She always blushes when she speaks cautiously, and her blue eyes are very clear, probably because she is in good health. In recent months, her three meals have improved a lot, and some of her cheeks have become plump. She tightened her tight body and wore a sweater. She looked anxiously at the heavy snow outside the window and asked Surdak, "When will I go to Wall Village?"
"If you are not used to living here, you can stay outside in a hotel or rent a cabin!" Surdak grabbed her hand and said
Her hands are not smooth, some cocoons are ground in the palm of her hand, and there are some frostbite on the back of her hand. These are a pair of hands that often need to be worked.
"It’s good to live here and not live outside!" Natasha blushed and told Surdak that she was full of youthful and fiery breath.
Surdak took advantage of the opportunity to hug Natasha’s slender and soft waist and wanted to kiss Natasha’s deep red lips. At this time, she came to knock on the door and said, "Knight Surdak, are you back?"
Natasha, like a frightened rabbit, quickly escaped from Surdak’s arms and hid in the chair next to the table.
Surdak walked to the door a little naively and pushed the door.
Next door, two young girls were curious to visit Lina at the door of the trainee knight. In the blink of an eye, the big eyes kept blinking, and the fire almost burned out. Her face was smiling, and her eyes were divided into saying to Surdak,’ What? Don’t we make an introduction?’
Surdak let Natasha appear in front of the two teenage neighbors, and Lena and Della stared at Natasha in the room as if they had discovered a new continent.
"My wife Natasha!" Surdak looked at Natasha in the room and said
Natasha’s pretty face is reddish, but she tries to look up bravely at the two trainee knight girls and nodded slightly.
"These two are the neighbors next door to the dormitory, and we usually get along well," Surdak said, pointing to Lina, who is lively and active, and Della, who is a character. "This is Lina, and she is Della."
"What do you mean, it’s not bad to get along? Della and I also coached the history of Surdak Knight Empire. Surdak Knight also taught us skinning, which made us gain a lot in the experience of Korean pine forest." Lina frowned and said with great dissatisfaction.
Natasha stared at Lena and Della curiously, but she didn’t know it was time for them to communicate with each other. Her cheeks were red.
She thought to herself that Rita would not let the atmosphere die. She was so lost.
Finally, Surdak’s hint that it’s too late for us to have a rest drove away Lai’s two teenage neighbors who had been refusing to leave her room.
There is no light in the silent night room. Surdak holds Natasha’s terrace. From here, you can see the whole city of Hailansa. Not far from the bustling night, the Mage Tower is like a city that never sleeps. When you look back to the other side, you can see the street view of half the rich areas. Those manors are also lit with gorgeous lights. This night view is more surprising to Natasha in the living mountain village.
They were surrounded by a thick blanket, and Surdak held Natasha Batan’s shoulder tightly from behind and told her about the city in a small way.
Natasha clutched Surdak’s hand tightly. She tilted her head back and looked at Surdak’s side face with ecstasy. Another face in her memory seemed to overlap at this moment, and her spirit was a little trance.
"Little Peter will be a great knight after you become a knight, won’t he?" Natasha’s face was full of hope and asked Surdak
Surdak nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course, this honor will be reserved for little Peter. I promised old Sheila that when he grows up, we will send him to the Knight College, just like Lina and Della. If he wants to make meritorious deeds in the battlefield, he’d better join the Heavy Mountaineering Corps after graduation."
Natasha felt a warm current from her heart, and her eyes became a little moist unconsciously.
Suldak squinted and said softly, "If he doesn’t want to go to the front, I can keep him in the guard camp for military service."
"Really?" Natasha opened her eyes wide and never thought that one day little Peter could legally evade military service on the battlefield.
Surdak pinched her soft face and said with a smile, "Now your husband is the regional sheriff of the guard camp in the barren land of Pagros Mountain. This ability is still there!"
Natasha recited the novel "I’m not saying that there is anything wrong with the battlefield. All the young people in the village are going to the battlefield …"
"I know what you’re worried about … I know." Surdak’s mouth soothed Natasha with some excitement, but his eyes looked up at the head, and the sea of bright stars bathed in spiritual light kept spreading outward.
……
Riding through a circular garden surrounded by red bricks and around the circular cloister in the garden, I found the alley paved with stone strips. In Surdak Lane, I saw a low building with the plaque of the’ Yugoslav Defense Department’ at the entrance, which was on the second floor of the building.
He tied his horse to the door of the low building and stepped on the snow-covered stairs to the attic.
The snow here has not been cleaned yet. It looks really deserted. I knocked on the door and there was a lazy voice in the room. "Come in!"
Walking into the attic, Surdak saw the old knight’s armchair with his feet tilted on the table, looking at the door and seeing Surdak coming in wearing a salamander leather armor, which made him reluctant to ask, "What can I do for you if you don’t study hard at the Knight Academy?"
I didn’t expect the old knight to remember himself. Surdak hurriedly straightened up and handed the old knight a roll of parchment voucher in his hand.
The old knight saw the stamp of the city hall at the exhibition of parchment scrolls. He looked up in surprise and looked at Surdak again. He said, "It’s really rare for the city hall to issue knight certificates! It seems that you have made a lot of contributions. "
"Now that the city hall has admitted your knighthood, there is naturally no problem here." The old knight put his leg away and turned around. He took out a seal from the drawer and quickly stamped it next to it. Then he reached out and said to Surdak, "Give me your knight badge. The reserve can be removed."
The old knight took the knight badge from Surdak, walked to the file cabinet, put the badge in the mold and pressed it again, then removed the badge reserve symbol and replaced it with the official knight number.
It took almost no effort to complete these procedures.
The old knight solemnly put the knight badge on Surdak’s chest, and then they made a knight ceremony. This moment was full of ritual feeling.
The old knight patted Surdak on the shoulder and told her, "In this way, after you officially become a knight according to the knight law of the Green Empire, you can own a piece of land and become your knight collar. Of course, it won’t be too big, but choose a fertile place to support your family."
After that, I took out a huge map of Hailansa area from the cupboard. Although this map is not as intuitive as the sand table in the office of Marquis Bernard, the land is drawn with several boundary frames. Almost every land has a corresponding name logo. The old knight skillfully found some main places with red flags and pins inserted into the map, so Surdak could choose more intuitively.
Surdaken didn’t look at the main land in the area of Earl Huo Yier Manor and Baron Grenfill Manor, regardless of the old knight’s suggestion that he pointed to the land in Pustuca Mountain on the map and asked the old knight, "How much land can I get here?"
The old knight was so angry that Hu was about to cock up, pointing to the map and angrily saying, "What are you going to do to choose a barren land?" Have you never tasted bitter days, you silly little fool? Do you know that the land here doesn’t even grow grass? "
Surdak touched his nose with embarrassment and said to the old knight, "I’m from the village outside the mountain pass."
The old knight understood Surdak’s explanation, but he still earnestly persuaded him, "Oh, choosing a knight collar is also very particular. The closer you are to the city of Hailansa, the smaller your knight territory is, but the more fertile the land is."
He paused and took a sip before saying, "The farther away from Hailanza, the more territory you can get, but the more barren the land will be."
The old knight said with a frown, "If you want to choose the land outside the mountain pass, the examination and approval conditions at the town hall will be relatively relaxed, and the territory will be much larger, especially the barren land outside the Pagros Mountain Pass, where almost no one goes to grant you a whole hill."
Seeing that Surdak was quite impressed, he quickly said to him, "But after your field trip, it is best to find a place with abundant water and grass outside the mountain pass. It is best not to find it. It is best to honestly choose a piece of land here in the Korean pine forest. The territory there is the most cost-effective. You can first set up a logging yard in the general to cut down adult trees, so that you can get a home and cut down trees. Many new civilian knights will choose this way."
"If you were a noble knight, I wouldn’t tell you that so many people have rich families and can’t see this territory, but you are a civilian. Go back and think about it. Once you are selected, you can’t change it!" The old knight woke up again and again
Surdak repeatedly said that he would think it over before leaving the Knights.
Chapter 41 Shopping
The waiter at the door pushed the heavy carved oak door, and Surdak took Natasha into the magic lamp shop. As soon as he entered the door, he saw that the ceiling of the shop was covered with all kinds of gorgeous magic crystal chandeliers, and each lamp core was blooming with soft light, which set off the magic lamp shop room resplendent.
Natasha walked into the magic lamp shop and looked up at the chandelier overhead. Her eyes were full of surprise. She had never seen such a gorgeous lamp in her life.
Three rows of neat wall lamps are also installed on the surrounding walls. Most of these wall lamp bases are bronzes. These hand-made bronze bases have their own characteristics, ranging from maid figures to all kinds of Warcraft. Surdak even saw a double-lamp-holder wall lamp, which is like two winged people holding the ball of light with their hands high, which is the wick of the wall lamp lampshade emitting soft luster.
Even kerosene lamps are not available to every family in the poor village of Wall. We can save some lamp oil and have an early rest. Natasha’s face with Surdak is full of admiration and surprise. A salesgirl comes from the shop and her eyes show a slight disdain. Although Natasha is wearing a beautiful dress, the salesgirl can tell from Natasha’s behavior at a glance that Natasha is a countryman. People in the city will not show that expression on Natasha’s face.
However, her eyes flashed when she saw Surdak wearing salamander leather. Her eyes turned to Surdak’s chest and saw Surdak wearing a silver knight badge on his chest. She immediately smiled implicitly and sucked in slightly to keep herself in the best posture, which not only made her waist look slimmer, but also made her chest look taller.
It’s a pity that the knight’s adult didn’t look down on himself and tried to squeeze out into a ditch, but left those copper wall lamps.
The salesgirl immediately adjusted her mind. It was good for the knight to buy a lamp, so she gave a sweet smile from the bottom of her heart and asked in the gentlest voice, "What can I do for you, knight?"
Surdak’s eyes fell on the wall lamps in the shop wall and slowly turned to ask the salesgirl, "Do you have any lamps like the magic pattern array in your shop?"
The salesgirl took a surprised look at Surdak, and few customers would specifically ask for this. She hesitated a little and immediately said, "We do have magic lamps with magic lines in our store, but there are three wall lamps with magic lines in our store, the brightness of which is far less stable than that of moonlight stone wick lamps, and it takes an extra flower to consume magic stone fragments."
As she said, the salesgirl took Surdak into the shop. There were three swordsmen-shaped desk lamps on the display shelf in the corner of the shop. Surdak really felt a slight magic fluctuation from these three desk lamps. He bowed his head and carefully looked at the bronze statue. A piece of dark magic spar was carved and embedded behind the pedestal of the bronze foot. Here is the energy source of the desk lamp. The magic spar fragments continuously released weak magic power and let a glimmer of light shine around the bronze man through the magic pattern array of the bronze man.
Seeing Suldak look so carefully, the salesgirl said, "This magic pattern array table lamp is a little more expensive. You can actually look at these moonstone wick wall lamps and you can appreciate the advantages and disadvantages of the two types of lamps by comparing them slightly."
Then she introduced this wall lamp with a maid-shaped wall lamp face very hard. She couldn’t help thinking and recited the characteristics of this wall lamp easily and fluently. "This kind of moonlight stone wick wall lamp can not lose its brightness for five years, and it usually needs little maintenance and no other flowers except wiping the dust on the lampshade."
