Lord of Riding and Slashing

The architectural style of Yuanshanzhai is very close to nature. The houses and streets are built on tall trees. If it weren't for the mountain people who came and went, all of them were unclothed and could not afford to eat, Nord thought he was here. The fairy tree city.

However, the mountain people of Yuanshanzhai are not the same as the group of elegant elves that Nord knew about in his previous life. Natural and beautiful. This is Nord's first impression of the construction style of Yuanshanzhai. It is hard and poor. This is what Nord sees the Yuanshanzhai mountain. After Min's second impression, Nord thought in his heart that people living in such a beautiful cottage should not lead such a barren life.

After Nord walked into the cottage, the mountain people passing by would cast curious eyes, but after seeing the leader Benny and Harry, they did not stop and watch, although everyone seemed particularly powerless. Looks like, but he walked hurriedly towards the outside of the cottage.

Nord has been observing the situation in the remote cottage along the way. It is a little different from what Nord imagined. The cottage seems to be full of despair. Everyone is lifeless. Even the most energetic children are sitting at the door in a daze. , A thin body and a look of malnutrition, it looks a bit distressing.

　　 "Harry, has anything major happened to your copycat recently? Why is everyone in a hurry."

　　 Harry had a wry smile on his face when he heard the words, and looked at the yellow and thin mountain people around him, his tone of sadness revealed.

　　 "Master Nord, at this time of the year, the food reserves in the village are not enough to eat, so every household must go into the mountains and forests every day to find food, not as good as today's rations are gone."

　　Nod’s face is incomprehensible. There is a famine at this time of the year. Why don’t you want to solve this problem?

　　 "I remember you said that Shanzhai has been collecting wild fruits for a living, why not try to grow some crops to get through the difficulties?"

　　 There was an embarrassed expression on Harry's face, and his tone was much smaller. Hearing Nord's questioning, Harry didn't know how to answer.

"We...we didn't expect to have yam as a food. There were wild fruits in the mountains and forests that could not be eaten. But once the frost and cold seasons, most of the wild fruits rot, and we have nothing to do... We can only go to the mountains and forests. Hunting to try your luck..."

Harry's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally lost his voice. During this period of time, I talked to the hunters in Tammy Village and learned that the condition of Tammy Village was not much better than the remote cottage, although there is a hundred acres of farmland. In the two seasons of frost and cold, people will also starve to death, but since Lord Nord came and found food like yam, the villagers are full of hope to tide over the difficulties this year.

　　Although Nord’s questioning made Harry a bit ashamed, Harry felt a little bit more happy when he thought that the remote cottage would be like Tammy Village this year, through the cold season with buried yams.

Seeing Harry who was speechless, Nord did not know what to say. Nord understood that this is not a question that Harry can answer alone. It is the common responsibility of every mountain in the cottage, and there is no sense of danger in times of peace. Without the courage to try boldly, it's no wonder that you have to endure this kind of suffering every year. Nord remembered the words of Mr. Lu Xun in his previous life, "We regret our misfortune, and we can't fight with anger."

　　 With Harry's silence, everyone gradually accelerated their pace and arrived at Benny's house in a short while.

It turned out that after Harry introduced Nord to know that not only was Benny’s grandfather the wisest old man in Yuanshanzhai, Benny’s father was also the leader of the hunting right in the village. Yuanshanzhai does not have the position of village chief like Tammy Village. Everyone discusses everything together. Benny's father and grandfather are basically the most prestigious people in Yuanshanzhai.

There are two big trees in Benny’s home. The big tree is surrounded by two people. It looks a little magnificent. The wooden house is built between the two big trees. The branches, it seems that people can walk on them.

　　 When they arrived outside Benny's house, Nord and the others did not go in, but asked Benny to invite his grandfather out. It was not convenient for so many people to enter Benny's house.

Nord did not wait long, and an old man with gray hair walked out of the house. The old man's face was wrinkled, and his cloudy eyes showed wise light. With a dark wooden stick in his hand, he slowly looked at the station. Nord and others outside the door.

　　 And Nord was also looking at the old man. No one spoke for a while. The old man saw the heraldic armor that Nord was wearing, and eventually he took the lead to speak.

　　 "The nobleman outside the mountain, I am Harun from Yuanshanzhai. Please explain your intentions."

Nord was a little surprised. Nord saw the sight of the remote cottage. He thought that even the most wise old man was just an older and well-informed person. As soon as Harlan spoke, Nord knew the old man in front of him. It's not as simple as imagined.

　　 "Hello, I am Nord Isaac, the Viscount of the Duchy of Bethe. My fief is on the outskirts of the Amon Mountains. I came to the remote cottage to find out about the situation of Isaac."

　　 "The Duchy of Beth..." A trace of confusion flashed in the eyes of Old Harlan, as if he had never heard the name of the Duchy of Beth.

　　 "Dear Viscount Nord, do you mean that Yuanshanzhai is your territory?"

　　 A gleam of light flashed in Harry's eyes, and he looked straight at Nord, as if he wanted to see Nord's inner thoughts clearly.

"No, I don’t know if Yuanshanzhai is within my territory, but this does not affect how I can bring changes to Yuanshanzhai~www.novelmt.com~Nord did not flinch and looked directly at Harlan’s. The eyes are full of confidence.

　　 "What kind of change!"

　　 Harlan saw the confidence in Nord's eyes, but he didn't completely let go of his guard against Nord, and his dark cane hit the ground and asked Nord again, and his eyes became sharper.

　　 "I found a kind of food that can solve the food crisis in the remote cottage. You may have heard that it is something called mountain lump, which can be eaten after it is cooked, and the output of this thing is very large."

　　Nord briefly told Harlan about the concept of yam, and there was a trace of doubt in Harlan's eyes.

　　 "Hump bumps? Isn't that poisonous?"

　　 "Of course, your grandson Benny can testify that he ate this kind of food last night, and I now change the name of this kind of food to yam, Dashan's panacea!"

　　 Harry looked at his grandson Benny, who nodded to Harlan, and whispered to Harlan how delicious the yam was last night.

　　 Hearing Benny’s confirmation, Harlan’s eyes towards Nord were a bit complicated, and finally stared at the coat of arms on Nord’s chest, slowly speaking:

　　 "Do you know what animal the coat of arms on your chest is?"

Nord looked down. The eagle with wings spread out. To tell the truth, Nord hadn’t studied it carefully before. Nord’s cheap father had never told Nord about the history of their family before. He just heard that they came from A branch that inherited the ancient family is now gone.

　　 "Isn't this an eagle?"

　　 Harlan looked at the sky, with an inexplicable look in his eyes.

　　 "This is not an ordinary eagle, it is the eagle of the Amon Mountains, a rebellious condor."
