Seeing the giant bear and giant lion remains in the basement of Mitchell's estate, Don Juan was also aroused of a desire to win.

Lieutenant Juan was obsessed with hunting, which saved Pierre a lot of trouble.

Lieutenant Juan brought twelve light cavalry, men and war horses, which put a heavier burden on the militia's already insufficient grain reserves.

Now Don Juan goes out to hunt before dawn every day and comes back at night. He is considered to be a disguised participation in production, which makes Pierre's sweat less on his forehead.

Until August 11, the second Sunday of August.

The Navare sisters can finally leave Mitchell Manor to relax.

Because the church in Wolf Town has been repaired, Father Kaman will resume weekly mass rituals, and attending the service is one of the only reasons why ladies should leave the manor at present.

Early in the morning, Ellen led everyone to drive the carriage to the center of the town.

As soon as she left Mitchell's estate, Catherine felt her breathing smoothly. She was like a cheerful bird, holding Mrs. Mitchell and her sister chatting and chatting.

The old believers of Wolf Town came, and people rushed from Dusa Village, Hedong Village and Hexi Village to watch the Mass.

This is the first time since the church was destroyed, so many people have gathered in the town center.

Everyone greeted each other happily, and the two deserted streets seemed very lively.

The church just erected four wooden walls and built a wooden shed, which was much simpler than the Wolf Town Church in the past.

But the people who came here were very proud because they also made efforts to rebuild the church.

Father Kaman visited every old church member in Wolf Town, convinced them to provide some food to fund the reconstruction of the church.

This is what Carman said to Winters, “I won’t let you work for nothing.”

The persuasion process is very similar to the process of selling "indulgences". Both use the benefits of death to persuade believers to make contributions when they are still alive.

No one wanted to be forced to collect food, but in order to rebuild the church, the old believers happily dug out the food buried in the cellar.

The food collected by Father Kaman greatly alleviated the militia's urgent needs.

What Revodan did not do, what Winters did not do, Kaman did.

Fortunately, Winters is not in Wolf Town at this time, otherwise he really doesn't know what harsh comments he would make.

The Wolf Town Church has changed a lot. Father Anthony is gone, and the gold and silver sacrificial vessels are gone, but Father Kaman is still there.

Under the auspices of Father Kaman, the ceremony was completed concisely and smoothly.

In the past, Father Anthony preached, but this time Father Kaman stood in front of the pulpit.

Kaman's sermon is simple. He encourages everyone not to give up hope, not to give up faith, and persevere, and will be saved.

Catherine, who was sitting in the front row of the church, was a little disappointed. She quietly asked Anna, "Is that all?"

Anna listened carefully, prayed silently, and ignored her sister.

Catherine looked around and her disappointment became stronger.

Compared with the majestic cathedral of sea blue, the magnificent temple, the exquisite stained glass windows and murals, the gorgeously dressed priests, and the grand and solemn Mass ceremony.

This small chapel in Wolf Town is so shabby, so shabby.

After the ceremony, the crowd gradually dispersed.

In the past, every Sunday was a small gathering in Wolf Town, and men had to line up to practice bows and arrows.

But no one has arranged these things now, and the officials in Montane are not there.

After receiving the communion, they talked for a while outside the church, and then went home.

"Let's go, Kate." Anna grabbed her sister's hand.

Katherine sighed: "I thought it would be fun to go to town, but it was meaningless."

"I thought of a fun game, suitable for ladies," Ellen smiled and pulled Catherine's arm: "Miss Navare, do you guys play cards?"

Anna and Catherine looked at each other and shook their heads hard: "Mom said dice and cards are the things that only the rude soldiers play, and Mom doesn't let us gamble."

A look of nostalgia appeared in Ellen's eyes, and she smiled and said, "It's not the case. My husband has taught some card rules suitable for ladies to play. Do you want to try it? And if we don't suppress chips, it's naturally not considered gambling."

"Okay, please teach us." Catherine immediately let go of her sister's hand and stuck it hard to Mrs. Mitchell's arm. The intimacy made Scarlett faintly feel a little jealous.

The ladies of Mitchell Manor took back their carriage and embarked on their way back.

Not far from Wolf Town, the surrounding area became an uninhabited wilderness.

Only in this way can we truly feel the desolation and loneliness of the newly reclaimed land.

People live in settlements far apart and nothing else.

Catherine was still pestering Mrs. Mitchell about the rules of card, and Anna listened carefully.

Suddenly, everyone heard a "bang" sound from the bottom of the carriage.

Then there was a few "booms" sounds, and the carriage trembled violently and quickly tilted towards a corner.

The ladies in the carriage were scared, and Catherine and Scarlett screamed.

Mrs. Mitchell calmly soothed the screaming two people, while Anna pursed her lips and held her sister's hand tightly. Her face was pale, but she didn't say a word.

Pan Weiche, the old servant brought by Ellen from her parents' home, jumped out of the coachman's seat and quickly helped the ladies out of the carriage.

Old Pan Weiche lay on the ground and looked for a while, then stood up and explained to Mrs. Mitchell: "Miss, it should be a broken shaft."

"Little uncle, take off the horse." Ellen had only one way at the moment: "Ride home first, and then drive a carriage."

Although it was a master-servant relationship, Ellen called Pan Weiche "Little Uncle", and Pan Weiche rarely called her wife. Allen called her "Miss" when she was a child.

"What should you do if you stay here? Miss."

"Don't worry, it's safe nearby." Ellen replied with a smile: "Don't worry about us."

Pan Weiqi nodded. Although he was still a little worried, he rode away on a horse.

After Old Pan Weiche left, only four women, Ellen, Scarlett, Anna and Catherine, were left by the road.

Staying lonely in the deserted wilderness, looking around at the vast horizon, Catherine suddenly felt a little fear.

"Isn't this dangerous here?" Catherine grabbed her sister's arm tightly and asked timidly: "Will there be a wolf? Or a bad guy in the robber?"

"Wolf? No, wolves rarely appear here. Mr. Montane brought people to fight very cleanly." Ellen comforted Catherine softly.

Scarlett was not afraid at all. She proudly told Catherine with a slight sense of victory: "There are no bandits or robbers, because the bandits and robbers were also beaten very clean by Mr. Montane."

"That's where there are wolves, and there were bad guys before, right?" Catherine was even more scared.

"Yes, but Mr. Montane has been cleaned up." Scarlett replied naturally.

"I don't want to stay here, sister." Catherine hugged her sister and cried: "Let's go back to Hailan, it's so dangerous here."

Anna hugged her sister helplessly, smiled apologetically at Mrs. Mitchell and Mitchell, and looked at the sky thoughtfully.

"What are you afraid of?" Scarlett felt incredible. She pointed to the hillside not far away and said, "Look, isn't there anyone there?"

"where?"

“It’s right there.”

Following the direction indicated by Scarlett, Anna and Catherine saw a strange scene.

Five naked men and a very thin cow were slowly moving on the sunny side of the hillside.

"Oh my God." Catherine turned her head suddenly: "Why are they not wearing clothes."

Ellen sighed and replied softly: "The clothes are worn and cannot be repaired, and the skin is worn and can grow again."

"What are they doing?" Anna looked at the five people and asked in confusion.

“It’s clearing the land and plowing the land.”

But the two ladies Navare didn't even understand what it meant to plow the land, and Scarlett had to explain it carefully.

Ellen simply explained to Anna and Catherine the whole story of "the Montagne garrison distributed wasteland to refugees to reclaim wasteland."

"But today is Sunday." Catherine asked in confusion: "Sunday shouldn't be working, do they not rest Sunday?"

Ellen and Scarlett were silent.

"They." Anna said softly, "There should be reasons why I and you don't know."

Among the five men plowing the field, a middle-aged man gasped and said to the old man in front: "Dad, let's take a break."

The gray-haired old man stopped, turned around and looked at the thin ox dripping water on his nose, and said, "Stay for a while, let the animals rest for a while."

This old man is the old man who answered Winters in the town square.

The plowing land should be with animals in front of the plow and people behind the plow.

But four of the five men stood in front of the livestock, leaving only a child who had not grown up to plow behind.

Not because they are stupid, but because they don't have enough large animals to pull the plow.

The soil in the newly reclaimed land is sticky, and the wasteland that has not been reclaimed for thousands of years has long been formed into a piece of stone.

You must use heavy pulling horses to plow to cultivate them.

Winters didn't have many big animals in his hands, and he gave them all to refugees, but it was still not enough.
