The next morning.

The sound of birds singing came from the woods in the distance.

"Uh." Jack woke up.

My mood was ups and downs yesterday.

I thought I wouldn't sleep.

But unexpectedly, Jack fell asleep very early.

When I woke up again, it was already Qingming and it was just lightning.

Sitting up in the haystack, Jack found the broken carriage parked on a grass. The old wild horse was chewing the grass with his head down and his mouth was filled with blue juice.

At this time, the farmer Bailey slept in a large piece of sheepskin and snored strangely, and there was a wooden bonnet next to him, which was blazing with fire.

Where is this?

"Papa." A black crow suddenly swayed his wings from mid-air and flew down onto the railing of the broken carriage.

"Little Hei!"

Jack's eyes showed joy and immediately recognized the other person.

"ya!" Black Crow tilted his head and looked at the little master, as cold and calm as usual.

"You are still loyal and planning to accompany me to Tiexiang Fort?"

Jack looked at the other person and reached out to caress the little guy.

Xiao Hei nodded slightly, but did not resist.

It allowed the other party to caress his forehead, looking quite obedient.

"Dad is back? Are mom and the others okay?"

Jack looked at the other person happily and asked in a low voice.

From a long time ago, he knew that Xiao Hei had a high IQ and could understand their words.

"Wow—" Black Crow opened his mouth and waved his wings.

Obviously, this little guy is responding to the little master's words.

Hear this answer.

Jack smiled and thought to himself that it would be fine if there was nothing wrong at home.

Xiao Hei came here because he was afraid that he would worry too much, right?

Jack felt again.

Xiao Hei is really spiritual!

He had just entered the Demon Mountain to learn hunting. Once he got lost in the deep forest and couldn't find his direction. Seeing the sun was about to set and the vast fog was coming, Xiao Hei actually appeared magically.

He also took him to find his father and successfully escaped and went down the mountain to go home.

"Xiao Hei, you are really my lucky star."

Jack said to the little guy.

Although crows are often regarded as ominous by the world, Xiao Hei has always brought him good luck.

"Hey? Are you awake?" the middle-aged man on the grass sat up and asked in confusion.

Farmer Bailey spread his arms and exclaimed, and his hands rudely kneaded his soft face.

My face was swollen, and I didn't sleep well last night.

When the farmer just woke up.

Xiao Hei swayed his wings and quickly flew up.

It landed on the nearby treetops and stared calmly at the view on the carriage below.

"Uncle Bailey, I'm sorry to wake you up." Jack hurriedly lowered his head.

He was severely educated by his mother since he was a child, and he should be humble and friendly to older people and not be arrogant.

"It's okay, let's continue to set out!"

The two continued to get on the carriage and rushed to the road.

The next journey is mountain road.

There are few architectural villages around.

Apart from encountering a gang of businessmen on their way, it is difficult to see any figure.

Xiao Hei flew with him all the way, and sometimes he fell down halfway and played with the boy.

Jack was in a much better mood.

He looked at the increasingly vast green grass in the carriage.

He felt a sudden enlightenment in his heart!

A slightly cool breeze kept blowing across his cheeks, and the unheated sunlight shone on his body.

Jack's eyes shine slightly!

He always held the cross sword left by his father, looking full of energy.

Even on a rough road.

He could even feel that he was embarking on a new life...

The next afternoon.

A broken carriage came to a fortress building with black bricks and tiles.

This fortress is large and spectacular, divided into magnificent styles.

After passing the suspension bridge, you can see a giant ivory standing on both sides of the front of the iron gate. I don’t know if it was a handicraft or it was actually taken from some giant creature.

Is this Iron Elephant Fort?

Jack stood silently beside the carriage, observing the situation around him:

There were soldiers wearing silver armor walking on the city walls and around the ground, looking serious as if they were patrolling and standing guard.

These are knight guards, soldiers who have not yet entered the official knights and are responsible for defending the castle.

Traveling through such a long time.

This is the first time Jack has come to such a strict place.

Uncle Bailey talked to a guard who looked at the young boy and shouted loudly.

"Come with me!"

Jack felt a little nervous when he heard this, he got off the carriage and ran over with small steps.

"Child, you have to take good care of yourself!"

Uncle Bailey waved to him and drove in the carriage to the other direction.

He is just responsible for sending people over.

Now I have to go to the market to sell crops in the city, so I don’t have time to stay for more.

"Dada..." Jack followed the male guard into the Iron Elephant Castle.

The black stone steps around are clearly layered, and the road surfaces on the road are basically paved with broken pebbles, winding and long.

Following behind the scenes.

Jack kept his head down as he walked, and of course he was curious about what it looked like in the castle.

However, he does not want to be considered a rural child who is not polite.

While walking, he carefully observed the surrounding environment.

Every five steps you will encounter a knight attendant standing guard, and every ten steps you will encounter a tall green tree...

Jack can discover another special situation!

These knight attendants have the ivory head logo of the Michel family on their swords and equipment, and the color is light gold.

I walked for more than half an hour.

Jack came to the relatively remote wooden house area.

He could see that there were many soldiers chatting and fighting.

Many people were running around with their upper bodies shirtless. There were probably hundreds of people, but they thought they were soldiers who had been recruited for a while.

Some people looked at the boy with strange eyes, looking jealous and unpleasant.

They seemed to say in their expressions: Why is he so handsome!

"Okay, you can wait here for a while."
