Chapter 4: Poor Robbery

In the era when human beings did not enter the modern industrial machinery civilization and had to rely on animal power for labor, large livestock was definitely the standard for measuring the wealth of a family. In those days, talking about the number of livestock was like talking about the number of cars in the family today.

Even during the Republic of China, the vast number of landlords represented by Mr. Huang Shiren, once they recruited long-term workers, they would first let the mules, horses and other big animals at home take a rest.

It was not surprising, then, that the Count of Lorraine was furious when he saw that the knight was dying of exhaustion from the exhaustion of his only great animal.

He scolded: "What's the big deal? You bastard, if you exhaust my last Ferrari to death, you'll be bad right away~!"

The knight cracked his mouth and said with a bitter face: "Young master, you still have the heart to care about this mule......"

Lorraine interrupted him unceremoniously and scolded: "Bastard~! Is this an ordinary mule? This is a thousand miles in a day and eight hundred in a night." Imported from Italy, known as the famous brand among famous brands, Ferrari mule~!"

The knight was really anxious, and he couldn't take care of much, and shouted loudly: "Sir, stop playing." Let's go back and take a look, I don't know where a giant dragon came from and robbed our castle~!"

Everyone was taken aback.

Lorraine hurriedly said, "What did you say, dragon? Are you sure?"

The knight was mistaken. He swallowed his saliva, stretched out his right hand and said solemnly: "Sir, although there has been no trace of the dragon on the continent for many years, I can swear. It was indeed a dragon. ”

Lorraine smiled reluctantly and said, "No, no." You are mistaken. I didn't mean that. ”

At this time, everyone in the venue also realized that something was wrong here, and they stopped one after another and gathered around here.

Ferro reminded beside him: "Young master, this matter, for the time being, it's better not to alarm everyone." ”

Lorraine looked at the people in the room, and felt that it made sense, so he nodded his head.

The three of them found the village chief, and then led him to a room next to the venue. Seeing that there was no one else around, Lorraine said, "Now, sue me, what's going on." ”

The knight said, "Well, not long after you left, a dragon came out of nowhere. It rained down from the sky, set fire to the stables, and then began to wreak havoc......"

Lorraine's eyes suddenly appeared in front of the foolish road idiot dragon. He froze, and then said, "Dragon, is it a blue dragon?" Big, chubby, and with a pink bow tied around the tail?"

The knight was stunned for a moment.

He thought for a moment, then said, "It's a blue dragon, that's right." But everyone was panicking at the time, and they didn't notice whether the dragon had a bow tied to its tail. Why, sir, have you ever seen that dragon?"

Lorraine waved his hand and said vaguely: "Yes, I met once on the road at that time." ”

The knight was about to ask again.

Ferro asked beside him, "Did you hurt anyone?"

The knight had a strange look on his face and said, "It didn't hurt. And the destruction of the castle is not too strict. ”

"Huh?"

The knight explained, "Yes, everyone was busy in the fields. There were few people left in the castle. And according to people at the time. That dragon is weird, too. It drove everyone out, and that's when they started setting fire to it and destroying it. ”

Lorraine and Ferro looked at each other and nodded. It seems that yes, it is the fool dragon. It's the only one that would use such a clumsy method.

What a broken dragon, even such a promising profession as a bandit can't be done, it simply disgraces the face of the dragon clan as a strong man, and it will make people despise for 10,000 years. Thinking of this, Lorraine glanced at Fello and said dissatisfiedly: "I said I was going to slaughter it~!"

He turned his head and saw the knight and said, "Baldo, what happened later?"

Baldo hesitated for a moment and said, "Later...... Afterward...... It was about to fly away after breaking through. But he came back suddenly, and said that the robbery guide manual said that he must tie up a young lady, princess and other valuable hostages or something. ”

Ferro's heart suddenly tightened, and he asked urgently, "What happened later?"

Baldo said: "Later, it grabbed Aunt Nancy and flew away. Before leaving, he also said that he wanted us to raise four million gold coins, and then go to Qinglin Mountain, ninety miles west of the castle, to redeem it. ”

Aunt Nancy?Ferro was stunned for a moment, thinking of the big-ass fat cook who chattered all day long, and couldn't figure out what kind of valuable hostage she was like to be equated with a young lady or a princess.

Lorraine, on the other hand, was furious and shouted, "What? I kidnapped my chef with such a low eye, even if it was an idiot dragon, it was really unforgivable." ”

The two of Ferro suddenly looked at Lorraine in amazement as if they had choked on something, and couldn't say a word for a long time.

Lorraine walked two steps back and forth in the room, then turned around and ordered, "Baldo, go and drive out my ox cart from the young master, let's go back." ”

Baldo stomped his foot and said hurriedly: "Sir, the ox cart is too slow. Why don't I put that mule on, and we can go a little faster." ”

Lorraine glared and said angrily, "Bastard." Anyway, the dragon had already run away. Besides, you didn't see that the Ferrari was tired like that, and the young master's family was now left with this strong animal. If you really die of exhaustion, will you take your dog's life?"

Baldo shrank his neck for a moment, and then thought about it, Lorraine had a point. Therefore, he ran out in a gray manner and drove the ox cart.

Ferro looked at Lorraine thoughtfully and said, "Young Master, what should we do?"

Lorraine flicked his sleeves and said, "What else can we do? Can we take out four million gold coins? Besides, even if we are wronged and take out four million gold coins, what if it eats it smoothly, and it comes again in two days? How many times will we toss that idiot dragon?"

Ferro hesitated for a moment and said, "You mean we are going to ask the local garrison for help?"

Lorraine said, "Please." Usually they open a stall, smash a shop, and bully the common people. I'm afraid that as soon as I hear that there is a dragon, those grandchildren will be scared. ”

"The Imperial Government may send magicians and armies ......"

Lorraine gave him a blank look and said, "Ferro, you save it." You also know that those damn tax thieves, in addition to eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, embezzlement and bribery, only have the ability to kick ball. An official document is not thirty or fifty years old, don't expect a reply. When they come, my grandson will be making soy sauce. Don't forget jì, we only have three days. ”

"So what do you mean ......"

Lorraine smiled proudly, then stretched out his hand and pointed forward, and said, "Young Master Ben's meaning, of course, is to personally go up the mountain and slaughter that idiot dragon." ”

Ferro shouted loudly: "Young Master, if something happens to you, the Lorraine family will be cut off......"

Lorraine waved his hand impatiently and said, "Ferro, don't worry, slaughter an idiot dragon by yourself, I'll be fine." ”

The loyal old butler was almost about to cry at this time, "But the young master ......"

Lorraine glanced at him coldly and said, "Shut up, I'm up to my own devices." Hugh said a lot. ”

Ferro was stunned, but he didn't expect Lorraine to play at this time. He looked at Lorraine for a long time, then bowed deeply and said calmly: "As you wish, my master." ”

He straightened up and said, "Please allow me to go back first and see what is going on at home." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Lorraine to answer, he turned around and strode out of the door. A moment later, the sound of mule hooves was heard, and it gradually disappeared into the distance.

Lorraine couldn't help but grin bitterly when she heard this, it seemed that her Ferrari mule was going to die of exhaustion today.
