Chapter 22 Brother and sister captured

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 The female lord mainly listened to Morse's story about his previous battle with the savages.

According to Morse, Marquis Cullen brought people into the mountains just to recover those guys above, so he didn't bring too many supplies.

However, they did not return until the afternoon of the next day. Morse realized that they might have encountered some trouble, but at that time he was relatively optimistic.

After all, Marquis Cullen brought an army of 10,000 troops this time, and they were all elites from various families. They were considered to be strong soldiers and horses, and their opponents were only some savages in the mountains.

Morse guessed that they might have been attacked by the savages on the way, and after winning easily, they simply chased the savages all the way to their lair.

Until another day passed, and there was still no news from Marquis Cullen, Morse finally became anxious.

One hundred people were left behind at Solid Stone Castle, and another two hundred men were escorted into the mountains to search for the army with a batch of food and supplies.

However, they had only walked for half a day when they ran into the savages, whose combat effectiveness had not changed much from before. Morse quickly repelled their first wave of attacks.

But relying on their familiarity with the terrain and their numerical advantage, the savages launched a second and third wave of attacks.

Morse's side was becoming increasingly difficult to cope with. After losing about thirty men and being hit by an arrow in his arm, Morse had to throw away some food, exit the Dragon Crest Mountains, and return to Solid Rock Castle.

The savages did not chase them out, and Morse speculated that their manpower might not be particularly large.

In addition, there was still a large army besieging Marquis Cullen, so Morse hoped that Yin Leiya could lead people into the mountain immediately.

The female lord was about to agree, but then she heard Du Lun cough next to her, so she changed her mind and asked, "Where's Big Hand? Where is he now?"

Morse didn't understand why Yin Leiya cared so much about the new groom, but he still said patiently.

"I heard Lord Hells say that he could understand the words of the savages, so I asked him to help interrogate the imprisoned savages.

"But in the end, the boy said that his mother was not from the same tribe as the captured savages, and he couldn't understand what those people were talking about."

"Do the languages ​​used by the savage tribes differ from each other?" The female lord was surprised, "Then how did they get together this time?"

"I don't know, and now is not the time to care about such things."

Miss Rabbit nodded, "No matter what, he knows more about Longcrest Mountain and the savages inside than we do. I still plan to take him with me when I go into the mountain this time. In addition, Sir Morse, please lend me ten more."

captive."

"Why do you want prisoners? Those savages can't communicate with us at all. They are no different from wild beasts. Moreover, they are wild and untamed and are very dishonest. Be careful to cause trouble for you on the road."

Having said that, Morse quickly sent someone to pick out ten prisoners and bring them to him.

The female lord took a quick look and found that all of them looked unruly and unruly. One of them took advantage of Miss Rabbit when she was brought in and spat at her.

Fortunately, the female lord reacted quickly enough and ducked sideways in advance.

Then the girl took out the hand of judgment from her waist, pointed at the wooden fence next to the savage and fired a shot.

The huge roar and the flames coming out of the gun barrel startled the savages. The female savage who had spat at the female lord before was even more stunned.

Then she touched her neck and found a wet patch there. She brought her palm to her eyes and saw that it was her own blood.

She turned to look at the wooden fence on the side. It had been beaten to pieces, and the flying wood chips scratched the skin of her neck.

Fortunately, the injury was not serious and there was no danger after being bandaged.

But the way the savages looked at the female lord was different, as if they were sizing up a ferocious beast, and no one dared to make any small moves anymore.

At the same time, Morse, who was immersed in anxiety and uneasiness on the other side, was shocked when he witnessed this scene and opened his mouth to praise.

"You are worthy of being the champion of the tournament. With Sir Yin Leya taking action, I believe we can successfully rescue the Marquis and the others this time!"

The female lord skillfully inserted the duel pistol back into the wallet at her waist and said sternly, "I already understand the situation on your side. Let's rest here for half a day and go into the mountains early tomorrow morning."

Soon the ten savages were taken down again and locked in a cell alone.

The so-called cell was actually just a fence surrounded by a few sharpened pieces of wood. It was not impossible to climb out with the skill of those savages.

So the guards put shackles on them and tied them with chains to a thick wooden pillar in the center of the cell.

In addition, archers have been arranged to keep an eye on their actions, and so far there have been no major troubles.

The ten savages didn't know whether it was because they knew they couldn't escape, or they were frightened by the judgmental hand in the hands of the female lord in the afternoon, so they all remained silent after they came back.

Everyone looked listless, and it was not until nightfall that two savages began to whisper to each other.

Both of them came from a tribe called Mist Snakes, and they were brother and sister. The female wildling among them was the one who spat at the female lord before.

She asked her brother Red Beard, "Did you see it?"

"what did you see?"

"That black iron pipe, that terrible woman put thunder and fire inside."

"I don't think the nobles in the Western Region are so capable. We have fought against them before, and they only bullied us because their equipment and weapons were better than ours, and they had more people than us." Red Beard said.

"That female noble is different, and she seems to be the leader of the new army. What do you think he wants to do by singling us out? Is he planning to kill us to boost the morale of her men?"

"I don't know." Redbeard's expression was a little depressed. He considered himself a warrior and was not afraid of death. However, when this moment really came, he found that he was not as brave as he thought.

As if aware of her brother's nervousness and uneasiness, the female savage stretched out her arms and hugged the latter, pressing the red-bearded head against her chest.

"I said we should hold the wedding before going down the mountain, but you told me to wait until we go back. Now it's fine, we can't go back.

"Tell me honestly, are you still obsessed with that bitch Shana? Did you secretly sleep with her behind my back?"

"What's the point of talking about this now?" Redbeard said angrily, "Our tribe is about to win, but we can't wait until that day comes."
