Vol 3 Chapter 3: : Merlin's Story

"Please come into the town to speak. Look at the 1 mao 2 line 3 Chinese website." After listening to Su Jin's statement, Master Mei Lin waved to remove the magic enchantment guarding the sky above the town, put away his staff, and said to the strangers outside the town .
Su Jin led people into the town, met the suspicion and scrutiny of countless villagers, and came to Master Meilin: "Can we ask why those werewolves are desperately attacking the town?"
Mage Merlin was silent for a moment, and saw hundreds of villagers who participated in the town’s resistance war looking at him, and said solemnly: "I know, this is also the doubt of all of you. In recent years, although werewolves will come to the villages and towns from time to time. Food, but never aggressively attacked villages and towns. Even if it’s not even a full moon night, the werewolves will not fall into a state of tyranny and murder. Therefore, in my opinion, there is only one reason for this phenomenon... …"
At this point, he suddenly paused, as if the blank space between the words drew everyone's appetites.
Fortunately, he is not from a book. He didn’t come to the last sentence and listened to the next breakdown. He soon continued:
The reason is that the wolf king among the werewolves is now hidden in the town and has been greatly stimulated in the past two days. I couldn't cover up my breath perfectly for a while, causing turmoil in the pack of wolves, frantically attacking the town, trying to welcome back the wolf king."
"The two races of man and wolf are not shared. The wolf king must have hidden secrets in the town. This secret will definitely threaten the safety of all of us!" said a burly old man with gray hair and a big red nose. .
"Can Master Merlin find the wolf king?" asked an unsightly man in the crowd.
Merlin shook his head and said: "The wolf king is very alert. When the werewolf started to be crazy, he noticed something was wrong, and forcibly restrained the violent emotions in his heart, calmed himself down, and covered up his breath again."
"The town is not big. Check out whose house these two have experienced drastic changes, and you will surely be able to find some clues." The red nosed old man said.
Master Meilin shook his head and said: "This will easily cause panic in the entire town, and lead to unjust, false and wrongful cases. The best way to see. Mao. Line. Chinese. Wen. Net is to wait and see the changes, as long as I am still there. Here, sooner or later the wolf king will show his wolf tail."
The red-nosed old man didn't know what calculations were hidden in his heart, a touch of loss flashed in his eyes, and he said solemnly, "Yes, respectable Merlin."
"A few friends from afar, can you drink?" Mei Lin seemed to be unaware of this, and smiled and asked Su Jin and the others: "If possible, I would like to invite you to the Tree Cave Bar for a drink."
Su Jin herself, with the idea of ​​understanding the world through him, smiled and said: "As long as the topic is interesting, a thousand cups are not drunk. If the topic is boring, one cup will be poured."
Merlin laughed, shaking his robe, and said loudly: "Please follow me."
Walking on the bumpy ground, looking at the messy streets and some messy buildings, the backwardness and run-down became the first impression of Su Jin and others of this town.
Fortunately, the bar that Merlin chose was very clean. Even to prevent the Master Merlin who saved the entire town from being disturbed, when they walked into the tree hole, the owner of the bar changed the sign on the door to closed, and ran ahead himself. Later, serve them tea and wine.
"My name is Mei Lin. I used to be a court mage. How about you?" Sitting on the side of a long dark yellow table, Mei Lin raised the wooden wine glass in his hand and respected the five strangers in front of him.
Su Jin responded with a toast, briefly clarifying the names of herself and the ladies, and then curiously asked: "Your Excellency used to be a court mage, what about now?"
"Now it's the target of the court." Mei Lin said with a smile.
"A convenient reason?"
"Having an affair with the queen." Merlin said.
Su Jin: "..."
Is this righteous tone showing off to them?
"It's not showing off, it's just simply stating something." The man is so sophisticated, and Mei Lin explained with extreme earnestness that he could see Su Jin's heart in his eyes.
Su Jin nodded, "I believe it."
"I am a person who desperately desires freedom."
Merlin drank two more glasses of wine, as if opening the chatterbox, telling everyone about his life: "But since I was born, I have lived in a world bound by various rules.
Parents, teachers, friends, colleagues...Many people keep talking to me, you should do this, you can't do that. You should think about reality and should not daydream.
I have been listening, have been listening, for more than forty years, my ears have become cocooned.
But no one knew that I was secretly accumulating strength, and when I was forty-five years old, I started the resistance mode. "
Su Jin couldn't guess Merlin's plan, and he didn't know what he meant to express, but he was a little more patient in the bar and drinking a sweet drink, and he was willing to listen to the other side to finish the story.
"That year, I was selected as the court mage because of my excellent results.
That year, the queen loved by the people died of illness. The king brought an extremely beautiful woman from the field. She was so beautiful that she seemed to be a poisonous red apple, even if she knew it was poisonous, she wanted to die. In this toxin.
The king fell into the poison of this woman, and I, like the king, failed to escape her charm. "
"But poison is poison after all. People who eat poisoned apples will definitely not end well.
The king lost authority because of her obsession, and I lost myself because of her obsession.
After I did so many wrong things for her, a certain fan realized that only then did I find that my hands were already stained with blood. "
"I couldn't accept the fact of being a slave to others, so I ran out of the palace and became the first palace mage to escape in hundreds of years.
No one knows why I want to escape, just as no one knows how dangerous their queen is..."
As time went on, the story gradually came to an end, and Merlin, who seemed drunk and not drunk, showed his thoughts along the way: "You will reduce demons and eliminate demons as a cost point, and are willing to brazenly attack the wolves for a group of strangers. Would you like to do something for me for justice?"
Su Jin drank the drink in the glass and said with a sudden smile: "Sorry, we don't want to."
Merlin narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Can I refuse after listening to my request?"
"You." Su Jin raised her hand.
"That's still something in this kingdom."
Merlin took a breath and said, "The king has a very beautiful daughter. For many reasons, this girl has become a thorn in the eyes of the new queen. She is pierced in the flesh, and she is locked in the palace like a beast...
A girl who is like a flower should not bear this miserable fate. So I want to ask you if you can save her from the prison in the palace! "
