The Rise of Iceland

Chapter 21: Down 1 rake

     Not long after, Olaf took the mayor and tax collector of Will Village, Arn Olin, and seven or eight males back to the birch forest.

Arn Olin greeted Hadar first, and then ordered people to lift the dead Ozul, put it on a carriage, and then politely said to Hadar: "Hadar, the murder is my Will. Village, please go to the Governor’s Mansion with me. It’s just a robber. Let’s clarify the matter. You and I will not be responsible. Maybe you can still get some compensation."

   Hadar nodded, first unloaded the wooden frame on the horseback and mounted it on the back of Olaf's horse, and then ordered Olaf to go home first, and he followed Arn Olin and his group to Dagang.

   Olaf knew that Arn Olin and others did the certification. According to Icelandic law, his father and the others explained the situation to the governor and it was all right, so he took the horse back home slowly.

   When he got home, Olaf first moved the guns and ammunition into the house before seeing his mother come back.

   Seeing Olaf came back by herself, Katrin asked about Hadar. Olaf explained the situation. Katrin frowned and asked, "Your father didn't recognize who that person was?"

   "No." Olaf shook his head.

   Katelyn wiped her hands with a linen cloth, and glanced at the sky at noon, the sun was shining, and the fog dispelled.

   "If you don't know it, it's not a vendetta. No investigation is needed. Maybe you can come back tonight." Catlin smiled and turned to cook.

   Olaf went back to the room to talk to his younger brother and sister, and then had a meal of fried fish.

   At night, he didn't see Hadar coming back. Olaf began to feel uneasy. He was always worried that the assassination was not as simple as robbery, but the fact was that Hadar killed the murderer in a counterattack. This kind of thing must be reported by the Governor.

  If my father is gone, there will be other crises in case someone wants to do things again.

   The more he thought about it, the more worried he got. Olaf went to tell his mother Katlyn about his concern. Katlyn was about to put the two children to sleep, and after hearing what Olaf said, he walked outside, her face uncertain.

   "The murderer may have been discharged by Siegfors! If he and the governor unite, your father might really be in trouble. Go, go to Yot!"

   While talking, Karina took Olaf to Jot's house, shouting a few times to call Jot out.

   "Yote! This morning..."

  Katrin explained the situation. Yotte's face changed, and he turned around and ran to the stables to lead the horse, and said in a hurry, "Katrin, you are at home to watch the children! I will take Olaf to Dagang!"

  Katrin and Thom sent Yotte and Olaf out on two horses, and suddenly reminded: "If you have trouble, don't forget to call Hoskard!"

"Do not worry!"

   Yotte’s puffy voice faded away.

   Olaf did not dare to slow down while riding a horse at night, and rushed to Dagang before midnight.

   There were guards on the pier and the central area of ​​Dagang at night. Yotte took Olaf and led the horse to ask the guard Hadar about the situation, but the guard ignored the two.

Hoskurd suddenly appeared, pulled the two of them and left, turned around an alley before standing still, his face was ugly, his eyes flashed under the moonlight, and his tone of voice was low: "Why are you here?! I'm going to the village of Herut. I happened to see you!"

   "What? What happened to my father?" Olaf's heart sank and asked.

Hoskard sighed: "I only learned this afternoon. Hadar brought a group of people and a corpse to the Governor's Mansion in the afternoon. He said that someone intercepted and killed him in the morning. He killed that person when he fought back. The Governor may inquire. After the crowd, let people come to identify the deceased, and prepare to let your father go home..."

"But at dusk, my mind suddenly changed. The Governor sent guards to arrest Hadar, saying that he was fighting and fighting with the dead man named Ozul. He killed the man by mistake, but lied and framed others. Tomorrow, he will summon the three elders. And several district leaders are preparing to sentence your father to sentence!"

   "What's going on!" Yotte panicked.

   Olaf gritted his teeth and said: "It must be Siegforth! I guess he sent the person who intercepted my father, and now the Governor changed his attitude too!"

Yotte turned around, stomped his foot, and sternly said: "Forget it! If tomorrow is to be sentenced, Hadar will have to be exiled to the glacier to die! I'm going to Hudik now, Hoskurd, you go to Kadir, let's Rob Hadar tomorrow and betray Iceland!"

"Okay!" Hoskurd agreed first, then frowned and said in a low voice, "Tomorrow, if you want to rob Hadar, you will have to deal with the Governor's 100 guards. Those guards are all personal soldiers of the Dan family. They are well-versed in the battle. Twenty are Musketeers. How can we rescue Hadar?"

  Yote thought of the hundred guards of the Governor of Iceland, his mind instantly cooled down, and he said anxiously, "What can I do? If the verdict is true tomorrow, he can't be saved!"

   Olaf scratched his head and stepped forward and said, "Don't worry! I'll go to Elder Amiye. If he says something good for his father tomorrow, he might be saved!"

   "What if it's not saved?" Hoskard asked, "When the guards press Hadar to the glacier, he will have to freeze into a popsicle in a day!"

   Olaf flashed a fierce look in his eyes, and said with a dumb voice: "If there is no help, we can't do it in Dagang tomorrow! Wait until the guards **** his father on the way to intercept and kill the guards, save his father, and then flee Iceland!"

   "Okay!" Both Yotte and Hoskard nodded ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ Olaf, you are right, just do it! "

  The tormented Olaf trio muttered for a long time, and then the three of them first went to see Amiye. After seeing Amiye begging, he said that he would speak for Hadar, but if the governor made up his mind, he might not change the outcome.

   After the three of Olaf thanked them, they went to Hoskud’s home to rest, and until the next morning Hoskud sent Kalm and Karhu to find out the news.

   Carl Hu, who was doing miscellaneous work at the Governor's Mansion, returned within an hour.

"I heard from my teacher Harry Taxation Officer that Sigfors and his wife were crying to the Governor at dusk yesterday. They said that the dead man was called Ozul, the brother of Sigfors's wife, who had been living in northern Iceland. Living in Clay District, yesterday I heard that the governor went to Hadar without reversing the murder of his nephew, and his uncle questioned him. As a result, the two were killed by Hadar during the fight..."

   "Now that the governor is convinced of what the Siegfuss said, he has ordered a trial meeting in the afternoon to exile Hadar to Vatnajökull..."

   The news that Karl Hu brought back made Olaf and the others understand the ins and outs of the matter.

   "Ozul is the one sent by Siegfus to intercept Hadar!" Hoskurd is not tall, but his tone is high, and he coldly snorted, "We have to prepare early!"

   Yue Fei nodded, and said, "Time is not waiting for anyone. I can't wait for the outcome of the trial. I'm going to find someone now, and I can come back tomorrow afternoon. You are here to guard, let's get ready to intercept Hadar!"

   Olaf pulled Yot and whispered: "I have ten muskets in my house. You can bring them here. You should be able to use them!"

  Yote had heard that Hadar had bought ten muskets in Hongrod’s place before. He was not surprised when he heard that, so he hurriedly led the horse and left.
