Chapter 10 poor zobel

Zobel lay alone in the dark den of robbers for an unknown amount of time.If there were no chains on his feet, he would have seen no one slip away.He twisted the chain desperately, twisting and twisting, always twisting and twisting.The chain is extremely strong.There is no way to twist it off. In the evening, Cui Zhenbo returned to his nest cursing.The robber took off his snuff-box from his shoulders, took off his hat and coat, put them in a corner, and lit a candle again. "Oh, Casper, you've been lazy enough until now. From now on, you'll have to work for me." Zobel had to wipe off the mud-spattered boots for the bandit Huo Zhenbo before he was released from the chain.

"Go and light the fire at the hearth! I've got a goose. When the fire is up, we'll fluff the feathers. Put the iron sticks in. I love roast goose, but be careful you don't burn it. Now I'm going to change into my pajamas and take a rest." Zobel roasted the goose after he had fluffed it.He kept turning the iron stick.The smell of roast goose rushed into his nose from time to time.He hadn't eaten anything since this morning, and he had no strength at the moment.I don't know if Huo Zhenbo is willing to leave something for him to eat? But the thief Huo Zhenbo didn't think of him at all. Once the goose was roasted, he shouted loudly:

"Hey, let's serve dinner!" When the roast goose was brought, he ate it up with relish, leaving nothing for Zobel, not even the bones for Zobel to suck. "Ah, it's delicious!" After Huo Zhenbo finished eating, he burped again. "It's nice to have a cup of coffee..." He went to the chest and found the coffee grinder, it was Grandma's coffee grinder!He put coffee beans in the coffee grinder. "Listen, boy!" the thief ordered Zobel. "Grind the coffee beans for me!" Zoebel used grandma's coffee grinder to grind coffee beans for Huo Zhenbo.As soon as the coffee was ground, the song "Beautiful Scenery in May" was played.This was Zobel's reward, and Zobel's unlucky day was a more unfortunate reward than anything else.

"What's the matter with you?" Huo Zhenbo, the robber, saw that Zobel was well-behaved, and suddenly burst into tears, so he asked, "Casper, why are you crying so sadly? I hate people crying so much. You wait, I'm here to make you happy!" After saying that, the robber snatched the hat from Zobel's head. "It's disgusting that you wear this hooligan hat. It doesn't suit you. I'll just throw it away!" It was too late, but soon, the robber snatched the hat from Zobel's head, threw it into the fire and burned it. "Is it fun?" the thief shouted. "I think it's great fun!"

Huo Zhenbo laughed, and Zoebel wept.He finished grinding the coffee beans crying, and Grandma's coffee grinder played the song to his crying. Then Zobel had to polish the robber's boots until they were shiny.After wiping his boots, he was chained.Huo Zhenbo lay down and blew out the lamp. Zobel was heartbroken, he was just homesick and couldn't close his eyes until midnight.He lay on the cold flagstones, between powder kegs and pepper kegs, thinking only of Casper.If Kasper knew that the thief Huo Zhenbo had burned his hat, what would he say?However, the most important thing right now is whether Casper already knows.

"Oh, my God!" sighed Zobel, "unlucky. Both of us are unlucky!" But Zobel finally fell asleep, dreaming of Kasper and his grandmother.They sat in granny's house, drinking coffee and eating cake.The cake was, of course, a candied plum cake topped with whipped cream.Casper put on a Casper hat, and everyone sat comfortably and properly.Zoebel had no chains on his feet, neither did the Thieves Den, nor did Huo Zhenbo. It would be great if this dream was not finished! But the dream ended too soon for poor Zobel.At exactly 6 o'clock in the morning, Huo Zhenbo opened his eyes and woke Zoebel.

"Well, eat, don't starve to death, Casper. I'm going out to do some errands like yesterday. You have nothing to do, so you can relax and rest. It's very comfortable. But tonight, when I come back, I have to let you Work harder. You're much more comfortable than that Zobel. Much more comfortable than your best friend who works at the house of the villainous arch-magic Chowamon!" After all, the robber locked the door, left the robber's den, and went out. "Hey, lazy embryo, get up and work!" Grinding coffee beans, chopping wood, and lighting a fire, Zobel was too busy to rest.Only when Huo Zhenbo was having breakfast, Zobel was allowed to stand beside him and watch.After breakfast, I had to tidy up the room, fetch water, and wash the dishes.After finishing these chores, he had to shake the whetstone for the thief: Huo Zhenbo wanted to sharpen the big machete and seven short knives he used.

"Hey, come on, why are you always dawdling! A whetstone is not an accordion! Shake it, shake it!" After sharpening the seven short knives, the thief Huo Zhenbo pulled Zobel to the corner of the wall where he stayed yesterday, locked the chain, and then threw some musty bread crumbs to Zobel.
