Chapter 5
The sound of horseshoes sounded in her ears, and through the window of the carriage, Caroline saw her group cross the bridge over the moat outside the castle, preparing to drive towards the target town.Galloping all the way, looking around, there are endless tall trees.It seems that this is the Lost Forest. I don't know what will be in it, so I really want to go in and have a look.Caroline thought about it, but she gave up the idea when she thought that no one could get out of it smoothly.The spirit of adventure is important, but compared with life, it is clear which is more important.

"Miss Caroline, when I get to the town, I hope you will follow me obediently and don't run around." The butler was worried, and ran over on his horse, and warned.Caroline used to be in the earl's arms every time she went to town, but this time she brought her out by herself, I was really worried, and I hope there will be no accidents.

"I know, grandpa butler, don't worry." Knowing that the butler was worried about herself, Caroline agreed without any concern.In his father's territory, if someone dared to touch him, it would be a long life.All Caroline's mind is now is to find something that she can eat, skinny is not her pursuit.

Shaking his head helplessly, the housekeeper knew that Caroline hadn't listened to his advice, so he didn't say anything more, and he just had to watch it carefully. She was a weak little girl, and her legs and feet couldn't be better than He won't beat some of their tall and burly knights, not to mention that these knights are all good players he personally selected.

About a quarter of an hour later, Caroline felt the jolt of the carriage disappear. She opened the curtains and saw that the team had entered the town. Caroline became even more excited when she heard the cries of sales coming from afar. Shouted to the butler: "Grandpa butler, can I get out of the car?"

"Okay, okay, don't worry, when the team arrives at the other courtyard, just tie up the horses." The butler comforted, and ordered the team to speed up to the other courtyard in the town.In the earl's territory, each town has a courtyard in case of emergency.However, the Earl usually lives in the castle with Caroline, so the other courtyard is very simple because there are not many people.

After all the knights tied the horses to the stables, the butler carried Caroline out of the carriage, and a group of more than a dozen people walked out of the gate of the other courtyard and walked towards the market.Because it was still early, there were people coming and going in the market, and there was an endless stream of hawking.Seeing Caroline and her party, all pedestrians hurriedly stepped aside, saluted and left in a hurry.

Caroline pursed her lips. Although her current body could not be considered beautiful, she was still pretty. Why did these people feel like they had seen a ghost when they saw her.But she forgot that no one was allowed to appear on the streets every time the count came to visit the town.This time, she came by herself. If she came with the earl, she would probably only be able to sigh at the empty streets.

Caroline's heart sank as she quickly wandered over the stalls on the street, and her eyes were a little disappointed.The fruit sellers on the street have nothing but apples, let alone novelty foods.Hey, what can I do, apples can't be eaten as food.After ordering the butler to buy a basket of apples and send them back to the other courtyard, Caroline was going to take another walk, hoping that there would be surprises waiting for her.

Going farther and farther, seeing that it was about to reach the end of the market, an unoccupied stall caught Caroline's attention.

The stall was a middle-aged man with a long scar on his cheek from his left eye to his right cheek, which looked terrifying.Perhaps it is because of his appearance that no one patronizes his stall.He was squatting on the ground, with a long rag spread out in front of him, and on the rag lay yellow, red, and green fruits.

Facing these familiar fruits, Caroline couldn't believe it and was about to walk over to take a closer look, but was stopped by the butler, who whispered in her ear: "Miss, don't go there, that person is a murderer!" , Although it is a self-defense killing, it is very dangerous to go there rashly." The housekeeper had seen this man, and he once wanted to apply to enter the castle as a knight, but because he accidentally killed someone, he was not admitted to the castle.No matter how good the force is, if you have a bad temper and it's not easy to control, you still can't have it.If one day he is punished by his master, he still doesn't know how he will react.

"Grandpa housekeeper, you said it was self-defense, there must be a reason, don't worry, I'm going to see those fruits, it's not that I won't give him money, what else can he do to me." In order to eat for myself If you are full, try it even if it is dangerous, but although this person looks scary, you can't judge people by their appearance, he doesn't look like a bad person.Caroline thought for a moment, then walked towards the middle-aged man's booth.

Seeing someone walking towards him, the middle-aged man hurriedly raised his head and prepared to stand up.Caroline waved her hands indifferently, squatted in front of the booth, and fiddled with the things on the booth, but her heart was full of excitement.It turned out that the brightly colored fruits on the middle-aged man's booth were some fruits from his previous life. The yellow ones were mangoes, the red ones were dragon fruits, and the green ones were kiwis.These fruits were Caroline's favorite in her previous life. In this other world, Caroline was so happy to see the fruits she once liked.

"What are these? Where did they come from?" Caroline restrained her excited expression, looked at the middle-aged man and asked, if she could find a place where these things grow, at least it could be made into juice, which is better than drinking fishy smell all the time Full milk is much better.It would be great if there are other fruits.

The middle-aged man hesitated and didn't answer. He put these things out just to see the bright colors and to try his luck to see if someone would buy them. Even he didn't know what they were.But now he can't eat enough, and he has a wife and children to support at home, so he doesn't have time to think so much.If it wasn't for that accident, he would be in the Earl's castle now, and he wouldn't be like this now, and he couldn't even find a decent job.If it is impulsiveness, it is the devil, and you will regret it later.

Taking out a gold coin from her pocket, Caroline gently placed it on the middle-aged man's booth, and asked again: "Tell me where I found it, this gold coin is yours." She saw that The middle-aged man is in urgent need of money, a gold coin, in this kind of ordinary family, can spend several years if they live frugally.

Picking up the gold coin and biting it, he was sure it was true. The middle-aged man looked very excited and said, "I found it on the outskirts of the Lost Forest." After speaking, he hurriedly stuffed the gold coin into the out of the waist pocket.With this gold coin, he can take his daughter to see a better doctor.

"Lost Forest?" Caroline didn't believe it. It is said that the earl brought a group of people in, and only one came out in the end. How did this middle-aged man get in and come out intact? Does he have hidden strength?But it doesn't look like it. If he had the strength, would he still use it to set up a stall in the market?
I could see the disbelief in Caroline's eyes. Although the middle-aged man was a little unhappy, but because of Caroline's generosity, he continued, "I found something in the forest that can hide from beasts." , that’s why he can come back alive.” In order to avoid being caught up, he had no choice but to enter the Lost Forest, where there were many beasts, if he hadn’t accidentally found a plant that blocked the smell to avoid the beasts, he would not be able to live in the world now.

Caroline nodded, believing what the middle-aged man said, pointed to the fruits on the stall, and asked, "Are there many of these things in the forest?" If there are few, she will find a way to transplant some out , Ask the earl to find a piece of land to plant these fruits. It seems that no one knows that these fruits are edible. If they are successfully cultivated, they can also increase some income for the earl.For these novel foods, I believe that the big nobles must be willing to pay for them. If they mix well by then, the earl's title can move up and leave the border.

Although there is no war now, the country on the other side of the Lost Forest has always coveted the Arrant Empire. If they find a way to cross the Lost Forest, then the first unlucky one will be the Earl stationed on the Lost Forest side.It's okay to keep it, but if they can't keep it, their entire family will be wiped out by the empire.

"There were more than a dozen trees in the area I went to. You know that the forest is full of dangers, and I didn't dare to wander around, so I hid there for a few days." Seeing Caroline's interested expression, she Then he said: "If you still want it, as long as you can afford it, I will dare to go in again." Although I don't know Caroline's identity, but seeing so many knights behind her, she must be rich.In order to make money, he went all out.

Touching her chin in thought, Caroline stood up and waved to the butler behind her.The butler walked to Caroline's side, and Caroline leaned into his ear and said, "Grandpa butler, take these things and this man back to the castle, and then tell Father, I have something to discuss with him." If there is no Earl's support, she can't do anything by herself. If she can really enter the Lost Forest, then she hopes to go in with the Earl.I don't know what the butler said to the middle-aged man, but he glanced at Caroline, and then a knight who yelled at the butler with something left.

After shopping around the entire market, Caroline's feet were already hurting, and she couldn't breathe under the weight of her clothes.tugged on the collar,

She said to the butler, "It's getting late, pack up and go back to the castle." Apart from these few fruits, Caroline had nothing to gain, and she didn't know whether to be happy or sad.This world is too barren. It seems that food can only be solved from meat, and rice is out of the question.

Back at the castle, before the butler could hug her, Caroline jumped out of the carriage in a hurry and ran towards the study. She knew that the earl was in the study now, and she wanted to discuss with the earl as soon as possible to transplant fruit trees and explore the lost forest. Things on the outskirts of the Lost Forest.If it is successful, it is a great credit.If they report the news that the royal family can safely enter the Lost Forest, it will be a trivial matter to be promoted to the title. If they fail to deal with their branch, they can return to their own family and enter the royal family.
