Chapter 174 173 The Unexpected Law
Chapter 174 173. The unexpected law
"You two, bandage him first."
Lan En took back Arondette and gave orders to the two intact cavalrymen.
The actual results made these two warriors who had a good relationship with Lan En now obey his orders. To a certain extent, this can be regarded as a manifestation of his personality charm.
"I'll give you the dagger. The shooter's trachea was cut by the blade and he choked to death on his own blood. How are you?"
After Lan En found the shooter's body from the woods, he walked to Ed. While handing Ed the gorgeous dragon bone dagger, he asked about his injuries.
The Duke of the North gasped and waved his hands.
"I gave you the dagger. Without you, all of us would have had our heads removed. My injury is not bad. No bones were hurt by this blow on my arm. Just bandage it."
Lan En nodded slightly and inserted the dragon bone dagger into the scabbard of his hunting knife.
"I see you look relieved." The demon hunter raised his eyes and looked at Ed, "It seems that [Magic Mountain] died here, which made you very relieved?"
Qiao Li bent down slightly, put down the hatchet in his hand, pulled out the long sword from his waist, and moved towards the pile of boxes.
"Sir! We found the horses they brought here in the woods. There were too many dead among them, so we couldn't ride them all away. We just gave them to you."
Lan En smiled and patted the handle of the dragon bone knife at his waist.
"You paid the bill, Ed."
Qiao Li walked toward the woods behind the camp with his hatchet in hand, but when he passed by the pile of boxes on the car, he suddenly slowed down his steps.
Contrary to the common sense of many people, the xylem of plants does great damage to the blade, so a sword that is used to cut people will not double up as a hatchet unless there is no substitute.
After saying that, Qiao Li took out the hatchet from the pile of debris and prepared to chop some.
He knew what was going on without even thinking!
"Oh." The little girl nodded obediently and closed her mouth.
Fortunately, he also said that the box was unusually heavy! It contained a direwolf and a child!
"Yes, a custom. When we are not too obsessed with rewards, we tend to let the gods decide what to give us."
Lan En nodded naturally.
So, when Ed and Lan came back with the three surviving soldiers covered in blood, the first thing they saw was the little girl and the direwolf sitting by the fire.
"That's not enough." The Duke of the North said seriously, "That's far from enough to repay your help, whether in King's Landing or here. You deserve more and better things."
"This firewood is not enough, I will get some more."
Ed sat down on the body, took out the gauze and wrapped it around himself, while putting on a smile on his face covered in cold sweat.
In this dark night, Jory could recognize this little Stark lady without even using a torch!
really!
So the two looked at each other, nodded to each other, and prepared to get up and leave.
——
In the simple camp set up by Qiao Li, they were setting up a pot to boil water and then prepare to put wheat and dried meat in it.
The things on the cart were piled together and covered with tarpaulins.
Why can you reveal your secrets?
Seeing Lan En's casual look, Ed nodded and agreed to the reward.
Qiao Li, who just now had a "fight to the death" look on his face, now his eyes widened with a look of madness on his face and he shouted uncontrollably.
"I know, go ahead."
Behind a pile of boxes, I saw a thin and small shadow, followed by a pair of gleaming wolf eyes, standing on the edge of the box and taking out dried meat.
"Ah, aha! Uncle Jory!"
According to Lan En's estimation, this thing was probably a roast rabbit or deer steak that Jory had put on the fire.
"After you go back, give me the first thing you see, the thing you already own but don't know about."
But as soon as he finished speaking, an inexplicable breeze blew through the forest, making the leaves rustle.
By the way, her mouth and Nymeria's mouth both had a piece of dried meat stuffed bulgingly.
Ed was obviously stunned when he heard this request.
So as if jokingly, Lan En said something in a very nonchalant tone.
No matter who is behind the box, he can't leave today.
"Aliya?!!!"
When it comes to gold coins, he is actually not very good at holding them anymore.
Because there was actually a "clattering" sound coming from the box that was supposed to be just a pile of dead things.
It’s a custom! It’s nonsense!
Lan En curled his lips helplessly.
And seeing as you've been running away for so long, you probably don't have time to send him back, so you might as well just keep him with you.
"Uncle Qory, this was a complete accident."
Stiff knights are not easily persuaded.
The ten thousand gold dragons in the tournament are already a lot, plus I have to get the dragon bones. If I want any more gold coins, I have to worry about whether I can get home.
"Aliya, shut up!"
At the same time, the experienced guard captain was also secretly guessing what was going on.
The guard captain moved slowly.
"Okay, if you really want to give"
"Is this a custom from your hometown? It's a bit too strange."
The two fully intact cavalrymen finished cleaning up the battlefield and shouted happily towards Lan En and Ed.
Then Jory Kelso is naturally ready to kill all the enemies he encounters on the road.
"The reputation of [The Magic Mountain] resounds throughout the Seven Kingdoms. Even he died here this time. It is unlikely that Tywin will send a stronger team to stop us. Even if he wants to send one, someone must dare to take it.
Who dares to say that his small team can be stronger than [Magic Mountain]?"
Aaliya said hello awkwardly. At this time, Qiao Li had started to hold his head and had a headache.
One of his men was cutting dried meat and raised his head and replied.
So at the moment, Lan En didn't have any grudge against this sentence in his heart.
The Duke of the North first called out "Alia" in surprise, and then he seemed to remember something. He opened his mouth and turned to look at the Witcher behind him.
If the Duke of the North hadn't received a good education, he wouldn't even be able to understand the grammar in the sentence just now.
Qiao Li's face turned pale as soon as he heard the beginning.
"As for taking turns to harass? If Tywin Lannister can send troops into the riverlands and the king's territory one after another, I don't think we need to fight him. We might as well admit defeat."
The little girl who was taking out dried meat from the box froze, then slowly and tentatively turned back, giving Qiao Li a flattering smile.
"Wait until your father comes back." Qiao Li covered his face frantically, "You can tell your father yourself."
Jory Kelso looked at the water line in the pot and frowned.
Qiao Li knew very well what would happen to Aria next. She would definitely find a bunch of reasons to make people laugh, intending to show that her coming here was a complete accident.
Moreover, as a demon hunter wandering the world alone, it seems that there is not much use in asking for too many gold coins to go back.
Beast? Rat? Spy? Assassin?.
In any case, under the current situation, whoever hinders the return of the Northern Duke to mobilize troops will have a huge impact on the war situation.
This sentence once turned him into a de facto slave, but at the moment of Bordon's death, Lan En personally said to him "come clean".
But looking at Ed like this, he definitely has to repay himself.
The scene behind the box is about to come into view.
"You have been a great help, Lan En. After this time, our journey back to the north will definitely be much smoother. I want to give you the reward you deserve. Let me give you the number. Lan En Stark will satisfy his friends."
Then I realized that the witcher's expression was very different from his.
