[Chapter 246 The Atmosphere Has Changed]
The battle with the desert kingdom has come to an end, and Westwind Town has returned to calm again.
Oh, that’s inaccurate, Westwind has always been calm and doesn’t need recovery.
Early in the morning, in the only tavern in the center of the town, someone was telling a story, and the storyteller was the driver who drove Robb yesterday.
In the tavern, he bragged about what he saw and heard yesterday: Godfather was attacked by a thousand flying axe, but the flying axe passed through his body and could not hurt Godfather at all; Godfather was bombarded by the enemy “Thor’s Roar”, But only burnt all the clothes; Godfather turned into a huge force against the guardian beast of the desert…
This blow is incredible!
People like to listen to stories these days. There is a saying that goes like this: “I have wine, do you have a story?”
In the world of swords and magic, when a traveler is staying in someone else’s house, the owner often does not To receive money, but to let the traveler tell stories to himself, that is the best reward, and this is no exception in Westwind Town.
The story of the coachman caused the whole Westwind Town to boil over, and countless people put down their jobs and went to the tavern to listen to his nonsense. Some people brought him fine wine, some people brought him fragrant tea, just to coax the driver to talk about more details.
Even the No. 8 Necromancer, the Dark Priest, and Chief Elsie and his police officers went to the tavern to listen to the stories, and the work was not well done.
It doesn’t matter if ordinary people don’t work well, but once the police don’t work well, the prisoners in Houshan are in a state of neglect. If they take the opportunity to escape, I’m afraid they can really succeed.
However, the prisoners did not take this opportunity to escape.
Last night, after the dejected Assassin leader, Madara, the thorn-headed prisoners, and the new commander-in-chief and the great shaman were brought back, the entire prison began to have a pessimistic atmosphere.
The spiritual pillar that supported all the thorn-headed prisoners of labor, the army of the desert kingdom east road is now completely over, no one will come to rescue them, and even if they escape from this prison, there will be no army outside to meet them. They had to go into exile all the way, from Westwind Town to the north into the desert, to be considered a complete escape.
No one has the confidence to escape this far, so let’s run away.
They were devastated, but some didn’t care.
Several model reform-through-labor inmates were awarded the titles of “labor reform model” and “advanced reformed laborer” due to their outstanding performance in reform through labor in prison. Robb personally promised to reduce their sentences. The best-performing “labor fighter” has had his sentence commuted to two years.
For these people, it is only a little regretful that the army outside the East Road was driven away, but it has little impact. They believe that through their hard work and good performance, it will not take long for them to regain their freedom, and then they will be upright out of prison.
Luo Xi had promised them that after the labor reform, they could choose to return to the desert, or they could choose to stay in Xifeng Town to be a commoner. What they are really struggling with now is whether to go home or stay here.
Those who still have relatives in the desert, of course, want to go back, but some prisoners have no family. If they eat alone, the whole family is full. In this case, it is not necessary to go back. Where can they live a better life? A good life is what they need to consider.
No one does not like their homeland, but the homeland is a desert, and the living environment is extremely harsh. But this West Wind Town is beautiful, rich and free, and I always feel like I can live the rest of my life happier here…
In short, the news of the defeat of the East Road army has greatly changed the atmosphere in the prison.
Before you know it, there are more people who work hard and strive for commutation of sentences.
Robb sat on his beloved stone chair again, with Erlang’s legs crossed, blowing the morning breeze in a leisurely manner.
Yesterday obviously defeated a large army, but today he looks no different from usual, not even showing the excitement or exhaustion after the war.
Lilian and Sofa brought breakfast, and then Sofa stood beside him with a straight face, waiting for his next order, but Lilian sat down opposite the stone table and ate at the same table with Robb. Come for breakfast.
It was the first time in this world that Sofa saw the maid and the master eating at the same table, and his eyes widened in surprise.
“What are you looking at?” Robb turned his head and said, “You bring your own breakfast too, sit down and eat it together, and stand next to me and watch me eat, so I can’t eat it anymore. How do you feel? It’s like a kitten or a puppy is staring at me when I’m eating. If I don’t feed it twice, I won’t be able to eat by myself.”
Sofa bit her lower lip and said, “What am I? The identity is still very clear.”
Robb found that this woman seemed to like to bite her lower lip to speak, so she couldn’t speak, so her voice was always very low and soft, which was actually quite nice.
“Don’t be kidding, I don’t have so many rules here.” Robb waved his hand and said, “You see Lillian has nothing to do with you. If you think that you are not a lowly person, you still maintain a restraint and pride. , you should be able to sit down and eat at the same table with me boldly, indicating that you and I are equal.”
Sofa bit his lower lip and whispered: “You won’t take the opportunity to say that I have no rules and give me an additional sentence? Rob was delighted: ”
Do you need an excuse to give you an additional sentence? You just need to be rude, arbitrary, and forcibly add a hundred years to you. What can you do to me?”
Thinking about it, it seems to be the case.
Sofa decided to show his unyielding determination to be on an equal footing with the enemy. Although the battle has been lost, at least he cannot lose in terms of momentum.
She returned to the kitchen to bring breakfast, and sat down by the stone table. The three of them formed an equilateral triangle by the stone table, and the distance was kept very subtle.
Robb watched Sofa eat with great interest. One of the great advantages of this woman is that the way she eats looks very delicious. Although she only eats a piece of bread and a glass of milk, she seems to be facing the world. The most delicious thing, every bite is very happy and satisfying.
Emotions are contagious, and if the person you eat with eats deliciously, you will feel delicious too.
“Very good!”
Robb was about to praise her when he suddenly saw a large group of people at the door of the church, headed by Baron Noren, and his apprentice knight nephew, followed by a group of people who looked like servants , The group stopped outside the church yard, and people with low status were kept outside the yard and were not allowed to enter.
Only Baron Noren and his nephew entered the yard and approached Robb’s stone table, the iconic gentleman greeting: “Good morning, Godfather!”
