Hughes’ last remarks have reached their goal. He consciously has done his best to Allen, the friend who has just met the contradiction, and completed the help he should provide as an ordinary friend. As to whether he can finally succeed, it is up to Allen himself Too. Thousands goal? It doesn't matter, with Ellen's ultimate coolness, this goal can be achieved without forcing.
Hughes clapped his hands and got up. The clapping sound awakened Mei Si in contemplation. She helped Bonnie, who was still blushing, stand up together. Before waiting for him to speak, Bonnie suddenly offered a lady salute to Hughes and then trot back to the room. Both Meth and Hughes laughed for a moment. They knew that until now, the relationship between the three was truly harmonious.
"It's time to go back to the room to recuperate. I'm still asleep!" Hughes opened his arms slightly, stretched a little, and said to Meth with a smile.
"Please, please." Mei Si smiled and turned back to the room.
Hugh always passes fast, and Hughes feels that once again, the sun has already hung in the middle of the sky, even to the west, and his stomach screamed. When I walked out of the room to wash, there was no movement of Metz and they thought that they should have gone out.
After eating in the cafeteria, Hughes went to the Grand Knight's house again.
He should only be able to stay in school for three years, which seems to be a lot. In fact, for the training time required to become a real knight, three years is not enough. If he becomes a higher knight by himself, with the help of artifact armor, maybe ten years is enough, but compared to a profession, perhaps hundreds of years of continuous struggle for generations, or a protracted continent In the war, this profession can obtain enough nourishment to develop and mature.
Hughes knew there was not much time. Because what he wants is professional glory, his ambition is to rely on a powerful knighthood to help him hold up the throne to become a star in the sky, rather than just become a generation of strong names on the mainland.
With dazzling fireworks and eternal brilliant stars, Hughes is already qualified to choose the latter.
When Hughes knocked on the door of the great knight Arthur Astori, there was no response in the room. Hughes knocked a few more times, and there was still no sound. Until Arthur was ready to go back after knocking the last time, there was a shout suddenly from the stable next to him, and the knight was waving to him in the stable.
Benston, who was somewhat frustrated, became happy when he trot over to the big knight with two arms and sweating, and said happily.
Arthur smiled and said to Hughes: "Don't you sleep well today? Have any questions?" As he spoke, he pushed the wooden door of the stable from inside and signaled Hughes to come in.
"It's not enough to have problems. If you don't know the horses, everything is empty talk, understand?" Arthur didn't wait for Hughes to answer, but threw a sweaty towel on Hughes's shoulder with a wave of his hand. , Laughing, and then walked into the stable. Hughes frowned and thought about it. Without removing the towel, he let it hang on his shoulder like that and walk behind the big knight. What makes Hughes uncomfortable is that because the excitement has just passed, he immediately smelled an unpleasant odor sensitively in the nose-that is caused by the mixture of the fishy smell of animals and the smell of animal feces. .
The wrinkles between Hughes' eyebrows suddenly deepened a lot.
When he was at home, the punishment he hated most was cleaning the stables, and even if he knew his way, he had never thought about what he would do one day.
"It smells so bad!" Hughes whispered to himself. And his feet are intentionally avoiding falling into muddy places, so he is almost jumping forward.
"If you're afraid of getting dirty, go back. The knight is never a clean job! Hughes!" The knight didn't look back, but he seemed to have a deep reminder as if he had eyes behind his head.
Hughes suddenly stiffened in mid-air, and then fell straight down, both feet stomping fiercely in the mud.
"What are you doing? Splashing mud on me?" The big knight suddenly jumped like a frightened rabbit, and rushed out in two steps. This relatively muddy walkway pulled his clothes and trousers with a lingering fear. Watching carefully, "Fortunately, I responded quickly without being splashed."
Seeing this scene later, Hughes opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, and finally closed it again. He looked down at his high-quality trousers covered with stinky mud, crying without tears.
Arthur saw it, shrugged, then walked forward again, turned around a few steps later, and stopped.
"Old man, a friend came to see you, are you happy?" Arthur lost his figure after taking a step forward, and when Hughes quickly came over two steps, he found that Arthur's knight was embracing a black beautiful and healthy man. The horse's neck whispered into the horse's ears. The dark horse's big eyes flickered from time to time, showing a gentle light, and the big ears also gently swept Arthur's face, causing Arthur to smile away from time to time.
Susie was startled, and he suddenly felt that the horse was so human, and the person was so harmonious, like a family.
"Say hello to Hughes." Arthur smiled and let go, and said to the dark horse.
The black horse seemed to really understand the human language, with a hissing sound, the front hoof jumped up, the whole horse stood upright, and the front hoof quickly raked a few times in the air, it really seemed like a man was giving a gift. Hughes was stunned by this move. He never thought that animals could be so human, which almost subverted his understanding of animals.
In fact, it is generally believed on the mainland that ordinary animals are not wise. Only World of Warcraft, or only Warcraft above the intermediate level, can reflect the gradually rising wisdom according to the level from low to high. World of Warcraft with the ability to reach the legendary level of human beings can even change the body, speak eloquently, learn human civilization, including the magic of sages. But here, Hughes was surprised to see examples of ordinary animals with wisdom.
Fortunately, compared with killing, ordinary animals will salute and the like is much less stimulating, and Hughes reacted after he was stunned. Out of respect for the big knight, Hughes hesitated and returned a salute to the black horse. Although in his heart, he thought it was very ridiculous.
Arthur was clearly satisfied with Hughes' attitude. He laughed and patted Hughes on the shoulder.
"Her name is Firna, a pure-bred Durban mare. Now, in addition to the fact that some families above the Duke also cultivate this kind of horse, even the marquis can't afford to spend a lot of land and money to keep the horse. My horse is just After helping a marquis to do things, the host gave it to me as a gift. You must know that my house and cost are not very suitable for my identity. If you sympathize with me, you may still feel that the Allianz royal family is unfair to me. But since you The second time, I will help you again, the kingdom provides me with the same supply as other great sword masters, but most of my money is used to feed her."
Arthur's active explanation really says that Hughes got his heart. He originally thought that the profession of knight was going through all kinds of difficulties in the kingdom! Unexpectedly, everything turned out to be wrong. The kingdom did not suppress the knights. It was actually those great swordsmen who believed that the swordsman’s career in knights was unrewarding.
However, immediately after Hughes thought of the second meaning of this remark-if a great swordsman with a status comparable to Earl would spend most of his money to raise a horse, then if he wanted to get a good horse How much does it cost? This is a question that must be considered, because Hughes's expenses are entirely from the family's supply. If my father knew that he wanted a lot of money for the purpose of raising horses, then the result would be predictable.
Thinking of this, Hughes once again observed the face of Arthur's knight, trying to find out from his expression whether the knight encouraged him or dissuaded him.
However, a 14-year-old child wants to see the thoughts of a mature man in his forties...
"Can I touch her?" Hughes couldn't figure it out for a while, so he let go of the question and easily got in touch with the knight's close partner. If this horse can be liked, it is estimated that the Grand Knight will not refuse him again.
"Of course!" Arthur smiled. "But I have to tell you that she only accepts the touch of her friends. If it is not sincere, in this position, maybe she will kiss you!"
Huston was speechless, and now the Marco had no heads, and if she were to bite her, the consequences would be unknown.
However, he is still willing to take a chance. Since he is determined to be taught by the Grand Knight, it is particularly important to establish a close and trusting relationship with him. Human trust is always mutual, and Hughes never expects to earn the true knight's trust while he hates the stables extremely.
And obviously, to make the Grand Knight trust, he must first gain the trust of his horse. This is a level that cannot be avoided. Hughes has also read some books and knows that in many cases, the animal's mind is much sharper than the human mind, and can easily feel whether the other party is good or malicious.
"It's not unacceptable to make friends with a horse that bathes frequently, you say yes, beautiful Miss Firna!" Hughes smiled and put his hand to the black horse's neck.
Slowly, Hughes’ fingertips touched the beautiful mane on Firna’s neck, and then the fingertips touched Firna’s fur again. At this moment, Filna, who was motionless, suddenly made a snorting, and her front hoof moved a few times.
As soon as Hughes shuddered, he almost wanted to retract his arm and jump away. But immediately, he suppressed this urge, and his eyes met Filna's eyes, without blinking, with goodwill in his eyes. And his hand stretched forward steadily, and finally, the entire palm was pressed against Firna's warm neck.
With a sigh of relief, Hughes felt at this time that there were already fine sweat beads on his forehead, and then the vest was a little sticky. His hands began to move gently, stroking Phil's smooth fur, and a gradual admiration appeared in his heart.
Hughes didn't know that, while he was trying to touch Filna, Arthur also watched his expression without blinking, his eyes showing dignified and inexplicable worry. Even when Firna snapped her nose slightly uncomfortably, his heart shrank suddenly, as if something was going away from him.
"Fortunately, Firna finally accepted Hughes, and she felt the goodwill of Hughes." When Arthur realized that he had such a thought, he was amazed and relieved for a moment. Firna's acceptance is the first step, not even a test. After all, Firna is still his friend to Arthur, and how many twists and turns will Hughes have to find his most loyal and brave helper?
Looking at Hughes, Arthur couldn't help but think of the mist that enveloped the future, he looked up at the sky and sighed faintly.
"Do you want to give him more opportunities?" The question echoed quietly in Arthur's heart.
"Master Arthur, it seems that Ms. Firna does not exclude me, huh, huh." Hughes had already stroked Firna's neck, and the dark horse seemed to enjoy this sense of comfort. When he came over, he rubbed a few times in front of Huss's chest, his big hairy ears stroking back and forth several times on the face, and Lehuss laughed continuously.
"Okay, Filna already knows you, Hughes, why don’t we go back and talk. If you come to me later, you can come and see Filna yourself. She will like to have another friend. But, I have to remind You are not allowed to feed Firna, do you understand?" Arthur said with a smile, then stepped forward and pulled two Firna's ears and turned and walked out.
Hughes nodded and shook his head again: "Why can't I see it but can't be fed? What's so special about it?"
Arthur turned around and asked with a surprised expression: "Did you pick up your wife in the future and let other men feed her?"
Hughes stumbled and nearly fell into the muddy pit. "But I just touched her. According to you, can your wife let me touch?" Hughes scolded at the bottom of his heart.
Arthur walking in front seemed to see what Hughes thought, and suddenly sneered: "Just like you can shake hands with other ladies, touch your neck and back, it is just a courtesy greeting to Firna, but if If you dare to touch her ears, mouth and ass, I believe you will have unforgettable memories for life!"
Hughes suddenly looked up, only to find that Arthur didn't look back at him, but walked on his own. Hughes stared at his back, and finally buried his head again, carefully paying attention to the stinky pit under his feet.
Entering the wooden building, Arthur went to the room to wash a towel and threw it to Hughes, beckoning him to scrub the dirt off his body.
Hughes felt depressed at the thought of this place. It was the other party's sentence that made him like this.
"Okay, it's almost clean. Now you can sit on the sofa." Arthur smiled after watching Hughes wipe it for a while. Hughes sat down by words.
"What questions are you asking today? I remember you asked a lot yesterday. The basic knowledge of the cavalier profession, I should have told you all without revealing it." Arthur smiled and asked seriously.
Hughes laughed: "Is that the most basic principle, isn't it? In fact, the knight should be produced after a complicated combination of these basic principles. Just knowing the principle, not knowing how to operate, actually can't get their true Function, you say, Master Arthur?"
Arthur gave Surus a surprised look: "Did you come up with it all night?"
Hughes raised a finger in front of him and shook it gently: "It wasn't just one night, I just went out and walked on the road on the third training ground of the logistics department. I already wanted to understand."
Arthur frowned as he heard the words, and Hughes's answer was too different from his thoughts. No matter how he overestimates the 14-year-old child with excellent qualifications in front of him, he can't think of a reason why the other party can understand such a complicated thing at such a young age. Even for him, it was after almost three years of long exploration that he truly understood the huge difference between ideas and practices.
