The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 196 The Timarand Family

William pulled out the broken dreams in an instant. Yasuna and Finiya also put down the dishes and stood up with their weapons. Only the two little guys were still holding the soup bowls, but moved their buttocks slightly behind William. They are not worried that William will not be able to protect their own safety.

At last the visitors appeared, not two, but three, a grown human man and a half-elf girl holding another, younger half-elf child.The man walked in front with a unique war sword in his hand, and the two half-elves dragged behind him somewhat uneasy. The clothes of all three were a little thin, and they looked trembling as if they were facing an enemy.The night of Faerun can be said to be the most dangerous time. It is really not a good choice to approach strangers rashly in the dark night. Who knows if it is a bait set by evil aliens.No one will accept strange visitors casually, because you can't be sure whether the other party is a bad guest.

Under the light of the fire, both sides could almost see the people on the other side clearly. William frowned involuntarily as he watched the three incongruous visitors. A child (although on the surface it seems that William's age is not much better than that half-elf girl), it is really suspicious.

The visitor was obviously aware of the guard here, and the old man withdrew the sword in his hand to show that he was not malicious, and said in a hoarse voice apologetically: "This is Tima Paladins of the Rand family, sorry to bother you at this time, but my boys need some hot soup, and even though it's not winter, this damn weather still makes the bread hard as a rock. We won't ask for much, "

William glanced at the two children behind the man. The girl was much more stable, with a little shyness on her tight little face, while the youngest half-elf showed her desire unabashedly on her childish face. The little nose that sniffed a few times fully demonstrated that the strong aroma of stewed meat is indeed more attractive than dry and hard black bread.

Looking at the three unexpected visitors, William ordered softly, "Yasuna, go and get three more sets of dishes."

Yasuna looked at the two children behind the man, frowned and said, "William, this."

William smiled and said: "Go! I know what I'm doing. Phinya, make room, don't get stuck there, come to this side. Three, please sit down. Although it's a little rough, it should be fine. Drive away the chill." Feniya put away the Thunder Frost, took a step back to get out of the way, and squatted carelessly next to William, picked up her soup bowl and continued to "drink".

Although the figure of the half-giant shocked the three visitors, her actions dispelled their fear.With a grateful smile on his face, the old paladin quickly put away the long sword in his hand, took off a piece of rag from his shoulder and spread it on the ground, let the two children sit around the fire, while he sat casually on the muddy ground , A pair of rough hands with some dirt leaned close to the flames and warmed them.

The soup and rice in the iron pot are still steaming out. The youngest child stares at the soup pot and swallows his saliva. Although the girl tries her best not to look at the soup pot, she can't hide her longing eyes. .The paladin just glanced at the soup pot and stopped paying attention. If William hadn't noticed his Adam's Apple moving unnaturally, he would have thought that he had no interest in the "deliciousness" in the pot.

This seemingly self-controlled warrior took out a cloth bag from his arms, but when he opened the cloth bag, there were two pieces of dry, hard bread. The old warrior put the bread on the beam of the bonfire rack, and let the heat of the flame bake the bread soft.The girl noticed the action of the old warrior, she lowered her head and took out a piece of hard bread and baked it on the fire. The youngest child kept staring at the soup pot and didn't notice the actions of the other two. It wasn't until my sister pushed it lightly that I reluctantly took out a small piece of black bread from my pocket, and followed my sister's example and put it on the firewood pile.

The old paladin looked at the two children sadly, and said: "Thank you very much for accepting our family. Yesterday, a group of goblin robbers made us almost lose all our luggage. What's worse, the people in this area are almost It's getting apathetic, and it's not such a good idea to sleep in the wilderness. Ugh! What a bad night."

At this time, Yasuna, who walked into the tent to pick up the dishes, just came back. William took a metal bowl with a wooden base (metal is easy to conduct heat, and adding a wooden base can prevent hot hands), stood up and laughed: "Goblin They are indeed the most annoying bedbugs on the wasteland. They always make trouble for us, and we can't stop them. But don't worry, I don't think they will bother us again tonight. Come, try my marinade How does the broth taste?" William lifted the lid of the pot, and the steam was rising, and the aroma was overflowing, making the three of them gulp.

William filled a bowl full of stewed meat and potatoes, poured half a spoonful of soup on it, took a fork and handed it to the old warrior.The old warrior hurriedly got up to take it, and said a little embarrassedly: "Here, we just need some hot soup."

"It doesn't matter, there is enough food in the pot for us to eat until tomorrow. Since we can meet here, it may be a kind of fate. Are these two your children?" William smiled and poured it into another bowl Food, he said.

"Yes! The greatest blessing in my life is to marry a beautiful elf as my wife, and raise a sensible daughter and a lovely son." The old warrior took the bowl and did not eat it, but handed it to the youngest Child, the little guy first glanced at his sister, the girl nodded to him, and then took the metal bowl with a cheer, holding the potato cubes in both hands that wanted to take a bite, but was scorched, the little look is really funny and cute .

The two little girls who were peeking behind William were immediately amused by this little guy's behavior, Misha stepped forward and handed her silver fork, and said with a smile: "Hee hee , here you are, bite and eat." Xiaomi Luna also came to join in the fun.

After eating a bowl of hot soup, the old warrior who was originally full of travel and dust immediately became more energetic, and his speech became more casual: "Young man, why did you choose this place to camp? This is not a good place, wild animals often come and go Ah."

William said with a smile: "It's our first time going out, so we don't have much experience. Mr. seems to be an adventurer who often walks in the wild. He should have a lot of valuable experience."

The old warrior smiled and said, "You really asked the right person. I dare say that there is no more experienced adventurer than Old Delbe in this world. When choosing a campsite, the first thing to look at is the terrain. Due to the wind, the ground is dry, and the vegetation is sparse, it is best to have a water source nearby.” The paladin talked to William about many precautions for camping, especially some of his unique experience, such as hunting, avoiding danger, setting up The traps and so on are explained clearly to William in detail.

The senses that the old warrior brought to William are very good. It can be seen that this is a very warm-hearted old guy. Although the current situation is a bit embarrassing, he has a rare simplicity and kindness.Of course, what really moved William was his willingness to condescend to ask for help for his two children. No one does not love their children, especially in northern cities, where a child belonging to William may have already been born.
