Old Sean ran all the way, but in the end it was a step too late.
When he arrived outside the tavern, the door of the tavern was already surrounded by villagers.
In front of the villagers, a priest wearing a black priest's robe was standing in front of the door, listening to the villagers' complaints.
"Stop! Stop! What are you doing! Leave me alone!"
Old Sean rushed into the crowd angrily, pushed the crowd aside, and squeezed into the circle.
What he didn't notice was that many of the villagers he pushed away looked at him with unkind eyes.
"Mr. Pastor, misunderstandings are all misunderstandings. Nothing happened here. It's just that these guys got injured in the fall and probably lost their brains, so they gathered together to cause trouble."
The villagers came to the pastor and quickly began to persuade him.
However, the pastor raised his hand to signal Old Sean to stop talking.
"Mr. Village Chief, what you said is wrong. If only one or two people said that, I might not take it seriously. But the whole village said so. As the pastor of the church, I have the responsibility to investigate and find out the truth. .”
"Besides, I haven't heard when a priest came to the church. If a priest from outside comes, it's impossible not to visit our bishop. This is etiquette."
"So, I'm very suspicious of the identity of the person inside. I, Wakan, have been practicing for more than 30 years before I became a priest. The person inside is said to be only in his twenties and is already a priest. This is quite absurd."
That's right, this Pastor Wakkan was very dissatisfied.
After being invited by Carol, he was actually thrown into "doing odd jobs"!
Moreover, he was threatened and threatened that if he could not finish his "errands" on time, they would have to deal with him.
He boasted that he was also a genius in Seine City.
His teacher said he had a good chance of becoming a priest before he was forty.
His merits are enough. The only condition is to break through the professional level as soon as possible. Then his teacher will work hard and arrange for him to become a priest in a church in the countryside. It will not be a problem.
After a few years, when you have enough seniority, you can be transferred to serve in churches in other cities.
But now, a talent like him was actually assigned to work for a "wild" priest.
He didn't even meet her face!
He is a full-time pastor from the Seine City Church! He was slapped in the face in such a rural place!
Moreover, it is said that the "wild" priest who slapped him in the face was younger than himself!
So, jealousy and anger led him to accept the bewitchment of the villagers.
If what the villagers say is true, he can not only expose the true face of the "wild" priest, but also make meritorious deeds for himself.
If what the villagers said was false, he could also make things difficult for the priest and let him know the price of being defiant.
Anyway, he has the support of the church in Seine City, and his teacher is the right-hand man of the bishop. Is it possible that this wild priest dares to offend him!
With this purpose in mind, Wakan did not listen to the village chief's advice at all.
"Come here, bring me the people inside. I want to interrogate them myself."
Vakan, who placed himself in a high position, never thought about the consequences of his actions.
The villagers had been gearing up for a long time. Now with Vakan's order, they seemed to have gained the confidence. They no longer feared Ryan and Leo in the tavern, and rushed into the tavern in a swarm.
However, the stairs on the second floor of the tavern have collapsed.
They are not Leo and cannot jump up at all.
As for Nok, they didn't find out who he was in the inconspicuous corner of the room. They thought Nok was upstairs, so they only shouted loudly to the second floor.
In Leo's room on the second floor, Leo frowned and stood up from the bed.
His bare upper body and body can make men envious and women intoxicated.
While putting on his clothes, he said to the woman with blurred eyes on the bed.
"I'll go down and see what's going on. If you're scared, just go back and stay with little Jasmine and don't come out, do you understand?"
Makina on the bed looked at Leo with watery eyes, blushed and replied: "Yes. Be careful and stay safe."
"Do not worry!"
Leo possessed Makina and kissed her on the forehead, opened the door and walked out.
Makina sat naked on the bed, looking at the closed door, feeling a little dazed.
She held her hot cheeks and couldn't figure out how she ended up in bed with this man she had only met twice.
You know, after her husband passed away, she raised little Jasmine alone for four years.
In the past four years, she had encountered countless teasing and teasing, but she had not made a single mistake.
Why was it that today, because of little Jasmine, I was crying in this man's arms and was kissed by him.
Then, in a daze, she arrived at this man's room, and everything fell into place.
She is not just any woman!
However, that man is still on the journey, will he be willing to stay for his own sake?
Probably not? What's more, he also has a daughter, Little Jasmine.
It is estimated that this man named Gareth is just using himself as a pastime because of his lonely journey.
I was also obsessed with it, so why did I just obey him like this?
Makina was so lost in thought that she didn't notice the people downstairs shouting her name, telling her to get out and die.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have any random thoughts.
Just as there was a commotion in the tavern.
A group of troops is heading towards Tarn Village.
The leader was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties.
The man has brown hair and yellow eyes, a slender mustache on his upper lip, and a neatly trimmed sideburn on his chin.
He was wearing a slim-fitting noble knight's uniform and a standard knight's sword on his waist.
Sitting on the saddle, driving the red war horse, running ahead.
One horse behind him was Tax Collector Carroll, with a happy smile on his dusty face.
Even though the horse in front of the man blew the snow on his face, Carol was content with it and was not angry at all.
Because the man in front of him was Carol's master, Lord of Tarn Village, Baron Arnos Fred.
Behind the two of them, four guards rode horses, guarding a carriage. The carriage was pulling the baron's favorite cook and her assistant.
Their group was on their way to Tarn Village for a banquet.
"Carol, how far is it from Tarn Village?"
"Lord Baron, we're not far away, less than one French distance away. By going around the dead woods in front, you can see Tarn Village!"
"Very good! I can't wait to meet the knight you mentioned!"
The baron's words made Carol feel a little bad.
Even if he explained thoroughly the pros and cons of keeping Father Ryan, the Baron was not very interested.
However, when he knew that Father Ryan was actually accompanied by a guardian knight, he became excited.
Carol then remembered that the Baron was a martial arts fanatic.
Although his title is only a baron, he is already one of the top masters under the earl.
The knights under the earl's command were all selected by the baron.
If there hadn't been a war now, I'm afraid the Baron would have become a Viscount based on his military exploits, or even...
Except for a few distinguished adults who the baron did not dare to challenge, no one among the knights under the earl was a match for the baron.
Therefore, he could understand the Baron's excitement when he heard about Lord Gareth's presence.
But this is somewhat putting the cart before the horse!
If Father Ryan is neglected, his plan will be ruined.
This is a huge loss for the Baron.
Carol tried to persuade him, but unexpectedly, the Baron in front suddenly accelerated.
"Lord Baron, be careful! There are potholes on the road!"
In the countryside, the roads are made by oneself.
With such thick snow, I didn’t care about the trail, so I just walked by feel.
If a horse's hoof gets stuck in a pit, it's easy to fall!
"Carol, there's a situation ahead. Let the guards behind you follow. You stay with the carriage!"
The Baron's voice came from the front, and the person had already run some distance away.
"Is there a situation?"
This surprised Carroll, but he did not hesitate and quickly slowed down and moved closer to the rear group.
"The Baron is alive. There is a situation ahead. The four of you... no, the three of you go to support the Baron. You must protect the safety of the Baron. If the situation is not right, escort the Baron away immediately. Got it!"
"Yes! Mr. Carroll." The three guards rode their mounts and accelerated towards the front.
"You, guard the carriage. If something goes wrong, escort the carriage back to the castle first. Ask Lord Clerk Graeme for help."
"Got it, Mr. Carroll."
"Now, let's stop at the corner of the forest and I'll observe the situation. If something goes wrong, we'll leave immediately."
Carol did not blindly pursue the Baron, this was his way of survival.
If they can't defeat the baron, they will die if they go up there, so they might as well go back and ask for help.
It was with such agility in assessing the situation that Carol was able to serve as the tax collector for several lords.
But it was said that the baron took the lead, drew his sword and rushed towards the Tarn village.
A hundred meters away from the entrance of Tarn Village, a ferocious-looking young man grabbed a girl by the neck and lifted her up.
"Run? Where can you run? Lisanna, don't blame me, you forced me."
The young man's ferocious face was full of murderous intent.
What he was holding in his hand was Lisanna, the village chief's daughter, who was waiting for Carol at the entrance of the village.
"Faith...brother...brother, stop...hand, I...I feel...so uncomfortable..."
The girl's plea caused a flash of struggle on Faith's ferocious face.
"Sorry, Lisanna, you forced me. Don't worry, the discomfort is temporary. Soon, you won't feel the pain anymore. Who told you to disobey and insist on running out! I will send you off soon. Mother went down to reunite with you!"
Face said to Lisanna with a sick look on his face, grabbed Lisanna's hands and started to exert force, trying to strangle her to death.
"You bastard! You dare to commit murder in front of this Baron! Let go!"
Baron Arnos Fred looked at the distance between himself and Feis, and knew that he could no longer catch up. He immediately shouted and threw the long sword in his hand towards Feis.
This is also because he is confident in his own martial arts, otherwise others might not dare to do this.
After all, it is easy to accidentally injure a hostage.
Faith didn't expect the baron to come so quickly.
When he heard the baron's shout, he turned his head distractedly and looked over, only to see a sharp sword coming towards him.
It was too late to hide, so he could only reluctantly let go of his hands and throw Lisanna down.
"Bang!"
The sword hit Fez, but it did not hurt Fez as the baron expected.
The moment Faith was hit, his body exploded into a plume of black smoke that floated into the air.
The baron's sword plunged into the snow.
"Baron Arnos Fred, I didn't expect you to come so quickly. I will remember this sword."
Fez's vicious voice came from the air, and the black mist dissipated, turning into a crow and flying towards the village.
