Chapter 339: The Little Tiger’s View of Love
Translator: Lonelytree
Southeast of the oak forest, the two sides of the official road in the farm area were bustling with activity.
The news of the visitors from Deep Blue Harbor spread like wildfire, attracting a group of residents who loved to watch the show.
Most of them gathered at the bridgehead and the end of the Golden Lion
Bridge. It was one of the few bridges in Rolling Stone Town, and it was built by Rheagar’s father’s generation. It was said that on the day it was built, a lion emitting golden light suddenly appeared and drank water at the bridgehead.
Hence the name.
Several tall water banyan trees were planted on the shore of Golden Lion’s bridgehead.
In the midsummer evening, many people enjoyed the shade under the banyan tree.
The ” Old Woman River ” that crossed the arched stone bridge formed a small shallow bay in that area. The river was smooth, and the water was not deep, so it was common to see nearby farmers swimming in the river with their children.
It was early summer afternoon.
The banyan tree was already packed with people.
Because of Peggy’s identity, Matthew’s group didn’t get too close. Instead, they found a hidden spot in the oak forest and looked from afar.
” I heard that the convoy from Deep Blue Harbor passed the checkpoint on the east side at noon. It will take them at least ten minutes to half an hour. They will definitely pass by here.”
Peggy said expectantly.
Matthew didn’t ask her where she heard about it. After all, Peggy was indeed good at gathering information. In the entire Rolling Stone Town, the only person who could surpass her in this aspect was probably Zeller, who could handle all the big and small matters in the town.
Mid-May.
The chirping of cicadas gradually sounded in the wilderness.
Under the shade of a tree.
Matthew moved a small stool and sat down.
A warm breeze brushed past his eyes and chin.
Not far away, the residents gathered together and discussed something.
Some loafers were pushing and shoving by the river. Suddenly, someone screamed, and the water splashed.
An unlucky young man was pushed into the water. He obviously knew how to swim. He flopped in the water a few times and cursed.
The crowd first gathered around nervously. After realizing that there was nothing serious, they laughed for a while.
Matthew looked at this scene silently and felt a little touched.
The dark clouds of war were approaching, but most people in Rolling Stone Town were still unaware.
Perhaps, the moment before the Red Mountain army entered the golden fertile field, the people living on that land were the same as these people.
When peace became the norm.
The scars caused by the war would become more and more obvious.
“No wonder Rheagar has been under so much pressure recently. This kind of choice is indeed not that easy to make.”
Matthew sighed softly.
He rested his elbows on his knees and rested his chin on his palm. He seemed to be looking into the distance, but his eyes gradually lost focus.
Until a strange blue flag with red clouds appeared at the end of the official road.
The people on both sides of the bridgehead cheered.
Matthew suddenly woke up.
“Coming, coming!”
Peggy looked extremely excited.
‘ Matthew, hurry up and see how beautiful the little princess of Deep Blue Harbor is. If she’s half as beautiful as Sif, we’ll take her home and make her your second wife!”
There were too many flaws in her words.
Matthew couldn’t take it.
Only Eli replied in a daze,
“Matthew already has a wife?!”
Matthew was about to explain when the sound of hooves came from the forest behind him!
“You’re really here to watch the show!”
A low voice came from the horse’s back. Matthew turned around and saw that it was the captain of the garrison, Big Beardie Blake. Blake didn’t get off his horse. Instead, he said hurriedly, “Matthew, hurry up and get on the horse with me! “Rheagar is looking for you. He looks very anxious!”
Peggy said unhappily,
“Is your lord afraid that Matthew will forget about Sif after marrying his second wife? Do you want him to go to work at such a critical moment? Will they pay overtime?
Blake smiled awkwardly. However, he had a way of dealing with fierce women like Peggy.
“I’m just a messenger.”
Matthew stretched his neck regretfully.
The convoy didn’t move fast. They would probably cross the bridgehead in five to six minutes, and it would be even slower when they reached the forest.
“I’m afraid I’ll have to take my leave first.” Matthew said to Eli apologetically.
Before Eli could reply.
Peggy put her arm around Eli’s shoulders and said,”
It’s fine. You go ahead, Matthew. I’ll take good care of your little brother.”
There was an unnatural look on Eli’s face.
“Okay, go ahead and do what you need to do.”
Matthew immediately climbed onto his horse and followed Blake in the direction of Rolling Stone Town.
Matthew’s back disappeared into the forest.
Eli struggled a little unnaturally. “Peggy? Can you relax?”
However, Peggy acted as if she did not hear him. She hugged Eli and walked towards the stone bridge at the foot of the hill.
“Let’s go! You cover me, I can use Stealth, they won’t be able to find me! We’ll go for a closer look!”
A two-meter-tall Tauren was sneaking around in broad daylight?!
This was ridiculous!
Eli wanted to yell at her.
However, for some reason, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
The two of them quickly came to the roadside.
Eli was prepared to explain if he was discovered, but he soon realized that no one around him had noticed him and Peggy! Everyone was looking forward to the convoy.
Finally.
The convoy with blue flags crossed the stone bridge at a pleasant rhythm.
At the very front were two knights who were leading the way.
After that, there were three luxurious carriages.
The carriage was moving very slowly across the bridge, and everyone could see it clearly.
The window of the first carriage was tightly shut..
