There was goose-feather snow outside the window, and the sun in winter was not as harsh as in summer.
The open windows let in the biting cold wind. Someone was wearing an ordinary robe, facing the wind, feeling the chill that penetrated his organs.
This is not because someone is self-inflicted, but because he was too busy a while ago and suddenly relaxed, and spent the past few days dawdling in bed. He lay there until his two little apprentices couldn't stand it anymore, although they didn't nag like an old lady.
, but it also keeps making small movements, making it difficult for people to sleep comfortably in the blanket.
But if there is no goal in life, there is no motivation. Without motivation, there is no motivation to do things. And I was busy with bank matters before, so busy that I felt a little sick. Under the physical law of action and reaction, what am I doing now?
I don’t even want to do it or think about it.
That being said, when an old friend comes to your door, of course you can't let your apprentice push the person out.
In order to cheer up his spirit, someone let the cold wind outside the window wash his mind to clear his mind.
My old friend is William Greco, the White Swordsman whom I haven't seen for a long time. He is still the same as before, dressed in white clothes, and his whole body is spotless.
His temperament is more feminine, but it is not that effeminate feeling. Instead, he is restrained and will sway when the wind blows. But everyone who comes into contact with him will feel as if there is an invisible wall that separates him.
Between this person and the world.
Looking at such a person, one word comes to mind: extraordinary.
There are so-called extraordinary beings in the Mysterious Land. Anyone who transcends the mortal body, that is, who has crossed the peak that the original life level can reach, can be crowned with such a title. One of the most common characteristics is that the length of life is different from that of ordinary species.
Different. But this is not a characteristic that extraordinary people will definitely have.
However, 'refined' people are surprisingly rare, and it's not a recognized title or title, it's just a feeling.
Fen was one, and Stone, the former commander of the Dark Legion Guards who was resurrected and reshaped by her, was also one. William Greco, who appeared in front of Lin again, was the third one.
This white sword master did not have such a temperament in the past. Likewise, neither did the Demon Prince. But seeing him again this time, it was a completely different feeling from the past.
I don’t know if this change is related to the situation that someone once mentioned to him. Does this mean that William has made a breakthrough in the realm of the physical body?
I still remember the concept I mentioned to him at the beginning, which was the saying in martial arts novels about opening up the two channels of Ren and Du... Could it be that it was really opened to him?
But for now, I just said hello to William briefly and didn't ask about those things in detail. Because they were waiting aside for the guests who came with the white sword master. And these people, one and two, are very special. At least they all caused a stir.
get someone's attention.
William said nonchalantly: "These are friends I met in the East. Because they knew I was coming to find you, they followed me here."
Generally speaking, introducing someone to someone will cost you your favor. Sometimes the things that come out are more serious and may even implicate you. So if normal people dare to do this, usually both parties have a good relationship with him, so they dare to introduce like this.
If one of the parties is a casual acquaintance, it would be rude to be the introducer.
Think about a certain rich man who bought Buffett's dinner coupons and had a meal together. Then he relied on this relationship to introduce a relative who was beyond his reach to Buffett's door. If he didn't get shot three times by the security guard, even that
Old Man Ba is very polite.
But think about the character of this white sword master. To be honest, he was able to hang out with the Demon Prince Azad before because of more than just his strength. There is a saying that people are of the same species, and this is what William and Azad are talking about.
Two people. They are essentially the same kind of people, so they occasionally get together.
To put it more clearly, William Greco has his own way of doing things, and then completely ignores the opinions of others. Azad also has such a personality.
It's just that when encountering something that doesn't go his way, Azad will just pinch it. If it's okay, it's okay. If it dies, it means the other party is weak and unlucky. Don't expect the Demon Prince to deal with the aftermath or apologize, just kill him or bury him.
That's the kind of person.
As for William's lazy personality, as long as no one takes the initiative to endanger his life, he will not fight back. This is a decisive difference in their personalities.
It's that lazy part that unexpectedly fits someone...
In short, William brought people here. And it is estimated that the white swordsman didn't know what the other party's purpose was, and he didn't care. He was just passing by. The other party wanted to follow and was willing to follow, so he let them follow.
Lin wanted to ask clearly, but when William saw Kaya also entering the living room, he naturally came closer.
This is not because the white swordsman has any thoughts about his female apprentice. Someone doubts whether there is such a thing as a difference between men and women in William's mind. The reason why he came to Kaya was just for this
The female disciple made him a pot of coffee and drank a good cup of it.
It has only been less than ten years since someone discovered coffee in the Southwest Peninsula. In terms of roasting and cooking, someone who is a caffeine addict has extraordinary abilities, but even the crazy people can't catch up. And Kaya
This magic apprentice who is not doing his job has learned this skill thoroughly under the strict guidance of someone.
The point is, truly good coffee, as long as it is brewed well, does not only have a bitter taste. Just like truly good tea, as long as it is not brewed carelessly, it does not only have an astringent taste.
William, who drank the coffee as water, was busy with Kaya, and ignored the guests he brought. Lin smiled awkwardly, gave everyone a magician's salute, and greeted everyone: "Everyone.
Ann, I am the magician Guy Blasch Tripwood. I don’t know your names yet.”
A certain sword master could carelessly ignore people. As the master of this family, Lin certainly couldn't do the same. Besides, he was also very curious about the origins of the group of people in front of him.
The leader was a nobleman, Count Guha from the Haider Empire. He brought several black-clothed attendants and stood quietly behind him, like stone and wood sculptures.
The earl himself wore a gorgeous costume that was different from the style of the Gowana Empire. Layers of fine embroidery and lace decorated the middle-aged earl like a peacock in full bloom. Moreover, the earl was also flying.
Captain of the airship Pune.
Speaking of the fifth largest empire, except for the one in the north, I already know people in the other four. Is this considered a vast empire? Someone thought to himself.
But compared to the Earl of Haider Empire and his attendants, Lin was really interested in the remaining few.
She was dressed in turquoise silk, with neither Chinese nor Western styles. There was no elaborate embroidery, just a few gold and silver threads, outlining the pattern of a lotus pond. A thin and transparent veil covered half of her face.
Only black hair and black eyes were exposed, but the corners of his eyes were charming and sparkling, and his eyes seemed to be able to enchant people's soul.
This beauty claimed to be the princess of the Kingdom of Silk, and he could call her the new capital. Listening to this name, Lin felt that it was not like an ordinary name, but more like a title.
In addition to the princess, what is even more eye-catching are the three entourage-like figures behind her. One of them is wearing a straight train, covered with a thin goose-yellow Zen robe, a jade-encrusted belt, a bun in her hair, and a jade hairpin inserted horizontally.
The other two were wearing plain turbans, one gray and one blue, with short haori and striped hakama, and long daggers on their waists. If they had been here again, someone would have thought that the Japanese and Japanese samurai had traveled through time. Fortunately, they were not.
However, such a group of clothes with obvious styles, one Han and two harmonious, in the eyes of outsiders are just fancy clothes; in the eyes of a certain time traveler, it is some incredible evidence. I am really not alone, it is just that the time is not right!
The man's name in Hanfu is Wang Chao, one of the princess's guards. Hearing this name, someone really wants to ask if he has a dead brother or colleague named Ma Han...
The other two people, one is named Yusuke Ito and the other is Kazunosuke Kuwata. In addition to serving as the princess's bodyguards, they also have other duties in the Kingdom of Silk.
It's just that these three men don't have any characteristics of the yellow race. They have deep facial features, dark brown hair and brown eyes. According to the standards of the earth, they are close to Central Asia or even West Asia. Anyway,
It just doesn't match their clothes and names.
It can be said that in addition to cultural characteristics such as clothes and names, perhaps the human race has long been infiltrated by the fascination. Even the princess protected by them still looks like the one in memory, although she has more Asian characteristics on Earth.
Just like those mixed-race beauties.
This may mean that even if their origins are the same as mine, they may have happened several generations ago. How many things from their hometown do these people still inherit?
Although at the moment, Lin still held on to a glimmer of hope, wanting to test whether these people were the first generation time travellers, and which dynasty they came from. However, from the moment they met, these three men acted like
With a stinky face, it seems like everyone who sees it owes them a lot of money.
At first, Lin thought this was just the stern expression of the princess guards. But after talking with each other, he realized that they were indeed unhappy and had no intention of hiding it at all, which is why they showed it so bluntly on their faces. At least when someone asked
Sometimes, the other party's perfunctory attitude is very obvious.
In line with the attitude of not forcing one's hot face to stick to the cold butt, since the other party is unhappy, then one does not need to bother to please the other party. Anyway, the protagonists are the Earl of Haider Empire and the princess of the Kingdom of Silk. No matter what they think in their hearts
, his outward attitude was not that bad, allowing this social chat to continue.
However, during the conversation, they did not hide much about the origin of the Kingdom of Silk. Almost as soon as Lin asked, it might be the princess or Count Guha, they would answer one or two.
That was six or seven hundred years ago, when the Haider Empire was still just the Kingdom of Haider. Several powerful fighting families appeared out of thin air in the Eastern Continent of the Lost World. These families wore strange costumes and armors and used unprecedented martial arts.
