There was a closed sign in front of the bar, Ye Qi walked around the sign, and walked with his legs up amidst the surprised and respectful greetings from the waiters.
"Boss, welcome back!"
The tall, strong waiters bowed and bowed slightly, and then made way for Ye Qi to pass through—although there is a sign, those guys who often touch in the bar sometimes don't understand it very well. Refusal' requires more practical actions to make them understand what they should do is the right thing to do.
Ye Qi nodded slightly, and continued to walk inside.
"Ha! Ye, welcome back!"
Because it wasn't time for the dinner party, there weren't many people on the whole floor, only Cyril, the demon hunter who hurried back from the Thousand Swamps but didn't catch up with the dark creatures, drank alone—in fact, It's not uncommon for people like them to drink enough last night.
Cyril, a demon hunter who uses a huge saber, still wears a slightly worn-out leather armor, as well as messy hair and a messy beard, even if he has taken care of it seriously, he still looks It's a mess, even, Ye Qi is sure that if Cyril didn't care so much, the hair and beard would be better.
Ye Qi gestured to the bartender, took a glass of non-alcoholic drink, lightly clinked the glass with Xi Ruier, and laughed with a 'ding': "Seeing you, guy , I am really very happy!"
Ye Qi naturally had a fresh memory of this first apostle-level demon hunter he had ever met in Landing Castle, and the other party had helped him a lot. It also brought him a lot of trouble; however. In short, the other party is a good person. As for such a person, Ye Qi sincerely welcomes him back.
Ye Qi put down the bar, paused slightly, and asked with a smile: "How is the harvest this time?"
Immediately, Cyril shook her head and sighed: "It's not bad... But compared with this place, it's really too far away! If I didn't go deep into the unexplored area of the Thousand Swamp District, I should be able to catch up In this battle—I like this kind of battlefield more than digging into the ground!"
Ye Qi smiled and said: "Sometimes, it always happens like this—when you think you have gained something, you actually lost more!"
Xi Ruier nodded helplessly, but immediately smiled secretly, and saw the swordsman leaning towards Ye Qi, then pointed to the horses outside, and then pointed to the upstairs. He said softly: "However, I think the second half of the sentence can be continued like this 'When you think you have lost something, you will always get some other compensation'... I think this sentence is really too much... I'd love to see what happens to you!"
Ye Qi simply rolled his eyes and said, "It will definitely not be what you expect to see!"
Xi Ruier shrugged indifferently, picked up the wine bottle next to him and took another sip, and then began to wait with a smile on his face; while Ye Qi frowned slightly, and finally took the non-alcoholic drink , put it lightly on the bar counter, greeted the bartender, and walked slowly towards the second floor.
Meanwhile, Xi Ruier, who was waiting, jumped up immediately, and after drinking the wine in the bottle in one gulp, he followed without missing a step.
The remaining bartender quickly cleaned up the glasses and empty wine bottles, wiped the bar clean again, and then, with a helpless smile, shook his head.
…
Compared with the first floor, the second floor of the bar is not as lively; however, compared with the number of people on the first floor, there are a lot more people here; watching Ye Qi walking up, Yilan All the female rangers headed by Sloat stood up, with twelve pairs of eyes fixed on Ye Qi, without much kindness.
Although they didn't know exactly what was going on until now, the sudden appearance of Chameleon and Linda Norsted during the previous introduction made these rangers who were also women feel something was wrong; Even if they are very seldom exposed to everything in this area, women's nature makes them as sensitive as instinct; especially coupled with Rhinex, who is already a little tricky, twelve rangers who are about to end their teenage years Guys, sitting here can't help thinking wildly.
"Long time no see, Lancelot, Gawain...and everyone!"
Surrounded in the middle, Ye Qi called the female rangers in front of him by the names he remembered; however, such address obviously could not improve the current attitude of these female rangers, they looked at each other. All of a sudden, Gawain stood up - Lancelot would have been the best candidate, but the unclear relationship between the two before made her have no such position at all.
In fact, if possible, Lancelot would never do such an extremely stupid thing-yes, it seemed to her at the time that it was a very smart thing, but at this moment, it seemed to her that it was a very stupid thing. It was a stupid thing to do; though it was painful, it was definitely growth.
Gawain stood in front of Ye Qi under the encouraging eyes of his partners, and asked, "Who are those women named Bernadette Taylor and Linda North?"
Obviously such a direct question caused Ye Qi to ponder for a while, and he replied with a wry smile: "I think I should explain to Els!"
Gao Wen snorted coldly, and said without giving an inch, "Don't you need to practice in front of us in advance?"
Ye Qi smiled wryly and continued, "I don't think it's necessary!"
As he spoke, Ye Qi walked directly inside; Lancelot on the side immediately frowned, and reached out to grab Ye Qi's windbreaker, but she just raised her arm, and the man who was still standing in front of her Ye Qi had already appeared behind her, and the moment she turned around, Ye Qi had already walked out of the encirclement.
The whole process was very fast, and when the girlfriend cavalrymen except Lancelot, the rest of them only felt that it was a blink of an eye, and they lost Ye Qi.
Looking at Ye Qi with an apologetic smile. Lancelot and the female rangers snorted. turned his head. He looked unkindly at Xi Ruier who was still standing on the stairs; immediately, Xi Ruier felt the chill on his back, he raised his hands and shouted loudly: "I am an invited guest , guest...has nothing to do with the previous person!"
Lancelot looked at Cyril coldly and said, "The banquet hasn't started yet, the second floor is temporarily closed!"
Cyril immediately nodded as if she had received amnesty: "Yes, yes!"
As he said that, he trotted down to the second floor. Cyril, who was standing at the stairs on the first floor, thought of the twelve rangers who exuded a strong aura, especially the one in the lead. Not only did he smile wryly, but he murmured in a low voice, "Since when do you have to use your strength as a measure even to watch the excitement?"
This kind of murmur can only be heard by Cyril himself, but anyone can clearly see the distress.
The bartender smiled and asked, "I have a special mead, do you need a glass?"
Cyril immediately shouted: "I want a bottle!"
Seeing him happily accepting the wine bottle, it was obvious that he had almost forgotten the previous things—the life of a demon hunter, in a sense, was unusually monotonous; however. It is because of this monotony that they become more and more simple.
friend. drink wine.
Enemy, draw your sword.
Undoubtedly, Cyril is one of such simple representatives; Ye Qi was also planning to develop in this direction; however, it is a pity that after that inexplicable contract, Danghe represents one of the three major forces in Lorant When the Holy See stands on the opposite side, everything about him becomes involuntary.
At least, for Ye Qi who cherishes life, everything has changed.
…
When they came out from the secret passage leading to the underground hall on the second floor, the two remnant soldiers guarding the entrance of the secret passage immediately said respectfully: "Welcome back, boss!"
One remnant soldier winked at Ye Qi while talking, and the other simply made a gesture; Ye Qi nodded to this, and walked quickly towards the branch road to the most central underground hall.
Step, step, step...
Ye Qi didn't hide his footsteps, he hoped that the people in the hall could also hear them - to give both sides a separate preparation, this is Ye Qi's reason to comfort himself at this moment.
However, to Ye Qi's surprise, when his footsteps sounded, except for the wave that belonged to the female cavalry commander, the remaining three wave, including the chameleon, wanted to move far away—there was just in case One, the guest room that was arranged should now be the chameleon's room.
Such an unknown move caused Ye Qi's footsteps to stop, and the sound of footsteps was randomly interrupted; however, the next moment, Ye Qi moved forward again—it was already at such a point, he naturally had no room for hesitation.
The strange wolf laughed in his heart: "Does this have a feeling of going to the execution ground?"
Ye Qi replied coldly: "I hope you can share with me how you felt back then!"
The strange wolf asked strangely: "Have I never been to the execution ground?"
Ye Qi replied coldly: "I thought you had been there before, that's why I knew it so clearly!"
The strange wolf snorted coldly: "Originally I had this good idea, and I was going to share it with you, but now it seems..."
The strange wolf deliberately elongated his tone and gave Ye Qi a long enough wait; however, Ye Qi shook his head very simply: "No...some things must be faced directly... instead of looking for excuses !"
The strange wolf twitched the corner of his mouth, and said: "You hypocritical boy... you are always so hypocritical!"
After finishing speaking, the strange wolf disappeared straight into the bottom of Ye Qi's heart; however, Ye Qi can be sure that the strange wolf will never hide and sleep in the sealing hall at this time, and will definitely use the power of the contract to "watch the show"—regardless of the result No matter what, such a 'good show' will be the capital for the other party to laugh at him in the future.
Ye Qi, who was already used to this, just took a deep breath and stepped into the hall.
For a lady, it is rare for a straight figure to sit on the sofa, showing no weakness or enjoyment at all. Ye Qi walked slowly to the back of the sofa and stretched out his hands to lightly rest on the other's shoulder, which is slightly higher than the back of the sofa. , even with a layer of uniform separated, the temperature of Ye Qi's palm was still hot with a touch of humidity, as if to convey Ye Qi's apology.
The female cavalry captain asked in a low voice: "Do you want to explain something?"
Ye Qi smiled wryly: "I can't explain... I'm sorry. I seem to have done something against the principles!"
The female cavalry captain turned her head. Looking at Ye Qi. The emerald green eyes looked at Ye Qi who was smiling wryly, his voice became less hard and more soft, and asked, "Is it because I have violated your principles?"
Ye Qi nodded and said: "I have principles and a bottom line—but I'm not a consistent person... Maybe I'm a nepotism guy, and I can't always do that when facing my relatives; maybe. The two people in other people's mouths One standard and two bottom lines are really perfect for me!"
Speaking of this, Ye Qi's wry smile became more intense, he pursed his lips, trying to restrain the smile, but it didn't work.
The female cavalry captain moved her body a little, and gave up most of the sofa, even the place with the armrests, so that Ye Qi could sit down, and she embraced Ye Qi's arm. Said: "I have also violated my principles...to those who must be executed in my eyes, I have compromised...my chivalry. The most important thing is fairness—but, I can't do it!"
"I'm so helpless, I want to find a comfort!"
Ye Qi immediately raised his arm, stopped her shoulder, and said softly: "I am here! If I can... I will always be here!"
The female cavalry captain looked at Ye Qi, stared and said: "It violated my chivalry, and I have betrayed my heart, but the result I got was unexpected - the battle outside the Four Seasons Fort at that time continued. However, the balance of victory was tilted towards us... I violated the path of one person, but won the final victory, I was at a loss at that moment!"
"The way of chivalry is not only justice... but also compassion, but I can't show mercy to those people. Seeing their existence, I still want to draw my sword and cut off their heads—even if they are fighting for Contribute to the victory of the war, but most of the time, they are still for themselves!"
The female cavalry captain's voice was full of confusion and a hint of bewilderment.
Ye Qi patted her on the shoulder lightly, and said: "You gave up your own way, chose to compromise, and won the victory; they insisted on seeking benefits for themselves, and they also won the victory—your way of chivalry is not There is no change, in justice and mercy, you have a more selfless heart: sacrifice!"
"Sacrificing the path I chose to take care of the overall situation, I don't think any person or existence can say anything excessive to you... because you have done your best—and I..." Speaking of this, Ye Qi sighed A voice: "I've always flaunted my principles and bottom line, just to remind myself without mentioning it; but... you can also see that my willpower is not as firm as I imagined!"
After saying these words, Ye Qi was already waiting, and then scolded or questioned like a storm, but, to his surprise, the female cavalry commander did not do this, she gently patted him and let go With the back of her hand on her shoulder, she said in a low voice: "Master Pedenang once told me that if you are too persistent, you will eventually lose everything... At that time, it was difficult for me to understand such words, but in this war Finally, after going through those few compromises, I finally understood a little bit!"
"Since you can't be consistent, then you shouldn't have such pride!" The female cavalry captain looked at Ye Qi and asked softly: "Seeing me appearing here, is there a hint of joy in your heart? ?”
Ye Qi shook his head and said, "I'm only nervous...and afraid!"
The female cavalry captain stared at Ye Qi and said, "Don't you have confidence in me?"
Ye Qi smiled bitterly: "It's not about confidence, it's just because of mistakes; after all, the promise I made to you before seems to be worthless at this moment... and more importantly, after we, After that... do you understand?"
Speaking of this, Ye Qi couldn't continue.
Rarely, Ye Qi also had a look of embarrassment on his face. He was even more anxious and restless than when he was on the mission for the first time. Ye Qi looked at the female cavalry captain expectantly.
The female cavalry captain nodded slightly, and replied: "I understand... I also understand, and try to stand on your side, thinking about some things-this makes me understand and understand you more clearly!"
Ye Qi stared at the female cavalry commander's palm passing through her neck, put his head next to the female cavalry commander's ear, and said softly, "Thank you!"
The female cavalry commander responded slightly, kissing Ye Qi's earlobe.
Then, the two hugged even tighter.
After a long time, the female cavalry commander suddenly said: "Do you want to know what Mr. Pedenanger told me?"
Ye Qi nodded: "I will keep listening!"
…
In the chameleon's room, Reynkers and Linda Northstead were still in a trance.
They looked at the chameleon in disbelief and asked, "Is this the solution?"
Chameleon nodded and said: "Of course - if a woman loves, anything can happen!"
Reynkers still had a bit of disbelief, she said: "But, but..."
The chameleon laughed and said, "If a woman's pride is her own, then she will be doomed to be lonely—you should be lucky, Your Excellency Else understands this truth very well!"
