Padraic Sword Saint was not a person who was good at words, but he was recognized by Lin An and had a purpose to see through it, so he didn't say anything, and disappeared in an instant.

“…… Don't even leave a word of threat, do you think I won't expose Merlin? Lin An was helpless.

Because of the transfer of the Grand Duke in advance, the arrival of the Great Sword Saint of Padraic was not seen by anyone other than Lin An in the end, but Lin An's sudden request to transfer the Grand Duke alarmed Gustav.

"I was negligent, and during the false alarm before, I should have shifted my father's position." Although he did not know that an Assassin had indeed visited, Gustav also thought of a loophole.

If the Assassins used this method to locate the important members of Oginets, it would undoubtedly be equivalent to revealing their own position, so Gustav had no objection to Lin An's abrupt request, but rather increased his appreciation.

He questioned Lin An and made sure that there was no disadvantage to the health of Grand Duke Oginets, and placed the Grand Duke and Little Alex in a multi-layered underground vault.

……

"The Grand Duke is awake!"

The Grand Duke woke up again, and the maid guards of the Duke's Palace rushed to tell each other.

The healing effect of "Atamigli's Source of Soul" is slightly inferior to that of "Song of Everything", but Grand Duke Oginets's soul trauma was not as severe as Lin An's time, and the Grand Duke himself is strong-willed, and the effect of taking medicine is better than Lin An's expectations. According to her estimate, when the follow-up effect of the medicine is slow, there should be no need to take the second bottle of "Atamigli's Soul Source".

After taking the "Source of Atamigli's Soul", the Grand Duke woke up the next day and summoned Gustav to the bedside. The two fathers and sons talked behind closed doors for a while. For the next two days, Gustav was busy, and Grand Duke Oginets was getting better and better day by day.

Lin An secretly compared Grand Duke Oginnets with Emperor Alabhaham in his heart, and secretly sighed that these heroes were older and stronger than the other.

“…… Would you like to talk to me? ”

On the third day after taking the "Atamigri Soul Source", Lin An checked again and announced the news that the Grand Duke's soul wound had basically healed.

Don't talk to the Grand Duke. At the same time as he opened his mouth to Lin An, Qi Li'er and the others in the room had stopped what they were doing and retreated silently.

The old man on the bed was a little weak but still not angry and his mighty gaze swept to the corner, Lin An felt that the aura that had been hidden around the Grand Duke hesitated for a moment, fluctuated slightly, and withdrew from her perception range.

"Can you walk around my courtyard, I can only get permission now if I ask you - half a month ago. I also raced a horse on the racecourse, and now everyone thinks I'm a bad old man, but I don't think it's too much to blow the old bones and get some fresh air. ”

"Okay."

Lin Anwan'er, go out and ask Qi Lier to prepare a wheelchair. The spell sent the levitating Grand Duke firmly into the seat of the wheelchair, and after a while, Lin An was already pushing the wheelchair and walking in the courtyard full of phalaenopsis and white hostas.

"When I woke up in a trance, it was already late summer and early autumn."

"I've always liked this time of year, it's cool and there's a lot of fruit."

"At first glance, it is a little girl who has never been to the country, this season is the time when the autumn harvest is approaching, it is most prone to drought or frost, an unprepared autumn frost can destroy a lot of fruit, many serf tenant farmers pray to the goddess of harvest every day!"

"You know that?"

"What's this. I had planted the field myself, though in the autumn most of the wheat had been eaten by locusts. ”

"Hehe......"

After walking for a while in the breezy courtyard, the guards standing under the cloister gradually moved away, Lin An pushed the wheelchair to the bottom of a lush rose vine, and the Grand Duke stopped Lin An and stopped the wheelchair.

"I've been awake for three days, and I've been watching you and a few of your buddies to see what kind of people you are."

It's the rhythm of a formal conversation. Lin An knew that the main topic was coming, and he was a little curious, and said with a smile: "Do you have a conclusion?" ”

"A few of your companions are very interesting people. Especially you," the silver-haired old man looked at Lin An, who was listening attentively on a white stone bench in front of him, "I don't know when a little girl like you appeared on the mainland, but from the first time I saw you, I knew that my son's idea was wrong. ”

Lin An's eyes were slightly surprised, he didn't speak, and listened to the old man continue.

But the old man did not continue on this topic, and as for Gustav's intentions, he thought that it had come to an end, and continued with the rhythm of the topic at his disposal:

"Looks like you're planning to leave."

The old man hadn't left the underground secret room at all in the past few days, Lin An didn't expect him to even see this, and nodded slightly, "Yes, your injuries are basically healed, and we are ready to continue our journey." ”

"It's also a matter of time, and although it's a pity, people like you and your partner are always not willing to stay in one place for a long time. You see the whole sky in your eyes, just like those migratory birds that migrate all year round, and do not stop for any scenery, and it is always gratifying to see a young man of my age who is free and open-minded—"

The old man said unhurriedly, the rhythm of his voice carried a very convincing appeal, although the fighting qi of his cultivation had been accompanied by the weakening of his body, it did not prevent his words from still containing a certain power that could directly hit people's hearts:

"But I am embarrassed that you children come and go like migratory birds, leaving Oginets with an unbearable kindness. Oginets has formed many sincere friendships and supported each other to get to where they are now, but kindness is sometimes a burden, which may bend Oginez's back - Oginets's golden blood is not afraid of those enemies that lurk in the shadows, but it will be difficult to find opportunities to reciprocate kindness. ”

When the old man said this, his somewhat cloudy eyes looked at Lin An quietly. "Three generations of Oginets have owed you and your companions a kindness, and this is rare in the history of the past thousand years, and the highlanders have never defaulted on their kindness, so please forgive an old man's worries, I don't want to wait until the day I lie down in the tomb, and I still think about it, and I can't sleep well even when I am buried in the ground."

Lin An had already understood what the old man meant. For people like them, owing favors is more terrible than most things, and the old man is not worried about the young heir, and wants to settle the matter as soon as possible.

"I see, you're right, I do have something that I need Oginets' help in the face of fear - before that. I have to ask for your forgiveness for one thing......"

Since he has been open and honest to this point, if he doesn't give up his purpose, he will inevitably be suspected of deceiving him, Lin An secretly sighed at the old spiciness, leaned back slightly, raised his head and smiled, and untied the illusion bead that Athena gave to everyone from his belt. It was placed on a stone table beside it.

Starry eyes like the night sky, ebony black hair, and a dark purple robe with silver stripes wrapped around the bumpy body...... A silhouette that even the best artists in the world could not depict gradually unfolded in front of the Grand Duke.

The Grand Duke came back to his senses very quickly, and in a short period of time, he had already eliminated the visual impact of Lin An's appearance, looked at Lin An in surprise with some appreciative eyes, and finally sighed:

"Old man, you can forgive your motives to hide your true colors! Now it seems that my son's vision is much better than that of his ancestors, and if the old man had been twenty years younger, he would never have given up the opportunity to pursue you—please accept my compliments to you as a man! ”

He leaned over slightly. Raise your hand and fold off a dewy rose in full bloom among the lush vines next to it, turn it over in front of your chest with both hands gracefully and dexterously, and gently hand out the rose flower with your right hand.

The old man sat in a wheelchair, bowed slightly, and his flexible saluting movements were smooth, and he could vaguely see his sassy and chic demeanor when he was young, like a bottle of old wine that had been stored for many years, and still exuded a long-lasting and mellow charm.

Lin An took the flower. Put it on the tip of your nose and sniff it, and you can't help but smile:

"Compared to the young lads, you are full of the deep charm that represents the experience of the years, like a bottle of old wine that has been condensed and precipitated. Competitiveness is not lost to anyone. ”

The Grand Duke burst out laughing.

The conversation under the rose vine was much longer than the originally expected walking time, and by the time Gustav came to him, Lin An had already put on the illusion bead again, and was pushing the wheelchair back along the path.

The two talked softly as they walked, and the atmosphere was harmonious, and when they saw Gustav and Tomia coming over, the Grand Duke turned his head and winked at Lin An.

Gustav suddenly knew that the two were talking and speculating, obviously the result was good, his eyes lit up slightly, he glanced at Lin An, a smile appeared on his deep and heroic face, and took over Lin An's original position.

Lin An pursed his lips, gave up his position, and glanced at the Grand Duke with a smile, but a little regret passed in the latter's eyes, and then was covered by a smile.

……

At the end of the road, two dusty figures appeared, and far behind them, a low-key carriage followed unhurriedly.

"It's finally here! Hey, why is there no one in front of the city gate, is it possible that the city gate is closed so early? Andrei put his hands on the pergola and looked out at the sun setting in the west.

Shirmile didn't say a word, walked directly to the city gate, and came back shortly, "The whole city is blocked, and you can't get in." ”

"Brother Andre, can't you go into the city? I'll take you inside. The carriage behind the two approached, stopped, and a soft female voice came from the carriage.

Shiryl glanced back, the black-haired young man didn't hear it, scratched his head, took out a piece of paper and wrote it directly, muttering, "...... It seems that I have to notify Ann, hey, I finally arrived so many days in advance, and I wanted to surprise Ann! ”

……

In the Oginets mansion, Lin An took out a note from the Ring of Artemis.
