Chapter 124: a child

From the white water river pier led by New Cecil, it is only one day away from Tanzan Town.

In the last part of the journey, Gao Wen and his entourage circled the road and reached the stone bridge in front of Tanzan Town by the cover of the forest. Then they lurked on the south side of the stone bridge and watched the Tanzanian gate across the bridge.

"Is it noticed? The town seems to have been martial," looked at the door far away. Pitman whispered. "There are no pedestrians on the bridge. The number of soldiers at the gate is not normal. There are many docks next to the town. The ship seems to have been detained there."

The shadows under the nearby bushes twisted, and the figure of amber came out from the shadow: "I just watched the road for a long time, I didn't see any caravans or travelers passing by. The town martial law should last at least two days... ..."

“It seems that after the Golden Eye Pigel’s ship has just left here, the town has restricted access,” Gao Wen analyzed. “Byron wants to stay in Tanzan Town to continue recruiting serfs. He’s acting conspicuously. It’s hard to get out, no wonder no news came back."

The amber crow spoke a bit: "Isn't that already going wrong?"

Gao Wen shook his head: "When you look at the gate, the town is only restricted in and out. The order inside is still normal. Byron is a mercenary, and he is very slippery. He will not be in this environment."

"Cough, the problem is how do we get in," Pitman coughed twice. "The two sides of Tanzan Town are the mountains on the back of the river. The entrance is only a stone bridge and a gate at the front of the town. Are they all swaying under the eyes of the soldiers? ?"

The Philip Knights couldn’t help but shake their heads: "It’s not clear what is going on in the town. If the cult has already controlled the Viscount of Andrew, our appearance will definitely arouse the vigilance of those sinners."

It turns out that the young knight is just old-fashioned and straight, he is not stupid...

Gao Wen narrowed his eyes, and a high-definition satellite image was immediately formed in his mind.

“The Tanzanite mine has a road that can be taken from the east side of the town to the back of the town, and can be directly close to the castle area,” Gao Wen opened his eyes. “But crossing the river is still a problem. This bridge is... who?!”

Gao Wen suddenly sensed a weak and sneaky breath swaying nearby, and immediately turned his head in that direction and asked, and after he made a sound, Amber noticed the uncoordinated from the shadow fluctuations around him. "The shadow", immediately took out two daggers and turned a knife in front of him: "Come out! We have found you!"

The jungle was quiet and quiet, but after a while, the bushes under a tree suddenly shook twice, followed by a dirty, messy little head coming out from behind the bushes. It was a little boy with a head The yellow and messy and seemingly untrimmed hair for several years, wearing shorts and burrowed shorts and shorts, it is a typical poor. The perennial malnutrition makes him yellow and thin, stunted. But only one pair of eyes, a pair of bright eyes on his face, with the kind of agility and light that his class of adults did not have.

But these big eyes were now with a faint mist, full of horror, and he stood up from the bushes, his body shivering, and even seemed to have forgotten to escape.

"Is it a child?" Philip Knight wrinkled his face. He never thought of "latching" in the jungle. The sneaky activities would be such a child who looked like a child in his early age and there is still no power fluctuation in his body. Helping the weak training made his face slow down slightly, but the knight's military training made him not dare to take his hand off the hilt. "You don't want to walk slowly."

The child suddenly screamed "ah" in horror, then turned and ran.

"You are holding such a big sword, people are not running, there are ghosts!" Amber looked at Philip like a fool, and then the figure flashed into the shadows. After a while, the child escaped. A short exclamation came, and then the shade in front of Gao Wen squirmed. Amber took the child’s collar and emerged from the shadows. The ghost-level shadow talent is good. This guy runs with his own body. Any door like.

The child was easily caught by Amber, and the middle of the journey was probably a short trip to the dark world. This made him completely scared and really forgot to escape, but his fear increased dramatically. So Gao Wen felt that he would be scared to cry in the next second, but the child just stretched his face, licked his lips, and finally did not cry, but looked at the stranger in front of him with fear.

"Don't be afraid," Amber hurriedly pacified the child at this time. "We are not good people..."

Gao Wen suddenly took a look at the shame of all things.

"Oh no, we are not bad people," Amber quickly changed his mouth, and then apologized to Gao Wen, "The previous occupational disease has not changed..."

"We won't hurt you," Philip Knight put his hand on the boy's head. "Look, I am a knight, I will protect you."

The little boy was scared at first, but after hearing Philip's words, he still calmed down a bit and seemed to understand his nod.

Gao Wenzhao said at this time: "You are a child from a nearby family? How can you sway in the woods?"

The little boy was shocked by Gao Wen, the height of two meters and the face of the national character, and jumped back and forth.

"You don't have to be afraid, he is my lord," Philip Knight said quickly. "He is a good and kind person."

At this time, Amber saw that the little boy did not speak from beginning to end, could not help but pick it up: "He should not be a dumb?"

Gao Wengang wanted to say that he didn't look at the bb, but he saw Pitman frowning next to him. Then the old druid stepped forward to pinch the boy's chin, opened his mouth and took a closer look.

"His tongue was cut off," the old druid let go, and said after a moment of silence, "and at least cut off for two years."

Gao Wen’s words were suddenly on his chest. He didn’t know what changed his face on that moment. He only knew that Amber shrank his head when he looked at himself. Then he suppressed his anger: “So Small children, what crimes are sinned?!"

Even the brutal and backward medieval law will not cut off the tongue of children under the age of fourteen, even the blood **** church known for its iron and blood, and believe that this age child is "no sin of words"!

Pitman shook his head: "The tongue-cutting technique is skillful, and there are traces of usage, not a crime, but a dumb child servant. Most of them are the slaves of a big businessman. The big businessmen often do this. They use the dumb servant as a personal agent. People, because they can neither talk nor write, unless they encounter the extraordinary who knows the soul spell, they will never reveal the master's secret."

Gao Wen: "..."

He didn't know what he was going to say at the moment, and before he spoke, the little dumb who had cut his tongue had a movement. He suddenly stared at the breastplate of the Philip Knight, then grabbed the arm of the young knight. Pointing to somewhere on the breastplate, "ah" shouted.

Philip was at a loss, and the young and promising Cavalier had no experience dealing with children. He opened his hands and said that he did not understand the other person's meaning, but Gao Wen noticed the child's finger: "You Have you seen this emblem?"

"Ah...ah!" The little dumb nodded and pointed harder at something on Philip's breastplate.

That is the emblem of the Cecil family.

Gao Wen’s heart moved and instantly connected certain things, and immediately asked: “Where did you see it?!”

The little dumb was sloppy, his mouth was ambiguous, but he couldn’t communicate with others at all. He was so anxious. Finally, the child simply jumped to a nearby stone and stood on a high point and pointed at something. Direction, desperately plan.

Then he jumped down and grabbed Gao Wen’s hand and shook it hard.

Gao Wen: "Do you know where, let us go with you?"

The little dumb slammed his head and his face looked pleading.

Gao Wen and a few people around him exchanged a line of sight, and almost did not think about it, decided to keep up with the child.

Of course, he thinks a lot. For example, will this be a trap set by the cultists, such as whether the children in front of the eyes will be instructed and coerced to do so, after all, those cultists whose brains are broken can do anything. However, in any case, there are some dangers that must be faced, especially in the absence of such a law. It is the only choice to keep up with this child to see the specific situation.

They quickly left the main entrance of Tanzan town, followed the little boy behind the forest, and along the flow of the Baishui River, turned back south for a short walk, walking, Gao Wen suddenly realized that the child wants to bring himself Where to go

There is only one place that can be called a “landmark” on this road. It is the “Golin Mill” located in the southwest of Tanzan Town. It is a water mill with some years, next to the Baishui River. The industry of the Lesley family, but if it has been in disrepair for a long time this year, it has been abandoned. There are many unemployed people in the vicinity of the mill. However, the atmosphere in the town is so tense, and the nearby grasshopper thieves may have escaped far away.

Sure enough, after walking along the path in the woods, they heard the sound of the river slamming the river bank and then walked outside the forest. A water mill with the traditional style of Ansu appeared in front of several people.

"Ah!" The little dumb raised his finger in the direction of the mill, and pointed to the emblem on Philip's chest, indicating that the person with the emblem was in the mill.

A group of four people observed the surrounding terrain, and then each increased their vigilance and walked toward the mill.

When they had just reached halfway, they heard the sound of the Byron Knight coming from the mill: "You are back! You are back! How many times have I said! Leave here, go south, along the river Go to the family of Cecil, go find them for protection! Or just throw me out, throw them into the open space and burn them again! In short, don't be with me! Are you not only dumb, or blind?! ”
