Chapter 4 - The maid

Xing Ye carried the mirror to the door, put it in the courtyard, and walked away. After a while, he came over with a fist-sized stone, held the handle of the mirror with his left hand, and raised the stone with his right hand, saying: "Queen No one is allowed to hide the mirror privately. This mirror will bring disaster to the villagers, smash it."

The mirror under the moonlight shook violently, and two words appeared on the mirror immediately: General.

Xing Ye raised his eyebrows slightly: "It's still a self-conscious mirror. This is a tempting devil. If you hit it, burn it with fire."

The handwriting on the mirror immediately becomes "beautiful", capitalized, highlighted, and bold!

Xing Ye was unmoved, without blinking his eyelids, he turned the stone down, and when the stone was about to touch the mirror, the word changed again, this time it was the word "handsome" in the colorful artistic word.

"Oh?" Xing Ye put down the stone and said, "Do you know my true gender?"

The words on the mirror disappeared, reflecting the beautiful moonlight, like an ordinary mirror.

"If it's just a quest item, there should be no way of knowing the player's identity; if it is a quest NPC with a soul, when you recognize Claire as a male, I should receive a reminder that the quest failed." Xing Ye said, holding the stone. "So, what are you?"

The mirror didn't respond. It seemed that even if Xing Ye dropped the stone, he wouldn't say anything. The moonlight it reflected was dark and gloomy, with a strong sense of bravery.

"I don't want to say it," Xing Ye put down the stone. "At present, the plot can't go on without you. Although there may be a new ending if the mirror is broken, the hope is too slim, so let's accept you temporarily."

The moonlight in the mirror was brighter.

Xing Ye brought the mirror back to the wooden house, and the voice of relief came from the narrator: "Claire also loves this mirror very much. Even if he is afraid, she secretly hugs the mirror tightly, put it next to her pillow, and under the protection of the mirror. A beautiful dream."

Xing Ye: "..."

This game narration is over.

Claire, without a pillow, rolled up the mirror with hay, used it as a pillow, and slept all night.

The next morning, Xing Ye gnawed off half of the remaining brown bread and sat on the bed thinking about whether he should catch two fish to improve his food today. Belleca's hasty voice sounded outside the door: "Claire, the big deal is not good!"

Xing Ye opened the door, Belleca rushed into the wooden house sweating profusely, locked the door, and said nervously: "Count Luca wants to choose an unmarried girl as a maid in the village of the territory!"

Xing Ye is unmoved, what does the maid have to do with him?

Seeing Xing Ye's face, Belleca panicked even more: "Claire, what's your face..."

She looked quite surprised, Xing Ye did not answer the question, just touched his face.

"You are so beautiful..." Berecka was confused for a moment, and then awake, clutching Xing Ye's arm and said, "I finally understand why my parents didn't let me wash your face. You are so beautiful. No, you can't. Taken away by Count Luca, he has abused countless maids to death. If he sees you, he will definitely..."

Belleca rushed out of the room after speaking, and returned with muddy hands a few seconds later: "Claire, Shinobi!"

Seeing that the mud was about to stick to his face, Xing Ye grabbed Belleca's hand: "How many maids are they going to choose in this village?"

"One." Belleca was suppressed by Xing Ye's momentum, and replied blankly, "Count Luca's territory is quite large. There are dozens of villages. The guards will not take all unmarried girls away. They will always keep some. Give birth to children."

Are farmers imprisoned on the land? This is probably the eve of serfdom in the Middle Ages. The peasants still retain some freedom. The nobles have not yet personally enslaved the peasants. The purchase of female slaves is also a relatively mild method.

According to the background of this era, if he has been trapped in this village, he will never be able to contact the queen in the background of the story. The matter of Count Luca should be an opportunity.

According to Belleca, he looks beautiful now. As long as anyone sent by the earl sees him, he will definitely choose him as a maid.

Xing Ye thought about the setting of Claire's role in the plot. He raised his hand and touched Belleca's head, recalling the tone of his speech with his brother, and said as softly as possible: "Even if it wasn't me, it would be other girls. We are all friends, how can I bear to watch a girl like Belleca be taken away? You will be sad if you leave your parents, but I am not the same. I am only myself, no family members cry, I will go Is the most suitable."

He spoke intermittently and was extremely unskilled. Fortunately, Belleca was excited, and Claire's personality seemed to be such a kind, self-sacrificing girl, Belleca did not doubt him.

"But, but...uuuu..." Belleca couldn't bear it after a few words, and ran out crying.

Xing Ye: "..."

What are you running? Provide him with more information, such as Count Luca's personality habits, family background, and social status.

The narration sounded abruptly: "When the girl in the village was in danger, Claire decided to come forward. Her bravery and beauty made Belleca feel ashamed and ran out of the room. Claire, who was left alone in the wooden house, was very nervous and she couldn't help but take it. Get out of the mirror hidden by the pillow and say to the mirror, Claire, be strong!"

Xing Ye: "..."

Forget it, ignore the broken narration, the left and right mirrors are important props that you also have to bring, and it's not bad to hide it by yourself when you have the opportunity.

He pulled out the mirror from a pile of grass, and Xing Ye suddenly had a trace of doubt when he touched the handle. Belleca can be confused by Claire's face, who is the same sex. Is it really so good-looking? Yesterday, when checked through the night, didn't think it was so beautiful. It was very similar to his original appearance.

Just now that the sun is full, Xing Ye intends to look at his face again, who knows that his face is not reflected in the mirror, but the words "I refuse to take this ugly face."

It's still smashed, the earl's mansion is so dangerous, it is impossible for a maid to have her own room, it is impossible to hide a mirror, keeping it is a disaster.

Xing Ye stared at the mirror coldly. When someone knocked on the door when he was about to smash it with his foot, he had no choice but to put the mirror into his chest quickly.

It happens to be stuck in the middle of the fat imposed by the two tuo systems, this thing is finally a bit useful.

mirror:"..."

Opening the door, a middle-aged man in coarse cloth came in and said to Xing Ye: "Claire, the man sent by the earl wants the girls from the village to gather in the square, and you are no exception.

"Okay." Xing Ye nodded, and his two long legs took a heroic step out of the wooden house.

Until the middle-aged man who was suspected of being the village chief yelled out of breath, "Claire, go slow, I can't keep up!"

Usually busy with work and fast-paced life, Xing Ye always walks like the wind, and with his long legs, other people can only keep up with walking speed by trotting.

Forget that you are a girl, remember!

Claire·Xing Ye stopped and waited for the village chief and Belleca, who was still crying, patiently and slowly followed them to the village square.

At the plaza of the harvest season, Xing Ye understood why Count Luca chose only one person to be a maid, because the population of the village was too small. There are no more than a hundred people in the entire village, and there are only 15 unmarried girls. If you choose two more, the village will disappear.

The mirror on his chest made him a little bit painful. Fortunately, there was something like an apron on the chest of working women in this era, which blocked the protruding part of the mirror. Xing Ye could still bear this discomfort.

Count Luca sent three people, two guards, and an elderly maid. When the girls arrived, they began to pick and choose the girls in the village.

Xing Ye, who was a whole head taller than the others, stood out from the crowd, and was caught by the guard at a glance.

"It's so beautiful!" the guard exclaimed, "I didn't expect that there should be such a beautiful girl in this shabby village. Lord Earl will definitely like her."

The older maid was also very satisfied: "With her, the other maids should be able to live longer."

Xing Ye: "..."

There was almost no hesitation. The three of them did not look at the other girls, and directly told the village chief that they would take Claire·Xing Ye away, so that they could give her family a part of the money. If they died in the future, the generous Count Luca would also use money to compensate Claire's family. .

"She has no family." The village chief looked at Xing Ye unbearably.

"Then keep it for herself," the elderly maid said lightly. "It is good to be able to enjoy money before you die. Even in the earl's house, money is useful."

She stuffed ten copper coins into Xing Ye's hands, and Xing Ye naturally put the cheap "selling money" into her pocket.

The people in the earl's mansion didn't give him time to say goodbye to his friends. Xing Ye didn't have any luggage to take away, so he just followed them.

Their village is the last, and there are already nineteen young girls waiting outside. Two guards mounted their horses, and the older maid walked behind with twenty girls.

Xing Ye was full of energy and did not feel tired after following the horse for a long time. The rest of the girls were miserable, dragging each other to barely keep up with the large group, and did not dare to beg the guards to rest.

The older maid seemed to be not tired, her back was straight and she walked fast.

She satisfactorily said to Xing Ye, who was behind her, "I can live longer if I have enough physical strength."

Xing Ye: "..."

Count Luca only bought maids in the villages near the territory, and they walked to the count's manor in a day's walk.

Nineteen maids were taken for training. The old housekeeper took Xing Ye to a room alone and said: "Take a bath and spray on the perfume in the room. Don't wear this torn clothes. You go and serve the earl tonight. ."

The narration sounded at the right time: "Claire, who came to Earls Court, doesn't know what kind of future he will face."

Probably squeezing the future of the earl's egg, Xing Ye secretly squeezed his fist.

The author has something to say:

Xing Ye: mmp, this is different from the deadly game I thought!
