Heaven’s Intention

A heavy rain last night. It was a bit chilly, but as soon as the morning sun shone on the ground, the chill from the rain completely turned into a source of warm mist.

The town of Rika in the early morning is very lively, because it is the season of sowing, many people have already woken up early, had a much richer breakfast than usual, and then rushed to the fields to work and plant seeds.

Even the mayor and those officials who are pampered and pampered on weekdays are no exception.

Time is precious to the people of Rika Town at this time.

On the streets of the small town, farmers in twos and threes walked out of the town with their farm tools on their shoulders after breakfast.

Almost all shops are already open for business at this time.

But there are exceptions. The family of blacksmiths, who have always been hardworking, unexpectedly did not open the door these days.

At the beginning, not many people noticed this situation. The blacksmith family relied on craftsmanship, not farming to make a living. It's not a big problem to get up early and get up late. Besides, who doesn't have time to visit relatives and friends?

But after a long time, it attracted people's attention. It is okay for the blacksmith shop to be closed for a while, but after a long time, those who want to cast iron are in a hurry.

In the entire town of Rika, there are not many ironware that need to be forged. Apart from forging farm tools, the townspeople seldom forge weapons. Therefore, one blacksmith shop can survive in the town, and another one is superfluous. up.

There is only one blacksmith shop in the entire town of Rika, and its long closure has caused a lot of inconvenience to people.

Ike, are you going to do farm work?

In the morning, a big man was walking on the street carrying two farm implements, just like the previous few days. The townspeople who came and went greeted him warmly. His name was Ike.

His popularity in the town has always been good. When the evil disaster broke out, he once rushed to the front to save a neighbor's child. Injured, although the injury is not serious, but has since been respected by the neighbors.

Hearing someone ask, Ike replied with a smile: No, the head of the farm tool is broken, go to the blacksmith for help.

The voice is loud, the steps are big, and there is a breath of tough townspeople everywhere.

He walked very fast, and soon walked from the street to the blacksmith shop at the end of the street. Seeing that the door of the blacksmith shop was closed, Ike couldn't help raising his thick eyebrows: No one came here yesterday,

Why is the door closed again today?

Ike, what's the matter? Another person passed by the blacksmith shop, saw him standing in front of the door, and said casually, Did you come to find the blacksmith? They haven't been home for several days, the door has been locked, and they don't know where to go Well, it's strange to say that they seemed to be leaving overnight that night. They left in such a hurry that I really don't know what happened.

Walking overnight? Did you see that? Hearing this, Ike narrowed his eyes slightly and asked again.

Well, it's true that I walked all night. You know, I always go to the pub in the evening to brag. I will come back when the moon rises high. Just a few days ago, I finished drinking and prepared to go home. I saw a family of blacksmiths, and a man in weird clothes, walking very fast on the street. I was half sober at the time, and I didn’t notice it was their family. When I hid and took a closer look, I realized it was them. ... As soon as the man brought up this topic, he felt a little unstoppable.

Midnight? People in weird clothes? How weird? Ike continued to ask.

Well, I was a little dazed at the time, so I didn't see it clearly. Anyway, I was walking with them... The man replied nonsense.

Seeing that he couldn't ask any other clues, Ike chatted casually, carried the farm tools, and walked towards home.

He lives alone in his family, a young man in his twenties who hasn't married yet, but. The room was neatly tidied up. After closing the courtyard door and putting down the farm tools in the corner, he didn't bother to wipe his hands, and walked towards the side room.

There was a lock on the door, and when he opened the lock, there was a sound of pigeons, which brought a smile to his face.

There is a table next to it, and there are paper and pens in the drawer. Take out a long and thin white paper, write a few lines on it, roll the written paper into a long strip, and stuff it into the small tube on the pigeon's leg within.

Go. Going outside, he threw the pigeon in his hand upwards, and the white bird spread its wings and flew towards the distance. That direction was Teta Xiaoling.

A day later, Romon, who was reading the account books in the study, welcomed today's first and second guests—Nick and Farfer.

The simultaneous visit of these two people made Romon a little surprised. You must know that since more and more things happened in the territory, the two partners. Seldom come to him together.

Nick, Faffel, why are you here? Putting down the half-read account book in his hand, Romon asked curiously.

Come and visit Lord Viscount! Farfell said with a smile, but judging from his expression, there seemed to be something worried.

The same goes for Nick on the side. Although he is hiding this emotion, Romon is not only good at observation, but also their good friend, so he can naturally see their emotions at a glance.

Sit down. You must have something to do here, tell me, what's the matter. Romon asked directly.

The two sat down in front of him, and it was Nick who spoke first: I received news from the investigators that the Rolak family suddenly disappeared. Counting today, it's the seventh day. Their home is empty, not only People are gone, valuable things are gone, look, what happened?

Nick didn't say anything about the latter, they grew up together, but Rolek's later behavior made Romon very sad. They also knew that Romon was open-minded, but he would never accept someone who had betrayed him. people.

Farfell on the side also wanted to say something, and probably thought of this, so it's hard to say anymore.

At this time, it was already April. Not only were there many agricultural matters on the territory, but also the cultivation, sowing, and construction of Treasure Island had already been put on the agenda. Thinking, approving, and checking the books kept him very busy.

Hearing the news, he felt that it was a bit strange in his busy life, but he didn't take it seriously. Seeing that his two partners were worried, he shook his head and said, Even if there is any problem, it's their own choice, isn't it? ?

Nick and Farfell glanced at each other, and they could see that Romon didn't take it seriously. Then they changed the subject and began to discuss the spring sowing signs in the territory.

Romon, wheat is also planted in my territory now. This time, whether we can have a good harvest or not depends on whether your seeds are useful. Farfell said half-jokingly.

He and Nick have long been conferred the title of nobility, and their territory has the scale that Romon had at the beginning. Although their family strength is weak, judging from this speed of development, within a hundred years, Nick and Farfell His family, like Viscount Tetashaw's family, will take root in this territory.

Well, your territory has been sown? It seems that the island and I are going to work hard. Romon listened, supported his forehead, and said with a smile.

Although the busy Romon felt a little strange about the disappearance of the Rollek family, he didn't give any instructions.

All his thoughts at this time were on Chunbo.

Nick and Farfell also noticed it from the sidelines. Although they felt that this matter was very strange, they didn't go any further.

Besides, the relationship between Rolek and the three of them used to be unusual. After all, they were the subjects of Baron Rocas and had no real relationship with them. Even if something went wrong, they couldn't be blamed.

After the spring plowing, you can take us to Treasure Island. We have been busy with the affairs of the territory, and we don't even have a chance to go to the island. Nick suddenly mentioned this matter.

Farfell also said: Yes, I heard that the construction of Treasure Island is good. When the spring plowing is over, you can take us for a walk.

In fact, Farfer didn’t care much about the island. He was very interested in going out to sea by boat. He used the sea route to transport refugees a few times ago. Although the land route was easier, it was very dangerous. If he applied for the land route, Romon would definitely not agree.

Now Farfer is also a well-known nobleman, and he has to bear the responsibilities of the family, so he can no longer be as casual as before.

Since it would be better to go by sea, he decided to use the opportunity of helping refugees to go to the mainland and find demons to improve his combat skills.

It's been a year, and basically his martial arts are still at the original level, still at level six!

Okay, after the spring sowing is over, I will take you to the island to stay for a few days. The time should not be too long. You are the pillars of the territory, especially Farfell. You can't think of going to the mainland by boat. Romon first agreed to the request of the two, but before the two were happy, Nick and Farfell suffered a lot later.

Farfell lamented: Hey, why did I get on your thief ship!

Why, do you regret it now? Want to come down? It's too late! Romon smiled slyly in line with Farfell's grief and indignation.

Then, the three good friends laughed.

Nick and Farfell knew very well that without the help of Romon, even if they worked hard for a lifetime, they would not be able to achieve what they are now. Now is the time for territory construction, and it is indeed not the time to travel far.

Wait until this year is over, the territory is fully on the track, and the manpower is replenished. It won't be too late, especially you, Farfer, you are only 20 years old now, and you are already at the sixth level. Before you turn 30, You still have a lot of time to sprint. Romon said.

In fact, when it comes to this, who can compare to Romon, one level up a year!

After hearing this, Farfell nodded helplessly. At this moment, he couldn't help thinking of Rolek, and he sighed secretly.

Rolleck, you can only wish for luck. (!)
