My Lady Queen

Shortly after One-Eyed Ferring left, Wish and Brant set off.

Because the carriage escorting Mina was not driving fast on the forest path, the two of them were only about half a day behind.

Brandt was so anxious that he kept urging him to make a wish along the way, and this time he made a wish to repay Mina's trust and stop procrastinating.

So the two people followed the ruts of the original day and a half journey, and it took a day to finish.

Just when night fell that day, the two of them finally arrived near the lord's castle not far from Straw Town.

At this time, exactly 24 hours had passed since Mina was arrested.

Wishing was already as tired as a dead dog, without any regard for his noble status as "Master Summoned Beast", lying on the ground panting.

Compared with this city nerd, Brant is much better.

He hid behind a wheat stack and carefully observed the situation of the castle.

Wishing finally breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he was on such a light-gravity planet, otherwise, he couldn't guarantee that his "will" or "body" would collapse first.

He resisted the pain all over his body, crawled up behind Brant with his hands and feet, and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

As he spoke, he poked his head around and followed Brandt's gaze to look out.

They are now at the edge of a field surrounded by stacks of wheat that have just been harvested, and several ragged farmers are walking slowly into the distance.

About 300 meters ahead stands a huge but equally dilapidated castle complex.

A moat not much deeper than the stinking ditch meanders in front of the city gate. The wooden city gate across the river has no intention of closing. Two guards wearing leather armor and holding spears are chatting and laughing together. It doesn't look like the heavily guarded medieval castle that Wishing imagined.

It seems that this Baron Macbeth is not a powerful lord.

Thinking about it, this place is located on the edge of the Wailing Forest, mostly hilly landforms, with limited arable land, and cannot support a large population. Naturally, in such a social environment with low productivity, it cannot afford to support the overly luxurious life of the nobles.

But a lean camel is bigger than a horse. After all, Macbeth has a title. As a lord, he also has taxation rights. The subordinate army headed by One-Eyed Film is powerful enough to shock one side.

Naturally, it also includes the wish that just turned into a light bulb.

Except for a few sporadic lights in the castle, a large area nearby was completely dark.

Brandt was impatient for a long time. Seeing that everything around him was normal, he bent over and wanted to get out.

Wishing was startled, and grabbed his arm.He asked urgently, "What are you going to do?"

Brandt couldn't break free and made a wish: "Of course I went to save Mina!"

"Then do you know where she is being held? Do you just want to walk in and save people so ostentatiously?"

Brandt suddenly felt like a discouraged ball: "Then what do you say?"

Wishing looked around: "Follow me!"

In the field not far away, although the crops have been harvested, there are still some scarecrows planted. These scarecrows are all wearing tattered clothes and straw hats on their heads.

Not to mention the wishing jeans and T-shirts, even Brandt's wooden armor is particularly eye-catching. If you walk past it like this, you may not even be able to enter the city gate.

Now that the two have decided to go deep into the tiger's den to save people, there is nothing to say. They tore off the scarecrow's clothes and put them on themselves. He quickly caught up with the farmers in front of him, and walked towards the city gate with three steps.

It may be that it has been safe for too long, or it may be that the main focus of defense is the Yiren. The two guards at the door let them in without even looking at them.

After entering the door, I made a wish and found that the inside of the castle is not as good as the outside.

Right in front of it was an open space, with sewage running across it, and the ground was muddy.I made a wish and even saw people living with pigs in a nearby shack, and a dirty child was climbing up and down on the pig.

It was also the first time for Brant to enter the lord's castle. This huge stone building complex immediately made him dumbfounded, and he didn't know where to go for a while.

Fortunately, making a wish has some common sense, knowing that such a big man usually lives in the highest place of the castle.

He looked up, and sure enough, he found that a pointed tower was brightly lit and crowded with people.

So he quickly pulled Brant, and the two of them hid in the shadows as much as possible, and leaned cautiously toward the tower.

There was no danger along the way, and the two of them finally came to a long corridor. There were obviously more people here. There were not only soldiers in gray leather armor, but also a bloated cook and a man in a white turban. maid.

Everyone was very busy, some carrying jugs, some carrying dishes, coming in and out in a hall.

Smelling the aroma of the food, I made a wish and remembered that I hadn't eaten for a day.

According to the habit of moving food and grass before soldiers and horses moved, Wishing immediately decided to solve the stomach problem first.

Even if you die, you have to be a dead ghost, right?

He looked around cautiously, and found that one of the rooms was dimly lit and no one was in or out, so he took Brant and sneaked in again.

Although Brant was anxious to save Mina, he was a 16-year-old boy after all. He was so nervous in this environment that he had no idea at all, so he had no choice but to follow his wish.

When I came to the door, I made a wish and gently pushed open a crack in the door. This seemed to be a bedroom, very quiet. There was only a pine oil lamp lit in the room. I don’t know what was added to the lamp. It had a sweet smell. It makes people's eyelids heavy when they smell it.

I don't care too much about making a wish. After all, this place is still in the corridor, and people come and go. Every second I stay there will be more dangerous.

After making sure that there was no one in the room, he pulled Brant into the room.

With the help of the dim light, Wish quickly looked around the room.

This should be a side room, with a small area, except for a wooden bed with hanging curtains, there are only a few simple pieces of furniture.

On a table facing the door of the house was a dinner plate with three long loaves of wheat bread, a small dish of fine salt, and a glass of dark red wine.

The silver flatware and cutlery gleamed in the light of pine lamps.

From this point of view, the status of the people living here should not be low.

Wishing to make a wish, I have been hungry for a long time, and I will inevitably make a big fuss tonight, and there is nothing to worry about.

So he grabbed three loaves at once, stuffed one to Brant, grabbed the other two in his hands, and opened his mouth to take a big bite.

I have to say that although this bread is rough, it is full of wheat flavor and toasted just right.

Just when Wishing was choked and rolled his eyes, he suddenly heard a burst of messy footsteps coming from the door behind him.

Wishing was frightened to death, but the room was too small and there was no hiding place at all.

Fortunately, Brant was very experienced. He pointed to the big bed, and the two quickly got under the bed.
