Since both the tavern waiter and Christina agreed to help, all that had to be done now was to wait. So Xie Feng temporarily stayed at Ali's house and waited for news, while Ali went back to work. When he had nothing to do, Xie Feng took out the entire copy of "The Art of Sword Fighting". Now Xie Feng has 767 points, plus the 297 points he originally put in, it is enough to complete this book. Without hesitation, Xie Feng threw another 703 points into the book.

"The Art of Sword Fighting" is complete.

Well, Xie Feng feels very good about himself now, especially when he saw the bracket behind the proficiency of the bow and crossbow plus a hundred, Xie Feng couldn't help but kiss the Qianli Wearing Yang Ring on the middle finger of his right hand, this equipment Niu Fork doesn't explain! I don't know when I will get the next one. Thinking of this, Xie Feng simply felt that the entire Calradia Continent was already within his reach. After YY was over, Xie Feng solemnly picked up the book "The Art of Sword Fighting" and practiced it seriously.

After this practice, Ali went home in the evening.

Ali opened the door, and before he could enter, he saw a sword pointed at his head, and his eyes were only about one or two centimeters from the tip of the sword. "Ah, I'm sorry. Xie Feng put away his sword and said embarrassedly: "I practiced my sword too much, and when I heard that someone broke in, I reflexed...... Ali didn't blame Xie Feng, but said: "Is there any news?" Xie Feng shook his head.

Ali sighed and said, "I said, what can we do except wait like this?" Xie Feng continued to practice his sword and said, "What do you think, how about we compare with Christine?" Ali thought for a while and said, "Except for a single piece that you may win over her, the rest are useless in front of her." Xie Feng shook his sword and said, "That's it, then do you think there is anything we can do but she can't?" Ali sighed again and said, "But just waiting like this, I'm upset." Every day I wait, my heart becomes more anxious - I always make mistakes in today's work, and I am scolded by my boss. "Actually, I want to scold you too. Xie Feng stopped waving his sword and said, "It's not shameful to be powerless, it's a shame that since you can't do anything, you're still worrying about it." It's not that it's fruitless and there's no news, it's very optimistic now, all we lack is a little bit of waiting, can't we even wait for you - I don't understand how someone as impatient as you survived until now. Xie Feng passed on Christina's sarcastic words to Ali the day before yesterday. Ali listened to Xie Feng's accusation, and was silent for a long time, thinking for a long time. Ali finally nodded and said to Xie Feng: "I'm sorry, I'm too arrogant, I'm very sorry." I'll definitely adjust my mood as soon as possible. After speaking, he smiled reluctantly at Xie Feng. Xie Feng watched Ali finally cheer up—at least it looked like Ali was trying to cheer himself up—and finally felt a little relieved, and said to Ali: "If you still can't sleep tonight, just accompany me to practice the sword first—I'm missing an opponent." Ali nodded and said, "I'm happy to accompany you!"

After a long time, the sound of "pop, pop, pop" came from inside Ali's house.

The next day, after Xie Feng got up, there was no shadow of Ali in the house for a long time - it was estimated that he went to work again. I hope that after last night's own but said, today's Ali can adjust his mood. After a simple wash, and after breakfast, Xie Feng practiced swordsmanship in Ali's house again. Through yesterday's day of practice, Xie Feng felt that his swordsmanship had made progress again, and the swordsmanship skills recorded in "The Art of Sword Fighting" were not only easy to understand, but also concise and easy to practice - of course, it was only the first half of the book, and Xie Feng hadn't read the second half yet, and he didn't know if there would be any complicated and difficult tricks to learn. Anyway, now Xie Feng thinks that if he goes to the competitive competition again, the championship will be no problem, and he can win it easier than last time. After all, there will be no masters who will participate in this kind of ordinary competition. And if you keep practicing at this pace, you shouldn't even have much difficulty in the athletic meeting at the training ground. I hope I can find Serra soon, and after finding Serra, I can go back to the training ground to concentrate on practicing swordsmanship, and then learn tactics and the like after the competition, so that I can become a qualified captain.

Xie Feng practiced swordsmanship until noon, feeling a little hungry, and when he wanted to go out for lunch, there was a knock on the door. Ali has a key to open the door directly, so it can't be Ali outside the door. Thinking of this, Xie Feng immediately went to open the door. The door opened, and a soldier-like figure stood outside the door. The soldier respectfully asked, "Is Mr. Xie Feng here?" Xie Feng said, "I am." The soldier saluted Xie Feng and said, "Hello Mr. Xie Feng, Her Royal Highness the princess is invited." Let you go to the castle now. ”

Xie Feng's eyes suddenly brightened: "Is there finally news?" After the soldier left, Xie Feng cleaned up and headed towards the castle.

When I came to the gate of the castle, it was still the guard who guarded the door. Xie Feng couldn't help but wonder, could it be that there was just such a guard guarding the gate in the entire castle? When the guard saw Xie Feng coming, he hurriedly greeted him warmly and invited Xie Feng in.

Xie Feng stepped into the lord's hall again, and what caught his eyes was still the figure sitting behind the fire.

"Xiao Ke, I'm here. Xie Feng said. "I know, I called you in the first place. With that, Christina turned around and looked at Xie Feng, with a bewitching smile on her face. Xie Feng looked at Christina's smile and was fascinated, and came back to his senses and said, "Is there any news?" Christina said: "Yes, it's a little, but it's not too good news." Xie Feng said: "Now as long as there is news, it is good news." Christina stood up and walked slowly around the fire, saying as she went: "According to the report of the soldiers stationed at the city gates, three days ago in the evening, the owner of the 'Silent Tavern' in the west of the city took a little girl out of the city - similar to the girl you described. When Xie Feng heard this, his attention immediately focused, only to hear Christina continue: "It's a pity that after they left the city, they never came back. Until now, I haven't heard any reports of them returning to the city. Xie Feng was a little worried, Serra was taken out and never came back, where was she taken to? Is it safe now? Xie Feng asked, "Is there any other information?" Christina replied, "There are two more." One of them was when I investigated the origins of the 'Silence' tavernkeeper. He was originally a traveling merchant in the Kingdom of Virginia, named Nedim, who had been traveling throughout the continent of Calradia to do business. It wasn't until two years ago, after coming to Sugson, that he settled here and opened the 'Tavern of Silence'. In addition to opening a tavern, Nedim also deals in weapons in private, and there are rumors that he has dealings with some outlaws - he doesn't look like a serious person anyway. Xie Feng thought to himself: "Would a serious person abduct an underage girl?" And the name Nedim is so familiar...... Oh, there's a bastard named Vidim in the game, he's a regent, I wonder if there's anything to do with each other?" and then asked, "What about another piece of information?" Christina said, "Another piece of information, I don't know if it has anything to do with it - yesterday there was a report from the sentinels that there was a pair of unknown origins near Surgeson, and this team didn't seem to have malicious intentions towards Surgeson City, but they were often haunted, and they seemed to be looking for something—anyway, I had already asked someone to keep an eye on their movements." Xie Feng thought hard: "Serra, the traveling merchant of the Virginia Kingdom, the team of unknown origin...... What's the connection?"

Christina said: "So much information I have at the moment, I hope it can help you." Of course, I'll keep an eye out for more information. Xie Feng nodded and said, "Okay, thank you." If there is any news, please let me know as soon as possible. Christina nodded. Xie Feng saw that there was nothing else to do, so he took his leave.

Xie Feng walked out of the castle, and the guard guarding the door greeted Xie Feng warmly again, and even asked Xie Feng to have dinner together. After Xie Feng refused, he returned to Ali's house. After opening the door with the spare key that Ali had given him, Xie Feng saw that Ali was already sitting in the middle of the room.

"Hmm, did you get off work so early today?" Xie Feng asked, and then walked into the house. As soon as he entered the door, Xie Feng stayed where he was. For Ali was not the only one in the room—there was also Serra, who was lying asleep on her bed.

"She?" Xie Feng pointed at Serra, so surprised that he couldn't say anything else. Ali made a "quiet" gesture to Xie Feng, then stood up, walked out of the door with Xie Feng, closed the door gently, and glanced affectionately at Serra, who was sleeping before closing the door.

Xie Feng followed Ali all the way to the river, found a shade of a tree where no one was and sat down. Xie Feng also sat next to Ali, and as soon as he sat down, Xie Feng asked, "What the hell is going on?"

Ali spoke, as if he was gathering his thoughts. After a long time, he said, "Serra, she was indeed kidnapped, and she just escaped back today." Xie Feng didn't interrupt Ali and let him continue.

Ali seemed to gather his thoughts again, and said, "Three days ago, the day Serra disappeared, Serra was tricked out of the city by the owner of the 'Tavern of Silence', and then he tied her up and took her away. However, Serra showed no intention of resisting, and the tavernkeeper relented. Two days ago, when Serra had learned from the tavernkeeper that she would be meeting with a group of people the next day, Serra realized that she would have no chance if she didn't escape. So that night, while the tavern owner was asleep, Serra secretly took out the dagger he was carrying, cut the rope, and even killed the tavernkeeper, and began to flee back overnight. Because Serra knew that if the group came the next day and found that they had escaped, they would definitely come after her, so Serra chose a small path. In this way, I went into hiding and fled, and it was not until this morning that I came to the vicinity of Sugson, when I was out doing surveys, and I stumbled upon her. When she saw me, she immediately told me that someone was after her, and I had noticed since yesterday that there was an unknown procession that seemed to be looking for something, and I guessed that it was after Serra, so I sneaked into town with her from somewhere else—I was an engineer, and I knew the structure of the walls of Surgerson. Then, you're back. ”

After hearing this, Xie Feng roughly understood, but the root cause was still unclear, so he asked, "Why are they chasing Serra, and who are those teams?"

Ali sighed again and said, "Xie Feng, I can tell you, but you have to promise me two things: first, you can't tell anyone about this. Second, take Sera away, even if you take her back to your training ground, in short, you can't stay in Sugerson!"

Why?" Xie Feng asked curiously, thinking to himself, "It can't be that Serra offended someone, right?

Ali said: "Xie Feng, listen to me......" Ali lowered his voice a lot and continued: "Actually, Sierra and I are not related by blood...... She's not my brother's biological daughter......" Xie Feng frowned, but didn't show too much surprise, after all, in his own world, such things often happen. So he asked, "What does this have to do with Serra's inability to stay in Sageson? Could it be that her own parents found this and asked to take her back, but you refused?" Ali sighed and said, "If it was really Serra's biological parents who came to her, I would be more gratified." But both of Serra's parents are no longer alive. Xie Feng asked: "Then ......" Ali said: "Actually, Serra is the princess of the Virgin Kingdom and the legitimate heir of the Virginia Kingdom!"

Xie Feng's eyes widened: The rightful heir? The restorer? I clearly remember that in the game, the restorer of King Vekia was a guy named the bastard Vidim, when did he become Serra? But thinking about the fact that many things in the game world and this thing are not exactly the same, I understand. But Xie Feng still couldn't accept it right away, that barbaric girl with a ruffian face was actually the princess of the Virgin Kingdom.

"I suppose that the Kingdom of Virgia is now ruled by King Yarogerk?" Xie Feng asked as he learned the lines in the game, and then added: "Besides, how could Serra be adopted by your brother?" Ali nodded and said, "Don't worry, Xie Feng, I'll start with you." After saying that, he looked around vigilantly again, and made sure that there was still no one around, and then he spoke:

After the death of his father, his brother Berlec became regent because his son Vidim was still young. However, in order to usurp the throne, Nabelluck falsely accused Serra's mother of adultery, and declared that Vidim was not the biological son of the old king. Although most of the lords at the time did not believe this, Bellek did not stop doing it, and even sent people to assassinate the mother and son overnight. That night, no sooner had Serra been born, someone came to tell him that Berlek was going to kill people. Serra's mother was too weak to escape because she had just given birth to Serra. So he let a trusted cronie secretly escort Serra and Vidim out of the city. The cronie carried Serra on his back and pulled Vidim on his back, and fled out of the city overnight. The three of them absconded all the way, and in order to avoid the killer, the cronies had been fleeing by a remote and uninhabited path. However, while passing through a rushing river, Serra's brother Vidim accidentally fell into the river and was swept away by the flood. The cronies had no choice but to continue absconding with Serra behind his back. At that time, Berlec had already issued a national arrest warrant, and his cronies had fled the kingdom of Vigia with Serra. It wasn't until I fled to the territory of the Nord Kingdom that I met my brother and sister-in-law. Coincidentally, my sister-in-law was from McCann Village, and at that time, my sister-in-law and her mother were sick, and my sister-in-law was about to give birth, and she had to rush back to her mother's house. Who knows, on the road, my sister-in-law is about to give birth. The eldest brother didn't know how to deliver babies, so he was in a hurry, and he couldn't go to the village or the store at that time...... I was busy until midnight, but I gave birth to a dead baby. Speaking of this, Ali sighed and continued: "At that time, the eldest brother was so grief-stricken that he cried when he lay on the ground. At this time, the cronies of the Virginia Kingdom came to the eldest brother with Serra, who was so hungry that he couldn't even cry. At that time, the Nord Kingdom and the Virginia Kingdom were at war, and the eldest brother saw that the man was dressed as a Vecchian soldier, and the grief and anger made the eldest brother immediately draw his sword. However, at this time, the cronie actually knelt down, held Serra in his hand, and kept kowtowing...... As you might have guessed, the cronies told Serra's eldest brother and sister-in-law about her background, hoping that they would adopt herra. The eldest brother and sister-in-law adopted Serra, but declared that it was their own child - in fact, no one doubted it. And the cronie, after entrusting Serra to my eldest brother, immediately drew his sword and committed suicide - he felt that Vidim's death was his own responsibility, and he apologized for his death. Ali breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Originally, I didn't know about this at first, and I thought that Serra was my eldest brother's biological daughter. It wasn't until my sister-in-law entrusted me with the truth when she entrusted her to me before she died...... As for the Kingdom of Virgia, Berlek died soon after, and his son Yarogerk took over the throne as a matter of course - he naturally knew what had happened back then, and he was also worried that someone would come and snatch it back from him - so I am sure that the team of unknown origin that has recently appeared outside the city was sent by Yarogelk to capture Serra. ”
