Chapter 671: Ranch was asked about the pigeon

The two crossed a street and came to the downtown business district in the center of Posen Huadu.

"Meow, it's so handsome, this street."

The cat boss in Lanch's hand looked at the city's grand scene in the morning, and couldn't help but stand up with starry eyes.

"Indeed, across this street, you will almost reach the Petras Auction House."

Ranch looked at the cat boss and smiled.

This Crystal Orchid Avenue is located on the central axis of the Platinumson Palace and the new pilgrimage gate, also known as the Pilgrimage Avenue, which is one of the three prosperous central streets in the South Continent, and is also known as the Top Ten Charming Pedestrian Streets in the South Continent.

It traverses the main east-west road of Parrieux, the capital of Posen, with a total length of 1,800 meters and a maximum width of more than 120 meters, starting from the Place de la Rosary in the east and reaching the Place de la Stars in the west.

Every year on August 24, the Posen National Day military parade is held on this avenue.

"A few hundred years ago it was a swampy field, but it was transformed into a tree-lined avenue by Queen Posen's then."

Lanch said, pointing to open buildings, tall buildings, and plazas in the distance.

Therefore, in that era, Crystal Orchid Boulevard was known as the "Queen's Boulevard".

The history of the evolution of the Crystal Orchid Boulevard is closely linked to the history of the municipal development of the flower capital of Paglieu.

According to the history of Posen, the real beginning was 300 years ago, in order to expand the vision of the royal rose garden, the royal gardener extended the east-west axis of this garden to the west to the dot square, and then there was the prototype of the avenue.

"Its basic planning is actually very reasonable, and it is precisely because of this that it has the current formation, the first section is dominated by natural scenery, on both sides is a flat park-like lawn, quiet and peaceful, and the last section is a high-end business district, where famous brands, clothing stores, and perfume stores in the southern continent are concentrated, and the fire trees and silver flowers are graceful and luxurious."

"How do you still know this?"

She had also read Professor Polao's Modern History of the Kingdom of Posen, which wrote about the completion of Crystal Orchid Street, but not as much as Lanch.

Compared to what he saw in the book, most of the content was more like what he judged from his observations on the spot.

"If you go to the Northern Continent, I have my heart for the latest municipal plan of Helrom, the imperial capital of Protos."

With a hint of mischievous smile in his face, Ranch begins his story.

"It seems that you do have good connections, and you have two brushes."

Taria's words fell softly in her ears.

Ranch would not be at all surprising in every way.

At least the painting part, she still approves of it, and can paint her so beautifully.

"It is said that at five o'clock in the afternoon, if you walk to the high-lying park, you can follow this road unobstructed by any buildings and watch the enchanting sunset over the western horizon."

Ranch looked at the cascading eaves on the other side, and at the topography of the road that was rising in the center of the city in this direction.

"Oh."

Talia just replied casually.

As if I heard it, but as if I didn't hear it.

There is no "want to go" or "don't want to go" opinion.

The two watched the sunset together, this kind of suspiciously ambiguous thing, she wouldn't do it with Lanqi.

Unless it's for the sake of training tacit understanding, you have to go.

Ranch narrowed and smiled.

It's like reading Talia's thoughts.

"Boss Cat, do you want to see the sunset?"

He looked down and touched the cat's head,

"If Tata doesn't want to go, let's go."

“……”

Talia heard Lanchi's words, and the veins in her forehead trembled.

She knew that Lanch did it on purpose.

"Meow!"

Before the cat boss could answer, it was snatched from Lanchi by Talia.

"Boss Cat is with me."

Taria's words were as cold as steel.

Ranch looked at her empty-handed, stunned.

It's like asking her if you can't afford to play.

"You tug and pull, don't pull meow."

Boss Cat sighed helplessly.

The two of them chatted from time to time.

It's noisy at times.

Came to the intersection.

Towering plane trees stood, their leaves shining in the morning light, like emeralds embedded in the streets.

The sun had risen and the sky was a soft light blue.

A short wait for the traffic lights.

Ranch spotted Talia's gaze across the road.

Slightly confused, he followed Taria's gaze.

Twice across the street and her face before she was sure what she was paying attention to.

On the other side of the street, the goods displayed in the windows, from haute couture to delicate jewelry, were slowly walked by by a well-dressed rich man, his gentle steps resembling choreographed dance steps.

Behind him, the demons dressed in simple but neat clothes respectfully followed, carefully holding several richly decorated shopping boxes in both hands, keeping their balance and following behind.

Although the weight of this shopping bag is not small, the demons have no complaints, only respect.

The bracelet in the hand of the demon clan is a symbol of its subordination.

Ranchi looked at Talia again, and saw that she had looked away, no longer staring at the image that made her feel like something was wrong.

"Actually, this is not special in the flower capital of Parrieu."

Ranch looked at the traffic light and said to Talia beside her.

As a cosmopolitan city, the city of Paglieu also faces challenges common to modern cities, such as the integration of immigrants.

"I know."

She is well aware that times have changed.

This fact had been accepted many times before she came to the Posen Kingdom.

It's just that the work contract is fine, but if she sees the demons becoming slaves of humans, she will feel a little uncomfortable.

But there's nothing to complain about, because the demons who sign a slave contract are either atoning for their sins, or for some reason they have sold their time and labor in exchange for a lot of money.

In the kingdom of Posen, the vast majority of contracts are fair.

The signal light changed, and the two walked forward with the little black cat.

"What's wrong? Tata, do you want me to help you win a championship too? Like Duke Miyas? ”

Ranch seemed to read her thoughts, and looked at her with some interest.

Although the purpose of the foundation is different, Miss Evatia likes to watch the excitement, and Talia likes to give freedom to the demons, but as long as the goal is achieved, the high and low can release a potential demon, and after being worthy, no matter how much money it is, there will be powerful people willing to redeem themselves for the champion and sign a more equal business contract.

"I'm not the kind of woman who needs a man to please me, and no matter how much you try to please me, I won't smile at you more."

Talia stared at him and replied blandly and slightly indifferently.

On the one hand, seek truth from facts.

On the other hand, she couldn't see Lan Qi's tea smell overflowing to test her.

"Also, you're happy when I feed you, but you don't smile......"

Lanch shook his head.

Before he finished speaking, he didn't dare to say anything more, because Tata was already watching him.

"I'm really curious about one thing."

Talia frowned at him for a few moments, then finally asked.

She wasn't angry this time.

I don't want to worry about him anymore.

She was just suddenly really curious.

"You say."

Ranch replied with a sigh of relief.

"Why didn't you wantonly provoke me when I first saw you?"

Talia stared at him like the question had been bothering her many times lately,

"I think according to your character, you should say something that makes me unbearable from then on, but on the contrary, as if you foresaw my danger, you changed your mind and slowly got acquainted with me first."

Her voice fell, her eyes still fixed on Lanchi's face.

"Meow."

The cat boss is also curious.

After following Ranchi for so long, he has discovered that Ranchi's death-loving personality dooms wine to Ranchi like poison, but he will become addicted to it.

And Talia is also a kind of alcohol-like thing to Ranchi, which can make him delirious, dangerous and addictive, and he obviously can't resist it.

It's hard to say if it's because of Talia's addiction or if he uses Talia as his new drink and necessities.

"Maybe it's because I happened to break into the temple of the goddess of fate that day, and the goddess of fate made me have a dream about how to approach you?"

Ranch thought about it for a moment, and calmly met her gaze.

Hans said that he had no memory of drinking the fragments, and that the day before he met Tata, he had stumbled into the Church of the Goddess of Fate led by Namvantina, and accidentally knocked a gem off the statue of the goddess, causing a lot of trouble for the priests.

Fortunately, the noble and benevolent priests did not care about his mistakes, saying that it was a kind of fate.

The divinity of the goddess of fate, as the priests believed, was that as long as the people of man prayed to the goddess of fate, she had the right to interfere with fate slightly, and the more devout and long she prayed, the more the voice of her heart would be transmitted to her, and the oath to each god must not be said nonsense, whether these gods still exist or not, and whether they can interfere with the world, may bear cause and effect.

Therefore, according to legend, there is a kind of talisman called reincarnation jade.

It could be any stone associated with the Goddess of Fate, as long as it is used as a medium, the gods can weakly interfere with the world from the conceptual side.

And the reincarnation treasure jade is a gift from a destined person, if you pray sincerely to the goddess of fate, she may let you have a sweet dream, maybe by chance, maybe it is an old dream.

But after all, this kind of thing is mysterious and mysterious, and it cannot be proven, so it is more regarded as a legend and a fairy tale.

According to Huber Ann's idea.

She felt that she was Miss Witch in her previous life, and Lan Qi was a child of the sun in her previous life, and of course they could be reincarnated in other worlds to experience a wonderful middle life two lives ago, all of which were gifts from the goddess of fate.

So.

It is possible that he accidentally touched the divine stone of the Goddess of Fate Church, which allowed him to get a lot of revelations from the Goddess of Fate and give him some information that is enough to change the future.

Of course, it doesn't matter to someone like him who doesn't believe in reincarnation.

He only thinks that the Child of the Sun is a flower similar to himself tens of thousands of years ago, and they have no direct connection, and the same is true for Miss Witch and Huberian.

The essence of reincarnation is the repetition of history, through which the world is constantly annihilated and reborn.

There are always similar people and stories after a long period of time.

If you believe, you will have, and if you don't believe, you will not.

How you think – that's what it is.

“……”

Talia was silent for a long time.

"Is that so...... No wonder you know as prophetically as the Prophet about the disappearance of Duke Meyya. ”

She listened to Lanchi's heart and muttered to herself.

Huberian and Ranch had already shared information with her about Duke Miyaya and the Bloodline.

She was sure that Ranch hadn't lied to them.

At the same time, he has not explored the secrets of Lanchi.

It is not strange that prophets, soothsayers, and future visions are in this world, but few living beings hold them.

[Fate] is the realm of the gods that cannot be reached by living beings, and [Divination] is the extreme realm that can be reached by the creatures gifted by the gods.

If a divination demon like Planai could grow up for a few hundred more years, maybe their demon clan wouldn't have lost in the first place.

If it is obtained from the goddess of fate, everything can be explained.

"How do you manage to know so many secrets and yet be able to see their deeper secrets so lightly? If Huberian were you, she would have been so confused that she couldn't sleep all day long. ”

Talia asked again.

She could hear what was going on in Lanchi's heart, and she could see the fragments of the story recorded in the [Records of Calliera].

"I don't have much interest in theology or history, I prefer philosophy, aesthetics, and ethics. The only thing that matters is the present, and neither the past nor the future is worth looking into for me. ”

He explained with a smile.

“……”

Although this guy doesn't believe in God, he does look like a god stick sometimes, and this kind of thing is often called a pyramid scheme leader and a cult leader.

The period when he had just returned from the Northern Continent was at his worst.

Now it's getting better, and it's a bit like a person again.

"Have you ever thought about going to the Goddess of Destiny Church again and really asking for a piece of reincarnation treasure jade?"

Talia proposed,

"Look at what our old dreams are like."

She spoke in an almost silent way, as if in the morning mist, soft and elusive.

If it was the goddess of fate who guided the two of them together, then they might also have a special fate.

Her fate with Ranchi is not necessarily worse than that of Huber Ann and Ranchi.

"I don't believe in the goddess of fate, and I don't pray sincerely like Huberian, so I think it would be in vain to go to the temple with other purposes."

Ranch spread his hands indifferently.

"You can pass by the way."

Talia said lightly.

The police headquarters of Paris, where they had been staying last night, was very close to the famous church of Our Lady of Paris.

In the vicinity of the Church of Our Lady of Paris, there are many shrines and branches of the church in the flower capital.

It stands to reason that the church of Our Lady of Pariseux is also a place for them to check in.

It's just that it was too late yesterday, and neither of them thought about going.

"We can go to the Church of Our Lady of Paris, but the Church of Fate can go anywhere, like Ixerita."

Lanch analyzed.

"If we can have a sweet dream, don't you wonder what it will be like?"

Talia asked.

"Not curious."

Ranch shook his head and told her with a calm smile.

“……”

The cat boss listened to the two of them.

It felt like Ranch was doing it on purpose.

The two of them tugged at each other again.

Tata wanted to go a little, but she didn't particularly want to go, she preferred that Ranchi propose that the two of them go together to ask for the amulet of the Goddess of Destiny, and Ranchi knew that she wanted to go, and unless she bluntly invited Ranchi to go with her, Ranchi kept pretending to be confused.

Neither Ranchi nor Talia said anything, leaving the air at a stalemate.

"Don't you think that [Kaliera's Shadow Weaving] also has a feeling of interweaving old dreams with images, I always feel that I can use it as a material to get a talisman of the goddess of fate and add it to the card-making process."

Talia finally spoke.

As long as it is in harmony with the recipe, adding it will not reduce the success rate even if it does not increase the success rate, and the gems related to the goddess of fate always make people feel lucky in their hearts.

"Uh......"

Lanchi thought for a moment, and it felt as if it did make sense.

"Let's go to the temple later."

He compromised.

"You two are completely ......! Every time you pull to just the right place, you don't pull it, and you know exactly how to pull it to make the other party's mood subtle and not disappointed or angry! ”

Boss Cat finally couldn't bear to complain.

"What are you talking about, Boss Cat?"

Both of them looked at the cat boss who suddenly erupted.

“……”

Boss Cat feels finished, and these two people seem to be really unconscious.

They have no idea how people look and feel.

I just know that I had a lot of fun with each other.

"But I think we can run for nothing, don't expect too much."

Ranch didn't think he and Talia would see any dreams like the Children of the Sun and Miss Witch.

In the first three Blood Moon Shadow Worlds, there were no demons similar to Taria.

If I had to say, only Orion, the Misty Lord, and Esmode, the True Night, had a shadow of Talia and the Great Love Poet in them.

However, if these two great demons have descendants, they may not appear until the child of the sun dies.

At the end of the third shadow world, the two big demons were still there brothers.

Ranch had a headache when he heard this.

"It's okay, it's enough to understand from you that there was a temple of the goddess of fate when we met."

Talia actually passed by the temple of the Goddess of Fate that day, and did remember that there was some turmoil inside, but she didn't pay much attention to it, took a look and left silently.

In fact, the story of her and Ranchi had already begun that day.

"I remember that it was also that day, I lost a dark carrier pigeon, but because I finally encountered an important job and a turning point in my wandering life, I put the search for its whereabouts on hold for the time being, and I don't know if it is still doing well."

Talia muttered to herself.

Now more than a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past, a year was just a passing moment for her.

“……”

Boss Cat suddenly felt that Lan Qi's expression remained unchanged, and his heart rate soared to one hundred and eight for a while.

He seemed to be doing his best to control his thoughts, and not to show anything abnormal.

"That dark pigeon has been with me for many years, and I didn't even think about taking it for days when I was at my hardest."

Talia continued to tell the story of her past, a look of remembrance.

“……”

Ranch began to sweat profusely on his forehead.

"Why are you sweating so much?"

Talia noticed that Ranchi had been quiet for a long time without speaking to her.

"It's really a bit hot in the morning in this flower capital Parrieu, I don't feel it when I sit at home, and I feel the temperature when I come out and walk around."

Ranch took off his thin coat and put it on his hand and smiled hard.

"Oh."

Talia nodded.

She took a handkerchief from her shoulder bag, lifted it slightly, and handed it to Ranchi.

It wasn't clear if she wanted to wipe Lanchi's sweat or if she just wanted to lend Lanchi her handkerchief in the first place.

"Thank you."

Ranch accepted Taria's handkerchief.

"If, I mean, if the pigeon has been killed, what will happen if you catch the murderer?"

He asked.

"Huh."

Talia shook her fingers,

"I will do to the murderer what he did to my pigeon......"

Her words were so cold that they seemed to be able to lower the temperature around her, making people shudder.

"Ahaha, that's so scary, yes, you see that dessert shop across the street seems to be good, let's go buy two ice creams."

Ranch didn't dare to mention it again as if his throat was blocked, and quickly diverted the topic with a dry smile.

"Which one?"

Talia's gaze was instantly drawn in the direction Lanch was pointing.

The two began to talk intently again.

"Meow."

Boss Cat looked up at Lanchi in confusion.

Teacher Dalan, why are your hands shaking?

If this pigeon is really related to you, then you will have to send it sooner or later.
