Chapter 2: Crossing the Mantra
Outside the town, Hubert broke away from the soldiers who followed him, and rode alone on horseback looking at the calm river in a daze, when he heard a sound of light footsteps behind him, and then pulled back from his chaotic thoughts.
"Elif, is there really no other way?" Hubert didn't turn around, his voice soft as if he was talking to himself.
The man who came was none other than Hubert's internal affairs officer, Elive, a middle-aged man with a thin build.
"My lord, this is an additional opportunity that your lord has given us for the sake of your life and death for the sake of your realm. Iref sighed softly.
"If the young master can't pass the selection at that time...... You know, we can't bet on the mercy of that swordsman. Iliif carefully observed Hubert's reaction and continued: "If the young master cannot inherit your knighthood, I think the best outcome is that the new knight will loot all our belongings and drive us out of this territory. ”
"Of course, you know the worst possible outcome, and that is that when your title is stripped away, they won't let anyone in this manor leave alive. After a pause, Iref seemed to have made up a lot of determination, and knelt down with a tom at Hubert, "My lord, the little one is not afraid of death, but the little one also has a wife and children, so I beg my lord, you must persuade the young master again!"
The breeze blew across Hubert's face, and his resolute face seemed to be much older all of a sudden, and he raised his only hand and waved it lightly behind his back, and his throat was like a stalk: "Stand down, I'll stay alone for a while." ”
Iliver didn't say much, bowed to Hubert, and retreated gently, but the moment he turned around, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
Besides, after Li Yunyang was carried back to the manor, he wandered around the manor, kicked a stone on the side of the road and flew away, finally relieved a little, turned back to Dylan behind him and said: "I really can't figure it out, isn't it just a knighthood, if it's gone, it's gone, wouldn't it be good if we had money, we can't joke with our own lives, right?" Besides, what's so good about being a broken lord, I have been crippled like that, and I still hope that my own son will continue to be cheap, could it be that I was born by my stepmother?"
Dylan didn't mean to answer, just looked at Li Yunyang with a smile, Li Yunyang looked at the smile as always, and he was angry again.
"Forget it, it's better to ask your toes than to ask yourself!" he shook his hand and continued aimlessly along the trail.
Walk through the garden, go around the path outside the hall to the back, there is a low courtyard, which is the old butler Robin's accounting room, since Li Yunyang came to this world, in addition to Dylan, who follows him every day, the most familiar is this old butler who makes him feel more like his father.
As Li Yunyang expected, Robin was still sitting at the broken table at the door, looking through the various accounts intently, and he didn't even feel that Li Yunyang and Dylan had already walked to the door.
I heard from the servants that Robin followed Hubert when he was not yet a lord, the reason seems to be that Hubert saved his life, and in order to assist Hubert wholeheartedly, Robin is even in his forties, and has never married a wife.
For such a die-hard loyalist, Li Yunyang admires Robin from the bottom of his heart, after all, for him, such a plot can only be seen on TV. But then again, what actually made him more suspicious was the charisma of this somewhat dull-looking Daddy Hubert, and he really didn't understand why such an old stubborn man would have such a loyal servant as Robin.
"Uncle Robin, you're still busy. The sudden sound in his ears really startled Robin, and when he looked up and saw Li Yunyang's face smiling at him, he came back to his senses.
"Scared me, it turned out to be Master Allen. Pushing the pair of glasses that made him look more like Mr. Bookkeeper, Li Yunyang could clearly feel the doting in Robin's eyes. "Is there something wrong, Master Allen?"
"Stuffy panic, come and sit here. Moved a stool and sat opposite Robin, Li Yunyang said casually.
"Hehe, is it being disciplined by the old man?" Robin smiled and shook his head, got up and poured a glass of warm water for Li Yunyang, and handed it over.
"Well, who says it's not, it's still your old man who knows me. After taking a sip of water, Li Yunyang continued: "Uncle Robin, how can you say that there is such a father in this world, and you have to force your own son to die?
"Alas, my young master Allen, it was you who misunderstood the lord, it's not that he has to ask you to fight for the opportunity of this lord, but ......" Speaking of this, Robin sighed softly, seemed to have made a lot of determination, and continued: "But if you can't win this title, then everyone in the entire Johnson Manor will face a threat of death!"
Looking at the innocent Young Master Allen, Robin really couldn't bear to tell him the truth, but he didn't know that for Li Yunyang, this was not naïve, but just right for an idiot...... Looking at Young Master Allen, who was staring at him with wide eyes, Robin coughed dryly and continued:
"This is the world of the jungle, if it were you, Young Master Allen, when you took the territory that others had worked hard for decades as your own, would you expect that the other party would not hate you? Would you expect our Lord Baron to have compassion for us? Without the protection of Lord Baron, would you still expect others not to blush at the property of a lord lord? And those who have been punished or expelled by the lord ......" Robin looked a little excited, and didn't want to say any more, looking at Allen, whose mouth was wide open enough to stuff an egg, he exhaled heavily.
"You...... You mean to say that if we lose our territory, if we lose our protection, we are dead, right...... Does that mean that?" swallowed hard, Li Yunyang didn't believe it and wanted to confirm it again, but it was Robin who answered him with a decadent look like that bastard daddy.
"Fuck it! Fuck it! What is this Nima!" Li Yunyang, a young man who was forced to do so, was really undecided at this time, and jumped up from the stool in one fell swoop. "No matter how I say it, my father ended up like this for the people of the territory, this is unloading the mill and killing the donkey...... They still have no humanity! There is no heavenly reason!"
"They only value the taxes paid every year and the security of the territory, although Lord Hubert has become like this for the sake of the territory and the people in the territory, but in the same way, he has no use value......" Now Li Yunyang can finally understand why the bastard dad can have such a look at that time, because at this moment, Robin also has the same expression.
Returned to his small courtyard with an unusually heavy heart, Li Yunyang didn't say a word along the way, and Dylan, who had been following behind, still had a smiling expression, Li Yunyang even suspected that even if he was going to slaughter him at this moment, the expression of this animal would not change much.
Ignoring Dylan, Li Yunyang ran to the bedroom, slammed the door, and then sat on the ground, what should I do...... Who knows! Nima, I'm new here, in such a cold-weapon-like era, and in a world where it is extremely difficult to even grow some food, Li Yunyang can guess with his knees what the so-called selection will be like.
If it's just fighting monsters, you can try it in the next dungeon. Even if it is such a terrible thing as an exam, for the sake of dozens of lives in the manor, if I, Li Yunyang, blink my eyes and frown, I will not be a typical dick man in the twenty-first century!
But...... The conscience of heaven and earth, my youth has just begun, and there are still so many things I haven't done, so let's just say that a few love films of Sakurai Lea and Amamiya Kotone that I just downloaded that night are ready, and I haven't had time to watch them!
No, I'd be happy to try it if I were given a gun, but Li Yunyang can only shoot a handjob, the kind of shooting......
Not to mention the dozens of lives, just your own lives, then there must be more than one bad luck......
Run, I don't think those people will chase me with their lives, right? But the demonic beasts outside the tribe, although I haven't seen them, those guys must be much more powerful than tigers and lions or something...... Even if he didn't die under the claws of the beast demon, the bandits outside would be enough for him to drink a pot. If you don't have any money, you will be hacked to death, and if you have money, you will be looted......
After thinking about it for a long time, after weighing the pros and cons, Li Yunyang bit his teeth and stomped his feet...... Let's sit back and wait for death! At least a few more days to live......
When I got up from the ground, my forehead was already beaded with sweat, and I didn't know if it was hot or ......
didn't even take off his shoes, Li Yunyang directly climbed into bed, his brain hurt so badly that he fell down hard.
"Ahh
This is a royal blue ring, the whole ring seems to be carved from a piece of jade, and there is a trace of tiny black line in the middle, some are long and some are short, crooked, but inadvertently, Li Yunyang strangely found that the lines in this ring seem to be alive. It was as if soft strands of hair were slowly floating in the turquoise water.
And if you look at those black lines carefully, you will find that in such an intricate space, the slowly floating lines seem to have their own predetermined trajectories running, wrong but not chaotic, mixed and orderly!
Looking at it, a thought flashed coldly in Li Yunyang's mind, and he sat up suddenly, his originally dull eyes were instantly filled with excitement, staring at the ring, his pupils slowly dilated.
I can be considered to have crossed over, so since it is a crossing, there must be a necessary condition that it must have been affected by some substance, and the position I crossed over is the bed, and it still occupies the bed of this body, and this strange ring was found on the bed......
Crazy put the ring on his ring finger, hey, he also knew how to say silently - "I want to go back, I want to go back, I want to go back to Earth, I want to go back to Earth!!......!"
I don't know if this kind of two-way approach really has some kind of resonance with the ring, Li Yunyang suddenly felt that the space around him began to rotate wildly, turning faster and faster, just like being in the center of a tornado, and he didn't know whether it was turning by himself, or the world was turning, and the scenery around him was changing rapidly, and he didn't even have time to see the outline of the scenery clearly, and he had already turned over several scenes.
"It's done!Hahahahahaha, I'm going back, I can go back, goodbye guys!hahahaha......" Li Yunyang closed his eyes and laughed wildly, enjoying the feeling of the world spinning.
