Chapter 2786 Wen Si’s Crime
Juswan City is a uniquely charming city. Because it is a seaport city, the architectural style is very different from other places. The bottom one or two floors of many buildings are It is suspended in the air. When a tsunami hits, several urban areas will be soaked in water, so there are many bridges connecting the towers.
After several inquiries, he first came to an inconspicuous but very good wooden magic weapon repair shop, and entrusted his damaged and cracked archbishop to be repaired. Then he inquired about nearby markets , prepare to buy several sets of well-fitting robes.
As one of the largest seaport cities in the world, there are so many people coming and going for trade that the city has an extremely large population, especially in the shopping district, which is crowded with pedestrians everywhere. And because the natural disaster did not come here, there were even more floating people here.
The greatest convenience of the port city is that you can buy rare and rare treasures from all over the world. Warcraft dealers, treasure dealers, seafood and aquatic products, and strange objects from exotic islands all come here in an endless stream, and there are also fine wines and delicious food. Silk armor and so on.
Yuko was walking on a pedestrian street that was not too wide. There were thick glass paving the ground under his feet at intervals, and he could see the ocean tide tens of meters under the glass. That's right, his current location is close to the seaside. This shopping street is also the first place where port goods flow in after they are distributed.
Over the city, water vapor gathers and disperses from time to time, and occasionally a few drops of rain fall. Yuko randomly picked two robes and was very satisfied. At this moment, it just started raining outside. Pedestrians on the road took shelter from the rain. Yuko followed him and hid in a nearby shop. He also sold ready-made clothes, but he mainly sold wristbands, cloaks, greaves, gloves, and long boots. Boots and the like.
This store is not big, and the boss is personally watching the store. He is sipping black tea, eating snacks and chatting with a regular customer behind the counter. When I saw a foreigner coming in, I knew they were taking shelter from the rain, so I didn't chase them away, didn't greet them warmly, and didn't pay any attention to them.
The regular guest looked at the rain outside the glass door and shook his head repeatedly: "How many times? It has rained intermittently seventeen or eighteen times in the morning. It has never happened so frequently in previous years. This is because of Marshal Wensi. It’s unfair.”
“Hey, don’t say that.” The store owner reminded: “Now Feng Xingjun is searching for Wen Si’s accomplices in the whole city. If they listen to your two words, they will definitely arrest you. Go ask questions.”
The old guest shut up, but was a little dissatisfied, and said firmly: "Is it true that it is raining outside? There is always a reason for the water vapor in the sky to gather so frequently. Now many people outside are saying so, he Feng Xingjun can Arrested everyone?”
The store owner’s eyes indicated that there were foreign customers.
Yuko tried on a pair of boots and felt they were light and fit, so he paid for them. While asking the two of them: "I'm from out of town. It's my first time in Juswan City. Can you tell me what happened here?"
The store owner didn't want to say more, but the people in the store The old customer was a talkative person. When he saw someone chatting with him, and the person had a foreign accent, he started speaking with confidence, and the content he said was similar to what Yuko had known before. In general, it is said that the last time Claude Winsli led an army to fight, the entire army was wiped out. The few surviving sailors accused Wensli of having foreign affairs, so he was sentenced to death.
Yuko was puzzled. He had rescued Wensi before as Bing Zhixie. If he really had access to foreign countries, Wensi would never have been exiled to the island by pirates and almost died due to his status. Sunk to death. Then he asked: "Although I don't know the cause and effect, why does it sound so careless? A naval marshal was killed like this? I have read the announcement. There are many charges. Did he really commit so many felonies?"
"Hmph, shit." The old guest puffed his beard and glared, and said angrily: "Marshal Wensi has offended too many people. The dignitaries and officials in the country hate him to the point of gnashing their teeth. He is not a native of the country and has no foundation. In the past, He has repeatedly won battles and made military exploits. Others dare not say anything. But if he makes such a big mistake this time, those who hate him will definitely pounce on him and bite him. . His reputation is so great that the navy of Soton Kingdom and River Kingdom is the most powerful. The only one in the navy is Marshal Wensi, who only listens to the marshal's orders. Both kings are afraid of him. They go back and forth, and no one speaks for him at all. In one sentence, the charge of treason is settled. "But the annihilation of the entire army is true, right?" Yuko said.
The old guest slammed the table and said angrily: "This is even more impossible. The last time we sent out troops, many of the marshal's men were his confidants, who were willing to sacrifice their lives for the marshal. Are these loyal people going to die? "
Yuko shook his head: "I don't understand this, old sir, how do you know so much?"
"My son is a lieutenant in the Navy and knows some inside information here. Marshal Wensi is too kind to his subordinate soldiers and junior officers. He cuts off some people's financial paths and blocks some people's official paths. Those people They didn't like him and couldn't control him, so they slowly joined forces and formed a force. I suspect that there was a plan to frame Marshal Wensi."
The shop owner quickly stopped: "Hey, don't talk nonsense."
Yuko thought that in this case, why did Wensi come back? He saved Wen Si in the first place, so he could have just walked away. After chatting for a while, the rain outside stopped. The shop owner sighed: "It rained too much. Are you really complaining about Wen Si?"
In the streets and alleys, there were too many people talking about Wen Si's incident. Some people think that it was Wensi's betrayal that caused the navy's defeat. Yuko thought this was a good opportunity to recruit this person to join his team. Zana and the others were pretty good, so they weren't too bad after all.
While he was shopping, he was thinking about it. Suddenly, a long queue of carriages came over the street. The goods carried on them had just been unloaded from the dock. Among them were more than a dozen large black carriages and horses. I don't know what's inside, I can only hear some movement inside, like a living thing. I thought that the convoy was filled with goods for sale, but then I saw many people in shackles. Both sides of the convoy were escorted by cavalry riding cold-blooded lizards. Listening to the pointing passers-by, it turns out that they were all considered to be close relatives and accomplices of Claude Wins, and they were implicated and convicted, including Wins's wife, children and a The grandson, who was less than two years old, was locked in a black box on the carriage in front, and was probably to be executed together.
After the convoy passed by, an alleyway was revealed among the crowds of people. At the end of the alleyway was a monastery-like building. The totem stand and heraldic picture on the building in the style of a female womb showed that it was The courtyard of a Rondo Roncarson church. In the country of Soton River, in addition to the Alliance Holy Church, the Rondo Long Carson Church is the most popular, and it is one of the countries with the largest number of Rondo Long Carson believers. Yuko wondered if he could go there to inquire about the situation. If he only showed the church ring and did not let anyone verify it carefully, the owner of the ring would not be found out.
As he was thinking about it, he walked towards the alleyway. It happened that a lady wearing a nun's uniform was walking beside him in the same direction. He glanced sideways at the slightly plump nun. Her attire was exactly that of the Rondo Roncarson Church. , and the smell of perfume wafting from her body refreshed Yuko's spirits. The smell of perfume actually smelled of the fountain of youth. This smell was suppressed by other aromas. If it had been a long time, he might not be able to smell it. But he had just come out of the Three-headed Dragon Arsenal a few days ago and had bathed in the fountain of youth. How could he smell it? Don’t smell this?
