The Wizard’s Fairy Tale

Chapter 29 Night Watch

In the afternoon, Old John came out of Gretel's house.

Then I will trouble you with this matter. Old John turned around, raised his head slightly, and said reservedly and politely to Old Gretel who was standing at the door.

It's my honor to be able to serve the Baron! Old Gretel chuckled slightly, and bowed slightly. Old Gretel still has some friends in Patras. Tomorrow, I will personally lead the way for Master John.

That's great! Old John nodded, If it works, Lord Baron will not be stingy with the reward!

Old Gretel suddenly smiled like an old chrysanthemum.

Well, see you tomorrow. Old John said, and left with a blank expression.

Old Gretel was still standing at the door, the smile on his face disappeared at some point, and he turned into a plain look, his eyes were like a bottomless deep pool, quietly watching the increasingly blurred figure of Old John .

Father, he has gone far away... There was a slightly sentimental and frivolous voice behind Old Gretel.

Old Gretel frowned, and turned around, who else is not his eldest son?

Why are you back? Didn't you go to find the stones and dirt that the baron asked for?

I can't find it! Big Gretel lazily replied.

If you can't find it, won't you continue to look for it? Won't you look for scolding in a farther direction? Old Gretel got angry when he heard it, and taught him a lesson.

I don't want to look for it! Everyone in the village has been looking for it for so long, but no one has found it! Father, could it be that the baron has already found it, but deliberately said that he didn't find it, so as to be greedy for the bounty? Big Gretel maliciously guessed road.

During this period of time, it is not that no villagers have turned in things similar to limestone and clay, but unfortunately, they are not what William is looking for.

Bold! You dare to slander the baron! Old Gretel was furious.

Big Gretel pouted, I'm just talking.

You can't even say it! Cough, cough, cough... Old Gretel coughed violently because he was too angry, and then glared at his eldest son, saying, The Gretel family has been able to live until now, relying on Don’t guess randomly! You have to remember that we are just a tool for sending messages! Tools have no thoughts of their own.”

Understood, Father. Big Gretel replied indifferently, You have said it many times!

Hmph! Seeing this appearance, Old Gretel sighed in his heart, paused, and then said, You don't want to go to the baron's escort if you think it's dangerous, and you don't want to find the mission issued by the baron if you think it's troublesome. , if this is the case, you can go to Patras with me tomorrow.

Patras? The baron's butler? Big Gretel was thinking very quickly, he laughed strangely, Is the baron going to buy real estate in Patras? He is already a brave man who can persist until today. nobleman!

Shut up! old Gretel yelled, and couldn't help coughing again, cough cough cough...

Isn't it? Poor those stupid villagers, some people really think that the baron will stay here in winter, fighting hard with those damned lizardmen? Nobles are not so stupid! Big Gretel said smugly.

If your words are heard by the Baron or his followers, how many days do you think you can hang on the village entrance? Old Gretel said coldly.

Big Gretel shuddered immediately when he heard the words, and looked around in fear, seeing that there was no one there, he took a deep breath and said in a low voice, The baron doesn't have so much time to take care of my business? Besides, He doesn't have many followers either, he's busy!

Hmph! Old Gretel snorted coldly, It doesn't matter if you seek death, don't implicate the Gretel family, and don't implicate your younger brother either. He is in the baron's guard, don't make him lose the baron's trust !

There was a cold light in Big Gretel's eyes, and he didn't speak.

Old Gretel looked at his eldest son in disappointment,

Said, Master John went to Patras to buy things for the winter, don't talk nonsense. Take a good rest today! Let's go on the road with me tomorrow!

Items for the winter? Could it be that the Baron really wants... Isn't this courting death? Big Gretel said in shock.

Old Gretel glanced at him, but without answering, walked slowly past him into the house.

Leaving Big Gretel standing where he was, frowning deeply.

Andrew...

Andrew is the name of Great Gretel. Hearing someone calling him, Andrew Gretel raised his head and saw Adams standing outside at a glance.

Mr. Adams, are you here to find my father? Andrew Great asked casually.

No, Andrew, I'm here to find you! Adams' answer surprised Andrew.

Find me?

Yes, Andrew, you heard me right. Adams said with certainty.

Andrew's heart moved, and he said playfully, Mr. Andrew, I don't have any secret news.

Andrew, you are so humorous. Adams laughed.

Mr. Adams, please speak up.

Okay. Adams approached Andrew, lowered his voice, and said in a voice that only two people could hear, I do have something to ask you...

That's not good... Andrew frowned deeply, looking at Adams hesitantly.

Andrew, winter is coming, do you really want to stay here? We need help! We need to save ourselves! Adams looked deeply into Andrew's eyes.

Andrew instantly remembered what old Gretel said just now, buying supplies for the winter, the swinging balance in his heart instantly tipped to one side, and he nodded.

Adams smiled meaningfully, Everyone in Nisai Village will be grateful to you, you are the hero of the whole village!

After being praised by Adams, Andrew's face became flushed.

At this moment, Old Gretel's voice came from inside the room, Andrew, who are you talking to?

No... Andrew came back to his senses and responded casually.

Then I'll go back first! Don't forget! Adams said silently.

Andrew nodded heavily, his eyes determined.

Early the next morning, Old John, Old Gretel, and his eldest son, Andrew Gretel, each rode a draft horse and carried enough dry food to the city of Patras.

The city of Patras is hundreds of kilometers away from the small village of Nisai, and even riding a horse would take a day.

It's still fast!

If there is a large group of people, the speed will be much slower!

Every year, the relocation of the small village of Nisai takes three or four days.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ...

At night, the small village of Nisai, at the end of the village.

The night in Nisai Village was too quiet, and the sound of wind and insects seemed to disappear.

The end of the small village is close to the dark forest, separated only by a low wooden fence.

In the dark forest under the dark night, I don't know how many fights are going on.

The air seemed to smell of blood, and occasionally there would be a few whimpers, like the last struggle of life.

A bonfire rose up, the orange flame brought warmth, and there was also a dim light.

Jacques Porter and Derek John were sitting by the campfire.

It's their turn to watch tonight!

Jacques Porter was holding two slices of brown bread on a fork, and they were toasting over the flames.

This is the supper William arranged for the night watchman!

Feeling that it was almost done, Jacques Porter brought two pieces of black bread in front of him and gently squeezed them with his hands.

hot!

soft!

It's ready to eat!

A look of joy flashed across Jacques Porter's face. Regardless of the heat, he pinched a piece of black bread and put it into his mouth to chew.

Hey, would you like some black bread? Jacques Potter said vaguely to Derek John.

In the long night, if no one talks, he doesn't know how boring it will be!

Derek John gave him a blank look and didn't return him, but continued to look at the dark forest outside the village.

Come on, buddy! Jacques Potter tore off a piece of black bread and stuffed it into Derek John's hand.

Drake frowned and glanced at Jacques, then at the black bread in his hand.

Man, you're welcome! Eat. Jacques said with a proud smile.

Derek rolled his eyes again, hesitated for a moment, then picked up the black bread and gnawed on it.

Hahahaha, that's it! Jacques laughed happily.

After eating, the relationship between the two of them seemed to be much closer, and they were able to talk a few words, instead of being relatively speechless before.

Jacques was munching on the black bread, and asked curiously, Dude, why do you keep watching the dark forest? Let me tell you, I have lived here since I was a child, and I have been tired of watching this ghost forest every day. It is better than my father. I'm tired of watching it! It won't take long, and you will be tired of watching it too! There is nothing attractive!

Drake looked more refined when he ate bread. He ate it in small bites, gave Jacques a disdainful look, and said, I don't see the Gloomy Forest! Don't you think the Gloomy Forest is very quiet tonight?

Quiet? Dude, let me tell you, the forest sleeps at night, not everyone is as great as us! Jacques was taken aback, and said immediately.

The small village of Nisai has never had the habit of keeping watch at night.

If William's treatment here is too attractive, otherwise these guards would not do it!

Jacques said while looking into the dark forest.

Well, it's dark, with a few green dots.

The green dots twinkle like stars in the sky!

Twinkle? Jacques suddenly reacted and looked over suddenly. Where is this green dot?

These are the eyes of the wolf!

Wolf attack! Jacques roared sharply, echoing throughout the silent night.

In the earthen hut, William, who was sleeping on the bed in his clothes, suddenly shook the magic mirror in his arms. William opened his eyes with a swipe, and bounced off the bed.
