Sun Knight (3)

Shortly after the sun rose, Emilia arrived at the door of the train station. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info"I'm looking for Paladin Phoenix. As she said this, the guard on duty was staring intently at her lovely face.

Emilia is glamorous today, she wears a velvet leather coat with an ornate belt around her waist. The asymmetrical skirt was also eye-catching, with the right corner of the skirt reaching to the ankle, while the other side showed off her beautiful thighs.

"Lord Paladin is upstairs, with High Knight Liddy. You can visit at any time, but remember to knock on the door. ”

"Okay, thank you. ”

She bowed in thanks and passed through the guards, carrying a burst of jasmine. She entered the hall and immediately attracted everyone's attention. Neither knights nor commoners, there was no one who did not fall for her beauty. They were all looking at me. Emilia was secretly happy that she had spent the whole night choosing outfits that had been a great success. She stroked her silver hair, her leather boots rattling on the old wooden staircase, and she came to the command post of the Sun Knights.

When the young guard at the door saw her, his face flushed. Emilia smiled at him and knocked lightly on the door, "Phoenix, may I come in?"

"Oh, yes. ”

A familiar voice from behind the door replied, and Emilia twisted the doorknob slightly, pushing open the old mahogany door. At a glance, she saw Phoenix at his desk, surrounded by books and materials, and the paper on the desk almost overwhelmed him. The High Knight Liddy stood aside and shrugged helplessly at her.

"Amilia, you've come just in time. "Get out of the way of this workaholic, he's been buried in these books for a day and a night." ”

"What's wrong?"

"It's a long story. ”

Emilia covered her mouth and looked at the scene in front of her in surprise, it was the first time she had seen such a Phoenix, he used to be radiant, but now he looked like a scruffy university professor. She slowly approached, her fingertips slicing over the corner of the table, picking up a piece of paper, revealing that it contained the names of events she didn't know about, connected in black ink.

"What is this?"

"Sorry Amilia, it's classified. Liddy said, and Emilia could understand, too. She didn't want to know everything, she had another purpose today, but looking at Phoenix in front of her, she was a little unconfident.

"Phoenix?" she tried to exclaim.

"Yes, I'm listening. The paladin replied without looking up, "What's the matter?"

"Very important thing...... But before that I think you have to take a break. Emilia said solemnly, tapping the corner of the table with her slender hand.

"Sorry, I don't have time to ......"

"Don't have time to rest? You've been here for a day and a night, full of stuff you don't know...... Hey don't stare at me, I mean, I know your job is important. However, there is no need to do it yourself. You have an excellent assistant, and Mr. Liddy must be in a hurry, for he seems to be better at handling such things than you are. ”

Liddy raised an eyebrow, his own words seemed to be very much in line with the high-ranking knight's wishes.

"Right, Lydy?"

"Of course, I told him so. Liddy shrugged and reached for the quill in Phoenix's hand. "Come, listen to Amilia, put down your pen, drink a glass of wine, and wash up. Then find a place where the sun can shine and have a good conversation with this beautiful young lady. Don't tell me you didn't notice how beautiful she is today. ”

"No, I mean ......" He glanced at Emilia with a resolute gaze, and finally nodded reluctantly. "Well, I'll listen to you. ”

He stood up, stretched, and yawned heavily. "Can you wait a minute, Amilia. I'll sort it out. The young paladin asked Emilia for instructions, and the silver-haired girl wanted nothing more than to laugh.

"Go ahead, Phoenix. She held back a smile and nodded, watching Phoenix disappear through the door.

"Thank you, Amilia. Only you can persuade him. ”

Liddy handed her a cup of tea with a few white flower bags floating on it. Emilia took it gratefully and sniffed it in front of her nose. It was the taste of jasmine, she was pleasantly surprised to find.

"How?"

"It's refreshing. She commented, grimacing.

"That's good, Phoenix has always disliked ......"

"Doesn't he like jasmine?"

"No, no, I mean he doesn't like tea. ”

Maybe Liddy saw her frustration, or maybe she noticed the jasmine fragrance on her body, and the high-ranking knight quickly explained. Emilia can only accept his statement, otherwise it is tantamount to admitting that her dress is completely miscalculated.

"So, what are you doing with Phoenix? I can roughly guess ......."

"We'll find out later. She playfully stuck out her tongue, and the high-ranking knight could only obey.

"Okay. He said.

So the two talked about the big and small interesting things in the town. The apple seller was deceived by a prostitute and came out of the tavern with only a pair of trousers, and the painter in the crooked hat got into trouble with several drunks, and after being teased, the easel was smashed to pieces, and his face was covered with colorful paint.

"Aren't they afraid of being caught in the dark room by their noses?" asked Emilia curiously.

"Some small fights, as long as there are no fatalities, we generally don't interfere too much. You can't get kicked by a donkey, you have to let us investigate, right? Besides, the painter isn't a good guy. "Let's talk about the peddler, he's different." The Knights of the Sun forbade such behavior, and it stands to reason that he and the prostitute would have to be put in a black cell. But, Phoenix said: We are not rulers, but only knights who punish evil and promote good, and have no right to make so-called laws. If others don't come to us, it's best not to interfere unless it's too much of a concern for the safety of the residents. The peddler seemed to be ashamed and didn't come to us to report the crime, so the matter was over. ”

Emilia listened with interest to the High Knight's speech, laughing knowingly from time to time.

A moment later, there was a steady step outside the door, and the paladin Phoenix, changing into a new uniform and cape, appeared in front of Emilia in a heroic appearance.

"Well, yes, much better than just now. Emilia tilted her head, playing with the strands of hair on her forehead, "But that won't work, Phoenix." You can't dress like this today. ”

"I don't wear it like this all the time today?" the paladin was a little puzzled, "what do you mean, what are you coming to me for?"

"Wedding. ”

"What?" Phoenix cleared his ears to make sure he heard correctly.

"That's right, I want you to accompany me to a wedding. Our friend's. The wedding banquet stipulates that everyone needs to bring a companion, preferably a male partner. So...... "There's no better companion than a paladin," a wicked smile crossed Amilia's lips. ”

"Hey, hey, wait. His Holiness the Paladin looked panicked, "Why did I go with you? Don't you know a lot of people? ”

"Please, Phoenix......" Emilia was a little disappointed with the other party's performance, but she still calmed down and persuaded slowly. "The artist's easel was dismantled by a couple of drunks, and I don't think he had time to accompany me to some happy wedding reception. And that hunter...... Honestly, wouldn't you be upset if I had asked him out?" she raised an eyebrow, teasing the young paladin.

"Of course...... No. Phoenix's answer seemed weak, and his thoughts were already written on his bright face. Emilia tilted her head, his heel tapped against the board, and looked at the embarrassed Phoenix with a wicked smile.

"Hahaha, looks like you're losing, Phoenix. The awkward silence was broken by the laughter of the High Knight, who stepped forward and patted his friend on the shoulder. "According to the teachings of the sun, rest today. Although there are many transactions, I can handle it. Well, you can ride your horse with this beautiful young lady, and go to a special wedding feast with the scent of earth and flowers. I am sure that it will be a great experience for you. ”

With that, he looked at Emilia, who cast him a look of appreciation and gratitude.

Finally, under the siege of his friends and beauties, Phoenix finally gave in. He nodded, and said two words that filled Emilia's heart: "Okay." But then, he scratched his head in embarrassment, looking confused.

"What's wrong?" asked Emilia with concern.

"A wedding feast...... That is, I have to prepare a beautiful tuxedo and a red bow? it's so funny......" he said bitterly.

The paladin's remarks caused the other two to burst out laughing. "Please, Phoenix. Do you only know how to lead troops to war, or have you been in Sun City for too long?" said Liddy, "and it's a country wedding. No church, no pastor...... No, maybe there was a bald priest with gray sideburns and a white robe. However, you don't need to wear any tuxedo at all, or rather, it will make people think that you are arrogant and cold. He paused, then continued, "See the lady next to you? You need to be like her...... Of course, you don't have to wear a long skirt, but at least a lace-patterned top and tight leather pants. ”

Emilia agrees with Liddy's suggestion.

"Ah, well...... "It took Phoenix a long time to figure out what Lydy meant, "it looks so much better than that silly tuxedo." ”

"Well, it's much better. Emilia smiled and leaned into Phoenix's face, touching his prick stubble. "Remember to shave your beard too. Her gesture made Phoenix uncomfortably swing around.

"The wedding feast was four o'clock in the afternoon, and out of politeness, we had to come for an hour to listen to the organ and play games. Emilia left the paladin and headed for the door. "It takes an hour to ride a horse, but I'm sure you'll be there in 40 minutes. Now, go get some sleep, I don't want my male partner to sink into the cream cake in the middle of the party. She pushed the door open and turned to the people in the room.

"I'll come to you at one o'clock in the afternoon, and of course if you want to treat me to lunch, I don't mind coming half an hour early. She saluted politely, threw down the stunned paladin, and walked down the mahogany staircase with a "thud".

A gust of wind wafted by, and the air was filled with the scent of jasmine.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, when Emilia saw Phoenix again, the other party had already changed into a new outfit. He wore a dark red blouse with gold trim, a pair of black corset leather trousers, a dark gold belt around his waist, and the Knights of the Sun insignia on his chest. In addition to this, Emilia can smell the orange perfume.

I have to say that she is a little impressed.

"Yes, Phoenix, very good. She smiled and looked at the man in front of her, who was almost a different person, and did not hesitate to praise it, "Mr. Liddy has dressed you so well. ”

"Thank you, beautiful lady. The High Knight bowed and thanked him.

"But, this won't work. Emilia brushed Phoenix's chest with her white hand, and then took off the badge. "Just be like a normal person, this thing can cause unexpected trouble. ”

"Trouble?"

"Yes, not everyone likes you, and I can't guarantee that there will be no such people at the wedding party. "Just in case." ”

"Okay. Phoenix nodded in agreement. He was a man who didn't care about all this vanity, Emilia thought comfortably.

"Let's go?" the paladin suggested.

"Of course. Thank you for your help, Mr. Liddy. ”

Emilia bowed deeply to the High Knight, and Phoenix thanked him. After that, under the envious and jealous eyes of everyone, the two came to the stable behind the train station. The paladin gentlemanly asked Emilia to pick a horse first, and she decided to choose a tall and muscular brown horse, while Phoenix rode a fast horse with gray sideburns.

"Which of us will arrive first?" Amilia challenged.

"Farewell, Amilia. Phoenix smiled and refused, "You almost trampled the bazaar in the last horse race, and I'm afraid the knights won't be able to save you if you do that again this time." ”

"What are you afraid of, the knights can't, and you. And the way to the wedding banquet does not pass by the market, it is a quiet and beautiful forest path. ”

"Then I'm more worried about whether you're going to hit a tree. ”

"Then let's try it, don't just talk about not practicing!"

Emilia pulled the reins, shouted, and rode her steed out of the stable, where she faintly heard Phoenix's helpless sigh. "Drive!" she looked back, and Phoenix followed with his BMW. She smiled mysteriously, kicked the horse's belly hard, and sprang forward like a gale.

Phoenix didn't show any weakness, his qualities as a Knight of the Sun were on full display, and despite the narrow and small road, his horse was steady on the ground. In contrast, Emilia's horse is much more lively, and it scurries from side to side, almost hitting the trunk of a tree several times, leaving Emilia dizzy.

"Hey, be careful!" she heard her companion behind her scream, and the next moment he stood shoulder to shoulder with her. He forcibly pulled Emilia's reins, coaxing and frightening her, causing her horse to slow down.

"What are you doing?" said Emilia, unhappily.

"If you run down any longer, you'll really hit a tree. Phoenix touched her horse's neck, "This guy doesn't like a noisy master, and he might throw you out in a fit of rage." ”

"Ah...... Well, thank you. Emilia squeezed out a reluctant smile, kicked the horse's belly lightly, and slowly hit the road again.

"How far is it?" the paladin followed.

"I don't know, maybe half an hour, maybe ten minutes. Emilia shrugged.

"Hey, don't you know?"

"Of course I know, it's just that it's densely forested and there's no reference. We rode faster than usual, and now we're slowing down again, and who knows how long it will take. ”

"Okay...... Tell me what's interesting about the farmer's wedding feast, and won't let me do anything strange, will you?"

Emilia glanced at the fidgeting paladin and laughed out loud. It took her a long time to stop laughing under Phoenix's helpless gaze, and then she began to describe to him all sorts of customs, some of them some of them and some of them not. "The first one, donkey racing. She raised her index finger and said as if she were serious. "People have to choose a donkey, and then gamble their precious treasures to compete in the mud of the countryside. ”

"Sounds ...... Not too hard. Phoenix nodded earnestly.

"Oh, of course. After all, every farmer rides a donkey. Emilia continued, quietly surveying Phoenix's expression. Also, there was a pool at the wedding feast, and the women would throw their shoes down, and then the male partner would go down to find them. Oh, don't look at me like that, you can not participate, but you will miss out on the big prizes. ”

"What prize?"

"A kiss from a beautiful female companion. ”

Emilia whispered in his ear, watching Phoenix's ears turn red. She laughed, and rode past her male companion, carrying a burst of jasmine. Of course, you can also say no. She looked forward, not looking at Phoenix's expression. "Other than that, it's good music and good wine. It is said that they also brought in a lot of jugglers, the kind of people who can breathe fire and do tricks......"

"We can drink to our heart's content, dance to our heart's content, and have a hangover all night until dawn. ”

"Sounds good. The paladin sounded like he was finally in the mood, and he caught up with it, his face full of anticipation. "You say there's a pond there? Is there a lake?"

"Well, that's right, there's a big lake, and maybe you can see the moon on a good day. Emilia nodded.

"Then after the feast, maybe we can lie on the grass, blow the lake breeze, look at the moon and the stars, and talk about something. ”

"What, what? You said we were all drunk, sitting by the lake and watching the stars and moons?"

"Oh, what's wrong? Or we can ...... too."

"No, no. Emilia shook her head and interrupted, "Just listen to you, look at the stars and the moon, and talk about something." Then paddle to the middle of the lake...... It's a good Phoenix, it's really romantic. Emilia whipped her whip with admiration, and the horse kicked up a cloud of dust and ran forward.

"Wait, Amilia!

"Look at the stars, look at the moon......," Emilia muttered, not looking back, as Phoenix exclaimed behind her.
