Chapter 22 Rose’s move
In the end, Russell didn’t let Butler Morris lock up the wine cellar in the manor’s courtyard because he didn’t lack the money for the red wine.
Moreover, the house that Charles and Eric were looking for in the small market has begun to be repaired and will soon be moved from the manor.
A jubilant celebration banquet ended at noon. Russell immediately used his fighting spirit to refine alcohol and was completely sober before setting off in the afternoon.
As a lord, he still travels with four knights, plus a male servant.
“Chirp, chirp…”
Before reaching the town, I heard a chirping sound coming from above my head. It was Lord Ross’ dragon roar. It was not as domineering as a dragon, but a bit funny.
Sir Ross, who seemed to have noticed Russell and his entourage, who was strolling in the sky, suddenly swooped down.
“My lord, it’s Sir Ross!” Tom shouted.
“It’s okay, Mr. Ross just came to say hello.” Russell stopped the black horse under his crotch and raised his head to look at the sky.
The clay dragon Rose folded his wings and struck like a meteor, as if heading straight for Russell.
But Russell remained unmoved, pulling the reins and holding the horse’s belly to prevent his mount from running away in fright, and stared at Sir Ross with a burning gaze.
One person and one dragon.
Their eyes seemed to be clashing in the air, sparks of electricity flashing.
When Sir Ross was about to pounce forward, he suddenly opened his wings and flew back into the air with a beautiful sudden stop and tail flick.
Hooray!
The strong wind with flapping wings stirred up the dust on the Cinder Avenue, as if a small sandstorm had erupted, making Russell and several knights unable to open their eyes.
Galloping high and high, the horse ridden by the manservant Ram fell to the ground in shock, throwing Ram to the side and groaning.
“Huh… bah!”
Russell breathed a sigh of relief and quickly spit out the charcoal residue that splashed into his mouth.
Staring at the retreating clay dragon Rose, a fierce light flashed through the darkness, and there was anger hidden in his heart.
A mere two-legged flying dragon actually dared to slap his nose on his face: “Damn dragon! Just wait, wait for my little dream dragon to come back…see if I don’t ride you to death!”
A good mood, so bad.
Russell couldn’t wait to kill the clay dragon immediately and sprinkle the clay dragon’s blood on the land of his manor to create a large clay mine.
Of course, just thinking about it.
“Sir, Sir Ross’s way of greeting you is a bit too enthusiastic.” Tom, the knight’s retinue, smiled awkwardly.
“Yeah, the enthusiasm is too much.” Russell didn’t want to say more. He glanced at Ram on the ground and said, “Go and see if Ram is injured.”
“No, no need, sir, I’m fine.” Ram struggled to get up, but his legs were trembling, unable to stand at all, and he fell to the ground again.
“He was scared to death, sir.” John, the knight’s guard, directly picked up Ram and put him on the horse. “Fortunately, his leg was not crushed by the horse, otherwise the leg would have been crushed… Okay. , soothe the horse yourself.”
Ram took a breath: “Many, thank you, Sir John.”
Russell asked: “Ram, check carefully, are you sure there are no injuries?”
“I’m not hurt, really, sir.”
“Can I still ride?”
“Okay, okay!” Ram grabbed the reins and tried to straighten his back, “Master, you don’t have to worry about me, I can keep up.”
Mr. Ross’s greeting was just an interlude.
The clouds in the west had just been lit up, and a group of six horsemen arrived at the Fluorescent Castle. After passing through the stone arch, they met a group of knights patrolling the castle.
The leading knight in shining armor rides a monster that looks like a black horse. The monster’s muscles are knotted, tall and majestic. There are black flames burning on its neck, four hooves, and tail. However, these are not real flames, but a special kind of mane.
Russell immediately recognized that this was the Nightmare Ghost Horse, a phantom beast that evolved from an equine animal. It was very fast and could leave no trace in the snow.
Clang.
The knight in shining armor stood on the back of the nightmare horse, beat his chest with his right hand, and performed a knightly etiquette: “Master Russell, long time no see.”
Russell also beat his chest with his right hand and returned the salute: “It’s been a while since I last saw you, Knight Commander Chris. Are you personally guarding the castle today?”
“Today we need to promote the majesty of the Baron.” Knight Commander Chris replied. He is the guard knight captain of Baron Roman. He leads the knights to patrol the town twice every month to ensure that the people do not forget the message from the lord. ‘s rule.
“Then please come to Black-waisted Snake Manor another day and I’ll treat you to a drink.”
“With pleasure.”
After a brief greeting, the knights left the castle and went to town to promote the majesty of the baron. Russell didn’t waste any time and entered the castle gate directly.
“Father, mother, I’m here to tell you a happy event.” Russell took out an exquisite jade box from his arms, “While I was placing the fluorescent mushroom worms, I accidentally discovered that there was actually a baby in the birch tree. Wild Elves.”
After opening the jade box, the baron and his wife saw a white birch insect with tiny black lines all over its body.
“It’s really an elf bug, Russell, my handsome and lucky son!” Meryl happily kissed Russell on the cheek.
This is a very common move, but Russell’s body is a little stiff.
Fortunately, the baron and his wife did not notice this. They were all attracted by the birch insects in the jade box. The baron was especially surprised: “Wild elf insects, well, no wild elf has been found in the Youguang Valley for many years.” Insect?”
Meryl smiled: “My dear, you have discovered it now, haven’t you.”
The baron laughed: “Yes.”
Then he patted Russell on the shoulder: “Lucky young man, it seems that letting you go to the Black-rumped Snake Manor is a wise choice.”
“This is thanks to your trust, father.”
“If you want to thank me, just thank your mother. She is blowing pillow wind in my ears all day long. I don’t want to encircle you so early, especially since you haven’t made any military exploits and haven’t even gone to the snowfield to hunt a single person. Just a snow ghost.”
Russell followed suit: “Mother, thank you.”
Looking at her second son who was becoming more sensible and sweeter, Meryl took Russell’s hand and laughed non-stop: “We are a family. We don’t need to pay attention to the old traditions of the aristocracy. It doesn’t matter if we kill the snow ghost or not.” , my son is born a nobleman.”
The baron said helplessly: “After Russell becomes a great knight, he will still have to hunt snow ghosts. Only those who have fought on the snowy fields can be a qualified lord.”
“Father, I will.”
“very good.”
“By the way, father, I want to ask you something.” Russell asked about the purpose of this trip. “There are not many trees in my territory. There is only a piece of birch forest suitable for planting fluorescent mushrooms. But now the birch forest has given birth to birch worms. I I don’t know if it’s suitable to be planted with fluorescent mushrooms.”
“Don’t worry about this. In fact, it is not only harmless, but more beneficial.” Baron has rich experience in this. “Although fluorescent mushrooms are parasitic on tree trunks, they are symbiotic mushrooms. The two can benefit each other and promote each other’s growth. “
Russell said happily: “Is that so? That’s great.”
