Arthur and his party set out from Lingfeng castle, from north to south, and then visited the landform of Shanghe from east to west.


    Just five days after their change of direction, the wide Lord Avenue disappeared. Instead, it was a wilderness path not much wider than the forest path. The surrounding scenery gradually changed from low earth slopes to rolling hills. Until now, it has completely turned into rugged limestone hills.


    Arthur made full preparations for the inspection and tour, and loaded three carriages with food, spices, cooking utensils, including insect repellents and so on.


    At least as a noble Lord, and living a life without money, he is not willing to compromise himself.


    ……


    "Hey, how do you roast rabbit meat? Just smelling it makes people keep swallowing. It''s so delicious!"


    The small mercenary and axe asked the castle guard next to them wholeheartedly as they tore at the rabbit meat.


    "As like as two peas," the soldier''s axe nodded quickly. "It''s just the same as that in the hotel of the upper river town. If there''s another cup of ale, it will be even better!"


    Looking at him, the little man immediately scolded, "silly big man, you''re satisfied. This is a free delicious! It''s really not enough to take out all our gold coins when you''re in Shanghe town!"


    "I''ll sigh, you shout a fart!" the axe hummed back, and then stared at half of the rabbit in his hand. "Can you finish it, don''t waste food, or I''ll help you solve it together."


    "Fuck you, I never waste food!" the little man replied. With that, he tore off a piece of rabbit meat with an axe, and looked at the three guards beside him in doubt.


    He is also very curious that these guards of Lingfeng Castle don''t drink alcohol, but drink water - no! To be exact, it''s cool and white.


    That is, after boiling water, place it to cool and drink.


    Over the past two days, he has seen the guards boil water and pour it into the water bag after cooling.


    "Curious?" noticed the little man''s puzzled eyes, and the guard Albert shook the steaming wine cup.


    The little man nodded and said directly, "I heard that Shanghe town has produced a new kind of water like wine, but I don''t know there is this kind of drink after boiling water. Is there any special reason for this?"


    "That''s really a good thing!" the mercenary axe answered quickly. "I mean that kind of wine! You know, I''ve drunk it in Anne''s son. It''s so dizzy that I fell asleep. The price is really high. Such a big jar costs a gold coin! I guarantee that this must be the most expensive water in the world!"


    The axe drew a shape the size of a wine jar with his hand and grabbed a piece of bread.


    "You mean ''knight,''" Albert laughed.


    "Yes, yes, yes, it''s'' Knight ''. It''s a good name. If the bastards in the hotel don''t call a jar, they don''t seem to be men! Shit, if the price is cheaper, I''m sure those bastards want to be a'' King ''!"


    "Not me," said the little man. "I mean the bastard."


    Listening to their conversation, the three castle guards on one side showed a proud smile.


    Albert looked at them and said, "Knight, we can drink for free, but only when we have a rest. We will face a very severe punishment for drinking at ordinary times. Only these foods can be managed every day. Now we all love being vegetarian."


    be a vegetarian? The little man bared his teeth, scolded in his heart, looked at the wine cup and joked, "so you use hot water instead?"


    "How could this be possible?" Albert explained. "It''s for the sake of health to boil the water and drink it. There are many bacteria and parasites in the water. Boiling the water for a while can kill them. This is the request of the count."


    Bacteria? parasite? What''s this?


    The little man and the two were confused.


    "Does it work?"


    "Of course!" Albert said definitely. "Although hot water has no taste, after drinking it, it feels a little less every morning without a cup. Especially if you put a spoonful of honey, you can lick it into your intestines along the heat."


    They glanced at the honeypot in front of them and looked at the two guards who raised the cup to them. They were a little curious and wanted to taste the hot water in the wine cup.


    Honey is a premium.


    "By the way, I forgot to thank you yesterday, and I just learned. Your archery is really good. You can shoot that bastard at such a distance. Thank you!"


    With that, the little man looked at the Warcraft bow: "it''s very beautiful and unique. I saw you use it on horseback yesterday. This is also the new idea of Shanghe town?"


    "This is the bow of Warcraft. It was made by Lord Arthur."


    The little man nodded. He could see that the guard named Albert didn''t want to reveal more. Fortunately, he didn''t explore other people''s Secret habits.


    "Hey, can I try?" the axe said quickly when he mentioned the bow and arrow. "The range of this thing is absolutely not bad. I itched to try it yesterday, but we weren''t familiar at that time."


    "You really don''t see outside. Just scratch * * if your hands itch." the little man glanced his mouth. He noticed that the guards were somewhat embarrassed.


    "Grass! You don''t fucking want to try!"


    "Yes. But I tell you, it''s absolutely free of cost, and it''s not enough to sell you as a slave..." the little man glared at him and signaled the other party to restrain.


    The axe immediately understood, then smiled awkwardly, ate food, and didn''t mention trying bows and arrows.


    Albert did not dare to give the Warcraft bow to two people for trial. Although the count was having dinner with the mercenary named pace and seemed to talk about Sheng Huan, these guys were unknown after all, and they were all mercenaries. With the power of Warcraft bow, once there is any accident, they can''t stop the arrow even with their bodies.


    Looking at the two people who were suddenly quiet, Albert asked tentatively while eating white bread coated with honey: "you don''t look like ordinary mercenaries. Ordinary mercenaries won''t ask for trouble to hunt the people of the God of light."


    "Hey!" the little man smiled, "if you want to praise me for being tall and powerful, you don''t have to. Of course, if you can eat such food every day, I can work hard on my height."


    The guards laughed and the dining atmosphere was happy again. Albert also stopped testing. Although both of them were mercenaries, and their speech style was also mercenary style, they had a very tight mouth and could always evade his questions.


    But he was sure that the three men were by no means simple, especially their boss. Apart from anything else, the sword around his waist was not something ordinary mercenaries could have.


    Aside, compared with Albert''s "nothing", Arthur''s chat with pace can be said to be very fruitful.


    In the past two months, because they were chased by the wolf mercenary regiment, pace and others fled most of the Northern Territory, and naturally learned a lot of gossip.


    One of the most sensational is the ghost faced Eagle raging all over the country and the invasion of wild people outside the East. It''s just that Arthur knows these two things much better than pace and others.


    In addition, a series of changes in Shanghe collar have become an important talk in hotels everywhere. This is good information. At least when people mention Shanghe collar, they don''t always think of Warcraft and suffering.


    Of course, these news are far from fruitful.


    What really caught Arthur''s attention was that in his conversation with pace, the other party frowned and mentioned that the kewilt family might marry a nobleman in the West.
