Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

Chapter 138 Urgent report!

Nate is the stationmaster of the Versailles family station. This is definitely a lucrative position for the Versailles family. When distributing supplies to the slaves here, they can deduct a little. When collecting food, You can also add a little more. Usually, there are one or two horses here that run faster, such as wind chasing horses or flame ponies, to deliver messages. Of course, the food these horses are fed cannot be the same as ordinary scale horses. Compared with wildebeest, they need to eat some relatively refined feed, and these feeds are also distributed by the family. Nate and the others can also deduct part of these feeds.

This kind of thing is very common in the inn on the Ika Plain. It is almost an open secret. The family also turns a blind eye to this kind of thing. In the eyes of those in the family, it is a perennial Guarding at the inn is also a chore.

However, the Versailles family also has a bottom line for these inns. It is okay to let them be greedy, but they must ensure the normal operation of the inn. The slaves who distribute supplies through their hands every year cannot die too many, otherwise the family will be reborn. punish them.

It is precisely because of this that working as an errand in the inn is a hard job, but it is also a good job. After working in the inn for a few years, you can return to Casa City to retire.

When Nate was not old enough, he was the nephew of a foreign affairs steward in the Versailles family. His cultivation talent was not good, so his uncle arranged for him to work at the inn so that he could earn more gold coins and benefit in the future. You can go home and retire comfortably.

Although he can't go back to Casa City often and can only stay at this inn every day, his little life is very comfortable. He is an easily contented person. He knows that he can't practice well, and he doesn't have the ability to practice. I just want to work here for a few more years so that I can comfortably retire at home.

Nate couldn't help but smile when he thought of his home. His home was in Casa City. Six years ago, he and his wife lived in this inn. But then they had children. For the sake of their children's education, He sent his child and wife to Casa City. Now his child is studying at the Magic Academy in Casa City, and his grades are still wrong. Although he is not talented enough to become a magician, he is in good health and is a good warrior. material.

Thinking of his naughty son, Nate became even more happy. He hummed a tune and walked out of the room. He ran to the kitchen and took out a pot of wine and two side dishes, and then said loudly: " Garson, Carlo, come on, let me have a drink with my brother."

Garson and Carlo are Nate's deputies. They are also related to some upper-level figures in the Versailles family, so they were assigned here. The relationship between the three of them is pretty good.

At this moment, a sudden sound of horse hoofbeats came. Nate couldn't help but was stunned. He stopped and listened carefully. He found that the sound of horse hoofbeats was not coming from the direction of the Versailles family's old castle, Bull Run. , but came from inside the Ika Plain.

Nate's expression changed. He was not afraid of the sound of horse hooves coming from Bull Run. Those were either the family coming to give them orders or to distribute supplies to them. What he was most afraid of was the sound of hooves coming from the Ika Plain. The sound means that something happened in the Ika Plain.

The Ika Plain is very valued by the family. No matter what happens here, the family must be informed as soon as possible. This is the family rule of the Versailles family.

Nate threw the wine bottle in his hand and shouted to the two men who had just left the house: "Quick, get the flame horse ready, something may have happened in Ika Plains."

When Garson and Carlo heard what Nate said, they were stunned for a moment, and then immediately went to prepare. They also knew that Nate had been working here in the Ika Plain for almost eight years. In these eight years, although Nate has not been promoted, but he is too familiar with everything here in Ika Plains, and it is not wrong to listen to him.

Just as the two were loading the saddle on the flame horse, Nate had already ran outside the door. Looking at the approaching scaly wildebeest in the distance, it could be seen that the man on the horse was still beating the horse desperately. , which made Nate's heart sink. He knew that the more this happened, the more difficult it was.

Soon a horse ran to the door of the inn. The man on the horse jumped off the horse. Nate immediately went up to him and said, "Tyne, what happened?"

Tyne said with a pale face: "Lord Nate, it's bad, there is an insect plague in my area. It's so big that you can't see the end of it. It's like a family report. Otherwise, this year's food will be gone."

Nate's head was buzzing, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He took two deep breaths, and then said: "Xiang, please tell me more carefully, how could an insect plague suddenly occur?"

Tyne said with a pale face: "I don't know. It was fine yesterday. When I woke up this morning, I found a big white bug that had eaten a lot of wheat. There are a lot of these bugs. If they can't be eliminated as soon as possible, there will be consequences. It’s unimaginable. If possible, I hope the family can send a magician.”

Hearing what Tyne said, Nate was even more surprised. He knew very well that there were several types of alarms in the family. The lowest level would only send a few warriors to deal with it, and the middle level would usually send some troops. , the number will not exceed a thousand people, high-level ones will have to ask magicians to take action, and at the same time, they will send an army of more than a thousand people.

Now that Tyne said this, he asked the family to send more than a thousand troops and magicians to solve the trouble here. Nate looked at Tyne and said: "Tyne, do you know what you are talking about? It's really serious. Is it to that extent?"

Tyne smiled bitterly and said: "Master Nate, don't you know that I, Tyne, are doing things? It's more serious than you think. I think it's best for the family to handle it as a strategic crisis."

Nate stopped talking. Tyne used to be a soldier of the family. Later, because he was injured and could no longer fight, he was sent here to be an overseer. But it is precisely because he was a soldier that he was very good at doing things. Reliable, and after going through the war, he knew better than Nate what a strategic crisis meant, so when he heard him say this, Nate knew that the matter was really serious.

Nate turned to Tyne and said, "Okay, I'll go to Bullrunning Castle right away to deliver the message, and you'll go back right away to organize people to exterminate the pests." Tyne responded, turned around, jumped on the scaly wildebeest, and returned the same way.

At this time, Garson and Carlo also prepared the flame horses. They prepared three horses in total. Nate turned to the two of them and said: "Immediately send letters to all the surrounding inns and ask them to notify the villages below to pay attention to the insect infestation." Please pay attention to the pest control, I will go to Bullrunning Castle to deliver the message." The two of them responded, got on their horses together with Nate, and ran away separately.

It takes two days to get from Nate and the others to Bull Run by horse. But if you really encounter an emergency, you can change horses without changing people and rush all the way to Bull Run. In this way, only one day is enough. .

Now Nate was in a hurry, so he changed horses all the way to Bull Run.

Bullrunning Castle is the old castle of the Versailles family. Three elders of the family have been sitting here for many years. There are also 5,000 Bullrunning guards, at least 100 dead soldiers, and 50 magicians. It has been stationed for many years, and there are a large number of family members and servants, which can be regarded as the foundation of the Versailles family.

The entire outer wall of Benniu Fort is two thousand meters long, five meters thick, and fifteen meters high. It is made of rammed soil. Grass is added to the soil, tamped a layer, and topped with a layer of rice slurry. It is very strong.

Running Bull Castle is still very lively, but it is not a major transportation thoroughfare. Only some merchants from the Principality of Versailles will set up shops here, and the Versailles family is also very strict about this place, and most people don't know the basics. Businessmen, they're not going to prepare them to set up shop here.

Nowadays, there are about 50,000 people living in the entire Bullrunning Castle. Some of them live in the castle. Most of them are people who have some relationship with the Versailles family. Most of the remaining people live outside the castle. of.

Of the five thousand Bullrunning Guards, two thousand are stationed in the castle, and the remaining three thousand are stationed in the military camp outside the castle. The castle and the military camp form an horn, echoing each other from afar.

On this day, it was the same as before in the castle. The gate of the castle was opened in the morning, and everyone was doing business and busy with other things. It was very lively. Everything seemed so normal on this day, until the sky gradually darkened. When it got dark, a melodious bell rang from the castle. People living here knew that it meant that the castle was about to close.

At this moment, a burst of rapid horse hoofbeats came from the depths of the Ika Plain. This burst of horse hoofbeats was so rapid, like raindrops, that people couldn't help but turn their heads and look.

After a while, I saw a flaming horse running from a distance, shouting loudly as it ran: "Urgent report! Urgent report! Don't close the door!"

The people living in the castle, except for some businessmen, are usually the staff of the castle, or the family members of the Bull Guard, and many are branches of the Versailles family. Naturally, they know what the emergency report means. , the city gate that was slowly closing immediately stopped. Not only did it not close, but it slowly opened.

After a while, the horse ran to the gate of the castle. Immediately, two bull guards wearing horn helmets and iron armor came up to meet them. The man did not stop, but just shouted: "Urgent report, urgent report, get out of the way." .”

Generally speaking, urgent reports will stop in front of the castle gate. Only extremely urgent matters will go directly through the door and go straight to the inner castle. When the Bull Run guard in front of the gate heard this shouting, he did not dare to stop him and went to the side. He gave in and dodged away.

The person coming was none other than Nate. He knew that the insect infestation was an urgent matter, so he didn't care so much and walked directly through the door and headed straight for the inner fort.

When pedestrians on the street saw this gesture, no one dared to stop him. After a while, Nate had arrived at the gate of the inner castle. Nate, who was exhausted after a day of riding and had lost feeling on his feet, rolled off his horse. The warrior guarding the gate of the inner city immediately ran over and helped Nate up.
