Chapter 25: I havent confirmed the look... He is a strong enemy!
In Donremi Village, all the villagers have been mobilized, and the villagers walked out one after another... fully armed.
Although he was fully armed, he only used everything that could be used at home.
For example, using a stew pot as a helmet, or binding hands and feet with winter clothes... The men picked up iron tools, while the women also picked up rolling pins or kitchen knives.
It seems that the villagers have considerable experience in this situation. Although they seem a little hasty, they are not panicked.
Under such circumstances, Asaches found that searching for food actually became quite easy because the villagers' homes were all open, and many houses were no longer occupied.
The villagers have already gathered.
"If there are so many, it should be enough." At this time, Mr. Azashes touched the trophies in his hand, looked at Nan Xiaonan and said, "Let's go back first, Miss Nan."
"Yeah." Nan Xiaonan nodded.
On the way to find food, Nan Xiaonan and Asaches didn't have much conversation... Mr. Asaches looked very worried along the way. At this time, because he had found enough food, he looked better.
But it's only better.
"Boss Asaches, are you worried about Principal Ludick?" Nan Xiaonan asked tentatively at this time: "I heard that you have had a good relationship since you were young."
"The relationship is very bad." Asaches said directly, extremely seriously.
Nan Xiaonan is now learning and selling: "The sage should have said that we should get along well with each other, love and help each other."
"No, the saint did not say this." Mr. Asaches said at this time in a cold and serious tone: "Either you remembered it wrong, or your interpretation of the sacred scriptures was wrong."
Nan Xiaonan is embarrassed...how does she know whether the [Sage] has said it? Isn't it usually the case? Since he is a [Sage], doesn't he know how to preach?
"...Maybe I remembered it wrong." Nan Xiaonan could only smile and said, "It should be the [Saints] from the other seven capitals who said similar things."
Asaxes did not refute this time. The reason for the other seven capitals is very simple: he is not familiar with the other seven capitals!
Maybe he was blinded?
Nan Xiaonan observed Asaches's expression, and after careful consideration this time, he slowly said: "Boss Asaches, if you never have a way to leave here, what are you going to do?"
Asaxes said: "Then we can only live here forever. We cannot commit suicide. The soul of suicide cannot ascend to the kingdom of heaven. Even in the desperate situation, we must live strong."
"But here, you can't even pray to get the power of a wish." Nan Xiaonan said quickly: "I took a look just now, and I found that the people in this village don't seem to have much faith."
In fact, Asaches also discovered it. He had already taken a rough look at the village, but failed to find a place like a church... Even when he quietly walked into the houses in search of food, he did not find any convenient places to pray inside the houses. facilities.
"This may be a place with poor beliefs." Mr. Asaches said thoughtfully: "When I was traveling with my teacher when I was a boy, I heard that some beliefs are so poor that even seven
An area where even the city’s holy light cannot shine.”
"What if this is not even the Kingdom of Holy Light?" Nan Xiaonan said suddenly.
"You are more worried about your own situation, Miss Nan." Boss Asaches suddenly looked at her.
Nan Xiaonan blinked her eyes in surprise. She didn't care about her intention being seen through... What surprised her was that Boss Asaxes' thinking seemed to be somewhat inconsistent with the main theme of the entire Kingdom of Holy Light.
What should I say?
If every resident of the Kingdom of Holy Light is a human model and a human being with an almost perfect personality, then Mr. Asaches is obviously not so perfect...or does he have some flaws himself?
"Is there anything wrong with this?" Nan Xiaonan said: "Of course I will consider my own safety, and when danger comes, I will be the first to take care of myself. This is human nature, human instinct,
What’s wrong with this.”
Mr. Asaches shook his head and said: "Human nature is kind and should not be selfish."
Nan Xiaonan said disapprovingly: "Now I want to kill you, or kill Clary, and only one of you can survive. Who do you hope it will be... No hesitation allowed, what is the answer in your heart?"
"Of course..." Mr. Azashes opened his mouth. The moment he opened his mouth, he could not tell the answer in his heart.
He was shocked to find that he could not produce an answer in his mind!
"Your question is not valid." Asaches finally shook his head: "You have no reason to kill me or Clary, because we are all in the same difficulty now, and we need to help each other to get out of it.
Difficult possibilities.”
"So." Nan Xiaonan chuckled at this time and said: "Boss Asaches, you are avoiding my question...because you may have some hesitation in your heart."
"I didn't." Asaxes took a deep breath at this time and said seriously: "I firmly believe that the saint will definitely appear in despair, bring us hope and drive away fear... Therefore, what you are considering will not
Established.”
"You firmly believe it? Why do you believe it?" Nan Xiaonan sneered: "You can't even pray here, right? How does the saint know that you are suffering?"
"Of course it is!" Mr. Azashes opened his mouth and then fell silent.
"Because?" Nan Xiaonan suddenly narrowed his eyes.
Mr. Asaches said calmly: "[The Saint] will never give up on anyone who believes in her. You worry too much, Miss Nan."
What did you hold back from speaking out impulsively?
As expected, he is an old man with a scheming mind.
Nan Xiaonan shrugged at this time, and then suddenly pointed forward, smiled and said: "Then now, we have to see if the saint you call Mr. Azaches will really never give up on any believer.
It’s time.”
Asaxes frowned in confusion and looked in the direction Nan Xiaonan pointed.
Outside the village, on the road to the fields, something was approaching quickly...a dark group!
"It seems like...cavalry?" Mr. Asaches was shocked.
…
…
"Father!"
On the other side of Donremi Village, the girl easily met Mr. Jacques under the leadership of her maid.
At this time, Mr. Jacques was discussing with the village chief Charles and several other village representatives about the cavalry attack. They thought that the cavalry would attack soon, but after waiting for most of the night, there were still people outside the village.
There was no movement.
Naturally, the village chiefs would not doubt Mr. Jacques' information. After all, this was something that besides Mr. Jacques, several village militiamen could also prove it.
What they are confused about is that the cavalry has not appeared for a long time. This is not a good thing, because fear and anxiety will continue to expand over time.
Perhaps, this group of Burgundian cavalry was waiting for the villagers to become exhausted due to nervousness before taking action and defeating them in one fell swoop?
Perhaps the real purpose of the cavalry is not the village. They are just passing through this time. In fact, they have other tasks?
There are different opinions, but there is no unified statement... and there is even a tendency to quarrel gradually.
Mr. Jacques breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his brows, temporarily withdrew from the discussion, came to the door of the conference room, and looked at his daughter.
He straightened his face and said: "Jeanna, you should know that my tolerance for you has its limits."
The girl bowed her head and said sorry. She knew her father was very good at this. As long as she bowed her head and admitted her mistake, she would always be able to hit her father's weak point.
"Usually you can let it go if you act willfully, but this time, I can't forgive you easily." Mr. Jacques was very angry today, and there was even a tendency that he could not extinguish it.
The girl is making calculations in her mind.
Mr. Jacques has said directly: "Your mother said that it is time to find you a husband. After you get married, you will become mature. I have always felt that you are still young and should not make a decision so quickly."
Marriage. But now it seems that it is really necessary to find a good husband for you."
The girl looked up at her father in surprise, feeling suddenly enlightened in her heart.
Isn't his father taking this opportunity to reveal some information to himself first, so as to pave the way for the young man who came forward in the mansion to come back safely and fulfill the engagement?
The person he is facing is obviously his own daughter, does he need such cunning calculations?
Although she had some complaints in her heart, the girl surprisingly did not refute Mr. Jacques at this time. She just lowered her head and looked pitiful.
Mr. Jacques was also surprised that his daughter did not refute the matter. Logically speaking, given his daughter's character, she would definitely argue with reason at this time.
Why does it seem to be the default?
Forget it, it's not necessarily a bad thing if my daughter is more obedient... at least I can fulfill my promise after that brave young man comes back safely.
"Father, let's talk about my affairs later." The girl raised her head and asked, "What's the situation in the village now?"
"We have temporarily arranged the retreat route." Mr. Jacques said worriedly: "But once the cavalry attacks, at our speed, I am afraid it will not be long before we are overtaken... Originally, the earlier the retreat, the better.
But the guys inside kept arguing and couldn't make up their minds. They still fantasized that maybe they could hand over their wealth to the cavalry to plunder it in exchange for safety. Huh! They were able to set fire to the village last time, and they dare to do it this time.
Kill with a sword!"
"Father, I have a way to keep everyone safe!" A bright light flashed in the girl's eyes at this time, and she said quickly: "I know a place that is very secret and spacious enough to hide!"
"Oh?" Mr. Jacques was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed, "Where?"
The girl quickly mentioned that not far behind her farm, there was a secret passage leading to an underground lake and underground river.
"...That was when I was hunting nearby and I accidentally discovered it while chasing a prey!"
"It's hunting again!" Mr. Jacques stared, and then shook his head: "But it can be regarded as an accident... If what you said is true, then the village may really be able to survive the danger safely this time.
Without further ado, I will discuss this matter with Charles and the others right away! You wait for me outside. When I need you, I will call you in to explain... Just say that you found it when you got lost while walking.
"
"I know..." the girl muttered in response, and then said: "By the way, father, why don't you see those outsiders who left with you in the afternoon? Didn't they come back?"
Mr. Jacques simply said what happened, "Except for the brave young man, the rest of the people are back... That young man is really brave. If it weren't for him, I would have died miserably in the cavalry."
Under the sword. If he can come back safely, you must thank him, you know!"
The girl was a little distracted at this time.
Not back yet?
It shouldn't be... I've obviously already gone home first, and even changed my clothes before entering the village. Why hasn't that person come back yet?
Or, you have returned to the village, but you haven't come back yet... but have met up with your companions first?
"Where are those foreigners now?" the girl suddenly asked.
Mr. Jacques casually pointed to a certain house in front of him, and when he was about to speak, a voice called him came from the meeting room... It sounded quite excited.
"Wait for me here, then don't go!" Mr. Jacques said hurriedly and returned to the house.
At this time, the girl quietly stuck out her tongue, lifted up the long skirt that affected her movement, turned around and left.
…
…
Clary, the maid of [Rose Mansion], is using a feather duster to drive away mosquitoes for Mr. Ludick and his male assistant... This is the only thing she can do.
At this moment, Clary looked with awe at Miss Youye who was sitting on the table writing something.
She had already written on many sheets of white paper, which were neatly stacked aside... They were all formulas and names that Clary couldn't understand at all.
What about the fluctuating purity of faith, what about the benchmark point of the soul...and a lot of other messy things.
Ha...hmm.
The maid even yawned and fell asleep.
At this moment, the door outside the room was suddenly pushed open by something.
The maid Clary was so frightened that she lost all her tiredness. She even stood up and held the feather duster in front of her to protect her. Then she realized that she had held it backwards, so she turned around again and continued to protect her in front of her.
.
But when she saw a beautiful girl of fourteen or fifteen years old with long blond hair and a dress standing at the door, Clary's tense heart relaxed a little and she subconsciously asked: "Who are you?"
"Jeanna!" The girl in front of the door said her name directly, and then frowned: "You are the only ones here?"
"The room is only so big. Miss, will your vision be hindered at night?"
The one who responded was surprisingly the maid.
At this moment, the maid lady was still writing a lot of things that Clary couldn't understand... without looking up.
The girl in front of the door couldn't help but frowned again. She looked at the woman who was concentrating on writing something, and she couldn't help but subconsciously thought: She is a strong enemy!
…
...I always feel like the atmosphere is a little strange?
The maid of [Rose Mansion] quietly huddled in the corner... Only then did she remember that she still had her feather duster raised, so she quickly put it down and showed an embarrassed but not rude smile.
But neither the girl who called herself Jeanne in front of the door nor the maid who was writing something actually looked at her.
