The smoke of gunpowder dissipates and everything is calm.

With his eyes passing through the charred corpses, Su Wen confirmed that no more enemies appeared on the suspension bridge, so while breathing a sigh of relief, he came to the middle-aged man who died first.

The middle-aged man's body and the luxurious robe on his body were burnt by the breath of flames, and it was almost impossible to recognize his original appearance. Su Wen picked up the two steaming flint firing pistols from his hands and on the ground. In the explosion not long ago, the high temperature even ignited the gunpowder in the gun chamber, causing the two guns to fire together. At this time, a small amount of gunpowder combustion products remained at the muzzle.

But that's not the point.

Su Wen played with this pistol for a while and found that it was indeed the principle in his memory - using the sparks generated by flint impact to ignite the gunpowder in the gun chamber, and then pushed out the metal projectiles. These two flint firing pistols were very backward, and they didn't even have the technology of rifling. They would float a little further away, but no matter what, they were indeed the prototype of the popular mechanical guns in ancient and modern times.

Thinking of Donald's words, Su Wen felt that this kind of gun should have appeared on the glorious continent hundreds of years ago, but it seems that it has not been able to develop and become popular until today. There must be some reason for this.

Su Wen observed the surroundings again and confirmed that there was no danger. Then he returned to Helangemire and helped him up from the ground.

"Now no one disturbs us, we can talk."

Su Wen said with a smile.

He had already escaped from the cold-blooded state just now and returned to normal...at least that's what he thought.

Hrangimir murmured with his eyes blank, "What's there to talk about? It's all over, the Summer family is all over."

"Calm down, aren't you there?"

"I?"

Hrangimir laughed bitterly.

"What's the use of me, an old guy? Why didn't you just kill me? Isn't it just a matter of using your strange metal box? Oh, I understand, it's because I asked you to get off the bus halfway. At that time, I was indeed worried that you were killed by the master. He did not do this once or twice, but unfortunately... I still have to repay it in the end."

Su Wen shook his head, then took out a piece of cardboard from his arms and a small pencil.

"That's not the main reason. You have to sign it first and leave your fingerprints to prove that I have completed this mercenary mission, and then I can do it whether you want to die or live."

“…”

After a moment of silence, Hrangimir seemed to have a little more self-deprecating in his tragic smile.

He silently took the mercenary mission report from Su Wen, then signed his name according to Su Wen, and pressed a red fingerprint in the reserved area. At this point, although there was something unexpected in the process, Su Wen still successfully completed the first mercenary mission in his life.

"Then, if nothing happens, I'll leave first." Su Wen put away the report and seemed in a good mood. "I probably can't go back tonight. At least I have to find a town to rest, otherwise it will be troublesome when the sun sets-oh, by the way, there should be no witnesses outside of you today, but just in case, if I'm held accountable, you still need to be a witness, at least tell them that I'm defending myself."

justifiable defense?

Hrangimir looked at the broken bodies burned into charred on the ground, the dark road surface, and the grass still burning, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "What a self-defense."

However, although he was filled with fear of this smiling young man, Hrangimir still called him to leave.

"Mr. Su Wen, are you interested in doing something for me?"

"oh?"

Su Wen stopped naturally.

He had known for a long time that Herangimir would not let him go easily, because in his eyes full of sorrow, Su Wen saw endless despair.

There are also trivial ambitions.

"Are you interested in the story here? If you can get me back to the farm safely, I would be happy to let you sit in the highest-sized guest seat and slowly tell you." As if he had made up some determination, Herangimir stood up hard, pressing the wound on his thigh, holding a half-man-high stone on the side of the road. "Please rest assured, the master does not have many private soldiers under his command - at least not many now, they are all training outside. The power left in the manor, except for the corpses on the ground, is only five patrol posts. In addition to this, all the rest are unarmed servants and slaves, and will not cause any threat."

Su Wen finished listening quietly, then asked, "What about the reward."

"Ten thousand gold coins."

"The price is a little lower than what you get, so if you're sure, I'm afraid I can't give you the best service."

"Fifty thousand gold coins, I will solve all the opposition for me."

Su Wen did not accept it or deny it: "I don't want anything. It is undoubtedly a stupid thing to arbitrarily finalize the price without knowing the truth. And judging from the fact that your owner has built a manor like a small fortress, there must be some shameful secrets here - a secret that even if you are willing to kill strangers close to you. So, do you think I'm short of gold coins?"

Hrangimir subconsciously shook his head.

"Since there is no shortage, why should I take this risk? Not only that, the so-called secret here is not attractive to me. Why would you give me another reason to accompany you into the farm?"

Hrangimir was speechless.

Su Wen chuckled: "You are not a person who is good at ambition, but after discovering that the only two people in the farm who have more power than you died, you understand what you should do, right?"

"Yes, after all, we have to continue to operate... Those shameful secrets also need me to end them."

"As much as I thought, you are not a natural villain, and you are loyal. Otherwise, you would have been replaced by such a stingy master." Su Wen said, glancing at the burnt corpse lying on the middle of the road. "After seeing your master and lady die, you feel that you have a great responsibility, so you subconsciously stand on the opposite side of theirs-or on the opposite side of the farm, so you want me to help you get in, sweep away those discordant voices, and get the position you deserve."

Faced with such direct words, Hrangimir sighed: "You are right."

"But this is useless. If I were you, I would understand that someone would take the blame for this kind of thing. Standing on the opposite side forcing the blame is to put the blame on yourself, and may temporarily suppress the deterioration of the situation. But unless you are the only one in the farm, you will be overthrown sooner or later. Because as long as they stand on the side of your dead master, they will have sufficient reasons to attack you."

“…”

Hrangimir fell into silence again, as if thinking seriously.

"So, today's thing was actually done by a magician who was close to the advanced level. As for the specific reasons, just make up for it. Do you understand what I mean?"

Su Wen walked to Herangimir, pulled out a black semi-arched dagger, and then stabbed the wound on his thigh in confusion and horror, and pinned the bullet between flesh and bones. While using the latter's clothes to wipe the blood on the dagger, he continued: "You are the victim, but you survived because you are lucky. Try to make yourself miserable, don't be seen that you can still jump around."

Hrangimir endured the severe pain in his thighs and nodded heavily. After all, he was a person who had lived for most of his life. How could Su Wen not understand the truth when he said this?

"That's good."

Su Wen put away the dagger with satisfaction and left: "The consultation fee is waived. Even if I don't say it, you should be able to think of this layer, but you haven't calmed down yet."

He ignored Helan Kimir, who was sitting on the ground with his thighs covered, and Suwen walked towards a horse that was lowering his head and eating grass on the edge of the river. The brown horse broke free from the reins of the carriage while running just now, and thus survived. As for his companion, he had already been buried in the fire.

The horse turned over and fisted the brown horse that he wanted to throw him off, and the latter immediately ran honestly towards the road when he came.

...

It is difficult to find towns in the wilderness, especially Su Wen did not have time to study the map of the Sironallando province. However, since you can see a large area of ​​farmland, it means that there must be people nearby. Su Wen successfully found the nearest town under the guidance of local farmers.

Su Wen originally planned to spend the night in the town and wait until the next day to go back during the day. But if you think about it carefully, it is only less than a hundred kilometers away from Hongfeng Town. It does take a long time to stalk in a carriage, but if you ride a horse, it will only take at most three or four hours. In addition, when you go out, you told Liticia to go back tonight, so he finally changed his mind and had a simple meal in the town and fed the horses, and embarked on a journey of return.

Although he earned 100 gold coins, Su Wen was still very distressed - even though he didn't know the value of the Three Fireball Rings, he knew that he must have lost. The only gain from this trip was probably two finely crafted flint firing pistols, but compared with the Glock 18 in the pocket of the leather armor, these two weapons are not much different from the fire stick.

With his memory of the road, Su Wen basically did not go wrong, but by the time he saw Hongfeng Town from afar, it was already night.

The sky is misty and the moon is almost invisible.

For some reason, when passing through the entrance of the town, Su Wen suddenly felt a little palpitations, as if something bad would happen.

This premonition that cannot be described by reason is not the first time. Almost every time it is accompanied by bad things, such as the time when I was rushing to death in the suburbs that night, I was stabbed to death by a robber when I was rushing to death. This feeling of palpitations was very strong.

Driven by this premonition, Su Wen clamped the horses under him, increased his speed, and soon returned to the temporary residence in Hongfeng Town.

The gate to the yard is open!

Sure enough, something happened!

Su Wen turned over and dismounted, rushed into the yard in two steps. There was no Liticia inside, but he immediately saw a small cloth boot outside the main entrance, which was Liticia's shoes.

Su Wen's mind buzzed. He pushed open the door of the same void, and then saw a chaotic scene like being robbed - the floor cabinet was overturned, and all the debris in the drawer were thrown on the ground; the original silver ornaments in the living room were forcibly smashed down and taken away; the coffee table that Liticia specially sorted out was lifted to the center of the living room, and the bottles and jars on it were broken all over the floor...

However, Liticia is still not there.

Su Wen knew that it was not rare to rob and capture slaves in the glorious continent where alien races were treated as lowly as goods. But he never expected that such a thing would happen in the seemingly safe Red Maple Town, and the other party would actually kidnap Liticia.

An extremely dangerous aura gradually emanated from Su Wen. He had no time to care about the chaos in the ground and rushed directly to his room on the second floor.

On the windowsill, the bottle containing Xiao Shi was still there. Su Wen grabbed the bottle and walked into the bathroom, turned the faucet to the maximum, and then poured all the things in the bottle in.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, Xiao Shi, who was transparent all over the body, quickly split in the bathtub, as if he was as anxious as Su Wen.

"dad!"

Soon, Su Wen heard a vague shouting, and as Xiaoshi's proliferation bodies in the bathtub became more and more, the sound became clearer.

"Go and save your mother quickly. Those bastards walked north in a carriage. It's only less than half an hour now!"

Su Wen turned around and rushed out of the bathroom without even giving an answer, and ran out of the residence. He could only be glad that he had not come back too late and there was still a chance in everything. If he really stayed in the Sironalando province, he would set off tomorrow... The consequences were unimaginable, and he would probably regret it for the rest of his life.

No matter what, Su Wen knew that this matter was definitely not over.

However……

He had just turned over and rode a horse that had not breathed a few breaths. When he was about to rush towards the north of Hongfeng Town, he suddenly saw two figures coming towards the street in the distance.

"Litsisa?!"

Su Wen shouted.
Chapter completed!
