The Wizard’s Fairy Tale

Chapter 33: Digging

   Two days later, Old John returned to the small village of Nisai with a few large carriages and cargo from the caravan.

   Nisai Village is full of enthusiasm.

   There are villagers coming and going everywhere. They are sweating, carrying a basket of red soil on their shoulders, dumping them around the end of the village, and piled them into a low mound!

   In this situation, not only was the guy in the caravan of Seuss curious, but Old John was also puzzled.

   He just grabbed a villager in the village, "What are you moving?"

"Master John, you are back!" The villager who was shouted still had dissatisfaction on his face, but when he saw that it was Old John, his face immediately changed to a humble and flattering color, and said, "We are moving soil. !"

   "I know!" Old John frowned and said with a look of "Am I a fool?" "I'm asking where the soil comes from? Why do I need to move the soil? Did Lord Baron order it?"

   "Yes, Lord John, it was ordered by Lord Baron. As expected, I can't hide anything from Smart John!" The villager gave a little flattery.

   Old John showed a useful look on his face, but immediately, Old John asked anxiously, "You haven't said where the dirt comes from?"

   "Master John, it's in a depression in Cordillera Mountain, not far from the Kadim River." The villager replied honestly.

   Kadim River is where the villagers of Nisai village take water. At the foot of Cordillera Mountain, it takes two and a half candles to burn. This old John knew it.

   "Bob was really lucky to let him find this place and earned a bounty as high as Lord Baron." After a pause, the villager said with envy and hatred.

Old John knew from the color of the soil and the actions of the villagers that this soil was what William was looking for. It was not surprising that the lucky guy could get William's bounty. He said casually, "Good luck! I remember this. Things, the bounty offered by Lord Baron is a silver franc."

   A silver franc is one-ninth of the monthly salary of Old John, which is not a small amount.

   "Two silver francs! Lord John!" The villager's jealousy was almost overflowing.

   "Two silver francs?" Old John looked astonished. Even he didn't notice what he said, and he didn't consciously bring a trace of jealousy.

   Two silver francs are almost close to a quarter of Old John's compensation, and this amount is not low.

   "Yes, Lord John, Lord Baron raised the bounty, so..." the villagers explained to Old John.

   "How much has it improved?" When Old John heard about money now, his heart felt tight.

"If you can find it within three days, you will double it! If you can find it within three days, it will increase by half! But if you can find it within seven days, it will only be half the original amount! So now the villagers are desperately looking for what Lord Baron wants A few other things! Even if I go to the Cordillera mountain valleys to dig dirt for money, I will look around and look around, maybe I will find it with luck!"

   What other villagers do is also what this villager thinks!

  Everyone wants to be the darling of this fate!

"These lazy guys, all day long, think about getting something for nothing, and don't want to..." Old John felt distressed for the large bounty given by William. He cursed and said, suddenly he was taken aback and his eyes opened wide. Yes, looking at this villager, "You mean digging dirt for money?"

   "Yes, Lord John!" The villagers looked at Old John strangely, not knowing how he made this expression.

  Isn’t the new baron always like this?

   Work hard and get money!

   is not as cruel as other lords!

Hey! It would be great if there were no Lizardmen disaster! Under the rule of Lord Dicas, we will have a good life, right?

   The villagers thought about it.

   But the old John was furious and murmured, "It is true again! It is true again! My dear Baron, if you continue like this, no matter how big the Golden Mountain is, you will be squandered!"

However, William is still not someone who Old John can reprimand. The gap between the two can only make Old John act as persuasive. This is based on the good relationship between him and William, and William’s character is good. in the case of.

Therefore, Old John cast his anger on the villagers in front of him. He stared at the villagers fiercely, as if he was a murderer in front of him, and asked angrily, "How much will the baron give you? Ten baskets of a Pul coin? "

   "Two baskets and one Poole coin, Lord John." The villagers were frightened by the appearance of Old John and replied cowardly.

"What? Two baskets and one Poole coin? You are committing a crime. You are robbing Lord Baron’s vault! No, I’m looking for Lord Baron! Where is Lord Baron? Is it still in the house?” Old John couldn’t control it. My emotions screamed.

   And the villagers were already in the voice of Old John, unconsciously shrinking their bodies shorter and shorter, afraid to look directly at Old John.

   Hearing Old John’s question, the villager whispered back, "The Baron is not in the earthen house. He took the guards into the forest!"

   "Forest? Lord Baron goes into the forest? Isn't he training the guards?" Old John asked again.

"A few days ago, members of the guards were watching the night and a wolf attack occurred! So Lord Baron took the guards into the edge of the forest to hunt and clean up the more dangerous beasts!" This was what William announced on the guards. He didn't intend to conceal it, nor did he conceal it, so it didn't take long for everyone in the village to know!

"But Lord Baron is so powerful, even the old hunters of the villagers can't match it! Every time you go into the forest, you can bring a lot of prey, and the members of the guards can eat meat every day!" Brings envy. The only thing he hates is why his son was not selected into the guard!

   "Wolf attack? Guards? Has anyone been injured?" Old John's heart was raised all at once, and his focus was on the front.

  Because his son John Jr is in the guard!

"Injured? No! Lord Baron found it early. Those ghost wolves who came to attack were killed by Lord Baron, and the rest escaped into the forest. They never harassed the village again!" The villager shook his head, thinking about it, he I was also afraid for a while. If the villagers didn't have Lord Baron, how many people would the whole village need to fill the appetite of this group of ghost wolves.

   At this moment, he missed the strong walls of Patras. In Patras, he never had to worry about attacks by beasts like ghosts and wolves.

   In the next second, the villager became discouraged again. The city of Patras is safe, but it’s not easy to live in vain!

   If only the master of Patras could be as kind as Baron Dicas!

   However, the villagers shook their heads quickly. Nobles like Viscount Grinn are normal, but nobles like Baron Dicas are alternative!

Hey! The villagers are in deep pain!

   "It's all right! It's all right!" Old John loosened a big breath, then took a long breath and looked at the villagers fiercely, "Go, take me to the Lord Baron!"

"But, Lord John, I have to go to Cordillera Mountain to move the soil, two baskets and one Poole coin! Please, Lord John, my house can’t move much soil in a day. You can find someone else, and I can recommend it to you. , Like Bob is very good..." The villager raised his empty basket, which had become a little loosely structured, and said to Old John.

It's okay if he doesn't say anything. When he said that Old John was even more angry, he snorted, and then said in a stiff tone, "No, it's you! Take me to Lord Baron, I have important things to find Lord Baron! I missed a major event. , I let you not get a Poole coin!"

  The villagers had to cry ~www.wuxiahere.com~ and walked towards the forest with Old John.

   He remembers that the guards entered the forest from this direction in the morning!

   In the gloomy forest, the lush tree canopies grow top-to-top, with branches running across the sky, covering the sky tightly. Only a small amount of sunlight shines through the thick leaves, adding a bit of light to the forest.

  William was standing next to a brown bark tree in leather armor, closed his eyes in a contemplative manner, holding a simple hunting bow in his hand and a crossed sword at his waist.

The    hunting bow was bought by William from the hunter in the village. The quality is average, but better than none!

   Around him, there are ten guards scattered around, holding wooden shields in their hands, looking around, occasionally looking at William, with admiration and longing in their eyes.

   What William has done during this time has to be admired by them!

   Whether it is the first to kill the wolf late at night, or the hunting these days.

   Whether it is a man or a woman, they worship the strong in their bones.

   And William’s performance fits their image as a strong man!

  Especially Jacques Potter's eyes can no longer be described by worship, and what is overflowing with them is the faithful loyalty to William.

   Jacques has always thought he was a simple person, whoever can make him eat, he will do things for him!

  Whoever saved his life, then he would sell his life to him!

  William fed him enough food and saved his life, then in Jacques's heart, his life is not his own, it belongs to William!

   Jacques Porter became William's first diehard!
