Chapter 57: Return to Houston (Part 1)

Chapter Fifty-Seven: Back to Houston

PS: Yesterday Saturday that chapter.

"Phil, you damn bastard, stop me!"

On the long mountain road, two young men on horses were galloping one after the other, and the horses' hooves stepped over, splashing a long cloud of dust and smoke.

"You stop and let me fight, just hit it, and forget about it this time after the fight. ”

Phil, who was running in front, turned his head when he heard this, looked at the angry appearance of Mino who was following far behind, laughed and grimaced, and then slapped the horse's butt under his crotch at once, and the horse's speed suddenly sped up a lot.

"Go dream, the ghost will stop, you just follow and eat the ashes." As he spoke, Phil glanced at Mino's bulging heavy package and revealed a big wicked smile, "But you don't forget the agreement between the two of us, Mino, whoever arrives late is responsible for the last backpack climb!"

With that, Phil laughed again, and then rode away.

Looking at Phil's back as he gradually moved away, Mino gritted his teeth in anger, and was about to pat his horse to catch up, but when he looked back at the package on his horse's back, which was almost the same height as himself, he suddenly lost his temper.

After a long time, Mino finally caught up, looking at Phil, who had tied his horse to a tree and lay on the grass for a long time eating wild fruits, Mino was angry, stepped on the stirrups, jumped up suddenly, and threw himself on Phil on the ground.

Phil, who was lying on the ground, saw Mino coming, hooked the corners of his mouth, and was about to taunt two more words, but he didn't expect Mino to want to pounce directly from the horse, and he immediately panicked, and was unable to dodge, and was pounced by Mino.

"Phil, you bastard, in order to win the bet, you actually took advantage of my inattention, and threw the package on my horse at once, do you know how precious these magic materials are, you are so littered, and you dare to mock me, and dare to let me eat ashes......"

Riding on Phil's body, Mino punched Phil and hammered at Phil, venting the anger in his heart loudly while hammering.

After Phil, who was hammered, recovered from the initial surprise, it was not that he had no ability to fight back, but he knew that he was at a loss, and there was no fighting spirit attached to Mino's fist, although the strength was not small, but Phil's full defense was not painful, so he only used his arm to block his face and let Mino beat him.

After slamming Phil, Mino's anger almost subsided, and he got up from Phil, and then evened out more than half of his horse back to Phil's horse.

Patting the dirt on his body and looking at the eye knife that Mino's handsome hand came when he let go, Phil could only watch Mino's movements and laugh wryly.

Originally, the things on this horse were half borne by two people, and the horsepower of the two horses was basically the same, which could be regarded as equal conditions.

However, they obviously learned to ride horses together, but Phil's riding skills are not as good as Mino, and when the two of them are rushing together, he always runs behind, and often asks Minoah to stop and wait for him.

has been dragging the team back like this, and Mino teasing him about this from time to time, Phil finally couldn't help it.

It happened that this time I walked in the field for many days, and finally reached the end, and the two of them also bet on who would run first, and the loser helped the winner carry things up the mountain, Phil glanced at the package that was almost half a person high, and then thought of the previous grievances, Phil's brain was hot, and he threw his share of the goods on Mino's horse before running.

So these things should have been carried by Phil, and it was his own fault in this matter, so even if Mino had a little more, he could only admit it.

Fortunately, although these things are slowing down, the weight is all borne by the horse, and it is not tiring.

Leading the horse on the main road of Houston, looking at the scenery that he saw again after more than a year, Mino's heart sighed slightly.

After the Templar trials, Mino and Phil finally became true priests under the guidance of Archbishop Mars, and King Carmont was warned by Chelsea on behalf of Kamiya, and after paying a sum of compensation, he never attacked Mino again.

There was no one else to look for trouble, and Mino himself was not a person who liked to cause trouble, so the days after that became a little more ordinary, all about daily study, cultivation, and moderate relaxation and play.

After more than a year of cultivation, Mino's Holy Light Power has reached the first-level level, and under hard cultivation, he has been able to perform several practical first-level divine techniques.

And because of the lack of concentration in cultivation and the fact that it has only broken through for a year, it is still only stagnant at the second-level peak, but with Mino's physical fitness and swordsmanship skills, even if it is a third-level peak, it can be defeated, and in the Cuilan Academy, which can graduate at the third level, it is already the top combat power among the students.

And Phil, who is a few years older than Mino, has already broken through the third level a few months ago due to the cultivation center's focus on fighting qi, and with his death scythe technique from the secret transmission of the natural avenger, his combat power is probably a little stronger than Mino.

It was precisely because of this, coupled with the fact that Mino was born in Houston County, that Mino was able to receive this special task of transporting precious materials and return to his hometown to have a look.

After all, although the things of the Supreme God Church are not so big that no one dares to rob them, there are also a lot of beasts and monsters on the way from the royal capital Cui Lan to Houston City, and if the people sent are too weak, it is impossible to say that they will be empty of people and money.

Of course, although Mino is said to be a Houstonite, he doesn't necessarily come to Houston a few times a year, and he doesn't have a sense of belonging here, at most he thinks of the scene when he set off from here more than a year ago, and he just thinks of the fact that things are wrong and wrong.

If it were true, Mino would have wanted to just run back to Tassie Town, back to the village where he had lived for many years.

It's a pity that the horses of the two have been driving for several days, so they really should have a good rest, otherwise they will be tired and lie down directly.

And Phil, the lazy fellow, finally got to the city, and finally could sleep on the grass without dry food, and he wished he could have a good rest in Houston, eat and drink, and sleep in bed.

So not to mention that the horsepower can't support it, even if the horse can still support it, it won't be easy for Mino to force him on the road.

After all, the distance between Tassie Town and Houston City is not short at all, if you force Phil to run in the field for another three days, this guy may be able to pick up the scythe and fight directly with Mino.

In desperation, Mino could only go to the church in Houston, and after verifying his identity with the identification certificate given by Archbishop Mars when arranging the mission, he asked the priest to help get some good forage for the two horses, and led them to the stable to rest properly.

As for Phil, he just threw it in the tavern and was done, anyway, he didn't have to pay for it himself, so he just let this guy play by himself.

As for Mino himself, he was not that interested, and in his boredom he took a good look back at the experience when he set out from here more than a year ago.

First of all, I went to the mercenary union and visited the girl who kindly introduced Mino to Kaguya, if it weren't for her help, maybe Mino wouldn't have had a chance to meet Kaguya.

Although more than a year had passed, the girl was still in the same position as when Mino first set off, and Mino easily found her.

Mino's face is no longer childish after experiencing life and death, and the girl didn't recognize Mino's for a while.

Fortunately, Mino's impression on this girl seemed to be quite profound, or the time was still short, and the memory was still there, and Mino said a few words about the original thing, and she recalled it, but it saved Mino the trouble of pulling out the meteorite in public and carrying it on her back.

After recognizing Mino, the girl enthusiastically pulled Mino to ask about what happened after Mino left the mercenary union, and was surprised to learn that Mino was really successful, and went to the royal capital to pass the assessment of Cui Lan Academy, and now he has become a priest.

After visiting the girl from the Mercenary Guild, Mino followed the path he had taken, turning left and right to the courtyard where Kaguya lived in Houston.

Although Kaguya no longer lives in this place, this is still the property of the Lost Chamber of Commerce, so there is still a person on duty here.

Fortunately, the badge that Kaguya gave to Mino was very powerful in the Lost Chamber of Commerce, and it seemed to be widely known, and Mino just showed the badge and was respectfully invited into the courtyard by the gatekeeper.

After walking around the courtyard, Mino found that the courtyard was actually quite small, but Mino was not very well treated by Evan at the beginning, and Kaguya didn't take special care of him, plus he focused all his attention on cultivation, so the range of activities was limited to that small area.

Why did Kaguya suddenly turn 180 degrees towards herself after being attacked by a wolf hunter?

Sitting in the room where he met Kaguya for the first time, and was amazed by the beauty that is rare in the world for the first time, looking at the place where Kaguya had sit, thinking about the person who didn't know where he was at this time, Mino's mind suddenly had such doubts again.

It's a pity that the final result is still inexplicable, even if the relationship with Kaguya is already so close, but Kaguya's heart is still the same as at the beginning, full of thick fog, which makes people can't really see everything about her.

Like the silver moon that inevitably appeared when she fought, it was beautiful, ethereal, and illusory.

After so many days of driving in the wilderness, even on horseback, Mino was already a little tired, not to mention that he had to be vigilant against the attack of wild beasts at all times, and finally relaxed and thought about it, and fell directly to the ground and fell asleep.

In his sleep, Mino saw the night of Penglai Mountain after more than a year of absence, and saw her indifferent and cold face, which seemed to be only for herself.
