If he didn't want you, I wouldn't leave

- Ga

After the village chief informed all the large and small households in the village, he hurried back.

It's a bit of a misservice to let the knights of the shrine squeeze into their huts, but I can't arrange them to the villagers' homes, so it's really inadequate.

Near, the dim candlelight peeked through the window, and there was not a sound coming from the house, as if no one was there.

But the village chief knew that the three knights were inside.

Squeak~ The village chief pushed the door in.

Sure enough, the three knights sat upright on the ground, their eyes closed, and they didn't say a word.

Seeing that the village chief had returned, the knights all opened their eyes, stood up, and made an elder salute.

Of the three knights, two were knights - a man and a woman, and one was a great knight, and the great knight was a tall and strong man.

Their rank is seen by the village chief through the badge on their chests, the knight is a mounted spear, and the grand knight is a mounted spear and a sword crossed (PS: the mounted spear here is about the same as the Chinese one).

"Village Chief, thank you for your support of the shrine. The honorable knight bent down slightly and said (PS: The old village chief is Luo Guo).

The village chief didn't feel that it was unnatural to accept a thank you from a great knight, who had always been like this.

"After all, I was also a Knight of the Shrine when I was young. The village chief replied proudly.

"You're a knight too?" asked the petite female knight behind the big knight in surprise.

"Well, I got out of gear because of some things. The village chief's face was slightly red, but fortunately his face was darker and the lights were dim, and the female knight did not notice the unnaturalness on the village chief's face.

The village chief thought in his heart that the knight squire should also be regarded as a knight.

"Alright, you can spend the night with me tonight. The village chief hastened to change the subject, he was afraid that the curious female knight would ask any more questions, and ask questions he did not want to answer.

"Well excuse me tonight, we're only here for one night, thank you. The Grand Knight replied politely.

The village chief shook his head slightly, and slowly walked into the back room, leaving the knights in the hall. It's not that he doesn't want the knights to rest in the back room, but there are three knights, and there is only one bed, and besides, there is an old man like himself, and the knights definitely don't sleep on their own beds and let the elders sleep on the floor.

As for the covering, the village chief has one more, but the village chief doesn't think it's necessary to take it out.

The candle was extinguished, and the village chief didn't know how the knights slept outside, but he tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep anyway.

The visit of the Knight of Jingu evokes fond memories of the village chief many years ago, when he was still young and in high spirits, until he met her one day...

......

When it was dawn, the three knights meditated on their knees all night, and it was nice for the knights to sit still, so they didn't feel anything wrong with that.

The knights stood up and shook their bodies, they didn't take off their armor last night, and they practiced with weights, but they didn't move for a long time, and they were pressed by a set of armor, which was really uncomfortable.

The knights quietly pushed open the door, walked out of the village chief's house, and gently closed the door again.

They are energetic and have always maintained the habit of waking up early, but they don't want to disturb the village chief.

The big knight is called Zong Xi, the female knight is called Emma, and the male knight is called Kajia, and the two-character names indicate that they may be the children of nobles, and most of the children of commoner families are single-word names.

The knights were about to start their morning exercises, and they jogged side by side around Nomura, saying that they were jogging, and the knights' jogging was faster than ordinary people's jogging, and they could jump three or four meters in one step.

They were silent, running with their heads down, not making a sound from their feet.

And they kept running and running, running from one line to half the sky, and then the people of the village were about to get up, and the knights went back.

The village chief was cleaning up the table at this time, and he had been immersed in his stirring memories at night, so excited that he had not slept all night.

The knight went out on his front foot for morning exercise, and he went down to cook for them on the back foot.

Seeing the knights who had returned, he hurriedly beckoned, "The meal is ready, the children come to eat." ”

"Thank you, village chief. Several knights replied gratefully.

The rice was a normal breakfast: rice porridge and fritters, oh, and a small plate of carrot-pickled pickles.

There was nothing good to eat in the village, but the knights were not picky.

In fact, these things could not keep the knights full at all, but only made them hungry the more they ate.

Knights are no longer ordinary human beings in a sense, they have broken through a boundary, and the energy they need is no longer what can be satisfied by grains.

The knights ate all the seven-colored rice given by the gods, or some other energy-rich food. Just like the three knights, they all carried with them the special dry food of the shrine - the marching ration, a bean the size of a soybean, one was enough to sustain their normal physical consumption for a day.

However, the elder could not give up, and the three knights seriously ate the breakfast made by the village chief, and then threw a bean into his mouth while the village chief was not paying attention, and his throat moved.

The food for the march was gone, and the terrible hunger suddenly disappeared, and the three knights felt comfortable.

"It's almost time, everyone is almost finished eating, I'll go and call them, you just wait in the house, don't go out yet, wait for me to come in and call you." The village chief went out and turned back to the three knights.

The three knights understood what the village chief meant, this was a small place, and they had never seen a knight, so they were afraid that it would be too lively and annoy them.

The village chief went from house to house, and in the middle of the day, the village chief came in and asked the knights to go out to see the children.

Zong Xi knew in his heart that this task was issued by the high-level of the Divine Palace.

I have never seen such a task as a special team of knights to recruit knight squires somewhere, and there is only one place.

Moreover, the recruitment of attendants is usually left to civil officials such as clerks.

Apparently, there was a special child here who caught the attention of the upper echelons of the shrine.

......

"Ga, you're sure you'll be able to pick it. Min said excitedly to Ga.

Ga's gains and losses were silent, he wasn't very excited, and he felt that he would definitely be selected.

But what about after you choose?

He is going to leave the land where he was born, leave his friends, leave Min, leave his father, and go to a place full of unknowns.

Ga was confused, even though he knew that this was the best chance to get out.

The village chief did not let the children's parents come with them, but only the children.

At this time, a dozen eleven or twelve-year-old children gathered in front of the village chief's door (the girls only went to the city for a class every other afternoon).

The initial training intensity of the knight was not small, and it was just right to start at the age of eleven or twelve.

Squeak~ The door opened, and the children quieted down, looking straight into the door.

The village chief came out first.

The children are looking forward to it even more eagerly.

The sound of the iron boots hitting the ground made the children extremely excited.
