889: Fire

Tonight he calculated silently; besides himself, Thomas, Kugan, the Duke, and his son, there were only twelve soldiers left here. Thomas looked up at Pug who was crawling in front, "Where are we going?"

Tonight he signaled to him to whisper. He tilted his head to the side, "Go and see what's there."

Thomas nodded, and then they continued to climb. The stiff fingers protested to grab the hard rock, but felt his body warm up to the evening. He grabbed the edge of the top of the rock, climbed up the ridge, and waited for Thomas.

Thomas climbed up the ridge, gasped heavily, looked behind Pag, and exclaimed, "Oh, praise the gods!"

The towering gray tower city solemnly rose behind them. The sun rose behind them, casting a layer of rosy and golden light on the north-facing mountains, but the side facing west was still shrouded in the darkness of indigo. The sky was cloudless and the heavy snow had stopped. Looking around, all the scenery was covered with white clothes.

Tonight, Gadan waved his hand. The sergeant walked to the bottom of the rock, climbed up for a while, and asked, "What?" Tonight, "Grey Tower City! No more than five miles."

Gadan waved and asked the boys to come back, they climbed down and jumped heavily when they were a few steps away from the ground. The destination was right in front of them, and they felt full of vitality. They walked to Gadan, who was discussing with the Duke, Arusha and Kugan. \'Drop off the luggage of the dead horse and distribute it to everyone. Take the remaining horses, but don't ride. No need to cover up the animals' bodies, we will leave obvious footprints anyway." Bolik said softly, and every word of his words spread clearly into the clear morning air.

Sailing to the gay and walking back to the soldiers. Both of them were standing alone, their eyes alert to any possible pursuers.

"Do you know which way to go to the southern pass?" Bolik said to Kugan.

"I will use my magical vision to observe, my king." Kugan gathered his mind and looked carefully tonight. Using the Eye of the Mind is another skill that he tried to avoid in his studies. It was a bit like using a crystal ball, but lacked images, and more of some impressions and feelings related to the magician. After a few minutes of silence passed, Kugan said, "I can't say, Your Majesty. If I had been here, I might have felt more. But now I can't sense any possible way to the pass."

Bolic nodded. "I wish the Longbow was here. He knew the area." He turned east, and seemed to have crossed the ridge and stared at the city of Gray Tower. "To me, this mountain is like other mountains."

Arusha said, "Father, are you heading north?"

Bolik smiled slightly at Arusha's logic. "Yes. If the pass is in the north, we still have a chance to pass through before it is blocked by heavy snow. Once we cross the mountains, the weather in the east will be much milder—at least in general, at this time of year. We can walk all the way to Porodun. If we have already crossed the pass in the northern pass, we will reach the dwarves. They will provide us with shelter and may know other routes to the east." He looked at the exhausted team. "Three horses and the melting snow water to quench our thirst, we can at least last until next week." He looked around and stared at the blue sky. "If the weather could be clear.

"We may have two or three days of good weather. I can't predict the further future," Kugan said, a cry in the distance echoed in the forest, deep in the dense forest. Everyone immediately calmed down. Bolik looked at Gadan. "Sergeant, how far do you think they are from us?"

Gadan listened carefully. "It's hard to say, my king. One, two miles, or more. The sound is always weird in the forest, especially in such cold weather." Bolic nodded. "Call the men and let's leave immediately."

Blood flowed out of the cracks of the cracks of the cracks of the cracks tonight. The Duke kept leading people to climb up the rocks to prevent the Dark Clan from chasing them. Every hour, guards were sent back to cover up the traces they left, dragging the blankets taken from the dead horse behind them, and destroying the footprints left as much as possible.

They stood in a clearing land at the top of the dangerous rock, sparse pine and poplar trees surrounding a round and bare rock. The trees became more sparse as they continued to move towards the top of the mountain. They always took more risks in the rugged and steep mountains than facing the pursuers behind them. Since dawn, they began to move along the rugged mountain roads toward the northeast and head towards the Gray Tower City, but to the anger of today, the mountains did not look so close.

The sun was already rising above our heads, but we couldn't feel its warmth at all. The cold and cool breeze blew down from the towering gray tower city. Tonight I heard Kugan's voice coming from behind. "As long as the northeast wind keeps blowing, we will not encounter heavy snow, and the humid air will fall from the top of the mountain. If the wind turns west, or northwest, from the distant endless sea, then we will have heavy wind and snow."

Tonight, she was panting up the rocks, trying to balance on the smooth surface. "Kugan, do we still have to attend classes?"

Several people laughed and briefly dispelled the harsh tension that had been in the past two days. They arrived at a wide and flat land before the others even came up, and the Duke ordered a stop. "Come on fire and slaughter a livestock. We are here to wait for the guards behind the temple."

Gadan soon sent people to the bushes to collect firewood, and one man took two horses away. The tall animals were injured, hungry and hungry, full of resentment for their commands, Gadan hoped that they would stay away from the smell of blood.

The selected horse neighed, and then everything returned to silence. When the bonfire arose, the soldiers placed the horse meat on the flames. Soon, the air was filled with the fragrance of barbecue. Without caring about his previous disgust for killing horses, he found that the smell made his saliva flow down tonight. Soon, he held a wooden stick with roasted horse meat and nibbled like a hungry wolf. Next to it, Thomas was also doing the same thing to a roasted horse waist that was sizzling.

When they finished their meal, the still hot barbecue was wrapped in a blanket and torn coat on the horse and then distributed to everyone.

We were with Thomas tonight by Kugan, watching people pack up their camps, put out campfires, cover up the traces left, and then ready to continue on the road.

Gadan walked to the duke. "My king, the guards behind the palace have not arrived yet."

Bolic nodded. "I know. They should have been back half an hour ago." He looked down the hillside and stared at the endless forest wrapped in the mist. "Let's wait for another five minutes and then go."

They waited quietly in silence, but the guards did not come back. Finally, Gadan issued an order, "Okay, boys. It's time for us to go."

The men stood up and followed the Duke and Kugan, and the boys followed at the end. Pag counted silently. Only ten soldiers were left.

The dwarves stood guard.

Tonight, they sat around the campfire and swallowed the meal prepared by Doorgan. A pot of stewed meat was bubbled by the fire. The skin of the bag was crispy and shattered, and the exposed black surface was quickly swallowed up. The smoked fish brought by the dwarf finally changed the taste of the traveler who had been sucking horse meat all day long.

Tonight, he looked at Thomas, who was sitting next to him, who was fighting his third piece of bread and stew. Tonight, he noticed that the dwarves camped out of their way. Most of them gathered outside the cave entrance, and it seemed that they were not as sensitive to the cold as humans. Two dwarves cared for the still-surviving wounded, the other two distributed hot food to the Duke's entourage, and one filled the beer glass with a huge skin sack with a bubbled brown liquid.

There were about forty dwarves with Doorgan. Beside the dwarf leader were his sons, the eldest Vilin, and Yudi. They had a surprising similarity to their father. Although udell looked darker and his red-brown hair was dark, they still looked very much like their father, the old dwarf who was talking to the Duke with an exaggerated gesture, holding a pipe in one hand and holding a wine glass in the other.

The dwarves said they had been patrolling along the edge of the forest for a while, although it felt unusual to be so far away from their village tonight. They came here with the footprints of goblins that had attacked not long ago, and if the storm of the night had covered all the traces they would not have found the Duke and his gang.

"I remember you, Lord Bolic," said Doorgan, sucking a sip of wine, "though you are no more than a baby when I visited Caridade for the last time. I had dinner with your father. He had a wonderful party."

"If you can visit Kared, Doorgan again, I believe you will find my banquet equally perfect." They then discussed the Duke's mission, Doorgan almost remained silent during the meal, lost in his mind. Suddenly he noticed that his pipe had already been extinguished. He sighed and put it down until he noticed that Kugan took out his own pipe and sucked the clouds. He suddenly became happy, "Do you still have rich tobacco to share, the master of magic?" he murmured.

Kugan took out his tobacco bag and handed it to the dwarf. "Luckily," he said, "my tobacco and pipes are always on my body. I can stand losing everything else, and although the two books I lost hurt me - I can't imagine what it would be like to lose my pipe."

"Yes," the dwarf picked up his own pipe in agreement. "You're almost completely right, besides Fall Beer - my lovely wife or a joyful battle, and of course, the pipe is pure fun by comparison." He took a deep breath and blew out a large smoke ring to emphasize his idea. A trace of worry passed through his wrinkled face, and he said, "Now, let's talk about the news you brought. It's a strange news, but it explains some of the strange things we've encountered recently."

"What's strange?" Bolic asked.

These days, the pirates and women and children on Black Hawk Island only talked about two topics. One was to use the treasures he stolen to buy something on the mainland, and the second was the little beautiful girl he stolen.

After the beautiful girl was robbed back, she was locked in the big house of Black Hawk. At first, she didn't eat or drink, but just cried every day, but she didn't even have the strength to cry until she fell into a coma. Black Hawk had always had a bad temper, but instead treated this little beauty very favorably. She tried every means to coax the little beauty to eat. In the words of his brothers, she could not find such a beautiful girl in the world.

Although when the brothers talked about this behind their backs, they either curled their lips or squinted their eyes. No matter how beautiful they were, they were just a little girl with incomplete development. How beautiful could they be! Later, Black Hawk was helpless and forced the porridge into the girl's mouth and barely allowed her to survive.

It was another windy and dark night. Charlotte carried two freshly roasted fish and tiptoed towards the largest yard on Black Hawk Island, which was the only yard. It was said that the courtyard was just three or four wooden houses, and there was a circle of wooden railings of two people outside. Such a yard was already extremely magnificent on the island. The pirates' residence was either a cave or a wooden house with two or three houses.

This yard is naturally the mansion of the Pirate Head Black Hawk. Charlotte doesn't want to do anything, but just wants to give some food to his young wife in his mind. Of course, he doesn't dare to give it to him openly, so he can only sneak in the middle of the night.

He stretched his head like a thief and looked around. There was no one in the high viewing platform in the distance. Most of the pirates watching the night were lazy again and dozing off secretly.

There was no one around. Charlotte ran to the yard a few times, and could hear the soft crying sound through the wooden railing. The quiet night was so clear. He put his head on the wooden railing, and his eyes passed through the gap between the wooden railings and looked in. It doesn't matter if he doesn't look, but when he saw his heart jumped suddenly, a figure flashed into a room, and this room was where the crying sound came.

This figure is definitely not the Black Hawk. Black Hawk is much taller than that figure. Who would it be? Who is so bold and dares to sneak into the Black Hawk's yard, and it seems that he is the only one in his impression.

After the figure entered the room, the soft crying suddenly stopped. I don’t know what happened inside, murder or rape! Charlotte’s heart suddenly hung on his heart. He held the branches of the fish in his mouth, jumped up and grabbed the top of a wooden railing with his hands, pulled up hard, and stretched his head on it, hanging it on it like a dry monkey.

Just as they were about to turn over and enter, they suddenly creaked softly, and the small door of the house opened. Then two figures walked out of the house gently, holding hands tightly. Looking at the dim moonlight, the beautiful girl in green and a little boy did not recognize that she was not a child on the island.

The word "elopement" was about to come out, and his mouth widened and turned into a "o", and his head exploded with a burst of flowers. My wife dared to rob it! Charlotte was angry that the girl and the boy had already walked to the wooden railing quickly. Perhaps it was too hasty, and he didn't see the scathing head crawling on the wooden railing.

The little boy pulled the beautiful girl tightly and jumped up. He jumped high over the wooden railings of two people and landed outside the yard. The little boy was very skilled, and Charlotte saw it in his eyes that was so big that he stared into two little ‘o’.

The two of them fell down and were about to walk towards the beach. Suddenly, a tender shout "Stop" came from behind him. The quick figure was slightly stunned and turned around quickly. A young man slid down from the wooden railing, his thin body was bare-armed and stepped on the barefoot board.

At close range, Charlotte also saw the boy's appearance clearly. He was about the same size as himself, but his body was much taller and he was even more handsome and beautiful.

"Who are you? How dare you steal my new wife!"

Charlotte glanced at his nose with his thumb, and still looked like he was showing off his power. This was his territory even if the other party was taller than him.

"Hmph! Just because of you, the toad wants to eat swan meat."

The handsome boy snorted coldly, his eyes filled with contempt and disdain. After saying that, he ignored him and turned around and pulled the girl forward quickly.

"Don't leave, let go of my new wife."

The handsome guy who was still so arrogant in his territory was the most unfavorable. Charlotte lifted a pair of his pants that were almost drooping, spread out two chicken legs and ran behind the boy a few steps, and reached out to grab his shoulder.

The young man's figure suddenly turned halfway. As soon as his body turned, one leg slashed through the darkness like lightning. A gust came. Charlotte had not seen clearly what was going on. With a roar, his body had already flew backwards and landed on the ground and rolled several times. Finally, he lay on the ground on his back, blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth, and a tooth rolled into his stomach. He kicked Charlotte down, and the young man turned around and wanted to leave again.

"Rampant, dare to act wildly on my territory."

A roar sounded in the air, and the Black Hawk jumped in the air, clenched his fist with one hand, and the fist hit the boy's head like a black wind. The two boys' tossed finally awakened the real overlord of this territory, Black Hawk.

The sharp wind came, and the boy did not dare to be careless. He let go of his hand that was clenched with the girl, spread his figure again and waved his palm to meet him. The two fists collided, and the boy stood steadily, just half a figure of Black Hawk, and the black Hawk was slightly stunned. The heavy punch that had gathered 70% of his strength did not knock down the boy. He shouted repeatedly, without any conservatism, and swung his fists like a storm.

The boy was not outdone, and waved his palms to meet him. Compared with the Black Hawk's heavy punch, the boy's figure was as fast as lightning, and his palms were as fast as the wind. The Black Hawk's punch had already made two punches, taking advantage of the speed to make up for the shortcomings in strength. In the swelling and jumping, the two did not decide the winner.

The fist wind that seemed to be empty could really feel the existence of power. The beautiful girl standing alone, with a gentle body like a willow, fell to the ground with a low scream.

Charlotte, who was lying on the ground with his legs spread apart like a living turtle, opened his eyes in a daze, saw two jumping figures, one big and one small, and heard crackling sounds. He shook his head and saw the beautiful girl who fell to the ground again.

‘That's the matter with you two gods fighting, and you'll be beaten to death, and no one will snatch my wife with me!’ Charlotte muttered in her heart, turned over, slowly crawled towards the beautiful girl, climbed to the side of the girl and stretched her head, almost putting her mouth on the girl's fair face. The girl who fell to the ground fainted and let Charlotte stare at her tightly.

After a while, the beautiful girl opened her eyes slowly, with a head in front of her eyes, and a pair of eyes dripping at her, without blinking, her mouth almost leaned on her face.

‘Ah’ the beautiful girl exclaimed in fear. Charlotte was looking beautifully. Suddenly, she saw a pair of beautiful eyes open, and suddenly another scream rang in her ears. ‘Ah’ Charlotte was scared by this sudden scream, and her extended head flew back like a spring.

"Ruo Lin, what's wrong?"

The boy in the fight was still concerned about the safety of the girl. Hearing the exclamation, he looked sideways, and saw Charlotte's vulgar appearance, and he was angry and shouted in low voice:

"Shameless."

It turned out that the beautiful girl was named Ruolin. After Charlotte screamed, he snatched the back of his head and muttered in his heart, "Roolin, this name sounds really nice." Sha, Sha, Sha, a burst of rapid running sounds came, and several tall figures rushed over quickly. This violent attack finally woke up the vigils who had secretly fallen asleep.

What I saw was a young boy fighting fiercely with his head. His physical strength was completely out of proportion, but he could not gain any advantage in the scene. Seeing his subordinates running over, he could not do anything to a young boy. He didn't know where to put his old face.

The black eagle flew backwards in the air, and his body landed on the ground to gather all his strength to silently practice his mind. In the blink of an eye, his clenched fists flickered black light, and a strong poisonous aura poured out.

This is a unique spell of the poison sect "Talmites" on the mainland. Only when you practice to the second level of "viciousness" will you have such an appearance. This Black Hawk was once a monk of the "Talmites". However, he violated the dogma of the poison sect and was chased by other sects and became a pirate.

Unexpectedly, a young man forced his head to use all his magic power and the pirates running at the door. He couldn't help but be stunned and stopped unconsciously. The changes in the Black Hawk's fist naturally fell into the boy's bright eyes, and his brows frowned slightly.

"Brother, stop worrying about me, run away."

A weak call passed through the night. The beautiful girl who woke up stared at the boy with a worried face. Although she was younger, she could see that the boy was in trouble.

It turned out that this young man was the brother of this beautiful girl, but I didn't know that he was the brother of those boys, 'Does brother or love brother!' Charlotte now turned into a nostrils, and his mind was full of thoughts. He had the heart to hold them to the death.

The boy was unmoved when he listened to the girl's call. His eyes sterned and the corners of his mouth moved slightly, as if he was reciting some strange magic tricks.

Suddenly, a ray of red luster in the black eyes flashed out, like two burning fireworks, and their eyes were hidden in the fire light and turned into burning pupils.

“'Fire Eyes'”

A few screams sounded at the same time, which was the sound of pirates, and the terrifying expression was self-evident. The "Fire Eyes" Red Flame Empire royal family, the unique "blood succession" technique of the Yuwen family, can only possess this pupil technique with the blood of the Yuwen family.

The pirates couldn't help but be curious about the identity of this young man, and were even more afraid of the "fire eye". The pupil technique that monks on the entire continent dream of was the foundation of the Red Flame Empire.

Most of these pirates have practiced in major sects. The "Fire Eyes" is well-known. Although it is so mysterious, it is so dazzling. Even these pirates who have very low cultivation and have little knowledge of it know something.

Like an arrow in the string, a burst of fire was out of control. The black light and black gas turned into a whirlwind. The black eagle roared and his fist was already above his head, only one position away from the boy. The boy shouted in a low voice:

"flame"
