A mermaid encounter (1)

The wind and the sun are beautiful, and the climate is suitable.

The road back to the imperial capital from the quaint town of Tre is only a few hundred kilometers, which is really not far for them who are used to traveling. The official roads of the Purple Kite Empire are lush and green, and the scenery is not beautiful, but it is pleasant.

After a little adventure, there are always moments of relaxation. The group did not have a rush to travel, so they rode slowly, walked slowly, walked slowly, walked slowly, talked and laughed, and played like children.

Robert and Sunshadow did not join the laughing group, and the two rode behind slowly. Sunshadow squinted her eyes, like a cat enjoying the gentle sunshine, a rare leisure time in the afternoon, leaving behind some worries and forgetting some worries.

Robert looked at such a rare sunshadow, and had the illusion that he didn't know anything about this teenager, maybe he knew it in the first place. All he knew was that Boss Peng came back with the boy, and he only knew that Boss Peng asked them to listen to his command. Mature and steady that doesn't match their age.,Ready to take a knife for them at any time.,Always standing at the front of the battlefield in isolation.,With admirable tenacity.。 But where did he come from? His past, at least none of them knew. Robert suddenly remembered the conversation he had had in the Magic House. He couldn't help but ask. "Xiaoying, the God's Selection Plan, why do you know, is it related to you?"

It's not a conjecture for no reason, the conversation in the magic house, and the rare heaviness of the young man in front of him at that time, all show that this plan is known to the Japanese shadow. And Robert asked himself if he knew a thing or two about many secrets on this continent, and this simple-sounding plan involved not only the Holy Court, but also seemed to have triggered these strange and strange things in the Purple Kite Empire, and the situation of the Demon House was so rare that he had never heard of it here. His curiosity has not stopped from then to now. It's just that he stopped talking at that time, and now that there seems to be room to talk, he doesn't hesitate to ask.

But Robert felt the change in Sunshadow's body the moment he asked. Just like the person who is calm and self-controlled, the person who is extremely restrained and introverted, the person whose emotions are habitually hidden, his body tenses for a moment, and some invisible relaxed atmosphere disappears in an instant, and the cat turns into a cheetah in an instant, full of vigilance against the unknown of the grassland. It doesn't matter if you say it's okay, no one will believe it.

But Robert also saw the seriousness of the Hikage. A rare serious, serious look at him, in the black pupils, flashed a look of trouble, frowning, troubled, quite troubled.

The boy's expression made Robert laugh. It turned out that the indifferent teenager also had such an expression. How could his problem be more troublesome than looking at him with a knife. Robert, I remember that in the magic house, when the boy was subjected to various attacks on their behalf, he didn't even blink his eyes, as if he was not injured at all. But now.

"Okay, okay. I don't ask. Tell me when you feel like it's not so bothered to tell me. Robert said with a smile.

After all, everyone has secrets, doesn't they.

At this time, the young man who seemed to understand well really relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief. Hearing his flat voice, he said with a little tiredness, "If it's Luo, if you ask, I should answer, because one day, you will know." But it's not yet time. I don't want to tell anyone. As if he was hiding his emotions, his eyelids half-closed, his eyes tilted to the point where he should have wandered.

The shadow of the sun at this time is a rare shadow of the sun. Plain and straightforward, sad and tired to answer, it was a trust in him, but at the same time it made Robert's brow furrow. He sensitively noticed that the relationship between this selection plan and the young man in front of him seemed to be much more than just related, as if it accounted for a great weight in his life, and it seemed to be related not only to the origin and character, but also to touch some future fate.

Robert wanted to say something more, but he didn't know where to start. A moment of hesitation.

"Who?"

A loud and vigilant question came from ahead. It was Mott's vigilant voice, and the other people who were fighting immediately stopped, and looked vigilantly at the side of the road, where there were several people hidden in the not dense woods on the side.

There was a sparse sound of footsteps, as if they didn't intend to hide too much, but seemed to be waiting for their inquiry. Several people dressed in ordinary clothes immediately walked out, and the leader was a little more decent than the others.

"Who are you? Don't tell you it's a robbery. Mott said with a cold snort.

"If it's really interesting, I'm bored, uncle. Miga said excitedly with an expression written on his face to come and grab A.

Robert and Sunshadow hurried forward. I took a closer look at the people who came. The leader of the group, the bright light of a bit of badge on the collar attracted their attention. It is a unique official class badge of the Purple Kite Empire, which is extremely elaborate and difficult to replicate and engraved with different textures, representing different official ranks and identities. These others may not know it, but Robert, who has been doing the job for many years, is all too familiar.

"Is this the mayor of any place?" asked Robert.

"This lord is quite discerning, and he can recognize our mayor just by looking at us. That's pretty much what we expected. A man in black who looked reckless in the crowd nodded and said.

"Hans, don't be rude. The man at the head stopped Hans and said to Robert. "Your Excellency. I'm the mayor of Danfeng Town. I hope you will forgive me for hindering you. ”

"Is there something going on with the town chief, as far as I know, Danfeng is not around here. There are still dozens of kilometers to the south. Robert said politely.

"This adult is really well-informed, even in such a small place as our Danfeng Town. It is worthy of being the second-ranked mercenary group in the Purple Kite Empire, and Ma Ci'er finally didn't lie to me. The mayor grinned in relaxation and pleasure, and his goatee curled as he continued. "Everybody, here you came here, the mayor of Trey Town, who you removed from the monster house, told me by the pigeon. I hurried here. Fortunately, a few of you are not in a hurry, so I can meet you here. There is something important to ask you for help, and I hope you can lend a hand. After saying that, he bowed his hand.

"You're a coincidence, and you can just happen to meet here?" said Mott with a raised eyebrow and a disdainful face. "If you want manpower, wouldn't it be faster to go to the Mercenary Guild?"

"Don't be suspicious, adults. Behind the mayor, a slightly sven young man said humbly. "We really got a letter from the mayor of Spurs. And the application submitted by a small town like ours can't invite any decent mercenary group at all, not to mention, a mercenary group like yours won't go to the mercenary association to take the case at all, so we have to come here to block the road and take a risk. ”

"It makes sense, we don't get a few cases a year. Miga laughed. "But it's true that we're breaking cows. Haha"

"Look at what you can. Melson squinted at Mica and turned to look at Robert and Sunshadow. "Brother Ying, Luo, what do you say?"

"Mayor, let's talk about what is going on to make it difficult for you. Robert looked at the Sunshadow, who didn't speak, nodded slightly, and Robert asked modestly.

"Thank you to a few adults for listening to the old man's words, there is no trouble in our town, and I will not come to bother. Our town is the same as the Spurs, the only difference is that we are only lost girls!"

"Shenma! Only the beautiful girl is missing! This can't be bearable, it's that Wang Balamb who dares to kidnap only the beautiful girl!" Miga said excitedly when he heard the mayor's words.

"It's a girl, I didn't say it's a beautiful girl!" said Miga, holding her forehead and rolling her eyes.

"The missing good people can be reported to the higher armies of the Empire, didn't they send people?" Robert asked, ignoring the noise beside him, pushing his silver glasses.

"When one was missing, I went to look for it, and the army said it wasn't a problem, and when three were missing, I went to look for it again, and the army said that it was nothing! Now there are five missing! How old is our mayor! Five are missing, and how many are missing is a big deal!" The young man behind the mayor who was a little sven said with grief and indignation.

"The Empire's army has become so unbearable. Mott raised his eyebrows, and with his knowledge of the army, he was a little skeptical of the grief and anger of the person in front of him.

"There are some good and bad things in different places. Robert said pertinently. Keep asking. "You should have found it, right?

"Looked. The town searched over and over again, and the town was also searched, but there was not the slightest clue. The men, the old and the young in the town have nothing to do, they just lose the girls. What happened to the Spurs before, the old man knew. The old man wondered if our town had the same situation, and the matter on the Spur side that was solved by a few of your Excellencies should be able to solve us, so I found it in a daze. Of course, we are also ready to pay, and I hope that you will not be too small and work hard to walk with us. After the mayor finished speaking, he bowed deeply.

They are not ordinary rural mercenary groups, not to mention petty officials, even kneeling is worth it. However, the elderly are also not subject to the ceremony. The group politely followed Robert off the horse, and Robert picked up the mayor and looked at the sunshadow.

The mayor of the town also looked at the shadow at this time. They faintly discovered that this young man who had never spoken from beginning to end was the center of this group of people who felt out of tune in the second mercenary group of the Purple Kite Empire, which had a very special identity mentioned in the spur's letter, and this young man who looked very astringent, not strong, and even a little thin, really gained the respect and dependence of this group of stout men. At this time, the mayor of the town hoped that the young man would nod.

He wasn't disappointed, and the young man nodded.

Girl, such a word itself is a beautiful representation. What's more, that person is also the appearance of a girl, and he also died in such a beautiful year. No matter when, as long as a figure flashes in his heart, Sunshadow can feel so guilty that he can't breathe. Just because Sunshadow didn't say anything didn't mean he didn't care. There are so many injustices in the world, which can be heard or heard, but he can't sit idly by and ignore it by doing it from his heart.

"Let's go. Sunshadow said calmly.

"Well, let's go, anyway, the boss shouldn't be in a hurry to let us go back. Robert got on his horse and said.

There's a magic that makes you stand when you hear his name. A few men who were going to go wild suddenly had a little reins behind their backs.

It's a sunny day. If you don't do it beautifully and smash the signboard, you're meddling. The silver eye sockets that Robert nudged with his hand, and the cold light for a moment made the shadow of a familiar whip seem to flash in front of his eyes. That was the shadow of Peng Xiu's boss educating them.

Miga shuddered for a while, Brother Shadow, you wait for me, why don't we think about it again??

Ahead, the intelligent Robert had already asked the mayor for more details. The Shadow of the Sun continues to wander in the gods...... The mayor's entourage stretched their eyebrows. I didn't expect it, I didn't expect this group of people to really talk so well. The mayor and his entourage all showed expressions of great joy.

The group turned southward, and perhaps thought that it was the same as the town of Trey, =, but for three or five days, it was easy to use brute force and a matter of effort, but it did not come to pass, and the water was deeper and more complicated than expected. But that's all for another time.
