"If you have great ambitions but little talent, and have high vision but low abilities, that will be really troublesome."
Lin Peng touched his chin and said with a smile: "We have a general named Kaishen over there in the Eastern Continent. This man also thinks he is great, so when he commands the army, he will directly reduce the command unit to individuals;
That's right, during the formation stage before the battle, he would make such and such-and-such steps forward and the degree at which such-and-such's bow and arrow should be fired, which seemed incredible."
"Well, then this general is indeed quite powerful." Ross shrugged and said: "Although Afonso VI's commanding ability is very poor, he still has a little self-awareness. To put it simply, he only knows how to be in command.
Command in the general direction, such as a feint attack on the left wing of the army, an assault in the middle, etc... Hmm? Brother, by the way, the forest in front is the legendary castle forest, right?"
Ross stuck his head out of the carriage, looked at a forest in the distance and said: "I heard that there is a castle built by Count Dracula in the center of the Castle Forest. Countless explorers have entered the Castle Forest.
I wanted to find that castle to find out what was going on, but in the end, none of these people were able to leave the forest of the castle alive."
Count Dracula?
Hearing this familiar name, Lin Peng suddenly became energetic, but Lin Peng quickly remembered another problem, that is, Count Dracula is just a character in a literary work, and his character prototype is active in ten countries.
The fifth century, so this has nothing to do with the "Count Dracula" in Ross's mouth.
"Yes, this is the legendary Castle Forest, and there is indeed an ancient castle in it, because the wife of Count Dracula, the builder of this castle, suddenly contracted a strange disease.
He just couldn't stay under the sun for a long time, so Count Dracula decided to build a castle in the forest to settle his wife, because this would allow his wife to move freely during the day. Of course, the natural movements here are also
It can only be done in the forest.”
"But after I came here, I also heard a very interesting rumor, that is, Count Dracula was actually very ugly, so he could only wear a mask for a long time to cover up his appearance flaws. Therefore, Dracula
The count did not build this castle for his wife, but for him to have a space where he could take off his mask and be his true self; as for some people who entered the forest of the castle and never came out again, the main reason
Or these people were originally Count Dracula’s subordinates.”
Cid hit him and said with a smile: "But after the legend of the Castle Forest spread, not many people dared to come to this forest to hunt and log, so there are many animals in the Castle Forest.
Therefore, there are more and more carnivorous animals like wolves and lions, so no one dares to enter the forest of the castle casually; but as far as I know, the descendants of Count Dracula do not like to live in inaccessible places.
In the forest, and at that time, King Afonso VI was recruiting soldiers everywhere, so the descendants of Count Dracula chose to leave the forest of the castle together."
"So, there is an ownerless castle in this forest? I remember that several of Count Dracula's descendants must have passed away."
Rose's eyes lit up and he continued: "My territory happens to be nearby, so if I can win some military honors this time, I should be able to upgrade to a noble title, and then I can choose the new territory in the castle.
Forest, so that I can earn a count-level castle for free."
"Theoretically, this is true, but there are many people who have the right to inherit this castle. For example, the Viscount Morte next door to you is the grandson of Count Dracula; and the castle in the Castle Forest is really difficult to get, because you
Unless you plan to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, you have to spend money and effort to clean up the predators near the castle first, lest you get up early every morning and hear the housekeeper report to you how many people were missing last night."
Cid touched his chin and said seriously: "Besides, there isn't even a decent city near the Castle Forest. This means that if Rose wants to buy something, you may have to be prepared to leave home for several days.
Prepare."
"Forget it, I don't want to waste my precious time on the road, so it's better to give this castle to others to live in."
As soon as Ross finished speaking, a dull roar suddenly came from the other side of the castle forest, which frightened the two horses pulling the carriage to stand up.
"Is this the sound of a bear? And it should be a giant bear!" Lin Peng said with a frown.
At this time, in the forest of the castle, Ding Kun and Xiao Zhi on the farm both heard the roar of the bear.
Ding Kun put down the hammer in his hand and said with some depression: "How many top predators are there in this forest? Yesterday, two lions and a pack of wolves appeared, but now a bear and a ray of light appeared.
Just by listening to the sound, you can tell that the bear is a scary-sized bear. Doesn’t that make it fun for people?”
Xiao Zhi nodded and said solemnly: "The most important thing is that this is a giant bear that has not hibernated. This means that it failed to store enough heat for the winter in autumn, so it will now
Continue to move; however, we still don’t know whether this giant bear did not hibernate at all, or whether it was awakened by hunger in the middle of hibernation. If it is the latter, then this giant bear should still be in a weak state today."
"It should be the former, because the roar it just made was really full of energy, and it didn't look like it was woken up by hunger; but fortunately, this giant bear was still quite far away from us, and it would take a while.
They probably won’t come to trouble us.”
Ding Kun looked at the direction of the roaring bear, and silently prayed in his heart that if there was a conflict between the giant bear and the group of wild wolves, it would be best if both sides would be injured.
After the prayer, Ding Kun said to Hong Wei on the side: "Okay, let's continue to do our own thing, but Hong Wei, please arrange for a few people to go to the sentry tower to keep an eye on it. If there is any sign of trouble, they will immediately
To sound the alarm, it is better to kill by mistake than to miss."
Hong Wei nodded, put down what he was doing, and then called a few people to leave the square.
"Brother Ding, do you think we should strengthen the fence?" Xiao Zhi asked, still a little worried, "In order to prevent those wild wolves from jumping over the fence, I think we can place a row of sharpened wooden sticks on the fence.
, let those wild wolves slide and shovel themselves."
Ding Kun thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, but our current manpower is really too tight."
