Chapter 79 The Trial of the Seven Sons (3)

What should you do if you overhear something obviously inappropriate?

You can choose to continue to wait and see and eavesdrop on more information, or you can choose to sneak away and report. But after shaking his back, Renly put on his trousers and walked straight towards the two shepherds standing by the river not far away.

His behavior was undisguised, and the two shepherds were obviously wary of this. They changed the topic to the issue of buying and selling each other's sheep.

However, they obviously couldn't imagine how good Renly's ears were. This behavior not only failed to cover up anything, but made them more obvious.

"Lemon, are you healed?" When Renly came close to a certain distance, the familiar sloppy sheepherder pretended to notice him and asked him with a smile.

"That's right, I'm full of strength now." Renly replied. After walking to the side of the sheepherder, he suddenly raised his leg and kicked hard without any warning. The other party was caught off guard and let out a scream. Then he hunched over and covered his lower body. But then he was hit on the back of the head by a huge fist, and he fell to the ground with a loud bang.

"You have been exposed!" Renly yelled while smashing.

The other shepherd was stunned for a moment during the process, and then his expression changed drastically after hearing the words. Then without hesitation, he turned around and ran towards the flowing Blackwater River a few steps away and jumped into it.

The sound of splashing into the water shocked the people who had gathered around because of the former shepherd's screams, but at this moment Renly shouted loudly.

"Don't let him get away, they are traitors!"

While shouting, he picked up a pebble on the dusty ground, and then threw it hard at the fugitive who was half a man high in the river and fluttering towards the other side of the river.

The distance was not far, and he had experience with this. He saw the gray oval stone draw a straight parabola in mid-air, and then hit the opponent's head above the water with a crash.

The sheepherder, who was struggling to swim forward, shuddered and was immediately swallowed by the surging river.

This series of things happened very quickly. By the time the people around them reacted, the two shepherds had already been killed. Renly wanted to go up and drag the drowned sheepherd out, but he was blocked by two young men armed with clubs.

"Big Lemon? Why are you crazy?"

One of them stared at him warily and asked.

There are several people named Lemon in the team, so in order to distinguish them, we can only add nicknames.

As members of the Poor People's Assembly, although they were not familiar with the big blond man, they also knew his name.

"They are traitors!" Renly replied. He glanced around and found that the river bank was surrounded by nearby crowds. Those at the front of the team also paid their attention, so he added.

"I heard their conversation and they were traitors."

At this time, he didn't need to do anything more. Someone had already rushed into the river to drag out the sheepherder who had been knocked unconscious. The sound of horse hooves was approaching quickly, and he saw the leading Knight Lelin wearing a rainbow cape trotting all the way. ran over.

The onlookers made way for him, and the man finally arrived in front of Renly, looked down at him and asked: "You say, they are traitors?"

The knight sitting astride the horse was wearing silver-plated armor, with gray hair and black eyes. He was tall and tall, but his voice sounded very old, and his thin face was also full of wrinkles.

He looked to be in his fifties.

"Yes, they are traitors."

As Renly spoke, he lightly kicked the sheepherder beneath him who had been knocked unconscious by him, causing him to groan unconsciously.

"We are discussing running away."

These words caused a commotion among the surrounding crowd. These mixed teams of farmers, craftsmen and assembly members seemed to have never thought that such a thing would happen, and even their expressions did not quite believe it.

It’s just that a discerning person can see that something is definitely not normal when they look at the current situation——

If there were no ghosts, why would the other shepherd jump into the river to escape?

The old knight then dismounted from his horse, squatted down and began to search the unconscious sheepherder in front of Renly, and also began to carefully examine his appearance.

Then he found a dagger and some odds and ends that should not belong to the shepherd.

This situation made the experienced old knight look grim, but he didn't say anything more. Instead, he stood up and shouted to the group of people gathered behind him: "It's two thieves, everyone should disperse!"

Upon hearing that it was a thief, the onlookers immediately lost interest, leaving only Knight Lerin and three core members of the Poor People's Assembly.

"I want to thank you, Lemon. Your name is Lemon, right?" the old knight then asked. When the other party nodded, he said, "This may affect the next trip. I hope you can keep it secret for us."

Renly nodded again when he heard this, and then suddenly asked: "Will there be a battle?"

"Perhaps," answered the old knight.

"I want to participate too!"

A bearded man behind the knight smiled and said, "The Star Warriors welcome all devout believers to join, Big Lemon."

He looked very enthusiastic, but unfortunately Renly's goal was not to join the Poor People's Gathering, so he shook his head and said: "I want to join the Warrior's Sons!"

These words were very straightforward, causing the three of them to burst into laughter. The old knight at the head also shook his head helplessly, thinking that this man lacked common sense, so he gave a kind reminder.

"Only knights can join the Warrior Sons, Lemon. This is the church's rule. You can't join just because you want to."

Renly heard this and immediately said: "I can become a knight."

"You can't be a knight just because you want to, kid." The bearded man replied.

However, this was exactly what Renly wanted. His purpose was not to find a traitor, but to attract the attention of the old knight.

Now that he had done this, he also brought the topic to what he wanted.

So he answered blankly: "My grandfather was a knight, why can't I be a knight?"

This made the three members of the poor gathering laugh again.

"Knights are not inherited." Another tall and thin man smiled and said: "If we can inherit, we can become a knight now."

Most young people dream of becoming a knight when they are young, and they always have a kind of extravagant hope to become a knight, so Renly's current behavior is actually very normal, just lacking common sense.

The old knight was a little interested when he heard this.

"You said your grandfather was a knight?"

He asked: "What's his name?"

Renly was relieved when he saw this, and on the surface he immediately answered a name that he had thought about for a long time.

"His name is Paiwen, Paiwen Osgrey."

After the words fell, the old knight opposite was stunned.
