Chapter 713
2014-08-16
Violent explosions were heard incessantly, fierce fires shot into the sky from time to time, billowing smoke had already enveloped the whole city... this night , the imperial city is doomed **!Because the powerhouses of the Wild Eagle Tribe were in a hurry, they didn't notify Tang En that they had left the imperial city, so those soldiers were still trembling with fear in the West City District. .
After waiting for the Imperial Palace to react, and without scolding the powerhouses and hurriedly conveying the news, almost all of the mines that Tang En had spent overnight were triggered. Soldiers suffered heavy casualties.
And just when the people of the imperial city were huddled in their houses and still trembling with fear, there was a sudden explosion like heaven falls and earth rends from outside the city, and even the ground of the houses here trembled. Such a terrifying natural phenomenon, like the end of the day, made all the people in the city the soul flew away and scattered, screaming again and again.
At this time, the Imperial Palace castle can no longer be watched. After all, the safety of the imperial city is of course more important than watching the mad eagle tribe make a fool of himself. The iron gate of the castle slammed open, and Imperial Family guards flooded into each city like a tide, blocking all streets, and constantly appeasing the people of the northern desert who were fleeing everywhere.
Among them, especially a place in Nancheng District that is not a remote, but not a prosperous area, was instantly surrounded by the Imperial Family guards who came in, and the guards were heavily guarded.
There is a reason for such seriousness. In fact, the reason is quite simple, that is, because this is the habitat of most Titus people in the imperial city.
As Tang En knew before, the Titus people had a very difficult time in this northern desert imperial city, and were often bullied at will by the northern desert people. And even the queen is powerless to this problem. After all, it is caused by the grievances between the two countries that have lasted for hundreds of thousands of years. It is a problem left over from history and cannot be resolved at all.
And over time, the Titus people who gradually formed a group moved to a place to live in order to avoid being beaten when they went out. As a result, there is now this rather alternative area.
At this time, in a house near the middle of the street, a bloated, tall and strong Beihuang woman hid behind the window, stuck out half her head, and watched the outside gradually enter. The soldiers in the street turned their heads and said anxiously: "Come in, they're in... old ghoul, what should I do now? It's not for our house, right?"
Although he is from the northern wilderness, But the woman's Titus words were smooth.
"Ah... eh?" Sitting at the table in the main room was the man of the house, Matthew Man. He was staring at the brown wooden box on the table in a daze at this time, and when he heard the sound, he turned his head and looked blank.
Seeing this, the Beihuang woman was immediately furious: "You damned old man, you are usually just muddheaded, now what time is it, you are still stupid here! I shouldn't have promised to marry you at that time. Otherwise, I will suffer this crime..." While cursing ramble, he held the two sleepy-looking children next to him in his arms, looking horrified.
That's right, this Beihuang woman is indeed Matthew Man's wife. This of course seems unbelievable, after all, one is from Titus and the other is from Beihuang, but in fact, this situation is very common in this area.
The idea of loyalty to one's country is sacred, but at times extremely unrealistic. Just like Matthew Man, who has been in Beihuang for nearly 20 years, from a strong middle-age person to a gray-bearded old man, and if there is no accident, he will definitely become one here. A pile of dead bones.
In this way, whether in terms of physical needs or spiritual comfort, he needs a partner who can carry on his lineage and accompany him as he ages.
It's not about loyalty, it's about surnames! Can be despised, but also understandable!
Of course, it would be best if you could marry a woman from your own country, so that you can skip the long-term painful run-in caused by differences in culture, living habits, etc. However, this is undoubtedly not in the world. The reason why these people were only captured, not killed, is of course because they have something that is valued by Beihuang, and it is precisely because of this characteristic that they are determined. The composition will only be more men than women.
On the other hand, there are quite a few poor families in the northern desert, even in this imperial city. So instead of only increasing the burden on the family, it is better to choose to marry a Titus man who has a good job, at least so that he will not starve to death. Or, those Beihuang women who were widowed and widowed, their vision was not too picky at the time... If one wanted to marry, the other wanted to marry, it would naturally be a hit.
And these Beihuang women don't have to worry about being unfairly treated when they marry Titus men like Matthew Man. After all, according to the size of the two sides, there are really few Titus men who can beat them...
Hearing his wife's constant cursing, Matthew Man's figure shrank, subconsciously revealing a little flattering Meaningful sneer: "hehe, don't worry, it shouldn't be..."
Before he finished speaking, suddenly, peng peng peng ... slammed the door vigorously, and shouted with a reprimanding tone, " Open the door, and the people inside will open the door immediately!"
"...Our house, scared!" Matthew Man looked shocked, body trembled, and almost slipped off his chair.
"Mom, who is outside?" The two children were young, so naturally they couldn't understand the situation in front of them.
"Soldiers...or Imperial Family guards!" He glanced through the window and saw the soldiers walking on the street entering the front yard of his house. The Beihuang woman was also shocked and suddenly hugged him. The next two children, facing Matthew Man, roared, "Damn, what the fuck did you do? Why did they find us?"
"I, I, I..." Always timid and timid Matthew Man was also stunned, his mind was blank, and he stammered and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
The sound of slamming on the door was even more urgent. At this moment, the Beihuang woman gritted her teeth, picked up the two children, took a few quick steps, shoved them into Matthew Man's arms, and rushed into the kitchen, but after a while, The sleeves were rolled up, and each of the two thick furry arms ran out with a bright kitchen knife, and shouted loudly: "Old and dead, bring the children to run through the back door, I will block them!"
Matthew Manwen Yan suddenly shivered, suddenly remembered something, let go of the two children, grabbed the brown wooden box on the table and got up: "Don't be afraid, I have..."
Boom...with a loud noise, the wooden door of the house After all, it couldn't stop such a violent blow and collapsed, revealing the silhouette of the Imperial Family guard outside like a wolf.
The room was quiet at first, and then suddenly a harsh scream, "Ah! The old lady is fighting with you!" Waving a kitchen knife, the woman in the northern wilderness rushed forward with the huge figure, the floor rumbled, Quite a crazy imposing manner of if a Person blocks, then kill the Person, gods block then kill gods.
shua... The Imperial Family guard who took the lead in entering the house couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this, subconsciously pulled out his saber around his waist, and was about to slash it with his arm. And at this moment, the thunder roared violently, "Stop it!" The sound kept echoing in the house.
The woman in the Northern Wilderness stepped one stopped, the kitchen knife was fixed in mid-air, and was immediately taken down by the arm stretched out from behind and thrown aside. Matthew Man patted her arms, her face was a little frightened, but her voice was still stable: "Don't be afraid, there is me." Walk towards the Imperial Family guards.
From the blue veins on the backs of the hands that were tightly grasping each other, it was obvious that they were nervous, but the Beihuang women were still stunned when they looked at Matthew Man's back, and their eyes were vaguely unfamiliar. This... Or the old jerk who usually only knows how to bend over and keep apologizing?
"Are you Matthew Man?" The Imperial Family guard looked up and down and asked.
Nodding, "Yes, who are you?"
"We are..." Before the Imperial Family guards finished speaking, Matthew Man shouted angrily, "I know you are... Imperial Family guards, but... dammit! Who gave you the right to smash the door and force your way into the house? Robber? Don't you know I'm the Chief-In-Charge of the craftsman's area? Can you afford it..."
"I ****!" The Imperial Family guard was stunned by the mad Tempest swearing like rain, came back to his senses and suddenly became furious and raised his sword...
"Chop, come, chop at this!" He raised the brown wooden box over the top and opened it, revealing a bamboo tube about a foot long, inlaid with lenses. He was blushing, waved his hand and yelled, "Do you know what this is? This is a telescope, this is Her Royal Highness Lansa...and what the Queen wants! Chop, why don't you chop it! You chop this thing down today, tomorrow you The whole family fell on their heads, believe it or not? Do you believe it or not!"
Insulting and threatening, his fingers almost poked the nose of the stunned Imperial Family guard, "damned bastard! Do you think I'm easy to bully, don't you? So who is your captain of the guard? Andre? Let him come to see me... What are you doing here? Usually it's just muddleheaded, now what time is it, you're still stupid here! Get out of here! Get out! "
Matthew Man subconsciously roared the familiar rambles and curses of his own maiden, which was a slap in the face. Even the old face with green and red faces now seems to have an imposing manner without anger and self-arrogance.
The room was silent, the two children were frightened, the Beihuang women were stunned, and the Imperial Family guards were dumbfounded. Have they ever seen the usual cowering Titus people and roared them? In addition, listening to Andre, Her Royal Highness Lansa, the Empress, one of which is more scary than the other, I couldn't help but nodded, obediently and honestly put away the sword and exited the house.
And just as these Imperial Family guard silhouettes disappeared at the door, Matthew Man's body suddenly softened and collapsed to the ground, sweat dripping down, and his undulating chest was like a broken bellows. of wheezing violently.
"Old ghost!" came back to his senses, the Beihuang woman couldn't help but screamed and walked over quickly, "What's wrong with you? Where are you hurt..."
"hū chī ... hū chī ... scared me to death... hurry up, bring me a glass of water, I can't do it anymore..."
