Chapter 1 The Gate of Desire Section 71 Chasing the Wind and Chasing the Horse
Unch and Farrug searched for the escaped Lea for three days and three nights, but there was nothing more difficult in the world than to chase the wind. On the fourth day, Unch and Farouge had to board the ferry to the city, but this time, only the two of them were left.
It took another two days for Unch and Farouge to disembark at the docks of Desire. According to Unki's original plan, they should disguise themselves as adventurers from other places, spend all their savings lavishly, and have to live on debt, and then naturally approach those who are suspicious of them.
However, at this time, Unqi had lost that mind, because Liya was still missing, she escaped, and took the Forbidden Soul Sword Cangwu. Without that sharp sword, Wu Enqi and they would not have been able to break through the demon general-level defense, and even if they attacked, they would not be able to pose a deadly threat to the old demon in the mountain. In light of this, Unqi and Farrouge had to put their plans to Slayer aside.
After getting off the boat, Wuenqi hurried to the East 19th District. In NightClan's houseboat, Unki finds Mosa and his Anemo maid, Yanai. Wu Enqi told the story of the little fairy who couldn't subdue them when they stole chickens and rice in Jinglan Harbor, and then told the story of their separation from Liya.
When Yanayi heard this, she leaned back and fell back with a smile, and Mosa also smiled silently.
"Don't stop laughing at the two of you, where can that little girl run to Leah?" Farouge and I searched all over the Harbor and couldn't find her, so I had to come back and ask for help. I think Miss Yanayi is also a Wind Clan, so she should have some clues. ”
Yanayi smiled and said, "The wind is invisible, if Liya has the intention to avoid you, of course you can't find her." Since you think her temperament is not good, why don't you just change to a maid?"
"I made a bloodline sharing contract with Leah, and the contract said 'blood and soul, in the same boat, hand in hand, life and death', unless it is absolutely necessary, I don't want to break the contract." ”
Yanayi asked, "So, even if she dislikes you and still speaks ill of you behind your back, you don't blame her?"
"I'm not blaming him, I'm worried," Unchi said. Why is she like this? Or am I disgusting, filthy and unbearable for her?"
Yana Itilia explained, "You're too worried. Abuse of birds, cats, rabbits, mice, and similar things I did when I was a teenager. This is perfectly normal for our WindClan girls. When girls are rebellious, other Holy Clan girls may be able to be presumptuous, but our Wind Clan girls can only accept it and hold all the unhappiness in their hearts. There's always a way to vent your frustration, don't you?"
Unqi nodded as if he didn't understand, and Yanayi said again: "She dislikes you, don't take it to heart." In fact, it was all your fault, you gave her so much blood that she mistook you for her father. Rebellious daughters will alienate their fathers because they need another Prince Charming, so you will be hated. Don't worry too much about this kind of thing, it will be natural for her to grow up a little more. ”
Unqi suddenly realized, he spoke to Mousa for a while, and then left the houseboat with Faroug in peace. As soon as the two of them left on their front feet, Leah appeared in the cabin where they had just spoken, and she kept touching her tears with her hands, and looked at Moussa and Yanayi pitifully.
Liya mourned, "Sister Yanayi, thank you for speaking for me. They're going to accept me, right?"
Yanayi patted Liya on the head and said, "Don't cry, this time the tank, big sister, I'll help you top, but don't have a next time." I can't see it, you're still abusing birds, that kind of thing is terrible when I think about it. ”
Lea hung her head, thanking Yanayi for her kindness, and then chased after Unki's figure and left NightClan's houseboat.
After Lea left, Yanayi said to Mousa, "Leah, this little girl is a soft and deadly poisonous snake, she follows Unqi, you can rest assured?"
"Although the vipers are deadly, they never bite their own people with their fangs, and even the vipers are much better than our holy people," said Moussa. What's more, he needs her, and it is precisely because she is a poisonous snake that she will become his fangs. ”
Yanayi shrugged and said, "I really can't see through you, I don't have much time left, and I can't protect you for long." You two can do it for yourselves. ”
At this time, it was the beginning of December of the 51420 year of the Taiyi calendar, and the cold and cruel winter of Xinglan Gulu was about to go away, and the bright and warm spring breeze was already on the way.
These days, a piece of news shocked the entire Demon Domain. On the last day of winter, the Holy Emperor Tak Aberon will travel to the East Nineteenth District of the Demon City: The Gate of Desire, where the newly built open-air theater in the East Nineteenth District will star in a burlesque called "Dragon Slaying Winter" to make the Demon Emperor laugh. It is said that the Knights Templar, composed entirely of high-ranking saints, will also arrive with the Holy Emperor.
Not counting the Knights of the Holy Emperor, there are simply so many legends who have watched the premiere of "Dragon Slayer". The First Demon King Sainz, the Third Demon King Tsuna, the Fifth Demon King Fuma Bodi, the Sixth Demon King Nagrede, the Styx Princess Momo, the Eighth Demon King Hildrik, the Tenth Demon King Akleseye, the Twelfth Demon King Tunmi Sanmuza, and many other big names were all among the invited guests.
In fact, the eight-armed mad demon king Hildrick, the fire demon king Akleseye, and the chaos dragon demon king Tunmi Sanmuza were not originally the guests to be invited by the Sea Overlord. However, the Holy Emperor is here, and they naturally want to follow the trend to the Demon Capital of Desire.
Now that the news of the kings gathering at the Gate of Desire has already spread throughout the entire Xinglan Ancient Land, the Demon Capital and the Gate of Desire are boiling, and countless pious pilgrims have flocked to this huge city to pay homage to the glory of the Holy Emperor and the Holy Kings.
Among the tens of thousands of pilgrims, three inconspicuous adventurers threw 100,000 holy crystals at the government hall of the North 4th District, buying a small building and three permanent residences in the civic district. Walking out of the government hall, Unqi, Farrag and Lea each wore a star-shaped badge on their chests, and from then on they were truly high-class demons.
In the newly bought small building, the three little grasshoppers who have been reconciled get together again to discuss how to trip the giant elephant. In the few days that they were not in the magic capital, something big happened in the magic capital. The world's craftsman Qi Dafen embezzled a huge amount of money to build a large shipyard was exposed, and he was driven out of the Demon City of Desire, and his whereabouts are still unknown. Hearing this, Unqi sighed, shook his head and crossed out Chitafin's name from the list of suspects of the old demon in the mountains.
Unqi said to Farouge: "It's not easy to do something, but it's easy to ruin a business. The old demon taught us a lesson, and his clever plan to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle was really good. ”
Faroug nodded, his face extremely heavy.
Since the matter of preparing for the construction of a large shipyard has made a lot of noise, the old demon in the mountains hidden in the magic capital will obviously not sit idly by. Perhaps in the eyes of others, it is not easy to destroy this matter proposed by the Demon Emperor and unanimously approved by the Demon King, but the old demon in the mountain lifted his weight lightly, and it didn't take much effort to make the move to build a large shipyard stillborn.
I heard that the demons want to integrate shipbuilding technology, build a large shipyard, and develop the most powerful aerospace ship. As a boat man, Unqi originally wanted to make trouble from it, but he thought about it, but he didn't know where to start.
Because there is no weakness in the matter of preparing for the construction of a large shipyard, at the moment of the great enemy, whoever dares to jump out and obstruct this matter will stand on the opposite side of the entire demon clan and become the target of everyone. However, although there is no weakness in things, the people who do things have birth, old age, sickness and death, seven emotions and six desires. If you bring down the person who did the work, you will naturally not be able to do it.
Unqi wandered around the house and said to Faruger, "We still have nine thousand holy crystals, you can go to the North Tenth District in the evening to buy some news." Let the ghosts help us find out who did the trick on Chitafin. ”
Farrouge left behind the puppet and took the order.
In the early morning of the next day, the ghost of Farug floated back to report to Unqi: Chitaphin had embezzled a huge amount of money from the construction of the shipyard, and the facts were conclusive, and it was by no means a false accusation; the demon who exposed him was actually his butler, and now the villain who rebelled against the lord had been canonized as a lord; as for the mastermind behind the incident, it seems that there is no such thing.
"I don't believe that there is no black hand, and Chitaphine is not short of money, so why should he embezzle the funds for the construction of the shipyard?"
Farrouge replied, "It is said that Mr. Chitaphin is in love with Miss Margaret, a celebrity in the magic capital. She owed a huge amount of money, so she got entangled in the big tree of Chitafin. Mr. Chitaphine was probably carried away by lust, so he embezzled the money from the construction of the shipyard to pay off his lover's debts. ”
"Where is that Miss Margaret now?"
"She's a famous courtesan in the magic capital, and she's now entangled with Duke Valentin Brem, who is richer than Chithalfin," Farugue said. ”
Unqi pursed his lips contemptuously and asked again, "Who exactly does Margaret owe, have you investigated?"
"She seems to owe the moneylender Candida's father 9.6 million holy crystals, and God knows how she, a single girl, could owe so much money," Faruger said. Do you want me to investigate her?"
Unqi smiled, "I want to investigate her, but I can't send you." I don't want you to fall into the trap of gentleness and be turned against her. We don't need to investigate Margaret, she's just a pawn who sells her flesh at best. That moneylender, Daddy Candida, I've heard his name before, even Alfonso said 'he eats you and won't spit out the bones'. Let's go to the Southwest District 4 to meet him and see what kind of person he is. ”
