Chapter 174: The Room in the Cave
"Then Sir Foster, come with me. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" The mage turned and walked deeper into the cave......
Rhodes followed her, and soon discovered that the cave was much more structurally complex than expected, and that the place where the queen had received her had been only a slightly larger space at the entrance, and that in addition to this "hall", there were many narrow passages that extended into the dark depths.
They walked a short distance along one of them and came to a door. This surprised Rhodes a little, according to what he had seen before, there were not many traces of human activity in this cave, this should be a temporary hiding place chosen by the Resistance Army, but the appearance of this door now does not mean that this place has long been inhabited?
"It took me a long time to get this little hole to fit in. The woman saw through his thoughts and opened her mouth to explain, reaching out and clicking on the magic lock on the door, leading him into the room.
The room, the small cave behind the door, to be exact, was illuminated by a magic lamp hanging from the ceiling. There is a faint smell wafting through the air, a subtle but not unpleasant mixture of high-end perfumes, liquor, and a woman's body odor.
Rhodes quickly began to observe the environment, the cave floor was covered with new wooden floors, and curtains were hung around the stone walls, which looked like a real room. The table in the center of the room was a mess, and in the middle of the vase were a few flowers, apparently picked that day, surrounded by bottles, cans, plates, and cutlery, and a crepe tablecloth hung crookedly from the edge of the table, stained with food sauces, and between the heaps of husks and chicken bones, a clump of peeled orange peels resembled blooming white flowers.
Next to it is the bed, supported by four beautifully carved wooden brackets, a few high heels thrown at random next to the bed, some personal things such as stockings, dresses and even panties hanging from the railing between the wooden stands, and then there is a wardrobe and a lavish dressing table...... It didn't look like the dwelling of a member of the Resistance in harsh conditions, and it was clear that a woman was using the cave.
"This is my room and you are absolutely safe here. "There's a bunch of soldiers out there who think they should kill you, and my advice is not to run around." ”
"I'm staying here tonight?" Rhodes stood at the doordoor for a moment, desperately trying to dispel the embarrassment in his heart.
"Sorry, it's a bit of a mess, I'll clean it up. Sasha picked up the personal belongings on the bed and threw them into the small cupboard, rolled up the tablecloth and held it in her hand, "Please don't have any doubts about what you see, I brought it all myself." I became a female mage with the support of my parents and my own efforts, but I don't owe Antelli anything. It is a great sacrifice to follow the daughter of the dead king without abandoning it, even though it has almost destroyed the country and could have found another way out, and if anyone thinks that I should live in a straw hut and sleep on the floor like the soldiers outside the cave, I will turn and leave. A high-level Grand Magus, where can you eat?"
Rhodes nodded, although he felt that it was inappropriate, but he respected the ideas of others, and did not feel that he had the right to say things in the case of sending people under the fence. But there's one more thing to be concerned about: "Nikita...... It's the little girl who came with me, what about her?"
"Don't worry, I won't let her be bullied by those rough soldiers, she will be properly arranged. The female mage smiled, carried a tablecloth and a bunch of things, and walked towards the door: "Please feel free, just treat it as your own home." ”
......
The mage turned to leave, and closed the door with her as she left. Rod sighed and sat down at the table in the room. The little fox noticed that there was no one around, so he finally poked his head out of his bag, jumped on the bed and tried the feeling of lying on it, then returned to him and turned into a human form, stretched out contentedly, and grabbed Rhodes from behind.
A smile appeared on the young man's heart-filled face, and he turned his head and kissed the little fox girl.
They made out on the boat on the night they escaped from the arena, and although it took a lot of effort to get the ring out of Yin'er's body afterwards, there was also an unexpected gain: as if they had really found the right way to open the little vixen, the relationship between the two quietly changed after that night...... It is no longer as rigid and afraid of the slave girl as she was in the past, and the harmony is much more natural.
In the past, Rhodes always had to say that the little fox girl would do it in a commanding tone, but now he has begun to be willing to take the initiative to show his original form and stick to him.
"It's as close as a friend, but it's also willing to be intimate with yourself. This was what the boy had wanted to achieve when he brought the little fox girl home from the slave traders, and he had almost done the first thing, and then he was too eager to kiss Fang Ze to make all his previous efforts go to waste. On the contrary, it was the distress and suffering that escaped all the way from an accident, but somehow it was crooked, and the accident made the relationship between them reach the ideal state of dreams.
"Keep teaching me literacy tonight. The little fox girl hooked the young man's neck and said expectantly with her face in his ear.
"Good. Rod now wanted to spoil Yin'er to the sky, so he agreed without thinking about it, took out the books from the bag, and rummaged through: "Hmm...... Where did I teach you last time?"
"We saw a magic textbook last time. The girl pointed to one of them and looked at the boy expectantly: "Xiao Luo, do you know the spells in that book, I know most of the words, but I can't understand anything." ”
"I can't walk, so I'm in a hurry to run. Rod laughed and pulled her into his arms from behind, "I don't know most of the spells on this, so you better read all the words first." Magic is a simple trick, and it is not only difficult to learn on your own, but also dangerous, and if you are not careful, something will happen. ”
The little fox girl pursed her lips: "But I really want to learn, what should I do." ”
"When you get home, ask Roy, and she ignores you...... I'll help you find Catherine and let her take the time to teach you. After saying this, Rhodes hesitated for a moment, and soon realized that if he wanted to do this, everything had to be based on the fact that he was still the son of Duke Foster, that Roy still regarded him as a younger brother, and that Catherine was still his godsister.
Once the showdown asks his parents why he is different from ordinary people, what will he face is still secondary, and Yin'er wants to go home and learn magic and other wishes, I'm afraid they will have to be in vain. If she finds out that she knows too much and is going to be destroyed, she is afraid that she will also be unlucky...... People who have worries can't really do whatever they want. For the sake of insurance, in order to satisfy the wishes of the little fox girl, he decided to choose the safest and most aggrieved plan, pretending not to know anything and continuing to be a young nobleman, and then find a chance to slowly explore the mystery of his life experience when he sends her home.
Shaking off a bunch of worries in his heart, he opened the book and continued to teach the girl to read and write, and the two sat together to ask and answer, but after half an hour of serious teaching, Rod couldn't help but put his hand under Yin'er's shirt, and teased her to make her angry.
Just as the two of them were about to finish their teaching and start some other more enjoyable activities, the door suddenly opened again, and the owner of the room walked in with a basket.
