The corpse of the invincible hero

.Chapter 310 The Eighth Hidden Plot

The defense battle of the two villages finally came to an end, and it ended with the best result of both sides winning at the same time. However, although the result was good, everyone who participated in the defense battle of Gruhal Village was not happy~

Facing the dead bodies of their companions all over the place, the dwarves lost the joy they used to have when they drank ale; seeing George, the old village chief who had not recovered from serious injuries, the dwarves were not in the mood to cheer; Griffin, who has fallen to the ground but doesn't know it, the dwarves don't have the ability to come forward to comfort and persuade...

Yes, they won, but it was not what the dwarves wanted.

The heroic warrior died, the great and kind village chief was seriously injured and dying, but the young guard captain who has fought with everyone so far is about to face the most severe punishment.

No one can tell whether they won or lost somewhere else~ All the dwarves only know that after this battle, the strength of Gruhar Village has been lost by nearly half, and if you count it before, you will die in battle. If the two small groups of giant crocodile cavalry were to be killed, the losses would be unimaginable.

However, among all of them, the old village head George faced the greatest blow. Although he led his people to a difficult victory, in order to give an account to his allies, he had to be severely punished after the victory. The way his own son is, is almost a death sentence...

For an old dwarf who is about to enter his old age, what is more difficult and painful than executing his only son with his own hands?

If it were someone else, I'm afraid no one would have such courage. However, every dwarf resident in the village understands that if that person is Old George, then the result is self-evident...

"Uncle George, I...I'm sorry~" Liu Yifei walked up to Old George with the little assassin and Milan Knoss, and said in a low voice.

"Oh? For what?" Old George raised his head slightly, showed a somewhat strenuous smile at Liu Yifei, waved at him, and said slowly.

Seeing the old George's gesture, Liu Yifei knew that the other party didn't really blame him for anything, so he sat down complacently, and being able to be with the old dwarf as usual would save the old dwarf the trouble of looking up at him.

"For everything, everything ~ what has happened, what is happening, and what is about to happen."

Looking around, Liu Yifei said in a somewhat apologetic voice.

Everywhere there are dwarven residents who opened their homes and went to the battlefield to find their relatives. Some lost their children, some lost their husbands, some lost their fathers...

The pain of farewell spread on the battlefield after the war, and the cries of women or children spread out. Just listening to it makes people feel sad. If there are uneven corpses, perhaps you will understand why their cries are so helpless and mournful.

Following Liu Yifei's gaze, Old George also slowly scanned the surrounding situation. It could be seen that the sadness and reluctance in his eyes became more serious every time he looked at it, but he was so sad that he was going to die. The old dwarf still insisted on reading everything, then closed his eyes for a while, and then opened them again.

However, in the old dwarf's reopened eyes, Liu Yifei didn't find any trace of pain or sadness, there was only determination, there was only responsibility

The determination to lead the villagers to a better life; the responsibility to prevent today's tragedy from happening again

"Young man~ You don't have to comfort me~ Although I am old, my eyesight is still not clear.

Everything you have done today is far more and better than me as the village head.

In fact, except that my own strength is far superior to yours, I can't find any place where I am better than you.You are so young, you can have such a foundation, I believe that in the near future, it is only a matter of time before you surpass me

Today, it seems to me that you did your best to defend our village of Gruhal.If it weren't for you, we probably wouldn't be able to survive at all. The vicious undead had already broken through the defense early in the morning, and at this time, there should be only ruins left in the village~

You have proved your friendliness and loyalty with your actual actions, Gruhal Village will always remember you, and you will always be the most welcome friend and staunchest ally of our village."

In terms of the actual administration of the village, Old George, the head of the village, obviously has more rights than the Great Elder Mokmola. Zhang and Liu Yifei concluded an alliance agreement.

As soon as old George finished speaking, Liu Yifei received a system prompt, saying that George was willing to conclude an alliance agreement between Gruhar Village and Plague City, and asked Liu Yifei if he agreed.

Isn't this in line with Liu Yifei's next plan?How can there be any reason to disagree~

And just after Liu Yifei chose to agree to conclude the alliance agreement, the system then prompted that Liu Yifei's prestige level in Gluhar Village had been raised to "respect", and his personal friendship with the village head George had been raised to "friend".

"Your recognition makes me feel very flattered." Liu Yifei, who was secretly happy in his heart, did not forget to express his gratitude, and quickly replied with a wizard etiquette, "Unfortunately, too many innocent people still died in this battle. They They are all brave warriors, they didn't die on the battlefield but died in the violence of the monsters at home... It has to be said that it's a pity~"

"You are wrong, my young friend... The reason why our line of dwarves chose to leave the camp of the elves is precisely because we have long been tired of the boring life of charging on the battlefield.

Compared to endless killing, we would rather rediscover the true meaning of peace in a harsh natural environment. After all, we dwarves are originally from the earth. As long as we don't leave the earth, we can live well wherever we go.

You don't need to feel sad or sorry for the brave souls who have passed away. In fact, for them, it is a great happiness to die heroically in the battle to defend their families and everyone's homeland.

After all, their bravery can ensure that more people live better. Maybe their family members will have temporary sadness, but this sadness will eventually be diluted by the joy of life. When time heals all trauma, People will only remember their brave and strong offspring, and they will grow up healthily in their memory~

For every brave warrior who guards his homeland, is there any dissatisfaction in getting such a reward? "

Listening to the words of the old dwarf, Liu Yifei seemed to have returned to the battlefield half an hour ago at this moment, and he saw again those elite dwarf warriors or ordinary dwarves who were brave and fearless, attacking and pounced on the terrifying death again and again warrior.

Indeed, Liu Yifei remembered that there was no anger or fear on their faces, but only determination and courage to move forward

It turns out that the belief of this village has already penetrated into everyone's heart. Not only the old village chief has a strong idea of ​​surrounding the village, but even every soldier values ​​the peace of the village more than his own life.

They don't have any fear or doubt about being able to die in this familiar homeland. This may be the belief called guarding the homeland...

The two of them were sighing with emotion, but Balder suddenly ran over from the side panting, destroying the atmosphere created by the two of them.

"Joe... Village Chief George is not good, not good, something serious happened~" Baldr couldn't breathe, he kept saying.

"What happened again?" Old George asked lightly.

"Eh... this..." While hesitating, Baldr glanced at Liu Yifei, as if to say "I can't tell because there are outsiders present".

"Then since that's the case, I have something to do in the village below me, so let's go first~"

Liu Yifei is not an idiot either, seeing Balder's expression, he immediately understood, so he stood up resolutely, patted the dust off his body and said.

"Wait." Just before Liu Yifei raised his legs to leave, Old George, who had been half lying on the ground, suddenly said solemnly, "Bald, we are old acquaintances, and I'm not afraid to tell you that I just signed a contract with you." The territory under Lord Cloud's name - the alliance agreement of Plague City.

From now on, Lord Flowing Cloud is the most steadfast and loyal ally of our Gluhar Village. I will pass on the news later, so if there is anything to do, don't avoid him, just speak directly. "

"Uh...the village chief, it's not that...it's not about the village, it's about...about your son, Griffin Guard Captain." Baldr said nervously.

"Oh? About that idiot? Then there's no need to avoid Little Liuyun. Tell me, what happened again? Could it be that that idiot ran into the mine?" Old George didn't care at all. Said.

"Yes... yes... in fact, we just found out that Griffin was missing because of Captain Griffin he... he... he was gone," Baldr finally said.

"It's gone? What does it mean that it's gone? How can a living person just say that it's gone? Hurry up and send someone out to look for it again. Maybe he ran outside for a while?" Old George could already see it. In a hurry.

"The report has searched everywhere. They just found out that Griffin had disappeared because of the captain of the guard, so they sent people to search around. They made sure that nothing was found in the surrounding area." Balder also said with some distress. .

"Hey, this unrepentant boy, after all, he still made the worst decision. Could it be... Could it be... Is it really that I can't discipline well? Or did I make the wrong decision at the beginning, and I shouldn't have stayed? He learned knowledge in the big tribe, but he has such a stinky problem..." As if remembering something extremely annoying, the old dwarf couldn't help but beat his chest and stomped his feet even though he was injured all over his body. .

"Hey... Uncle George, I'm so sorry~ I don't have much to say, I just know that what makes us 'us' is not what we have experienced, what we have learned, what we have known, Only then have we become ourselves, what really matters should be the choices we have made

In the same encounter, different people will make completely different choices. The first step may be good, and the next step may be evil;

And these many different choices are made by ourselves, but in the end they also constitute the truest self. These choices are the true portrayal of each of us~

It is true that Griffin is your son, but since he has made such a choice, he must firmly believe in the correctness of his actions, otherwise, he would not have done so.

Since there are problems in his consciousness first, it is useless for us to think more. First of all, he does not feel that there is something wrong with him or that he needs to improve. What is the use of us talking more?

Maybe this reality hits you hard, but... you must hold on. You must always remember that behind you, there are countless villagers who need your leadership to lead them to a better future. But to you, they are not like your children in another sense?

Overcome this difficulty, and then lead your people to move on

I will come back when you are back together. At that time, we can have a good discussion on the issue of cooperation and common progress between the two parties.Right now, my village still has a lot of things to deal with, so I will leave first. "

Hearing that Liu Yifei and the others were going to leave, the village chief George had somewhat recovered from the pain of losing his son, and hurriedly asked Balder to send Liu Yifei off on his behalf. In fact, even if Old George didn't order so, Balder himself planned to did so.

"Lord Liuyun, this time, I have to thank you anyway. If it weren't for you, our village would have been wiped out by the vicious undead in the morning." Walking out of the village entrance, Balder looked back and gradually regained his vitality. , the villagers who were in a chaotic and busy state spoke to Liu Yifei who was walking beside him.

"There is no need to say thank you. Uncle George has confirmed our alliance relationship with each other. Since we are an alliance, it is a matter of bitterness and shame. Your business is mine. No matter what, I will do this help.

Besides, my newly established village is just below your village. Once you have a major safety accident here, it will have a considerable impact on the village below us, so helping you is also helping myself. No thanks anyway. "

"No~ You don't know how many children in the village you saved in this guard battle. For each of them, I should say thank you to you. With them, the village has a future, and you protect If you let them go, it means that you have not only protected the present of the village, but also the future of the village~" Balder said sincerely.

"It's a pity that not everyone thinks like you. If Griffin is even a little more sensible..." Liu Yifei also said with some regret. After all, he is the son of Old George. They didn't want this unusual old dwarf to suffer any more.

"This is something that can't be helped, after all, it's all due to the fate of our village.

Griffin has always had such a temper. Although everyone didn't say anything on the surface, they all secretly bet on how long he would last...

In short, you don't have to blame yourself. Griffin's choice to leave has nothing to do with you, and you don't have to take it to heart. "Balder probably thought that Liu Yifei was apologizing to Griffin, and said indifferently.

"I don't blame myself for Griffin's departure. In fact, you should thank Uncle George for his vigilance and rescued Griffin in time. Otherwise, with my anger at the time, I'm afraid Let people go up and directly take Griffin down and execute Falun Gong on the spot

His leaving was just a sign of cowardice and cowardice, so why should I feel bad about it?In fact, even if there is no reason for me this time, Griffin's outbreak is only a matter of time.

Didn't Captain Balder notice that Griffin and your Village Chief George have huge differences in some important understandings of consciousness? "Liu Yifei glanced sideways at Baldr, and then he didn't intend to listen to Baldr's explanation, and walked down the mountain with his people in big strides.

"Hey~Young people are good young people, but it's a pity that they are too aggressive. If they can be more mellow and tactful... Hehe, are they still young? Very good, very good, just keep it like this, Let everyone see what opportunities this little lord can bring to the development of the village..."

Balder, who stood at the gate of the village and watched Liu Yifei and others leave, murmured involuntarily.

Naturally, Liu Yifei went down the mountain smoothly, looking for Xi Huangquan and the other four people to inquire about the specific news about the end of the siege battle. At the same time, he also wanted to inquire about some detailed details of the siege battle process in order to accumulate experience and deal with the possible challenges in the future. other similar situations.

Let's go back and look at the situation in Gruhal's village.

After repelling the army of undead led by the god of death, ordinary villagers without combat professions came to the battlefield to help clean up the battlefield after the war, or to pack up the supplies and weapons left by the enemy after death, or to organize the belongings of their own people. corpse.

After sending Liu Yifei and others away, Uncle George's mood was obviously very unstable, but at this moment, the elder Mokmola quietly moved behind Village Chief George, and whispered to him.

"Griffin finally left because of that child..." the Great Elder sighed.

"Many of his ideas are not in line with ours. Even without this incident, he would leave sooner or later. I just didn't expect that he didn't even have the courage to bear the final consequences." George said in a daze.

"What you said before was too deadly, if according to what you said, Griffin must first face the punishment of mutilation, and then you throw him into the lava.

What's the difference between that and death?Perhaps the biggest difference is that it's far worse than dying because his father silently watched it all and even participated in it throughout the execution.

For a young man who has not experienced the cruel test of war, this kind of threat is too heavy. If he doesn't run away, I'm afraid he will be scared stupid. "The Great Elder said lightly.

"But he's my son, so why doesn't he believe me that much? Will I really kill him? And doesn't he have a brain? I said that rebellion is needed...

Forget it, everything is over, what's the point of talking about it now?The Great Elder didn't come to me just to talk about these things, did he? "Old George asked slowly.

"Those things that are sealed at the bottom are almost unable to hold on. Once the seal fails, those guys will return to the ground world again. If that time comes... have you realized it? ?” The Great Elder suddenly asked inexplicably.

"Is there something you don't realize? Ever since I accepted the hereditary oath to protect something here, I have never left this place.

But what I didn't expect was that what was supposed to come came so soon..."

"Did you hear his voice before? I didn't expect that after so many years, their obsessions have not dispersed at all, but they have gathered together and become stronger and stronger. Now, even my strength can hardly be suppressed." They are gone." When he said these words, Old George didn't feel old-fashioned at all, but he seemed to be an elderly scholar, quietly discussing something with his students.

"Otherwise, do you think, at such an important moment, how could I find an ally for the village for no reason?

Although that young guy is still a little immature, but among their peers, he is already very commendable. said old George.

"If you want to talk about talent, don't deny it, he is indeed younger than us, think about how old he is now, he already has such strength, and wants to catch up with us. If it is an artist, it may really be completely covered."

However, when the two gathered together and talked about something quietly, another gust of wind suddenly blew from the direction of the mine entrance, making the people who were blown feel cold all over, and the discomfort did not wait for Old George and The Great Elder came back to his senses, the inexplicable voice that appeared with the wild laughter before suddenly appeared again, and this time, it was obviously not as easy as just saying hello...
