Chapter 7 National Fitness Starts with Me
Winter is the most boring season, Arthur sits by the fireplace and roasts the fire, with Qin Chuan lying at his feet, winter was supposed to be the most noisy time for huskies, but after being locked out for 2 days, even if he no longer has a brain, he knows what the master means.
It's snowing heavily, and it doesn't last long in the original world, but it seems to be a common thing here.
The maid Shalene is teaching the witch Jessica how to knit a sweater, but she doesn't look like a clever person, and everything she knits is a bit of a short skirt. Arthur, who had nothing to do and was bored and had some fun, bluntly pointed out that the hostility between the two women had to be temporarily stopped. Careless, he sat down beside Arthur. "The envoy of the kingdom should be coming soon, as long as you take over as the baron, then next year's king's call will have to respond, the baron will have at least 5 knights and 300 soldiers, we don't have enough here at all. β
Arthur nodded slightly, which was also his hidden concern. His father, Yalin, did not respond to the call because he had contributed to the kingdom, and this special privilege had expired after his father's death. In the past few years, Viscount Wayne has been acting as an agent for Sith Town, and he has always been the one who has been out of the picture.
The damned steward took all the money, had no money to buy horses and equipment, and there were not enough people, but not responding to the call was treason.
The fireplace was lit up, and Arthur closed his eyes slightly, searching his memory for a suitable solution. "That's it, Xiaobei, anyway, everyone has nothing to do in winter, except for eating and drinking is gambling money, it's better to let them exercise and exercise, anyway, they are all going to go to the battlefield next year, and they must always train their ability to save their lives, even if they can't fight, they always have to run." β
"Well... OK. β
Arthur was thinking about other things, and it was better to make it interesting, otherwise these lazy people wouldn't train seriously.
Except for certain people who get up early every day, the rest of the people in this world get up at 8.9 o'clock in the morning, and then start their day slowly, which is completely different from the people in their own world.
Eating and waiting for death every day, or burying yourself in making children with your wife, and letting them work and continue to make children after they are raised, this is a bad vicious circle.
He understands what these people think, this world is more inclined to the Western Middle Ages, the aristocracy and the church control life and death, the people who accept their fate bow their heads and let the oppression have no strength to resist, and the most shameful thing is that there is still the dark right of the first night, which is the fuse of rebellion. Baron Arin and Arthur were favored by everyone because they had never exercised this right, and there were no slaves in the land, and no one chose to leave, although they were poor but happy.

Early the next morning, Arthur and Bediwell stood in the square in single clothes (this was Arthur's request), and Qin Chuan walked back and forth around Arthur's feet, looking very excited, sticking out his tongue from time to time. Charlene and Jessica were still standing beside them with a rope tied to it, and no one knew what Baron Arthur wanted to do.
The mayor of the town got up early in the morning and called all the men between the ages of 10 and 45 to gather in the square, and the baron had something to say.
"My lord, it's all here. The mayor said, cowering.
The leaders were shivering from the cold in thick clothes, but the makeup of the two adults was really interesting.
"Father's privilege is gone, and I decided to take you to train in order to go to the battlefield next year to ensure that you don't die, so we might as well do a competition. Seeing that my dog is not, he will run around the whole territory of the Sith who will be able to catch him halfway, and my beautiful maid Shalene will provide lunch and dinner for his whole family today, all according to my standards, of course. β
"Oh~" the audience shouted frantically, the baron's meal was equal to their New Year's standard.
"Everyone, be quiet, I'm not done yet, not only that, but there is also a prize of 5 silver coins, but if my dog wins, then I'm sorry, I can only ask everyone to run another lap in the territory. Arthur threw another bombshell.
"Great baron, my goodness. "Everybody is crazy.
Bedwell, Charlene, and Jessica looked at him with some headaches, they had no money and spent a few handfuls of money. Charlene gave him a desperate look, but Arthur didn't react.
Arthur looked at Qin Chuan at his feet, how could this dog be a descendant of a wolf no matter what he said, Qin Chuan howled at him twice, Arthur squatted down and whispered in his ear: "Qin Chuan, if you lose, according to Sha Lin's door-picking character, your life will be in danger." β
"Huh~" Qin Chuan lay on the ground and moaned in a low voice. For the sake of a dog's life, Qin Chuan decided to fight to the death.
"Let's go. With the mayor's order, a group of big men in Sith Town chased a black and white dog all the way, and they now knew why the two adults went out wearing only single clothes, and the barony was at least a dozen miles away, and the outside was covered with heavy snow and no knees, and every step required a lot of energy. The lord's dog is like a loose horse, a frightened wild donkey, running wild.
The first Sith Town National Games began so hastily...
Arthur's fitness was not bad, and Bedwell had been following him to throw out the people behind him, and the two slowed down after all, victory meant nothing to the two.
Arthur looked with interest at the tall woods covered in silver, and was about to arrive at Lord Frank's domain. The past gradually came back to his mind, although the memories did not belong to him.
"In the early years of the lake, you and Shalene accidentally fell into the lake here, and they haven't been there since. Bedwell pointed to the surface of the lake, which was covered in heavy snow.
This side of the lake is a rare place in the territory where fish are abundant, and it can only be fished at the most urgent moment, and it belongs to the last life-saving food, which Baron Yalin specially explained before his death. But this year there are almost no fish in it.
With childhood memories in mind, he shook his head with a smile. The young master and the young maid, the two little Wuchai played around the lake, and after falling into the lake, Baron Arin jumped into the river to save Arthur, the lake was not deep but resisted because of fear.
...
Arthur looked at the crowd behind him, panting. After all, these people are still a little less bloody.
"How far does a life have to go, how many years have passed, how long does it take to reach the end, how long does it take for a dream, how much blood and tears, to slowly come true, between heaven and earth, let me spread my wings and fly high, who said that it is a naΓ―ve prophecy, waving his crazy hands in the wind, writing brilliant poems, no matter how tired he is, how many changes the tide comes and goes, welcoming the glorious years, dedicating his life to it..."Arthur suddenly sang loudly.
His singing voice was fierce and powerful, inspiring the people behind him who were gradually losing their strength and panting, some of whom had even begun to take off their clothes, and others hummed and sang the unknown song softly, as if they had strength again.
Young people always have dreams in their hearts, and even if they are oppressed by heavy burdens, the ideals in their hearts will never be erased.
The young lord Arthur looked back at the lords behind him, and continued to sing his favorite song loudly, and Bediwell next to him also sang loudly, although he didn't know when his friend actually had the talent of a bard, but he was sincerely happy, his voice gradually became louder and more uniform, and the number of people gradually increased, and the three lords also joined the team with people...
Free will, one day, like an eagle, spreads its wings and flies high.
