Chapter XXXVIII
A few days later, Xue Yan took his farewell to Pasta. The Whimsy stopped on the side of the road, the weather was fine today, and it was a cool morning, there were not many pedestrians on the road, and there were not a few convoys in sight, which made the departure of the Whimsy easier. Last night they had parked the Whimsy on the side of the road and spent the night in the carriage. On the second day, it didn't take long for Xue Yan to say such a goodbye.
"Pleasant times are always fleeting and never to return. Xue Yan said to Pasta and Lulunaka, who were sitting in the driver's seat, "Although I am very reluctant, it is time to say goodbye." ”
Hearing Xue Yan's words of farewell, neither Lulunaka nor Pasta had many surprised expressions. "I thought I could take you into town along the way. Pasta smiled at Xue Yan. As for Lulunaka, her eyes widened slightly, and she didn't look too surprised.
"Thank you so much for having such an idea, you are one of the few kind people I have ever met. Xue Yan lifted his hat, his wide-brimmed hat with half a broken feather, which made him look more like a down-and-out artist. "But I actually left King's Castle earlier, because meeting you made me feel uncomfortable moving away from that great city. Oh, I didn't take a few feet, though the wheels were turning, thank you again, Mr. Pasta. ”
"Mr. Xue Lun, why don't you go with us to the legendary King's Castle again?" Lulunaka blinked, her face a little reluctant, "Maybe we need some guides, if it's you, we'll be relieved." ”
"The lovely lady's kindness to me did make me hesitate. Xue Yan laughed, "But leave when it's time to leave, this is what a dashing bard should look like, otherwise, he will just be a boring playboy." ”
Hearing Xue Luna's words, Lulunaka chuckled, "You're far from being handsome, Uncle Xue Lun." You are as dear as my uncle back home. ”
Lulunaka's words made Xue Yan want to applaud and dance, of course, not because of the meaning of praise. Lulunaka's words can be regarded as gentle and mean, and she laughed at Xue Yan for not being handsome at all, and she felt like an uncle in her hometown...... For Xue Yan, who is only in his thirties, this is not something that will make him happy to listen to it. If you want to talk about the art of speaking, Xue Yan feels that she still has to learn from this girl who can be regarded as a little girl.
But Lulunaka has a strange charm, her smile always makes people forget about unhappiness and annoyance, even if her mouth is a little poisonous, it only makes people think that she is so cute.
"Thank you for the compliment, Lulunaka. Xue Yan didn't feel any displeasure, but the smile on his face was even more. Compared to the vulgar and savage tavern hooligans, Lulunaka is as perfect as an angel, except that this angel speaks a little evilly, "But don't be too willful when you're out and about, or your uncle will be troubled." As he said this, Xue Lunaka also touched Lulunaka's head, although Lulunaka was wearing a cloak, it did not prevent Xue Luna from touching the little head. Lulunaka can be regarded as petite among her peers, and when she is touched by Xue Yan like this, she has no chance to resist at all.
Xue Yan didn't go too far in teasing Lulunaka, and quickly took his hand back, "I don't think I should delay your time here, you two, take care." ”
At this time, Julius poked his head out of the roof of the carriage shed, "Mr. Xue Yan, are you leaving?"
His reaction looked a little sluggish, Xue Yan just smiled and waved his hand at Julius, "Take good care of your cousin, Julius, you are a brother." "If you can, I hope you can look like a brother, but Xue Yan won't say this, otherwise it will be too hurtful.
Julius didn't seem to know what to say, just scratched his face, "Well, I wish you a good journey, Mr. Xue Lun." I'll miss your performances and stories. ”
Xue Lun laughed, hugged his harp to his chest, and flicked it a few times, making a pleasant sound, "This is really the best compliment for a bard." Goodbye, three, if there is fate, I hope we can see you again!"
Xue Yan turned around and left in the opposite direction, and the figure quickly disappeared at the end of the road.
After seeing Xue Yan leave, Pasta waved his whip to get the horse moving again, and the Wonder moved slowly. Julius retracted his head, and he sat on the roof of the carriage shed, looking up at the sky with a bored and melancholy expression, and reached out to touch the fur of Ward, who was lying beside him. Ward's smooth fur felt nice to the touch, but Ward's weak appearance really didn't interest Julius much.
"Uncle Xue is gone, there will be a lot less fun along the way. Lulunaka said, sighing, "It's a shame, I really intended him to be our guide." After all, I'm not very familiar with the current King's Castle. ”
"I don't think it's a good thing to have this kind of fun. "It's a perverted pleasure to be happy to see someone else look ignorant." ”
"Mr. Edgar, are you calling me a pervert?" Lulunaka looked at her "uncle" with a smile on her face.
"I'm telling the truth. Pasta didn't look nervous, "Not against anyone, but it just occurred to me that if anyone thinks I'm talking about her, it's probably a misunderstanding." ”
"Could that be the case?" Lulunaka stared at Pasta for a moment with a smile on her face before looking away. "It's boring, I thought I could scare you. You and Olga don't seem to be too afraid of me off. "She's not such a small person, she just wants to scare Pasta and see how panicked he looks, but it seems that there is no such opportunity.
"Your interests are too bad, niece. Pasta just smiled and said something that made Lulunaka look even more unhappy. "So, you've been with a suspicious spy for a while, what did you get, or what did you want?"
"Are you interested in this?"
"I always have a pair of eyes around me that are looking for secrets, and I will always be more sensitive. "I'm worried I'm going to be discovered by people I don't really want to see." ”
"You're too sensitive, Mr. Edgar. Lulunaka laughed, "You're not as important as you think, I'll count the time...... It's been more than half a year, and I think even if someone was looking for you, they probably gave up, right?"
Pasta was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Indeed, I am self-inflicted, but I am just a down-and-out knight, something that can be discarded after use." And I look like this, probably not many people will be able to recognize me. ”
"The way you look now is much more pleasing to the eye than the first time I saw you. Lulunaka said, "When I first saw you, I could barely hold back the smile on my face, and I thought to myself where this pedantic and hypocritical stinky knight came from, and my mood deteriorated a lot. ”
Hearing Lulunaka say this, Pasta also had a slight smile on her face, "I didn't expect to see a little girl, but an old devil. ”
Lulunaka shook her finger at Pasta with a strange smile on her face, "Isn't it too much to say I'm the devil?"
Pasta coughed a few times, as if to divert the awkward topic, and to expose each other and reminisce about the disgraceful past, which was really not a pleasant topic, "This matter can be debated for a long time, but I am not that interested in it now." ”
"Very well, so let's talk about something that will make people happy. Lulunaka was very cooperative with Pasta and changed the subject, "Our handsome and dashing bard, Mr. Xue Yan, does not seem to have any intention of us, he is only approaching us out of a momentary interest. No mission, no mission, which is why there is not so much suspicious stench on him. ”
"He seems to be a clean-minded person. Pasta said.
"No, I'm not talking about hygiene. Lulunaka blinked, "Doing intelligence work like this, there is always an unpleasant smell, that can't be washed off......" Speaking of this, Lulunaka seemed to react, "Oh, of course you're not talking about hygiene, what am I thinking?"
Pasta had a little more smile on her face, and she looked a little smug. "How many people do you think he's killed?" Pasta asked.
"Someone like him who has no merit can be used as an eyeliner to gather some inconsequential information at best. Lulunaka said, "Did you kill anyone? Maybe." But do you have the ability? Probably not. ”
"He said goodbye, what about you?"
"Which caravan will he probably get into to enter the King's Castle, it is more important than interest or work. Lulunaka said, "It's better not to see you." ”
Pasta nodded in agreement.
The Whimsy continued to move slowly, and the King's Castle was not far away.
