Chapter 6 Decision
"Father, everything is like this. I don't know what you want?" Caroline stood aside, skillfully peeled off the dragon fruit's skin, then slowly cut it into small pieces with a knife, and placed it in front of the count.After returning from the town, Caroline told the earl everything, and it has been a quarter of an hour now, and the earl is still thinking.

After forking a piece of dragon fruit, Caroline put it in her mouth and swallowed it in two or three bites.Yes, these dragon fruits taste very sweet, and it seems that the juice must be delicious, Caroline thought to herself, then picked up the kiwi fruit on the side, cut off the head and tail, and gently turned it along with a spoon. In one circle, the skin of the whole kiwi is completely separated from the pulp.

Take a bite, feel the sweet and sour taste on the tip of your tongue, and a sense of satisfaction wells up in your heart.For Caroline, being able to eat delicious food every day is the greatest happiness, because no one knows what will happen to them tomorrow, so it is better to enjoy the delicious food in the world.It's a pity that there are too few delicacies in this world, so I can only eat some fruits to make ends meet.

Seeing that Caroline did not feel any discomfort after eating so much, the count was relieved.The reason for thinking about it for so long is only because of the method of entering the Lost Forest. If this method is leaked, the royal family will definitely send troops to neighboring countries. Once a war breaks out, these little nobles will all go to the battlefield.No one knew what would happen on the battlefield, and he couldn't take risks for Caroline.

And after watching Caroline eat a lot of these unheard of fruits, she has long been relieved.But if these fruits are promoted, it is inevitable that someone with a heart will notice something, and in the end they will try their best to learn the way from them, and the method of entering the Lost Forest is still in danger of being leaked.

What to do, the count hesitated for a moment.She could see that Caroline liked to eat these fruits, but it would be dangerous to develop them in large quantities, so there was only one way, and she said to Caroline: "If his method is really safe, take people into the forest It’s not impossible. But the large amount of development and notification to the royal family you said is not feasible, so don’t think about how to grow it.”

Caroline can think of using new things to earn gold coins, and has made some progress, but after all, she is still young and not as comprehensive as the count. In order to educate Caroline, the count continued: "If you know the method, then it will definitely happen. War, our family is in the borderlands, if there is a war, we will be the first to be dispatched to the front line, which is very dangerous for the whole family."

Caroline lowered her head and thought, what the earl said was indeed true. She was unable to protect herself now. If the earl was leading troops to go out, she would be the most dangerous person. It seems that the matter of transplantation should be put aside first.But it's also good to be able to enter the forest. She can check the number of these fruit trees and the growth environment. If it's really safe, she can let people go in and pick them out regularly.

After trying to understand this, Caroline nodded and said: "Caroline's consideration is too simple, but I don't know when Father is going to send people in. Caroline also wants to go in and have a look at this legendary fruit tree. It turns out that after Caroline brought these things back, she used to read them from ancient books. These things are said to have been extinct on the mainland, so no one knows about them now, and she happened to read them in a certain book Explain the reason to the earl.

The count knew that Caroline was reading books in the study every day. There were so many books, and it was possible that these things were actually written on them, so he believed what Caroline said so easily.After tens of millions of years, many things have indeed disappeared in the long river of history. It is not a novelty to suddenly find one or two of them now. After all, this is not the first time someone has discovered an extinct species.

"Send someone to follow him to have a look first, and if it's safe, I'll take you in together." The earl said solemnly. Only two people came back after entering the forest many years ago. This has always been a lump in his heart. If he can really enter and exit safely , that solved the problem that had been on his mind for so long, he wanted to go in and collect the bodies of the soldiers who died protecting him.

After all, the earl took the fork from Caroline, slowly forked a piece of dragon fruit and put it in his mouth. Feeling the sweetness of the dragon fruit, he became more certain about the idea of ​​entering the forest.The only fruit after dinner every day is apples, and the earl has long been tired of eating it. If there are more extinct species in the forest, it would be good to change his appetite every day.

Caroline can do what the count promised Caroline every time, so Caroline is relieved: "My lord, Caroline will leave first." She has been shopping in the market for so long today, and she didn't rest when she came back. , Now my legs are so sore that I can hardly stand up.Seeing the tired look on Caroline's face, the count said with concern: "Go and rest, and let the housekeeper come in."

Ever since Caroline and the earl entered the study, the butler has been standing outside the door waiting. I don't know why Caroline is in such a hurry to find the earl. Did something happen when she went out today?No, she has been in my sight all the time, how could something unexpected happen?The butler thought about it, but still didn't understand, so he could only stand outside the door and wait anxiously.Seeing Caroline coming out, the housekeeper rushed forward to ask, but before she could ask, Caroline said, "Grandpa housekeeper, if you have any questions, please ask Father, I'm so tired now I want to go back and rest." Knowing that Caroline is not in good health, the housekeeper saluted Caroline, opened the door and walked into the study.

"Lord Earl." Standing in front of the desk, the butler looked curiously at what the Earl was eating. These seemed to be the fruits they brought back from the town today. Could it be that the lady and the Earl were in a hurry to discuss this matter?But what exactly is this? It won’t be dangerous if you eat it, right?Why don't the servants try it, and the earl eats it himself, it's too dangerous.

"Butler, come and taste it." The count pushed the plate in front of him and said to the butler.

The butler looked at the earl, then slowly picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, chewing slowly.A special sweetness filled the mouth, which was worse than the sweetness of apples.The butler looked at the earl in surprise, and asked excitedly, "Lord earl, what...what is this?"

"Hehe, you don't even know." The earl chuckled. It seemed that although his daughter did not have the spirit of a knight, it was very easy to become a great scholar.If it weren't for the incident between Jon and Lean, his daughter must still be as unconfident as before, submissive.

"This is the fruit you brought back today. Caroline said that it was a species that had disappeared from a book. It tastes good. If you can bring back more, it can greatly improve the diet of the castle." The count paused for a moment, and then said: "However, in that case, the management of the servants in the castle will need to be strengthened. If this news is leaked, it may bring danger to the family." At this point, the count's eyes flashed A bloodthirsty gleam.

In this era, nobles are the symbol of power, and killing a few disobedient civilians is nothing at all.

"That's fine, but where did these come from?" After bringing the middle-aged man who knows how to set up a stall, the butler was so anxious that he forgot to ask him what he had talked with Caroline, so he didn't know where the fruits were. Came out of the lost forest.

The count leaned on his chin with both hands, looked at the butler and said, "Lost Forest."

"What?!" The steward yelled out in surprise, and then realized that he was rude, and hurriedly lowered his head and said to the count: "Please forgive me for being rude, but the lost forest is so dangerous, so the count should give up. That's okay, that trader It was just good luck that I escaped from it." The butler knew that the Earl was very guilty about what happened back then, but the Lost Forest was too dangerous, how could he let the Earl enter again.

"Why are you excited? There is a way to get in and out safely." The count glanced at the butler, and then said, "You can send someone to follow him in for a test first. If the method is feasible, I will bring someone in. Don't worry." The butler is concerned about himself, the Earl explained.As long as I can remember, the housekeeper has been by my side to take care of me. No matter how cold-blooded the earl is, as long as it is not those who try to plot against him, the earl is still easy to talk to. Of course, this is only for his own people.

The butler nodded. Just now, if he was concerned, he would be confused. Now that he thinks about it, the earl has passed the age of recklessness, and he will not do what he did last time, so he has no reason to object.It can be seen that the Earl really wants to enter the forest, for the sake of those warriors, and probably also for Caroline.

"Then you go and arrange candidates. You must be loyal and loyal. Remember to bring that vendor with you." After the earl ordered, he waved his hand and let the butler go out to prepare.The butler looked at the pensive count, sighed, and walked out.He still needs to ask the merchant again, and he must be sure that everything is safe. This is also very likely to be a conspiracy against the earl.

A few days later, a group of people quietly left the earl's castle, except for the three earls, no one knew where they went.

Caroline stood in front of the study window and watched for a long time as the team gradually drifted away.All we can do now is wait, and hope nothing unexpected happens.Shaking his head, he took out an old book from the shelf, and sat at the desk to read it carefully.

Compared with those fruits, Caroline cared most about everything in this world, everything that was hidden.Because she discovered from the book that many traces were deliberately erased.Caroline was very curious about what was hiding, and what was hidden might be what she had been looking for.
