Chapter 37: Raven Feathers

In Oak City, in the kitchenette next to the castle's big kitchen, Emma and Tim sit together by the basin to wash vegetables.

Tim carefully examines the leaves to prevent dirt and bugs from getting mixed in.

Under Emma's education, Tim knew that this matter had to be taken seriously.

If the hosts and hostesses eat the stones and mud, they will inevitably be punished, and in serious cases, they will be transferred to someone else to take charge of the kitchen.

After checking that there was no problem, Tim felt that there was nothing to do, so he looked at his mother who was peeling garlic cloves.

"Mom, where are Gurney and Eve? I haven't seen them in a long time. ”

Gurnie is Fryce's daughter, and Eve is a former slave girl who used to be good playmates with Tim.

Emma earnestly educated: "Gurney is getting fatter and fatter, let her go home to work, Eve stole the herbs of Lord Keharan last year, and was sent to Talim Manor to keep bees by the owner, and the owner asked her to work in the bee garden a few days ago. ”

"You have to remember not to steal."

Tim quickly nodded and promised, "Yes, Mom, I'm not going to steal." ”

Emma was a little more relieved and convinced that Tim wasn't the bad boy.

Lawrence is still as merkind as before, even when he encounters children who steal food to eat, he is extraordinarily forgiving.

He didn't beat or scold the child, but he just thought she wasn't fit for the job and asked her to help out on Mount Talim, where she could eat fruit at will, and didn't publicize it, lest the child be looked down upon by the rest of the people.

Emma quickly added: "I think Gurney is very good, gaining some weight means that she is in good health and looks good, um also has a good job now, I plan to take Um to Fryce's house when autumn comes, so that um and Gurney can get to know each other." ”

Tim offered his opinion, "I think Eve is much prettier than Gnanie. ”

Emma didn't respect the child's opinion and said arrogantly, "Gurney is better!" ”

Tim didn't dare to have an objection to his mother, so he honestly lowered his head and continued to wash the vegetables.

After returning from Durela, Tim had a regular job in the kitchen, coming back from school every day to help out in the kitchen, and was assigned to the kitchen directly after graduation.

It's a good job that others can't envy, and Lolita really wants to work here, but unfortunately everyone doesn't agree.

Sophie is learning swordsmanship and language, and she is too much of a poor learner, and Heidi is often spoken about by Heidi.

Fortunately, there are many people here who can teach her, and there are also special language teachers in the Holy Virgin Academy, who are more aware of the learning ability of ordinary people.

Sophie and Hela live together, while Sister Clara and Heidi continue their studies at the academy and only do some work at home on weekends.

The war outside still has some impact on Flying Fish Harbor and Ferry Harbor, but only less on the town of Bhumixiu and Oak City, and many people here don't care about the affairs of Enger Harbor.

Even if En'er Harbor fails, it will not be a nerve-wracking blow for the current Star Country, and it will be easy to form a more powerful expeditionary force again.

Coupled with the good news that came before, both Lawrence and the rest of the people didn't pay much attention to the things outside.

The once peaceful city of Oak is in trouble today.

Sophia rode a domme sheep and quickly found Lawrence, who was farming.

"The hosts! Oh no! ”

Lawrence felt a jerk and quickly stood up and looked in Sophia's direction.

It took Sophia more than thirty seconds to run to Lawrence on the sheep, sat on the back of the sheep and said quickly, "Master! Our crow was eaten by an eagle! ”

Lawrence:......

It may sound like a trivial matter, but considering that he has a crow feather as his surname, and the crow's unique position in this area, it can indeed be considered a big deal.

"Are there any eagles in this place?" Lawrence thought about it and seemed to have it.

The Agama Mountains are so large that they have only explored the side foot, and they haven't actually penetrated much into it for years.

It is normal to have eagles in high mountains, and snow-capped mountains are often accompanied by large grasslands.

Crows can't beat eagles, and it's normal for them to be eaten by eagles.

"What do those eagles think, the chickens that are more delicious and easier to eat are not to eat, but to eat our crows."

Lawrence felt helpless, there are a lot of chickens in the chicken farm now, and it doesn't matter if they are eaten by the eagles.

What's more, with the spread of human areas, the nearby eagle nests will definitely be destroyed, making the number of eagles less and less, so there is no fear that these eagles will eat their own chickens.

The only thing that is the crow is more troublesome, and at the moment it is one of the cards of religious faith.

"Sophia, where is the crow that was eaten? Heidi's crow? ”

Lawrence can ignore the affairs of En'er Harbor and let them play on their own, but the affairs of the crows cannot be ignored.

Sophia quickly said, "It's the crow from the manor!" ”

Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "That's fine, our crows here in Oak City...... It's the sacred crow, the big crow in the manor, the little crow in the forest, and the rest there's the big-mouthed crow, the small-billed crow and so on. ”

"Crows are not the same as crows, we need to protect the crows in Oak City, and the crows in the manor don't have to worry too much."

Sophia hurriedly said, "But the crows and chickens in the manor are together, and if we don't care, the eagles will fly in and eat our chickens too!" ”

Lawrence nodded, "It's not that it doesn't matter, it's just that some crows don't want to live here in Oak City, it's their own choice, and those eagles are trials." ”

Sophia nodded as if she didn't understand, "That's it..."

Lawrence quickly thought about how to explain to the rest of the people that the crows had been eaten.

With the intervention of humans, some crows have become familiar with chickens, and often grab fodder with chickens to eat, changing from flying crows to black crows walking on the ground.

If crows eat chicken feed with the flock of chickens since childhood, without having to look for bugs to eat, and without worrying about being eaten by wild cats and dogs, then after a long time, they will forget some skills.

Oak City doesn't need too many crows, and the Crowfeather Prophet doesn't necessarily have to be bound to a crow.

The eagle matter needs to be solved, and you can't just eat chickens just because it's an eagle, Lawrence is not used to these outsiders, and he doesn't have an animal worship mentality.

"Send hunters to shoot those eagles and drive them out of our territory!"

"Yes! Master! Sophia shouted happily, "I'm going to shoot those big birds down with my bow and arrows!" Stuff them into the rooster's belly and eat barbecue bird meat! ”

Sophia learned archery, and so did Lawrence.

But it's not very powerful.

Lawrence was in a good mood to see Sophia so happy.

"Eagle meat shouldn't be tasty." Lawrence hadn't eaten it, but it didn't taste good just by listening to it, and no one ever boasted of eagle meat.

Sophia was curious: "Is the crow meat delicious?" Why do eagles eat crows? ”

Lawrence quickly thought about the recent situation, "Maybe we have more rabbits here, so those eagles are active here, and we just happened to see a large number of crows roaming around the ground." ”

"We do have too many crows here, so there's no need to keep so many crows."

Sophia's eyes suddenly lit up, "Then let's eat the extra crow eggs!" ”

Lawrence had never thought about this, and when he heard Sophia say this, he quickly refused: "Those crows are much smarter than chickens." ”

"Forget it, you don't need to worry about those crows, it's like after there are no wild boars and bears, there will be us to replace those superior predators to hunt rabbits and snakes, and if the crow colony becomes larger, they will separate up by themselves."

There are many things that don't need to be paid special attention to, and they don't need to be forced to be solved.

But the relationship between the crow and the eagle is not only as simple as the ecological niche, but more importantly, the image represented by the crow.

Lawrence didn't allow the eagle to hunt crows, at least not in front of others.

In short, it's just a little bit of resistance and pretentiousness.

"That's right." Lawrence quickly came up with a good solution to the problem.

This time it's mainly a matter of the image of the crow, so just divide it out.

"My crow feather shawl should also be changed, and I will choose a few suitable big crows to prepare suitable beautiful feathers."

Lawrence's title is Raven Feather, not Raven.

It has been a tradition since ancient times to use the crow's feathers as one's own decoration, so if the concept is reinforced, it is easy to distinguish between a crow and a prophet.

At the same time, while maintaining a certain degree of protection for crows, you will not care too much about those crows.

Raven Feather is just a title and should not be a description and adjective.
