Chapter 94: The Resurgence of Strife (2)
"Clever Ghost" Green never felt how clever he was, and he felt that he should be called "" Green.
That
When he heard that the new lord was going to recruit servants, he immediately signed up when the people around him were still hesitating, and he was only twelve years old, lied that he was fourteen years old, and then successfully entered the castle.
......
The castle has been a dream place in his heart since he was a child, and he feels that the sun must be the most abundant there.
Sufficient to,
Let him get rid of all kinds of "rotten people" who have been entangled around him since he was a child.
So when he stayed at the castle on his first night, he excitedly whispered to the stars in the sky for a long time.
However, the next day, another news spread, which directly made him stunned on the spot.
......
"The lord has recruited all the people, and those who are not adults can join the recruits, and even have the opportunity to become a noble knight. ”
The little fat man in charge of handling horse manure raised his eyebrows and said to him.
"Wouldn't we have a chance?" Green, who had reacted, asked in surprise.
"Don't think about it, when Beet went to ask Kunna, he was scolded by Kunna. ”
Then, the little fat man followed the example of Kunna, crossed his waist, and said with a puffy red face,
"What's so bad about serving the lord?How dare you think about anything else?When will the servant be able to bargain with the lord?Do you think the lord isn't good enough for you, or is it too good?......
The little fat man's words made Green's hope extinguish like a candle blown by a cold wind.
......
"Yes, when will the servant be able to bargain with the lord, and besides, the lord always has to be served. ”
Although he kept scolding himself in his heart, "Green, Green, you are a big fool, a big stupid." ”
However, the experience of crawling and rolling since childhood still made him face reality quickly.
"The servant is not without a chance, if he becomes a steward, the whole outer city can walk sideways," he remembered that the castle steward had gone to the outer city, and that swaggering appearance was more flamboyant than the knight he had seen.
Thinking so,
When others were still complaining, he immediately regrouped, not lazy, not his job, and did not shirk, like a squirrel busy for the winter, running before and after.
I just hope that one day the lord will notice that there is a "diligent" Green here.
......
However, before the lord noticed him, the food delivery uncle found him first.
"Little Green, there's an accident in your house again......"
The food delivery uncle's gaze was evasive, and he didn't dare to look at himself at all.
"They're them again?"
Little Green's tears flowed out instantly, and teardrops like beans fell down.
He thought that he had come to the castle and that it was enough to escape the darkness.
Although the food delivery uncle hesitated, he finally nodded.
"Little Green, you should understand that people like us can't escape them, they control all the thieves, prostitutes, debt collectors, and murderers in the city...... Even with those who are powerful. The food delivery uncle sighed and said, "What's more, you used to be one of them." ”
"I don't want to, and I'm not one of them. ”
Green could hear tremors, anger, and fear in his voice.
There are a few civilian children in the city who are targeted by them, and there are a few who can escape the fate of being thieves, not to mention that they have a prostitute's sister.
Looking at the unbearable food delivery uncle, Little Green wiped his tears and said with a pretended smile, "Uncle, go back, I already know the news." ”
The food delivery uncle let out a long sigh again, just like the main theme of their fate, full of helplessness.
"Pests shouldn't be ...... Hungry for sunshine. ”
......
After hearing the news of the accident at home, Little Green was going to immediately ask Kunna for leave and leave the castle.
However, he suddenly remembered that he had deliberately missed his hand, endured several beatings, and coupled with his sister's pleading, he had not stolen anything for them for a long time, and he was considered 'innocent' for a while.
Now that he had just entered the castle, they found him, and asked the food delivery uncle who knew him to come to the news of the accident at home.
Then, what they have to do for themselves is probably not as simple as stealing things.
Little Green hesitated for a long time, and finally turned back to the kitchen, as if nothing had just happened.
"First of all, I am safe in the castle, and no one dares to kill in the castle of Lord Lord.
Secondly, if I don't go out, they won't dare to really do anything to my family in a short time, and they won't dare to bet on whether I can or not, dare not tell the lord......"
Of course, "stupid ghost" Green didn't dare to tell the lord.
Because when he signed up to be a servant, he secretly hid a lot of things, he was not only a deceiver, a thief, but now he was involved with a group of guys in the shadows...... This is enough for him to go to the gallows, and even involve his entire family.
......
In this way, the "stupid ghost" Green has been hiding from them for more than 20 days, and even every time the food delivery uncle comes, he runs away in advance.
"Coercion always begins with a dialogue, and I will not talk to you. Little Green made a reason for his actions.
But today, the other party has obviously lost patience, and the food delivery uncle waited for him for a long time, until he appeared, and then handed him a finger - saying that it was his father's finger.
......
"I see," said little Green suddenly and calmly after crying for a while.
"It's just a finger, and many of my fellow thieves have had their fingers cut off. He was so relieved in his heart.
After sending away the food delivery uncle, Little Green took out his harvest of these days from his arms - a stainless steel dagger.
The dagger was a bet he made with a soldier from the North, who didn't believe he could walk the central atrium upside down with both hands.
And he did, so he got his loot.
This stainless steel dagger is not the wooden toy he used to play with, but a guy who can actually kill, as evidenced by the cuts on the pork.
He also gave the dagger a name - the howl of the fat pig.
Then, he took out a "picked up" oil stone, learned from the soldiers in the north, and polished it seriously again and again.
