Chapter Forty-Eight: Homecoming
Forman was released from the iron cage, listlessly standing under the steps of the castle with a magic wand, he was released not because the matter was resolved, but because Yang Yi needed him to be a witness, don't get me wrong, it was not Prince Jones and Belle's wedding, but to witness Prince Jones's allegiance to Yang Yi, the knight lord.

The prince owes allegiance to a knight...... It's a big joke, but this joke really happened, Yang Yi, the knight lord, stood with his head held high, and Prince Jones was half-kneeling on the ground, holding a sword. Yang Yi was very satisfied, glanced at the crowd of onlookers, old Movis, Belle, the attendants and servants who had turned back into human bodies, coughed and asked, "In front of the goddess of magic, Mistra, are you willing to swear allegiance to me, be my loyal guardian for the rest of your life, and serve me with your courage, force and wisdom?"
Prince Jones said solemnly: "I, Prince Jones, swear to the goddess of magic Mistra, and today I swear allegiance to my lord under the witness of the magician Forman, Lord Yang Yi, the knight of Lockeshire, and I am determined to be loyal and never leave my side. From today onwards, I will fight for the dignity and will of Yang Yi Knight to resist temptation and darkness until I die......"
Yang Yi is very satisfied, he believes that Prince Jones is sincere, after all, Prince Jones has experienced a baptism of magic, and swore in front of the magic wand and Forman, the magician, that is, he is truly loyal to him, I didn't expect Lao Tzu to have this day, and he can also accept the younger brother, Jones is the prince of the beast in Beauty and the Beast, not to mention that he also got an inventor.
Yang Yi, a knight, accepts the prince's allegiance, there is no psychological obstacle at all, first of all, he is not a native of this world, in one, the down-and-out phoenix is not as good as a chicken, and the down-and-out prince is not as good as a dog, Prince Jones can't be a dog, so many years have passed, his country is long gone, the territory has long been occupied by others, and the castle is still in the forest, after recovering his body, there is no supply of magic, Prince Jones also has to eat, and he also has more than a dozen servants, if there is no one to take refuge, he can starve to death.
Yang Yi pretended to take the sword in Prince Jones's hand, touched Prince Jones' shoulder three times with the back of the sword, coughed, and according to the rules, presented Prince Jones with a proverb: "My noble warrior, let us swear together." We fight only for justice and justice, never for wealth, and never for selfish reasons. We want to help all those in need, and we need to support each other. We are to be gentle with the weak, but we are to punish the wicked severely. ”
This passage comes from what the famous King Arthur said to his knights at the round table, which is very enthusiastic and level, Yang Yi deliberately searched for this original sentence when he watched the movie, but he didn't expect it to be used, he didn't think there was anything wrong with saying this passage at all, after all, there is no King Arthur in this world.
After the allegiance ceremony, Prince Jones stood up, and Yang Yi handed him the long sword in his hand and said, "Samurai, how can you do it without a sword? ”
The sword is a family heirloom sword of Prince Jones, which is inlaid with precious stones, which is very precious and sharp, Prince Jones did not expect that Yang Yi did not covet his sword, and he was a little moved, and said: "You are a knight, how can you not have a sword that matches your identity? I am your warrior, and I can kill the enemy with an ordinary sword." ”
Yang Yi smiled, patted Jones on the shoulder and said: "Only the boss who has no interest will covet the things under his hands, I won't tell you, not only does my knight not have a decent sword, but I don't even have a decent armor, but please believe me, I will definitely get better swords and armor from others, and Jones, sooner or later, one day I will let you regain control of this land, and you will become the new king and continue the honor of the Jones family." ”
Prince Jones didn't know that Yang Yi had the confidence to say such big words, so he lowered his head and took the sword, and said softly: "If there really is such a day, the Jones family will serve you for generations." ”
"As long as you and I work together, I'm sure it will, okay, that's all for later, we should hurry, Jones, we've almost brought all the things we should have brought......, right?
"I don't have much to take with me except for some books. Prince Jones looked at the people around him, his attendants and servants set up two carriages, which contained some valuables and books in the castle, and there was nothing left, Yang Yi got four horses from King Black, two for pulling carts, two for camel gold coins, and his knight lord was about to walk again.
"Let's go, let's go, you will soon find out that Lockecounty will be the richest place in the world......" Yang Yi led a white horse pulling gold coins forward, the sullen Forman led another horse to follow, and the rest of the people drove the carriage and walked in the direction of Lockecounty in the sun......
A month later, the group returned to Rock County, when they left, there were only two people, Yang Yi and Fuman, and there was no one to see them off, but when they came back, they brought back more than a dozen people, as well as two horses and two carriages, especially in the team, there was a majestic and mighty man wearing armor and holding a sword.
For the old hats of Rock County, their knight lord has undoubtedly created a miracle, and he is no longer blind to Yang Yi when he sees him, at least he is a little polite, those who wear hats take off their hats and salute, and those who do not wear hats bend down, Yang Yi feels a little arrogant, but he knows that this kind of politeness is only superficial, and there is still a long way to go if he wants to truly submit to the people of Rock County.
The attendants and servants who followed Jones were very disappointed, they just listened to Yang Yi bragging, what would Lockecounty become the greatest and richest place, thinking that following this knight lord was here to enjoy happiness, but they didn't expect Lockecounty to be so poor, but they have already come, what else can they do?
This disappointment reached its peak after arriving at the manor, looking at the dilapidated two-story building and the barren yard, everyone's expressions were very dull, but for Yang Yi, seeing the dilapidated manor, a warm feeling emerged in his heart, after all, this is the place where he settled, it is his home, for a wanderer, home is always the warmest place.
Especially when crossing into such a strange world, for Yang Yi, who has been terrified in his heart, home is irreplaceable, when Old Sero and Irene, as well as seven dwarfs, and four 2 ran out to greet him excitedly, the warmth in his heart immediately filled his whole body, Yang Yi was even more sure that he must let Erin and Old Sero live a good life, and protect them, because they are his family.
"Dear knight, I thought you wouldn't be able to come back for the New Year, oh, you're still back, great......" Old Sero and Erin only had Yang Yi in their eyes, and they didn't even see so many people brought behind him, the carriage, and the horse with gold coins on it.
For the customs here, Yang Yi also knows a little bit, there is also a New Year in the fairy tale world, in the coldest days of every year, the last day of December is the birth day of the goddess of magic Mistra, this day is celebrated by all people, and it is also recognized as a new year, after the New Year, the weather will be warmer, and the new year will begin.
"Old Sero, don't be so excited, haven't I come back well, by the way, the people behind me are my faithful warrior Jones and his attendants, you and Erin help them prepare a place to sleep, and you will work together in the future, by the way, we haven't eaten yet, so let's get some dinner." ”
"Dear lord, we only have the last bag of radishes and rye left, sorry!"
Yang Yi smiled: "Old Sero, please believe me, from now on we don't have to eat radishes and rye anymore." ”
Dinner, of course, was radish soup and rye baked black cakes, Yang Yi couldn't eat it anymore after a few bites, and told Erin and Old Sero to settle down with Jones and his group, and returned to the study, Yang Yi sat by the fireplace and pondered, and the square slice 2 thief head thief came in, and asked a little embarrassedly: "Dear knight master, when will you change the rules?"
It's time to have an explanation for the four 2s, Yang Yi said to Fang 2: "Let me have a good New Year, and after the New Year, I promise you that you will definitely promote the landlord, so that you 2 will raise your eyebrows." ”
Fang Pian 2 was very content, and happily wanted to retreat, but Yang Yi stopped Fang Pian and asked him to inform Forman, Old Sero, Podol, Jones, and Old Movis to come to his study for a meeting, Fang Pian 2 agreed to come down, withdrew, and after waiting for a long time, several men came to Yang Yi's study.
These people are all Yang Yi's family background, but there are not enough chairs to sit on, Yang Yi sighed, let everyone sit casually, Podol sat on the ground, old Sero and old Movis sat on the bed, Forman and Jones stood, Yang Yi was silent, under the firelight of the fireplace, he said: "Don't tell everyone, we now have 11,000 gold coins." ”
"I'm dripping the sky!" The frightened old Sero couldn't help but exclaim, he really didn't expect that Yang Yi would bring back 11,000 gold coins after going out, what a sum of money that was, Old Sero calculated, enough for Yang Yi and these people to live a lifetime.
Prince Jones was also surprised, but after all, he was born as a prince, and the surprise was not obvious, Belle's father, Old Movis, was different, his beard trembled with excitement, it seems that the knight lord's promise to hire him one gold coin a month was not to fool him, Yang Yi nodded at everyone with a smile and said: " The people of Lockecounty have been poor for a long time, and it is almost the New Year, so I decided that the people of Lockecounty will be counted as one, and each person will give ten silver coins, so that everyone can have a good New Year, and let everyone know that with me, the knight lord, a good life is waiting for them......"
