The furious Earl Macdonald walked outside the castle and kicked a piece of bark on the ground more than ten meters away.
"Your Majesty, your feet are very strong," the attendant said with a smile.
"What's the use of this? You losers, you've been searching for hours in the eldest prince's castle and still can't find anyone or anything!" He punched the attendant on the cheek to vent his emotions.
The attendant covered his face with his right hand in grievance, and said pitifully: "Your Highness, I think the eldest prince did nothing. You guessed wrong from the beginning."
Earl Marton was even more angry. He waved his right hand and slapped the attendant on the left cheek: "Then you are even more rubbish. You can't even look down on a small hut, and you let all the people and things guarding it disappear."
Fly away! Now I don’t even know who is entering the hut!”
"Uh-huh, Your Highness, you can't blame me. We have laid so many traps. Who knew there would be someone so powerful that he could take away Khalil and his things alive."
"I still think there is something wrong with the eldest prince. I have a vague feeling that he lied. Let's go to Night Town now and ask the people there if the eldest prince has ever been there."
"Yes, Your Highness, it will be clear after asking."
They rode quickly and soon arrived at Night Town. Count Madoner grabbed a passerby and asked in a fierce tone: "Did the eldest prince come here yesterday?"
The passerby was so frightened that he could not speak and stared at him in panic.
"Useless thing." He said in disgust, throwing the poor passerby on the ground, and then went to the roasted sweet potato shop and grabbed the shop owner's collar, "Hey, did the eldest prince come to Nightfall Town yesterday?"
The shop owner was also startled by him and asked in surprise: "Sir, what did you say? The eldest prince? Isn't the eldest prince the lord of Daybreak Town? Why did he come to us?"
"Don't call me sir, I am Earl Macdonald, call me your Earl!"
"Ah, it turns out you are our lord, His Highness Earl Marton!" The shopkeeper was very panicked and quickly packed his clothes neatly.
"Hmph, you commoners don't know yet, but Yemu Town has now become the territory of the great prince. Someone will officially inform you in a few days."
"What? You mean, the eldest prince is our lord? This is really unbelievable, after all, you have been our lord for several years."
"Stop talking about this, tell me quickly, did the eldest prince come here yesterday?"
"He's not here. He is a lord after all. If he comes to this town, everyone will know about it."
"It turns out he really didn't come here."
Earl Marton let go of the shopkeeper and after leaving the shop, he murmured to himself: "Since it was not the eldest prince who did it, then who broke into the hut?"
"Who knows." The attendant spread his hands and sighed.
"This matter is very important. If the king knows about it, we will probably be executed!" Madoner angrily beat the poor attendant, "You are still here making sarcastic remarks, you idiot, you will be dead even if I die.
Can’t survive!”
The attendant covered his head and whispered: "Your Highness, what should we do now?"
"Of course it's up to you to investigate! Let's see who is so powerful that he broke into the hut and took away Khalil and his things!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
On this day, since Earl Macdonald left, Werther spent a peaceful day in Daybreak Town. In the afternoon of the next day, Tom handed him a letter, which was sent by the Earl of Brookstone.
"Witt, my lovely nephew, I don't know how you are doing lately. I am doing pretty well lately, haha. What I want to tell you is that I have received the things you asked Khalil to bring.
Yesterday afternoon, Khalil fainted in front of my castle. My guard informed me. I walked out of the castle and saw the emerald, diary and your money bag on him. I thought he had stolen it from you.
He was about to ask the guards to send him to the dungeon, but he suddenly
Ran woke up, muttering that he wanted to give me the tokens and evidence.
I realized that this matter was not simple, so I ordered my servants to take care of him. He woke up at night and told me the whole thing. Only then did I learn that Duke Dark was trying to find the Dragon Clan, and that Earl Macdonald came to you.
The castle makes things difficult for you.
I also learned that Khalil ran a long way and spent all his money on the carriage after finding it. He didn't even eat, so he fainted from exhaustion and hunger when he arrived in front of my castle. You are really
Because of his carelessness, he only had one silver coin and a dozen iron coins in his purse. Haha, no wonder he had no money to eat after taking the carriage.
I have put away the diary and the emerald, and let Khalil live peacefully in my castle. Don’t worry, I will order someone to take good care of him, but I don’t know what your next plan is?"
After reading the content of the letter, Werther breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Carrier arrived at the castle in Brookstone safely, otherwise he would have felt guilty for a long time.
Since Uncle Er Wang sent him a letter, he must also reply to him.
He took a pen, ink and paper and slowly wrote on the paper about continuing to find other evidence for Duke Dark, as well as his greetings to their family.
"Uncle Tom, help me mail the letter."
"Yes, Your Highness."
After Tom left, Werther leaned on the sofa, thinking about what would happen next. Maybe he didn't need to take the initiative to find evidence, he just needed to pay attention. If Duke Dark really wanted to do something bad, he would definitely leave evidence.
Lina woke up at this time, yawned and walked out of the room, walked to Werther, and stared at him motionless.
"Well, it's only two o'clock. Have you slept enough?"
"Of course I didn't sleep enough, but I just had a terrible nightmare and I didn't dare to sleep anymore. I wanted to come out and drink some blood."
"Well, the animal blood is in the warehouse, but it's sunny outside now. Do you need me to get it for you?"
"No, I'll just put on my hat. I only have a few minutes outside anyway."
"Wait for me for a while."
Werther quickly ran to the warehouse, got fresh blood for her, poured it into a cup thoughtfully, and placed it in front of her.
Linna's eyes lit up, she picked up the cup, turned her back quickly, and started drinking.
After drinking, her back looked lonely and she sighed softly.
"Lina, what's wrong with you?" Werther tried to walk to her.
"Don't come here!" Lina continued to twist her body to avoid Werther's eyes, "I don't want you to see me just drinking blood. I feel terrible about myself at this time."
"Well, what does it matter? You are a vampire. If you don't drink blood, you will die!" Werther comforted her, "I don't care about you drinking animal blood."
Lina's shoulders trembled slightly, and she slowly turned around, staring at Werther with extremely gentle eyes. Her face seemed much better than before drinking blood: "Do you really not care?"
"Of course, you are a kind vampire."
"But I care about this very much. Probably because I have lived with humans for a long time, and I feel that drinking blood is scary."
Werther deliberately showed an innocent smile: "Don't think so much, why don't you sit in the carriage and I will drive you around the town."
"Huh?" Linna's face turned slightly red, "Is this a date?"
"No, no, I just want to take you out to see the scenery during the day." Werther stood up sheepishly, put his hands behind his head, and walked towards the gate of the castle, "Just put on your hat and come out, I'm very happy
The carriage will be ready soon."
The weather is a bit warm today. If you wear a cloak, you don't have to fasten the buttons tightly, and the air will not make your nose dry and painful.
Some withered grass lay quietly on the ground. It can be seen that there is no wind today, the soil is a little moist, and the cracked branches are stained with water droplets, which actually gives people an atmosphere of imminent spring.
"Well, it's just now
It’s just February, it’s so warm, and there’s dew on the trees!” Werther pulled the carriage to the front of the castle, looked at the big tree in front of him, and murmured to himself, “Strange, it’s not March or April.
Is it just spring?”
Linna was walking out of the castle. She squinted her eyes to prevent the sun from hurting her eyes. She also saw those water droplets. She smiled softly and said, "These are obviously caused by very fine snowflakes. Those snowflakes
When it falls on the branches and the ground, it instantly turns into snow, and besides, it’s already afternoon, how can there be still dew.”
"Haha, you're right~ I was so excited just now that I actually said these stupid things." Witte scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, "Now there are only very small snowflakes falling in Daybreak Town. I don't know when it will get a heavy snowfall."
.”
"It should be soon." Lina said softly.
He opened the car door, waited for Lina to get in, then sat in the driver's seat and took her in the direction of the town.
Arriving in front of a house, he slowly stopped the carriage, and Lina gently opened the curtain. They saw that the workers were repairing the dilapidated parts of the house in an orderly manner, with skillful movements, and the repaired parts seemed to be new.
.
"I'm so lucky, their craftsmanship is very good." Werther said to Lina happily.
"Haha~" Lina covered her mouth and laughed.
"What's wrong with you? Did I do something funny?"
"What I want to know is~" Lina lowered her head slightly, pursed her lips slightly, and rolled her eyes with a smile, "Do you really just want to take me to see these, where is the promised scenery?"
"This should be considered a scenery." Werther blurted out stupidly. Only after he finished speaking did he realize what scenery Lina was referring to, "Ah, are you talking about natural scenery?"
"That's not it." Lina still smiled shyly.
At this time, the sky suddenly turned cloudy, and the originally bright sunshine was covered by dark clouds. For Lina, the sunshine at this time was not too dazzling. She tied the string of her hat tightly, suddenly stood up from her seat, and walked to
In front, sitting next to Werther, he took the reins in his hand and smiled at him: "You are not the only one who can drive. I will take you to an interesting place."
"Huh?" This time it was Werther who blushed.
As the sound of horse hooves sounded, Lina drove forward, and the wind blew Werther's hair. The speed surprised him. It took him a long time to say: "There are piles of rocks ahead, be careful!"
As if in a dream, Werther and Lina were so close that they seemed to be able to hear each other's heartbeats. Werther kept looking at Lina, but she was just concentrating on driving.
I don't know how long it took, but when I came back to my senses, they were already in a wasteland.
"This is?" Werther looked at the scenery in front of him in surprise.
Although there is no grass growing, the stones here have been carved into strange shapes by the accumulated wind and sand. The broad field of vision is modified just right by the stones, which will not give people a sense of fear. The distant mountains are covered with layers of snow.
, the sound of the stream not far away is like ancient wind chimes, constantly telling the story of this ground.
What brings beauty here is not the plants, flowers, or palace courtyards, but the ultimate sense of openness and isolation, waiting for travelers to write and poets to sing.
"Although there is no vegetation, it is so moving." Werther said softly.
"Every time I fly at night, I come here to take a look. The night view here is very beautiful. I thought maybe it is also beautiful during the day. It is indeed the case today." Linna said with a lonely smile on her face.
, it seems to have an aesthetic that goes well with the scenery.
After watching for a long time, Witte suddenly said: "It's cloudy now, why don't we wait here to see if there will be a heavy snow today. If it doesn't snow today, then we will agree to come together when it snows heavily.
Come here to enjoy the scenery.”
"Yes!" Lina nodded vigorously, her smiling eyes seemed to be wet with mist. The scene in her dream was like this, with the boy she liked, in such a place, the two people's hearts were getting closer and closer.
