The two scribes chased up from the path with thick parchment books in their arms. They stood at the intersection by the stream, searching the crowd with their eyes, and soon found Selina, who was half-kneeling on the stone bank of the stream.
The two scribes looked at Selina with some suspicion, and then glanced at Surdak who was soaking in the stream.
Surdak stood up from the stream. He washed away the dirt on his body, and the scars left by the burns on his body were more clearly revealed. The skin on his chest and back was full of blue-purple and flesh-pink scars, and some scars were connected to
They look like a centipede together. Although this is what it looks like after being healed by the Holy Light, it still looks a bit shocking.
When the children gathered around the stream saw the scars on Suldak's body, they all shouted in unison.
Selina took out a piece of loofah pulp from the wooden basin, and touched Suldak's shoulder with her cold hand, which was also trembling slightly.
Suldak saw the little girl under her skirt staring at him with round eyes, a look of fear on her face. He sat on a stone by the stream that had been washed extremely clean by the stream, pointing at a piece of his chest.
The dark purple scar asked Xigna, who was hiding between Selena's legs: "Xigna, are you afraid?"
The little girl pursed her mouth and shook her head vigorously. Her two little feet stepped in the water, looking like a poor little miaomiao. She looked at the two clerks with some worry.
Only then did Duck understand the source of the little girl's fear.
"What happened?" Suldak raised his head and asked the man dressed as a secretary.
Although he did not wear a knight's badge on his chest, two civil clerks from the city hall said very respectfully: "After conducting a population check this time, we learned that there are still some widows of fallen soldiers in Wall Village."
Hearing what the secretary said, Suldak immediately thought of the failure of the Battle of Moyunling. At least nearly ten thousand soldiers died in Moyunling. This may affect Tarapa, Osorno County, Bena Province.
He frowned and stared at the clerk, waiting for him to continue.
The clerk felt a little uncomfortable under Suldak's gaze. He coughed slightly to relieve his embarrassment, and then said according to the script: "According to the constitution of the Green Empire, the widows of these war dead must be married in March."
If you remarry within the year, we are hereby notifying all villages in the surrounding area of Halanza City."
The two clerks glanced at the crowd in unison, but they did not find the person they were looking for. They could only bite the bullet and said: "But after our investigation, we found that Ms. Selina's husband died three years ago.
An epidemic in winter means that Ms. Selena must remarry."
They tried to get closer to Selena again. Although Selena had no expression on her face, Suldak could feel her breathing becoming a little rapid. The hands holding the loofah pulp almost dug their nails into the flesh, and her face
Although her expression seemed calm, her body actually betrayed her. Her body was even trembling.
Surdak glanced at the clerk doubtfully, and then asked him: "Can't you see me?"
His eyes were as sharp as knives. The warrior who came down from the battlefield had been baptized with blood and had seen real death. He had the coercion of a strong man on his body.
"Huh?" The two clerks responded a little slowly, because this was obviously inconsistent with the information they had learned.
"I mean you can't see me? I...Knight Surdak is standing in front of you, but you turn a blind eye to me, and you still want to take her away in front of me?" He picked up the stone from the stone.
He stood up suddenly, puffed up his chest and said to the clerk.
"Me!" Suldak grinned and pointed to the scar on his shoulder. That scar was probably the only scar left on the battlefield in the Warsaw plane. The other burns were not left on the battlefield.
He felt that he could not point to the wrong place, so he clicked on the scar three times before saying: "...Fought bloody battles on the plane of Warsaw, you can see what those evil spirits left on me, but
What are you doing behind the scenes?"
At this time, the two scribes finally understood and asked weakly: "Knight Suldak, you mean... you are planning to marry Ms. Selina?"
"Can't you see this?" Surdak looked dissatisfied and snorted.
He quickly bent down and gave a salute, saying repeatedly: "Sorry, our investigation was not sufficient this time. Please forgive me for the trouble it has caused you!"
Some surrounding villagers came to watch when they saw that the secretary who came from Helensa City took the initiative to admit that it was a mistake in his work. No matter what the truth was, it was the knight Surdak in his village who took the lead.
There was an uproar immediately, and they even felt that the two secretaries, who were usually very proud, were at a loss. This should be the biggest victory in the history of Wall Village.
The two secretaries stood at the intersection and saw that the villagers were also excited and immediately realized that they should leave here.
Then he left in a hurry amidst the boos of the surrounding villagers. Clerks who do census work are probably the most difficult group of people to work in the city hall. In other words, this is a job that requires a certain mass base.
Just a good job.
Surdak stood in the middle of the crowd, shirtless, and stretched out his hand to stop the boos of the villagers. He felt that the two scribes should still show the most basic respect. After all, they represent the governor of the city of Helensa.
grown ups.
At this time, Selena was still half-kneeling by the stream, with her noble and snow-white neck drooping like a swan. She knelt there with her head lowered and her breasts in her arms. The stream on the bank had already soaked her linen skirt, which made her long skirt tight.
Wrapping her round legs tightly, the little girl stood beside her holding the hem of her skirt, looking at the scene in front of her with a confused expression, while the beautiful woman half-kneeling on the ground seemed to have exhausted all her
With her strength, she hugged the little girl with one hand, her originally cold face already covered with tears.
The old village chief took two deep puffs of cigarette and sighed quietly under the chestnut tree nearby: "This is also a woman who has a hard life."
From the beginning to the end of this incident, the old village chief sat silently under the chestnut tree, neither blocking nor trying to deal with it, which was very contrary to his usual code of conduct.
Surdak turned around and put on the leather armor, then walked to the stream, stretched out his hand to pull up Selina who was kneeling by the stream, and in full view of everyone, separated the crowd by the stream and walked out.
Bringing Selena back to the door of her house that looked more like a dilapidated house, Suldak looked at Selena with some embarrassment, as if she would not refuse even if he pulled her into the stone house...
…
He pondered for a moment, then took a deep breath, extinguished the anxious thoughts in his heart, and said to the beautiful woman in front of him who kept her head lowered: "They probably won't come for a while..."
The people Surdak refers to are the two scribes.
Selena was shocked and looked up at Suldak in a panic.
Surdak showed a helpless smile: "I didn't say that I should ignore you..., I just want to say that we should give each other some time so that we can get to know each other well. After all, we will have to
There is a long way to go, and I still have to convince old Sheila and Natasha. You know the situation of my family, and their ideas are also very important to me..."
Seeing Suldak's figure about to disappear on the village road, Selina, who was standing at the door of her house, raised her neck slightly.
A light of hope seemed to rise in her beautiful but cold eyes, and her slightly sexy lips also raised a slight upward arc.
