Chapter 54: A Strange Disease

"Attend the Sahara Flame Conference?" was that Blackbeard's idea?" Tiana asked, looking back at the report in her hand, frowning slightly, and a little confused. (For the latest chapter reading, please visit)

"Sounds interesting, I'd like to hear your opinion. El shrugged his shoulders, picked up the teacup on the table, poured the hot tea into his mouth in one gulp, and pouted subconsciously. Every time I came to the girl's tent to discuss things, I was always served with a cup of hot tea. Over time, he was gradually able to appreciate the gap in the sense of mouth, and from the quality of the tea, he could almost judge how the girl was feeling today.

Today's tea leaves are not fully brewed, and apparently she is upset by the recent losses of the exile ranks.

"I don't think it's a good idea, the brownland hills are their territory after all, and we're not familiar with the rules of the game here. Tiana put the quill in her mouth and muttered for a moment, "And I don't trust that Blackbeard, who is said to be the most treacherous bandit leader in the South, and not a word that comes out of his mouth can be trusted. I think Lolana should be left to deal with him. ”

"Lolana is trying to find a way to exorcise the curse on Palanti, the kind of voodoo puppet that is not lethal but can manipulate Palanti's body, which is tantamount to turning her into a hostage at Blackbeard's hands. El shook his head and said helplessly, "I didn't let Blackbeard show up to prevent Blackbeard from probing our details, but after hearing about this, Lolana means that we can wait and see." ”

"Wait and see?" Tiana repeated the word, a look of understanding flashed in her eyes, "The ghost wolf wanted to borrow a knife to kill, but Blackbeard simply surrendered to us. As long as Blackbeard is alive, his influence in the land will not dissipate. If the ghost wolf wants to be rightfully ascended, there will definitely be further action...... For example, take us to the knife?"

"I wish he had thought so, so that we could solve this problem once and for all. El smiled confidently.

"Did Blackbeard reveal any specific information?" asked Tiana, looking up.

According to him, several of the great men of the South have now been united, including Roger, the wolf, Groom, the two bandits, the smuggler 'Gold Taper', and the leader of the gravediggers, the Poison Widow. The combined strength of these men can reach at least about 2,000, and they will inevitably pose a threat to us...... But I doubt the authenticity of this number. ”

El pursed his lips and said disapprehantly: "Just look at Blackbeard's fearless appearance, he must have hidden the hole cards that can make a comeback, and the others are not easy to think about." [Debut]"

"It seems that we can only wait and see what happens...... If Lolana is done with things over there, please ask her to come over. Tiana put her hands on her chest, crossed her fingers, and smiled helplessly: "I have to admit that she is indeed more professional than the two of us in some aspects." ”

"Do you mean a trick or a conspiracy?" El asked amusefully.

"There's an elegant way of saying it's called insight into people's hearts. Tiana said.

When the party departed, El returned to the camp, just in time to see the old merchant Jupiter come out with a grim face, and it seemed that he had just had a quarrel, and the object of the quarrel was self-evident.

Since Lolana woke up from her slumber, she has been acting strangely. She hid in the carriage all day and rarely went out except for work. Even when he comes out for activities, he always wears a thick hooded cape, wraps himself tightly, and only reveals two big eyes that are dripping and spinning, like a witch in a fairy tale.

The old businessman's concern for his daughter was beyond words, but Lolana's attitude has always been lukewarm, and her father is like a passerby, meeting only nodding and greeting, without any intimacy. Not only that, but she is also very indifferent to the guys in the business house who grew up together, and when they occasionally meet, they don't even bother to say hello, or even simply turn a blind eye.

George told El in private that the eldest lady seemed to be a different person, and El felt the same way. I don't know if it is a psychological shadow left after experiencing death, in his impression of the image of the eldest lady who is a little eccentric and empathetic, who likes to wear school uniforms and carry a small schoolbag, has disappeared unconsciously.

"This kid has really changed, and I can't even recognize him. Jupiter said with a dejected face: "I watched her grow up little by little, and I knew that she liked to read, so I sent her to school...... Who knew she was going to be like this? She had just said to me -- go back if you had nothing to do, Ludern was on top, and I was her father! How could she talk to me like that?"

"Don't worry, you know she's so badly injured that she almost died...... Maybe it will come back after a while. El comforted him, but even El himself didn't believe it. If you want to say that the eldest lady is psychologically slender, it is a big joke, looking at her current state, she should be thankful not to bring psychological shadows to others.

"I hope so...... Actually, my lord, there's one thing I'm too embarrassed to say. The expression on Jupiter's face was entangled for a long time, and he hesitantly lowered his voice and asked, "You live together now, do you have ...... That?"

"Which one?" Elvey looked at Jupiter inexplicably, and only then did he suddenly react at the signal of the old merchant's eyes, and could not help but exclaim with shame and indignation, "What are you thinking?

"I know, I know. Jupiter nodded disapprecriminately, with an expression on his face that you don't need to explain what I understand: "Do you remember that grandfather that Lolana recognizes, that old thing from Powell? It's a pity that he has to guard his workshop and is unwilling to leave...... He had told me before that he had to find a man for Lorana as soon as possible, otherwise by the time she reached adulthood, her illness might be uncontrollable. ”

"What strange illness needs to be solved by doing that kind of thing?" El asked with a smirk.

"Like now...... I don't remember that word very well, it seems to be called parasitism? In short, the change will get bigger and bigger, unless there is a man to moisten it......" Jupiter's old face was flushed, and from his position as a father, it was really a little shameless to say this, but it was a matter of his daughter's life, and his old face could only be let out.

"Is that really the case?" El stared at Jupiter in shock, not knowing what to say for a moment. At this time, he also recalled that Master Stephen and Master Powell had both vaguely mentioned this matter, specifically meaning that he should get Lolana done as soon as possible. It's just that at that time, El thought they were joking and didn't take it seriously at all.

"Does Lolana know about this herself?" El asked cautiously, just in case.

"The disease is on herself, and of course she knows it. That's what I've been telling her about the past two days. Jupiter sighed and said with a sad face: "This child is not in a hurry at all, and I don't know what she thinks. ”

"Then it's really not wrong for you to be blasted out. The corners of El twitched and patted Jupiter's shoulder and said, "Okay, I see, which means I have to do it to your daughter now, right?"

Jupiter looked at El pitifully, and wanted to nod his head out of reason, but from his father's standpoint, "Please do the trouble to my precious daughter at once!"

The two men looked at each other silently for a moment, and Jupiter let out a long sigh and nodded vigorously.

Although the voices of the two people were somewhat controlled, they could not be muffled, and with Luo Lana's ability, it was not difficult to overhear the sound from more than ten meters away.

By the time El approached, the door of the carriage had been closed tightly, and there was a faint sound of it being locked inside. Apache the kobold and the head chef of the grey goblin crouched outside the carriage, holding hay dolls that were about to be torn apart, pretending to be absorbed in their research, but their ears were half-propped up and trembling slightly.

"Open the door, I'll come and see Palanti. El walked over to the carriage and knocked on the door.

"Palanti hasn't woken up yet. Lorana's pretended calm voice squeezed out of the crack in the door.

"Then wake her up now, I have something to ask her. El cheekily continued.

"It's not a gentleman's behavior to bully an injured girl like this. Lorana's tone became a little strange, and it sounded as if there was something in the words.

"Don't make a fuss, Lorana, we need to talk. Knowing that he couldn't fool this little fox, the team was about to leave, and El didn't have time to compete with her, so he simply got straight to the point.

There was a click, as if some lock had been unscrewed on the door, and a gap opened slightly, revealing half of Lorana's face and a strand of long orange-red hair, and her vigilant eyes were like a fried cat.

"If you want to ask about that, don't worry, I can take care of myself. Lolana whispered from behind the door.

"Are you sure, Lorana?" El asked earnestly, looking into the girl's eyes.

"My father was just a businessman and he didn't understand what was going on with me. Luo Lana shook her head, and a standard commercial smile appeared on her face: "Don't worry, if I really need it, I won't be cheap for other men, dear junior brother." ”

Looking at the girl's smiling appearance, El nodded on the surface, but his heart became heavier and heavier. With his understanding of the girl, if the problem was really as simple as she said, she would not be so secretive.

Growing up, he had never heard of a strange disease that could be cured by rolling a sheet, and if such a thing had happened, even if it was just to catch the wind, it would have been made up by the bard and spread in the taverns.
