The Defeated Dragon

Chapter 42: The First Sea Trip in Flower Town

“The tide began to recede, sir.” Thomas pulled Shakespeare and said to Lester.

“Give me Shakespeare, you and Tom, Jesse, go find those seafood the way I told you.” Lester took over Shakespeare's rope.

Shakespeare has to run out and chase the waves.

Listerton drinks, “Quiet, Shakespeare! ”

Tremor doesn't listen.

Lester flips down, reaches out his hand, presses Shiversun on the sand, makes it immobile, and gives the order out loud: "Shiversun, be quiet! ”

“Woo...” Ji Sen made two unknown shouts, so he couldn't open the struggle, he could only get down honestly.

Then Lister slowly let go.

Jitson struggles to move again and runs out.

Lester repeatedly held it down and gave the order to keep it quiet. After a few repetitions, Jitsun or finally stopped moving, at this time, he hurried from the knight Karl to deliver a piece of meat, rewarded by Lester to Jitsun: "Quiet, there will be meat to eat, Jitsun, understand. ”

“Woo.” Shakespeare tore the meat apart and swallowed it.

Before it went out, Lester specifically instructed Thomas not to feed it, and only hunger could make the animal memorable and better form a conditional reflex to achieve obedience training.

“My lord, you have the gift of taming a warcraft, and I can predict that in the future Shaksen will be a qualified domestic warcraft. ”

“Of course, if it doesn't, I'll kill it halfway through. Last night's muddy dog bacon tasted good, and I haven't had a few warcraft meats, even at Fort Long Potato. ”

The big dirt dog, meat not sold, was left in the castle to marinate and dry.

“It's really delicious, eating into your stomach and feeling the nourishment of magic on your body.” Marcus also ate at the castle last night.

After training Shaking Sen for a while, Lester handed Shaking Sen over to Carl and drove himself to the shore after the tide to see how the boys were doing.

At this time, Thomas, Tom and Jesse, each wearing a thick leather glove, carrying a bucket, holding a hammer and a shovel, were constantly busy.

Thomas is responsible for turning the stone open and looking for seafood on and under the stone.

Jesse is responsible for shoveling the sand and seafood under the sand.

Tom was responsible for picking up all sorts of seafood that could not be returned to the sea in time to be forced to stranded.

“Teacher Marcus, do you know the relationship between the rising tide and the moon at night?” Lister was in a good mood and asked a question.

Marcus shook his head: "I don't know. ”

“The moon is constantly moving, it attracts seawater, rising or receding tides, and of course, the sun is so attractive, but the sun is much farther away than the moon is attractive. ”

“My lord, I don't understand anything you know about this. ”

Marcus has been polite.

The moon, the solar attracts the sea water? If someone else, he must throw up on each other's faces and not pull an egg. Then argue that you said that the moon sun attracts sea water, why not suck us human beings to heaven, so that everyone can fly, all be Sky Knights, don't lie to me about reading less.

Lister was bored to see Marcus' expression - a foolish native.

Afterwards, he thought to himself, “Since the moon here can cause tides, doesn't that mean that this world is really a planet? Sailing all the way down the Bibbo Sea, can we circle around the planet and come back here? If it's true, maybe one day I can send a fleet for a global voyage? ”

The idea was a little distant, and Lester didn't go on thinking.

Ride to Tom.

Tom hurried to salute: "Sir. ”

“You do your thing, I just look.” At first sight, Tom's bucket was filled with sturgeons, conch, starfish, crabs, rainbows, clams and seafood, as well as insects like sea cucumbers and sea cockroaches.

However, sea cockroaches and sea centipede run, accidentally turning out buckets.

So Tom picked it up clumsy again.

“These two running insects, not seafood, can be thrown away.” Lester warned.

“Oh, good, good, sir.” Tom hurried to throw bugs, wondering if the lord was around, and he always tried to catch it but couldn't, making him sweat.

Not far away, Thomas, who was moving the rock, saw Tom overwhelmed, turned his head and laughed proudly - the three servants of the castle, only he was good enough to succeed the butler.

Because on the other side, Jesse, the dug sand, dug for half a day, and as a result, the lord told him about the shrimp, the shrimp, he didn't catch one, dug indiscriminately, didn't even know to dig along the breathable hole of the seafood.

“What two losers!” He said secretly in his heart.

So happily held the hammer, knocked it under the rock, knocked it down one clam, rainbow, oyster, and occasionally picked up a few small crabs.

“Oysters need to pull out their meat, like this.” Thomas smashed the oyster shell with a hammer and then dug the soft meat out of it.

The former lord said that oyster meat is delicious.

Thomas did not find this ugly soft and spongy thing delicious, but with Lord's account, he would have done it meticulously.

It's not hard.

There are oysters and rainbows everywhere on the bare rocks after the tide recedes.

In just two hours, Thomas dug up two buckets he had brought, one of which was all meat dug out by oysters.

He looked at Tom again, although the bucket was full, but the lord had told him several times not to pick up some things, but he went to pick them up.

He thought it was different, even though it was the same insect.

Stupid enough.

As for Jesse, you can ignore that he was drenched in sweat, and the bucket had just passed the bottom. A few fat shrimps - Lord says they are skinny shrimps, like a few sticks, which seem to be called bamboo chops.

He lowered his bucket filled with oyster meat, raised his chest and awaited Lord's examination.

……

On horseback, most of the time under the coconut tree, Na 'l Lester, looked at it almost noon, the sun was already hot, so he called a halt to this sea rush experiment.

Walk over on a horse and look at every bucket.

“Tom, pests and seafood, you have to work hard to distinguish, not every kind of seaside thing, you can eat. If it's poisonous, it's poisonous. ”

Tom lowered his head in shame: "I'm sorry, sir, I'm too stupid to tell. ”

“It's okay, Tom, for the first time, it's normal not to feel guilty for not having experience.” Lister reassured me, turning to Jesse's bucket, "Well, Jesse, I can see your diligence, but obviously, the way I taught you, you didn't learn to use it. ”

“Master, I dig hard, but I dig all the time, and the hole disappears.” Jesse said in panic.

“You need to dig in the direction of the hole. ”

“I... I can keep digging here, sir, I can definitely dig full buckets. ”

“If you stay here, nobody picks water in the castle, Jesse, and I don't blame you, digging shrimp and bamboo noodles is not an easy thing in itself. ”

Finally, Lester walked up to Thomas' bucket, one full of oyster meat and the other full of bucket crabs, rainbows, etc.

“Well done, Thomas. ”

“Thank you, sir, for the compliment. This is what I'm supposed to do. I do my best for him.” Thomas smiled.

Lester echoed an aristocratic smile, expressing his affirmation of Thomas - who, of course, knew what Thomas had in mind, and Carter Butler had told him that Thomas had ambitions. But as a lord, he didn't care, because Thomas was more ambitious and just wanted to be the housekeeper of the castle.

If he was capable, Old Carter couldn't do it, so what if Thomas became the butler?

No servant could turn the sky before him.
