Chapter 339: Return to Ganquan Village

With the sound of horses' hooves, a knight dressed in silver-white armor (shēn) and sapphire inlaid with a mouth (xiōng) swept across the dirt road in front of him on a handsome war horse in jujube. The cooperation of this man and horse was so tacit that it almost turned into a wind swept by, and the knight's black hair fluttered and fluttered in the wind, and he was unrestrained and chic, and his spirit was to the extreme. This is naturally our protagonist, Han Xing!

Even the lush green grass on the side of the road was driven by the air waves, swaying up and down in layers, as if to greet the handsome war horse and its owner. The horse's hooves tread across the dirt paved road, raising a layer of earthy yellow yin (all the first sounds), and by the time the dust had settled, the man and the horse had become a black dot on the edge of the skyline, almost invisible.

"Wait for me, Hanschel!" But there was another man behind him, riding a white horse, but he was far from the legendary prince. He (shēn) wears a sky-blue tuxedo with a white scarf and a bow tie at the neckline, and is about forty years old, more of a middle-aged gentleman than a prince.

His riding skills are far worse than the previous one person and one horse, he lay on the horse, galloping between the horses, not only did not see the chic pleasure, but was a little more restrained, it seemed that because the dust entered the respiratory tract, he coughed, and then pulled the white silk scarf around his neck, covering his mouth and nose, looking like a Cao (cāo) who had cut his beard and abandoned his robe! Needless to say, this is the former King His Majesty who should have been guillotined, but was saved by Han Xing - Louis XVI!

"I say, Louie! Didn't you say you were a connoisseur at horseback riding? Is it so embarrassing? But he saw the knight on the red horse turn around and come to the side of the middle-aged gentleman (shēn).

"I... I can't do it anymore, I'm old! I feel like if I had been faster, I'd probably be thrown off my horse! Louis XVI pulled the reins of his horse, slowed his horse, and wheezed violently as he lay on his horse.

"Old? What are you kidding, we're almost the same age now! Han Xing also slowed down his horse, stretched, and took a deep breath of the air with the scent of grass and earth.

"Alright! I'll be honest, I've ridden no more than two kilometers in a row in the past! That is, going around in circles in the hunting woods, and not as fast as you! Louis XVI sighed, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Damn, those bastards praised my equestrian skills in order to shoot my horses (pì), and I took it seriously!" Louis XVI put away his handkerchief and puffed out his cheeks.

"Well, I heard of a nobleman who curryed favor with the king by providing light when he went to the toilet, and finally succeeded in obtaining the title of marquis!" Han Xing teased.

"Not me anyway! This is also outrageous, what kind of marquis is him? Rub (pì) share marquis? The Marquis of Minden? I don't think it's better to seal him up, Earl Sridden has it! Louis XVI's breathing had calmed down, and he joked with a smile.

"Is that your territory ahead?" When the two of them continued to walk for hundreds of meters, they saw a white tower appear in the shade of greenery. The tower is not very tall, only a dozen meters, and at most 7 or 8 stories high, but in this place full of forests and green fields, it can be regarded as a tall symbol (xìng) building.

"Yes, this watchtower is part of the Lord's Mansion built by the Limburgh family!" Han Xing looked at the white spire, which emitted an off-white light in the sunlight, and nodded slightly.

At this moment, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind (shēn), and the person who came was a red-haired young man with blue eyes as clear as a lake, wearing a (shēn) smart dark blue ranger costume and a green woolen cloak. Carrying a maple longbow on his back, he looks refreshed and energetic, as sunny and cheerful as a rising rì.

"Uncle Hanschel, Uncle Louie, wait for me!" This sunny boy is naturally Roy, he is smiling and waving his hand at Han Xing and Louis XVI in front of him while instigating the maroon war horse under his crotch.

"Alas~ Looking at this child, I feel old, really old!" Louis XVI looked at Roy's (tǐng) plucking (shēn) posture, and he sighed lightly with a hint of sadness (chūn) in his heart.

"Don't worry, this is an infinite world full of wonders, and there may be a way to rejuvenate yourself!" Han Xing said comfortingly.

Below the white tower is a castle with a circular pedestal, perched on a hill more than ten meters high, like a white (nǎi) oil cake. A winding mountain road connects the small castle with the village below. On the right hand side of the mountain road, there is also a silver ribbon of water trickling out of the castle, turning into a stream, accompanied by the gentle sound of "whooshing" water, along the hillside into the sapphire-like small berth, the small bob is connected to the river behind the castle, the blue river water reflects the white castle, sparkling waves spread on it, as if it is a beautiful picture decorated with gold dust! What a picturesque place surrounded by mountains and rivers!

"Oh my God, if only I had such a castle!" Louis XVI looked at the white castle and its reflection on the water with envy.

"You live in Versailles, Fontainebleau, or even Tuileries, which is not a diàn residence that can be called the treasure of the world? Do you still need to covet my castle, which covers an area of less than a mile? Han Xing pouted.

"You don't understand, the Palace of Versailles is magnificent, magnificent, and the Hall of Mirrors is the first of its kind, which has been imitated by later generations and applied to many large and small buildings, but it lacks a little tranquil and comfortable taste, and it can only be said that each has its own strengths! Just by virtue of the fact that it is close to the mountains and rivers, the Palace of Versailles is incomparable! Louis XVI looked at the white castle road by the mountains.

"Do you know what I call it?" Han Xing teased with squeezing his eyebrows.

Louis XVI shook his head when he heard this, and Han Xing showed a smug smile and said, "Cake Castle!" Louis XVI laughed when he heard this.

"Look, isn't it? It looks like a big three-tiered (nǎi) oil cake, with a white tower in the middle of it as a candle! Han Xing gestured.

"It's (tǐng) figurative!" When Louis XVI said this, the corners of his mouth rose from time to time.

As Han Xing rode through the central market of Ganquan Village, the busy crowd put down their farm work and goods when they saw Han Xing, put down their right hands on their hearts, and bowed to him with a slight bow (shēn). Han Xing put his right hand into a fist after waking up, and also greeted him with a slight chin like a quartet.

"Lord Earl, I wish you (shēn) good health!"

"Lord Earl, I wish you every victory!"

"Lord Earl, Ganquan Village is thanks to your protection!"

The sound of people's blessings sounded all around, although it was chaotic, but looking at their sincere eyes and smiles on their faces, it was obvious that it was not a fake.

"They look like they're wearing you, Hanschel!" Louis XVI looked around and said in Han Xing's ear.

"Of course! Uncle Hanschel saved Mrs. Lilith last time and hanged that angry bastard, Anton O'Neill, and of course the people wear him! Roy explained.

Ganquan Village has always played the role of the trade center of the county of Sāo, and it is located at the halfway point between the castle of Na (Sāo) and the town of Wetzlar, (shēn) in the hinterland of the entire Count of Sāo, north to the Lena River, south to Frankfurt and Mainz, if someone is willing to invest in it, it is entirely possible that Ganquan Village will become the most prosperous town in the entire Count of Sāo.

Even if no one invests in it, the village of Ganquan has become an important transit point in the trade network around the entire Duchy of Hesse by virtue of its geographical advantages and cool and sweet spring water. When a large number of caravans passed through here, they stopped to rest and take advantage of the rest time to peddle their goods, which greatly stimulated the economic development of Ganqun Village, so that the whole small village has become quite prosperous and has a tendency to develop into a town.

When Han Xing and his party came to the gate of the castle on the hill, they saw two guards holding spears and wearing leather armor on the two-meter-high half-wall.

"May I ask you, sir, what are you doing?" One of the young guards asked softly, bowing slightly, with a respectful expression.

"Why do I have to eat closed doors every time I go to Ganquan Village? I, the legitimate lord of Ganquan Village, have come so often that even the guards don't even know me! Alas~ It's all tears! Han Xing couldn't cry or laugh in his heart. The only thing that made Han Xing feel relieved was probably that after the last lesson of Anton O'Neill, they finally learned to speak politely.

Just when Han Xing was thinking about how to speak, a bearded man wearing a pot helmet walked out, he glanced at Han Xing, and went up to reward the two guards.

"Two bastards! This is Lord Count Segaard, who last time he was able to rescue Lady Lilith thanks to his old man's visit! You don't keep your eyes open and take a closer look, his old man is so eye-catching, how many Orientals can this Holy Roman Empire find? ”

Then the bearded man bowed (shēn) with a smile and said to Han Xing, "Lord Earl, you are back!" Wait, I'll have someone open the door for you! As he spoke, he kicked one of the guards' pì shares, "Why don't you go open the door quickly, what are you doing grinding and chirping?" ”。

It had been 5 months since Han Xing left the Infinite World, and when he left, it was the golden autumn of October, when the melons were ripe and fell, but at this time, he had already entered (chūn), the hundred herbs were revived, and everything sprouted.

"Lord Count, you're back! Alas~ The Duchy of Hesse has not been peaceful recently! This matter of war and diplomacy (qíng), Mrs. Lilith does not dare to make up her mind easily! We can only drag on, and now that you're back, we've found the backbone! I saw a rough man wearing leather chain mixed armor, with a sword at his waist, and greeted Han Xingdao.
