绰号“金眼皮格尔”的奴隶贩子被带了进来,这是一个身材肥硕但却眼神精明的男人,就像这个时代的大多数奴隶贩子一样,他在身上挂满了庸俗的装饰和毫无意义的图章印绶-奴隶贩子通常都很有钱,其财富有时候甚至可以和小贵族相比,然而在各国律法以及大部分教会的传统观念里,贩卖奴隶会令自身灵魂肮脏,因此哪怕再有钱的奴隶贩子也不被允许拥有贵族身份,哪怕捐钱当个“空头爵士”或者“名誉骑士”都不行,所以这些财富满仓的家伙都喜欢在身上挂一堆华丽的装饰以及自己设计的印绶来彰显身份,同时聊以**。Butwith„gold/metaleye”togetherbytaking to bring inalsotwoserf, a man and a woman, theironewas dead serf„Sam”elder brother, onewas a younger sister, thisbrother and sisterthreepeoplewere soldheretogether, howeverhas not hadhot soupfoodwith enough time, theirbrothersthendiedin the wharf.
而和“金眼”一起被带进来的还有两名农奴,一男一女,他们一个是死去农奴“山姆”的兄长,一个则是妹妹,这兄妹三人被一同卖到这里,然而还没来得及吃上一口热汤饭,他们的兄弟便死在了码头上。Howeveronthatbrother and sister'sface, the fearandnervoushas actually pressedthispropersadsorrowfulsentimentcompletely.
然而在那兄妹两人的脸上,恐惧与紧张却完全压过了本应有的悲戚哀痛之情。Losing the brothersis no doubt sad, butis worthfrightenedmayarriveinliving personpenalty- theyclearlyknow, andapproves a fact, thatserfinaristocrateyesis not a person, a slaveexplodedin the wharf, thisregarding the aristocratisunforgivableloss- he was not only short of a slave, but alsodirtyground.
失去兄弟固然悲伤,但更值得恐惧的是有可能降临在活人身上的惩罚-他们清楚地知道,并且认同一个事实,那就是在贵族眼中的农奴并不算人,一个奴隶在码头上爆炸了,这对于贵族而言是不可饶恕的损失-他不但少了一个奴隶,而且还脏了地面。Thereforetheyare fearing, was worryingwill soon arriveinoneselfanger, moreovertheythink that Feudal Lordcalledoneselfalsotopunish, ifrequestedtwopeopleto dothreepeopleexactly were also good, trulywhattheywere worriedwaswhipswithhungrily, inthisage, thesetwothingsmightwant the life of making mistakesslave.
所以他们恐惧着,担忧着即将降临在自己身上的怒火,而且他们认为领主把自己叫过来也正是为了惩罚,如果只是要求两个人干三个人的活也就好了,他们真正担心的是鞭笞和饥饿,在这个年代,这两种事情都有可能会要了犯错奴隶的命。Butthatnamed„gold/metaleyelidGhale” the slave traderis in the fearsimilarly, andhisfear, becausethatwas transformedbyevil spellasserf of living specimenbombishebrings, hangs all over the gold and silver of whole body unable to makethisplumpmanhaveslightly the security sense, heknows that oneselfiswhatstatus, knows that inhaving the situation of accuratereason, Dukemustexecute a slave traderis how simplematter: Atthismatter, no onewill defendhim.
而那个叫“金眼皮格尔”的奴隶贩子同样处于恐惧之中,并且他的恐惧更甚,因为那名被邪术转化为活体炸弹的农奴正是他带过来的,挂满全身的金银并不能让这个肥硕的男人有丝毫安全感,他知道自己是什么身份,也知道在有确切理由的情况下,一个公爵要处死一个奴隶贩子是多么简单的事:在这件事上,谁都不会为他辩护的。„Gold/MetaleyelidGhale?”Gawainopened the mouth, opens the mouthto makethatwhole bodyhang all overgold/metalPianyincakelooks atto frightenwith the burial figures of warriors and horsesbigfattytrembles, „serf is Samyoubrings?”
“金眼皮格尔?”高文开口了,一开口就让那个浑身挂满金片银饼看着跟个兵马俑似的大胖子吓得一哆嗦,“农奴山姆是你带来的?”„Is......, Lord,”Phikalterrifiednod, „, butIabsolutelydo not havemaliceLord! Inot possibleto have the relationwithwhatevil spellmasterEvil Cultist! Iam only an honestbusinessman, has not madeanything......”
“是……是的,大人,”皮格尔惶恐地点头,“但我绝对没有歹意啊大人!我也不可能跟什么邪术师邪教徒有联系啊!我只是个老老实实的生意人,从没做过什么……”Long sword of Knight Philipinbelt/bringsheathwith the handstrikes the ground: „Asked that youranythingyouansweredanything!”菲利普骑士用手中带鞘的长剑敲打地面:“问你什么你就答什么!”Phikalhurriesto shut up, lowers the headlooks atoneselfshoespoint, Gawaincontinuesto ask: „Whatperson the deadbeforebeing broughtwithhas contacted? Whateatsto usewhat? Whatunusualityhas?”
皮格尔赶紧闭嘴,低头看着自己的鞋尖,高文则继续问道:“死者在被带来之前都和什么人接触过?吃过什么用过什么?有什么异常?”Pittmanhas examinedmagic of thisslave traderto respond,had not discoveredDruidmagic spellremainsaura, but the opposite partylike thisis also unlikelyis the Evil Cultistwinding, heverypossible, when the spear/guncauses, this pointGawaincanjudge.皮特曼已经检测过这名奴隶贩子的魔法反应,未发现德鲁伊法术的残留气息,而对方这样子也不大可能是邪教徒的下线,他很可能只是被当枪使,这一点高文还是能判断出来的。Phikalwipes away sweat: „Returns...... returns toLord, serfhasembarksbeforehandseveraldaysto closein the houses, eatenusing is like others, same......”
皮格尔擦着汗:“回……回大人,农奴被带上船之前的几天都是关在房舍里的,吃的用的都跟其他人一样,都一样……”„Youmostsaid the truth,”AmberstoodinGawainbehind, backs upespeciallywith the borrowed majesty of the tiger, but alsosaid that while in the revolutionsbegan the smalldagger, „herehadMagician, hadDruid, shadowbiggrandmaster! Even ifwepull out the interrogation to accomplishyoursoul- do not annoytroublesome.”
“你最好说实话,”琥珀站在高文身后,特狐假虎威地帮腔,还一边说一边转着手里的小匕首,“我们这里有魔法师,有德鲁伊,还有暗影大宗师!我们哪怕把你的灵魂抽出来审问都是能办到的-别惹麻烦。”Gawaincast asidethisHalf-Elfonecalmly, buthas not seen throughtalking nonsense of thisfellow, butinoppositePhikalalready the beanbigbeads of sweatcontinuously, the cold sweatwith the interstellarHansectplayermetsoldiercontinually a line: Regardingdoes not understand the magicaverage person, actuallycannot distinguish clearly the difference of eachextraordinaryprofessionfrom the start, does not know that soulmagic spelliswhatdomain, wrapped in a shroud of obscurityMagic based Classesmostlyis omnipotentinthem, Amberspoke thoughtlessly the threat that fruitfullymade up wild storiesinhishere.高文不动声色地撇了这个半精灵一眼,但也没拆穿这家伙的胡说八道,而在对面的皮格尔则已经豆大的汗珠连绵不断,冷汗就跟星际韩宗选手接兵似的连成了一条线:对于不懂魔法的普通人而言,其实压根就分不清各个超凡职业的区别,也不知道灵魂法术到底是什么领域,神秘莫测的法系职业在他们心里多半是无所不能的,琥珀随口胡诌的威胁在他这里卓有成效。„Is...... LordIspeaks the truth!”Phikalhurriesto reply,„actually...... actuallythatserfnamedSamisa littlespecial......”
“是……大人我说实话!”皮格尔慌忙回答,“其实……其实那个叫山姆的农奴是有点特殊……”Gawainknocks the table: „Special?”高文敲敲桌子:“特殊?”„Yes, heis I am setto deliver to Viscount Andrewcastleto workoriginally,”Phikalsaidaltogether, „, butyousendKnightLord on town/subduesto purchasevariousslaveswith a higherpricemassively, myslavenumberon handare not many, therefore...... therefore......”
“是的,他原本是我预定送到安德鲁子爵的城堡里干活的,”皮格尔一股脑说了出来,“但您派到镇上的骑士老爷用更高的价格大量收购各种奴隶,我手头的奴隶数量不多,所以……所以……”„Thereforeyoucanfeed incastleserfto draworiginallyto serve as a stopgap?”Gawainis knitting the brows, „why can serffeed incastle?”
“所以你就把原定要送进城堡的农奴拉来充数了?”高文皱着眉,“为什么农奴要送进城堡?”„Samishands and feetdiligentandflexibleserf, hewill do the farm worknot only, will feed the horseandcleans the livestockawning, Viscount Andrewhappen towants a newservant......”Phikalto break off the fingersadly, „thistohim is also an outlet- mustknow, serf in myhandcanbeserf, canbe the slave laborer, canbe the indentured servant, iftomanorial lordonforeverisserf, but if canfeed incastle, thatwill perhaps also turn into the servant......”
“山姆是个手脚勤快又灵活的农奴,他不光会干农活,也会喂马和打扫畜棚,安德鲁子爵正好要个新奴仆……”皮格尔难过地掰着手指,“这对他也是条出路-要知道,农奴在我手上的时候可以是农奴,可以是奴工,也可以是契约奴,但一旦到了庄园主手上就永远是农奴了,可要是能送进城堡,那说不定还会变成仆人……”„ButKnight Byronhad/leftfoursilver coins, youpulled backto transporton the slaveshipSam,”GawaininterruptedPhikal'swords, andturned the headto lookto the Samtwobrother and sister, „youraise the head, need notnervous- beforehere, whatdifferenceyourbrothershad?”
“但拜伦骑士多出了四个银币,你就把山姆拉回到了运奴船上,”高文打断了皮格尔的话,并转头看向山姆的两个兄妹,“你们抬起头来,不用紧张-在来这里之前,你们那位兄弟有什么异样么?”Intwo people the elder brothercourage seems to be bigger, firstopens the mouthto reply: „Having, Samhehas saidfor several daysheis very sleepy, moreoverspokeoftentold only half that did not say, sometimeswill also be standingsuddenlyfalling asleep.”
两人中的兄长胆子似乎大一些,首先开口回答:“有,山姆他这些天一直说他很困,而且说话经常说到一半就不说了,有时候还会突然站着睡着。”Gawainlooked upPittmanone, on the latterfacereallyhasexpressionlooking pensive, laterthisoldDruidopens the mouth: „When does thissituationfromappear?”高文抬头看了皮特曼一眼,后者脸上果然带着若有所思的表情,随后这位老德鲁伊开口了:“这种情况是从什么时候出现的?”Thatemaciatedyounger sisterserfopened the mouth: „Sevendays...... eitherareeightdays ago, in any casenotovertendays.”
那个面黄肌瘦的农奴妹妹开口了:“七天……要么就是八天前,反正不超过十天。”Cannotcount onthem the clearspecifictime.
不能指望他们记清楚具体的时间。Gawaininquired that standsinownanother sideHetty: „When does Byronbuy the slavenewsin the Tanzan Townissueis?”高文询问站在自己另一边的赫蒂:“拜伦在坦桑镇发布购奴消息是什么时候?”
The Hettycomplexionis serious, shehas thought ofsomepossibilities: „Fourdays ago.”赫蒂脸色严肃,她已经想到了些可能性:“四天前。”„In other words, serfSambeforeByronarrives inTanzan Townhas the difference, at that time may be very controlledbyevil spell, buthemustbe delivered to Viscount Andrewcastle......”Gawainis saying, whileobserves the situationall aroundslowly, „hewas delivered tohereto cometo be only an accident/surprise.”
“也就是说,农奴山姆在拜伦抵达坦桑镇之前就已经有了异样,那时候很可能就被邪术控制了,而他原本是要被送到安德鲁子爵的城堡里的……”高文一边说着,一边缓缓环视四周,“他被送到这里来只是个意外。”Hettybreathes deeply: „Perhapsourneighborsmusthavetroublesome.”赫蒂深吸口气:“我们的邻居恐怕要有麻烦了。”„Histrouble, quickwill turn intoourtroubles,”Gawainsaidslowly,„All Things Finally Die Societystems fromDruid, theirevil spellevolveto comeby the lifeandnaturalstrengthfactionmagic spell, the living person is not only theirmagic spellmaterials, wasmanyevil spellplaguecarrier, the Tanzan Townpopulation were too more, was also too neartous...... but alsono matter what, Knight ByronalsokeptTanzan Town, hehas not sent inanynewsto the present, wecannotputhimare not managing.”
“他的麻烦,很快就会变成我们的麻烦,”高文慢慢说道,“万物终亡会起源于德鲁伊,他们的邪术都是以生命与自然力量派系的法术演变而来,活人不但是他们的法术材料,更是很多邪术瘟疫的载体,坦桑镇人口太多了,离我们也太近了……而且不管怎样,拜伦骑士还留在坦桑镇,他到现在也没发来任何消息,我们不能把他放着不管。”Hettyworriesvery muchlooksonlyDruidtoFeudal Territory: „Pittman, do youthinkthemin the Tanzan Towndispersionplague? Feeds incastle the infected person, being more likemustcope withFeudal Lord......”赫蒂很是忧心地看向领地上唯一一个德鲁伊:“皮特曼,你认为他们会在坦桑镇散布瘟疫么?把感染者送进城堡,更像是要对付领主……”„Very difficult saying that the Evil Cultistbrainstructurewas differentfrom the normal person, the essential components of theirbrainwere the mud of rottenmeat sauceandin the sewers,”Pittmanserioussaid,„mustcomplete the worstplan.”
“很难说,邪教徒的脑子结构跟正常人不一样,他们大脑的主要成分是烂肉酱和阴沟里的泥,”皮特曼一脸严肃地说道,“必须做好最坏打算。”„Here the support of Kingdom, can only onus,”Gawainstand up, „mustloseto controlbeforehandto solve the sourcein the matter. Butnowdoes not have the meansto determine that ourenemieshavemany, strong.”
“这里等不来王国的支援,只能我们自己上,”高文站起身,“必须在事情失去控制之前解决掉源头。但现在没办法确定我们的敌人有多少,有多强。”Pittmanopens the mouth: „ThisaspectIcanestimateprobably. Sam‚Returning Dead Summon’was transformedbyevil spellas the living specimenbomb, according toat that time the mightas well asremainedaurato judgeafterward,uses/givestechniquedid not surpassmiddle rank, mightjustreach the 5th LevelDark Druidlevelvery much, moreoverpopulationnotmany- All Things Finally Die Societyfeworganizationspeciallylarge-scaleactions, particularlywhendid the destructionto the cities, theysend out1-2capablemembers, depended upon the deceitfulschemeandstrangeevil spellcauses the speciallybigdestruction.”皮特曼开口了:“这方面我可以大概估计一下。山姆是被邪术‘归亡召唤’转化为活体炸弹的,根据当时威力以及事后残留气息判断,施术者不超过中阶,很有可能刚刚达到五级黑暗德鲁伊的水平,而且人数不会多-万物终亡会很少组织特别大规模的行动,尤其是在对城镇搞破坏的时候,他们都是派出1-2精干成员,依靠狡诈的计谋和诡异的邪术来造成特别大的破坏。”Gawainis hesitating: „Thereforewemustfacepossiblyis only1-25th Levelor5th Levelfollowingevil spellmaster, the quantityis not the issue, trulywhatmustbe worriedisDark Druidthesestrangemagic spell, in the worst situation, Viscount Andrewmight evenbe controlledbyevil spell, controlling the living creature will also bethathelps the Dark Druidspecialty.”高文沉吟着:“所以我们要面对的可能只是1-2五级或五级以下的邪术师,数量不是问题,真正要担心的是黑暗德鲁伊那些诡异的法术,最糟糕的情况下,安德鲁子爵甚至有可能会被邪术控制,控制活物也是那帮黑暗德鲁伊的拿手好戏。”After the shortsilentness, Gawainflows the cold sweatclass/flowquickdehydration„gold/metaleyelidGhale”has first beckoned with the handtothat: „Youcanwalk, butIsuggested that youare not bestrecentlyclose toTanzan Town, toward the north side.”
在短暂的静默之后,高文首先对那个已经流冷汗流的快脱水的“金眼皮格尔”摆了摆手:“你可以走了,但我建议你近期内最好别靠近坦桑镇,往更北边去吧。”
The slave traderlefttremblingly, remainingpair of serfbrother and sisterlowering the headstandin the ground, theirnervoushas soon fainted.
奴隶贩子颤颤巍巍地离开了,剩下一对农奴兄妹低着头站在地上,他们紧张的已经快要晕倒。HoweverGawainactuallydoes not knowtheyare thinkinganything: Even if there is memory of inheriting, stayedinthistimeeven if for severalmonths, hedoes not have the meansto achieve the completesubstitutionandunderstood that the thought of thisworldperson, hecannot think that thisbrother and sisterwere punishedin the worry, butopens the mouthto comfortthemaccording toownmentality: „Yourbrothershad died, the persondiescannotcome back to life, restrains grief. Ihave let the personputs body in coffinSam...... the remains, hewill be buriedin the foresttomb, youliveonthislandswell, makesdiligentlyfreely, Cecil Familywill protectyoursecurities.”
然而高文其实并不知道他们在想什么:哪怕有着继承来的记忆,哪怕在这个时代呆了几个月,他也没办法做到完全的代入并理解这个世界人的思想,他根本想不到这兄妹俩是在担心受到惩罚,而只是按照自己的思路开口安慰他们:“你们的兄弟已经死了,人死不能复生,节哀。我已经让人收殓山姆的……遗骸,他会被葬在森林旁的墓地里,你们就在这片土地上好好生活,努力挣得自由,塞西尔家族会保护你们的安全。”
The brother and sisterwith astonishmentraise the head, looks atGawain, as if not believeoneselfheardanything.
兄妹二人惊愕地抬起头来,看着高文,仿佛不相信自己听到了什么。Althoughin the Gawainmind, hesaiddonejustfollows the simplestlogic.
尽管在高文心目中,他所说所做的只不过是遵循最简单不过的逻辑。Twoserfbrother and sisterleftin the confusionlike this, after theywalk, Ambercannot bear the opens the mouth: „Ialsothink that youwill makethembecomefree citizendirectly, treats ascompensationanything that the brothersdied.”
两名农奴兄妹就这样在困惑中离开了,等到他们走后,琥珀才忍不住开口:“我还以为你会直接让他们成自由民,当做兄弟死亡的补偿什么的。”Gawainfunnilylooks atopposite party: „Why do Iwantthis?”高文好笑地看着对方:“我为什么要这样做?”„Becauseyourbenevolencesendsgreatly,” a naturalness of Amberface, „Iknow that youwere a good person, thereforeyourbenevolencesentgreatlyis notnormal?”
“因为你善心大发啊,”琥珀一脸的理所当然,“我知道你是个好人了,所以你善心大发不是正常的么?”Gawainactuallyshakes the head: „Benevolencesendsgreatly, butcannotissue, Icannotmakethemthink that sacrificed a family membertooneselfto trade a freedom, particularlycannotletother, does not know that serfthis of inside storythinksblindly. The freedommustdepend uponboth handsto strive, Ihave designed the system of thisaspect, thereforeI must defer to the system, only by doing so, is orderly.”高文却摇摇头:“善心大发可以,但不能乱发,我不能让他们认为牺牲一个亲人就可以给自己换一份自由,尤其是不能让别的、不知内情的农奴这样瞎想。自由是必须依靠双手争取的,我已经制定了这方面的制度,所以就连我自己也必须按照制度来,只有这样,才有秩序可言。”Ambera littlelooked atGawaintwoaccidentally/surprisingly: „Thereforeyouinsisted that letstheseslavesinFeudal Territoryhere conducts for twomonths‚cushion’, moreovermakestheyfirstcontinuebyserfand so on statusworkinFeudal Territory, after mustdoenough, canbe free, rather thanannounceddirectlyliberatesallslaves?”琥珀有点意外地看了高文两眼:“所以你才坚持让那些奴隶在领地这里进行两个月的‘缓冲’,而且让他们先继续以农奴之类的身份在领地干活,必须干够了之后才能自由,而不是直接宣布解放所有奴隶?”„...... Actuallyyourunderstandinghasmanyissues, butroughlyalsogood,”Gawainsmiled, „Itrulyneedto lettheirconscious, the freedomishard-won-, butperhapsone day, Iwill also announceabolishing of slaverydirectly, rather thanone by onelike the present, smallrangechange.”
“……其实你的理解有不少问题,但大体还不错,”高文笑了起来,“我确实需要让他们意识到,自由是来之不易的-但或许有一天,我也会直接宣布奴隶制的废止,而不是像现在这样一个个的、小范围地改变。”Amberis dumbfounded: „Do you have thisidea?! When can that...... arrive?”琥珀目瞪口呆:“你还有这种想法?!那……要到什么时候?”„Child to peopleuniversalconscioustoserf and slave laborer can also round of Big FireballKinggets rid of,”Gawainspeaks thoughtlessly saying that „, butnow, wediscuss the Tanzan Townissue.”
“到人们普遍意识到农奴与奴工之子也可以一发大火球把国王干掉的时候,”高文随口说道,“而现在,我们还是讨论讨论坦桑镇的问题吧。”
