After Chen Yi killed the team of the city guards in Crescent City, he had an unexpected harvest and got more than a dozen horses. On the other side of the woods, if it weren't for this little girl named Erica leading the way, he would have missed it.

The little girl took him to a wooded area a few kilometers away, and pulled out a small package from the hollow of a large tree that was about to die.

"The other day, my grandfather suddenly became seriously ill and he called me over and asked me to send this package to Port Uk. Uncle Victor was also sent to escort me. Unexpectedly, before we left, Bruce Sheen's men killed us. ”

Speaking of this, her voice choked a little, and tears couldn't stop flowing down/down, "Grandpa is dead, and so are my parents." Uncle Victor sneaked me out of town, fled here, and died in the end. ”

"I'm sorry for what happened to you." Chen Yi sighed, in this medieval-like era, this kind of tragedy would happen every day, and he couldn't control it, and he didn't want to take care of it.

He was just curious, "Viscount Sean killed your whole family for this thing?" ”

"Yes." Erica wiped away a handful of tears, "At first, I didn't know. It was they who made me hand over my grandfather's notes while they were chasing us. That's when I thought of this package. I opened it and looked at it, and it was indeed a notebook, but I couldn't open it. ”

"Can't open it?"

Chen Yi's heart moved, and he opened the package, and inside was a book with a gray cover, which felt like it was made of some kind of animal skin.

On the cover, there are several zigzag texts.

He tried to open the book, but it seemed to run into some kind of obstacle, and he tried several times, but he couldn't open it.

"Sure enough......"

He had some guesses in his mind, and instead of trying again, he asked, "Who is your grandfather?" ”

"My grandfather was a well-known scholar in Crescent City, and many of them had been his students, including those from the Sean family." There was some pride in Erica's tone.

Chen Yi asked again, "Who did your grandfather ask you to give this note to?" ”

"There was a scholar named Amos in Port Uk, and my grandfather asked me to be his student after I asked him to give it to him." Erica said, gritting her teeth, "But now that Uncle Victor is dead, I can't go to Uk Harbor alone." So, I'm going to hand over this notebook to you, my lord. ”

"Oh?"

Chen Yi glanced at her with some surprise, this little girl is very smart, and asked her, "So, what do you want from me?" ”

Erica said, "I want you to help me kill Viscount Sean." ”

"No, change it."

Chen Yi didn't think about it, so he refused. Viscount Sean is mysterious, definitely not a simple character, and he doesn't want to take this risk for the sake of a notebook.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Erica's face, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Then, please teach me the swordsmanship you used just now." ”

Chen Yi's brows furrowed slightly, this is indeed a very smart girl, she actually took a fancy to the Thunderbolt Slash, she wanted to learn this powerful swordsmanship, most likely because she wanted to take revenge in person.

However, teaching her takes time and energy, and with a person around her, many things will be inconvenient.

He hesitated for a moment, then made a decision in his heart, "I can promise you." ”

A look of surprise appeared on Erica's face, and she listened to him continue, "However, I can only teach you for half a year at most. In this half a year, I will teach you all the swordsmanship I know. And, before leaving, I'll leave behind enough oil for you to become a full-fledged knight. ”

After Chen Yi finished speaking, he waited for her to decide.

Erica's face changed for a moment, and after a few seconds, she made a decision, "I agree, teacher." ”

"You're a smart girl." Chen Yi smiled slightly, very satisfied with her decision.

In fact, she is a little girl who has no power to protect herself, and she has no choice at all. In such a wilderness, she couldn't even save her own life, let alone keep this notebook.

He asked, "Do you know how to ride a horse?" ”

"A little."

"Let's go, then."

…………

Chen Yi only took four horses and released the rest. There was an extra burden around me, and I had to spend some more time on the road.

Seven days later, they finally arrived at Port Uk.

Chen Yi looked at the tall city wall, and finally had some shadows of the big city. Port Uk is the second largest city in the kingdom, with a population of over 100,000, second only to the royal capital. In the Middle Ages, a city of this size could already be considered a large city.

When they entered the city, the city guards only collected eight copper coins, two men and four horses. They didn't even ask for their identification.

"No wonder this port has grown to such a prosperous level, and the taxes are so much lower than elsewhere. The lords of this city are not only smart, but also very powerful. ”

Chen Yi had such a thought in his heart, took Erica and went to find a place to stay first.

As a prosperous commercial city, there are many hotels here, but in Chen Yi's opinion, the conditions of the hotels here are too poor, dirty and messy, and they are not suitable for people to live in at all.

So, the next day, he went to a well-informed local landlord to ask if there were any houses for sale in the city.

Two days later, Chen Yi took Erica to an independent courtyard in the north of the city, "From now on, we will live here." ”

"Teacher, what do you mean?" Erica was surprised.

Chen Yi said, "That's right, I've already bought this place." When the half-year period is over, I will hand over the deed to you, and you can make this your home. ”

Erica's mouth opened, looking a little incredulous, and then she reacted and said gratefully, "Thank you, teacher." ”

"You deserve it." Chen Yi waved her hand and asked her to clean up the room.

It's a large yard, with a total of thousands of square meters in front and back, plus two houses. Although the location is relatively remote, the price is not low, and it cost a few hundred gold coins.

Since discovering the huge difference in the exchange rate of gold and silver between the two worlds, money is just a number to him. He paid directly with silver coins.

At night, in an empty room, Chen Yi sat on a chair and took out the gray notebook.

Since he got this notebook, he has been either in the wilderness or in a hotel with a mixture of dragons and snakes, which has been inconvenient. Now that I finally have my own house, I can try to open this notebook.

What's written inside?

He reached out and went to open the note, and suddenly, a voice appeared in his head that stopped him, "Don't open it, don't open it......"

He concentrated, dismissing the voice, and finally, his hand touched the cover of the note and lifted it.

The voice in my head stopped abruptly.
