Chapter 20

It was late at night, but the enthusiasm of the villagers remained unabated. In particular, they had not been so full and happy for a long time, which made the villagers temporarily forget the plight of the village. Some children jumped with the beating of the fire.

When the children around them saw it, they gradually joined in and danced with the fire happily. Let's call it dance. Slowly, some adults gradually joined in when they saw that the children were so happy. Now it has become a group of people dancing around the campfire.

It seems that some things are really self-taught. No one can learn a lot of knowledge from nature. This may be the unity of heaven and man that Taoism has been pursuing.

Nord didn't want to disturb the interest of the villagers, so he said hello to Abel, then turned away from the square and returned to his room. What happened today, Nord had to be dangerous for 20 years in his previous life. Nord grew up safely in the 21st century. He grew up in a peaceful country, a peaceful period, and worked hard with people with real knives and guns, For the first time in these two lives, Nord felt a little tired. Soon after lying in bed, he immediately fell asleep.

The next morning, Nord woke up from his deep sleep. Nord slept soundly last night and didn't have nightmares about yesterday's battle. It seems that this is good news, indicating that Nord has slowly adapted to this cruel era.

After a simple clean-up, Nord went downstairs. He still used the refined salt that Abel bought on the road to clean his teeth. Who knows the taste of gargling with salt? The conditions are so hard, and he can't ask too much.

After simply eating some barbecue and bread prepared by Molly downstairs, Nord came to the training ground in the yard.

Unexpectedly, I found that reed was also on the training ground and had been training for some time, so I went up to say hello to him.

"Reed, why are you training today?"

"I train every day. Just now my father and big brother went out with Abbot to build the manor. I stayed for training without taking me."

Looking at Reed who was complaining in front of him, Nord didn't think so. The lively reed must be busy. Don't worry about going to the construction site for the time being. Let's train for a while first.

"You are my Herald now. They certainly won't let you follow. What if I want to find the herald and can't find it, so you should stay within three meters of me and be on call."

"Ah?"

Reed showed a bitter gourd face and looked wrongly at Nord. It turned out that it was so. No wonder big brother asked himself to wait for Lord Nord.

"Lord Nord, what are you going to do now?"

"Cut the crap and train first."

After that, Reid ignored the sad face and began his own training. At present, he mainly focuses on training his fencing and his pace in battle.

After a long time, Nord was already sweating. He looked at Reed standing beside him, bored, and an idea flashed in his heart.

"Reed, let's compete!"

"Ah? But Lord Nord..."

Reed didn't react for a moment and a half. He hesitated and was at a loss. Nord motioned him not to care, let go and train well.

In order to dispel Reed's hesitation, Nord took the initiative to attack reed with a wooden sword, and reed slowly let go of his hands and feet during the battle.

For a time, the two were fighting with equal strength. It can be seen that reed's basic skills are very solid, but his attributes are estimated to be inferior to Nord. Therefore, it is difficult to parry Nord's wooden sword, so he can only rely on his flexible steps to avoid Nord's attack.

Nord couldn't help Reid for a while. Although the attack and defense can rely on the original muscle memory, the pace of combat is somewhat lacking. After all, this needs to test the combat experience. If it weren't for the two people attacking the enemy yesterday, I'm afraid Nord would have explained it with Nord's three legged cat's pace and combat experience.

Knowing his shortcomings, Nord patiently honed his pace and carefully observed how Reid responded and how he should finish to better attack.

Nord was gradually immersed in training, which made Reid bitter. He had to concentrate on Nord's increasingly skilled attack. The last one accidentally fell to the ground by Nord, so he stayed on the ground and pretended to be dead. Nord shook his head and smiled.

"Well, today's training is settled. Let's go to the construction site in the north."

When reed heard this, he got up and looked at Nord with a smile, pretending that nothing had happened.

Just as Nord was going out, another system message flashed in front of him.

[after hard training, your one handed weapon proficiency has increased by 3 points]

[defeat the opponent and gain 10 experience points]

Nord was surprised that training could really increase proficiency, and competition could also increase experience. Nord couldn't help looking at reed with inexplicable brilliance in his eyes until reed looked a little uncomfortable. He wondered if I had done something wrong again?

Regardless of what reed thought, Nord had regarded him as an experience bag and had to brush it every day. After thinking clearly, Nord no longer hesitated and rushed to the construction site with reed.

Although after yesterday's lively scene, the village is still a little quiet today. There are only some carefree children running around without seeing the villagers.

On the way, Nord found that his daily tasks had been updated.

[daily task: explore the mountains and forests]

[mission Description: the mystery of the yamong mountains attracts you deeply, and the rich resources in the mountains and forests make you salivate. Go to the mountains and forests to find out. I think you can't wait to explore the mountains and forests within a radius of ten miles.]

[task reward: experience × 100 bread × 10 kinsers × 10】

It's also an exploration task. Nord thinks the daily task is still very simple, and the rewards are very rich. He also plans to go around the mountains in a few days. He happens to do the task together, and the bread promised to the guard has been found.

To the north of the village, many villagers gathered on the construction site. No wonder I couldn't see anyone in the village just now. They were all here.

Looking at the enthusiastic attitude of the villagers, Nord was a little ashamed. The villagers reveled until midnight last night and came here early this morning to help Nord build the manor, but Nord himself woke up naturally and slowly rushed over.

After seeing Nord, Abel and Colin went to Nord and reported today.

"Lord Nord, today I went to inform the villagers to help you build the manor. All the villagers can come, and everyone is enthusiastic."

"Master Nord, the salary is 10 copper shells a day for each family, plus five kilograms of wheat. The grain can last about a month."

Nord nodded, indicating that he knew. Looking at the busy scene, Nord thanked Colin.

"Village head Colin, you have worked hard. Thank the villagers for me, Abel. According to the current situation, how long will the manor be built?"

"At present, we are still cleaning up and leveling the land and preparing some stone and wood. According to the enthusiasm of the villagers, the main work of the manor can be completed in more than a month. After all, the current plan is only a small manor, which can't take much time."
