Chapter 19 Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road
"Wait a minute!"
Just as I was about to knock on the wooden door, Andrew called me quietly. I turned around and looked at him. He said uneasily, "We didn't even say goodbye this morning. Now we are back in such a mess, will they still accept us?"
"I can't care about that, Andrew. Besides, who told you to be in such a hurry to join the army so early in the morning?" My stomach was aching from hunger. I rubbed my stomach and just thought that Andrew, this guy who was too proud to suffer, had farted.
“Dangdangdang”
I gently knocked on the old wooden door of Bella and his wife's house, and I heard a series of footsteps. I thought it was Dr. Bella's wife, Prasvia, because I was very familiar with such hurried footsteps during this period.
"Squeak"
"Who is it?"
The door was opened and we saw Prasvya. The old woman stuck her head out, staring at us with big eyes in horror, "Who are you?" Her speechless expression made us laugh, and we laughed out loud, but out of shyness, we quickly stopped our laughter.
However, the old woman Prasvia heard such a brief laugh, "Oh, it's you two little guys." Prasvia looked us up and down with a smile and said, "I didn't expect you to go out so early in the morning. I thought you were doing something, but it turns out you went to roll in the mud!" Facing Prasvia's rebuke, the two of us really lowered our heads and accepted the punishment like children who had made mistakes.
"Gurgle"
Just as Prasvya was scolding us harshly, my stomach interrupted her words with a deafening protest.
"Oh my God," Prasvya laughed out loud, "Look how hungry you two are! You haven't eaten for a whole day." Andrew and I rubbed our stomachs and nodded repeatedly, "I knew it, after a day of running around, even a strong bull would feel hungry." Prasvya moved aside to make way for us, "Come in, I've been prepared!"
"Ah, there's food!"
When we heard Prasvya say this, our eyes lit up. We didn't have time to say anything more or be polite. We just rushed straight into the house.
"Hey, both of you, keep your voices down and don't disturb others."
"Oh, Prasvya, don't worry, Dr. Bella won't bother with us!"
We found the dining table and took out the stored food from the stove. "Oh, thank God, Luca, look at that, cheesecake!" Andrew said as he quickly took a piece and put it into his mouth, leaving me behind. I couldn't be like him, at least I could wash my hands cleanly. I don't know what the earthy taste in his mouth tastes like?
"Ding-ling-dang."
We both enjoyed our meal very much and didn't care about the noisy noise at all.
"Oh my God, it's just endless! Mom, mom, there are mice in the house!"
A clear and young voice sounded from behind me. I didn't have time to look back because I was desperately stuffing the cake into my mouth. It tasted so good! However, the alert Andrew stopped eating and looked behind him with his eyes wide open. He even forgot to chew the cake in his mouth.
"Oh, Mom, what happened in the kitchen?"
Seeing that no one responded, the voice rang again, and this time I could only hear a series of footsteps coming from far away. I also put down the cake I was still eating and listened carefully. I thought to myself, could it be that the person that Prasvya repeatedly reminded me not to wake up was her! "Hey, it's just that two children came during your absence." Prasvya's voice finally rang, and she continued, "They must be starving. By the way, the young husband I found for you is among them."
"My husband?"
My heart started beating fast when I heard this, and I quickly put down the bread in my hand. Now there was only a thin wall between me and the outside world. Oh no, it couldn't be Dulcinea!
"There are two more people. What a coincidence! I played a prank on two people today. I wonder if those two idiots are dead or alive." As he spoke, he could hear the obvious joy in his voice. "Hey, here come two more people. What a coincidence!"
The hurried footsteps sounded and soon stopped in front of the wooden door of the kitchen. Then the woman would open the door. This might be my future wife. Logically, I should be full of expectations, but when I thought of "Don Quixote", I trembled. I kept chanting "Amitabha" in my heart and making the sign of the cross on my body.
"Squeak"
The door was opened, and what we saw shocked Andrew and me. The girl standing at the door was also shocked. This face, although the hair is messy and looks a bit sloppy, but this face, my God, I can recognize it even if it turns into ashes! Tenaia! Oh, this damn woman! "Luga," Andrew said in a deep voice, "Are you still hungry?"
"No, not only am I not hungry anymore," I slowly stood up and pulled out the iron sword from my waist that I hadn't pulled out all day, "I just feel full of strength now."
"brush!"
Andrew threw down the bread in his hand and stood up suddenly, "What are you waiting for, kill her!"
"Wow!"
This cunning woman reacted very quickly. When she saw the two of us grabbing our weapons, she screamed and ran away! Now is not the time to thank God. Now that God has given us such a great opportunity, we must see how to seize it.

"You can't run away, little lamb! Uhahaha!"
I rushed forward and blocked the wooden door that was about to close. At this time, Tenaia was in front of me. I shook the chain mail that I hadn't taken off in time, and the dirt fell to the ground. Humph, all this is thanks to you, a woman! I took a step and chased all the way. This body is worthy of military training. Even with such a heavy chain mail on my back, I can still walk fast.
Tenaia was still running in front, but there were many chairs blocking the way in such a small room. She could only go around, so she couldn't run very fast. I was different. Relying on my physical advantage, I directly knocked away the obstacles blocking the way and watched Tenaia in front of me open the door and try to run.
“Don’t run!”
I threw away the iron sword, jumped up, and hugged her waist. Humph, this poor woman, before she could even scream, I pushed her to the ground and she fell to the ground. I hope I didn't leave an ugly scar on her beautiful face. Bah, bah, bah, what am I thinking!
"It's so far away, yet so close!" I held her head down, and she struggled, but how could such a weak woman break free from my palm? Andrew, who came after her, saw that the woman was not honest, and did not say anything, and directly put the sword against Tenaia's neck. Phew, now she was much more obedient.
"Tell me, where did you hide our flag?" I asked loudly.
"Oh my God, what are you doing?"
Before I could hear Tenaia's answer, Prasvia screamed behind me. Andrew and I turned around and saw Bella and her husband standing behind us. At this time, the old woman Prasvia fainted, probably because she was too excited. Doctor Bella hurried to catch her. This is good. It seems that the doctor is going to be angry again.
"Hey, what are you two doing?" Doctor Bella yelled, "Luga, she is your future wife, is this how you treat your wife?"
"What?"
I wanted to play dumb, but after thinking it over, I realized I couldn't do that anymore, so I told her the truth: "Oh, old doctor, listen to me, this guy," I pressed Tenaia's head hard, causing her to groan in pain. Then I continued, "She stole my and Andrew's legion flags and locked us in a trap for a whole day!"
