Chapter 63 Recognition
The man's name was Quanzi. He was wearing a dirty, torn white prison uniform and an iron helmet. He was short and thin. He slowly put down the arrow in his hand, stood on the ladder, and with the cover of the eaves, he showed his eyes, half-squinting and staring at the gate carefully.
After a while, I realized that the black-clothed man holding the sword looked a bit like Jingyi's figure and posture? ?
Is the person next to you a lady?
Or is it Keiji?
Thinking of this, his eyes lit up with joy.
However, the scene where the man crushed the arrow with his bare hands just now replayed in his mind.
The other party also awakened his divine power!
You can go up at will.
At this moment, a quiet but dignified voice suddenly came from behind him, and only he could hear it: "Quanzi, why are the robbers outside still shooting arrows? What are you doing standing there like an idiot?"
Quan Zi, an archer, doesn't know how to express that there is a possible lady outside!
He just hooked his finger at the captain of the guard, pointed at the ladder, and signaled him to climb up.
The captain of the guards had a sturdy build, also wearing a torn prisoner uniform, with a square face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a short nose, and dark skin. After hearing Quanzi's words, he climbed up the ladder as nimbly as a monkey and stood still.
The captain of the guards peeked out and found that he had better eyesight and often saw the young lady. He recognized at a glance that the one in white was the young lady!
He was a little cruel and slapped Quanzi on the shoulder, who was beside him. Quanzi gasped.
"What's wrong with the captain of the guards?" Quanzi rubbed his shoulders with a bitter face.
The chief guard said fiercely: "You big monkey, you archer! That's the lady!"
"Go to the cave and tell everyone!"
Because the twenty awakened guards and maids had all gone out to look for food, and the remaining ones were guarding somewhere else, Quanzi knew how to shoot arrows, so he was on duty to deal with the intruders.
"Okay!" When Quanzi heard this, he slid down the ladder excitedly and ran towards the cave next to the woodshed in the backyard.
The head guard stood on the ladder and shouted at the two people at the door: "Miss, Miss, is that you?"
Across from them was a collapsed yard.
Xie Zhizhi smiled when she heard the voice. As expected, she guessed right. He actually went back to the general's mansion. It was she who was looking for him.
She took a step or two back, using the wall beside the door as a cover. With a thought, two flesh balls appeared in the space and were carried on her back.
Jing Lan felt that the man's voice sounded familiar, a bit like the captain of the guards!
With a tiptoe, he stepped over the hailstones on the ground and approached the place where the sound came from. He stood on the high point of the pavilion, looked out, and said calmly: "Captain of the Guards? It's really you. Did you run back from the suburbs on your own?"
The captain of the guards saw that Jing Er had finally confirmed it, and flew down the ladder and came directly in front of the young lady, and Jing Lan also returned to her side.
"Yes, after hearing the news that the dog emperor had died suddenly and the hailstorm, I and the others escaped together! Miss, let's go to the cave first, just in case it rains or hail again."
Xie Zhizhi had some impression of this chief guard. A few days ago, he cursed one of the imperial guards at the door of the study.
"good."
She and Jing Lan followed the captain of the guards to the cave he mentioned.
The captain of the guards saw that the young lady was intact, gave Jingyi a thumbs up, and said excitedly: "Jinger, you made the right decision to take the young lady away in advance. The general must be very pleased in heaven." As he spoke, he choked up and wiped his tears-filled eyes.
Jing Lan faced the praise calmly: "This is my mission."
The chief guard nodded solemnly and continued, "It is our mission to protect the young lady."
Xie Zhizhi seems to have listened to what they said. Why does it look so much like a pyramid scheme?
He coughed twice to interrupt their flattery.
Looking at the ruins of the yard that originally belonged to the people, one of the plots of land had been turned into a cave by them, and on top of it was still a sturdy iron shield that could resist hail. No one knew where they got it from.
"Miss, if you want to give up, just follow me."
"No." She saw the captain of the guards open the hole and asked him, "There are more than two dozen servants, guards and maids in the general's mansion. Have they all come back with you?"
The captain of the guard paused, then fell silent. He climbed up the ladder and saw his companions sitting on the ground. He replied, "Yes, there were too few people. When the hail hit, many people were injured, and some were killed directly..."
"But some people were miraculously resurrected and recovered from their wounds. Thirty-three servants and guards died in our general's mansion, and the remaining eighteen people awakened a magical power. Some controlled water and killed people with water balls, and some controlled ice cones and killed people with ice cones. However, we all returned to the general's mansion safely because there were too many criminals on the road."
"There are now 189 people with injuries and illnesses."
