Chapter 419, Chapter 420

Seeing Xie Feng's hood being knocked off, both Cecilia and Al were shocked. Others, on the other hand, were confused. They had no idea what the relationship between "Feng Xie" and Charlotte was.

Seeing that Xie Feng had been dodging Charlotte, even sitting in the last position, and using the hood behind the cloak to cover his face, he was already a little confused. But now, he saw Charlotte suddenly shot down

He took off Xie Feng's hood and had no other thoughts besides being a little surprised.

Al was startled and subconsciously reached out to pull out the weapon. After trying nothing, he realized that the weapon had already been given to the guard when he entered the door.

After Xie Feng's hood was knocked off, he hurriedly covered his face with his hands, but only a small part of it was covered. It seemed that Xie Feng's hands were just to block the sudden candlelight.

Until now, everyone has clearly seen who he is as "Feng Xie"? He is clearly Cromwell!

I saw "Cromwell" looking at Charlotte with fear and asking: "Sir... sir... is there... something wrong..."

Looking at "Cromwell's" face, Charlotte frowned and asked, "Why do you keep covering your face?"

"Cromwell" stammered: "I...I have never seen any king, or even...not even a lord...I...I'm nervous..."

Dante, who had seen Xie Feng's "jugglery", reacted very quickly and immediately explained: "Your Majesty, he is Miss Cecilia's worker, his name is Cromwell. He comes from Shiba Zumo, and he has a humble background.

I haven’t seen any big scenes, so I’m quite nervous.”

Charlotte looked at where "Cromwell" was sitting and asked, "Why is he sitting with those Salander mercenaries?"

"Cromwell" explained: "Go back to your Majesty... there are many people here... I can sit farther away... facing your Majesty... I... I'm nervous..."

Charlotte stared at "Cromwell's" face for a long time, and finally showed a smile and said: "I'm sorry for frightening you. I saw that you have been avoiding me, and I thought you were some kind of bad guy.

.Now it seems that I was overthinking, and I apologize to you for my rudeness just now."

"Cromwell" still said nervously: "No...it's okay..." Then he reached out and put the hood back on the cloak.

Except for such an episode, Charlotte ignored Xie Feng and smiled at Eric: "Let's continue talking about bees. These bees and honey are very useful to us. I hope

Mr. Eric can give it up. Of course, we can discuss the price carefully."

Eric sighed and said: "Actually, I also want to sell these bees to His Majesty... But I have contacted the seller before coming here, and the other party also gave me a deposit. I know that even if I break the contract, it will only be

I have to pay for it, and I believe that your Majesty, you will not be stingy in helping me with this amount of money. However, people cannot stand without trust, and the most important thing in doing business is to pay attention to integrity. Unless it is an irresistible natural or man-made disaster, otherwise if I

If I resell the goods to others midway just because I am greedy for money, others will definitely scold me and say that I am not trustworthy. The benefits I can get from His Majesty here are only temporary, but the lost reputation will last a lifetime.

As a traveling caravan, I'm on the right track, but I still have a long way to go to revive the family, so I don't want... Your Majesty, you should know."

Charlotte nodded and said with some regret: "I can understand, but I don't have the right to let you do things that are detrimental to yourself."

Seeing that Charlotte was willing to give up the bees, Cecilia quickly said: "Well, as compensation, I am willing to give all the bees I brought this time to Your Majesty. Although it is not many, it is estimated that it can at least solve the urgent need.

I will put a label on each jar of honey later to explain its medicinal effects and how to use it."

Charlotte nodded and smiled: "That's very good. But I can't get that honey from you for free. I'll just buy it from you at the current price of medicines with the same efficacy on the market. I will ask the quartermaster to contact you about the transaction.

." After saying that, he stood up from his seat.

Seeing Charlotte standing up, everyone present also stood up one after another.

Charlotte strolled up to "Cromwell", picked up the candle on the table, glanced at "Cromwell" again, and said: "I'm a little tired, so I'll go back and rest first. I'm sorry.

I can’t see you off.” After saying that, Charlotte walked towards the depths of the hall holding the candle.



After everyone walked out of the castle, Xie Feng also returned to his original shape.

Jamara looked at Xie Feng and asked: "So you really know how to do tricks like this? By the way, why did you just..."

Xie Feng blocked Jia Mala's mouth with one hand and looked around cautiously. Fortunately, none of the nearby soldiers noticed. So he sighed and whispered to Jia Mala: "I used to have a relationship with Charlotte.

It’s a holiday...you’d better not ask.”

Soon, a quartermaster came over and discussed the honey trade with everyone.

When they came to the cart, Cecilia put a label on each can and explained the usage and dosage to the quartermaster, who also registered it carefully.

Seeing that there were no other soldiers nearby, Comstock smiled and said: "It seems that this Charlotte is quite polite, without any airs of being a king. She seems to really treat us as honored guests."

"

Eric shook his head and said: "No, although what she said really made people feel like she was a distinguished guest, she still very strictly followed the etiquette that should be expected of guests of our status and did not overstep it. I don't know about you.

Did you notice that even after we sat down and talked for so long, we didn’t see Charlotte ask anyone to bring us a glass of water? Because according to the etiquette of the nobility, only the master recognizes the status of the visitor will he let the servant

Bring water to the guests. And our status as a 'traveling caravan' is really different from that of a king, so we didn't let the servants bring us water."

Dante touched a handful of beard on his chin and said: "If you can still say it, then this Charlotte is really scary, at least the city is quite deep. Although it does not recognize our status, it gives us a little

I don’t feel disrespectful at all.”

The transaction ended, and after Cecilia got a bag of coins, everyone left Sharez and set off again.

Serra followed the team and complained: "I'm so bored. I thought I could reach the interior of Rodok within today. Now that I've been delayed in Sharez for so long, I don't know if I can get there before dark.

Cannot pass through the Gamchi Mountains."

Xie Feng smiled and said: "If you don't want to follow, just leave this team, and no one will stop you."

Serla said angrily: "What do you mean? I've told you everything I know about Mr. Evil, and now you're going to drive me away? Isn't that right?"

Xie Feng smiled and said: "I didn't chase you away, I just saw that you seemed reluctant to stay in this team, so I just let you go."

Serla said: "By the way, why did you suddenly become another person when you were in the castle just now?"

Xie Feng shook his head and said: "Secret, even if you beat me to death, I won't tell you... Oh, I forgot that you can't beat me."



It was already noon, and the scorching sun at noon was scorching everyone on the way.

Jia Mala was covered in hot sweat, and the chain armor she was wearing that was given by Xie Feng was also hot in the sun, making Jia Mala feel like meat being grilled on an iron grid. Jia Mala complained: "

Hey, Feng Xie. This place is still a little far away from Hawaha Village, so why not just rest and eat here."

Xie Feng looked back and saw that Shariz's silhouette had already disappeared on the horizon. It was estimated that Charlotte no longer doubted him and sent troops to chase him. Then he said: "Okay. Just stay where you are.

Rest for an hour."

Comstock said: "Hey, Feng Xie. There is no village in front of you, no store in the back, and no water source. I can't help you."

Jamala waved her hand and said: "No matter, just eat some dry food... I'm almost dried up in the sun... Sauron! Set up a tent?"

Xie Feng smiled and said: "You only need to rest for an hour and you still want to set up a tent? You have just set it up and have a meal and you have to put it away."

Jamala said helplessly: "It's better than being exposed to the sun for an hour here, right?"

Xie Feng thought for a while and said, "That's right." Then he dismounted, walked to the carriage, took out his tent, held it in his hands, exerted all his strength, and threw it into the sky.

I saw the folded tent spreading out in the air, then like a big parachute covering it, and landed on the sand.

Xie Feng then took off the iron brackets and spikes that matched the tent from the truck, and shouted to everyone: "Come and help, we are just setting up this tent. Everyone, please come in and have a rest."

The tent was set up and everyone went inside.

Sure enough, as Jamara said before, it wouldn't seem too crowded if the whole team came in. I don't know what the roof of this tent is made of. Even if the light from outside can penetrate, everyone stays inside.

But it doesn't look sunburnt at all.

Jia Mala sat casually on the ground and took out a piece of dry biscuit from her bag. When she was about to bite it, she suddenly stopped, looked at Xie Feng and said: "Hey, Feng Xie, bring out something delicious. I know.

You must still have a lot of delicious food hidden in your arms."

When everyone heard this, they all stared at Xie Feng.

Xie Feng sighed and said, "Do you think I am Doraemon?" After saying this, he still reached into his arms and took out a lot of dried meat and bread.

Everyone shared the dried meat and bread, and everyone began to eat.

This is what Sherlock said while eating: "By the way, Feng Xie, after I came out of the castle in Sharez, I went to the street to inquire about it."

Xie Feng asked curiously: "Inquiring? Inquiring about what?"

Sherlock said: "Didn't you say before that you saw Rhodok's soldiers appearing during the siege of Sharez? I went to the streets to inquire about this matter."

Xie Feng felt a little ashamed. The sudden appearance of Rodok's soldiers really puzzled Xie Feng, but he never thought of finding a way to figure it out when he was in Shariz, and finally he became a scout.

Sherlock noticed this.

So Xie Feng quickly asked: "What did you find out?"

Sherlock said: "First of all, according to the reaction of the citizens of Sharez, we did see Rodok's soldiers during the siege last night. This shows that Feng Xie, you were right."

Xie Feng said: "Nonsense, of course I am not wrong. What else? What else did you find out? For example, why did the Rhodok Kingdom suddenly help Swadia?"

Sherlock shrugged helplessly and said: "If you think about it, you should know that it is impossible for ordinary citizens to know these political things."

Xie Feng frowned and said: "Then you are saying that you only found out that the appearance of the Rodok soldiers was true, and you didn't know anything else?"

Sherlock smiled and said, "You can't say that. Then I went to find a few guards who were lazy on the street corner and chatted with them. I mentioned intentionally or unintentionally that I saw a lot of Rhodok's weapons everywhere."

Xie Feng hurriedly asked: "Did you ask anything else?"

Sherlock said: "Of course there is, and I guess it won't disappoint you."

Xie Feng said: "Stop being so pretentious and tell me quickly."

Sherlock thought for a while and replied: "Those Rhodok soldiers, the total number is probably less than one hundred and fifty - of course, this number is a bit suspicious, after all, these are only the active people seen by the Swadian soldiers."

On the battlefield, there may be some logistics personnel and reserves that I haven't seen, so I estimate that the number of Rodok soldiers is around 00."

Xie Feng said hurriedly: "The number of people is not the main thing, the main thing is that I want to know..."

"Wrong!" Sherlock interrupted: "The number of people is very important. Think about it, if Rodok really came to support Swadia, would it be too little to send 00 people?"

Xie Feng nodded and said: "It's indeed a bit less. But does it matter?"

Sherlock said: "It's a big deal, because the commander of the 00 Rodok soldiers is only one person - this was calculated by the soldiers based on the number of the highest-grade tents they saw in Rodok's military camp.

.”

Xie Feng said helplessly: "Can you stop talking nonsense? It's normal for 00 Rodok soldiers to have only one commander."

Sherlock smiled and said, "Then do you know who the commander is?"

Xie Feng asked: "Who?"
