At this time, the sun has risen in the east, and the warm sunlight is shining on the earth, and every house is like steamed buns that have just been fished out of a steamer, exuding a thick mist. Looking into the distance, I can vaguely see a white line in the distance, which is the conscription of winter, and in a few days the snow line will come to the town of Bull, when the whole town of Bull will be buried in the snow.

Qin Feng stood on a high place, looking into the distance with the little memories in his mind, and found that it was indeed the same as in his memory, the snow line was as far as his eyes could see.

"Young master," the butler trotted to follow, panting heavily, and the fox fur on his neck was wet with moisture.

"Young Master, the funeral is held in the territory today, you have to arrive early." The butler exhaled.

"Eh, I originally thought I would go later," Qin Feng said in a joking tone, but the helpless and lonely look really made the guards around him not have the urge to laugh. It stands to reason that Qin Feng is the best tempered young master these guards have ever seen, but the movement in the study last night told them that this good young master is not unangry.

Qin Feng smiled, glanced at the housekeeper, jumped down the steps, and walked towards the square.

At this time, the surrounding area of the square was already full of people, whether it was townspeople, homeless people, or soldiers standing guard, they all instinctively gave way after seeing Qin Feng.

The square was silent all around, only the whining sound of the cold wind blowing, adding a bit of desolation and sorrow.

A huge pyre had already been erected in the square, and corpses covered with white cloth were stacked neatly and orderly on top of the pyre, and soldiers with torches stood around the pyre.

Lowell and the others also arrived early, each wearing fully armed armor and standing there with solemn faces. The youth army and the conscripts stood in the square, lined up in a neat line, but with half of them missing, the queue always looked like it had been gnawed.

"What are they doing here? Is it a funeral? "In the crowd in the square, a group of hooded men and women stood together, and if you look closely, you can see that they seem to be deliberately protecting the people in the middle.

"Yes, Miss, these are warriors who fought and died with the gnolls, and today their lord will personally see them off" A deep voice sounded quietly, and the tone seemed to be a little envious and yearning.

"Young Master? What about Baron Bolton? The slender girl sounded, as crisp as a yellow warbler: "Isn't the current head of the Rhinereth family Baron Bolton?" How can he be a young master? ”

"Baron Bolton died in battle with the Emperor in battle against the Orcs more than a month ago, and the current heir to the family is Baron Bolton's son Karis-Rheinryth, who has become the head of the Rheinryth family according to imperial law." The man was obviously well aware of the situation in Bull Town during this time, and explained in a low voice.

"How so? How so? "I didn't expect this to happen, the woman didn't expect it at all.

"Miss, it's on." The man reached out and pulled the woman and whispered.

…………

Qin Feng walked through the crowd to the square, walked up to the high platform, and took the torch handed over by Hank. The gusts of cold wind blew the cloak behind him, and the flames on the torch swayed erratically, Qin Feng didn't speak, just looked at the audience fixedly.

The slight noise that sounded because of Qin Feng's arrival suddenly disappeared, and the entire square was silent.

Even the men and women who had been talking until before were infected by the atmosphere and closed their lips tightly.

Qin Feng looked at everyone in the audience, whether it was a townsman or a homeless person, all of them looked at him with respect and worship, and Qin Feng withdrew his gaze. He wasn't complacent about this respect and adoration, he knew what he was relying on. If it weren't for the system, without these warriors who fought bravely on the battlefield, he would have become a dead soul under the sword.

Qin Feng didn't say any righteous nonsense, he was different from the traditional lords of this world, he knew that those nonsense had no effect at all except to fool and fool others. He disdained to use these things, because he had seen in everyone's eyes that he had received what others could not get - that respect, that reverence!

He turned around and threw the torch in his hand into the pyre, and the soldiers around him also threw the torch into the pyre.

The dry wood was ignited in an instant, first on all sides, then outward, and after a while the whole pyre was set on fire. A huge torch seemed to be lit in the middle of the whole square, and the raging heat wave was scattered outward one after another, as if the cold air had been ignited in an instant.

It lasted until noon, when the burning pyre was finally extinguished, and the relatives of the fallen soldiers wept in urns and bottles to fill the ashes of their loved ones.

"Butler, put all the ashes of the soldiers together, and you go and recruit some craftsmen to hurry up and build a hero's shrine. Let's build it on the hillside in the southeast corner, and put my father's ashes in it when it's finished. Qin Feng glanced at the map in the system and said to the housekeeper.

"Yes, young master."

"Alright, let's go down and get ready, there's a dinner tonight." This was what Qin Feng's soldiers promised before and now, and he couldn't break his promise.

"Yes, young master."

"Dinner? Master, can I go to your dinner? A crisp female voice suddenly sounded, and the vigilant guards immediately drew their weapons and surrounded Qin Feng in the middle.

Ignoring the man's persuasion, the woman walked out of the townspeople, looked at the guards who surrounded her with weapons, and said jokingly, "Is this how the Rheinrys entertain guests?" This is against the Baron's demeanor! ”

Qin Feng waved his hand, letting the guards disperse, took a few steps forward, and carefully looked at the person in front of him. A plain-looking coat with a hood, but the fine stitching and smooth fur make the coat valuable. The big hood is stuck on the woman's head, so that people can't see the woman's appearance, and on the edge of the hood, it is finely inlaid with complex and gorgeous patterns, which seem to be inlaid with gold wire. This made Qin Feng have to be curious about the identity of a woman, in this world, it is definitely not an ordinary nobleman who can use gold thread as a decoration on clothes.

"Your Excellency, do you usually look at girls like this?" The woman's tone was slightly disgusted.

"No, I'm only with the enemy." Qin Feng went back.

"Well, then, the Baron counts me as an enemy!" The woman's tone is a little bad, she is usually used to being complimented, when has she ever been angry like this.

"Guy of unknown origin, he doesn't even tell his identity, what do you think I should do with you?" Qin Feng said mercilessly, he didn't have the heart to play any guessing game with others.

The housekeeper frowned, staring at the pattern on the edge of the woman's hood, faintly familiar in his heart, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

The man who was with the woman walked out at this time, followed by several men who were also dressed in the same clothes, the man stepped forward, took off his hood, solemnly saluted Qin Feng, and said, "I am a knight of the West Ruigan from the Renault family, and I am honored to meet you, Your Excellency the Baron." ”

Qin Feng also performed a courtesy.

"This is the youngest daughter of Lord Earl, Sirina, who has been spoiled by Lord Earl since she was a child, I hope Your Excellency the Baron will not mind."

"Hmph...."Shirina reluctantly took off her hood, revealing a supple blonde hair, clearly of Far North origin. Qin Feng has introduced the Renault family in memory, it is rumored that the ancestor of the Renault family is a Renault from the far north, who joined the empire during the founding emperor, and was divided into the northernmost part of the empire after the war because of his military exploits, and has always guarded the frontier for the empire, and the typical characteristics of the descendants of the Renault family are golden hair and blue eyes.

The butler also suddenly thought at this time that he had gone to visit the Renault family with Baron Bolton.

"Your Excellency, we hope to have a chance to meet you alone." Sirigang said at this time.

"I invite you to tonight's dinner, and after the dinner I will ask the butler to take you to meet me, and I can give you a chance to meet alone." Qin Feng glanced at Xilina as he spoke, then turned to leave.
