Chapter 49: Night Talk

Forget it, don't think about it so much. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoSince the white ghost doesn't want me to know so much, according to his character and scheming, there must be a reason for him. Although he still likes to play pranks on me, it doesn't really matter what he helped me. Let him go, and I'll go on with my exercises. So I went back to my room and started practicing in earnest.

On the other side, in Miss Catherine's boudoir, a slender figure kept walking around, and the candlelight in the room pulled the shadow, as if it were a recorder of time, and this shadow was constantly changing in length, and the master's state of mind began to be turbulent.

The room suddenly went dark, and then with a "creak", the door opened. After a moment's hesitation, Fang walked out of the room. Miss Catherine looked around, and saw that no one had noticed, so she tightened her sleeves and walked to the right side of the courtyard.

There were no guards on this road, and they had already arrived in Luo Hui City, so naturally they no longer needed such strict security protection, and there were some personnel on duty at the gate of the courtyard, and the rest of the people were either sleeping soundly in the house, or going out to fool around, and no one saw Miss Catherine's hurried footsteps in the middle of the night.

Approaching a door with a faint candlelight, Catherine stopped and began to move back and forth, as if she had not yet made up her mind. After a while, when she chose to turn around and prepare to return the way she came, a soft sigh came from the white ghost from the house, "Sister, hey, come in." ”

Catherine climbed the stairs, opened the door, and entered. The dim candlelight shines through, and it is randomly sealed, and only a hazy yellow light can be seen outside the house. It seems that the candle is picked, and the light is a little brighter.

Inside, it's a different story. Catherine sat in her chair, writhing back and forth from time to time, clearly not used to such oppressive silence. Several times I wanted to open my mouth to ask, but I was stopped by the white ghost, and the white ghost seemed to only care about carrying the wick with the wire, completely ignoring the sad look of his sister behind him. After a long time, the white ghost finally spoke, "Alin still went to look for you!"

"Brother, what's going on? Although Alin just asked me a few casual words, I know that something must have happened in this Luohui City, brother, can you tell me?"

The white ghost finally sat down, playing with a few pearls in his hand, and said unhurriedly, "It's nothing, I'm probably too tired these days, we have encountered so many things on the road, and we finally sent the tribute to this Luohui City safe and sound, as soon as I put my heart down, the whole person was a little too relaxed, it will be fine in a few days, don't worry." ”

Catherine didn't appreciate it, stood up and walked in front of the white ghost, pulled her hands tightly, and looked a little excited, "Brother, I'm not a child anymore, I can accept anything." Don't look at me like that, I'm the daughter of Ujes City, and I'm much braver than you think. ”

The white ghost smiled suddenly, nodded with satisfaction, pressed Catherine to the chair, turned around and walked a few steps, and turned around sharply, "You are very good, sister, you are indeed smarter and more attentive than I thought, and you are more brave and strong. ”

"Then brother tell me quickly, I won't tell anyone. ”

"Really, what about Arin?" the white ghost teased his sister playfully, a weird smile on his face.

"Of course it's true, Alin, Arin, of course I won't tell him. Catherine was a little shy about being taken care of.

"Okay, okay, in fact, it's not a big deal to tell him, it's just that he's still too weak, although he is a little smart, but after all, his magic ability is too weak, if he gets involved in this crisis, I'm afraid it will be dangerous, and he will even be sacrificed. ”

"Huh?" Catherine panicked and hurried her brother.

"Do you remember the high-flying prince we met at the gate when we first entered the city?" After receiving an affirmative answer, the white ghost began to analyze, "This prince's name is Sharif Kathy, the grandson of the current King of the Casey Empire, and his father is the eldest prince Dorne Kathy, that is, the victorious general who has many military achievements and has fought against the Carter Empire in the northern Collins theater for many years. ”

"I know that General Dorne is a great hero, he guards the northern part of his country. Oh, brother, go on, I won't interject. ”

Seeing his sister sticking out his tongue mischievously, the white ghost smiled helplessly, "Originally, the heir of this empire should be this eldest prince, but the eldest prince has been fighting in the north all the year round, and the old king's health is getting weaker and weaker, why didn't he summon this eldest son back, but handed over the affairs of governing everything to the second prince Ariv Kaithi? In the past few years, as far as I know, the eldest is far inferior to the second prince in the ability to govern the country, and most importantly, in this Luohui City, the second prince's power is naturally greater." ”

"But so what, what does it have to do with us?" said Catherine, her eyes wide, puzzled.

"Hehe, you don't understand the twists and turns in politics, you are naturally pure-minded. How I wish I could be like you, sister. The white ghost sighed to himself, and then said, "This Sherif Kathy is so arrogant, but what is the attitude of the guards guarding the city, it is all stammering and flattery written on their faces, it is obvious that the power of the princes in this Luohui City has been reversed. ”

"If you change it, you change it, whoever becomes the king is not the same as Cathy's blood? Even if the second child becomes the king, it is not bad for the boss to be a general." Catherine replied innocently.

"Hehe, how can it be so simple! A beast that has already tasted its prey will give away its prey? Sooner or later, two tigers will fight!"

"So what's the matter with us?"

"If you think about it, when we paid tribute today, although the city of Uls is not a big place, but the blood of the two of us is pure Kaishi, and it should be the second prince to receive it. It is understandable that the old king is ill and does not see guests, but why is the second prince, who is in the prime of life, also sick in bed? How can he be sick on this important day of tribute?"

"Perhaps, he's really sick?"

"If this is the case, it will be a vain worry, but I am afraid that I am pretending to be sick, or that it is not a disease, but an injury!"

Catherine also understood, exclaimed this half-open mouth, and looked at her brother in a daze. The white ghost had already stood up, and then picked up the candle flame that was about to burn out, trying to make the candle brighter. The oblique figure was pulled on the ground, and the scene was extremely strange.

With a "snap", the candle flame finally ended its mission in a high-profile posture after burning out its last life. A new candle came from the side, igniting the last of the candle's light, and then pressed hard, and the new candle crushed the glimmer of the candle, and replaced it with a new light.

"Go back and keep things in mind, maybe it's just me talking about it. The white ghost turned his head, and in the new candlelight, his white hair shone brighter, and his eyes looked older.

"Let's go back, it's not early, rest early!"
