Along the spiral staircase of the castle, the sand and stone in the gaps of the walls on both sides are somewhat peeled off, and there are some oil paintings hanging on the walls, some are portraits, some are idyllic scenes, moments of the battlefield, etc., and further up, there are some typical weapons hanging on the walls, spears, axes, bows and crossbows.

Walking to the top of the tower, you can see a row of ironwood longbows and quivers filled with steel arrows hanging in the corner of the doorway.

The tower looked like a watchtower, with a spiral staircase spanning a distance of twenty or thirty meters, and the building at the top was circular like a mushroom umbrella, and when you walked in, you found that it was arranged as a huge bedroom, with not only a large and soft bed, but also a heated fireplace on the wall, a dresser, and a separate washroom.

The room has a total of eight windows that look around the castle, six of which are temporarily closed.

Beatrice walked over to the dresser and pushed the wooden window open, and suddenly a fresh cold wind blew in from outside, and the snow on the top of the window eaves fell, smashed on the windowsill, and splashed into the room.

Hathaway walked up, looked at the room layout, and walked to the edge of the bed and sat down.

She touched the bed with her hand and smiled at Surdak and said, "Beatrice and I have lived here for almost two months, and as long as the door below is locked, there is no other way but to jump out of the window and leave, we lie here all day, or sit at the window and look out." ”

Surdak walked to the window and looked down, it was about six stories above the ground, although this height was still a bit dangerous for a swordsman like Hathaway, Surdak pressed his hands on the windowsill, looked at the snow outside, and said:

"Beatrice has been here with you?"

"That's right!" replied.

The two young ladies huddled together at the window, looking out, the sun after the snow was a little harsh.

"Actually, what I want to say is that it should be good to live here for a while." Surdak narrowed his eyes, smelled the faint smell of perfume on the two young ladies, and said with a smile. "I mean, if I had been locked up here at the time, I would never have considered it captivity......"

Beatrice's round eyes looked at Surdak with obsession.

At this time, presumably Surdak carried her to the bed, and she would not refuse.

Hathaway blushed slightly, and said to the two, "Let's go down and take a walk." ”

The three of them first walked around the tower where Hathaway was grounded, and Beatrice smiled and said that if they had known that the young nobleman Marquis Luthor had shown Hathaway to see was Surdak, the two would not have said that they would not be locked up in that tower for two months.

Walking down the tower, it was still a little cold outside the castle, and the maid who followed behind hurriedly brought a fox fur cloak and shawl, even so, when they walked outside the castle, a cold wind blew in their faces, which made Hathaway and Beatrice hold their breath and get used to it for a while before walking down the stairs.

In the courtyard behind the castle there is a fine garden, and next to the garden is a training ground, and a neat row of stables is built along the wall of the training ground.

A heavy snowfall suddenly covered the withering and depressed scenery of winter with a layer of silver makeup.

Not far away, Mrs. Mabel and her three daughters were walking in the snow in the garden, and the two young men gathered around them to offer their respects, and seemed to be very happy talking and laughing all the way.

Hathaway made a decisive turn, and walked along the other side of the garden to the snow-covered pool, where there were several stone towers far apart, the tops of which looked like a tray of water like blooming flowers, and which had been swept by the servants and sprinkled with some seeds of miscellaneous grains, which attracted many birds to eat.

Fearing to disturb the eating birds, the trio stopped fifty yards from the tower.

"What are you usually busy with in Wall Village?" Hathaway asked Surdak curiously.

"Basically, it's about territorial construction and so on, I'm improving the living environment in the village of Wall, where there is a perennial drought, so I've built a reservoir in the upper valley, it's spectacular, basically solving the problem of irrigating all the wheat fields in Wall, and I've also renovated the houses, which are basically thatched huts, and if there is a heavy snowfall like this in winter, I don't know how many houses will have their roofs collapse, so we have been renovating the houses until winter." Sometimes I'll stay at the Brimstone Mines for a while, ready to redevelop my territory. ”

"Can I go and see it?" Hathaway asked expectantly.

Without hesitation, Surdak said, "Of course, welcome!" ”

Hathaway and Beatrice whispered together for a moment, seemingly discussing when it would be better to go to Wall Village.

After walking a little further on, they came to a row of stables by the wall, and the stables in the Marquis de Luther were also very beautifully built, although they were entirely made of wood, but all the planks of the stables were varnished, and at this time covered with a thick layer of snow, and the two grooms squatted at the door of the hay house next to the stable, and filled some beans and wheat bran into the alfalfa hay.

When the grooms saw Hathaway and Beatrice approaching, they quickly stood up and saluted.

"Would you like to see my horse?" Hathaway, like a child trying to show off a new toy, asked Surdak triumphantly.

"Okay!" Surdak said briskly.

The grooms were very eye-catching, and immediately went into the stable and pulled out Hathaway's horse.

A war horse with green scales all over the body, this kind of high-level war horse is very common on the battlefield, generally it is the mount of the knights, and there is a kind of black scale war horse with purer blood, this kind of green scale horse is a cross horse between the black scale horse and the Gubolai horse, which not only inherits the explosive power and excellent physical strength of the black-scaled war horse, but also has the excellent endurance of the Gubolai horse.

The blue-scaled horse was very handsome, and when she saw Hathaway, she immediately leaned over and arched her huge head into her arms.

The so-called green scales are not a layer of cyan scales on the body of the war horse, but a layer of fine hairs with fine scaly veins on the body.

Surdak looked at the tattoos on the green scale horse, and couldn't help but think of the scales growing on his arm, and suddenly felt a sense of oppression, thinking that if he rewarded himself with some scaly patterns on the skin of his arm, it would be really unlucky.

Thinking of that Lord Johannes, Surdak cursed secretly in his heart.

"This is my horse, do you want to ride it around?" Hathaway put her arm around the horse's head and introduced her horse to Surdak, hoping that they would get acquainted with each other.

As soon as Surdak tried to get closer, the blue-scaled warhorse exploded all its hair, let out a long neigh, and stood up at the Surdaks, nearly knocking Hathaway to the ground.

The groom behind hurriedly rushed up, desperately grabbed the reins of the green scaled horse, and subdued it.

Hathaway was also taken aback, she didn't understand what was going on just now, her horse, who has always had a very good temper, was almost shocked when she saw Surdak.

She glanced at Surdak again, and just now she could see clearly that Surdak was standing there without moving, still smiling at herself......

The blue-scaled warhorse was restlessly digging the ground, refusing to approach Surdak anyway.

In fact, Surdak really wanted to tell Hathaway: I also have a similar pet at home, but it is a little older, and he is probably contaminated with some breath, which makes the war horse startled.

Since they couldn't ride horses, Hathaway and Beatrice took Surdak around the Marquis of Luther's palace again, and then asked the butler to arrange a room for Surdak, and Hathaway and Beatrice had the habit of taking a nap, so they let Surdak rest in the room, and left two maids to serve Surdak.

Surdak hadn't slept much last night, but now he suddenly had a warm and comfortable bed in front of him, and after washing his face a little, he took off his leather armor and lay down on the bed for a while.

Maybe he was too tired, or maybe the bed was too comfortable, and no one was disturbing the room, but when Surdak woke up and opened the curtains, he found that it was already dusk outside, looking for the sunset along the edge of the sky, and the halfway sunset gradually sank into a sunset.

Surdak stood at the window in a linen shirt.

When I woke up, I felt refreshed and relaxed......

He stretched, only to feel a pop in the joints all over his body.

"Miss ordered us to add some calming leaves to the incense burner, so you may sleep a little longer, and Miss told you to wake up, and let us take you to hers." A maid whispered behind Surdak.

Surdak turned and nodded at the maid.

Of course he knew that the Tranquility Flower, this magic herb is the main material for the preparation of the Spiritual Power Potion, and now it is basically difficult to buy in the magic market, and the Spiritual Power Potion is even more difficult to find, but he didn't expect that when he was sleeping, Hathaway actually used the leaves of the Tranquility Flower as incense, which was really a low-key luxury.

He walked over to the hanger, intending to put on the salamander leather armor that he could still handle, when he saw a maid come up with a wooden tray with a neatly folded stack of lake-blue dresses.

The maid stood in front of Surdak and whispered, "This is the dress that the master of the high tailor and the needlewoman will make for you while you are asleep, you try it first, the master of Guillini is still waiting outside, and if there is anything that does not fit, you can change it immediately." ”

Surdak didn't expect that he had only slept for a while, and even the dress had been made, and it seemed that he had been completely approved by the Marquis of Luthor.

Putting on the delicate gown of lake blue with dark lines, Surdak's aristocratic temperament suddenly improved a lot, he walked to the mirror, saw the handsome and straight knight in the mirror, and for a moment, suddenly a little unaware of himself......
