After making up his mind to go to Qiangguo - Kawulu, Guan Heng finally had a plan for the next step. He suddenly began to deal with the food in front of him with all his strength. After finishing the food in three mouthfuls, Guan Heng threw a few coins on the table and walked out. to the restaurant.
…
"What a hell! What kind of shabby place is this?" Guan Heng, who originally planned to go to the capital of Kawuru, listened to the directions of a woodcutter, so he walked in circles and came to A vast, dark green swamp!
There is a dirty and putrid smell everywhere, and every step you take is muddy! Guan Heng became more and more frustrated as he walked. He was so angry that he cursed the woodcutter who was pointing the way. In fact, it was really no wonder. It was not that Guan Heng had a poor sense of direction, but that there was a sudden thick fog that caused Guan Heng to lose sight of the road for a while. I didn't know the road ahead, so I went to the wrong place!
The most important thing is that this poor place is not only difficult to walk, but there are also some flying monsters chasing Guan Heng. They are a kind of blue-beaked strange crows, which have been hovering above Guan Heng's head and refuse to disperse. , seems to be waiting for Guan Heng to accidentally fall into the swamp, so that the strange crows can take the opportunity to fly down and peck!
"Pah!" With a bit of impatience and annoyance, Guan Heng casually threw the stone he picked up at the strange crow: "Roll, roll, roll! What an unlucky bird!"
"Quack, quack, quack!" Frightened by the flying rocks, the blue-beaked crow immediately fluttered its wings and fled in all directions!
"Alas, this egg...has become hotter and hotter recently!" Guan Heng touched the egg carried in the bag on his back and muttered in a low voice: "But the little guy inside has not hatched yet. ,What exactly does that mean?"
In addition to towering ancient trees and strange shrubs scattered all around, it is a dense foggy swamp!
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Guan Heng's face became increasingly ugly as he was walking hard. Suddenly, he stopped suddenly, because at this moment, Guan Heng discovered that a building appeared in front of him!
"Great! Finally, we no longer have to sleep in this damn swamp!" Guan Heng was overjoyed and ran over in three steps at a time!
He raised his hand and was about to knock on the door of this wooden house, when the door suddenly opened with a creak!
"Bang!" Guan Heng and the person who walked out quickly bumped into each other face to face, and the two people sat down on the ground at the same time with a thump!
"Ouch!" The other party covered his hurt head and yelled: "Where did you come from, you daredevil? Do you want to hit me to death?"
"Asshole! Not only am I going to hit you, I'm also going to kill you!" Guan Heng suddenly became furious when he saw this man's face. He reached out and grabbed the other person's collar and shouted: "You damn old woodcutter! What kind of broken road do you mean? I walked in the swamp for a whole day and was almost exhausted to death!"
It turns out that the person who opened the door was the woodcutter who showed Guan Heng the way outside the swamp this morning. This is his home.
"I, I... I didn't point you to the wrong way!" The old woodcutter was also stunned when he saw Guan Heng. At this time, the other person's hand on the collar became tighter and tighter. He was almost strangled to death. The woodcutter was in a hurry. He shouted: "Young man! Let go, let me go quickly... I'm going to kill someone!"
"Humph!" Guan Heng let go of the woodcutter, and he strode into the wooden house: "Anyway, you made me get lost. I will stay with you tonight. Where's dinner?"
"Oh, okay, it's no problem to stay here with me!" The old woodcutter sighed and closed the door. He first poured a glass of water and handed it to Guan Heng, who was sitting at the table, and then said: "I I’ll get you some food later, but I was worrying about something embarrassing, young man, and you showed up!”
"What's wrong? What's so embarrassing?" Guan Heng asked casually while drinking water.
"I can't leave now, but I have something urgent to go to Dia City in front of the swamp!"
The old woodcutter said: "My daughter is the maid of the General's Mansion in Dia City. She asked someone to send me a letter a while ago, saying that she had something urgent to discuss with me recently and asked me to go to Dia City. But just this afternoon, I injured my foot while collecting firewood!"
Only then did Guan Heng notice that the old woodcutter was leaning on a wooden stick, with some rags wrapped around his legs to wrap up his wounds.
"Young man, I see that you are in a hurry. You must be a long-distance traveler. You will definitely pass by Dia City tomorrow and the day after tomorrow!" The old woodcutter pleaded to Guan Heng: "Well, why don't you send a message to me? My daughter, I just said that I would recover from my injuries and then go find her!"
"Well... ok!" Guan Heng nodded: "It's a piece of cake anyway. Old man, just rest here and recuperate. Leave the message to your concubine to me!"
"Great! Thank you young man, my old man finally met a kind person!" The old woodcutter was filled with joy. Sitting next to the stove, he rubbed his hands and said, "Well, my daughter's name is Veda, she...she is Di The most beautiful maid in Acheng’s garrison general’s mansion, you’ll find out when you get there!”
"Oh, I know!" After hearing this, Guan Heng didn't pay much attention, but just kept it in his heart.
After a simple dinner, Guan Heng chatted with the old woodcutter by the stove.
From the old woodcutter's mouth, Guan Heng got some information about the Kauru Kingdom and the nearby Dia city.
The city of Di'a is located on the northern border of the powerful Ka'uru, and is not bordered by the territory of the orcs. Therefore, the orcs rarely go to this area to hunt and harass. Compared with other areas in Ka'uru that are at war with the orcs, Di'a is Acheng is relatively peaceful here.
The garrison general of the city here, named Carson, is a mediocre man who is greedy for money. Taking advantage of the power he has, he has added a lot of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes to the people in the city, and has begun endless levies and expropriations. It can be said that the people of Dia city Life now is also miserable.
After hearing these things, Guan Heng just shook his head slightly. At this time, his heart was full of disgust for General Carson of Dia City.
"For a scumbag like Carson, the senior officials of the Kawulu royal family let him do whatever he wants?" Guan Heng asked while drinking hot tea, "Isn't there anyone who can take care of it?"
"Hey, what the hell!" With a bit of resentment, the old woodcutter swore, and then said: "Carson has a bunch of bastards working for him. In addition to the standing guard of Dia City, Carson His mansion also maintains a group of private mercenaries, how dare ordinary people dare to provoke him!"
"As for the high-ranking officials in the capital of Kawulu, they receive heavy gifts from Kason every year. They are too late to support Kason!"
Throwing the thick wood in his hand into the stove, the flames lit the wood and crackled. The old woodcutter continued: "My daughter Veda went to Dia City to visit her cousin two years ago, but she was killed by the man from the general's mansion. A bunch of bastards rushed to become maids, causing our father and daughter to be separated and unable to even see each other, alas!"
