The resistance of adults is indeed stronger than that of children, but Otto obviously still overestimates the situation of raising deer people.

He saves others by himself, naively thinking that the children of the deer-raiser can be as tough as the children of the Ross tribe. As a result, after some inspection by Haroldoson, there are already three children who are completely as hard as ice.

The remaining four children, they are obviously a little older. Although the situation is not very good, their bodies are still chilly, and they still have a pulse if they are crooked.

"There are four more alive." Harrodsson sighed.

"Well, I thought they were all dead."

"Chief, although the children are still alive, I think their situation is one step away from death. These prisoners are afraid that they will die these days. They are destined to be taken away by the Valkyrie."

"Maybe that's it." Otto shook his head. He valued the looted deer more than caring about these captives. "The deer breeders are dead. Who among us is better at raising deer than these?"

Harrodsson reluctantly said: "Oh, maybe raising deer is not difficult, we just need to drive them to the hillside to graze the grass. Didn't you also say that our Roseburg was a pasture for deer people a long time ago."

"I'm afraid to bring the deer back. They quickly turn into barbecue and enter the stomach. I can't expect my wife to raise deer. It seems that I still need some professional deer breeders. If I fail, I will take the deer. Eat it all."

"Then try to save the remaining prisoners." Haro Zossen squeezed his chin and muttered. "It is estimated that the chances of the four of them returning to Roseburg alive are very slim. We should try our best. Although they are still children, they are at least better than us. Know how to raise deer."

"Alright. Now, I have to take care of these people."

Otto is very happy. The future servant he chose for his son Rylik, this girl did not get frozen to death by chance.

He already remembered the girl's immature appearance, and even the rather complicated braids she had tied up.

"Harrodsson, take care of the other three children, and try not to let them freeze to death and starve to death. As for this one, I will take care of her myself."

Hearing this, the elderly Harrodsson was taken aback: "Boss, wouldn't you be... Niya... Maybe you should follow his consent."

"Oh? What do you think I want? Hey! How is this possible, I just want her to be my son's servant, nothing more."

"Give Rurik a servant? Then is this girl a bit older?"

"It doesn't matter. It's okay to be a little older, and it's not a problem to not understand our language for the time being. Because Niya and I are already old, we may not be able to accompany Lirik for more years. Poor Lirik, at least I want Leave him a sister to take care of him."

Haro Zuosen nodded: "If so, this girl is really lucky."

"But I still don't understand the intention of the Valkyrie. If the fate of the captives is death, we are powerless. I only hope that my long-cherished wish can be fulfilled."

Otto did not actually notice that the reason why many children were frozen to death was that the clothes were too thin.

In order to allow his son's servant to insist on returning to Roseburg, he began to pay attention to the girl's warmth and more concerned about her mental condition.

When a piece of animal skin was draped over her, the girl's condition gradually improved. When his spirit recovered slightly, Otto immediately handed him a piece of dried bacon.

"You chew slowly, try not to starve to death."

Hunger is hard to resist. The girl who had been dying has just recovered, she can't wait to eat bacon.

The saltiness stimulated her instinct to eat. Perhaps she had eaten more salt for this meal than she had eaten in a year.

Otto was still afraid that she would struggle to escape, and when she finished eating the meat and wrapped in fur, he continued to tie her hands and feet, and hugged her to the sled.

Regardless of the unintelligible language of the girl, he firmly fixed it on the sledge, and the whole person was like a cargo. For the rest of the time, she watched the group of barbarians quietly toward the south. Keep going.

She didn't know where she came from, and she didn't notice the situation of her family.

However, the actual situation is very tragic!

Harrodsson did not take good care of the other three people. He argued that "God took their lives." The real situation is that Harrodsson did not pay attention to the warmth of the prisoners and was helpless with the high fever.

On the fourth night of the return journey, the three children he took care of all turned into cold "stones" in the cold wind and were abandoned in the snow.

It turned out to be like this, Otto did not blame his old friend.

Because the team had already arrived at the camp with a large number of deer, they had already started the fastest return journey according to the road signs set when they came.

Those who stayed in the big camp waited for many days, and saw that the leader returned with the deer triumphantly, and regretted that they did not follow.

Of course Otto did not blame these people.

Once upon a time, everyone has said that the location of Roseburg is close to the edge of the human world. If you continue to go further north, you will fall into the dark world under the world tree.

The fear of the unknown world restrains the desire for exploration of many so-called fainthearted, and Otto's triumph is a reward for the brave.

Otto is even somewhat fortunate now. If everyone is involved, it is obviously impossible for him to have a hundred deer.

Deer, there are still too many.

Along the way, he had to focus on taking care of a deer-raising girl. He soon developed a strange feeling. As he got closer and closer to Roseburg, this feeling became stronger.

In principle, this is a gift for the son, as his servant, but the girl essentially wants to be a member of her own family.

Because Otto is not stupid enough to use servants as "talking tools", this girl still has a lot of work before her son grows up.

I have to do all kinds of handyman in my long house, I have to help my wife Niya as a tailor, I have to take care of my son's daily life, and I have to take on the responsibility of a deer breeder-raising deer.

With so much labor, the host family naturally has to ensure her safety in order to obtain more labor value.

This is like in the Eastern world, a family would treat cattle or a donkey as a family member~www.mtlnovel.com~ But the servants are human after all, Otto can feel the girl's meekness in a few days Like a lamb, now he is simply no longer restrained by ropes.

In such a field, a wise man will understand that running away can only mean freezing to death.

Otto is not all because of this tangible reason to relieve her restraint, because among all the prisoners, only this one has survived to the present.

The reindeer was pulling the sled, and the team's journey was significantly faster. It's also because everyone is just trying to drive. Every day except for sleep, they basically ride the sled to drive the deer forward, and even some frail deer are directly exhausted to death.

Otto didn't even know the name of the deer-raising girl, but he was very sure that it was the Valkyrie who forgave the girl's life.

plus those dead, a total of nineteen deer breeders will survive. Why is she the only one who lives? !

An amazing thought suddenly came to Otto's mind.

"Yes! I have chosen this person as my son's servant. When I made a decision, the Valkyrie had already seen everything in the sky!"

Otto even gave birth to more interesting associations. The so-called great **** Odin is surrounded by a group of Valkyries as servants, so as the "Blessing of Odin" Rurik, he should have some servants around him.

So if you don't do well and cause this girl to die on the journey, it will inevitably bring disaster to yourself and even Roseburg.

Otto is such a person, especially when he sees the wooden planks treasured by the priest, the whole person's thinking is also the same as that of the priest. He fears Odin more than ordinary Ross people, and has never questioned whether Odin is real.

Now he has made up his mind that he must bring back the last deer breeder and as many deer as possible.
