Chapter 453 The Three Stones
"Sister Knight, I'll give this to you."
Durcinia took the red gem the size of a little finger nail, smiled and touched the little girl's head. The little snowflake also lowered her head and rubbed the dirty smiling face.
The little girl giggled while holding the unicorn's white neck, and looked proudly at her playmates sniffing.
Durcinia waved to the children of the dwarfs, and the ragged boys and girls looked at each other, cheered, surrounded the Knight sister and her beautiful horse, and looked at the troublemaker who held the horse's neck with envy, and reached out carefully.
The little snowflakes knelt on the ground with their legs bent and their legs were bent. The gravel on the ground could not hurt it at all. The flying dust seemed to have eyes, avoiding its body and the children around it.
Durcinia gently touched Xiao Xuehua's head, her eyes moved away from these carefree children and fell on the busy dwarves.
The guards equipped with robotic arms carried the huge rocks, and the pressure valve was filled with white smoke, drifting towards the broken zenith with their shouts;
The dwarf girls in the cloak alley and weaving farm collected a lot of fabrics from the ruins, sorting them by category, tearing the softest ones for bandaging the wounded;
The cobbler was cutting leather as the girls asked, preparing for the upcoming long journey;
The remaining dwarves either hugged their waists to find useful debris, sneaked up on some food they found, or burped into the gap between the boulders and shouted their relatives' names.
Several days have passed since the initial panic, confusion, cowardice and despair to the current vitality.
A big hole was broken into the sky, and the original artificial light source had also been extinguished. Five real sunrises were coming from the dark underground, and the sixth time would soon be.
"Dear Knight Durcinia," No. 37's voice rang in her ears, and she turned her head, "Everyone really can't find more useful things. Should we be ready to leave?"
Dursineya nodded: "Well, what do Mayor Vern say?"
"He said he would wait for the wounded to recover for a few more days, otherwise it would be very troublesome to go on the road."
No. 37 looked at Fern, who was commanding the guards to clear the boulders in the distance, and his eyes were filled with gratitude and respect.
It was this person who stood up resolutely when everyone had just climbed out of the mine and faced the scene of grief and despair like a scene like the end of the day, sought them with his calm voice, and provided them with hope for a new life.
Dursineya's eyes floated involuntarily, but it was hard to say too much, just continued to nod:
"Then let's listen to him. After all, he has leadership experience. I am just an ordinary person and don't understand many things very well."
No. 37 shook his head in disagreement:
"If it weren't for the timely warning from Lord Knight, so many people wouldn't have survived now."
"I was just a melodraft. I found that the elf lady was abnormal. At that time, I was calm and thought of taking refuge in the mine. It was you." Durcinia smiled.
No. 37 lowered his head shyly, his cheeks were a little red:
"I also accidentally hit me. I'm just a miner and I'm just a little familiar with the mine."
"Then, then I'll go and do it first. Oh, it's still early, so please have a good rest!"
Looking at No. 37, who was fleeing in a hurry, Dursineya looked at the white sky above her head and couldn't help but laugh.
"Sister Knight, Sister Knight, look at it, I also found a beautiful stone!"
A small piece of thin pieces of gem lie in the tender little hand, like a drop of morning dew in the palm of your palm.
"It's so amazing, come and give you a reward." Durcinia exchanged a piece of candy for gem fragments and solemnly put it into a small cloth bag.
The little boy who presented the treasure ran away happily, and soon got into the mine again, intending to find some more beautiful stones for the Knight Sister.
Although the mining area of Cherbourg has dried up, a little ore residue can be found, so Durcinia organized it into a treasure hunt for children, so that they would not cause trouble for the busy adults, and the cleaned mines are safer.
Durcinia comforted the little snowflakes who were used as slide by the children. She stretched her waist and turned around and found Qi Youfeng sitting alone on a huge rock.
Qi Youfeng was like a rejection magnetic field. Whether it was the innocent and lively children, the honest and diligent adults, or the guards and the respectable Mayor Fern, they all consciously marked his position as a forbidden area and refused to enter within five meters of his body.
When they organized refugees in the suburbs of Cherbourg, they naturally encountered many difficulties, especially when the troubled miners, the quelling guards and the self-defense civilians were in chaos.
After trying various methods such as tripartite mediation, raising arms and exhale, Qi Youfeng impatiently took the most effective measures:
kill.
After chopping off more than a dozen heads like chopping melons and vegetables, someone finally listened to them.
After that, those doubts, complaining, and resentful voices were cut off by this man. On the 37th, he stood up and persuaded his fellow miners to help and help everyone take refuge in the old mine. Finally, he saved some innocent dwarves.
Later, Fern suddenly appeared, and some harsh protests were scared away by this guy, which made Durcinia wonder if this man was used to beheading his head.
It is precisely because of this man's cruel action that he is now in this situation of fearing him like an evil ghost.
However, Durcinia estimated that this guy should be happy to be quiet so that he could concentrate on waiting for his beauty to come back.
He talks about the things he entrusted to be loyal to others every year.
After seeing Qi Youfeng and others safe, she quickly left alone. She had been leaving for five or six days and didn't know where to go.
Durcinia didn't know where she went every year, but Qi Youfeng knew.
He would not hide it from him every year, for fear that he would worry or be anxious to wait, so he left a question for his entertainment.
Qi Youfeng looked at the three stones placed in front of him, fiddled with his fingers, and calculated the return journey every year.
The homework questions have been solved, and it is time to come back every year.
The three stones left every year represent the three parties on Cherbourg that flew away - perhaps it should be called Se Island now:
Ruby Grand Duke, the actual controller of Se Island;
The Grand Duke of Ruby, with his back on the Dwarf King, his three daughters were killed by his husband, and there was still a young son;
Paso's mercenary group is about to become the permanent force of Se Island.
The topic of every year is that these three parties can form a few pairs of cooperation and a few pairs of enemies.
Qi Youfeng once heard from Nian Nian that she wanted to accelerate the division of the dwarf kingdom's camp, and after being persuaded by her, she flew to Se Island in the human territory, it was the first and most critical step to launch the war of foreign invasion of the dwarfs.
It just so happened that the Dwarf King also had the intention to start a war, and the bridge built by Mrs. Ruby became a strong bond of interests.
But what happened to those people in Paso? If they said they were voluntarily staying as vanguards and airborne soldiers, would the Ruby Grand Duke and his family really have no grudges?
Qi Youfeng thought about it, but still asked every day to ask the standard answer.
At that time, in the auditorium of the Rubie Palace, I really stood by and watched the three daughters.
Mrs. Ruby's character exceeded her expectations again. She might not have noticed it at that time, but there was a lot of time for the mother to think about every bit of it at that time.
It is hard to say whether Mrs. Ruby would hate her and cause trouble for her.
Niannian didn’t know how deep the relationship between the couple was. It was impossible to predict whether these two people would reconcile their past grudges and go hand in hand to keep Se Island in airtight.
Therefore, he made some small moves every year to briefly block the resurrection rules of Seo Island, leaving Paso and others with no way out. He also told Tristan about the exhaustion of dwarves' resources and the war of aggression. As expected, Paso's interest and asked him to voluntarily get a share of the pie.
Tristan also told him that the flying island of Se can only be controlled by the Ruby family, and the Ruby Grand Duke is the only child and is still young.
Will Paiso tamper with that child? Will the Grand Duke resent her husband who accepted the mercenary surrender? Will the Ruby Guild trust Paiso's mercenaries? Will Raso's craftsman skills, Paiso's mind and player's connections bring any variables to the war?
These three parties will become entangled balls of thread, and there can be many interesting combinations and splits, bringing more interesting unknowns.
Qi Youfeng had to admit that she had a lot of ability to make trouble every year, but her playfulness ignored the consequences, and it was even more impossible for her to help end the curtain call.
Most people make plans for control, and every year, they are to make things separate from anyone's control, including herself.
Speaking of which, this girl should have arrived, right?
Qi Youfeng held the three stones in his hand, raised his head, and just caught the figure that was shakingly flying into the crowd. He couldn't help but smile, stood up and jumped off the boulder to see what good show to play today.
When he put the dying dwarf on his back on the ground, a sharp scream erupted from Fern's mouth, like a castrated mouse:
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
This young man wearing a purple satin robe and a gem crown is their crown prince?
But......
Everyone looked at the arrow inserted into the chest of His Royal Highness the Prince, and then looked at his breath that was so weak that it was almost gone, and silently lowered his head.
"I went to the capital to deliver the letter. When I came back, I ran into him unconscious outside the capital gate. It seemed that someone was searching for him, so I brought him back."
Every year sighed and looked at Fern:
"When I was in Stein before, did the little girl give you any medicine?"
