Li Jia, Du Mei and Shi Hao and their entourage walked slowly on the mountain road. Li Jiaming clearly felt that the old knight named Alfonso who led the way ahead had a very strange attitude. He looked uglier to them than the iceberg, but he didn't make any extraordinary moves. Receiving Li Jia and his party seemed to be something he hated and had to do. His reluctant look looked like a donkey forced to press his head to drink water. The soldiers who followed were nervous and guarded, and looked at them from time to time.
Du Mei also obviously felt this weird atmosphere, and she asked with some fear: "They don't seem to welcome us very much. Will they ... have any conspiracy to harm us?"
Li Jia smiled gently and said, "You can rest assured that we are only three people. They really should hurt others. It seems to me that they are defending us."
Du Mei turned his head very carefully and glanced at a cavalry beside her. He just met his eyes. The man's face was full of flesh, and her heart jumped suddenly, and "Ah" uttered shortly. scream.
Li Jia sees all this in his eyes and shook his head secretly. There is really no one in school to send. How can such a girl become a problem? He couldn't help thinking of the beautiful and energetic figure ... she wouldn't be like that.
"Hello! You are polite to the lady, understand?" Shi Hao heard Du Mei's cry and looked back. He was looking at the soldier staring at Du Mei. He immediately raised his face and used unskilled language. Said loudly.
Li Jia originally wanted Shi Hao not to act rashly, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. But I didn't expect that after the soldier was said, he didn't dare to answer the question and immediately lowered his head without saying a word. The leader Alfonso just glanced back and said nothing.
"These natives seem to be bullying and hard, and they can't be too polite to them." Shi Hao said slightly disdainfully.
"Brother Shi, you must protect me. When I came out, I didn't expect these people to be so fierce." Du Mei pulled the reins less skillfully and let the horse walk to the edge of Shi Hao.
"You can rest assured that it is there." Shi Hao pointed to the gun behind him, and made an expression that made her feel at ease.
"Huh." Du Mei nodded again and again.
"I said earlier, things like rushing to ask for help is to put a hot face on the cold butt. There is not enough benefit, who will help you to survive or die? Alive in this world, everything is still on my own. I am now The most important thing to do is to arrange patrols in the school and train the militia, not to see this Viscount, "Shi Hao said, annoyed.
"However, the committee said that we can still get something to deal with Viscount Ruiz. Besides, we are also his nearest neighbors. If the bandit has been walking around, will it cause huge losses to his territory?" Du Mei said quietly.
"It's not easy to say, maybe he just wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. These aliens look strange and weird, they can't be trusted at all." Shi Hao snorted.
"Don't be too busy to draw a conclusion, let's see the Lord first and talk about it." Li Jia looked at the castle built by the yellow stones on the hill.
At the same time, in a room on the upper floor of the castle's main building, Li Jia's longing thoughts were looking back from a narrow stone window to the Viscount Ruiz sitting by the coffee table in the room.
"Okay, dear Celinda. Alfonso has already picked them up. If you insist, I should be ill. You know, when I hear the horn of war, I get fever easily. But even if I see What should they do? I ’m not your father, countless vassals. The loyal old Alfonso is the only knight around me. Do you want this poor old guy to fight with thousands of horse thieves? "The Viscount Ruiz leaned on the back of his chair, folded his hands elegantly, and looked at Celinda in a hard suit with a smile.
Celinda's red hair was set up, with a bit more mature charm. She was dressed in a sophisticated set of black leather armor and had a long sword hanging around her waist. She looked heroic: "Uncle Ruiz, you should know that the leader of those horse thieves is Cadiz."
"I saw this kid before when he was your father's guard. It was a little rude and full of wildness, but it was smart. Maybe the horse thief's life is more suitable for him than the guard."
"He has an unclear relationship with our family. You know this, and everyone else knows. This news may someday be heard in the ears of some angry magicians."
"Your father won't let go of anything." Viscount Ruiz smiled softly.
"The handle is used between those who follow the rules. The magicians ... How many of them are more concerned about the rules?"
"Maybe you should trust your father more. I believe he will handle these things. The magician, the noble, the horse thief, your father has dealt with many such people in his life. And you, last time I saw When you were a cute little girl jumping up and down. "
"But I don't think how well he did. How much is the fame of the Arias family? What did he do in addition to leaving a reputation as a in those days in the capital? He said he came to inspect the territory , But had a conflict with the leaders, and now have to grumble with the magician. "Celinda was obviously a little excited, the red eyes seemed to burn," The Arias family needs more allies, not An inexplicable enemy. I think it was a big mistake for him to use a horse thief to test a magician who does n’t know the details. He ... I do n’t really know what happened to him. "

Viscount Ruiz is still very calm, "Your father may not be like a mad warrior, but it must be a good Arias."
"Uncle Ruiz, anyway, in this matter, I ... I have to do something for the family."
Viscount Irus stared at her eyes, but Celinda did not flinch.
"Really." He laughed, "Cadiz is a wild horse, and your father may not be able to control him, and we can't stop it. And, as far as I know, the decent horse band in Montenegro is almost It ’s all here, the damaged magician ’s castle, the magician away from home, the treasures gathered by the magician, you know to what extent this will make the horse thieves jealous. If Cadiz wants to stop now, his head must not be left tomorrow."
"I never thought to stop Cadiz." Celinda walked to Vis Ruiz, sitting in the chair opposite him, and said seriously: "But I need a chance, one to join this battle Opportunity, an opportunity on the side of the magician. "
The castle is dark and small, and there is no romance like fairy tales. Although it is daytime, light can only enter through the narrow window on the side of the walkway. Li Jia and others followed behind Alfonso and walked on a dark red carpet. The sunlight separated the carpet into sections of light and dark, plus the obscure relief on the column, the old tapestries on the wall and the complicated standing in the corner Pottery decorations make this journey mysterious and strange.
At the door at the end of the passage, a waiter who had been waiting opened the door. Alfonso stood aside and looked at it with his fingers, but did not speak to them.
"Wait." Li Jia hesitated when he saw this, and some gloomy castle gave him a rather uneasy feeling.
"It's already here, and there is nothing to wait for. We won't come if we are afraid of death." Shi Hao posed as if he was not afraid of the sky, and walked in first.
His voice was shaking, and I was afraid that Li Jia was keenly aware of Shi Hao's fear. Only the weak need to constantly encourage themselves with words, while the strong ......... I'm afraid the three people here can't catch up with the strong. He pondered the reason for Shi Hao's bravery, and then he understood that Shi Hao after the goblin incident seemed to be hoping to prove himself to be a courageous person every moment.
In this new world, everyone has to prove something.
Du Mei looked at the two of them, and may feel that Shi Hao's gun was more secure. He took his arm and followed him.
Li Jia glanced at Alfonso and saw a sneer sneering in the corner of his mouth. He could see full hatred in this expression.
What the is he hating?
After the three of them entered the room, Alfonso followed, closing the door behind him.
This is a reception room, there is no one inside, two rows of simple sofas are placed opposite each other, and there is a coffee table in the middle. On one side of the room, there are several window holes that are slightly larger than the corridor, but because the wooden window is open, and there is no glass or window paper, the cold wind comes in with a soft voice. Fortunately, on the other side of the room, the charcoal fire burning in the fireplace brought some warmth and made the room brighter.
Li Jia looked at Alfonso. After the old knight entered this room, he treated them as air, and looked at himself as if he was standing guard, and stood at another door.
The owner did not come, and the three could only visit the furnishings in the room. Li Jia noticed an oil painting on a wall in the room, a group of muscular warriors without armor, armed with sharp axes, slaughtering some well-armored enemies. These people were fighting brutally, with crazy expressions, and some enemies were They were torn in half, and some enemies were screwed off their heads.
"These soldiers are terrible." Du Mei sighed at the realistic paintings.
"No matter how scary it is, it's just an axe." Shi Hao said with a gun.
"This is probably the legendary mad warrior." Li Jia thought thoughtfully.
"This is my ancestor Lille Bedingani, following Lord Melo Arias' battle against the Black Dragon Empire. Ah, the one who broke the enemy's neck in the painting. He is the left arm and right arm of Lord Arias. Defeat countless enemies. It can be said that every inch of the country's land is derived from the axes of these mad warriors. "A clear voice rang from behind them.
The three saw the door beside Alfonso open. A middle-aged man in a purple cardigan walked in. The robe was slightly slim, and there were gold embroidery on the chest, hem and cuffs. The neckline reveals a white shirt with a flower collar, and the lower body is brown trousers and short leather boots. When Li Jia saw his first glance, he felt that the man was quite handsome and elegant, with his silver hair and blue eyes, which was in line with the aristocratic style in the TV series and the painting. The ancestors are completely two creatures.
The middle-aged man walked to the middle of the reception room and gently stroked his chest to salute: "Welcome you, guests from the castle of the Wizard, this is Ruiz Bedingani, Viscount of Finicia."
