Release that Witch - Chapter 408

[Chapter 401 Winter in the Fjords]

♂,

fjord waters, Sleeping Island.

By the time the last house rose, the skyline had turned yellow.

Although the setting sun could not be seen, the afterglow through the clouds still left a golden light on the sea.

If it weren’t for the gusts of cold wind blowing head-on, such a scene would not look much different from autumn.

“Okay, that’s it.” Lian lifted the scarf around her neck so that her ears could be wrapped in soft cotton wool, “Then just move the furniture and bed in and you can move in.”

“Masterpiece! “Durat Jinxu clapped his palms and said, “It took only half a month to build so many houses. I thought Lady Tilly was just exaggerating at first.”

“Master Tilly never lies.” He Feng Inserted a sentence.

“Yes, yes,” he said, touching his thick double chin. “In this way, I can safely move the people here. Huh? What is this?”

The businessman from Crescent Bay curiously groped in the house The raised fluted low wall, even bent down, poked his head inside and looked back and forth.

“This is a warming thing I learned in the western region. It’s called a fire kang.” Lian explained, “It’s connected to the stove, and as long as there’s a fire over there, the pit will become very warm. Then I’ll put it on it Lay a layer of wood, and put sackcloth or wheat straw on it, whether it is used as a bench or a bed, it is much more comfortable than ordinary furniture—especially in winter.”

“Interesting design,” Durat looked at Lian, “If I hire you for a long time, how many golden dragons do I need?”

“Uh… what do you mean?” Lian was slightly taken aback.

“Go to Crescent Bay to work. There are still a few barren beaches in my territory that have not been developed. Your ability is an excellent helper.” He rubbed his hands and said, “How many golden dragons do you need to pay to Maleficent? Master Tilly will agree to let you follow me?

”

No, I didn’t think about leaving—”

“There, you can live a much better life than this,” Durat interrupted, “you can live in the same compound as me, and you can enjoy wine and game from the four kingdoms every day, To be accompanied by attendants wherever you go—that is the day that many people long for, as long as you serve me, all of this will not be a problem. Besides, didn’t Lady Tilly say that the “Maleficent Curse” will respond to requests, and then I can afford more recruitment fees.

Lian frowned .

She was no stranger to this kind of attitude. She kept saying that she was hired, but in fact it was not much different from buying herself. Just when she wanted to reprimand loudly, He Feng gently pulled her Hand, “Responsiveness does not mean that you must agree, there are some things that witches cannot do, and another point of reaching a contract is that the parties must agree.

”

“You mean it’s not enough for me to pay?”

I’ve never seen such a business,” Dulat said in an unhappy tone, “could it be that the words you said when you prescribed the Maleficent Curse were just to tease us?

Sooner or later, no one will care about this.

”

That’s not necessarily the case,” someone suddenly said behind him, “Whether it’s the Fjords or the Four Kingdoms, the reward guild composed of witches is the only example. If you don’t come to patronize, others will come.”

”

“You are—” the businessman turned his head away, startled, “Master Lei, Lei Ting!

”

I had an idea when “Maleficent” formulated the regulations. Signing the contract requires the approval of the employees in consideration of the possible risks in the mission. They can’t be forced to go with swords and fire,” Lei Ting laughed loudly. “Do you think there is a problem?

”

No…it’s very reasonable,” Dulat’s expression quickly returned to normal, “then… I will trouble you in the future, Miss Lian.”

”

Phew,” Lian heaved a sigh of relief looking at the backs of the businessman and his party leaving, “Thank you.”

”

It doesn’t matter, I just happened to pass by,” Lei Ting smiled, “Didn’t you follow Lady Tilly to the western region?”

”

“Well, but Honey and Zefeng, I came back first, because Sleeping Island needs to prepare supplies and houses for the winter,” she briefly explained the matter, “Have you completed your exploration?”

“Hahaha, that’s right… This is really an incredible journey.” As soon as he talked about the adventure, Lei Ting’s eyes shone brightly, “I saw for the first time that there are completely different levels of sea surface in the sea, and the ship almost seems to be flying. We drove up the cliff formed by the waves, but we didn’t fall into the deep sea! If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe that there are such strange scenes in the world.”

“Sea surface at different heights?” Lian murmured muttered.

What kind of scene is this?

Sea water is not a stone, won’t it flow down?

”

“Well, I named it “Sea Line”, which is just northeast of the Shadow Islands.

After turning up, the cliff is like a long line with no edge, dividing the ocean into two distinct sections.

He patted his chest excitedly, “I can’t wait to try the next longer voyage!”

”

As expected of the most outstanding explorer in the fjords, the first thing he talked about when he came back was adventure, not his daughter who was far away in the west…Lian watched the other party’s eloquence, and shook her head helplessly.

When night fell, outside As the temperature dropped sharply, Lian climbed into bed early—this was also the most relaxing time of the day for her. For more than a month, in addition to building a new batch of houses, she also remodeled the old houses of other witches. Huddled with everyone on the warm heated kang bed, chatting about what I saw and heard in Border Town, answering questions that my partners were sometimes curious and sometimes envious, and chatted casually for most of the night.

This time it was talking about bird kisses Mushroom.

When it comes to putting it in a little butter, tossing it back and forth a few times, frying it until both sides are golden, and then sprinkle some salt powder, it is an extremely delicious dish, and there is a sound of swallowing all around.

“Ah… …I want to eat this too.

“You Ying yelled, “I chewed the dried fish on the boat for a month, and now my mouth is full of salty taste.

”

“That’s great,” Molly couldn’t help pinching Lian, “It would be great if Lady Tilly’s brother invited me.”

“Hey, you haven’t heard of the more amazing thing,” someone laughed Said, “Water comes out of the wall directly when taking a bath there, and there is soap that can make the body smell fragrant after washing.”

“Is there such a thing?” You Ying asked curiously.

“Of course, I brought one back,” Lian pouted, “but it’s already used up.”

“Don’t talk about it, at least they have experienced it. Immediately pick them up, I didn’t enjoy anything!” Hefeng complained.

Listening to the discussions among the witches, an idea suddenly popped up in Lian’s mind.

If His Royal Highness Roland Wimbledon was the one who wanted to “employ him for a long time” instead of Dulat Goldbeard, would he agree?

After thinking about it, she found that if the other party was Roland, she would not be able to say no to it.

What a shame!

Lian shrank back under the quilt, looked around, luckily the oil lamp was blown out now, no one would notice her little thoughts.

But when will Lady Tilly accept His Royal Highness Roland?

It would be great if they could stay together forever… Lian tightened the scarf she held in her arms, so that both herself and other witches could live happily in Border Town.
