Chapter Five: The Knight's Silver Sword
The trader's eyes widened and he couldn't believe that Paukem would kill him.
The lifeless body fell to the snow.
Paukem knelt down and took out the five Kesi rolls, and then spat in the trader's face.
"Hmph, a stinky cockroach that died at the hands of a mouse."
If the body is left here, it will be buried under heavy snow or discovered by the old housekeeper.
But he doesn't care about all this anymore. With money, he wants to leave this place and go out to have some fun.
He dug out the hidden black mask from an old wooden box, took off his old clothes stained with cockroach blood, and threw them into the snow.
Snow is the best hiding tool.
Can easily erase a person's traces.
Along the way, Paukem detoured for an unknown amount of time before he came to the store where Miss Verna was written.
Knocked on the window.
The window is open.
Verna saw a man wearing a black mask leaning against the wall.
The warm breath inside came out through the small window, and Paukem took a greedy breath.
Verna said with some disgust: "Sir, we have already proofed it."
Paokemu ignored the closing words and said to himself: "I want to buy Fengxue's gift."
He said reaching out and knocking on the window.
Ta~dongta~,ta~.
Dongta~ta~dong, dong dong.
Verna's face changed slightly, her tone was no longer impatient, but she asked with some confusion: "Mr. Feng Xue's gift of 20 bottles has been sold out."
Paukem thought for a while and said: "Will it be available at 10 o'clock tomorrow?"
"Sir, unfortunately, no."
Seeing that Paukem didn't speak for a long time, Verna also said: "Sir, why don't you go to another house and have a look?"
"Miss Verna, I've made things difficult for you, so when will the goods arrive?"
"Seeing that you are in such a hurry, I can't determine the time. After all, the wind and snow are very heavy."
"Yes, the wind and snow became so strong in less than 10 minutes."
At this time, Verna pushed out a cup and said, "Warm yourself up, it's cold outside."
Baokemu touched the cup, drank a sip of hot tea, and then pushed it back.
"Thank you, this tea is very warm."
"As long as you are satisfied, sir, there are no good things in the store. I hope this scarf can make your journey more warm."
Paukem took the red scarf, wrapped it around his neck and left.
Passing a corner, the howling cold wind blew over with snowflakes.
The weather is really cold for ghosts, just when Paukem thought about it.
A knight's horse walked slowly behind him.
The knight's horse stepped on the soft snow, leaving long hoof prints behind it.
"Civilian! Do you know which road the Earl of Marrobik's Palace takes?"
"Lord Knight, I don't know."
Because the knight was wearing a helmet and a mask and was sitting on a horse, Paukem didn't see the knight's eyes at all.
But the grand duke knight squinted and saw the black and gold rose mark on the shoulder, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
He drew the silver sword from his horse and stabbed Paukem directly in without giving Paukem a chance to react.
Paukem stared blankly as a beautiful silver sword pierced his body. The unstoppable blood dripping from his mouth dripped onto the scarf, making the scarf look even brighter.
"Mouse! You deserve to be damned for disrespecting the great Grand Duke Knight."
After drawing out his sword, the Grand Duke Knight looked around.
Huhu——
The cold wind knocked on the windows of civilians, as if an evil spirit was seeking their lives.
Then he turned over and dismounted.
After taking away the Kexi roll, I got on my horse and drove away. The snow was heavy and soon covered the horse's hoof prints.
Paukem, who fell to the ground, felt his body temperature draining rapidly, and endless fear surged in his heart.
He raised his hand weakly and looked at a bright light.
"Save me, save me."
No one in the room dared to open the window.
They only dared to secretly watch Paukem's struggle before his death. They were afraid that the great Grand Duke Knight would find out that they saved this sinner and would be angry with them.
Until Baokemu died completely, his resentful eyes stared straight at this family.
A long time passed.
Squeak——
The doors opened one by one.
Paukem's resentful eyes did not scare them, they were more afraid of losing their lives and having no money.
Soon, Paukem was divided up, leaving only one piece of clothing to preserve the last dignity.
Huhu——
It's very windy and snowy.
In the black market, weak candlelight burned.
At this time, a gust of wind blew in, and the candlelight swayed unsteadily, threatening to be extinguished at any time.
Crunch——
The old butler ignored this and quietly tasted the red wine.
"Qiusi, you should also sit down and have a taste."
After sitting down, Delta-Cius picked up a glass filled with red wine, which looked extremely beautiful under the candlelight.
"Father, the trader is dead. He was killed by Paukem, who died under the silver sword of the Grand Duke Knight. The plan was successfully completed."
"Qiusi, are you used to being a hunter?"
Delta-Qius drank a glass of red wine, licked his lips and said with a grin: "Father, I find it very interesting. It feels great to be able to control the lives of ants at will."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and shook it.
He also felt the power of the noble men, just like fine wine, one could not help but be intoxicated.
"Okay, Qius, I had a mission when I brought you out of the Grand Duke's Castle of Troxi. We are not nobles yet."
"I know that my father and younger brother are the stewards at the Grand Duke's Castle in Troxi. He is light, and of course we are dark."
The Delta family has been the stewards of the Grand Duke's Castle in Troxi for generations. At best, they are stewards, and at worst, they are dogs.
But in the eyes of outsiders, this is the honor of the Delta family, a supreme honor bestowed by the Grand Duke.
Delta-Kius's eyes burned with blazing fire.
They just want to take advantage of Grand Duke Troxi's pride and confidence, secretly develop their power step by step, and try to cause as much trouble as possible to Grand Duke Troxi.
"Qius, find the location where Anderson went before he died and send out the message. Then they can go find some wine and attract the knight back. After all, chaos is more interesting."
"I know father."
Crunch——
The candle went out.
in the dark.
Delta-Kevin stared at the shaking red wine with bright eyes.
"What is hidden in the former Grand Duke's Castle of Troxi? It's really exciting."
The Grand Duke of Troxi left this place 300 years ago. After leaving, he directly followed the king in the war, establishing his position as Grand Duke for 200 years.
No matter how the king changes, the grand duke has always been a member of the Troxi family, and even the currency is named after Kexi.
This had to make Delta Kevin curious. The knight came here not to maintain the majesty of the Grand Duke's Palace, but to hide some secrets.
Otherwise, one of the Seven Knights would not have been sent to this small place.
The picture is getting darker and darker.
Click——
The broken finger was split.
