chapter 8 knight's home

After everyone met, Hailey asked anxiously: "Where is that giant bear?"

Anubis replied, "Of course he died. Otherwise, can we come back safely?"

Hailey finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the giant bear had been defeated. Then she saw Jakub covered in blood and asked, "Is he injured?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? Are you trying to be suppressed by a giant bear?"Anubis said angrily.

"Okay, stop looking for trouble."Merric Ince didn't want to watch Fenghun and the others quarrel and play before they had just escaped from the bear's mouth.

Hailey was not in the mood to argue with Fenghun now, so she showed Jakub the wound first. Since she was studying pharmacology, she still had some trauma medicine on her body.

After applying the medicine to Jakub, Hailey leaned towards the knight and asked softly, "Are you injured?"

The knight was not injured, except for some giant bear blood on his body. He replied softly: "I'm fine."

After making sure that no one was injured, the knight decided not to stop and move on, and everyone agreed.

The evening sun shines slantingly on the tree-lined road in Mansoura Forest, which is very artistic. After the battle with the giant bear, and after everyone had traveled a while, they were very tired at this time and were about to leave the Mansoura Forest. The villages on the outskirts of the forest came into view, with smoke slowly drifting into the sky and lights. Gives a feeling of home.

Jakub's stomach growled, and everyone except the knight touched their stomachs. Indeed, everyone was hungry. The lunch prepared by the village chief's wife had been eaten on the way. Merric Ince looked at the knight with a dull expression and asked, "Knight, how far is it? We are all hungry..."

The knight did not look back or answer.

"It's still half a day's journey from Shengyu College. If we walk at night, I think we can reach Shengyu City before midnight."Hailey calculated the distance.

"We're all hungry, and we can't walk anywhere. Although we're about to leave the forest, it's not safe at night. What if something happens again? This time I went to Shengyu to study as if I were seeking lessons. Damn it, I didn't pick a good day to go out. ."Anubis muttered softly.

"You just know how to eat!"Hailey looked down at Anubis angrily, and Anubis also made a face at him, "I do,"Anubis deliberately provoked.

"There is a village not far ahead. We will go there in a moment." The knight interrupted them. This time everyone finally felt confident, as long as they had food and shelter, everyone speeded up their pace unconsciously.

At night everyone finally walked out of the forest.

It was getting dark, the knight lit the torch, and everyone finally found a village not far ahead.

"Is that there?"Merric Ince asked.

The knight nodded.

"Hahaha, come on, the food is here."Anubis galloped away with his horse and whip. Merric Ince looked at it and shook his head helplessly. Hailey still looked down on this sharp man. Jakub speeded up the car and followed in the direction of Anubis, shouting: "boss, wait for me."Hailey was forced to jolt on the carriage, no matter how she ordered Jakub to slow down. , Jakub turned a deaf ear and kept following Anubis's flying figure.

When they entered the village, they found that it was a human village. It's late at night, and every household has already closed its doors and windows.

Everyone didn't know which door to knock on. The knight dismounted and walked in front alone. Everyone could only follow him. He came to a door and knocked on the door. The lights in the room turned on and there was a sound coming from the door. An old woman's voice said, "Who is it?"

"Mother, it's me, Bula." Everyone was stunned. It turns out that this is the home of a knight. Isn't this obviously inconsistent with the identity of the Templars? Why does the mother of the Templars live in such a relatively backward village? .

Just as everyone was confused, the wooden door opened with a creak, and an old woman with gray hair appeared in front of the door. When the old woman's eyes saw the knight, her eyes gradually became a little moist. The knight gently called out: "Mom..." The old woman choked and replied, "Oh," and then hugged the knight, "I'm back." The knight gently wiped the tears from the corners of the old woman's eyes. People kept repeating, "It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back..."

Seeing this scene, Hailey was a little moved, and secretly took out a tissue to wipe her tears.

Only then did the knight realize that there were other people around him. He gently let go of his mother, then looked at the dazed people outside the door and introduced him to his mother, "Mom, these are my friends. They We have to go to Shengyu City tomorrow. They have no place to stay tonight. Do we have any room at home?" When the people outside the door heard the knight's words, they all said to the old woman, "Hello, madam."

The old woman said kindly: "Of course we have room in our house. Come in quickly. Don't stand outside the door. Come on, come in." When the knight saw his mother saying this, he also said to everyone; "Everyone Come in." Everyone said "thank you" to the old woman, and then the knight let everyone into the house first. He pulled all the horses to the stable behind the house and tied them up.

After everyone entered the house, they found that it was a somewhat poor family. The tables, chairs and benches in the house were all made of wood, and there were still some traces of time on them. Everything was very simple, much worse than the village chief's house. Anyway, this place It's also the knight's mother's house, so how could it be so shabby? The old woman wiped all the chairs at home and asked everyone to sit down. When she heard that everyone was hungry, she prepared to cook a dinner for everyone. Hailey helped the old woman and stayed with her. I went to cook with her. The knight returned to the room after finishing the matter with his mount. Seeing everyone sitting in the room, he took off his armor and walked into another room.

Merric Ince and Feng Hun were sitting on chairs nearby, chatting idly. "Brother, is this Flame Knight like this every day? Aren't you tired of being serious all day long?"Anubis asked.

Merric Ince smiled: "I don't know, I'm not familiar with him. We met him three days ago."

"How do you know such a knight? Judging from the pattern on his armor, he should be a Templar. By the way, what does your family do? How do you know such a Templar?"Anubis chewed an apple and said Continue to ask Merric Ince.

"This..."Merric Ince paused. He didn't want everyone to know that he was the son of the leader of the Holy Sky Alliance, because some things were very troublesome to talk about. He didn't want others to look at him differently because he was the son of the head of state. He thought for a moment and said to Anubis: "I met this knight on the road, and he and I happened to be on the road together, so we took a ride together. Walk with me."

"It's that simple, you're lying." Then Anubis looked at Merric Ince with suspicious eyes, which made Merric Ince feel very uncomfortable. Then Anubis took a bite of the apple and said, "I don't want to say it, forget it." He did not embarrass Merric Ince.

At this moment, the howling of a wolf cub suddenly came from the direction of the stable. The sound was clearly calling for his mother. When Anubis heard that it was the sound of a wolf cub, he slapped himself on the forehead. "Oh, why did I forget about Little Wolf? I have to go and have a look." Then he ignored Merric Ince and ran away.

Merric Ince looked at Jakub still holding the fruit plate and eating the fruit desperately. It seemed that Hailey's medicine was very effective and Jakub's injury was almost healed.

After a while, Anubis came back, still holding the little wolf cub in his arms. Then he sat next to Merric Ince, looked at Merric Ince and Jakub, smiled, and said: "This little guy is still It can't live without people, and when it's the only one left, it will keep barking, and I can only carry it back into the house."

After hearing this, Jakub just agreed with a hum, still chewing the fruit in his mouth deliciously, as if he had never seen fruit in his life. Fortunately, he had prepared enough fruit, otherwise he would have been eaten by him long ago. After he finished eating, Merric Ince saw the little wolf cub in Anubis's arms, stretched out his hand and gently touched the wolf cub's head. The wolfcub lay on Anubis's lap very obediently, as if enjoying it very much. Let Merric Ince touch you. Merric Ince said to Anubis: "This little guy is indeed very cute. The dead female wolf is probably this little guy's mother. It has no mother's care at such a young age. What will it do in the future?"

"As for me, I like small animals the most. I have a lot of cats and dogs at home. Raising a wolf is probably not much different from raising a pet. From now on, he will be my battle pet!" Then Anubis stood up from the chair, He raised the wolf cub high above his head with both hands, "Looking at how small it is, I will call it 'Xiaoye' from now on." When Anubis said the name "Xiaoye", he deliberately lifted the little wolf cub up and up again.

"boss, this wolf cub's name is too ordinary, not domineering at all."Jakub had already finished all the edible things on the table, touched his mouth and looked at Anubis and said.

"Foodie, go ahead. I, Anubis, want to name my battle pet. You have no right to speak. Although Xiaoye doesn't sound domineering, what's the point of having a domineering name? My nickname is still Goudan. I'm not Is it still famous among us? In our Rocky City, no matter it’s a village or an urban area, whoever sees my ‘Wind Dog Egg’ will not be in awe!”

"Yes, the boss is right. Our Goudan Gang has a great reputation in Rocky City."Jakub said while looking at Merric Ince with a proud expression. Merric Ince laughed a little in his heart. These two guys are really They all come from the same place and speak in the same way. They say whatever comes to mind. You will definitely not be lonely when you walk with these two people in the future. Then Merric Ince pretended to look at the two people with admiration and nodded.

Anubis hugged the little wolf back into his arms and sat down. His stomach growled again. After all, they had only eaten fruits before, so how could they keep these young men full? Anubis walked to the kitchen with Xiaolang in his arms, and said to Merric Ince as he walked: "Brother, I'm going to the kitchen to see how the food is being cooked, and find some food for Xiaolang by the way."

Merric Ince made an OK gesture. He felt that they would have a long time to live in the future, and it would be better to be friendly to each other. Facts have proved that Merric Ince's feeling was right, and they have been friends for life.

Just when Anubis was about to enter the kitchen, the sound of two people quarreling suddenly came from the next room, one was the Flame Knight. Who is the other one? Is there anyone else in this room?
