"Three guest officers, the best oolong tea - come on!"

Xiao Er, who was draped with a white rag on his shoulder, poured tea for them, the translucent tea juice showed an amber-like color in the tea bowl, and the fragrance of tea accompanied by the thick water vapor overflowed from the low tea bowl mouth, and the open window was facing the prosperous commercial street in the town.

Reginard looked at the bustling streets, and vaguely seemed to have the illusion that Ionia, the ancient country of the East that had only existed in imaginary depictions, was finally embodied beneath his feet.

The vendors wearing straw hats on the streets, the restaurants with lanterns and flags, the green tiles and cornices, and the old plaques on the top of the doors gradually became clear in the shouts of the hawkers.

Xanadu -

Perhaps there is no better word to describe this place. Looking up, it seems that the heart has found a peaceful place to settle in the midst of this noise, which is a kind of ...... It was as if there was a sense of tranquility that had not been stained by war.

"A few masters must have come from Noxus, right?" Xiao Er asked with a smile, and couldn't help but glance at the monkey as he spoke.

Although Reginard had said when he entered the door that he didn't have to pay attention to the monkey next to him, he still felt uncomfortable with this strange guest, after all, it was a strange thing for a monkey to walk around in tattered clothes, and the monkey sat on a chair and scratched his ears and cheeks, and he couldn't sit still for a while.

It wasn't until he received a few bounties that he felt a lot more cheerful, and hurriedly poured a cup of hot tea into the bowl full of tea in front of the monkey, although he still felt that the monkey was really blind with this fine tea.

"It's not ......," Reginard denied.

However, Xiao Er didn't seem to intend to get an answer, or felt that such a refusal was just a lie in the field, and continued: "There are a lot of Noxians who have been here recently, and I don't know if they fled or what happened. ”

"It's true that I'm fleeing the war." Taylor said in a low voice, mentioning this matter, and his voice also showed a certain cold meaning, "It may be about to start, the war with Bilgewater." ”

"And Bill Geewater?" Reginard was a little surprised, he thought, and took a sip of the tea, which smelled fragrant but bitter in his mouth. The contrasting taste is similar to coffee, but it doesn't feel the same.

The reason why he was in a hurry to come to Ionia and persuade Li Qing to return to the War Academy was precisely because he heard that Noxus was going to invade Ionia, and he didn't want Li Qing to be affected by this turmoil, and if such a talented summoner was made a prisoner of war in Noxus, no one knew what the consequences would be for their black magic.

Could it really be that the information is wrong? But he clearly saw that in the dream, the iron hoof of Noxus......

"I'm not, though." Taylor said. "I was born as a hunter, and the forest was cut down, and the officials of the city-state wanted to take all the hunters in the forest to the lumber yards and mines to work as coolies, and I killed the official, and I died here."

He still remembered the thrill of sending the knife into the officer's chest, the horror and powerlessness of the bully in the face of death, and the feeling of leaping in his chest, so that he would never regret the path he had chosen......

Reginard looked at the man, he was like the cold and silent water of an autumn lake, his eyes and voice were obviously trapped in a deep memory, as if the calm water rippled in layers.

There shouldn't be any fakes, and it's also reasonable to hide it from strangers and fellow travelers you just met because of your identity as murderers and outlaws.

"Hey! Who wants to live in Noxus for the rest of their lives? The guest at the next table said that he also spoke the lingua franca with a Noxian accent, which also seemed to be from Noxus.

Another person who was traveling with him also said yes, "That place of smoke and miasma! Fallen nobles, come to the military department again! The result is the same, we still don't have enough to eat, we don't have enough clothes, and we don't even have a guarantee of safety. If you really compare it, Ionia is really a paradise life......"

Before the words fell, only a cold sound of breaking the air was heard, and a knife stabbed into the table in front of the two people with a "bell", and the blade of the knife trembled and let out a low roar like a threat.

The person who shot it was Taylor, "What scum!" Don't forget that you are a Noxian, a foreigner, but you gain advantage by slandering your homeland to curry favor with others? He said indignantly, his voice cold as if he had struck a blade.

Several people were frightened when they saw the short knife piercing the table, although Taylor looked thin, and there were many rough patches on the hooded cloak that half-covered his face and forehead, and he didn't look heroic, but those Noxians had a huge body, but they seemed to be completely intimidated by the momentum of the blade, and they didn't dare to breathe.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, you have something to say." Seeing this, Xiao Er hurriedly played the round. Several Noxian guests also apologized and ran downstairs in embarrassment.

"By the way, are there any temples or other places around here that are suitable for cultivation?" Reginard felt that the atmosphere was too awkward, and asked about other things.

"You're asking the right person, this guest officer, wait a moment." Xiao Er put the towel that was a little yellowed because of the tea stain on his shoulder again, and quickly went downstairs, and soon turned back again, this time he took a piece of paper rolled into a cylinder in his hand, the paper seemed to be made of straw, very different from parchment, and it really didn't look very valuable.

"This is a map of the neighborhood here, by the hand of the town's master cartographer, and there have been a lot of visitors to the town recently, so I have specially prepared some. If the guest officer wants to take it, it won't cost much. Xiao Er put the paper tube in the empty space on the table, unfolded and flattened, and the inside was really a map, which was hand-drawn on the paper with a black pen, like a navigation chart, but there was a special charm in it. Although the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas are only sketched with a few strokes, the towering mountains and waves in the sea between the lines are vividly on the paper.

Xiao Er pointed to the town in the center of the map, marked the word "Starfall" with ink on the side, and drew a glowing boulder. "This is Starfall Town, legend has it that the stars in the sky fell here, and the plain was formed here, and now there is still the sacred stone in the town. Surrounded by five mountain ranges outside the town, "Xiao Er swiped his fingertips between several mountain ranges outside the town, and the trajectory of the connection vaguely formed the shape of a five-pointed star, Reginard sighed secretly whether this strange feeling is natural or man-made, maybe it is not surprising that all strange things happen in this ancient island country in the east, right?

"These five mountains are hidden into the stars, so it is also called 'Wuxingyue', Daiyue is in the east, it is the head of the Xingyue, there are many temples, in Ionia, all the spiritual masters will come to this mountain to understand the heaven and earth. Guest: This should be the place you want to go. "Xiao Er's fingers draw a few circles here to show the emphasis." Further east of Daiyue is the coast, but there are too many reefs near the sea to go to sea, so there is only a small fishing village, and there is a seaport in the north of this village, which is the only external port in Ionia...... However, this humble fishing village is home to the famous Wind Swordsmanship. The two of them came from afar, and this art of martial arts is indeed worth seeing. ”

"Tempest...... Swordplay? Gym? The monkey scratched his ears and cheeks even more excitedly, and bared his teeth restlessly, "Isn't that amazing!" I'm going, I'm going! ”

"Quiet." Taylor threw out two heavy words impatiently.

"You monkey, I'm talking to the two guest officers, you can just eat tea quietly." Xiao Er also said, while the result of the reward of Reginard, the businessman's enthusiastic smile.

"What is there to drink from this thing? Just soak that leaf in water! The monkey bared its teeth and clutched its cheeks.

"This is a good oolong tea, you monkey has no human form, and you don't know anything about the goods."

"Oo-Dragon-Tea?" Reginard jerkily recited the name with Xiao Er, and his heart swelled with infinite uncertainty about this special drink, "Does it have anything to do with the black dragon?" ”
