Chapter 353
At the intersection of the three forks, there were no traces of people and chariots except for these resting guards.
Drinking water, feeding horse feed, chatting, sitting on the ground to rest... After dismounting, the cavalry did their own things in an orderly manner. However, among them, a middle-aged man sitting alone in the middle of the crowd was quite eye-catching. The reason for saying this is because he is the only one who does not wear standard armor, and not only that, he is also tied with heavy chains on his hands and feet.
Needless to say, based on the current situation, the prisoners who were caught by Bovis and the others were undoubtedly undoubtedly.
"Who invented the iron chain? Should I be so rough? Can I give a lock? I'll wipe you. No wonder I don't search the old man's body. I can't cut it with weapons..."
The middle-aged man fiddled with the chains and cursed in a low voice, his face turned pale, a little haggard, and his expression was very depressed... If Tang En were here, he would have recognized that this was Jack who had just parted with him a week ago.
This is true, and Jack was unlucky. After he learned from Donn that Bovis was still in Shanxi City, he stayed for a few days before leaving. But who expected that Bovis had secretly left the city before that. What's even more tragic is that Jack was itchy last night. When he was committing a crime in a city, he was accidentally hit by the passing Bovis...
This is also the reason why Bowes was rushing back to Shanxi City. After the incident of Alex, although he did not know what Tang En and the noble negotiating team were doing together, he vaguely knew that the two must have something to do. Now that the nobles have left, he naturally worried that Tang En would leave as well.
Powells walked over casually, watching Jack look up and throwing the newly obtained water bag: "You're almost here in Shanxi City. Have you thought it through clearly? Haha... don't worry. It's not poisonous."
Grinned, moved the water capsule away from the front of his nose, raised his head and poured his mouth, "Tsk..." He raised his arm tied up in chains and rubbed his lips, and looked up, Jack looked confused, "What are you thinking about, I really don't understand what you are talking about."
"Pretty. Keep pretending!" Powells looked squintingly, sat next to Jack, and patted his shoulder, "I, Powells, have a little fame, but I haven't even reached the point where I just met a thief and shouted my name so swaying."
Jack's body shook first, subconsciously trying to move aside, but was forced to stay in place by Bovis's wide palm resting on his shoulder. After hearing this, his mouth twitched, showing a look of annoyance.
In fact, after he met Powells last night, the other party had no intention of taking action. You should know that he had a disguised prop on his face, and Powells couldn't see through it at first glance. But Jack himself felt guilty first. He subconsciously called out Powells' name...
"That, that's because I've seen you before."
"Editor, continue to edit!" Powells mocked his tone, obviously disbelief, pointed at Jack's face, "No matter how quibbling it, it's useless, this is the point! Haha, such a perfect disguise... Let's talk about it, what is your relationship with the guy holding a pothole dagger?"
"I don't know..." Jack's face felt a little bitter and shook his head to deny it. It can be said that since he got the disguise props, this has become his greatest reliance and his sense of security has improved a lot. But Jack never expected that one day he would fall into Powells' hands because of this disguise.
"What a ridiculous loyalty!" Bowes sneered and shook his head, squinted his right eye slightly, "I will not be as polite as I am now when I arrive in Shanxi City. Well, you are a thief, you should have entered the interrogation room. Tsk tsk, think about the whip, knife stool, soldering iron, and water cage there..."
As various torture instruments were spoken out, Jack's face became increasingly ugly. Finally, he shouted angrily: "I admit that I am a thief, but according to the imperial laws and regulations, stealing should not be subject to these punishments!"
"Oh? You still understand the imperial laws and regulations, you are quite professional." Powells smiled and reached out to sort out Jack's collar, then suddenly pulled himself in front of him, and spit out starfish, "I see clearly. What is in front of you is not the imperial laws and regulations, but me, Powells! Powells! Do you understand?"
Jack looked a little stunned, Powells raised his tone, and Thunder roared, "If you don't want to taste the torture instruments of the security hall one by one, if you don't want to die for a lifetime, just answer my question honestly! Say, do you recognize him?"
Stammered, "Recognize, recognize..."
"Where is he?" continued to yell.
“…That’s impossible!”
"Uh..." Bovis blinked, keeping his mouth open and roaring. Then he came back to his senses based on the previous and next sentences, sneered back and sneered, patted Jack on the shoulder as usual, "Have courage!"
Shrugged, Jack bowed slightly: "Thank you for the praise, this is my honor."
Papa, patted his palms twice, and Powells stood up expressionlessly: "You are welcome! I like your sense of humor, and I hope you can keep it longer."
"This...I'll do my best."
Powells narrowed his right eye again and a cold light flashed. But at this time, Bernie had already walked over, looked at Jack on the ground, and shook his head, "Old Bao, it's time for us to set off."
After breathing, Powells nodded and turned away.
"Hu..." Jack, who had just looked light and light, suddenly shrank, breathed a long sigh of relief, reached out to wipe away the sweat from his forehead, and his face turned pale.
The thieves and assassins who have never faced Powells directly will never experience the pressure. Jack used to be in Laiyan City and knew more. It can be said that he lived under Powells' tyranny, so he naturally felt more stressed.
"Tang En, brother, I can only help so much... You must leave Shanxi City quickly before I explain. Cough cough, the faster the better, I can't hold on for long... Well, of course, it would be better if I could rescue me directly..."
Jack kept muttering here, the knights around him had already turned over and two cavalrymen came over and were about to carry Jack onto the back... Suddenly,
hiss--
A long neigh of the horse came from afar. Everyone subconsciously turned their heads and saw a man and a horse running towards this side on the right side. However, after this long neigh, the brown horse seemed to have exhausted its strength because of the long running, and its front legs became weak and it fell directly forward.
"Wow...huh...hiss..."
Shocked, soothed, and took a breath, and in just a few seconds, the expressions of the knights changed rapidly.
But it turned out that the man immediately took off the air when the horse fell down, and he was agile to avoid this sudden disaster. Then he looked up and probably saw everyone here. The figure he had descended suddenly lifted up again, stepping on the void, as if there was an invisible highway under his feet, and came quickly in the air.
As we all know, besides magicians, only the only ones who can vacate the air are empty. How can this not make the unprepared knights stunned!
But in an instant, about a hundred meters away from the cavalry, the figure slowly descended. Such a distance was enough for everyone to see the man's appearance... The young man's face was quite charming, but the most noticeable thing was the long silver hair that swung in the wind.
They probably haven't reached the empty level yet... Bowes and Bernie looked at each other, both of whom saw each other's judgment and nodded to each other.
This judgment is naturally not a waste of time. The silver-haired young man is clearly looking for them. If he already has the strength of the empty level, he will definitely choose to land directly in front of them instead of a hundred meters away. Of course, even if he has not reached this level and is able to waste his time in emptiness, he will have found the right way. In time, if there is no accident, he will have to completely set foot in the empty level sooner or later.
"Dropping off the horse!" Without hesitation, Powells and Bernie issued the same order and took the lead in getting off the horse.
Whether it is out of respect or for their own life, they cannot stay on the horse and look down at this master. You must know that as long as the other party takes action, crushing them is no trouble than crushing a few ants. At this level, the sign of the Security Hall is completely useless.
It was precisely because of this psychological deterrence that everyone was a little worried and looked nervously at the silver-haired young man walking towards him as if he was slow and fast. At this time, everyone, including Bovis, did not notice that Jack behind him trembled at this moment, his body was trembling at high frequency, his face was as pale as paper, as if he would faint at the next moment.
In fact, if there was a choice, Jack wanted to faint now. Powells and the others did not recognize this silver-haired young man, but he knew him. It was in Riva City, when he and Don Eun went to the black market and ran into each other head-on. At that time, Don Eun's warning was still in his ears. If he met, he would run as far as he could!
This is Yemo, the leader of the Dusk Hunter Group! Of course, thanks to Tang En, he is now the leader of the bachelor group.
Damn, I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I'm going to die this time...
Originally, Jack is carrying disguised props now, and Yemo cannot recognize him no matter how good his memory is. However, during those days in Mountain Creek City, Don had heard of him that he had killed Eunice and was chased by Samp and Olyph. So Jack knew very well that if Yemo recognized Bovis, he would definitely be harsh without hesitation. At that time, Jack did not think that he and these fellow cavalry would be spared...
When Jack's body was cold and his heart was ashamed, Yemo had already come to everyone, nodded and asked politely: "How to get to Shanxi City?"
"Uh... over there." Powells was stunned and pointed out the direction.
Yemo's lips raised, as if he wanted to express gratitude, but at this moment, his eyebrows frowned instantly. He looked at Bovis' outfit and then looked at the cavalry around him, paused, and his tone was inexplicable: "You are the cavalrymen, huh, the cavalrymen of Shanxi City?"
Bowes was a little alert, but after all, he didn't understand the situation, so he nodded: "Not bad."
"Ha..." Yemo raised his eyebrows in surprise, shook his head, sighed at his luck, then chuckled and stroked his palm, spreading it out, "So, who is Powells?"
