Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 79 The Redemption of Moon God Village

Seeing that it was getting dark and the lights were going out, Knight Commander Alan Cousins ​​got up from the bed in the dark.

He first listened for a while, and after confirming that there was no sound and that everyone was asleep, he walked to the door of the confinement room.

Although the conditions in the confinement room are much better than those in the dungeon, with beds, desks, and wardrobes, the thieves in Luna Village obviously did not relax their vigilance against Cousins. The thick iron chain with a lock, Fortunately, it was firmly tied to the door.

Cousins ​​lifted the cold lock with his hand, then took out a thin wire from his pocket.

When he was in his early teens and a hawker at the Eagle's End Fish Market, Cousins ​​once pried the locks of a competitor's fish pond and poured rat poison into the pond!
The lily knight was relieved to find that after decades, his old craftsmanship has not regressed.

He inserted the wire into the hole in the door lock, stabbed it three times and one deep, and the lock opened.

Cousins ​​grabbed the packed luggage and crept out of the confinement room.

The entire "Moon God Village" is built on the corner of the Nutao Mountains. Most of the buildings are excavated along the mountain. It is more like a row of cave dwellings stacked along the hillside than a camp. .

The location of Cousins' confinement room is exactly in the second row from the top to the bottom - most of the bandits' dormitories are on the lower floor, so in the middle of the night, on the open-air corridor on the second floor, there is only one The bandit on duty leaned on the railing to look at the scenery, with his back facing Cousins ​​who slipped out of the confinement room.

The poem is well written: you look at the scenery from the corridor, and Cousins ​​looks at you from behind.

The former commander of the Knights of Eagle's Rest, waved his hand at the back of the head of the bandit on duty, and wrapped it in heavy luggage, knocking him unconscious to the ground with no chivalrous spirit.

Cousins ​​dragged the unconscious bandit on duty, hid him in his confinement cell, and then carefully closed the fence door, his movements proficient and fluent just like the otherworldly version of Killer 47.

Once the guards are eliminated, things are much easier.

The sentries of the entire Moon God Village basically stayed on the wooden sentry towers beside the wall, watching the wasteland outside the village to prepare for enemy attacks, and at most a few guards were watching the prisoners near the dungeon;

The nearby guards were completely empty.

No one could even imagine that "Master Cousins", who has been honestly staying in the confinement room under house arrest, would suddenly pick the lock to escape one day!

However, Cousins ​​was not foolish enough to escape directly along the corridor and the ascending and descending stairway excavated along the mountain—

——If I meet a bandit who wakes up at night, wouldn’t everything be over?

Cousins, who had already figured out the structure of the Moon God Village, tiptoed to the other side of the cave corridor—

Here is a cliff with a height of 30 meters vertically descending from the top of the mountain. On weekdays, bandits love to pee down from here, and there is a thrill of flying down [-] feet.

Cousins ​​took out a thick hemp rope that had already been prepared from the package and fastened one end to the railing. He grabbed the other end, turned over the railing, and pulled the rope back step by step from the cliff. go down!
Since this place happened to be on the back slope of the mountain opposite to Yueshenzhai Square, no matter how vigilant the sentries of Yueshenzhai were, they would never have imagined that there was actually a strong man here doing rock climbing and rappelling!
Soon, the soles of Cousins' feet touched the solid ground, indicating that he had reached the same level as the small square in front of Lunazhai Mountain.

He loosened the rope, clawed at the rock wall, and looked out with his probe.

Much to his disappointment, the Moon Godzhai Square was not empty today, but seemed to be holding some kind of event. There were many bandits hanging around the bonfire and shouting, as if they were watching others. Wrestling matches, and the square is full of merry air.

However, this group of bandits focused on their own business, which meant that they didn't notice Cousins ​​at all.

Alan Cousins, who was more like a veteran thief than Lily Knight, quietly touched the back of the bandits—the noisy voices formed the best cover, and Cousins ​​was already gentle. The footsteps were perfectly hidden.

Knight Commander Cousins ​​passed through the blind spot of the guards on the sentry tower, and sneaked along the walls of the Moon God Village to the gate of the village before he encountered the real challenge:

Although the wooden gate of the cottage is open, there are three guards who are in charge of watching the gate at night.
It is impossible for Cousins ​​to escape the cottage by bypassing the sight of these guards!
Fortunately, as the official "Lily Knight" of the Empire, Aaron Cousins ​​is familiar with the most elegant escape method that a noble knight can use in such a desperate situation!
He leaned tightly against the maple door of the cottage, took out a small bag from the package, took a few deep breaths, and when he calmed down completely, he stuck his head out and whispered to the thieves who were guarding the door. called:
"Hey, something happened!"

I never thought that there would be enemy bandits at this time. After hearing the cry, they turned around in amazement. As a result, a small cloth bag flew in with the sound of breaking the air, and hit the head bandit in the face. , The white dust that burst out from the small bag smeared them all over their heads and faces all at once!

lime powder!
This is the magic weapon that Knight Commander Cousins ​​has used since he was a child, a noble knight!

Using the same sack of lime powder, he disciplined the rogue thieves at Eagle's End and (after putting money in the referee) showed off his prowess at the Knight Tournament!
When a pile of white calcium oxide powder suddenly hits you, anyone will only have three feelings:

First surprise, then pain, and finally a deep, lifelong shame!

Of course, after being attacked by Cousins ​​with lime powder, the bandits have not had time to experience the shameful stage, and are currently immersed in intense pain like burning their eyes!

Their screams even attracted the sentries on the sentry tower to look at them!

And the witty, brave and noble lily knight Allen Cousins ​​wants this effect!

Taking advantage of the gate thief being fascinated by Lime and the attention of the sentries being diverted, Cousins ​​smeared oil on both feet, first jumped to the shadow outside the village gate and under the wall, and after confirming that no one was paying attention, One head plunged into the barren grassland outside the cottage, and under the cover of waist-high weeds, he just crawled and fled out!

Should it be said that Cousins ​​moved too quickly, or that the thieves in Moon God Village did not expect that their martial arts master would suddenly run away, so that they were not alert enough, and waited until a few guards were washed with rapeseed oil Good eyes, Knight Commander Alan Cousins ​​has run almost two kilometers on the wasteland!
——Cousins' martial arts, although there is a slight gap compared with his boasted level, but his physical fitness is really nothing to say!

However, before Cousins, who was running all the way, could immerse himself in the joy of regaining his freedom for too long, he saw three dark shadows with horses in the distance in the night wind of the wasteland.

The first reaction was to hit Cousins, who was blocking the road. Just as he was about to slam on the brakes to turn around and run away, he heard a familiar female voice shout in surprise:

"Kao, Knight Commander Cousins?"

Alan Cousins, who was wearing only shirts and shorts and was covered in hay and scum, looked up in a daze, and immediately saw the young man who was the leader of the three, wearing a short golden eagle pattern. robes, and his head was covered with bright black hair like raven feathers.

As if inspired by the Holy Spirit, Aaron Cousins, the former Knights Commander of Eagle's End, suddenly realized that his whole life had been waiting for this moment to come——

He pounced forward, knelt down, hugged the black-haired boy's leg and cried loudly:

"Lord Lord, I finally live to see you!!!"
