On the Seven Towers

"She helped me escape." Avalo's eyes turned red at this point.

Wu Qi patted his hand and said, "Don't worry. Tell us clearly what's going on. Maybe we can help you find a solution together."

Avalo lowered his head and was silent for a while, seeming to be recalling the whole process. A painful look appeared on his face: "The stewards and the black-haired devil all live in several larger buildings on the hillside near the village. In the house. The stewards would often choose some good-looking women from the new slaves to serve them in that house, and then send them back to work in the workshop when they felt they were boring. But the women they chose were given to the black-haired devil. Those who dare not move will keep them living in that house.”

That house had a terrace on the upper floor. Once when I was leaving work, I saw a woman hanging clothes to dry. I recognized her from a distance, it was Ava. But she didn't see me. Later I saw her again and confirmed that she was in that house. The people in that camp didn't take slaves who worked hard very seriously. After groping for several days, I finally found a path that allowed me to climb up the hillside without anyone noticing. I climbed up secretly at dusk one day, and saw Ava standing on the terrace outside the fence.

She was wearing nice clothes that I couldn't imagine before, and she was neatly dressed. I had never seen her look so beautiful. She was very happy to see me at first. She told me that after she was kidnapped by the two riders that day, she was brought here. The steward let her live in this room and trained her in various rules every day. Later she found out , he was a gift given to the black-haired devil by those in charge.

A few days later, she met the black-haired demon and he became her master. I asked her how he treated her afterwards, but she refused to say more to me.

Later I told her that I would find a way to take her out. But she didn't believe we could escape. She said that her current master was kind to her, and he also gave her some rewards. She wanted to use some jewelry to bribe the guards and let them let me live. I left that day happy and angry at the same time. Because he was delayed for too long, he was almost discovered by the guards.

I didn't want to give up, so I went several times in the following days. Then one time I went, I saw the black-haired devil holding her. He was much taller than her. The way he held her in his arms was like holding her in his arms. with a rag doll. That day, they were watching the sun set. He didn't know what he said, and she actually laughed. However, later she saw me and secretly cried again.

I cried that day too, but there was really nothing I could do. I am neither a warrior nor a magician. I can only hide in that corner and shed tears, unable to do anything.

In the next few days, I was unwilling to listen to her and was still looking for a way to escape. But one day a guard really came and pulled me out of the workshop alone and took me outside the village. He also told me that Ava has been favored by the black-haired devil these past two days and is ready to follow that guy. Because of our past friendship, she asked the guard to take me out and told me to leave quickly. The guard said that if I didn't leave, he would have to kill me to prevent me from leaking the news.

I wanted to rush back, but the man kicked me down and put a sword on my neck to warn me. He said that if I go back, I will be looking for death for myself and for Ava. I... I have no choice but to leave. "

Avalo has never studied and has no literary talent in speaking. He described these thrilling things like anecdotes, but the other three people in the tent could hear the pain and helplessness of the little person in his simple words. This feeling of not being able to protect the person he loves is very heart-wrenching.

"Damn it. It's so terrible to hear such nonsense!" Ji Yijun said bitterly.

"Company commander. What should we do about this matter?" Wu Qi couldn't help but hold the tearful Avalo in her arms. The young man was hugged by her and could no longer bear his grievance and pain, and burst into tears.

"What else can we do? We have to find this place and kill them all. Free all the slaves. I want to see who in the school is doing such an evil thing." Ji Yijun said angrily.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Huang Zheng shouted in a low voice. He said to Avalo, who was still crying: "Man, don't cry like this. Do you know that you want to leave your tears to the enemy? Tell me, how did you do it later? He fell into a coma on the roadside."

Avalo actually listened to Huang Zheng's words. He left Wu Qi's arms, wiped his tears with his sleeves, sniffled and said: "I, I don't know where I am going. I have the mark of a slave on my body and was discovered by the lords. I would be hanged. So I had to go to Montenegro again. But I didn't expect that those people were very strict about the road. There were often patrols on the road leading to the outside. I escaped two inspections. A group of cavalry, but when drinking water by the river, they accidentally saw him.

Those people will come after me immediately. I escaped into the woods and never dared to take the main road. When I finally climbed over the hillside, I rolled down because I was too tired. I probably met you later. "

"Then do you remember the way back to that town?" Huang Zheng asked again.

Avalo nodded and said: "Although I can't read or count, I have a good memory. If you want to go, I can take you there!"

Huang Zheng said seriously: "Avalo, we Chinese are willing to help you find out these things, and if possible, we will release all the slaves, but not now. Because our team has very important things to do." Do. But I believe that when we arrive at our destination and I tell the highest officer there, you will get a reply soon."

Ji Yijun said dissatisfied: "You have to wait until Chen Hansheng is notified before taking action. How long will it take? If they are ready and hide again by then, we will definitely go to waste."

"Don't forget what the responsibilities of a soldier are? The safety of slaves is important, but the battle we are going to fight will never allow any mistakes. Reinforcements must arrive on time! Now no one should disclose this matter to the outside world." Huang Zheng answered him very sternly, "What's more, do you think such a large-scale thing can be accomplished by one or two people? You will get nothing if you alert the enemy! Let's wait until we get to Alano Town!"

"Okay! Now that you are the company commander, you have the final say. But I also put down one sentence, I will not let this matter go. No matter what Chen Hansheng's attitude is, I will investigate it." Ji Yijun said loudly.
