The sound of "click, click!" felling came and went;
Amazed a few birds!
A winding path that leads from a village not far away, lined with dense woods, clumps of low weeds with dew on them;
The summer sun shines through the shade of the forest, turning into pillars of light and falling on the forest beautifully, while on the other side, as more trees are cut down and falling, a glade slowly forms;
It has become an amusement park for the sun, and the forest no longer looks dark
The tall, thin lumberjack with sweat on his forehead and naked upper body chopping down tall trees with his axe mechanically and sluggishly!
The last axe is slashed down with force:
"Oh~ballast!" the big tree slowly tilted and fell:
"Bang!"
"Whew~" The lumberjack is ready to take a break;
Then:
"When, when, when!" the crisp chime sounded;
The tall and thin man glanced up at the village not far away, then put down the axe in his hand and walked towards the middle of the village with the other lumberjacks. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
His name is Barry, he is from Oak County, and his family has all died in the Devil's Scourge;
At first, he would still miss and be sad, but now he doesn't feel much:
'What if they're still alive?' The best outcome is to become a slave to some nobleman like they are now, right?'
With a mess in his mind, he returned to the village;
It was a village, but Barry thought it would be more appropriate to call it a barracks, or a slave camp, because there were 20 soldiers and 80 slaves!
This is not a normal village without ordinary villagers!
At this time, a lot of people had already gathered here, and he came late, who made the logging place the farthest from the center of the village?!
He first went to the edge of the pool and washed his face and hands, then took a wooden plate from the table beside him, and stood at the back of the long line;
A little man leaned over:
"Barry, have you heard?"
Barry turned his head to see Jim, who was in the same shed as himself, a small slave, and asked with a wink:
"Know what?"
Jim had a pair of small eyes and smiled:
"I guess you haven't heard!" With a narrow smile on his face, he looked at the strong Barry, secretly jealous of his tall size, and asked with a slight smile as his eyes rolled:
"Do you want to know?"
"As long as you give me a third of your food later, I'll tell you!"
"How?"
Barry didn't ask him 'sincerely' as he thought, just glanced at him and continued to walk forward, there were still ten people in front of him, I don't know if he will be able to eat when it is his turn?
Seeing that Barry didn't mean to take the initiative to ask, the little man Jim was in a hurry, and hurriedly followed:
"Barry, you're so boring!" looked disgusted, and then couldn't help it, before whispering:
"I received the most confidential message!"
"Great merciful lord, be prepared to grant freedom to the best of the best-behaved slaves!Not only that, but also a house to live in, which is a separate room!"
"Oh oh! and a woman!"
Barry didn't care what the little man had to say, but what did he hear?
Freedom!Separate house!A woman who can pass on the lineage!
Turning his head suddenly, he had no heart to eat, so he grabbed the little man Jim and walked aside, and asked eagerly:
"Little Jim, is what you just said true?!Is the lord really going to do this?!"
The smugness in his heart couldn't be suppressed, and Jim tried hard to keep his serious appearance, but the corners of his mouth that kept upturning betrayed his heart:
"Hey~"
Barry was in such a hurry, if it weren't for the guards guarding the lord next to him, he really wanted to hang up this little man with an appetite and beat him!
But at this time, I can only ask again:
"My dear Jim, is what you just said true?" and then added:
"Why didn't I hear this?"
Jim nodded contentedly, he didn't dare to offend the big man Barry, so he coughed lightly and said:
"Naturally it's true! Couldn't the clever Jim tell the difference between the real and the fake?" and then gave Barry a wink:
"As for why you haven't heard of it?"
Barry's heart jumped, he licked his lips and asked a crucial question:
"Great merciful lord, on what basis are you going to be selected?"
Jim doesn't know this question, or there's not a standard for it yet, but who is he? Clever Jim!
He pretended to be confident, coughed lightly, and said in a long voice:
"As for the selection criteria, there are of course them!"
"And the clever Jim knows it very well!"
Barry's eyes were blazing as he looked at the little man in the same shed, and for a moment he felt that Jim was so tall! he couldn't wait to hear what he had to say;
Barry swears he's never been so serious, not even when he eats delicious roast bunnies together!
Jim enjoyed Barry's admiring gaze while thinking of an excuse in his heart!
Pregnant!
He coughed again before he said:
"The criterion for the selection of the great merciful lord is: to see who does the most work!"
"Yes!
"The one who does the most work will be promoted by the great and merciful lord!"
With that, Jim gave a careful look at the tall Barry to see if he had found a flaw, but luckily everything went well!
He glanced at the stupid big man with slight disdain in his heart, sneered slightly in his heart, and swaggered away, and then he was going to find another stupid guy to show off!
Clever Jim is, well, smart!
Barry hadn't noticed Jim's departure, or that he didn't care! all he knew now was that he was in good chance of being chosen by the great merciful sir!
Why?
Because in the whole slave camp, no one did more work than him!
Even the Honorable Interior Minister, who once praised himself, what did he say at the time? Ah, think about it, it's very important!
That's right!
Here's what the Venerable Lord said at the time:
"Well, yes, I actually cut so much wood by myself!"
"Hey~" Barry's mouth couldn't help but crack:
"Freedom, house, woman!"
"Hey~"

in the barracks hall;
George sat on the main seat, pinched his brows, wanted to build a perfect village, there were a lot of things, he felt that his level 4 warrior's body was actually a little unbearable;
'It would be good to wait for this time!' said silently in his heart;
Feeling a little more comfortable, he opened his eyes and looked at the team leader standing under the stage, and said:
"Captain Moby, do the slaves already know about the promotion reward?"
Mobi says:
"Yes, Your Excellency, the news has been spread"
"It can be seen that all the slaves have become more proactive!"
The corners of his mouth curled slightly, and George nodded with satisfaction:
"That's fine, then let's sort out the appropriate list as soon as possible, and announce it when the next time Sir comes"
"Also, arrange for a few people to build 5 independent houses," he said, and found a drawing on the table and handed it to Moby:
"This is the drawing, you can arrange it"
Moby bowed and said:
"Yes, Your Excellency!"
