our family is gone

Chapter 361

Those who do farm work can be regarded as physical labor, and the intensity is not low at all. Their appetite is also very good, especially after a night of digestion.

Although they can't really let go and eat a big meal, this kind of life now is something that they couldn't even imagine before.

Whether it is working as a serf for a farmer in his hometown or working for a local lord, it is good to have black bread to eat.

One of the ways those farms used to control rats was to tell the serfs whoever caught the rats would belong to them, and the hungry serfs would do everything they could to catch the rats.

Because everything in this land belongs to the master, it is already a gift to let you eat rats. It can be said that the only meat they can eat is rat meat.

And because mice are not fat these days, after plucking, they are like chicken necks with only a layer of skin and no meat, so serfs will call the mouse meat chicken necks.

What I eat is chicken, but only the master can afford it. Life is so good!

You can say that you are kidding yourself, but chicken necks are good enough for them, and they didn’t even have chicken necks and black bread when they were refugees.

But now all this has become a distant memory. The lord gave them shelter, gave them food, gave them safety, and more importantly, gave them dignity and treated them as a real person.

And all they have to pay is labor, no, more precisely, building Hamlet.

This is their "home" and of course they will work hard to build it.

There is a strong figure standing out above the dining hall of the farm. You have to be very careful when you sit in the normally designed position to squeeze yourself in.

Others eat from a plate, but he eats directly from a basin. The bread and fish porridge are at least three times the amount of others, and there are five eggs and three cups of milk.

But the others never had any objections, not because they were afraid of him.

It's that his workload is horrendous, and even ten people may not be able to get a seat. This hearty breakfast is what he deserves for his work.

Everyone on the farm knows him as the boar Balin, a lumberjack born with supernatural powers.

You must know that he is only 13 years old now. If he hadn't reported his real age too honestly and was brushed off, he should be in the army by now.

"Hi~Bahrain, good morning!"

"Good morning." Bahrain responded, raising his hand to pass the egg over, "Do you want to eat?"

"No, I'm full, eat more." The man looked at the eggs in Bahrain's hands and waved his hands. They were a logging team, and they came to wait for Bahrain to go to work together.

What contradicts his exaggerated body is that Bahrain has a good temper. Everyone likes such a big guy.

Balin didn't care, and simply stood up after eating everything. The tall figure of nearly two meters was very conspicuous among the crowd.

When he went outside to pick up tools, the logging ax that ordinary people need to hold with both hands was like a toy in his hands.

The sky had just brightened, and Bahrain entered the forest on the edge of the farm like everyone else.

These trees that grow wildly under the influence of the power of the wilderness are facing natural enemies today.

Bahrain wields an axe, and every blow can cause exaggerated cracks. The waist-thick trees can take half a day to cut down a tree, but he cut it down in a few strokes in his hand, just like a logging machine.

But Bahrain, who was working hard, suddenly stopped the work in hand, and the others also noticed and stopped.

"What's the matter with Balin?"

"There seems to be something in the woods."

Everyone's expressions changed when they heard this, because the last time Bahrain said this, a wild boar weighing nearly [-] pounds and with scimitar-like fangs rushed out the next second.

But they didn't show too much fear. On the contrary, they all gathered together and looked eager to try.

Because the wild boar was held down by Bahrain after it came out, and it is still being bred in the pigsty, and they were rewarded for it.

At the same time, this is also the origin of Bahrain's nickname "wild boar". It is unimaginable for ordinary people to be able to catch a wild boar with bare hands without the help of traps and weapons.

If it wasn't for the fact that the wild boar is still mating in the pigsty, most people would probably think it was bragging.

This is why everyone likes to team up with Bahrain. The logging team is at the forefront of reclamation, and some beasts often come out.

The other teams will be attacked if they are not careful, but the team with him is not afraid of those beasts at all.

Balin walked towards the forest with a logging ax in his hand, but what he found when he approached was not a wild beast, but a fallen white wolf with wounds all over his body.

Several other people also hurriedly gathered around, because someone had asked them about the wolf with white fur before, so everyone knew that the white wolf was the lord's pet.

"Isn't this the lord's wolf? Go back and call someone!"

…………

The discussion about equipment in the farm barracks did not end. On the contrary, they were very interested in these things closely related to themselves.

"I can't count on the equipment, but I heard that the military uniform has to be confirmed. Everyone has a share in this."

"Who doesn't know, everyone has a share, doesn't it mean we have nothing to do~" The spearman wasn't too excited, what's the difference between having all of this and not having it?
"But this time, the lord personally designed it for us, do you know?"

When this news was thrown out, everyone became agitated and discussed in a hurry.

"Is it true! Who did you listen to?"

"I don't know what it's like?"

"That was designed by the lord, it must be very good!"

No one objected to this, as long as the lord is good, anyone who says the lord is not good will be beaten.

This is not high-handed management, but everyone believes in the lord, as always.

After all, no noble will treat them as human beings, not livestock like the lord.

But just as they were discussing the military uniforms, there were shouts from outside.

"Captain! A lumberjack found a white wolf in the forest. He was seriously injured and fell to the ground, but he was still alive. He asked us what should we do?"

white wolf?Wolves of this coat color are not common.

When everyone heard this, they immediately thought of something, because the lord's white wolf ran away before, and the higher-ups asked them to pay attention when patrolling.

As long as it's about the lord's affairs, they are not qualified to decide. The head of the camp immediately named a ten-man team without too much hesitation.

"The first team stays behind, the second team will go with me to have a look, the third and fourth teams are patrolling normally, injuries indicate that there are wild animals or enemies, everyone be careful with your weapons."

"Yes!"

The entire camp sprang into action because of the news.

It's not that the white wolf is so important because it belongs to the lord. It's like saying that if a wolf is seriously injured, it means that there are more powerful beasts or enemies nearby, and it may invade the farm and affect production and life.

It is their job to keep the farm safe.

After they went outside, they approached the lumberjack who had discovered the white wolf, and learned about the situation while they were on their way.

"This morning..."

Acting quickly, the person in charge led the second team to the forest, and found that the white wolf, whose breathing was already weak, was having difficulty even moving.

These soldiers had also fought with wild beasts, and they knew that such injuries would not survive even on wild boars or wild bears, but the white wolf in front of them was not dead yet, so it could only be said that it was the lord's wolf.

"That's right, I've seen that white wolf, and it's this one."

Most of the soldiers who followed the lords to fight against robbers, bandits and cultists can recognize them.

"You go back on horseback and report this matter, and say that the white wolf who is suspected to be the lord has been found, but he is seriously injured, so let's see how to deal with it."

"Yes!" The man took the order and rushed out, leaving the camp on a fast horse and running towards the town...

In the town of Hamlet.

Although the lord trusted him very much, Grindel did not dare to slack off at all, and was already busy at the work station just after dawn.

Generally speaking, these things are handled in the government building rebuilt by the mercenary guild, and the position of the consul is specially designed here.

But the lord didn't like to work in the government affairs building, and said some weird things like "it's impossible to go to work, and it's impossible to go to work in this life".

Instead, he prefers to handle government affairs in the mansion, saying that it is more comfortable to "feel like coming home".

So here is vacant, just for her to take over.

Although the system built by the lord is still a bit crude, it represents efficiency and execution for a small place like Hamlet.

It was a very ordinary thing to be presented to her, except for some basic reports and approvals, it was nothing serious until the news about the discovery of the white wolf came up.

"Let that soldier come to see me." Grindel called the man up immediately.

The soldiers rushed back all the way, and they were called up before they sat down as soon as they reported.

But they are not the serf soldiers who are Latino. This amount of exercise has not been warmed up during training. A brief report of the situation made Grindale fall into silence.

She thought the same as everyone else, whether the wolf was the lord's pet or not, such a serious injury also meant that there were enemies around the farm.

Grindel knew to some extent the strangeness of the land of Hamlet, and this made her even more vigilant.

It stands to reason that both the abnormality and the white wolf should notify Lance first.

But she knew that the lord just came back from the beast den yesterday, and she also learned about the hardships of the journey from Boudica. She didn't want to wake him up because of a little trouble, so she immediately decided to go and see what was going on.

"Come on, I'll take a look with you."

Grindel doesn't know how to ride a horse, but Lance specially prepared a carriage for her, which was the little nobleman who came over to pick peaches after beating the witch.

As long as it is useful, you can naturally feel the meticulous care of the lord.

When Greendale came to the farm, the white wolf had already been brought into the barracks.

At first glance, it doesn't even have a good piece of fur lying on the cart. Although it has been treated briefly, it still looks weak like it will die at any time.

Although there were great changes, Greendale also recognized that this was the lord's white wolf named Wangcai.

That's why I was surprised.

You must know that the purity of the blood can already be regarded as an extraordinary creature. It is impossible for ordinary beasts to be its opponents, even the evil beasts in the mountains can fight.

What was it that hurt it so badly?
Thinking of this, Greendale approached the past to study carefully, but when she saw the wound on Wangcai's body and felt the remaining power on it, she fell into uncontrollable emotions.

This kind of power... Could it be that the wolf has chased him here?

Greendale is the doctor of the mountains. She has seen all kinds of injuries, including bloodier battlefields. It is basically impossible for her to feel scared when she sees injuries.

She reacted this way because she recognized what had caused the injury.

The strange power remaining in the wound is the wolf god who has a blood feud with her!

Fortunately, she also experienced hardships, and soon calmed down,

Didn't you see that the wolf battled over the mountains and suffered heavy losses?How could she escape from the mountains under the hunt of the wolf warriors alone?

Moreover, he was also influenced by the lord during this period, and his heart was no longer as wandering and rootless as before. With the backbone, his ability to resist pressure was naturally stronger, and he would not collapse emotionally because of this.

Greendale began to think about what happened after Wangcai fled. She is a doctor in the mountains and knows a lot about various tribes.

After a brief thought, he understood the reason. I am afraid that the Langya tribe is coveting Wangcai's blood, so they chased here, not because of themselves. All this is just a coincidence.

The key to this matter is this wealth...

Who is that Lance? She probably knows that he is very defensive after getting in touch with him. If Wangcai dies at the hands of the Wolf Fang tribe, the enmity between them will increase, and he will not worry about avenging her.

At the same time, once Wangcai died, no matter what plans the Wolf Fang Tribe had, it would be shattered. As long as it could disrupt the actions of those guys, Grindale was very interested.

Thinking of this, Greendale looked at Wangcai with a slightly strange look.

You don't even need to do it yourself, just drag it and it will die by itself.

After hesitating again and again, Grindel gave up the idea, and took out a bottle of potion from her pocket and handed it over.

"Feed it and drink it."

It's not that she has any kindness, but that if Wangcai dies here, the protective traits will also backfire on her.

With Lance's ability, she can definitely guess what. She doesn't want to create a rift between the two, whether it's for revenge or other...

The Lushou tribe's potion Zhanlang agreed to use it, and the soldiers helped to pour it down. Wangcai's condition began to improve within a few seconds. It couldn't be seen from the outside, but the breath had stabilized.

In the end, she still chose to believe that Lance would fulfill her promise to herself, and turned to give orders to the person in charge of the camp.

"Now let people go back immediately to inform Leonard to tell him that there are traces of barbarians nearby, and ask Sheriff William to come over to assist in the search, and then stop the work on the periphery for a while and withdraw the people."

Grindel's ability cannot be questioned. Once the decision is made, she will act decisively without any delay.

But at this moment, there was a specious howl in the distance.

Grindel turned pale instantly when she heard that, with deep worry and even panic emerging, but she suppressed it in an instant, and changed her order with a stern face.

"It's too late, the enemy has already discovered us, and now immediately withdraw all the people from the farm."

After a short pause, he spoke the last sentence.

"Light up wolf smoke..."
