Chapter 177: Arrangement

"Let's eat, Rick. You haven't eaten in a whole day. ”

Alan patted Rick on the shoulder.

After drinking porridge and eating wild boar, Little Rick's state was much better, and it seemed that he had accepted the facts, and Little Rick didn't mention his grandfather's affairs again.

"Brother Allen, I don't have anything to do now, if you have something to do, you can go and get busy first, I will wait here for you to come back. ”

Alan listened to Rick's words, carefully observed Rick's eyes, and found that the other party was looking at him calmly and calmly, and it seemed that overnight, this eight-year-old child had grown up and matured a lot.

"Rick, brother will take you to a safe and fun place, okay?"

Alan asked tentatively.

"Okay! Grandpa is gone, and I'll go there the same. ”

Alan didn't expect Rick to agree, especially the latter sentence, which made Alan feel sad for a while, but he was just a child, and I believe that his wounds will be healed with the passage of time.

"It's good that you can think so. That place is in the north of the Yuss Empire, and you will have older brothers and younger brothers to play with you, and beautiful aunts who will cook all kinds of delicious food for you. We can't stay here for long, my brother will go out today to contact you to arrange for you to go over there, you are here obediently waiting for me to come back, it's not peaceful outside, and the bad guys may still be tracking us, so you must be obedient and don't run around. Remember?"

After Alan made sure that little Rick had memorized his words, he found Carl's sister-in-law and took out a few silver coins for her, telling her to take care of Rick and that he would be back tomorrow.

Then Alan asked the way, before leaving the hut, trotting away along the path down the mountain, it took about two hours, walking more than a dozen miles, Alan finally saw a town, in the town Alan bought a donkey for a gold coin, originally Alan wanted to buy a horse to travel, his original horse had been turned into ashes in the flaming hell the night before, but this town did not trade horses at all, even if there were a few farmers who raised horses, they were also of great use, and it was impossible to sell them to him, unless Alan was willing to pay a large price, but Alan did not want to attract the attention of others, so in the end, he rode a donkey on the road back to Rock City.

The donkey walked slowly on the road, swimming leisurely, causing Alan to seem to have a trance-like feeling, more than half a year ago, he seemed to be riding on the back of the donkey.

At that time, Big Brother Sterling had not died in battle, he was the one in the mercenary team who liked to play tricks on himself, but in the moment of life and death crisis, it was he who saved himself with his life.

At that time, he was still a teenager who was not deeply involved in the world, full of yearning for an adventurous life and a vision for a better future, but at this moment, he had fully experienced the cruelty and injustice of this world, and his heart was sad and depressed, but the future still had to move forward, because there are still many people who can make this world more warm, and he will inevitably fight for more fairness for them in the future.

Just when Alan was thinking about the future of this world, outside Boulder City, a handsome and tall young man was riding a tall steed and turned to the path leading to Phelps Manor.

Soon, the beautiful gate of Phelps Manor appeared in front of him, and the guard at the gate recognized from a distance that it was the master's favorite grandson, so he opened the gate in advance, and respectfully saluted Andre.

"Good day, Master George!"

Andrei didn't even get off his horse, and rushed directly into the house.

"Ding, ding!"

Several silver coins fell in front of the two guards.

"Thank you, Master George!"

The two guards picked up the silver coins and shouted at Andrei's back, who was already gone.

Before Andre came to the central palace, the butler who was in charge of welcoming the guests had already rushed out, and told Duke Andre that he was waiting for him in the study at this time, and Andre didn't even need the butler to lead the way, and he came to the study on the second floor with a clear and familiar way.

"Come in!"

After Andre knocked on the door, a magnetic baritone voice came from the study, and André pushed the door and walked in.

For the frequent visitors of the Duke's Palace, this study Andre rarely visits, because it is an important place for the Duke to exercise the power of the Imperial Prime Minister and handle the administrative affairs of the Empire in the palace.

It is said to be a study, but there are not many books here, because there is a library dedicated to books in the Duke's Palace, and the books there are piled up like a hill, and André was forced by his mother to live in that library when he was a child.

And the collection of books in this study is more of the books that the Duke likes and will often take out and read, and of course, some official documents or personal letters brought back.

When Andre came in, the duke was holding an old book with a yellowish color in his hand, and he seemed to be so engrossed that he didn't even raise his eyes to look at Andre, and on the desk next to the duke, there was a crystal glass with high legs, but the muller in it had bottomed out.

"Good day, Grandpa!"

André respectfully greeted the Duke.

"Hello! Andrey. ”

The duke casually agreed, but still did not take his eyes off the ancient books.

André went straight to his desk, picked up the empty crystal glass, turned to the closet, picked up an open bottle of Muller, added a little half a glass of wine to the glass, mixed it with some honey and water, stirred it well, and put it back on the desk, André had already told him when he was very young that this was the duke's favorite wine to drink.

"I heard you've been in a close relationship with a girl studying magic lately?"

The Duke finally drew his attention from the ancient book, took a sip of the wine that his grandson had mixed for him, and then cared about his grandson's private life very casually.

"Yes, Grandpa. She is a student in the advanced class of the Academy of Magic, but she will be graduating soon. ”

Although Andrei didn't know why his grandfather suddenly became interested in his love life, he still answered his grandfather's question seriously.

"You, everything, that's like your father. ”

The Duke put down his glass, pointed at his grandson, and criticized with a smile, his expression at this moment looked like that of a kind grandfather.

"Grandpa, this time I'm serious. ”

"Haha! When were you not serious?"

The Duke seemed to have heard the funniest joke of all, and his grandson, who had always been famous for his amorous affairs, told himself very seriously that he was serious about a girl, and that this was probably the only subject that would make him happy for a few days.
