Mi Yali also replied very unhappy: "That person is a friend of Meidanzuo. Before he left, he specially told him that if that person came to visit, he must stay at home and wait for him to come back... Once Meidanzuo goes For so many days, I just want to temporarily borrow some household items, you have spent so many days to come!"

Enuo: "Recently, business has not been very good. I just bought a large amount of goods and my money is a bit tight. Isn't this delivered to you as soon as I have money?"

Mi Yali: "How can a large purchase mean that the business is not easy to do? I have never paid back the money I borrowed from you. Didn't Mei Danzuo pay it back when he got home?"

Enuo said embarrassingly: "Sister, I heard that Mei Danzuo went away for a long time this time and did not come back after the agreed time limit. This has never happened before. He hasn't gone out for more than a year. , I know that the business he is doing is not very safe. I am afraid that the situation will change this time. Maybe something happened and he can't come back?... You are already married, and it is not an option to always ask your natal family to borrow money. Whatever the situation is, I advise you to think about it for yourself."

Mi Yali's face changed, and the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became, but she said angrily, "I just asked you to borrow some money, why do you have so many words!"

Enoch: "Sister, I am also thinking of you! You were the most beautiful girl in the street, but you married the son of a down-and-out family named Medanzo. They used the last shop as a dowry gift, and now only This old house. If Medanzuo can't come back, will you have to sell the house or rent out the house? I've heard the neighbors talking about it!

Now that you are still young and beautiful, but live by the unreliable Medanzo, don't you think about your future? What happened to that man, you asked me to borrow money but you left him at home to entertain him? Is he a friend of Medanzo's, a creditor, or someone from you? "

The siblings chattered about homely things, and the more they talked, the more Mi Yali was talking, and Mi Yali was in a mess and had no backbone. I don't know what she was thinking, but she leaned into her brother's ear and whispered: "That young man named Amon is very rich, but he doesn't want to be exposed when he walks on the road. It's dirt... Later, I lived in the best room in the inn, went to the tailor shop to buy expensive fur clothes, and when my maid went to pick up the clothes, he helped to pay two gold coins!"

Enuo was taken aback: "When did Medan Zuo make such a generous friend? Do you know who he is from? Since he is so rich, why did he wear worn clothes on the way here? Is there any secret that is inconvenient for others?" Did you find it?"

The chatterbox couldn't stop once it was opened, and Mi Yali finally told her younger brother about today's new discovery that there were a lot of sacred stones and gold coins in the purse that Amon left in the room, enough to buy a house bigger than the aristocratic ancestral house in the capital. better house. Enuo changed his expression and said, "Take me to have a look! Oh my God, he must be a fugitive. If something happens to Medanzuo and you keep another criminal at home, you will be in big trouble."

The siblings went upstairs to check Amon's things again, and Enoch also saw the money and the horse-leather walking stick disguised as a tree branch. After going downstairs, he wiped his sweat and was short of breath, but said in a low voice, "This man must be an outlaw! Medanzuo actually wants you to receive such a person at home."

Mi Yali also became frightened: "He is holding a token from the ancestor of the Metanzuo family. It is said that it was left by a magician. Do you think this person is a magician?" The legend of the ancestor is a family secret, but Mei Danzuo also mentioned to his wife that Mi Yali would naturally keep the family secret, but today she couldn't help telling Enoch again.

The two murmured in the room for another afternoon, and they "affirmed" a few things: Amon was an illegal black market businessman, he was very rich, and he carried a large amount of stolen money with him; when Amon came to the capital, he was A person, and no one else knows who he is, what he will do, and when he will leave. At the same time, they suspected that something happened to Medan Zuo and he might not be able to come back, and Amon might be a magician.

The more Mi Yali thought about it, the more frightened she became, but Enoch whispered something in her ear again, which made her turn pale with fright, and waved her hands again and again: "I dare not, I'm just a woman, how can I do such a thing Woolen cloth?"

Enoch gave her courage and said: "Dear sister, you don't have to be afraid, just do what I say, and I can handle the rest. Just find a chance to trick him to a place in the suburbs where no one is around." , anyway, no one knows him, and they won't know where he went...Medan Zuo will never come back, what kind of life do you want to continue to live?"

Mi Yali said hesitantly: "What if, I mean, what if Mei Danzuo comes back and asks?"

Enoch shrugged his shoulders: "It's easy to handle. Just say that Amon thought that Medanzuo would never come back, so he seduced the maid at home, and even wanted to molested you, and you have already been driven away. You are such a beautiful and charming woman." Woman, he is a young single man with a lot of money, it is normal for this kind of thing to happen, buy Fusha first, and she and I will testify to you!... Besides, after this thing is successful, you still have to follow Meidan Are you having a good time?"

Mi Yali lowered her head again and said anxiously: "If Amon is really a magician, once the plan is revealed..."

Enoch held the corner of the table with his hands, and with veins throbbing on his forehead, he gritted his teeth and said, "Get exposed? Does he dare to reveal his identity? Once exposed, he will only flee from the capital far away!...Don't forget that I am also a warrior, How old is he, and how capable is he even as a magician? Whether he does mental arithmetic or not, a magician cannot escape being personally assassinated by a warrior."

Mi Yali exclaimed, covered her eyes with her hands and said, "Don't mention assassination in front of me, don't say it so scary!... But what if he finds out that you are carrying a murder weapon with you and becomes suspicious?"

Enoch narrowed his eyes and said, "How can I not bring a knife when I go out for a picnic? As a warrior, it's normal for me to carry a weapon with me. How could he be suspicious of our warm hospitality? You wouldn't have lived at home for such a long time... Before that, I suggest that you let Fusha get close to him, it's best to hook him into bed, and try to find out more details, so that you can be more confident. "

Some people say that there are always novel things under the sun, it depends on whether your eyes can find them? It is also said that there is nothing new under the sun, you can always see the shadow of deja vu. Amon just went out to play for a day, but he didn't expect that Mi Yali and Enuo's siblings had already planned to murder for money. He had a similar experience in the town of Sumer, but this time it happened in another form with a different location and characters.

Amon had a great time this day. He went to many places in the capital, saw many things he hadn’t seen before, and bought gifts for the maid Fusha and the groom who accompanied him. The big shop bought a lot of things for the Medanzuo's family in winter, and they packed them in the carriage and brought them back.

When they got home, they met another "guest"—Mi Yali's younger brother Enoch. Enoch smiled all over his face. Although his smile was a bit unnatural, his attitude towards Amon was warm and respectful. He claimed that he had heard that Medanzuo's friends and teachers were visiting, so he specially visited today and told Amon not to You are polite, he also wants to find a chance to treat him well.

Although the unprovoked hospitality surprised Amon, he didn't think too much about it at the time, but when he returned to the room, he realized something was wrong. Someone had moved his things, the branch staff moved a certain distance, and scratched marks on the floor. Although the money bag was still in the leather pocket, it was obviously not where it was originally placed, and the old clothes in the leather pocket had also been opened and refolded.

Obviously, when he was not at home, someone took the opportunity to rummage through his things, and even opened the wallet to count the god stone and gold coins. What is the purpose of doing this? Amon didn't want to embarrass himself or embarrass everyone. After packing up his things again, he decided to leave.

I haven't seen Mei Danzuo go home for so long, did something happen on the way? Amon also had this kind of worry, but before he left, he would leave a sum of money for Mi Yali and leave a message for Mei Danzuo. With this in mind, he still went downstairs to eat quietly.

If it is better than calmness, few people can catch up with Amon, a young miner in Duke Town who has experienced strong winds and waves. Mi Yali didn't see anything at all. Enoch ate dinner with Amon that day, and ordered his servants to buy good wine, and kept persuading him to drink it, appearing very enthusiastic, talking more and more while drinking.

Enoch talked about many things from all over the world, and also asked about Amon's experiences and knowledge in various places, and expressed his sincerity to entertain him well, and apologized for not coming to visit because of his busy business a while ago. He also told Amon that he would let Fusha accompany him to have fun in the city these few days, and he would invite Amon to go on an outing outside the city in a few days, bringing food and wine. There is a place where the scenery and environment are very good, and he himself goes there several times a year to relax.

Amon took this opportunity to say: "I've been bothering you for so long, I'm really sorry, I should leave. If Mei Danzuo comes back, you tell him that I have been here, and he wants to learn the skills that he has not finished, so he can go to Link, he will understand what it means... If you have any difficulties or needs, I will help solve them as a thank you for your hospitality."

When he heard that Amon was leaving, Enoch gave Mi Yali a wink. Mi Yali stepped forward and grabbed Amon's arm, persuading him to wait for a few more days. Maybe Medan Zuo would be back soon. Since he has been waiting for so many days, why should he care about waiting for a few more days? She asked Amon if there was any place where she did not entertain him well, which made him dissatisfied. If so, Medan Zuo would definitely punish her when she came back, and she almost cried in the end.

Many things in the world are so difficult to explain. If Amon had left that night, perhaps what happened later would not have happened. But Amon stayed amidst the pleadings, because Enoch made a suggestion—

Two days later, Gilgamesh, the lord of the Uruk city-state, will leave the capital and return to his own city-state. There will be a grand farewell ceremony. The king ordered the citizens to revel and there will be no curfew that night. At that time, the city will definitely be very lively, and it is not easy to catch up with such a grand event. After watching the excitement, you can go out of the city with the carnival team, and then go on a picnic, just in time to see Amon off.

Thinking that he might be interrogated at the city gate when he left, Amon agreed to leave two days later. As for picnics, let's just say goodbye and leave a few god stones for Mi Yali. The woman looked through his purse, but maybe she didn't have any malice, maybe she was just curious. She should be grateful for her hospitality. If something happened to Medanzo, he should take care of his family's life.

After dinner that day, Amon washed and took a rest. After returning to his room, he was silent again. He seemed to have fallen asleep. He must be very tired after playing all day. And Mi Yali quietly called the maid Fusha to her room, closed the door and said in a low voice: "Fusha, it was because your family owed money, so I used you to pay the debt as my servant. Do you want me to take that Return the contract to you? And Enoch said today that he likes you very much and wants to marry you home as his favorite concubine, my natal family is much more comfortable than here!"

Fusha was overjoyed: "My kind mistress, of course Fusha is willing! Is everything you said true?"

Mi Yali nodded and said: "Of course it's true, but it depends on what you do..." She leaned down and whispered in Fusha's ear for a long time. , finally nodded. Mi Yali patted her on the shoulder again and said: "Remember, just do as I said, go to seduce Amon, make him fall in love with you, try to find out more about his wealth, and completely trust you... You don't need to do chores at home these few days, so you can play with Amon in the capital to your heart's content."

She thought that these words would not be heard by outsiders, but Amon could hear them clearly. It can't be blamed on Mi Yali's imprudence. In fact, there is no magician who has nothing to do and will use the detection magic to sweep around and waste mana needlessly doing meaningless things, and neither will Amon.

During this period of time, Amon has never used the detection magic to spy on Mi Yali's daily life. It is impolite to do so. But since this kind of thing happened today, he was more careful, but he heard such a shocking conversation. Mi Yali asked Fusha to seduce him, inquire about his family background in as much detail as possible, and take him on an outing two days later, pestering him to attract his attention.

These are second to none, and what is even more frightening is that Mi Yali asked Fusha to tell a lie. If Medan Zuo came back in the future, Fusha would testify that Amon had seduced her, and even tried to moles Mi Yali, and was kicked out. Walk away without a face and come back. What Mi Yali meant was obviously that Amon would never see Medanzo again, so other things must have happened, which were not done by this maid. Could it be that she wanted to murder him and make him disappear forever

Amon felt a chill, but he didn't want to take revenge on Mi Yali, so let this woman and her servants daydream by themselves. Amon planned to leave without saying goodbye, and quietly left Metanzuo's mansion tonight. He just wanted to pack up and leave, but found someone outside the house, because Amon was using the detection magic to scan the surrounding movement, and he noticed it by coincidence.

Mei Danzuo finally returned home, and he has gained a lot this time. Link's tribe encountered a flood at the foot of the mountain. After the flood receded, a large amount of high-quality horse leather ore was collected, which was obtained from around the pool where the Iron Armored Beastmaster lived. What surprised him even more was that before Amon left, he subdued the Iron-clad Beast King and the four big Iron-clad beasts and became the guardian beasts of the tribe.

This is the miracle of Amon! Although Mei Danzuo didn't see Amon, he respected him even more in his heart.

In order to wait for the people in the tribe to smelt all the ore into horse leather blanks, and to pester Link to teach him the magic that he had never learned before, Mei Danzuo stayed in the tribe for a month longer than originally planned, and only then did he shoulder the heavy burden. luggage on the way home. This time, what he brought was all horse leather embryos, counting the value of several sacred stones, and he was very happy.

Amon was really amazing, and he was so generous and kind. Before he left, he left such a precious staff for Link, and Medan Zuo salivated enviously. Link told him that Amon had gone on a tour of the mainland, and that he would probably go to Barron City to find him, and Medan Zuo was also eager to see Amon. Although he came home a bit late this time, he had told his wife that he would definitely keep Amon and treat him well until he came back.

There are many interesting places in the capital, and there are too many novel things that cannot be seen in the mountains. Amon will definitely have a good time!

Mei Danzuo entered the city when it was dark and the city gates were about to close. He first found a black market merchant who had privately bought horse leather steel, sold a bag of goods, and exchanged two sacred stones and a dozen gold coins. He and the black market businessman were very happy, and they met to go to the tavern for a drink, and then walked home humming a little song with light steps, and it was completely dark at this time.

It has been so long since she saw her husband, and now that she has made so much money this time, Mi Yali will be so happy that she will jump into his arms with screams and cheers—Medanzuo thought in her heart.

Turning around a street and entering the alley, he saw the gate of his own mansion in front of him, Mei Danzuo quickened his pace naturally, but suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand to hold the hilt of the sword at his waist, and the other hand was also in his arms. He grabbed a divine stone because he felt that someone was staring at him from behind, and that person was standing in the shadow under the high wall.

"Meidanzuo, you don't have to be afraid, it's me, Amon." A familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ear, Meidanzuo let go of the hilt of his sword overjoyed, turned around and strode towards him.

"Amon, my God! How did you appear here? I was shocked, but it was the biggest surprise. Have you just arrived? I happen to be going home at this time, please come with me." Medanzuo walked up to Amon and saluted first, then reached out and grabbed his arm to lead him back home.

Amon grabbed his wrist: "No, don't worry, I've been staying at your house for a month, and I just went out to meet you when I found out you came back. To be honest, I'm already planning to leave quietly tonight."

Medanzuo was taken aback again: "Why? Could it be that someone has neglected you?... Well, did something happen?" While speaking, he had noticed that Amon had cast a simple but ingenious magic technique of space protection, trapping Noticing the surrounding sounds, the figures of the two of them also became hazy and unrecognizable in the shadow under the high wall.

Amon could leave without saying hello to Mi Yali, but he had to make it clear in front of Mei Danzuo that he didn't owe Mei Danzuo anything, and he didn't want Mei Danzuo to be deceived after he left. What Mi Yali, Enuo, Fusha and others might say, Amon decided to tell the truth, and also to see how Medan Zuo would react. If it is not worth dealing with, then there is no need to deal with it.

"It's inconvenient to talk here, come with me quietly, there is something I want to tell you." Amon waved at Medanzuo, turned and left the alley. Mei Danzuo was confused, but followed Amon without saying a word.

The two walked through several blocks and found a big inn far away. Amon took the best room, and there was a separate hallway outside the bedroom. He closed the door and told Mei Danzuo to sit down, took out some sacred stones and arranged a magic circle to isolate sound and mana fluctuations, then took out the pupil of the earth, put it on the table, and pointed with his hand: "Listen yourself!" Bar."

The whispers of two people sounded in Mei Danzuo's ear, which was the conversation between Mi Yali and Fusha. Amon was also careful, and when he heard the conversation, he used the information magic to record it in the pupil of the earth. Of course he is not as clever as the old lunatic in using this method, but it is still possible to record a not too long conversation at the level of a fifth-level magician. The best carrier of magic.

Mei Danzuo's face changed, he stood up holding his sword and wanted to rush out, Amon reached out and pressed his shoulder and said: "Don't be impulsive, I just want to tell you what happened, not what I want you to do. It's useless for you to blame them now, no one will admit this kind of thing, I just want to leave quietly before everything happens."

Mei Danzuo turned around and knelt down in front of Amon suddenly: "God Amon, I beg your forgiveness and forgiveness!"

Amon reached out to help him: "Why do you say that, it's not your fault!"

But Mei Danzuo didn't get up, bowed his head and said, "If you just leave like this, I don't know how I will see you again?... Leaving is a kind of relief for you, but it has become my shackles!"

Amon: "All of this didn't happen, and it might not happen. It's just their random thoughts. Many people may have had all kinds of crazy thoughts in their hearts. This is not an unforgivable sin, but the temptation of the devil in the world."

Medanzuo: "In that case, let me see the true face of this devil! My God Amon, can I ask you to promise me one thing, otherwise my heart will not be at peace."

Amon looked at him with questioning eyes: "What's the matter, tell me."

Medan Zuo didn't go home that night, and Amon didn't leave the next day either. Everything was as usual, as if nothing had happened. Mi Yali and her maid Fusha had no idea that Amon had met Medanzo yesterday.
