Chapter Seventy-Two: A Matter of Life and Death
"Raymond, come here!" Lin Qian shouted.
"What's wrong?" Raymond saw Lin Qian's panicked eyes as soon as he turned around, "Huh, where's your friend?"
"You didn't notice it just now?" Lin Qian didn't believe when Neuer was so strong.
"No," Raymond knew what he was thinking when he saw Lin Qian's expression, and said with a smile, "Why do you think he can get close to Calvin? I feel that his magic cultivation is not much different from Calvin's." ”
"It's not much worse, how can it progress so fast?" Lin Qian couldn't figure it out, although Neuer's talent was also considered to be superior, it was a bit too exaggerated to reach Calvin's level in a short period of time.
"Who do you ask me, who do I ask?" Raymond said with some unhappiness, "It takes 10,000 years for our dragon clan to grow up to the same level as your human maturity, and it is even more difficult to go up. You humans are good, you can reach that level in a few months, it's really infuriating. ”
"At least you live long, and we'll only be glorious for decades. Lin Qian said enviously.
Humans and dragons have their own strengths and weaknesses, and they envy each other's abilities, which may be a natural balance.
"What now, do you want to go back?" Raymond reacted a little slowly, but he was not so stupid that he didn't know who was behind the scene, and now he was afraid that he would have to face the princess when he went back.
"Go back, now I owe no one anyone, I don't have a psychological burden. ”
This experience seems to be of great benefit to Lin Qian, at least he doesn't have to think about giving Elena a father again, as long as he keeps improving his magic strength, the old fox will theoretically have no threat to him. However, Lin Qian couldn't be happy in his heart, he seemed to have lost something important in his heart, and it was as if most of his heart had been cut off. Woe is where blessing rests; There are gains and losses, Lin Qian can only comfort himself like this.
Elena hadn't been back to the palace since the day before, and had rested in Xiao Yi's room at night. Xiao Yi originally wanted to find another room to sleep in, but Elena said that she wanted to chat with her, so the two squeezed into the same bed and talked until late before going to bed.
In the morning, Xiaoyi still got up on time, didn't wake up Elena, but habitually opened Lin Qian's door to take a look, but there was no one. When she turned around to wash up and wake Elena, she suddenly heard movement outside the door.
"Brother Lin is back?" Elena was anxious, jumped out of bed with a casual dress, opened a crack in the door with her bare feet, and looked out with her head exposed.
"Princess, you are indeed here. "Outside the door was a teenager, but it wasn't Lin Qian, it was Neuer that Elena had seen before.
"Bang!" Elena slammed the door shut.
"Princess, if you guessed correctly, Lin Qian should be in the Calvin family at this time, right?" Neuer shouted loudly outside the door.
There was still no movement in the room.
Neuer smiled helplessly and continued to persuade: "I know if you don't speak." I'm here to save him today, doesn't the princess?"
When Elena heard that she was going to save Lin Qian, she hurriedly ran over and opened the door, and by this time she was already dressed and put on the posture that a princess should have.
Neuer gave a symbolic salute, and then looked up and suddenly saw Xiao Yi behind Elena, and a pair of eyes could no longer be taken away. What kind of face this is, combined with the innate temperament, makes Neuer seem to forget everything in an instant.
Xiao Yi's face was immediately covered with frost when he saw him like this, if he hadn't thought that he could save Lin Gongzi, he couldn't wait to go back to the house immediately.
Neuer knew that he was out of shape, so he quickly turned his gaze to the side, his face flushed slightly, he was only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, and it was normal to behave like this.
"Do you really want to save him?" asked Elena.
"Yes, I also have some friendship with Lin Qian, and this time I know that he is in danger, so I naturally want to save him. Neuer said solemnly. In front of the girl he likes, a man will always behave like a decent gentleman.
"What do you want?" asked Elena bluntly.
Neuer originally wanted to use Mogulia's notes in return, but at this time, doing so in front of Xiao Yi inevitably lost his image, and after thinking twice, he slowly spoke: "It's just to rescue a friend, as long as the princess remembers that promise, don't find a way to harm him." ”
Elena was a little embarrassed to be said, and regretted her previous impulse even more, and nodded her head in agreement, urging Neuer to act quickly.
Neuer glanced at Xiao Yi with some reluctance before slowly disappearing into the office. What happened after that was that Lin Qian was rescued by him when he was in danger, and Neuer also took the benefits he wanted by the way.
"Sister Xiaoyi, can he really save Brother Lin?" Elena already knew a little bit of Xiaoyi's identity, and she believed in her even more.
"I'm not sure. He'll save him, but I can't predict if he'll be able to save it. "Xiao Yi is very unconfident in his ability now, especially when he encounters things related to Lin Qian.
"Sister Xiaoyi, do you think Brother Lin will ...... if he comes back safely" Elena said as tears were about to fall.
"No, the princess is just impulsive, Childe will definitely not take this to heart, and he will know when Childe comes back. Xiao Yi smiled and comforted her, but in fact, she didn't know the bottom of her heart.
Although Lin Qian looked gentle all day long, who knows if he would be angry because of this matter, and maybe it would be possible to break with Elena from now on.
"Sister Xiaoyi, in fact, I didn't want to," Elena hesitated for a long time before deciding to tell the truth, "I just came over yesterday and saw you there...... I was suddenly very angry, and then I decided to let Brother Lin go. ”
After Elena finished speaking, she didn't dare to look up at Xiao Yi, her two little hands rubbed the corners of her clothes, and she looked like she was admitting punishment and scolding.
"Do you like Lin Gongzi?" asked Xiao Yi with some uncertainty.
"Yes, I especially like to stay with Brother Lin. Elena replied innocently.
"I'm not talking about this kind of liking, it's about the kind of liking that wants to live together. Xiao Yi had to explain patiently.
"Is it Sister Xiaoyi's liking for Brother Lin?"
"Yes," Xiao Yi touched her slightly hot face and said, "Does the princess just like Lin Gongzi ordinarily?"
"I don't know, I just know that I saw Brother Lin right...... If other women are good, I will be unhappy. Elena was afraid that Xiao Yi would be angry, so she didn't name her directly.
Xiao Yi smiled and said that she would not care. She thought of the scene where Lin Qian cooperated with Elena in order to seduce Achill, and she followed Lin Qian at that time. Although Elena is only a twelve-year-old girl, the inexplicable Xiaoyi will feel a little uncomfortable. This is very similar to the feeling Elena described.
This is a woman's natural jealousy, and no matter who it is, there will be a little bit of it. They can accept anything with the person they love, but they just can't accept seeing him so intimate with another woman. Women in any world are not exempt from vulgarity, even a woman like Xiaoyi who sees through almost everything.
"I see. Xiao Yi's heart suddenly added a worry.
A dragon groan came from the sky, interrupting the two of them who had their own thoughts.
"Brother Lin is here?"
"It's Lin Gongzi!"
The two glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of joy and excitement in each other's expressions, which were the same emotions as themselves.
"I'm back!" Lin Qian's shout came from far and near, and when he shouted the last word, he had already appeared on the windowsill, next to Raymond, who had returned to his waywardness.
"Hmm, why don't you two speak, aren't you happy?" Lin Qian asked suspiciously.
"Brother Lin, you ......" Elena's mood at this time was the most complicated, she was not only glad that Lin Qian had returned safely, but also felt guilty about her actions, and her contradictory heart made her unable to speak.
"Childe, you're tired, let's rest for a while. Xiao Yi saw that the scene was about to become embarrassing again, so she hurried to play a round.
"Well, I've worried you about Xiao Yi," Lin Qian didn't care about outsiders, and directly stretched out his left hand to grab Xiao Yi's hand, but he didn't forget Elena, and turned his head and said with a smile, "And Elena, the princess." ”
When Elena heard the front, she thought that Lin Qian really wouldn't care, but when she heard the word "princess", her heart instantly cooled for most of the time, as if a bucket of ice water was poured from her head to the soles of her feet.
The tears that had just stopped could not stand the gravitational pull of the earth, and flowed down in a hurry, but Elena did not cry at all, just silently wept.
Lin Qian walked directly between the two, and didn't see Elena's expression, but when his right hand brushed Elena's side, he felt something dripping onto his hand.
Xiao Yi naturally saw all this in her eyes, she was a little helpless and was pulled forward by Lin Qian, looked back at Elena who was still stunned, and couldn't help but start to sympathize with her.
"Childe-" Xiao Yi was about to say something when Lin Qian interrupted him.
"Don't say anything, I just want to get some rest right now. Lin Qian's expression was a little calm and terrifying, he was really unhappy.
"Little princess, I'll send you back to the palace. Raymond said with a smile, but his smile was clearly forced.
Elena wiped away her tears, turned to look at Lin Qian, her eyes became more determined. With a heartbeat, Elena jumped to the windowsill and wanted to die!
Raymond saw all this for the first time, but he hesitated for a moment and didn't make a move, he was waiting for Lin Qian's decision.
"Princess, she's jumping down!" Xiao Yi happened to look back and saw this scene, and hurriedly shouted at Lin Qian.
"Save her!" Lin Qian heard Xiao Yi's shout, and yelled at Raymond in a hurry, the expression on his face as if he was about to eat people.
"Got it. Raymond slowly straightened his sleeves, and with one hand he casually grabbed the falling Elena.
Lin Qian hurriedly ran over and yelled at the saved Elena: "You don't want to die!"
