I, a fallen nobleman, started the farming system

Chapter 15 Kneeling

Both Farr and his wife Tini were free citizens who used to live in another town. Later, because the lord there increased taxes, the money they earned every day was not enough for the tax, so they had to move out.

After drifting for a while, his wife became pregnant, Farr knew that he couldn't go on like this, so he came to Ashes Town.

At that time, the town was relatively stable, and there was no specific lord here, and the landowner, the Earl, would not come here. Only the appointed mayor managed the entire town.

Relying on his own craftsmanship, he made furniture for the townspeople, and soon settled down. With the money he earned, he could live a stable life, and he could often eat fermented bread mixed with white flour.

Although the town is close to the Sunset Forest and there are monsters, they haven't encountered them before, but most of them are wild beasts. Every time a wild beast comes, the mayor will lead the adults in the town to round it up, and then hold a bonfire party in the center of the town to kill the wild beasts. barbecue.

The townspeople will also take out the food at home, sit around the campfire, drink and eat meat.

Later, monsters appeared and killed many people, even the mayor of the town. The land was cursed and plants could not grow. The beasts came in one after another, and the townspeople did not dare to take action. The cattle, sheep and chickens raised at home were killed. Eat, the crops were destroyed, some people couldn't stand it and left here.

Farr also thought about leaving Ash Town with his wife and children. The child fell ill that year, so they had to stay temporarily. After the child recovered, they heard the news that there were monsters on the road leading to the outside world. A family saw the chewed-up bodies of townspeople on the road.

It was for this reason that the townspeople did not dare to leave easily.

It is a good thing for Farr that the Lord Lord came to Ashes Town this time. He felt that this place has finally been taken seriously, and the Lord Lord has solved the problem of the land curse as soon as he came, and he will definitely be able to deal with the monsters.

"The furniture at home has become like this for no reason. Are we also cursed?"

Farr yelled, "Don't talk nonsense, don't even mention the curse. Once the mayor thinks we have been cursed, the family of three will be burned to death."

Tini covered her mouth and nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice. The mayor had burned the serfs to death before. Although she didn't see it, she could hear the twisted screams of pain described by others when they were burned.

She doesn't want to go through such a thing.

"But what should we do, and we can't leave town"

A knock on the door interrupted her.

"Who will come here at this time?" Tiny looked puzzled.

"Is Farr at home, hurry up and open the door to greet the lord." Karis' voice came from outside.

"My lord?" Tini's eyes widened. "Could it be that he knew about our curse and wanted to capture us and burn us to death?"

Faer thumped in his heart, and comforted: "Don't think about it, maybe it's something else."

His tone was trembling, obviously frightened.

The knock on the door sounded again, Far tried to calm himself down and opened the door.

Carliss looked dissatisfied and said in a bad tone, "You should be hanged to death for the little leader who neglects the lord so much."

Farr quickly explained, "My lord, due to working all day during the day, the speed of opening the door is a bit slow, please forgive me."

Lynn waved his hand, expressing that he didn't care, and walked in directly.

The house is very simple, there is not much furniture, and some tools are hung on the wall, which is a bit inconsistent with his status as a carpenter.

Tini's body was trembling constantly, and she was terrified at the thought of her family being burned to death.

Lynn noticed something was wrong with her and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

"No, it's nothing. It may be that your majesty, my lord, made Tini worship from the bottom of my heart. In order not to affect you, let her leave here." Farr gave Tini a look and told her to go out quickly.

"No!" Lynn said, turning to look at Tiny.

He can naturally see that the other party is not worshiping, but is afraid in his bones, but why he should be afraid of himself, this makes him a little puzzled.

There is a gap in status between the free people and the nobles, but as long as they are not tyrannical lords, they will be friendly to the free people to a certain extent, because they can bring a lot of taxes to the territory.

Seeing that Farr didn't intend to explain, Lynn thought about it for a while, and didn't ask, but talked about the purpose of coming here.

"I heard you're having trouble at home."

Before he could finish speaking, he heard two bangs.

Farr and Tiny knelt on the ground, and Karis on one side was stunned, not knowing why they were acting like this all of a sudden.

"My lord, we are really not cursed, please believe us."

"Don't burn us, don't burn my children."

The words of the two of them directly startled Karis, and his voice became sharp, "What, curse!"

"Master, let's get out of here quickly."

He strode forward, trying to pull Lin En away, but he didn't.

Lin En frowned slightly, with a serious face, "Tell me carefully, what's going on."

Since the mission did not mark the curse, but explained it with troublesome things, then it should not be a curse problem.

Farr didn't expect that the lord was really willing to listen to their explanation, so he hurriedly explained the reason of the matter, fearing that the lord would be impatient and call this a curse.

"You said the furniture turned into dust for no reason?" Lynn asked.

"Yes!" Farr nodded, "I don't know what's going on. When I woke up, the furniture that had been laid in the house turned into a pile of debris."

"Do you still have the scraps?"

Farr quickly brought over the container, which contained a large amount of powder, some of which were lumpy with traces on them, and others were in powder form. Lynn rubbed them with his fingers, leaving a residue on his fingers. A fine powder.

Looking at these scraps, Lynn had some guesses in his mind.

Karis on one side said: "This is not what a curse is. Only a curse can do such a thing. Young master, let's hurry up. If you are infected with a curse, you will die miserably."

Farr was worried, he was really afraid that the adults would say these curse words, because it meant that their whole family would be burned alive.

Lynn didn't say a word, stood up, looked around, and his eyes fell on the window.

He picked up the chair and slammed it heavily on it.

The window sill shattered, and a large amount of powder floated out. There was a smile on the corner of Lin En's mouth, which was exactly what he thought.

He put the chair down and said: "The problem has been found. The root cause of the furniture turning into dust is not the curse, but them."
