women, troublesome things

After Xiaoxi was settled, Ada brought Doug back to the main hall, sat in a corner and asked teasingly: "Why, don't you two live together, haven't you taken it yet?"

Looking at Doug's arrangement just now, it seems that he intends to let the blind farm girl live here alone.

The soldier who had been living in the military camp and neglected to take care of himself scratched his head in embarrassment: "Our relationship hasn't reached that point yet."

"Which step, isn't it?"

The girl was surprised.

Judging by Xiaoxi's appearance, he doesn't reject physical contact between the two, and even looks a little dependent. Why haven't they hit the base yet?

"You are too weak," Ada pointed upstairs: "I met Ah Ying within two weeks, and I was caught by her, no, I took her down."

Now she can generously admit her relationship with Deep Shadow to outsiders.

This is not something to be ashamed of, but it will make you feel very happy.

It turns out that a person like her can also find love one day.

"Is Miss Deep Shadow here?" Doug was not surprised by the relationship between the two, but thought that it was normal for a sassy personality like the officer to be able to kill both men and women.

He explained with a wry smile: "But Xiaoxi has encountered such a thing after all, and it will take time to smooth it out."

Ada was silent.

Sure enough, I guessed right.

But the subject is too depressing to continue.

"By the way, let me introduce you,"

Ada changed the subject and pointed to Triss who was standing behind the counter at the cashier: "That's my daughter, adopted, and this little one."

She touched the head of the little wicker who brought the wine glass, and continued: "It's also adopted, although it's not a daughter...but it's about the same."

After hearing the aunt's introduction, Xiao Liutiao's heart jumped for joy in an instant, and she walked towards her small desk with a bouncing bouncing.

Then when he saw the copybook that his sister had left for him, which was prefixed with neat handwriting, he immediately became depressed again.

"That's great, sir, such a warm home, no wonder you didn't return to the front line." Doug looked at the girl's back and complimented, and put the wine glass in front of the officer first, and carefully turned the handle to a convenient one inside.

"What, don't get me wrong, I'm just helping out in war, I don't serve anyone." Noticing the soldiers' actions, Ada quickly cleared up the misunderstanding.

I'm afraid that this soldier will regard himself as the general of some kingdom.

Doug really showed regret: "I still want to fight side by side with the chief again."

"Heh, in the next life, the price for me to help is quite high."

Ada was merciless.

And see the obvious loss in Doug's eyes.

This straightforward warrior does not hide his emotions.Judging from his many small actions and jerky compliments just now, he just wanted something from himself.

But Ada didn't want to get involved in this shit like fighting a war.

Besides, this Doug didn't even want to reveal his specific mission, which made her even less interested.

Doug was sorry too.

With the strength of the chief, even if he is not a real officer and general, he can know many dignitaries, and it is good to be able to write a letter of introduction for himself.

It's a pity that if you want to ask the greedy chief for help, it seems that you need to spend a lot of money.

I have limited funds for this trip, so I should act step by step according to Lord Wendi's instructions.

Doug, who is upright and stubborn, didn't realize that Ada didn't want to help, so he said that on purpose.

"Come on, have a drink."

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Ada began to exchange cups with this former subordinate, chatting about military affairs.

Although she didn't want to be a guest in the barracks that was noisy every day, left early and returned late, even taking a bath was a luxury, and it was extremely hard work.But like many young people in later generations, he is very interested in marching and fighting, and giving advice.

O'Meril also personally cooked two side dishes and served them, like an obedient daughter-in-law, subtly influencing Ida in his own way.

The tavern became lively again, and the topic of discussion shifted from the proprietress to the border conflict, and then to military prostitutes and women under the intervention of the old whore.

Now it's completely lively.

No one was willing to leave on time. On the one hand, the topic everyone was talking about was too attractive, and on the other hand, it was because of the slightly drunken cheeks. The proprietress of the past, and Kaka, who was very attractive in various aspects.

"Don't worry, when that cult is completely eliminated, Xiaoxi should be able to wake up."

Ada comforted Doug with her tongue out, and made a promise: "At that time, I will find someone for you to remove her blindness curse."

"Yes, I think so too, she will understand sooner or later." Doug nodded his thanks, poured wine for the officer, and was a little puzzled: "But I just can't figure out why those knights still want to save someone after they saved someone." Casting such a vicious curse on Xiaoxi will not gain anything."

If it is some small sect that believes in the true God, it is still possible to do so according to different teachings.

Because the execution of the teachings can increase the faith of the god you believe in.

But the God of Light... Although this name sounds very lofty, there is no such a god at all, right?

There are some who play side-by-side with light, such as daylight, sunlight, or the Lord of the Corona, but no matter which true god they are, there is no such concept as "the kingdom of pure white" and "pure light".

Ada also couldn't guess the real purpose of those knights, shrugging her shoulders: "Who knows, it hurts to be idle."

Doug reckoned that his boss might not know what it was like to have a ball hurt.

He stroked the stubble on his chin, and asked suddenly: "By the way, you knew Xiaoxi before?"

There was a sudden silence at the wine table

Facing the soldier's curious and probing eyes, Ada bit the bullet and answered ambiguously:

"Um... maybe I should know?"
