Early the next morning, Jia Zhengjin was sleeping soundly.
There seemed to be a commotion outside.
"Kean!" Tina gently shook her husband beside her.
"What?" Being woken up from his sweet dream, Jia Zhengjin felt quite depressed.
"Listen, what's going on outside?" Tina whispered.
Yawning lazily, Jia Zhengjin raised his ears and listened carefully. There seemed to be someone arguing outside. But it was far away from here, so the sound was not loud.
"Your ears are quite pointed," he turned around and said to Tina with a smile, while reaching out to gently comb her hair. "It's just a quarrel. It's normal. In this camp with tens of millions of people, nothing like this happens.
It's strange. Leave him alone and sleep for a while! After saying that, he put his arms around his wife and continued sleeping.
But Tina pushed him away gently: "Why don't you go and take a look? I just seemed to hear your name being called!"
"Really?" Jia Zhengjin was actually reluctant to get up. He was exhausted before and really wanted to have a good rest. "Did you hear wrongly?"
"Really!" Tina said softly, "Why don't you go and take a look first! What if there is something important?"
Seeing his wife say this, Jia Zhengjin had to give up the idea of sleeping in: "Okay!"
He sat up reluctantly, suddenly lifted the quilt in a mischievous manner, and then threw himself on his wife with a smile and stretched out his hands to scratch her.
This sudden "attack" caught Tina off guard. She tried her best to hide, but her opponent was nowhere to be found. As a result, she was left gasping for breath and almost died of laughter.
After finally begging for mercy, Jia Zhengjin finally let go. She stretched out her hand and hit him lightly, and said half-blaming and half-coquettishly: "What are you doing? Get up quickly!"
"Okay, okay!" Jia Zhengjin quickly got dressed and got up, "Then you can continue to sleep for a while."
"Um!"
After neatly dressing up and leaving his private tent, Jia Zhengjin looked at the noisy place in the distance with confusion as the soldiers stationed outside saluted him: "What's going on? What's going on over there?"
"Report to Lord Keen!" A female general came over immediately, "It seems that someone wanted to see you, but was stopped by the checkpoint guard."
"Someone wants to see me? Then let him come!" Jia Zhengjin frowned and said, "Why are you stopping me?"
"Because you and Mrs. Tina are still resting, the checkpoint guards dare not disturb you at will!" the female general said, "In addition, the identity of the person asking to see you is somewhat..."
"What's your identity?" Jia Zhengjin didn't like to talk in the middle of the sentence.
"It's just that his status is too low and he is not worthy of meeting the Lord in person!" the female general answered cautiously.
"What do you mean?" A look of displeasure appeared on Jia Zhengjin's face, "What time is it now? Those who can stand here together to fight against the Sea Clan are our companions! Who has a low and noble status and still has time to engage in class antagonism?"
"But if you don't set rules and let anyone who wants to see you come over, then you won't be able to rest quietly!" the female general said quickly.
"That's true..." Jia Zhengjin understood the reason why they did this, "But it also depends on the reason. If you just want to see me, say hello and chat with me, or ask me to do something, then this
I just stopped him if someone stopped me. But what if there is something important? By the way, did you ask what the reason was?"
"Lord Keen, he was stopped by the checkpoint guards. We don't know the truth here!" the female general replied in a low voice.
"Okay!" Jia Zhengjin thought it was right. No one had been released. How would they know if they were guarding near the tent. Thinking of this, he immediately said to her, "I will go and see for myself. You continue to guard the area and don't let anyone disturb you."
Tina rest."
"Yes!!" The female general breathed a sigh of relief. Talking to Jia Zhengjin just now made her feel endless pressure. After all, this person in front of her has stepped into the realm of gods and is very likely to become a legendary figure in the future! This only exists in
Existence in fairy tales!
Jia Zhengjin didn't know that he was putting so much pressure on the other party, so he walked forward slowly and soon arrived near the checkpoint.
Sure enough, the guard soldiers on the other side of the checkpoint were fully armed and blocking the intersection, confronting a young swordsman who looked a little slovenly, wearing tattered leather armor and a rusty iron sword hanging from his waist.
Of course the young swordsman didn't want to conflict with the soldiers, so he kept trying to persuade them to let him go.
However, the soldiers guarding the checkpoint had a cold look on their faces and ordered them to leave quickly in a stern tone.
The young swordsman didn't want to give up, so he quarreled with the soldiers as he talked, but it was only in words. After all, everyone now understood that the enemy of the coalition was the Sea Tribe, and internal strife was a serious crime.
The quarrel has attracted countless attention, and a large number of coalition forces have been awakened. Mercenaries, adventurers, rebels, etc. who have come to help are all watching.
Probably because the scene was getting bigger and bigger, the gate guards wanted to end the dispute as soon as possible to avoid causing bad effects and making the higher-ups blame them. Therefore, they began to work hard to disperse the crowd, and at the same time, they were preparing to drive away the young swordsman more forcefully.
Seeing this situation, Jia Zhengjin immediately stepped forward and asked, "What's going on?"
"Lord Keen!!" As soon as he appeared, the down-and-out young swordsman immediately shouted with joy. At the same time, the onlookers who were driven away by the soldiers immediately stopped and looked here excitedly.
"Lord Keen!" When the soldiers guarding the checkpoint saw him coming out, they immediately said, "I'm sorry to disturb your rest. We will disperse these people immediately! Come here! Hurry up and drive them away!"
"Wait!" Seeing the checkpoint soldier preparing to take action, Jia Zhengjin quickly stopped him, "Listen to what he wants to say first, don't chase people away indiscriminately!"
"As expected of Lord Keen!"
"Lord Keen is so generous!"
"That's right! Otherwise, how could it be Lord Keen?"
…
The members of the onlookers' coalition forces immediately became excited and talked among themselves.
Nowadays, almost anything he says will be flattered. Jia Zhengjin finally understands what it is like for people who enjoy privileges. He automatically blocked these sounds and looked carefully at the down-and-out swordsman in front of him.
"Lord Keen," the captain of the pass guard soldier came over and whispered, "This man is a run-down mercenary from our Charman Empire, and he was born a slave! He was born a slave, but because of his luck and meritorious service, he was rewarded and left.
He was a slave and later became a mercenary. It was difficult for him to support himself. With his lowly status, you don’t need to pay attention to him..."
"I was indeed born a slave. Is that something I can decide?" The down-and-out swordsman said angrily after hearing this, "I got rid of this status through my own efforts, why do you still look down on me? Also, yesterday, the Magic Guild Zhao
Tell the entire army that we are looking for someone who can solve Lord Keen’s riddle. There is no rule that people with slave backgrounds cannot participate! I know the answer to this question, why can’t I meet Lord Keen?”
"Oh? Do you know the answer to this question?" Jia Zhengjin looked at him curiously. In fact, he didn't have much hope in his heart. But at least he wanted to listen.
