Chapter 228: Tossing and turning
Xu is iron gloves and white seagulls are too strong, and in the midst of the staggering, people's faces gradually appear double in Li Ang's eyes.
Everyone was smiling, and it was a blessing for a lonely and ostracized witcher to be able to attend such a dinner party, all of the same kind.
He thought that if the fire demon broke the seal at this time, these drunks would probably all have to be served in one pot.
He was sure he would be able to run, and he had the teleportation talisman that Lady Angelina had given him, which could pull him directly back to the Tyrion Tree.
"I seem to understand why they don't want to give up on Kyle Mohan. ”
Cohen returned to Leon with his glass.
In the end, he still had a hint of reserve as a wizard of the griffin school, he didn't shout like those drunks, he didn't shout and didn't have a proper shape, and still maintained a polite appearance.
But his younger brother, Messier, has already mingled with the rest of the people.
"Why"
"Because this is the Witcher's House, you can understand what it's like to have a home for us as a group. ”
"Yes, I can understand. ”
Li Ang said: "'Home' is a place that you don't need to come back to often, but as long as you know that there is such a thing in this world - it can open the door for you all the time, and there are people and things you are familiar with, which can make people feel at ease." ”
"Yes, that's a very apt point. Witchers are not religious, but they should always have some sustenance. ”
Cohen smiled: "Speaking of which, there is really no change here compared to before, this table has been used for almost a hundred years....."
He pointed to a shallow scratch on the table and said, "This is what I carved, and it's almost smoothed." At that time, we were receiving uniform swordsmanship training in Kellmohan, and there was a feline witcher named Moissan, who was our sword teacher, and his swordsmanship was indeed outstanding, but his personality was difficult to get along with, especially since Ogild, who was prejudiced against our griffin school. ”
"I've always hated him, and one day, after he insulted the witchers of our griffin school for not being worthy of learning his sword, I carved his name on the table and made several horizontal strokes. ”
"He didn't come this time"
"He's long dead. ”
Cohen's smile was a little bitter: "When he took us on a demon hunting trial, he died trying to save the Messier - he was really difficult to get along with, but he deserved to be a teacher." ”
"It's a shame. ”
"There is nothing to be sorry for, but not only because of the terrible character of his family, he once washed the whole village in blood because a noble family owed him a fee, and killed men, and women - he was a complete villain, and it was not a pity to die. ”
Leon was speechless.
"But this is sometimes the case in the world, where there is no black and white, and there is no clear distinction between good and evil. There are very few good people among the witchers, but in reality, each of them can be called very good people - if you can be their companion. ”
"That's true. ”
Cohen's face flushed, and he was a little confused: "I'm sorry, it seems like I've talked too much." ”
"I don't think so. ”
"Rest early tonight, I'm not as optimistic about that fire demon as Ogild, and even if we can get rid of it, I don't know how many lives we'll lose. ”
"I'll do my best. ”
"Everybody, I'm honored to play alongside you, Lyon. ”
Cohen stretched out his fist and bumped into Leon, standing up to leave, but was stopped by Ogild, who was already drunk.
"I want to run"
He grabbed Cohen's elaborate wool blouse and shouted, "Usually you carry the shelf of the deputy wizard, but tonight, you look at the Messier, you hold the shelf again, be careful that we beat you together!"
The Messier, who was already drunk and stunned, shouted, "Yes, beat you!"
Cohen felt helpless and sighed: "Okay, I'll accompany you, and I won't get drunk tonight." ”
Leon subconsciously looked at Esta who had threatened to compete with Ogilde for a drink, and looked around, only to find that the woman was already lying on the table, unconscious.
That's it
He couldn't help but laugh.
But soon his smile froze.
For he saw that Ishtar seemed to perceive his gaze, and his drunken eyes were raised to see his mocking smile.
So she got to her feet and staggered along.
"You're laughing at me"
Leon: "......"
Bang –
A full glass of wine was poured, and she pointed to the glass that was about to overflow and said, "Drink with me!"
Leon had no choice but to pick up his glass, and as soon as he put it to his lips, Ishtar fell to the ground with a pop, and the wine spilled all over his body...... What a mess.
If there were a camera to capture this scene in front of him, it would surely become the black history of Ishtar's life.
Reluctantly, he lifted Ishtar, who was completely unconscious, and placed him on a bench beside him.
The noisy dinner lasted for an hour before silence returned.
There are drunken people lying everywhere, and if something unexpected happens, they might be able to resist this intoxication, but for now, they just need a hearty drunk.
Because a life-and-death battle is just around the corner.
They will face a high-order fire demon, and no one dares to guarantee that they will survive.
Ogilde's alcohol consumption was not blown, and everyone fell, but he still stood out from the crowd.
He looked around and around several times before finally looking at Leon, who was sitting in the corner with a low sense of presence.
"Leon, how did you get here?"
Li Ang smiled: "My alcohol consumption is not very good, and if something happens, there must be a sober person to wake you up, so that everyone will not be wiped out by a pot." ”
Ogilde gave a thumbs up: "Makes sense!"
He dragged two chairs and lay down beside Leon: "The bedroom has been collapsed by the fire demon, let's deal with the chair for a night tonight." ”
"Good. ”
"That doesn't seem polite. ”
"Ha, what's the matter, I'm also a witcher, and I've slept in the snow and ice and slept by a river full of mosquitoes, I'm not so squeamish. ”
"Well, how could Lady Angelina bear to let you be a witcher?"
"It's a path I have chosen, it's not about anyone else, and to be honest, I'm enjoying it – I used to have a good life, but after a long time, it seems unremarkable. ”
Leon was referring to his past life.
In this life, even if he is the emperor of Dongluo or Shinra, his living conditions may not be as good as that of him who was just an ordinary person in his previous life.
But as he said, those days are too dull, and you can see the future at a glance.
Study hard, work hard, get married, have children, earn money to repay loans, work hard all your life, and occasionally hold your shriveled wallet, thinking about going to that crowded tourist attraction to see the landscape.
Subsequently, it will be old in a few decades.
Those days are really fun
Ogilde sighed, "I really can't understand your thoughts. ”
Li Ang said: "Rest early, we need to recuperate." ”
"Well, good night, Mr. Leon. ”
"Good night, Mr. Ogilde. ”
...
Under the flickering oil lamp, only swaying black shadows and snoring sound were left one after another.
But Leon soon realized that something was wrong - he was suffering from insomnia.
He lay down for a long time and began to toss and turn.
Ilgilde's voice rang out coldly: "What, I can't sleep alone"
"Sort of. ”
Yesterday he was holding the fragrant leprechaun, and today he slept on a hard bench, and the smell of alcohol and snoring was everywhere.
"Do you regret leaving Avalon?"
"No regrets. ”
"I have a little. Ogild sighed, "If I survive and fight the Firefiend, I'll go to Avalon to find Alice." ”
"Don't say that, okay?"
"What's wrong?"
"Sounds unlucky. ”
Like an old general on the stage.
