Chapter 189: Bargaining
At the behest of Princess Kate, Lucia was promoted to the ship's first helmsman, but only in name only. The www.biquge.info who really drove the ship were the mermaid brothers who were hiding in the sea, and they didn't know anything about the ship at the moment.
"Hurry up!
Princess Kate issued an order again, but Lucia was really powerless. She tossed the rudder at will, and by one accident, the entire rudder rolled off. Although they were a little surprised, Louis and Lucia had long known about the situation of the ship, and they did not care so much, only the princess looked like a great enemy, and her face was as dead as ashes.
Taking advantage of this moment, Xuanyu threw a wine jar into the sea and smashed it on Diama's head impartially. Then, as if encountering a huge wave, the ship toppled to one side in an instant. One of them didn't stand firm, and Princess Kate slid low, and the dagger in her hand fell.
Three minutes later, the princess was subdued by Lucia and brought to Xuanyu again. At this time, Xuanyu was carefully wiping the wound on his neck with a handkerchief. Although the wound was not deep, it also stained a handkerchief red, this scene made Lucia look a little upset, for some reason, as a Xuanyu blood-absorbing beast, she actually salivated over her master's blood, and her body, which had not been in contact with blood for a long time, suddenly rolled up. Fortunately, the blood on Xuanyu's neck quickly stopped, and Lucia swallowed a mouthful of spit before she calmed down.
"Planted in your hands, if you want to kill or chop you up!" the princess looked heroic and righteous.
Xuanyu looked amused, and he stood up: "When did I say I was going to kill you?"
Louis nodded incessantly: "Please believe me, those Praetorian Guards who attacked you are not all the way with me, if I catch you, I will definitely give you justice!"
Louis said with a serious face, coupled with the fact that she was controlled by others, the princess also restrained her arrogance, and she took a long breath and said, "Okay, I will trust you. She glared back at Lucia, "Don't let me go!"
From Xuanyu's eyes, Lucia received a tacit order, and then let the princess go. However, this look was discovered by the princess, and in her mind, she had already recognized Xuanyu as the head of the three, she patted her clothes and walked towards Xuanyu: "Send me to the country of the East!"
"Forgive me!" Xuanyu said with a smile in her eyes, but her tone was very indifferent, "I won't go anywhere else except the Strait of Lorraine." ”
"You just said you won't kill me!" the princess was anxious, "what's the difference between sending me to death like this and killing me." ”
"The difference is that we all die with you. Lucia quipped.
Princess Kate glared at Lucia viciously again, then turned around and pointed at the three of them, "You crazy people!"
"Captain of the Praetorian Guard," Xuanyu tilted her head, looked at Louie, and said slowly, "What do you say?"
After a moment of thought, Louis spoke: "Since I met Princess Kate, I can't ignore it. She glanced at the princess, "You can't take her on adventures." With that, she glanced at Xuanyu and waited for his reply.
It's just that Xuanyu didn't move or speak, but quietly waited for Louis to continue.
Louie's eyes blinked twice, and then he made up his mind: "Xuanyu, tell Diama to return!"
"Back to Crescent Manor?" Lucia said.
"Hmm. Louis nodded, her eyes did not leave Xuanyu for a moment, "I will take the princess back to Reino Palace, and then send her home." ”
"No!" Princess Kate suddenly shouted when she heard this, "I don't want to go back!
"But if you don't return to Tart safely, princess, then ......" Louis was about to say that Tart would take the opportunity to wage war against Egrim, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them again, and changed to a more conciliatory statement, "Then the people of both countries will suffer!"
Of course, Princess Kate knew what Louis meant, but she had to work hard to escape, how could she be willing to be sent back like this: "I will repair a letter to my father, and tell him my wishes, and I will not affect the people of Agrim!"
Of course this will not work, Louis raised an eyebrow, the princess is too young after all, how could she understand that she is just an excuse for Tart to start a war against Egrim. Even without her, the war that should come will come sooner or later, but it's better to follow her first. After making up his mind, Louis smiled and said, "Then ask the princess to write a letter." And then...... I will help the princess get out of this land of right and wrong. ”
Louie's sincerity seemed to impress Princess Kate, and she nodded and fell silent. However, Louis was not as indifferent as she seemed, and she was still thinking about how to return the princess to Tart safely.
"Can I go back?" asked Louie.
Touching the wound on his neck, Xuanyu pursed his lips: "Fortunately, it's not far from Crescent Manor, I also want to go back to recuperate, but it's just ......" His eyes glanced down, "I'm afraid they won't want to." ”
When did Xuanyu ever be afraid of the mermaid brothers, although he knew this, after Louie's eyes wandered, a smile of understanding appeared on his face: "This is troublesome;." ”
"What are you talking about, has it been so long to talk about the return home?" said Princess Kate.
"I'll tell you the truth......," Xuanyu said, "this ship is not something that anyone can pilot. ”
Princess Kate glanced at the rudder in the corner where she fell, and she somewhat believed Xuanyu's words: "Then call someone who can drive it to return home!"
"A person who has this ability is very proud, and he must please him before he can do anything. Xuanyu said sincerely, "Although I just said that I am the master of the boat, it is that person who is really in charge." ”
Princess Kate subconsciously looked around: "Where is that person? Call him out and I'll tell him!"
"He doesn't want to show his face......"
"How can you please him if you don't show up?" said Princess Kate.
A bright light flashed in Xuanyu's eyes, and the corners of her mouth hooked again. He slowly took out an object from his waist, which was the mysterious sign found on the ship the day before yesterday: "The main thing is that the male can read the words on it, so ......"
Before Xuanyu could finish speaking, Princess Kate grabbed the sign, "Translation, so much nonsense." ”
The princess was very bold, but when she took the sign, her expression changed dramatically: "Where did you get it?"
"The princess only needs to translate, and don't ask about anything else. Xuanyu still spoke in a slow tone, but her words were full of deterrence.
Princess Kate lowered her head and studied it carefully, and said with a frown: "This is the ancient script of Tarte, and now even in Tart, almost no one knows it, let alone uses it. ”
"Does the princess know each other?" asked Xuanyu.
A smile appeared on the corner of Princess Kate's mouth: "I haven't finished my words yet, although no one uses them anymore, but the royal family of Tart must learn this ancient script for private communication." ”
"So the princess knows?" said the same question a second time, but in a completely different tone.
The princess smirked, "It's not just acquaintance, but this is my best subject." ”
