Chapter Twenty-Nine: Invitation
The winter sun carried a hint of coldness, through the wooden window, refracted on the face of Jin Li, who was leaning on the head of the bed.
A pair of distinct eyes opened, as if they were not used to coming from the darkness to the light, and subconsciously contracted.
Jin Li sat up, and the white robe was still as good as new after a night, but the corner of the white robe was pressed under the woman lying beside him.
He looked at the ordinary but unique face, his eyes were deep, he thought for a moment, his slender fingers reached out, and gently pinched the woman's sleeping face.
"What's wrong?" Nineteen sat up with sparse eyes, stretched his waist widely, and his slender waist was exposed. She hadn't slept so comfortably for a long time, in such a dangerous world, she had to be vigilant every day to avoid being killed in her sleep, and Jin Li's side was her only harbor.
"Did you sleep well?" she asked, smiling, as she had woken up from the grass in the woods all those years ago.
Jin Li didn't speak, stretched out his hand, picked up a corner of the white robe in her confused eyes, and then the white light on his hand overflowed.
Nineteen's face changed suddenly, he glared at Jin Li coldly, pushed his body away, stood up and walked out.
Jin Li was slightly flustered, following behind Nineteen, and in front of him, the place that was pushed by Nineteen was overflowing with white light.
"Hey, beauty. At the door, Sloe Chong Nineteen showed a big smile and greeted him very warmly.
Nineteen glanced at him coldly, the frost on his face could freeze a silver dragon to death, and he walked over directly.
"Eh?" Slow scratched his bald head inexplicably, and asked Jin Li behind, "What's wrong with her?"
Jin Li glanced at him coldly, the calm in his eyes could drown a silver dragon, he didn't raise his head, and walked over directly.
"Huh?" Slow was even more puzzled, turned his head, and said to Moyer behind him, "What's wrong with them?"
Moyer shook his head, a pair of emerald green eyes staring at Jin Li, resolute and terrifying.
"What a strange race. Slow thought about it, but still couldn't figure it out, and directly blamed it on the races of Jin Li and Nineteen.
As soon as Nineteen walked down the stairs, a slightly blessed middle-aged man greeted him, bent down slightly, the smile on his face couldn't find anything wrong, and a magnetic voice sounded in the hall.
"Madam, Duke Ruskin has prepared a banquet to welcome you at the Duke's Palace. ”
Nineteen's face was like frost, and he looked at him coldly, and the middle-aged man who looked at him stiffened and suffered cardiac arrest, and the murderous aura that had been accumulated for more than ten years was not something that he could withstand as a butler of the Duke's Mansion.
"Hmph. ”
A soft snort sounded in his mind like thunder, and he was dizzy for a moment, and cold sweat flowed down all of a sudden.
Nineteen glanced disdainfully at the staggering butler who was about to fall, smiled mockingly, stepped aside, and sat down on his own.
"Are you alright? ”
In a gentle voice, a slender hand reached over and supported the butler in time, and when the butler reluctantly smiled to express his gratitude, Jin Li continued: "You come to greet you in person, please go back and tell the Duke, we"
"Don't go!"
Mo Ye walked out from behind Jin Li, looking at Jin Li holding the butler's hand, his brows furrowed deeply, Jin Li actually made such a concession, which made his voice carry a sense of anger.
"Don't care. Jin Li glanced at Mo Ye, and a faint ray of light power poured into the butler's body, helping him resist Mo Ye's prestige against him, and continued in his mouth: "This brother of mine is not very good-tempered, please tell Lord Duke, we will do it immediately"
"Don't go. Moyer continued, his tone as firm as ever: "What kind of banquet to eat in the morning, boss, let's have buckwheat porridge." ”
A trace of anger flashed in Jin Li's calm eyes, and he let go of the hand on the butler's body, and where the butler couldn't see, a ray of white light swam.
"You, can you not do this. ”
"No, you can't. ”
Mo Ye raised his eyebrows, looked at Jin Li, who was faintly chilling, and then looked at the housekeeper behind him who was constantly wiping his sweat, and smiled, smiling very strangely.
"Then you don't want to go. Jin Li said softly, turned around and nodded to the housekeeper: "I'm sorry for you." ”
"No trouble, no trouble. ”
The housekeeper took a deep breath, suppressed the dizziness in his head, and said quickly.
"That's it, boss, I don't want buckwheat porridge, and the master is going to the duke's house for a banquet. ”
After speaking, he walked past Jin Li's side and came to the housekeeper, with a thick chill, and said with a smile: "I'm going now, you won't object, right?"
The housekeeper didn't dare to raise his head, and the chill could be felt even if he lowered his head, so he hurriedly said, "Don't dare, please come with me." ”
He pinched a cold sweat in his heart, yesterday he saw the little duke's miserable fat face with snot and saliva flowing downward, and he didn't sleep at night, thinking that the duke had given him this task, he ran again in the morning to look at the little duke's face that he couldn't bear to look at directly, and he was so worried that his white hair was about to grow.
Coming to the most splendid carriage of the Duke's Palace, he cautiously raised his head to look at Moyer's face, and his heart was half cold again.
Mo Ye just wants to turn around now and laugh at Jin Li unscrupulously, this duke is a mallet, knowing his situation, he is so unaware of life and death, hoping that the other party will despise him?
Ha, that's the Dharma Saint, not the group of power-hungry Dharma Saints in the Holy See of Light, this is a group of Dharma Saints of the Mage Guild who have gathered for a goal.
Proud, noble, wise, dedicating their lives to magic, there is never a conspiracy in their eyes, white is white, black is black.
The fact that a duke without rights to show off in the city like a mouse dancing in front of a cat is nothing short of a naked provocation to their authority, a naked insult to their personality. Not killing this mouse in the first place is already considered very merciful.
Moyer's face changed, and finally he smiled again, he suddenly wanted to meet this duke, after all, smart people have seen a lot, and it is also a good choice to meet such a rare second goods.
He smiled and praised the magnificence of the car, turned his head, and very warmly invited Jin Li, Nineteen, and Sloe to get into the car, as if this was his car.
The butler watched the four people get into the carriage, breathed a long sigh of relief, and wiped the cold sweat on his face, it was really exciting. He waved his hand and signaled the driver to hurry up and unload this "burden" quickly, and he would have a few more years to live.
The sun gradually climbed upward, and although there was still no temperature at all, the dazzling sunlight still woke up this prosperous city.
Merchants opened their doors, pedestrians took to the road, and the city reached the climax of the day in an instant.
"Moyer, give up. ”
In the walking carriage, Jin Li sat alone in a corner, his calm eyes with helplessness, and sighed softly.
"Where do you start?" said Moyer, looking down, playfully.
"You can't stop me like this. ”
"So you want me to watch us die?"
"Die?" Moyer frowned: "I'm not going to die, I just want to"
"Hehe" a low laugh, Moyer raised his head and said, "I can't think of any possibility for you but to die." ”
"You have to trust me!"
"Believe you, so you're going to face the two Dharma Saints again, and then tease them with your elusive light?"
"Do you really think your light escape is omnipotent?"
Moyer's thick mockery, a look of disdain.
"Isn't it possible?" Jin Li asked very seriously.
"Hehe" Moye laughed, shaking his head vigorously at Jin Li, and after a while, he stopped and said word by word: "Anyway, I will never let you succeed, this plan must be shelved." ”
"You can try. After speaking, Jin Li closed his eyes and said no more, but the slightly raised knuckles of his hands showed the anger in Jin Li.
His heart was roaring, the third child was coming, he didn't have much time at all, he had to speed up the process, otherwise, once the third child arrived, things would become unimaginable, perhaps, he might really die.
Light escape is not omnipotent, but in addition to space and time, there is only light escape.
And the third child is the one who escapes the fastest.
However, there is no way to tell Moyer about all this, his identity is too sensitive, sensitive to the point of being hated by gods and ghosts, and he can't say it, he can't say it.
Jin Li opened his eyes bitterly, and when he opened them, his eyes were already clear, and his calm face looked out the window, through the gorgeous carriage window.
The merchant turned on his voice and shouted loudly to attract the pedestrian's desire to buy, the pedestrian wiped the beads of sweat that did not exist on his head, wrapped the not thick fur on his body, and cursed viciously for this damn weather, on the side of the road, the children chased and played, and after a while, he ran away without a trace, and then, a strong man poked his head out of the window, scolded angrily, scolded for a while and may have lost interest, muttered and shrank back, and snapped the window shut. A ghostly figure walked out of the alley, looked left and right, and disappeared into the crowd at once.
That's life, it just doesn't belong to him.
"Let's let, let's let. ”
A shout interrupted Jin Li's contemplation, and his ears were ringing, and a huge body swept past the gorgeous carriage, its thick arms raised high, and a pair of huge horns on its head, very arrogant.
Kaka glanced at Jin Li, spat disdainfully, turned his head, and watched the huge burden walk towards the crowd.
"Minotaur?"
