Throne Steps

There are not only two girls, Aurora and Jasmine, in the mobile theater troupe. Originally, they were just a little curious about the two new "guards".When Jasmine told the story of Saenz who rescued her, the girls' favorability for Saenz soared immediately.

Aurora, who suddenly has many "rivals in love": ... I have nothing to say.

When they left the town, the girls had already started to circle around Saenz.It was not good for Saenz to suddenly change his persona and treat them coldly, so he had to try his best to find something to do, such as moving things and hunting or something.However, the girls saw with their own eyes Saenz's heroic demeanor when he made a shot and his enthusiasm when he helped, which gave him a higher impression.

When Saenz turned a deaf ear to the whistle from behind, Li Chen was standing not far away and watching coldly.

The troubadour caught a glimpse of this scene, walked towards him and said with emotion: "Life is so fickle. Originally, you and him came together and had a perfect understanding; in a blink of an eye, he became busy, and people around him came and went. go, and you..."

Li Chen raised his eyebrows: "Speak humanly."

"That's right, you look at the girls around him like this, are you jealous?" The two troubadour brothers grabbed Li Chen's shoulders like this, "Oh, you have to know, these girls see each other and love each other like this. They are nothing more than the adjustment of life, the joy of the journey..."

"Be concise."

The troubadour smiled: "That means they won't pester Thrall after the journey is over, so your good brother will be back by then."

Li Chen glanced at him meaningfully.

The troubadour was stunned: "What?"

"I kind of know why you haven't been able to publish a collection of poems after being a poet for so long." This nonsense rate, sonnets can't write a theme that can be summed up in one sentence.

"That's because they don't understand me, okay? They don't understand me!" The troubadour retorted subconsciously, paused, and then suddenly changed his words, "Well, in fact, your idea is also correct, I might really Not suitable for this."

This time, Li Chen was a little surprised: "No way...you have been a poet for decades, can I change your mind with just one word?"

"Then it's really because you think too much. In fact, I have already felt this way." The troubadour smiled and said, "Some things are not enough just to have longing, enthusiasm, hard work, and persistence. God Not responding to your wishes is an answer in itself, because the answer is 'no'."

Li Chen asked: "So, are you going to give up?"

"Maybe, maybe I want to visit the village that has disappeared, just to have a formal farewell to the past me." The troubadour looked into the distance, "Then I will find another job, use another identity, and start afresh. Start living."

Li Chen smiled: "It seems that we are different."

"How to say?"

"What I believe in must be done to the extreme, and only when I get a clear result can I accept my fate." Li Chen also looked at the distant sky, "A summer insect, if you don't work hard to survive until winter, how can you know what is wrong with the world? Is there any ice left?"

His tone was light, but the troubadour somehow heard a kind of coldness, probably because he used life and ice as a metaphor.

"But Xia Chong needs to give up a lot if he wants to live until winter, doesn't he?" the troubadour said with self-deprecating emotion, "Besides, even if he abandons everything, Xia Chong may not survive winter..."

Li Chen glanced at him, and finally brushed off the hand on his shoulder: "Everyone has a different definition of 'persistence', I don't care about you, and likewise, I don't have to tell you my definition."

Knowing that there was something in his words, the troubadour smiled: "Wow, it sounds like you are a person with a story."

"It's a pity that I'm not a writer." Li Chen said calmly and walked away.

The troubadour suddenly felt that this calm-looking Ruisen was more interesting than that Thrall who was always "harassed" by girls.Because there are always people around Sal, it is easy for people to notice what he does, such as setting up tents, such as hunting, such as some previous experiences.And Li Chen didn't talk to others very much, and he didn't take the initiative to blend in with others, so he seemed a little alienated.In addition, he always seems to be standing far away, so everyone always has the illusion that "he always seems to be standing there watching".

It was an illusion, because the troubadour suddenly observed Li Chen with great interest.

He didn't harass anyone, but how could Li Chen not notice his gaze, especially when he was so open!

So Li Chen asked, "What's the matter?"

"No." The troubadour smiled, "I just wanted to ask, what are you doing?" When I got up early in the morning, everyone else was packing up, and I saw Li Chen going around the neighborhood several times, looking left and right. Look, but there seems to be no goal.

Li Chen casually replied, "Check the traces."

The troubadour asked blankly, "Traces? What traces? From wild beasts? Didn't we arrange for night watchmen? Why are you checking these?"

Li Chen said angrily, "Do you know magic or fighting spirit?"

"I don't understand."

"Then shut up, you won't understand."

Near noon, the trolley used by the mobile troupe to hold performance props suddenly sank into a small piece of soft mud. The troubadour and Sal went to help lift the trolley, and when they looked up inadvertently, they saw Li Chen standing not far away He looked at this side lightly, and then walked away.

When he returned, the team had already started again.The troubadour squeezed beside him and asked, "What were you doing?"

Li Chen glanced at him: "Check for traces."

"Okay, you're going to say that I don't understand anymore." The troubadour thought for a while, "Then let me ask this, is this inspection trace the same as the inspection in the morning?"

Li Chen finally turned his head and stared at him for a second, then turned away: "It's different." Then he explained, "This time to prevent emergencies."

"Okay!" The troubadour nodded, wondering if he understood.

During dinner, Li Chen approached the girls to pick wild vegetables piled together, and gently brushed them with his palms through the air.

The troubadour popped up again: "Don't tell me this is also checking traces."

"No." Li Chen twisted the corners of his mouth viciously, "I'm doing a drug test, and then I'll see who is the unlucky one."

The troubadour didn't believe that he would see people being poisoned, and didn't take such words seriously at all, and said, "Are you going to patrol the neighborhood again? I'll go with you!"

Just as Li Chen was about to refuse, Saenz's voice suddenly broke in: "No, I'll go with him."

Li Chen raised his eyebrows, and when the troubadour was thinking about how to keep up, Jasmine also came over: "Is Sal going hunting? Can I follow? I'll just stand and watch from a distance, absolutely not make trouble!"

She patted her chest to assure her that she was very cute, and the troubadour turned his eyes between her and Saenz, showing a knowing expression.

Li Chen smiled: "I won't go hunting, excuse me." After saying that, he turned around and left.

The troubadour turned his feet and wanted to keep up, but Saenz held his shoulders and moved back.This movement seemed very light to others—such as Jasmine—but the troubadour took a few steps backwards.When he stood still, Saenz had already gone to chase Li Chen a few steps away, and even glanced back at him.

The eyes weren't very sharp, but somehow the troubadour just felt like his feet were nailed in place.

The next scene stunned everyone who was paying attention.

Sal followed up with Rui Sen, who had always been acting alone, and was about to walk to the place beside him, when Rui Sen suddenly raised his hand and slid out a dagger and slashed at him!It was too late to say it, but then it was too late, Sal stepped back to avoid the sharp blade, grabbed and turned Risen's wrist, and twisted Risen to turn around.However, Ruisen turned around and grabbed Sal's cheek or neck with his backhand!Sal caught his left wrist just in time, and then pulled it down, and Risen's hands were pinched to death by him.

"You still wear this kind of thing, huh?" Saenz let go of Li Chen's right hand, took off the barbed iron ring on his left middle finger, and threw it aside, "Can you win melee combat? What is the use of such a thing?"

Li Chen's right hand finger moved, and he put the dagger into his cuff neatly and concisely. Then he gave Saenz a middle finger as if he was taking the ring, then turned and left.

Saenz smiled helplessly, and still followed his footsteps.

It wasn't until they walked away that the troubadour picked up the ring that Saenz had thrown away.The ring is made of metal and is distinctive in that there are two distinct, sharp triangular tooth marks on the periphery of the iron ring.

If Li Chen caught Saenz just now, at least he would have blood spattered on the spot.

"Ruisen looks so fierce." Jasmine leaned over to look at the ring. "He seemed to be doing nothing before. I thought he was nothing special. It turns out that he has such fighting power... But Thrall is even more powerful!"

"Nothing to do?"

"Isn't it?" Jasmine tilted her head, "Didn't he always look at everyone? Anyway, I haven't seen him hunting, and I occasionally see him helping to set up a tent. He didn't do anything during the night watch, right? I didn't expect to see him make a move for the first time, but it was against Thrall..."

The troubadour glanced at the girl beside him, and suddenly understood how Li Chen felt when he answered his question today.

"You don't understand." He shook his head with a smile, and put the ring away properly.For some reason, he suddenly felt that Ruisen should have done a lot in secret, enough to save everyone's life.It's just that he was too lazy to say anything, and he was too lazy to correct his impression in the eyes of others.

Even because the impressions of Sal and Ruisen are so different, Sal is more attractive to girls under the comparison of Ruisen.

The ring... Receive it here first, according to Ruisen's habit of always checking around, he will definitely look for it when he comes back.You can tease him then, hehe.

At this moment, the troubadour seemed to have forgotten that even though Li Chen couldn't beat Saenz, the troubadour could solve it in minutes.

[The author has something to say]: When a person is compared with another person, their characteristics will become more and more obvious. When I don’t want to please people, see who is fierce www
