Chapter II: Compulsory Taxation (I)
"My name is Antonio, and I'm an apprentice in magic. Meng Han finally recognized the fact that he had crossed over: "From this day on, no, from now on, my name is Antonio, and I am an apprentice of magic. ”
The darkness in the sky had not yet dissipated, and a low cloud with flashing thunder kept lighting up in the sky. This kind of gloomy weather is completely in line with Meng Han's mood now.
A horse-drawn carriage that looked dilapidated walked slowly on the road. There were already many holes in the carriage's shed, and from those holes, you could still see the electric lights raging in the sky from time to time, and it seemed that it was about to rain, but there was no place to cover it. This is actually a horse-drawn carriage that pulls goods, and even high-end goods are not loaded, but only a carriage loaded with some sundries. Meng Han sat on it.
I seem to remember something. I haven't graduated from college yet, and it was on the way to find a job in the last semester when suddenly lightning and thunder, and then I seemed to have arrived in another world of lightning and thunder. What happened just now, Meng Han had a vague impression, but it was not so clear.
For a long time, Meng Han spent time in a daze, even if he got in the car, he was still covered. However, such a sluggish performance is in line with people's perception of him. A guy who failed in the promotion ceremony of a magic apprentice, does he still want to be elated?
Next, the king of the principality took back the original rich territory that he should inherit, and then threw him the title of lord of a certain land, and sent several officials to send him to take office, Meng Han already remembered very clearly, and even the appearance of the old king. During the whole process, he was absorbing the memories of the original Antonio, and the person became demented, and even the official next to him pressed his head to salute.
It was a large procession, with a row of sumptuous carriages in front, a slightly more modest carriage in the middle, and finally a few carts loaded with miscellaneous goods. Meng Han was thrown in the middle of a pile of debris. If it weren't for the fact that a stone on the road caused the carriage to jolt and Meng Han's head hit the edge of the car, he wouldn't have been able to fully wake up.
Where is this escort, it's simply pulling him up when pulling goods. The lavish carriages in front were surrounded by knights in tall horses and bright armor, and even around the carriages in the middle, there was a group of guys who looked like a group of bodyguards. Only the carriage in which he was riding and a few carriages that were also in tatters, and there was no one to take care of them except for one man who was driving them.
Isn't he a nobleman? Although he knows from memory that he is only a small baron, the lowest title among the nobles that is slightly higher than that of a knight, but he is also a nobleman?
However, Meng Han also quickly accepted this fact. The powerless noble, with even the last shred of hope of becoming a magician, has become a completely useless nobleman. If it weren't for the glory of maintaining the nobility's circle, it is estimated that even that last piece of territory would not be given to him.
Although he has fallen to such a point, at least he is better than in the original world, at least, now Meng Han still has a small piece of territory, and he still has two hundred gold coins rewarded by His Majesty the King. This is enough for him to live this life in peace and quiet, without having to work hard to find a job.
Boom, a small bag was inadvertently thrown into Meng Han's car, and no one even said a word. Meng Han opened it, and there were a few pieces of hard dry food inside, after such a long time, he was already hungry. Seeing these, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, pick it up first and gnaw it. Although he is losing power, no one wants to kill himself by poisoning his food, right?
In those cars in front of you, this must not be the food. Meng Han took a few bites, which was worse than the taste of those "pig food" in his university cafeteria, but Meng Han was really hungry, so he didn't care about the taste, so he quickly ate these small pieces of dry food clean. Before I felt full, I was stunned to find that there was no more dry food in the bag.
"Hey, buddy, is there anything else?" muttered a few times, Meng Han whispered outside in the language of Antonio's mind, who was not very proficient.
"Shut up!" a rude voice sounded directly in his ears, and then the not very sturdy car was kicked fiercely: "Disturb the Earl, don't you want to die?"
The guy who spoke looked dressed as a samurai, but he was also a relatively down-and-out samurai. Meng Han took a closer look and immediately confirmed that these guys were not the personal entourage of Lord Earl at all, but mercenaries.
"Damn, this place is at least a hundred meters away from the luxurious carriage in front, can you startle the Earl with a gentle word?" Meng Han cursed fiercely in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything. He already knew from the memory of his original body that these mercenaries were outlaws many times, and he was now alone and lonely, and it was not worth provoking.
To tell the truth, in his previous life, Meng Han was just a college student in school, basically belonging to the kind of ordinary people who honestly should skip classes, fail classes, play games, read novels and read novels, and barely get into graduation, and suddenly want him to accept a completely different world, even if he has read too many similar novels, he will not be able to devote himself to it immediately.
"Endure the calm for a while, take a step back and open the sky. Meng Han silently recited this sentence in his heart, then touched the hard bag beside him, and began to fantasize about his happy life after arriving in the territory. As long as you get to that place, you will be the adult that those people say, and when the time comes, you won't be able to be a powerful person as much as you want? Well, it's better not to go too far, to be a little more restrained, just a little bit more majestic.
I walked with the convoy for almost a month, nibbling on a pitiful little bit of dry food that was not enough every day, and when it was time to camp at night, I solved my physiological problems, and then curled up in the hay in the car to sleep, not even knowing where I had been.
"Get up!" An even rougher shout woke Meng Han up, and before he could react, his arms had already been grabbed, and then the whole person was lifted up and involuntarily held between the two people, walking towards the convoy in front.
