Chapter 20 Jeanna Shi

On the steep descent, surrounded by a dark and humid fantasy, the only source of light was the torch held by the girl.

She walked in front.

The shadow in the firelight will sway due to the wind in the cave. Under the shadow magnified by the firelight, the girl's originally thin body appeared even thinner, but she walked very fast.

"Can you keep up? There are many sharp stones on the road. You haven't worn out your feet, have you?"

This is probably the way a girl cares about people...a more direct way.

"Miss Jeanne, I'm behind you, don't worry."

"Oh." The girl didn't look back, she just responded softly, and then her pace also increased a bit... She thought to herself that this guy from the city might just be trying to hold on.

how to say?

Maybe this guy's swordsmanship is really good, but he is not a hunter after all, and it is his first time walking this rugged road... He actually said it so easily. Even if he has experience, it still consumes a lot of energy.

However, when I met this guy in the forest, he seemed to have demonstrated some good wild survival skills?

You shouldn't be distracted by thinking about these things at this time.

"careful."

"Ah? Ah..."

The girl's feet slipped instantly, and she was about to slide down the steep rock wall. At the moment of shock in her heart, the girl instinctively grabbed something to stabilize her body, but what she grabbed was a warm palm.

Half of the girl's body is almost leaning out of the abyss below!

At this time, the falling stones were suddenly swallowed up by the darkness. The girl's heart beat rapidly. The feeling of surviving a disaster even drained all the strength from her body for a moment.

She felt a little weak... her body was being pulled back bit by bit.

"This underground acupuncture point is too humid, and there is a lot of moss attached to the stone surface." Boss Luo suddenly said at this time: "I almost tripped and fell several times just now. Fortunately, Miss Jeanne turned around to remind me from time to time."

I...have you reminded me about this?

It seems... Yes? No?

The girl who survived the disaster took a deep breath and calmed down slightly, "I'm fine. Let's continue on our way. We will soon be able to see the underground river, and... thank you just now for saving me once."

Boss Luo said casually: "Miss Jeanne also saved me and my companions when we were in the forest. And when we were at the mansion, it was Miss Jeanne who took action so that I could escape from the hands of the cavalry."

The girl blinked her eyes and suddenly said: "Do we count as life-and-death friends?"

Boss Luo said: "On the road of adventure, you will always encounter many dangerous things. Mutual help can effectively ensure the safety of the team. Miss Jeanna, the life-and-death friendship you mentioned is a deeper relationship... So it shouldn’t be a problem for the time being.”

Is it just an adventure...

The girl hummed softly and quickly withdrew the palm that was still being held... This guy's palm was smooth and delicate, not even calloused. How could he catch his master?

I really don’t know how this guy learned such a superb swordsmanship with no traces of labor on his hands... Shouldn’t swordsmanship be acquired over time, with perseverance, and with countless sweats?

But...it's really a warm hand.

"I don't know if we can catch up." She forcibly diverted her attention... She really didn't know why her attention always drifted away inadvertently.

"It should be possible if it goes well." Boss Luo thought for a moment and said, "I'm just afraid it won't go well."

"Why?" The girl couldn't help but frowned.

Boss Luo said seriously: "I thought about it carefully, and I found that people around me are more or less likely to suddenly face some troublesome things... Maybe I am more likely to bring bad luck to others."

The girl opened her mouth in surprise, how could someone describe herself like this?

But thinking about it carefully, it seems that there is such a thing... For example, this guy's missing Master Durand, for example, since their group appeared, the Burgundian cavalry also appeared.

The girl shook her head and said calmly: "The Burgundian cavalry does not attack our village once or twice. In this area controlled by the Burgundians, Donremi Village is the only one that still supports the French royal family. area. It is not strange that they want to eradicate us. You just happened to encounter this matter."

"Why don't your villages bow to the Burgundians?" Boss Luo asked curiously: "This place is remote enough. Even the royal family may have long forgotten it, and may have never even heard of it. In troubled times, you guys There should be better options.”

"How could those guys with Viking barbarian blood be a better choice under their rule?" The girl snorted coldly, "Free blood will never be a slave! If I were not a girl, I have already left the village and joined the French army to drive these barbaric guys back to the Navia Peninsula of their ancestors! I have already planned to disguise myself as a man and join the army when I become an adult."

Listening to the girl's firm words at this time, Boss Luo couldn't help but hear a chirping voice in his mind, emmmmm... Jeanna Shi?

"Is it your ambition to go into battle and kill the enemy, Miss Jeanne?" Boss Luo asked, looking into her eyes.

The girl asked back: "Why, do you look down on women? Women can't go into battle to kill the enemy?"

"Of course." Boss Luo smiled and said: "I'm thinking that on the battlefield, Miss Jeanne will definitely become a presence like the goddess of victory. Your light will shine on the soldiers who follow you. You will It will be their flag.”

The girl couldn't help but blush.

Why does this person speak like this? He speaks so beautifully all of a sudden, making people dizzy... What is she like, the goddess of victory? We must also become a banner of light!

Don't be ashamed!

The sound of rushing underground river water came, followed by a strong wind blowing underground. At this time, the girl quickly looked happy and said: "We will be there soon!"

…

…

"Great, we saw the village! It seems that those damn Burgundian cavalry haven't arrived yet!"

Outside Donremi Village, a militiaman said excitedly at this time.

Everyone who escaped from [Rose Mansion] was here... They did not disperse and escape in the end, because Boss Luo held Lyon Bell hostage and gave them enough time to travel.

But the maid Clary who lives in [Freedom City] has never done such a high-intensity exercise. At this time, her face is pale and she is dripping with sweat.

Azaches and Livar were somewhat short of breath.

At this time, Mr. Jacques asked one militiaman to rush to the village management office to report the news, and then asked another militiaman to go to the sentry post in the village to notify the people standing guard at night and blow the horn.

He took the rest of the people to meet with the village chief of Chalis to decide whether to attack the Burgundian cavalry or evacuate the villagers as soon as possible.

"Several of you, although you are also witnesses, the Burgundian cavalry is going to attack our village!" Mr. Jacques looked at Mr. Asaches and said: "So, from now on, I have I can't take care of you too much, so please stay here and wait for the time being... Please forgive me! However, I will try my best to ensure your safety, for the sake of the young man who came forward! God, I hope he can come back safely .”

After saying that, Mr. Jacques hurried to join the village chief and others.

"How could it become like this..."

Clary had just calmed down her heartbeat, but as she watched the horn blowing, every household in the village lit up with lights... Looking at the frightened village, the maid's expression became even more worried.

"Boss Asaches, what on earth is this place? Can we go back to the Holy City?" The maid's voice sounded somewhat like she was crying.

Mr. Assass could only comfort Clary softly.

At this time, after Livar had settled the empty shell of Campus Principal Ludick and the male assistant, he suddenly came to the maid and Nan Xiaonan, "You don't seem to be very worried about your companions."

"I'm worried! I'm worried to death!" Nan Xiaonan said directly: "But it's useless to worry now, isn't it?"

If the boss is not here, I'm worried that the boss's wife will make things difficult for me in the future... Boss, please come back soon and make excuses!

"I hope he can come back safely." Livar nodded: "It's a pity that I can't pray here, otherwise I would pray for him."

At this time, the maid lady said coldly: "Mr. Lival, don't you know how to pray now that you are unable to produce willpower?"

Livar couldn't help but feel startled, and looked at this beautiful woman in surprise... These words had an inexplicable impact on him, so much so that he didn't even care whether he heard "generating will power" or "giving birth to will power" force】.

"That's right!" Livar took a deep breath, "Even if I can't obtain the power of my wish, the faith in my heart should not disappear... The saint cannot listen to my prayers only because I am not pious enough."

With that said, Mr. Livar closed his eyes directly.

"If you just pray for a certain person in your heart, you don't need to be heard by anyone." The maid's voice suddenly floated, "If you really need a place that you can reach, it must be the river of destiny... I hope your words of prayer can reach the river of destiny."

Livar's eyes twitched slightly, but they soon calmed down.

Um?

I don't know if it was an illusion, but for a brief moment, Nan Xiaonan seemed to see a flicker of light on Livar's body.

Asaches came over after comforting Clary.

After the exploration team returned to [Rose Mansion] with Mr. Jacques and his entourage, they had no time or opportunity to calm down and communicate properly.

There were too many questions in Asaches's mind, such as the matter of Ludik waking up with his male assistant.

"How did Miss Youye, Miss Nan, and Ludick wake up, and then how did they become like this?" Asaxes asked after careful consideration: "I heard from Clary that it was because you gave them Is it related to the fact that I was given some potions?”

"I prepared the potion temporarily." The maid said calmly at this time: "There has been no clinical trial, so it is not surprising to have such sequelae."

this?

Mr. Azashes's cheek twitched slightly. If it weren't for the inexplicable awe he felt when facing this woman, he would have cursed her.

At this time, the maid lady said: "Since I prepared the potion, if something goes wrong after they drink it, I will naturally take responsibility... Especially this Ludick, he should be a descendant of the [Mother of Saints] family, right? I won’t let anything happen to him.”

In the Kingdom of Holy Light, everyone is created equal... Although I don't know why the other party mentioned Ludik's origin specifically at this time, Mr. Asaches also lost the idea of ​​accountability at this time.

He was good at holding people to account, but he didn't even dare to look at this beautiful woman... What the hell, when his grandma was still alive, her gaze didn't look so majestic!

"Eh..." Mr. Asaches sighed at this time and said: "I don't know when those Burgundian cavalry will come. Depending on the situation, I'm afraid they won't be able to resist them. I don't know if we can hide." After this disaster, Durand still doesn’t know what to do now!”

At this time, the maid suddenly said: "There is an underground river nearby. If the village cannot resist it, you can hide in the underground river. Follow the river to reach the other side of the valley."

"Really?" Mr. Asaches was immediately overjoyed, and immediately reacted and asked in surprise: "How did you know?"

As if she hadn't heard anything, the maid walked directly in front of Ludik, opened Ludik's eyes with her fingers, and looked into his eyes.

Asaxes could only roll his eyes... This beautiful woman seemed to be indifferent to everyone except Mr. Luo, and only maintained a polite appearance.

"I'll go look for it and see if there's anything to eat." Asaches thought for a while: "Escape also requires strength, and you haven't eaten anything for a day."

"Then I..." Seeing this, Nan Xiaonan also said quickly, "Me too... Huh? I seem to have nothing to do?"

"If you don't mind, come with me to find something to eat and drink." Mr. Asaches said helplessly.

…

…

The light from the torches could not reach the other side of the river.

Under the only light source, you can see that the river is flowing at an alarming speed... The height of this underground river should be quite large.

There is a strong chill all around.

I saw the girl waving a torch at this time, as if she was looking for something... Soon, I saw the girl dragging out a large cloth bag from behind a large underground stone.

The girl Jeanne directly stuck the torch on the ground, and then took out some sewn things that looked like animal skins from the big cloth bag.

"These are air bags made of animal skins." The girl said quickly: "Relying on the buoyancy of the air bags, we can quickly float to the vicinity of the village. I left a net and rope there, and when we float there will stop us."

With that said, the girl blew directly into the airbag.

"Is there only one air bag?" Boss Luo thought for a while and said, "Then it seems that we can only share it."

There is really only one, and if they share it... wouldn't they have to hold each other?

Cough cough cough cough!

After blowing and blowing on the air bag, the girl suddenly lost her breath.
