Chapter 218 217. Knight's Sword
The vertical and horizontal ravines, the ground is full of gravel and gravel, and the weathered rocks are continuously stripped from the main body. This is a barren land.
The mountain in the distance is also black and gray, with some dry trees lying between the cracks in the rocks, and the wind blowing here is dry and hot.
A lizard quickly hid in the crevice of the rock. Surdak galloped across the rock on his horse, and the horse's hoof crushed a piece of crisp limestone.
The two young men from Wall Village could only run behind Suldak, and they ran very fast along the way.
It is not too far from Wall Village to the North Slope Grassland, and there is no need to detour. When Suldak rushed to this grassland, he found that the whole grassland was completely hidden in the mountain. The gully that came out was almost two kilometers in depth and less than 30 meters in width. In such a deep ditch, the two steep side walls were covered with lush weeds, and some gazelles shuttled through the grass inside.
And in the middle of this gully, there is also a long and narrow pool. It is hard to see how deep it is, but at the moment it is sparkling and full of vitality. In the middle of the gully, a dead wood fence divided the gully into two sections. A blue-tailed bird of caller landed on the wooden fence, combing its feathers gracefully.
On the rocky **** above this gully, two groups of people stood clearly.
Among the crowd with the larger number of people, a knight and two knight entourages were riding on horses, and they were looking towards the direction where Suldak was coming.
Suldak ran to the Beigou Grassland in one breath, and saw the old village chief leading a dozen young people in the village standing on the edge of the stone **** beside the Beigou. Everyone saw Suldak coming over on horseback, The villagers of Woer Village surrounded them one after another, as if they had found the backbone, and they no longer looked cowering in the face of the large number of Guta villagers.
Suldak said hello to the old village chief.
The knight in the opposite crowd pulled the reins of the horse and drove the horse out.
He spat with disdain for Suldak, pointed at Suldak, and said loudly: "You are Suldak? I am the Chadupodo Knight. I challenge you today, and the loser We will give up this pasture on the north slope!"
The middle-aged knight in full armor held the helmet in one hand, and held the saber at his waist with the other hand, and he spoke in a confident manner.
Suldak was almost laughed at by this impolite knight, but he didn't expect that the chadopudo knight had such a firecracker temper that he exploded at once.
Seeing Chadopodo's look of needing to be beaten, Suldak immediately said loudly to him: "This place originally belonged to our Wall Village. You stood on our ranch and challenged me. I lost If you want me to give up this pasture, but I won? Is it just to get back what belongs to me? And you have nothing to lose... As you said, can I go to your manor to ask you Initiate a challenge, and the loser will give up your manor?"
The villagers in Wall Village were not timid when they heard Suldak's voice, and they all laughed along with him, but they didn't dare to go too far, after all, the opposite side was a knight.
The chadopudo knight was furious, pulled out his knight's sword, pointed at Surdak and said loudly: "Northern Slope Grassland has always been divided equally between Wall Village and Guta Village, and my bet is Guta Village's." That half of the pasture."
"So you can represent Guta Village?" Suldak chuckled, then turned to ask Chadopudo Knight seriously.
"Of course." Chadopudo Knight said proudly.
The village head of Guta Village who was standing aside was about to cry. He originally wanted to invite a knight to come forward to clarify the dividing line between the North Slope Grassland with Wall Village, so that his village would not lose its momentum. He didn't want to monopolize the North Slope pasture at all, not to mention that now that there is a knight in Wall Village, even if Chadopo won the duel, what if Guta Village really occupied the entire pasture?
After the chadopudo knight leaves, Wall Village will find any reason to trouble Guta Village. Guta Village can always come up with a big gift at any time, and always invite foreign knights to settle the trouble?
In the final analysis, no matter who these aristocrats are, Guta Village can't afford to mess with them.
The village head of Guta Village held the reins of the Chadopodo horse tightly with both hands, and with earnest pleas in his eyes, he begged the Chadopudo knight: "No, Mr. Chadopouto knight, you cannot represent Guta Village made this decision, we only want to reconcile with Wall Village, we are willing to share this grassland with Wall Village, we just want to redefine the boundaries of the grassland under your witness..."
At this time, the chadopodo knight had already put on the steel helmet, and he just put down his visor. Seeing the cautious and cowardly look of the village head of Guta Village, he whipped him **** the head , scolded angrily: "My letter of war has already been sent out, what's the use of saying these frustrating words now? Wouldn't it be a better choice for your village to have this grassland exclusively? A group of ignorant idiots..."
The head of Guta Village was hit with a horsewhip on the face, leaving a bloodstain immediately, and was forced to back away again and again.
The chadopodo knight put down the visor on his head, rode his horse to keep a distance from Suldak, pulled out the shining silver sword of the knight, and pointed it at Suldak.
The villagers in Wall Village looked at Suldak worriedly. They found that Suldak was only wearing leather armor, not even the most basic leather helmet. The village chief of Wall Village hurried forward, Pulling the reins of the horse, he persuaded Suldak: "Little Dak, if we can't beat, we must admit defeat decisively, half of the Beigou pasture is nothing, don't get hurt, as long as people are fine. "
Suldak smiled slightly, pulled out the Roman sword from his waist, and said to the old village chief with a smile: "Don't worry, I have seen life and death countless times on the battlefield, nothing will happen this time." , you have to have some confidence in me!"
Then he kicked the stirrup, and Gu Bolaima rushed forward immediately, standing in line with Chadopodo, and Surdak raised his Roman sword to salute the Chadopudo knight.
The two knights rode forward at the same time. Suldak's face was tense, and his eyes were fixed on the sword tip of the chadopodo knight. There were countless nodes in his body like stars, and twenty nodes were slowly being tapped. Liang, these nodes contained traces of sacred aura, gathered in Suldak's body to form a beam of golden light, which passed through Suldak's arm to the tip of the sword, and the tip of the sword exuded a faint golden light.
At the same time, behind Suldak a phantom of a two-faced four-armed demon **** emerged, and Suldak released his own 'momentum', which immediately doubled the strength of his body.
Suldak only felt that the chadopodo knight rushing over from the opposite side saw him release the 'power', and his eyes in the mask suddenly shrank, and then a chadopodo knight with both hands holding a sword appeared behind him. A phantom of the kneeling swordsman appeared, and the speed at which he dismounted from the horse suddenly increased sharply. After the horse ran past, there was even an afterimage.
The morale of the two sides erupted when they charged on horseback, which made the villagers of the two villages watching the battle dumbfounded.
The contempt in Chadopodo's eyes had long since disappeared. He raised the knight's sword high above his head, and at the moment when the two horses crossed each other, he slashed at Suldak with a thunderbolt. Suldak Seeing the long sword of the Chadopodo knight slashing down for a moment, the blade unexpectedly transformed into five phantoms.
If Suldak has attended a knight academy, he would know that this is the knight combat skill in the academy: "White Heat", but unfortunately he has never attended a knight academy, has never learned knight combat skills, and does not know the five swords The blade's method of smashing was just blocking it by raising the shield based on the instinct of the body.
The Chadopodo knight only felt that the five swords hit a blue shield almost at the same time, and the shield made a sound like popping beans. Picking up the knight's light shield in his hand, he went up to him, and hid the knight's sword behind the shield. He only waited for Suldak's sword to strike the shield, and then he stabbed out the long sword hidden behind the shield, killing him. He was caught off guard.
The phantom of the swordsman behind the Chadopodo knight has increased his speed a lot, making his movements nearly twice as fast as usual. With this attack speed, the Chadopodo knight feels that Suldak must not be able to stop him. Own this sudden sword.
The empty door in front of Knight Chhadopodo opened wide, and he was terrified, worried that if Suldak was stabbed with a sword, the full-cover armor on his body might not be able to block the sword.
But he didn't expect that when the Roman sword was about to touch his chest, his eyes blurred, the thick tip of the Roman sword suddenly disappeared, and a bronze hilt appeared in front of him, and the "dong" hit on Chado On the chest of the Pudo knight, this "heavy blow" directly hammered the Chadopudo knight off his horse.
The knight's light shield and knight's sword that had been split in two were scattered on the ground, and the chadopodo knight fell on the ground full of gravel, his chest was so heavy that he almost vomited blood, and his war horse stopped beside him, He kept kicking the gravel on the ground with his horse's hooves, and kept arching the chadopudo knight with his horse's mouth.
The villagers on both sides only saw that the two knights fought each other and slashed each other with swords.
The whole process didn't even take more than three minutes...
Then Knight Suldak rode his horse back to the villagers of Wall Village without looking back, and the two knight followers among the villagers of Guta Village rushed up and helped Knight Chadopuduo up from the ground , I was relieved to find that the chadopodo knight's face was livid, but he didn't seem to have suffered much injury.
After Suldak won, no one in Guta Village dared to negotiate with the old village chief of Wall Village.
By the time the young people in Woer Village surrounded Suldak and walked into the village, the villagers in Guta Village had already begun to take the initiative to tear down the boundary wall of the Beigou Grassland, and sent all the gazelles belonging to Guta Village to the village. rush...
…
It was almost noon when everyone returned to Wall Village.
The old village head refused to let Suldak go to Hailansa city no matter what, saying that he would wait until tomorrow morning. If he left at this time, he would arrive at Hailansa city tomorrow, and he would spend the night in the mountains. There have been no monsters in this area for many years, but staying overnight in the mountains is definitely not a comfortable experience.
Then the village head ordered the villagers to catch the fattest gazelle, and called the whole village to drink sheep soup at night.
Since there is not much meat from the roasted lamb, each person in the village can only eat one or two bites. It is far better to cook a large pot of lamb soup. Every villager can scoop up a large spoonful of warm milky white soup. , add a piece of mutton bone and soft boiled mutton offal to the soup bowl, with green green onion, drink it in one breath, a thin layer of sweat will secrete from the forehead, if you can still eat a piece of roasted oatmeal Cake, for the villagers of Wall Village, that is the best taste.
As for the luxury delicacies such as barbecue, for the villagers of Wall Village, that is something that noble gentlemen can eat.
Only after the Harvest Festival, coming-of-age ceremony, the first snow in winter and the first rain in summer in Wall Village, all the villagers will be called to hold such a collective celebration ceremony. Today is also because Wall Village has finally taken back Beigou The ownership of the grassland, the old village head will hold such a dinner with the whole village.
The villagers who were full would naturally perform a harvest dance around the bonfire. Surdak was surrounded by a group of young people in the village. The passionate young people asked Surdak for advice on fighting skills.
In fact, where does Suldak know any combat skills? Those things he knows are all honed on the battlefield. The skills on how to protect oneself and **** people are difficult to learn without personal experience on the battlefield. I will.
A group of old people sat on the periphery, watching the young people making noise around the bonfire, infected by the joy on the field.
The old village chief said sincerely to Sheila: "Sheila, I would like to thank you this time for allowing little Duck to stand up for the villagers."
"..."
Old Sheila was sitting on the bluestone strip, and Natasha was sitting beside her. They didn't know what to say to the village chief's gratitude, and they couldn't even accept it. Rita took little Peter and a group of people not far away. Little children play.
"In the future, if this kind of battle can be avoided, we should try to avoid it!" The old village chief said with emotion.
Old Sheila looked through the crowd and saw Surdak surrounded by young people in the village. Her lips moved slightly, but she couldn't say anything. She just thought in her heart that this was beyond her control.
Seeing that Sheila didn't speak, the old village chief thought that she had no knowledge, and worried that her heart would swell after her son became a knight. Seeing that Suldak kept taking risks with his own life, he didn't try to dissuade him. It's no use regretting.
Regardless of whether the old Sheila was willing to listen or not, he hit the old Sheila with a slap in the face, trying to wake her up. He said to the old Sheila: "Have you ever thought about it, if your son Suldak died in a duel?" What will that be like?"
"..."
Old Sheila couldn't help thinking at this moment: I don't know who sent someone to invite 'him' to risk his life in the morning. These powerful people turned their faces like dogs.
Before the old Sheila finished slandering, the old village chief said:
"If Little Duck dies, the noble lord of Hailansa City will deprive him of his knight status. According to the imperial decree, Natasha must remarry within three years, and Rita is about to marry, and you... You have to work hard to live on, and you don’t even dare to get sick or die, because you want to raise Peter.”
"That's the worst kind of life."
The old village chief sighed, then softened his tone and said: "Now, Suldak has become a knight. This is the glory of your family and the glory of the whole village."
After he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Suldak in the crowd, without noticing the horrified look on the old Sheila's face.
Old Sheila turned her head in a panic and looked at Natasha beside her.
Natasha also turned pale, and asked the old Sheila in a low voice: "They will take me away, so that I will never see little Peter again, right? Sheila."
"…I have no idea."
When old Sheila said this, she felt that she had no strength in her body.
At this time, she thought of those poor children in the village who were abandoned by their mothers after their fathers died, and couldn't help shaking...
