Chapter 247: Noble Fiefdom
I slept uncomfortably this night, half-asleep and half-awake, I seemed to see Song Yingchun's ghost-like figure again, holding a bloody dagger in his hand, his sudden cold gaze made people chill from the bottom of his heart, a blade that could hurt his sister without any scruples, it was really more terrible than all the weapons in the world, and it was tyrannical, she approached me, and I was covered in cold sweat.
Then he woke up from the dream, but saw that there was no spring in front of him, only Sanfu was standing and sleeping not far away.
"Yingchun, sister doesn't blame you, you are stunned by the devil, it's not your fault, come back quickly." Song Bailu was lying on the sofa, whispering in a dream.
Devilish? I'm afraid this is only half of the reason, that Song Yingchun stabbed that knife without hesitation, not only because of the catalytic intention of the ** indulgent, but also from the subjective intention in her heart, I guess she was thinking at that time, it doesn't matter if my sister wants to do it, she has to please the new master, so that her next plan to resurrect the merman can be carried out, mostly out of selfishness.
It's just that I don't understand, how can she do that well without mercy and without hesitation, and there is no trace of remorse afterwards, is her heart really so cold?
The two girls were still asleep, their injuries were very serious, I didn't know anything about medicine, and besides, it was a deserted castle, there was nothing, and I couldn't help them, so all I could do was to make an environment for them to recuperate in the process, so that they could lie down and be comfortable for the time being, and meet their most basic needs, waiting for any of them to wake up.
Go outside and find some useless dead tree trunks, take them in and continue to light the fire, because the fireplace is always burning in this house, the dampness has subsided a lot, and now it is not so uncomfortable to stay, I also walked around the first floor room of about 300 square meters, and I saw a portrait of Terry Buck, but not from the pirate period, but wearing a set of silver, opening the helmet cover, revealing a bearded face.
The expression is quite serious, but how funny it is, he is still holding a shield, riding a white horse, holding a spear like an awl, presumably a portrait of him as a knight, I have heard Yun Wen say that he was a nobleman before, it seems to be true, ancient Europe attaches great importance to blood, and the children of ordinary nobles can be knighted at the age of fifteen, and civilians are posthumously sealed, which is relatively difficult.
It is also understood that the entire castle was probably the fief of Terry Buck, and that such a small castle, or rather a large manor, was built.
Since it is a place where the nobles once lived, there should be things, here is really everything, I lit the kerosene lamp and looked around, in addition to the furniture and other things I saw, there are many ornaments, many of which are bronzes from China, but I don't care about these, I am more concerned about trivial things such as firewood, rice, oil and salt.
There are many rooms around, open one by one, there is a special storage room on the southwest side, you can see a broom, a mop, an iron bucket, the maid's moldy clothes, a basin, and the other side of the northwest side, is the kitchen, just like on the Sea Monster, there is a large cabinet here, knives and forks, dishes, plates, fruit baskets, a lot of pots and pans and iron spoons hanging with ropes, etc., there is a stove and a stove by the wall, and there is a handle in the middle of the stove, which must be able to bake bread in it.
When I opened the cabinet there, in addition to a rice jar, there were a bunch of cockroaches speeding under my feet, and I almost stepped down, but I heard that the cockroaches stepped on more and more, and when I stepped on this foot, all the eggs burst out, and I still braked hard.
The large cabinet is on the top wall on the west side, the two stoves are on the top wall on the east side, there is a water tank next to it, and there is a dishwashing sink next to the water tank, and the pots and pans hanging in the center of the kitchen, tied to the rope, under the rope is a large table, I want to come to the practical processing of meat on weekdays, there are a lot of knife marks on it, due north front is the window, you can see the outside yard, and the south rear is the direction I entered the door.
I remember that there were a lot of empty boxes in the storage room, so I found two of them and threw all the tableware that had been broken and rusted and could not be used.
Therefore, there is not much left, there is only a set of silver left, still knives, forks, plates and spoons, and a few ceramics are also left, a total of three ceramic pots, two ceramic bowls, a ceramic cup, one of the three ceramic pots is larger, about two palms high, and the capacity is larger.
I moved the others to the storage room, and took out a broom, a mop, and two iron buckets.
But where people can live, there is a necessary condition, that is, there must be water, the so-called one side of the water and soil to raise one side of the people, is this principle, this look at every human civilization must be related to the river basin to know, although this castle is not particularly large, but how can definitely live on the twenty or thirty people, if there is no water, or it is inconvenient to get water, so many people use water, long die of thirst.
Therefore, there is either a freshwater area or well water in this vicinity, and with this judgment, I took the dog dog out for a walk, and the dog dog was just eating some grass, and the sun was already high in the sky.
Somewhere in this courtyard, you can see an underground entrance, but it is not hidden, and then go down, go up about a hundred steps, to a relatively deep underground, you can hear the sound of flowing water, because the water is far from the ground, and the underground is relatively constant, the water of this underground river is not frozen, and the smell is cold, it should still be a mountain spring flowing from where.
As long as there is water, everything is alive.
After that, I put the cutlery in an iron bucket, took it down one by one, washed it, and then used a large porcelain pot to decorate the spring water, and put it on the stove when it was hot, and when the girls cried out that they were thirsty, I would pour a bowl for them to drink, and when they shouted hot, I would also be able to use some cloth here to glue water on their foreheads, so that their foreheads could cool down after the fever.
When they all stopped, I was thinking about whether to go back and look for something, but when I came back, the nine-tailed white fox had promised me to avoid it, if I went out and was found by the manipulator and Yingchun, then I couldn't live here anymore, and for now, it was relatively irrational to do so.
Listen to people's advice and eat well, I'd better stay first.
It's just that, firstly, such an important thing as the Golden Que Sword is still buried in the ruins, and secondly, the wheat field that has been planted for so long may be abandoned if it is not managed, so it still has to be kept now, but it is not a long-term solution after all.
"Zhou Bo..."
I was thinking and meditating, when I suddenly heard a call, turned around, but saw that Yun Wen had woken up, she was holding her head, very weak, I hurried over and helped, she sat up slightly, and said, "Where is this?" I remember last night's earthquake, there was a giant of the desolation making trouble outside, was it my nightmare? ”
I shook my head: "It's not a dream, it's true, the post station has fallen, as for what happened, I'll talk to you slowly." ”
She nodded, and then I told her about what happened last night, and she listened, constantly looking at Bai Lu, and couldn't help but feel for it, thinking that she would be like me after hearing it, thinking about avoiding the limelight for the time being, settling down for a good time, and waiting for the momentum to pass, but she didn't think so.
"No, Yingchun will definitely have an accident if she stays by that strange guy's side, we have to save her, we can't leave her outside to suffer alone, you also know that she is really not under her control to do that to her sister, she won't be like this on weekdays, we should save her, she is our companion." Yun Wen said.
"Companions? You also know that the gray powder will only have an intentional catalytic effect on the human body, and during this time, people can maintain a certain amount of sanity, She stabbed us without blinking, and she didn't treat us as partners at all. I said.
"Then Zhou Bo, when you hugged Song Bailu tightly, did you have any sense? Whether catalytic or not, it's not my own subjective will, Yingchun is really ignorant on weekdays, but she is a partner who has been with us for so long, are you really willing to watch her suffer? Besides, I think Sister Bai Lu, who is a victim, also hopes that she can come back safely and reunite, right? Yun Wen looked into my eyes and said seriously.
