Sitting on horses, the hooves of the horses were trampling on the road, and the three of them were drowsy from the sun. After walking for a while, I saw a wooden house on the side of the road, and a faint smoke came out of the chimney of the wooden house. The three of them rode to the hut and dismounted. Iron Head knew that he was easy to offend people when he spoke, so he didn't rush forward and knock on the door, and Little York felt that the lead of this action was Radish, but he was one step behind and made his debut, asking Turnip to go first. Radish shrugged her shoulders and stepped forward, about to knock on the door, when suddenly her raised hand slowly lowered again. Little York behind him felt a little strange, and saw that the turnip seemed to be staring at a place, and also followed his gaze, which turned out to be an oil lamp, placed on a small shelf next to the door, and a small flame on the oil lamp fluttered slightly in the wind.

"What's the matter?" little York asked when he saw the oil lamp, and thought it was very ordinary, but he didn't expect that the radish seemed to be very concerned about it. Radish didn't answer immediately, pondered for a while, and said, "Do you think this oil lamp is a little familiar?" "???" Little York had a question mark on his face: "Aren't most oil lamps like this?" Radish thought slightly: "How do I think, this oil lamp is a bit like something sold by the store manager?" "Store manager? Is what you said true? Is it really the store manager we know?" Little York was a little surprised: "I heard that the store manager took Selena and didn't know where to go, so let us meet him here?" Maybe, after all, this GM's personality is really elusive, and sometimes no one knows what he will do next. After saying that, he didn't dwell on this detail anymore, reached out and knocked lightly on the door.

I heard a knock on the door, and a voice of questioning came from inside the door: "Who?" "Excuse me, we are a military squad from Nimitz, how long is it from here to the nearest village?" "You are from Nimitz?" seemed to be attracted by the words of the turnip, and there was a thumping sound in the house, and the people inside could be heard talking anxiously about something to put down, and they didn't grasp their strength for a while. Then there was a series of footsteps, only a "squeak" was heard, and the door was opened. Radish saw that it was an old woman wearing an apron who opened the door, and bent down slightly to salute: "Yes, mother-in-law." I am a knight from the Knights of the Holy Sunshine Cross, and behind me are cadets from the Great Library and soldiers from the military department. We're on a mission to get to Southern Griffon, and seeing that it's getting almost noon, we'd like to be able to borrow your kitchen and make something to eat. ”

"Are you from Nimitz?" Hearing this, the old woman's eyes lit up: "Welcome, welcome, there have been no travelers from Nimitz for a long time recently, and last time someone came here and said that something had happened in Nimitz City, but he couldn't tell what it was. Well, since you are soldiers from Nimitz, you should know a lot. Speaking of this, the old woman patted her head: "Look, I forgot what I said, come on, come on, everyone, please come in, and I will raise the fire." So saying, he opened the door, turned and walked directly into the house, and put the firewood he had just taken out into the stove again, and in a short time the already small flame was ignited.

Several people walked into the house. The house wasn't big, but it was big enough for a few people to sit. Seeing that the old woman lit the fire, several people thanked them and took out the salted meat noodle cake, preparing to make some salted meat noodle soup that was often made by the army. Seeing that the water in the pot above the stove began to gurgle and bubble, several people held the bacon in their hands, cut it into small pieces with a knife and put it into the water. "This salted meat is so hard that I don't want to hold it and gnaw on it. Tietou looked at the salted meat in his hand that had been cut into slices of meat like a knife like wood, and said to the radish next to him, "It's better to cook it and eat it." ”

The old woman saw that they had already put their things in, and brought a few potatoes and carrots: "Officers from Nimitz, do you need some vegetables?"

That's good, little York nodded repeatedly, and then took out the money bag he hung around his waist from behind him: "Old woman, how do you sell this vegetable? Let's buy some." "I don't need you to give me money. The old man handed the potatoes and carrots directly: "I just want to know some recent things in Nimitz, if I can tell me something about what's going on in this city, these vegetables will be given to you." ”

Looking at the vegetables without a bit of soil, several people speculated that this should be the ingredients prepared by the old man for lunch. Since the old man said so, little York looked at the turnip, reached out and took the vegetable and handed it to the iron head sitting next to him, who took the vegetable brush and peeled off the skin a few times, and then cut it into small pieces and put it in the pot. In the meantime, Radish and Little York chatted with the old man: "Old man, I don't know what you want to know." The old man had a look of anticipation in his eyes: "I heard something happened in Nimitz?" Radish nodded: "That's the case." Do you want to know about that?" "No, no, no, I mean," the old woman quickly interrupted the turnip's words, and said, "Since something big happened to Nimitz, it shouldn't be at war with other countries at this time, right?

"Militia ......" suddenly heard this word, and everyone's movements were stunned, even the iron head that usually lacks roots and tendons was a little silent. Radish thought for a moment, and asked softly, "I don't know if I can understand something, why do you care about this matter?"

The old woman clapped her hands: "It's not the ...... of my house" was about to say something, when there was movement outside the door: "Susan, are you there? Is anyone coming?" Hearing the voice, the old woman got up apologetically: "Everyone, please wait a moment." Then he walked to the door and opened the door: "This is my daughter-in-law, I should have seen the smoke and came to take a look." Open the door: "Sure enough, it's you." It just so happened that officers and scholars from Nimitz were passing by and borrowing the kitchen, and we were about to talk about Nimitz. ”

"Really?" the woman seemed to have not thought of this, and was a little surprised: "I said why did you raise the fire again, and I thought something had happened, so I came to take a look." "So that's the case, a few people sitting inside waved their hands to say hello, thinking. Hearing that everyone was from Nimitz, the woman also walked in, took a stool from the side and sat down, with the same expectation in her eyes as the old woman before.
