Chapter 20: The first meeting of the cat and the deer
"Your Highness, shall we take a boat to Nori?"
"Call me brother." Xavier lowered his eyes, blocking his gem-like ice blue eyes.
Yeluo's voice was very soft and crisp, like raindrops caressing the glass, and the pattering was very sweet. Instead, she drove suddenly at the port of Xuansiti. Along the way, many businessmen turned around to look for this little boy.
Loli's voice.
"Brother Xavier..."
"My name is Xiwei."
Xavier dropped off a few gingas in a port grocery store, and the shopkeeper graciously brought up a sailing leather hat and a shabby sailor uniform.
Yinjia, this young master actually paid with Yinjia! The shopkeeper was so open-mouthed. These old second-hand sailor uniforms were no more than ten Tonglings at most. He had seen many instances of young aristocratic young men living in Xuansiti rebellious and running away.
, but this is the first time I have seen such a generous one.
The long hat brim was gently pressed down, blocking half of Xavier's handsome face. Taking off his aristocratic clothes, Xavier now looked more like a young and immature sailor, looking forward to the mystery of the sea.
"Xi...Xiwei?" Ye Luo raised her head in confusion. This name is more like that of a girl. Why does His Highness still have this name?
Could it be that His Highness is a girl? Ye Luo's heterochromatic pupils were slightly dilated. She raised her head and looked at the young His Highness the Earl. The pale and delicate face, the slender eyelashes were slightly raised, and the ice blue pupils were even more beautiful.
A feminine beauty.
Her body is also very thin. Although she is more than a head and a half taller than herself, she looks so gentle... Ye Luo held the sleeve next to her slender white hand. Although it was dirty, she didn't mind at all.
Xavier's face also became strange, reflecting the surrounding lights. He saw that the little Loli's face was getting more and more strange, with a curious look and bulging cheeks.
Was there some misunderstanding... Xavier smiled bitterly: "A misunderstanding."
…
"Hey, you know, we often can't find anything in the kitchen of Rose Castle recently!" On a snowy winter night, a maid who was keeping watch fearfully lit the last candle and said to her companions.
"I've also heard that it can't be a ghost, it's transparent and can float around..."
"No, stop talking Sarah, hurry up and finish cleaning the castle, let's go back to the room!"
"I'm a little scared when you say that, hurry up!"
The maid's voice gradually faded away, and the bright candlelight in their hands took away the last ray of light in the darkness.
The whole castle fell silent, the winter night was very cold, and you could still see the winding frost flowers and heavy snow outside the window.
"Hey...why is there another person here? Really, why don't you keep silent!"
The blond girl screamed, and several of the Shiraki fruits she held in her hand fell down.
"Sweet potato?" In the dark shadows, a short boy walked out. He frowned, with delicate features like white porcelain, and wore thin clothes.
"Huh... I thought I was discovered, but it turned out to be a child." The girl took a deep breath, squatted down and pocketed the fallen Shiraki Ze fruit in her skirt.
"And this is Shiraki Zeguo, Shiraki Zeguo, what the hell is white potato? Even if it's the way you say it in your hometown, this is the great Deniyabo, so you will be laughed at by other servants!"
"Servant?" The boy raised his head in confusion. Only then did Yekarena realize that he actually had ice-blue eyes like clear gems, and she was stunned for a moment.
"Yes, yes, aren't you a servant of the new Rose Castle? Where do you care? Since it is fate once you see it, do you like eating Shiraki fruits? Can I share some with you?"
Yekarena's eyes curled up, like a little fox.
Finally, she tilted her head and thought for a while: "But you have to call me sister. From now on in Rose Castle... No, Danny, sister will protect you!"
"It's so annoying." Xavier glanced at Yekarena indifferently. This is obviously a sweet potato! It's just a different name. Sure enough, this world is no different from the past!
"Um...what's your name?" Yekarena's expression was a little angry. She was obviously a little boy killer! She worked hard to straighten out her breasts that were beginning to develop. Although she was still very young, she was a natural beauty.
It's enough to overwhelm noble young men.
Why didn’t the other party look at me twice at all?
"Xiwei, what about you?" Xavier thought for a while.
"Anel, I'm the new maid, in charge of the Duke's food and accommodation." Yekarena approached Xavier and shook the copper key.
"I'm jealous! Call me sister and I'll take you to dinner from now on!" Then she pinched Xavier's cheek while he wasn't paying attention.
"So cute..."
There was a trace of amusement in Xavier's eyes. He had been in this world for so long and no one had seen him call out "Your Highness" disrespectfully, but this girl dared to scratch his face like this.
In this case...
"Okay, sister Anael. My name is Xiwei, and I am in charge of the stables. From now on, sister will have to protect me!" Xavier tried his best to suppress his laughter and keep his serious and sincere eyes.
"Tch, don't believe me, little Xiwei, you can share half of these Baimuze fruits. We can jump out of the window on the third floor of the castle and slide down along the drainage pipe leading from the top of the terrace."
"Be sure to keep your voice down so you don't get discovered!"
"Brother Xiwei, it's our turn!"
Ye Luo's voice brought Xavier back from his memory. She tugged at the hem of Xavier's clothes and looked timidly at the guards in front of him.
"Attention citizens traveling to Norway, we have just received a special wanted order from the Holy Church. Extremely dangerous heretics will take a ship from Xuansiti Port to Norway, so we need to step up investigations to find the heretics!
"
"Please forgive me."
"Sir, please pass me the parchment of your ferry ticket. Why are you going to Nori?" The man standing in front of Xavier lowered his head and handed over the parchment respectfully.
"The villain is a businessman and has food dealings with the cities around Noli. This is some reward..." The man secretly pushed a gold dragon into the guard's hand with a smile on his face.
"Okay, let's go."
The guard remained motionless, looked to the side, and put Jin Long into his armor's pouch.
For one gold dragon, a guard can earn up to seventy or eighty silver coins a year, but this businessman actually gave him a gold dragon casually!
Maybe he is the person on the wanted order, maybe what he is taking to Norway is something that violates trade laws. But what does this have to do with him?
"Next, you, boy, you are a sailor..." The guard frowned. The young man in front pulled a little girl. The cold aura that could not be concealed by the shabby sailor uniform made him shiver.
"Be accommodating." Xavier lowered the brim of his hat and raised the collar of his sailor uniform.
"Tsk, this won't work..."
"Swish, swish," the guard's voice suddenly stopped. He didn't know when there was a bag of Jinlong in his hand. The gorgeous golden color was so dazzling even in the dark. The guard was stunned, and then he felt ecstasy in his heart.
.
"An old friend suffered an accident in Nori. My sister and I went to see him for the last time." Xavier said in a low voice.
"I understand, my condolences." The guard nodded fiercely, his hands trembling a little. This is a bag of gold dragons. If you feel the weight, it can't be a hundred pieces, right?
Xavier took Yeluo's hand and walked towards the huge wooden ladder of the ship. The ship docked at the port, and the bustling crowd got on board in an orderly manner. People who passed the inspection gradually boarded the huge ship.
The sound of the tide roared, and the first long blast of the trumpet blew from afar.
"..." Xavier suddenly stopped, and Ye Luo could feel his body beginning to tense up, and his knuckled fingers exerting force unconsciously.
No, there must be something wrong! Xavier bit his lower lip, and he did not dare to take a step forward.
"Bang" a man in black robe suddenly bumped into him from behind. His body was like a hill, and at over two meters tall, he looked like a bear.
"Sorry." The man gave Xavier a stiff look and passed him by.
The sea breeze blew up his torn black robe, revealing the short-barreled fire gun pinned to his waist. The pitch-black gun barrel had extremely complex patterns, like an ancient dragon carved on it.
Templar Dragoons, the only unit among the Seven Templar Knights that use fire blunderbuss!
