The flame of the oil lamp swayed in the room, causing the light and shadow on Crete's face to move slightly, so his handsome face gave a vivid feeling, combined with the simple and detailed description of his story, let the audience It is easy to enter the world in the story.
Even if Luo Ling sat in front of him and listened to his narrative scenes, he felt the same.
"Hawker took me to their secret stronghold, and then introduced Lorenzo this 'teacher' to me. I understand that this is all they have prepared, and if I want to know more things, I must follow their instructions. Go for it. So, I followed Lorenzo to learn that 'magic', and then I had this in my hand. "Crete reached out to Luo Ling.
Luo Ling looked at the tattoo but couldn't see how many famous halls. She asked: "At that time, you followed them alone, weren't you afraid?"
"Afraid!" Crete smiled a little embarrassedly, "but fear does not mean that he will run away, right? My father kept telling me that the knight would have been out of our ancestors. "Crete paused for a moment, as if recalling something," I'm not a good boy. I escaped many times before, but after my father left, I don't want to let him down anymore. "
Luo Ling did not expect this half-old child to say such an answer. She distinguished the minutiae on his face, these words seemed to be sincere.
She asked again: "Why didn't you want to tell Katrina the truth?"
Crete froze and replied: "I know that Sister Caterina cares about me, but I don't know her. We just met the day my father died. A person who looks like a good person does not mean that he really is .. In the slave merchants, among the slaves, we have seen too many good people who pretend to be. And the man named Ji Yijun beside her, I do n’t know either, so I did n’t tell them too much. The ringing died of hunting arrows first. ’My father kept telling me that if I ’m not sure about one thing, then do n’t say anything, just look at it. I think those people are everywhere, any stranger may be One of them, I do n’t know these, so I can only believe the teacher ’s instructions and believe you alone. "
"Then why did you come to me after two days?"
"Because Lorenzo told me that he can not only talk to me through this magic mark, but also see the situation around me. You know, this is a terrible thing, is it like I am doing anything? Looks the same on the side? Is it true that I ca n’t escape his ears with anything I say to others? Although he said it was protecting me, I understood that I had been placed under his eyelids. How do I dare to come to you before monitoring me? In the past two days, I pretended to be a little boy who knew nothing and only complained, doing stupid things and saying something that should not be said, Secretly observe if he can find it. "
"You really have a heart." Luo Ling sighed. She felt at this time that she must never look at this teenager as an ordinary child. I don't know how many things he has experienced in the past, so he will be mature at this age. .
And he is a born actor, whether it is singing, acting or telling a story, it is an instinct to him. No wonder those tempting guys will easily believe his complaints.
He was only fourteen years old, maybe, Xiao Chen harvested more than just a magic apprentice
"I was alone, and said to the air: 'Mr. Lorenzo, the guards seem to be staring at me.' And I said: 'I found the camp guard talking about your party.', But they Nothing happened. Then when I was talking with Lorenzo again, I complained to him that there was no response to calling for help.
They didn't have much vigilance against children like me, and finally let me clarify the function of this tattoo. I found out that Lorenzo only knew what was happening around me when he turned out a sphere of light. Like now, he doesn't know what is happening around me. And he usually contacts me twice a day. Before I came out, he just contacted me. It is estimated that he won't find me again today. "
"Then why do you pretend to be a woman?"
Crete said, "Because I noticed that some people are following me secretly these days, I didn't dare to go to your office. In order to avoid the attention of others at night, I had to dress up as a woman and come to your bedroom."
"Well, you have both Caterina's mercenary companions and my people. But it's not excluded that this Lorenzo also sent someone to stare at you." Luo Ling said, "However, Caterina and Ji Yijun are worth Trust, their concern for you is true. "
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure, I know their details, they don't need to do anything sneaky."
"If that's the case, it would be great." Crete was a little rejoiced, and he didn't want Katerina to have any problems. He looked at Luo Ling anxiously and asked, "What should I do next?" "
auzw.com "Nothing to do."
"What?" Crete's face was puzzled.
"Crete, you are a very smart and brave child, I doubt how many adults in this school can do you like this. However, you have done enough, if you need such a child to be a lone hero, then We adults are too incompetent.
Luo Ling stood up and walked in front of Crete with his hands on his shoulders, and said seriously,
You can hide your emotions, but I can feel that you had How scared and lonely, I believe that you have regretted more than once, and feel like you are playing big, right? "
Crete stared at Luo Ling staring blankly, and he opened his mouth, but it took a while to make a voice: "I and I have been so a few times that I feel too reckless."
"So, I don't want you to continue to take risks. I don't think Xiao Chen will agree to let you take risks. I would like to invite Morey to take a look at the circle in your hand. If there is no big problem, we will directly grab Hawke. The group led by Lorenzo. "
"But there are still people behind them. I even heard that some of the guards and mercenaries are very close to them."
"We can slowly interrogate the people behind, but you have done enough. I do n’t believe that under our sudden blow, these people in the dark can hide. We have a sentence there called" Quick Knife ". Sometimes this It is more effective than squandering melons. As long as we cut off all of their extended claws, even the fish that are missing the net should stop. "Luo Ling seemed very confident when he said these words.
Crete thought for a while in silence, and finally said firmly: "But, but I still want to continue to work with them."
"why?"
"I don't want to do things in half."
"This is not a good reason." Luo Ling said decisively.
Crete thought for a while and said, "You know, it's the safest way to work around, so that the bad guys hiding deepest can be pulled out. I hate all the bad guys hiding in the dark, if not these people, I My father will not die. You are afraid that it will be dangerous for me to deal with them, but if these people are not caught clean, they will get revenge by then, am I not even more dangerous? "
"Although there is some truth, this is not enough. It is not enough for one person to work hard. And these situations are just hypotheses, and I can also say that the sooner the strike, the less harm." Luo Ling and Crete looked at each other. After all, Crete is a half-old child, and he feels a lot of pressure under Luo Ling's burning eyes.
Is this the spiritual power of the magician? Crete had a feeling that he was going to be seen through. He didn't like this uncovered state. He gritted his teeth and said slowly: "I want to prove myself. I want to stand out. I want others to know that as a Magic apprentice, I am qualified. This opportunity should have belonged to me, not the charity in exchange for my father ’s life. "
"Does this make a difference to you? As long as you have enough mental talent, you will eventually become a mage. Why take risks?"
"Master Luo Ling, there are many kinds of slaves in the slave camps. Some slaves can't eat enough every day, and they have to go to the mine to work. If they are accidentally disabled, they will be scrapped and fed by slave merchants. The ending of the dog. Some slaves have some skills that can help the slave merchants to do some craft work, as long as they are not lazy, they may not be worse than the peasants outside. There are also some slaves with special places on their bodies, or like the Roger Knight Martial arts are superb; or they are beautiful, they can sing and dance; or like me, they have a very good voice. The slave merchants even provide us with food and drink to sell us a good price, even more than ordinary people in towns. Better. To protect my throat, they will prepare special herbs for me to eat. Even, in order to allow my father to take care of me, they relieve him of the mining work.
However, this was not the case at the beginning. I was just a little slave who could die at any time. You know, little slaves are worthless, and they count the fastest in the camp. My father tried his best to find different places on me in order to survive me. I still remember the night he discovered that I was able to sing a good song, crying excitedly. He divided his food into a minstrel slave and asked him to teach me to sing, but he was half hungry. He kowtowed to a grumpy old dancer just to let her teach me a few moves. Every day he thinks about what interesting minor tunes the merchants have walked before, and then, using the symbols he invented, record the key notes and lyrics, and engrave them on the wall with stones. Then let me learn as soon as I can.
One year, and it was this year that I used my singing to attract the slave merchants who passed by our cell. It took another year before I had enough value to let them fish my father out of the mine. When I saw him, he looked ten years older than he was a year ago!
From that time on, I understood that slaves and slaves are different. Now, I believe that the Master and the Master must be different. I won't let go of any chance to prove myself. "
Prove your ability? Prove your worth? Prove yourself worth investing? Luo Ling read his mind from his face, after all, this is a man who is not willing to be mediocre. So she asked, "I don't regret taking it in?"
"No regrets." Crete did not hesitate, his face was full of stubbornness from the inside out.
"Ah, you're still a child." Luo Ling walked over to hug him gently and touched his head.
