Pivot of the Sky

Chapter 46: 040, The Prairie Under the Curtain of Night

Some are even wondering if this guy has taken some noble beauty slave and snuck out of Hattie to Baron? Others thought, "If I had such a beautiful and beautiful slave, I would have dressed her beautifully, but not shown to others, just to show myself... In fact, nothing is the most beautiful thing to wear, hugging her to bed is the most soulful enjoyment in the world."

Amon drank his wine, and the people in the tavern thought indiscriminately, and finally a drunken voice shouted, “Outsiders, did you kidnap this girl? ”

Amon looked up and replied, "It was she who brought me to this town to look for the lost sheep. ”

Yoon Nanna said with a smile: “I was not abducted by him, I brought him here, he was a good person who helped me. ”

Then the hotel owner rushed over and persuaded him: "He's drunk, don't mind!” Then the boss ran over to talk to the drunk, afraid that the incorrect speech would cause some conflict, and smashed something in the tavern.

Amon felt something wrong with the atmosphere around him, and some corners looked at him with unknown hostility, and he no longer wanted to be here. This poor glass of copper coin isn't as tasty as the wild fruit wines made in the Caveman tribe. He drank quickly and Yoon Nanna stood beside him and poured the wine. After drinking, Amon put down his glass and said, "Boss, what is the most expensive wine you have here? ”

The boss was surprised again and walked from the back of the counter to the table with a fine bottle of copper: “This is the best wine we have in the store, only two bottles, one for a silver coin. ”

When Amon reached out and touched the big leather pocket, he found that all three silver coins removed beforehand were useless, with only twenty broken copper coins. So he pulled out his pocket and opened it and took out two silver coins: “I want both bottles, how much is this pot? ”

That's cheap! The bottle of wine the boss brought Amon knew, the same bottle his father gave him when he left Duke town, to sell fifteen silver coins in his hometown, and only one silver coin was needed here. Amon didn't buy it for himself, he didn't drink, and both bottles were for Schrödinger.

The boss's eyes were a little straight and he reached out and touched his forehead like he was wiping sweat. He nodded, "You bought two bottles of wine, that pot was for free, no money! ”

Amon went to town today and always had an extra harvest, bought clothes for two pairs of shoes, bought sheep for a whip rope, bought wine for a bottle of wine for nothing. But he didn't like the town. He just wanted to send Yoon Nanna back and cross the river to the east. At least he knows one thing here: many parts of the world outside the mountains are really very different from Tucker Town.

Amon put two bottles of wine in his big leather pocket and Schrödinger shrunk inside to take a nap. He left the tavern with Yoon Nanna.

……

Two outsiders left, but the tavern owner still stood still for half a day. Someone shouted, “Schutter, what's wrong with you? Did the slave snatch your soul? Why don't you talk about it and buy her for a lot of money? I wonder how much such a beautiful slave is worth. ”

Another voice also shouted: "The outsider drank the cheapest wine himself, but bought two bottles of the most expensive wine to take away. Is it for the slave at night? He is really nice to the slave, if I can afford a slave like this, I will also feed her such expensive wine! ”

The owner of the hotel, Schutter, finally looked back and shouted, “Buy her? Guess what I just saw? It's a magic stone, and there's more than one! It's in the boy's purse! ”

Amon didn't want to show off when he just paid for it. He just opened his pocket and no one else could see what was in it. But the boss standing next to him instantly saw the glow of the Divine Stone. This situation is so weird, the divine stone is a noble symbol. How can a man with a large number of divine stones drink a cup of bad wine with a copper coin?

The atmosphere in the tavern boiled down, and people started talking out loud, and the story of the outsiders was translated into another version ——

The young man is supposed to be a servant of some grand aristocracy who stole the owner's money and stole the beautiful female slave and ran away quietly. The slave should be loved by the original owner. Everything is best eaten and worn. The young man has been very hard pressed to pay for this. And this young man himself is stingy and doesn't want to spend too much money to arouse suspicion, or he's just a poor man who doesn't know how to spend money.

Someone starts drunkenly breaking their fingers and counting, a divine stone worth twenty gold coins, a gold coin worth twenty silver coins, a silver coin worth a hundred copper coins, and the dress the young man buys for the girl is sixty copper coins. How many of those dresses can a stone buy? The correct answer is 666. Forty more copper coins.

No one can figure it out. In short, there are a lot of them. People think that the dress Amon bought for Yoon Nanna is too cheap. There was a magic stone in his pocket, but he bought a dress worth only sixty copper coins for such a beautiful girl. The boy's money must be in trouble.

No one noticed that in the speculative debate of a bunch of drunk people, at the best, biggest and cleanest table in the corner, two people whispered a few words and hurried out the bill.

……

Amon asked out of town, "Yoon Nanna, where do you live and where should I send you? ”

Yoon Nanna: “As soon as you meet me, my sheep circle is not far from there, I can walk back myself. ”

Amon thought, "Well, I'll send you to where you came from and take your lamb home quickly. ”

Halfway back, the sky is getting darker. Half-wheeled moon rises to reveal undulating grass slopes in tranquil moonlight, and night is another gentle and tranquil beauty.

If the experience in the town just now is a little unpleasant, it has long been forgotten in the beautiful view of this good day. It is naturally impossible to walk too fast in the moonlight. The two are like walking together, Yoon Nanna still has a lamb in her hand.

Not far under the moonlight, Amon suddenly looked down and stood still. Yoon Nanna curiously asked: “What's wrong with you, are you tired again? ”

Amon shook his head: "No, someone is staring at us. ”

Yoon Nanna revealed a panicked look: “In the middle of the night, how come there are people here? Where? Why didn't I see them? ”

Amon: “There's one in the front and one in the back, and it's supposed to be coming for us.... Yoon Nanna, you don't have to be afraid. I'll just send them away. I'll send you back safely. ”

After speaking, he unwrapped Yoon Nanna's waist and drank with his iron branch cane high around him: “If you're here, why are you hiding there? I don't know you, I don't owe you money. Why bring weapons in the middle of the night? ”

There was a cold laugh coming from the front, two people came out, the man in front had a long sword, and the man in the back actually had a staff. The sceptrer shouted: "Outsiders, you stole the master's money, abducted the slave, and dare to waver in Sumerian town? ”

The swordbearer drank: "We don't give a shit, we leave a wallet and a woman slave, and we can spare your life! ”

With the sound of speech, three people also came out on the back slope, with axes and sticks in their hands, apparently ill-intentioned. Yoon Nanna shrank next to Amon in horror and whispered: “Don't believe their words, they want to take your money and want to take me away, they will surely kill you. How can this kind of thing be communicated to people? ”

Amon wasn't scared. The first thing he thought of was Ma Qi, a third-degree samurderer who tried to kill himself in the black fire jungle but was killed by an old lunatic. The second thought came up with three things that the old lunatic told him, first of all, don't kill easily, even if you have to kill, use the least amount of power possible.

He asked strangely, "People across the street, are you a magician with a staff? If you're a magician, why are you doing this? ”

At the end of the sentence, there was a slightly panicked cry: “Young Master Wennu, he recognized you and can't let him go again! ”

The swordsman drank angrily: "Hanselm, shut up!” Then he turned to Ammon and said, "Now that you know there is a noble magician here, turn in your money bag and your slaves and ask forgiveness for your crimes! ”

The gang has very little experience as a bandit, and this is the first time they have been involved in financial manslaughter. The first two were the sons of the Mayor of Sumerian, his brother Gaye, a second-degree samurai, and his brother Winnu, a first-degree magician. The town of Summer is certainly not comparable to the town of Duke, which produces important strategic goods, so the mayor's position is not very high, just the lowest nobility in the Kingdom of Baron.

The mayor sent his youngest son to a nearby city to study theology, spending almost half of his family's money, and Winnu became a first-degree magician. This time he came home from the city state and asked his father for money to bribe the clergy again, trying to find a priest position in the city state temple.

But the mayor's father was reluctant to give so much more money, and he persuaded his son to be a priest in the town's temple. Anyway, to talk about it collapsed, Winnu's money was really hard to get out of the house for a moment, so he dragged his brother Guy to the pub for a drink and let out his depressing emotions.

In the pub, they saw Amon and Yoon Nanna, and when they found out that Amon actually had a lot of money, they moved their minds. When people drink too much, they get bolder. They want to do the trick of murdering with money. Once the brothers have negotiated, they decide to return the money to their younger brother. The beautiful slave belongs to his older brother.

The brothers decided to leave the town with three strong servants with their weapons, and they walked faster than Amon, blocking Amon from the shortcut.

It is the first time that a servant has not drunk alcohol and has done this evil trick, inevitably a little timid. As soon as Ammon mentioned the magician, the servant named Hansem thought he recognized Winnu. There was only one magician in Sumerian, and no one had to mention his name to know who he was. Guy scolded the panicked servant and had waited for Amon to kneel down and beg for forgiveness.

“Leave now with your weapons, I choose to forgive you!” Amon suddenly coldly said something that no one thought of, in his voice there was an unnamed majesty, like a noble priest or even a god.

Don't look at Amon's age, but he is very dignified when he is serious. This temperament was cultivated unconsciously. Don't forget that he has always been a god in the Cave Wildlings tribe. Amon doesn't like to set the score himself, but the cat shelf next to him is bigger than anyone else. Can you learn from watching Schrödinger every day?

Winnu and Guy were both surprised, and even had a flash of illusion - Amon was like a princess in a private interview, and they thought it was ridiculous, and who would walk the night in grass shoes?

Gaihaha laughed, as if he was bold for himself, lifting his sword and greeting him: “Outsiders, you are looking for death! Under article 18 of the Code of the Kingdom of Baron, civilians are given the death penalty for the theft or abduction of slaves of others! Here, let me do it. ”

Amon feared that he would hurt Yoon Nanna, and didn't want to wait for everyone to come around to do it. He waved the iron branch cane forward and hit it over, targeting Guy's shoulder. Ammon's staff looks like a common branch, and when it swings, it's nothing unusual.

Guy's face is full of laughter. Although his sword is not the best horse leather steel, it is also made of sharp fine iron, which cost him fifteen silver coins! The outsider actually attacked him with a branch, maybe to show off, suddenly drank a loud sword with both hands, slanted the "branch," trying to cut Amon into two sections with a sword attached to the branch.

He uses a lot of power, and this sword and foot can break a tree, not to mention a dead branch. But the sword chopped on the branches, but the sound of metal collision, the darkness of the night drew a bright Mars, a thundering shock, the elongated fine iron sword was actually raw interrupted.

The deformed half-cutting tip flew out, and the other half-cutting with the blade handle fell off his hands, and Guy's tiger mouth cracked. Amon's “branches” struck the sword looking light, but with a shock and strange tremor, diverging shock waves drilled straight into his body, Guy's half body was numb, his voice couldn't even scream.

Amon's staff broke the fine iron long sword, seemed unimpeded and unaffected, continued to wave a little bit at Guy's right shoulder socket, emitted an audible “puff” slightly, no flesh-flying scene, but Guy's body softened to the ground. He is a second-degree samurai, and Amon uses the power of the second-degree samurai, which is the mining technique of Duke Town, but not with a hammer, but with a stick, and not with a core.

Amon's defeat of Guy is just one blow, but it reflects the perfect combination of speed, power, agility and accuracy. He is not skilled in martial arts, and no one can teach him all kinds of fighting skills on the battlefield. He also goes hunting while practicing physical arts in cave wildlings tribes, and he has seen all kinds of beasts. Fighting a beast is not that much. It is simple and effective, and Amon is alive. It is much harder to kill a beast than killing a beast.

Ammon has this habit, on the one hand because live beasts bring back to the village, where they can kill fresh meat at any time, and on the other, Link likes to experiment with breeding all kinds of wild animals, trying to keep people from risking hunting and food at any time. Ammon doesn't care if any beast can be domesticated or not, just let the people take it back alive.

So when he was hunting, he was followed by a bunch of people, and there were people in the valley on all sides who were shocked to drive the beast to where Ammon was, and there was a bunch of people behind Ammon with ropes and sticks. Amon waved an iron wand down a beast, and the cave wildlings hurried up and tied it up with a rope to carry it away. Every time this happens, the tribe is as lively as the festivities.

Amon usually fights the Iron Armored Beast King. It's not a real fight. It's just a trick to try. Guy's sword looked fierce, but it was far worse than the tail punch of the Iron Armored Beast King's Cloud Dream.

With a single stroke, Ammon walked past Guy, waving his way under the cane and pointing it in the same position on his left shoulder, then accelerating his sudden figure forward like a beast, the cane struck out with the wind, a flame in the sky scattered.

Winnu was a magician, and normally he should have covered up or helped Guy when he did it, but he didn't think his brother, a second-degree samurai, had been defeated by this outsider immediately. He was already late to perform the magic. In a hurry, he just sent a fireball to Amon.

A first-degree theologian can only perform simple low-order theology. Fire elemental theology is powerful and glamorous. It is very prestigious. Many people like to learn first, and Winnu is no exception. This surgical technique is naturally powerful against ordinary people and weird against ordinary samurai, because it is a magical force that others do not possess and has a very good deterrent and harmful effect.

But Amon's judgment was very accurate, and he wasn't afraid at all, and he broke the fireball like a firefly on the way. Winnu shouted, consecutive magic had not reached the time, Amon's iron wand waved over, the tip of the wand swept through his cheek with a sharp wind, feeling like a raw pain was cut by a knife, just so close to smashing his head.

It wasn't the head that was smashed, it was just a click away, and the cane held up by Winnu was smashed into pieces. His staff naturally couldn't get into Amon's eyes, but a solid walnut wood was magically embedded with a common stone. How can a thick walnut wood in the mouth of a cup withstand a wand swept by Amon, even if it's harder? As the staff was broken, the top stone was crushed into powder, and Winnu muttered and spit blood on the floor.

Winnu was injured, but Amon did not injure him. He was suddenly destroyed by the staff while initiating the magic trick. The already functioning power could not be released. Poor control could be reversed on the practitioner himself. His body was as bad as burning. Neither was the stone broken by Amon, who was not so wasted, nor was the staff destroyed while the magic was being performed.

“Yoon Nanna, come here!... both of you, drop your weapons!” Amon stamped his staff, lifted a foot and stepped on the cheek lying on Winnu's side, drinking coldly towards three servants in the distance.

Yoon Nanna's hand-held skirt hem had run to Amon's side, and the three servants behind him had not reacted yet. He saw that two young masters, who usually had no power for a lifetime, had been knocked down. Young master Wennu's head had been stepped under his feet and could have taken his life at any moment. They threw down their axes and sticks in their hands and knelt down together and cried out, “Outsiders, no, noble samurai, forgive our young master! If they die, we die! ”

Amon looked at them with a slightly strange look and asked them, “You guys are so funny, why are you begging me to spare these two youngsters? Do you have any life to do with me? Don't forget that you want to kill me with your own weapons. Why do you ask forgiveness for others? I haven't said I'll forgive you! ”

The servants shouted: "Noble foreign samurai, we were also forced to persuade the two young masters but could not persuade them. We did not want to do this evil trick at all, but had to come. ”

Yoon Nanna whispered next to Amon: "You can't let them go, you can't let any of them go! Amon, you surprise me. You have such a powerful power!... If you hadn't beaten them today, they wouldn't have let us go, you'd be killed, you'd be robbed of your money, and I'd be forcibly taken.... have they ever wanted to spare you? Damn it all! ”

Amon pointed at three servants with his staff: “As a servant, can you persuade your master that I should not bear the consequences? I know what punishment you will bear. So bear with yourself. I do not intend to punish you any more, nor am I worthy of my hand.” Then you point to Guy falling down the grass slope: “You might as well not have the power, otherwise you will only cause more harm and disaster to yourself and others.” And then Winnu at the foot of another finger: “You don't deserve to use the staff! ”

After saying this, he kicked the bloody Winnu down the grass slope and rolled over to Guy's side, turning again to the three servants: “Bring them back, now! ”

“Thank you for your kindness!” Three servants bowed down to salute each other, then rose up and hurried over to carry the two young masters, one of them picked up the rest and fled in the night.

Winnu was suddenly destroyed as he was practicing his magic wand, and his injuries would leave a terrible shadow for a magician throughout his life. Guy was slightly injured, and Amon just broke the cartilage in his shoulder socket, but the wound was extremely difficult to heal, which meant he would no longer be able to wield his sword with physical force.

As for the three servants, Amon was not interested in taking care of them at all, and he knew that when they returned, they would only end up worse than the two young masters. Remember in Duke Town, Moses, the son of Mayor Dusty, had made a mistake out there, coming home to take the blame for not eating for a day and copying the instructions of the gods, but the two servants who looked after Moses were beaten to death. The two youngsters were in such great trouble and so badly injured, just before the eyes of the three servants, that the tragic aftermath of their return was to be known, or that it was time to flee.

When they walked far under the moonlight and gradually lost sight of themselves, Amon turned to hold Yoon Nanna's waist: “Didn't I scare you? Don't be afraid, we'll catch up. ”
