The next work, with the careful cooperation of everyone, was finally completed without any danger.
Looking at the large pumpkin without any scars placed in front of them, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief, and a smile flashed on their faces.
The next thing to do is to send it safely to the castle of Balgruuf.
Nowadays, in Xueman City, a large number of indigenous monks who have accepted the mission of destruction have been mixed in, and some of them have already started to take action impatiently.
Just when the Tiger Captain and the others went to the streets to investigate the news, they saw riots taking place in more than one place in Snowrun City, and from time to time, billowing smoke would rise from Snowrun City.
When carrying out sabotage missions, setting fire is obviously a good choice!
Whenever an unexpected situation arises, Xueman City soldiers will rush over with dark faces, swords in hand and murderous weapons in hand.
The overtime work in recent days has made these Snowman City soldiers extremely tired. Now whenever they find some free time, the Snowman City soldiers will quickly catch up on their sleep to restore their lost energy.
So for these troublemakers, Xueman City soldiers wanted to cut them into pieces!
However, most of the indigenous monks who accepted the mission were experienced adventurers, and they were very good at setting fires and causing trouble, so these frustrated Snowman City soldiers could not catch them at all.
Looking at the destroyed buildings in the city, the Xueman City soldiers were so angry that they gritted their teeth, but there was nothing they could do.
The city garrison officer wanted to send soldiers to garrison all key areas, but the current manpower shortage made it impossible to do this.
Therefore, the soldiers of Xueman City had to suffer. They could only run from the east of the city to the west of the city, and then from the south of the city to the north of the city. They were exhausted from the tossing and complained endlessly.
Under this circumstance, Xueman City's defense strength has been greatly improved again. Soldiers of Xueman City holding spears can be seen everywhere on the streets, constantly looking at the passers-by with suspicious eyes.
Balgruuf's castle also temporarily had many more soldiers guarding it, and the atmosphere became quite tense.
Therefore, the sooner Tiger Captain and the others take action, the better. If they delay further, they may never have the chance to strike again.
…
Early the next morning, the morning light fell on the snowy city, and the noisy day began.
Old Jim was responsible for delivering fresh vegetables to the castle every day. He got up early and fed his old horse some fodder, then hitched the carriage and walked out of the house.
The vegetables and ingredients consumed in the castle every day have fixed supply locations. Old Jim only needs to go around to collect them and transport them to the castle.
Today, as usual, he drove through the dense flow of people and arrived at a farm outside the city.
Next to the wooden house on the edge of the farm, piles of fresh ingredients stained with morning dew have already been placed. Their fresh and juicy appearance is very pleasing to the eye.
Today, in addition to the usual ingredients and vegetables, there are also a bunch of fresh pumpkins, which are not only huge in size, but also quite pleasing in appearance.
"Haha, what a big pumpkin!"
Old Jim jumped down from the carriage, said with admiration, and at the same time reached out and patted the pumpkins.
"Hehe, of course, the best pumpkin on our farm will naturally be given to the lord to enjoy!"
When he saw Old Jim patting the pumpkin hard with his hands, the farm manager's mouth twitched, and he was so nervous that his hat was almost pushed up by his long ears.
However, he returned to normal in an instant and changed the topic to other places.
“Okay, it’s getting late, hurry up and load these vegetables into the truck, I have to deliver them to the castle!
If you miss the mark, be careful of the whip from the kitchen supervisor."
Old Jim roared in a pretentious manner, and the person in charge of the farm quickly smiled and nodded, calling to the workers not far away to move forward to carry the vegetables and load them into the truck.
In order to prevent other vegetables from being crushed, the first ingredients to be loaded onto the truck are naturally those very large pumpkins.
Seeing the workers carefully carrying the pumpkins onto the car, Old Jim praised them and said that these workers were very discerning.
You must know that poor presentation of ingredients will also cause dissatisfaction with the castle's kitchen manager, and Old Jim will also be scolded.
A pile of vegetables was quickly loaded, and old Jim jumped on the carriage and drove toward the city without saying hello.
Upon seeing this, the person in charge of the farm nodded to a worker, who followed him quietly.
On the way back to the castle, seeing more and more outsiders, Old Jim sighed. Snowman City has become more and more lively because of the appearance of the demons from outside the world.
The merchants have benefited from this, but the public security has become extremely bad. I don't know whether it is good or bad?
Perhaps because of the Lord's absence, these outsiders have become unscrupulous and dare to openly cause trouble in the city. They really don't know whether to live or die!
Once the Lord of the City exterminates the demons from outside the world and returns to Xueman City, these guys who dare to cause trouble will definitely be severely punished by the Lord.
Perhaps it won't be long before rows of hanged corpses appear on the gallows outside Xueman City.
I miss this scene so much!
Humming a dirty tune along the way, Old Jim drove the carriage and slowly arrived at the back gate of the castle.
Seeing that there were twice as many soldiers guarding the door as usual, the old chicken mother quickly jumped out of the carriage, nodded and bowed to say hello, completely without the arrogant look she had on the small farm just now.
Because Old Jim delivers food to the castle every day, these soldiers are already very familiar with him, so after seeing Old Jim, they simply said hello and began their daily routine inspection.
The bundles of vegetables were turned over, and there was basically no problem. As for whether they were poisoned, these soldiers could not check them at all. Instead, they were tested by specialized personnel.
During the inspection, the guarding soldiers also saw the large pumpkins placed in the car.
Just like Old Jim's previous action, the inspecting soldier also reached out and patted the huge pumpkin, exclaiming in admiration.
"It's a really good pumpkin, I guess it won't taste too bad either!"
After saying this, the soldier waved to indicate that there was no problem, and then opened the door to let him go.
Old Jim thanked him and immediately led the carriage towards the interior of the castle.
After seeing Old Jim driving the carriage into the castle, the farm workers who had been following the carriage showed a sneer on their lips, then quickly turned around and left, running towards the outside of the city.
In the inner area of the castle, a servant of the castle is constantly busy, preparing for a new day's work.
Even though Balgruuf is not in the castle, the workload of the servants has not decreased at all and they are busy all day long.
After seeing Old Jim arriving, some people who knew him smiled and said hello a few times.
Old Jim also drove the carriage to the kitchen door with a smile on his face.
The servants who had been waiting for a long time immediately gathered around the carriage and began to unload a whole cart of vegetables as usual.
The head chef looked at these fresh vegetables, nodded with satisfaction, and complimented them casually.
When Old Jim heard this, he immediately smiled.
The vegetables were quickly picked, cleaned, and sent to the kitchen. After the huge pumpkins were also cleaned, the chef prepared to cut them up with knives and steam them.
But just as the kitchen knife cut into one of the pumpkins, a terrifying flame suddenly burst out, swallowing up the entire kitchen instantly...
