Chapter 252: Nowhere to be found after wearing iron shoes
After compacting the gunpowder in a wooden box, Narant placed it in a cool place to dry.
The next steps can only be carried out after the black powder has completely dried.
Time turned and it came to night, and it was still an unpretentious and low-key nightlife.
After having a sumptuous dinner, I checked on the progress of the three girls' fighting spirit training, and enjoyed a shaved ice with the three girls before going back to the room to rest.
…
That night!
Inside Lucky Village.
Although more than two hundred new serfs have just arrived today, due to the special existence of the Storm Territory, there is no shortage of dilapidated and vacant thatched houses in both Lucky Village and Maiye Village.
More than 200 new serfs were asked to take care of themselves, and they were allowed to live in these houses for the first time.
For these newly arrived serfs, being alive was considered lucky, so no one had any objections, especially since they had a free black bread dinner provided by the Storm Territory in the evening.
At this moment, the serfs, who were exhausted physically and mentally due to the panic and fatigue during the day, had fallen into a deep sleep.
However, just in the early morning, two people sneaked out of a dilapidated thatched house.
The two of them didn't speak, just looked at each other, and then headed towards the coast.
During the day, they saw a wooden fence blocking the coast, which made them feel that there must be some ulterior secret inside.
Soon, the two climbed over the wooden fence and arrived at the coast.
"Have you seen the salt mine elf?"
"No, it's strange. During the day, I clearly saw those guards carrying a large amount of salt and sea fish away from the wooden fence!"
"I saw it too! It's so strange! What do you see over there?"
The two murmured for a moment, and soon saw several stoves and cauldrons not far away.
Immediately, the two of them came directly to several stoves and cauldrons. Just when they were wondering what the purpose of so many stoves and cauldrons were on the beach, they soon discovered the clues.
Because they found a lot of salt grains on the ground nearby.
You should know that table salt is very precious, but these large pots were covered with snow-white salt grains on the ground, which made the two of them feel that they had discovered some important information.
So, they began to observe their surroundings more carefully. After a while, they found that there were salt particles remaining in the barrels and the cauldron.
The two looked at each other. Although they couldn't figure out the reason for a while, they had a vague feeling that there must be a big secret hidden here.
"What are these things used for?" one of them asked curiously, holding a wooden basin used as a filter.
"I don't know, but there are a lot of grains of salt on this thing, and it looks weird at first glance. It must have some great use!"
"Why don't we take this thing with us, and also go to the two elf farmlands we saw during the day, and then go back directly!"
"Okay, I heard that this ghost place is full of evil. Quint's illegitimate son sent many people to find out the news, but they all came and went. We were sent here this time. It was really bad luck, so we had to leave quickly.
good!"
"Shh! Illegitimate child is not something we can say, but you are right. This place is too dangerous. I secretly looked at the two fields during the day, and the plants on them seemed to be new to us.
Let’s go pick some and we’ll be able to hand them over then!”
After saying that, the two of them quietly left the beach carrying a wooden basin filter.
The two of them thought they were unaware of the ghosts, but they didn't know that a gray little sparrow had a clear view of everything they did.
Little Huihui rolled his eyes, and then immediately flew towards Kenby Cowdung's house.
Kenbi Cowdung was fast asleep at the moment. In order to accommodate the newly arrived villagers today, he was very tired after following Vivian busy working behind her.
In the dreamland, Kenbi Cow dung was smashing his mouth, and he dreamed that he was eating the white sugar and white bread rewarded by the lord.
The snow-white bread looked whiter and more attractive than the noble lady's skin, and the fragrant smell made Kenby Cow Dung drool.
"Thank you to the mighty Lord for the reward!"
Kenbi Cowdung held the white bread in his hand, thanked him in the direction of the castle, and then raised the white bread towards his mouth.
However, at this moment, a flock of birds flew in the sky, trying to grab his white sugar and white bread.
"Get out of here and don't rob me. This is a reward from my lord!"
Kenbi Cowdung tried his best to resist, but the birds were surprisingly ferocious, constantly flying towards his head and biting his face.
"Ah! It hurts! It hurts!" Kenby Cowdung woke up sweating profusely.
"Huh! It turned out to be just a dream! What a pity for my white sugar and white bread." Kenby Cowdung was a little disappointed after he woke up.
twitter!
However, the next moment, he heard several birdsong in his ears.
Kenbi Cowdung was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw a small gray sparrow landing on his shoulder.
"Ah!" Kenby Cowdung was startled and jumped up immediately.
Chirping chirping!
When Xiao Huihui saw Kenbi Cowdung's appearance, he couldn't help but show contempt, and then called out a few more times!
"Ah! I remembered, it turned out to be Miss Shirley's little Huihui!" Kenby Niuhui finally recovered his thoughts after regaining his composure, "Xiao Huihui, what are you doing here? Could it be...
"
Kenbi Cowdung thought of Vivian's explanation during the day, which was the words conveyed by the lord.
If Xiao Huihui comes to see him, it means there is something going on in the village, so take the serfs to check immediately!
Thinking of this, Kenbi Cowdung didn't dare to neglect him. He immediately put on his clothes, picked up a hoe and went out. He woke up five strong villagers in a row, and then Kenbi Cowdung led everyone to follow Xiao Huihui.
.
Soon, Kenby Cowdung was brought to the location of the elf's plowing land by Little Huihui.
"No, someone is stealing!" Kenby Cowdung immediately saw two sneaky figures digging sweet potatoes and purple grass in the farmland.
"Catch them and protect the sweet potatoes and purple grass!"
Kenbi Cow Dung's anger and blood immediately surged. This was something his master had asked him to take care of. He had just dealt with the magical beast that was stealing food a few days ago, and now someone is coming to make plans.
Immediately, Kenbi Cowdung led a group of villagers and rushed forward waving hoes.
The two people were shocked when they saw this, and then they picked up the dug plants in their hands and started running wildly!
"Don't run away, you disgusting thieves!" Kenbi Cowdung raised his hoe and immediately hit one person hard.
When the man saw this, he turned around and kicked Kenby.
"Wow!" Kenby Cowdung screamed miserably when he was kicked in the stomach, but the hoe in his hand still followed the inertia and knocked down the opponent.
Boom!
With a muffled sound, the man was knocked to the ground, and then several villagers swarmed up and caught him.
But the other thief had already entered the Fiery Forest at this moment.
"Quick, go and report to the lord..."
…
Boom, boom, boom!
"Sir, Xiao Huihui has something urgent to report!"
In the castle, Nalant had already entered into a dream, but at this moment he was awakened by an urgent knock on the door, and it was little Shirley Lolita who came.
After Xiao Huihui and Kenby Cowdung caught a thief, they immediately flew back to the castle.
In less than ten minutes, it had arrived at the castle and woke up Shirley.
After hearing this emergency report, Narant naturally did not neglect it. He stood up, opened the door and listened to the report.
"Sure enough, there are spies!" This was not unexpected. Nalant knew that these nobles were very insidious.
"Big Shitou, go and summon the personal guards now, and accompany Shirley to the racecourse to bring out the Charizards!"
"Yes, sir!"
After giving the instructions, Nalant put on his armor and went downstairs under Lilia's service.
Then all the troops were ordered and headed directly towards Lucky Village.
It took more than an hour for Narante to finally reach Lucky Village. On the way, he also met the villagers sent by Kenbi Cowdung.
"Sir, you are finally here! There is another thief who has entered the Fiery Forest. Because it is dark and cannot be seen in the forest, the younger one dare not chase him in!"
"Well, Kenby Cowdung, you performed very well tonight, I know it! As for the thief who escaped, you were right not to chase him!"
Nalant brought the Charizard to guard against the monsters in the Fiery Forest. Otherwise, it would be very dangerous to enter this primeval forest at night.
"Shirley, please let Xiao Huihui go into the woods to check it out first!"
"Yes, sir!"
Shirley sent Xiao Huihui again, and Nalant continued to ask Kenby Cowdung, "What did these thieves steal?"
"Sir, the thief we caught stole a seaside filter and two sweet potato plants, but because we caught him, we didn't have time to take them away!"
"And the other person probably stole a few purple grasses!"
"Oh! Let someone plant the sweet potatoes back first!"
Nalant nodded. The two thieves obviously considered the possibility of cultivating the plants they stole back, so they dug them out carefully without damaging the sweet potatoes and the stems and leaves on them. This actually avoided Nalant's loss, otherwise he would have done it.
It will really hurt for a few days.
Immediately, he walked towards the thief who had been taken over by the guards.
This thief was unlucky. He received a hoe on his leg and it was already covered in blood.
"How's it going? Did you find out anything?"
"Sir, he said that he was sent by the Black Iron Family to inquire about the situation in the territory!"
"And they have heard the news about the Storm Territory and are a little worried that they will meet the same fate as the Quint guards. Therefore, they can't wait to take action tonight and want to return to the Black Iron Territory as soon as possible."
"Well, then ask them if they have any other accomplices!"
"Sir, he told me that there are only two of them!"
"Very good, give him a simple bandage and bring him back to the castle later!" Nalant nodded and immediately began to wait.
The two of them were quite cunning and waited until early in the morning before taking action. It was almost three o'clock in the morning.
This is the most sleepy moment for people. If it weren't for Xiao Huihui, they would have succeeded.
After about half an hour, Xiao Huihui finally made a discovery.
"Sir, Xiao Huihui said that he has seen the thief, and he is still running away in the forest!"
"Very good, take Charizard and we will chase him!" Nalant naturally couldn't let him run away, he had to chase back even the purple grass on that man's body.
At the moment, Nalant left Quick and others to wait where they were, and rode the fire-breathing lizard into the blazing forest with only his bodyguard and Shirley.
The thief hurriedly made his way into the Blazing Forest. Because he could not tell the direction in the dark night, he ran all the way towards the depths of the Blazing Forest.
Fortunately, there is Little Huihui leading the way, and the Charizard has no problem in the forest, and the barbarians are not afraid of the thorny bushes.
About half an hour later, they finally caught up with the escaped spy.
"Sir... have mercy on me, little... I don't dare to do it anymore. I'm just a little hungry, so I stole things!"
Surrounded by several fire-breathing lizards, this Black Iron Family spy actually dared to quibble.
Nalant said nothing more and waved his hand towards the big rock, and the spy was captured immediately.
Soon, four or five purple grasses in the spies' arms were found.
"It's okay!" Nalant breathed a sigh of relief after finally avoiding all losses, "Take it back to me!"
When the personal guards tied up the spy, Nalant was not prepared to stay.
Now they have gone nearly twenty miles deep into the Fiery Forest. Although there is a faint light on the horizon, it is still a bit dangerous.
"Yes, sir!"
The guards picked up the spy and prepared to leave, while Nalant prepared to throw the purple grass into the space ring.
Wow! Wow!
However, at this moment, Nalant used his super hearing to hear sparse and slight sounds coming from not far away.
Nalant immediately raised his hand to signal everyone to stop.
"Shirley, ask Xiao Huihui to look around to see if there is anything approaching!"
"Yes, sir!" Although Shirley didn't know what happened, she didn't dare to neglect her husband when she saw her elders were on guard.
Soon, Xiao Huihui returned, but he brought back unexpected news.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Sir, Xiao Huihui said that there is a group of horses more than two hundred meters away. They seem to want to come this way, but they are a little afraid!"
"Shirley, are you sure?" Nalant's eyes widened immediately!
"Sir, Xiao Huihui said it is definitely a large group of horses!"
"It's really hard to find anything without wearing iron shoes. It takes no effort to get here!" Narant was instantly overjoyed.
The thieving monsters and horses had made him rack his brains these days, but he still had no choice. Unexpectedly, he found the horses first.
"big Stone!"
At that moment, Nalant immediately started to arrange it.
He looked at a mountain stream nearby, went directly to the mountain stream, and placed the purple grass here.
He had reason to believe that these horses probably smelled the smell of purple grass and came closer.
The horses must have noticed their presence now, so they hid in the distance and hesitated.
In this way, after putting down the purple grass, Nalant led everyone to pretend to evacuate.
After retreating four to five hundred meters away, he asked the Charizards to take a detour to cut off the rear, while he and his bodyguards took out ropes and waited.
After more than ten minutes, just as Nalant expected, the horses moved closer to the grass.
After receiving Xiao Huihui's report, Nalant immediately led his guards and carefully touched it back.
Soon, they arrived at a place less than thirty meters away from the mountain stream.
"Hey! Mr. Rongguang, how many horses are these? Twenty, thirty... thirty-seven, thirty-eight!"
In the dim light of dawn, Nalant suddenly took in a breath of cold air.
I saw that there were thirty-eight horses in the mountain stream at this moment.
Although seven or eight of them are ponies, judging from the size and hair of these horses, they are definitely excellent war horses.
Seeing this scene, Nalant's heart couldn't help but beat loudly.
If nothing else, measured in terms of money, this is equivalent to the value of hundreds of gold coins.
