Juliana’s workshop Chapter 5: I wish you a smooth journey


   the next morning. Before the dew on the leaves fell on the ground and the air was still a little bit cold, the entire convoy woke up one after another, packed their camping tools, stuffed their luggage back into the wagon, and fed the horses dried Pasture, ready to move forward today.

   Not long after being active in the convoy, Romeo Na who was in the cabin also woke up. Yesterday she talked with Lulu Naka for a long time until the sky was full of stars. After being urged by Olga, she let Lulunaka leave. Lulu Naka is a funny girl, lively and cheerful, and occasionally can always say something that is interesting or unexpectedly thought-provoking. She herself says “this is the wisdom left by grandma.” In just one night, the two girls became friends and got along quite happily.

   Romyona did some simple washing with the help of the maid, and when she left the wooden house, she saw Lulunaka coming here, as if she had just returned from the outside. Lulunaka is still following the depilated dog Ward at her feet. Romeo Na thinks this dog is just as interesting as its owner Lulunaka. She has never seen this dog barking at strangers, as if everyone is an acquaintance of its little owner. Doesn’t it know that this can’t protect its owner? But seeing this dog’s eyes turn bright and bright, it is obvious that it is not a stupid dog-that lazy appearance, as if it is dismissive of everything.

  ”Miss Romeuona, are you ready to leave?” Lulunaka saw the big movement on the side of the convoy, and saw the two maids and Olga both holding big and small bags, and immediately understood what’s going on.

   Padin came over from the convoy and shouted to this side not far away: “We should set off. If we don’t leave, we may have to rest on the edge of the forest tonight, and we won’t be able to reach the next town. Up.”

   “Miss, we should go.” Olga said to Romeo Na. Seeing Romeo Na’s a little reluctant expression, he certainly knew what these young ladies were thinking-she didn’t want to meet just now. Goodbye to his new friends. And he also knew that it was more than that-the poor girl actually just wanted to stop, and didn’t want to be further away from her hometown. This mood would strengthen with time and distance. Even if the place where she was born and raised was not a happy place for her.

   Olga’s job is to keep her young lady away from King’s Castle, across the mountains, to the opposite of the sea, to a place that is so far away that she can’t miss her hometown.

   Romeona nodded, she understood Olga’s meaning. No matter how reluctant, she will leave after all.

   Olga walked to Lulunaka and gave Luluna a handful of silver coins. The amount was a bit large enough to live in the most expensive room of a comfortable inn for several days, not a forest. Cabin in the house. “Alchemy girl, thank you for your help. And thank you for making my lady feel better.”

   Olga saluted Lulunaka and took the maids to the convoy first. He didn’t want his young lady to have any resentment towards him, she could still have the time to say goodbye.

  Romiona walked to Lulunaka, “I should go.” She said very concisely, as if saying one more word would make her mood worse, and she was also afraid of what she said The extra words make this parting more difficult.

  Lulunaka took out a thing from her waist pocket and put it in Romiuona’s hand. “Miss Romeuona, please accept this.”

  Lulunaka gave Romiuona a small cloth bag, rough and not exquisite, but clean and firm, sewn tightly, as tight as a kneaded dough. There seemed to be something in the thin cloth, allowing Romeo Na to smell a fresh scent.

   “Some dried flowers and grass seeds, as well as wild spices from the forest.” Lulunaka said, “I know, this is not something that can come into your eyes, Miss Romyona, but this It can effectively repel bugs. I think it should be something you can use for your journey. If there is no fragrance, just throw it away.”

   “No, I will cherish it.” Romeoona held onto the gift Lulunaka gave her, “Thank you, Lulunaka.”

  At this time, Olga’s voice came over, “The carriage is ready, miss, it’s time to leave.”

   Lulunaka also heard Olga’s call, “It’s time to say goodbye, Miss Romeuona.” She patted her hands, probably trying to take the dust off her hands. , But her hands are very clean, there is actually no need to do so. “Can I shake a hand with you?” She looked cautious, as if she wanted to say goodbye to Romeo Na.

   “Of course you can.” Romyona stretched out her hand and shook Lulunaka’s hand. She could feel the touch of Romyona’s hand, a bit rough, but warm. It was completely different from her delicate and white hands that hadn’t done any rough work.

   The two of them held their hands together, and they were speechless for the time being. Then Romeo Na said: “Goodbye, Lulu Naka.”

   “Goodbye, Miss Romiuona.” Lulunaka smiled and said goodbye to Romiuona, “It’s nice to meet friends like you-I always thought that nobles are superior. I recognize you as a kind person like Miss Romiuona. I hope we can meet again someday.”

   Romiuona also smiled, and shook Lulunaka’s hand back, “Me too. If we can meet again, it would be great.”

  ”I wish you all the best, Miss Romeuona.”

   “I wish you a stable life, Lulunaka.”

   The two let go of their hands. Romeo Na walked in the direction of the convoy, Lulu Naka stayed in place. When she walked to Olga’s side, she turned around and could still see Lulunaka looking here. Luluunaka, who noticed Romyona’s sight, waved her hand and said goodbye to Romyona with her gesture.

   “Let’s go, miss.” Olga said.

   Romyona waved to Lulunaka and turned around, not looking at Lulunaka again. “Let’s go.”

   Olga looked at Romeuona’s lost expression in his eyes. Having served Romeo Na for several years, Olga understands Romeo Na’s feelings. She has no friends of the same age. The only maid around her is a woman who is a dozen years older than her and can’t talk. Now, when she meets a girl like Lulunaka who is friendly, simple-minded, and smiles like a flower, Romeo Na will do this. It’s not surprising to think of her as a friend. However, one is a commoner alchemist living in the forest, and the other is a noble girl who wants to marry away from the West. This friendship comes quickly, and may also go quickly. As for meeting again, that is probably just an unfulfilled wish.

   Olga helped Romiuona into the carriage and let her sit securely in it, “Miss, I’m a few dozen years older than you, and I’ve been to many places. I used to travel around the Yilan Continent. , I have been to the north of the Dark Sea, the Giant Beast Plain in the north, and the desert sea further east of the Yilan Continent… I have known many people and said goodbye to many people, most of them are one Don’t see anyone who has no chance to meet again.”

   Romeuona didn’t speak, but listened to Olga quietly.

   Olga continued: “Meeting may only happen in an instant, and in many cases it cannot continue forever. But the friendship and memories brought by the encounter can be preserved for a lifetime.”

   Romeona smiled a bit more after hearing Olga’s words, she looked a lot brighter, “Thank you, Olga.”

   “My pleasure, miss.” Olga said. There are some things he didn’t say at the same time. When he travels around, he most often meets not friends, but people with bad intentions.

   Friendship lasts forever, and hatred is also unforgettable.

   Olga brought her horse, turned on the horse, and followed Romyona’s carriage, “You will know more friends in the future, Miss Romyona—you will be rich and A free country, get more friendship, even love.”

   “With a marriage contractor who has never met at all, don’t know whether it is young or old, beautiful or ugly?”

  Romiona’s words made Olga a little embarrassed. She didn’t know how to answer, so she could only cover up with a few coughs, “I think at least he must be a good person.”

   “I hope so too,” Romyona said. Then she let the maid lower the curtain, and became the unmarried aristocratic girl who was reserved by the aristocracy and could not show her face.

   The convoy moved slowly, with the sound of horseshoes, rolling wheels, and the loud voices of mercenaries. These sounds mixed with the flying dust and swept towards the front of the road.

  Lulunaka watched the convoy leave until only smoke was visible. “Good luck, Miss Romeuona.”

   Ward, who had always looked slack, raised his head and looked towards the road. Its dark eyes did not actually fall on the road, but on the bushes on the side of the road.

   “A little tail.” Lulunaka suddenly said such a sentence, I don’t know who it is talking to. She returned to the nursery in front of the wooden house to check whether the flowers and plants she had carefully cultivated had borers.

   Ward’s eyes didn’t turn, and his head didn’t move, as if it had become a sculpture, he continued to stare at the bush.

   The bush trembled, as if it had come back to life—probably because it couldn’t bear to be stared at by the completely immobile eyes of a depilatory dog—small branches and leaves fell to the ground, and a person fell from Crawled out of there.

   That is the boy in the village, Julius. Obviously, Padin’s warning only bluffed him for a while, and didn’t really hit the young man’s courage, enthusiasm, and recklessness. If Padin was still here and saw Julius emerge from the bushes just beside the road, he would be very surprised, and then angry: whether it was a knight, a mercenary, or himself, it seemed that he hadn’t noticed it. The teenager is close at hand. If this is an assassin, then they are seriously negligent and incompetent.

   Ward’s head fell back, no longer looking at Julius. Lulunaka squatted on the edge of the flowers and greeted Julius, who was kneeling on the ground and at the same sight height as her, “Hello.”

   Julius didn’t respond with the same greeting. He stood up and patted the dust off his body. “It’s strange, I’ve never seen you in the forest. I’ve been on this road many times, although it’s very remote. , Few people would choose this road, more people or caravans would choose the road close to the sea to the east… But I have never seen or heard people passing through the village say, what cabins are there? Near here.” He looked at Lulunaka with a suspicious look. “The village chief said that there is a witch who eats children in the forest, who will use witchcraft to hide her residence…could it be you? Right.”

   “I am an alchemist.” Lulunaka said, “If I were a witch, I would have thrown you into a pot and cooked and eaten.” She looked at Julius, “But like you Even a witch won’t like it. Go get some wolf ribs and roast them. I think it’s better than eating you.”

   Julius touched his stomach, then touched his head, “It’s nothing, it’s not worth it.” After saying this, there was a strange noise in his stomach.

   “Wait a minute.” Lulunaka said to Julius, then returned to the cabin and came out soon. When she came out, she was holding some dried meat and bread wrapped in large leaves, “I can’t finish these things, they are about to go bad, so I will give them to you.”

  Lulunaka’s kindness made Julius unresponsive for a while, even though he had doubts in his heart, he accepted it. He followed in the middle of the night, followed the convoy secretly for the middle of the night, had nothing to eat, and was really hungry. And this girl who is suspected to be a witch has said that she can’t eat any meat and has no children.

   Maybe you want to fatten him up and then kill him? Thinking of this possibility, Julius’ body trembled. But the food was already in his hand, and he didn’t plan to return it again. And he is not going to stay here, but he will continue to follow the team, think about any way to please the knight master, teach him a half way. If you follow the team, even if this very suspicious “witch” wants to eat him, there is no chance, right? Besides, he had forgotten how long he hadn’t eaten meat. He had already asked about the salty taste of dried meat, which caused the worms in his stomach to continue to scream.

   Julius, who played such a small abacus, carried the food Lulunaka had given him in his arms. “Thank you.” At any rate, he knows some politeness and understands to thank others-and he is indeed quite courageous, daring to take food from someone he suspects to be a witch.

   “Are you from the village near the forest? Why follow the convoy?” Lulunaka asked. Before Julius could answer, Lulu Naka went on to say, “I see, you came with that lady. This is not a story worth telling. A beautiful girl must be A heroic knight, not a commoner child of a village.”

   Julius blushed, not because of shyness, but annoyance, “I came here to learn martial arts!” he shouted.

   “Study martial arts?” Lulunaka looked very interested when she heard strange things. “Why? Is it to defend against the beasts, or to eliminate the robbers? Or to become a soldier under the banner of the Crescent, to fight for a conqueror’s wealth?”

   Julius shook his head, “These goals are too small and too narrow.” When he said this, he looked serious and raised his head, as if it would make him great. “I want to hunt wild beasts and make the flying dragons in the valley tremble because of me; I also want to annihilate the robbers and let all the bard songs send me deeds; and I want to be the general commanding thousands of troops and make the enemy tremble, Let the people admire…I, want to be a hero!”

   A child who was underage and was so skinny that he was undernourished was talking boastful in front of another child, talking about dreams that were so far away that they couldn’t be touched…or a dream. Julius often said this in the village, and was ridiculed and ridiculed by children of the same age or villagers.

   Now, Lulunaka, who is in front of him, doesn’t show sarcasm, let alone make fun of him for his ignorance. She just looked interested, looking at Julius who was upright.

   After saying this, Julius remembered that he was not here to chatter, “I should go, or it will be difficult to keep up with the team.” He turned and dived into the jungle again~IndoMTL.com~ is leaving Qian turned around and shouted a word of thanks to Lulunaka, and then disappeared completely.

   “What a rude person.” Lulunaka still maintained a smile on her face, looking calm. Ward lay on the side, snorting, seeming to agree with his master.

  Lulunaka squatted on the edge of the nursery again, holding a small shovel in her hand, turning the soil and fertilizing the plants. She has been busy in front of the wooden house, returning to the wooden house from time to time to find something, until noon.

  Romiona left, Julius left, and four more people came. Four mercenaries with inferior leather armor, hatchets, long swords, and maces. With a look of ill will on their faces, their dirty gazes wandered around Lulunaka. “Little girl, do you have any good things here?” The mercenary headed with an ugly smile on his face, gritted his teeth and made a bad sound.

   Lulunaka stood up, holding a plant that had been pulled up in her hand. Her smile is still as brilliant as a flower.

   “Masters, what can I do for you? Is it the medicinal herb that I want to treat, or I want to eat and drink to fill my stomach… Or, are you kind enough to give me fertilizer?”

  Lulunaka’s words surprised the mercenaries. They didn’t understand why Lulunaka mentioned fertilizer. And Lulunaka’s reaction didn’t panic at all, as if she didn’t know what would happen next. They just froze for a moment, and then laughed. “Sorry, we just left everything that can be used as fertilizer when we came.” The mercenaries slowly approached Lulunaka, as if they were hunting a little rabbit.

   “It doesn’t matter, there are still many things on your body that can be used as fertilizer, but you don’t know it.”

  Lulunaka smiled.
