Chapter 1614 Conversation
After the two Red Guards left for a while, they started chatting. People always think that a quiet night is relatively safe, because they think that if someone eavesdrops, they can find it immediately, but they don't know that this is their psychological blind spot. Uncautious people will always amplify this inadequacy and expose it to the eyes and ears of caring people. People who are truly cautious in their words and deeds will not be blinded by this self-righteous self-confidence.
The man with the moustache was the first to speak: "You said we were running around all day and didn't even give us time to rest or sleep. We just ate something in the drugstore and now we're hungry. When I left, I didn’t even think about stuffing two loaves of bread for us, so I just let We are in a hurry."
The bald man said: "The boss means that these two things are very urgent and must be done as soon as possible."
The Eight-Character Hu said: "That's not in such a hurry. Ah, let us leave the city overnight.”
The bald man thought for a while and said: "Let's not talk about the second thing for now. The first thing is the most important thing. If you give us this task, we must do it well. As for letting us go in a hurry, I think it is also because of the daytime We are being followed and eavesdropped. We are traveling all night. If someone is following us, we will be able to find out."
The two of them spoke quietly, and Pige was silent behind them. Follow along and you can hear clearly.
Speaking of being followed during the day, the mustached man looked around carefully. After leaving the city, the two started talking again, and it was the man with the mustache who said first: "This time the eight-branch red It is very important for the guards to gather together. Let us find a safe place to hold the meeting. Which place do you think is safe?"
The bald man pondered and did not speak for a while.
Ba Zihu said: "According to me, it is the safest place in the wilderness. Who knows where they are meeting. If there is another layer of security posts outside, even if someone inadvertently breaks in, they will still be there. Know now.”
The bald man smiled: "It's safe for you to say that, but the Seven Kingdoms Alliance doesn't even have a decent meeting place. Isn't it too lackluster and statusless? What if you build a stronghold in the mountains like a robber? How can a meeting give the coalition forces confidence to restore the country, let alone this time? At the meeting, the person who contacted the seven countries will also show up."
"What you said makes sense." The man with the mustache touched his beard and said, "Then the rest. What about the second thing? I heard that the pirate who searched the mountains and seas wanted to capture Adelia. If Princess Hefemi is killed, so many of them can’t be found. Can the two of us find her?”
The bald man scratched his head: “I don’t understand this either, but we don’t need to understand the things above. , as long as it is implemented, he asked us to conduct a secret visit first, and then after the meeting. We will send people to assist later. We only need to do these two things and don’t need to think too much.”
After walking for a while, the bald man was a little tired, looked around and sighed: “Walking at night. It was too difficult to leave. There was no one on the road. We quickly found a place to rest in front of us. Half night, wait until tomorrow morning to hire a tenant and then start the journey."
Pige's pace was as silent as a ghost, and he could clearly hear every word of the conversation between the two people in front of him. He did not participate in the previous massacre of the royal family. But I also heard about it, I couldn’t help but frown, and thought to myself : "The alliance of the Seven Nations. The previous massacre policy was not as clean as the old stubborn expected. Once the seven-nation alliance is formed, it will also be a big obstacle to the old stubborn's plan. In addition, the person they said contacted the seven countries to gather. There may be someone else controlling this person. . Finally, why are they eager to find the missing princess of Adelia? I remember that this princess seems to be the future heir of Adelia. Is it related to the identity of the successor? " Thinking of this, he couldn't figure it out. , just said: "What should I do with these pieces of information now?" I can't tell Old Stubborn, but these two people are going to find the place where they are meeting, and I should keep an eye on them. As long as I find out the exact place where they are meeting, I can know who the person who gathered the remnants of the Seven Kingdoms is, maybe. You can also find out more information.”
...
In the church of the Holy Sound Sect, these days, after Malai has dealt with the follow-up matters, the believers in the church have gradually settled down and resumed their old lives. Although people from the security station occasionally come But he didn't make things difficult again.
In the past few days, Memphela has been living here. Xiko City is being built and expanded. There are more and more military control buildings such as the Zhan Zhan Academy. There is a lot of intelligence information that can be understood and mastered, and there is no rush. Check out other places. The main purpose of her coming here is to collect information and understand the exact true purpose of these 'pirates'. Although there were people from the Holy Sound Church who could help, it was not easy to use at the moment, not to mention she didn't want to implicate innocent people.
After dinner, Archbishop Malay asked Memphela: "What are we going to do next?"
Memphela smiled and said: "It's not us, it's me. . Thank you and the believers for your previous help.”
Malai was startled and asked: "What do you mean..."
Memphela said: "Before I came here, I only thought that the person who provided the information was the full-time intelligence personnel of 'GITW'. I didn't know it was you. . You have finally become a great teacher. You deserve it. Spread the gospel well and teach people to be good. You and your followers should not be allowed to fall into the troubled waters of war."
Malay just smiled after hearing this: "We are already in the middle of war, so what. How can we stay out of this mess? Even if they let Xiu go? The eldest daughter can't change the fact that they massacred people. The Holy Sound Sect has always taught people to abandon evil and embrace good, but it has never taught them to shrink and bow to evil."
"But your followers, they..."
“I know your Worry." Malai gathered his robes, walked to the god, looked at the table where legends and poems were usually written, and looked at the carved sacred patterns. After a while, he said: "I decided to resign from the post of great priest. The nun came to serve.”
Meng Feila was taken aback: "You..."
Ma Lai said: "You are a person who hates evil. My heart cannot tolerate a trace of evil, even in my once confused state. Even when I did many wrong things, I still hated myself at that time, so I wanted to atone for my sins at that time and alleviate this problem. The evil in the world."
"You have decided?"
"Yes."
Memphela sighed: "Since you have decided, I won't. I advise you. But the people you have to face may be more difficult than you know, and may even be life-threatening.”
Malai smiled faintly and said: "If I really die, I must have redeemed my sins, and the gods will call me back to heaven."
Memphela said nothing more.
After a while, Malai said: "Let's talk about what you plan to do."
Memphela said: "I believe you know the purpose of my coming here, mainly for To find out the true purpose of these 'pirates', although some guesses have been made through intelligence information, guessing is not as reliable as confirmed information."
"How to confirm it?" Marais asked.
Meng Feila touched the desk and said with a smile: "There are only two methods, covert investigation and open visit. Now that the information obtained from the covert investigation is not small, it is time for an open visit."
< br>"What do you mean?"
"Ask them face to face what they are going to do!" Malai was not satisfied with this. If Memphis had experience, she worried: "Will they tell the truth?"
Memphela turned around and walked to the door of the church and said: "I can judge whether they are telling the truth or not. Even if you want to lie, what lie can you tell? Let’s go now.”
"Now?!" Malai shook his head in astonishment and sighed bitterly: "You are still the same as before, just as decisive and resolute."
...
Nine days later, in the countryside On the empty construction site, Memphela met Marshal Fried as scheduled. Fried was wearing military armor and a sword, but he was ready to go.
"General Fried, you are dressed so grandly. I never thought we would meet here." Memphela stood in front of the tall Fried. The setting sun shone on Fried's back, casting a long shadow. The long figure seemed to completely shroud her in shadow. The two were several meters apart and looked at each other.
A smile appeared on Fried's face: "I have long heard of the title 'Silver Paladin Memphela'. When I saw her today, she turned out to be a beautiful woman."
The two of them met for the first time today, but they already knew each other. They were already well-known in the world. Now that they met, the atmosphere became as clear as their positions.
Memphela asked: "The general was once the general of one of the best empires in the world. How could he become the leader of a group of pirates today?"
"What about the pirates? What about the general?" So? A general can become a prisoner, and a pirate can become the king of a country."
< br>Memphela frowned slightly: "General, do you mean to open up new territories, establish a country and become a king?"
Fried did not answer directly, but stepped on the stone bricks of the construction site, Looking at the canyon in the distance, he said: "Do you know why I want to meet you here?"
Memphela said nothing.
Fried asked again: "Do you know what is being built here?"
Memphela looked at it again and said: "These stone foundations are only prototypes and cannot be seen."
Fried points forward Said: "The canyon in the distance is the only passage for the army to advance westward. As long as two fortresses and three defense towers are built here, no matter how many enemy troops there are, they will not even think about entering."
This The meaning of the sentence is as clear as day.
Memphela's face became stern: "The general has thought very carefully and made long-term preparations."
Fried said: "The battlefield is about advancing, attacking, retreating and defending. There is no such thing as How can we open up territory with peace of mind when we have a safe and stable rear area?”
Men Feila’s face was as dark as water, and after a while he turned around and said, “The general is far-sighted and has a clear plan for his own intentions. Nothing to hide."
With his hands on his sword, Fried looked down at her and said, "What are you hiding? Everyone in the Holy Garden has come here in person. You have seen everything you should see and heard. You have already heard about it. No matter how you hide it, you are just deceiving yourself.”
Men Feila said: “General, are you confident and courageous enough to continue to conquer the world?”
"How far can you fight? How do you know if you don't try? The glory of a soldier is not in a gentle and wealthy country, nor in a high-ranking officialdom, but on the battlefield. Life is an honor, and death is also an honor."
"The general is indeed a soldier." Menfeila looked calm and unfazed.
“Hahaha.” Fried laughed: “This is the best compliment I have ever heard.”
Memphela said: “But the war you have to face is I'm afraid it's not just the country's resistance."
"Do you want to say that Shengyuan is also involved?"
Menfeila said: "The position of the Holy Garden is that we never want to see too much killing. The general's battlefield is the forbidden place of the Holy Garden. The Holy Garden cannot sit back and watch."
Fried said with a smile: " Haha, at this point, there is nothing more to say. Paladin, let me send you away."< br>
"Wait." Meng Fei stopped and said, "I have one last question to ask the general."
"Oh, what question?"
Meng Fei La La frowned: "Who is the real leader behind the general? Can you tell me?"
