Abides felt the aroma of wine on his lips and teeth, and he tasted several of the fruit ingredients that were abundant in their Northland. Sea pear fruit, snow melon, red cherry blossom and so on are all common fruits, these fruits have different characteristics and different tastes, most people will not want to combine these kinds of fruits together, and no one will mix them with southern fruits to make wine.

Tasting this fantastic wine for the first time, Abides praised: "This wine has a very peculiar taste, and you can taste a lot of fruit that is a specialty of the Northland." It's the first time I've ever seen someone combine them to make wine, and it's a great experiment. ”

The fat boss tilted his delicate mustache slightly, squinted his eyes, and said proudly: "This is a recipe left by my father's generation, and it has been improved by me to have such a wonderful taste." It's unique to our family, and I dare say that the wine in the whole of Harrens isn't as good as ours, there's no doubt about it. That's the only place you can enjoy this delicacy, so why not have another drink? ”

"Then add another glass, rare wine." Abides gulped down the rest of the glass in one gulp. Although the name of this wine is Baiguo wine, and the raw material is also fruit, it still has a high alcohol content. After a sip, the strength of the wine rushed directly to his head, and Abides couldn't help but exclaim that this was really too exciting. The fat boss poured another full glass into his glass.

"Can I ask you a question?" Abidis asked as the boss poured the wine.

"Tell me."

"I just saw the sign at the door that says 'New Dry Forest Tavern', why add a new word? Didn't you run a tavern here before? With the advantage of your wine, you should earn more in a bustling big city like Carrot. Abides took a sip from his glass, and the wine was so fragrant.

The fat boss shook his head with a smile and explained: "It was the real right decision to open here, I used to open in the territory of Baron Naxi, but the tax there is a bit high, and the one in Carrot City is even higher." The raw materials needed to make wine are already expensive, and if we pay a high tax to open a tavern, we may not make enough money to support ourselves. But it's different here, Rand is a newly built town, there are many preferential policies here, I am the first new residents to come, we can have a lot of money left here, even the house is given away for free. With Lord Kane and Lady Carney in charge, we're doing a great job. ”

"Is this a newly built city-state, and it's no wonder that there are still traces of new buildings in many places. It's hard to imagine that such a town could be newly built, looking more prosperous and wealthy than the domains of some old barons, or even viscounts, and the lords here are so powerful that they have grown the tavern so quickly in such a short time. Abidis said in amazement.

The fat boss nodded in agreement: "Lord Kane is a very great lord, I heard that he was once a commoner, but he got a knighthood by virtue of his exploits on the battlefield, it is really amazing. I don't know if you heard about what happened to Harrence a few months ago, the black market and the dynasty fought, and Lord Kane participated in that war, and he made a lot of achievements, maybe it was the knighthood obtained in that war. The boss didn't lower his voice in the slightest, but was still a little proud, feeling sincere admiration for the young lord.

Abidis drank and listened to the boss's story, and became interested in the young and powerful lord in the boss's mouth, "Listening to you say this, this lord is really very remarkable, if you have the opportunity, I really want to see this lord with my own eyes." I wonder where he lives? ”

The boss was just about to open his mouth to answer, when another strong man who looked like a dusty man came to the stage, "I want a glass of Longwill wine." He said in a gruff voice, then took a silver coin from his pocket and pressed it against the wooden platform with a clang. The boss was about to say something but he interrupted him, and after he said sorry, he turned to pour another glass of Longway.

While waiting, Abdides observed the guest sitting next to him. Rough and bearded, with a cold look in his eyes, he doesn't look like an ordinary person. In addition, Abides carefully observed that he had a lot of calluses on his mouth and several scars on the back of his hands. Looks like a veteran of the perennial war, Abides thought to himself.

As he surveyed the man, the other noticed his gaze, and he stared back at Abides. Abides, who was discovered, was not embarrassed, he smiled at the man with a friendly smile, raised his glass and said to the man, "The fruit wine here is very good, you can try it." ”

The man nodded, not looking at him too much, just treating him as a drinker who had come here to drink. The boss held a large glass of Longway wine in front of the man, and reached out to grab the silver coin. Then he said to Abides, "I'm sorry just now, where did we come from?" ”

"I ask you where the great Lord Kane lives, and if you have the chance, you can pay a visit, after all, it is very admirable for such a young and accomplished lord." Abidis said with a smile to the boss.

The man's hand shook suddenly, and a little wine spilled from the glass, and he continued to drink as if nothing had happened. But this subtle movement was keenly noticed by Abides, who was even more curious about the old soldier who had come to the tavern to drink alone late at night, and that being alone at night must have had some purpose, just like him.

"Lord Kane's home lives east of Rand Town, near the budding dead woods. The little manor with the flower garden is his home, and you go east along it, cross a bridge, and you can see it on a small dirt slope. The goose-yellow flower beds are a very eye-catching symbol, and they are expected to bloom even more beautifully when spring approaches. "The owner told Abides in detail the specific address and directions.

"Thank you very much for your help, I will definitely visit him if I have the opportunity."

"You're welcome, guests from afar. You can ask the lord's address here, and if you can't find it, you can ask people passing by along the way. ”

"Of course, but thank you very much. Add me a glass of fruit bar, this wine is really addictive the more I drink it, and the taste is so wonderful. Abides raised his glass, which was empty again, and the boss smiled and refilled it.

The silent man drank all the wine in the glass, and as soon as the boss put the copper coin settled for him on the table, the man grabbed it and put it in his pocket, and then went out.

This strange behavior made the boss a little confused, came to the bar late at night and asked for a glass of wine and left after drinking, he didn't say much, and he didn't come to play, judging from his behavior, he was really a weirdo. Abides glanced back at the man who had hurried out, pretended to look at the time, and then said goodbye to his boss and went out.

After Abydius went out, he took out a magic wand in the dark night, and with a flick of it, a snaking and flowing magic trace appeared on the dark ground in front of him, and this fluorescence extended to the corner of the street in front of him. This is their mage's exclusive magic detection technique, which is very helpful for tracking the whereabouts of others, and ordinary people and even some warriors and knights who are not strong and have no contact with magic can not find this kind of secret method.

He followed the trail all the way, and on the way he happened to meet the patrolling guards, and Abides looked straight and unusual. The guards only glanced at him lightly, did not come forward to inquire about him, did not feel suspicious, and walked over like this. The reason why they walked so safely was because they believed that the suspicious figure had been caught by the guards guarding the front door before entering, and even if they were lucky enough to avoid the first wave of guards at the front door, it would be difficult for them to escape the detection of the magic circle set up by Nerich, a friend of Lord Kane.

It's really not careful enough, and the guards in this city are inevitably too loosely guarded. Abides said in his heart.

After some distance, he finally saw the figure of the man in a hurry not far from the bridge, and although the moonlight was limited and his vision was not clear, Abides recognized him at a glance.

Abidis knew in her heart, and sure enough, it was similar to what he had guessed. He kept a distance from him, didn't follow too closely, and followed so far away, so as not to startle the snake.

But the man was very vigilant, and from time to time he looked back to the left and right, and Abides had the blessing of magic, and under the blessing of the night, he did not attract his attention at all, and he did not notice that Abides was following him along the way.

After crossing the bridge, the two of them walked a long way, and in the faint night light, if a sharp-eyed person saw the situation of the two of them in the back at this moment, he would definitely be frightened. For Abidades followed the man, like a ghost chasing after him.

Walking up the small dirt slope that the boss said, the man saw the small manor lying quietly in the dark from a distance, and there was a faint goose-yellow light, and the man guessed that it must be the flower garden that the boss said.

The man stood on the small dirt slope, as if his heart had been confirmed, and he did not step forward again, but turned and walked somewhere else. Abydeus was secretly watching his movements, and the man returned to the vicinity of the Rand Center. He avoided the sight of the patrolling guards, and when they were far away, he passed through a densely populated area and through a hidden alley.

Out of this narrow space, a horse was tied under a fruit tree, and he stood there like a sculpture. Even when the owner came, it still didn't make a sound to attract the attention of the people around it. The man stroked the horse's neck, then climbed into the saddle and turned over on the horse. He pulled the reins, and the horse swung his head, and then walked as quietly as he could into the woods.

This time Abides didn't follow him again, but walked around the neighborhood to see what was going on, and this time his wandering finally caught the attention of the guards, but he really didn't have any bad intentions, just just strolling. After a brief questioning by the guards, he was left to wander around alone.

Abydes went to a plaza, which was so well restored that there was no sign of a cruel dark sacrifice under the moonlight, and even the remaining traces of magic had been erased.

"There's really no trace left, it's not easy to find a place like this, it's a pity." Abides said to herself, and he was alone here until dawn.

When the sun rose, he sat in front of a restaurant eating breakfast, coarse bread and grilled meat, and a glass of wine. While he was enjoying his meal, a young man on horseback walked slowly past him, and someone greeted the man on the horse warmly, and he replied to them enthusiastically.

From these mouths, Abydes finally saw the young lord - Kane. Sivir!
