Chapter 35: Fire of punishment

Cui Qichao came to the church led by Northumberland. Compared to the thatched cottage, which was covered with thatch, mud and a little wood, it was considered luxurious, and it was covered by stones.

Cui Qichao even felt a little envious after seeing it, because although it is also a high-grade stone house, his castle is too impermeable.

The priest William's house is not far from the church. Today is his sermon when the peasants listen to him. Seeing Cui Qichao

On arrival, William had a very good attitude. Although he did not live in the castle, the Lord Baron would send him a copy of any meat he had made, and he would treat the Lord Baron as himself.

In fact, William also heard about the recent rumors in the manor. There was a thief thief, and the stewards didn't seem to be able to find that thief. There was nothing he could do, so he is going to explain what God said about theft. . Theft of other people's property is a serious crime. Those manures are not animal manure that can be picked up on the ground, or manure pulled by themselves. They are bought by baron master Huadou, which is private property.

However, William was still a little puzzled because there was a chapel in the castle, and the Lord Baron did not need to crowd with these farmers to pray.

Soon William knew that Cui Qichao's servants took out the wheat and meat and put them in the dedication box.

Then the baron asked in front of the peasants: "Pastor, I would like to ask, if a person commits theft without atonement, will he get a bad report?"

This is a very basic doctrine that serfs may not know, but how could a baron as a noble master not know. He asked, in William's understanding, to warn the peasants present and bluff them.

William sighed. How could it be so easy? These farmers seem simple-minded, but they are stupid and smart. If they have a chance, they also know how to take advantage of themselves.

However, William said honestly: "This ... God is full of love for the world, he pityes the good, and punishes the wicked ..." He wanted to hesitate, not right, and explain the consequences of the good and the bad, and what kind of situation might be It is retribution, the trial may be late but not absent, but when I saw Cui Qichao's eyes, thinking of the wheat and meat he brought, he said immediately, "Some are, some are definitely."

"Okay, I believe in God, and I also pray to God, hoping that God will respond to me and give the thief some punishment. Any soil he pours with his booty will be surrounded by the fire of hell," Cui Qichao said piously.

Isn't this the curse of Chiguoguo? William is still very solemn on the surface. "Lord Baron, thank you for your generosity and God bless you."

Cui Qichao sat in the church for a while, and then hurriedly left. His evil black cat was still out because he could not enter.

As soon as I went out, Xiaobai was having a bite of scribbled grass, which was probably about to spit a hairball.

The attendants thought that Master Baron had too much control over the evil black cat, and he dare not run away from it.

Then Master Baron performed another trick that made everyone in the castle breathtaking. He pointed at the cat and said, "Get out."

The black cat rolled on the ground, then walked to the master in front of him, lowered his small head, and the master bent down and curled his neck, and grabbed it.

At this moment, the self-cultivator Mike sitting in the corner inside the church was a little uneasy.

He, along with others, heard the curse of the baron, and his guilty heart shuddered in his calf. If he weren't sitting here, his legs would be soft.

When his wife saw it, she stepped on Mike's bare feet and warned him with his eyes.

Mike exhaled slowly, catching his eldest son in one hand, the eldest son with his head down stiffened, then relaxed, and in silence, they exchanged a comforting look.

That's it, don't be afraid to be judged in the future.

For more than a week afterwards, Mike's mind was filled with the curse of the baron, the cold but decisive, every dragging statement echoed from time to time, he still had to spend his mind to cover up in front of others.

Until the tenth day, Mike went to the field to pluck the grass. He squatted down and saw that the edges of the leaves of a wheat seedling were a little yellow and squinting.

Is this ... is there a bug? Still too hot? No, the weather has been cool recently.

The master's curse flashed in his mind again, but Mike still comforted himself, impossible, no, how could the trial come so fast. His father told him that the lord's wheat, which had been stolen before, was not tried until ten years later-his leg was broken.

Mike panicked until the next day. When he came to the ground, he was even more panicked. The yellowing of the leaves was more obvious, and he even rolled up, and even the stems turned yellow.

Even these wheat seedlings did not grow as quickly as he thought after fertilization. Until now, there were not many plugs with other serfs in the field, because they seemed to be shorter due to burping.

The eldest son also found this scene, showing a terrified expression, "Father ..."

Mike wondered, not paying attention.

The eldest son continued: "Father, look at this ... Doesn't it look like it was burned by fire?"

Mike woke up with a look of extreme fear, that's right, it's true, the curled yellow leaves weren't exactly like a flame.

What does the curse of the master say? The soil that has been poured with swag will be surrounded by the fire of hell!

Mike sat on the field bark and hugged his head.

"Oh my God, what should I do!"

The eldest son hurriedly looked around. Did anyone notice that he helped his father and said, "Father, let's dig out all of them ..."

"Yes, yes." Mike raised his head almost immediately, revealing a look of redemption. That's right, dug up the stolen goods, maybe the trial will end.

But they can't do it immediately, they can only stay until the sun goes down, everyone in the ground is gone, and they even have to beware that they find that many seedlings in the field are not right.

It took Mike a few days to fertilize the land, and now he turned out all the soil all night.

When he went to sleep, he was exhausted and had nightmares after falling asleep.

Even worse than a nightmare is that nightmares come true.

Even if he had dug up the stolen goods, the fire of **** was still killing his crops, and the situation became more and more serious.

I couldn't hide it now, everyone near the place found it.

Everyone widened their eyes, "... Oh my god, Mike's wheat seedlings look like this, it's burnt."

"Do you remember that the Lord said that the land of the thief who stole feces will be burned by the fire of hell? This is God's response to the Lord!"

"Yes, Mike is the **** thief. His family lives near the fat pit!"

"I said, Mike wasn't in good spirits during the day ..."

"Master's prayer works!"

The farmers spread the news with terror and excitement.

The Mikes completely lost their strength and sat on the ground blankly, waiting until Zhuangtou grabbed them and pumped them with a stick, they burst into tears.

Mike was full of regrets. He shouldn't take the fluke to steal the manure of the master!

He wouldn't know that at the moment when his crime was revealed, his face and body were covered by a barrage. Numerous people called him by name and called:

[Fuck Mike! !! !! 】

The onlookers were still a bit jealous before, but now they are gloating, not to mention those who don't hate stealing things, what if their own things are stolen, they show their attitude; "I said long ago, Stealing Master's stuff won't end well! "

...

"Master, the thief who stole the manure has been caught. There is a divine punishment in his land, and the fire in **** has slashed the crops in the field." The steward came to report this with awe.

In this obscurity era, the black cat is the devil's pet, and the weeds are left by the devil. When Cui Qichao's prayer was fulfilled, there was no doubt that everyone thought it was a miracle and there was no doubt at all.

Looking at their lord master again, there was no expression of surprise.

The steward took a sigh of relief from his heart and took a look at this accustomed calmness. This is the relative of the archbishop! Closer to God than ordinary people like them!

Cui Qichao sighed in his heart. In the past few days, the man who stole the feces did not come from behind.

This situation is inevitable.

The reason why he still wanted to hang the serfs for a while is because the composting process is continuous, with new dung and then conserving, and the earliest compost has been used for fertilizing large areas of arable land. It will take some time for the available compost to be composted.

Moreover, fertilizing is not as simple as turning the manure into the soil. The concentration and amount must be suitable, and watering is required.

Mike didn't understand the principle, he didn't paint the tiger according to cats, and even over-fertilized because of greed.

Several diseases occur simultaneously, the cytoplasmic wall of the crop is separated, and severe water loss will cause this state that seems to have been burned. This phenomenon is not called the curse of **** fire, it is called burning seedlings.

It took more than a week from excessive fertilization to obvious symptoms, and Cui Qichao estimates that these days are the same. Sure enough, it was discovered that such a large phenomenon could not hide everyone's eyes. This is not a modern city that is indifferent to each other. In the manor, even a few more eggs in your house will become a bargaining point for others.

The lord lord wants to judge Mike's family in person, and the supervisors have suggested that he should be severely punished, hang him, and then punish his family to become slaves.

Cui Qichao looked at Mike, who was lying on the ground like a snot and crying.

Originally a self-cultivator, he was greedy for a while, and now his family is also involved, and as slaves, there is no possibility of turning over, and he will be linked to future generations.

Cui Qichao sighed, "Do you know what's wrong?"

Mike didn't dare to look up at the lord, crying, "Master, I confess my sins. I shouldn't be greedy!"

Cui Qichao said coldly, "You will be my slaves, and your fields will be mine, do you understand?"

Mike's eyes were hazy and looked up in surprise.

The crime of theft was punished at least by becoming a slave. Besides, he stole so much manure, which led to rumors in the manor. Those supervisors suggested that the master kill him.

Soon, Mike burst into tears again, saying that it was kindness for the master to go out, but it is better to die as a slave!

At this time, Mike did not know that the slaves in the castle were quietly working for the master, but they were not told to them.

This also made the managers even more angry. "Master, please let me express my dissatisfaction. He committed such a great crime. Do you just punish their family as slaves?"

If they were slaves of the past, stewards might still be able to accept them, working from morning till night. But no one in the castle now knows that the slaves are doing artisan work for the master in turn.

"The crops in their fields have been burned to death. This is the judgment that God has given. If I add too much punishment, it is inappropriate." Cui Qichao also had his own reasons.

He feels that punishing these people for free for a few years is already very serious, respects medieval rules, and can serve as a warning. After he left, he would reward all the slaves to be free.

The stewards want to say anything more, but think about the punishment of the fire of hell, no one dares to say that he knows God's will better than the master, and quickly shut up. The steward was afraid that his words were too blunt, and he added a sentence: "You are the wisest."

...

The Mikes did not return to their cabins anymore, they were no longer in possession of their private property and remained directly in the castle.

The housekeeper assigned people to Mike's house and put away their belongings. These belonged to the lord.

Nearby farmers asked about the results of the Mike's house. You see me, I see you, they all said:

"This is the end of the thief!"

"This is what Mike deserves, let him regret it endlessly in the next career!"

As for Mike's land, this was originally leased from the master, and is still being punished. Everyone is wondering if it will be abandoned like this and how long it will take to recover.

At this time, the Lord Lord gave an order to make people transplant the wheat seedlings in the field to other places.

Unexpected things appeared. After transplanting these wheat seedlings into the land of the master, they gradually returned to normal, and even the withered yellow faded.

This is just another proof of divine punishment. Only when the soil of the booty is spilled, the fire of **** will burn, and the clean land of the master will gradually restore the innocent crops.

Even the priest William went to the ground for a long time and confirmed to everyone that this is indeed the writing of God. The bad guys will be judged, and the good guys will not be traced.

William's popularity in Northumberland reached a new peak because of this. People saw his eyes with unprecedented respect, and no serf dared to doze in the church. No matter how tired and sleepy, he had to listen to the priest's sermon.

William also wrote this on parchment and sent it back to the church to show his achievements.

Of course, he did not forget to thank His Excellency the Lord and wrote a letter of thanks to the Archbishop. Although this was a miracle, it would not have happened without the Archbishop and the Lord.

On the other side of Cui Qichao, I heard a letter saying that the crops were back to normal, but still calm. "Okay, the original soil can now be deepened again. If you turn the soil with stolen goods to the top, you can plant it normally. Time to sow. "

For plants that burn seedlings, the most appropriate remedy is to water the plants properly, to hydrate the plants, and it is better if they can be transplanted.

.

Unconsciously, November is coming, and winter is coming. People across the south are slaughtering livestock, using a lot of herbs and salt to make dried meats, cured meats, sausages and more.

It's too cold in winter, and a large number of livestock will be frozen to death. Even Cui Qichao has to submit to the fact that he will have to eat bacon in the next few months, so he is even more concerned about this. Those foods are clean.

Cui Qichao was there from the time he caught the animal. He took Xiaobai and rode to watch the herdsman lead the slave with the shepherd, and rushed the pigs in the forest back to the pen.

Shepherds are now well-trained and know how to cooperate with each other, rushing to block every fork, leading the animals to the direction of the pen.

These pigs have been raised up to now, basically weighing 40 pounds. Cui Qichao looked at it from a distance and praised the sheepdogs. Shepherds do have a high IQ, know that teamwork is not good, but it is true. Many humans in this era do not know this.

Xiao Bai originally squatted on Cui Qichao's shoulder, and saw this scene, can not help but itch. It is also trained as a shepherd cat. Although it has only pastured ducks, is it worse than dead dogs with its mind?

The last time it was pulled away, otherwise it would have scratched the dogs' blood. Xiaobai couldn't hold it. He took off from Cui Qichao, jumped off the horse and ran forward to prepare for a big show.

"Ah, Xiaobai?" Cui Qichao shouted in surprise, "What are you doing?"

Seeing the movement, Da Bai and Da Jue both raised their heads from Cui Qichao's cloak hood, their eyes moved with Xiao Bai's movement, and they looked a little bit nervous.

Xiaobai rushed forward, rushing a crooked free-range pig to the middle.

Only then did Cui Qichao understand that Xiaobai wanted to show his skills. He smiled a little, Xiaobai ...

The smile was not over yet, and Cui Qichao's face suddenly changed. Within the sight, the pig that Xiaobai was running away seemed to lose his temper suddenly, turned back suddenly, a small white arch, and Xiaobai's brake was not enough.

God, Xiaobai was hit by a pig!

Dabai and Tangerine both "meowed" a little, as if scared.

Cui Qichao was so scared that he hurried the horse forward for a while, and got off the horse's back, "Xiaobai ?!"

Xiaobai struggled to get up from the grass, turned around twice, and then ran smartly without any incident, and did not listen to Cui Qichao's call at all.

Cui Qichao: "..."

He touched the white cat and the orange cat, who had been shocked and had no daring to go down, and felt in his heart that Xiaobai was too strong.

Cui Qichao couldn't chase Xiaobai, until the pigs entered, Xiaobai was willing to return, and Cui Qichao grabbed the back of his neck and grabbed him, checking it from beginning to end.

In the Middle Ages, it was much harder than in the 21st century, and he had to pay attention to his words and deeds. In this case, Cui Qichao was more intimate with Xiaobai. If Xiaobai hangs up, he thinks he should not accept it.

"Do you really have a cat with nine lives? Really dead, how can I go to the customer service and say, please revive my cat that was killed by a pig?" Cui Qichao pinched Xiaobai's ear and complained.

noob:"…………"

... Can you stop mentioning it?

Obviously Cui Qichao did not understand Xiaobai's efforts to forget, and used this to teach white cats and orange cats.

Xiao Bai grinds his teeth in the mouth of Cui Qichao with hate, and Cui Qichao furiously beats Xiaobai a few times, "You give me a good one."

Seeing the butcher grabbing the pig and slaughtering it, Cui Qichao told him to leave the whole thigh of the pig, and he asked the cook to pickle Chinese-style pork ham. They are all marinated. What is not marinated? He also wants to make some Chinese-style sausages.

Medieval sausages have not changed as much since then. They are mostly filled with beef cecum and pig large intestine. Inside, internal organs are sometimes added, and various messy things such as oats and animal blood are also added. Then they are smoked. The flavor is very different. . And a few meat sausages with pork will inevitably have a taste of **, Cui Qichao has seen in the castle, which is quite unacceptable.

Cui Qichao put the cat next to his feet and started staring at the chef to rub the ham. "You must rub this corner too, knead the salt into the pork. You can feel it with your hands, with your heart, and feel that the pork is softening ..."

The cook's head was sweating. She hadn't marinated pork so much. She had to massage the pigs, but it saved more salt than they used to.

The pig was almost stout, with rough hair on the surface, and Cui Qichao had to let the cook shave the hair first. He stared at it, and Dabai and Tangerang were interested in the meat in the kitchen.

Xiaobai slapped them on the head, Cui Qichao glanced and said nothing.

Although Cui Qichao warned Xiaobai not to bully Dabai and Tangerine, such discipline was obviously not included. Xiao Bai had a happy heart, and took the opportunity to mad at two cats.

"Even if you hang it, you must check it from time to time, otherwise rottenness may occur and you need to deal with it in time." Cui Qichao warned the cook, and the cat screamed in his ears. He turned and picked up a pig the size of a basketball. Bai Ding shuddered, "You just give me enough, don't take advantage of it!"

Xiaobai looked at the pig's head, "..."

Sad and angry, Cui Qichao is intentional! !!

...
