Shaman from Afar

Vol 2 Chapter 5: Shenlinbao (Part 1)

From the tower to the deep forest for only half a day. After a long day of rest, the group finally saw the border fortress in the evening.

The deep forest castle on the border is completely a territory surrounded by ancient trees and hills in the distance-connected to the ancient wood forest to the west, looking from the wilderness road to the distance, and the dazzling river flowing through the wilderness. , One after another large and small farms and orchards into a piece.

Because it has entered the winter, the surroundings look a bit desolate and depressed, but there is also a little more magnificence of the winter. The deep forest is located on a hill in this land. The main castle surrounded by the gray city wall and the towering minaret are flying the heraldic flag of the Frid family.

This is actually not surprising. As long as Loren and Lu Wen arrived in the tower, the baron had sent someone to Shenlinbao-this was also to prepare the other party so that they would not be caught by surprise, Do all the measures to welcome the count.

After all, Shenlinbao was originally the territory of the Sena family. Even if the earl is already Ruwin Fried, he still has to take into account the face of the other, and he cannot embarrass the people of the two families.

But regarding the Earl of Shenlinbao, from the mouths of Ruwen and Sir Aaron, Loren also got more interesting information-in the wilderness west of Shenlinbao, not only ogres, monsters, and goblins flowed The mutant monsters, the dense jungles, are also the territory of the elves.

And in the ancient wood forest on the border of Earl's Collar, there is a relatively large elves living there all the year round-for this race, humans are not their natural enemies, what really threatens them is actually entrenched in the forest. In the ogre.

It is for this reason that the elven settlement of the ancient wood forest has become the "defense line" west of the deep forest. In exchange, they will have caravans here to trade goods, exchange iron and pottery with amber and fur.

Of course, for this race that I have only heard of but never seen, Loren can't possibly not be curious. But now that it's winter, the caravans of the elves have long left here, so I'm afraid it will not be seen until the next year.

The heavy city gate was pushed open, and the nobles of the entire Earl's court waited early in the castle. In addition, there are many local villagers who are also excited to gather near the city gate and want to see what the new earl looks like.

Although the Sena family in the Deep Forest and the Frid family in the entire Principality of Lotel are always hostile, for these villagers, they do not know what deep hatred between these noble masters and the contradictions between these nobles. For them, it is too far away.

Not to mention that Ruwin Fried is also the heir to the Duke, that is, the future ruler of the entire Duke. Can such an adult become their earl, in the eyes of these ordinary people in Deep Limburg is still quite a matter of face.

The young earl, wearing bright armor and bright red cloak, rode the war horse and passed through the gates of the deep forest castle surrounded by knights.

"Please allow me to represent the Seine family of Shenlinbao and all the nobles, and welcome you, Count Ruben Friede!"

Spearheaded an elderly man whose hair had been shed and his face was full of beards, and stood respectfully in front of Lu Wen ’s horse on crutches: “Under Barry Sena, your mother Maria ...”

"I know that when the mother talked about her father's death, it was you who brought you up!" The young count with a smile on his face immediately turned and dismounted, and quickly took the other hand: "Mr. Barry Senna ... Oh, should I call you "grandpa"? "

"That's my honor!" The old man's face was filled with smiles: "To welcome you, we have replaced all the flags with your family's coat of arms, and we have prepared the lord's bedroom for you, if You do n’t like the display inside, we can change it at any time. "

"You are so polite, let's keep everything simple." Lu Wen waved carelessly: "Don't make it too troublesome, otherwise I will be very uncomfortable!"

"We prepared a banquet for you and the gentlemen." The old man seemed to not hear what he said, still squinting and laughing: "All the nobles of the entire count have come, and I hope you can appreciate your face. "

"That is of course, please tell everyone to be more casual, I am not a person of much rule." As he said, Lu Wen walked in with himself, leaving Loren and the knights, greeted by several servants Next, they also walked into the castle.

When passing by the old man, Loren clearly noticed a bit of sarcasm from the other person's face, but it was better to cover it up.

Obviously, these people of the Senna family are not exactly as they showed, and they are very obedient to Ruben Freed ’s taking the title of Earl.

The banquet was arranged in the hall of the castle. A whole roasted meat was "zizi" on the burning hot fireplace. A dozen middle-aged people dressed in luxury were sitting around the long table, both excited He looked nervously at the young earl sitting at the front.

The servants served a plate full of food on the table, stewed pork and onions, decorated with Shanzhen's bread and a variety of game, colorful berries, just look very attractive people.

There is no appetite for those present, either pretending to be calm while holding a wine glass, or looking around restlessly, not even looking at the delicious food on the table.

"Please all of you, thank you Holy Cross for giving us such a rich food!" Lu Wen stood up with a bright smile on his face, and first raised his glass: "Long live the Deep Forest Castle, long live the Principality of Lotel--! "

"Long live the Deep Forest Castle, long live the Principality of Lothal-!!!!!!"

No matter whether it is genuine or not, all the nobles present took up their glasses and greeted them with a grudging or sincere smile on their faces.

After drinking the first glass of wine, the young earl put the glass down and knocked on the glass. The aristocrats who were so enlightened calmed down and waited for his next speech.

"As you know, although my mother was born here, I did come to Shenlinbao for the first time. Many people and things are relatively new, so I am more curious." Lu Wen spread his hands: "For example ... … Who is responsible for the army and defense of Shenlinbao? "

"It's Baron Puck!" The old man named Barry Senna quickly stood up and warmly introduced Lu Wen: "He has been the military director of Shenlinbao for fifteen years, and he has always been faithful."

A fat man who looked very enthusiastic stood up from his seat ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Humorously bent down, showing a somewhat flattering smile towards Lu Wen.

"Is it already fifteen years?" Lu Wen smiled: "It's a little too long. From tomorrow on, let Baron Puck take more rest. Don't worry about these troubles!"

"Ah?" The smile on the fat man's face suddenly solidified, and his lips twitched like sausage: "You, shouldn't you just say ..."

"I didn't hear it clearly? Then I will say it again." The count's expression immediately froze: "From now on, as the count of Shenlinbao, I will withdraw all the duties of Baron Puck in Shenlinbao. Sir Lun is the new military director! "

"Why ?!" The sweaty fat man shouted directly, the fat on and off the body trembling: "I have always been faithful to the two families of Frid and Senna, and have never done anything wrong! "

"Why do you dare to ask why?" Lu Wen sneered: "On my way, there were more than a dozen ogres crossing the defense of Shenlinbao and rushing into the hinterland of the duke- If it was n’t the person behind me, you would only see my body now. Drag this scumbag **** out, and I do n’t want to see him again! ”

Two knights stepped forward, and Baron Puck, who was about to become a dehydrated fat pig, walked straight from his chair and left the hall.

The nobles at the banquet no longer saw a little smile on their faces, sitting in their positions tremblingly and daring not to move. Even Barry Senna, who once mocked Ruben, stood stiffly under the threat of the knights around him, the teeth of the aging face trembling.

Lorren, who was standing behind the count, watched silently, as if enjoying a wonderful drama, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.
