Not knowing whether the Duke of Connaught would rebel - this uncertainty made the envoy feel unprecedented pressure and at the same time quite scared...
If you are unlucky, you might die directly in the Duchy of Connaught...
Therefore, the envoys, who were under unprecedented pressure and full of fear, did not let go of any spare time. Whenever they had free time, they thought about how to persuade the Duke of Connaught to send troops to rescue Pendragon.
While thinking about how to persuade the Duke of Connaught, I also thought about how to escape for my life if the Duke of Connaught rebelled...
Blah blah blah! !
The rain is getting heavier and heavier.
The heavy rain made it difficult for the envoy to concentrate and think.
——Goddamn it! Can't the rain be lighter? !
The envoy looked at the dense rain curtain outside the shade of the trees and cursed secretly in his heart.
Because his attention was not on thinking at this time, the envoy accidentally heard the chatter of several guards nearby:
"I hate heavy rain like this."
"Huh? Why?"
"Yes, why? I like rainy days very much, especially rainy days in summer. Rainy days in summer are the most comfortable."
"Huh, you guys don't even know the horror of a rainstorm!"
The envoy became somewhat interested in the topic of the guards at this time, so he listened attentively.
"I have seen the horror of heavy rain!"
"When I was very young, there was a rainstorm as big as this rain in my hometown."
"I still remember that heavy rain very clearly, because that heavy rain triggered something quite scary. Do you know what it was?"
"What?" The guards who acted as audience asked in unison.
The envoy's curiosity was aroused by this guard, and he concentrated his energy, waiting for the answer from the guard who had experienced "the horror of heavy rain".
And the guard didn't keep everyone waiting, and quickly revealed the answer——
"mudslide."
The guard said solemnly.
"My hometown is built at the foot of a big mountain."
"The heavy rain triggered a landslide on the mountain, and a large amount of mud, sand and stones were washed out by the rain. The mud, sand and stones mixed with rainwater rushed towards the village at the foot of the mountain like waves."
"The village was directly swallowed up by this mudslide."
"Most of the villagers were swallowed up by the mudslide before they even had time to realize what happened."
"Our family was also lucky. My parents and I happened to go to the next village to visit my married sister that night, so we escaped the mudslide."
“When I returned to the village the next morning, it was no longer there.”
“I will never forget the sight that greeted my eyes when I returned to the village the next morning—where there should have been a village, there was no longer a village, and it turned into a thick layer of mud and sand.”
After quietly listening to the guard telling his story, everyone in the audience, including the envoy, couldn't help but swallow.
"Hahaha..." A guard who was listening to the story carefully laughed a few times, "This story is really scary... especially listening to such a story on such a rainy day..."
"I said -" at this time, another guard answered, "Should we change our station? I just discovered now - we seem to be stationed at the foot of a big mountain..."
After saying that, the guard pointed forward.
Everyone, including the envoy, also looked in the direction pointed by the guard's finger - a dark mountain stood quietly not far from them.
This mountain is so high that when you raise your head to the top, you can barely see the top of the mountain.
Looking at the dark mountain not far away, and recalling the story just told by the guard, everyone, including the envoy, swallowed again.
"Your Excellency, Ambassador." One of the guards suggested to the envoy, "Why don't we change our location? To a place far away from the mountains."
As soon as the guard finished speaking, the envoy nodded vigorously and said righteously:
"That's what I meant."
Under the order of the envoy, everyone stood up and prepared to leave and camp in a safer place.
Just then - the envoy suddenly heard a strange sound.
It's some... weird, weird sounds...
It seemed to be the sound of water, but also seemed to be the sound of thunder.
Not only the envoys, but also the guards heard this strange sound.
"Your Excellency, Ambassador." A guard frowned and said in a deep voice, "Have you heard any strange noises?"
"Yeah." The envoy also frowned, "I heard..."
For some reason, listening to this strange sound, the envoy felt an ominous premonition suddenly surge in his heart...
The strange sound became louder and louder.
As the strange sound became louder and louder, the envoys gradually realized that the strange sound was coming from the mountain beside them.
After hearing the strange sound coming from the mountain beside him, the envoy smelled a strong earthy smell.
This earthy smell is also mixed with abundant water vapor.
Everyone followed the sound.
On the mountain beside him, a large mass of unidentified black objects were approaching their location.
It was night time, and the vision was dim, so he couldn't see what the mass of unidentified black objects were.
But even if he couldn't see clearly, the envoy roughly guessed what it was.
Because he clearly saw that the large mass of unidentified black objects was liquid, like waves.
As the "waves" approached, the muffled sound like thunder became louder and louder.
The envoy now felt that all the blood in his blood vessels had solidified at this moment.
"It's a mudslide!!"
The person who shouted this sentence was the guard who just told everyone how terrible the rainstorm was.
As soon as the guard finished speaking, the envoy immediately shouted:
"Run! Run to a high place!!"
After that, the envoy pulled the reins in his hand, pulled his horse to his side, and then quickly jumped on the horse, driving the horse under his crotch to escape.
The envoy had no time to see if the other guards had mounted their horses and fled in time, because he himself was also unable to take care of himself at this time.
Although he had just shouted that he wanted to escape to a high place, he actually didn't know where the high place was.
In such a rainy day, it was not strange for mudslides to occur.
Sudden attack by the mudslide, the envoy was also confused at this time.
There was no time to identify the direction, and he only knew to flee.
The horse was very fast.
But it was not faster than the speed of the mudslide.
The mudslide was closing the distance between the envoy and others at a very fast speed.
The envoy only heard the roar of the mudslide getting louder and louder behind him, and the screams behind him getting louder and louder...
Although the envoy had squeezed the potential of the horse under his crotch to the extreme, he still couldn't get rid of the mudslide behind him...
In the end, the envoy was swallowed up by the mudslide like his guards...
This envoy group went to the Duke of Connaught to negotiate with the Duke of Connaught and borrow troops, and was completely destroyed by the mudslide...
