Chapter 28 The Bard

An ax was leaning on the side of the piled goods.

Chen Lun walked over and hooked it with his foot, the ax swirled and flew up, and he grabbed the handle of the ax.

Clang!

As soon as the ax went down, the copper lock on the iron cage fell to the ground with a clang.

Then he broke the locks of the other iron cages one by one, releasing the captured people inside.

"Thank you so much!"

After the men were freed, they hurriedly came to Chen Lun and bowed down to salute. Among them was the irascible old man from before, he only had sincere admiration at the moment.

Looking at the clothes of this black-haired young man, coupled with his ability to single-handedly wipe out the entire bandit camp, he must be no ordinary person. For such a strong man, even if he looks young, sincere respect for him has become an instinct.

"We are all craftsmen around here, and we are not rich. We don't know how to repay your kindness."

someone asked.

"no need."

Chen Lun waved his hand.

He originally came here to hunt down the robbers, and saving people was just a matter of convenience, but the identities revealed by these people reminded him of the item description of the iron gauntlet.

Craftsman...

"Why did these bandits arrest you?"

"This...we don't know, but they seem to have mentioned in their previous conversation that they need to build something, so they can kidnap people everywhere."

Chen Lun nodded, it made sense.

But he soon noticed that among this group of craftsmen, there was a guy who was out of place.

Blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a pointed hat with a fancy feather on the brim, wearing a cloak, with a small harp in his waist.

The most important thing is that even if this guy is dirty, he can't hide his unique temperament and handsomeness.

It's only a little bit worse than myself.

"What about you? Couldn't you be a craftsman too?"

Seeing Chen Lun's suspicious eyes on himself, Alex smiled confidently.

He strode out, put his left hand on his right chest, bowed deeply, and nodded in salute.

"Under Alexis, a great bard."

Chen Lun frowned.

I saw the blond young man raised a finger and said loudly:

"Although I am very grateful to you for lending a helping hand, Alex actually doesn't need it.

It’s not that I can’t escape, but I stayed here on purpose to observe the daily life of the robbers and draw materials for creation...

They are also a microcosm of the oppression of the empire, and I would like to write poems about it. "

"Don't listen to his nonsense!"

The irritable old man among the craftsmen suddenly shouted.

"This guy was captured by the robbers just because he boasted that he had forged artifacts!

A guy who can't even hold a hammer is so bragging, it's really an insult to us craftsmen! "

Alexis was said to have bulging veins, his face flushed, and he knelt on his hips and shouted:

"Shut up! I'm not bragging!"

"I've put up with you for a long time, big talker!"

The irritable old man rushed forward and punched Alex's pretty face, causing him to fall to the ground with bleeding from the corner of his mouth.

"asshole!"

Alex's morale was low, so he got up and fought the opponent.

However, due to the huge difference in stature, the irascible old man who has been with the hammer bellows all day long is very strong, and he knocked Alex down again with three punches and two kicks.

Chen Lun did not intervene, and watched with interest with his arms folded.

The irritable old man calmed down, took the lead and bowed to Chen Lun again.

"There are many villages near here. We forge some farm tools here to make a living. If you need it, you can come to us."

"Yes, although our technology is not as good as those in the barracks, the weapons we produce are definitely not bad!"

Chen Lun nodded with a smile, and the group of craftsmen left in a team.

He turned to look at Alex, the guy had stood up again, raised his sleeve and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"You said you forged artifacts?"

"Eh... of course!"

Alex seemed to forget the beating just now, and regained his confident look.

He brushed his blond hair, took out the little harp on his waist, and sang while playing:

"It was a two-handed sword nearly two meters long.

It is forged from the seabed metal mixed with foreign objects from the sky, plus the blood of the extreme west dragon and the fangs of the blood lord, inlaid with three-color crystals and seven-color gems.

I used it to kill the giant monster of the North Sea, and I used it to cut off the head of the Southern Nightmare Knight...

It's a pity that it was broken and lost during the battle with the overlord of the Far East..."

Papapapa...

Chen Lun applauded.

"Not bad, the singing voice is very beautiful, and the story is also very good. It seems that you are indeed suitable for this job."

"This is not a story!"

Alex became furious and stopped playing.

"Although you saved me, you can't humiliate me! This is too rude! It's not something a gentleman should do!

I want to fight you! Restore my noble dignity, Alex! "

Alex looked around, then picked up a kitchen knife on the ground. When he raised his head and was about to fight to the death with the black-haired young man, he found that the other party had turned and walked away.

"Wait! Don't go!"

Alexis chased after him in despair.

…

"Everything I say is true, why don't you believe me!?"

Alex gasped heavily.

Chen Lun glanced at him and walked forward quickly.

Alex gritted his teeth, quickened his pace, and ran back to Chen Lun.

"Hey, listen, I..."

"Okay, okay, I believe in you."

Chen Lun finally couldn't bear this guy, and said solemnly.

Alex's eyes widened, his brows brimming with joy.

"Really...really? That would be great...uh!"

He suddenly regained his confident expression and coughed twice.

Chen Lun had already concluded in his heart that this guy probably had some brain problems, so he ignored him and walked forward on his own.

Alex followed Chen Lun silently. After walking for a while, he glanced at Chen Lun and couldn't help but say:

"Hmmm, do you still want to hear the glorious story of my past?"

"You don't have to."

Chen Lun shrugged.

Alexis seemed hesitant to speak, as if he was suffering from suffocation.

"Okay, please tell me."

Chen Lun has no choice but to hope that this period of torture in the new century will end soon.

Alex seemed to activate some kind of switch, and began to sing a song vividly. In the process, he even took out a harmonica for accompaniment.

One thing to say, if you put aside his mouthful of cannons, he still sings very well.

This guy's voice has a kind of magnetism, and the timbre is loud and ethereal. Coupled with his handsome appearance, if he had a normal mind, he might be able to reap the hearts of thousands of girls.

Oh no, thousands of ladies have to be added.

Chen Lun filtered out most of the bragging embellishments, and he probably heard what Alex was singing.

It is nothing more than a story about him traveling around the world, killing evil for the people all over the world, slaying monsters and dragons and becoming a hero.

In addition to the Trisur Empire in the central and eastern parts of the continent, he also set foot in the three major dependent countries of Byron Kingdom in the north, Beelzebub Kingdom in the west, and the capital of Shuoli in the south.

He has even drifted in the endless ocean outside the mainland, and met countless terrifying opponents.

But here Chen Lun could hardly listen anymore. Fortunately, he had already walked out of the dense forest and returned to the road.

He took three steps as two steps, and quickly ran to the side of the carriage.

"Hey, do you want to be my follower? You must have admired me after hearing my story!"

Alex shouted loudly behind him.

Chen Lunquan pretended not to hear, turned his head and said something to Walsh to set off, and stepped into the carriage.

The carriage resumed driving, and Alex was still chasing after him.

"Hey! Jack! I have a lot of fans, don't you really think about it?"

He was tired of chasing, and finally chose to give up, watching the carriage drifting away on the avenue, cursing.

Chen Lun in the carriage let out a sigh of relief, and finally dumped that guy.

But at this moment, he suddenly frowned slightly.

No, I never told him my name, why would he know?
