Chapter 103: escape
Weiss looked at his arm bandaged with thick bandages, his expression turned from grief to self-blame.
"It wasn’t until that moment that I realized that this meeting was a trap set by Basson and Uncle Kotar. The elf diplomat McKinney was probably also involved in the conspiracy, and I was so dull until after the tragedy. I realized that I was involved in a **** coup."
"Fortunately, there were still many supporters of my father in the venue. Under the protection of their desperation, I finally escaped the claws of Bason and Kotar, left the cold-blooded tribe overnight, and threw the Bason and Kotar in the swamp. The chasing soldiers came alone and fled alone..."
"I ran aimlessly in the swamp, and unknowingly walked to the edge of the swamp, the clear Dring River flowing under my feet, I saw a quiet and peaceful house across the river, guess where the smoke rises It is the town of Delin where humans live together."
"At that time, I had nowhere to go. I was seriously injured, and there were chasing soldiers behind me. I knew that I was not popular with humans and I could only go to Delin town with my scalp..."
"I saw guards guarding the town entrance, so I had to go back to the river and dive upstream, so I passed through the warning zone without knowing it, climbed the bank embankment near the waterwheel, and saw that the open area by the river was piled up like a mountain Logs, guessing this should be a sawmill, quietly got into the wood pile and hid."
"I lay in the pile of wood, the wound kept bleeding, trembling all over, my consciousness gradually blurred, and the sound of death's foot seemed to echo in my ears..." Weiss looked at Dick and Roger, his eyes full of gratitude, "in that On the night of death, at the moment of my most painful despair, blessed by our Lord Samuela, two kind-hearted Mr. Ding Daor came to me like an angel and dragged me back from the edge of death."
"In fact, this is just a coincidence." Roger succeeded Wes to tell what happened next. "Wes was hiding at the logging site of my house. Dick and I went fishing by the river yesterday morning and accidentally saw the grass on the beach. If there is blood stains, follow the blood stains all the way to the depths of the lumber yard and find an injured lizard man fainted in the wood pile. We took the dying stranger home and helped him apply the medicine to stop the bleeding and bandage the wound. He woke up at noon and told us his name and origin, and in this way, we met Weiss."
"When we learned of the coup that took place in the swamp, we all realized that Weiss was in a dangerous situation. On the one hand, we had to notify the militia to strengthen the patrol as soon as possible, in order to prevent the Basson and Kotar rebel groups from sending spies or assassins to sneak into the town of Delin. Weiss, at the same time, had to arrange a refuge for him.
"At first, Dick and I thought that my father should be invited to take shelter of Weiss, but unfortunately our Mr. Mayor was very hard-hearted. When he learned of the changes in the cold-blooded tribe, he coldly told Weiss that Delin Town was neither obliged nor responsible. Sufficient ability to provide political asylum for a lost lizard prince'. In order to avoid angering the Kotar party who seized power, my father ordered Vis to leave Delin before dark, lest the Kotar party This poor fugitive declared war on the town as an excuse." Roger shrugged and shrugged his hand, disapproving of his father's decision.
"Although this is my father's order, we really can't bear to drive Wes out of Delin Township, wouldn't that be pushing him into the fire pit?" Dick's disturbed words showed pure justice and compassion, "I discussed with Roger and thought that we couldn't do what Dad meant. However, we did not dare to openly disobey the order of the mayor, so we pretended to obey his order and escorted Weiss out of town. We didn’t go far, and we went back into the woods of the back mountain. Joan, you probably also expected that, including my father and most of the town councillors, we did not approve of keeping Weiss, so that we can’t be in town. In public appearances, we can only try to hide him in a safe and secret place."
"For example in the woods of my house?" Joan asked.
"Everyone in the town knows that the strange old man Tyre has a bad temper. Even if he is not afraid of blaming the old man, he is worried that the old man's grandson and grandson will cast spells on the mouse or something. Normally, no one runs into the woods to ask for trouble, so Roger and I decided to send Wes to the woods of your house for a few days.” Dick said half-jokingly.
"The three of us probably came to the forest hut at dusk, when there was no one in the house, so we let Vis wait in the hut. Roger and I went down to your house to explain the situation to you. I heard Jamie yelling, and there were beasts roaring louder, horror, and unheard of than howling wolves..." Dick couldn't help but glance at the docile gray-bag beast sitting in front of the opposite fireplace. , "We foresee that the situation is not good. We hurried back and happened to see you confronting Weiss and ran out to clarify the misunderstanding. Fortunately, we came in time to avoid an unnecessary conflict."
Roger’s thoughts were more detailed than that of his elder brother Dick. Seeing Joan said nothing, guessing that he was reluctant to intervene in this business, and put away his smile and said seriously: "Joan, you may think that Dick and I are helping Weiss. The matter is purely asking for trouble. In fact, we did this not only out of sympathy with Weiss, but also with far-reaching considerations."
"A deeper consideration?" Joan looked at Roger doubtfully, expecting him to continue.
"Weiss just told about the coup in the cold-blooded tribe. In my opinion, this tragedy is not accidental. The roots are the "conservatives" headed by Elder Milik and Weiss and the "radicals" represented by Elder Basong. There is an irreconcilable contradiction between them.” Roger talked eloquently. “The Basong party advocates the joint expansion of the goblin family and plundering the wealth of human towns. Elder Milik opposes this aggressive claim and sticks to the lizardmen family. The neutral tradition of the two sides, the dispute between the two parties eventually led to a **** coup. As a result, Elder Milik was assassinated by Kotar, Weiss was wounded and fled, and the Kotar and Basong parties usurped the power of the cold-blooded tribe. To cleanse the forces that supported the elders of Milik, to abolish the neutral principles of the Milik era, and to implement more radical policies, it is conceivable that the cold-blooded tribes in power of the traitors and the equally aggressive, aggressive and ambitious land The Jing family will form a military alliance and join forces to wage war against the surrounding villages and towns! Our town of Delin is located near the swamp, whether or not we take Wes, it will inevitably become the target of the cold-blooded tribe in the end-in the end, we still cannot escape This war!"
