Chapter 45: Marcus the Old Beggar
Loxani said with a disdainful expression: "Old man in cowhide, how do you want to fool our family Lance? I don't think you are sick?"
"Loxani! Don't be so rude. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Lance scolded Loxani.
Loxani heard Lance say himself so fiercely, so he flew to the side not far away, turned around, and said angrily:
"Cut! Kindness is regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs. If you like to talk to crazy people, talk to crazy people. Princess Ben is not waiting to see her. ”
Lance also shook his head helplessly, this white dragon princess really needs to teach her etiquette. But then again, although Lance didn't know what medicine was sold in the old beggar Marcus's gourd, Lance's curiosity still drove him to listen:
"Grandpa Marcus, don't be angry. Roxani is this quick temper, don't be surprised. ”
"I'm not going to deal with a pet. ”
Then I heard Roxani scolding in the corner: "Who's a pet? You're a pet! Your whole family is a pet!"
But Marcus turned a deaf ear and completely ignored Roxani. He pulled an iron ring out of his pocket. The ring is not luxurious, it is neither gold-plated nor set with gemstones. The iron ring is simply engraved with a laurel logo.
The old beggar Marcus grabbed Lance's right hand and placed the ring in his hand. Lance hurriedly excused himself and said, "Grandpa Marcus, what are you?"
The old beggar Marcus shoved the ring into Lance's hand, and then said with a hint of command, "Take it! The ring will be yours from this day on." ”
"But this is your ring, not mine, how can I take it. And you still beg for a living. I can't even ask for it. ”
"Take it for me!" ordered the old beggar with a hint of anger, completely losing the kind expression of the storyteller before, and even a little fierce:
"Old beggar, although I beg for a living, I don't take what is not given to me. This ring is not for the old beggar, but for me. 19 years ago, a life-and-death companion who was on an adventure with me gave me this ring. He said that if anyone could sit still and listen to my stories and fully believe what I was saying, then give him the ring. Today this ring is yours from head to toe. ”
As he spoke, the old beggar Marcus prepared to turn and leave. When he walked up to Lance, who was still looking at the ring in his hand with a puzzled and puzzled expression, the old beggar Marcus raised his voice and said:
"Young man, just think of it as a gift from me to you, an old beggar. When you're unlucky, you take this ring with you. Then good fortune will come to you. Ha ha. ”
With that, the old beggar Marcus smiled and walked away. Only Lance, who was still in the corner looking at the ring in his hand with a surprised expression.
"What did the old man tell you?"
Seeing the old beggar Marcus walk away, the white dragon princess Roxani hurriedly flew over and landed on Lance's right shoulder.
However, Loxani also saw the ring in Lance's palm, and she asked curiously, "Where did you get this ring?" ”
Lance nodded, let out a long breath, and said, "That's right, he also said that wearing this ring will bring me good luck." ”
When Loxani heard this, she let out a "poof" and laughed: "Others say that lucky rabbit feet, lucky charms and the like can bring good luck. But so far, in my opinion, it's all a lie. You don't even have the prefix 'lucky' in this ring, haha, I think it's even more unreliable. Or could this Marcus be so lucky to be a beggar? ”
"I think you're right, but it's a kindness from someone else. If people are kind, don't be sarcastic, you have to be forgiving and forgiving. With that, Lance put the ring on his right index finger, then patted the ring with satisfaction and said, "What I need now is good luck!"
Loxani looked disgusted: "Cut, are you still unlucky? If you are unlucky, you will die three times along the way! If you are unlucky, can you sign a contract with a beautiful, beautiful, intelligent, and wise white dragon princess like me?"
Lance touched his chin and nodded, "Well, what you said is not unreasonable. ”
Hearing this, Loxani looked proud and proud: "Right!"
Lance said solemnly, "That's right, I've had good luck along the way. Not only did he get out of danger several times. And I met beautiful, pretty, smart, wise ...... Veronica. But when I met such a fierce and unreasonable dragon girl as you, I was unlucky to be home, and this is the balance of the world. Look up, who have the gods spared?"
When Loxani heard this, she immediately jumped up angrily: "You! I hate ghosts! You actually say that about me! I am sorry that I rushed to the front line so many times in front of you in order to save you! I hate you to death! Hmph! I ignore you!"
As she spoke, the white dragon princess Roxani flew to the corner of the wall and remained motionless.
Lance seemed to be crying when he saw Roxani's appearance. Lance felt like he was joking. In fact, along the way, it is true that Locksani is in front of him every time regardless of the danger. Being able to get here safely is also a credit to Loxani.
So Lance walked up to Loxani, crouched down, and said softly in a low voice, "Is Loni little Lorney angry?"
"You have to take care of it! Anyway, I made you so disgusted and disgusted! Why do you still want to talk to me!"
Lance heard that Loxani's voice did feel like crying, but he just held back. It is estimated that tears were already rolling in Loxani's eyes at this time:
"Little Ronnie, Your Highness the Princess, don't be angry. It's me wrong in front. You're not fierce or unreasonable. I'm kidding. Actually, you are the cutest and bravest of our squad. Your courage tossed me off ten roads. ”
After listening, Loxani's big head slowly turned, only to see her aggrieved face, and her royal blue eyes flashed with tears. Loxani sobbed, and although her tone was a little disbelieving, her eyes were expectant, "Are you telling the truth?"
Lance hurriedly patted his chest and said, "Of course it's true!" I swear. Think about it, when the orc wolf cavalry was in front of us, didn't you just stand in front of us, and drank back those wolf warriors who wanted to treat us as snacks? And the banshee, don't you also rush up to fight even though you can't fight? If it weren't for you, I guess you would have been torn into countless pieces of meat by the wolf warriors and eaten into your stomach. I guess by the next day, I'll be a primitive trap. ”
"Primordial trap, what's that?" Loxani was immediately attracted by this.
Lance said seriously: "It's dung! Think about it, every time you walk on the road, you unconsciously step on the poop, and then you are in a bad mood for a day." Isn't this a powerful trap? And it's pristine and natural. ”
Loxani smiled helplessly and said, "All right! It's a cold joke! It's not funny at all. ”
Lance touched the back of his head and said with a smile: "It's not funny, it's nothing, I'm relieved to see that your vitality is back." Forgive me. Don't be angry. ”
The White Dragon Princess Loxani snorted, then turned her head arrogantly and said, "Seeing that you have said so many good things, you are naturally not angry. But as for forgiving you or not, let's see. ”
"Okay, my eldest princess! ”
At this moment, there was a "creaking" sound behind Lance from the heavy wooden door of the chapel, and it seemed that many people had come in. The church became lively, and at the same time a familiar voice was heard:
"Lance!"
