I was beheaded in the Middle Ages for 20 years

Chapter 9 John’s Plan [Update]

Not long after Enri went out, she came over with a scroll document and placed it in front of Mayfair's desk.

She has been training and studying as a follower in the Raya family for as long as she can remember. She also fought on the front line, and then was injured and retired.

Because he is literate, he was chosen as a personal guard by Fei'er. He is not very smart, but he is more serious, careful and loyal in his work.

Fei'er opened the document in front of her, which recorded Xu Siling's personal information.

There is not much content, and it is even much simpler than others in Raya Town.

"Then Xu Siling was adopted by the original executioner of Raya Town when he was eight years old."

"I have been studying with my adoptive father during the adoption period, so I was exposed to the work of an executioner very early."

Enri simply said a few important words and then stopped talking.

The more Fei'er looked at it, the more she frowned, feeling dissatisfied.

"Old birth, ominous character, unknown beliefs, and unclear interpersonal relationships."

The only important thing recorded in the document is that Xu Siling's adoptive father was attacked and killed by bandits on his way to other towns ten years ago.

Enri was a little uneasy: "I'm sorry, Miss Raya! Because of his identity as the executioner, it's hard to get information about him, and it's even hard for me to have direct contact with him."

Mayfair waved her hand, saying it didn't matter.

Just looking at the column 'unknown faith' made her feel strange.

Because most people will show their yearning and worship for the Holy Religion, it stands to reason that the executioner also has faith in the Holy Religion, which is normal.

But it's not reflected here.

Didn't Xu Siling apply to the church once for so many years, and didn't he want to participate in worship and baptism?
Today she ran out deliberately to relax, knowing that she would be taken back soon.

She just wondered why no one came to look for her after being out for so long, but Enri said she had been looking for her all day.

It seemed that someone deliberately led Enri in the wrong direction, causing her to not find herself. She was not even among the soldiers who came to take her back tonight.

At first, Fei'er realized that she was being followed because she was relatively close to Xu Siling, so she moved closer.

She was not a fool and had always understood that the house on the hillside was where the executioner lived.

The robbers also believe in the Holy Religion. They don't like to come into contact with the executioner. If they are robbers around Raya Town, they will definitely not dare to come closer.

Fei'er dared to get close to Xu Siling because she didn't like the Holy Religion and even had no interest in God.

But these three robbers cannot be the same as me.

Now it not only means that they are not the bandits nearby, but also that they have been deliberately arranged to come here.

Thinking of the crippled robber and the inexplicably deliberate appearance of Abner.

A line gradually became clear in my mind.

Because he was a minor, his uncle John had been taking charge of the management of Raya Town. Although he was a noble, he had no title or territory.

Now there are less than two months until he reaches adulthood, and the management of Raya Town will have to be handed back to him. Will he be willing to hand over everything?

Fei'er didn't think he would, even though he had always behaved without any selfish intentions in front of herself and everyone.

But she is not stupid, and she also understands the filth behind these people.

Johns had ideas about his title and territory, but even if he was killed, he would not have the right to inherit.

So we can only make a fuss about Abner.

Abner and I grew up together. He likes himself and pursues himself.

Maybe his feelings were genuine, but Johns was certainly behind it.

Even the appearance of the robber today was part of John's plan.

Put yourself in danger, and then let Abner save you. This plot of a hero saving a beauty would be exciting to any underage girl, right?
Then when he becomes an adult, when he marries Abner, Abner, as his husband, will naturally have the right to inherit the title and territory.
pity.Mayfair closed the book, her azure eyes extremely cold, even thinking of John's dirty ambition behind her, a hint of chill appeared in her eyes.

She is not a vase, nor is she a doll at the mercy of others.

Unfortunately, Johns has been very strict in controlling her over the years, and there are not many useful people around her.

Even Enri is often manipulated around by John.

But the executioner named Xu Siling is very interesting.

Faile couldn't help but think of the owner of those brown eyes.

Xu Siling dared to make a vague guess about Mr. John's bad behavior in front of him. Even though it was a guess, it was enough to get him arrested and imprisoned.

But he is not afraid.

Feier thought about many possibilities, but in the end she could only think that Xu Siling was caring about her.

If she really cared about herself, she couldn't help but feel a warmth in her heart.

She will investigate Xu Siling carefully these days. If Xu Siling has no relationship with John, she would like to keep this person for herself.

The next day, the weather was nice and the sun was scorching hot.

Xu Siling was on the other side of the hillside, filling a hole with a shovel. There were four corpses piled in the hole.

These corpses were placed outside the house all night last night, which made Xu Siling feel so weird that she had to wash the floor for a long time before she stopped.

After filling the hole, I rinsed it off when I got home, and took a look at the cohosh that had been taken out to dry.

Cimicifuga was spread scattered on the wooden boards set up outside. It looked like it had to be exposed to the sun for two days before it could be used as medicine.

Although the Middle Ages were chaotic, prisoners did not need to be executed every day. Xu Siling actually had a lot of free time every day.

"I'll go to the law enforcement officer later to collect the reward. I don't know how big the reward Fei'er gave me. And I have to urge the old guy to collect the cohosh quickly. Time is running out, and the Black Death is the number one thing we have to face right now."

Xu Siling began to put on his coat, hood and cloak, and then headed to Raya Town.

quite a while.

Xu Siling was walking on the streets of Raya Town, looking at the money bag in her hand with an indifferent expression.

The money bag is not heavy, but there are 10 silver coins in it.

Fei'er gave him a large reward, and when the law enforcement officer gave him the money, he couldn't hide the jealousy on his face.

In fact, Xu Siling herself did not expect that Fei'er would give so much.

Mayfair showed good intentions towards him, and it seemed that becoming a friend of a noble was not a bad thing.

Heading towards the alchemy shop, Xu Siling had already made plans on the way.

Although he believed that his relationship with Mayfair was not deep yet, the other party already regarded him as a friend, at least that was the system's judgment.

Then he would naturally repay Mayfair's kindness.

There must be something wrong with Johns, but even if there is something wrong, he just needs to remind Mayfair to pay attention.

leftover?
Of course, it was to prevent the arrival of the Black Death.

Regardless of John's messy plans and thoughts about Mayfair, once the Black Death comes, who knows how many people will be alive in Raya Town.

Perhaps John was unfortunately infected with the Black Death and was bled to death by doctors.

Anyway, he had to prepare the cohosh and turtle soup recipe in advance, and he also had to prepare a few portions for Fei'er just in case she needed it.

He had to think carefully about whether to inform him of the arrival of the Black Death.

Because he was worried, even if he told Fei'er, he might not care.

Will his 'neurotic prophecy' make Mayfair resist him?
