Pirate Traveling Merchant

Chapter 227 The King’s Prank

The soldiers of the King's Army who met their friends in the rebel army questioned their superiors one after another when they returned to the camp.

"Sir, why are they laughing all the time?" Some soldiers who still didn't know the whole story asked.

But before those people could get any answers, they were gathered together and sent to a warehouse to be imprisoned.

The reason given by the top brass of the King's Army for these disappeared people was that the King planned to answer their questions personally and summoned them.Those who stay need to continue to exterminate the rebels.Naturally, everyone was dissatisfied with such a reason, but due to the intimidation of their parents and their instinct to obey orders as soldiers, they could only choose to continue fighting.

On the battlefield, because both sides retreated in a hurry, there were still many wounded left here.

Nolan and the three of them came here after the army left, but it was not their common desire to come here.But Sidon rushed over first, and Nolan and the others had no choice but to follow.

Sidon's reason for coming to the battlefield was very simple, that is, to treat those who were still alive as soon as possible.

Although they arrived as quickly as possible, most of the people left on the battlefield were corpses.The injured were rescued by their comrades when the troops retreated.

Therefore, at this time, there was no other sound except the blazing flames on the battlefield.

Looking at the devastated plain, Nolan said: "As I said, there are no more living people here, so don't waste your efforts on Sidon."

"Look again, maybe there are still people alive." Sidon still did not give up and continued to search.

The tragic situation here made Sidon's heart sting several times.He felt so uncomfortable. Although there was no one he knew here, he still couldn't help but shed tears when he looked at the faces of the people who fell here.

Nolan shut his mouth knowingly. War is cruel to everyone.He said those words just because he didn't want to see the horror of the battlefield up close.

Feng and Nolan followed Sidon silently. Sidon kept running around the battlefield. He checked everyone he could see along the way to see if the other person was still alive.

But every time he put people down in disappointment, those people had lost their breath.

I don’t know how long it took, maybe only ten minutes, but to Nolan and the others, it felt like several hours had passed. Every minute and second here was a kind of torture for them.

Just when Sidon was about to give up, he suddenly heard a very faint sound from far away. This was the only sound that Nolan and the others heard except the sound of burning flames when they came here.

Sidon said excitedly: "Did you hear it?"

Nolan nodded, "Yes, at two o'clock."

The three of them hurriedly ran in the direction of the source of the sound.

As they got closer, Nolan could clearly hear what the sound was. It was human laughter, but the laughter was very small. If Nolan and the others hadn't had extremely strong hearing, ordinary people wouldn't have noticed it. .

When Nolan and the others came to the place where the sound came from, all they saw was a mound of dirt.

"In the dirt."

Nolan said and started digging. Sidon hurried up to help, while Feng stood at a higher place and observed the surrounding situation in case someone suddenly came here, mistook them for enemies and launched an attack.

After a while, Nolan and Sidon dug out the people buried in the soil.

Rescued people, rebel people.

Even though this man had a big hole in his stomach, he still had a smile on his face.

Nolan frowned slightly, "Why are you laughing again? What is going on with the people in this country."

Although he said this, Nolan still took out the medical supplies and started to give first aid.Sidon cleaned up the man's face, revealing a very young face, looking like a teenager.

"Ha...ha...ha...haha" Although the young man was about to die, he was still smiling intermittently.

"Stop laughing, hey, wake up and we'll save you right away." Sidon and Nolan began to provide first aid together. He helped hold down the blood that was constantly gushing out, while Nolan was treating the wound.

Feng took one look at the young man's injuries and said, "It's hopeless."

"No, there is still hope." Sidon immediately retorted.

Although Nolan was treating him, he knew that this man was hopeless.

The blood quickly stained their hands red. After treating them for a while, Nolan still couldn't treat the wound properly.

Nolan sat weakly on the ground and said to Sidon who was still holding the wound: "There is nothing we can do, Sidon."

Sidon didn't listen at all, but still tried hard to cover the wound with a cloth, mumbling.

"There is still help, there is still help..."

Nolan grabbed Seton's shoulders and shouted: "This man is hopeless, please calm down."

Sidon looked at Nolan blankly, his mouth slightly open, not knowing what to say.

"Let's first ask this person if he has anything else to say." Nolan looked at the young man's face sadly.

Nolan's face looked a little ugly. When they were rough in treating him, the young man did not make any screams. Instead, he continued to laugh, but the laughter was louder and smaller.If it were normal times, Nolan would definitely think that this person is crazy, but in this case, this person can still laugh, which means there is a big problem.

Nolan leaned into the young man's ear and said: "Tell me, while you are still alive, if you have anything to say, we will try our best to bring your words to the person you want to convey it to."

But the young man did not respond to Nolan and continued to smile.

He has now entered an unconscious state, and he cannot sense or hear anything around him.

"You can still laugh after things like this, what happened to the people in this country." Nolan frowned, he really couldn't understand this situation of the young man.

Feng also walked down, his eyes a little cold, "Maybe it's brainwashing."

"Brainwashing? Is it the revolutionary army?" Nolan raised his head and asked.

Sidon, who seemed a little dull, suddenly raised his head and looked at Feng with bloodshot eyes.

Feng shook his head, "Probably not. Such deep brainwashing usually starts from childhood."

"If it's an education problem in this country, it should be nationwide, but the people on the other side of the dock don't keep smiling like them." Nolan said doubtfully.

"That's not clear." Feng said lightly.

Sidon suddenly held the young man's face and shouted: "Wake up, what happened to you, and why are you laughing all the time."

No matter how loudly Sidon spoke, the young man did not respond to him.The young man's pupils had completely lost their luster, and he was looking into the distance aimlessly, waiting for the eternal darkness to fall.

"Hahaha"

The weak laughter coming from the young man's mouth made Sidon even more irritated. He punched the ground with his fist and said angrily: "What the hell is going on."

At this moment, the young man seemed to have come back to his senses, his eyes regained a glimmer of light, and he said weakly: "Damn... the damn king, the damn king's prank."

After saying this, the young man died of anger.

The three Nolans looked seriously at the deceased young man. The young man's eyes were wide open, and he obviously refused to die in peace.

Gently closing the young man's eyes with his hand, Nolan said solemnly: "I think the root cause of this riot is probably the king's prank that this person said."

Nolan picked up the young man's body and said, "Let's go, let's take him back and ask him what the king's prank is."
