In the forest, it was getting slightly brighter every day, and Lorraine Hill woke up to a burst of noise. When he opened his eyes, he found that Lottie was clumsily making a fire. Looking at her, she seemed not to know what to do.
"It is necessary to leave a gap between the firewood. It is best to form a hollow in the middle, so that the air can come in better and help the combustion." Lorraine Hill said the experience he heard from adults when he was a child, and patiently taught this down-and-out
Miss.
"Thank you." Lottie blushed slightly, but still nodded.
Looking at this girl who was as cute as a sister, the corners of Lorraine Hill's mouth turned up slightly.
"Eat some breakfast and then set off. Don't stay out overnight today." Lorraine Hill stood up and took out the last few pieces of bread from the small package he carried with him. The two of them warmed it up and began to enjoy it.
After the rain, the air in the forest was particularly fresh. The two of them walked quickly through the mountains, crossed the river and the woods, and slowly arrived at the city they came from before.
After entering the city, the two of them walked on the street and soon noticed something was wrong. It seemed a lot quieter today.
When they walked to the square in the city, they saw a group of people gathered there. They walked forward and found out what happened.
The investigators came to the city, arrested several wanted criminals who were on the run, whipped them and hanged them in the square. Their bodies are still hanging on the high platform today.
"The criminal was punished by hanging for violating the laws of the empire... and attempting to commit rebellion..." Several people who were illiterate looked at the notice and read the words above word by word.
"They are probably the remnants of the Paskar family..." Some people who had just arrived commented casually. Anyway, the affairs of those nobles had nothing to do with them.
"No, it's another group of people." A hunter carrying a bow pointed to the words above.
"They are revolutionary parties from other provinces of the empire."
"Revolutionary Party, what is that?" Some people were confused.
"It is said that there is a group of people in Zishan Province who want to imitate Crancia and overthrow the rule of the empire." An uncle said softly.
"This is quite courageous, tsk tsk." A group of people shook their heads after hearing this, thinking that this was simply a lunatic.
"How can the empire be so easy to overthrow? Besides, why should they be allowed to take over?"
"I think no matter who you fall in love with, it will turn out like this."
"Let's go..." After saying that, several people immediately dispersed and ignored the announcement.
After hearing this, Lorraine Hill walked forward slowly, read the announcement, and then looked at the two corpses, sighing silently in his heart.
The so-called innovation is not such an easy thing, and it has to face more people's misunderstandings. Great undertakings are always full of difficulties in the early stages, which makes people lose hope.
"Let's go back."
"Yeah." Lottie looked at the two dead people, paused for a while, and then followed Lorraine Hill's footsteps.
That night, a loud shout and the sound of footsteps woke up Lorraine Hill from his dream.
Opening the window of the hotel, there were groups of guards holding torches on the street. Judging from their clothes, they were all private soldiers raised by Viscount Moreau.
"Everyone! From now on, no one is allowed to leave the city." A powerful reading broke the silence of the night.
Residents of countless towns woke up from their sleep, and then opened their windows and doors in confusion and uneasiness to understand the sudden outbreak.
Soldiers were now standing on the originally loose city gates and walls. Under the leadership of various captains, they blocked the exits of the small town and then searched house to house.
"What happened?" A resident who got up from bed in the middle of the night opened the door and asked the guard anxiously.
"Master Mo Ruo has lost something, and now we need to investigate the outsiders in the city." These usually casual guards looked cold and entered the house one by one to search.
"It's unfair, sir, our house is so small, how can we possibly hide people?" the resident begged, feeling heartbroken when he saw the guards roughly opening up the haystacks and overturning the bed boards.
"Humph." After the inspection, the guard turned his head and led the person out of the room.
"The next one."
Although there were not many guards under Viscount Moreau, only about 500 people, in the face of these guards, the local residents did not dare to resist. They could only open the doors from house to house and let them search.
Lorraine Hill was puzzled, put on his clothes, took his sword and walked out with Lottie, and came to the yard. Now many members of the caravan had gathered here, and everyone was talking quietly.
"I heard from Miss Charlene that Viscount Moreau seems to have lost something important, and now they are searching all over the city."
"What kind of treasure is this? Is it so important?" Others were a little confused.
"I don't know either, but the news I heard said that Viscount Moreau was very angry and gave the guards a death order. The results must be found out."
"There's some trouble now. I feel like a lot of things will happen." Although the caravan has nothing to do with this matter, they can't guarantee whether this angry noble will transfer his anger to them.
"We can only wait for news from Miss Charlene. She is currently negotiating with the guard captain Kevin."
After listening, the others sighed, then turned their heads and found Lorraine Hill walking downstairs.
"Is Miss Mecia awake too? It's not a peaceful night."
"Well, I also came down to understand the situation." Lorraine Hill nodded and asked about the current situation.
Bang bang bang——
Just as everyone was talking in the yard, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Coming."
The caravan members opened the door in confusion, and a group of heavily armed guards stood outside. They wore blue checkered smocks and chainmail, holding halberds in their hands, and there were several soldiers in black beside them.
"My lords, we are from the Röntgen caravan, and we are old friends of Lord Moruo, haha..." The caravan member said with a dry accent, his volume getting lower and lower.
"Yes, of course I know your origins, so you are also a major target of suspicion." This guard captain is not Kevin, but a sinister man. He is a distant relative of Viscount Moruo, so he naturally has Moruo's trust.
"Ask all members of your caravan to gather in the courtyard. If you hide other outsiders, you will know the consequences." When he said the last few words, his words suddenly became cold, making others shiver.
"I know, I know..." The young man was obviously a little scared and responded quickly, then ran back and asked everyone to take his companions out of the room.
Seeing the scene in front of him, the guard captain was not satisfied. He waved his hand, and a group of soldiers behind him rushed into the courtyard like wolves and tigers, quickly climbed the stairs, and pushed open the door amidst a burst of exclamations.
Quickly check each hiding place.
Listening to the noise coming from upstairs, the guard captain showed a satisfied smile, and then looked at the people in the yard one by one with his hands behind his back.
"You, and you, come out." Soon, he focused his attention on the two beautiful girls.
In the night illuminated by torches, the beautiful faces and figures of these two girls were so conspicuous and dazzling among the crowd, especially the blond girl, whose hair was like golden threads under the reflection of the flames.
, supple and touching.
