Chapter 16 Butterfly Flowers
We got on board and got ready to head to Dablin Island. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Uncle Gale used wind magic to make the boat go fast, and we soon left the island.
From a distance, I saw that there were many such monsters over the island, but luckily we left the island as soon as possible, otherwise my old wounds would not have healed, and I would have had to add new wounds.
I didn't encounter any monsters along the way, which is lucky, probably because there are only water dragons in this water. In the evening, we arrived at the port of Dablin.
After saying goodbye to Uncle Gale, the captain took the crew and dragon scales with him. But we don't have any money on us, only the bag of dragon scales. I left half a bag so that I wouldn't even be able to eat when I came to this place. Charlie found the ship of an acquaintance in the port, and talked to the man for a long time before he was willing to send the captain and them back to Axel, and for this purpose he took a lot of dragon scales. But the task was finally completed, and with this half pack of dragon scales, he could also enjoy his life on Dablin Island for a while.
Charlie went to deal with the mansion first, and I took a good look around the island.
This Dablin Island is different from the bustling city of Axel, and its unique natural scenery is even more charming. Most of the houses here are made of wood or stone, which looks simple and charming. The people on the street are also dressed modestly, most of them are wearing cloth shirts, and it seems that the people here are living a stable life.
In the evening, people went home and the streets became a little deserted. I walked down the street, looking for black shops. Soon, I found one, but the lights were dark, and I still couldn't break in, so I knocked on the door.
"Who?" asked the people in the room lazily, deliberately elongated to make people think that this was an ordinary family, but unfortunately none of this escaped my eyes.
"Dealers, there's something you like. I replied in a proper manner, after all, they are all people who understand.
"Come in. The man stopped stretching his tune and answered normally.
I pushed the door open and entered the house. There was only one candle in the room, and the candlelight was just right to make out the other person's face.
I brought him a piece of dragon scales and asked, "Do you have any rare things in this shop?"
He took out a small bamboo tube with a crystal embedded in one end. The crystal suddenly glowed, a little harsh. He took the dragon scales, looked at the light, looked at them carefully, and said, "This is a good thing, it is basically difficult for a living creature in this water to grow such wonderful scales." What kind of scales are these?"
"These are the scales of a water dragon. ”
"Oh, that's great, tell me, what do you want to order? I'm mostly crystal stuff. ”
"Crystal, forget it, I already have it. But what kind of special crystal is this glowing crystal of yours?"
"This is an ordinary crystal, you want to glow, and the crystal glows. ”
I tried it, and indeed, it was simple and practical.
"Is there anything else interesting?" I wondered what was interesting here.
"In addition to crystals, there are a few rare things made from plants that are abundant on Dabulin. For example, poison made from scorpion grass, anesthetic powder made from sunflower pollen, and aphrodisiac powder made from butterfly flower. There are also some things in the sea that are made into more poisons. ”
"Oh, it looks like your shop mainly sells poisons. ”
"These things are abundant on this island, except for the hard currency of crystal, other things can actually be found everywhere, but I have a relatively complete range of potions here. ”
"I still have a lot of dragon scales, you prepare some for me for each potion, and make marks and instructions so that I can do research. If it doesn't work, I'll come back to you. "I brought him several dragon scales. If I slay the dragon again in the future, I won't be so hard-working, just poison it with poison, and if the poison doesn't die, it can make it unable to move.
"Okay, I'll have it for you. ”
After a while, he prepared a large box for me, and I smiled helplessly and had to move away.
When I got out of the black shop, I happened to meet Charlie who was looking for me on the street.
"Your Excellency, where have you been again? I can't find you. ”
"Alright, let's go. ”
"I'll help you move this box. ”
"No, I don't think you can move. "This box is quite heavy.
Follow Charlie and soon arrive at the mansion here. This mansion is on the uphill road, probably because there is a mountain on this island, and the roads here are all ramps. At night, I couldn't see what was around the mansion at all, and I couldn't even see what the mansion looked like, so I had to go in.
After entering, it was much brighter, and there were many candles lit in the hall, which were as bright as in the daytime. But this king really has a habit of maids, and even there are two rows of maids here in this house. I sighed helplessly and went upstairs with the suitcase. Leaving the box in the bedroom, I followed the maid to the dining room. The food here is not quite the same as Axel's, but it is also very delicate and delicious.
After eating, I changed my clothes and went to the bathroom. When I entered the bathroom, there was a row of maids at the door, and I couldn't stand it anymore and blasted them all away. I soaked in the bath, but I didn't want to come out. But compared to that box of potions, the bath was not as attractive to me. I finished my shower and quickly changed my clothes and went back to my bedroom.
When I entered the bedroom, I smelled a scent, which made people feel very comfortable and beautiful. There happened to be a maid cleaning the bedroom next to me, and when she saw me come in, she was a little panicked.
"It's okay, you do yours. I casually said to her.
The maid blushed a little. I don't know why, but my heart beat a little faster when I looked at her. I hadn't done this before, so I didn't care, and I was in a hurry to open the box and study my potion.
After opening the box, the fragrance is even stronger. I couldn't control myself anymore, and the charming appearance of the maid lingered in my mind. I finally couldn't take it anymore and rushed over and threw her to the ground.
The maid did not struggle, but blushed even more. I could hear my own heartbeat distinctly, my breathing became more rapid, and my lips involuntarily pressed close to hers.
Suddenly, Charlie broke down the door, saw us untidy, and immediately closed the door. I was a little upset, so I hurried out to chase him and ask him what was the matter.
"Your Excellency, now the whole house is filled with the fragrance of Mu Diehua, I thought someone did it on purpose, and I wanted him to catch it. But since your Excellency did it, I won't disturb your good night. I'm sorry. After saying that, Charlie wanted to slip away.
I guessed that the medicine in the box was leaking, so I immediately pulled him back and asked, "Why don't the butterflies I saw in Axel have such a fragrance?"
"Strange to say, this butterfly flower is only scented here on Dablin Island, and in other places it is only very clear. But your Excellency, if you didn't put this scent on purpose, it would be better to appease the maid. ”
I was stunned for a moment. After all, this is the first time I have such an impulse, and it is not an initiative, but it is still born because of the fragrance of flowers. But at that moment, it was a feeling of happiness that I had never experienced, that I had never had. It was at that moment that I let go of all my defenses and enjoyed the beauty to the fullest.
I didn't know what to do with her, and when I went back to the bedroom, I saw her still lying on the floor, her hands covering her face, and I didn't know what her expression was. I helped her up, and I didn't know how to comfort her, after all, I hadn't dealt with a girl before, and this was the first time. If Harvey had been here, I might have asked for some experience.
While I was struggling, the maid suddenly ran away. I sighed, chased after her, grabbed her hand, and apologized to her: "Yes...... I'm sorry, I'm getting carried away by the aphrodisiac. Actually, I didn't mean that......"
"It's okay, in fact, I understand, I was also paralyzed by the fragrance of Mu Diehua. It's my fault. She shook off my hand and ran away.
I don't know what to say at this point. It was late at night, so I asked Charlie to clean up the other bedroom and go to sleep.
The next morning, I woke up early. I was still very concerned about it, and I walked around the house in the morning, but I didn't see the maid.
"Your Excellency, the maid has already sent the money away. I've paid enough hush money and it shouldn't make a difference to you. "Charlie came out of nowhere.
"Just send her away, just give her enough money, lest her life be difficult. ”
"Your Excellency actually doesn't think about yourself first, but thinks about the maid first, is it possible that you are attracted to her?"
"How could it be. It's just that I feel a little guilty. ”
"But since you're doing something excessive, it doesn't matter. Your Excellency really underestimated the power of this butterfly flower. Since there is such a legend, it is probably necessary to think that this flower has such a purpose. ”
"Looks like I'm going to have to be careful, those drugs need to be studied carefully. ”
"What medicine?"
"Ah, nothing. ”
I quickly slipped into the room where the boxes were kept. But as soon as I entered the house, there was a smell of butterflies. I quickly opened the window for ventilation. The smell was still strong, and I found the bottle of aphrodisiac and took it out of the house.
When I got out of the house, I forgot about this stubble, and went to the black merchant again with dragon scales. I asked him for some money and went to the street to buy something new.
There were still a lot of interesting things on the street, and I looked here and there, and the morning passed quickly.
At noon, I found a food stall and ordered some random food, which was considered lunch. It's been a long time since I've eaten these things outside, and it's a delicacy compared to what I usually eat, although it's not exquisite.
Just as I was eating hard, I looked up and saw a group of big men surrounding two weak women. One of the buriest men pulled the hand of a woman in front of him. I don't think it's pleasing to the eye, and I wanted to help them, but after all, I don't know the place well, so it's better not to cause trouble.
I watched from the sidelines, and I couldn't hear what they were saying. But the more I looked, the more wrong it became, the big man actually took out a knife and swung it at the weak woman. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I took something from my waist and threw it over. But I didn't look closely at what to throw away, and I threw the bottle of aphrodisiac over. But I couldn't do much more, and when they looked at me, I used the crystal on the dagger to shine a dazzling light, and they immediately blocked the light with their hands. I hid my breath, rushed over and grabbed the hand of the woman in front of me and ran. I saw that the woman in the back might have some skills, so I let her run on her own, and of course she soon followed.
When the big men saw me running away, they immediately called for someone to chase me. I don't know the streets and alleys very well, and as we ran, we were surrounded by their people.
"You kid is a good thing for me, see how I clean you up today. "The big man was in front of me.
"This woman doesn't know you. Molesting women from good families on the street, you are really shameless. ”
"What are you talking about! Look at me not to kill you today!" the big man pulled out a big knife from the waist of the man next to him and swung it at me. I let go of the woman's hand, and immediately pulled out the short knife from my waist and took the blow. This blow is not heavy, and it is really small compared to those monsters.
The big man was stunned for a moment when he saw that I had blocked the attack with one hand. Taking advantage of his hesitation, I instantly picked off his knife and punched him hard in the stomach. The guy immediately clutched his stomach and rolled on the ground. He really underestimated me, and if I didn't have any punch power, I would have been beaten to death by the thugs in Oasis City.
I grabbed the woman in one arm, carried her on my shoulder, clenched the short knife in my hand, rushed straight to the person blocking in front of me with an arrow step, struck one person in the neck with the back of the knife, and kicked the other person away at the same time, and escaped directly from the encirclement. Another woman followed me and ran away.
Running to a place where there were no people, I put the woman on my shoulder.
"What's going on with you two, how are you being targeted by them?" I asked, gasping for breath. This woman is not light, and I am running so fast, it is inevitable that I will lose my physical strength.
"I accompanied my young lady out shopping, but I happened to meet the local snake here, which was really unlucky. The man asked my young lady to be his wife, but my young lady disagreed, so he said that he would ruin her face. The woman who was running next to her also gasped and said.
I took a closer look at the woman. This woman looked about my age, beautiful as a flower, and her hands were very slender, and I felt it when I grabbed it just now. For a moment, I had the same urge I had experienced last night. But there is no aphrodisiac here, it should be an impulse from the heart. I was a little overwhelmed for a moment and turned my head to the side.
When the woman looked at me, she lowered her head as well, and her white cheeks flushed. She said a little shyly, "Thank you for saving us just now." Dare to ask for your name?"
I looked at her and was speechless for a moment, unable to even say my name. After holding it for a long time, I said, "Call me...... Raphael will do it. What about you?"
"My name is Alice, and this is my maid, Lisa. She didn't even dare to look me in the eye, but pointed to another woman.
I didn't know what to say, so I took her hand and said to her, "Alice, where is your house? ”
She lowered her head and said nothing.
I thought about it for a while, and then said, "Since you have a hard time, why don't you come and sit at my house?" As soon as I finished speaking, my face turned red all of a sudden. How can you say such a thing at this time, it stands to reason that you shouldn't just say goodbye. I don't know why, but I said these thoughtless words.
What she didn't expect was that she actually nodded. I took her hand and walked to the mansion.
When she arrived at the door of the mansion, Alice was a little surprised. I smiled, took her hand, and went into the house.
As soon as I pushed the door, I saw Charlie. Charlie smiled wickedly when he saw me holding Alice's hand. But when he took a closer look at Alice, he immediately became serious again, and came over to salute.
"Your Excellency Raphael, Your Highness Alice, you have missed the distance, and you hope to forgive your sins. ”
I whispered to Charlie, "How do you know her name is Alice?"
He whispered to me, "This is the daughter of the Lord of Dablin, Alice Wilson. "I was taken aback. Unexpectedly, he saved the lord's daughter. "Also, Your Excellency, you still have the scent of butterflies on you, even on Her Royal Highness Alice. What happened to you guys?"
I didn't know what to say, but holding Alice's hand, I felt an inexplicable sense of happiness. It was even more intense than the feeling that the maid had given me yesterday. For some reason, I didn't want to let go. Anyway, I have some ability, so I just do it once, and I will bear the consequences.
I pulled Alice onto the couch and we sat down side by side. Charlie immediately made tea and brought it over.
I couldn't help it, probably carried away, turned around and said to her, "Alice, I think I'm in love with you." If you like me, would you like to marry me?"
