Within the log fence is the settlement of the plantation. The architectural styles inside are very different, showing the different characteristics of half-elves and barbarians respectively. They mainly include log cabins, mud and grass huts and underground shacks. They are neatly planned and clearly layered, showing the status of the residents in the plantation.
The leader of the barbarian slaves, Ingrid, assigned two men to take the young barbarian slaves bought by Rhodes into warm and spacious mud and grass huts. However, she could not deal with the seriously injured and dying Xinna and the barbarian boy Yog. Know what to do with it.
The female shaman and her son were abandoned at the gate of the plantation by their own people, but they could also be counted as Viltok's slaves. Under normal circumstances, Ingrid would refuse to take in these two barbarian slaves. However, Vice Captain Harker of Braun Town and Rhodes of the Iron Cross Regiment were all surrounding Wiltok, and they also maintained a lower profile. The leader of the barbarian slaves, Ingrid, could not sense Wiltok's charming qualities, so she naturally understood that this strange young half-elf had a high status.
Ingrid couldn't make the decision, so he could only ask others for instructions.
The person the barbarian leader asked for instructions was not Huck, the deputy captain of the guard, nor Captain Rhodes, a frequent visitor to the plantation.
On top of the arrow tower on the log fence, a small group of half-elf archers walked down the stairs. The half-elf at the head was wearing a professional suit and carrying a bow and shield. He should be a bow warrior like Annie, but his professional level was unknown.
Rhodes from the Iron Cross Regiment calmed down his impetuous mood, went up to him with a smile, and said enthusiastically: "Let me introduce to you, this is the guard captain of Braun Town, the fourth-level archer Joseph. And this handsome man The extraordinary young man is the one I mentioned to you, Mr. Wiltok of the White Horn Adventure Group."
Joseph was a middle-aged man with sharp eyes. His deep facial features outlined an unsmiling image, and he had a kind of indifference that would repel people from thousands of miles away. However, he naturally leaned slightly and saluted Vertok with a gentle tone. Said: "Mr. Wiltok, on behalf of Mayor Mine, I welcome you to the plantation as a guest."
Wiltok has not yet learned the etiquette of the Disa half-elves, and he has never considered "entertainment" as a problem that must be solved. He was thinking about the language spoken by the barbarian shaman, so he pointed at Xinna and asked : "Lord Joseph, do you have a way to cure her?"
Joseph was startled for a moment and looked at the unconscious female shaman who was held in the arms of the barbarian boy. He shook his head in embarrassment and said: "She has been cursed by the orc shaman. We have no good solution. We can only try Let’s try... Ingrid, find an empty wooden house to house them, and then think of a solution.”
Ingrid nodded, looked at Xinna and Yog with indifference and disgust, and said in half-elf language: "You follow me."
The status of female barbarian shamans in small tribes is second only to the patriarchs. Sometimes, their right to speak is even higher than that of the patriarchs. But a shaman who is about to die is another matter, not to mention someone like Ingrid who has been growing up since childhood. The female slave who was sold to the half-elf no longer regarded the barbarians as compatriots, and even particularly disliked the shaman who was respected by the barbarians.
There was finally a glimmer of light in the dead eyes of the barbarian boy Yog. He first looked at Wiltok, with a grateful expression on his face, and then he carried his mother on his back and followed Ingrid in vain.
After handling this matter, Joseph's expression became a little strange, as if he realized that his attitude towards Wiltok was too polite, but he continued: "Everyone, Master Myen heard that you are coming, and plans to host a dinner for you. I We have prepared a residence and lunch for you, please have a good rest, and we will see you in the evening...Mr. Wiltok, come with me, the mayor is waiting to see you."
The barbarian language spoken by Shamanshina touched the "knowledge puzzle", but its stimulus to the "knowledge puzzle" was far less intense than the first time Wiltok saw the text of the notice. Now that Xinna and Yog have been settled, Wiltok now wants to meet Mayor Mine and learn the Disa half-elf writing from him.
He had a hunch that restoring his written memory would be of extraordinary significance to him!
However, Wiltok had a strong sense of crisis. He felt that he was not strong enough to protect himself. With an uneasy mood, he looked at John next to him as if he was asking for help.
Vice Captain Huck immediately said: "I also have matters to report to the mayor, let's go together."
Joseph, the captain of the guard, showed a sarcastic smile. Without saying anything, he led Wiltok and others to the most magnificent building in the plantation.
Watching Wiltok and others leave, Carl from Qin and the Whistle Adventure Group couldn't help but said: "The relationship between the deputy captain and the captain of the Braun Town Guard is very bad."
The leader of the group, Charlie, said calmly: "The mayor and guards appointed and dispatched by the Luoye City Council can only live in the plantations outside the town and lead a group of barbarian female slaves to open up wasteland and cultivate the land. All matters in Braun Town are completely decided by the people of the Adventure Union. Do you think their relationship can be good?"
Anne sighed and said, "It's all because of the schism in the sect. The Taku and Hemo tribes are unwilling to accept the teachings of the Earth Goddess. It's a pity that fourth-level professionals like Joseph can only be buried in border plantations."
Katie joked with a smile: "You never said anything like this in Braun Town. Are you afraid that the female warriors of the Hemer tribe will beat you away?"
Annie rubbed Katie's round face angrily and said angrily: "This is respect, respect, do you understand? The Earth Sect has been divided for more than a thousand years, and the Taku and Hemo tribes have never forced half-elves to worship the Earth Mother. Doctrine...well, they are strong, and the strong should be respected. What's wrong with me respecting the beliefs of the Hemer people?"
Two beautiful female professionals were laughing and joking, and Thomas, who had always been taciturn, also joined in the conversation, "Actually, the most critical reason is that Myen and Joseph offended some big shots. They were assigned by the Luoye City Council. If you go to a border town, you may never be able to go back in this life. Of course, Bottom and the others don’t need to look at Myne’s face.”
Karl's curiosity was aroused and he asked in a low voice: "I heard that Myne has the title of sage and was originally qualified to aspire to the throne of the consul of Luoye City. Why was he sent to the border to farm?"
Thomas had always admired Anne in the team, and he deliberately showed off in front of his sweetheart, so he said reservedly: "Before we came to Braun Town, my aunt specially told me not to get too close to Mayor Mine. It is said that his affairs Involved in the civil strife of the famous Nightingale family in Rapids City. A branch of Nightingale's servant suddenly came to power. Many people died in the Rapids Highlands in one night, and even caused turmoil among the sixteen famous families in the alliance... I can't know the more specific situation. .”
"That's enough, we can only talk about these things... let's go." Captain Charlie ended the conversation and led his team members to the temporary residence.
Joseph led Wiltok and his party to the living room on the first floor of the mayor's residence, asked them to wait for a while, and then politely said goodbye and left.
Wiltok looked around curiously at the furnishings in the living room on the second floor. The style of this house is exactly the same as Dr. Cole's house. They are both large buildings with two floors. There is an open staircase leading directly to the second floor. Standing on the living room platform on the second floor, you can see the living room on the first floor.
However, there is a white glazed rock statue standing in the living room on the first floor of this house. It is similar in size to an adult half-elf. It is a naked female half-elf with long hair that reaches the ground. She has a plump body, wears a wreath of wheat ears on her head, carries an overturned water bottle on her left shoulder, and holds her chest with her right arm, like a breastfeeding posture. Her expression is peaceful and holy, and she outlines the feminine charm.
Wiltok was greatly amazed. He always felt that this statue had some special meaning, but the "Knowledge Puzzle" did not give corresponding feedback.
Just when he was about to "explore" the secret of the statue, an old voice came into his pointed ears along with the sound of footsteps going downstairs.
"The earth goddess Siresta, she is the origin of life and the incarnation of all things. She symbolizes reproduction and fertility, and represents the virtues of tolerance, patience and love. My child, you can touch the statue of Siresta, just like a child who misses her mother's comfort. , the husband misses the comfort of his wife, and the father misses the dependence of his daughter. The role you play in front of Siresta can prove the greatness of women, and will also inspire you to keep moving forward, and help you gain the courage and belief to overcome all difficulties."
Wiltok suddenly retracted his fingers, turned around and saw an old half-elf slowly walking down the stairs with a cane. His hair was all white, his beard reached down to his chest, and there were deep wrinkles on his forehead, but his eyes were bright and impressive, with a look of wisdom.
"You are so old, you are the oldest half-elf I have ever seen." Wiltok blurted out, and then asked enthusiastically: "Can I touch your arm?"
The old man saw Wiltok's appearance clearly and was obviously stunned for a moment before blurting out, "What a beautiful half-elf, you remind me of those highland half-elves. Although they also have outstanding beauty, your characteristics are completely different. Maybe only Only the Nightingale family, who are famous for their beauty, can compare with you. However, the purest bloodline of the Nightingale family all have black hair, while your hair is the most common brown color... What is going on? "
Seeing that the old half-elf was deep in thought, Vertok reminded him: "You haven't agreed yet. Agree quickly. I asked you first."
He thought that asking the other party's opinion first and then starting to investigate was already a concession. But the other party did not agree to his request, nor did he explicitly reject it, which made him a little impatient.
"Why do you want to touch me? Isn't it good to touch those young and beautiful girls? It should be difficult for them to refuse your request, right?" The old man asked inexplicably.
Seeing that the conversation between the two people was getting weirder and weirder, Huck quickly interrupted: "Mayor Mine..."
The mayor scolded him rudely, "Shut up. I have nothing to say to guys like you. You all sit quietly for me. If you can't sit still, get out... Little guy, answer me first, why?" As soon as we met, you wanted to touch my arm?”
Vertok shrugged his shoulders and said: "I have never seen a half-elf as old as you in Braun Town. I want to use the touch of my fingers to explore you, just like I handled the mud scorpion in the hotel kitchen, first look with my eyes, Then by touching it with your hands, you know where to cut the knife, and you can smoothly remove the mud scorpion's hard shell."
Huck, John and others finally understood the reason why Wiltok liked to use his hands and feet. At the same time, they felt a chill and even the hair on his arms stood up.
It turns out that this guy thinks of me as a mud scorpion waiting to be shelled and dismembered?
Wiltok learned from Captain Hack that the old half-elf in front of him was Mayor Mine, who was going to teach him how to read. His enthusiasm for learning writing suddenly increased, and he put aside the idea of probing the other person and looked at him again. The other party glanced at me and asked, "Are you Mayor Main? Can you teach me how to write now?"
Mayor Main couldn't stand Wiltok's out-of-the-box way of thinking, but he could feel the desire to learn words from his eyes.
He also looked at Wiltok with the eyes of looking at treasures, and smiled: "Amnesia makes you regress into a baby? This is a very rare example. It is... it is a new life! If, I let you explore the old and the young People are different, how about you let me study you for a while?"
Wiltok immediately felt offended. This feeling was very novel, but he still couldn't restrain his anger and yelled: "You are a bad person... If you teach me writing for free, then I can forgive you first. "
Mayor Main stared at Wiltok, and after a long while, he muttered: "This is not the attitude of studying..."
Vertok strode towards the door without saying a word. John, Huck and others quickly followed him, and Huck asked: "Wiltok, where are you going?"
Wiltok said without looking back: "I'm going to find Annie and Katie. This is not Braun Town. They can also teach me to write."
When Mine heard what Wiltok said, he immediately became anxious and shouted from behind: "Hey, stop, how can a little girl who just graduated from the academy compare with me? I am a sage recognized by the Alliance Council... Stop it, okay, I’ll teach you for free, no, I’ll pay you to teach you how to read.”
Wiltok finally stopped at the door, turned around and asked, "How much do you pay?"
The old mayor shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I will teach you 500 cursive characters first. If you learn them all, I will reward you with 5 silver towers... If my old friends knew, I would spend money to beg a child to learn from me." Write and they will definitely laugh out loud.”
"Study now?" Wiltok took back his left foot that stepped out of the door and asked.
"Don't worry, we can have lunch first and chat while eating...and so on."
Seeing Wiltok's left foot step out of the door again, Main immediately changed his mind and said with a serious expression: "There is no rush about lunch. We can learn to write and eat at the same time."
