Chapter 2

The bareheaded squire was very comfortable listening to the children's arguments that had not changed day after day. At present, only these naive children can make him comfortable.

Around several streets, the bareheaded squire came to the central stone house. The stone house is the largest building in the manor, with a distance of more than 100 steps and more than 30 steps. There is not only a restaurant, but also a storage room for weapons and equipment, as well as a room that can accommodate enough squires and squire servants.

Pushing open the wooden gate in the center, the bareheaded squire went in, and a ray of sunshine shone along the gate, making the dim hall a lot brighter.

In the middle of the hall is a long table, facing the door. There is only one chair at the northernmost end, with six on the left and six on the right.

The bareheaded squire directly chose his right hand. While the bareheaded squire was meditating, bursts of footsteps sounded from the channel on the right side of the living room. Soon, the small door on the wall opened and several tall Knight squires came out. They were dressed in neat gowns, or hung with swords, swords, axes and spears.

Among them, the lowest height is more than six cubits, and the highest is seven cubits, but if they stand with the bareheaded squire, they must be at least one cubit shorter.

According to the baldheaded squire, one elbow in the world is equivalent to 30 cm in the previous life. He is more than eight cubits tall, equivalent to about 2.4 meters in the previous life. Stand in front of these dwarfs and flip them to the ground with a finger on their forehead.

Of course, this is just the wishful thinking of the bald squire. Even the weakest of these squires can fight with him for a long time before they are defeated.

Ten tough men came out of the small door. They were the old knight's attendants. Like the bald attendants, they came to serve the old knight and obey the old knight's orders after preparing their own armor, horses, weapons and servants according to the rules of the Empire. So as to get the guidance of the old knight in order to become a real knight. He even dreamed of getting a manor with the help of the contacts left by the father or grandfather of the old knight.

Ten retinues were seated around, and a total of 11 retinues, including bald retinues. According to imperial rules, a knight who owns a manor can train twelve Knight attendants at the same time. The Knights without manor can only train three squires. This gap is caused by the existence of the manor.

"Maybe the old knight couldn't get enough of twelve Knight guards at the same time in his life. It's a pity that his three sons lost their lives while training with other knights, otherwise he wouldn't be like this." looking at the last empty chair, the bareheaded guard couldn't help thinking of the news that the old knight got the news that his youngest son was killed when fighting with the mob two years ago, He fell ill all of a sudden and has not recovered until now.

According to the regulations of the Latour Empire, if a knight's son wants to become a knight, he must go to other knights for training, but cannot follow his father for training.

The Empire did this just to let the skills of knights communicate with each other, so as to further increase the strength of knights. Never wanted to let the old knight lose three sons.

They sat quietly in their chairs without talking. About a quarter of an hour later, an old man dressed as a housekeeper came in from the outside.

After standing by the first chair, the old housekeeper shook his hands, took out a piece of animal skin paper from his arms and spread it on the table. He hoarse said, "from today on, the squire kukas will master the patrol of the manor territory." here, the old housekeeper paused a little and looked aside at the bald squire.

"Follow the orders of the knight." the bald squire straightened up and followed the squire's etiquette. After the old housekeeper nodded with satisfaction, he sat down. Kukas is the name of the bald man in this world, and his name in his previous life is Li Song.

Then the old housekeeper read another ten appointments, corresponding to another ten knights and squires. These squires have mastered defense, patrol in the manor, and guard with weapons and armor. After some appointment, except that the finance was controlled by the old housekeeper, the important things in the manor were controlled by 11 squires.

"The knight is very worried about you, but in order to let you exercise in advance, he still decided to put these things under your control for the time being. I hope you can put aside your prejudices and cooperate with each other to maintain the knight manor." the old housekeeper reached all appointments with a trembling voice, narrowed his eyes and looked at the eleven Knight attendants.

"We will complete the knight's appointment and will never live up to his hope."

In the past two years, most of the time, the old housekeeper came to the living room to announce things to the public, so they didn't doubt whether the old housekeeper's life was wrong. It's really not good. People can collectively find the old knight and ask him face to face.

The old housekeeper nodded with satisfaction and motioned the squires to have dinner. After that, he shook his body and walked towards a courtyard behind the stone house. It is the place where the old knight recuperates. Unless there is something important, the squires usually don't go there to disturb the old knight.

There was silence all the way. Kukas, the bald headmaster, was not angry with several other squires, and the other squires were not angry with each other. In this manor, the squires seldom talk to each other unless necessary.

Along the stone house corridor into the restaurant, a wide restaurant with 12 long tables. Each table can accommodate five people.

Kukas sat at the table by the window. He was alone, because he had no servants to help him wear armor and take care of horses in the manor. The other knights and squires were followed by four servants. However, the servants did not dare to eat with their master. Instead, they would not eat some leftovers until the master ate.

More than three pounds of meat, ten pieces of palm sized white bread, two cubits long thick ham, a turkey and a small bucket of milk. These are kukas's breakfast.

He threw aside the knives and forks on the table, grabbed a piece of bread, stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it. The huge palm makes ordinary people look normal, and the bread seems a little small in his hand.

With one hand, he grabbed the bread and meat, and with the other hand, he grabbed the small wooden bucket that could hold three pounds of milk and ate it. Occasionally stop and tear the meat on the turkey, which is also convenient to eat.

Although it was winter, kukas still made sweat roll down his cheeks on his bald head. He didn't care about it either. After wiping it with a soft cloth, he continued to struggle with the food in front of him.

Some of the other knights and squires cut food with knives and forks very elegantly, while others dealt with the food in front of them as rough and crazy as kukas. No one laughed, and there was no sense of servant, showing an expression of contempt.

Kukas ate half of the food more than other knights and squires. Even there were no bones on the turkey plate. All the food was eaten by the bald man.

"The food is still a little small. It seems that we should let the kitchen add some more tomorrow." licked the greasy around his big mouth, kukas stood up satisfied and walked outside.

"Kukas, you should control your appetite, or the women in the kitchen will think you increase their workload and complain about you." a blond Knight Hu gracefully put down his knife and fork, wiped the corners of his mouth with a soft cloth and whispered.

The bald man gave each other a white look. He didn't bother to pay attention to the blonde, because he often said so since the blonde found that he ate more food than others.

After slamming the door of the dining room, kukas walked towards the stable with an angry face. He wants to ride a war horse and practice Knight skills outside the manor.

"Damn boy, according to the rules, you have been in this manor for four and a half years. In another six months, whether you become a knight or not, you have to leave the manor. The day you leave the manor is the day of your death." kukas slapped his bald head. He hated the squire very much, but the strength of the squire is similar to him, There is little certainty that you want to defeat and kill him head-on.

Therefore, I came up with the idea of taking advantage of the other party's happy or sad psychology and spending the least effort to kill the other party after the end of the five-year squire period.
