CHAPTER XIV
At this time, there was a noise outside. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
An old man in silver armor rushed in, "Bold Witch, dare to invade the town I am guarding in broad daylight, is it true that I, the Knight of Light, no longer exists?" Look at the moves! ”
The old man turned into a ray of light and rushed straight towards Zhou Rui and Ellie, looking at the posture, it seemed that he was going to cut the two of them in two.
Ellie seemed to be a little frightened, but fortunately, Zhou Rui opened the protective shield in time at the critical moment and blocked the old man's knife.
"Hey, old man, are you sick, we have a good meal here, and we don't get in the way, why do you shout at us as soon as you come up?" Zhou Rui said.
At this time, Ellie's face was embarrassed, and she pulled Zhou Rui's clothes, as if she wanted to escape.
"Hmph, the witch is the source of calamity, what's wrong with me killing her. Little brother, don't think that I can't do anything about you if you master one or two special spells, if it weren't for my mercy, you would have been broken in two. If you still have a human conscience, don't have anything to do with these evil creatures of darkness. ”
Zhou Rui snorted coldly, "I didn't see any mercy on your part, if I hadn't blocked your sword, it would have been broken in two by now." I'll ask you, have you ever seen Ellie hurt people? ”
"It is a well-known thing that witches bring disaster and destruction......"
"Haven't you seen it yet?" Zhou Rui interrupted him unceremoniously.
"It's a well-known thing that witches bring disaster and destruction if they haven't seen it. Just because you don't hurt people today doesn't mean you won't hurt people tomorrow. I'm just nagging the catastrophe in the bud, what's wrong! Do you think so? The old man of the Knight of Light asked the crowd of onlookers outside.
"Yes, yes, what the knight said is so right!"
"Yes, yes, yes, worthy of being a knight!" The crowd of onlookers nodded in agreement.
"According to your reasoning, I suspect that you will rape this beautiful proprietress tomorrow, can I cut you directly, lest you be blamed?" Zhou Rui pointed to the proprietress next to him, who was about more than two hundred pounds, and said.
The proprietress was startled when she heard this, and she blinked at the old man, but there was a hint of expectation in her eyes.
The old man was startled, "Phew, even if I want to force and rape, I won't force or rape her." ”
"Does that mean you're going to be strong and rape? Who are you targeting? Is it her, she, or her? Zhou Rui deliberately pointed to the beautiful young women in the crowd. They turned pale with fright, and went straight back.
"Bah, when did I say I was going to force and rape them! I, the Knight of Light, Edward, have always believed in the God of Light, and I sit upright, and the villagers here see it in the eyes, how can I be a thief! ”
The crowd of onlookers nodded.
"That's not necessarily, you don't know your heart." Zhou Rui is proficient in psychology, and he also has a hand in seeing people, and he took it to heart as soon as his eyes rolled: "Old man, I see that your boss is not small, and you must not have a wife." ”
"This ...... How do you know? ”
"You said that you are an old bachelor, usually lonely and lonely, even if you secretly do something unsightly at night, isn't it normal? Isn't that right? Zhou Rui said to the crowd of onlookers.
"Yes, yes, it seems that I have never seen the knight go to find a woman, is it really secretly ...... at night?"
For a while, people were talking about it, and all kinds of gossip began to ferment.
"You fart! How could I do something unseemly? The old man's face was red and his neck was thick.
"You see your face is so red, didn't I say it? It's useless for you to tell me, do you think everyone believes you? Zhou Rui pointed with his chin at the crowd who were discussing.
"Hey, you won't really believe him, I really didn't do anything to be sorry for your wife!" The old man tried hard to defend himself, but the more he described it, the darker and darker it became, the people around him believed Zhou Rui's words more, and they wanted to ask for an explanation around the old man.
Taking advantage of this gap, Zhou Rui easily took Ellie away.
"You're amazing!" Along the way, Ellie looked at Zhou Rui with adoring eyes, which made him very embarrassed.
"Now, this is called crowd gold, accumulating and destroying bones." Zhou Rui said.
"All mouths are golden, and they are ruined? What do you mean? Ellie asked.
"That is to say, if the masses accuse together, then hard metals like iron will melt; If slander continues, it will make it difficult for people to survive and they will be destroyed. Rumors are terrifying, for example, you, who have obviously never done anything, but you have to bear everyone's accusations and scolding, and you can only survive away from the crowd, this is the power of rumors. ”
Ellie suddenly laughed, "Actually, I don't find it difficult to survive. ”
"yes, then you're really strong." Zhou Rui praised.
Ellie shook her head, "Not because I'm strong, but because of someone like you who believes in me." ”
Zhou Rui saw her enthusiastic eyes, and was a little afraid to look at her, but began to change the topic, "Ahem...... So what, why don't we go shopping again? ”
Ellie's hat is the kind of hat commonly used by noble ladies with veils, and there is nothing peculiar about walking down the street. At Zhou Rui's suggestion, the two did not go back to the castle directly, but started shopping on the street.
Ellie has a lot of money on her, and Zhou Rui didn't want to help her save, the two hired a car, threw it in the car if they fancied something, and in the afternoon they had bought a cart full of things, which included several sets of clothes that Zhou Rui had purchased, decorations and cosmetics that Ellie liked, as well as a lot of daily necessities such as food, firewood, rice, oil, and salt.
After that, Zhou Rui and Ellie got into the carriage and returned to the castle. Neither of them could drive a carriage, so they hired a groom. At first, the groom didn't want to take the order when he heard that the two were going to the castle on the mountain, but under Zhou Rui's money offensive, he finally reluctantly agreed.
"This castle on the hill is haunted, very evil, and has not been inhabited for a long time. Don't look at it as ownerless and try to keep it for yourself, it's really dangerous there. The groom said as he drove the car.
"It's okay, I'm a mage." Zhou Rui said with a smile.
"There were also many mages who took a fancy to that place and wanted to go there to get rid of the spirits, but none of them came back, the ghosts there were really fierce, and I also saw enough. The sun won't go down to dare to go with you. Ma Fu said earnestly, as if he really couldn't bear to take the risk of Zhou Rui and them.
"I've been there for days, and I don't seem to be in any danger. Hurry up and get in the car, we won't send you out when the sun goes down. Zhou Rui said.
As the speed of the car increased, the two soon returned to the castle.
After putting the goods into the castle, Zhou Rui began to prepare his love dinner, which was used for food, housing and clothing, which made him a little embarrassed, so he wanted to repay this kind young lady with his cooking skills.
Zhou Rui made a simple four dishes and one soup, he was single when he was on earth, and he had enough time, so he practiced good cooking skills, and this meal made Ellie full of praise.
The day passed, but the rest of the night seemed extraordinarily long......
