Chapter 223: Flame Ice Pole
Although he thought it was ridiculous that everyone was forced to marry, on the way back to Black Iron Town, Renault still thought very seriously about the question of his bloodline. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Only the people of the Franklin family can awaken the 21st demon spirit, Blaze, which is as incredible to him as the family has passed down from generation to generation.
And when he rummaged through the large number of books in the brain library, he was surprised to find that they were not alone.
There is another demon spirit, the No. 28 demon spirit, Ice Pole, which seems to have only appeared in one family.
That's the Golden Lion Royalty.
An extremely blazing flame and an extremely cold ice pole, two diametrically opposed attributes, the two families seem to have been entangled for thousands of years.
Judging from the records of a few words on the genealogy, the royal family has been faintly suppressing the Franklin family, so they settled on the border. But at the same time, the royal family didn't want their family to become extinct, so they secretly protected them to always have a trace of bloodline.
The royal family has a love-hate feeling for the Franklin family.
It's just that judging from the current attitude of the royal family towards Renault, the situation may have improved slightly, at least on the surface, the royal family represented by Mia has taken a bystander rather than suppressed Renault's sudden rise.
This can be seen in the fact that His Majesty readily agreed to the three conditions put forward by Renault, as well as Mia's generosity.
Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.
His Majesty raised his hand in the air and landed these chess pieces, although Renault could not see clearly now, but he could vaguely feel the ulterior motives hidden behind them.
This can only be blamed on his cheap father, who didn't want to take on the family responsibilities, so he just picked on his son and quit, and not a word of the family's affairs was handed down.
But it's no wonder that anyone who sees Renault before would never have thought that he would suddenly become smart and develop into the second largest force in the West in less than a year.
Thinking of this, Renaud suddenly felt that he didn't owe much favor to Mia.
If the royal family really changed their attitude in the past, the 3 million gold coins she gave would not be an exaggeration as compensation to the Franklin family. If the royal family has hidden evil intentions, then I'm sorry, don't let the enemy's money be in vain.
......
The railway between Black Iron Town and Sequoia Town can be connected in ten days at most, and it only takes more than two hours to reach the 200-kilometer journey.
And the amount of goods transported at one time will reach a rather staggering amount.
Just thinking that every rail contained blue stone powder, he couldn't help but feel distressed.
As they passed by the Black Mist Ridge, he and Yuki went down to the deep cave again and fetched a small cart of blue stones, which they would use to deal with the awakened people of the Black Sheep family and the blue-clothed priest of the temple.
Grenades infused with Blue Jeopardite powder will be worth more than 300 gold each. No wonder people always say that fighting a war is a fight for money, and ordinary people really can't afford to fight.
These grenades will not be wasted and will be used where it matters most.
As he approached Blackiron Town, Renault suddenly remembered Hailei's farm.
She is now busy planting trees on the banks of the Naxi River, and it is estimated that no one takes care of the farm, and some of the plants in it are dying.
So he took a detour halfway, ready to see if there was anything he could use and bring back by the way.
As he expected, the farm, which lacked people to water and manage, had been devastated by the mountain rats of small birds. Most plants have withered and yellowed, producing skinny fruits and seeds.
Renault walked around the field and had all the ripe seeds gathered.
Finally, in the place where I found the creeper last time, I unexpectedly found a few good plants - sweet potatoes!
The last time I came, I didn't look carefully, a few sweet potatoes were hidden under the vines of the creeper, and now although the leaves are gone, the special vine Renault will definitely not admit it.
He used his dagger to dig through the soft sand and dig out a pile of skinny underground fruits.
"What is this?" Mia asked curiously, seeing that he had personally plowed the ground, which must have been a very precious thing.
"It's called a sweet potato, and it's delicious. ”
Seeing that Yuxi was also full of anticipation, Renault simply asked people to find enough firewood, and after burning them into red charcoal with flames, he chose a few large ones and buried them in them.
Soon the peculiar sweet smell of roasted sweet potatoes came from the fire, attracting Yushi to hold his cheeks and look intently at the red charcoal fire.
After baking, the black shell is peeled off from the surface, and Renault uses a dagger to cut it into small pieces for everyone to taste.
Mia had never eaten such coarse food before, and she refused to take a bite to her heart.
But the peculiar sweet taste that she had never tried before made her mouth water. And everyone ate very deliciously, so she finally mustered up the courage to take a bite gently.
Hot and sweet and glutinous, this is ten times better than baked potatoes!
"Lord Renault's table will always surprise us!"
Hawkeye Hank praised unpretentiously, and even Uncle Julian, who was usually not very quiet, gave a thumbs up with great appreciation.
"Yet. Yuki licked her fingers a little dissatisfied.
"Not now, the rest will be used for seeds. ”
Yushi pouted imperceptibly, and Renault leaned into her ear and whispered a few words before blushing slightly and disappearing in an instant.
"What did you say to her?" Since Wolf Castle, Mia has become more and more interested in Yusie, and has become more and more concerned about her relationship with Renault.
"I said, I like to fart when I eat too many sweet potatoes. ”
Yes?
Mia stared at him in disbelief, thinking to herself, Mr. Renault, such a shameful thing, you know to your subordinates and whisper, say it to me in front of so many people?
Yuki is a little girl, I'm a little girl too, and I'm a princess!
glared at him angrily, this guy is simply getting more and more excessive, and it is a loss for Her Royal Highness Princess Ben to sponsor you with so many gold coins.
"What's wrong with her?"
Seeing Mia leave angrily, Renault was puzzled.
"Ahem, Lord Renault, Princess Mia may be angry. What you just said made her feel humiliated, after all, she was a respected princess. ”
Renault thought it was amused, shook his head and left her alone, and was about to pack up his things and go home, when one of the guards suddenly groaned and stomped on a verdant weed.
"What's going on?"
The guards immediately returned: "Lord Renault, this grass is poisonous, I wanted to pick a leaf just now, but now my hand hurts and its. ”
Renault stepped forward to see that it was actually a nettle.
Nettle, also known as nettle, is stung by the thorns on its stems and leaves, and the skin will immediately become red and swollen, and the itch will be unbearable. Renaud remembers being pranked as a child and letting nettle leaves go in his chair, and he still remembers the maddening sourness.
That's a good thing.
So he immediately had a few plants dug up and give them to Hailei.
Reynolds decided he should make a trip to the south and might find some strange plants, such as the legendary man-eating tree Dian Cypress, or the large pitcher plant.
Planting a large area around the territory is definitely a natural barrier. (To be continued.) )
