The Wizard’s Fairy Tale

"Da da da da da da..."

The rapid and dense sound of horseshoes sounded.

I saw a man wearing an iron helmet, wearing bright armor all over his body, with an exquisite long sword pinned to his waist, and a riding whip in his hand, riding a tall brown horse on the road leading to the small village of Nisai. On the dirt road, gallop all the way!

The horse was very fast, and it didn't take long for this fully armed man to ride to the wooden fence in front of the small village of Nisai!

Not only did the man not stop or slow down, but he slapped his horse's butt and rushed into the small village of Nisai at a faster speed.

Weird! This is the first feeling of the armed man after entering.

Not a single person was there.

empty.

What about people? Where did they all go?

Moreover, the scene of the village in front of him was very different from the scene he had seen before.

But the problem is, this armed man can't tell the difference!

The thatched house seems to have remained unchanged, and the road conditions are similar to before. Even the big gravel next to the village entrance has been there for so many years.

It doesn't seem to have changed at all, it's still shabby, it's still dingy... wait, filthy?

A flash of lightning flashed through the armed man's mind, and he finally remembered what was wrong!

The small village of Nisai has become clean!

When he came to Nisai Village last year, he could smell the disgusting smell of human and animal excrement mixed in the village from a distance. All kinds of dried or fresh excrement can be seen everywhere.

But now it's all gone, the disgusting smell is gone, and the disgusting feces are gone.

It's a miracle! How did Nisai village do it? Even the city of Patras can't do this! The armed man's naked gaze was full of surprises.

Also, there seems to be a lot less weeds in the village.

The perception of the whole village has improved a lot at once.

If it weren't for the low and dilapidated thatched houses, the armed man would have thought he had gone to the country manor of some great noble lord.

The only question is, what about people?

The armed man's eyes became more and more dignified, he clenched his whip tightly in his hand, and steered the big horse under his crotch slowly towards the village.

If the armed man remembers correctly, there is a poor-quality earthen house in the center of the village.

That was the place where Nise Village used to discuss matters.

Turning a corner ahead, it suddenly opened up in front of him, and at the end was the earthen house in his impression.

Most importantly, he finally met people.

The armed man saw a man!

A thin boy in ragged clothes was carrying a basket in both hands, and was struggling towards the earthen house.

He looked very strenuous, his forehead was covered with hot sweat, and his face was black and red. After walking a few steps, he had to stop and take a rest.

But his expression was excited, and his eyes were full of joy.

The armed man's eyes fell on the thin boy's basket, and found that it was covered with black and yellow solidified lumps.

stool!

The armed man suddenly understood, why did the village become clean?

It's because someone is collecting!

strangeness! These untouchables are not lazy on weekdays, and they would take some time to do some things, and they would definitely not do what they could not do.

How did you become so active? Still collecting feces? Still using baskets to collect feces?

These untouchables whose eyes only look at their own nostrils are willing to use baskets to hold excrement?

Questions arose in the armed man's mind.

He suddenly wanted to see the boy Baron!

There is no doubt that all these changes occurred after he came!

So how did he do it?

"drive!"

With this question in mind, the armed man slapped the horse's buttocks.

"hiss!"

With a long neigh, the brown horse sped up, and ran in front of the thin boy with a "da da da".

"Untouchable! Stop!" the armed man shouted loudly.

The tall horse, fully armed, frightened the thin boy. With a shake of his hand, the basket of excrement fell to the ground, and part of the excrement was shaken out of the basket and fell on the ground beside him.

Seeing this scene, panic appeared in the thin boy's eyes.

However, the armed man did not notice this.

"My lord, what can I do for you?" The panic flashed in his eyes, and the thin boy quickly asked respectfully.

"Untouchable, tell me, where is Baron Dikas?" the armed man asked roughly.

"Baron Dikas? You mean our lord! He is..." When he said this, the thin boy suddenly thought of something, and stopped and didn't speak!

The armed man was obviously not in a good temper, he cursed in an angry voice, "Why didn't you say it? Where's Baron Dikas?"

The thin boy looked at the basket under his feet, hesitated for a moment, and then asked cautiously, "My lord, may I ask your honorific title?"

"You humble pariah, you don't deserve to hear my name!" The armed man refused without hesitation with a look of disgust in his eyes!

"Then my lord, please forgive me, I can't take you to meet our lord!" The thin boy summoned up his courage and said loudly on purpose.

The armed man didn't expect that an ordinary poor man would dare to speak to him like this, so his anger rose, he swung the whip in his hand, and hit the boy hard, "You bitch who grew up in a mud ditch, how dare you ..."

There was only a "huh", and the whip came down with the sound of the wind, and it was about to hit the thin boy in the blink of an eye.

If he was hit on the boy, it probably wouldn't be a bloodstain. In severe cases, he might even die on the spot.

The thin boy was so frightened that he closed his eyes in despair, and the images of his parents and younger brother flashed through his mind.

"Farewell!" said the thin boy sadly in his heart.

A gust of wind suddenly swept over him, and at the same time there was a slight sound, "Hey."

The skinny boy couldn't wait for the expected whip to arrive. He was surprised. He opened his eyes and saw a thick figure standing in front of him, holding the tail of the whip in his hand, competing with the armed knight on the horse. !

The two looked evenly matched.

Although it was only from the back, the thin boy recognized his identity at a glance.

"Lord Baron!" The skinny boy exclaimed excitedly.

There is nothing more satisfying than surviving a catastrophe.

Yes, it was William who helped the skinny boy grab the whip.

As soon as the armed man stepped into the small village of Nisai, he was detected by the magic mirror that was always on, and notified William, who was practicing the knight training method.

William thought it was the killer sent by the Scarlet Hand, so he never came out and observed in secret.

It wasn't until the skinny boy who refused to reveal his location was about to be beaten to death by armed men that William showed up and rescued the skinny boy!

Hearing the thin boy's cheers, William's expression remained unmoved, but the armed man on horseback moved his eyes slightly.

"Are you Baron Dickas?" asked the armed man.

"Hmm!" William nodded with a sullen face.

"It's all just a misunderstanding, Baron Dikas! I am a knight under Viscount Grian. My name is West, Knight West!" The armed man said, showing kindness and strength in his hands. decrease.

Of course, he didn't let go of all his strength immediately. In this way, good intentions turned into malice!

In any case, William is always a legitimate baron of the Duchy of Fadil!

"A man from Viscount Glenn? Not a killer?" William frowned slightly, felt the change in the strength in his hand, and reduced the strength accordingly, and then let go of the whip tail.

The whip was taken back by the armed man, the so-called West Knight.

"Knight West, Lord Viscount Grian sent you here, what's your business?" William's tone couldn't be more pleasant!

That's right, he whipped his own people at will if he didn't agree with each other, he really thought William was blind!

The armed man West Knight pulled up his mask, revealing a rough and somewhat handsome Chinese character face.

"Lord Baron Dikas, Lord Viscount Grian would like to invite you to the noble dinner tomorrow night, please be sure to attend!"

Knight West said it was an invitation in name, but his tone carried a tone of command.

You should know that although the title of viscount is higher than that of baron, the relationship between the two is not directly subordinate to the lord and vassal.

In a sense, the two are equal.

And this so-called West knight spoke to William in such a tone, did he decide what William meant?

What's more, from the beginning to the end, Knight West was sitting on horseback, speaking to William from above, with a condescending look!

William's face darkened, is this an insult?

"Lord Baron, this is an invitation card! Accept it, so that I can reply to Lord Viscount." West took out an invitation made of parchment without knowing where it was, on which William saw a complicated coat of arms .

If William remembered correctly, it should be the coat of arms of the Kerrien family that Old John reminded him of.

Depending on the situation, it is indeed an invitation from Viscount Grian.

It's just that this attitude...

"Even if Viscount Grian wanted to invite our lord baron to a banquet, it wasn't the way you invited him, right? He didn't even get off his horse. Is this the courtesy we should have when facing a nobleman? Mr. Knight !" Old John's voice came from William's back, accusing West Knight while running.

He had just returned from the dung-filled pothole at the back of the village, when he heard West's voice from a distance, he ran over in a panic!
