My Wife Is Great Fief Lord

Chapter 15 Castle

“Big…sir, the villain has just gone to inspect the territory, and there is no immediate welcome to greet you, please forgive me!” Benny was very guilty, but he knew that the current situation Gervais didn’t know what he was doing, so although he was nervous, he was still a little calm on the surface, and said to Gervais in a respectful tone.

“Oh!” Gervais listened to his words, and gave a simple oh, with an unconvincing look, his face still grim, and said to them: “You lead the way, let’s go to the castle first!”

“Yes! fief lord!” The ten guards answered in unison.

After finishing speaking, the seven guards who had arrived earlier lowered their heads, peeked at Benny, saw that Benny had already taken the lead and walked towards the castle, and then the cowering followed behind.

Gervais followed them on horseback. Although it was slow, Gervais was not in a hurry.

Sitting on the horse and walking, Gervais looked around the town and only looked around outside. Walking on the main road in the town, he had a deeper understanding of the poverty of Binhai Town.

The trails on both sides of the main road are full of filthy and muddy dirt roads, and the wood house thatched awnings on the muddy dirt roads are also broken. Broken boards were nailed to the holes, and the walls of some houses were actually made of branches.

The only houses in the town made of stone are all beside the main road. Although the outside walls are also damaged and some stones have fallen off, they are the only houses in the town that can be seen. buildings of the past.

Before passing a few stone houses, Gervais looked inside specially, there should be a blacksmith shop, although it is a little dark inside, but Gervais can hear ding ding ding inside~ Yes The rhythmic percussion of iron, in this world where iron is also a scarce resource, can only be heard by a blacksmith shop.

As for the other two stone houses, when the Gervais people passed by, the doors and windows were closed, and the inside could not be seen.

Walk through the town and walk for another four or five minutes to the bottom of the castle, which is not the same as the castle in Gandalf. In comparison, the Viscount Fort Majoel is about four times larger than the Baron Fort in Gandalf, and it is also built on a hill 20 to 30 meters high. All around the mountain are steep rock walls, and the drop is the smallest. There are also more than 20 meters, only up ahead of the hill, there is a gentle slope more than ten meters wide leading to the gate of the castle.

Gervais looked at the towering castle in front of him, and it was hard to imagine how the orcs broke through this fortress-like castle.

It can be said that Viscount Marjore chose to build a castle here with great care.

Because this hill is surrounded by tens of meters of steep cliffs, the castle is built on it. When there is a war, as long as the ten-meter-wide passage up the mountain is guarded, the castle can be as stable as Mount Tai, this world has no explosives. If you want to start from the mountain, the threat to the castle is very small. If you want to capture the castle, you can only choose to attack from the narrow road up the mountain.

After a while, the entire group followed the passage up the mountain to the front of the castle.

Looking up at the castle, the scene at this moment is different from the one in the distance. In the distance, I only feel that the castle stands on the hill, which is quite spectacular.

But when you stand at the bottom of the castle and look up, the castle is like a giant covering the heavens, shielding the sun standing in front of you, which is very shocking. It is foreseeable that if there is an enemy to invade, when he When you reach the bottom of the castle, you can feel your own insignificance just by looking up, and your heart will retreat.

I don’t know how many years it took for this castle to be built. This is definitely a huge project. No wonder Viscount Marjore has the confidence to resist the orc invasion in the castle. Sitting on this castle, Gervais is now The bottom of my heart could not help but give birth to a kind of World Is Mine pride.

…

“Go, go in and see what the inside of my castle looks like!” Looking at the castle that belongs to him, Gervais overwhelmed by emotions, waiting for the castle After a rough look at the appearance, Gervais walked into the castle first, and

walked into the castle gate. It is a wide open space, similar to Gandalf’s castle, but the area of the open space is obviously much wider than Gandalf’s castle.

In the vestibule, because there have been no nobles living in it for more than 30 years, it looks desolate, although it can be seen that there must be someone to maintain it, but it can be seen everywhere Low weeds grow.

At the foot of the city wall on the left side of the vestibule, there is a row of wood houses, some clothes are drying outside the wood houses, and scattered garbage can be seen on the ground. Gervais is not surprised, this should be the house where these guards live.

Although the guards are stationed at the castle, they cannot live in the inner fort of the castle. The castle is the residence of the nobles in this world, and it is a symbol of the status of the nobles, even if the castle is gone for a period of time. true master.

But the soldiers who are in charge of the garrison can only move or live outside the inner fort. They are not allowed to enter the inner fort without special events. The vestibule is all their activities in the castle. .

Gervais didn’t plan to delve into the trash littered everywhere for the time being, and the guards were also very terrified when they saw their gazes stay there.

Gervais believes that from now on they won’t dare! Because the castle has a new owner, Gervais Baron.

squeak… squeak…

When Gervais entire group pushed open the heavy gate of the inner fort, the lock of the gate was a little rusted due to the fact that no one lived there all the year round. At the moment of the door, there was a sound of zhi zhi, like the dubbing of a thriller.

The heavy door was completely pushed open, but the inner castle was not as dusty as I imagined. It seems that someone cleaned it regularly. It gets dusty and spider web all over.

Although it’s not spotless now, it only needs a little cleaning to move in.

“Is this place being cleaned from time to time?” Gervais, who was standing at the gate, looked towards Benny. Benny had been leading the way just now, and he and a few guards pushed open the gate of the inner fort.

Although Gervais is now sure that Benny has a ghost in his heart and is definitely not a good thing, but he just arrived at the territory today and hasn’t checked in yet, so he doesn’t want to ask him immediately.

Wait until the room and board is settled today, and then slowly solve these little things tomorrow. They now have the power to kill and kill themselves. things, then Gervais will not be soft-hearted.

If one of them is really full of evil, he is also ready to use it to buy the hearts of the people in the territory. Although they were all serfs, the Gervais who came through the passage knew that these poor and oppressed serfs were the cornerstone of this world.

Although he doesn’t plan to be a savior, he won’t be a cold-blooded person who doesn’t care about the life and death of the people.

“Yes, fief lord, Winterfell has an order to let the serfs come to clean it once a month!” Benny replied immediately when he heard the question.

What Gervais didn’t know was that although Benny’s face was still normal at the moment, the panic in his heart was worse than before.

Because in addition to doing evil outside, he also did something in the castle that was unpardonable for the nobles.

For a year and a half, Benny held the highest authority in the territory.

Since the opening of Pandora’s Box this spring, Benny has become more reckless in doing things, and he wants to enjoy the life of aristocratic gentlemen.

So he moved out of the wood house at the foot of the city wall, and moved into a guest room in the inner castle that only nobles could live in. He also often visited Viscount Marjore’s study, and secretly took out some books. Castle, and assigned his cronies to secretly take it to other towns to sell for money.

The other seven guards in the castle are a thorn in his side. Because of these seven people, his actions may be leaked out. Fortunately, these seven people were recruited from serfs, and they used their families as threats and forced them to live in a guest room in the inner castle. Weeks, and told them that if this was leaked, they would definitely be hanged, whether persecuted or not.

This sentence, Benny did not deceive them, no matter right or wrong, they live in the inner castle privately, and the nobles know that they are only dead end.

After this matter was done, Benny could sit back and relax, and took two of his subordinates to live in the inner castle, sleeping on a bed that only nobles could sleep on.

After sleeping for a few days, Benny felt a little empty, and after thinking about it, the nobleman will hold a banquet in the castle. He couldn’t hold the banquet, the three of them could only drink in the castle, and it was better for the nobles to drink wine, but it needed money, so Benny opened the study room, and those who had been placed for more than 30 years without Man flipping through books idea.

The Viscount Marjore was also a veteran nobleman. His family inherited three generations, and there are countless treasures in the castle.

But since his death, some of those treasures have been damaged by the invasion of the orcs, and some of them have been preserved. Some of the remaining treasures were later cleaned up by the count, and the valuables were brought back. Rose Castle, only some useless books are left in the castle.

These ordinary books are useless to real nobles and can be purchased at any time. But for some freemen and even lords, these books can make their empty shelves compact, so that when visitors see the books, they can recognize their cultivation.

Books are also one of the most expensive items in this world. It takes a month of hard work for ordinary people to save enough money to buy the next book. And after Benny stole the books, they sold them at the original price one third. The money from the sale was exchanged for good wine for him to enjoy.

Benny originally thought that his aristocratic life would be enjoyed until he was transferred out of here, but accidents will never be lacking. There has been no place for nobles to come for 30 years, so he came today One, and a noble who has just become the new owner of this place.

Benny knew that he was doomed, because the room they stayed in had not been cleaned, and things might be revealed if they didn’t make it through tonight!

For evil outside the castle, the nobles may not kill them. But the three of them live in the inner fort, and they will definitely be sent to the gallows by Baron in front of them!

In fact, what Benny didn’t know was that the first of two things really killed him! As for the second one, if they didn’t do something nasty, Gervais could actually pretend it didn’t happen!
