Chapter 5: Knights of the Forest
I stared haughtily at the few dark shadows that disappeared into the night, and slumped to the ground ungentlemanly.
I swear, this was the most adventurous thing I've ever done since I peeked at a girl in my kindergarten class to go to the bathroom, and for a moment, I felt like death was so close to me, and that man's eyes seemed to have the power to devour everything, taking possession of my weak strength.
Uncle Sausage, carrying a sickle, ran to me with dozens of people, and asked with concern, "Master, you are not injured, are you?" ”
"The lord is the bravest and most resourceful knight in the world, how can he be injured? He single-handedly defeated the enemy's sneak attack! ”
Hans saw that there were more people on his side, so he walked out of the hiding room, and proudly showed off to the others, of course, the main purpose was to show that he would fight side by side with me in times of danger.
Ever since I appointed Uncle Sausage as my butler, Hans has been in an invisible rivalry with him, swearing not to bow his head until he is pressed down.
Uncle Sausage led someone to tie up the robbers who were still moaning on the ground into rice dumplings, and then asked me, "What should I do with this person?" It's still worth raising food, or burn him to death! ”
No way! I didn't expect that Uncle Sausage, under your seemingly kind and honest skin, you actually have such a vicious heart, naked-naked violent maniac!
I pouted in surprise, rejecting Uncle Sausage's proposal.
When Hans saw Uncle Sausage eating turtles, he came up and said, "Why don't you reduce him to a slave and cultivate your field?" ”
Sure enough, he is an ignorant and uncivilized barbarian, full of thoughts that are either fighting and killing, or forcing good people to become prostitutes, can he have a sunny attitude?
By this time my legs had regained their standing function, and sitting like this was not conducive to my image of a great Radiant Lord, and I scanned the crowd with eyes that felt deep in myself and looked like a pool of autumn water.
"The so-called convincing people with virtue is the cultivation and realm that a nobleman and a gentleman should have, if a dog bites you, do you have to bite it in reverse?"
Hans scratched his head in confusion and muttered, "Why can't you ......?"
"Which of you will heal an arrow wound? Treat him quickly, and then bring him to my room, and I will judge him fairly. ”
One or two heads don't affect the overall situation, but when I see that everyone seems to be wondering why I can't go back to bite the dog, I can only give full play to the majesty of the lord in time and give orders.
While I was checking my only linen panties to see if I was so scared that I was wet, Uncle Sausage came in with the robber who was still tied up in a dumpling, and apparently he was wrapped in two more layers.
"Master, we have pulled out the arrow for him, and also attached the herbs, as for whether he can survive or not, it depends on God's will." Uncle Sausage said with a salute to me.
"Sausages...... Well, I'll help you change your name! After all, you are now my housekeeper, and you are always called a sausage sausage, and you will be called Wangcai in the future, which is good to listen to and remember, and the meaning is profound. ”
"Praise you, wise lord!"
Wangcai was moved to tears for a while, and it is estimated that he has been called sausages for a lifetime, and he is also very unhappy.
After arranging the housework, I am now going to be promoted to the court to judge the case, and my medieval Bao Qingtian's great name may have to rely on this shining trial to spread far and wide.
"Who's in the hall?" I pretended to be majestic and shouted, and my right hand was accustomed to patting the wood, only to find that there was only a broken wooden bowl at hand.
"Your time of death has come, do you know who I am? We are knights of the forest, and if you dare to kill me, soon a brotherhood will come to avenge me. ”
How can the robbers of ancient and modern China and foreign countries have a virtue, and their necks are ridiculously hard, what kind of mountain king Tianping general, do you think you are the 108th general of Liang Shanbo?
"What is a Forest Knight?"
I am very unfamiliar with this name, so I can only ask Hans quietly, although this kid is stupid, but he has seen a lot of knowledge with the Randy Knight before the crossing, and the news is quite reliable.
"This is a group of robbers who gathered in the mountains and forests, the leader is said to have been a knight, because of the unfair treatment, he was exiled by the lord to whom he was loyal, so he pulled up a group of outlaws to occupy the forests in this area, claiming to rob the rich and helping the poor, robbing many lords' estates, killing people and goods, and claiming to be the knights who uphold justice in the forest."
It's really a medieval version of the Water Margin after a long time, in case there are really 108 brothers under their hands, all of them are loyal and courageous, and lead a large army to kill the generals...... Wouldn't that be unimaginable!
"Your leader is a chivalrous knight, and I personally admire him as a person, so be it! I don't embarrass you, the so-called heroes cherish heroes, I'll let you go back, and help me bring a gift to your boss, from now on, our well water will not interfere with river water. ”
There's no way, I can only pretend to be cowardly in front of my absolute strength, I should call my dad when I should call my father, at least I can't just tie the knot, the strong dragon can't suppress the ground snake, and I'm just a little earthworm in dragon skin now.
The robber, who still couldn't believe that he had been released, ate an inhuman lunch, and the child ate very happily, and for a time the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, established a good friendship, and finally went away with the chain mail I gave him gratefully......
Although Hans and Wangcai were beating their chests and crying bitterly, they said that the chain mail was very valuable, but in my opinion, the broken thing was not as much iron as my heating cover.
Although the gift was also given, the relationship was also set, but in the spirit of harming people and not being able to defend people, I am determined to be a turtle farmer and cross the crowd, and immediately start arming and fighting!
The next time you bluff, the fool won't be fooled, how can you go home if you don't leave your life?
The enemy is in the dark, I am in the light, renovating and preparing for war is a top priority, this kind of castle that can be burned with a fire at will, it doesn't look like a turtle shell, it is so simple that it doesn't even have a watchtower, and the snitch who robbed the house can touch me in and kill me in minutes, and it must be transformed inside and out.
"Wangcai, gather the people to go to the forest to cut down trees, I will strengthen my castle, and organize some clever people to stand guard on various main roads, once the forest knights find us to take revenge, we must let me know as soon as possible." I thought about it for a long time and then ordered the butler.
"Master, it's about to be time for spring ploughing, and the people have to cultivate your land first, and then their own land, so as to ensure that there is a tax on the transaction rent in the coming year, as well as to feed their families, I am afraid that there is no extra manpower to take out to cut down trees."
It is really an evil old society, facing the loess with its back to the sky, except for farming, it is farming, and it has suppressed people's lives.
I'm not from this era, and I said that it was difficult to understand their way of behaving, and I also had my own consensual way of doing things, so I made my own suggestion:
"Go and tell them that all the taxes this year will be waived, my land can be grazed as I like, and the time saved will be used to cut down trees for me to strengthen the castle, and as for the lord's rations for next year, I will buy them from them at the market price."
It is estimated that there are many new words in my paragraph that make it difficult for Wangcai to understand, and my words have completely destroyed the worldview and values that he has built up all his life.
The lord does not collect taxes? And also spend money to buy from serfs? This has never happened since the creation of the world.
"Master, I don't understand what you're saying, but if you're going to do it, I'm sure the people will be happy to serve!"
Wangcai looked excited, and it was estimated that his life was also very miserable, and he was shaving enough to feed his family in that little field every year, and the vampire lord was forced to choke enough.
At this time, Hans quit, apparently many years of follower life made him think of himself as a member of the ruling class, commonly known as a dogleg.
"If the peasants don't pay taxes and don't farm the land, then they can pay it back, wise lord, you must not do this, those people are only worthy of cultivating the land, this is the rule set by God in the creation of the world, we have no surplus food and finances at all, what will we use to buy grain from merchants in the coming year?"
Otherwise, those who do not live in socialism are short-sighted, and how to develop the productive forces and positive creativity of the peasants who are bound to the land are dead and dead!
Of course, these are just my thoughts, and my actual action is to directly kick this stupid big man to the side: "You are already my squire, from now on I will appoint you as the captain of the guard, responsible for forming a castle guard of twenty people, basically arm it first, and tell the little ones that there is nothing else, and there is enough food." ”
