NOVEL NEXT Chapter 22
Chapter 22
Cao Shurui didn’t give Lyudmila a chance to speak at all, and just opened her mouth.
Lyudmila flushed with anger and her expression was distorted, but she found that she could not think of a rebuttal.
“You!” Raising her hand to point at Cao Shurui, Liudmila, who was trembling all over, fainted with anger.
“…” Tagler was dumbfounded.
“…” Lim was dumbfounded.
“Hahaha, good point! Really relieved. She actually fainted hahaha…” Alan laughed and couldn’t stand firmly, and held on to Cao Shurui’s shoulder.
“Stop it. Seriously, Lord Ellen! This time it can be resolved safely, what about the next time? Are you really fighting? Do you think that we are involved in the battle between war girls, and ordinary people like us can How many survive?”
“I… I didn’t think well.” Allen puffed up his cheeks, lowered his head, and kicked the ground lightly with his right foot.
“So, it is your task to figure out how to conduct the conversation. No matter what, you have to remember to change the place before the fight.”
“Well, I remembered it.”
“Very well,” Cao Shurui said slightly, “we are going to Rodnik next, right?”
“Lordnick?” Tagler heard the unknown place name again.
“Riding for about a quarter of an hour from here, there is a small town named Lordnick. The residents there will clean it for me regularly. I am going to live in that small town tonight.” Allen explained to him.
Taking a deep breath, Allen calmed down his emotions: “Although it is a little earlier than the scheduled time, let’s go to Rodnick first.”
So everyone left the mansion on horseback and rushed to Rodnik through a flat grassland.
Lyudmila and Lim were unconscious on the same horse.
It didn’t take long for everyone to arrive at Rodnik.
Chapter 18 Moderation
Rodnik is more like a larger village than a city.
The city is surrounded by wilderness with nothing, and it is also far from the main street.
The road was made by pulling out weeds and compacting the ground, and small stones still rolled on the ground.
There are several open-air shops on the main road, but there are only a handful of shops.
“This small city…what can people rely on for their livelihood? This kind of environment cannot be commerce or agriculture.” Cao Shurui observed the city and analyzed.
“Your observation ability is good, Cao Shurui. As expected of my knight, different from the war girl in a small place.”
After hearing Cao Shurui’s words keenly, Allen turned around and smiled happily.
“There are hot springs here. That’s why I will bring you over.”
Cao Shurui and Tagler stared in surprise.
“Aren’t the hot springs only found in the deep mountains? Besides, there will be deer and apes…” Tagler said.
Hearing these words, Lim shook his head even more surprised.
“It doesn’t have to be in the mountains.”
“In this city, as long as you drill a well, the water that comes out is a hot spring.—Look.”
Allen pointed to a stone building in the distance. The floor area is about the same size as Allen’s villa, but the height should be several times higher. The flat roof is the most eye-catching building in the city.
“There is a large bathing place. There are three bathing places, each of which uses pipes to divert water from the hot springs. Let’s go quickly…”
Having said this, Allen closed his mouth.
—Zhan Ji in Lim’s arms, Lyudmila woke up.
———————————————
“…I was rude in the mansion before. You were right.” Lyudmila said solemnly after getting off the horse.
“No, Lord Lyudmila Laurie, I offended you before. Please forgive me.” Cao Shurui replied earnestly after getting off his horse and bowing.
After all, it was the wording that was inappropriate for his identity. If Lyudmila really wants to be held accountable, then Alan will have to hand it over to Cao Shurui. In this era, the dignity of the nobility is so important.
“I will forgive you for the time being. The truthfulness is also an interesting experience.” Liudmila looked at Cao Shurui’s eyes and nodded.
“Thank you very much, Lord Lyudmila Lowry.”
“You call that woman Ellen, right? For the convenience of communication, I will make an exception and allow you to call me Lyudmila.”
“Yes, Lord Lyudmila.”
“…By the way, I almost forgot to do business. I’m here to find the Earl of Bruny. I want to see what kind of person it is that can actually hire Zhan Ji as a mercenary.”
After speaking, Lyudmila nodded to Cao Shurui, and then took Tagler aside. Allen wanted to say (ridicule) something more, but was stopped by Cao Shurui.
It’s rare to temporarily ease the relationship, and it can be troublesome if you quarrel again.
Allen decided to wait for them to finish talking before continuing, so Cao Shurui and Limu had to stand beside her and wait together. Alan was a little impatient. She wrapped her hands around her chest, and stepped on the ground with the sole of her right foot, making a “tack tack” sound.
Fortunately, it didn’t take long for Tagler and Lyudmila to return. Tagler’s expression was very bad, while Lyudmila’s expression was boring.
“This city is really an empty place.” Lyudmila said, looking around.
“If you think so, go back quickly. I will happily send you away.” Allen couldn’t help it again.
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Cao Shurui immediately began to think of a solution. Suddenly, he saw a nearby open-air shop selling wheat porridge.
—Speaking of, this should be eaten in the morning. It’s already past noon now.
“Two, do you want to have porridge?”
Cao Shurui stood between the two war girls who were staring at each other and spoke.
“Well, yeah. Since you said that.”
Knowing that there would be no quarreling, Alan puffed up his cheeks like a child, but after thinking about his hungry stomach, he smiled again and nodded. Lyudmila looked at Alan with an unhappy expression, and said in an unhappy tone: “I don’t need it. Zhan Ji actually wants to eat in the open-air shop…even if you are hungry.”
Speaking of this, Lyudmila’s stomach screamed. Although the voice was very small, Cao Shurui, Tagler, Allen, and Lim all heard it.
Lim looked away and pretended not to hear, but Allen’s shoulders trembled slightly, and the corners of his mouth were also hung up, looking down at Lyudmila with an expression of unbearable smile.
“That’s it. Lord Zhanji Liudmila, who has high self-esteem, doesn’t eat wheat porridge in an open-air shop.”
Allen turned around leisurely and quickly walked towards the open-air shop. She paid a few copper coins, filled a bowl full of porridge in a wooden bowl, and walked back at a leisurely pace.
