December 13, early morning.
For the monkeys at the fruit-stealing monkey training ground, the first snow this year came with the new members. The monkeys that the lord ordered to buy have not yet arrived. Three pregnant female monkeys have given birth to cubs one after another. There are four monkeys in total, and one female monkey is pregnant with twins.
Perhaps Huahua Town is really a place favored by knights, and the four little monkey cubs have all survived.
They just happened to be able to see the first snowfall in Huahua Town, mixed with the howling north wind.
"Squeak!"
"Squeak!"
The monkeys use their own language to cheer for the arrival of the snow. When the snow falls, the fragrant coconut trees will stop growing and the fragrant coconuts will no longer be ripe. They have been stealing fragrant coconuts all year round, and they know it well. The fragrant coconuts are no longer ripe, which means that they don't have to work this winter.
pity.
Such an idea is ridiculous. Early in the morning, Ryan Giggs, the manager of the training ground, took out fake fragrant coconuts and started training day after day.
"The lord will buy more monkeys. At that time, this group of fruit-stealing monkeys will be the imitation objects of the new monkeys. Therefore, everyone, you must train well and let the fruit-stealing monkeys become role models!" Ziggs shouted loudly, On the training ground, he enjoys the authority of leadership.
The other fruit farmers had to listen to him.
"The female monkey I trained can no longer be trained today, she has to feed her own babies."
"Then you go shoveling snow."
"Why do we need to shovel snow? We don't shovel snow every year. It would be nice to just stay in the house." A fruit farmer said nonchalantly.
Giggston said angrily: "Correct your attitude, Advisor Galtai has already announced to the whole town that all farms and workshops must shovel off the snow in front of their gates and work areas, and after shoveling, snow will be piled up on the nearby roads." Shovel it! You idiot, don't you even dare to disobey the order of the advisor?"
Of course the fruit grower dared not listen, but he dared to complain to Giggs: "Why didn't you say it earlier, if you said it earlier, I wouldn't let the snow pile up on the training ground!"
Complaints are nothing but complaints, he still honestly took the broom he made on the farm and started to sweep the snow.
It just snowed overnight, so the snow is not thick and can be swept away with a broom.
Just like the fruit-stealing monkey training ground, just after dawn, the entire Huahua Town began a mighty snow-shoveling battle. The patrol team beat the gongs and drums, and went door to door to urge the serfs to get up and shovel the snow—the snow on the road must be shoveled first, so as not to delay the progress of the carriage and the construction project in the territory.
This winter is not destined to be peaceful.
In the castle and the administrative office, many meetings have been held to draw up the projects to be built in winter.
…
"ah!"
Stretching, Liszt was a little reluctant to get up from the bed.
It started snowing last night, and the temperature has dropped to the point where he needs to wear thick clothes, so he has already covered himself with a quilt—Earth Knights are certainly resistant to cold and heat, but no one will be foolishly cold, of course a warm quilt is needed .
However, with strong willpower, he resisted the corrosion of the bed, got up and opened the door.
The male servants and maids outside the door were already waiting.
Thomas, the manservant, will help him get dressed, while the housemaid will clean the room.
"Master, good morning." Thomas held the leather armor and saluted.
Little Lily, carrying a bucket, hand duster and mop, also bowed to Liszt: "Good morning, master."
"Good morning."
Liszt was already used to having someone help him when he got dressed. After carefully arranging his appearance in front of the mirror, he left the bedroom in a hurry and went outside for a walk with the dog.
Before I went out, I heard the cry of "Wow", "Wow". It was Zyra, the thorn elf, who flew out of the worm room and went out with him.
Liszt smiled and touched Zyra's little head: "Zyra, I'll take you to see the snow."
"Wow!" Zyra's eyes were wide open, and her curiosity was about to move. It had never seen snow before, and this was the first time it had seen snow since its birth.
Once out of the gate of the castle, it flew around excitedly, fiddled with the snow on the ground, trees, and windows from time to time.
"Wow!"
Standing at the door of the kennel, Dou Sen was also screaming excitedly. It was also the first time he had seen snow. However, it should have seen enough last night, and now it is probably because of seeing Liszt and knowing that he can have fun, he will be excited.
Unchain Dowson.
The mid-level monster, who was raised as a watchdog, flew out in one stride, wagging its head and tail in the snow, playing wildly in the snow.
Slap!
A small snow ball hit Dou Sen on the head, and Jie La imitated Liszt and made a snow ball for a snowball fight. But its hands are too small, and the snowball is even smaller, so it doesn't feel like it hit Dou Sen.
Seeing Dou Sen ignore it, he was furious, and raised his hand to sow the seeds.
However, Liszt, who was telepathic, felt the emotion and immediately stopped its behavior: "Zyra, play with the snow, don't scatter seeds."
If you are so mischievous, why not take it to plant trees in Thorn Ridge.
Then, he squeezed a huge snow ball by himself, and threw it over, slapping, right on the forehead of Dou Sen. He was stunned by the smash, and looked around, but he didn't know who smashed it. After a few seconds, its attention shifted and it started rolling in the snow again.
The snow was very thin, so he just pressed his body and the snow melted, revealing the clover grass underneath.
It is said that it is rolling snow, but it is actually rolling grass.
Very childish behavior, but considering that it is not even a year old, it is normal to be childish.
Leaving Dou Sen and Zyra to play in the snow by themselves, Liszt began to practice daily. The plan of a day lies in the morning, the plan of a lifetime lies in diligence, and the polishing of fighting spirit is the work of water. If you want to become a flying sky knight and become a saint with a sword, you have to work hard.
After finishing the fighting spirit training class, return to the castle to take a bath and change into formal noble clothes.
Let the servants move the dining table to the window, have a leisurely breakfast, and enjoy the picture of the servants shoveling snow. The tranquility that can only be found in the countryside is something he could not enjoy before traveling. Of course, the prosperity and charm of modern civilization is also incomparable in this backward world.
He sometimes asks himself, if he is given a chance to choose now, should he go back to his original life, or stay and be a nobleman.
In the first two months after coming to Huahua Town, he would choose to go back.
Now, he will choose to stay without hesitation and continue his unfinished business of riding a dragon.
"It's just that I kind of miss soy milk and fried dough sticks, and porridge steamed stuffed buns... By the way, why didn't I let Mrs. Abby and Renner from the bakery 'invent' steamed stuffed buns?"
They are also pasta, and pasta made of wheat flour is not just bread.
Steamed buns, steamed buns, flower rolls, dumplings, wontons, noodles, flatbreads, fried dough sticks, glutinous rice balls, siu mai, and ramen are all common pasta. Although Liszt was originally a southerner and didn't eat much pasta, dumplings and steamed buns are obviously more in line with his taste than eating bread every day.
Wanting to understand this, he couldn't help but think of the classic quotations of Mrs. Xianglin.
"I'm so stupid, really..."
