"Hey......"

Seeing this again,

Professor Voss sighed anyway.

In the book "Ordinary and Great", after this paragraph, the ending is ushered in.

It was many years later, when an officer who was nearly middle-aged, dressed in modest clothes, arrived in the village.

The two soldiers who followed him were left in front of a pile of ruins.

It was a ruin full of weeds, and occasionally in the gaps of the ruins, you could see burned and carbonized wood.

……

"You're waiting for me here."

The middle-aged officer looked at the ruins and was silent for a long time.

Then he turned around and looked in the other direction.

Around, there were originally many residents of the village, looking at this officer curiously,

Although he was persuaded to leave, he still whispered in the distance, and looked at the officer from time to time.

The officer ignored the gaze of the inhabitants in the distance, and walked to the village cemetery in silence on the familiar path.

The cemetery in the village is still in its original location,

It's just that the forest where the cemetery used to be, no longer belongs to the nobility and the church in the city.

In this cemetery, and next to the cemetery, the officers saw the graves of "Mediaok", "Miria", and "Hoth".

He paused, ripped off the hat above his head, and squatted down, his eyes red.

This officer, who is nearly middle-aged, is the former little Glitter.

“…… Father, I'm back. But you may already have the answer to your question. ”

Squatting in front of the tombstone of his father Hoss, Gerritt was silent for a while with red eyes,

Then he sat down in front of the tombstone, and I don't know how long and how long the wind blew, taking away some of the dust on Gerritt's face and the sadness that had been stored for a long time.

It's just like when I left home for school early in the morning and came home in the evening to go with Hoss, talking a few words, and it seems that I never left for long.

"Father, do you remember General Otoliv? A bard once told you that General Autoliv overthrew the previous king and became king himself. ”

"More precisely, the previous king."

"Soon after you left, because it was not good for the war in the neighboring countries, a large number of soldiers were conscripted into battle, and the peasants were requisitioned for what little food they had left, which aroused the resentment of the people. They again overthrew General Otoliv's comrades. ”

Of course, this is nothing more than an excuse for them, and Autoliv is nothing more than a scapegoat for them. They never cared about any public grievances, and this battlefield was also forced and brought about by them. ”

"The birth of the textile machine made the production of wool, the raw material for textiles, very valuable, and they, like Mr. Raleigh, took a lot of the fields of other farmers and used them to raise lambs."

"Our land is limited, and there are fewer fields to grow food, which makes the price of food skyrocket. We are not getting less, but we are getting less food. ”

"This forced Autoliv to wage war against his neighbors, as you can see, to send people who don't have food to die on the battlefield, and at the same time to grab more land to cultivate or continue to raise sheep."

Gerritt told his father, Hoss's tombstone, what he had seen,

And these are also the answers to some of the original questions,

"And after the outbreak of the war, the departure of some men in the family also made people like Mr. Raleigh take more land at a lower price."

"Did you know? In fact, at that time, Autoliv only announced that he would increase the amount of grain to 50% after the next season's grain harvest in the fields, but did not make up the 20% of the previous year's grain. ”

"The twenty percent of the grain may never have been to the battlefield, but it went to the grain stores in the towns and towns, and at a greater price went to other people who were short of food."

"And Mr. Raleigh, too, took this opportunity to take those people's fields."

"It's like I used to wonder why the church didn't tell the farmers in the village when it had clear laws."

"Because if you tell the farmers in the village, they need to follow the law, and if they don't, they can follow their anger or their happiness."

"It's like Mediaoc, who was declared dead by an angry knight."

Glitter turned his head and looked at Mediaoc's tombstone not far away.

This was one of the doubts surrounding Medioc's death.

After a pause, Glitter turned his head again,

"Autoliv had only been king for a few years, so short that many remote places did not know that he had ever ruled the country."

"But there's one thing we might be thankful for. That was the establishment of schools in towns. ”

"Do you remember that you spent your life savings and sold half of our land in exchange for admission and study fees?"

"In fact, in order to promote education and acquire some talent, Autoliv's new school will not charge students at all."

"The dozen or so silver coins we paid never reached the king."

"In fact, more than half of the students in the whole school did not pay fees to the school, but only collected money from students like me and students like Aimon."

"But even so, we should be grateful to them, although it was only a few years, but I did learn some things that I couldn't have learned before.

And throughout the kingdom, there are many people like me. ”

Gerrit looked up and recalled,

"Father, do you remember the advice I gave you when I first started studying?"

"At that time, I naively thought that the right thing could be implemented. Just as we can give up the mortgaged fields and end the repayment of those loans. ”

"At the time, I didn't understand that you were so sure that you were negating what I thought was right."

"But, when I walked into Mr. Raleigh's house that time, when the servants of Mr. Raleigh's house stood around with their weapons, when I saw the knights of Mr. Raleigh's house wearing heavy armor."

"I see. Rules can only be enforced by force, and the comparison of force can determine whether the right behavior can be upheld! ”

As he spoke, Gretel's gaze became firm.

“…… We're all together. We see that after they killed Autoliv and installed a new king. ”

"But nothing has changed. The kingdom is still at war with its neighbors. And they, even at the same time, sell weapons to neighboring countries. ”

"The kingdom still recruits farmers to become warriors, and the harvested grain is still collected in various names."

"So, we got into action."

Gerrit stood up, wearing a military uniform, he was already nearly middle-aged,

There are many scars on the exposed skin of the body, even the cheeks and forehead have deep scars.

"Father, maybe you've seen it."

"That forest no longer belongs to the nobility and the church of the town."

Gerrit said firmly.

"We may not have won completely, but at least, this forest no longer belongs to the nobility and church of the town."

Glitter looked up and looked back at the forest past the cemetery.

And at this time,

Here in the cemetery, an elderly figure arrived.

It's Yin Na.

Gerrit, who heard the voice, turned his head,

What I saw was an old woman with withered weeds, messy hair and dirty bodies.

She was hunched over her waist, her face was full of wrinkles, and she was very old.

She carried a bamboo basket and also came to visit the deceased in the cemetery.

She looked up and saw Gerrit.

Gerrit also saw her face.

"Gretel?"

"Come Aunt Yinna."
