Chapter 345 The Last Request of the Holy Maiden (Day 9 of Riwan)(1/2)

Bereth snorted coldly, held up the sword with both hands, and used the hilt of the sword to slam the two of them into the mouths of the two, smashing their teeth a few times.

The guard hurried over, and Bereth waved his hand and ordered: "Cut off the tongues of the two, and then behead them!"

"yes!"

...

Put out the flames from the farm, clean the mess, and the guards gathered together again.

Xu Mu rode his horse, and Sreta was still sitting against his chest.

"Beres, how are we losing our battle?"

"Master, one injured, no death appeared." Bereth hesitated, as if a little embarrassed.

Xu Mu nodded, which shows that everyone's training is excellent in normal times. After the hunter lost his courage, he did not underestimate the enemy and died in vain.

Of course, the main reason is that the cavalry has too much impact, and no infantry can withstand the trampling of the knights. If Bereth and others had not wanted to protect the lives of the civilians in the farm, they would not have been dismounted to fight.

Seeing Bereth's face awkward, Xu Mu was surprised: "What's wrong? Look at your expression."

Bereth coughed: "Go back to the master, the injured guard... was the injury that unfortunately fell from the horse."

As soon as these words were said, everyone suddenly became embarrassed, and Xu Mu narrowed his eyes and leaned back.

Sreta searched carefully and immediately found the injured guard in it. It looked like the face was not from the Bere family, but a member of the city gang.

When Nochi saw Sreta looking, he couldn't help but feel sorry. After all, the city's gang is under his control, although the command of the team was in Bereth's hands after the war.

But something happened to my members, and this is still the case. I feel embarrassed for Sreta.

The members of the city gang are basically slaves, and although they go on a daily tour, they will also perform some violent and bloody tasks.

However, this is different from the battlefield, which made some members of the city gang excited and fussy, so they made mistakes and fell off the horse.

"Okay, nothing happens, it's a good thing." Xu Mu waved his hand, "We now know the location of the temple tour lineup. We must arrive at Bofei Town as soon as possible!"

"Wait a minute, master!"

"What's wrong?"

"What should we do about these civilians?"

At this time, Xu Mu realized that at some point, the surviving civilians had gathered together, with dusty faces and sad expressions. His home and relatives were brutally killed by the enemy, and even if they were rescued, sadness still filled his heart.

Seeing Xu Mu, everyone knelt down and bowed.

Xu Mu held the reins and was silent.

Now they know the location of the Saint, and they need to march urgently. If they bring civilians in distress, the speed of the march will probably slow down...

But now the farm has been almost destroyed, so it is basically unrealistic for them to stay and reorganize the farm. There is no place to live. Isn’t it just a chronic death for them?

Xu Mu thought, but the civilians didn't dare to look up. Everyone knew that their lives were in Xu Mu's hands now.

Seeing that there were many children among the civilians, the children were young and ignorant, Sreta knelt down after pressing their family.

But these children will still look up and look around.

Her face was a little troubled, and then she said, "Brother... can't you take them away?"

"If this is the way back to the capital, of course I don't mind... But we are now on the way to the battlefield, and there may be any battles at any time. Especially with them, the speed of the march..."

Afterwards, Xu Mu believed Sreta would understand.

Sreta couldn't help but sigh, yes, they are still rushing to see the Saint, looking for whether Sister Ailu is with the Saint.

After all, the hunter just said that Ai Lu didn't seem to be in the lineup of the saint...

Xu Mu turned his head and looked at Bereth: "Beres, how did you deal with this situation in the past during the war?"

"This..." Bereth hesitated, and then slowly said: "It's basically let them survive on their own..."

Xu Mu frowned: "Then I escort them to the next town and then leave them there to live, won't it?"

Bereth opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end she stopped. It seemed that she was taboo.

"Say whatever you have."

"Master...the major towns will basically not accept civilians in distress. After all, this will increase the number of begging people in the town, make it difficult for towns to manage, and theft and violence will also increase."

Xu Mu suddenly realized that the civilians who did not enter the town to live in the city were scattered all over the kingdom and lived in farms because they lived in poverty?

Where do they have the money to start their identity certificates when they are poor?

Without identity certificates, that is a pariah! You can't find a job in a town, you can only steal things...

This incident couldn't help but sting in Xu Mu and Sreta's hearts.

Didn’t the two brothers and sisters be untouchables before? They could only make a living by stealing things...

Sreta subconsciously looked up at Xu Mu, and Xu Mu happened to look down at Sreta.

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but smile, as if they both saw the answer in each other's eyes.

"Beres."

"Master, you said."

"Let the guards take off their armor and put the armor back on the load-bearing car! Then each guard immediately brings a civilian on board! I want to escort them to the next town to live."

When the civilian heard this, he immediately raised his head and showed surprise.

Seeing Xu Mu's choice, Bereth couldn't help but let go of his heart, but asked again: "Master, what if the people in the town refuse to accept it? After all, when I was a Cavaliers in the Cavaliers, when I encountered these things, Lord Anna let the civilians survive and wander... I know that Lord Anna did this as a monthly solution."

"Beres, you're a big shot." Xu Mu smiled calmly, "I'm not Anna, nor is Anna! Anna cares about the views of the nobles, but I don't care! If they don't accept the civilians in distress, I have their own way to let them accept it!"

As soon as these words came out, they shocked the guards' hearts.

Bereth also came out of it. Yes, Anna is a local nobleman of the Heine Kingdom. Although she serves the Heine royal family, it depends on the expressions of the nobles.

But Xu Mu is different. Most nobles dare not provoke Xu Mu now. It would be nice if Xu Mu didn't provoke them!

Just as Xu Mu said, if the leader of the town dares not accept refugees, Xu Mu will naturally have many ways to let them accept it!

Xu Mu pulled the reins and asked the horse to turn around and look at the civilians: "Get up and don't kneel anymore!"

"Yes! Honorable Captain Knights! Thank you for your life-saving grace!"

"It is my duty to save you." Xu Mu smiled indifferently, "I need you to promise me something before I take you away."

The civilians stood up and looked at each other, but they all listened carefully.

"Enter the town and start a new life. You can't steal or force it to disrupt the lives of local town civilians!"

The civilians dared not think too much, so they responded quickly.

But after answering, they were stunned again, which meant that they could only beg for a living when they arrived in the town...

"Don't worry, I'll arrange yours when I get to the place." Xu Mu didn't say much, pulled up the reins and took Sreta to leave the farm first.

On the way back to the carriage, Sreta looked up and asked, "Brother, didn't you say that taking them on foot will slow down the marching?"

"If I don't take them away, maybe I will regret it for the rest of my life." Xu Mu sighed, "No matter what, I really let me leave them alone, I feel sorry for it..."

Sreta showed a cute smile and leaned against Xu Mu: "Brother is still as gentle as before."

Xu Mu was much happier when he was praised: "Actually, there is no suitable or not... I know Anna's previous practice was just to weigh the pros and cons and make the most appropriate choice. After all, even if Anna took them to the town like me and asked the other party to accept refugees, it was just to make the civilians in distress become beggars and still unable to survive, but they died slowly in another place... just like when we used to."

"Yes... I heard that they went to town and lived like we used to..." Sreita sighed. "If Sreita wanted to be the same as before, and had no idea of ​​anything, and had no title of power or noble, I might do nothing when I saw them."

"But Sreta, we can survive and rise step by step, and we are destined to have a principled bottom line in our hearts."

"I know...brother. By the way, brother, since you have chosen to bring them with you, it seems that you have a way to make the civilians in distress survive in the town with peace of mind?"

"Of course." Xu Mu smiled, "Brother will teach you a lesson in person this time!"

"What's the reason?"

"Anna met civilians in distress before, and chose to give up on them after weighing the pros and cons. But I will give the choice of weighing the pros and cons to others."

"I didn't understand." Sreta tilted her head.

"You will understand then!"

......

Four days later, Bofei Town.

The hygiene in Bofei Town has never been better before, but since the temple tour arrived, under the forced request of the Saint Maiden, the hygiene standards in the town have been greatly improved.

Now if you are found to be free from the town and streets, you will be fined.

At this time, the saint was sitting on the bench with annoyance on his face, looking uneasy.

The gate of the temple opened, and walked into the soldiers who were armed with weapons. Looking at the carved patterns on their chests, they were subordinates of the nobles in the fiefdom of Bofei Town.

He hurried to the saint to salute: "Sir, Saint!"

The saint seemed to have just come back to his senses and looked up at the soldier: "Is there any news about Ai Lu?"

The soldier looked embarrassed: "Sir Saint... There is no news about Miss Ailu for the time being..."

When the saint heard this, her head swelled and ached. She rubbed her forehead with her fingers and slowly stood up from the bench.
To be continued...
