Chapter 104
cold wind whistling, cold silver hooks hung under the dome of Deep Limburg, the wrapped in silver and white castle became much deserted at night, and the noise of a long day can no longer be heard .
There are only a few windows of the castle under the moonlight that are still shining with the glow of fire, and it is completely shrouded in darkness. The castle guards holding the torch patrolling in the cold wind can see nothing but themselves.
Under the cover of this night, a group of cautiously avoided the shadows of patrolling soldiers, and quietly approached the only one of the entire castle where the fire was lit-the granary of Deep Limburg.
Even in normal times, the guarding near the granary is still very tight, not to mention that Ruben’s three Knights and two castle guards are guarded in shifts, and the defensive measures are extremely strict.
The granary is the lifeline of the entire Deep Limburg. If you lose Ruben here, you will lose the capital against the entire Deep Limburg aristocracy. It is even more impossible to let the civilians stand by his side desperately.
Sir Aaron’s departure is no secret, and these nobles are also full of eyeliners in the castle, trying to figure out the content of the meeting between Lord Count and his two close friends, they have a means.
From the very beginning, this "reform" is not just a matter of a few pieces of land, but is about the ruling power of Shenlinbao count, and who is holding it.
The nobles of Deep Limburg who are on the verge of life and death are finally ready to take the risk!
"Have you brought everything?"
A one-eyed person walking in the front asked in a low voice behind him, desperately lowering his throat. A panicked guy ran over and threw the heavy sacks on the ground.
Flintstone, butter, torch, and even two bottles of ignitor with the words "Wimpal Academy" inscribed. The contents of this bag are enough to blow up the entire granary!
"Very good." One-eyed person nodded, his eyes swept across the faces of the few people in front of him: "When the guards of those castles change shifts, we will sneak in."
"I have bought one of the Captains. When the time comes, he will open a back door for us. The Knights of the guards will never find it-then we will sneak in and give our master count a great gift!"
He said this with a grinning yellow tooth and a grim expression. And the nobles around each "hehe" smiled, smiling like a hyena.
It didn't take long for a group of castle guards holding a torch to come to the granary gate. After greeting the responsible guard, Knight, they replaced the original guards.
The nobles who saw the opportunity no longer waited, avoiding the sight of the Knights of the guard. The leading one-eyed person terrified and over-cautious walked forward and saw Captain, the guard who had come, looked around before beckons with the hand let the one-eyed person come over.
"You haven't been spotted?"
"Don't worry, no one knows." The smiling one-eyed person stuffed a handful of Silver Coin into his hand.
Captain, the lightly coughed guard, turned around and walked to the back door of the granary as if nothing happened, pushed a little through the gap, and put a group of people in.
Just after the last one slipped in, the narrow door was immediately closed, shocking the guys standing behind, swallowed saliva and said: "He will remember to open the door for us. Right?"
"Don't worry, this guy has charged me a lot of money, and he's still my cousin's nephew, and won't cheat us." The one-eyed person replied confidently, in his pupils As if burning flames, his posture was almost crazy.
"Now, let's do a big job--!"
The nobles who were accomplices also lit the torch one after another, and the blazing fire lit a dark granary.
The one-eyed person who was trembling with a gentle cold wind couldn't help closing his only one eye. When he opened his eyes again, all the torch was actually out.
The dead granary returned to darkness, and all the nobles looked at each other in blank dismay.
"...The wine is so drunk, but it gives you courage"
The young voice sings a quiet song, and there is a trace of laziness, I don’t know where to come from Floating into everyone's ears. The one-eyed person who suddenly woke up immediately pulled out his long sword.
"Who is it, come out for me——!"
The nobles who also reacted also took out their weapons, forming a circle trembling with fear. In the lonely granary, no voice answered them.
The startled one-eyed person couldn't help but laughed, as if emboldening himself, his hands holding the sword hilt were full of sweat.
Could it be that it was just my own illusion just now? That's right... How could there be a child in this granary? I must be too nervous and the hallucinations.
The nobles looked at each other and smiled, but there was a little fear under the smile, and the laughter echoed under the barn, sending cold shivers down one's spine in a dead silence.
"...The extinguished flames are rising in my heart"
"Who! Stand up for me——!" I was really scared this time The one-eyed person shouted desperately. There was no more response from the fleeting song.
"Don't be scared, grab this damn little thing!" The torch that snatched the person behind ignited, and the one-eyed person holding the sword walked in front: "I Let him be broken into pieces!"
"...Listen, Ye Xiao’s cry, that’s the sound of the death knell, it’s the sound of good night"
No nobleman dared to stay where he was, and followed behind the one-eyed person in horror—the song was like humming in his own ears, even if they couldn't see who it was, it made them trembling in fear.
Perhaps it is because they cannot see that makes them even more scared.
The torch illuminates the faces filled with horror. There are countless demons lurking in the deadly darkness, ready to hold your shoulders from behind.
The one-eyed person who walked in the front dared not stop for a moment. He didn't know where the singing came from, just aimlessly walking forward. The cold sweat oozing from his forehead fell like his eyes, and he dared not let go of the sword in his hand and wipe it.
Who is it, and where is it? !
"...He did it quietly, did it quietly"
Behind him came a life-long scream, and a guy walking behind suddenly collapsed to the ground , Torch also fell to the ground, crying with a sad face: "Ha, Hubble and Neeson are gone, all of a sudden!"
What? !
The one-eyed person who was also trembling in fear stopped in place, his forehead was already covered with cold sweat, his trembling pupils looked around, but he couldn't find anything except what he saw in front of him.
"Don't worry about those two idiots anymore, don't forget what we are doing tonight!" one-eyed person stared wide-eyed, yelling as if covering up his fear:" Light up all these grains and let our master count cry!"
The nobles who found the backbone suddenly nodded and waved the torch in their hands like venting their fears. The ignitant was thrown into the earthen pot far away.
Everyone waited, but no one heard the sound of the ignitor falling.
The one-eyed person twitched his throat and stepped forward boldly. The torch in his hand illuminates the empty clay pot.
It's actually empty!
He turned over the clay pots and wooden shelves around him as if he did not believe in evil, but the reality was shocked and he was stunned.
They are all empty, there is not a single grain of wheat in this granary!
People like myself have been fooled!
"...The door is open, the window is also open, where are the snoring soldiers"
An inexplicable scream came from behind, one-eyed person Without the slightest hesitation, he left his comrades, his eyes widened and rushed in the direction of the door desperately.
"Open the door, open the door! It's me, open the door!" Before running to the door, the one-eyed person yelled desperately, panting and holding the door frame with his palm. He was stunned by the cold touch.
Subconsciously lifting the torch, there is only a cold wall in front of him.
The open mouth can't be called, only the sound of "chuck...".
"...Look at the way they are sleeping, who knows whether it is dead or alive?"
The smiling Asriel hummed softly, staring at him completely stupid with scarlet eyes. One-eyed person, the corner of his mouth still has traces of the tip of his tongue.
"Since you want to see me so eagerly, it is as you wish, sir."
The sharp sword in his hand was taken away, and the young man’s fingertips slipped gently After that, breaking the biscuit turned the long sword into two pieces.
The one-eyed person slumped to the ground, shivering as he watched a young man in a red and black dress hold his shoulders, and his pale lips slowly climbed up to his neck.
"Just, I wonder if you mind... entertain me?"
