Chapter 21 Rules
Sally arrives at the family's training ground and sees Mr. Max training his knightly squire. It was because of the professor's experience that Max was arranged by the Earl to teach the skills of the Sully knighthood.
"Mr. Max!"
Max made a gesture and motioned for the knights to practice on their own, and walked over to Sally.
"Young Master!" Max exclaimed respectfully, now Sally is no longer the little knight squire he used to be, he has truly been recognized by the family knights!
"Mr. Max, you know about the Haunted House in Sawyer. Without beating around the bush, Sully was direct about his intentions.
"Know a little!"
"Let's talk about it!"
"When three knights of the family were cleaning up the remnants of resistance in Sawyer, they discovered that the abandoned mansion might be hiding resistance, so they went in to search. The few knights who surrendered with him didn't warn them either!As a result, all three knights were lost in it!"
Sally frowned, "Why are the knights who went in with them okay?"
"I don't know, I wasn't there at the time, but the Earl should have asked all the questions before dealing with the knights. โ
"What rank are those three knights?" asked Sally.
"One official knight, two squires at the pinnacle. โ
After thinking for a moment, Sally said, "Where is my father now?"
"The Earl is still in Sawyer!"
"Good!" said Sally, and left directly.
Coming to the stable, Sally took out a war horse at random and walked towards the outside of the manor!
"Young Master, are you going to Sawyer?" said Max when he saw Sally leading a war horse.
"Yes!"
"I'll go with you. โ
"No need. โ
"However, in the event of a remnant of resistance..."
"Then even if they are unlucky, who told them not to have long eyes!"
Max was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, the young master was already a great knight. If you really want to meet the remaining knights of the two families, it can really only be regarded as the other party's bad luck.
When Max was stunned, Sally was already leading the horse across. Max wasn't catching up.
..........
Sully rode his horse and galloped out of Leyte City. Leyte City isn't too far from Sawyer, and it's noon. If it goes well, it will be there in the evening.
.............
In the evening, Sully finally arrived in Sawyer City, which was his second visit. The journey was smooth and I didn't encounter any bandits. This is also normal, now that the Wright family is in the limelight, there is no one who is not long-eyed to touch the brows of the Wright family.
..............
At Sawyer's Manor, a knight takes Sally's horse. The next moment, a servant greeted him.
"Young Master, Lord Earl is waiting for you in the study!"
"Lead the way!" Sally said to his servant as he moved his tired joints.
"Yes!"
....................
"Father!" In the study, Belen sat at his desk, holding a quill in his hand, and was dealing with some trivial matters! You can use force to build a city, but to manage a city well, you can't just rely on force!
"Sally, you're just in time, help me deal with it by the way, anyway, it will be your turn in the future. Belen put down his quill and patted the stack of papers on the table.
"Father, just spare me! You know I don't like to do these things. Sally said with a bitter face.
"Stinky boy! Okay, whatever you want. But when you become the head of the house in the future, you won't be able to escape. Belen said with a smile. Since the last conversation between father and son, Belen's physical condition has gradually improved. Maybe it's because the long-cherished wish is finally coming true, and Belรฉn is also in a very good mood, often joking with Sally, and the relationship between the two is much closer.
"We'll talk about that then!" said Sally.
"But there's another way!" Belen said.
"What's the solution?"
"Find a capable wife, when I first became the head of the house, it was your mother who helped me with these trivial matters. โ
โ...... Let's talk about these things later!" Sally said, changing the subject.
"Okay, then tell me what you're doing in Sawyer, I don't believe you're coming to see me!" said Belen, half-jokingly.
โ...... In fact, over the past ten days, Sally has gradually adapted to the change in his father's personality, but he still feels a little disagreeable.
All along, Belรฉn has left Sully with a serious, serious image. And now, the sudden change has made Sully uncomfortable. This is the true character of Belen! I had to disguise myself because I was carrying too much burden.
"It's because of the haunted house. Sally said.
"Sally, I know you've always been very curious about heresy. But this time, you dismiss that thought. Belen regained his serious face and said seriously.
Sully frowned, he had already thought of this situation on the way here, but there was no good reason to convince his father.
"Father, I didn't want to get involved in that haunted house, I just wanted to learn about the so-called 'ghosts'. โ
"That's good, but I still have to remind you that the former Sawyer family had no shortage of great knights, but they still made it a forbidden area instead of disposing of it. I've sealed it down now, so don't get in there!"
"I see, father!" said Sally earnestly.
"What the hell is there? is it a heresy?" asked Sally on her own initiative.
After thinking for a moment, the Count said, "Call that thing an evil spirit, a ghost, or anything like that." I don't know if it's a heresy, but even if it's a heresy, it's not an ordinary heresy. That thing has no substance, and every evil spirit has its own rules!"
"Rules?"
For example, the evil spirits in that house have the rules of 'knock on the door when you enter the house' and 'don't speak loudly.' โ
Sally frowned, there was such a strange rule.
"Is this rule set by the evil spirit itself, or is it something else?" This question is very important, if it is a rule set by the evil spirit itself, when there is a danger to his life, he may not break the rule, but if it is because of some external factor that cannot be violated, it is different.
"That's exactly what I'm saying. Evil spirits have at least one rule that cannot be violated, but no one knows if the rules explored are the rules that the evil spirit must follow. โ
With that, Sally understands. There are true and false rules of evil spirits, and the rules that are known by people are all artificially explored, and no one knows whether they are true or false.
Sally frowned, saying this, the evil spirit should have a certain amount of wisdom, and it is not low. Will confuse enemies with fake restrictions.
"For example, the thing in the house, it never leaves the house, we can think of it as its rule, 'don't leave the house'. But it's not certain whether it's unable to leave, or unwilling to leave. Belen continued.
