Chapter 844 Sherwood Forest
As Qili threw away the matchsticks, two small car lights shone brightly on the side of the carriage to the distance. The whole road was like a layer of silver, becoming clear and transparent.
"John, are you sure you're right to do this?"
John looked at the two bright lights curiously, and he confirmed that this was the brightest light he had ever seen. But they were escaping from home, shouldn't they act quietly?
"It doesn't matter, our movements will be very fast at night. When it's dawn, as long as we're fast enough, we won't be able to pass long before we can enter the Sherwood Forest, and when we get there we are our world!"
John has no doubt about this. No one is more familiar with the two wild girls, Juliana and Qili, than they have. Even if many people are sent to find their traces, John feels that Qili has changed a lot after this time, and gives people a more independent and cunning feeling. Although she is also a cunning girl herself.
Horse hooves ran very well on the road, and even Qili was creative. When science and engineering came, the cow's hooves were put on horse hooves like shoes, so that they would not have to worry about others tracking them based on the hoof prints. This was a common method used by the Crusaders in dynasties to confuse the enemy.
The road became clear under the lights, and even in the dark, the poker Mr. Gerald, who acted as a coachman, could drive the car quickly. The remaining people were guarding around the carriage, and the small team advanced rapidly at night.
The Sherwood Forest in Nottingham is about 120 miles from London, about 200 kilometers away, and it takes several days to travel. During the day, Kiriel and others will hide in nearby woods or valleys. The journey at night will reduce their troubles.
The Sherwood Forest is a place that is not familiar to Jeriel and John. This forest is about 40,500 hectares, stretching to the edges of several nearby counties, which gives them enough room for maneuver.
The tall trees almost completely covered the sky. Here, you can also see the traces of the activities of Robin Hood and John's uncle Roger. However, as the years go by, the cut trees were covered with moss, and the wood made the shacks covered with mushrooms.
Prince Edward looked at the dark forest and the forest without any residence, and he couldn't help but feel worried. John knew that those who came here for the first time would naturally worry about the environment here, but if he wanted to be a robber, he would inevitably have to live here.
"Little John, please settle them in, I'll find some food!"
All the people living here are poachers. Mr. Gerald looked around with a bitter face, not knowing how to arrange his prince to live.
"You two are waiting here, four samurai, go up the tree with me. Then build your residence as I did! After all this, we will build the road!"
Like Prince Edward's master and servant, the four warriors also came here for the first time to live, and they didn't know what to do.
When she arrived here, Qili fully utilized her wild girl's skills. She appeared on the tall branch just a few times along the big tree. A rope with a rope fell from the sky, and her voice came from the branch.
"Put your feet in, I'll pull you up!"
When the 9-year-old farmer Dehua came to the tall and stout tree branch, he was surprised to find that the world looked completely different from here.
"Believe me, you will have a comfortable place to stay soon."
The sound came from the tree branches above his head, and Prince Edward looked up. There, Geriel had covered his head with a large piece of canvas, and thought it would be impossible to get it when it rained. Then a veil fell from above, and then tied a hammock under the canvas.
"Look, a good room comes out. The canvas can cover the rain, the gauze can block mosquitoes, and the trampoline is soft and comfortable enough. When going up and down, use this rope. The heel is here, control the other rope, and you can easily go up and down!"
Prince Edward looked at all this in surprise, and the oiled canvas fixed to the thick branches were tied to the hammock on the branches, like a roof, and it looked shaky.
"Oh, my God, are we going to live in a tree like a monkey?"
Prince Edward, who was timid and angry with him, turned around and saw his servant. The poker face showed an unnecessary expression at this moment.
"Uhhh, you can actually speak? I said, you should prepare your residence for you, don't be too far away from me, otherwise if there is something wrong, I will not respond to you, that would be bad, do you understand?"
Poor poker Mr. Gerald quickly shut up. He knew that the master didn't want him to talk more, nor did he liked any unnecessary expressions. He looked carefully at Prince Edward's residence, then looked around and found a place for himself to live.
To talk about the road, it is just a bridge between the dense branches and leaves of the tree. Then a rope is crossed above the trunk, which connects the people's residences on the trees. The real hall is a very special place.
It was a very thick tree. The branches on the main pole were divided like fingers, forming a small platform. It was surrounded by some canvas and became the so-called living room.
"Hmph, our living room is nice, especially when I smell the barbecue, I feel better."
John brought a few rabbits and other small animals, and a good dinner, which immediately made Prince Edward forget the inconvenience of his residence. The charcoal burned elsewhere emitted a dark red heat, and under a lantern, the four warriors of Kiriel were barbecuing meat as she ordered.
"Hey, apply more oil and honey, and then the meat is sweet and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Edward can eat such delicious food at home."
While Kiriel was talking, she was holding a big and round apple and gnawing hard. Even Edward could hear the crisp and juicy pulp, which was broken under her teeth.
"Sister Qili, you promised to take me to play!"
Kiriel looked at Edward and found that this kid had ambition to be a robber since he was a child.
"Hey, Edward, what will happen if you talk about a prince who is a robber?"
Prince Edward didn't raise his head, and used the following answer to show that he was full of enthusiasm for the extremely promising career of the robber. He pulled out the dagger in his hand and pointed his teeth at his servant.
