Chapter 54 Clues
The temperature in the summer afternoon was very high, and people were dizzy. They had just experienced a big war outside Helanshan City, leaving countless corpses piled up there, which was shocking.
This is the first attack by the Warcraft Empire, but Fortunately, the human empire finally successfully resisted the pressure and failed to let them succeed.
On the wall, Ike, Birian and Dolvia sat in the corner of the wall, holding a golden pipe in their hands, smoking while listening to the soldiers next to them telling their stories.
In these days' battles, Ike has been in the limelight. He killed more people alone than a team, and his brave and invincible appearance was deeply imprinted in the hearts of these soldiers.
They worshiped Ike, but at the same time they were afraid of him and dared not talk to him. They could only secretly take a look at this usually gentle man. They really can't imagine why he was so brave on the battlefield.
Ike has heard a lot about the stories of these grassroots soldiers these days. Although they are ordinary, they can occasionally find a little fun. More importantly, they are all farmers like him.
It's already noon. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be time for dinner in half an hour. Ike should usually pack up at this time, patrol again, and then go to lunch, but he didn't leave today. He heard some useful news so he could continue to sit there. .
Sitting there like Ike are several soldiers wearing cloth clothes and hanging swords on their waists. They were all soldiers of Helanshan City, but now they are only responsible for patrolling the wall instead of killing the enemy on the battlefield.
One of the soldiers with a slightly bigger head looked mysteriously. Of course, he took a special look at Ike's side and felt that the distance between the two groups was safe. As long as the voice was lowered, the other party should not be heard, and then he said, "Do you know those three ice palace people?"
"We all know this. What do you think they do? One by one, they are so dragging that they simply don't treat people as people," a soldier complained, and it is likely that he has been angry with several people.
"Hey, I told you that the last time I was on the night shift with several buddies, when I was about to hand over, I saw one of them, carrying a quilt on his shoulder, jumped up from the wall, and then jumped out of the city. After about 20 minutes, he came back, but the quilt on his shoulder was not See, don't you think it's strange?" said the soldier.
"Ah, you can jump directly from under the wall with something on your shoulder. You're not lying to us, are you?" Another soldier obviously didn't believe it.
Although the wall of Helanshan City is not the tallest wall in the world, it is also seven or eight feet high. Not to mention carrying things, even if it is empty-handed, it is not something ordinary people can do. Even Ike is not confident that he can jump up. If the soldier is not bragging, it shows that the strength of that person is absolutely strong. Incomparable.
Ike's heart moved. He thought that he and Birian happened to see Mark's brother Gissatu jump off the wall that day. It seemed that the soldier should be talking about him, but Ike also had a doubt that Gissatu's strength should not be so strong. If he could really jump on the wall, then it would be very It may be a three-sided or even four-sided swordsman, which can do it, but if he really has such high strength, the two of them should be found out eavesdropping outside the room that day. Did he deliberately hide his strength? So why did he find himself and Billian, but pretended not to find it?
Ike was puzzled and wanted to hear what the soldier said again, but they had changed the topic. Ike had no choice but to stand up and walk to them.
"Brother, I just heard that someone will jump up from under the wall, but I don't believe it. You must be lying," Ike spit out a smoke ring and said slowly.
"I didn't lie!" The man had a little worship of Ike before. At this moment, he saw that he didn't believe himself and said that he was lying. His image of him plummeted, and he almost turned against Ike.
"Then who do you think that person is? What does it look like? As long as you can explain the man's appearance clearly, we will believe you." Of course, Ike actually knows what the man looks like. He asked, just to find a step for the soldier before he can continue the following topic.
"I know that man is from the Ice Palace, very tall..." The soldier described Gissato's appearance.
"I'm sorry, brother, I misunderstood you. I believe you said, but you said he still carried a quilt on his shoulder. Do you know what's in the quilt?" Ike continued to ask.
The man saw that Ike had a good attitude and apologized. These people's thoughts were simple and they didn't think too much, so he forgave Ike, but when he asked, he became nervous in an instant.
"Brother, do you want to take a sip? I don't mean anything else. I'm just curious about how someone came out of the bed blindly." Ike knew that he was afraid of saying what he shouldn't say in the future, so he said that he was just curious for a moment.
"Speaking of it, we also want to know." The people next to him also helped. Curiosity is a common problem. Originally, not many people cared about this if Ike didn't ask, but after Ike asked this question, everyone wanted to know what the answer was.
The man looked around carefully and didn't see the people in the ice palace. He took a sip of Ike's Lanxi grass smoke and suppressed the shock. Then he said in a low voice, "I tell you, don't pass it out."
"Don't worry, we will never tell anyone when we hear the story, out of your mouth and my ears," Ike quickly assured.
"Yes, yes, yes, we will never tell others", and others also quickly promised.
In fact, everyone knows that they will lose their lives on the battlefield at any time, and who else will protect this secret? I'm afraid that he has said it now. After a while, the whole barracks will know that their promise is like farting, but what the man wants is this sound. Since they have promised, then the most Later, it will still spread, but if someone really wants to pursue him, no one will confess him. This is an unspoken rule in the barracks, and every soldier must abide by it.
"Guess what I see in the quilt?" the man asked mysteriously.
"Lao Niu, say it quickly, we can't guess what you saw," said an excellent soldier with the nickname Lao Niu.
"Hey," Lao Niu grabbed his head proudly and said, "Although the man's quilt was wrapped tightly, I still saw a long hair exposed from the quilt."
