Although Crowe did not notice that there was a pursuer behind him, he seemed to feel that the pursuer was always following him and never far away. The massive blood loss made Crowe about to pass out. Fortunately, as time continued to pass, his steps staggered.
The shadow of Crowe saw the giant rat city on the slope.
Crow was filled with joy, gritted his teeth, and ran towards the city gate with all his last strength. He finally passed out at the city gate and was discovered by the guard guarding the gate.
Dark night, inside the city lord's mansion.
Kadi looked at Crow lying on the bed with a worried look. At this time, Crow's left hand had disappeared and his left shoulder was bandaged.
When he was discovered by the guards and sent back to the city lord's palace, Crowe was on the verge of danger, unconscious and dying. In order to stabilize Crowe's injury, Kadi even fed Crowe the entire Bode family's jade bamboo shoot inventory, and then reluctantly
Crowe's life was saved, but Crowe's left arm was completely destroyed.
Cardy was puzzled as to who could injure Crowe like this. At first, Cardy placed his suspicions on Anlu of the Aiko family and Pisa of the Kurt family. However, according to the investigation, those two people had no idea what they were doing today.
We haven't left Giant Rat City, so we can't find the reason for Crow's injury now. We can only wait for Crow to wake up and hear it from his own mouth.
At this time, Crowe's face was covered in cold sweat, as if he had a nightmare, his eyes were closed tightly, and he slowly shook his head.
Suddenly, Crowe seemed to have dreamed of something terrible. He woke up in an instant, his eyes wide open, and he was breathing heavily.
Kadi, who was next to him, was a little surprised when he found out that Crowe had woken up. Then he noticed that Crowe's expression was not right, and said worriedly: "Crowe! What's wrong with you?"
Kadi's words caught Crowe's attention. Crowe's eyes moved slowly and saw Kadi next to him.
"Uncle Cady! It's you! It's okay, I just had a nightmare that someone was chasing me!" Crowe said weakly.
"Tell me what happened? Who hurt you like this? What have you experienced?" Kadi said seriously.
"Sneak attack! Gilloland and I suffered a sneak attack outside the Ash Canyon!" Crowe said hastily after hearing Cardy's inquiry.
"Who is it?"
"Yes, the Aike family! The Aike family set up an ambush outside the Gray Earth Canyon. The transfer of Badian to the Gray Earth Canyon was a scam. Their purpose was to lure me to the Gray Earth Canyon and then conduct an ambush!" Received a sneak attack!
Finally, Crowe figured everything out. It was all a scam, and that guy Anlu actually used Badian as bait to lure him.
"But Anlu and Pisa have not left the city today, so who can hurt you? Could it be that the two of them invited help from Helan City?" Kadi asked doubtfully.
"No! It's not! What injured me like this was an arrow, a huge iron arrow. I suspect this is a powerful weapon made by the Aiko family, which is enough to kill high-ranking knights! When Guillory and I were on the carriage, we were shot
It was a sneak attack. I didn't even have time to react before these vicious arrows flew over! Uncle Card, you have to be careful. You must be careful of being sneak attacked by the Aike family!" Crowe said weakly.
"Okay! I understand. You are seriously injured and it may take a long time to fully recover. You rest first and I won't disturb you anymore!"
Kadi said softly, turned and left the room.
At this time, the Aiko family also received news that Crowe was seriously injured and dying, and was found by the guards after he passed out in front of the city gate.
Anlu was very surprised by Crowe's condition. He didn't know who could hurt Crowe, a high-level knight, like this.
At this time, Anlu was both happy and worried. He was happy because Crowe, who was at odds with him, had an extremely miserable end, but he was worried because being able to hurt Crowe like this meant that he would not be the opponent of the murderer.
Once he confronts him, his fate will probably be no better than Crowe's today.
Like the Aike family, the Kurt family also received accurate information shortly before Crowe passed out at the city gate.
Pisa, the head of the Kurt family, is currently sitting at the table, tapping his index finger on the table, lost in thought. Crowe's serious injury gave Pisa some thoughts that he shouldn't have.
"Come here!" Pisa shouted to the guard.
Pisa felt that he should meet with Anlu now. Some of his ideas could only be realized by uniting with Anlu.
At around twelve o'clock in the night, the side door of the Aiko family's courtyard was slowly opened, and several figures entered the interior of the Aike family under the guidance of the person who opened the door.
"Pisa! Why are you looking for me so late? Why can't we talk about it during the day?" Anlu frowned and looked at Pisa sitting on his left.
"Haha! Chief Anlu, please forgive me. After all, it would be better for fewer people to know about what we are going to talk about next. In order to avoid being discovered, I can only do this!" Pisa said with a smile.
"Okay! Tell me, why did you see me tonight?" Anlu saw that Pisa was serious and stopped complaining.
"Chief Anlu, may I ask how long the three major families have existed in Giant Rat City?" Bisa did not answer Anlu immediately, but asked a strange question.
"According to my family's records, nine hundred and eighty years ago, the ancestors of our three major families left Black Orchid City and came here to establish Giant Rat City!" Anlu calculated.
"Yes, nine hundred and eighty years! Nine hundred and eighty years have passed, but the Bode family has always occupied the position of city lord and has obtained more resources than our two major families. This is why the Bode family can be stronger than us.
The reason is that, Chief Anlu, haven’t you ever thought about changing the position of city lord? It’s time for my two major families to take the position of city lord of Giant Rat City!” Pisa said with squinted eyes.
"What?" Anlu was shocked. He didn't expect Pisa to have this idea, but Anlu agreed with Pisa's statement. The Bode family has been the leader of Giant Rat City for too long, why can't the Aike family?
Take a seat!
"What do you want to do? The strength of the Bode family is extraordinary!" Anlu said with a little heart.
"The strength of the Bode family is very strong, but now Crowe has been seriously injured for some unknown reason. Considering that his injury has not taken half a year, it is basically impossible to think about it. This is an opportunity for our two families. The strength of the Bode family without Crowe
But it will be much weaker!" Pisa expressed his thoughts bit by bit.
"How are you sure that Crowe is not a fake injury to deceive us? After all, I still haven't figured out the cause of his injury. What kind of person can inflict such serious injuries on him? In my opinion, this is more like a
Scam!" Anlu said cautiously, although his heart was ready to move.
"Don't worry, Anlu! The guards of the Giant Rat Corps at the city gate are members of my Kurt family. The matter is absolutely reliable. Crowe must have been seriously injured at that time! How about it? Do your Aike family dare to join forces with my Kurt family?
, destroy the Bode family first!" Pisa said cautiously.
