Chapter Ninety-Six: Talking about the Past (Asking for Collection)
"I want to fall into this southeast..."The faceless man savored this sentence, his eyes were full of brilliance, and he praised from the bottom of his heart: "What a forty-eight thousand! ”
Ji Yuan was proud in his heart, this line of poetry by Shixian was just right with this sword. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info ancient swordsman, drinking, chanting poetry and wielding swords, even killing is so poetic.
"But..."
"Where are these places like the Heavenly Mother Five Mountains, Chicheng Tiantai?" The Faceless Man looked at Ji Yuan with interest.
"This..."Ji Yuan secretly exclaimed, laughed dryly, and said: "Your Majesty, I just overheard this poem from a distant traveler, as for where these places are, I don't know..."
"I see." The Faceless One glanced at Ji Yuan deeply, but he didn't delve into it.
Ji Yuan hurriedly opened the topic and asked, "Your Majesty, I don't know who the epic powerhouse who appeared before is?" ”
The Faceless Man waved his robe and said in a deep voice: "He is Norton Gattuso, the contemporary patriarch of the Gattuso family of the Lorendi wealthy family, the father of Dre Gattuso, a veteran epic powerhouse, known as the Golden Lion. ”
"Legend has it that the bloodline of the Gattuso family is inherited from the ancient mythical beast Golden Lion King, so the people with pure Gattuso bloodline are all blonde." Coren and Dre are indeed like this, it seems that they are both descendants of the Gattuso family, Ji Yuan thought secretly.
"By the way, Your Majesty, what do you mean by the realm in Drew's mouth before?" Ji Yuan thought of this stubble, and the feeling of being in the golden world at that time was vivid, and he couldn't help but ask.
"There are two characteristics of an epic powerhouse, one: flying, without the help of any foreign objects or exercises, and freely wandering in the void. The second is the field. I can only tell you so much, and the rest is up to you to discover for yourself. The Faceless Man looked at Ji Yuan meaningfully and said, "Okay, I've said what I should say, you can go." ”
It seems that this Rausch sub-realm is a secret exclusive to epic powerhouses, so why bother thinking about these questions that are still far away for him. Ji Yuan put aside his distracting thoughts, saluted sincerely, and said respectfully: "Thank you for your guidance, and retire first." As soon as he turned around, Ji Yuan seemed to remember something, turned around and said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty..."
"What else?"
In addition to not wanting to deceive the Faceless One, Ji Yuan estimated that he couldn't hide this matter from the Faceless One, so he opened his mouth and said: "Your Faceless One, I took the Nightmare Demon Bead in the Heart Corridor away, and I hope that the Faceless One will forgive your sins." ”
Ji Yuan stared at his feet anxiously, and as soon as the words came out, he regretted it again, what if the faceless person had to pursue the matter? What if the Faceless One had to ask him to return the Orb?
"So that's it, I already know about it." The Faceless One nodded and said, "Since you can walk through the Corridor of Judgment, then this Nightmare Orb will be your reward." ”
"But," the Faceless One added, "I'm glad you could be honest about it. ”
Ji Yuan secretly exclaimed that he was glad that he chose to tell the truth and successfully narrowed the relationship with the Faceless One, no matter what, it is always a good thing to leave a good impression in the heart of an epic powerhouse.
"Thank you for your reward." Ji Yuan saluted, and then turned around and walked out of the hall. The Faceless Man stood on a high platform, silently watching Ji Yuan's back walk away, his mind unpredictable.
......
Walking out of the civic hall, Ji Yuan found that the courtroom was deserted, and the occasional passerby in the court was also in a hurry, but this did not affect their strange gaze at Ji Yuan.
"This is the Shun people?"
"I heard that he is just an ordinary civilian from other places, and he caused this turmoil."
"In this way, the Gattuso family will definitely not let him go..."
Listening to everyone's whispers, facing many scrutiny, ridicule, and schadenfrefreude eyes, Ji Yuan's face did not change, and he did not have the panic and fear expected by others, but it made some people's eyes change slightly.
Walking to the door, Ji Yuan saw Dodge pacing back and forth in front of the door at a glance, seeing his anxious look, Ji Yuan couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and quickly stepped forward and said, "Dodge!" I'm here. ”
Dodge hurriedly turned his head, with a look of joy on his face, rushed over and grabbed Ji Yuan to look up and down, and said with concern: "How is it?" Are you okay? Has the Faceless Crown embarrassed you? ”
"No, His Majesty the Faceless One not only didn't embarrass me, but also instructed me to comprehend the sword intent." Ji Yuan smiled.
"Sword Intent!" Dodge looked shocked, "Before, you relied on sword intent to fight against the coercion of the old lion?" ”
Ji Yuan nodded.
Dodge patted Ji Yuan's shoulder hard, looking at him as if he was looking at some kind of desolate beast, and muttered, "I've never heard of anyone who can comprehend sword intent below the hero level when I'm so old." ”
Ji Yuan smiled, and was just about to open his mouth to comfort Dodge, Dodge's eyes lit up again, patted Ji Yuan's shoulder vigorously, and laughed loudly: "I thought you were very pleasing to the eye at the beginning, but now it seems that I still have a vision for Dodge!" ”
Ji Yuan saw passers-by looking at the two of them with neurotic eyes, and quickly changed the topic: "What about Hathaway?" Why didn't you see her? ”
The laughter stopped abruptly, and Dodge's face instantly turned gray, and he said astringently, "The Gatua family sent someone to pick her up." ”
The two fell silent, and the heroic, passionate and righteous female knight wanted to give up her dream because of herself? Ji Yuan regretted that he chose to come to Lorendi, and even more regretted becoming friends with Hathaway, if he wanted to destroy Hathaway's dream for the sake of this so-called friend, Ji Yuan would rather choose not to have this friend.
"Let's go, go drink with me." Dodge broke the silence.
His thoughts turned around, and finally turned into a long sigh, Ji Yuan nodded slowly: "Okay!" ”
As the sun sets, two young men with their own concerns slowly walk to the end of the street, and the shadows drag on for a long, long time...
......
As an aristocrat, Dodge did not choose to go to any high-end places, but led Ji Yuan into an ordinary tavern on the street. The tavern was mostly filled with mercenaries in leather armor, and the vulgar and the arrogant, the betrayal and the loyal, the treacherous and the brave were extremely skillfully blended in this kind of people.
Dodge was clearly a regular in the tavern, and as soon as he entered the tavern, the mercenaries raised their glasses.
"Dodge Kid, long time no see!"
Dodge's face was a little better, and he whispered to Ji Yuan while greeting him: "I used to come here often, and I like the straightforwardness of these mercenary men more than the deceit and honey-bellied swords at the aristocratic banquets. ”
Ji Yuan nodded secretly, the mercenaries who drank heavily in the tavern and laughed heroically from time to time were a group of vulgar men who were mercenary and murderous without blinking, but compared to the group of beasts dressed in the garb of nobility, they were much better.
"Ugh! It's a Dodge boy! Belch! A dwarf, no more than a meter tall, grabbed the flask and burped as he staggered towards the two. A bearded face, a red wine trough nose, and dizzy eyes, everywhere revealed his state at this time.
Seeing the drunken dwarf, Dodge immediately stopped, looking very respectful.
"Master Ascar, long time no see."
Master Askar nodded, and said vaguely, "How are you like that little guy from your father?" When we meet, we call Master Askar, Master Askar, I've heard it for more than a hundred years, can't you change your name! Aska kept walking, brushed Dodge past him, and fell to the ground with a thud.
Dodge hurriedly helped it up, and Master Askar kept repeating another drink, uh! One more drink...
The mercenaries have long been accustomed to all this, and laughed and said that Aska has to come and go like this every day, and it has become a tradition in the tavern, and if they don't see Master Askar drunk one day, everyone will feel unhappy in their hearts.
Dodge handed Master Aska to the two bartenders, watched the bartender carry the old dwarf upstairs, turned his head and smiled at Ji Yuan: "This is Master Askar of the Iron Hammer Tribe, a recognized master of weapon forging, he is more than two hundred years old this year, my grandfather was his good friend when he was young, my father and I have known Master Askar since childhood, so many years have passed, and there is still no change at all, it is really enviable." ”
The two of them casually found a table and sat down, and Dodge beckoned to the bartender.
"For the strongest wine, take Long Yan, and a few signature dishes, honey-roasted grouse, beef pie..."
The wine was quickly served, and the bartender also lit the wine in the wooden barrel on fire, and the red wine burned with a faint blue flame, which really looked like a dragon flame.
"Bang! Syllable! Dodge placed two glasses, turned the barrel sideways, and a line of fire poured out, and soon, a faint blue flame also ignited in the glass.
"Drink!" Dodge pushed the wine glass in front of Ji Yuan, and took a sip of his own, and the flames disappeared from his mouth.
Ji Yuan looked at the flame in the wine glass with some embarrassment, he had only drunk beer before, not to mention this way of drinking, he had never even drunk liquor.
"Drink it, it's the signature wine here." Dodge urged, and everyone in the tavern looked at it as well.
reminds me of the previous novels that the alcohol content of the other world is very low, and the protagonists basically have the trick of selling alcohol to get rich. Ji Yuan's heart was horizontal, and he drank the flames with his eyes closed.
"Good! Pretty! That's what a man is! The mercenaries cheered and excitedly banged their cups on the table.
Ji Yuan only felt a line of fire burning from his throat all the way to his lower abdomen, and finally turned into a ball of flames, heading straight for his brain.
This Nima! Who said that the alcohol of the Otherworldly Wine is low? Are you an idiot or are you taking everyone for an idiot? It's a good thing that people are in the world of high magic and high martial arts, why can't they make wine with a high degree? Hemp eggs! Whoever believes in novels in the future will be SB. Ji Yuan closed his eyes and breathed, and finally suppressed this flame.
When he opened his eyes, he looked at Daoqi like a monster, and the reaction of these mercenaries seemed to be that Ji Yuan had done something great, and Ji Yuan was curious: "What's wrong?" ”
Dodge gave a thumbs up and praised: "Amazing, Long Yan is the strongest wine here, and it has a lot of stamina, even senior drunkards don't dare to take such a sip." ”
it! Only then did Ji Yuan remember that Fang Cai Dodge just took a sip, blaming the novel for pit people! Ji Yuan's old face turned red, but fortunately, he couldn't see clearly in the dim light, Ji Yuan pretended to be casual, "What?" Is this wine so strong? I don't feel it. ”
Dodge was stunned for a moment, speechless at Ji Yuan's pretense, and angrily drank the remaining wine in the cup.
After two glasses of wine, the atmosphere began to relax, and Dodge left his mouth in a drunken daze, "You know what? I've known Hathaway since I was a child..."
