Chapter 558: The Disappearing Ninja
"boss!"
After seeing him come back, Mo Mei pounced, wanting to suffocate her boss with her abundant justice. Fortunately, Ye Lin had suffered countless losses, so she held her soft waist with both hands and walked around in a circle before taking him into her arms.
"Girl, you didn't see it when you came home yesterday. Boss, I was guarding the gate of the underworld alone. I beat back any evil spirits, including the fish-headed Terror La Xiu."
Taking advantage of the situation, he lifted Mo Mei on his shoulders and patted the fat meat gently and hard, causing his big eyes to water up and he let out a cry.
"Hey, boss, you are so awesome!" Mo Mei blushed and felt a little awkward. Mailu and the others were still in the yard.
"Hey~"
Feng Ying raised her middle finger at his bragging, and then continued to count today's rich harvest on the stone table. With the help of rice cakes, she and Natalia picked up a lot of things. It was roughly estimated that there were still hundreds of thousands.
"Let's split it evenly!"
Natalia's eyes were fiery, and after estimating the value, she gave a portion of the rice cake to Mailu, and bought snacks, drinks, and new clothes.
There are not many opportunities to pick up mistakes at the stalls. Stall owners are becoming more and more savvy, and buyers are also very discerning.
…………
The dinner presented by Chef Siatt and the wind chime, taking advantage of the bright and cold moon in the courtyard, lit a few just-right magic lights, and the whole courtyard had a beautiful artistic conception.
However, the weather in Sunan may be dewy, so we can’t wait too long.
Ye Lin packed up the tableware in front of him. He ate faster today. Feng Ling was half full and could fill up with some snacks later on the way.
"I have to go to the palace tonight."
"Why, did you go for a hysterectomy?"
Natalia picked up the rice vigorously, but her mouth that could irritate people still didn't grow at all. The dishes of the two chefs couldn't stop her mouth.
"I'm going to collect the bounty, and I'll wait until the Blue Dragon Conference to find a better location for us. As you know, it's too crowded nearby."
Bang~
Gently closing the door of the dojo, he swayed with the wind chime and walked slowly in the direction of Suran Palace. There was no carriage or other means of transportation.
The jade plate-like moon was just covered by a cloud, and the already hazy streets of Su Nan suddenly gained a dark atmosphere. Because the streets of Su Nan were very retro, it made him feel a little mysterious and a little adventurous.
A little thrill.
The wind chime next to her gave up her previous cheongsam and safety pants, probably because she felt that the nights in Sunan were very cold, and put on a pair of straight jeans, which made her legs look slender and strong, with red long sleeves and a vest, and her charming white hair.
The shawl falls behind him.
She knew that Ye Lin was very accomplished in magic, but he just didn't want to make a ball of holy light for illumination. He said he wanted to enjoy the mystery of darkness, which made Feng Chime a little helpless.
The streets of Soonam are very quiet at night. Every house has lights on, but few pedestrians go out and walk around. There are only mosquitoes chirping in the corners.
"Our Sunan nights are always like this."
She has seen the prosperity, liveliness, brightness and enthusiasm of Hedunmar that won't stop until midnight.
If Hutton Mar's night is like Elsa, hot and hot, then Su Nan is like Xiaojia's jade-like Mavis, cool and elegant.
"Well, I think it's pretty good. The hustle and bustle of the day is hidden behind these windows, leaving out the glitz and a little bit of indifference."
In an unfamiliar city, unfamiliar streets, and dim light, although there were very few things that could cause fatal surprise attacks on him, this strange feeling of "strangeness" still brought some sensory stimulation.
However, Feng Ling couldn't quite understand his feelings. She grew up here, and every street and every house in the neighborhood was already familiar to her.
"Wind chime, guess what I'm thinking about?"
Suddenly, Yelin turned his head and asked her a very strange question.
"I'm not your tapeworm." Of course, it was a very boring answer, but the question was originally asked inexplicably.
"I stayed with Siatt for a while today on Exchange Street, at the martial arts competition, and in the business district. These are the most crowded places, but..."
Ye Lin pursed his lips, glanced at some absolutely dark corners, spread his hands and said, "Except for Guyu, I haven't seen a single dark elf."
Upon hearing this, Feng Chime's footsteps stopped for an instant, his expression was stunned, and a flash of enlightenment flashed through his mind.
Yes, she also felt that something was wrong recently, but she never found anything suspicious and quickly ignored it.
Now she suddenly remembered that except for Guyu who had been wandering in the yard for two days, why were all the dark elves living in Xuzu missing?
In the distant era, during the time of the tyrant Barak, this iron-fisted king ordered the dark elves of Arad continent to gather to him and worship him with the intention of killing.
Most of the dark elves were intimidated by the tyrant's majesty and obeyed him obediently. Only some dark elves living in Xuzu were dismissive of this.
Among them is a genius "Caranthir" who is a hybrid of humans and dark elves. She is naturally unable to learn the magic that dark elves are good at, but she is extremely talented in telekinesis.
However, she was unwilling to stick to her mental energy, and instead pursued faster and more explosive attack methods until she found the power of fire from "Bifang", one of Xuzu's wandering mythical beasts.
After continuous improvement by latecomers, the power of flame and mind energy was slowly and perfectly integrated, and the "ninja" lineage was born.
"Wind Chime, you should know that the predecessor of the ninja was an assassin who could make children stop crying. They were the royal family and nobles who gave them the status of civilians, but also secretly used their power."
"I only heard my brother mention this occasionally. I don't know much about it myself."
For hundreds of years, after being deliberately concealed by the royal family and nobles, ordinary civilians have no idea that those dark elves, neighbors or friends who appear to be friendly and friendly may secretly be ruthless and cold-blooded killers.
Feng Chime was still puzzled, but Ye Lin smiled faintly and signaled that Su Nan Palace was already in front of him. If we talk about ninjas again, be careful that walls have ears.
At this juncture, the dark elves living in Suran suddenly and mysteriously disappeared. It is difficult not to give people some extra thoughts.
Aska's policy is good, but with the influx of adventurers and various chambers of commerce, they will also bring huge benefits and wealth to Xu Zu.
Although the nobles of Xuzu may not be as thorough as those in the Seventh Empire in amassing wealth, this huge influx of "wealth" will inevitably produce a series of entanglements and conflicts.
Who eats more and who eats less?
Moreover, there are still some pedantic nobles who accuse Aska of not respecting the teachings of her ancestors and disrespecting the departed wise king, and even sarcastically mock her for not even saving the holy mountain.
Even Leon Heinrich of the Iron-Blooded Empire could not prevent his nobles from amassing money wantonly, and the military headquarters was emptied by moths.
Although Su Nan, who has been self-proclaimed for hundreds of years, has been rectified by the wise king, bad things are still inevitable.
The festival is getting closer, but Askar's life is getting harder and harder.
That's why Ye Lin chose this night to return the Suzaku headdress. At least he could first deal with the whereabouts of the "Nian Qi Ore" and let Aska breathe a sigh of relief.
"Stop, the palace area is not open at night."
The two guards stopped Feng Ling and Ye Lin, but their tone was a bit perfunctory and routine. The door they were guarding was a hidden small door, not the palace gate.
Very few people know this road, because it is the door where Askar sneaks out to play without telling the assistant minister.
So now that someone is taking the initiative to come over, it must be related to the royal family. Just show off and show off.
"I am the wind chime from the Nianqi Association. We found the Suzaku headdress that His Majesty was looking for a few days ago."
"Master Wind Chime!"
The guard immediately perked up. Unexpectedly, it was the famous Nian Qi beauty Feng Ling. Among the nobles and Nian Qi associations, she had more than two dozen suitors.
