Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 166: duel

Views:

The tall Baghdad was very conspicuous among the group of people. In addition to Baghdad, Zhang Tie also saw Barry, Sista, Wright and Doug. Except for Chauvin, almost all the members of the brotherhood were gathered. .

The crowd of more than thirty people gathered in front of his house was quite noisy. In addition to a few people from the Brotherhood and Shen'en Society, Zhang Tie also saw Captain Colin and Jerome, as well as two other test subjects. The teachers from the Temporary Exercise Supervision Committee were also there. Some of the others were watching the excitement, while others were shouting loudly.

Looking at this formation, Zhang Tie knew that the incident of breaking Zuhair's neck in the cafeteria during the trial finally broke out after several days of fermentation.

Thinking about it, it's almost time. From the time he came back from the trial to now, from receiving the notification of Zuhair's death to finding out his own background, if anyone else in Zuhair's family wants to duel with him, they are almost ready now. .

A bunch of people were noisy around the door of their house. Some people wanted to rush in. The old man stood at the door and worked hard to block a few people who wanted to make trouble. He said that he was not at home, but some people in the crowd didn't believe it. You have to go home and find yourself out.

"Call Zhang Tie out. He killed my brother. Now I come to him for a duel according to the rules of the Norman Empire. Let him not be a coward..." There was a person who jumped the highest and screamed the loudest in front of my brother. .

"Come out, come out, let the murderer Zhang Tie come out. If he doesn't come out, we will go in..." Many people in the crowd started to make noises.

"Zhang Tie is definitely not at home. Please wait a moment and don't get excited..." Barry explained from the side.

Several teachers from the temporary inspection committee in charge of the trial stood aside neutrally, with an impartial attitude. According to the rules of the Norman Empire, they had the greatest role at the moment. They were just witnesses of the fair duel between the Zuhair family and Zhang Tie—this could be considered one of the aftermath of this trial. "Zhang Tie must be hiding. He wants to escape the duel. Everyone rush in and catch this coward..." Someone in the crowd started to make a loud noise again.

"Whoever dares to rush in, I will make him lie here!" The old man shouted angrily and stood guard at the door of the house. Without hesitation, he pulled out the long sword on his waist and pointed it at those who wanted to rush into the house.

Seeing the old man pull out his long sword, the man who jumped the highest in the crowd just now also pulled out the long sword from his waist without hesitation, and there was a chaotic sound of "匌", "匌" and "匌"" in the crowd. Many people drew their long swords. Seeing that the smell of gunpowder was so strong that it looked like it was going to explode, a few spectators ran away quickly.

"Who said I was hiding?" At this most dangerous moment, Zhang Tie's voice rang out, and everyone turned to look at Zhang Tie, who was walking slowly from the sidewalk.

Saw Zhang Tie. Brother's eyes were a little anxious, while the eyes of Brotherhood Barry and others were full of worry. The eyes of those who had just followed the noise looked at Zhang Tie with a sense of schadenfreude.

The crowd separates automatically. Zhang Tie walked over calmly.

"Are you Zhang Tie?" When the man who had just confronted Zhang Tie saw Zhang Tie appear, he turned around and stared at Zhang Tie fiercely.

Zhang Tie saw that the man's face looked somewhat similar to Zuhair's, and he had already guessed who that person was, "Are you Zuhair's brother?"

"Yes, you killed Zuhair in the trial?"

"That's right. He deserved to die, so I killed him!" Zhang Tie admitted generously.

The man walked towards Zhang Tie with a long sword in his hand...

A hand was suddenly placed in front of the man, and Jerome was already blocking the man.

"It is your right to duel with Zhang Tie, and he cannot refuse. But the duel must be held in a public and fair manner after the agreed time. Private vendettas are absolutely prohibited, unless you want to become a murderer and be wanted by the Norman Empire. .”

The man stopped, stared at Zhang Tie, and then firmly inserted the long sword in his hand into the scabbard on his waist.

During this process, Zhang Tie had already smiled and greeted several familiar people around him cordially, including Captain Colin and the teachers from the Provisional Supervision Committee. Zhang Tie looked unconcerned. It even made the few guys around who didn't like him hate him with anger.

"Zhang Tie, during the trial, according to the barbaric trial rules of the Norman Empire, you killed Zuhair in public. Also according to the laws of the Norman Empire, among the blood relatives of Zuhair who were killed by you within three generations, Anyone has the right to ask you for a duel. You cannot refuse. I must remind you that in a duel, just like you kill Zuhair, Zuhair's family will also kill you in a duel. I will not bear any responsibility!" Jerome reminded Zhang Tie with a serious expression.

"Thank you for the reminder, teacher. I accept the duel request from Zuhair's family. The time and place are arbitrary!" Zhang Tie said lightly, the expression on his face did not change at all. When he killed Zuhair, Zhang Tie was already waiting. This is the day.

Zhang Tie's calmness surprised both Jerome and Captain Colin, who had been watching him. Everyone at the scene, including Jerome and Captain Colin, except Zhang Tie's brother, did not know that he just replied After two days at home, a lot of things had happened to Zhang Tie. At this time, Zhang Tie was no longer the same Zhang Tie.

"In the dueling rules of the Norman Empire, it is prohibited to use bows, flying spears, hidden weapons, and crossbows and other projectile weapons. Other pets, mounts, and poisonous items are prohibited from being brought to the dueling venue. Each person can carry up to two Weapons, I want to remind you first, this is also specifically requested by Zuhair's family!" A teacher next to him reminded Zhang Tie again.

"I understand!" Zhang Tie nodded.

"In this case, this is the duel document. Just sign it. According to the laws of the Norman Empire, the duel will be held seven days after the signing of this document. The duel will be held at the school you study at, the Seventh National Citizen of Black Flame City. The middle school is held, and the two of you have a week to prepare various matters. During this period, according to the laws of the Norman Empire, if any of the two of you wants to escape to avoid this duel, this person will be punished by the entire Normans. The empire wants you, and if you are caught, you will be directly demoted to a criminal slave. Your family will also be affected."

A teacher said this and took out a drafted duel document from his pocket and asked Zhang Tie and Haier's brother to sign it.

Zuhair's brother glared at Zhang Tie fiercely, took the pen, and signed his name on it without hesitation in front of everyone.

When Zhang Tie took over the pen, Zhang Tie's brother rushed over, "I will participate in this duel on behalf of my brother!"

"No, this duel can only be participated by Zhang Tie himself, no one can participate in his place!" Captain Colin stretched out his hand. He shook his head and stopped the somewhat excited Zhang Yang.

"Big head..." Bali and the others also shouted from the side.

Zhang Tie just smiled at the people who cared about him, and then signed his name on the duel document without hesitation. While signing, Zhang Tie looked at it. It was discovered that Zuhair's brother was named Sood.

As soon as Zhang Tie finished signing, Sood burst into laughter. He looked at Zhang Tie ferociously. "Boy, there are still seven days left, so pray well. After seven days, I will break your bones piece by piece, and finally cut off your head to avenge Zuhair!"

"Idiot!" Zhang Tie rolled his eyes. I don't even bother to think about it. What level is this guy Sood now? Level 4 or Level 5. Still at level six, the Ma Long in the Black Prison looks much better than this guy. Do I still need to worry about a duel with him

Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Sood and a bunch of guys who came with him left. Anyway, now, they don't have to worry about Zhang Tie running away. If Zhang Tie really doesn't dare to come to the duel, then they will still Even more happily, the life of sin slaves in the Norman Empire and the families who had sin slaves was not so easy.

Sood and the others left, and Captain Colin, who was the witness and arranger of the duel, also left to avoid suspicion due to hunger.

Just when Captain Colin was leaving, Zhang Tie stopped Captain Colin.

"Captain Colin!"

"I'm no longer a captain, just call me Instructor Colin!" One-eyed Dragon smiled helplessly. The establishment of the Black Flame City Guards, which was originally affiliated with the Andaman Alliance, is now in name only. One-eyed Dragon is too embarrassed to let people anymore. Calling him captain, that title he originally liked now sounds a bit harsh.

"Thank you!" Zhang Tie bowed sincerely to Cyclops. If it hadn't been for the Iron-Blooded Fist secret book given to him by Cyclops, Zhang Tie might not have died now, but he would never have had the opportunity he has now.

The one-eyed dragon scratched his head in confusion, "Why are you thanking me?"

"Do you still remember what you said to me that night when I was recovering from my injuries in the Wild Wolf Castle during the trial? For some reasons, I have now become the one percent!"

Zhang Tie believed that the one-eyed dragon could understand what he was talking about.

Sure enough, the one-eyed dragon was stunned for a moment after hearing Zhang Tie's words, thinking about it in his mind, and then suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Zhang Tie as if he had seen a ghost.

Finally, the one-eyed dragon took a deep breath and calmed down his mood, "Maybe that was the most correct decision I have ever made in my life. I look forward to your performance in seven days!"

After saying this and looking at Zhang Tie again, the one-eyed dragon also left, and most of the people watching the excitement dispersed.

In front of Zhang Tie's house, only a few people from the Aircraft Brotherhood were left.

Barry and others heard that Sood was coming to Zhang Tie for a duel, so they followed him eagerly. In the past two days, Zhang Tie's killing of Zuhair had already spread outside, not only in Zhang Tie's school has also spread in other schools. This incident has become the biggest news among the trial students of Black Flame City this year. Several people from the fraternity have been paying attention to the progress of this incident. It was originally the time for everyone to gather It was tomorrow, but I didn't expect Zuhair's brother Soder to attack today. In order to fear that Zhang Tie would suffer when the two parties met, a few people followed him to give Zhang Tie a boost.

Knowing that Zhang Tie must have something to explain to his family at this time, Barry and others did not go to Zhang Tie's house, but left after explaining a few words to Zhang Tie.

When leaving, Zhang Tie pulled Barry over and whispered a few words in Barry's ear. After listening to Zhang Tie's words, when Barry looked at Zhang Tie again, his eyes almost bulged.

Zhang Tie told Barry two things. One was that he was now at level four and had developed iron-blooded dark strength. The other was that his current identity was that he was already a member of the 39th Iron Horn Legion of the Norman Empire. A second lieutenant officer in the division.

Until he was almost a few hundred meters away from the door of Zhang Tie's house, Barry still felt his head was buzzing, and his feet were light as he walked, as if he were stepping on cotton. The people beside him, Sista, Baghdad, and others were worried and worried along the way. While discussing Zhang Tie's duel seven days later, only Wright noticed that Barry seemed a little distracted.

"Barry, what did Big Head say to you just now? Why does it look like something's wrong with your face?" Wright didn't ask this question until he walked to a road with few people.

Wright's question woke Barry up from the shock. Barry shook his head and looked around, only to realize that he had already left Zhang Tie's house for a long time.

"It was inconvenient to talk there just now, so Da Tou told me two things. He wanted me to tell you so that you don't have to worry about his duel!"

"What's going on?" Everyone looked at Barry curiously.

Bali made a gesture, and the five people's heads came together again. Bali repeated the two things Zhang Tie told him, and all the animals were stunned...

Over there, as soon as Zhang Tie returned home, he saw his mother's eyes full of worry and sorrow. Zhang Tie knelt in front of his mother as soon as he entered the house without saying a word.

"Mom, in comparison, your son makes you worry again..."

Just now, when Sood and others were making trouble outside and came to Zhang Tie for a duel, my mother heard many things, including the fact that Zhang Tie killed someone during the trial. Zhang Tie's mother touched Zhang Tie's forehead with her hand. Face, looking at Zhang Tie kneeling in front of him, tears suddenly flowed down.

In Zhang Tie's words, this survival trial was as simple and full of fun as an outing in the wild. But behind the scenes, who knows how many hardships and dangers Zhang Tie experienced. Today's incident only exposed the white lie that Zhang Tie had created in front of his father and mother, and made his family aware of the hardships and dangers that Zhang Tie experienced during the trial.

"Tell mom, did you suffer a lot during this trial, encountered a lot of dangers, and almost couldn't come back! Mom knows your temperament. If you weren't forced to do that, you wouldn't be able to do something like killing someone. What's going on?" Zhang Tie's mother shed tears as she spoke.

Zhang Tie just nodded, tears streaming down his face, "They don't want me to come back alive. I don't want to worry about being plotted all day long, or that one day my mother will shed tears while holding my ashes." , so I killed someone, mother, will you blame me?"

"It's all because I was useless and couldn't protect my brother, so he was bullied outside..." Zhang Yang also shed tears and Zhang Tie knelt down in front of his mother, "Mom, if you want to blame, just blame me. !”

"I don't blame you, Zhang Tie, you killed well, you killed well..." Although Zhang Tie's mother touched the faces of her two sons and shed tears, the words in her mouth were as hard as steel, "You remember, From now on, anyone who wants your brother's life, no matter who he is, even if he is the emperor, will be killed by me. Your father and I have lived to this age, and we are very satisfied to have you two brothers. As long as you two brothers can survive, your father and I will not live in vain. If something happens to you, your father and I don’t want to live anymore, so if anything happens, don’t worry about us. As long as you take good care of yourself, as long as you let yourself live, this is what your father and I are most happy to see. You must remember that your surname is Zhang and you are a Chinese. The Chinese are the head of the human race and the most honorable in the world. The race is the incarnation of the way of heaven. The surname Zhang is a major surname of the Chinese people. It is one of the most noble surnames in the world. No matter in heaven or on earth, the Chinese surname Zhang would rather die in battle than live on his knees. There is no one in the world. Can be bullied..."
