Chapter 23 Trouble
Chapter 23 Trouble
==============
Lin Qiao didn't expect the development of things to be like this, and left the church as if fleeing.
On the way back to the tavern, he kept thinking about one thing—whether he should go back to Wangcheng with Andy.
Because of the coexistence of theocracy and kingship, the Holy Court of Light is also in the royal city, and this pope is said to be the mortal who is closest to the gods.
Arthur is a devil. If you take Arthur with you to the royal city, you may not even enter the city gate, so you would like to mention the gallows package.
He was worried if he didn't take Arthur with him.
But Wangcheng is always going. The brand on his body and the missing part of his memory must have something to do with the Holy Court of Light.
While hesitating, Lin Qiao returned to the tavern.
When I went upstairs, as soon as I opened the door, I met a pair of dark eyes.
The pupils of the eyes are deep and calm, as if all light sources are absorbed into them, making it difficult to escape.
Lin Qiao's eyes flashed.
Arthur sat obediently by the window, as if he still maintained the posture when he left, and didn't even move.
"Arthur..."
Before the words fell, Arthur was already close at hand.
The setting sun shines outside the window.
Arthur's figure shrouded him, directly blocking all the light sources.
Only then did Lin Qiao realize that Arthur was so tall.
His height is not short among his peers.But in this world, these people are getting taller than each other. The tallest person I have seen along the way is a warrior with orc blood in the tavern. When I stand up, it is estimated to be three meters high, like a hill.
But unexpectedly, Arthur was also a bit taller than him.
Arthur's eyebrows and eyes were handsome and deep, with a kind of ignorant calm.His shoulders were broad, and his figure looked slender, but his body under the clothes was thin and powerful, like the most perfect statue in the hands of a craftsman.
Arthur...was a man.
It was the first time that Lin Qiao realized this so clearly.
In the past, Lin Qiao always treated Arthur as a younger brother or a child.After all, Arthur was pure and ignorant, he couldn't even speak clearly, so it was difficult to regard him as an independent person.
But now, Lin Qiao felt a sense of oppression on Arthur.
It's like an adult lion patrolling the territory, leaving a domineering mark on every corner.
This is inherent possessiveness.
Lin Qiao's heart tightened, and he subconsciously took a step back.
At some point, the door behind him was closed tightly, and as soon as he retreated like this, he hit the door panel with a "bang".
Lin Qiao: Something is wrong.
His eyelashes fluttered, and he tentatively asked, "Arthur, what's wrong with you?"
Arthur lowered his head, the hair on his forehead was shaking slightly, and his eyes were carefully inspecting the black-haired boy in front of him.
From the bright eyes to the small bridge of the nose, from the moist corners of the lips to the rounded earlobes... Finally, the gaze settled on one side of the cheek.
"Here..." he said slowly, "it smells like someone else."
Lin Qiao's neck was a little itchy, and he shrank to one side.After hearing Arthur's words, he deliberately lowered his head and took a sniff.
"What smell, why didn't I smell it?"
Lin Qiao didn't smell it, and when he raised his eyelids, he saw Arthur's expression was serious and stubborn, he didn't look like he was joking.
Lin Qiao's lips moved, and she really wanted to ask: "With such a good nose, does it belong to a dog?"
Arthur held out his hand: "Here."
His fingers were cold, touching the skin on his cheek, slowly stroking.
Lin Qiao felt that the atmosphere was really weird and wanted to avoid it.
But Arthur's fingers were tightly bound, preventing him from moving.
Lin Qiao's breathing became disordered for a while: "Arthur, let go."
Fortunately, Arthur let go of his hand obediently.
Before Lin Qiao could relax, he felt a strong aggression coming over him.
"Well!"
Arthur kissed him.
There is no other place to kiss, but the piece of skin that Andy once touched.
Lin Qiao panicked: "Arthur, what are you doing—"
He stretched out his hand to push it away, but Arthur remained motionless, slowly covering up the nasty breath with his lips and teeth.
Arthur did it very seriously, he didn't even close his eyes, and just left his mark slowly.
He didn't raise his head until his breath dissipated.
Lin Qiao's skin was already tender, and a slight pinch would leave marks.Now after being sucked like this, sucked and bitten, it looks like a ripe apple, with a rosy white inside and a sweet smell.
Arthur stared at the spot and released his hand in satisfaction.
Once Lin Qiao regained his freedom, he covered his cheek with his hand.
There was a burning pain on the cheek, rubbed it, but it didn't go away.
He was angry and annoyed: "Arthur!"
Arthur looked innocent.
Lin Qiao gritted her teeth: "From now on...don't do this anymore."
Arthur didn't refuse the request, but just made a request: "Jojo, don't go to meet people you hate."
Lin Qiao: ...
What Arthur hates = Holy Court of Light
Disgusting people = People of the Holy Court of Light
What this means is that as long as he doesn't go to see these people and is not contaminated with the breath of light, Arthur will never do such a thing again.
This requirement is a bit difficult.
But Arthur's expression was serious and stubborn, obviously there was no room for bargaining.
Lin Qiao: ...All right.
You will be kissed once you are kissed, and you will not lose a piece of meat.
That's what she thought in her heart, but Lin Qiao always felt her cheeks were burning hot, and she couldn't calm down no matter what.He licked the corners of his dry lips and changed the subject: "Arthur, can others find out that you are a devil?"
Arthur: "No."
As long as he doesn't want to, he can't find out that he is a demon.
Because, strictly speaking, he is not a purebred demon.
It's just that this body is in the form of a demon. In fact, he is the incarnation of the abyss.
Unless the power of darkness is used, only another god can see through his disguise.
Lin Qiao hesitated: "If..."
Arthur listened quietly.
Lin Qiao: "I mean if—— I'm going to the royal city, is there a way for you not to be discovered by the people of the Holy Court of Light?"
Arthur didn't seem to understand what this meant.
Lin Qiao explained: "The headquarters of the Holy Court of Light is in Wangcheng, and the Pope is there. It is said that he is very powerful..."
I don't know what Arthur thought of, his eyes lit up slightly, and he agreed: "Okay."
Lin Qiao: "That is to say... wait, I haven't finished."
Arthur should have said, "I will go wherever Jojo goes."
His eyes are focused and serious, wholeheartedly, as if what he sees is all he has.
Lin Qiao: ...What's the matter with suddenly feeling guilty?
Presumably he was the first person Arthur had ever met, and Arthur had a fledgling affection for him.
In Arthur's eyes, he was the whole world.
But for him, Arthur is not his all.
In this way, the relationship between the two parties is not equal, and problems are prone to occur.
Lin Qiao thought for a while and said, "Arthur, I can say whatever I want." He encouraged, "You have to have your own ideas."
Arthur has learned most of the human language, but this sentence is still too complicated for him.
He expressed himself with difficulty: "My thoughts are... Jojo."
Lin Qiao: "..."
It seemed that Arthur didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Lin Qiao: "I'm not an idea!"
Arthur rarely showed a serious look: "Yes."
Lin Qiao: "I mean, you should have a more specific idea." He didn't know what the devil was thinking, so he had to give an example to explain, "For example, yesterday's bread was delicious, you still want to eat it ;The jewels you saw on the road are beautiful, you really want to..."
Arthur taught himself: "I know."
Lin Qiao was dubious: "Are you sure you know?"
Arthur nodded.
He got it.
Jojo is so sweet and soft, he still wants to kiss her.
Jojo is very beautiful, and he wants to keep it well, so that no annoying people can see it.
All in all, he wanted...Jojo.
Seeing Arthur's understanding expression, Lin Qiao patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him, "Since you have what you want, then you can do it instead of following me all the time."
Arthur said slowly, "...OK."
……
Early the next morning.
The Knights of Light have an urgent mission, and after finishing their team, they are ready to leave the city of Por.
Among the group of knights who were ready to go, Lin Qiao seemed out of place among them.
Lin Qiao stood on tiptoe, trying to find Andy.
But after looking around, I didn't see Andy.
Lin Qiao: Shouldn't you be pigeonholed?
At this moment, a knight came over and looked down at Lin Qiao contemptuously: "Are you the Joe that Captain Andy said?"
Lin Qiao nodded.
Knight: "Follow me."
Lin Qiao followed behind the knight and came to the end of the line.
There were some priests in white robes, and several carriages, one of which was particularly ornate, with a round of gems inlaid on the wheels.
Lin Qiao couldn't help but take another look.
The knight raised his finger and pointed to the carriage at the end, and said bluntly, "Stay in there, and don't come out if you have nothing to do."
Lin Qiao had no objection.
Although Arthur said that he would not be seen as a demon, it was like a ticking time bomb. It was always unsafe to keep around, and it was best to hide in a place with few people.
Without saying a word, he dragged Arthur into the carriage.
Not long after going up, the team started to set off.
The carriage moved slowly, its wheels rumbling across the ground.
At the beginning, the ground was fairly flat, but when we got outside the city, the road was uneven, and even the carriage couldn't stop shaking.
Lin Qiao couldn't sit still and was almost kicked out.Holding the seat tightly, he opened the window and looked out.
All the way to the east of Paul City is the direction where the king city is located. During the period, it will also go through the territories of other nobles. Not only the journey is long, but it will not only be attacked by monsters, but also may be poisoned by dark warlocks.
Of course, with a golden signboard as big as the God of Light placed here, if the dark magician dared to come up, he probably wanted to reincarnate in a car.
The wheels of the carriage were probably possessed by demons. In less than half an hour, the city of Paol had been left far behind, and even the shadow could not be seen.
Now there is a flat field outside, and there is a red windmill standing there at a certain distance. When the wind blows, the green wheat seedlings shake.
The team kept moving forward until the evening of the second day before stopping to rest.
Some people are camping, some are replenishing the magic stones for the enchanted formation on the carriage, and the camp is busy.
Lin Qiao asked Arthur to stay in the carriage, and went down to see the situation by himself.
Not long after he walked out, he was misunderstood, thought to be an attendant in the team, and was dragged to help.
Lin Qiao wanted to explain, but that person was in a hurry and didn't even give him a chance to speak.
He changed his mind and thought that he could just go over to find out the news, so he kept silent and followed the man to the middle of the team.
That person instructed: "You take this, and this..."
Lin Qiao obeyed the command and picked up the things.
That person: "Take it to Princess Dolly."
Lin Qiao was taken aback.
Is Princess Dolly also in the team?
Before he had time to think about it, he walked in with the tray.
There are probably some bottles and jars on the tray, and you must concentrate on it so as not to overturn it. In addition, Lin Qiao is not Princess Dori's attendant, so she lowered her head and walked in quickly for fear of being discovered. .
Princess Dolly is in the carriage.
Naturally, the princess's carriage was different from the one he was sitting in. It was covered with space formations, and looked like an ordinary carriage from the outside, but after entering it, I realized that it was as big as a room.
The interior is covered with cashmere carpets and hung with silk curtains. Instead of lighting with gas lamps, it is inlaid with large bright stones.
Lin Qiao unconsciously lightened his steps.
If one or half of them were damaged, they wouldn't be able to pay for it if they sold him.
He put down the tray and couldn't wait to go.
As soon as he straightened up, he heard small conversations coming from behind the curtain.
"The Holy See of Abundance..."
"This time I will definitely not let it go..."
"Knight Commander Andy, I need you to worry about it..."
Lin Qiao: Dessert?What snacks?
He wanted to hear more clearly, and walked lightly towards the curtain.
As soon as he walked in, the voice over there stopped abruptly, and a figure opened the curtain and walked out. While walking, the mithril armor bumped and made a crisp sound.
Lin Qiao quickly lowered her head, pretending to be passing by.
Andy's footsteps stopped for a moment.
Lin Qiao didn't dare to look up.
Andy snorted coldly, full of hostility: "Go back to where you should go, don't stay here!"
After speaking, he went out.
Lin Qiao couldn't wish for it, and wanted to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, but just moved, another order came from the other side: "You, come here."
Lin Qiao hesitated for a moment, not sure if she was calling him.
Princess Dolly chuckled, "Of course it's you."
Lin Qiao bit the bullet and walked over, feeling a gaze looking up and down.He wanted to explain that he didn't come in on purpose, but was mistaken and pulled the young man over to help.
But unexpectedly, Princess Dolly didn't seem to recognize him, and ordered: "I have something for you to do." She said slowly, "There is a village nearby, and there are people who are sick. You and the priests go there to help cure."
Lin Qiao: "Huh?"
Princess Dolly's face turned cold: "Go soon."
Lin Qiao got out of the carriage in a daze, and was dragged into the ranks of the priests.
In fact, he really wanted to say that he didn't believe in the God of Light, but in the current situation, if he dared to yell like that, he probably wouldn't be able to see the sun tomorrow.
But fortunately, I heard from the priests that the people in the village have some minor illnesses, which will be resolved soon, so that the departure time will not be delayed.
……
The sky gradually darkened.
Princess Dolly pushed open the pane and watched the group of figures disappear into the night.
She picked up a bright stone, and said to herself: "The commander of Andy is too soft-hearted, such a trouble is still around, why not take advantage of this opportunity..." She pinched it hard, and the bright stone shattered on the ground. He clapped his palm, "Solve it soon."
