"The Abino Dwarves used to live in the Ironthorn Hills, not far from here, but they have long since moved away from our continent. Ruidan was much more serious in class than Dierlando, and immediately finished speaking for him.

He lowered his head and took a closer look at the starry sky on the clock, and then said thoughtfully: "It's really interesting, this clock is estimated to be thousands of years old, and its astrology chart is not the current one." "As a high-ranking priest, Ruidan is very familiar with the stars, and after a little research, he suddenly discovered a slight difference between the star map and the current one.

"Then I'll leave it to you to solve the puzzle, and I can't help but wonder if it could be a new clue when I hear something related to time. Leaning back in his chair and sitting upright, Dearlando motioned for the people behind him to come in.

The next group of people to meet were the big businessmen of the original White Moody, and they were grateful to the weeping Baisheirado for saving his life, and they were willing to convey their hearts to their faces, no matter how much it cost.

These people originally believed that the Starlight Dragon could bring them safety and wealth, and actively donated money to Here, thus obtaining the qualification to live in the Golden Dome Palace. Unexpectedly, that bastard of Zanaya actually drugged them, knocked them out and stuffed them into the raw material warehouse of the soul furnace. If Dearrando hadn't destroyed the Soul Forge on the spot that day, these people would have died.

Shakolin's men, who arrived later that day, dug up more than 1,800 people in the huge basement, and about 1,000 of them were still breathing. In addition to the homeless, drunkards, and street thugs, there were hundreds of white Modi's big businessmen and nobles and dozens of high-ranking priests.

Although almost all of them have a lack of energy and a mess of memory, but for the fact that they are still alive. Everyone was overjoyed.

After an outburst of inconspicuous businessman rushing over with completely indiscernible agility and almost kissing Dearlandor's fingers and being punched in the jaw. Two railings were pulled between the audience and Dearlando. lest any more fanatics come near and be wounded by him as a subordinate of Fikelen.

The subsequent audience process was also sped up, and almost a group of people entered. Dearlando nodded and waved, and then replaced the next batch, and even then it took more than three hours to see everyone.

Shakolin had prepared several large rooms for storing gifts, among which gems suitable for young dragons had been sorted out separately, and a few boxes of pure magic crystals that had been collected recently were stacked in the heavily guarded vault.

After a hurried lunch, Dearrando returned to Shaklin's estate the way he came. Although Lu Yidan expressed strong protest and dissatisfaction with his following arrangement, he still couldn't resist him, and Zuihou could only find a way to secretly send someone to follow.

As soon as Diarrando returned, he was carefully disguised. He wore an eye patch, a fake beard, and an inconspicuous outfit, and his wig was too tropical to wear, but he wore a palm leaf visor that was common to White Moody. After looking in the mirror again, I thought that I should not be recognized.

Lunardino and Achille, who had been locked up in the manor for the last few days, were so happy that they almost broke the ceiling when they heard that they could go out in the afternoon. After hearing the news, Zoya, who was inevitably worried about dying, took the initiative to ask to go together. Then Aunt Rumm says she wants to buy some special spices, Dan says she wants to visit her former friend, and Lan Li knocks on her pipe and says she needs to buy some fresh tobacco.

Only Radard's target was so great that he was unanimously asked not to follow him. In this way, the shopping procession, which was originally only four people, suddenly became nine people - at the juncture of Zuihou. Fayle hurried back. As an avid researcher who wanted to eat and sleep with his dragon skeleton, he could dig him back, and Deirlandor had to wonder if Ruidan had done something.

The group went out of the manor in two small carriages through different doors. Run to your destination. There are two main open-air markets in White Modi, as they are on both sides of the river. That's why it's called the Lower South Market and the North Upper Market. Located in the mountainside cloister, the North Market sells more elaborate and more expensive items. The consumer group is also a relatively more affluent middle class. The road leading to the Xinghai Grand Theater passes through this market, so this area is almost a thriving commercial area with shopping and entertainment.

However, compared with the Beishang market, which has a clean environment and standardized management, the Xianan market is much closer to the people. From the snacks of various regions that can be eaten with a copper horn to the exotic crafts that can only be purchased for thousands of gold coins, you can find it here.

Everyone was dropped off in the alley not far from the market, and they made an appointment to wait here when they were done shopping. The crowd automatically split into several groups, with Diarlando with his three children, and Fayle following far behind. Zoya is with Lan Li and Aunt Rum, and Dan can't find a shadow when he gets out of the car.

On a long summer afternoon, all the people in the shops look a little lazy. Most of these shops are storefronts on the first floor, and people live on the second and third floors. At this moment, many people set up a comfortable recliner and took a nap comfortably in the shade or under the eaves, and the dogs and cats who guarded the door were so hot that they lay on the ground and did not want to move, only opening their eyes and glancing at random when a guest came to them.

There is a small clearing between the two or three alleys, and there are various open-air stalls in the open space, often a tent under the shade of a tree, with a blanket spread out in front. A dazzling array of goods is piled up on the stalls, waiting for visitors to choose from at will.

Wandering in the shadows of the various buildings, Dearrando introduced the interesting little shops he knew to his children, and bought tons of gifts and snacks along the way. It was the first time for the three children to see such a large commercial area, and they were going crazy, wanting everything, liking everything, and it didn't take long for everyone to have a mess of things in their hands.

While strolling through a small street garden, Luna is fascinated by the artist who sketches under the broad-leaved banyan tree. She nibbled on a caramel apple and stood next to the young man who was painting, watching curiously. The other person used colored crayons to draw portraits on the flexible cotton papyrus, and in a few minutes a vivid image appeared on the paper. Although it is mainly a simple portrait of lines and block colors, with a bit of distortion and exaggeration, the characteristics of the characters are particularly well grasped. You can tell at a glance who is drawing.

Luna watched as the painter paid the sketcher two copper coins and walked away with her portrait satisfied, and couldn't help but show a look of envy and yearning. The painter, who was free, looked at the four onlookers. He grimaced at Luna and didn't say hello. He opened the ceramic jar next to him. He threw the copper coin he had just earned, then sat down on his stool and continued to paint the small landscape that he had painted halfway before.

The little girl immediately turned her head and looked at Dierlandor expectantly with big watery eyes, and said softly: "Brother Dier, that's great! I haven't painted a portrait yet~"

Dearlando felt that although the artist's work was not so exquisite, it was very personal, so Luna stopped to look at it, but at the moment Luna begged to paint it too, but it was a bit of a headache.

It's not that he looks down on this kind of roadside painters, it's that the quality of their tools is too poor. It doesn't take long for the cheap paper to break and the crayons to fade in color. Even if you buy a painting, you can't leave it for half a year.

If you really want to paint, draw a better one, and if you can keep it for a longer time, it can be regarded as a souvenir for Luna and Achille. He looked around and remembered that there was a nice gallery nearby, so he coaxed Luna to go to the gallery and paint a miniature oil painting that he could take with him.

After passing through the street garden, he turned into a narrower alley, and finally found the humble shop at the end of the red brick alley. Although a long time has passed, the appearance of this store has not changed much. It's just that the vine moon planted at the door has climbed higher, and at this moment, the bright flowers of the trees decorate the mediocre red brick wall bright and charming.

Although the temperature is quite high. But in this small studio, there are still two or three apprentices who are engrossed in the work in hand. A towel is simply tied around the forehead to prevent the sweat rolling off the forehead from getting into the eyes and hindering the painting.

They used liquid eggs to mix the toner from the grinding of colored ores, and delicately painted tempera paintings. Works in drawing. Two are portraits and one is landscapes.

The wind chimes hanging from the screen door jingled as the door was pushed open, and a dark-haired woman in her mid-thirties heard the sound and emerged from the back of the workshop. He was still holding the fruit he was cutting.

"Ha, do you have anything you like? Buy two paintings and get one free, you can choose and match them at will. We can ...... for you too Draw portraits with your family and friends. The hostess greeted her warmly. After looking at the people, she speculated that they were two tourists from out of town because of the obvious similarities in appearance.

"Is Boss Husson there? I remember he could sketch portraits. "Dearrando visited this gallery a long time ago, and their owner has a knack for creating beautiful portraits that come to life in half an hour. However, at that time, the store was only one floor, and the owner was the only clerk inside.

"Husband, there are old customers looking for you~" The proprietress immediately raised her voice and shouted, and it didn't take long for the stairs on the second floor to hear the sound of footsteps, and a middle-aged man with a beard walked out. His brownish-red hair was tied in a short ponytail and curled up behind him, apparently napping just now, and he still had the marks of a chaise longue on his face.

"Are you ......?" Huson was stunned when he saw Diarlando, as a painter, he was particularly concerned about people's appearance. Especially for people with such excellent facial features, they will never forget it once they see it.

"Have you been here before? I think it was thirteen years ago! What is it called, Diel?"

"Yes, boss, you have a good memory! I passed by here and brought my relatives to ask you to paint a pocket portrait, the kind that can be used as a necklace pendant. Time is tight, are you free?" Dearlando admitted with a smile, then pushed Luna and Achille down in front of him, motioning for the two of them.

Luna hugged him with her backhand and coquettishly: "Do I want to paint with Brother Die~"

Dino also immediately hugged his other hand and shouted: "I want to paint too, I want to paint too!"

This kind of portrait as a necklace pendant is generally painted with one or two people at most because of the small painting area. But under the pleading of the children, they had to choose the style with paintings on both sides of the pendant. In this way, it is necessary to draw eight pictures of four people, and even the boss of Kuaishou is a little difficult.

While Deirrando haggles with his boss, Luna, Dino, and Achille each choose their favorite style among a large number of pendants. The four of Zuihou were led by Hassun to the back garden balcony, and sat down according to the artist's arrangement and waited for him to start work.

Because of her height and composition, Luna and Dino sat on opposite sides of Diarrando, with Achille standing next to Luna behind her. Luna reached out and grabbed the arms of each of the two older men and held them in her arms.

Dino remembers Luna's declaration that she wants to marry her future self, and Zuihou sits on Dirlando's lap with a reluctance to assert sovereignty over her body, so as not to be taken advantage of by Luna.

Husson made a few strokes with charcoal, and instead of drawing directly on the pendant, he first made a draft on a plain-sized canvas. He quickly sketched the outline of the figure with charcoal, and after a few strokes, the images of the four people were already on the page.

As a businessman with moral qualities, he certainly wouldn't ask what was wrong with Dirlando's eyes, but as an observant person, he found that the one-eyed did not hinder the shili of the young man in front of him.

Time spent in the rustling of charcoal and the rubbing of Dowling paper, the child is a child after all, plus the hot weather, it didn't take long for Dino to sit still and began to writhe, although Luna was trying to endure, but obviously a little impatient.

Huson painted for about forty minutes in one breath, Zuihou took two steps back, compared his eyes between the canvas and the model a few times, then happily clapped his hands and said, "Okay! ”

When everyone heard that they could move, they jumped up from their seats as if they had been amnestied, and then came together to look at the painting. After operating in this area for decades without going out of business, the boss naturally has two brushes, although they are only sketches, but everyone draws them vividly. What's special is that he didn't draw Dearlando's blindfold, but directly painted the sound two eyes.

Hasson had already begun to prepare the paint and turpentine needed for the next step of painting, and as he worked on it, he double-checked: "Are you waiting here or coming and pick it up in three hours?" Do you want to draw four pendants, and expedite it, right?"

Diarlando looked at the warm and harmonious group photo with a smile, and did not ask to correct the problem of the blindfold, and happily paid the full amount: "We will come over to get it later, it is for four, thank you for your hard work." (To be continued......)
