The atmosphere in the tavern gradually became hot under the guidance of the narration of the person who experienced it firsthand.

The legend of the Sage Norman was obviously much more interesting than the story of the lord of the castle spending a lot of money to find a dance teacher for his daughter, so it became a new hot topic of discussion, and everyone in the tavern discussed it.

Norman was not at all interested in this matter, so he was going to talk to a few random people to see if he could get some news he wanted to know from these people, but before he was ready to talk to someone, Ji Ruoxi suddenly whispered.

"Sharia,"

Ji Ruoxi's voice was very rough and slightly hoarse, completely the voice of a middle-aged man - Norman had taught these two dragons how to make sounds that matched their identities during this time, which was not a difficult task for the two dragons who had cultivated more deeply than him in the "Funeral Heart Sutra".

"Our old father didn't seem to be very comfortable. ”

This made Norman turn his attention to Chen Qinghe.

What Ji Ruoxi said was the code word they agreed upon, which meant that Chen Qinghe had another seizure, and as Norman looked over, he saw that Chen Qinghe, who was sitting between them, now had his eyes closed, his body trembling slightly, and he looked weak, which was very consistent with his current old man's appearance.

It's not the first time they've seen this happen in recent days.

"Really, it's so disappointing, I told you not to take him out!"

Norman said this in a woman's sharp voice, full of resentment, but finally compromised: "Then let's go." While saying this, he was still gloomy and unhappy, but his heart was worried.

Carefully calculated, since the sudden incident when Jebel Danner came out of the customs, this is Chen Qinghe's fourth attack, and the situation is not very good......

And in their daily interactions, they can also clearly feel that Chen Qinghe is getting weaker and weaker day by day, and if this continues, Chen Qinghe really doesn't know if he can still hold on to the realm of the Northland.

Compared with Chen Qinghe, Ji Ruoxi is much better, since she left Jebel Danner, she has only had one seizure, according to the situation described by the two dragon clans, it should be because the poison in Chen Qinghe is relatively deep - the tears of Senarius seem to be a rare thing, Stanley They should not have too much, and the main part is used to deal with Chen Qinghe.

Pierno paid for the drink, and though he didn't say anything, Norman could easily guess their current situation from the way he looked at the money bag: they probably didn't have much money, so much so that the faithful believer, who had been in good spirits every day since he became the "Sage's Squire", looked sad at that moment.

I don't have any money......

The hotel they stayed at in Douala was the Rose Hotel in District 3 - well, yes, the border city of Douala is also very developed due to its location on the main transportation route, and the whole city is divided into five districts.

Ji Ruoxi is also a good seedling of an actor, and she clumsily served her "old father" along the way, which seemed to be like that, but as soon as they returned to the room and closed the door, she immediately changed her previous clumsiness, and gently picked up an adult man like Chen Qinghe with both hands, carefully put it on the bed, let him sit steadily, and then sat on the edge of the bed by herself, staring at him worriedly, her eyes full of sorrow, and she couldn't disperse.

Norman stood near the door and watched, his face was unwavering, but his heart was also quite anxious, but unfortunately he had not learned the relevant knowledge of Potions at all, and he could not help at all in this unfamiliar field.

The roof leak happened to rain overnight, and at this moment, Pirno, who was standing respectfully behind him, also spoke.

"Lord Norman......"

He cautiously looked up behind Norman, glanced at Norman's back, and asked, "I want to leave for a while and come back before dinner." ”

This is the rule set by Norman, in order not to be exposed, everyone's actions must be planned, try to keep the large army acting together, if there is anything personal, you need to report it first.

After hearing Pirno's words, Norman asked, "What are you going to do?"

Pirno snorted, and the next words seemed ashamed, but he finally gritted his teeth and said them.

"We're running out of money, so I'm going to see if I can sell a few paintings for some money. ”

As soon as the words came out, Pirno's cheeks turned slightly red, and he was very guilty in his heart: What kind of identity is the Sage? He actually talked about such a vulgar thing in front of the adult, with the noble character of the adult, it is just not enough, and if he knows, he will definitely be worried because of this, he is really incompetent as a squire!

Selling Paintings......

Only then did Norman remember that Pirneau was still a painter, and that there was such a way to make money.

And Pirno's words also confirmed his previous conjecture, although Pirno never mentioned it, but they really had no money, maybe they didn't even have the money for daily expenses, let alone the big heads who bought medicinal materials to buy the materials for the magic pool.

Since passing the entrance exams at Cárdenas, Norman has never been so short of money as he is now.

"Is it easy to sell?"

Norman asked casually.

He really had never touched anything in fine art, and he didn't know if the painter's paintings from Jebel Danner were good or not. If it's easy to sell, maybe he won't have to worry about money.

"There shouldn't be any problem, I left this time, bringing with me several of my hard work, which I think will sell for a good price. ”

Pirneau was right, but Norman could tell from his words that his confidence didn't seem to be very great, but he nodded anyway, "Okay, you go." ”

Leaving Jebel Danner does not mean that they are completely safe, not to mention the side of the Queen Regent, even the side of the Father, who will definitely cast a wide net to search for their whereabouts, so Norman has always maintained a disguised identity, and the small details are not sloppy, which is reflected in the specific case that they have opened two rooms - although everyone can save money by living in a bunk, but how can the artists of the art capital live in a room with these poor civilians? This is a basic logical question.

So Pirnault went to his next room to get a few paintings, and then went out.

It took a while for Pirno to leave, Chen Qinghe recovered from the state of the poisonous attack, but his whole body was already wet, and he didn't know if it was a psychological effect, Norman always felt that Chen Qinghe was more haggard and weak than before.

"Are you okay?"

After seeing Chen Qinghe come to his senses, Norman asked.

He had asked like this after every seizure before, and Chen Qinghe always said "okay" every time, but this time Chen Qinghe's answer was beyond the expectations of the two people on the scene.

"I don't know. ”

Chen Qinghe said softly, his voice was quite erratic.

Norman and Ji Ruoxi were both stunned, and before they could react, Chen Qinghe looked at Ji Ruoxi, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, and suddenly said, "I seem to have seen your father just now." ”

These words made Norman stunned again.

Didn't Chen Qinghe say that Ji Ruoxi's father had been killed by Adrian?

Ji Ruoxi was stunned at first, then his eyes tightened, and the fear in his eyes spread, which was easy to see from Norman's perspective.

What's wrong with her? Is there any code language in Chen Qinghe's words that he doesn't understand?

And next, Chen Qinghe's words answered his doubts.

"He stood in the dragon's tomb and shook his wings at me, telling me not to go over. ”

Dragon's Tomb ......

It's not a good term to hear.

When Ji Ruoxi heard this, he shook his head suddenly, closed his eyes, and said loudly: "No!"

Chen Qinghe looked at her with pity, and knew that any persuasion he had given her now would be ineffective, so he didn't speak, so he could only let her be quiet first.

Then Chen Qinghe turned his head and saw Norman with a puzzled face, so he explained: "After every dragon dies, no matter where they die, their souls will return to the dragon tomb. At the same time, the dragons also have an innate instinct, that is, before they die, they can foresee their own death in the dark, this feeling is very accurate, it is said that we have time to fly back to the dragon tomb to meet our death, so that our body and soul can be one. ”

Now Norman understood.

As soon as Chen Qinghe's words came out, it was tantamount to shattering Ji Ruoxi's last hope that her father was not dead, and it also showed that Chen Qinghe was about to die.

During this time together, Norman knew that the relationship between the two dragons was not ordinary, and according to human terms, the two were equivalent to uncles and nieces. All of a sudden, first the news of her father's death was confirmed, and then her uncle's death was coming, no wonder this little girl from the dragon clan couldn't accept it.

"Norman,"

After Chen Qinghe finished explaining, he stared at Norman's eyes and called him by name, and said with a serious expression: "I didn't kill you in the first place, so you can live until now, and it is also because I taught you the "Funeral Heart Sutra", so that you can deal with the next situations, so that you didn't die in Jebel Danner, what I said is not wrong, right?"

Norman nodded, "That's right. ”

Chen Qinghe continued: "Well, according to what our dragon clan says, there is kindness to repay kindness, and there is revenge, and you owe me two lives. You saved me once in Jebel Danner, which is considered to be a life return, and then I hope that you can escort her to the Northland Realm smoothly, which can be regarded as a love for my other life. ”

Chen Qinghe has always been a quiet and elegant existence in the eyes of Norman, which is most in line with the image of the "worldly master" that Lancelot often tells him, it is unimaginable for this kind of thing to happen to Chen Qinghe, but Chen Qinghe has done it now, which shows how desperate this master is now, and how heavy his concern for Ji Ruoxi is, I would rather not have my own image and keep her safe.

Norman just looked at Chen Qinghe like this and didn't nod for a long time.

He couldn't quite understand Chen Qinghe's thoughts, if he was from Chen Qinghe's point of view, he would be dying, and he would definitely do everything to save his life. Even if the consequence of their identities being exposed is likely to be that they didn't have time to find all the materials to save Chen Qinghe, they were discovered by those potential enemies, and the final result was death, but Norman still wanted to fight.

This is what Norman will do, even if he will drag everyone into the water, he will not be willing to die, and he will not face his own death calmly like Chen Qinghe, and he is still concerned about another life at this juncture.

For an egoist like him, he really doesn't understand the psychology of being willing to do nothing and silently meet death for the hope of others' survival.

Norman didn't agree right away, and neither did Ji Ruoxi.

After shaking her head for a long time, the little dragon girl suddenly stood up and walked in the direction of the window. Fortunately, Norman reacted quickly, and immediately stepped behind her, with both hands out, grabbing the shoulders with one hand and pinching the waist with the other, and pressed the little girl to the ground at once.

"What are you going to do!"

Norman roared under his breath.

He saw some ominous signs from Ji Ruoxi's abnormal behavior just now.

"Let go of me, I'm going to find those materials!"

Well, as Norman expected, this guy is crazy - judging from her tone and actions, it is obvious that her "finding" materials are not obediently bought like Norman, but to adopt a way of forcing others to sell to her without charging money, commonly known as robbery.

You're going to expose us all!

Norman wanted to yell at her like this, but judging from Ji Ruoxi's current state, this little dragon girl was likely to respond to him with a sentence of "I don't care!", so he simply stopped yelling, and directly moved his right hand away from her waist, forming a hand knife that was also lightning fast and slashed at a part under Ji Ruoxi's head.

The position taught by the Knights Templar was indeed very useful, and it made the little dragon girl faint and fall to the ground without moving.

It is also thanks to the tears of Cenarius that greatly limited the physical qualities of these two dragon clans, otherwise, a hand knife from a human who has not cultivated the "Funeral Sun Heart Sutra" for too long may not be able to make Ji Ruoxi faint obediently.

The actions of these two dragons made Norman incomprehensible: Chen Qinghe was willing to die silently for Ji Ruoxi's safety, and Ji Ruoxi did not hesitate to expose himself in order to save Chen Qinghe.

"I know you'll say yes, your actions have made your choice clear. ”

Chen Qinghe saw the scene in front of him, and did not change color, but said: "Through this period of getting along, I know what kind of person you are, my proposal is in line with your interests, you don't have to promise me, I know your choice." Don't worry, you just escort her back like this, and I promise you that everything you want will be achieved. ”

"Sending orphans for thousands of miles is a righteous act admired by all of us in the dragon clan, as long as you do all this, you will definitely be able to achieve what you want, come and go freely in the Northland, and see everything you want to see. ”

Norman looked at Chen Qinghe and was silent for a long time.
