MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 2 cheese
Longji Mountain has not been so lively for a long time. Really, or Longji Mountain has not been so lively since that legendary war. Gray robe, the gray robe in the ancient training! All the frost guards were boiling. Soon, from the commander-in-chief to the ordinary soldiers, almost all the guards gathered near the post where Bai An was located, and their voices also made people worry whether they would cause an avalanche. .
The old commander Jon summoned Bian the first time, or the old commander came to the outpost the first time. His adjutant said in private, apart from being chased out by the commander's wife with a rolling pin from the tavern This was the fastest commander he had seen in the past decade. Of course, no one was trying to stop the commander along the way. Although the northerners were straight, they were absolutely not stupid. God knows what the gray-robed man really is. The commander should not be so hastily in contact with each other. But the old commander made these people retreat in just one sentence.
"Do you want me to show a person from my hometown that we are now weak?"
In a word, these northern men suddenly had nothing to say, they could only silently follow behind the commander and walk to the outpost where the gray robe was found. The dark clouds in the sky become thicker and thicker, and the arrival of the snowstorm seems to happen at any time.
"So, are you an eyewitness?" Jon asked, and the old commander wore a thick black animal skin cloak to separate the noisy crowd.
"Yes, sir. I saw him there." Bai An pointed in the direction of the gray robe.
So the commander took out the telescope in his arms and looked in which direction, and then he saw a gray figure standing motionless on the ice field. It seemed that the cold wind could not make the people in the robe feel cold.
Similarly, many people couldn't help but curiosity, and looked at it with binoculars. But these soldiers watched it for a while, and besides making sure that the figure hadn't moved, it seemed they could confirm nothing.
"Your Excellency, what should we do?" An adjutant asked. The old commander put down the telescope, and he noticed that the adjutant had a two-handed crossbow in his hand. In fact, many soldiers carried similar weapons when they arrived. They are very anxious.
"Put up your weapons, my countryman, do our Frost Guards need to use force to threaten a single stranger?" Jon said with a smile.
Because of the commander's words, those soldiers with bows and crossbows also put away these weapons. It seemed that the old commander's laugh had some magical power, which made the frost guard's uneasiness calm down a lot. This is the ability to be a leader. Jon has used his calmness and reason to guide the legion away from unnecessary disputes countless times in his military career.
And on the ice field, where they can't hear. The figure of the gray robe raised his head and looked at the sensational tower, smiled and whispered.
"For the time being, it's considered qualified. It seems that at least you don't need to see blood anymore."
In the end, the old commander stood out from the crowd and decided to put down the hanging basket to let the gray-robed man come up. His reason was-the blizzard is coming, can't you let people stand in the snow?
After about an hour or so, the Frost Guards finally found the dusty hanging basket from the warehouse. This was originally intended to greet the explorers who went to the north, but it has passed by and has not been used for years. The soldiers carefully lowered the gondola with anxiety, half of them were afraid of this gray robe, and the other half were afraid that the gondola would fall when the half rises and the gray robe will be killed. But in short, this dilapidated gondola is still of excellent quality, moaning, and at the same time, the mysterious visitor was sent to the sentry tower. The old commander personally brought five people to greet and disperse more soldiers on the city wall. As he said before, he did not want the mysterious man in the ancient training to think that the frost guards are now a group of cowards.
"Crunch, crunch" The frozen tight rope made a worrying sound, first the hood, then the upper body, and finally, the gray robe appeared in front of the frost guards.
"Hoo ... guys, please tell me that your hanging basket should be changed. When I came up, I was always worried that the rope would break." This is the first sentence of this gray robe. In a word, um, can't be greeted in history. Although the record of the encounter between Commander Jon and the Grey Master in the future generations has always been legendary, is history always legendary? Is it important that those colors are added by future generations, or are they already present?
In fact, Rao is the old commander who made all kinds of preparations, but when he heard the gray robe, he still blushed old, and he could only cough twice, hoping to divert this embarrassing topic.
"That, respectable gray robe, we follow the ancient training to greet you, please say your request."
"Ask? Ah, that's not anxious. Can you get me some food first? In order to hurry up, I have, um, haven't eaten in three days, since ... I ate the last sled After the dog. "Said the gray robe.
...... So the result of this meeting was that the old commander took the gray-robed man to the top of the Dragon's Back to eat. This is not to say that there is nothing to eat on the fortress, but the old commander is really reluctant to let this noble guest eat those hard and tasteless dry food.
"Two roasted deer legs, two roasted lamb legs, four pork ribs, two cheeses, and some bread side dishes, ah, yes, a barrel of ale!" Standing in front of the counter on the top of Longji, The gray robe said fluently. What he said was so smooth, it made people wonder if he had been thinking about what to eat on the way.
"According to what he said." The old commander said blankly to the stunned boss lady. Then he dragged the gray-robed man who was looking around to find a big table to sit down, um, in view of what the gray-robed man ordered, the old commander took him directly to the largest table.
The old commander did not come to the top of the Dragon's Back very much. In fact, because he and the original owner of the pub were very close friends, the old lady called him "Grandpa Jon" very affectionately, maybe because the old commander had no heirs The reason, he looks like his granddaughter to his old friend's granddaughter, um, maybe a little bit closer than his own? Therefore, people who often come to the tavern know that although the old man is the largest military commander of the Longji Mountains outside, but in this tavern, it is just a kind old man. An outrageous and kind old man with quick skills and great strength. It is said that there is a standard among the proprietress ’s suitors, and only those who win the old commander are eligible to become the proprietress ’s boyfriend.
"So, um, master, can you tell me your intention now?" Jon asked, looking at the young man who put down the hood and drank three large glasses of ale in a row without changing the color, which caused a round of applause. .
"Of course, of course, I'm sorry I'm so hungry, you know, it's not too hard to find something to eat outside the mountain." The young man said with a shy smile.
"Ah, well, you don't have to call me a master, I'm far from this title, if you want, you can call me, cheese."
"Okay, big, no, Lord, cheese," it's a weird name, the old commander thought, "Can you tell me your intention? Also, if you don't offend, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, I also want to know how you lived outside the mountain. "
Yes, although the old commander really cares about the ancient lesson, he is more concerned about how this person came from the ice field. There should be no creatures on the ice field. Or, say, far away from them, the land of his hometown Has it been unfrozen quietly? At the thought of this thought, the heartbeat of the old commander began to unconsciously accelerate, that is the dream of every generation of northerners.
"Well, do n’t worry, Mr. Commander. We will come one by one. First of all, I will answer your most concerned questions first. I regret that the mountain is still frozen. As for how I live outside the mountain, um, I It can only be said that this is a secret. And it ’s not universal, even if I tell you, you ca n’t take people to reclaim outside the mountain. ”The cheese paused and let the old commander digest his words.
"Then, about my intentions, in fact I am as puzzled as you are. I am following some greater, uh, the prophet ’s instructions come here at this time, as for what I do after I come, how? Dry, I am also confused. "He shrugged and made a helpless gesture.
The old commander's face showed a little disappointment, but it was more of a blessing. Although there was no good news, at least it was not bad news, was it? But then the words of the gray robe made the old commander nervous again.
"Although what I can tell you is limited, but even to repay this meal, I will give you a suggestion. Based on what I just saw, heard, and felt in this small town, I have a preliminary judgment. Please be careful about threats, threats from the South. I do n’t know what to call them, but, they are coming. ”The cheese said with a smile on his face.
