Chapter 1011: The Down-and-Out Swordsman
The next morning, Jia Zhengjin slept soundly.
There seemed to be a commotion outside.
"Keane!" Tina gently shook her husband to wake up.
"What?" was woken up in a sweet dream, and Jia Zhengjin felt quite depressed.
"Listen, what's going on outside?" said Tina, in a whisper.
Yawning lazily, Jia Zhengjin pricked up his ears and listened carefully, and there seemed to be someone arguing outside. It's a long way from here, though, so it's not loud.
"Your ears are pointy enough," he said to Tina, smiling, as he reached out to gently comb her hair, "It's just a fight, it's normal." In the camp of tens of millions of people, it is strange that there is no such situation. Leave him alone, sleep a little longer!
But Tina nudged him away, "Why don't you go and have a look?" I just heard your name called!"
"Really?" Jia Zhengjin was actually reluctant to get up. I was tired before, and I really wanted to rest for a while, "Could it be that you heard it wrong?"
"Really!" said Tina, softly, "why don't you go and see it first, what if there's anything important?"
Seeing his wife say this, Jia Zhengjin had no choice but to give up the idea of sleeping lazy: "Okay!"
He sat up very reluctantly, suddenly lifted the quilt mischievously, and then laughed and threw himself on his wife and reached out to tickle it.
This sudden "attack" caught Tina off guard, desperately hiding where his opponent was, only to be made so coquettish that she was about to die laughing.
Finally, under begging for mercy, Jia Zhengjin finally let go. She stretched out her hand and slapped it gently, and said half-disgusted, half-coquettishly, "What are you doing?
"Okay, okay!" Jia Zhengjin hurriedly dressed and got up, "Then you can continue to sleep by yourself for a while." ”
"Hmm!"
Dressed neatly and leaving the private tent, Jia Zhengjin looked at the noisy position in the distance suspiciously, under the salute of the soldiers stationed outside: "What's going on?
"Report to Lord Keane!" a female general immediately approached, "It seems that someone wanted to see you, but was stopped by the checkpoint guards." ”
"Someone wants to see me, then let him come!" Jia Zhengjin frowned, "What are you stopping for?"
"Because you and Lady Tina are still resting, the checkpoint guards don't dare to disturb at will!" said the female general, "plus the identity of the person who asked to meet is a bit ......."
"Which is the identity?" Jia Zhengjin didn't like to say halfway through.
"It's just that his status is too lowly to be worthy of seeing an adult in person!" replied the female general cautiously.
"What do you mean?" Jia Zhengjin's face showed displeasure, "When is it now, it is our companion to be able to stand here and fight against the Sea Clan!
"But if you don't set a rule and let anyone who wants to see you come over, then you won't be able to rest quietly!" said the female general.
"That's a good thing to say...... Jia Zhengjin understands why they did it, "but it also depends on what it is." If they just want to see me, say hello to me, or beg me to do something, then such people will stop me. But what if something important? By the way, did you ask why?"
"Lord Keane, it's the checkpoint guards who stop you, and we don't know the truth!" replied the female general in a low voice.
"Okay!" Jia Zhengjin thought to himself, no one was released, where would they know if they were guarding near the tent. Thinking of this, he immediately said to her, "I'll go and see for myself, you continue to guard the neighborhood, don't let people disturb Tina's rest." ”
"Obey!!" The female general breathed a sigh of relief, talking to Jia Zhengjin just now made her feel endless pressure. After all, this person in front of him has stepped into the realm of gods, and he is likely to become a legendary figure of gods in the future!
Jia Zhengjin didn't know that he was putting so much pressure on the other party, so he walked forward and soon came to the vicinity of the checkpoint.
Sure enough, the guards at the checkpoint were blocking the intersection in full gear, confronting a young swordsman who looked a little scruffy, wearing tattered leather armor and a rusty iron sword hanging from his waist.
The young swordsman, of course, didn't want to get into a conflict with the soldiers, so he kept trying to convince them to let them go.
It's just that the guard soldiers at the checkpoint have a cold face, and order the other party to leave quickly in a stern tone.
The young swordsman did not want to give up, and quarreled with the soldiers as he spoke, but only between words. After all, now everyone understands that the enemy of the coalition is the Sea Clan, and it is quite a crime to cause infighting.
The quarrel has attracted countless eyes, and a large number of people around it have been used by the awakened coalition forces, and the mercenaries, adventurers, and rebels who have come to help are all around.
Presumably seeing that the scene is getting bigger and bigger, the checkpoint guards want to end the dispute as soon as possible to avoid causing a bad impact and making the higher-ups blame. So began to work to disperse the crowd, while preparing to drive the young swordsman away stronger.
Seeing this, Jia Zhengjin immediately stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Master Keane!!" the down-and-out young swordsman let out a cry of joy as soon as he appeared. At the same time, the onlookers who were driven away by the soldiers also immediately stopped and looked this way excitedly.
"Lord Keane!" the soldier guarding the checkpoint said hurriedly when he saw him come out, "I'm sorry to disturb your rest, we'll disperse these people immediately!
"Wait!" Seeing that the soldiers at the checkpoint were preparing to act, Jia Zhengjin hurriedly stopped him, "Listen to what he wants to say first, don't drive people out of nowhere!"
"Worthy of Lord Keane!"
"Keane-sama's gas is so big!"
"yes, or could it be Lord Keane?"
......
The onlookers immediately became excited, and there was a lot of discussion among themselves.
Now that basically everything is flattered, Jia Zhengjin understands what the situation of privileged people is. He automatically blocked out the sounds and looked carefully at the down-and-out swordsman in front of him.
"Lord Keane," the captain of the checkpoint guard came over and whispered, "this man is a broken mercenary of our Charman Empire, and he was born a slave! Later, he became a mercenary, and it was difficult for him to support himself. With his lowly status, you don't need to bother with ......"
"I was indeed born as a slave, can I decide for myself?" the down-and-out swordsman suddenly said angrily, "I got rid of this identity by my own efforts, why do you still look down on me? Also, yesterday, the Magic Guild announced to the whole army that it was looking for someone who could solve Lord Keane's puzzle, and there was no rule that people from slaves could not participate! I know the answer to this question, why can't I see Lord Keane?"
"Oh, do you know the answer to this question?" Jia Zhengjin looked at him curiously, but he didn't have much hope in his heart. But at least listen to it.
