Chapter 1069 The chameleon sneaking into the castle
Of course, Liu Xing was not actually in a coma for several days, he just "slept" for a few hours.
"So Brother Black Horse, did Duke Gundogan entrust you with something when he sent you away from the castle?" Liu Xing couldn't help but ask.
After all, he and his team worked hard and risked their lives to help the dark horse, and the purpose was to get the Duke's Medal that might be on the dark horse.
Unfortunately, in the expectant gazes of Liu Xing and the other three, Dark Horse shook his head and said: "You guys are thinking too much. Gundogan didn't give me anything before sending me away from the castle, because the reason why he asked me to leave was
The castle just doesn’t want me to get involved in what’s about to happen in the castle... To put it simply, I was released this time by Gundogan.”
Having said this, Hei Ma let out a long sigh, and Liu Xing and the other three could clearly see the loneliness and depression on Hei Ma's face.
Looking in the direction of the castle, Dark Horse said seriously: "Listen to my advice, if you still want to live, don't go back to the castle, because the castle has become a trap now, and Gundogan's death is the best.
Proof, and if I hadn’t left the castle at that time, I’m afraid I would have followed Gundogan’s footsteps!”
Hearing what Dark Horse said, Liu Xing and the others raised their eyebrows and were shocked, because Dark Horse can be regarded as a mythical creature after all, and its strength is also very good, at least similar to that of elite-level deep divers. However, they didn't even dare to treat it.
In the castle, it means that there may be a more powerful existence in the castle.
Following the usual routine of Cthulhu group games, Liu Xing and the other three quickly guessed who the powerful being in the castle would be.
That's right, that's the chameleon who was the first to leave the forest!
"Brother Dark Horse, if we guessed correctly, that chameleon has disguised itself as someone and sneaked into the castle, and is it the one who wants to harm you and Duke Gundogan?" Li Hanxing said with a frown.
Dark Horse nodded, sighed again and said: "Yes, that's it, and it's a long story. If you don't mind, I can have a good talk with you, so that I can help you decide.
Do you want to go back to the castle?"
Liu Xing and the other three looked at each other and quickly reached a consensus - listen.
Anyway, it still takes more than two hours to get back to the castle from the forest, so it’s not a bad idea to listen to Dark Horse’s stories along the way and learn about the real behind-the-scenes BOSS Chameleon of this special module.
After all, Liu Xing and others would not give up on Alice who was already in the castle, so even if the castle had turned into a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, he and his group had to go back.
What's more, now that there is a dark horse present, Liu Xing and others cannot let the dark horse explore the way in front first, while the three of them open a secret room in the back to discuss the problem.
Ever since, Dark Horse began to talk about it when he left the forest.
After the Wolf King left the forest, Dark Horse felt that there was no point in staying in the forest, because it didn't want to try what it would become after being hit by the flame giant lizard's ability. After all, it fought with the Wolf King.
After such a long time, the most you can get is a few flesh injuries that won't hurt your muscles or bones, but if you are directly hit by the flame giant lizard's attack, then no matter how lucky you are, you will still have to lose one or two parts.
So after thinking for a few days, Dark Horse also chose to leave the forest.
After leaving the forest, Black Horse originally wanted to go back to his original home - a horse farm more than a hundred kilometers away from the forest. However, after walking for a while, Black Horse chose to give up because that horse farm was dedicated to breeding draft horses.
Yes, Dark Horse feels that he can no longer get along with his former relatives and friends, and it is impossible for the owner of the racecourse to let him eat and drink in the racecourse in peace.
So in order to avoid trouble, Dark Horse chose to do the opposite and prepared to find a hidden valley to live a secluded life.
As a result, Dark Horse found his ideal retirement place within a few days, but at the same time he also met the young Gundogan.
At this time, Gundogan has not inherited his father's title, but only holds the title of knight.
The reason why Gundogan appeared in that hidden valley was because his second brother wanted to do harm to him.
Because the title inheritance mechanism in this special world is very strange, Gundogan, the youngest among the siblings, was highly appreciated by his father because he was smart and smart since he was a child. Therefore, after Gundogan's father became seriously ill, there were people in the family.
Claiming that Gundogan will inherit the title.
As a result, Field, Gundogan's second brother, who believed that he should inherit the title, decided to take the first step to eliminate this potential threat to Gundogan.
Therefore, Field pretended to invite his brothers and sisters to participate in the hunt, and then asked his men to release a brown bear at the right time, forcing everyone to flee. This made it easier for Field to lead his men to attack Gundogan.
Fortunately, Gundogan was very good at riding, and he had a very good relationship with his mount. They had reached the point of being connected with each other, so Gundogan escaped the attack of his second brother, but Gundogan's mount had already
He was seriously injured, and after being forced to bring Gundogan to this valley, he could no longer move. He was losing a lot of air and taking in less air.
Compared with wild animals such as flame monitors, wolf kings and chameleons, the black horse is originally an ordinary domestic draft horse, so it has deeper feelings for humans. Therefore, when the black horse saw Gundogan crying while holding his mount,
At that time, Dark Horse felt that Gundogan was a good person.
Especially before Gundogan's mount died, he intermittently asked the dark horse to help his master. This also made the dark horse feel that Gundogan was a good human being. Unfortunately, as the chosen horse, how could the dark horse give him a favor?
What about ordinary humans as mounts?
Just when Dark Horse refused and was about to leave the valley and find another place to live in seclusion, Field came here with his men and began to attack Dark Horse and Gundogan without saying a word.
Although Dark Horse is very skilled, it is limited to close combat, and Dark Horse's own defense is too strong, so when faced with the powerful bows and crossbows of Field and his men, Dark Horse had to give in, and also realized that he looked like
We were already in a very dangerous situation, because there was only one entrance and exit to this valley, and this entrance was tightly blocked by Field and his men.
In desperation, Dark Horse could only choose to compromise and let Gundogan help him attract firepower. Unexpectedly, Gundogan actually expressed his intention to fight to the death with Field and his team to avenge his mount.
The next plot was a bit bloody. Although it was the first time for Gundogan and Dark Horse to cooperate, they showed a very tacit understanding. Although they suffered some injuries in the end, they still succeeded in killing Field and his men.
.
After fighting side by side this time, Dark Horse became friends with Gundogan. Yes, because Dark Horse accidentally revealed the fact that he could talk at the end of the battle, Gundogan was shocked and began to regard Dark Horse as
He was treated by one person, so Dark Horse decided to temporarily hang out with Gundogan, eating and drinking, which could be regarded as letting Gundogan repay his life-saving grace.
In this way, Dark Horse and Gundogan became friends of life and death.
By the way, the "foreigners" who followed Gundogan to the battlefield were indeed Oda Nobunaga, as well as some soy sauce gangsters who were just here to make up the numbers, and Dark Horse also admitted that Oda Nobunaga gave Gundogan a lot of help
, so Gundogan can always win.
After the war, Gundogan also gave a horseshoe to Oda Nobunaga!
Yes, this horseshoe is the treasure that the public faction took away from Nagoya Castle.
This horseshoe was actually obtained by Gundogan from a wandering businessman a long time ago. The wandering businessman claimed that this horseshoe had been blessed by the goddess of luck, so the user used a matching small hammer to strike the horseshoe.
After that, this horseshoe can make the user's luck very good.
However, this horseshoe only has three matching small hammers, and each small hammer will directly shatter after hitting the horseshoe. Other than that, other things cannot knock this horseshoe, so this means
This horseshoe can only be used three times. Of course, the most important thing is that Oda Nobunaga was "walking in a hurry" at the time, so Gundogan did not have time to hand over a small hammer that he accidentally dropped in the cabinet to Oda Nobunaga.
Oda Nobunaga has disappeared.
After hearing this, Liu Xing realized why Tokugawa Ieyasu chose to seal the horseshoe underground in Nagoya City after getting the horseshoe. It turned out to be because the two small hammers brought out by Oda Nobunaga had been destroyed.
He and Toyotomi Hideyoshi used it.
And this is also the reason why members of the public faction came back here with the horseshoe.
Back to the topic.
Although Gundogan won that war, Dark Horse discovered traces of Chameleon more than once during this period and realized that Chameleon seemed to be planning a terrible conspiracy.
So after the war ended, Dark Horse had a good discussion with Gundogan and decided to come back and wait and see what happened, preparing for Chameleon's next plan.
As a result, what neither Dark Horse nor Gundogan expected was that Chameleon's next plan was to attack Gundogan!
That's right, the reason why Gundogan died suddenly was because the chameleon got into the castle!
Although the chameleon's ability can transform into other people without any flaws, it itself has a big flaw, that is, a trace of the chameleon's scent will remain on its path of action.
Although this smell is very light, the human nose cannot distinguish it at all, and the smell will disappear completely soon, but for the dark horse who once spent some time with the chameleon in the forest, he can still detect the chameleon.
The smell is emitted, especially when the chameleon stays in the castle for a long time.
Realizing that something was wrong, Dark Horse notified Gundogan as soon as possible, but it was already too late. Gundogan discovered that he had been poisoned by an incurable poison.
Therefore, Gundogan could only release Dark Horse from the castle overnight while he was still able to move normally, because Gundogan knew very well that after Chameleon got rid of him, he would most likely come to trouble Black Horse immediately.
As for why Chameleon attacked Gundogan, both Gundogan and Dark Horse agreed that it must be because of the Duke's Medal.
To put it simply, the chameleon wants to become a duke, and then maybe use this as a springboard to become a king!
"So, Dark Horse, who do you think the chameleon has become in the castle now?" Sun Huiwen asked.
Dark Horse shook his head and said helplessly: "It happened suddenly. When I discovered that Chameleon had sneaked into the castle, something happened to Gundogan within a few days, so I didn't have time to find out who Chameleon was; but I could find opportunities.
There are not many people who poisoned Gundogan, so the scope can be narrowed down to the five Zum brothers and the six housekeepers, because they are the only ones in the castle who can meet Gundogan one-on-one and sit down to drink.
A cup of tea, some snacks or something."
"Wait a minute." Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and said with some confusion: "Didn't Green and Yak come to the castle after Duke Gundogan passed away? They didn't mention that they had met Duke Gundogan before."
Hearing what Liu Xing said, Dark Horse couldn't help but stop and said: "What? So Green and Yak are very problematic, because they secretly visited the castle once before Gundogan's accident, and it was also in
It was only after they came to the castle that I noticed the scent of the chameleon, but after Yak and Green left, the smell continued to appear in the castle, so I did not list Yak and Green as key suspects."
This is a bit interesting.
Liu Xing touched his chin and said seriously: "In this way, there is indeed a problem with Yake and Green, but it is also very likely that the chameleon wants to divert trouble to the east, so he specially met Yake and Green.
Duke Gundogan took action just to make us doubt Yak and Green. As for why Yak and Green didn't mention this matter, maybe they were worried that Zum would use the topic to their advantage. But having said that, Duke Gundogan had
The reason why the knighthood medals are hidden in various places is probably Duke Gundogan’s own idea.”
"Yes, because Gundogan and I analyzed it carefully and believed that the goal of Chameleon's trip was the Duke's Medal, so Gundogan decided to hide all the medals in his hand and left some clues to
The five Zums, if the five Zums are not replaced by Chameleon, then they will all have the opportunity to get any knighthood medal." Dark Horse answered affirmatively.
