Chapter 20 The Eagle's Nest

There is always a time to part with each other. When the ship sails into the harbor, it means the end of this journey...

"My boat, wine, stories...you are welcome at any time, my friend."

Beorot shook his beard, his voice was still very loud, and there was no sadness in it.

Since experiencing that pirate incident, Xia Zuo has made such a dwarf friend for no reason. To be honest, in addition to the discomfort when he first met, he still likes this dwarf friend very much. He only feels that he doesn't have to hide himself in front of him, as if he is always in front of Gao Wen. He always feels very relaxed and comfortable. He also likes the unrestrainedness at the sea very much, but Xia Zuo knows that he doesn't belong there after all!

The lifespan of a dwarf is much greater than that of a human, and it is not an easy thing to be a dwarf friend. However, now Xia Zuo naturally doesn't care about these things. He waved goodbye to Borot and continued his journey with Gao Wen...

The two of them came to China and Hong Kong. When they arrived here, it meant that they were not far from Eagle Nest City. In this half month, bows, arrows, fighting spirit, magic... All the training of Xia Zuo was underway as usual, and he himself found some rules from these trainings, which made people unable to discover his secrets at all.

The two did not stay for a long time. After replenishing some food by China and Hong Kong, the two and the dog continued to rush towards Eagle Nest City...

"You are really surprised me more and more!"

In just a short time, the dog Dog had a lot of body size, but this did not surprise Gao Wen. What made him feel curious was that during the period of time on the voyage, Xia Zuo was bored to train Dog, and did not know if it was feeding some medicines, or if Xia Zuo had some special talent in training dogs. Dog Wen was also surprised: not only could he attack and bite with Xia Zuo's command, but he also became much more ferocious in body size, especially when Gao Wen looked at Dog, he always felt that his eyes had become deep and mysterious.

This change made Gao Wen very puzzled, but just like Xia Zuo entered the forest and the unknown period of weakness that day, he also didn't know why.

After all, he was just a young man in his twenties. Although becoming a knight, it only shows that he has enough combat experience and strength, but his experience in life is still limited to himself...

After leaving China-Hong Kong, the road became much wider. I don’t know where Gao Wen knew that Xia Zuo had obtained a bag of money, but since then the responsibility of paying the bill fell into Xia Zuo, which made Xia Zuo feel unhappy for a long time.

However, most of the time, the two of them still lived a life of sleeping in the open. In this process, Xia Zuo's bow and arrow became more and more accurate, which made Gao Wen really think that Xia Zuo has a special talent in this area. Only Xia Zuo himself knew that this was actually related to the magic he had learned in secret.

When he shot his prey, Duoge would rush into the grass independently. Even if Xia Zuo did not shoot them to death, Duoge could still capture the prey, as if he was already a hunting dog.

This kind of life is naturally much better than when he was in the Ailin Forest. However, this is different from what Xia Zuo thought of as a knight tour. In his heart, he once thought: Even if there is no beautiful princess in the mouth of the minstrel, at least a team of soldiers should be with him. This is the posture that a knight should have. But looking at Gao Wen's chin covered with beard again, he always feels like a beggar than a knight!

After more than ten days, the two finally reached Eagle Nest City...

The Eagle Nest City stands in a long valley. The temperature here is not as gentle as the winter city. It is always gentle. It is originally the most abundant kingdom. Moreover, it is mountainous in the territory, easy to defend but difficult to attack. It can not only suppress the lords who are eyeing the covetous princes, but also protect themselves.

The stone brick floor, the buildings made of bricks, the vast and lively neighborhoods, and the figures wearing dresses and long skirts... just stood in front of them, making them look like savages in the mountains.

The Ailin City where Xia Zuo once lived is almost the same as the Eagle Nest City. His past experiences and encounters made him have no inferiority complex when he saw them, but only a sense of curiosity and exploration.

Racing the reins and walking on the hard stone bricks, I don’t know if it was walking on the soft land for too long. Xia Zuo was very uncomfortable with the hard floor, so he drove to a somewhat old manor.

Xia Zuo pushed open the guardrail and pulled the reins through the wall. The people in the manor seemed to hear the sound. Xia Zuo saw a figure with short white hair on his head, about fifty or sixty years old, but quite strong figure walking out of the manor.

As a knight, he can reduce the passage of life through his own strength, so... most people's superficial age is far smaller than their actual age, but this is obviously not something that Xia Zuo needs to care about and pay attention to!

Gao Wen walked straight to him from his crotch. Just as he was about to perform a knight ceremony, the middle-aged knight had already laughed: "I originally thought that a year-long tour would make you change a little, but I didn't expect you to be the same, Gao Wen!"

Gao Wen smiled embarrassedly. Xia Zuo stood not far away and found that Gao Wen, who had once had a gentle face, showed a look like a half-aged child when he saw this middle-aged knight. He had never seen such a look before, and he felt a sense of novelty in his heart.

Valylia looked at Gao Wen happily, and suddenly noticed the figure not far away, and couldn't help but reveal a trace of doubt...

"This is the boy I found during the tour!"

Gowen explained to Valylia.

"It seems that a lot of things have happened to you this year. When dinner comes, you have to talk to me!"

Valylia looked up and down at Xia Zuo and called the two to enter the manor.

The three of them walked to the hall. After a while, an elderly servant placed the food on the long table. Valylia sat on the long table. Gao Wen and Xia Zuo sat on both sides of him, eating food while talking about the experience of the year...

Because he was not very familiar with Valylia, Xia Zuo seemed quiet while sitting on the long table. He just listened to Valylia's hearty laughter that was different from Gao Wen and the swear words he spit out from time to time. It was hard to imagine that the gentle and kind Gao Wen was taught by him. But for some reason, Xia Zuo had a little more unknown intimate feeling about this old knight!
