Chapter 2 Old Peasants

It is said that it is winter, because of the proximity to the sea, and the Alterac Mountains to the north to intercept the cold air from the north, so the climate in the Hillsbrad Hills is only a little wet and cold, not the dry and cold in winter. The hilly area is still green, ordinary people only add a little bit of clothing, and the second-stage professionals are even the usual ones.

The change in weather did not affect them particularly dramatically. Of course, the change of seasons throughout Azeroth is not too noticeable, which is not to say that there are no seasonal changes. But, for unknown reasons, the Titans have the opportunity to make each huge area make them call themselves the system. The vast majority of regions are surrounded by towering mountains and have their own climate.

Adventurers and merchants who venture around are generally prepared according to the place they want to go and according to the special climate of the place, but this is very far away for ordinary people, and more ordinary people live a very ordinary life. They rise and rest, they are ordinary farmers, who have lived on their land for generations. Industrious and simple life.

Old John was one of them, he lived in the hills and plains, and he owned a small farm of his own. Although he is not rich, at least he is a well-off family, relying on his small farm. John Sr. lived happily ever after for decades.

Old John was excited at dawn today, and in the midst of his wife's thousands of instructions, John put on a dozen wagons in the backyard, the back of which was obviously full of goods, and the carts were covered with thick hay. Can't see what's inside.

Soon after, a group of young people who looked very simple came to the backyard.

One of the young men who took the lead said excitedly: "Uncle John, you are so early, we are still thinking about getting up early to help." I'm sorry I didn't expect you to be ready. ”

Old John scolded the young man with a smile, patted him on the shoulder and said, "This is your help to me, how can you make you too tired, besides, uncle, I didn't sleep well all night." ”

"Haha, uncle, don't make fun of us. We haven't been out of the house since we were so big, especially if we can go to Jasper Collar this time, I know that Uncle is willing to take us there. We really haven't slept well in days. Another young man said.

"Young people, that's what I was like when I was my age." Old John patted his forehead and said, "Look at my memory, have you had breakfast so early, if it's useless, I'll ask my mother-in-law to prepare some." ”

The young man who took the lead hurriedly said, "Uncle, you don't need to bother. Let's go. We all can't wait. I also want to go to the Jasper Collar to see what the dragon looks like. ”

"And me, I want to play in the amusement park, and one of my cousins said that it was fun over there, and it was displayed in front of me all day long, which made me very shameless."

"And me, I heard that the stadium of Jasper Collar is free and open, and I have long wanted to play football myself." A small boy said.

"Cut, it's a rotten technique that we kicked out with a straw ball. I don't want to be embarrassed. I just want to see the Jasper Leader's quarterly tournaments, and I've heard that the losing legion is very faceless. And they will do the most dangerous and faceless things, and they will kill every time, so their skills are also the best, and I have long wanted to learn a few tricks. ”

"I just heard that the locomotive of the jade collar is very fun, and I heard that it can be ridden for free, I ......"

"Cut, you guys are really useless, my only purpose is to go to the lord's mansion to have a look, maybe I can meet the marshal, he is my idol, and I will join the army when I grow up."

The young man's words immediately attracted a burst of ridicule: "Little monkey, you can pull it down, you are still a soldier with your body and bones, forget it, you can't even use your anger now." ”

"That's it, little monkey, being a soldier is really not for you."

"Little monkey, you have to think about it, you have to work hard to be a soldier."

The little monkey's face turned red and said: "You look down on me, wait, even if I can't become a big hero when I grow up, at least I will become a general." ”

Uncle John sighed and said, "Little monkey, I advise you to dispel this idea." ”

"Why, uncle, don't even you look down on me?" The little monkey's face suddenly couldn't hang up, and tears swirled with it.

Uncle John said earnestly: "Little monkey, your idea is good, but things are not as simple as you think. You must know that not every territory has encountered a good lord like the Jasper Collar, and there is only one marshal in the entire alliance. Let's just talk about you being a soldier, it's not as simple as you think. Alright, alright, it's not too early, let's go on the road, now let's hurry first, Potter and the little monkey will help me drive the big car, and the others will each drive a small car, and we will go. ”

The leading cart was huge, wide and long, but there were two batches of horses pulling it, and the goods on their bodies were four or five times as large as the cart behind. The uncle shouted and drove the cart towards the outside of the village. And Little Monkey and Potter are right next to Uncle John. Although the teenagers in the back are not very old, they have grown up on the farm since they were children, and driving the car is a survival instinct for them, and they follow behind one by one in the car. The small convoy formed a small long queue and slowly marched along the low-lying dirt road towards the outside of the town.

When he was out of the town, an old farmer led an old horse-drawn cart and walked outside, and when he saw John, a look of envy flashed in his eyes: "John boy, you are going to Jasper Collar in person." ”

"Uncle? What are you doing here? John said suspiciously: "Not long ago, this kid Peter said that he would not let you dare to work in the farm from now on, and let you cultivate well at home." ”

"Alas, don't blame Peter, I did it of my own volition." The old farmer sighed and said, "Originally, we were also good this year, but who knew that Peter had a serious illness, and we knew our situation. What else can we have left but the taxes handed over to the lord. Peter's illness requires us to take care of the crops on the farm, otherwise we won't be able to survive next year. ”

Old John slapped the wheel of the car fiercely and said loudly: "Uncle, you don't regard me as your own family." I didn't know that something so big had happened, and I blamed me, I was busy and confused for a while, and I didn't visit the door for so long. ”

The old man hurriedly shook his head and said, "How can I blame you, you have great ability, and your ability to grow crops is the best in the town." This time, the marshal and his old man's men came to our town to buy qualified fruits and vegetables for the festival, and only the things you planted were taken care of. Don't you know, our town is glorious, maybe the marshal and his old people can eat your food. It's only right for you to stay on the farm all day, but if you slack off, the whole town won't let you go. ”

"Alas, uncle, you wait for me to come back." John listened with tears in his eyes, and said with a chest lined up: "The jasper collar is very kind, and the price of the goods is three times the usual, and when I come back, I will be rich, and I promise to take Peter to the city." Oh no, you see my memory, uncle, we quickly carried Peter into the car, and I took him to the church of Jasper. ”

"John, you don't have to say it. I know what you're thinking, but we can't take it. Who doesn't know that it's not easy for you, your kid is so angry that he actually went to school in Jasper, it's all money. And the church of Jasper Collar has even been with the archbishop, can we get in? Even if we can get in, we can't afford the cost of going there for two years without eating or drinking. ”

John couldn't laugh when he heard this, and said, "My uncle, where did you hear all this, who told you that my kid costs money to go to school in Jasper?"

The old farmer shook his head firmly and said, "You don't have to hide it from me, don't look at me as old, but I don't know anything." It is said that our lord's little son went to school and spent hundreds of gold coins just for the entrance fee, and I heard that it was just the beginning, and what tuition, book fees, tuition and miscellaneous fees would be charged in the future, anyway, I don't understand, but it adds up to more than a hundred gold coins for half a year......"

"Uncle, you can pull it down." Saying that, John looked around, and saw that there was no one else around before he said: "You don't know what virtues the son of the lord's family has, he didn't pass the guò assessment at all, or the lord's wife used to know Mayor Morgana, and she went to the Jasper Collar several times to do it, but you still have to talk about money like this." That kid in my family was chosen by his ability, and there was no one in the crowd. I don't need money to go to school at all, I don't need any expenses, I have to eat and live, and I even have clothes every quarter. Not long ago, my boy wrote to him that he had won some scholarship and that he still had money. Last time, the person from the jasper collar said that I would send a car to receive the goods, I wondered how to trouble people, and I also wanted to go over there to see my boy, and send something by the way, I heard that he was selected to participate in some training, and he can't come back this year. ”

The old farmer nodded as if he didn't understand, but still said: "Then you can't go to the church of Jasper Ling, we poor people, where are so exquisite, just spend money to ask the priest to take a look." ”

"Uncle, I said so much in vain." John smiled and said: "Jasper Collar is different from the place you said, it is the real holy place, the land where the Holy Light shines, if you go to give money, I guarantee that you will not find a priest to help you heal." That kind of holy light land, how can it be polluted by money, you can rest assured to send me Peter, don't worry, you don't need money over there. ”

"There really is such a beautiful place in the world, I'm not dreaming, we are poor, people can let us in......" The old man still didn't believe it.

"Uncle, you better hurry, it's important to see a doctor, Potter and Monkey come with me, take a hand."

At this moment, a young man approached, and on his shoulder there was a black bird, whose feathers were as black as ink, and there was a slight arc of lightning flashing on his body.

"Excuse me, I heard that there are patients on your side?" …… (To be continued......)

PS: Carvin, I've re-planned the outline, and it's finally smooth.

In the end, I still ask for a monthly pass, the classification is about to be squeezed down, and the chrysanthemum is very painful to be exploded, asking for support, asking for a counter-explosion......
