Chapter 22: Escape

Silence, this damn scream, the evil laugh and the wail, I closed my eyes and wiped the blood from my face, it was a miracle to say, I had killed, more than one, these robbers were so intoxicated with the so-called sweet dreams that they did not wake up from their sweet dreams until the bloody iron sword that slashed at them mercilessly took their lives, and I returned the peace to the night, but at the cost of the lives of a few people. I slowly picked up a rag from the table and carefully wiped the blood from my sword, feeling like an overturned kitchen counter, and I didn't know what to say to comfort myself.

The whole room was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the ground was already stained red with the blood flowing from the corpse, and it was slimy to step on. But I didn't care, I picked up a bronze mirror from the ground, and through the light of the oil lamp I saw myself in the mirror, no longer the same person but a bloodthirsty beast through and through. I quickly put away the mirror and forced myself to stop looking at that horrible appearance.

Tenea, she had stopped crying, hid in an unstained spot on the ground, tugged at the robe that Prasvia had just put on her, and sat there, staring at the blood, shivering, completely devoid of the quirkiness she had used to play tricks on us during the day. Her mother, Prasvia, was hugging her tightly, and the mother and daughter had calmed down, but the smell of blood made the old woman feel slightly uncomfortable.

"Luga, what can I say, I apologize to you for my previous faux pas." Dr. Bella said, holding my left hand with both hands and gently picking it up, not caring about the blood stain on it, and kissing it heavily, "My wife and Tenaia and I must thank you for coming." ”

I didn't say anything, just turned my head to look at Tenaia, and to my surprise, Tenaia was also looking at me at this time, and her red and swollen eyes, clear and pure blue eyes like the sky, felt like an electric current hitting my body without a trace, provoking me to be clever. This little goblin is about to hook the soul of me, a person who has no European and American control. The original inexplicable bloodthirsty impulse has almost dissipated at this time, I think I can understand the reason why the overlord Xiang Yu insisted on taking Yu Ji on an expedition, but it is still too humble to compare me with Xiang Yu.

"I don't know about the oath I'm going to keep."

I whispered, but I was afraid that Dr. Bella would regret a decision that was not made by me.

"Oh, you see, I forgot about it." Dr. Bella smiled and patted her head, "That's right, it's my daughter Tenaia," and as she spoke, Doctor Bella pointed to Tenaia and said to me, "It's not surprising that I've known this thing for a long time, maybe Doctor Bella didn't understand what I meant, or thought I had forgotten about it." "Now, Luga." Dr. Bella took my hand again and walked up to Tenea, and Dr. Bella's wife, who didn't bother to clean up her messy hair, hurriedly lifted Tenaia up and stood in front of me. The girl in the West is not ordinary, she is not much as shy as the girl in the East, but looks at me with her head held high, without any fear, and her eyes are shining, staring at me shy.

"There are beautiful women in the north, peerless and independent. One look at the city, and then look at the country. ”

Secretly muttered, thinking that such a beautiful girl, should not waste her youth and beauty on people like me, here I thought of Xiaoya again, although it is not as amazing as Tenaia, but after getting along for a long time, it is gradually becoming more and more beautiful, although it cannot be said that she has both talent and appearance, but she can also be called knowledgeable, in my eyes she is a beauty, but the distance between us is getting farther and farther away under the tearing of reality. Now the Tenaia in front of her is completely a copy of Xiaoya, Xiaoyanai looks at her amazingly, Xiaoya is introverted and outgoing, and she has a bad stomach. The more I thought about it, the more I began to feel a little fluttery, and the discomfort of killing someone was now forgotten.

"Lujia, I'm really sorry, before my daughter got married, I let those thieves see my body, I hope you don't dislike it."

"How so?" I smiled and said, "They see, isn't this life just like this, since I once swore to marry Tenaia, naturally I can't run away." ”

I quickly came to my senses from the fluttering state that I was not supposed to do before I could figure out the origin of the corpses in this room.

"What are they here for?"

I asked Dr. Bella, and the smile on Dr. Bella's face gradually retracted, and he let out a long sigh and said, "I won't hide this from you anymore, what they want is the flag in your hand." ”

"I see." Now it seems that the origin of this group of robbers is inseparable from the Roman officer who stopped us in the morning, so not only am Andrew and I in some danger, but even Dr. Bella's family, who took us in, will risk their lives at any time.

"I don't understand, it's just a gilded military flag." Puzzled, Dr. Bella asked me, "Is there anything wonderful about this thing?" ”

"There's nothing fantastic about it." I explained: "This flag belongs to the 7th Gemina Legion, according to Andrew, and that's all I know. ”

"Well," Dr. Bella said thoughtfully, "it's enough that you know, and I think Andrew's kid knows so much, and I can't tell you so much, but I want to remind you that you can't stay here whether the flag is in your hands or not." ”

"You mean, leaving Narpon?"

"Yes!"

Dr. Bella looked at Plavia and Tenaia, nodded, and asked me, "Do you have any plans with Andrew?" ”

"Plans? Of course, I was looking for a chance to join the army! ”

I replied without thinking.

"Then we'll have to go our separate ways." Dr. Bella looked at me with a heavy face and said, "I have a distant relative in Genoa, and I can take my wife to the place, but Tenaia ......"

"Let her follow you!" I knew that Dr. Bella wanted Tenaia to follow me, but I rightly refused, "Andrew and I are about to join the army, and it will be dangerous for Tenaia to follow us." Let her follow you, you give me your exact address, and I'll definitely go to you if I still have the chance!" ”

"That's fine." Dr. Bella took a piece of parchment from the table, found a reed pen, and was about to write, but he hesitated when he stood on the ink against the paper.

"Why, I'm afraid it's not safe for us to take it, right?"

"yes, but I thought of a better way." Dr. Bella put down his pen and said, "If you can go to Genoa, just ask the slave doctor, don't ask why." ”

"Slave doctor." I repeated it and showed him that I had memorized it.
