The heads of people outside Cold Wind City were surging, and thousands of eyes were staring at the enclosed open space. A pool of blood was slowly spreading out, and the awe-inspiring Harding Knight had lost his breath. The murderer who killed him also had blood to cool down, and was stunned by the wind.
The scene was solemn, only the sound of breathing. The onlookers stood on tiptoes and watched but did not dare to come out. A few untouchables really killed the noble lords, and they accomplished things that most people would not even dare to think about. This is incredible.
"This is blasphemy!" Lehman, as the nobleman of Coldwind City, couldn't tolerate it. He felt the icy cold and kept yelling. The other knights around him also showed anger. How can the noble uppermost die by the hands of the untouchables
"These five untouchables must be executed." Lehman's sallow face became flushed, unable to restrain his anger. He rode a horse to Zhou Qingfeng, "Your Excellency Hugo, as a nobleman, how can you accept such a terrible thing
Harding has admitted defeat and is willing to pay the ransom. But your soldiers killed him cruelly, which is a great blasphemy and violation of the rule of law. "
Alpha, who was seriously injured, was carried off by several guards, and the soldier who took the initiative to stand up has fallen into dying. He was so badly injured that he couldn't save him. The other four guards who went into battle seemed to realize what they had done at this moment, and they all knelt down.
Regardless of guards or guards, there was silence. This is a posture that is left to deal with. After all, it is a big crime for untouchables to kill nobles, and they will never be forgiven. This is a tradition of decades, hundreds of thousands of years, and it is the law.
Under everyone's attention, Zhou Qingfeng got off his horse. Kelly knew what he was going to do at a glance, and shook her head and sighed. Xili quickly took out a small box from the back of Jiying, and took out a bottle of Healing Potion.
"Your Excellency, what are you doing..., don't you safeguard the glory and dignity of the nobles?" Lehman still wanted to stop Zhou Qingfeng. He was just stared at by Xili, and he didn't dare to step forward.
Zhou Qingfeng squatted down and opened the cap of the blue'healing potion' bottle. Alpha fell on the ground and opened his eyes like a flashback, shaking his lips but only blood came out. The latter was lifted up, spit out a mouthful of blood, and became even more wilted.
Alpha's mouth was pinched open, and the potion was poured in.
Lehman still exclaimed, "Such a precious thing on a pariah?"
The power of magic was at work, Alpha's weak breathing gradually stabilized, and his collapsed chest quickly recovered. In the invisible chest and abdomen, the bleeding organs function normally again.
Wow... The sound of surprise replaced all kinds of doubts and shocks, and the many reversals of the situation made more people inexplicably excited. Zhou Qingfeng ordered several armed civilians to carry the wounded into the carriage, and sneered at Lehman instead...
"You just started a duel with me? I don't care about the ransom, anyway, none of you have any money. So far, anyone who provokes me must die. This is my rule, and it must not be broken. ."
After putting it down, Zhou Qingfeng led the team into the city. Marbury looked at Harding, who had fallen on the ground and was getting colder, wondering whether he should be sad or excited. He rode behind Uncle Zhou and whispered: "Your Excellency Lehman is going to die of anger."
"What about dying of anger? Even if you have the ability to retaliate," Zhou Qingfeng said casually, "Maybe your father is still willing to use my hand to get rid of the hidden dangers of your family."
"What?" Marbury was speechless in surprise.
After entering the city, it is natural to visit the city lord. Regardless of whether His Excellency Lehman was so annoyed that he would explode, or if he waited for his revenge, he led the team directly to the city lord's mansion of the Longlegs home.
The long-legged mansion is not very big, but the interior decoration is quite luxurious. Kaili and others accompanied Zhou Qingfeng in, and they were amazed when they saw all kinds of exquisite devices and supplies. Just a few landscape decoration paintings in the living room made them linger.
The place where the two sides met was in the garden of the mansion, but the flowers in the garden were withered and the fountain stopped, and there was no money to continue to maintain the magical enchantment that isolates the inside and outside, and only kept a greenhouse.
Marbury led the way until he brought Zhou Qingfeng to his father. The slender-faced Columfell. Long legs leaned on the lounge chair in the conservatory, covered with a wool blanket. He raised his finger to the small table in front of him...
"Sit down, the magical Victor Hugo. My injury is not healed, so I can't stand up to greet you. Your behavior today is beyond my expectation, and the expression on the servants is indescribable. But you can come. , I am very happy."
There are rumors that the old leg is dying, but he looks good when he meets it in person. Zhou Qingfeng sat down and looked at each other with interest. The servant brought a cup of hot tea and a few plates of pastries, and then all stepped back, leaving only Marbury to serve him personally.
"Longlegs, you are not as miserable as described by the outside world. I originally thought you were going to die soon." Zhou Qingfeng took a sip of the tea, feeling that it tasted good. The nobles in the North are indeed extravagant, and the sugar in the tea is so sweet.
Old Long Legs smiled bitterly, "I call you Victor, don't mind. Now the situation in the Northland is very chaotic, you must have a lot of doubts. We can talk about it, and if you have any doubts, just ask. I Never conceal it."
"Any question?" Zhou Qingfeng's eyes condensed, "What is the Iron Curtain?"
The old long legs were holding up the tea with a smile, and his hands froze. Marbury was a little confused on the side, and the father and son didn't expect Zhou Qingfeng to be really bizarre.
"It's a young man, vigorous." Old Long Leg sighed, "I thought you were more concerned about the situation in Coldwind City or the situation in the North. But you asked the'Iron Curtain'. Well, I said it. Whatever we talk about, we also have time."
Marbury interjected and asked, "Dear Hugo, why would you want to know what the Iron Curtain is?"
"Does anyone care about this question?" Zhou Qingfeng asked rhetorically.
The long-legged father and son suddenly felt sad. They didn't care, but they were used to it.
Zhou Qingfeng continued: "I want to leave Beidi and leave this ghost place."
Marbury was surprised, "Your Excellency Hugo, don't you want to occupy a city in the North?"
Hahaha..., Zhou Qingfeng laughed. Immediately after the old long legs also laughed, and finally Marbury laughed at himself. The latter two laughed and laughed and burst into tears, the old long legs seemed to be touched, and bitterly beat the table and cursed....
"Leaving, we also want to leave this ghost place, but we can't go anywhere! My grandfather is'Long Legs' Livin, a hero who fought against demons, but as his grandson, I became a jailer and prisoner.
My grandfather's feats saved mankind, but the rewards were betrayal, deceit, and mockery. Those bastards in the south play us like fools. They keep us tightly sealed, fearing us and hating us at the same time. "
The old long leg slammed down, and the wooden table next to the recliner smashed into fragments. The guards and Kaili and others on the alert rushed in when they heard the sound, and then retreated again when they discovered that it was just a misunderstanding.
Zhou Qingfeng glanced at the shattered wood on the ground. Fortunately, he was quick to save his cup of tea. He has nowhere to put the teacup now, so he can only take a sip and put it on the ground.
"This sounds like a long story. But you are right. We have time to talk slowly. I would like to know what has happened in the North during the past fifty years? What is the attitude of the South towards us now?"
Old Long Legs sighed, and said sadly: "What I'm going to talk about next is a secret that is passed on by word of mouth and not recorded. This was originally a secret kept by the seventeen cities in the North, but now this secret is long gone. It became a joke."
Zhou Qingfeng immediately sat up, serious and serious.
"It is rumored that more than a thousand years ago, a group of elves from Yongju Island established Silver Leaf City in the north. This group of elves were expelled from Yongju Island, and their leader was an elven prophet who was condemned to be a heresy."
The voice of the old long legs floated melodiously in the greenhouse. When the words'heresy' and'elf prophet' appeared, Zhou Qingfeng felt that the'gate of truth' he wore on his chest appeared a little strange. He frowned suspiciously...
Old Long Legs cursed bitterly: "Victor, what is the Iron Curtain? Let me tell you. The Iron Curtain is a plane, a semi-plane that invades the main material world. It is stuck in the sky above the North Land. , Is a closed space tens of thousands of meters above the ground.
The "Iron Curtain" did not appear 50 years ago, in fact it appeared a thousand years ago. It has always been small, and everyone doesn't care much, just as there are more stars in the sky.
But fifty years ago, the Iron Curtain suddenly expanded and enveloped the Northland. It is rumored that the devil built the iron curtain. But it was actually the elven prophet of Silver Leaf City who did it.
We don't know much about the "Elven Prophet", and his true identity has always been a mystery. We only know that it once used a name-Marcos. "
