'...'
Early in the morning at the Mid-mountain Market in the Valley of Four Winds, the industrious Pandaren farmer Lao Yu stood blankly next to the farmland he planned to open up with his hoe, and then his furry face with a pair of black eyes The hair on my head stood on end, and I couldn't hold back a word for a long time, and I didn't know what to say.
Anyway,
Looking at the yellow one not far away, the little girl's flying mount 'Big Yellow', the big guy named the dragon roared angrily, and was breathing fire to burn the wasteland in his few pieces of wasteland, and began to use four claws The ground was raked wildly, and the sharp claws plowed deeply into the soil. In the next second, both hard stones and hard clods of soil were dug out in an instant, and the red-eyed rabbit demons who jumped out were also burned. What a great guy. After being shocked, Farmer Old Fool could only nod reluctantly, expressing his great satisfaction!
To be honest, after observing for so long, he had to admit that he really could not find a better, more efficient or harder-working animal to plow the fields... Whether it was the alpine yaks or the plateau Mushan beasts, or even As for the strong horned sheep or the huge turtle dragon turtle, etc., I am afraid that they are not half as good at work as the other party.
'ah……'
'It's really, really great...'
At first, he, Laoyu, was not worried about the little girl who was being punished, so he planned to come early in the morning to see if he could help and supervise the work, but unexpectedly, the rhubarb in the little girl's house seemed to be all over the place. Just a dragon can handle all the work, and there is no need for anyone to get in the way?
Therefore, Lao Yu decided:
After the big guy, after the rhubarb finished its heavy work, he took the old vegetable leaves picked from a few bamboo baskets, the radishes that were about to rot, the cabbage, etc. to entertain the hard-working rhubarb. Great job guys! After all, such a big yellow cow must have a huge appetite, so he, the fool, must prepare more.
"!!"
"Little girl, your rhubarb is working so hard, haven't you ever thought about helping?"
After nodding with satisfaction at the hard-working rhubarb, the old man was going back to his home to have a few drinks. However, before leaving, he subconsciously blamed a certain little girl who was supervising the work. asked.
Because he felt that this little girl was too cunning, and children should not develop the habit of laziness from an early age. Since he had the opportunity, he would definitely supervise her. After all, yesterday, he thought that this little girl would Do it yourself, and then he can take the opportunity to educate?
"!!"
!? (??''????)??
"I'm still a child with my little arms and legs. How can you, a bad old man with a rough face, let me do that kind of hard work like farming?!"
s (??╭╮??)ゞ
Poor, weak and helpless Lady Queen Anne said that a little girl with no strength like her would definitely not be able to plow the ground or plant fields, so the hard work and dirty work should be left to her family. Rhubarb, who is 'hard-working and uncomplaining', go and do it.
Also...
??乛??乛??
She would not tell a certain old panda man that a certain big yellow was originally unwilling to work. However, after she beat him hard... and taught him a lesson, he soon became honest. He got up to work very early in the morning, and was ready to finish several days of work in one morning, and no one could stop him. Anyone who wanted to help was in a hurry. kind?
"oh?"
"Little girl, you are very dishonest... I can see that you are as cunning as those nasty little cubs among us Pandaren... But I won't care about you so much, since your rhubarb will soon If we can complete that job, then let’s forget about yesterday’s incident.”
"But in the future, you must remember that you, a little outsider, must not cause trouble to everyone here in the Valley of the Four Winds and the Mid-Levels Market. We do not welcome that kind of dishonest and clever kid!"
The farmer, Old Fool, who planned to go back for a few drinks, did not want to waste his time on a little girl he had just met for a day, so after a few pretentious words at the end, he patted her belly and patted her. He patted his butt and trotted towards his home while carrying the hoe which was still clean and had no chance of being stained with soil.
A few days ago, he just brewed a pot of good wine. So, while he was free today and didn't have to work, he had to drink a small cup... Of course, it might be several large cups?
"Gah~!"
(????????-)??
"You old fool are not honest!!"
ε=(??ˇεˇ????))) Bah!
After making a big grimace and pouting at the opponent's round body and back, Annie took one last look at a certain 'big yellow' and felt that the opponent would not be sneaky, then she nodded with satisfaction and said Turn around and walk to the west away from the Mid-Levels Market.
"Hum hum……"
????(????｀??)??????
Lady Queen Anne wanted to eat Flame Spirit Salmon for lunch today, so just now, she had already gone to make arrangements with the master chef, Uncle Yan Ironpaw.
Although the other party agreed to her request and symbolically accepted a gold coin from her as meal money, the hateful Pandaren uncle also said at the same time: She cannot be allowed to develop a lazy child like her, and cannot be allowed to develop a lazy attitude towards eating. She spends 'other people's' money too easily, so she has to get the king salmon and the best green onions to cook the 'Fire Spirit Salmon', so will he help with the cooking?
However, little Annie felt that if the cunning panda was not deliberately making things difficult for her, then he must be trying to take advantage of her!
Because the other party only said that deliberately after seeing her big, flying rhubarb, and at the same time asked her to help him before noon. Did the old farmer Shanzhang help him bring back several sacks of vegetables and other crops that he had already ordered?
However, due to the other party's status as a chef and for the sake of her own future food, little Annie had to reluctantly agree...
Actually,
After getting up early in the morning to eat the 'Misty Pork', she had already gone to Lao Nong Shanzhang's place, but the other party's crops were still in the field and had not been collected and packaged, so she had no choice but to fly back again and bring someone to the farm. The bronze dragon who only wanted to cheat and cheat was rushed to rake the ground...
And now, she was going to go to the old Nong Shanzhang's fields in the west. Of course, she was definitely not going to do farm work for him, but to help that annoying old panda man catch chickens!
That’s right, catching chickens!
Because the old guy said that he was in trouble. His prize-winning hen ran out of the cage yesterday and refused to come back. Now it must have run into his free-range flock of free-range chickens and other hens. , pheasants, wild birds, and... some ill-intentioned roosters mixed together?
Therefore, before the other party prepares the crops at noon, Annie needs to go to the west of the other party's farm and south of the Skyscraper Ridge to find and capture the prize-winning hen, and then the other party will take away the goods of a certain hateful chef. And some good fresh onions for her to take back to make Flame Spirit Salmon?
But...
(????ω????)
Little Annie is now thinking, does the award-winning hen taste different from ordinary hens? Therefore, she is very confused now. She doesn't know whether she should eat the homemade 'Peanut Grilled Chicken Skewers' for lunch, or continue to eat the 'Fire Spirit Salmon' that she has not eaten again for a long, long time?
|????ω??`)
In short, it was an important issue that she should think about slowly. Maybe, by the time she wandered into the field of the old farmer Shanzhang, she would be able to make a decision?
Although, she has already obtained a king salmon...
But she wouldn't tell others that the fish actually came after she kept harassing a certain pandaren fisherman who was fishing by the river, throwing rocks near his bait, and even threatened to use magic to fry the fish. Just got it.
??乛??乛??
but……
She is still struggling. Should she eat chicken or fish for lunch? Or, is there any way to eat both chicken and that 'Fire Spirit Salmon'? !
(??????﹃??`??)
Fortunately, it was morning now, and there was still a lot of time. So this early in the morning, with the birds chirping and the sun shining high, she still had time to slowly think of a solution.
(*^▽^*)??
suddenly!
There was a rustle in the grass on the roadside, and then a monster almost half as tall as Little Annie jumped towards her.
"..."
∑(??△｀)? !
"Go away! I don't want to eat you yet!!"
ヽ(ヽ`д′)┌┛★)?????????)Ah fight!
After kicking a certain red-eyed rabbit demon that suddenly jumped out of a cave on the roadside and waving the sharp bamboo blades in its claws to launch an attack on her, she kicked her far away. Little Annie spat on it before continuing to carry it. Watching his little bear jump forward.
"La la la..."
"I am a happy little boss..."
????(????｀??)??????;◇;??
Now she needed to take advantage of the time on the road to continue thinking about the important issue that she was thinking about just now that made her very entangled, but at the same time made her drool.
As for what to have for dinner after figuring out the lunch problem...
"..."
??～(??ε｀)
Well, that kind of important and complicated issue should be thought about after she has had lunch and gained strength, because she feels that now she should continue to struggle with the issue of whether to eat chicken, or whether to eat fish and chicken. Better?

ε=(????｀●)))Alas
————————
…
When a troubled little girl was stranded in the Valley of the Four Winds in Pandaria for some reason and was preparing to chase chickens, the far north of the Eastern Kingdom, Lordaeron, which she had completely forgotten, At this time, they were still confronting those evil undead natural disasters.
but,
Strangely, due to the unequal intelligence between the two sides, they were silently confronting each other between the Royal City of Lordaeron and Brill, only half a day's journey away and about ten miles away. It seems that no one on either side intends to engage in a large-scale battle, and they are just maintaining a basic 'peaceful' state like that?
So, everyone originally thought that the Battle of Lordaeron would be in full swing, and it might even be a fierce battle that would end with the fall and defeat of the Royal City of Lordaeron, but it stopped without warning and entered a temporary period. The confrontation stage finally gave the people of Lordaeron, who were feeling uneasy, some precious breathing time.
after all,
If this stalemate continues for the time being, it will obviously be extremely beneficial to Lordaeron and even the entire alliance! Because this means that they can calmly deploy and deploy more and more superior troops, and gather the strength of the entire Lordaeron Alliance to fight against the undead, instead of just using Lordaeron's weapons as they do now. The remaining military forces and part of the dwarves of Dalaran and Eagle's Nest Mountain went to deal with it in a hurry!
If the undead can give Lordaeron a month or even longer time to arrange and arrange things calmly, maybe Lordaeron's side can even change from a passive defensive state to an active attack?
Of course, no one in Lordaeron would dare to think about that kind of thing now. Without enough intelligence support, they are still suspicious and confused about why the undead haven't attacked yet. Guessing, still worried and afraid that those evil and terrifying beings are brewing some terrible conspiracy that they don't know about.
…
At this time, far to the south of the continent, in Stormwind City in the northwest corner of the peaceful and peaceful Elwynn Forest, in a newly built and beautiful stone mansion, there was a young, beautiful, sexy figure and noble temperament, and... The countess with straight shoulder-length black hair and beautiful black eyes, Katrana Prestor of Stormwind City is sitting comfortably on the chaise longue in the study room of her own mansion, while using He was sipping the special aged wine from Donggu with a goblet, while teasing the pug next to him, which didn't even look very big.
"..."
However, her beautiful eyes at this time were not focused on the wine glass, nor on the pug that was so comfortable being touched by her. Instead, they were slightly half-squinted, not at all. Regardless of the focal length, it's not clear what she was thinking about that made her so focused.
finally,
I don't know how long it took, but she seemed to have figured something out. After raising her head and drinking up the bright red blood-like liquid in the cup, she turned around with her delicate and slightly blushing face. Then she looked at the puppy who was being scratched on the chin by her and making bursts of grunts from its throat.
"Crichito..."
"Tell me, what do you think if I give you to Anduin as a playmate?"
Although it was in a questioning tone, Countess Katrana Presto herself knew that once some of her words were spoken, it meant that she had already made a decision. The opinions of others or other dogs would not matter. It's obviously irrelevant.
'Woo~ woof! ! '
U ????` U
The dwarf pug wagged its tail and barked softly, conveying its meaning to its owner.
"Um?"
"What, you don't look happy?"
The movements of her hands paused for a moment. A certain countess seemed a little dissatisfied with the reaction of her dog? So, she slowly turned her head and stared at the 'Crichito' who kept wagging its tail and rubbing its dog's face against her thigh.
'Woof woof~! '
▼-`????-▼
The dwarf pug wagged its tail and once again conveyed its opinion accurately to its mistress.
"..."
"But, do you know that Anduin is the prince of the Kingdom of Stormwind, and he will definitely be the king in the future. As long as you follow him, you can be popular and drink hot food from now on, and you don't have to follow me every day."
"Also, if I don't take care of you from now on, you can wander around Stormwind City as you please... I have seen it before. There seem to be many beautiful bitches in the city. They..."
However, before Countess Katlana had time to finish her words, the dog that was being scratched on the chin by her casually suddenly started to stir, and then ran directly in front of her and waved vigorously. Holding your tail and wagging your tongue, nodding your head?
'Woof woof! ! '
▼⊙`????⊙▼
Its meaning was obviously very clear and straightforward, because it was persuaded by its mistress, and it had no way or reason to refuse certain conditions issued by the other party.
"All right……"
"I'll find an opportunity to send you out in a few days!"
"However, you must remember that you must 'protect' him for me. Also, I don't want his character to be too strong. I hate that Varian, so I don't want his son to be with him. Same thing, you have to guide him appropriately, do you understand?"
The Countess, who was quite satisfied with the other party's recognition, stared at the eyes of the stupid dog in front of her for a while, and then warned with a slightly threatening and terrifying look.
Unmentioned, there was absolutely no reason why she gave away the dog named 'Crichto' in front of her! In fact, everything Katrana Presto did was efficient and justified, otherwise, her plan would not go so smoothly now.
'! ! '
'Woo~ woof! Woof! Woof! '
▼⊙`????⊙▼
No matter what the matter was, or whether he could complete it, Criscito, who only knew to agree first and then take advantage of it, wagged his tail vigorously, and then kept rubbing the mistress's calf, indicating that he had no intention at all. Any questions, we guarantee that we will complete all the tasks assigned by the other party.
"snort!"
"In this case, then you must not let me down, otherwise, I think you will know the consequences..."
After glancing at the other party, Earl Katlana said nothing more, and ignored the other party's vigorous shaking of his head and tail and attentiveness to him. He just drank the wine produced in the East Valley leisurely in his own home, licking his fingers, and talking in a certain way. With the help of a simple mage, the bottle of wine placed on the table flew over by itself and half a cup was poured into his own cup.
"..."
Now that Crichto's matter has been decided, it's time for her to think about other things, such as...the things in the West Wilds and the Blackstone Mountains. There is no such thing as a hateful guy in her family. Don't cause her any trouble in the Redridge Mountains and Burning Steppes, especially in Lakeside Town.
Although she had suppressed the matter, she also knew that it would definitely not work if she kept suppressing the matter. She had to think of a way, either to get rid of the troublemaker or to find out what was going on. If the troublesome person is killed, sooner or later one will have to choose between the two.
Just as Countess Catalana continued to leisurely drink the fine wine from the East Valley at home, continued to tease her stupid dog, and made up her mind to find a better way to solve the problems in Lakeside Town as soon as possible, suddenly, A spark rose from the candlestick on her table, and then a small dragon-shaped fire ball suddenly exploded in front of Countess Katlana, and flew around her in the air, scaring her and The dog in front of her jumped!
"..."
Katlana was stunned for a moment, and then quickly remembered what that thing was. After a moment's hesitation, Katlana lightly kicked a stupid dog that was still planning to rub her calves and be courteous to her and ordered:
"Silly dog! Go out and walk around by yourself!"
With a look from her, a stupid dog named Crichto understood the situation and turned around and ran out. He soon disappeared without a trace, and he didn't know where he went.
"..."
She subconsciously turned her head and squinted her eyes and looked around. When she found that there was no abnormality in the room or around the house, Katrana frowned, stretched out her slender hand and tapped it lightly, still walking around her. That little candle in the form of a dragon.
puff! !
The moment Katlana's finger touched it, it exploded on its own in vain, and then, a piece of parchment burning with black fire on the edge fell out of the small dragon-shaped fire ball that exploded, and the top , then something was clearly written in some complicated ancient writing:
'Oni...'
'The plan has changed, and we will immediately do our best to help the Kingdom of Stormwind quell the unrest, and urge the Kingdom of Stormwind to send troops north to support Lordaeron as soon as possible...'
The parchment with the black fire burning in the corner exploded again after Catlana glanced at it twice, and after confirming that she had read the content, it burned directly in the white hands of the Countess and soon there was nothing left. A cloud of charred ashes fell.
"..."
Katrana didn't mind the black fire burning in her palm at all. She simply made a fist and easily grabbed it and the ashes into a ball.
"!!"
"snort!"
She snorted in shame and anger. For an old guy who had been silent for a long time, but now suddenly sent such an inexplicable new message and instructions, Katlana was deeply dissatisfied!
"Damn it! What on earth does that old man mean?!"
Katrana had no idea what was going on, so she just gritted her teeth and cursed secretly.
You know, she finally forced Van Cleef and the Stonemasons Guild to rebel, and was about to plunge the Kingdom of Stormwind into fierce internal strife. Her plan was already well planned, and she even made some preventive measures for the future. arrangement, but now, the old guy suddenly appeared again, and asked her to fully support the Kingdom of Stormwind, stabilize Stormwind City as soon as possible, and then send troops north?
What on earth did that guy take her for? Why did he suddenly appear and completely deny the results she had taken risks and worked hard for many years in one sentence? !
but……
After the initial shock, shame, anger and annoyance, Katrana soon gradually calmed down and began racking her brains to think about what she should do next.
"damn it……"
However, she soon discovered that besides complying, she seemed to have no other better way?
After all, she didn't dare to disobey the old guy's orders, so she could only compromise and start thinking about what she should do to clean up the mess she had made in Stormwind City as soon as possible. Then go and complete the mission that some old guy just wrote in the letter?
"..."
snort!
In fact, it is not difficult to solve the problem between Van Cleef and the Masons' Union. She, Katlana, thought of two good ways in the blink of an eye:
First, the simplest thing is to kill that guy Van Cleef, and then let the king and nobles send troops to suppress the stonemason union. However, this may be more time-consuming and labor-intensive. I am afraid it will not be quelled in less than a year and a half, and , that stubborn King Varian might not be too willing to do that.
After all, it is indeed very bad and inhumane to default on wages to the Stonemasons Union and then send troops to suppress them. Otherwise, the other party would not have just expelled the Stonemasons Union from Stormwind City.
Then, I'm afraid I have to choose another way...
After thinking about it, Katrana began to rummage in her drawer. After a long time, she picked out a few letters and smiled proudly, because a relatively perfect plan was gradually coming to her. It is brewing in my heart and gradually perfected.
"It seems..."
"I need to go to Stormwind Fortress..."
Although it is very late now, Countess Katrana Presto, who feels that the matter is 'important', feels that it is only appropriate for her to go there overnight when the matter is urgent?
…
Stormwind Keep, a massive fortress perched atop the cliffs to the north of the city, not only guards Stormwind but also provides a home for King Varian Wrynn and other nobles of the city.
And at this time,
King Varian Wrynn was dealing with the mess of military and political affairs alone in his study, not knowing what to do.
Now, although he has received an alert and a request for help from Lordaeron, Varian said that as the king, he has absolutely no solution...
Because, after all, Lordaeron is still too far away from Stormwind City. Moreover, things within Stormwind City and Stormwind Kingdom are still in a mess. They are too busy to take care of themselves. Even they are in turmoil. In addition, Stormwind City has just Not long after the reconstruction was completed, the country was extremely weak. With only defense, how could he send troops so quickly to help Lordaeron deal with the undead plague that was said to be very powerful?
If there is peace in the Kingdom of Stormwind, no matter how difficult it is, Varian will immediately lead the largest army on board the ship and rush to rescue Lordaeron. He will never look back on that kind of thing! However, he cannot do that now, because once he dares to mobilize the elites guarding Stormwind City and Darwin Forest, Stormwind City may be captured again before they arrive in Lordaeron.
And now, the thing that makes the Kingdom of Storm the most distressed and disgraceful is the mess involving Edwin Van Cleef and the other party's Masons' Union! !
"well……"
Varian sighed, could only rub his forehead, and weakly pushed aside the messages for help sent by Lordaeron's messengers.
He will definitely send troops to support Lordaeron, but it may not be possible in a short time. He only hopes that the other party can hold on for another year and a half, and let them in the Kingdom of Stormwind sort out the domestic affairs first, and wait until there is no more Let’s talk about it later when you have no worries?
And now, the thing that bothers him the most is actually not too complicated. It is all caused by one thing, and that is - money!
Yes, it's because of the Kingdom of Stormwind, or it can be said that it's because Varian Wrynn, the king of the Kingdom of Stormwind, has no money! Now, their Stormwind Kingdom's military and political expenditures are already in deficit! And the Stormwind City and Storm Fortress they are rebuilding are even more so on credit!
As for the object of the credit, he no longer wants to think about it... because once he thinks about it, things come back to one damn thing, and that is money!
original,
Varian made an agreement with those nobles at the beginning, and may have promised various conditions and benefits, but he didn't know what happened, let alone what went wrong. At the critical moment, in Stormwind City After the completion inspection, when he felt very satisfied and could find no faults and was ready to pay the wages...those greedy nobles suddenly regretted and refused to pay all the wages of the Masons' Union in one go, but chose to withhold and unlimited wages. deferred payment? !
To be honest, if it were Varian Wrynn himself, he would definitely not be able to accept that kind of thing. Therefore, for those rioters, those thugs who killed his queen, and those who caused trouble in the west He would tolerate the utmost tolerance among the Masons of the Wilderness.
Therefore, the miserable king Varian really had no money, but the wealthy nobles did not know what medicine they had taken wrongly, so they deliberately denied it and were unwilling to pay the money. In the absence of a large salary to support the family, the conflict between the two parties broke out, and the king, who was still confused about the development of the matter, became the center of the whirlpool...
Then,
Before Varian could react, his beloved queen died unexpectedly in a riot. Afterwards, he was so angry that he expelled the Masons' Guild as a matter of course, and expelled the thugs who violently resisted directly from Stormwind. City, expelled from this magnificent city built by themselves.
Then, there is no need to say more about what happens next.
Now, the union members who were expelled from Stormwind City went to the Western Wilds together, and it didn't take long to turn the original western granary of the Stormwind Kingdom into a place of chaos, and the other party also entangled a lot of opposition to Stormwind City From time to time, the thugs came to Elwynn Forest or Stormwind City to attack and cause trouble, and gradually developed to the point where they are now so big that they can't lose their tail.
Coupled with Lakeside Town, Karazhan and the Cursed Lands that require constant monitoring, there are so many external things entangled in the Kingdom of Stormwind, coupled with serious civil strife, even if he knows what is happening in Lordaeron, he still What can be done?
Now, his original choice has firmly bound him to the Kingdom of Storm...
but,
As a staunch supporter of the Alliance of Lordaeron, Varian, who received a lot of care from Lordaeron back then, did not completely say that he did not intend to support him. Therefore, he stayed up all night at this time and was thinking anxiously. There are various possibilities, and I want to solve those problems as soon as possible and find a way to send troops.
"cough……"
Varian sighed heavily again...
"Well?"
"Count Presto, what are you doing?"
Suddenly, Wrynn heard the sound of the door opening. When he looked up tiredly in frustration, he saw that the person who came was the young, beautiful and capable Countess Katrana Presto, and he couldn't help but ask curiously. One sentence.
He knew that because of the other party's identity and the need to meet him, the guards outside would definitely not be too difficult.
"Hi~!"
"Your Majesty the King, I have a way to quickly stabilize things within the kingdom. I wonder if you would like to hear about it?"
Seeing King Varian who was sitting behind the table looking at His Majesty who seemed to be in a bad state of mind, Katrana suddenly smiled charmingly, stepped forward, picked up the kettle, and poured the king a refreshing hot drink. Then he asked softly with a smile on his face.
"ah?"
"What did you say?!"
