Xuan Yuan nodded silently and said, "I hope he can also be the motivation to inspire me. Thank you, brother." After finishing speaking, he walked towards his room without looking back.
The Pope sighed, looking at the figure of his brother with sadness in his heart. Xuan Yuan disappeared shortly after the two were born. When Xuan Yuan came back, he had become a cardinal. This younger brother of mine is really too strong, and always feels uncomfortable for not being able to surpass himself. He practiced desperately not only to challenge the Four Great Juggernauts, but also to surpass himself.
A month passed, and the four of them searched for four larger cities in the dark province according to the map, but they found nothing, and there was no trace of elves at all. Duan became very silent, and it was difficult to hear his voice during the day, which made Brother Rock worried, but there was nothing he could do.
Spreading out the map, the rock looked at it and said, "In the dark province, we only have the last big city, Mica. If there is no trace of the elves here, we will go to the next province." The westernmost part of the province, according to the logo on the map, this big city is second only to the dark city in the dark province. They are still more than twenty miles away from the city.
After a month of recovery, the elf girl Zhuo Yun's mood has completely calmed down. She is a quiet girl, and she is very shy. She usually follows silently behind the three of them. Every time she rests, she will take the initiative. Taking good care of the daily life of the three of them greatly increased their affection for her.
"Dai, let me tell you to cheer up a bit, don't be so silent." Yan Li said dissatisfiedly looking at Dui who was moving forward with his head bowed.
Dui raised his head, with a blank look in his eyes, half of Bing's revenge has been avenged, but for some reason, apart from a feeling of joy at the beginning, his mood fell into the bottom again later, when he thought of Bing's love for him before his death With deep affection, he felt like crying bitterly. "I'm sorry, Brother Yanli, I just don't want to talk."
Rock sighed, and said: "Dumb, the matter is over, so don't think about it anymore. You have avenged the ice girl for her. I think her spirit in heaven will rest in peace. She won't want to see it either. Now that you are like this, you have to cheer up!"
Duan forced a smile and said, "Brother, I will. Let's go, don't we still have to go to Mica City to find elves?"
As he was walking forward, Ah-Dai suddenly felt a chill all over his body, as if something terrifying was about to appear, so he couldn't help but raise his vigilance, and looked around, but didn't find anything unusual. At this moment, a sudden change occurred. The road beside him suddenly exploded with a large cloud of dust, and the dust spread to the four of them. Behind the dust, this bit of cold light, the target of the cold light was hidden. , it was Dumb's chest. Dui has experienced many catastrophes, and he is no longer the dull boy when he first stepped into the mainland. His eyes were full of coldness, and his true energy came out through his body, blocking the dust that was rushing towards him, and drew a picture with his left hand in front of him Making an arc, the yellow vindictive light formed a shield in front of him. With a ding, the cold light pierced the shield that Ah-Dai had transformed with Shengchang, and a sharp and abnormal fighting spirit seemed to want to break through Shengchang's defense. Over the past month, Dumb, since he has been able to absorb the energy of the second golden body in his chest, his skill has increased a lot, and he has become extremely strong fighting spirit. It is so easy to be broken through. Using true energy, resisting the attack of sharp fighting energy, a light blade was transformed into a light blade in his right hand, and he slashed at the master of the cold light. The surging energy completely dispersed the dust in the air, and the yellow light came in a flash.
The sneak attacker obviously didn't expect Ah-Dai's reaction to be so fast. With a sway of his body, he slashed towards Ah-Dai's side like lightning. Stay in Dumb's body. Facing these two cold lights, Duan felt a sense of familiarity in his heart. He is no longer the fool he used to be. Although the speed of the enemy is fast, his speed is also not slow. With a flash of his figure, he quickly floated to the side, waving his hands in the air, and the yellow fighting spirit was like a soft thread. Wrap around the assailant.
The attacker seemed taken aback, the pressure brought by the sudden change shocked her heart, she tried her best to back away, but she was still pulled a little by the grudge, and with a tearing sound, the veil on the attacker's face was torn by the grudge It fell off, revealing a beautiful and icy face, she exclaimed, and then retreated three feet away like lightning.
Duan froze in place, staring at the girl in front of him who wanted to take his life without blinking. The girl's beauty was not the reason for his dullness, but her icy face, icy expression and dead ice. It was so similar, the hatred in the eyes made Ah-Dai feel very kind, not only blurted out: "Bing—"
The girl was taken aback, but did not attack again. The rock brothers and the elf Zhuo Yun have also reacted, gathered around Dumb and glared at the girl in front of them. When they heard Ah Dui call out the word Bing, they couldn't help being stunned for a moment. Although the girl in front of her was as beautiful as Bing, she was not alike, but her icy temperament seemed to be exactly the same.
Dumb's voice was trembling, and he walked towards the girl in front of him step by step, and said in a trembling voice: "Bing, is that you? Bing."
The girl looked at Ah-Dai's expectant eyes, and for some reason, her original determination to kill softened. She frowned and said, "Who is your ice, I am the one who came to take your life." This girl is exactly The youngest acquirer of the Thieves Guild, Miefeng, the daughter of the Thieves Guild President. After getting the news about Dumb, she quietly slipped out of the union, followed Dumb and the others for several days, and finally figured out the direction they were going to pass. In this remote place, she found an opportunity to kill Dumb. My fourth uncle took revenge. But she didn't expect that Duan's skill was so different from that in the elf forest. Although she didn't use the Pluto sword, it also prevented her from gaining the slightest advantage.
Duan looked at the girl in front of him who had almost the same temperament as Bing, and he felt strong thoughts in his heart. Even he himself didn't know what kind of feeling he had towards Bing. For Bing, he was not as engraved as he was for Xuanyue, but Bing's death left a deep imprint on his heart, and that was his greatest regret. Bing died for him and saved his life twice. Although Bing had been humiliated, in Dumb's heart, she was so pure. At this moment, the girl in front of him seemed to be resurrected from the ice, so how could he not be excited.
Mie Feng knew that he would not be able to kill Duan no matter what today, so he snorted coldly, and his body suddenly floated backwards. Duan saw that Miefeng was about to leave, and shouted: "Bing, don't leave me." He rushed forward, and subconsciously used Shengshengbian, the silver golden body in his dantian was shining brightly, and the yellow Shengsheng's fighting spirit shone It turned into slender silk threads and floated out, covering Miefeng's delicate body.
Miefeng was startled, and the short blades in his hands intertwined a fine defensive net, but Dumb didn't mean to hurt her, the fighting energy silk was full of softness, and the yellow energy threads fluttered as the short blades flew up and down, Not only was she not repulsed by Miefeng, but she covered every position around her. Mie Feng felt his whole body tense, and his body was completely entangled by the strands of fighting energy, unable to move.
Dumb floated over and landed in front of Miefeng, with tears streaming from his eyes, he hugged Miefeng tightly in his arms, and murmured: "Bing, Bing, don't leave me again. Stay, okay?"
Miefeng's body was completely stiff in Ah-Dai's warm embrace. It was the first time in her life that she was hugged by another man except her father. The masculine aura from Ah-Dai's body made her heart tremble violently. With strong emotions, Mie Feng stood there stiffly, his mind went blank.
Brother Rock ran over, and Rock pulled Ah-Dai away. He saw everything clearly just now. This girl who looked like ice wanted to take Ah-Dai's life! How could he make Ah-Dai mistake her for ice? With a slap, the rock slapped Ah-Dai on the face, slapped him back three steps, and said angrily: "Dai, look clearly, she is not ice, she is ice." The one who came to kill you, don’t you want to live?” Duan, who was repelled by the rock, was in a state of confusion, and the control of life and death disappeared naturally. Mie Feng felt a lightness all over his body, and the yellow fighting qi thread wrapped around his body disappeared immediately. She glared at Dumb, and before Yanli's big hand grabbed her body, she floated away suddenly, and her delicate body avoided the vines transformed by Zhuo Yun's natural magic like a butterfly wearing flowers, and several ups and downs disappeared from everyone's sight Inside.
Duan froze in place, watching Miefeng leave helplessly, feeling a sense of loss in his heart. When he hugged Miefeng just now, he already understood that the girl in front of him was not ice. Although her face was cold, her body was hot, but Bing was not. Bing's body and heart were both cold. He murmured: "She, she is not ice, not ice."
Anger flashed in Yan Yan's eyes, and he shouted loudly: "Are you crazy? You even went to hug a woman who wanted to kill you. If your fighting spirit was a little bit weaker, you would have been killed by her. The one just now was obviously from the Thieves Guild." People, have you forgotten everything you encountered in the elf forest? You bastard, you can't die."
Dumb's heart shook, his eyes became clearer, and then he remembered the acquirers he met in the elf forest, yes, those pair of short blades, that weird movement, and that sharp fighting spirit belonged to the Thieves Guild Symbol, me, what's wrong with me? Why am I like this.
Rock walked up to Ah-Dai, took out Bing's head from his arms, threw it on him again, and said angrily: "Look clearly, this is ice, not the one just now."
Duan was taken aback, hurriedly grabbed the head that had almost fallen to the ground, squatted on the ground, and carefully grabbed Bing's head, and was relieved when he saw that there was no damage.
Zhuo Yun couldn't stand it anymore, she ran to Ah-Dai's side, hugged Ah-Dai's head into her arms, choked up and said, "Don't force him, don't you see how sad he is?" Yun's tenderness, Ah-Dai's body gradually softened, and the tears in his eyes flowed down again. He lay in Zhuo Yun's arms and cried bitterly. For a month, the gradually increasing depression in his heart seemed to be completely released at this moment. Trembling in Zhuo Yun's arms, tears flowed vigorously, soaking Zhuo Yun's skirt.
Rock stood there, in a sluggish state. He was so furious because he was worried about Ah-Dai's safety. Along the way, he had already regarded Ah-Dai as his own brother. How could he not be so deeply emotional? To care about Ah-Dai, when Han Mang attacked Ah-Dai just now, his heart was completely tightened, and finally saw Ah-Dai gaining the upper hand, but he actually took the initiative to hug the woman who wanted to kill him. That's why the rock erupted. However, seeing Ah-Dai in pain now, Rock realized that he had cared too little for Ah-Dai in the past month. Bing's death dealt a greater blow to Dumb than he had imagined. Duan himself is extremely simple, and it is naturally difficult to recover from such a heavy blow.
Yanli walked to his elder brother, he seemed to be calmer, and said in a low voice: "Let him cry, it will feel better after crying."
Like a big sister, Zhuo Yun kept stroking Ah-Dai's long black hair, comforting his trembling heart with his tenderness. After an unknown amount of time, both Ah-Dai and Zhuo Yun sat on the ground, and Ah-Dai's The crying gradually stopped, and the body was softly attached to Zhuo Yun's warm and soft embrace, and fell asleep like that.
Rock walked to Zhuo Yun's side, seeing the motherly smile on Zhuo Yun's face, his heart that was already frozen because of Yun'er's death actually trembled. Zhuo Yun's gentleness and kindness are so similar to his own Yun'er. Zhuo Yun also saw him, and made a silence gesture to him, and said in a low voice: "It's not easy for him to relax, let's not disturb him, let him have a good sleep, when he wakes up, definitely It will be much better." As she spoke, a gentle smile appeared on her face, this smile, in Yan Yan's eyes, was so touching, as if his cloud had returned. At this moment, he suddenly understood the reason why Ah-Dai yelled Bing when he saw the girl who assassinated him, and the word Yun'er almost blurted out.
Mie Feng didn't go far, she floated away before, ran not far away and then quietly turned back, she didn't know why she came back, obviously there was no chance of assassination. When she turned around, she happened to see Zhuo Yun holding Ah-Dai in his arms, and Ah-Dai was crying bitterly. Seeing Ah-Dai's trembling body, she suddenly felt an inexplicable pain in her heart. Although she didn't know why this young man who had suddenly become extremely powerful was crying, she vaguely felt that it must be the same as the Bing's name he just called out. Very relevant. Thinking of the scene when Duan hugged him just now, Miefeng, who was always calm, became confused and hid in the bushes, he couldn't help being a little crazy. When she saw Dui falling asleep in Zhuo Yun's arms, she felt a little jealous in her heart. Startled secretly, Mie Feng shook his head vigorously, what's wrong with me, that is my enemy! How can I feel this way. I can't take revenge now, let's find another chance later. Thinking of this, she quietly left in the distance, and before leaving, she couldn't help but glance at Dumb again. Only then did he unfold his figure and float away.
Dumb slept for a long time this time, and he didn't wake up until the sun was setting. So comfortable! It has been a month, and there has never been a day when he slept so soundly like this time. He slowly opened his eyes, and found that he was actually pillowed on Zhuo Yun's lap, against Zhuo Yun's delicate body, and Zhuo Yun's arm was on his shoulder. on, dozing off. His whole body trembled, and he remembered what happened before. The sorrow in my heart seemed to be completely resolved during that cry, and my chest was no longer oppressed and uncomfortable, and I felt unspeakably comfortable. I took a deep breath and wanted to sit up, but Zhuo Yun was awakened.
Zhuo Yun looked at Dumb with a smile, and said softly, "Dai, you're awake."
Duan blushed, sat up straight, and found that the rock brothers were sleeping next to the big tree on the side of the road, and himself and Zhuo Yun were still in the middle of the road. Fortunately, this place is extremely remote, and almost no one will pass by. Nodding her head, she said in embarrassment: "Sister Zhuo Yun, I, I..."
Zhuo Yun smiled and said: "Okay, don't talk about it, you are the kindest brother in the eyes of my sister, the past should not be forgotten, but you still have to live, don't be immersed in sadness. Come out. The best choice is to face it bravely. Tomorrow will be better." Zhuo Yun struggled to stand up, but his body was a little stiff, and he couldn't help shaking.
Ah-Dai hurriedly supported Zhuo Yun's arm, "Sister, be careful." Zhuo Yun's words finally made Ah-Dai come out of his grief, and Zhuo Yun's gentleness brought him care like a mother. A strong sibling relationship was established at this moment. Zhuo Yun moved his delicate body and felt much more comfortable. He pouted in the direction of Brother Rock, and said, "Call them up. Since this place is not far from Mica City, let's rest there. It's going to be very cold at night in the wilderness." Indeed, in May The weather is still a bit chilly.
Duan walked to the side of the rock, recalling what he said earlier, he clearly understood Brother Rock's concern for him, and thinking of his bad mood for the past month, he couldn't help but feel apologetic. He patted Rock on the shoulder, "Brother, get up, we should hurry."
Rock opened his misty eyes, seeing that it was Dumb who called him, he couldn't help showing a tinge of joy, "Brother, you're awake. The elder brother's words were a little heavy earlier, so don't worry about it."
Dumb shook his head, and said, "Brother, I know you are doing it for my own good, so why would you blame you. Let's set off." After finishing speaking, he also called out Yan Li on the side.
Zhuo Yun walked to the side of the three of them, smiled at Dumb: "You can really sleep! You have slept for a whole day, and my sister is hungry. I can't make you a pillow for a whole day. You can treat me to eat at night." Good ones. Human food is really rich and colorful, much better than the monotonous vegetables and fruits of our elves."
There was a smile on Dumb's face, "Sister, thank you, without your concern, I might continue to sink in hatred. I have been an orphan since I was a child, would you like to be my sister?"
Zhuo Yun looked at Ah-Dai's sincere gaze, his eye circles turned red slightly, nodded and said: "Of course, of course I am willing. From today on, you will be my good brother." After speaking, he flapped the wings hidden in the cloak behind his back , flew in front of Dumb, and hugged his head into his arms again.
Duan touched Zhuo Yun's soft and delicate body, without any evil thoughts in his heart, full of warmth, and murmured: "Sister, I will never let anyone hurt you from now on."
Rock looked at Zhuo Yun and Dumb enviously, and smiled, "Miss Zhuo Yun, thank you."
Zhuo Yun let go of Dumb, floated back to the ground, and said with a smile: "You are so polite, if you hadn't saved me, I'm afraid I would have been reduced to hard work by now. I just want to thank you!"
Yanli laughed, and said: "We are all our own people, what's the point of thanking them, don't we want to eat? My stomach is already bulging, let's go to Mica City as soon as possible."
A group of four embarked on the road to Mica City, Duan finally restored his usual smile, which made Brother Rock feel good. Finally, in the evening, everyone arrived at their destination. Although it was already evening, Mica City was still very lively, with various shops lined up on both sides of the road. When I was in the dark city, almost all the money I won was used to buy Zhuo Yun. But there were more than 3,000 gold coins left on the card that was obtained from Uncle Fatty, which was enough for the four of them to spend.
As soon as he entered the city, Ah-Dai suddenly stopped, and the other three looked at each other in astonishment. Zhuo Yun asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
There was a gleam of joy on Dumb's face, and he took out the elf bracelet from his arms, and said, "Here are your people." Sure enough, there was a faint light on the elf bracelet, and it was obvious that there was an elf not far away. trace. Zhuo Yun was overjoyed to see the elf bracelet glowing, "Great, I finally found other clansmen."
Rock was also very excited. He stood beside Zhuo Yun and said, "Yes! We just need to walk around the city according to the feeling of the fairy bracelet, and we will definitely find the whereabouts of the fairy."
Yanli said: "Finding an elf in a month is enough. I hope it will be so smooth in the future. But, shall we eat something first?"
Zhuo Yun and Rock said almost at the same time: "You just know how to eat." After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other, and the feeling of speaking in unison made the expressions on their faces a little awkward.
Yanli said aggrievedly: "Eating is the most important thing! If you don't eat enough, how can you have the strength to save people!"
Zhuo Yun smiled and said, "Then let's eat first." The four of them found a small restaurant and sat down, and the task of ordering food was naturally completed by the most delicious Yanli. He unceremoniously ordered more than a dozen dishes before he stopped. He wanted a jar of wine at first, but when he thought about the possibility of saving lives at night, he gave up the idea.
While waiting for the dishes to arrive, Shi Yan said: "Since there are traces of elves here, I think it should be at the place of rich nobles or rich merchants."
Zhuo Yun nodded and said: "It is possible. Since our elves can sell millions of gold coins, it is not something ordinary people can afford. Let's start with the nobles. With the elf bracelet to guide us, tonight, we will definitely be able to Find the traces of the clansmen. The little princess doesn't know what happened, she is so innocent, I am really afraid that she will be hurt."
At this time, the waiter had already started to serve the dishes, and when he was putting the dishes on the table, Yan Yan said: "We are from other places, who is the richest person in your Mica City?"
The waiter was slightly taken aback, and said, "The richest? Of course it is the Marquise Sana."
Rock was taken aback, and said, "Why is it a woman?"
The waiter whispered: "The Marquis is not an ordinary person. The Marquis is the Lord of the city. I heard that he is related to His Majesty today. He used to be the Minister of Finance of the Empire. Later, he retired here when he was old. , became the lord of Mica City, our Mica City and Dark City are the two largest cities in the Dark Province, and the Marquis is also the governor of the entire province. Think about it, since he was once the Minister of Finance, can he have no money? After arriving in our Mica City, almost all businesses were monopolized. The Marquis married Mr. Marquis 20 years ago, and she was only in her twenties at that time. Naturally, all the property was inherited by the Marquis. The Marquis is not an ordinary person. I heard that she has a strong background and is the sister of a great nobleman in the empire. Therefore, the current city lord dare not offend her. Here , the power of the city lord is not as great as her."
Dumb said strangely: "How come you know so clearly."
The waiter looked around, saw that no one noticed this side, and said awkwardly: "No one in Yunmu City knows the name of the Marquis! You can tell a few words to anyone you ask. Although the Marquis is over four years old Ten, but..." At this point, he stopped suddenly, smiled awkwardly, turned and left.
Duan looked at the rock, and the rock pondered: "It seems that this marquise is not simple! I will ask later."
When the waiter brought the second spinach, Rock quietly slipped him a gold coin and asked in a low voice, "We are very interested in the Marquise you mentioned, and you haven't finished talking just now."
The waiter looked at the gold coin in his hand and immediately smiled. He whispered: "It's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that the Marquise has too much power in the city, and I'm afraid I'll get into trouble."
Rock smiled and said: "We are just curious, just ask casually, and we will never talk nonsense."
The waiter nodded, and while putting the dishes on the table, said: "This marquise is very coquettish, with countless faces. I heard that the current city lord has an affair with her. As long as they are young and handsome, they are all her targets. .Master, you have a great figure, if you let her take a fancy to you, you might be able to reach the sky and become a rich man in one step."
Old Rock blushed, took a peek at Zhuo Yun, and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Then where does the Marquis live?"
The waiter smiled and said, "The Marquise lives in the manor in the south of the city. Her house occupies almost ten thousand square meters? The building is very luxurious. Alas, it's a pity that I'm ugly, otherwise, Go and try to see if there is a chance to make her fall in love with me. Then I will live comfortably for the rest of my life."
There was a look of disdain in Rock's eyes, and he said to Ah-Dai and Zhuo Yun, "Let's eat." Seeing that Rock ignored him, the waiter retreated resentfully.
Yanli had already started, and she kept stuffing the delicious food in front of her mouth. Zhuo Yun ate very slowly and very little. While eating, she asked Yanyan: "Are we going to meet the Marquis later?" Let’s take a look at the mansion. According to the waiter, the Marquise should have the ability to buy our elves.”
Rock nodded, avoiding Zhuo Yun's gaze, and said in a low voice, "It's possible, let's go after dinner."
Duan looked at the rock, then at Zhuo Yun, and suddenly had a strange feeling. He felt that the always heroic elder brother seemed to be afraid of facing Zhuo Yun.
After the meal, the four of them walked towards the south of the city. Duan held the elf bracelet tightly in his hand. The further south he walked, the brighter the elf bracelet's light became, "Brother, it seems that the elf is really with that marquise. We How to get in, should we force ourselves in or wait for an opportunity." His eyes flickered, and in his heart, none of these people who bought elves as slaves was a good thing, and the silent murderous intent gradually rose in his chest, and the feeling of blood devouring continued to invade His heart, kill, must kill those wicked people, only ordinary civilians can live a happy life.
Rock thought for a while and said, "Since the Marquise is so powerful, we shouldn't force our way in. Let's go in and look for it secretly. With the guidance of the Elven Bracelet, we will definitely find it."
When the four of them came to the south of Mica City, the Elven Bracelet had turned green all over. It was obvious that their target was the Marquise's mansion in front of them. Seeing the huge mansion in front of him, he couldn't help but gasp. No wonder the waiter would describe it as a manor. The courtyard wall of the manor is two meters high, and there is an iron fence that is also two meters high on the wall. There were spikes on it, and several people flew to a big tree outside the manor to look in. The manor was brightly lit, and groups of patrolling soldiers could be clearly seen. In the center of the manor, a three-story white castle-like building stood proudly there. Surrounding the castle, there was actually a circle of rivers five meters wide. The clear river sparkles under the torches of the patrolling guards, setting off the small building in the center, which looks extraordinarily luxurious. Around the castle, there is a road leading to the gate, which is flat, and the rest are pavilions and pavilions, which are connected by gravel paths, shaded by green grass, and planted with various plants. Outside the gate of the manor, more than a dozen gorgeous carriages were parked, and the drivers were chatting.
Rock sighed: "I really enjoy it! This place is much more luxurious than the City Lord's Mansion in the Dark City."
Zhuo Yun pointed to the driver below, and said to Dumb: "Brother, can you hear what they are saying?"
Duan was stunned for a moment, and said, "Let me try." As he spoke, he focused on practicing his skills, and used his true energy to improve his sense of hearing. A coachman yawned and said: "It's been two hours, why is the banquet not over yet?" Another coachman said: "Wait, these gentlemen and ladies, why don't you have to play for a while, it's okay This is not an all-night banquet, otherwise it would be even worse for us to wait."
"The Marquise has a chance to hold a banquet every night. Our master will come back to attend and want to win her attention, but he doesn't think about how old he is. The Marquise likes the little boy, how could he fall in love with him?" .”
