Chapter 6 Deadly Trap

When Su Li woke up, she found herself lying in a wooden house. There is a feeling of coolness from the wound on the shoulder, which is not uncomfortable, but there are two other places that feel a little pain. Meiji is lying on the floor by the bed, covered with a straw mat, looking soundly asleep.

She sat up gently and felt that she was not as weak as she felt. Turning his head again, Meji also woke up and looked at her in a daze.

"What kind of look do you have?" She frowned.

"Angry eyes." Meiji shouted.

"Are you angry with me?"

"Well," Meggie turned his head childishly. "You almost killed yourself."

"Are you worried about me?" Su Li looked at him and said, "You don't seem to worry about others."

"You are different," Meiji got up. "If you die, who will pay me gold coins? Moreover, you promised to sleep with me after the event. I don't want to sleep with a dead person.

"Well," Su Li asked, "Have you been here last night?"

"It was last night and the night before, and you have slept for two days."

"...you didn't do anything strange to me, did you?" Su Li is worried.

"What do you mean?"

"It's like... the kind you secretly did to Zia when she was asleep..."

"Take off her pants?" Meiji shook his head, "No, I didn't want to draw a toad on your ass. Moreover, you lost too much blood at the beginning, and the situation was really bad. Fortunately, those Druis are experts in herbology, otherwise, I really don't know if you can survive.

"You really didn't do anything to me?" Su Li was still a little suspicious. She felt that her two * were faintly painful, and when she fell asleep, she seemed to feel that someone had scratched and pinched it. "You didn't...to me..."

"I swear I really didn't secretly take off your trousers."

"What about the clothes?" The knight girl found herself wearing a pajamas, which should belong to other girls in the village. It's just that the buttons of the pajamas are crooked, and the inside is vacuum and there is no corset. She quietly put her hand in and touched it near *...

"You bit me here again?" She looked at Meggie with wide eyes.

"It's not me," Meiji quickly defended. "It must be Zi Ya. She changed the medicine for you last night."

"I don't believe it. You find Qi Ya and I'll ask her."

“......”

"Go quickly."

"Okay, okay," Megji stretched out his hand helplessly, "It's me. It's just... Well, you should understand... some ** are hard to stop. I tried very hard to control myself. In fact, I already admire that I didn't take the opportunity to strip you bare..."

"I'm injured."

"Injury and taking off all clothes are two different things," Meiji wanted to shrug, but saw that Su Li had been staring at him, so she had to say with a bitter face, "Well, well, at worst, I will only secretly take it off when you are not injured in the future."

"Do you still dare?" The knight girl is extremely angry.

"You promised to sleep with me."

"Dream of yours."

"Hey, aren't you a knight? You can't go back on what the knight promised, right?

"I'll go back on my word. What do you want?" Su Li saw her thin sword at the head of the bed. She immediately pulled it out with her unhurt hand and pointed it at Meji. She stared at him and asked, "I said I was going to kill you with this sword. Now you don't let me regret killing you?"

"You are a scoundrel."

"You are the scoundrel." Su Li moved down, and the tip of the sword was closer to Meiji's throat. "Who do you think is a scoundrel?"

"I, I am..."

"As long as you know." The girl snorted and took the sword back.

Meggie breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her doubtfully. Why did she sleep for two days and feel that she suddenly became a little different?

The girl first turned her head coldly and ignored him, but after a while, she laughed again.

She must have slept stupidly. Crazy first and then stupid, there is no cure.

The girl laughed for a long time, and then sighed again. Her father was originally a duke. When she was seven years old, for some reason, he sent her to a lady to learn the necessary knowledge and etiquette of the knight. Since then, she has been trained by some boys with truly harsh knights, and even treats herself as a boy to some extent. The knight's rules and various etiquette deeply bound her every move. Although she was so disgusted with it, she had to force herself to accept all this. Sometimes, when she saw other girls smiling under the flattery of the boys, but she had to pretend to be serious and stay beside a lady, she hid a deep jealousy in her heart.

However, she is a temple knight affiliated with the church. In a sense, she is no different from a nun, and even more demanding of her words and deeds than ordinary nuns. No man dares to offend her or pay attention to her.

However, now there is a scoundrel who says in front of her that he wants to take off all her clothes...

"What's wrong with you?" Meiji asked with her head tilted.

"It's none of your business." Su Li turned around and stared at him. Somehow, when she was with Meggie, she felt unprecedented relaxation, as if all the constraints had been left behind. He is a scoundrel. If you don't want to be bullied by him, you can only be a scoundrel...

Be a scoundrel? It seems to be very interesting...

Unfortunately, this can only be thought about. After all, I still have an important task.

"How are the three children?" She closed her mind and looked at Meggie and asked seriously.

"Ziya's father has had them sent back." Meiji replied, "However, he also said that although their goddess Deliad accepted your sacrifice, she passed on the oracle and will never come back here after you leave after you recover from your injury."

"My sacrifice?" Su Li asked doubtfully, "What happened at that time? I only remember that when they were going to burn me to death, Qi Ya's mother appeared, and later, I couldn't remember clearly.

"Anyway, it was the forest goddess here who thought that the blood you shed on the ground was enough to exchange the lives of the three children. She accepted the exchange, so the ceremony was completed." After Meji finished speaking, she couldn't help complaining again, "You are really, those three children are dead or alive, and what does it have to do with you? You don't know them. Do you need to die for them?

"You won't understand," Su Li looked at him and sighed gently. "Everyone's heart will have some beliefs that must be guarded, even if they lose their lives."

"Faith? What is that?"

"Well, to put it simply, it's something that must be done."

"Ah, I see."

"Do you really understand?" Su Li looked at him suspiciously.

"Well," Meiji nodded seriously. "My belief is that I must draw a toad on Ziya's buttocks."

"You..."

Suli took another day off in the Kyle village. The magic of the herbs prepared by Drewy and the treatment of the priest Steele have basically recovered from her injuries. However, when they were ready to go to work, they found that Zi Ya had also packed her backpack and waited for them at the entrance of the village.

"Where are you going?" Meiji looked at her with a bad feeling.

"You promised to accompany me to find Joshua."

"I have to send them to the other side of the forest first..."

"Then you will slip away. Don't think I don't know," Qi Ya pouted, looking a little like a bear she likes to become. "I'll walk with you. After the forest, we'll go to Joshua immediately."

"...no."

"No, no." Zia turned into a bear and threw Meiji to the ground.

"You can't always be like this," Meggie struggled. "How can you look like a girl like this?"

"You can't even beat a girl. How can you look like a man?"

"Who said I couldn't beat a girl? I just can't beat the female bear, okay?" Meiji's mouth is hard.

"Can you beat Su Li?"

"... can't beat it."

"Isn't that it?"

"But she is not a girl. She is much older than you. She is a woman," Meiji retorted. "Her breasts are bigger than you."

"When I became a bear, I had more chest muscles than her."

"Pyst muscle and chest are two different things..."

At this time, the knight girl coughed heavily on the side. In fact, she felt that if she didn't interrupt them, no one would be sure where they would go.

"Do you know where Joshua you are looking for now?" Su Li looked at them and asked.

Ziya turned back to look like a girl, * on Meji's waist: "Well, he said he was going to find someone in Lai... Lai... and then he didn't come back."

"Leharon County?"

"That's right, that's what you said, Laiha... Ha, what county!" Meiji is sure.

Leharon County, Su Li lowered her head and thought for a moment. Leharun County is located near the sea in the east of the royal city. Whether it is going back, around the north of the Fair Kingdom from Sol Village, or walking through the Fog Girl Forest, from the distant desert to the kingdom border, and then through the royal city, it is a long journey. I really doubt when these two guys who have never left the fog forest and can't even remember the names of Leharlan County will be there. Moreover, although the situation in the kingdom seems to be peaceful on the surface, secretly, all kinds of dangers have reached the verge of imminent danger, so they are more or less worried about them to go on their own road.

"Well," Su Li said, "you can follow me. After I complete this task, I will take you to King City, and then help you check through the church's information network to see if the Joshua you are looking for is still in Leharon."

"Sister, you are so kind, a thousand times better than Meji," the Drui girl happily threw away Meji and ran to hug Suli. "Now I admit that your breasts are bigger than mine, a thousand times bigger."

"That's a monster, right?" Meiji muttered.

Su Li touched her head with tears and laughter.

After continuing on the road, it only took them more than half a day to cross the fog girl forest. When the eternal moon on her head began to disappear and the sun scattered on them, Su Li really didn't know whether she was relieved or had more regrets. I feel that these days in the fog girl forest seem to be in another different world, with reality in the illusion and danger hidden in the beauty. Even the moonlight that always sprinkles on your body is like a sticker that prints itself into it.

The priest took out a map from his body and pointed to a position at the junction of the forest and the distant desert: "We should be here now, right?"

Su Li is not sure.

"Let me see." Meiji ran away, took out his thing at a distance, looked through it for a while, and then ran back, pointing to another location closer to the cold hills on the map, "We are here."

"Why is it so far away?" Su Li opened her eyes wide, "Aren't we going straight through this forest?"

"The forest has never stopped moving," Zia said. " Even we Kyle people are not sure of our position every time we come out of the forest. Among the people I know, only Joshua and Meggie can walk through the fog forest, and even my father can't do it. But Joshua is really the ability, unlike Meiji, who just relies on the strange star compass.

"Star compass?" Su Li is also a little curious. From the beginning, she suspected that since even Meggie could take them through the fog forest, there was no reason why other experienced wanderers could not do it. Even if Meggie lived in that forest since she was a child, she knew a lot about those dark creatures. But she believes that there will be other wanderers who know the weaknesses of those elves or Ningfu as well as he does. After all, those capable adventurers have experienced dangers again and again, and the accumulated knowledge about dark creatures should not be less than Meji.

"Ziya, you can't say that," Meiji shouted hurriedly. "My mother said that some unintentional adventurers will be jealous because I have this thing. They will kill me to get it."

"Then why don't you throw it to them before they kill you?"

"What?" Meiji suddenly realized, "Can it be like this? Why didn't I think of such a simple thing?"

"That's because you believe the old witch's words too much."

Su Li sighed and said to Meiji, "Since your mother said that you shouldn't let others know that you have this thing, you'd better hide it. She must have her reason. Black Annes is a witch who has accumulated hundreds of years of wisdom and will not make any meaningless instructions.

Meggie nodded.

Su Li looked at the map again and pointed to a mark on the map: "This is the bronze altar we are going to. Our current location is much closer than I thought. It's almost dark now. We can rest on the edge of the forest for one night and go on the road tomorrow. I guess we will be almost there tomorrow evening.

Both the warrior and the priest nodded.

*

The bronze heart altar is said to have been first built by dwarves to worship an ancient god. A hundred years after darkness, this area gradually turned desert, and dwarves also migrated to the Moschibelle Mountains in batches. Although this area is the sphere of influence of desert thieves, it is close to the cold windy hills and the forest of the daughter of fog, and basically no merchants pass through this area. Therefore, sand thieves rarely come to such places.

When they arrived at the bronze heart altar, it was already dusk. Many huge stone pillars made of rocks make people feel desolate, and there is an arch in the center of the stone pillar. Sully asked Meggie and Ziya to wait on the periphery of the stone pillar array, and let Novak be on guard around, and took the priest to the arch.

She and the priest searched the stones on the edge of the arch.

"Here." Steele pointed, and in front of him, a strange pattern was engraved on the stone he swept away from the sand. Su Li walked over, took out a stone pen from her body, and then made some changes to the pattern according to the pattern on the paper that someone had shown her.

The light and shadow moved, and the girl and the priest retreated aside.

A projection appeared on the pattern. It was a magician in a black robe, wrapped tightly. Su Li knew that what the magician actually showed in front of them in the Solin Tower in the southwest corner of the whole continent was just an illusion created by some kind of spell.

"You are too slow." The magician's projection looked at them as if they were really close in front of them.

"We have arrived as soon as possible." Sully bowed to him blankly, "Rose Knight Sully Fit, on the order of Cardinal Sarai and Princess Sophia, come to listen to your opinion."

"Suli Fit?" The name stunned the black-robed magician. He looked at Su Li and then let out a strange laugh, "I know the name. You are the daughter of Bloody Mary. I saw your name when I was looking for Mary Sulen Ewell. It's rare that the old man Sarai would trust you and send you to see me.

"Lord in red knows my loyalty," Su Li replied faintly, "I have never seen my mother, and I hate her more than anyone else. My father is a real nobleman, and he gave me a good education.

"Oh, yes, your father, that fool." The black-robed magician looked at Su Li's frown and had a strange smile. "Well, that's not the reason why you and I are here. Moreover, blood Mary has already died, and no one cares what her daughter does. Do what you want to do, hurry up."

"Lord Sarai asked me to ask you three questions," Su Li calmed down and said, "First of all, he wants to know how to destroy the shadow blood dragon of Panqi, the dark prince?"

"Cachidero is a existence created by God, and no one can kill it except God." The man in black said, "It's a pity that since the heavenly garden and the blood pool of the demon realm collapsed in the dark century, there has been no real god in the world. Although there are still some gods of nature that have existed a hundred years ago, or demons that take the opportunity to steal the position of gods, they do not have a god who can kill Kachidero.

Su Li frowned: "This is not the answer that the Lord in Red wants to know."

"But this is the truth." The black-robed man sneered, "However, to deal with Panqi, you may not need to kill his shadow blood dragon. Just kill the person around him who can manipulate the Shadow Blood Dragon.

"Who is that person?" Su Li's eyes lit up.

"Is this the second question?" The man in black asked.

Su Li thought about it for a moment and finally decided to put this problem on hold first: "No. The second question is, why can't anyone kill Panqi?

"You have to find his heart before you can kill him." The man in black said in a low voice, "He used some magic to put his heart somewhere else, so that his body would not die no matter how hurt it was. If your third question is to ask me where he put it, I advise you not to waste this question, because I don't know.

"So, please allow me to ask the last question," Su Li quietly and slowly said, "The third question is, who sent the snake-haired banshee Medusa, who pretended to be the queen more than a decade ago?"

"Is this also what Sarai in red asked you?" The man in black looked at her and smiled strangely.

"Yes." Su Li did not hesitate at all.

"No," the black-robed magician sneered, "the third question that Sarai asked you is actually 'whether there is any shady relationship between Parnqi and the current queen'. And what you asked is what Princess Sophia wants to know. She asked you to secretly change the third question. Am I right?

Su Li's heart began to feel cold. Why did this person know the third question the cardinal asked her? Faintly, Sully felt that she and Princess Sophia had fallen into an arranged trap... a deadly trap.
