Chapter 77: Do Not Die (Part 1)
Cons moaned and opened his eyes. The first thing that caught his eyes was the small straw roof in front of him.?? Did I survive?
After this insight, Cons began to habitually check his body.
All limbs were wrapped in linen and clamped up with wooden sticks. With the smell of herbs, Cons could conclude that it was a herb that specializes in treating broken bones and tendons.
Seeing that nothing else could move except the neck above his body. Cons couldn't help but smile bitterly. Although he survived, he believed that his limbs were broken, right?
Cons knew how he was injured.
After jumping off the cliff, he was very unlucky to be blown by the strong wind and landed on the land. If it weren't for the dense forests' branches like dense nets that caught him, he might have fallen into meat sauce on the spot.
However, if you didn't realize that something was wrong and when you rushed towards the branch, you would use your hands and feet to reduce the falling force, you might have been killed on the spot.
"Grandpa, that guy with a big life has woken up!"
Cons's eyes darkened, and then a child voice started to sound. Cons, who had wandered around many places, immediately heard that this was Estee's mainland language.
Although the language system in the entire West is similar, there are still obvious differences. People who have not studied cannot speak it at all, and cannot understand the languages of other countries.
"Don't be so rude, call him brother." A somewhat old voice said.
Tong Yin defended: "What big brother? Who knows if he is an uncle? Besides, he is indeed a guy with a big life. He didn't even fall to death after falling at such a high height. Why isn't he dead?"
Following the voices of the two, one old and one young walked to Cons.
The old man was about fifty or sixty years old, his hair and beard were white, and his face was covered with wind and frost, which made him look very old, but his strong arms and straight body made people understand that the old man's body had the strength that was no less than that of a young man.
The dressing is very simple, the upper body is not dyed, yellow and old linen clothes, black linen trousers on the lower body, and simple long boots are made of animal skin and hemp ropes.
The young man had a snot, and was only as tall as the old man's waist. He wore a short robe and robe tied with hemp rope in the middle, and divided into tops and bottoms.
He is a little boy in his teens, and his hair is brown.
A very common hair color.
"Young man, you are really lucky. When you fall down so high, you are just a fracture of your limbs and an internal injury, but don't worry?"
Before the old man finished speaking, the child interrupted and said, "With my grandfather's specialty, you will be at ease. In less than two or three months, you will be as intact as before and lively! You must know that my grandfather is not only the best hunter in the Mantes Forest, but also the best pharmacist in the Mantes Forest."
"Don't brag." The old man knocked the child's head first before saying to Cons: "Young man, you can rest assured and take care of your health and think about other things. By the way, I am Anker Raylent, just call me Uncle Anker, this is??"
The child raised his chest, raised his head and said proudly, "I am Bill Raylent, just call me Bill."
Cons opened his mouth with difficulty and said in the not very skilled Este Mainland language: "My name is Cons."
"Cons? Where is your last name?" Bill said with a curious look.
However, as soon as he said this, Anker slapped the head and drove him aside, he apologized to Cons: "Apologize to you, that little guy always likes to show off his last name, not intentionally offend him."
Cons shook the corner of his mouth, smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm an orphan, am I a name myself? Thank you for saving me."
Uncle Anke smiled and shook his head. Before he could speak, Bill, who was driven aside, couldn't help but say first: "You don't have to care about saving your life. My grandfather will definitely say it's just a small task. There's no way. Who told me that grandfather is a good old man who helps others?"
Uncle Anke could only shake his head helplessly at his grandson's character.
"No matter what, I still thank you very much for your help. I believe that Mr. Anke's family must be a very famous noble."
Cons would say this because in the Western language country, surnames are owned by people from noble families, and it is impossible for civilians to have surnames.
Uncle Anke smiled bitterly: "That happened many years ago. Now I am just an ordinary hunter. The surname Rarenter is just a glory in my memory.
"Okay, your inner abdomen is hit, so don't say so much and have a good rest."
After he said that, he took his grandson away.
"Brother Cons, this is venison soup. Unfortunately, you can't eat meat yet, otherwise you can taste the taste of barbecue." Bill said while feeding the soup to Cons.
Cons drank the soup with a smile. He didn't say anything grateful to Bill and Uncle Anke anymore, but just kept this matter silently in his heart.
Cons knew that he could give his life to them at any time.
Uncle Anke searched for herbs and hunted to maintain the livelihood of the three people, while Bill changed the medicine for himself, turned over, cleaned his body, and fed him.
From Bill's words, he learned that this place was just their temporary residence when they were hunting, and the village they lived in was hundreds of kilometers away. For him, the two grandparents and grandsons had not returned to the village for more than a month.
Fortunately, they only depend on each other for their grandfathers and grandchildren. They have no relatives in the village and spend most of their time outside, so Cons is not so guilty.
For Bill's parents, Cons only learned from Uncle Anke's phrases that they died when Bill was young, and there was no clear explanation for how they died.
When Mr. Anker talked about this, the pain and hatred in his eyes showed, Cons understood that things were not that simple, but he did not ask in detail.
The one who can repay their grandfathers and grandchildren is to give their lives to them and die for them. Cons will never frown.
Bill, who could not go hunting with his grandfather, had to chat with Cons. While he was surprised that Cons had been to so many places, Cons also knew where he was from Bill.
This is the Mantes Forest, which is the forest you saw on the cliff.
The place where he lives now is more than fifty kilometers away from the Binghai River. It is said that Bill found his own place ten kilometers away. What strange is that he flew so far?
During the chat, Cons also knew from Bill that the Mantes Forest is a large forest with a total area of more than 1.5 million square kilometers. It is located in the east of the Este Continent. To the east is the Binghai River, to the west is the Ultraman Empire, to the south is the Wilter Free Alliance, and to the north are the three independent principalities: Zuoerte, Bingyao and Xuefei.
Although Cons knew these names of the country, the specific location was not as detailed as Bill said. Comparing the location Bill said, the simple map I saw before was simply doodle.
Due to the huge forest area, complex terrain, and adjacent to the Binghai River, there are almost loopholes everywhere, the five countries adjacent to the forest have limited their defense lines to the surrounding forests.
This also made the Mantes Forest a place for escape for dangerous elements such as thieves, tax evaders, murderers, political losers, etc.
It is estimated that there are more than 100,000 people living in the Mantes Forest, divided into thousands of villages and scattered in the vast forest. Bill, this child, knows so much, and it is taught by Mr. Anker.
From this point of view, this Uncle Anke is not an ordinary person?
Most people don’t know the specific location of other countries at all, and they can’t even figure out whether there are other countries around their own country, let alone how many people they know.
More than a month later.
At this time, Cons was able to get out of bed and move.
Seeing Cons slowly stretching his muscles, Bill couldn't help but rub his eyes, and then said to Anker with an incredible look on his face: "Grandpa, didn't you say that Brother Cons will take at least two months to get up? Why can you get out of bed and move around in one month?"
When Cons heard this, he immediately said, "Thanks to Mr. Anker's medicine. If not, I'm afraid I can't even move. Of course, Bill's help is indispensable, otherwise I would be stinked even if I don't starve to death."
Faced with his life-saving benefactor who has taken care of him for more than a month, Cons could no longer put on a taciturn face. Cons, who has been a superior for more than a year, had long known how he should bring the friendship between the two sides closer.
"Hehe, of course, my grandfather's medicine is famous throughout the Mantes Forest!" Bill, who was praised, looked proud last, as if it was all his credit.
For Cons's quick recovery, Uncle Anke could only sigh at Cons' strength, and his grandson Bill's flattery made him laugh.
"Cons, according to your current state, you can walk normally in a few more days. After recovery, what are your plans? Are you going to go back to your country to take revenge?" Uncle Anke, who was sitting at the door watching Cons move, suddenly said.
"Did you see it?" Cons turned around and smiled at Uncle Anker.
"Although the military uniform on you was broken by the branches, you can still see that it was the uniform of a senior officer. Besides the traces cut by the branches, there are no new scars created by weapons such as swords and arrows. The old scars on you indicate that you are not a soldier who will escape in battle and are not afraid of death. So, why should a soldier who is not afraid of death face jumping off a cliff?
When Mr. Anke said this, his eyes showed a look of pain and hatred.
"Wow, brother is a senior officer?" Bill immediately jumped up and shouted, then he thought of something and asked Anker, "Grandpa, what's the reason?"
"How could you be willing to die so easily if you don't pursue the sudden betrayal of your confidant subordinates or good friends?" Anke said in a leisurely tone. The heavy feeling made Bill immediately shut his mouth.
"I don't have a motherland, and I don't plan to go back and take revenge." Cons sighed at the sky.
He really wasn't going back to seek revenge on Ida.
For some reason, Cons was not very angry about Ida's betrayal, nor could he get angry.
How could this happen? Do you have feelings for Ida and can't bear to kill him?
No, if there were no archers joining at that time, I would have chopped off his head long ago.
But now I have no desire to kill him.
Or do you mean you don’t care about his harm at all?
