Chapter 155: The First Encounter

Richard lay on his back on the grass, looking at the gloomy sky overhead, just as he was feeling at this moment. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The dripping raindrops had turned into a misty drizzle, and he let them hit his face, trying to wash away the decadence on his body, but there were tears on his cheeks mixed with the raindrops.

I don't know why? Richard burst into tears. Is it because of misunderstanding? Because of separation? Because we can never see each other again? Or will you and I become enemies when we meet?

"Boom"...... A winter thunder exploded in the sky, echoing in my ears.

Richard wiped his face from the rain and tears, he sat up, looked at the north stupidly, and finally everything turned into a helpless sigh, just wishing her to be free from the demonic encirclement.

"Yo, little Richard, are you done with your memories?" In this quiet moment, a very discordant voice suddenly appeared, interrupting Richard, who was thinking in the rain. This is, of course, our Lord Barbossa.

Richard glanced at Barbossa and ignored him. He took out the gold coin that his father had left for him from the space leather bag and hung it around his neck, and then took out a beast bag from it and continued to hang it around his neck.

Richard began to take off his clothes and bask in the winter rain.

"Boom"...... Another winter thunder rang out.

Richard stood under a tree, wiping his body with a handkerchief. Next, start wearing the knight's armor.

And Barbossa, the parrot, stood in the tree and watched him the whole time, just looking at him, and there was no more communication between one man and one bird.

Put on the knight's armor all over his body, take out a beast bag, release Xiaobai from it, stroke Xiaobai's mane, close his eyes and hold Xiaobai's head and stand in place for a long time.

Until......

Until, not far away, there was a "click" sound of horses' hooves.

As the sound of horses' hooves sounded from far and near, the rain began to subside, but the sky became even more gloomy.

"Dada" ......

The sound of horses' hooves seemed to ring in his ears, and Richard was still holding Xiaobai's head, with his eyes closed and wondering what he was thinking?

Barbossa the parrot didn't want to pay attention to the passerby, but the sound of the horse's hooves seemed to stop beside him. So, Barbossa the parrot turned his head, and then he froze and began to tremble......

For a long time, after a long time......

Richard opened his eyes, and at the same time Xiaobai also opened his eyes, and it was as if they had fallen asleep together and entered a dream together. Richard continued to stroke Xiaobai, and Xiaobai also took advantage of Richard.

Suddenly, Xiaobai looked at the passerby next to him, and then his entire horse froze......

Feeling the same as Xiaobai, Richard stopped his movements and turned his head to look. A man, a man wrapped in a black robe. He buried his head, his head covered by a black hood, and he couldn't see anything in the dark shadow. The black robe he wore was large and long, covering his whole body, not even a finger was exposed.

He rode on a black horse, a horse that was shiny black. But the horse's eyes rolled with a faint blue light, looking strange and abnormal, and it was this eye that frightened Xiaobai.

Richard's eyes moved down to see Barbossa, huddled in a ball with his wings folded.

Richard's eyes moved up again to look at the man in black robes and riding a black horse. He was dangerous, that was Richard's first reaction.

Just as Richard was about to make some moves, the black-robed man raised his hand and lifted the black hood off his head. His face was revealed.

A bald ...... To be precise, he didn't have a single hair on his face. No hair, no eyebrows, no beard...... It's weird to look at.

Look at his face again. Ordinary, ordinary, and even intimate. It's like a next-door neighbor, every day when you come home in the morning and evening, you will look at him and nod his head. This ordinary face made Richard feel very familiar, very familiar, but Richard couldn't remember where he had seen it......

There was no doubt that the hairless man was a man, and he looked at Richard, and Richard looked at him. Then he smiled at Richard, and with that smile. The already thin rain stopped completely, and the clouds in the sky began to disperse.

"Hello. He said to Richard.

"You...... Hello. Richard replied. Listening to his voice, Richard didn't feel any emotion or affection, hearing it or not hearing it seemed to be the same thing.

"Do you know how to get around the Earl of Williams?" he asked again.

"...... north from here," Richard replied subconsciously, and then he immediately raised his voice and said, "The Earl of Williams is now under a demonic invasion, you better not go to ......"

"Thank you. He nodded to Richard, and with a flick of the reins, the black horse's hooves moved toward the north, not seeming to heed what Richard had said at the end.

"Hey...... There are too many demons there, and there are legendary-level ......" Richard shouted at his back as he looked at the dark shadow that was getting farther and farther away.

And he was wearing a black hood again.

Richard sighed helplessly, and suddenly a voice came from afar, just into his ears: "Someone has to do something, doesn't it?"

Richard listened to these words and looked at the black shadow that disappeared around the corner of the woods, and was in awe. After a long time, Richard turned to look at Barbossa, who was still in a ball, and asked, "Do you know who he is?"

Strangely, Barbossa, who usually talks a lot, shook his bird's head violently at this time, and finally buried his head in his wings. Barbossa was frightened, for the black-robed man, who was completely black, looked at him twice. One glance was the first glance at Barbossa when he turned his head, and the other glance was at Barbossa when he finally left.

Barbossa knew who he was, and as a demon who was good at reading people's hearts, he also knew what that was in his eyes. Although the black-robed man was godless in his eyes, or indifferent. But Barbossa got it. So he began to get scared, he began to feel frightened, he began to regret some of his unscrupulousness. Because the will of the black-robed man is the will of "that person".

Barbossa the parrot behaved strangely, which made Richard puzzled, and he looked at the place where the black robe had disappeared for a long time, speechless.

"Turns out you, parrot, are scared too. A voice suddenly appeared, interrupting Richard's trances and Barbossa's fear.

Barbossa the parrot poked his head out of his wings and saw his most hated adversary for hundreds of thousands of years. Richard also saw the small figure that appeared, and was a little surprised, how could he come here?

"Why, little Richard, don't you welcome me?" said Edward the white cat, pacing toward Richard and Barbossa.
