Western Fantasy: I can brush entries infinitely

Chapter 64 Backgammon, Sunflower

The river was not deep, and with Malcolm watching, Ron didn't have to worry about the safety of Melittoia and Irene.

Sig came forward, saluted and said, "My lord, further ahead is the habitat of the second-order monsters."

His current strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and it is easy to fight against the second-level monsters, but when encountering groups of monsters, he cannot take care of so many people.

Ron nodded to show his understanding, and Sig stopped talking and stepped aside.

He watched Irene approaching with a handful of black and white stones in her hand, and smiled with white teeth: "My lord, look at this stone, feel it, and see if it's smooth!"

Ron took one from Irene's hand and determined that these pebbles were pebbles. These pebbles were of different sizes, the largest being only the size of his palm. They had been washed by river water and gravel at the bottom of the river bed all year round, making the surface extremely smooth.

He stroked the pebbles with his hands, feeling very comfortable, and said with a smile: "It's good to polish such a good pebble to make chess pieces."

Irene tilted her head, "Chess piece? What is that? It shouldn't be eaten."

thump.

The next second, Ron tapped her head lightly, "I just know how to eat, I'm talking about a puzzle game, which consists of black and white pieces and a board."

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Melittoya, and his heart moved, it seemed that Melittoya could develop her intelligence while playing chess.

When she heard that it was not for food, Irene lost interest in an instant, and ran to the river to fish for pebbles.

However, Joyce and Teresa behind him were very interested. Teresa was surprised by Ron's erudition, and Joyce aroused curiosity in his heart. This kind of chess composed of black and white is not mentioned in the book. appeared.

"Lord, can you tell me how this game is played?" Joyce rarely spoke about things other than work.

Ron nodded, and said, "It's better to demonstrate it orally. It just so happens that most of the pebbles picked up by Irene and Melittoya are black and white, so let's use them as pawns."

Afterwards, he ordered Sig to cut the pebbles into chess pieces of the same size and shape. As soon as Buprofen heard that, he volunteered to participate and compete with Sig.

"Sig, do you dare to compare my speed with me! You make white chess pieces, and I make black chess pieces." Buprofen said.

Sig squinted at him, raised his hand and passed over his bald head, "Come on, the lord is still waiting."

Buprofen looked at Sig's bald head, the corner of his mouth twitched, and then he picked up the stone and carved it with his sword.

The two already knew the specifications of the chess pieces, and they were extraordinary, so they completed the first chess piece easily and quickly.

On the other side, Ron asked Abel to flatten a large bluestone by the river, and then carved a criss-cross grid.

"Melitoia, bring the carved chess."

"Okay, my lord brother."

Although it was a very trivial matter, Melittoia was very happy to think that she could help Ron.

"Come on, sit down."

Ron raised his hand and asked Joyce to sit opposite him, and then talked about the rules of chess, "The name of this chess is-'Gobang'."

After some explanations and demonstrations, the few onlookers understood the rules of backgammon.

Joyce: "This kind of chess looks simple, but the pieces are staggered, and they can be connected horizontally, vertically and obliquely to form five pieces. It requires careful thinking about the previous pieces to make more possibilities behind."

Ron nodded in satisfaction, "Come on, theory is just theory, try it in the next game."

Seager and Ibuprofen have already carved quite a few chess pieces, and Ron doesn't think that with his backgammon strength, he needs to play the entire chessboard to win Joyce, who is a novice.

"Ladies first." Ron handed the initiative to Joyce.

Hearing this, Joyce's pretty face became slightly hot, and he picked up a white chess piece and placed it in the center.

riverside.

Irene was fishing for stones, and the two knights worked hard to carve the stones that Irene scooped up.

And Melittoya turned into a hard-working porter, transporting the carved chess pieces to the chessboard. Even if it is boring to run back and forth, little Melissa enjoys it.

Ron and Joyce sat opposite each other. Compared with Joyce's frowning, Ron looked relaxed and freehand.

Abel, Malcolm, and Teresa stood behind them and watched the chess, thinking about where to play the next move if they were themselves.

Seeing that everyone had something to do, Nancy curled her lips, puffed up her cheeks and squatted beside the chessboard, her eyes were just at the same level as the chessboard, and she didn't know what she was looking at.

After more than ten moves, Joyce was defeated. She bit her lip lightly, replaying the chess game just now in her mind.

"It's already very good to be able to play like this for the first time. You are very talented. Come again." Ron smiled.

Joyce stood up and bowed slightly, "Thank you Lord Lord for your guidance, Miss Teresa will do this round."

Seeing Joyce step aside, Ron didn't say anything.

"Thank you."

Teresa thanked him politely. In her capacity, there was no need to do so. She could see that Joyce was a confidant specially trained by Ron, otherwise she would not have specially ordered him to be brought out.

"Please, Miss Teresa."

Ron smiled and made a gesture of invitation, and the two began to play chess.

Afterwards, Ron and the two women played several games in a row. There were more and more black and white pieces on the board, and the time it took him to win the game also increased.

Gradually, he felt the pressure.

Backgammon is not an advanced game, but it is easy to learn after fully understanding the rules.

"Melitoya, come here, I'll teach you how to play chess!"

After winning Joyce again, Ron yelled at Melittoia, who kept running in both directions.

The leader wants to teach his younger sister how to play chess, and the two girls can no longer occupy the position, and then join the spectators in a game.

Hearing her brother's call, Melittoya trotted over and sat obediently on the stone pier. She had also listened to the rules just now, but she hadn't started yet.

When children are interested in these things, they learn things very quickly. After playing a game of chess with Ron, they have a good look.

On the side, Abel glanced at the sky, saluted Ron and said, "My lord, I am very sorry to disturb your interest, but we should go back."

It was almost noon, and it was time for lunch.

Ron put down his chess and got up, "It's getting late, let them stop and go back."

Abel: "Then these chess pieces."

Ron glanced, "It's up to you."

Nancy couldn't help but said, "Then what's the material I'm looking for!"

Hearing this, Ron remembered the purpose of this trip to the Black Valley Forest. He said, "Next time, go back to fill your stomach first."

Nancy pouted to express her dissatisfaction, but this time it was not without gain. Thinking of the new materials collected in her backpack, a little bit of dissatisfaction quickly disappeared.

"Knight Ibuprofen, please take this bluestone chessboard back with you," Joyce said.

"Small things, wrap them up on me."

Ibuprofen has an entry for improving his arm strength. He glanced at the size of the bluestone and said that there is no problem.

Everyone packed up their things and returned on their way.

Along the way, Irene followed Ron, walking with a bang, and Ron looked at her bag and asked helplessly, "Did you put all the pebbles in your pocket?"

"Yeah, it feels very comfortable, I want to take it back for collection." Irene nodded.

Ron agreed with what she said, and thought in his heart that when he went back, he would ask Irene for some to play with, and see if he could make a good entry by the way.

For example, brush some 'Five Elements Lingzhu' or something.

Not long after walking all the way, Abel and Sig suddenly came to the front of the crowd, "Lord, be careful, there are monsters ahead!"

Monster!

Except for the magic horned rabbit on the dining table, Ron had never seen a real monster. He became interested in an instant and stood where he was waiting for the monster to show up.

Soon, a two-meter-high black shadow slowly walked out of the forest. Seeing the true face of the monster, Ron stared with a slightly astonished expression.

Abel stared at the monster, and said, "How come there are second-order golden sunflowers on the periphery, Sig will go together, and the battle will be resolved quickly."

Sig nodded, and he decided to use all his strength to defeat the monster in front of him.

In front of everyone is a plant-like monster, which walks on its own roots. On top of the thick rhizomes is a huge flower disc, surrounded by golden petals.

Abel said it was a golden sunflower, but in Ron's eyes it was a moving sunflower!
Moreover, the fruit is densely packed in the flower plate, and there are countless, commonly known as melon seeds!

Seeing that Abel and Sig were about to rush up and chop off the monster, Ron shouted, "Leave it alive!"

"Why does this kind of monster keep it?"

Ron looked at Nancy who was speaking, "You know it well?"

Nancy nodded, "Golden sunflowers are very common monsters. Because of their habits, they will leave fruits in flower plates wherever they go. If the fruits are not in the soil for a period of time, new golden sunflowers will grow again."

"Because of the flood, the Adventurer's Association has a headache, but there is no good way to completely get rid of this fast-growing monster."

Ron narrowed his eyes slightly, "You mean there are many such monsters?"

Nancy nodded affirmatively, "There are many, but the second-order golden sunflowers encountered today are very rare. They are generally at the first-order level, and rarely break through to the second-order."

Not far away, Abel and Seeger quickly subdued Jinkui. The battle just happened so quickly that a face-to-face monster fell to the ground.

"My lord, what should I do next?"

Ron pointed to the sunflower seeds on the flower plate and asked Nancy: "Are the fruits growing on them poisonous? Well, in other words, can they be eaten?"

Nancy was stunned and shook her head: "Golden sunflower is non-toxic, it just uses the fruit grown on its body to attack. It doesn't matter even if it is used up, it will grow back soon anyway."

After getting the exact answer, Ron was relieved.

"Pick off all the fruits on the flower plate and bring them back. I can use them." Ron ordered.

Irene suddenly came over and asked with flickering eyes: "My lord, is it edible?"

"You guessed it right this time. Sunflower seeds can be used for many purposes, the simplest of which is to dry them in the sun, and then they can be eaten after being fried." Ron said simply, which was firmly remembered by Irene.

After collecting all the sunflower seeds, everyone left the Black Valley Forest. As for the monster that stripped all the sunflower seeds, it stayed in this forest.

The outing on a whim this time came to an end quickly, and everyone had a good harvest and returned to the mansion.

"Master Baron, thank you for your invitation. I am very happy today." Teresa thanked.

"You're welcome, I will invite you again next time, I hope Miss Teresa will not refuse." Ron chuckled.

"Of course not, I'd be more than happy to accept your invitation."

The two chatted for a few words before ending the conversation.

Teresa returned to the room. The excitement on Melittoya's face remained at this time. Ron smiled and said, "Melitoya, are you having a good time today?"

"happy!"

"That's good. I will assign you an assignment later. You will write a review of today's play and give it to Joyce for inspection."

Upon hearing this, Melittoya was dumbfounded, and stammered: "My lord, but I still can't write a lot of words."

"It's okay, I don't know how to write, read it and let Irene write it." Ron had already thought of a way for Melittoia.

"Ah? Why is there still my business?" Irene was still thinking about the sunflower seeds, and suddenly heard her name, with a bitter face.

"I can't write well, and I haven't eaten popsicles for a week." Ron entered the room after finishing speaking.

The bluestone chessboard brought back from the Black Valley Forest, Ron let them be placed under the Miracle tree in the front yard.

In the future, if someone wants to play chess, they can go there, which can be regarded as an additional form of entertainment.

After lunch.

Diana reports to Ron in the study.

"The new clothes look good, you did a good job." Ron looked at Diana's new maid clothes, very satisfied.

Compared with the previous traditional decorations, the new maid outfits are more beautiful. The skirts are mostly decorated with patterns, and the neckline is tied with a bow. The headdress is no longer the usual cloth wrapping, but a hairpin ribbon.

Tsk tsk, this designer is really talented.

Ron sighed in his heart, making the already beautiful Diana even more beautiful.

"I'm sorry, my lord."

Diana bowed her head in shame and said in an apologetic tone.

"Oh? Why apologize." Ron wondered.

"I did not complete what you ordered, and I failed your expectations." Diana lowered her head even deeper, and Ron felt a burden for her somewhere.

"Who did that? Anyway, it's a good thing, you don't need to blame yourself."

Diana raised her head, "It's Rosalind, she is excellent, from clothing design to finding fabrics are all due to her alone."

Ron remembered the name, she was Egbert's granddaughter, and he hadn't checked Rosalind's character card yet.

Hearing Diana, who has always been strict, praise a person so much, an idea came to Ron's mind that this Rosalind might have a high-quality entry.

"You ask her to come."

Diana bowed to her orders and left the study to summon Rosalind. Rosalind, who was cleaning the corridor, knew what was going on when she heard the lord's summons, and she had expected it.

Soon, Rosalind was brought to the study.

In her impression, the study is a place where the lord always stays, except for a few people in the mansion, other people are not allowed to set foot.

Ron looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, with very beautiful silver hair, delicate facial features, fair skin like snow, paired with a new maid uniform, the whole person seemed to have stepped out of a painting.

He beckoned to Rosalind and let her come closer.

"Rosalind, Egbert's granddaughter. It was you who organized the new costumes for the mansion, and your execution ability is very good." Ron got up while speaking, and came to Rosalind's side.

"My lord, I'm over-respecting. I just want to help the head maid and share your worries." Rosalind replied with a low eyebrow.

Hearing this, Ron raised his eyebrows, and said a few more irrelevant things, Rosalind was able to pick up the words and answered perfectly.

"Xavier from West Street School is your teacher, right?" Ron asked, but his tone was very certain.

"Yes, Mr. Xavier is very good, and the students in the school respect him very much." Rosalind smiled. Xavier's name has entered the ears of the lord. The higher the influence in the future, the more beneficial it will be to her plan .

"It turns out that a famous teacher produces a good apprentice."

Ron nodded, then picked up a piece of paper on the table and handed it over. Rosalind reached out to take it, and the two of them touched inadvertently.

Character card generation.
