Chapter 700: The House of the Horse

The city of Samos, the capital of the Donmat Empire.

Compared to the small cities we passed through before, they are not even a tiny bit larger.

Jia Zhengjin has been to Tanzania, the capital of the Xiongfeng Empire, and Bolivia, the capital of the Principality of Hales. However, they are both small and medium-sized countries, and Samos City is larger and more prosperous than these two capital cities.

The main reason is probably the existence of the Knights Templar.

As the second largest force in the Light camp, its reputation among the people is second only to the Church of Light. Therefore, there is an endless stream of pilgrims coming here. Passengers and businessmen are also willing to stay and rest for a few days to appreciate the unique religious atmosphere here.

.

Arriving at the entrance to Samos City, Olivia felt very nervous when faced with the city guards checking passers-by.

She was not worried about "Lord Payton" in front of her, but she didn't know what kind of serious situation would happen after the soldiers discovered the true identity of "Lord Payton"! Once the two sides started fighting, would the strong men in the city be able to do it in time?

If we arrive, can we stop "Lord Peyton" from turning this place into a world of the undead?

And when the time comes, should I assist these soldiers? But my strength is limited, and I estimate that I will not pose any threat to "Lord Payton", so should I help "Lord Payton" in turn to gain trust and stay?

Will his side continue to convey news and location to the outside world?

Compared to Olivia, who had complicated thoughts, Jia Zhengjin walked to the front like a normal person.

What makes Olivia secretly angry is that these soldiers couldn't recognize the mastermind who stole the Hero's Eye in person. They just casually glanced at the mercenary badge on his chest and let him go!

Damn soldiers! Has it been so long that the magician in Maltis City hasn’t transmitted the image of “Lord Peyton” robbing the museum? Hasn’t the Templar Knights learned his true identity yet? No.

Should he have been informed that day and then issued a city-wide wanted notice?

"Olivia?" Jia Zhengjin, who had already entered the city, saw that his newly recruited followers had not yet followed, so he turned around and called out.

"Yes!" Although Olivia was very angry at these blind soldiers, but now that this person has entered Samos City, it will be difficult to fly! She can notify the Knights Templar at any time and ask their strong men to take action. Here

It is the headquarters of the Knights Templar, and the strongest members of the Knights are here!

Jia Zhengjin walked leisurely and contentedly in front, while Olivia followed behind intently, leading two dumb eagles to follow suit.

The two soon arrived at a luxurious hotel in the city, named "Bima's House".

Of course Jia Zhengjin knew that the Baima was a good livestock for transportation. But there was not even a Baima in this luxury hotel, so why was it called such an unpleasant name?

When he asked this question, the shop owner in front of the counter immediately laughed: "Many people have asked this question. In fact, the reason why it is called the Bama House is because my father came here alone more than 30 years ago.

In this city, he had nothing on his body at that time, only an old and skinny ball horse. The ball horse was all his property and his childhood playmate. My father was hungry for many days and could not get food.

He was dying but was unwilling to kill his playmate to satisfy his hunger. Just when he fainted from hunger, he woke up but the old poor horse was missing. Later..."

"What happened next?" Before Jia Zhengjin could speak, Olivia couldn't help but asked curiously.

Jia Zhengjin glanced sideways at her and continued to look directly at the shop owner with a smile.

The shop owner sighed: "Later, a kind-hearted aristocratic man came to my father with a lot of money. He said that he was walking in a hurry when he went out today, so he didn't pay attention to the road conditions in front of him. As a result, the horned dragon galloped and killed a group of people.

A Bah horse was seriously injured after being hit by a collision. The noble man originally thought that an old and thin Bah horse was not a big deal. But after coming down, he saw that although the Bah horse was seriously injured, he insisted on standing up and said:

There was a fruit he found somewhere in his mouth, and he was staggering forward. It is said that the noble man even saw tears in Baima's eyes at that time!"

"How is that possible?" Olivia's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief on her face.

"Yes!" the shop owner nodded and said, "No one believes that the Baima can shed tears, let alone that it can bring food for its owner who is about to starve to death. The noble man was also surprised when he saw it, so he followed the Baima.

I walked forward step by step, and finally came to my father who was about to starve to death. The horse failed to reach it, and exhausted all its strength and finally died, unable to bring the fruit to my father. It is said that the way it looked at the noble man at that time

, full of pleading. The noble man was deeply moved, so he took out a lot of money and asked his servants to buy a lot of food and delivered it to my father in person. He confessed that he had killed his poor horse while riding a horned dragon. In order to express his apology,

, specially made compensation. At the same time, he also informed the Baima in detail about what happened along the way. How much does a Baima cost? The compensation given by the noble master was hundreds of times its own value! My father finally did not starve to death, and

He became a rich man. But he lost his best partner and his best friend. He buried the Baima underground himself, then built this hotel in this place and named it the Baima House.

, to commemorate his old partner. I have heard my father mention this story since I was a child, and even before he died of illness, he even asked me to bury him and the Baima together..."

"What a touching story!" Olivia burst into tears after hearing it.

Jia Zhengjin didn't really believe it. He felt that this was just a gimmick for the shop owner to make money. If what he said was true, the corpses of his father and Baima were walking under the ground of this hotel. Isn't this disrespectful to his own father? Even if it was him.

Isn't it inappropriate for my father's request?

It's probably a fabricated, fairy-tale-like false story. And Jia Zhengjin doesn't think any brainless aristocrat would pay hundreds of times more than its own value for a poor horse that's about to die of old age! Even if it's too much money,

, then you wouldn’t do such a stupid thing, would you?

Seeing that Olivia really believed it, she even burst into tears. Jia Zhengjin thought to herself, what a woman! Even a guard like her, with a relatively strong personality, can easily be deceived by such a touching story, and she has too much sympathy!

"Boss, the story is very touching!" Jia Zhengjin said calmly, "Book two rooms for us, and we want the best one!"

"Unfortunately!" The shop owner smiled and shook his head. "Now our shop only has one room, and all the hotels in the city are probably full! These two days are the days when the Lord of the Temple prays to the Holy Angels. People from all over the mainland

Tourists are all gathering here, wanting to see the miracle! Aren’t you two husband and wife?”

"Don't dare! I am a follower of Lord Payne!" Olivia hurriedly explained.

"Since we are followers, why do we need two rooms?" the shop owner said with a smile, "If you two don't want it, someone will probably take this room soon!"
