Undead Farm

Chapter 37

"Although the job you gave me is to warn the goblins, but the ranger's responsibility to ensure the safety of the forest is also one of his responsibilities. If this is the case, let's each make a compromise. I'll refund one... one day's wages should be enough."

In the middle of the night, he lined up the silver coins in his hand and asked tentatively.

The salary of a ranger is 3 silver coins a day, plus 4 silver coin per day for the 1 soldiers who are assigned to him but he does not want, then his daily salary is 7 silver coins.

It doesn't seem like much, but the cheapest black leather bread only sells for 10 copper coins, and 1 silver coin is enough to buy 10 loaves, which is considered a relatively high salary in Lorraine City.

Of course, if you want to eat whole wheat bread with better taste and nutrition, it will definitely not be enough, and it may not be available yet.

But Weng Ling had no choice. She had just taken over Luolan City and was not good at the financial system, so the financial officer still used the previous salary standard.

The standard after the decline of Lorraine City...

Weng Ling frowned: "You'd better keep this, didn't I not be able to stop the three of them? I'll help you figure out how to deal with salary, as for work..."

"I'll continue to stay here!" Ye Sangeng said hastily.

He couldn't think of being kicked out by Weng Ling, after all his buildings were all stuck here.

Weng Ling looked at him and thought for a while, then nodded. Anyway, there are no goblins here, so there is no need to worry about his safety.

"By the way, those three people..." Ye Sangen turned his head to look at the fire scene.

"It's a paladin sent by the Holy Silver Church to purify the undead." Weng Ling said calmly.

"Then that Yang Tian is your fiancé or something, right? He seems very attractive to me."

Ye San didn't care about being authentic, but Weng Ling turned his head and stared at him closely.

"Well, I guessed it casually, don't worry about it!"

Weng Ling smiled bitterly: "Then your guess is really accurate, but strictly speaking, I should be their child bride."

"Child bride?!" Ye San was a little surprised.

"Yeah." Weng Lin nodded, showing no emotion on her face.

Although the fire in the forest was extinguished, the remaining warmth was still there. A gust of warm wind blew, and Weng Ling's hair fluttered like a blue butterfly.

"Want to hear my story?"

Weng Ling brushed lightly on the ground and sat down, then patted to the side, and looked at the middle of the night.

"I don't want to!" Ye Sangen shook his head.

This is not the time to sing about wine, and he has no wine.

"Uh...but I want to say it, so you have to listen, or you'll pay me back!" Weng Ling raised his eyebrows and held out his palm to Ye Sangeng.

As soon as Ye Sangen heard it, he immediately sat next to her, as if sitting upright and listening attentively.

"It's like this..."

Weng Ling calmed down, and then began to narrate his past:

Her father was the lord of Lorraine, but her mother was just a peasant's daughter, so it was doomed that she would not have a good reputation.

In order to prevent her from being bullied by her "brothers, uncles and aunts", Weng Ling's mother sent her to the nearest Holy Silver Church when she was six years old.

In that church, her talent as a clergyman was quickly noticed, and she was finally adopted by the Yang family, the actual controller of the church, but in fact, the Yang family only regarded her as Yang Tian's child bride.

No, it should be worse than the child bride!

What the Yang family is interested in is Weng Ling's unusual affinity for light. The purpose is to let their offspring slowly acquire the affinity gene in her through marriage with her, so that the status of the Yang family in the church will also be strengthened. will be more stable.

That's why Weng Ling hated her own abilities. She never seriously studied the magic teaching of the light department, but pretended to be stupid and unable to learn. In order to protect herself, she developed another talent of her own:
Weird power.

What was even more fortunate was that Yang Tian's talent in the light department was not inferior to her. It was obviously more beneficial for the Yang family to climb high branches when the future was limitless, so she was spared in the past few years.

Unfortunately, the Yang family also has a stupid son, Yang Wei, who is good at wind magic as a paladin, so Weng Ling's engagement partner became him again.

But Weng Ling knew that this was just a superficial effort of the aristocratic family, what she actually wanted to do was Yang Tian's underground lover!

A reproductive tool at the mercy of others, only to give birth to a more perfect offspring for the Yang family!

So after learning that all of her relatives led by Lorraine had died, she sneaked up to take over without even being sad. With the status of the lord as a shelter, at least on the surface, it would not be so easy for the Yang family to control her.

The lord represents the authority of the principality, even the Yang family has to weigh it carefully.

But in the dark...

Then it depends on her own ability.

Weng Ling stroked his palm, there was a faint hexagram flickering there, this is the engraved seal representing the lord, only with this can he be regarded as a legal lord.

Thinking of the scene when the mercenary handed her the box that day, Weng Ling suddenly wiped the corner of his eyes. It was her mother's only dowry...

"When I was a child, my mother often took me to pick fruits and hunt rabbits in the Loland Forest. At that time, there were no goblins or ferocious beasts in the Loland Forest. The happiest time in my life was to be with my mother." Running through the woods, but now..."

Weng Ling raised her head, and a few pieces of ashes swirled and landed on her black hair.

Yang family!

She thought that she could finally get rid of this nightmare by escaping to Lorraine, but she didn't expect that the other party still refused to let her go.

And as long as the Luolan collar can't develop, it means that she will never be able to accumulate the power to counter the Yang family, and sooner or later she will still be reduced to a plaything of the Yang family.

"Without the forest, these ashes should make the land more fertile, and there are also no goblins. Can't we all grow food together?" Ye San even asked the doubts in his heart.

Weng Ling shook his head, picked up a short stick from the side, and turned the soil under his feet, revealing the gray and black soil.

"Look at this soil, it has long been corroded by the natural disasters of the undead. It is completely impossible for ordinary people to grow food on it. After all, not everyone can use natural spells like your old housekeeper."

"As a matter of fact, the entire Loran forest cannot be cultivated with any crops, but the naturally growing forests have not been affected. According to the old man, this is the credit of the guardian god of the Lorraine forest. God..."

Weng Ling suddenly sneered.

Ye Sangen turned over the gray-black soil with his hands. In fact, when he buried himself alive, he felt a very, very faint breath of undead in this land.

It is very weak, as weak as throwing a grain of salt into a swimming pool, but the breath of the undead is the breath of the undead after all, and it will still be a devastating threat to delicate plants.

From this point of view, the stone wall should also act as a dividing line. Only the land outside the wall can barely grow crops, but...

"Undead Scourge? Can you tell me about this?"

　Thank you Feiyang for your reward again.
