Chapter Twenty-Three: Thetis Gets Angry

Because Ikaon was a little hunchbacked, and Phoenix was slightly taller, he didn't even see Su Muran, who was blocked by Phoenix, when he looked up.

Phoenix ran to Icaon to support him, and asked with some uncertainty, "What did you just say?" Because Phoenix was running so fast, he didn't hear what Icaon shouted to him for a while.

"Did I say you saw Achilles?" said Ikaon, hastily repeated.

Phoenix was stunned for a moment, wasn't Achilles on horseback?

"The little boy is right away. Phoenix glanced back at the horse, and was immediately anxious. Because he saw that the horse was empty, Achilles did not know where to go.

"I'm here!" Su Muran waved at the two. He jumped off his horse from the moment Phoenix ran down the hill, after all, he really couldn't sit safely in front of an old man.

When Phoenix saw Su Muran standing on the hillside waving to them, he immediately panicked, he thought that Su Muran had fallen off the horse, and hurriedly didn't care about Ikaon turning around and running towards the hillside.

"Uncle Phoenix, I'm fine! Su Muran knew that he had misunderstood as soon as he saw Phoenix's nervous expression, and hurriedly waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

Phoenix, who had just run two steps, took a closer look at Su Muran's expression, seeing that he didn't look like he was lying, and stopped and went back to help Ikaon.

Phoenix helped Ikaon to the hillside, hurriedly came over to check on Su Muran's situation, and was relieved when he found that he was really fine. After all, Madame Thetis had just handed over the little boy to his care, and if something happened at this moment, then he would have to bear it.

"Little boy, it's great that you're okay. Icaon will be respectful to Su Muran again.

Su Muran looked at Ikaon's red face and uncontrollable sweat, and suddenly felt very embarrassed, because of his own fault to let an old man suffer like this.

Su Muran bowed to Ekaeon and said sincerely, "I'm sorry for worrying you, Grandpa Ikaon." ”

Ikaon hurriedly waved his hand, indicating that it didn't matter. "Since you're all right, I'll go back first, and no one is watching the boat by the river. ”

"This ......" Su Muran was suddenly ashamed and didn't know what to say. I wanted to keep Ikaon to rest for a while, but the old man was very reasonable, the boat was still by the river, and it was impossible to leave it alone. After thinking about it, Su Muran still turned his attention to Phoenix for help.

Phoenix immediately understood what he meant, and he didn't want Ikaon to be so tired, so he quickly persuaded: "Father, who among the villagers by the river doesn't know that the boat is yours? ”

"Yes, yes, Uncle Phoenix is right, don't worry. Su Muran hurriedly helped.

"I'm not worried about this, I'm afraid that if there is a wild boar or something......"

"It's okay, father. In case the ship is damaged, I'll build one for you, and we won't make money from that. ”

"Yes, Grandpa Ikaon, I'll help Uncle Phoenix if I need to build a ship. ”

With that all said and done, Ikaon nodded and agreed to stay, "Okay then, then I'll go back later." I could see that Ikaon was still a little reluctant.

Su Muran looked at Ikaon's tired face, thought for a while and asked, "Grandpa Ikaon, do you know how to ride a horse?" ”

"Little boy, I can only ride a carriage, not a horse. Ikaon looked at Su Muran kindly and said a little apologetically. He didn't deliberately refuse Su Muran's kindness, but he really didn't know how to ride a horse.

Although there were many horses in this era, most of them were war horses used to pull chariots, and few people fought directly on horseback. Those who can ride horses are usually young ladies from wealthy families, and Ikaon is obviously not among them. The shepherds here generally don't know how to ride horses, but of course the Milmidon Ranch is a special case. Because the pasture is too big, you can't take care of the sheep if you don't know how to ride a horse.

Phoenix led the horse with one hand and Ikaon with the other, and Su Muran followed Ikaon. After the false alarm just now, Phoenix didn't dare to let Su Muran continue to ride, which was also in line with Su Muran's intentions, after all, Ikaon was so tired and walking, he would definitely feel uneasy in his conscience when he sat again.

Since Icaon is here, it is obviously inappropriate to continue to wander around and look at the scenery at this time, after thinking about it, Su Muran said to Phoenix: "Uncle Phoenix, since Grandpa Ikaon is here, let's go find my mother." ”

But as soon as he had finished speaking, he realized that he had made a great mistake, and that Thetis had not asked him why he had come, and that she must have thought that Icaon had agreed to let him come to the pasture, and that if she had seen Icaon now, Theseis's head would have known at once that he had stolen away. Embarrassing, what can I do?

Before he thought of a way, Icaon automatically relieved him, and when he heard that he was going to find Thetis, Icaon hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I have nothing to do, how can I disturb Lady Thetis?"

Uncle, you are really understanding, you have won my heart, and you have saved people from fire and water. Su Muran looked at Ikaon with tears in his eyes, what a good man!

"It's okay, how can you bother......" Su Muran pretended to be fine, while thinking about what reason to find to make Ikaon more determined to refuse to see These.

Before he could think about it, Phoenix spoke, "Yes, father. Since Madame Thetis is here, why should we go and say hello, and it would be rude for us to go late. ”

Obviously impressed by Phoenix's last words, Icaon hesitated a little before agreeing, "Okay then. ”

"Great, Grandpa Ikaon, I just want to see my mom too. Su Muran pretended to be smiling, but his heart was dripping blood. He didn't want to see Thetis now, in case Thetis got angry, and the new and old accounts were counted together, wouldn't it be to go to heaven and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun?

Strange, why do I use the word again? Su Muran grabbed his hair, when did he go to heaven? It seems to ...... There was an indescribable sense of familiarity, but Su Muran really couldn't remember it.

Distracted for a while, Su Muran also forgot to think about Thetis, and it wasn't until he walked to the warehouse that he remembered that Thetisi was still here!

The warehouse was a large wooden room, covered with thick hay, with an open door, and from time to time women would come and go with wool and empty bags. Phoenix walked up to the door and checked Theses' position.

"Lady Thetis, my father Icaon has come to visit you. ”

Thetis was directing the women to carry out the wool that had been sheared before, when she suddenly heard Phoenix outside saying that Icaon was coming to visit, and I couldn't help but wonder a little, "Why did Icaon come to the ranch?"

Su Muran's hippie smiling face suddenly appeared in Theses' mind, and she immediately figured it out, and couldn't help but bite her silver teeth, "This stinky boy, you're causing me trouble again!"

patted her cheeks, changed into her usual gentleness and kindness, and walked out with a smile.

"Old man, why did you come to the ranch?"

Seeing Thetis come out, Ikaon hurriedly saluted, thought for a while and said, "Lady Thetis, I haven't seen Phoenix for too long, and I miss him a little, so come and see." ”

Wow! Old man, you are really good at talking, give you 32 likes! Su Muran praised Ikaon for his wit in his heart.

"Achilles can't be causing you trouble, is it?" asked Thetis with a smile on her face, as if she were a family friend.

"How could it be? The little boy is so well-behaved, I am very happy to be with him. Ikaon's answer still seemed to be watertight in Su Muran's opinion.

Su Muran nodded hurriedly, pretending to be cute to prove that he was harmless to humans and animals.

If only three months ago Theses had believed him, but now, hum! Theses sneered inwardly, but still pretended to be very enthusiastic on her face.

"It's rare for you to come here, so let's give Phoenix a vacation this afternoon so that he can keep you company. ”

Phoenix seemed pleased, and immediately responded, "Thank you so much, Lady Thetis, you are so kind." ”

"In that case, then take your father to rest, the old man seems to be a little tired. Thetis "kindly" reminded Phoenix.

Icaon was stunned for a moment, knowing at once what Thetis was thinking from his life experience, but when he was about to refuse, he heard his son speak.

"Then we'll go first, thank you again, Lady Thetis. Phoenix bowed to Thetis.

I've never seen you speak so fast!!

Ikaon glanced at Su Muran apologetically, he thought of Su Muran when Thetis asked him why he came to the ranch just now, so he shirked and said that he came to see Phoenix. But then Thetis didn't ask himself why he didn't come with Achilles, but asked Achilles if he was causing trouble for himself, and he knew that Thetis didn't believe what he said at all.

Su Muran saw that Phoenix was about to leave with Ikaon in his arms, and hurriedly followed, although he didn't know if his mother had seen it, but now he really didn't want to know.

"Achilles, don't disturb Uncle Phoenix and Grandpa Ikaon, come to Mommy. As soon as he took two steps, Su Muran heard a voice that he didn't want to hear.

Standing still, Su Muran turned his body stiffly and smiled at Thetis: "Mom, Grandpa Ikaon said that he would tell me a story." ”

"Oh, yes, Lady Thetis. Ikaon hurriedly said, "The little boy likes to listen to my stories. ”

"You're so tired, how can you let Achilles annoy you again. Thetis walked up to Su Muran and put her hand on his shoulder, "It's the same when I tell him stories." ”

Titis looked down at Su Muran, with a hint of danger in her eyes.

"You say yes, Achilles?"
