boy and bone

The weather at night was still a little cold, and the ferret hurried to the dormitory apartment of the college after work in the tavern. Even during the holidays, there was a gatekeeper stationed in the front hall of the college apartment all year round.

Ferret’s work-study job was approved by the college. He only came back after the curfew, and the gatekeeper always left the door for him. Over time, he and the gatekeeper became close: “Kasha Mr. Ze. Good evening."

The gatekeeper's two legs were crossed on the yellow fir table, and wool was wrapped around the three-fingered claws. The gatekeeper's narrow eyes and vertical pupils turned to the direction of the ferret, and the blue-white film wiped the eyeballs. After recognizing the appearance of the ferret, and seeing a cold wind mixed with damp rain coming from the gate, he let out a rattlesnake whine from his beast-like dragon mouth.

The ferret quickly understood. He turned back, closed the door of the apartment that he forgot to close when he came in, and responded with a smile: "Yeah, it's a bit cold today."

After warding off a gust of cool wind outside the door, the ferret was ready to go up the stairs and return to its room to rest.

The gatekeeper, as if remembering something, stopped the ferret with the same rattlesnake cry as he mounted two steps of the stairs.

"My communication?" the ferret asked strangely.

The gatekeeper raised his claws like giant eagle claws to point to the thread instrument on the table, opened his mouth and let out a short and sharp dragon chant.

"Have you been playing all day?" the ferret wondered.

Ferret grew up in an orphanage since he was a child. Although he was kind to others, they were casual acquaintances. He didn't think about him in particular. This was even more so after entering the half-isolated knight academy. Besides, everyone he knew was by his side. It is necessary to use the star map communication to summon people from a long distance.And it was very urgent to call the communication several times.

The dragon gatekeeper made a hissing tone, and at the same time pulled a chair from the side and placed it next to himself behind the yellow cedar table.

The ferret was called back, and he sat next to the gatekeeper: "Well, you tell him I'll be back every night around this time. Would you like me to wait here for a while?"

Ferret is actually not very familiar with dragon language, he can only guess the meaning from a few words and connect the other party's actions in series.So usually he will repeat to the speaker to confirm what he is not familiar with or understand.

The dragon gatekeeper nodded, and then continued to stroke his ball of wool.

Compared with other dragons, the gatekeeper dragon of the knight's apartment is much quieter, more peaceful, and much smaller in size.I heard that Mr. Kashaze’s ancestors were originally the weakest of the Dragon Clan. They lived in the Sigh Continent in the habitat of the weak and strong, and it was difficult for them to survive in the Sigh Continent. Thousands of years ago, they smuggled their families to the world outside the Sigh Continent. They were the first to serve The dragon race was first known by the humanoid race outside, and after thousands of years of communication and getting along with the humanoid race, they have accumulated a lot of communication methods with the humanoid race. Now this group has become a bridge for all dragon races to communicate with the outside world .

Perhaps it is difficult to think of the gatekeeper dragon's woolen home appearance alone, which was still breathing fire from its mouth a long time ago, its wings were calling for thunder and lightning, and the corpses under its giant claws were piled up into a city. The heads of human beings are strung together into necklaces and hung on the long necks as a display of meritorious deeds, which naturally includes humanoid races.

Said it was a long time ago, but that was for humans, and for dragons, it was just a 'dog' time.

It is this small dragon that is extremely integrated into the human environment. I am afraid that it will be more than 200 years old this year...

The ferret couldn't help thinking wildly. It was a bit boring for him to sit beside the gatekeeper and wait for the sound of the thread meter. Moreover, because the ferret was working too late, he was already exhausted, so he couldn't help lying down. Doze off at the table.

The ferret still needs a part-time tavern waiter. The reward he received before was because he held the long tentacles left by the giant ant but could not prove that he killed the monster. The other two people who worked with him didn't want to make a fuss, and he didn't want to take credit, so he took some of the monster's stump to collect a small reward. He didn't want to arouse public opinion, and finally let it go .

After about a while, there was a sound like water vapor bursting from the spout of a boiling pot.

The gatekeeper pushed the ferret, and the ferret immediately got up and connected the screw instrument: "Hello?"

"A ferret?" An unfamiliar voice came from the opposite side.

The ferret asked, "You are."

The other party replied: "Man·kiranji."

"Ghost Ranji?"

Man heard his surprise and explained: "You and I are classmates at the same level, so it is not difficult to know the communication star map of your apartment."

Mandao: "There are people guarding me here. Let me make a long story short. You bring that kid to the Funk Inn in the old capital. I will wait for you there."

"Imp? Grey?" asked the ferret.

"Yes. Duke Isakel wants to meet the person who saved his son, and he wants to express his gratitude. You are familiar with that kid, and he trusts you. When you find him, you take a carriage from Fujindu for about ten Tian can go to the old capital. Remember to take a bath before bringing him here, make him clean, and change him into a well-bred clothes. Shorts and short sleeves must not be worn..."

The ferret was stunned: "Wait, wait a minute, am I responsible for all this?"

"Do you have any difficulties?"

"...money and time."

He seemed to have a thorough plan, and he didn't think these two things would be difficult, so he said confidently: "On the street opposite the college, the house number is No. 4, and the key is on the door beam. That's where I lived when I was in school. Enter the house and turn left Five steps, there is a bag of coins on the first floor of the foot cabinet next to the fireplace, about 60 mirangs, which is enough for you to rent a carriage. If you have time, do it as soon as possible, at least before the clan reception. You know which day the clan reception is Bar?"

Ferret said, "I mean I don't have time."

"Why don't you have time?"

"I need a part-time job, master."

"How much is your daily income? I can compensate you for the loss."

"I pay on a monthly basis." The ferret felt that the other party was a little unreasonable.

"I'll give you a month."

"..."

"It's important, as soon as possible." The other party immediately cut off the communication, and the light on Luo Xun's instrument panel suddenly dimmed.

"Hello? Hello?" It's unreasonable. What happened to Ki Ranji is a serious matter, so is what happened to his ferret an evil thing?

Does he know him well?No matter how good-tempered a person is, there is a bottom line!

The ferret's resolute thought flashed across, and he put down the communication microphone heavily.

But in fact, it was late at night.

The ferret came to the blocked gold fog forest alone. After more than 60 knights died in the fog forest, the reputation of the gold fog forest in the black market immediately boiled, and the bounty increased day by day.All parties and factions have also sent people to find out.Or for revenge, or for reward.

The foggy forest, which used to be a famous scenery, did not attract many travelers, but now there are many murders and many people.In the middle of the night, people held torches and entered through the gap in the barrier.

The ferrets put on their robes again, and entered with the crowd.

However, like other bounty knights, he did not go straight to the pile of corpses of more than 60 people or focus on investigating the places where giant ants passed by. He picked up a long branch, and held it up to the top of each tree, and cautiously asked: "Grey?"

Finally, after the branch hit a tree, a long black object quickly climbed down from his branch.

Seeing this, the ferret immediately threw the branch away.Just as the weird hand bones were about to rush towards him, Gray jumped down from the tree.

He has lived in the wild for too long, and his clothes are really not looking good after climbing trees every day. Seeing this, the ferret feels a little bit sorry for the cutting fees he spent on these clothes before.

Seeing that he was an acquaintance, Gray complained: "Those people are annoying me to death... When will they be able to leave, holding a torch and shining everywhere in this forest. They can't even sleep well. "

"If you find it annoying, come back with me."

"I can't live in your prison-like shabby house, and the food is rotten."

"Isn't that better than you being a little savage in the woods?"

"It's not for a long time. After I can speak your words, I can find a job myself when I go out."

"Language can only be improved through communication."

"Communication takes time, so what am I going to do during this time? Begging?"

"I can take care of you for a while."

"Come on, you're tinkling poor yourself."

"It won't happen soon. Do you know who the little boy you rescued last time? He is Rhea Dekranzi Isakel, and his father is the Duke of Isakel. You saved his Son, the Duke is about to thank you very much."

"Money?"

"I guess so."

"Bring it."

"No, I don't have it now. I need to get you there. And quickly."

"Sounds like a trap."

"I think so too, but since I need to take you there, I must also ensure your safety."

Gray frowned: "I don't need you."

"Come on, you're still a kid."

Gray rolled his eyes in a place where no one was around: "Ah, by the way, I won't reveal anything about the bone at that time. I will say that I cured it. Remember not to talk too much."

"I know."

Seeing that he accepted it easily, Gray said strangely: "Aren't you surprised? One bone is covered with curses. I was shocked when I saw him for the first time."

Now that he brought it up on his own initiative, Ferret just followed suit: "It's kind of weird, so how did it come here? Can it also become a magician?"

"I don't know, he was born with it," Gray replied casually.

"he?"

"it."

Gray glanced at his mouth secretly. This kid looked silly, but he was not weak in being careful and sensitive.
