Chapter 241: Invitation
Lu Qian said this suddenly, so that Huang Guanglin didn't know what kind of expression to show for a while. However, there was shock, complexity and incomprehension in his eyes, and all kinds of emotions also emerged from the bottom of his heart, making him completely frozen.
She invited him!
This is an incredible thing for Huang Guanglin, because he has always been an image of waste material in the eyes of others, and there is no value of invitation at all.
Lu Qian looked deeply at the young man's face, silently waiting for his reply.
Huang Guanglin opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say. So, he simply fell silent and did not choose to answer. Who would have thought, Lu Qian was very persistent this time, and even looked at him a little stubbornly.
Gotta want an answer!
At this time, Belinda suddenly appeared and completely interrupted their conversation, "Lord Earl of Fire Ebb, this matter will be discussed later." You should have invited Guanglin to visit your territory this time. ”
Lu Qian sighed in her heart and nodded, "Hmm." ”
"That's easy to say, the next step is to arrange the itinerary by Lord Earl, don't mention anything else, okay?"
Lu Qian agreed, but still glanced at Huang Guanglin deeply, and turned around and left helplessly.
waited until he couldn't see Lu Qian's figure, and Huang Guanglin really breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Qian's eyes just now had a feeling that he couldn't bear to refuse, but he kept reminding himself in his heart that he couldn't agree.
That's not the future he wants!
Belinda reached out and patted the boy on the head, "Don't you want to be her knight?"
Huang Guanglin was stunned, "She already has a lot of knights, doesn't she?"
Belinda chuckled, "Looks like you don't understand what I mean. To put it bluntly, those guard knights are just guards, and they can change their owners if they want. A true knight is loyal to only one person, and is a lifelong companion and guardian. ”
Lifetime...... Is it?
Huang Guanglin asked uncertainly, "Shouldn't that be a partner?"
"Haha, in a sense, you can also be a partner. ”
"That's not going to work. Huang Guanglin shook his head decisively, "Whether it's a knight or a partner, I'm not qualified." ”
Belinda didn't speak, just looked at the boy's lowered head.
She knew that the young man had not completely come out of his humility, and in his opinion, he himself was inferior in front of Lu Qian. Even if he gets Lu Qian's preference, he will not be happy if he does not have an equal identity.
Moreover, there may be more complicated feelings between two people!
Here, Lu Qian was alone looking up at the starless night sky, and her eyes couldn't help but moisten.
He, didn't reply to her!
And even if there is no reply, she can already see that he is not happy!
She didn't know why, but she seemed to know why, and the feelings in it were too complicated for her to understand. The only thing she knew was that she wanted him to stay with her!
Bertha didn't know when she came over, and without saying a word, she hugged the seemingly arrogant Lord Earl into her arms. Lu Qian wanted to struggle, but was hugged tightly by Bertha.
"I was rejected. Bertha whispered.
Lu Qian stiffened and didn't move at all.
Bertha continued, "He's such a person, you should see it. We should give him more time, and then we will support him whatever choice he makes. Okay, sister?"
Lu Qian buried her head, and after a long time, she spit out a low word.
Captain Harlan and the others had already prepared their tents, and the four girls seemed to have discussed it today, sleeping one in each of the two tents and two carriages, as if they were letting the teenagers choose.
As for Xiao Ai, he had already set up a tent alone, and he and the black-robed woman went to bed early.
Huang Guanglin was stunned for a long time, and finally turned around and walked to the fire, keeping vigil with Captain Harun.
Captain Harlan was a little surprised, but he couldn't help but joke, "Lord Guanglin, why don't you go to bed?"
Huang Guanglin rolled his eyes, "I don't want to sleep today!"
Captain Harlan only cast an ambiguous look when he heard this, and said in a low voice, "Adults don't need to be shy, everyone is a man, and subordinates can understand." However, the Earl has come all the way to see you, and you can't leave her out in the cold......"
"What do you say?"
Huang Guanglin's face turned red, "She and I are just neighbors + classmates!"
"I know, I know! Haha, Lord Guanglin is really shy!"
How can this be explained?
In the tent and carriage, several girls couldn't help but cover their mouths and smile. Lu Qian was also laughing, but there was a hint of loneliness in her smile.
That's what he thought.
The night is getting darker, and I don't know how many people haven't fallen asleep. Huang Guanglin just stared at the fire in a daze, and it was rare that he didn't delve into the magic array.
His mind was a little confused.
At this time, Captain Harlan beside him suddenly tensed his nerves, and his long sword was pulled out with a bang, "Be vigilant!"
With a low shout, the other knights of the guard also guarded the tent and carriage with their knightly spears. The night was dark, as if there was a sign of snow, but an eerie atmosphere permeated the surroundings.
At this moment, one of the knights of the guard suddenly clutched his neck, rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.
"What?!"
Everyone was shocked, and when they opened his body again, they found that he was foaming at the mouth and completely fainted.
It's good that I'm not dead!
Immediately afterwards, the situation seemed to be contagious, and all of them began to fall to the ground, also foaming at the mouth unconscious. It seems that someone put poison, and they don't want to kill people, so they definitely have no other purpose.
For example, a few girls!
Huang Guanglin and Captain Harun covered their mouths and noses with cloths, and quickly joined Lu Qian and the others who got out of the tent carriage.
"Lord Earl, someone is venting poison gas, please cover your mouth and nose!"
Captain Harlan handed over a piece of cloth, but found that Lu Qian and the others were shrouded in a special light shield, and no matter how powerful the poisonous gas was, they couldn't get in.
Huang Guanglin and Captain Harlan both breathed a sigh of relief.
Belinda magically explored the surroundings, but found no figures.
"Something is wrong! There's no one around!"
Bertha guessed, "Maybe in the distance upwind, the gas felt less like magic, but like it was burning potions." ”
Potions, medicines made from medicinal herbs containing special magical elements, some used to heal, some to drive away wild beasts. Of course, some of them were used to release poison gas to achieve the purpose of controlling the enemy.
Who the hell?!
Huang Guanglin tied the strip of cloth to his mouth and nose, feeling that there was still a small amount of poisonous gas penetrating into his nostrils, he simply took out a brush and drew an air conversion magic array on the strip of cloth.
This magic array is not much different from the magic array on the roof of the carriage that releases aroma, intercepting the odor and automatically creating a small amount of air. Although it is said to be a small amount, it is enough for a person to breathe for a long time.
He thought about it, and simply drew Captain Harlan and the other guard knights who didn't get hit, and then drew a few more and handed them to Lu Qian and them for use in battle.
After no longer being affected by the poisonous gas, everyone checked the condition of the fallen guard knight while guarding the surroundings, and found that there was no danger to life for the time being.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, this matter is not over yet, and the enemy has not yet revealed his true identity. You can't relax for a moment until you kill the other party.
