Lord Highlander

Chapter 1093: 1079. Old Sheila's Wish

Under the night, the moonlight shines on the green wheat fields, on the pond stalks beside the fields, on the roof ridges of the whole Wall village, and on the sparkling stream.

In the summer night, the wheat field played a pleasant symphony, frogs chirping, cicadas chirping, owls cooing...

Old Sheila was on crutches, and she stepped on the ridge of the field, walking very slowly.

She refused Suldak's support, and walked forward silently. Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was somewhat dull.

Suldak followed the old Sheila, and he was even a little worried. The old Sheila accidentally fell on a stalk in the wheat field. Today was Rita's wedding night, and he didn't want anything to happen.

But I can't persuade old Sheila... I can only let her walk downstream along the field ridge by the stream.

The rainy season has come to Wall Village, and the narrow road on the ridge is not easy to walk at all. Although the old Sheila is a little staggering, she is very stable.

Suldak could still recall the worried eyes of Rita and Natasha when they walked out of the gate of the villa. She was too old, and no matter where she went, she was a little uneasy.

Suldak felt that he should use the holy light technique to help old Sheila recuperate her body, but he only came back once every two months, so this recuperation would not have much effect at all.

Looking at her from the back, she was so thin that she didn't have much fat, and she even had a hunched back. She lay on her shoulders by the fireplace every day, and she could see the reluctance in her eyes for little Peter.

Under the moonlight, the field ridges are not too difficult to walk, but you need to be careful not to slip into the ditch.

Standing in the wheat field here, you can still hear the beautiful music coming from the central square of Wall Village.

There is even a smell of barbecue in the wind, which is a little different today. Even if people from other villages are brave enough to dance and eat and drink in the central square of the village, no one will stop them, but this kind of good thing is only limited to today. Night.

Old Sheila stopped on a wheat field by the stream. This is a small wheat field. It is estimated that the area is less than 100 square meters. The wheat is growing well. The wheat in the wheat field is almost waist high. Even at night, it is still green here. .

These wheat fields are not planted with winter wheat, and the wheat harvest season is around the Harvest Festival.

Old Sheila was sitting next to a mound of earth, on which some green grass grew. She pulled out a few weeds from the mound with her withered hands and became panting.

Then she gave up the idea of ​​pulling weeds, and put her hand on the wooden plank standing among the weeds in front of the mound.

There was a touch of sadness in her cloudy eyes.

Nothing was written on the wooden board, and old Sheila fiddled with the fur on the mound of soil with her hands, sighed and said: "They are all buried here, and I won't live long. When I die, I will bury me here." Here, I want to lie down with them, can I?"

"Okay." Suldak said briefly.

Under the moonlight, old Sheila raised her cloudy eyes and asked him, "Dark, you will take care of Natasha, little Peter and Rita, right?"

"I will!" Surdak nodded.

Old Sheila lowered her eyelids, nodded slightly and said:

"I'll take this secret to my grave and I swear Natasha and Rita won't tell it either."

"You can live the life you want with peace of mind."

"If you can, be nice to Natasha, and help me watch Peter, he adores you now."

"But I don't want him to be a hero. If I can choose, I hope his life can be a bit more ordinary and find a girl who loves him..."

After the old Sheila finished speaking, her eyes fell on the mound of dirt, and she didn't leave.

Suldak hesitated for a moment before saying:

"If you think enlightenment in swordsmanship will bring danger to his future life, I can let him try enlightenment in magic, but magic requires talent."

Old Sheila shook her head and said, "Let him do what he wants, now you are a great hero in his heart, and you don't even know how hard he practiced sword every day."

Suldak nodded and agreed: "Okay."

Old Sheila leaned on a cane, stood up tremblingly, and said to Suldak: "I'm tired, help me go back."

This may be the first time that old Sheila asked Suldak to help him. Hearing what old Sheila said, Suldak suddenly felt a lot easier...

Helping old Sheila back to the villa, Charlie and Luke were already waiting at the door.

Suldak asked Natasha to help old Sheila to rest, and he brought Charlie and Luke into a living room.

The three chatted for a long time before Charlie and Luke left the villa...

Natasha was sitting in front of the dressing table in the bedroom, wearing a thin pajamas, staring blankly at herself in the mirror, her face seemed to be more delicate than when she was twenty years old, she reached out and touched her cheek, Looking at his hands again, the cracks on his hands had disappeared, and the cocoons had quietly disappeared, and now he would be out of breath even if he carried a few buckets of water.

Her fingers ran along the straight bridge of the nose, across the plump lips, and touched the pointed chin.

Suldak came from behind. He was wearing a comfortable pajamas. After taking a bath, he felt that his skin was breathing. He reached out and pressed her round shoulders, and leaned down to kiss her.

Natasha raised her head high and responded enthusiastically.

...

Marquis Luther, on behalf of the military, arrived in Mucuso City in mid-July to inspect the urban reconstruction after the war. The officials accompanying Marquis Luther were the governor of Ruyt City, Count Clay Cushing, and Ruy Accompanied by a group of officials from Techeng.

The temporary residence of the delegation is located in the mansion of the McDonnell family in Ruyt City.

Marquis Luther just inspected Mukuso City, and then summoned the nobles in Mukuso City who were more supportive of Suldak, and revealed to them that the purpose of this trip was to ask Suldak In late July, he will go to Bena City to receive an honor, and then Suldak will be officially appointed as the governor of Mukuso City.

Hearing this news, the officials of Mukuso City Hall were completely relieved.

They have worked hard for a while to get Suldak's approval. Of course, the prerequisite for all this is that Suldak can become the governor of Mukuso City.

Marquis Luther made a special trip from Bena City to confirm this matter...

Another purpose of the Marquis Luther's visit this time is to let Suldak and the governor of Ruyt City, Count Clay Cushing, get to know each other in private.

Earl Clay Cushing is a close friend of the Marquis Luther, but now he is an old man in his sixties with white hair in his sixties. As the consul of Ruyt City, he has some basic physical and mental strength, but He is still occupying the position of consul in Ruyt City, and he is guarding the city for Marquis Luther.

And Suldak is the successor of the governor of Ruyt City appointed by Marquis Luther...

The third purpose of Marquis Luther's coming to the Ganbu plane was to bring the heavy armored infantry regiment formed by Suldak back to the city of Bena, and by the way, also bring back the prisoners of Lord McDonnell's army.

This matter is also a promise made by Marquis Luther and the military department. The military department provides funds for the establishment of infantry regiments. After the Ganbu plane is recovered in the future, Suldak will return the 20,000 heavy armored infantry to the military department. .

If the 20,000 heavy armored infantry were to be transferred from the Ganbu plane, the garrison on the Ganbu plane would be short of a large part.

Although every small town in the south has now formed a security team, there is still a lack of garrisons that can be mobilized anytime and anywhere, so Suldak had to recruit troops from the Autonomous Region of the Resistance Army. This time, the opposition from the Resistance Army was much smaller. The matter of recruiting new troops is personally in charge of by Sheldon, secretary-general of the round table.

In fact, this matter is easier than imagined. Now that the Ganbu plane has re-established political power, many young people do not want to live a semi-reclusive life in the depths of the rainforest.

They had heard before that the companions who went out made a lot of money, and many of them regretted not joining the heavy armored infantry regiment.

Now that I have such an opportunity, I certainly won't give up easily...
