MTL - A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees-Chapter 129 three letters

  Chapter 129 Three Letters

  …

  「Hello, Toriya.

  I am Lumière.

  I'm sorry that you can't help me keep the Oak Chamber of Commerce in bloom..."

  …

  After only scanning three lines, Matthew felt his scalp go numb.

  Lumiere's handwriting is not very good-looking, but it can be seen that he should be writing very seriously, and every word is written very clearly.

  But the large number of typos and loopholes in the grammar made Matthew, who is good at picking the key points from spam, a little confused.

  Matthew worked hard to distinguish for a long time, and with the help of the two spells of "Language Proficiency" and "Text Word Order Recognition", he gradually translated the encrypted letter into a smooth and readable content.

  …

   "Hi Matthew.

  I'm Lumière.

  I'm sorry that I can no longer continue to help the Oak Chamber of Commerce.

  After you left, I tried to lead more people to Kordo City, but this move was strongly rejected by the people of Kordo City.

  We were kicked out.

  Because of the past aggressiveness of the Headhunter tribe, the aborigines of the Gold Coast are not very friendly to us.

  Mr. Yu Lian has tried his best to mediate, but it seems that the effect is not great.

  In the end we had to go back to the rainforest.

   Fortunately, the Oak Chamber of Commerce has not been implicated. This is the only thing that makes me feel relieved.

  Kordo City can't accommodate us, we can only find another way out.

  This incident made me realize that it is not feasible to take all the people out of the rainforest at once. I have to find out a reproducible path for them.

  The south is not the way out, the west is barren desert and high mountains, and the east is the sea.

  I can only go north alone.

   After leaving the rainforest, I have been to several cities.

   But those cities are more or less repelling the Jango, such as Zeshui City.

  When I passed by Zeshui City, I also got a plague. I had a stomachache for two days, and I stripped all the leaves on the side of the road.

   Fortunately, I have a good physique, so I carried it over.

   I've since planned to go further.

  I want to go to a place where people don't know the Jango people, slowly assimilate into their society, and learn their knowledge and way of life.

at the same time.

  I also have to work hard to make money.

  By the time I left the rainforest, maybe six or seven girls told me they were pregnant.

   This is of course great news.

  How could the future king of the rainforest not have a bunch of heirs?

  They are going to inherit my throne!

   Even though I don't have a throne right now, I'm working on building one for them!

   The cost of child support is actually not an unsolvable problem. It doesn’t cost much to raise a child in the tribe.

   What's more, in the tradition of the Black Banyan tribe, the children born to the woman are raised by the uncles together.

   But I don't like this tradition.

  I prefer to let the father of the child bear the cost and responsibility of raising the child, like you northerners.

  I spent a lot of money on tribal elders.

   I gave the rest of the money to my women.

  The money you gave me is almost spent.

   So I headed north along the coast looking for suitable work.

   This is not an easy task.

  I failed to master the skills to make a living in society, so I could only sell coolies.

  Many places that employ workers see me as a foreigner, and will deliberately lower the price.

  I worked as a porter at the pier of Deep Blue Harbor for three days.

   As a result, when the bill was finally settled, the other party only paid half of my salary.

  I was so angry that I really wanted to throw that fat guy in the sea to feed the fish.

   But think of my people, my women, my unborn children.

  I chose to swallow my breath.

   I remembered the guy's face.

  The future king of the rain forest is definitely not easy to bully!

  I swear I will soak him in a dungeon for three days and three nights!

   There will be such a day.

  …

  After leaving Deep Blue Harbor, I walked along the inland path for a while, and I happened to hear news about recruiting workers in a tavern, and their salaries were very high. I tried it and found that it was really good there!

  I am writing to you right now from this working layer called "Blackrock Mine".

  The work here is hard work, but the pay is really good.

  I work 15 hours a day, the most is 19 hours.

   You can earn 4 gold at ordinary times, and 6 gold at most.

  The welfare in the mine is excellent, and food and housing are included.

  I calculated that as long as I work here for a year, I can save almost 2000 gold!

   Five years is 10,000 gold!

  My God!

  This is really a good place to make money.

  I can't wait to share this news with my people.

  It's a pity that there is no correspondence in the place where they live, and I have nowhere to share my joy. At this time, I thought of you, my friend Matthew!

  I think it's time to write you a letter.

  For apology, but also for sharing joy.

  Unfortunately, my command of the common language is not very good. The first half of this letter was also written under the guidance of the supervisor's wife.

  By the way, I forgot to tell you.

  The foreman in the mine was very kind to me and never whipped me, but I often saw him whip other people.

   I guess it's because other people are always lazy.

  The overseer's wife was also very kind to me. Not only did she teach me to read and write the common language, but she always invited me to visit her house when I was out of the mine.

I do not dare to go.

  The current six or seven child support payments have made me feel a little bit strenuous.

  I must restrain myself.

  In comparison, the relationship between me and my colleagues is not very harmonious.

  They said I broke the rules.

  Hehe, how ridiculous, obviously they are lazy and unwilling to work.

  What the supervisor said clearly——

  Why don’t they understand the principle of more pay for more work?

   No more talking.

I'm going to go to bed.

   Try to get up early tomorrow, do a few more hours of work, and **** off those lazy people!

   (Finally, I’m sorry again that I promised to help the Oak Chamber of Commerce, but I couldn’t do it.)

   (This letter has been written back and forth for two weeks, if there is any word order out of order, please point it out and send it back and forth, thank you)”

  …

   After reading.

   Matthew was silent for a minute.

  There are too many slots in this letter, but when you think about it in detail, it happens to be so reasonable.

  This made him feel mixed feelings.

   It is not surprising that the Jango people were rejected by the people of Kordo City. Not everyone can accept the barbaric habits of the people in the rainforest.

  If Matthew was there when this happened, there might be wiggle room.

   But now the dust has settled.

  Matthew felt a little regretful.

  As for Lumière's letter that "Yu Lian has tried his best to mediate", Matthew doesn't believe it at all.

   This incident might be the work of that black-bellied Sioux!

  But it is impossible for Matthew to turn against Yu Lian because of this kind of thing.

   After all, he is just a friend of Lumiere.

  Lumiere is the future king of the rainforest, and the fate of the Jango people is in their own hands.

   What Matthew can provide is at most a little advice and help within his ability.

  The content of this letter really made him overwhelmed.

   It’s the part where Lumiere went north to work and lamented the high wages and good benefits of the mine all the way.

   "The wharf in Deep Blue Harbor is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. The porters you meet in just a few steps may be the bosses of the fourth and fifth ranks."

  Matthew shook his head secretly.

  The east coast is indeed a prosperous place full of luxury and luxury. In front of it, there is an orc swordsman who moves bricks at the wharf, and in the back there is a king of the rainforest who goes down to mine.

   Matthew's first reaction was to write a letter, asking Lumiere to come to Rolling Stone Town, and arrange for him a job in the league.

   But soon, he stopped the thought.

  Matthew played with the quill in his hand, with a thoughtful look in his eyes:

   Lumière is not Eli.

  Although he doesn't know much about human society, he is actually very smart and possesses a strong insight ability.

  I once clearly gave him the address of Rolling Stone Town.

  Lumiere has traveled so far north. If he really wants to ask himself for help, it should not be difficult for him to walk a few more steps to Rolling Stone Town.

  He is not a face-saving person either.

  The reason why I didn’t come to find myself is probably the following reason—

  He wanted to continue to get along with Matthew on an equal footing as a friend.

  Matthew recalled that when he arranged for Lumiere a position in the Oak Chamber of Commerce, the other party refused in every possible way, asking for no salary, and only said that he would come to help.

   This is obviously not vanity at work.

   Lumière has his own obsessions.

   It is precisely because of this persistence that he is unwilling to go to Matthew even if he goes down to mine in silence and works for others.

   No matter how little money you earn, no matter how hard you work, at least when you face your friends, you won’t feel short by three points.

   This is the spirit of the future king of the rainforest.

   Figured out where the joints are.

  Matthew picked up a pen and began to write a reply.

  He shared with Lumiere his life in Rolling Stone Town with a few strokes, and gently reminded him of the safety hazards of going down to work, and then talked about some suggestions for the future development of the Jango people.

  In the letter, he tried his best to avoid using advanced vocabulary, and only communicated with Lumière in very colloquial content.

   Only at the very end of the letter.

  Matthew hinted very euphemistically that Lumière had some resources and contacts in the league.

  If he needs, I can arrange work for him at any time.

  This is to avoid misunderstanding the other party’s thoughts—

   What if Lumière really didn't expect to go to him?

   Finished writing the reply.

   Matthew took a break and opened the second letter.

   Unexpectedly.

  Lorraine's letter this time is very brief.

  …

  「"Catch the Wind and Shadow" told me that there will be big events happening in Rolling Stone Town or its surroundings recently!

   I don’t know the details, please pay more attention to the surrounding abnormal news!

  I'll be there as soon as I can, if you need help, light this feather and sweetie will take you away! "

  …

  Is something big going to happen in Rolling Stone Town?

   Matthew's heart tightened.

   Lorraine is a demigod and a legendary poet. I have seen his various miraculous performances.

  If the other party is not lying, things will be troublesome.

  Matthew held the letter, thought for a while, and decided to share the news with Rega and Zeller when he went to work today.

  Hiding the sweet girl's feathers, Matthew adjusted his mood, took a sip of water, and then slowly opened the beautiful envelope with a green border.

   What catches the eye is a line of graceful and timeless handwriting.

   is in stark contrast to Lumiere's dog crawling.

   Matthew suddenly felt the spring breeze blowing on his face, and his spirit improved a little.

  …

   "Dear Matthew:

  Exhibition letter is like meeting.

The Jade Cangting in May looks like a ball of fire from a distance. The ancient city walls are covered with brightly colored "brocade phoenix flowers". It's like a divine bird fluttering its wings.

   This scene is beautiful.

  It's a pity that my drawing skills are not good enough, and my writing ability is not good enough, so I can't fully share this beautiful scenery with you.

  This is really a pity.

  Phoenix phoenix is ​​a bright yellow or orange-red flower.

  In early summer, it is covered with every corner of Jade Cangting.

  Wood elves use its roots as medicine, boil it with water and take it, it is said that it can cure all diseases.

  I tried it, and it turned out to be really effective, and it didn’t even hurt much when it came.

  I like this flower more, and I am also interested in the "phoenix" in the name of the flower.

  Terani told me that human beings have great misunderstandings about phoenixes. They always confuse "phoenix" with "phoenix", but they are actually two kinds of creatures.

  Thousands of years ago, the wood elves summoned a phoenix from the east in the royal court of the previous generation.

Shenfeng possesses incredible power and compassion to save all living beings (Note: The word "compassion" is an elf language, I couldn't find a similar word in the common language of mankind, I hope it's not because I didn't take the language class seriously, it should be A word from the East, please correct me if there are any mistakes or omissions).

  At that time, the divine phoenix was seriously injured, and the wood elves let him recuperate in the city, and took good care of him.

  Hundreds of years later.

   Only then did Shenfeng regain his health.

   After that, he became the patron saint of the wood elves for a time.

  According to records, the divine phoenix once guarded the court of the elves until a thousand years ago.

   As he departed, he said to the wood-elves:

  ‘My hometown is being invaded by demons, I must go back and help them. '

   After speaking, He flapped his wings and flew high, disappearing into the eastern sky.

  Before parting, the divine phoenix sprinkled tens of thousands of flames on the elf royal court.

  After these flames fell to the ground, they ignited a plant called "Jinse Flower" on the side of the road, and burned a brand new "Jinse Phoenix Flower".

  The wood elves believe that the phoenix flower represents the blessing of the phoenix.

  So even after the royal court was replaced, these plants were still planted inside and outside the city walls.

   This is really a romantic story.

  Every year at this time, the elf lovers will make wishes on the Phoenix flower on the city wall, and that scene is actually very beautiful——

  If there is no trace of the dead that kills the scenery.

  …

  I used the method you taught me to be honest with Telani.

   But she is a very paranoid person.

  She promised that she would not force me and would give me freedom, but she still came to me from time to time.

  She is really domineering—

   There were several times when she wanted to secretly kiss my face, but after I rejected her, she wanted to force it. Fortunately, I was strong enough, so she never succeeded.

   But she respects me most of the time.

  With the presence of Telani, I no longer get those harassments during class or between classes.

  But soon I found that I was completely alone.

   Except Terrani.

   No elf wants to talk to me.

  Teachers too.

  They avoided me after they had done their duty in class.

   This feeling of being isolated from everyone is really bad.

  I feel more and more that following my father's advice to study here is a mistake.

  After two months of hard practice.

   My dancing is still number one.

  Swordsmanship is still the last one.

   There is no difference from two months ago.

  Uh, there is still a difference. Yesterday I found that I gained a pound of weight. It may be because I ate too much elf barbecue recently.

   Next, I am afraid that I will use my vegetarian diet for half a year to offset the debt of eating meat for the past two months.

  …

   Matthew.

   I miss Rolling Stones.

  Yesterday, when I wrote letters to my father, mother, and younger brothers, I secretly cried several times.

  I want to say to my father:

   "Take me back, I don't want to learn Elf Swordsmanship anymore."

  I want to tell my mother:

   "Admonish father, I would rather go home and study oriental embroidery with you, than continue dancing with a thick chest wrap."

   But what finally fell on the paper was nothing more than "I am fine here, dancing is my forte, and I practice swordsmanship very well" and so on.

   I know my father spent a lot of money.

   Part of this is my future dowry.

  I can't waste too much money at home.

   So I can't do it halfway.

   But it's really hard, Matthew, I can't take it anymore.

  Who can tell me how to learn swordsmanship that will cause adverse effects if the posture of holding the sword exceeds 2 cm?

   Write here.

  The green dragon outside the city is calling again.

  I'm sick of that Fatina guy.

  She should be dealing with the elves' Shadow Leopard troops and Windchaser troops now. Telani said that she is very cunning and won't attack the city easily, but I'm still a little scared.

  The Academy of Astrologers has declared this year to be the Year of the Dragon.

   That's a giant dragon.

   Whenever I conceive the image of a dragon in my mind, I feel very small.

  Jade Cangting is really not a good place.

  If it was Rolling Stone Town, there would definitely not be such terrible things as giant dragons, right?

   Definitely yes.

  This letter can only be written here. Tomorrow is the sword test. If I can barely pass, I can learn the magic of Sword Wing.

   I hate swordplay.

   But I am looking forward to the magic called "Summoning Familiar".

   I heard that after learning it, I can summon a messenger for myself, so that it will be very convenient to communicate with Rolling Stone Town.

  By the way, at the end of the letter, I want to ask you one thing.

  Although it’s hard to say, but because I haven’t received a reply to the letter I sent home last time, and I’m not sure whether my father and mother have received my request for help, I can only hope for you—

  My chest wrap wears out quickly during practice and is completely worn out by now.

   Wood elves don't have the right size for me here.

  No one is willing to change it for me.

  I hope you can go to a clothing store called "Ruth Tailor" in Rolling Stone Town, buy some for me, and buy a few more. I want silk, and the size is S8.

  I hid a piece of gold paper in the middle of the envelope, which should be enough to cover the cost.

please!

   Matthew.

  —Your Beanna, on May 2, in Jade Cangting. "

  …

  After reading it.

  Matthew was silent for half a minute.

   After a while.

  He called Peggy from the kitchen:

   "Do you know anything about chest wraps?"

  Peggy proudly raised her chest:

   "Of course, I have **** after all!"

  Matthew nodded and said:

   "Then go buy some for me, remember to ask for silk, the size is S8."

  Peggy looked at Matthew in surprise.

   half a day.

  She asked hesitantly:

   "How do you know my size?"

   "You still want to buy me a chest wrap?"

   "Am I being too explicit?"

  …

Morning.

  Matthew just entered the lord's hall, ready to share Lorraine's news with the other two.

  Unexpectedly, Rhaegar greeted him with one sentence:

   "The war has begun!"

  …
