False prophecies kill people [Western Fantasy]

The groom ran away, and Xie Yi's first thought was to find him back.

He originally planned to put Sexitus where he was, but he was worried that he would escape midway. To be on the safe side, he grabbed the rope and led Sexitus into the forest.

It didn't take Xie Yi much effort to find the groom, because the other party didn't run far at all.

Xie Yi only walked for a while before he found the other party's fragmented corpse. The groom fled in the middle of the night and left the range of the security formation set up by Xie Yi. took his own life.

The groom didn't escape empty-handed, he held the bag of gems and gold tightly in his arms until his death.

"Unfortunate."

Xie Yi cursed for the groom, and he shrugged, not very angry.

It is natural for the groom to run away. After all, it is not a good job to be a wizard's experiment, but he is really not smart. He can obviously wait until he is in the city before running away.

Xie Yi used witchcraft to dig a pit to serve as the groom's tomb. By the way, he didn't take the bag of gems and gold from the groom's arms.

Since he didn't know the other party's name, he simply wrote "The Tomb of the Royal Groom of the Kingdom of Daqi" on the other party's tombstone.

Sexitus watched from the side without saying a word.

Xie Yi didn't even think about asking Sexitus the coachman's name, because honestly, he didn't care.

After finishing all this, he returned to the carriage with Sexitus.

Although Sexitus didn't speak, he was very obedient. Wherever Xie Yi went, he followed him and never expressed his opinion.

Xie Yi is very satisfied with this.

The carriage that Camilla presented to Xie Yi was specially used by the king.

Although the Daqi Kingdom is a remote and small kingdom, the king's carriage is quite luxurious, and there are a total of six horses used to pull the carriage.

These six horses are all white horses. Of course, there will always be some other colors mixed with them. Pure white horses are very precious, and they cannot be obtained by the king of a small kingdom.

Xie Yi stood in front of the carriage, and looked at the six horses. They looked at the human in black robes in front of them docilely, and their big innocent eyes looked very cute.

... Such an obedient horse should also be obedient when pulling a cart?

Xie Yi frowned and sat on the coachman's seat, pulling the left rein and then the right rein, but couldn't find a way.

"If you don't mind, then I am happy to serve you."

Seeing Xie Yi fiddling with the reins jerky, Sexitus recommended himself: "I can drive a carriage."

Xie Yi looked at him suspiciously: "Do you want to untie the rope on your hand to drive the carriage?"

Sexitus nodded: "Of course."

After getting an affirmative answer, Xie Yi flatly rejected Sexitus' request.

He doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of Sexitus, he can't beat Sexitus, so don't take any risks.

"I will do it myself."

Xie Yi tugged at the rein and flung it tentatively, the six horses in front of the carriage obediently strode forward, and the carriage started to wobble.

This success greatly boosted Xie Yi's confidence. For such a simple matter, he didn't need anyone's help at all.

"You stay in the carriage."

Xie Yi held the rein and gave orders: "I will do it myself."

Sexitus did not follow suit, he was still sitting beside Xie Yi, driving a carriage was not an easy task, especially a carriage with six horses, if one was not careful, the entire carriage might overturn.

Xie Yi didn't care about him, an unreasonable belief convinced him that Sexitus would not hurt him, and all he had to do was to prevent him from escaping, so he started to drive the car on his own.

The whole section of the road ahead was a straight line, and the six horses could go forward without Xie Yi's command until a fork in the road appeared.

"...Go left! Go left!"

However, no matter what Xie Yi ordered, they just trotted all the way to the fork on the right without stopping.

Sexitus gave a whistle, and they stopped.

Turning, however, was a problem, and Xie Yi didn't know how to make them turn at all.

It seemed that the only way was for him to go down, and turn with the horse.

However, there was a lot of mud on the ground, and he didn't want to go down, lest he get dirty.

While hesitating, Sexitus recommended himself again: "Why don't you let me serve you?"

Xie Yi was a little moved, and an inexplicable trust made him instinctively want to agree to Sexitus.

However, before he opened his mouth to agree, he suddenly remembered his worries: "Then what should you do if you take the opportunity to escape?"

"Although I can definitely catch you again, why should I spend so much effort?"

Sexitus smiled, he saw Xie Yi's wavering, and said calmly: "I promise not to run away."

"Of course, a single promise is not enough to make you believe me, but you see, this is the forest. Without your power, the groom who ran away in the middle of the night yesterday died in the belly of a wolf unfortunately. I don't want to be the second him."

Xie Yi questioned: "You are different from him, you can beat a wolf."

He didn't know where he got the impression, but he just knew that the wolves posed no threat to Sexitus.

Sexitus did not deny it, but he continued: "But this is a forest. If I escape, I will have to endure the infestation of wild animals, have no food to eat, and sleep in the open. Why should I do that? I don't have trouble with myself."

"Of course you would be willing to do that." After hearing Sexitus' explanation, Xie Yi was not completely convinced, "Because even if you suffer a little bit, it is very cost-effective to escape from me."

Sexitus failed to convince Xie Yi, so he stopped talking to avoid backfire.

Xie Yi is right, suffering a little bit is nothing to him, he is not afraid of suffering, as long as he can escape, what is suffering a little bit?

He originally thought their conversation was over like this, but Xie Yi paused and said:

"But...forget it, I believe you, you really won't take this opportunity to escape, right?"

Sexitus looked into Xie Yi's eyes, and sighed for no reason in his heart, "Of course, I won't make trouble with myself."

"I will watch you." Xie Yi warned before breaking the spell: "If you make a little move, I will never trust you again. If you escape, I will definitely catch you back. Then you won't have a good time."

Hearing Xie Yi's threat, Sexitus wanted to smile, "Of course, of course, how dare I?"

Satisfied, Xie Yi broke the spell.

He asked Sexitus to stretch out his hand, Sexitus complied, and Xie Yi patiently untied the rope, wound it up and put it away for later use.

"I'll tie you up when you don't need to drive the carriage anymore."

"I understand." Sexitus replied understandingly.

His skill in driving a carriage was indeed much better than that of Xie Yi, a layman, and he easily made the six horses obey his orders and turn around and go to the right place.

Sitting next to him, Xie Yi suddenly felt a little weird seeing him so skillful.

He himself could not drive a carriage, of course, because he had never driven one, and he had no need to drive a carriage; then why did Sechtus learn to drive a carriage?

If I remember correctly, Sexitus should be a prince, and the prince should not be able to drive a carriage.

He thought so, so he asked.

"prince?"

Sexitus laughed, as if Shay had said something amusing.He smiled to himself for a while, and then said: "If you didn't mention it now, I really can't remember that I am a prince."

"Why do you think I want to be king?"

Xie Yi glanced at him, and said the reason he heard: "They said that you were greedy, greedy for profit, and didn't take the dignity of wizards seriously, so you usurped the throne."

Sexitus was noncommittal: "Then what do you think?"

Xie Yi shook his head: "I don't think so." He put up the airs of a wizard: "And to be honest, I didn't care much about it at the time."

"Since you don't care, I'll just say it briefly, so as not to annoy you, I don't even know what it's like to be a prince. To be honest, driving a carriage is just a lot of livelihood skills for a person who can't even eat One of the most relaxing."

Xie Yi was in a complicated mood. He really wanted to know Sexitus' past in detail, but he didn't want to touch his wounds. After thinking about it, he chose to keep silent.

The carriage was walking quietly in the forest, Xie Yi looked at the unchanging scenery around him, and felt very bored, he was willing to chat with Sexitus, but he couldn't face it, so he had to wait for the other party to talk to him first, and then he answered "begrudgingly" .

However, Sexitus didn't take the initiative to talk to him, he seemed to be focused on driving the carriage, Xie Yi could only continue to be so bored.

As for monitoring Sexitus, he insisted on it at first, but gradually he forgot that he always had a strange sense of trust in Sexitus, as if the other party was very trustworthy and there was nothing to guard against.

The sun had risen to the very center of the sky, and it was already noon.

Xie Yi asked Sexitus to stop the vehicle, he rummaged to find the basket containing food, took out a cold roast chicken from it, and shared it with Sexitus.

Although he didn't do anything, he was still very hungry, and even a cold roast chicken tasted good.

When he took a chicken leg and began to bite, he suddenly remembered that according to the rules, he could not give Sexitus anything to eat at all, and he should starve Sexitus.

So he turned his eyes in the direction of Sexitus.

The other party was cutting open the chicken gracefully with a dagger, and eating the meat with the tip of the knife.

Sexitus noticed his gaze and looked over.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Xie Yi shook his head, forget it, let Sexitus eat it.

He is still a novice, and when he escorts a prisoner next time, he will definitely tie him to the back of the carriage and starve him.

Xie Yi thought about it, and finished eating the chicken leg in his hand.

Sexitus handed him a handkerchief to wipe his hands, Xie Yi didn't want it, and he cleaned his hands with a cleansing spell.

"If possible, could you please..."

Before Sexitus finished speaking, Xie Yi knew what he was thinking.

There is nothing wrong with this, Xie Yi casually helped the other party clean his hands, saw the dagger again, and subconsciously asked: "What about this one?"

Sexitus smiled and handed over the dagger: "I'm sorry for your trouble."

After Xie Yi finished cleaning, he suddenly thought of

—This is a dagger!
