Chapter 10: set off

The morning in early December was a bit cold. Today's Bennett Castle is very busy. After getting up in the morning, the servants are busy cleaning the carriage. The two stallions pulling the carriage are also fed with soybeans, and the sky blue is hung on the horse. Decorative pendants. The attendants trimmed their weapons, cleaned up their respective leather armor, boots, and Bennett's horses were carefully combed and replaced with gorgeous saddles.
When Abel took his servant out of the room with his servant, a noble guard of honor consisting of six pikemen, and a team of not-ornate but very clean carriages were waiting in front of the castle.
The spearmen are wearing uniform sky blue cloth armor, half-height leather boots on their feet, a sky blue cloth hat, and a three-meter long gun. Only the three-meter long gun is the real army. The other items are all made by the castle tailor. The cloth armor can make the arrows' servants take the arrows out of the body more easily. It can not hold the arrows down, let alone the cold-proof cloth hat. The two pikemen standing in the forefront stood with two flags at the tip of the gun. The pattern on it was the thorn shield of the Bennett family.
The carriage did not have too much decoration, but the curtains and door curtains were also replaced with sky blue. Sky blue is the main color of the thorn shield shield, so in formal occasions, the decoration of the castle is mainly sky blue.
While Abel was loading the box on the carriage, his father Bennett rode out of the castle on a steed, followed by his mother, Nora, with tears in her eyes, and her elder brother supported her.
The Knight of Bennett looked very solemn. His shiny silver-white armor reflected the cold light under the sun, and there was no helmet on his head. The helmet, shield and sword were hung on the saddle. On the side, the hair is simply tied into a ponytail shape, and the cold wind blows, and the hair dances with the cold wind.
The shield hangs on the outermost part of the saddle. The azure thorn shield coat of arms covers the entire shield and contrasts with the azure large sword scabbard.
My mother didn't speak, as if she had finished all the words last night, just looking at Abel like this, like looking at the most beautiful treasure in the world.
The elder brother Zach knew that one day Abel would leave the castle. This is a tradition. No one would violate it, so he always cared about and cared for his only brother, but he did not expect that this day would come so early. Zach stepped in front of Abel, and held Abel in his arms, so strong that even Abel, who was in the same state, felt pressure.
"Remember to come back when you are free. This is your home." The elder brother who usually talks a lot does not say much at this moment, but this affectionate sentence makes Aber's already peaceful heart almost out of control.
The winter morning sunlight didn't make people feel warm, the wind was a bit strong, and the banner with the family thorn shield pattern on the team was blown out. Abel didn't get into the carriage, but rode on the horse that had been almost three The old grandma immediately followed in the middle of the team. The set of iron-inlaid leather armor sent by his father was too large. Now he was wearing a leather cowhide lined with wool and carrying a light sword on his back. The weight of the sword was actually too light for him. The gift from his father was not very practical for him who was already a fourth grade.
Abel looked back at his mother, Nora, who was still watching the team leaving, and Zach, who was supporting her, and immediately turned around again. He was afraid he would turn back and tears would fall uncontrollably.
When the team left, there were not many people. Because of the need to leave some guards and guards, they brought only six pikemen, a coachman, plus Bennett and Abel, a total of 9 people. They followed Abel last time. After attending the Knights of Bennett, the attendant Norman went to Fort Lee to stay as the second master of the territory and to stay to protect the castle.
What is explained here is that, as the lowest-level aristocracy, not everyone is qualified to be a knight's servant. Loyalty, reliability, strong force, and low status are important conditions.
Like Norman in the Bennet family, he followed the knight to fight heroically from the battlefield. After his loyalty was recognized by the knight, he found out the warrior mystery from the family heritage and taught it to him, making him an official warrior. , And upgraded his status from an ordinary guard to a knight attendant higher than ordinary civilians.
And many homeless knights want to find the opportunity to become a knight's servant of a fiefdom knight. From this we can see the identity of the knight's servant. We must know that after the knight's servant has paid his loyalty, the knight is responsible for all the expenses of the servant, including Weapons, armor, and the placement of the servant family, so that both the servant and the knight must be cautious and cautious about collecting a servant. Perhaps the servant will save you or harm you in the next battle. you.
The team traveled for six hours. Except for a half-hour break at noon, the team has been traveling for the rest of the time. No one has interrupted the aristocratic team led by the Cavaliers, even those beasts. Feeling like a dormant active volcano, the Knights of Bennett erupted at any moment, and bypassed the team.
This is the farthest time Abel has ever left home, whether it is the 11 years in memory or the nearly 2 years since he came to the world himself, because it is winter, the scenery on the road is not attractive, there are only some evergreen plants Dotted on the dark earth.
Fortunately, it did not snow. Although these dirt roads were a little dusty when people and horses walked on it, they were better than mud after rain or snow. Abel heard that the roads in the bustling areas were large on the ground. Paved with rocks, it reminded him of the concrete road on the earth.
Abel thought that if the cement were made, these roads could become as hard as those paved with rocks. Patting his own head, he told himself in his heart not to think about the inventions and creations, and the lack of strength would harm himself and the family, just like the castle drainage system in the high cabinet of the Knights of Bennett.
As a person with modern education, Abel obviously felt that his thinking was more active than the teenager in his memory, and even more active than when he was on the earth. This is why he mastered his speed quickly when he learned knight skills, not only It is a knight skill. He can easily learn other noble etiquette and cultural knowledge and keep in mind that sometimes he cannot help wondering whether this is the physical welfare brought by his crossing.
The road ahead turned from a dirt road to a gravel road, and the road surface was much smoother. The Knight Bennett turned back and pointed to the road in front of Abel and said: "This is the characteristics of the Marshall Knight, especially for face, he asked all Both are the best. If it were not for the plains and there were no mountains to mine boulder, then he would make this road a boulder road. "
Watching his father's lightly polished armor on Knight Knight, the sky blue decoration specially made for horses specially prepared for today, and the new equipment on those pikemen, Abel would like to say, Father, if you If you have money, you must be better than the Cavaliers of Marshall.
