Three Philosophical Questions for Travelers

"Are you still going to fight me?" Bagu asked him.

"Huh!" he replied.

********

This might be my last charge, Bean thought, Ice Bear is too old for my sword.

Without strength, even the best sword is useless.

As he predicted, his sword betrayed him.Ba Gu snatched his sword with his bare hands, and also twisted his right hand.

He has no sword, no hands, and he can't even hold the reins.But the old man still has a breath, that is the courage of a man from the northern country, even if his limbs are broken, he will bite a piece of the enemy's flesh with his teeth.

He picked up the spare sword with his left hand. This sword was far less sharp than the Sigh Sword, but it was enough to kill the enemy.

"Huh!" His mouth was full of blood, and a mouthful of blood flowed out along his lips.He rushed to the giant beast again, and he heard Bagu's roar: "Taste your own sword!"

It would be a great irony if I died by the sword of sighing, he thought.

Immediately after, his premonition came true, and the sighing sword cut off his iron sword effortlessly, then sliced ​​open his armor, cut his flesh...he was in the same place as Bagushang.

At this time, a rat came to attack him, and Bean had no weapon, so he could only kick him.Fortunately, his lieutenant rushed over, and Maris chopped down the traitor, and then said loudly: "General, retreat! Our people are dying!" He saw that the armor on Maris's chest was covered with blood, and He was also blind in one eye, and half of his face was covered in black blood.

At the same time, the little trident shouted at him: "Old bear, how many teeth do you have?"

The old bear was enraged. "Give me a sword!" he yelled at the lieutenant.

The lieutenant gave him the spare sword, and Bean took it and said, "You will be the general after I die! Huh!" He turned towards the enemy to meet again.At this time, he felt his stomach trembling, and looked down, it turned out that the intestines flowed out. He stuffed the intestines with his crippled right hand, held the sword with his left hand, and met the God of War in the Gulf.

The sigh sword flashed from his throat, and Bean's vision began to spin.

His eyes saw his own headless torso, sitting on the horse, still charging with the sword.He saw that his army was routed, he saw the children in the north bleeding; he saw Lieutenant Maris screaming heart-piercingly, and charging towards Karn; he saw the sighing sword in Bone's hand , and saw the last white bear battle flag...

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo..." he said at last.

Ice Bear fell.

Although the main general fell, his army still resisted tenaciously.A one-eyed man took up the banner again, and fought Bowle Kahn.But he didn't last long before his head was smashed by a bone.However, the brave northerners are still fighting, and I am afraid that [-]% of them will die here.

Bagu ordered people to clean up the battlefield and treat the wounded—both his own and the enemy's. He needed some prisoners.

Finally, he came to the dead body of the white bear. Looking at the headless corpse, he thought to himself: A warrior like you should not serve a coward like the little king.

If you are my subject, I will be able to give you more honor.

"Sew up the white bear's body, wrap it with a military flag, and then give him a good coffin." Bugu ordered, "Send his body back with dignity, so that his soul can return to his hometown.

"Yes, Your Majesty," Karen said.

"Order, go and ask someone to take a rough count of the casualties." He continued to order.

It didn't take long for a soldier to come back and say to him: "I let the casualties be light, and the battle damage is about three to one."

One Gulf fighter can exchange for three northerners, um, not bad.But the number of northerners is more than three times that of ours, and this is not enough.

Ba Gu looked in the direction of Eagle Head City, and thought in his heart: Little bastard, Captain, have you two seen it?Eagle Head City is right in front of my eyes!I'll tear off the eagle's talons and smash its beak!As for the two wings, I leave them to you.

*********

The second battle report was quickly spread to the palace, and the little king guessed what was going on before reading it.

So he convened nobles and ministers while reading the battle report, and when he finished reading, he would hold a meeting immediately.He called all the people in the city who could come, especially the hot-blooded young nobles and knights who still believed in honor.

The palace hall is already full of people, nobles, knights, officials, as well as some celebrities and wealthy businessmen in the city, all people of status are here.The king deliberately changed into black clothes, and then put a white garland around his wrist.

When he came out, there was no sound in the hall.

"As you can see, our hero, Bean Lastall, has died." After saying this, he closed his eyes, tears streaming down the corners of his eyes, leaving two lines of marks on his face.The eye drops work really well, he thought.

Many wept, others either observed silence or cursed.A young northern nobleman drew his sword and said that he would go to the battlefield to avenge the Duke; another woman had her hair cut on the spot and said that she would go to the battlefield with a man.

The king ignored them and let his emotions ferment.After a few minutes, the king said: "I once stopped the Duke of Lastor, and I said: 'You are old, and the charge should be left to the young people. All the men in the north are warriors. Bastard!'" With the exception of myself, "he answered me: 'My lord, I am old, but not old--'"

Having said this, the little king choked up a bit—of course he was pretending.

"'—how can I bear to watch the children sacrifice? Let me go, let me shed my last drop of blood for the kingdom. Pray for me, and I will triumph. Even if I die in battle, my death is worth it Meaningful. Arrogant people will put away their arrogance because of me, cowardly people will get courage from me, and brave people will avenge me.'”

The king opened his arms violently, and he said loudly: "The northern border was built on the shoulders of these heroes! It is because of nobles like Duke Bean that the northern border can continue to this day!" People cheered loudly, and he continued, "This is a great country, and we have countless heroes: Hardy Heworth, Milan Carter, Bia Lastor, Caris Bullland..." He pondered for a moment, and finally added The hero's name with political undertones, "Camtrane Lastor!"

After saying this name, he obviously felt that the breathing of the people below stopped.Because this name used to be taboo, no one dared to say it.

"We have so many heroes. We are a country that has bred countless great heroes. It is impossible for fishermen in the Gulf to defeat such a country!"

"The great souls of our ancestors are watching us in the sky. The northern border has gone through countless winds and rains to the present, and it will not be washed away by a single wave!"

The little king is good at demagoguery—although he hates this kind of specialty, he is really good at it, and this is a specialty that has been inherited in the Heworth family.His speech made the young men's blood boil, and there would be many fools willing to die for the kingdom.

"Next, I will announce three things."

"First, the city will observe a moment of silence for the Duke. All entertainment facilities will be closed, and the castle will hang a black flag. The enemy troops will not retreat, and the black flag will not be lowered."

"Secondly, I hope that all the citizens of the northern border who have not been present can donate to the war. After we have completely won, the donation will be returned in full - the money will come from the Gulf!" Hearing this, people They all cheered.

"Finally, those who can avenge Duke Bien Lastol will be eligible to become the new Grand Knight Commander!"

A small group of people screamed, Cade knew those guys, they were all from the Far North.These young nobles are still at the age of dreaming, and they still want to make contributions on the battlefield.But soon, the bloody facts will teach them to be human.

"This is the end of the meeting. In the next few days, I will often hold a citizen meeting. I hope that all my loves will attend on time-General Foli stays, and everyone else please leave."

So the crowd dispersed, leaving only the old general Buddhist principles.Foli is a veteran, and he is 65 years old this year.Although his achievements and abilities are not outstanding, he is stable enough to make him a perfect defender.

He told Buddha, saying: "This time I will fight with you, and I will command the battle from the city wall."

Foli was startled, and asked him, "Your Majesty, are you really going to climb the city wall yourself? It's too dangerous. Catapults and Liuya don't have eyes!"

"The little trident has arrived at my door, of course I have to meet him for a while!" Cade said, "And when I climb the wall, Bagu will definitely attack the city! He always says I'm a coward, How can a brave man have any reason to escape when a coward goes up to the city wall?"

"This is reckless, Your Majesty."

"You just have to do your job, and you don't have to worry about anything else!" the little king said to him.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Foli saluted him

In fact, there is another reason why Cade didn't say anything about going up the city wall:

If Ruya smashes me to death, it will be over once and for all!

Fuck you king.

Chapter 5: Saints, Madonnas and Heroes, a

[Chapter 4 and Chapter 5 will be interspersed, and the length of each chapter will reach tens of thousands of words. 】

["The King, the Overlord and the Devil" is from the perspective of Cade Heworth and Bone Kahn and others, and "The Saint, the Virgin and the Hero" is from the perspective of Haven, Eros (Laya) and Razor]

In the evening, the ancient temple of the Baiyihui was in front of us. The army stopped here, and various military flags fluttered in the wind.People lit torches to brighten the night.

It was a classical Gulf-style temple. The temple was built on a solid boulder, with huge stone pillars and high walls, strong enough to withstand all storms.In fact, this is how it came over these years. The violent storms in the bay area failed to destroy it, and neither did the military chaos and riots.Three hundred ascetic monks guard the place forever, rebels cannot enter, robbers dare not come, only kind people can come in to worship the old gods.

The monks plow the fields and graze by themselves, and are self-sufficient in food, clothing, housing and transportation. If there is any surplus output, they sell it to the poor at a low price, or even donate it to the poorest for free.They also do free clinics in the temple, using cheap but effective herbs to treat the sick around them.This is the cleanest land in the bay, a paradise for good people, hermits and practitioners.

But today it is no longer peaceful here.

Three hundred warrior monks came out in full force, and they gathered in front of the gate, preparing to meet the coalition forces of the White Clothes Society.The enemy was almost ten times their size, but none of the monks showed any fear.A huge torch is lit at the gate of the temple, and the flames are blazing.

Eros stood behind Laya, and she saw that the eyes of the saint were more resolute than those ascetic monks, even compared to the flames.

Laya said at this time: "Guardians of the Holy Land, I have no intention of being your enemy, please ask your leaders to speak to me."

An elderly woman walked out of the monks. She was wearing a tattered robe and a gray belt around her head. Although the clothes were worn out, they were washed very clean.She has a double-headed staff with obsidian on one side and a crescent shovel on the other.She turned the obsidian to Laya and said, "Who are you, why did you bring soldiers and horses here?"

Laya replied: "I am Laya, the chairman of the White Clothes Association, have you forgotten me? Aunt Ikara."

"Raya... oh, Raya," the old woman murmured, "I'm blind and half-deaf, I don't recognize you." Her tone softened after saying this, " Laya, what are you doing here? Why are you bringing so many people? Is there a war outside?"

"There is going to be a war, Sister." Raya tried to approach her, and the other monks immediately pointed their spears and crescent spades at her.But Raya had one foot up the steps, and she said, "Mother, I need to enter the holy place. Please allow me to enter."

"You can go in, but you should also know the rules."

Laya didn't speak, Eros looked at her from behind, thinking: What is the rule?

"I... I may not be in compliance with the rules, but the matter is important, please allow me."

Mammy's expression became serious, and she said, "Which rule do you violate?"

Raya didn't answer.

Dark clouds covered the stars and the moon, and the sky became pitch black.The wind became cold and swift, and it seemed that it was going to rain.

Aunt Ikara slammed the ground with a crescent shovel and said: "The White Clothes Society has three rules for women who enter the holy place. First, you must be the chairman of the White Clothes Society; second, you must have three sacred objects; third, you must be a Clean virgin! Raya, which one is it?"

Hearing this, Eros was very puzzled, and she thought to herself: Lady Laya is completely in line!She is the chairman, she just won the three sacred objects, she must also be...

Hey?

Eros looked at Laya's back, and a devil-like thought rose in her heart.

The old woman asked again: "Which one is it, Laya!"

Laya replied: "I am the chairman, and I also have three holy objects."

Mammy's face calmed down, and she said, "Then after I check your body, you can go in."

Lightning flashed across the sky, and the electric light illuminated Laya's painful face, and then thunder rolled, and the thunder seemed to explode on Eros' heart.

"No, my body has been defiled." Said the saintess of the White Clothes Society.

This sentence shocked Eros more than the thunder.

The first one to respond was the coalition army brought by Laya. Those men exclaimed in surprise, some of them were joking, and some laughed.Then came the veteran and the orc. They both looked at each other and murmured: "Impossible." The third one responded was the old woman, who roared and said, "What are you talking about? You are a white-clothed society!" Chairman!"

Eros was the last person to react.She opened her mouth and cried, and she felt that her eyes were dark, and she couldn't speak a word.

The raindrops fell on her body and burrowed into her neck like cold worms.She suddenly felt numb and itchy all over, and her teeth began to chatter.

How is this possible?She thought to herself, I get along with her day and night, I eat with her, sleep with her, I even take a bath... Oh, Lord Laya hasn't asked me to bathe her for a long time, and she also recites it when she changes clothes. Look at me, then...could it be...

At this time, Eros heard a lewd voice saying: "Bitch, whore in white clothes! Haha! How much do you pay for a night? Let me have a good time!"

"What did you say!" Eros rushed towards the man like crazy, tearing his mouth with her hands.Aaron held her down, and Eros slipped and fell into the wet mud.More people came to laugh at him, especially those nasty mercenaries.

Eloise's nails dug into the ground, and a terrible roar came out of her throat, "Bastards, you bastards! I'm going to pull out your tongues, cut out your eggs, and cut out your dicks." !" she yelled, but her swearing only drew more jeers.

At this time, the orc smashed the soldier's head with an axe.

"Is it funny?" he asked the men in a dull voice.No one dared to speak.Then the orc growled and said, "Are you funny? You beasts! Whoever laughs again, I'll chop him up and feed him to the pigs!"

Then the crowd fell silent, and the Orc helped Eros and taught him to rise, but Eros could not get up, her legs were weak, and she sat on the ground, letting the raindrops fall on her.

"You obscene bitch," the old nun's tone was full of disdain, "You bitch, you can never enter the Holy Land."

Laya stood as before, and her expression didn't change at all. "This is not what I wanted. My soul is still as pure as a virgin. Please let me in, Aunt Ikara." She was speaking faster and faster, as if she wanted to end it all as soon as possible.

"Don't think about it, you slut, you have completely embarrassed us! The saint of the White Clothes Society actually committed adultery with a man, you—"

Laya interrupted sharply: "I said it wasn't my intention! I was..." She bit her lip hard at this point, her whole body trembling with anger, "Let me in, I have to go in." She said bravely.

"I will not let unclean people defile the Holy Land!" The old woman pointed the crescent shovel at her, "Go away, or die!"

Laya finally got angry, and she roared: "There is no woman cleaner than me in this world, you old bastard! I am willing to swear to my mentor, my soul is as pure as white paper!"

Ikara shouted: "If you are really a chaste woman, then you should kill yourself to show your innocence!"

Laya asked her: "I am a victim, why am I the one who wants to commit suicide? Besides, if I die, who will complete the cause of the White Clothes Society? Who will eliminate the suffering and injustice in the world?"
