When the boy heard Kaqi's words, his face turned pale, he stretched out his hand to stop the little girl, and said in a trembling voice: "You, don't come here, I, I'm very powerful, don't, don't come here!!"
Kaqi smiled, "It's just that you see what you shouldn't see." His burly body approached the two of them, and he stretched out his big palm, pinching the little boy's head and lifting it.
The little boy beat his arm desperately in pain, and his facial features were distorted in pain. The little girl standing behind him was terrified, and hurriedly hugged Kaqi's thigh, begging: "Uncle, please, don't hurt my brother, please!" Please… "
Kaqi kicked her flying, hit the wall behind and fell to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
"Leave them." Du Dian said suddenly.
Kaqi was slightly surprised, and turned to look at him, "Stay? They are people who have seen us. If they leak the news in the future, although they don't know what your plan is, they will definitely cause us trouble."
Du Dian walked over and hugged the boy in his hand aside. After the boy fell to the ground, his eyes were still a little shocked. He glanced at Du Dian, then hurriedly turned and ran to the little girl next to him, "Sister, sister..." The girl lifted up.
Du Dian came to the two of them and said, "Are you brothers and sisters?"
The boy looked up at Du Dian's face, and he couldn't see the slightest joy or anger from this delicate face. He said nervously: "Yes, yes."
"real?"
The boy's heart tightened, and he said in a trembling voice: "I don't know too well, my sister has been with me since I was very young."
Du Dian nodded slightly, "Where are your parents?"
"My father passed away a long time ago, and my mother died of illness two years ago."
Du Dian said: "Everyone else in the village has taken refuge, why are you still here?"
"Come in, you have to pay a fee to enter the city behind the protective wall, I, we have no money, so we can only hide here." The boy said nervously.
Kaqi sneered, and said: "Is it necessary to pay for the entry fee? How much is that? No matter how poor you two are, you can afford these few copper coins. If you really can't afford it, sell some of the things you didn't take with you." Enough money, too, stupid."
Hearing his voice, the boy turned pale with fright, and hurriedly said: "No, it's not enough. The entrance fee used to be only two copper coins, but now I heard that there are savages coming, and the entrance fee here has increased. Ten silver coins are enough! Although the things here are valuable, the owner of the pawn shop has left, and there is no place to sell them, unless you go to another town, but the journey is far away, in case you encounter wild animals or wild men on the road... "
Kaqi raised his brows and said nothing more.
Du Dian looked down at the two, and suddenly said: "If you want, I still need two servants by my side, who can take care of your food and clothing."
The boy was a little surprised, looked up at Du Dian, hesitated for a moment, and said: "I, I'm afraid that our hands and feet will be clumsy, then..."
"It's okay to be stupid, you can learn."
The boy turned his head and glanced at the little girl, gritted his teeth, and said resolutely: "We are willing, and please take us in!" After speaking, he pulled the little girl and knocked her head on the ground.
Du Dian didn't stop him. Seeing that he didn't raise his head, he said: "Get up, I'll suffer this kneeling, but from now on, you don't need to kneel to anyone, including me."
The boy followed the words and pulled the little girl to stand up. Hearing this, he nodded with a vague understanding.
Du Dian said: "What are your names?"
"My name is Gabriel." The boy pointed to the little girl next to him, and said, "My sister's name is Hecate."
Du Dian was slightly stunned, glanced at the boy, and said, "Bandage the wound, let's go."
Seeing Du Dian turn around, Gabriel hurriedly said, "Big, my lord."
"Um?"
"Yes, can you wait for us, we have to pack our luggage." Gabriel said nervously.
Kaqi sneered, and said, "Ignorant brat, what can you do with your rags, from now on, the leftovers from your meals will be more expensive than the best things you've ever seen, understand? "
Gabriel glanced at him in fear, but still summoned up his courage and said to Du Dian's back: "My lord, I, the token left by my parents is still at home, I want to get it, please..."
"Go." Du Dian promised.
Gabriel was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled the little girl Hecate to follow.
The three of Du Dian followed the two of Gabriel to a laundry creek behind the township. There are several stone slabs on both sides of the creek, and the water is clear. Occasionally, one or two small fish can be seen swimming down the stream.
On the hillside behind the creek, a dilapidated wooden hut stood alone on the hillside. Seeing that his sister was injured, Gabriel asked her to wait at the foot of the hill. He climbed up to the shanty on the hill and got in. Coming out from inside, holding a small bundle in his hand, he ran down the hillside quickly.
"My lord, I've packed it up." Gabriel took Hecate to Du Dian and said respectfully.
Du Dian glanced at the baggage in his arms, nodded slightly, and turned away.
After finding a few sets of clothes in the small town, Du Dian asked Kaqi and Guinness to carry one person on their backs, and hurried to the left door of the nearby guardian wall. Du Dian smeared a little on his face with charcoal, pressed down on the bridge of the nose, and gently pushed it down. With a click, the bridge of the nose collapsed, and the appearance of the whole person suddenly changed greatly, looking mediocre and inconspicuous.
Kaqi and Guinness also used this method to adjust their appearance. Gabriel and Hecate were stunned by such a skill, and their small faces were full of surprise.
"Stop!" The guard stopped Du Dian and others.
Du Dian was prepared and took out the badge of the Ryan family.
When the guard saw the pattern of the medal and recognized it as the family crest of a nobleman, his expression changed immediately, and he nodded and smiled apologetically, "So it's my lord, please, please." He immediately stepped aside.
Du Dian took the lead into the city, found a small hotel and rented it, and asked Kaqi and Guinness to bandage the wounds of Gabriel and Little Hecate. At the same time, he ordered: "You stay here first, don't expose your traces."
"What about you?" Katie asked.
"I'm going to the temple." Du Dian pushed open the window of the hotel, and saw the dark clouds as thick as ink, covering the sky above his head. The hazy weather makes people feel depressed. It is estimated that many people are being oppressed by such weather I can hardly breathe.
"Go to the temple?" Kaqi frowned.
Guinness, who had been taciturn all this time, said, "Should we sneak back and inform the Ryan family? Although they are down, at least they can help us find out something."
Du Dian shook his head slightly, "If the enemy wants to deal with us, they will definitely keep an eye on them. At this time, they will only reveal their whereabouts in the past."
Kaqi glanced at Du Dian, "Do you want someone to deal with that Mellon consortium?"
"I am alone, enough."
