Poison Tongue and Sleepy Demon King

Because the interior of the cave was re-supported by Sades after it was destroyed, the previous earth wall on the other side of the cave has also disappeared.Devich walked along the cave passages for a period of time with Saad Ess, and as expected, he found that the range of these caves and passages was astonishingly large, and each cave used different and quite ingenious ways to separate the passages. The traces of the cave are so well covered that even if someone enters the cave by mistake, it is basically impossible to find that the cave is connected to other places.

"So you knew everything from the beginning, didn't you?" After observing all the details that could be observed, David Xi stood still in the middle of a certain cave, and turned to Saad Ess and asked.

"The behavior of 'knowing everything' is too broad, and it is difficult for me to give an accurate and reasonable answer." Saad Essian spread his hands with a smile, "For example, if you ask me if I know you at noon a week ago I definitely don't know what exactly I ate."

"Please don't avoid the topic casually."

"Okay, okay..." Sade Ace said helplessly, "Even if I know everything, so what? I don't seem to have the responsibility or the obligation to tell anyone, right?"

"Then you have no responsibility or obligation to help me along the way?" David Xi looked at him, paused, and asked again: "So if I didn't happen to appear in Seven Cities, and you didn't happen to be interested in me , do you plan to do something when the Seven Cities fall? Evacuate like ordinary people or simply disappear?"

Thaddeus glanced at him with a half-smile, "How can you be so sure that Seven Cities will fall?"

"I'm just making an analogy." Davidi shrugged his shoulders, then shook his head again, "Forget it, there's nothing if, anyway, I don't particularly want to know your answer. That's not important."

"It's really indifferent." Thaddeus raised his finger and poked David Xi's arms wrapped around his chest, "As a brave man with a bad temper and an upright character, he should scold me at this time and ask me why Wouldn’t it be more reasonable not to help innocent ordinary people?”

"I am a brave man. I may have a grumpy temper, and I may be regarded as honest, but I am not stupid, so you are right. You have no obligation or responsibility to protect any strangers around you." David Xi was silent for two seconds , and said: "Blindly claiming justice will only make the situation worse. Even if you don't think differently, any decision you make will not be wrong."

Sades looked at him and smiled for a while, then asked, "There should be a lot of people wanting your life in the imperial capital, right?"

"That's true, but why do you ask?"

"Because you can't control it at all." Saad Ace said, gently holding David Xi's forearm, "Because you are not the kind of upright knight who is particularly passionate, so they can't use such things as guarding the country." Although you know how to repay your kindness, you know better than anyone that those guys who are filled with your childhood memories are not your real relatives, so you will not swear to the death to defend their dignity or Life. Well... Simply put, they can't control any of your actions at all. No wonder they have been swallowing your temper for so many years, because as long as you want, you can go to other countries to continue to be treated respectfully ah."

"You can say that." David Xi raised his eyebrows, and added: "I didn't intend to betray the Baixiang Empire. This is the country that conceived me, and I have feelings for it. But even if I say this, those in the imperial capital Even the guys won't believe it, they always stubbornly believe that they don't have any control over me, so if I don't do something to show restraint, then I may instantly transform from the sharp blade in their hands to their greatest power at any time. threat."

"That's a very reasonable suspicion."

David Xi stopped answering, but grabbed Saad Aes' shoulder with his backhand, adjusted his stance slightly, and brought him back to the ground together, before saying: "Go back, I just felt a bad feeling Less energy fluctuations, it should be the arrival of the Knights of the Imperial Capital."

"Carry me on your back."

"..." Dai Weixi looked at him with rare helpless eyes.

Thaddeus laughed lightly for a while, then shook his head, grabbed David Xi's arm again, "Just take me with you, you don't have to carry it."

After returning to the open space just now, Dai Weixi had just stood firm when he saw those guys wearing black and gray warlock thin armor, with calm expressions and low-key behavior.

"May the gods favor you, David." The leader with a piece of cloth in the shape of a golden leaf inlaid on the shoulder of the armor lowered his head slightly to David, "Long time no see, how are you doing?"

"Blessed by the gods, Captain Gale." Devixi also lowered his head slightly in return, then glanced at the knight leader standing in front of them, and asked, "Have you guys talked?"

"I've already understood the situation." The squad leader nodded slightly, and then turned his gaze to Thadees, who had put on his hood like David Xi, "This really surprised me...I thought You never want to have a real companion unless the mission requires it."

"This is a collaborator I just met recently. He has a bad temper. Please don't disturb his mood, otherwise the consequences will be as serious as disturbing my mood." David Xi solved everything for Sades in a few words Trouble, and then continued: "I'm so glad that you can arrive so quickly, some knights other than you rush to the task every time as if their legs are covered with a layer of glue. Besides helping children learn to walk, they don’t have much work to do decently. But I haven’t had time to open the portal here to respond, how did you stabilize the exit?”

"There is a lot of energy nearby." The team leader retracted his gaze from Saad Ess, and explained, "I guess there may be troubles on your side, so I brought the portal scroll directly. Okay The abundant energy nearby quickly filled the portal and didn't keep us stuck in the gap between time and space for too long. That's not a good feeling."

David Xi nodded, "Since you have already understood the situation, I will not interfere anymore. I am no longer a member of the Knights, and I signed the treaty when I left, so strictly speaking, I did not interfere in the politics of the four countries or mutual The eligibility for such issues as whether the relationship has broken down, this action is considered to have crossed the jurisdiction."

"It doesn't matter." The team leader said, "It's not too much, because I understand that you only accepted the entrustment of hunting monsters at the beginning, and the ultimate purpose of all kinds of behaviors after that - including meeting with the lord alone. It is to protect the residents of the Seven Cities. Thank you for your willingness to do this for them, David Xi."

"In addition, my collaborator and I discovered some new problems just now." David Xi looked at the knight leader at the side again, and explained the situation in the cave and the problem of energy fluctuations.

The sub-captain listened with a serious expression and nodded, "I understand. Regarding the caves below the Seven Cities, we will immediately contact the construction experts and let them take a good look. As for the knowledge about energy, out of understanding For the respect of your anonymous collaborator, we will not ask any more questions. I will contact the Imperial Mages as soon as possible and let them assist in the analysis."

"Thank you for your understanding." After Dawei Xi politely gestured to him, he raised his right hand to waist height, waved it casually, turned and took two steps to the side, "Then I will leave the matter here to you, if you have any questions , please contact me immediately, and I will come over as soon as possible."

Seeing that he was about to leave, the head of the Knights quickly raised his hand to stop him, "Wait a minute."

David Xi stopped, looked back at him, and asked silently with his eyes.

"You should want to return to the Seven Cities now, right?" The head of the Knights frowned and looked at David Xi and Sades behind him, and suddenly sighed quite helplessly, saying: "I suggest that you still Leave immediately, and go to the next town or city to stay and rest."

"why?"

"When you went to investigate the cave just now, I took the time to contact the guards in the city. Although I don't know the reason, the news that the hero David Xi and his unidentified companions appeared not far outside the city has spread throughout the city. Now Residents in the entire town know that you, a guy who almost never appears in peaceful areas, has appeared secretly, and some people have even begun to speculate whether a war will break out quietly." The expression of the knight leader is still cold, but what he said But it seemed a lot softer, "You do have high popularity, David Xi, but I have to remind you that every position you have appeared in the past was...accompanied by wars and sacrifices. The residents worship you, if only Seeing you alone would surely be a pleasure to chat with their heroes."

"But if you know that the scope of the news that I have appeared has expanded to the extent of the whole city, it will be easy to passively generate public opinion and gossip, so that a trivial matter that was originally insignificant will be constantly reported into something beyond recognition, right?" David Hill nodded slightly, "I see, I'm leaving now."

"The head of the group reminded you to hide your identity when you went out." The sub-captain also had a somewhat helpless expression. He even reached out and patted David Xi's shoulder as a sign of comfort, "The rumors are very scary. When the words of the first person pass through the second person and reach the ears of the third person, it probably no longer means the original meaning.”

"The owner of the hotel has no reason to reveal my identity, otherwise the hotel would have been turned upside down by the time I stayed here for so many days." Dai Weixi was silent for a few seconds, "It was probably discovered when I was solving the monster request a few days ago. Yes."

Before he could continue recalling, Thaddeus's voice chuckled in his ear and said a few words: "When I met Mr. Black Ball just now, I was seen by the knights stationed in the city."

David Xi didn't look back at him. After searching through his memory for the scene at that time, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, it doesn't matter how I was discovered. I'll leave immediately."

The team leader stared at him for a few moments, raised his right hand, put his palm on his heart, lowered his head slightly, and gave his farewell blessing: "May the will of the gods be with you forever, and have a safe journey."

The leader of the Knights didn't say anything more, so after Daweixi finally explained a few words, he turned his head and checked the energy locks on the black ball and Lao Er again, and then walked back to Saad Ess, and He walked side by side to the north of the Seven Cities.

"It's really strange." After walking a certain distance, Thadees said with a smile, "I thought you would think of some new ways to organize a wonderful taunt before leaving."

"... Forget it." Devixi replied, "It's better to leave those taunts to you, it's too wasteful to put them on."

"Oh...that makes sense, there are only two of us left." Sades said in a teasing tone, "Collaborator?"

"To be honest, I can't remember how many transactions we have made." David Xi squinted at him, "Which one is really cashed out?"

"It seems not."

"Huh..." Davidi snorted a syllable in a nasal voice, walked in silence for a while, and then said: "The next section between Legend College and Qicheng Road should be Qiyi Town, are you sure you want to go with me? ?”

"Huh? Did you forget that I am still responsible for paying your hotel expenses?" Thadees smiled at him, "The deal is always valid."

David Xi stopped talking, but smiled slightly, which was very blurry and faint in the night, but very real, it looked like ordinary people were tasting delicious meals, or seeing relatives who hadn’t returned for a long time It was as pleasant and ordinary as ever, "Let's go, I will protect you."

"Hmm..." Thaddeus's lazy voice finally dissipated into the night sky flatly.Then they disappeared together, and their backs that were not very conspicuous in the first place.

In the end, only the leader of the Knights who had been deeply hurt in his heart and the enemy who was lying on the ground and wanted to strangle David Xi at any time were the only ones left. The support team leader, and a lot of things and problems to deal with.
