Count of Monte Cristo

Edmund and Lin Ke have been in Florence for three weeks.

In the past two weeks, I have visited all the places that should be visited, tried all the delicacies that should be eaten, and made friends with all the people that should be visited and made friends.The two have also improved a lot in their learning of kissing skills. Lin Ke has gone from not being able to take a breath when he opened the car, to now he is not panting at all, and this is all thanks to Edmond.

In short, the two of them spent this period of time very happily, very satisfied, and had so much fun that Lin Ke didn't know how time passed so fast.One week until they leave this beautiful lovely place.

Once, Edmund wanted to take Lin Ke to hunt.In fact, Edmund had already gone several times with those friends he made, but Lin Ke did not follow him.

One is that Lin Ke is lazy. Rather than communicating with those people, he would rather hide in the kitchen and cook his delicacies; but Edmond doesn’t want Link to go out. It’s dangerous for him to do these things. Like Linko Adventures.

There is a primeval forest at the far east of Florence, where many people love to go hunting.This includes many foreign tourists, and the locals are somewhat taboo about this place.Lin Ke and Mel asked about it, and he said that Italy also liked to go there for hunting and picnics.But in recent years, they have gradually stopped going.Because there are rumors that the depths of the virgin forest have become a den of robbers, and many robbers like to gather there and regard it as their camp.

Mel brought up a name again, Cucumetto.He said Kukumetto, the famous bandit leader, had also been there.Cukumetto's famous local people know that he will kidnap people who act alone and ask their families to pay. If the ransom is not paid within a certain period of time, then he will tear up the ticket!The local government sent personnel to encircle and arrest him many times, but they all let him escape.The government issued a wanted warrant offering a reward for his capture, but the robber always escaped before the gendarmes caught him.This shows his cunning.

When Lin Ke got on the horse, he realized that although he could ride a horse, it was only in a static or normal situation. If he wanted to ride a horse to hunt, he thought he should refuse.So when they were about to set off that day, Lin Ke patted the black steed, expressing his worries eagerly.This was originally Edmond's temporary idea, but it just revealed another goal that Lin Ke had to learn, no, it was two goals!Horsemanship and marksmanship!

So they stopped going to the primeval forest, but moved to a racecourse.The two horses under them were bought from England by Edmund, and they caused a sensation when they first bought them.Many people came to see it, but now it seems that this horse is not suitable for Lin Ke.

After arriving at the racecourse, someone first selected a docile mare for Lin Ke, and then Edmund began to teach him.Lin Ke already has a certain foundation, so it doesn't take much effort to teach.Moreover, Lin Ke is much more enthusiastic about this learning sport than he is about learning language and painting.He studies very seriously and has a good comprehension ability. He can already learn some basic movements in an afternoon, but there is a price, that is, his legs are weak when he dismounts.

After a day of squatting on horseback, my whole body is sore.Lin Ke didn't cry out in pain, but his expression couldn't be fake.When going back, Lin Ke insisted on riding a horse, and Edmund followed him.Unexpectedly, when I got back to the hotel, the pain doubled, so the evening theater activities were also cancelled.

Lin Ke lay on the bed, and Edmond massaged him.

"Exercising this day is really cool!" Lin Ke sighed, "It would be great if it didn't hurt!"

"Are you still going tomorrow?"

"Go! Why don't you go! This is much more interesting than painting!" Lin Ke beamed with joy, "I found that the feeling of galloping is not bad, and I have the urge to fly! But tomorrow, I will change for a wilder horse. Today's The pony is too docile, it's boring..." Before he finished speaking, he wailed, "Edmond, be gentle..."

Edmond moved lightly, pressing his legs unhurriedly, and Lin Ke sighed comfortably.

"Edmond, I think you should also teach me marksmanship." Lin Ke took out a pistol out of nowhere and handed it to Edmond.Edmund took it and recognized that it was the pistol they had on the desert island before.

"You want to practice with this gun?"

"Yeah." Linko nodded.

"This gun isn't for you. We'll go to the range on Tuesday and I'll pick you one that works."

Lin Ke unexpectedly insisted, "Just this one." He took the pistol from Edmond's hand again, and it disappeared in a flash.

Edmund looked at the clean bed, but he didn't find where Linko put the gun.

Seeing Edmond's expression, Lin Ke couldn't help showing a smug smile, "How is it? I'm good at magic, right? Let me tell you that I've been thinking about several kinds of magic recently. Let me show you the miracle? I might It will be the next David Copperfield!" Lin Ke's magic was once very popular in Maiden.

But after Edmund appeared, he hadn't played this little trick again.The main reason was that he had no time or energy. Now, between eating, drinking and having fun, he remembered his technique again, and practiced it again, preparing to impress Edmond.

Edmund knew he would do this. It is said that he had used this technology to steal keys from pirate ships.This man was full of crooked ways and strange spirits, and Edmund loved and hated him.Lin Ke was still talking about how he had invented a few tricks. If Edmund went bankrupt in the future, they would go to the streets to perform, which would definitely be able to support the two of them.

Edmund glanced at him, and saw that the man was still lost in his imagination. "The task I entrusted to you, have you completed it?"

Lin Ke looked at him in a daze, "What task?" It seemed that he didn't remember it at all, and Edmund said, "Your art homework." He reminded.

Lin Ke remembered that some time ago Edmund asked him to paint, and he still had to learn systematic oil painting theory and techniques.After listening for a while, Lin Ke felt that this was more boring than philosophy, so he begged him, saying that he wanted to learn manga.As soon as he said it, Edmund was stunned. He probably hadn't heard of comics yet.Lin Ke didn't understand, so he told him everything he knew. Anyway, his original intention was to learn some simple stick figures. After communicating for a long time, Edmund understood what Lin Ke meant, and agreed to him. Require.But these art theories and techniques still need to be learned.With his arms unable to twist his thighs, Lin Ke gave in.

However, it turned out that Lin Ke didn't have this talent, and the mud couldn't support the wall.After many paintings were handed in, Edmund gave up on him and let him go through it easily, but his final homework was for Lin Ke to draw a portrait of himself.Lin Ke was speechless, but he locked himself in the room and drew for a day, and finally chose a picture he was satisfied with and submitted it.But Edmund was dissatisfied, so he didn't pass the test. Instead, he was given another three days to redraw.

"Edmond, Edmond, Edmond!" Seeing Edmond's serious expression, Lin Ke turned around, sat up, and called his name loudly, flattering him, "I accidentally forgot... ...Hehe... When I learn equestrian skills well, I will definitely work hard."

Edmund was unmoved, "You still have one more day."

Lin Ke blinked, then suddenly turned his back to Edmund, his hands shaking rapidly.Edmund could only see his back, not what he was doing.After a while, Lin Ke turned around and smiled, "Edmond, I'm giving you something."

"bribe?"

"Yes."

Edmund was sitting on the edge of the bed, and said with a smile, "Then you have to do what you like and satisfy me. Otherwise..." He grabbed Lin Ke's shoulder with both hands, and kissed him deeply.

After a while, Lin Ke pushed him away, rubbed his cheeks, "You will be satisfied." His breath was still a little unsteady, and his voice was soft.

Edmond's eyes were dark and he was about to speak.

Lin Ke shouted!

"Edmond!" Then a bouquet of red roses appeared before his eyes.

Edmund froze!

His forehead twitched, looking at Lin Ke's smiling face, he fell silent...

This move was so speechless, Edmond felt deeply helpless and frustrated

"You don't like it?" Lin Ke was puzzled, and then he shook his hands, and the rose disappeared.

Edmund: ...

"What about this one?" Then another white flower appeared in front of Edmund's eyes. Edmund took it and took a closer look. It was the white rose he drew when he taught Lin Ke to paint for the first time that night. .Lin Ke successfully carved it with gold nuggets, a golden white rose!

Edmund played with it, with a look of joy and anger on his face.

"Don't you like it?" Lin Ke muttered, and then he rushed over and hung on Edmond.

Edmund was afraid that he would fall off the bed, so he had to support him. Then Linko grinned, and he took out something from nowhere and handed it to Edmund.

Edmund took him in his arms, looked at the present, and found that it was a pocket watch.He opened it and saw a small portrait inside the pocket watch—it was himself!In all fairness, Lin Ke didn't draw well and didn't capture Edmond's charm, but Edmond was moved.He did not deny that when he saw this painting, the joy in his heart was about to overflow.

"Your previous watch is broken, put it on." Lin Ke said, "This is my hard work."

Edmund understood what Lin Ke meant. He always went out by himself secretly some time ago, and Edmond followed him once worried, only to find out that he went to an old man who repaired watches to cook for him.After inquiring carefully, Edmund found out that Lin Ke wanted to learn repair techniques, but the old man didn't want to teach him.So he went to please the old man, and in the end the old man should have agreed. It seems that Lin Kexue has achieved something.

Edmund said with satisfaction: "I like it very much."

Before Lin Ke could show his happy expression, Edmund said again: "But you still have to give me your homework tomorrow."

"Ah! You are really annoying!" Lin Ke wailed, but his voice was quickly blocked by Edmund's lips.
