Chapter 8 Recuperation
In his confusion, Green seems to have a long dream, in which he stands on a wide road, and the crowd isolates him in a blank circle.
He fiercely questioned the crowd loudly, and the faces turned their heads mechanically, looking at him expressionlessly.
More and more people began to turn their heads, and in every building, behind every window, there was a face looking at him with a blank face.
All of them opened their mouths together, repeating the phrase, "monster", "monster".
"No...... I'm not a monster, I'm not!" Green clutched his head in pain.
Slowly, everyone disappeared, as if the words on the blackboard had been erased little by little.
In a trance, Green started another dream, in which there was Wolf, the old housekeeper, and a woman with blue eyes like him, gently holding him in his arms and humming softly: "Little Green, Little Green, grow up, grow up quickly~ not afraid of hardships and dangers, not afraid of wind and frost~ The brave little wolf travels all over the world~"
Under the gentle care, Green fell into a deep sleep again.
When he woke up again, Green found himself lying on the bed, covered in bandages.
As soon as he wanted to get up, a sharp pain immediately came from his chest, and he couldn't help but scream in pain.
Hearing the sound, a maid immediately pushed the door in, and when she saw that Green was awake, she hurriedly walked up to stop him from trying to get up.
"Young Master Green, the doctor has ordered, your injuries need to be cultivated, and you must not move, otherwise the wounds will crack again. ”
"What time is it?, what's going on at the castle?", since she couldn't move, Green had to ask her about the situation outside.
"Young master, you have been in a coma for two days, but rest assured that everything is fine in the castle, the master has returned. ”
Hearing that Wolf had returned, Green breathed a sigh of relief, with him there, the castle should not be a problem.
Before he knew it, he had come to see Wolftooth Castle as if it were his real home.
The maid helped him re-wrap the quilt and quietly withdrew.
After a while, the old butler walked in with the doctor, looked at the bandaged Green, and said guiltily: "If I hadn't let him out of the city, the young master wouldn't have been so seriously injured......"
Green grinned and comforted, "Grandpa Ham doesn't have to blame himself, isn't it okay for me." ”
After calling a doctor to examine himself, Green nervously asked, "How is my injury?
"Young master, don't worry, your injuries are not serious, they are all skin injuries, and they don't hurt your bones. The main reason is that the detachment is too much, and the body can't bear it before he faints. ”
Looking at the bandages all over his body, Green smiled bitterly, "Then when can I get out of bed and walk around?"
"The young master's physique is very good, he recovers quickly, and the master has also bought you a lot of expensive medicines, and you can get out of bed in five days, as long as you don't exercise vigorously. ”
Hearing this, Green breathed a sigh of relief.
Then the doctor gave some precautions, and then withdrew with the maid.
Only the old butler and Green were left in the room.
"How's my father?"
"The old man is also a little injured, but it is not in the way. This trip not only cut off both of Baron Luke's claws, but also bit off a bite of flesh from him. ”
"That's good, so that the crisis in the castle is finally resolved. ”
"At present, this is the case, but this time the true strength of Andrew's family has been exposed, and the matter of iron ore cannot be hidden, the growth of Andrew's family is inevitable, but the lords of the surrounding territories don't seem to want to sit back and watch Andrew's family develop..."The old butler muttered.
"It's just some dirty chickens and dogs. Green said disdainfully, as if remembering something, "By the way, what happened to the knight that day, and why was it different from what we planned?"
Speaking of this, a trace of anger flashed on the old butler's face, "It's Jerryan, he colluded with outsiders to open the city gate." Otherwise, I wouldn't have put the young master in that kind of danger!"
Immediately afterwards, the old butler recounted the situation of that day in detail, and said that in the last battle between Green and Mad Dog Jack, he couldn't help but be afraid for a while.
Green was also a fluke in his heart, if it weren't for the mad dog Green who was already seriously injured, he didn't even have much fighting spirit left, and in the end, he still had the idea of capturing him alive and using him as a hostage, if he had left some strength, I am afraid that he would have died.
Then the old butler sighed again, "Although Rex has always said that the young master's fighting talent is very good, I didn't expect to be able to defeat the opponent in that situation. ”
Speaking of the Jedi counterattack that day, Green also had a clear understanding in his heart, that move Swift Wolf Aurora Fang was probably already the limit of his mind-body skills, so that he could grasp that chance of victory under the final killing move of a knight-level powerhouse.
"Alright, then you can recuperate in peace. I still have some finishing touches to take care of these days, so I can't come and see you. ”
......
The following days were spent in a relaxed atmosphere, with people waiting carefully every day, all kinds of expensive medicines were constantly delivered, and his body was recovering rapidly.
During this period, Wolf also came to visit several times, and saw that Green was recuperating well, so he was relieved, and finally told Green not to practice Douqi during this time, so as not to affect his recovery.
Since waking up, Green's body has been empty, and if he can't cultivate, he can only wait for his fighting spirit to accumulate little by little.
After being able to go to the ground, Green, who had nothing to do, could only soak in the library every day, so that he had a deeper understanding of the world of Feywood, and Green now knew that the world was extremely vast. The town he is in is only a township near Blackstone City, and Blackstone City is just an ordinary city in Asaph County, and there are provinces above it.
The Xiling Empire has a total of 23 provinces, a vast territory, and a population of more than 100 million. In addition to the Xiling Empire, there are also large countries such as the Thors Federation and the Holy Oran Empire, and there are countless small countries in between, and it is rumored that there are other continents overseas...
At this moment, Green felt like a tiny ant in this huge world, threatening to be crushed to death by the rolling wheels at any time.
Beyond this basic information, Green didn't get any more useful information. The background of Andrew's family is still too shallow, a small lord and knight family, and most of the books in the collection are ordinary goods, and the description of extraordinary power is only superficial.
At this moment, Green desperately needs systematic learning to help him understand supernatural powers.
It's just that he didn't expect this opportunity to come soon.
......
In the evening, Wolf's study.
"Knight Academy?"
"That's right, the knight academy in the provincial capital admits fifteen hundred students every year, and I got a place for you. In a month's time, the school year will start, and I'll send someone to see you there. ”
Green can fully imagine how much Wolf has spent for this place, judging from the situation of this world, it is either rich or expensive to become an extraordinary, and a civilian family simply cannot afford to support the consumption of a transcendent.
And to grab this place in the hands of so many powerful people, this is not a small amount, and I am afraid that it will be nerve-wracking in terms of the financial resources of the Andrew family.
As if to see Green's thoughts, Wolf waved his hand and said, "The old butler has already told me, with your fighting talent, continuing to stay here will only delay you, only the Knight Academy with a cloud of experts can provide you with better development." For this, what is some money? ”
"You kept calling Mom when you were unconscious... And humming a little song that Winnie sings when she lulls you to sleep. There was a hint of tenderness in Worf's eyes, "Now that the little wolf has grown up, it's time to go to the four directions." ”
"Father... I'll try. Standing up, Green bowed deeply to Worf.
The two talked for a while, and Green, seeing the tiredness in Worf's eyes, withdrew and left.
Just as he pushed the door open, Green suddenly turned around and asked, "By the way, what's going on with the haunting of the mines?"
"Well, according to the shoes you provided that day, the ghost worker has been found, and he has confessed to being bribed by Baron Luke, and is now locked up in the castle's dungeon. “
......
The next day, Green went to the dungeon early in the morning.
Here, Green met several familiar faces, Jerryanne, the steward of the stables, and the maid who had fornicated with the steward.
Seeing that there was no accident in the steward Green, he had always suspected that someone was playing tricks in his horse crash, and the steward who was in charge of managing the horses was undoubtedly the biggest suspect, and now it seemed that he was afraid that he had already been bribed.
Jaryan, who was locked alone in a room, rushed to the door the moment he saw Green, crying and begging him for help, "Brother Green, please save me, have you forgotten that we grew up together?
Just a casual glance at him, Green ignored him, and let the cry for mercy grow louder and louder until it turned into a curse from Exhaustion.
Arriving at the cell where the pretending miner was being held, Green ordered the cell boss to open the door.
Looking at the man lying on the ground under torture in front of him, Green's heart sank, this figure was completely different from the white figure he had seen that day. Calling the cell boss to bring a confession, Green looked at it carefully, and explained in detail how he had been bribed and pretended to be a ghost in the mine to cause panic, but he didn't say a word about the dead miner.
Recalling the strange experience in the mine that day, Green felt that it might not be easy.
Most importantly, he clearly felt that the system in his mind at that time had a subtle reaction.
I'm afraid I'll have to go back again...
Moreover, Green was also curious about why the dead miner would sneak into the mine alone at night, and what connection did this have to do with the dried blood he saw that day?
Green's instincts told him that perhaps the key to the haunting of the mine was him.
When he returned, Green approached the old butler and asked him to help him investigate the miner.
It was strange why Green would be interested in a dead miner, but the old butler sent someone to investigate.
A few days later, a document was delivered to Green.
