i have a shelter.

The skin has been peeled off.

Not only the tree, but also all the edible things inside the protective fence, including around the protective fence, were almost gone.Even the nearby grass is getting less and less.

If it wasn't for the seedlings in the field being carefully guarded by the soldiers, I'm afraid those that haven't grown yet will also be recruited into disaster.

However, the past few weeks have been pretty good. Although the food that the bishop assisted was not much, it quenched his burning thirst.Otherwise, half of the people in the territory would starve to death before the winter harvest.

In the distance came the figure of horseshoe bursts.It interrupted Garvey's thoughts and made his heart beat faster.He raised his eyes, quickly set aside the banners of the surrounding knights and soldiers, and cheered up.Then looked over there.

Dust and fog rolled together, and several teams of knights holding high flags rode their horses from the rolling fog. In addition to the dozen or so white-robed templars Garvey had seen, there were more than 20 Gray knight.The divine patterns on their bodies were exquisite, and their equipment was refined. Even the horses were equipped with armor and leather armor.

Seeing the radiant young bishop at the front of the line, Garvey couldn't help but feel excited.He hurriedly brought people to greet him.

"Thank God, my lord, the fog is too heavy today, I thought you lost your way, you are going to spend the night in the mountains, and you are about to send people into the mountains."

"When I passed the swamp, I was indeed delayed for a while." The bishop laughed loudly. He dismounted, handed the reins to a knight beside Garvey, and said, "But it's okay, I didn't get lost, otherwise I would have lost my way." Going to miss dinner."

The other knights had dismounted one after another at this time, and the servants took the reins and prepared to lead them into the city to take care of the horses.Some people who had met these templar knights before also smiled and greeted them proactively.

These templars didn't seem to be as domineering as they are today, and they chatted with each other not long after.

Baron Garvey and his entourage welcomed the guests into the castle, but the bishop seemed more interested in the town outside the castle.

Under his suggestion, some of the knights rested under the hospitality of the servants, and the leading Templars followed him, accompanied by Baron Garvey and the extremely knights, out of the castle.

The town was built on the border with the castle, and the architectural pattern is very close.The thousands of tall buildings were mainly built of stones, and they piled up and down the mountain along with the surrounding of the castle, almost covering half of the hill.At the same time, the road here is complicated, but as long as you see the top castle, you can confirm your position.

It's just that in this thick fog, the castle is a little too hazy

During centuries of construction, Bianhe town had tens of thousands of people living here in its most glorious time.At that time, the crowd was bustling, and the free folk who entered the city from outside would often lead some livestock.And there are voices of vendors hawking everywhere in the city.

But the former grand scene was gone at this time. Although there were still people on the road, their faces were thin and yellow, their feet were floating, and their expressions were blank.

And the houses where the wealthy families lived near the castle were already in dilapidated condition, many of them were empty, and many of them were neglected.

"There are currently 2000 people in the town, and the residential area of ​​the residents has been tightened to the vicinity of the castle." Speaking of this, Baron Garvey pointed to an area under the mountain, and some fences could be seen to isolate some buildings. "Look over there." , quite a few houses have been converted into fortifications."

"Well, it is indeed appropriate to use a part of the area as a quarantine area." The young bishop nodded after hearing this, as if he did not listen to the words of fortifications.At the same time, it also made Garvey's face a little red.

It's not considered a quarantine area. Compared with the quarantine area, although its houses are good, the environment is terrible.

However, he coughed and said, "It is inevitable that there will be many fleeing people, and some residents will often get sick. In order to prevent the plague, people who go out will stay there for a while."

"It's really not easy." The bishop nodded, not knowing what the words in his mouth meant.

But Garvey took over the words, "It's really not easy. My lord, every year as winter approaches, more and more monsters will gather. And when the tide of corpses hits, there will also be many hungry refugees flocking to the territory, but the most terrifying It’s still plague and cold winter. However, although the weather is getting worse now, fewer people are sick.”

In fact, there were indeed more and more monsters around the shelter as winter approached.It's just that the strength of the shelter grows much faster than those monsters gather, so the citizens have not felt it.

"Although the cold winter is terrible, there are still some benefits. The low temperature can kill germs. And when people get sick, they will also develop antibodies to the plague." The bishop nodded and said.

"Bacterial antibody" Garvey repeated with a dazed look.

"Ahem, well, it's a word often mentioned by one of my advisors. He comes from the Forbidden Sanctuary. You know, those wizards always say some weird things."

After hearing this, Garvey was stunned.

At this time, it has reached the edge of the residential area. The houses here are a bit low, and the architectural pattern is a bit scattered.Some shabby houses can be seen not far away.On both sides of the street, there are fences around and soldiers guarding and patrolling.But here it seems to be deliberately isolated.

"My lord, it's not very clean here. It used to be a slum area. Generally, refugees from outside will live here after inspection. So although there are no sick people here, the personnel are a bit complicated."

Garvey was talking while following the Bishop.But the adult didn't answer him, and walked in without changing his footsteps.There seems to be some curiosity there.

With a secret sigh, Baron Garvey had no choice but to cast a look at his subordinates.After the two knights saw it, they turned around and walked to the other side, while Garvey followed the adult to the inner side of the street.

0104 People in Troubled Times

After turning the corner, the eyes suddenly opened up.Although there are not too many houses that can be seen here, there are quite a few sheds.And the whole area is busier than outside.

But it was also very smelly, with a strong fishy smell.

In the other two streets connected by this area, there are also soldiers guarding and patrolling, and there are people who come and go back and forth in the rich area, but the soldiers will turn a blind eye to some people, and some people will turn a blind eye. People raised their whips to drive away.

These wealthy households who live outside the law and can come and go here at will have a status that is not a bit higher than those on the street before.In fact, many people themselves were born in noble families, and they have inextricable relationships with lords or various knights.Some of them may have important positions in their families.

Generally speaking, they belonged to various forces around the lord before the doomsday. Some were the right-hand men of the baron, and some were relatives of certain big families that even he wanted to win over.

Before the disaster, these people had enough stored materials, and after the disaster, they were least affected and even more reused.Therefore, among these people at the top of the pyramid in Bianhe Town, there are often a lot of food stored in the cellar at home.

Whenever Garvey sees these real rich people with ruddy complexions, he will sigh that there are still people living well in this small town.

He often thought about confiscating all the belongings of these people, but he knew that if he really did this, he might be strangled to death on the bed that night.

If it is said that in a small town, people who live well often come here, then those who live the worst live here.

It can be seen that there are not many people staying in the house here.And the doors of many houses were left open.Even if some doors were closed, the soldiers on patrol would kick those doors open.

"The door is not allowed to be closed during the day, my lord." Garvey explained, seeing that the lord didn't mean to ask further questions, so he didn't go any further.

In fact, there are almost no people in the house here, or very few.

Most of the people just sat at the door.And some people still have some sundries such as baskets in front of them. I don't know if there is not enough space in the house, or what.But once in a while, you can see rich people throwing some things away and taking away some baskets.

It was also a young woman who was brought back.

Most of the people here look dull, but not all of them.In addition to those wealthy households, there are also some men who are dressed as civilians and look a little stronger. They often walk around and look very energetic.

Most of these people used to be the rogue scum in the town, and they were very active before, and they are still the same now.

Occasionally, in places where these guys are often active, there will be some disputes and weak cries. It is suspected that someone is stealing something and was discovered, and it simply turned into a robbery.And sometimes I could see a few ferocious-looking people wandering out of some half-open rooms, standing at the door and tying up their loose clothes.

After seeing the guards, these guys didn't hide. Instead, they smiled and said hello, or chatted a few words.

But today seems to be a little different, because there are a few more knights in the training team.After seeing it, he kicked them in the chest and escorted these blind guys out.

Not all of these things were seen by Garvey and others.Because since they came in, the places they passed by will gradually quiet down.It's just that occasionally there will be the sound of leather whips, screams and low-pitched curses in the distance.

In fact, in normal times, the soldiers would not take much care of this kind of thing. After all, the leaders here have a good relationship with them.Some people even can't afford to mess with themselves.But today is a bit different. After the knight brought people over, no one dared to turn a blind eye or close one eye.

And some forces here have gradually received the news.And these big men among the commoners, after seeing the lord and the white-robed priest who was half a step away in front of him, dared to show their arrogance and domineering at ordinary times, let alone a glance at the lord and the priest. The guy with weak legs, after feeling the gaze swept over him, he knelt tremblingly to the ground under the angry stares of the knights.

Only the poorest poor did not respond to these visitors.

The priest seemed to turn a blind eye to all of this, and he was different from the bishops in the Holy See, the senior priests of various positions, and the priests.Never pointing fingers at things in other people's territories, just wandering here slowly.

Such an attitude also made Garvey's tense mood slowly relax, and he gradually began to talk more.

The residents could see that the lord, who was in control of his life and death, seemed to be trying to curry favor with that lord today, and tried his best to avoid making that lord feel disgusted with his territory.
