The Defeated Dragon

Ivan sat on the ground and quickly learned to lie on the ground, resting as much as possible and recovering a little strength. He doesn't know where to go and how long to go.

Each lantern, each lantern.

A whirling sound came from the car.

Ivan didn't get up, he just slowly turned his head and looked at the direction of the sound in the most energy-efficient way. He saw a convoy carrying a flag with a blue bottom and embroidered purple and black flowers. He recognized the flag as an expression of nobility.

Of course, he had no idea which nobleman the flag was.

Just as he looked at the carriage without any thought, the familiar whip sounded again, his body was like a spring mounted, his subconscious came up from the ground, and then stood still —— not only him, but all of us, climbed up from the ground and stood still shaking.

The clerk held the whip and shouted out loud.

Evan doesn't understand.

Soon enough, however, someone shouted in the style of the Eagle Kingdom: "Everyone, line up, follow the paperboy's command, behind each carriage, line up! Don't talk, don't move, stand up! ”

Ivan started to panic.

He didn't know how to stand the team, he didn't stand the team, he saw other people moving, he walked too. Then he got a foot on his ass, and a paperboy scolded him with words he didn't understand.

Seems to have found his face confused.

The clerk pulled him over and stuffed him behind the back of a serf, scolding him again. Then pull the second serf.

The messy team, soon arranged by the clerk, formed six twisted teams.

The flirtatious sapphire walked to the front of the team and for a moment spoke to several seemingly aristocratic people, facing a number of serfs: "You two meals a day, not far from Coral Island, are about to go to where you will live in the future, Flower Town! ”

Ivan, like everyone else, looked at the talker with numbness and had no reaction.

The speaker continued: "The Lord of Flower Town is the blood of the great Tulip family, Lord Lester, and your master from now on! Remember where you will live in the future, Flower Town, Remember your future master, Lester Tulip, the great Tulip family bloodline! ”

The last few words were yelled out in a shouting manner and were very aggressive.

But the serfs below still reacted calmly.

The speaker didn't care at all. He waved his arms and his white hair was chaotic in the wind: "Remember, from now on, you need to speak Serpentine from the Grand Duchy of Sapphire. Of course, you're just a bunch of serfs. Nobody cares if you speak serpentine. But you need to remember, Flowertown, Tulips, Lord Lord! ”

“Now, read these three words with me!” He shouted, "Read these three words accurately and enjoy a wonderful lunch, you understand! ”

Lunch, instant silence, numbness of the team, riots.

Hungry serfs can't stand the stimulus of lunch - they eat only two meals a day on board, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and the rest lie still.

Bold serfs, trembling in response: "Got it, my lord. ”

“Good, now, read to me - Flower Town...”

“Flowertown. ”

“Louder, Flower Town! ”

“Flowertown! ”

Ivan felt hungry and unable to speak, but for his upcoming lunch, he still inspired the little energy left in his body and shouted with others: "Flower Town. ”

The word is not intransigent.

Easy to learn.

After several shouts, he was even a little excited to learn a foreign language.

“Very well, you seem to have mastered the term Flower Town, then, follow me - Tulip..."

“Tulip. ”

“It's tulip, fool, don't hang your tongue and read it again - tulip...”

“Tulip. ”

“Louder, Tulip. ”

“Tulip! ”

“Remember it, though not standard, here, everything on this land is owned by the Tulip family! Your lord, is the blood of the Tulip family!” He who speaks the language, goes on to teach, "Next, you need to understand how to express your loyalty when you see your lord, and you need to kneel down first. ”

Several serfs knelt down as soon as they heard.

Other serfs also knelt down.

Six teams, all on their knees.

The man who spoke was frightened. He was not Lester. He dared not let the serfs kneel down and duck away. “Idiot, not let you kneel down now... You kneel down against the black tulip-like flag on the carriage as if you had met the Lord. Now follow me - Lord..."

“My Lord. ”

Ivan knelt on the ground and shouted to the crowd, trying to keep his tongue straight.

A few times later.

A man who speaks the language, running to a line of noblemen in the vicinity, said in serpentine, “Mr. Gaultai, is this teaching okay? ”

Gorte, dressed in Frak Abier, nodded: "That's where we teach today before lunch, so the serfs can fill their bellies first, and Flower Town is not a place where they can't even afford to eat. Old Grande, thank you for your hard work. I'll need your translator for the serfdom arrangements. ”

"Serving Lord Lordship is Rongxin of Old Grand Tai," said Grand Tai. “Then I'll tell them to eat. ”

Then, facing the serfs who were still on their knees: "You can get up and continue to stand on your own team, and now start distributing lunch, one by one, for everyone's share, no snatching allowed! Otherwise, the whip of the clerk will not have long eyes. ”

Hear what Old Grantham said.

The serfs' restless hearts quickly turned into surprises - there was really lunch!

And then, as the carriage opens, a piece of food they haven't seen, packed in a plate of bread, is delivered to them.

No cutlery such as knives and forks, just food and plate bread.

Ivan got his share of the food, he recognized the plate bread, he used to use the plate bread a lot, he used to use it for a while, cooked it, he could still eat it. There's half a piece of black bread on the plate, and then there's a lot of big, small, round, flat stuff.

Can't bear reaching out and touching, very hard.

I don't know how to eat it.

Luckily, he always sees what others do and does it himself. He sees that, in addition to eating black bread, someone has already opened it and eaten the soft stuff inside.

So he sat on the floor with the plate of bread, first biting the black bread hard. Learn from others, open that thing, it's very easy to open, because there's a crack in it, and you break it up with your hand. Quickly smells a strange fragrance in the nose.

Swallow the bread and Ivan saw several people eat it before he took the courage to bite.

Very soft, almost inlet melted.

He didn't know what it tasted like, but it was delicious, so he stopped tangling and focused on eating his share. Maybe he's hungry too long, and in just a moment, he's eaten all the food. When the last thing with the shell went belly down, it was almost the first time in his life.

Feel what it means to be “full."

At this time, the cry of Old Grande Dai reappeared into Ivan's ear: “Looks like you're all fed up. What a bunch of lucky people. Remember this feeling. From today on, in Flower Town, all you have to do is work hard for the great lord, and you can eat this food every day and eat it! ”

“Ah!”

Ivan heard someone shouting around.

He felt shocked himself - he could eat this food every day and eat it full!

There was a void in my head, and I just had one thought left: "Flowertown, food. ”
