Chapter seven hundred and seventieth knight collar
According to the way the knights collected taxes, Xu Zhi felt that the good things were there. Naturally, he had to focus on finding treasures. If he went to the farmer's house, the best thing would probably be just a few potatoes, but when he went to the knights,
There are other possibilities for harvesting.
At least these guys could ride horses, carry weapons, and wear armor. Xu Zhi felt that the place wouldn't be too shabby.
Naturally, the four of them would not be so obedient, especially on horseback, so they would naturally have the conditions to escape.
On the way, a strong man forcibly beat the horse in an attempt to get out of control. Xu Zhi threw out the spear without hesitation, nailing the guy and the yellow gelding together. The remaining three people instantly calmed down.
"dismount"
A small gray stone castle appeared in front of him in the distance. As the three people pointed, Xu Zhi knew very clearly that this was the knight leader they were talking about.
"Sir, don't kill us."
The expressions of the three people changed greatly, but they did not dare to go against Xu Zhi's wishes. The guy in front of them possessed powerful force, which was far beyond what they could resist. They jumped off their horses one by one and squatted on the ground like quails.
After a few casual knocks, the three guys fainted immediately. Xu Zhi then began to forcefully strip off his clothes and luggage. The linen clothes he was wearing were a bit conspicuous. If he wanted to sneak into the city, it was obviously better to have a set of clothes in the city.
There are many private houses scattered outside the knight territory. These houses are made of gray stone to some extent, and the living conditions are far better than those of farmers. In these areas, cotton has been planted and pigs, dolphins and animals have been raised.
Behind the houses is a small castle, with two boring guards guarding the city gate. Inside the city gate, there are taverns, blacksmith shops, churches, lords' mansions, and various bluestone houses. They are different from the scene outside. They seem to be occupied by nobles and wealthy people.
Places where people live.
Xu Zhi looked at it from a distance, then climbed in from the side wall and walked in the alley like a normal person. At this time, he was wearing the clothes of a tax official and had a gray cloth wrapped around his head. He was teased by the strong men.
The exotic style is greatly reduced.
Not many people on the street paid attention to the sudden appearance of such a person. Several vendors shouted weakly and promoted the vegetables and fruits in their baskets.
Xu Zhi pushed the tavern open with both hands and ducked in with his head lowered. He was interested in some important buildings in the castle, but it was obviously troublesome to search them one by one. It was much more convenient to just listen to the corners of the tavern.
"Two silver coins, Mr. Tax Collector."
Xu Zhi remained silent, took the glass of brown liquid from the bartender, took two silver coins from his pocket and threw them over.
Extremely noisy is the standard feature of taverns. Even though the world has been broken into countless pieces, this does not affect the entertainment of some people at all. For those who have a little money and are adults, they can brag a lot in the tavern and drink a glass of ale.
, this is the happiest thing in their day.
"Let me tell you, our world is square. It is said that a knight galloped for several days before reaching the edge of the world. That place was so gray that he could no longer move forward."
"Who doesn't know that the world is square? The pastor of the church once said this, and it's your turn to brag, Spart."
"We are just a small world here. Only by praying sincerely to God can you enter a broader paradise. It is said that in that kind of paradise, you can run as fast as you want, even if you tire your horse to death, you will not reach the end. There are also many large towns with the legendary sun and moon.
There’s lots of good food, wine, and women.”
"I heard that the sun is so golden that it can light up the whole world at once."
"How big is the sun? I really want to enter the paradise that the priest said. I have never left the knight realm in my life."
"Then you must have never been to Ardini City."
"Isn't this nonsense? The city of Adini is more than two hundred miles away from here."
Some drinkers were talking about things in the world. Judging from the expressions of these drinking men, it seemed that they had long been accustomed to the life of the small world. After generations of reproduction, the teachings of the priests had even changed, and they were more in line with and closer to the reality of this ruin. This is
Xu Zhi encountered human society for the first time, and there seemed to be no special fault lines in civilization.
In terms of productivity, we cannot ask for too much from a ruins territory that is not very large. It is not easy to maintain or be slightly inferior to the level that has not been exploded before.
Adini City, Xu Zhi silently remembered the name of this city in his heart. A human city was obviously more worthy of investigation and exploration.
"Our knights are really unlucky. We have to guard the prison for generations. I heard that there is no grass growing near the prison, and there are evil people who have lived for countless years imprisoned inside."
"I heard that the priests have captured a man. He looks different from us and is dressed strangely. I don't know where he came from. I heard that the lords have gone over and are interrogating him."
Xu Zhi's heart tightened when he heard this. Gu Yuxi must have been arrested. Thinking of this, he no longer had much intention to listen to the message. He pulled off his turban, lowered his head and ducked out of the tavern.
The glass of ale, which had never been drunk, was on the table. In just a few seconds, several sharp-eyed guys saw it, and there was a lot of fighting, laughing and scolding.
The church of the knights is not far away. The space in the castle is limited. You can reach it by walking more than three or four hundred meters. This is a slightly remote and quiet corner.
If Gu Yuxi can be caught, the opponent is likely to have some magical abilities, or possess some sophisticated weapons, making it impossible to resist. Xu Zhi thought for a moment, and prepared a spear and an A77.
At the door of the church, four soldiers holding long swords and wearing blue armor looked solemn and patrolled back and forth. Compared to the two lazy guards at the castle door, these soldiers were considered elite soldiers.
After checking for a moment, Xu Zhi drew out his long iron spear and walked straight over.
"Tax officer, stop. The lord and the priest are interrogating heretics. The church will not be opened today. Please come back to pray tomorrow."
The soldiers waved their hands to give a reminder. The level in the castle was obvious, which could be seen from the individual's clothes. It was not surprising that the other party could see Xu Zhi at a glance.
"I always feel that I have never seen this tax officer before, and he seems a bit unfamiliar."
Some soldiers said that there were dozens of tax collectors under the Knights. This was a very lucrative position. It was also part of the official system, and many of the people in it had met in person.
"That's right."
Xu Zhi replied, he raised his head, and the long iron spear danced in an instant, and the four-fold stick shadow was instantly swung out, and the spear points were pointed out one after another. The soldiers who were not on guard were blown up in an instant, or
The pipe was severed and Gu Yuxi's safety was in immediate danger. Xu Zhi couldn't care less and forced his way into the small church.
If he encounters an irresistible enemy, the A77 on his back will be able to exert its greatest effect.
The main door of the church was pushed slightly, and Xu Zhi ducked inside.
In addition to several rows of prayer benches, there is a cross hanging high on the prayer platform in the front, and a familiar figure is tied to it. All his clothes have been stripped off, and his naked body is occasionally touched by an old gray-robed priest and a blond man.
The strong man touched it here and there.
That person was not Gu Yuxi that Xu Zhi was looking for, but Gao Wen, who had been tricked by him. He had met this person more than half a year ago. His face was calm at the time, but now he was extremely panicked and even brought a sense of panic.
With some despair.
"What are you going to do, ah, ah, ah, oh~"
"You two perverts"
"I'll tell you whatever you want, don't touch me, ah, ow~"
