Chapter 18: A Visit to the City Lord
After all, we visited the castle lord.
An abrupt building in the center of the town, the residence of the lord of the castle, was intercepted by the guards at the gate, and we were able to enter it after a few tosses.
Xiaobai turned into a kitten and ran around the mansion.
When the door was opened, a half-hundred-year-old man with a strong body and a small belly sat there with a kind face. See us coming, enthusiastically watch the seat pour water.
"Where did the guests come from?" he asked me.
"Thydom. ”
"That's a treasure!" he began to praise Thorm's miraculousness, and at the same time a little melancholy.
"There are a lot of people who come to Thydom, but..."
"Just what?" I asked.
The lord of the city stood up, looked at the people outside the window, and sighed, "The city is close to Shi Zhi Dom, and although there are many people going there, there is no one coming to the small city of Dip, even if they are passing by. ”
Speaking a little sadly, Xiao and I also looked at each other, what kind of trick is this?
"Then why didn't anyone come, is there something special in your city?" asked Koya.
The city lord shook his head, "No, although my city is not rich, everyone is kind, hardworking and simple, how can there be anything special?"
"Oh, maybe there's something in the city at night. ”
Xiao also said it very bluntly, he just wanted to see the city lord's reaction, but he was a little surprised, his face did not change at all, and he repeatedly denied the so-called special things.
"How long has this been going on?"
"I've been here since I was a child, and I've been doing this since I was a child, probably for more than 50 years. ”
"Did something like this happen here more than fifty years ago?"
"Disaster," the castle lord looked at the ceiling and thought slowly, "Speaking of which, it seems that there is, but I can't remember exactly. ”
"Yes, oh yes, I see that the water in your land is very clear and sweet, where does it come from?"
Speaking of water, the city lord suddenly came to his senses, squinted his eyes and began to boast.
"The water here is naturally good, it comes from the purest mountain range of the city of Dipami, and almost all of the water comes from it. ”
"Isn't this the city..."
The lord explained that the small place we were in was a small branch of the city of Delami, which was located north of the city of Delbo and was quite noisy and prosperous.
Xiao didn't speak, and was about to leave after a few random words, but was suddenly pulled behind by the city lord.
"I'd like to arrange a banquet tonight to welcome the two of you to the city, so please be sure to enjoy your faces. ”
The atmosphere was a little cold, Xiao Ye lowered his head slightly, and there was a hint of chill in his eyes under his bangs.
"Okay. He whispered yes.
Being sent out respectfully, I had a slightly cold face, and Xiao also walked behind me, and I didn't say a word.
"Tianxin?" he called me.
"Oh. ”
"You're not happy?"
"No, I'm worried about tonight. ”
Xiao Ye suddenly grabbed my sleeve behind me, grabbed my hand, and said with a smile, "It's not a simple trip to find the heart of the mainland." ”
"Where is the heart of the continent?"
"Where you want it to be, it's there. ”
Ahead, the white tiger leaned against the tree and waved at us, it seemed that he had been waiting for a long time, and when I was about to go over to fight him, a little girl with long hair went to greet him first.
I sighed, sure enough, the handsome guy or something is the most stylish.
This girl with a beautiful face could see that she was Xiaobai's admirer, and a hundred meters away, another group of little girls in the flower season were secretly watching under the tree.
"These kids are as old as you. "I said to Xiaoya.
I walked over with Xiaoya, Xiaobai kept smiling warmly, and the little girl gave him a string of bracelets, and then ran away with a red face.
"What?" I asked, and Xiaobai shook his head, saying that he didn't understand either.
