Chapter 47: The Bet
"I can't agree to this. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
At this time, in Hobbes's new home, a room furnished not at all like a noble dwelling, but like a blacksmith's shop. Hobbes stood up apologetically and bowed deeply.
Hobbes's reaction was also expected by Ye Yu, but he apologized so solemnly every time, which made him always a little embarrassed.
Perhaps, for Ye Yu, this kind of upright and upright person is the person he will not deal with the most.
"You are a great warrior, but I still have a problem with your character, and I do not believe that you will be able to benefit the inhabitants of the city by becoming a knight. So, I'm sorry, I can't refer you to Lord Garon. Hobbes said.
Ye Yu smiled slightly and said: "Maybe there are still some misunderstandings among us, but I can feel that Lord Hobbes recognizes me, I want to ask, why does Hobbes recognize me like this, a person who you think has a bad character?" ”
Hobbs looked at Ye Yu, sat down slowly, and said, "From your sword, I can see that you have the pride of a warrior. During the game, you could have pierced my chest with your sword the moment I stopped the hammer, but you didn't, and after sensing my intentions, you withdrew your sword. You're not a person who likes to kill indiscriminately, and you have your pride in not wanting to take advantage of others. ”
Ye Yu was slightly stunned, indeed, at that time, he had already noticed the mercy of Hobbes's men, and when the lightning flashed, the sound of war drums representing Hobbes's fighting spirit suddenly disappeared in Ye Yu's heart.
He instantly understood that this was Hobbes's mercy on his men, so the Tyre dagger in his hand did not fly out after all.
"That's why you believe me?" Ye Yu said.
"Yes, I don't like what you did, and I even have objections to your character. But I do believe that you, as a warrior, my grandfather said when I was younger, that everyone has a different personality, good and bad. Not everyone can believe it, but if this person has the pride of a warrior, then he is still a principled person after all, and he can be trusted. Hobbes said solemnly.
Ye Yu smiled bitterly and said, "In front of you, I always feel a little shorter. ”
Hobbes shook his head and said, "No, it's me in front of you, a little shorter." As he spoke, he compared his own height.
Ye Yu was stunned for a moment, and then the two looked at each other and smiled.
"That's good! So, how about another battle between you and me, and if I win, you introduce me to Lord Garon, and I promise you that I will not become a knight. Just be a soldier. Ye Yu said.
Hobbes smiled when he heard this: "Then what if you lose?" ”
"I'll have the wine and meat tonight? What do you think? Ye Yu said with a smile.
"Good!" Hobbes held out his hand. Although I don't know why Ye Yu has to play for Sir Garon, as a warrior, Ye Yu has already made such a concession, he doesn't agree, he just doesn't believe Ye Yu.
After all, in his heart, Ye Yu is qualified to be a knight.
Ye Yu grabbed Hobbs's hand steadily and said, "A word is a certainty!" ”
"But ......," Hobbes suddenly became serious again.
Ye Yu was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart: What tricks does this guy have!
"Before that, I think we should have breakfast, and we can't fight hungry." Hobbes said in a much more serious way than usual.
Ye Yu was stunned again for a moment, and then laughed: "Okay!" ”
As he spoke, Hobbes let go of Ye Yu's hand and walked to the stove at the same time. While Hobbes was taking breakfast, Ye Yu looked at the room again.
The room furnishings are very simple, a table, then a bed, a few chairs, very rare, there is a stove in the nobleman's room, and there are no special ornaments for the nobles, there are two pairs of armor on the wall, both are Hobbes's size, one is a silver full-body knight's armor, the other is a black leather armor that protects several key parts, and on the side of the two armors, there are two hammers, one is a black pointed hammer, and the other is a flat-headed hammer used by Hobbes during the game.
On the side of the two hammers, there are some other weapons, swords, guns and halberds, which don't look too eye-catching, but Ye Yu can see that the quality of these knives, guns and halberds should not be low, although they are not as good as their own Tyr double swords, the sharpness should be C-like this, except for blunt weapons, the sharpness of weapons is at least F-level, C- weapons, which are already very good, at least not what a civilian should have, and even most players are fighting for C-level weapons.
As for the two hammers, Ye Yu could also see that they were definitely fighting with his own Tyr double swords, and the flat-headed hammer that defeated Ye Yu looked as dark as the pointed hammer, and he didn't know what material it was cast, but he could feel that this flat-headed hammer had some peculiar things that its dark appearance could not show.
Ye Yu was looking at it, and Hobbs brought the radish and potato stew soup and a few pieces of bread, and said, "This is what my grandfather left me, my father died very early, and my grandfather has always taken care of me." ”
Ye Yu retracted his gaze and said, "From these weapons, it can be seen that Sir Joyce is definitely a great warrior. ”
Ye Yu also inquired about Joyce in the city? Cecil's deeds, I also have a little admiration for this dwarf hero in my heart, especially when he finally returned the title, which made Ye Yu see a proud soul hidden under the dwarf skin.
This sentence is also heartfelt.
Hobbes scratched his head and didn't speak, but he could tell that this guy was very useful.
Ye Yu smiled, then took a sip of soup, and unconsciously praised: "Not bad!" ”
Hobbes scratched his head again.
Ye Yu said: "You should go to be a chef. ”
Hobbes said: "Grandpa said that in order for a man to survive, first, he must learn to strike iron, and second, he must learn to cook. ”
No wonder this blacksmith shop is arranged.
Ye Yu knew it in his heart, and at the same time, he could imagine this Joyce? What a man of steel is Viscount Cecil.
Of course, Ye Yu would not think that this "striking iron" is the meaning of the blacksmith's striking iron, men are like iron, after countless tempering, they can become steel, and then after countless fire smelting and quenching, they can become an invincible hero.
Undoubtedly, Joyce? Cecil is one such hero.
And to learn to cook, this is the most wonderful words, people are iron, rice is steel, if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry and panic, a good body is everything, it can be seen that this Joyce? Sir Cecil is a man who cherishes himself, those around him, and others, not those honors and vain powers.
Because, cooking can be for yourself and for others.
It is no wonder that he will be famous throughout the kingdom, and countless people will follow his example.
"Well said." Ye Yu was sincerely admired.
Hobbes looked at Ye Yu, and from this man's eyes, he saw a look of admiration in understanding, a look of admiration after fully understanding his grandfather's words and even understanding his grandfather's personality.
Hobbes suddenly understood that this man understood what kind of man his grandfather was just from a few words from himself.
And I admired it from the bottom of my heart.
At this moment, for no reason, he had a strange feeling towards Ye Yu, as if he saw his grandfather sitting next to this man, talking happily with him.
At the same time, he was also curious about Ye Yu, and he was a little unsure of Ye Yu.
This man can humiliate a man in the arena with heinous means, or he can converse pleasantly with soldiers at the gates of the city, and even, by words, he can understand a great hero.
Could it be that this man is also a hero?
He believed that only the same hero could understand another hero from words.
Next, the two of them finished breakfast attentively.
Hobbs cleaned up and said to Ye Yu, "Let's go to the school field." ”
The school field is where the kingdom trains soldiers, and ordinary civilians have no right to enter, after all, it is a military facility, and all the kingdom forces are very careful in this regard, even in the dark organization, their special training facilities are also strictly guarded, and if there is a slight leakage, it will kill people on a large scale.
"Is that okay?" Ye Yu obviously thought of this section.
"It's okay." Hobbes took the lead out of his residence, and Ye Yu saw him say this, so he didn't say much and followed him out.
The castle is not the only building in the inner wall, in fact, it is similar to the other layers of the castle, the castle is located in the center, and in the circular area of the inner city wall, there are countless houses and facilities.
Most of the houses were the residences of knights and soldiers, as well as some purpose-built training facilities, as well as some research facilities, facilities for the manufacture of military supplies.
Of course, these are some things that are out of reach of civilians.
Soon, the two arrived at the school field, the school field is a large circular field, a small stone wall is piled up on the outside, and the inside is a piece of yellow earth, which can accommodate about a thousand people to train at the same time, and on the east side of the school field, there is a small high platform, which resembles a terrace of the arena, which should be the place where the city lord watches the training on weekdays.
Under the small high platform, there is something that looks like a rostrum, which is supposed to be the place where the training officer gives orders.
At this time, there was already a group of about a hundred soldiers training, but Ye Yu did not see the scene of soldier training. Because these soldiers were gathering in a circle, shouting loudly, and in the center of the crowd were two men fighting with swords, and you came and went, and it was very fierce.
Hobbes saw that someone was competing with a sword, and pulled Ye Yu forward.
When everyone saw Hobbes coming, they all showed respectful expressions and got out of the way, while the two people who were fighting swords in the field did not notice him because they were focused on their opponents.
However, the victory and defeat were quickly divided in the field, and among the two people fighting the sword, a slightly shorter man looked at the opponent's gap, and the long sword stabbed and picked up, hitting the opponent's hand, and the opponent was in pain and loosened the sword.
The winner is decided.
"Good! Both are good! Hobbes applauded.
Ye Yu also nodded and smiled, the short warrior just now had a really good timing, and he was also very good at swordsmanship, and the abrupt end of the game was also very exciting.
The two of them in the field looked at Hobbs, the new champion of the athletic conference, the first man in the history of Jeff City to be promoted from a knight candidate without a test, although he was short, but no one showed a look of contempt, and the two respectfully saluted Hobbs.
"Yu, do you still use your short sword?" Hobbs looked at the two short swords at Ye Yu's waist.
Ye Yu nodded and said, "Other weapons are not used to estimating. ”
"Then I'll use this sledgehammer, just like I did during the game." Hobbes slapped the flathead hammer on the back.
When the soldiers heard that Hobbes was going to have a fight, they all became excited. Looking at Ye Yu's ordinary body and bones, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
Could it be that Master Hobbes's opponent is this ordinary man?
Obviously, the soldiers here don't know Ye Yu.
Everyone looked at each other.
What's going on?
Yes, Master Hobbes must be joking with us, such an ordinary person, everyone here can be killed at will, how can Master Hobbes be interested.
Hobbes made a gesture of please.
Ye Yu nodded, stepped forward, stood in the circle, and passed by the two sword fighting soldiers who had fallen off.
The two sword-fighting soldiers were puzzled.
Not kidding? Master Hobbes is going to compete with an ordinary person?
They rubbed shoulders with Hobbes in amazement.
