Section 266: Improvisation
"Yes. β
After Delvik's final test and approval, the soldiers who left the city checkpoint let the two people in front of them go over, and let the queue come up behind, and the long line moved forward a little. As the chief inspector on this line, Delvik took a break for a while, his eyes were a little dazed as he looked at the long flow of people in the city.
Everything happened so unexpectedly.
In his original idea, he has now begun to work on his own plan, step by step to lure the heir of the Richardson family into his trap, and begin to force the secret of the mysterious alchemy inherited from the era of the Magic Kingdom, but the truth is that instead of forcing the opportunity of the mysterious alchemy, he has also messed up his own life.
First, he can't go back to his home.
On the day after the Battle of the Forbidden Spells, his home was reduced to a tourist attraction, and the attribute of "the place where the Sage once lived" caused the now extremely fanatical believers in this art city to frantically pour into worship, not to mention that he could not squeeze in, even if he could, he could not live there......
I heard that even the toilet on the first floor of his house is crowded with people all the time, how can you live in such a place?
Second, he was repeatedly interrogated during this period.
Norman was the guest performer of the day and the conductor of the Little Chrysanthemum Art Troupe, so his traces were not difficult to investigate, and it was easy to find out all his tracks afterwards.
According to the people of the Little Chrysanthemum Art Troupe, they met Norman on the road, and because they felt the charm of the Sage's personality, they agreed that the Sage would go on the road with them, which is nothing to doubt, it is normal and logical: the Sage came to Holke after the disappearance of Franciscan, and met the group of people from the Little Chrysanthemum Art Troupe. And the confession of everyone in the Little Chrysanthemum Art Troupe was unanimous, saying that the dragon and Norman were traveling together at that time, and in the eyes of those who knew the inside story, their confession was more credible.
In the propaganda of the Father's Cult, Norman "returned to heaven" after the forbidden curse battle of 10,000 people, but the few people who really knew the inside story knew that Norman only disappeared during the subsequent attack of the dragon, and if this incident did not really happen, it is impossible for these people in the Little Chrysanthemum Art Troupe to make up the statement that Norman and the dragon were together.
And from the confessions of the people of the Little Chrysanthemum Art Troupe, the people of the Father God Sect also deduced the traces of the Sage after his disappearance.
Obviously, this Sage Lord not only has strong mana, but also has an invincible personality, which has influenced this dragon clan, so the dragon clan, which has always been ferocious and inhuman, did not kill this new star of the Father God Sect, but walked with him.
"The Sage is above!"
After judging this, several high-ranking people present at the time of the Father's Church could not help but mutter, and Stanley, who was also present and wanted to put Norman to death, could not help but admire it.
As the biggest enemy of the dragon clan, a new generation of iconic figures of the Father's God Cult, and also prevented the dragon clan from assassinating the saint, ruining the dragon's big business, and as a result, he fell into the hands of the other party not only was not killed, but became friends with the dragon clan as a human being.
Next, they learned a very important news from the mouth of the little chrysanthemum art troupe, that is, as soon as Norman arrived in Jebel Danner, he immediately entered the city and lived in a human house, and never returned to the camp where the art troupe was stationed outside the city.
After the news was inquired, the people in charge of the inquiry at that time were all in good spirits.
Based on their expertise, it is not difficult to judge that this human being has a lot to do with the Sage Lord!
And this person is naturally Delvik, and because of this, he has been constantly interrogated by a group of people in the past few days, but fortunately, the other party did not do anything to him in the situation that he may have a great relationship with the Sage, otherwise he would not have had a good time this day, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune.
In fact, it is good to have a home that cannot be returned and constantly interrogated, but the most unbearable thing in Delvik these days is actually the third point.
That was the torment and torment of his own heart.
Before the forbidden spell battle that day, Delvik had planned to use some ruthless means to torture the alchemy secrets of the Richardson family out of Norman's mouth, but he was attacked by a mental storm that day.
In the midst of the mental storm, Delvik, like everyone else, was subjected to deep interrogation, and like everyone else, was redeemed and forgiven by Norman.
This made Delvik like everyone else full of reverence and gratitude for Norman from the bottom of his heart, but he did have extremely vicious thoughts about this Sage before, so his heart was extremely entangled and painful, and the war between good and evil made his heart more and more self-reproachful, more and more painful, and he couldn't say all thisβhe couldn't tell those people the bad thoughts he had for the Sage in his heart, right? After all, not everyone was as generous and loving as the Sage.
Under such internal and external torment, Delvik has been in great pain these days, and his spirit is not very good, and he will be in a trance from time to time.
In such a situation, a horse-drawn carriage was lined up at this level.
It was Norman and his party.
"Open the carriage door!"
A soldier not far from Delvik shouted to the old man sitting on the front panel of the carriage, but Chen Qinghe sat motionless on the front panel of the carriage, as if he had not heard it.
The soldier shouted again, but Chen Qinghe still didn't move.
The atmosphere became a little more subtle.
A few pedestrians behind poked their heads and looked here, and several soldiers around them also focused their attention and stared at these people, one soldier may be a new soldier, and he unconsciously pressed his hand to the hilt of the sword on his waist in a moment of nervousness!
Not good!
Norman's heart jumped when he saw this.
Chen Qinghe had another seizure.
Norman didn't have much research on potions, so he didn't know what kind of potion Cenarius' tears were, but over the course of a few days, he had some understanding of the potion's properties: in addition to preventing the two dragons from turning back into their bodies, Cenarius' tears would intermittently attack in their bodies.
According to Chen Qinghe, whenever this potion occurs, not only will their mana be greatly disturbed and suppressed, but also all parts of their bodies will also have great pain from the inside out, the kind that makes people unable to gather their mental power and delirium. It was also because of the characteristics of Cenarius's tears that Chen Qinghe was chased by those people like a lost dog.
And it's not a coincidence, Chen Qinghe now seems to have another seizure.
What to do, but don't let these people come up to check carefully, otherwise I'm afraid it will be easy to expose......
In a hurry, Norman suddenly shouted at Ji Ruoxi: "Why don't you hurry up and take away your father, who should have died a long time ago! Didn't you hear these adults asking him to get out of the way? He is old and his ears are not good, are you also old and have bad ears? Do you want me to do this......
Norman didn't expect Ji Ruoxi to be able to cooperate with his sudden performance, he took a step forward while scolding, stretched out his hands, and picked up Chen Qinghe's disguised old man from the front panel of the car like a chicken, and roughly put it on the ground to the side, and then regardless of whether he threw the old man down, he hurriedly rushed up and opened the carriage door, and finally put on a flattering smile on his face as if he had changed his face to the few soldiers in front of him, and said in a continuous voice: " Adults, this old guy's ears are not very good, you know, people are like this when they are old, they are useless, living is a waste of food, you must not be angry......"
Norman smirked flatteringly, trembling slightly, and the two pieces of fake flesh on his cheeks trembled with him, bringing to life a vulgar market shrew.
Norman's move made the people around him frown even deeper, and although the soldiers were also frowning at Norman's action, they were not nervous, and the recruit who was so nervous that he pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword also took his hand off again and looked at the carriage with the rest of his colleagues.
Pirno also heard the movement outside in the carriage, but Chen Qinghe blocked the door just now, and he couldn't push it open at all, and now as soon as Norman opened the door, he immediately got out of it and jumped out of the carriage.
When they saw Pirno coming out of the carriage, and there was no one else in the carriage, the soldiers' expressions became more and more relaxed, and Delvik also woke up because of the sudden situation just now, and was slightly stunned when he saw Pirno, and then took the initiative to come over and say hello.
"Pirno?"
Pirno looked at Delvik and greeted him in response: "Good day, Delvik." β
Delvik seemed puzzled by seeing Pirno here, and asked, "Do you have something to do when you're out of town?"
Pirneau, however, shook his head and said, "No, as you can see, I have lost my residency and am about to leave Jebel Denna. β
"You lost your residency?!"
Delvik was shocked, but he looked at Pirneau, and then at the several boxes that were sturdily tied to the roof of the carriage, and was silent, and finally could only nod and sigh: "For the sake of the Sage, this year has changed too much." β
The loss of residency was not a cause for joy, and Delvik did not dwell on the subject for long, immediately moving away and asking Pirno: "These are your servants?"
As they had rehearsed before, Pirnault explained unhurriedly: "No, these poor people I met on the road, from out of town to visit the festival, and are now leaving. The old man was not in good health, so I let him sit in the car, and in return, his son was willing to drive the car for me, but I didn't have to drive the car myself......"
A while ago, Norman and Delvik mingled every day, eating and lodging together, and now that they were so close, he was really a little worried that Delvik would recognize him. However, he did not deliberately avoid Delvik's gaze because of this, but always took the initiative to look at Delvik when Pirno was talking to Delvik, and once Delvik noticed his gaze, he immediately grinned and gave a flattering "bewitching" smile.
If you want to play a role well, you have to put your whole heart into it, throw away all your ontological emotions, and Norman is doing just that.
And Ji Ruoxi is also a little savvy, and she didn't sit in the carriage so stupidly, after seeing Norman throw Chen Qinghe aside, she immediately got off the saddle, came to Chen Qinghe's side in two steps and helped him sit up.
Pirno was still chatting with Delvijk.
β...... What I didn't expect was that I could meet you here. β
Pirno had a ghost in his heart, and seeing that Delvik didn't say to let them leave, he didn't dare to speak, so he could only accompany Delvik to continue chatting, and after Delvik heard Pirno's words, he explained: "The Sage has not been seen since that day, and we suspect that it is likely that the two dragons took revenge and took advantage of the Sage's mercy to kidnap him, and may be looking for an opportunity to take the Sage out of the city." And as you know, I have been in contact with the Sage for a few days, and I was at the scene at the time, so I was asked by the Marquis to come and cooperate with the inspection, and I was determined not to let those evil dragon clan plots succeed, and vowed to find them out......"
Probably because he was constantly suffering physically and mentally during these days, and he saw people like the high-ranking members of the Father's God Cult and the unknown high-ranking nobles of the kingdom, Delvik now finally met his former acquaintances, and immediately took this opportunity to pour out some of the anguish in his heart.
But the vulgar and rude shrew kept smiling at this side was so disgusting and disgusting that Delvik couldn't help but feel disgusted every time he saw it inadvertently, so he didn't talk to Pirneau any longer, and finally cooperated with a few words such as "You are such a kind person" and "I believe I will see you here next year", and then let the people leave quickly.
Pirneau then returned to the carriage, Norman closed the door, Ji Ruoxi helped Chen Qinghe to sit back on the front board of the car, and then the three of them passed the pass and walked out.
Norman always remembered his role, and did not relax after passing the level, still complaining and cursing "her husband" from time to time, but the "Heart Sutra of Catching the Sea" was running all the time, and he devoted himself to paying attention to the movements behind him, but fortunately, until they got on the bridge across the lake, there was no movement behind them.
