Palm Dragon

Looking at Adrian in front of him who was swinging happily with the bristlegrass, Ice felt that he couldn't keep up with the young man's thoughts.

Or, was Adrian actually sleepwalking last night?He himself thought this statement was ridiculous.But Iss hesitated to confirm it with Adrian again, but after seeing him say he likes him, he fell asleep like a dragon, and he didn't mention it again after waking up today, let alone his delusions. A night of shyness or denial or anger...

Yisi sighed for the first time.

"Iss?" Sensing that something was wrong with him, Adrian swayed back: "Are you hungry? You can walk out of the Emerald Valley in a short distance, and there is Cotata in front of the valley~ The Cranberry Tavern in the town There is a wonderful walnut cream pie made by the proprietress herself~" Let's have a glass of warm eggnog~ "By the way, the waitresses in the tavern are also very beautiful~"

Looking at the background of Xiaolong full of small flowers, Yi Si suddenly felt like an adolescent fool.

Anyway, what I like, it must be on the same level as walnut cream pie and waitresses.He couldn't help thinking viciously.

However, looking at the little dragon who had already started preparing the lunch menu, Ice suddenly smiled.

Not urgent.In the future, they will have a long time together.

It was obviously the water season, but the wind blowing on the cheeks was dry and stinging.

Seeing the tallest building in the town - the steeple of the church from a distance, Adrian happily pulled Iss to speed up his pace.

But when the town gradually appeared in front of him, Adrian stopped.

Yisi also suppressed his smile.

"Ed, is this Kotata?"

Adrian looked suspiciously at the strange scene in front of him.

In fact, something is very wrong.

In the small town in front of me, there are no peddlers shouting loudly, no rough blacksmiths singing while quenching the fire, no happy people on the road in memory, not a single person.

Adrian was a little nervous.He didn't know why the small town that was happily celebrating the Harvest Festival two months ago had become strange.

Is comfortingly held Adrian's hand who was approaching him.

It's like a dead town here.

But... There was a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

Although it does seem to have an unpleasant smell of death, from the various houses on the side of the street, there are almost undetectable movements - soft, forcibly suppressed breathing, and the rubbing sound of linen clothes... …

Iss led Adrian to the center of the town.

"Is..." Adrian pointed to a small tavern at the corner. The protruding sign had been removed, but the wine pattern on the birch door was still very clear.

Cranberries.

A huge brass lock hung on the door of the tavern.

When Adrian turned around in disappointment, a black figure suddenly appeared from the shadows at the corner, and rushed towards Adrian with the cold wind.

Iss snorted coldly, stretched out his hand, pulled Adrian behind him, and held it easily.

It is a stick.

A teenager with freckles on his nose saw that his attack was blocked, so he let go of his hand and rushed towards Yisi with his bare hands.

He only felt that his fist was thrown into the air, and the next moment he was hit flying three meters away.

fragile human beings.Yi Si withdrew his hand and snorted coldly.

Adrian poked his head out from behind Iss, and took a closer look at the boy who couldn't get up.

"Eh...you can't be Andrew, can you?"

Andrew is the 16-year-old son of the proprietress of the Cranberries.Andrew tried to stand still and stared at the fire dragon for three seconds.

"Ed?"

A misunderstanding.

"Why are you? I thought..." Andrew stepped forward.

"Why?"

"This is not a place to talk." Andrew picked up the wooden stick on the ground—Iss didn't use much force just now.

Following the young man's hesitation into the alley, Andrew stopped in front of an iron gate just as Edris was about to turn into Mosquito Eye.

"Where is this place?"

Andrew didn’t answer, just unlocked the door and let them in.

"Andrew! You're out again!"

There was a soft drink in the face.

Just as the charming woman was about to get angry, she realized that it wasn't her son who came in.

"...Ed?"

"Hi, Mantasha." Adrian raised his hand in greeting.

"Why are you here?" Mantasha quickly closed the door.

"I just wanted to do some shopping and drop by to see you. You're still so beautiful."

Mantasha nodded Adrian's forehead: "Look at me? Did you come to my bar? You brought someone here."

"This is Iss. My...neighbor." Adrian hurriedly introduced.

Neighbor?Mantasha looked at Yisi.He was so handsome that he couldn't be real, but he was well-bred and well-bred at first glance, and his clothes were too gorgeous and exquisite.Such a person and Adrian are neighbors?

In fact, it’s no wonder Adrian, although he is not a small fortune, he is also a beautiful black-haired boy in human form, but the rustic taste of living in the mountains for a long time is so different from Iss. . —_—

"It's the first time we meet, ma'am." Iss stepped forward and bowed.

Oh oh oh oh oh!

Mantasha was immediately distracted by Mr. Noble's beauty, and within a quarter of an hour, he chatted with Yisi in a charming and passionate manner.

"It turns out that there is such an excellent gentleman living next door to Ed~"

It is indeed next door, separated by half a valley.Adrian was actually telling the truth. Apart from the depths of the sea of ​​trees, they were indeed the only ones living in the Emerald Valley.

Seeing that Mantasha was unwilling to even give him a corner of the eye, Adrian decided to do it himself, so that he had enough food and clothing.

but……

Adrian looked at the empty wine cabinet in disbelief.

"Mantasha, is your tavern closed down?"

"Your tavern just closed down!" Mantasha turned around aggressively. "It's just closed!"

Doesn't that mean the same thing as going bankrupt... Adrian wisely didn't say that.

At this time, Mantasha's exuberant eyebrows were gone, replaced by the unconcealed worry in the corners of her eyes.

"It's not just the cranberries... who else in this town... can stay in business?"

"What happened? There was no one on the street when we came here just now!" Adrian complained.

Mantasha motioned for Ice and Adrian to sit down.

"Kotata...something happened. It's only been a month since the Harvest Festival, and a strange guest came to the town." Mantasha poured water for them.

"Since then, a lot of strange things have happened to Kotata."

"Strange thing?"

"Yes. That person lived in the town for three days and then left. Something happened that night. When the moon rose above the treetops, the village was attacked." Thinking of the scene that night, he was as pungent as a mantasha knife now Also shiver.
