1. "Hey, look at the little brother on the other side!"
A big red-faced man jumped out suddenly, with a straw in his mouth stylishly, at least this behavior is very popular among thieves.
"Is there anything you need?"
Ye Bainian frowned, this is the first guy to jump out, usually those who dare to come out at this time are either stunned or really strong.
"Actually, that's how it is. I think you are very talented, have excellent bones, and excellent aptitude. You must be a dragon and a phoenix in the future!" The red-faced man stroked his chin with a serious look.
Hearing this, Ye Bainian smiled and said, "Oh? Could it be that you want to give me a martial arts cheat book for me to practice?"
"No, no, no, I'm a serious businessman, how could there be such a thing?" The red-faced man shook his head, "However, I see a look of sadness between your brows—of course, don't be discouraged You can’t be depressed, there are always ups and downs in this life. As long as you work hard, you will surely achieve something in the future!” Mmm, she is thin and has a good complexion, and I am afraid that she will attract money wherever she sells. what!
"Oh, thank you for the encouragement, if there is nothing else, I will go first."
Ye Bai thought and walked away.
"Hey, wait!" The red-faced man said with a stern expression, "You don't believe my words?" Hmph, I see you are not intimidated by the master!He has tried several times, and every time he meets a guy who looks weak, he will fool him, but if he fails to make a straight face and scare him.
"I don't believe you, what's wrong?" Ye Bainian had a "you're so stupid" expression on his face. "Go back and practice for a few hundred years."
"You, you boy, you don't want to drink a toast!" The red-faced man was furious, and he almost heard the snickering from the brothers behind him, "Brothers, come out and let this boy know that we It's amazing!"
"Okay, red boy, don't trap us, other people will not be fooled by you long ago!" A greasy-haired, pink-haired man ran out.The smile on the mouth is very cheap.
"You are the second child! Let me tell you. Lubas, don't think that I dare not do anything to you because you are the nephew of the head of the family!"
The red-faced man seemed to be really angry, and his words were rushing.
"Hey, hey, everyone has something to say. Don't do this, don't do this!" A few more men came out.It seems that he wants to make peace. "It's all this kid's fault. As brothers, we should ask him for it!"
"Huh? You must be right!" The red-faced man thought for a while, and it was really the case.He didn't seem to be so angry anymore, but when he turned his head and saw Ye Bainian holding Flandre and ignoring him and walking a dozen steps earlier, his anger erupted again, this time probably even more violently, "You Little boy, you are looking for death, you dare to ignore my red nose!"
Ye Bainian didn't hear it, he was just worried that he would wake up Flandre and kill these people directly.
"Hey, I'm f*** calling you!" Seeing that Ye Bainian was still ignoring him, the red nose couldn't help pulling out the ax on the back of his waist, and rushed straight over.
"Second Red, you bastard, don't hurt the goods! If you hurt your drink money, you'll lose it!" Seeing this, Lubas shouted anxiously, "You guys, hurry up and stop Red Nose and the goods! "
"Yes, less master!"
A few people clasped their fists together and split into two groups in the middle, standing in front of Hong Nose and Ye Bainian respectively.
"Hey, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop!" Ye Bainian sighed, staring at the three people in front of him, he immediately judged the approximate class in his heart.
Three second orders?And that red nose should be at the third rank, as for the others, they are at the second and third ranks!At the same time, he has already sensed every move around him.
"Boy, be honest, hand over the things in your arms first!" Because Flandre was wrapped in clothes and hugged in her arms, these people didn't see clearly that there was a little girl inside.However, judging by their temperament, what they see will only fuel their arrogance, right?Anyway, thieves have always been the same no matter which world they are in. They are bullying and fearful.
"Honestly, I wanted to get rid of you! I was worried that she would wake up, but now it seems that it's better to get rid of it quickly!"
"Ah? Are you so scared that you can't speak clearly?" Several thieves were grinning, but the red nose stopped by his companion suddenly felt a breath of fear in his heart. He was about to turn around and run away, but found that everyone including himself There was a strange black "rope" wrapped around his feet, which looked like several whips of iron sand.
After the system change, Ye Bainian found that he seemed to be able to borrow Meiqin's ability, but his intuition told him that it should be related to his current class.If Mikoto was at level 7, he should still only be able to play at level 6, but I don't know if it will be the same in reverse.
"Repent in hell, sand and iron for funeral!"
Ye Bainian has always thought that Gaara's moves are very cool, and he must give it a try if he has a rare chance.
"A good man doesn't look back!"
Nodding his head self-consciously, his action also frightened the other people hiding in the dark. When the terrifying Iron Sand Whip appeared silently, if he released it towards the surroundings at this time, it would probably still Can pull out a lot of people.
"It seems that the people around have retreated for the time being, which is quite wise." Ye Bai said so, but the expression on his face was terribly gloomy.This happens on the periphery of the territory, so how chaotic should it be inside the territory? !Although death is not a very rare thing, there are still two ways to die, comfortable and painful.
Those enslaved people probably yearn for death the most, but they are so numb by reality that they don't even know what death is. What kind of sadness is this?
However, when Ye Bainian really got close to the territory, he unexpectedly saw a group of soldiers patrolling the surroundings mightily.Their equipment is scattered, some are wearing armor, some are wearing helmets, and some are wearing helmets... At first glance, no one is wearing complete equipment, and even such a group of people may be difficult. Throw together a complete set of armor!
These are not what he cares about. What really surprises him is that although all the soldiers in this group look serious, they always exude a vigorous spirit of facing life and facing the future.Judging by their appearance and imposing manner, he knew that they were not bandits or the like, but like soldiers in the true sense of guarding the town and their families!
Strange, Paqi doesn't seem to have such a force in my territory, right?Could it be that something happened during this time?Ye Bainian was a little curious. When he observed carefully, he found that the group of people were all pale. It seemed that they must have been hungry for a while. He guessed in his heart that these people might be those refugees? !
"Stop, who are you?"
Seeing Ye Bainian approaching, the leading man pointed his spear at him nervously. The spear was made of wood with a sharp iron blade.The other people's reactions were not slow at all, and each raised their own weapons to be on guard.
"It's the first time we met. I'm here to take over this territory." Ye Bainian shrugged and stopped walking.
"Receive the territory? What do you mean?" A trace of surprise flashed across the man's face.
"Literally." After thinking for a while, Ye Bainian still explained, "Simply, this is the territory of my Edlanse family, and no one has managed it in recent years. Now the empire has sent me Come and manage this piece of land. By the way, my name is Edward? Edwards, and I am the patriarch of the Edwards family today. That is to say, in fact, the family only has two descendants, me and my sister."
"What, the Edwards family?" The man looked very surprised, "Impossible, if you follow the normal date, you should have come a long time ago!"
"Oh, you know?" Ye Bainian was a little surprised. He carefully observed the leading man in front of him, and found that he had a more soldier-like aura than the others, "Are you a soldier? Hahaha , actually because I ran to Britain to help my friend before."
His face was as grave as dirt, the man didn't know what he was worried about, but it could be seen that he was very surprised and even more alert.
"Well, I guess I should have the right to go in?"
Ye Bainian smiled, not worried because of these people.He could feel that although the man in front of him had an outstanding temperament, his strength should be around level 4, and he wasn't considered dangerous to him at level 6.
However, because of his words, the atmosphere at the scene seemed to freeze, as if it was about to explode.
Chapter 21 A Different Rural Woman Joan of Arc
1. "There is no proof, since you are Edward? Edwards, then show the evidence!"
"Evidence? In fact, I think my appearance is also evidence." Indeed, silver-haired people like Ye Bainian and Qiong are very rare in the Conferred God Continent. "Other things, do the official documents of the empire count? Of course, I don't." I plan to show you."
"What do you mean?"
"It's literally." Ye Bainian rolled his eyes, "Okay, the person who can make decisions for you should be here soon, right? Then wait a little longer."
Hearing this, the man's face changed greatly, and he said nervously: "You, you..."
"What are you doing? Isn't it just changing your loincloth? This should be sending a message, right?" Ye Bainian just saw that the person at the back of them quickly tore off the white cloth around his waist and put on a red one instead. Bu, "This method of delivery is quite common. You wouldn't just use it like this, would you?"
"I—" The man was just thinking about something, but was interrupted by a voice behind him.
"Gantoya, what's the matter, what happened?"
This is a woman's voice, which is very pleasant in itself, but it is more clean and clear than ordinary people. In addition to the gentleness unique to women, there is also a capable air in the tone.This is a heroine, Ye Bainian judged.
Some people are like this, just need to listen to the voice to reflect the inside of the person.
The team was divided into two sides, walking in the middle was a blond girl who made Ye Bainian feel super-attribute, almost as soon as he saw her, he shouted: "Lily, why are you here? You left Lance and the others and ran out Yet?"
"Huh?" The girl was a little surprised. After thinking hard, she still couldn't remember the person in front of her. She couldn't help asking, "Sorry, do we know each other? Also, my name is not Lily."
Hearing this, Ye Bainian looked at her a little strangely, and then she quickly discovered the difference between the girl and Lily - her eyes were not emerald green but the blue of the sea, and her temperament was also very different. characteristics, and more importantly, Lily would definitely not wear a braid like the girl in front of her.Because that will definitely be taught by Lancelot and the others.
Yes.The girl in front of me has a long golden braid and is wearing a rough linen dress. At first glance, she seems to be a rustic country girl, but the holy aura around her makes all this dull .Instead put it where it needs to be taken seriously.
She is definitely not Lily's foodie.It's just that since it's not Lily.The one who looks the same as her but has this kind of temperament - Joan of Arc?Duck!That Red Lotus Saintess!If Ye Bainian hadn't been hugging Flandre, he would have patted his forehead to see if he was hallucinating.
"What's wrong?" the girl asked again. "I think, we should...don't know each other?"
"Hehe, indeed, we don't know each other. It's just that you look a lot like my friend, so you're unconsciously stunned."
"Your friend? Is that the one named Lily?" The girl looked curious, "Do we really look alike?"
Nodding his head, Ye Bai said, "It's not just a resemblance, it's exactly the same! If it weren't for the color of your eyes and the difference in your clothing, I would have thought you were the same person!"
"That's right, it really makes people want to see each other!"
"Hehe, there will be a chance." And there is Liya here!Ye Bainian added in his mind, "By the way, I'm Edward? Edwards, how about you?" He didn't ask her directly if her name was Joan of Arc, otherwise it would be useless except to cause unnecessary trouble .
"I'm Joan of Arc? Duck." The girl's name was indeed the Red Lotus Saintess, "Adlans? Are you from the Aedlans family?"
"Yes, I think, you should understand why I am here?"
Nodding hesitantly, Joan of Arc said: "Some time ago, the Vatras Empire released a message that the Edwards family is going to take over the territory here. Is that person you?"
"Of course, this is an official document."
Ye Bainian took out the official document given by Bennett from the interspatial ring and handed it to Joan of Arc. He might not be at ease with other people, but he could never trust Joan of Arc.Even though this Joan of Arc might not be the same as the Joan of Arc he knew, the feeling in his heart would never deceive anyone.
Taking the official document seriously, Joan glanced at it casually, handed it over again, and said, "Sorry, I can't read." This sentence was very sincere, and there was no room for humility.
Other people might really laugh because of this subtle "cold joke", but Ye Bainian knew it very well in his heart, and it was true when he muttered in his heart.
"Oh, it doesn't matter." After a pause, "Is there anyone else who can read? If I read it to you, you won't be convinced, right?"
"No, I believe your Excellency's words." Joan shook her head, but there was no abnormal expression on her face.
"My lord, you can't do this..."
"It's okay, Gan Tuoya, we are not a regular army." Joan raised her hand to signal that Gan Tuoya didn't need to stop her, "Lord Lord, please come this way." She turned sideways.
In his impression, Joan of Arc is a very... well, very foolish and loyal person, that's how it should be.This may have something to do with her background. Of course, it doesn't mean that she is ignorant, but that she is easily influenced by the surrounding environment in that environment.
As ordinary peasants, what Joan of Arc and the others usually receive is the ideological education of the supremacy of imperial power, which is not very direct political/political brainwashing, but it is very suitable for ordinary people.As for the ordinary people here?In fact, it also includes most of the nobles and practitioners. This point has to do with the specific cultural accumulation and the upper class of the country.
Turning his gaze over, Ye Bainian discovered that there was a city wall erected in the center of the territory that should have had no specific defensive facilities—from a distance, it was completely inferior to the city walls of those big cities, and even the outer city walls of those towns. Not as much, because it's just made of thick wooden barrels sharpened.
However, perhaps only those leaders who truly understand what is the foundation of a country will understand what the real walls of a territory are - the people within it!These grassroots civilians may not be as powerful as those powerful mage fighters, but their explosive power is no less than them, especially when they really gather together!
Ye Bainian saw the cohesion of the residents here from the aura and demeanor of the guarding soldiers glimpsed at the corner that should be the city gate, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart for Joan of Arc's powerful charm and extraordinary leadership ability.
"You people here are very energetic!" Ye Bai praised, "You must have created such a vibrant atmosphere, Joan of Arc."
"Huh? Where, I just let those who are capable among them hold their weapons." Joan said a little shyly that this was not the case.
"Really? Then treat it like that." Ye Bainian was noncommittal.
However, Joan denied it, which doesn't mean that other people are willing to let others "misunderstand" her, so Gan Tuoya cried out anxiously: "That's not the case, all this is thanks to Lady Joan of Arc, if there is no Lord Joan of Arc, I'm afraid we are still living a life of slavery to those thieves!"
"Hehe, look? This belongs to your subordinates."
Ye Bainian blinked at Joan of Arc teasingly, making this immature girl blush, the amorous feelings at that moment made everyone including Ye Bainian unconsciously surprised .It was also until this moment that he really realized that Joan of Arc, Lily and Arturia were completely different types. If he hadn't been too impressed with Lily, he might not have recognized Joan of Arc as Lily when they met for the first time. of.
Lily has a feeling of aggressiveness, even if she is shy, most of them are probably caused by arrogance.And Joan of Arc is the kind of ordinary girl's heart, after all, she doesn't have any war between Britain and France to intervene now.Of course, Ye Bainian can be sure that if he hadn't come here, she would have gradually grown into the more awe-inspiring saint in his impression, right?
He was very curious, what would happen if Lily and Joan met in the future, it must be very interesting, right?He had a feeling that that day would come soon.
