A month of drought has made people unbearable, from animal blood to human blood, in order to survive, the standard is low and low, and there is gradually no bottom line.

Just as Arnold was about to lose his bearings, a torrential rain poured down, and the raindrops hit the ground like hailstones, smashing up pits of dust and smoke, and then all the dust and smoke were submerged in the rain, turning into muddy water to fill the original potholes.

"Ah, it's raining, it's raining!"

In the next few days, Zhi'er, who had been drinking human blood, behaved much better, and when he saw the rain, he immediately ran out of the firewood house that was leaking on all sides, stood under the rain, tilted his head, opened his mouth, and shouted while eagerly swallowing the rain that was still stained with the earthy smell in the air.

The people in the house, those who were masters and subordinates, all came out at this time, and one by one, although not as exaggerated as the branches, they all eagerly took pots and bowls to receive the rootless water.

"Sure enough, it's the same as the big witch said, it's really raining this day!"

The people were very happy, all of them were praising the great witch, the heavy rain of the day continued into the night, and the good mood of the people did not diminish because of this, the torches were lit in the evening, and there were still people singing and dancing, and the simple instruments could still play a rhythmic rhythm, and the beautiful women who did not know which room they were hiding in came out, dancing and laughing under the porch in thin gauze clothes, even if the gauze clothes were wet with rain, and the bare feet were already crackling, their smiles did not fade.

"They're beautiful!"

Although Zhi'er is still young, he is born with eyes to appreciate beauty, holding a large bowl that can bury his face in it, the hot soup is actually not very delicious, and even a little light, very much like the legendary brush pot water, but when the rising steam rises on the face, it will still make people feel an inexplicable touch, and unconsciously moisten the eyes.

In this drought, many people died, because people eat people and die, in fact, there are still a few, and many more people can't survive thirst, can't withstand famine, and die silently in the corner.

In the house, there were also dead people, a few old people, a few children, just like the first rain, only smashed a shallow pit, stirred up a few smoke and dust, and then disappeared.

"I also want to have such a beautiful woman in the future, and let her give me beautiful children. ”

Zhi'er's ambition is very great, as a servant, it is a luxury to have a beautiful woman, in this world, all resources are given priority to the rich and noble, even the children of the side branch have to obey the arrangement of the branch, as a servant who is not even a side branch, he wants too much.

Without a free life, what can we do as we please? All ideals are like a fantasy, or a delusion of a leper □□ who wants to eat swan meat, which will only make people laugh.

Arnold gently blew the floating oil stars on the soup bowl, reflecting the sparkle of the torches, and each oil star also had its own color, more brilliant colors, like colorful dreams, and disappeared after the next refraction.

Swallowing slowly, feeling the warm soup moistening my throat, it was as if all the discomfort had been calmed down and silenced again.

The king of the palace was delighted by this heavy rain, and the celebration began one day after the rain stopped.

At this time, it stands to reason that there should still be wild beasts lurking in the woods and grass, but the drought has killed the trees, and those beasts have suffered along with them, and their lives are no better than those of humans, either hiding in places farther away where humans cannot set foot, or they have already become the souls of human beings.

Without prey, hunting is naturally impossible, and even if those ministers want to please the king, they really can't conjure up prey out of nothing.

So, there was a blind date meeting.

said that it was a blind date, but in fact, it was a bit too beautified, it was simply an uncovered conference.

Although they are young, Arnold and Zhi'er, who are still good-looking, act as waiters and go with everyone, and men and women of the right age will appear in the arranged venue, and they will naturally go to the curtain when they see each other, and no matter how powerful they are, they can also force some women who obviously have no background.

Those women, to Arnold's surprise, they did not refuse very much, this era, more like the era of ignorant slaves to the feudal era, the so-called etiquette is mainly shown in heaven and earth, and among the people, there are not so many constraints.

Brothers and wives, women and slaves, all have, the marriage relationship is not very stable, not only broken sleeves, but also I see pity, these people are not very avoidant of people, do that kind of secret work, they themselves are not ashamed, but feel that this is a pursuit of beauty, noble and beautiful.

Arnold was startled when he first saw it, and almost lost his temper, he didn't go to ancient times, but he went to ancient times where the feudal system was relatively well-developed, the state of etiquette, and its own morality, where had he seen this kind of ...... This...... The relationship is so messy that it is impossible to describe it in words.

But on the other hand, the class hierarchy is very strictly regulated, and no matter how much love is between the two people, even the king, is not allowed to intermarry.

One of the king's favorite women was a lowly slave, so even if the king favored her, even if she also gave birth to a son to the king, her son had no status at all, even if he was the king's eldest son, he was a slave in the eyes of everyone in the palace, not higher than those lowly slaves.

Even the king's son is like this, Arnold feels that he should not expect to be treated as a simple concubine in this family in this life, because monogamy prevails in this world, yes, monogamy, there are no concubines, those slaves and maids who are touched by the male master are never considered concubines, and naturally there is no such thing as having sex, their children, no one will verify whose blood it is.

Because the man not only treats them as playthings, but also doesn't mind letting his friends come to enjoy them, and if he meets a guest he admires, he will also use them to entertain them and give them as a gift.

Zhi'er's mother was a gift that had already been given, and it didn't look very solemn, but was given by the master's family along with the other servants.

Everyone is very accustomed to this practice, when Zhi'er was young, his mother took him, but when he was older, he was separated from his mother, because his mother was too busy to take care of him, and he was already old enough to do work instead of eating rice.

Mother and son know their relationship with each other, but they have never cultivated much affection, and Arnold is the same, his mother is lucky and not sent away, but the two can not see each other very often.

Arnold is now six years old, and his mother, who is only nineteen, probably doesn't know how to be a good mother.

After a heavy rain, many lives were born one after another, the first thing that appeared was the green in the field, and the plants near the flower hall also grew again, but these are weeds that need to be cleaned up, the real flower species are much more delicate, and will not be prompted by a heavy rain, and more conditions are needed in place.

And the longest life is still conceived in the mother's body, the master of Arnold's life is a small powerhouse, not as good as the giants in front of the king, but it is also a rich and noble family who works hard, after a lot of hard work, the daughter of the master's family, in terms of blood, is Arnold's half-sister fortunately pregnant and pregnant with the king's child.

This is enough to make people happy, the life expectancy of people in this era is relatively short, and living to fifty or sixty is a long life, and the king is now forty, and there is only one eldest son who can only be counted as a slave under his knees, and there are two princesses, and there are no other heirs, if there is really no son with a more equivalent status, I am afraid that in a few years, the throne will still fall on the eldest son of the slave.

This is not what other ministers would like to see, and it will not be allowed by the Great Witch, so the final result is that the better one is that the Great Witch will be re-elected from those great families, and in this regard, the Great Witch has the decision-making power, and the worse one is far away in the sky, uh, what should I call it? It is also the king, but he is the real master of this land, and the power of the king here comes from him, the king whom he divided.

It took Arnold a long time to listen to those trivial conversations with mental energy, and it was only from a large number of meaningless conversations that he synthesized this bit of useful information, and part of it was because of the factors involved in the later stages of the plot, which allowed him to know more about the world background, otherwise, his identity would never really touch the core of politics.

These kings who were divided into feudal seals, each of them had a big witch by his side, and the big witch was assigned by the king above, and at this time there was no emperor's name, and the leader of power only had the title of king, just because the king at the top was too far away and not something that others needed to reach, so no one would feel that the titles overlapped.

These kings below are similar to a small feudal state, not a country within a country, they have to obey the leadership of the above, at the beginning of the succession, they are prescribed what to do as a king and what not to do, as a guide is the appointed witch above, each witch is equivalent to a living law, if not obeyed, the king will be deposed, or even deposed by heaven.

Whether it is true or not, but this still sounds very deterrent, at least those kings obey, sacrifice at four o'clock a year, all obey the command of the great witch, dare not have omissions, and with the wrong country, it is natural that it can be attacked by others, or the end of the group attack, which is not very beautiful, enough to be a lesson for all ambitious kings.

Arnold sighed, and continued to use his mental power to listen to the imagination of the master's family about the child who was still conceived, and the plan that sounded beautiful would be an opportunity. 166 Reading Network
