Among the 8 bandits, Weiss knocked them all over the ground without even using them for a minute. The absolute gap in strength made them unable to stand up after being kicked by Weiss. In fact, it was impossible for these guys whose chests and faces had completely sunken in their arms could get up again.

Including these 8, there are already three digits of bandits that Weis has killed in the past three days! At first glance, he is a serious crime, but in fact, more refugees have been rescued indirectly, so Weis said there is no pressure. Ling Lan did not think that Weis's actions were inappropriate. After all, before leaving the door, her master Li Tongchen specifically reminded her that if she meets a villain, she must not be lenient. If you can kill someone, don't leave a living. If you are a hero, you should have such a ruthless spirit!

OK! Such a "tiger" master is really a "real man"!?

After knocking down a few scumbags, Weiss skillfully began to "touch the body". He didn't have much dry food for new purchases, but it was enough for them to eat for 1 or 2 days. At this time, Weiss noticed that the refugee family was all looking at him with panic, so he picked up the standard saber of the scar-faced man and handed it to the middle-aged uncle with a knife and sheath.

"Hold it! Keep yourself on the way."

"You...you..."

"Don't worry, we have no malicious intentions."

After taking the knife handed over by Weis, the middle-aged uncle seemed a little at a loss. It was not until his wife and children pulled the corner of his clothes that he came to his senses. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something to Weis, but hesitated for a long time without saying a word. Weis looked at his mouth and said to the family with a smile.

"Thank you, it's just a matter of raising your hands."

After doing a "good thing", Weiss and Ling Lan turned around happily, preparing to leave a back "hidden merit and fame", and then continued to rush. But before they walked far, they found that the family of four was following them, as if seeking protection.

"Wright, they seem to be following us all the time?"

"It doesn't seem to be following us, I'm indeed following us. I probably think it's safer to follow us."

"So should we help them?"

"No need, just let them follow like this. Too many helps, it's easy to get into trouble."

"oh!"

Perhaps he had heard this allusion, Ling Lan nodded. Like Weiss, he did not deliberately show his actions to help the family. He just slowed down his speed to follow them at a distance and near. The two walked until the sun started to get vicious the next day and found a secluded forest to rest. They simply ate some dry food, then held the weapon and closed their eyes and took a nap for a while.

I don’t know how long I had been sleeping, but the two of them vaguely heard footsteps approaching. Their nerves that had not relaxed made them subconsciously point the weapons in their hands in the direction of the sound, but then they were both stunned.

"Uh... girl, who are you?"

The one who appeared in front of Weiss and Ling Lan was a freckled girl who had never seen before, dressed in a standard "village girl" dressed in her hand and was holding a small basket full of food. Seeing Weiss and Ling Lan suddenly facing each other at their swords, they were frightened and fled in panic, which made Weiss and Ling Lan a little confused.

"This is a situation!?" x2

The two were confused. After a while, the village girl who had just run away led an old man back. The old man who looked about 60 years old first took off his hat and stroked the two of them with a tribute, and then said respectfully.

"Hello, two kind-hearted strong men."

"Hello, old man, who are you?" Weiss asked in confusion.

"I, Quinn, is the representative of everyone's recommendation. I am willing to take the initiative. Can you please ask me to protect us? Here are some money and food we raise. I hope you don't dislike me. We will never forget our great kindness."

After the other party finished speaking, he bowed to Weiss and Ling Lan again, which made both of them feel a little uncomfortable. Weiss's eyes bypassed the old man and found that there were people outside the forest. He said that he had gathered at least 180 years and probably they gathered together during rest.

There were so many people suddenly appearing, and Weiss couldn't help but be too big. If it were only for the four of that family, then he and Ling Lan could have some way to protect their comprehensiveness, but if they were both "military-level" experts, they would probably be under great pressure.

A large number of people means "large goals", difficult to hide and easy to expose. Weiss really wants to tell these people that if they are willing to "break the whole into pieces", the chances of survival may be greater, but these refugees affected by the "herd effect" may have been trapped by the false "sense" brought by the group, and it is impossible to listen to his advice.

Tickling his head, Weisfa felt that this matter suddenly became a bit tricky! Reason told him that he should decisively throw these "restraints" away. It was enough to just take the spearman girl who was very "capable" in various senses, but the human nature that he had never abandoned stopped him from doing so. After thinking for a long time, Weiss was trapped by this "unsolvable" problem.

If you want to escape to Xiyanzhou, you must cross the Orlando River, which divides two continents. When the Witt Empire was still "surviving", in order to prevent the Aaron Empire, which had a strong desire to expand on the other side, the emperor spent a huge amount of money to build a "defense belt". Not only did it build a city wall that stretched thousands of miles along the river, but it also built fortresses in all areas suitable for crossing the river. After the empire collapsed, these city walls and fortresses are now owned by three principalities, and "White Deer" is one of them.

If only Weiss and Ling Lan were the only two, it would be impossible to find a way to smuggle while the White Deer Duke was in chaos. But if there were more refugees who were just ordinary people, unless they could cross the entire fortress defenders and then drive the ferry over, there would be no chance of success. Therefore, Weiss felt that some of the words were better.

"Old man, I'm afraid my companion and I can't agree to this, because we can't protect so many of you just by the words of the two of us. There is no problem with ordinary bandits, but if we encounter those rebels, we may not even be able to protect ourselves. Please forgive me for not making a promise for things that cannot be done."

"Young man, you're very honest! I know this..." Morgan nodded, showed a slightly bitter smile, then looked at the looking forward gaze behind him, and suddenly said in a voice that only he and Weis could hear.

"...But I still need your 'protection', even if it's just pretending."

"What does it mean!?" Weiss and Ling Lan were both confused by Morgan's words. Weiss seemed to understand something, but Ling Lan completely didn't understand the other party's intentions. Save money and take out precious food to hire them as bodyguards, but they just need to "pretend" them? If this is in Donglinzhou or other developed countries, there will indeed be rich children hiring some inexperienced "pseudo-masters" to show off, but the old man named Morgan in front of him is obviously not those idle and frustrated rich second generations.

Seeing that both young people were puzzled, Morgan explained the reason for them.

"Young people, you should know that if a person wants to move forward, in addition to surviving the throne, he also needs to have the courage to support this throne. In order to survive, more than 300 people in our village have fled to this point, and the rest is less than half. He still has the strength to rush forward, but the courage to continue is almost gone."

"Is there really no other way? Is the other principalities around me not?"

"It's useless. The capital located in the south is the main target of the rebels, and it's impossible to get over there." Weiss explained to Ling Lan.

"Some people hope to find a valley to hide and wait until the war is over before coming out, but there is no place for the White Deer Principality to hide? If you don't run for your life, even if the bandits and rebels don't kill us, we will still not survive this winter if we can't grow food! I am old and I'm not afraid of death after living enough, but I can't let these children get buried with my old bones, right?"

"But even if you reach the border, it would be useless if you can't cross the river."

This problem of Westie also bothers them. As the boundary river that divides the continent, the Orlando River is known as the three major rivers in the world, along with the "Yangtze River" in Donglinzhou and the "Cold River" in Beishuangzhou. The narrowest part of the river is nearly 17 kilometers wide, and some sections are even more than 200 kilometers. It is probably not an exaggeration to say that it is the "inland sea". Such a wide river is not easy to cross!

It is not known at present that the border defenders of the Duchy of Bailu had turned toward which son of the Duchy of Bailu. Weiss felt that even if the guards were armed with troops, it was not impossible for them to be independent. Even if these refugees successfully walked to the Sunset Fortress on the border, they were afraid that they would be arrested by the defenders, either stuffed into the refugee camp or sent to be coolies.

"I went to the boat and went to the bridge head, so I..."
