The Winter of Ice and Fire Is Coming - Chapter 1051
Pat looked around in surprise, no one else.
Roxi has already gone upstairs.
But this is too scary.
How could the swordsman say such words publicly, and Roxi heard the wording of the deal, and saw a golden dragon, and said he was waiting for an alchemist. Pat saw Roxi’s face changed. He, Roxi, and the alchemist, this is the secret of the three parties.
It was Roche who eloped with Pat. She told Pat that there was an alchemist who could help Pat to earn a golden dragon, and then the two of them flew far away without telling her mother Emma.
But suddenly a swordsman who also knew the secret of the deal came out.
Pat is indeed waiting for the alchemist, but this is not something that can be said here.
Every time the alchemist came to him, he had to look back and forth, and his face was hidden in his hood.
Until now, Pat has never seen the true face of an alchemist.
For a golden dragon, Pat had made a lot of struggles in his heart before he came here with this black iron key.
An unknown swordsman told him, Roxi, and the alchemist’s secret.
This surprised Pate.
Pete stood up and walked out of the quill wine bottle.
Fortunately, the terrible swordsman had been sitting and didn’t move.
A swordsman who appeared suddenly, a faceless alchemist, wanted to trade him for the black iron key, a key that could open all the gates of the school city.
Pater was so nervous that he dared not turn his head. He didn’t understand what kind of force was staring at Xuecheng. There was only his own footsteps beside him.
Crossing the wooden bridge, crossing the long street, and when you set foot on the narrow alleys of Xuecheng, there was a figure in front.
Usually, people come and go from morning to night near the Yubi wine bottle; the old town is also a city that is not closed, but because of the strange swordsman who suddenly appeared, and the alchemist who has been waiting for a long time, this makes Pete I felt nervous and wary of the figure in front of me.
In Xuecheng, who is eyeing something?
Recently, the most talked about in the “Old Town and Xuecheng” is the topic of ghosts and dragons. In addition to the research of various scientific knowledge, the Xuecheng is ancient books and books.
The swordsman said the deal in front of Roxi in the feather pen wine bottle, which frightened Pat. It seemed that Roxi was also terrified of the mysterious swordsman. As soon as she heard the swordsman say the deal, the alchemist, and then took out a golden dragon, she hurried upstairs.
There must be something wrong!
How could a swordsman come to join this deal suddenly? !
Pat lowered his head and walked quickly. He didn’t want to know who the shadow was in front of him, and he didn’t want anyone to see him now.
The quill wine bottle is the most frequent place for bachelors and apprentices. If you encounter a bachelor, it will make Pater even more disturbed.
“Hi!” a soft voice sounded.
Pat stopped, and he heard who the voice was: the alchemist.
Pat was taken aback!
“… Here you are… You said that you met in the feather pen wine bottle…”
“I said, but you and your friends are playing archery games together, I think I’d better not disturb you.”
“Really? Are you alone or do you have a companion?”
Maybe the swordsman is the alchemist’s partner.
“I have only one person, really.”
Pat looked at the Mijiu River in the mist. There was an island in the river. There was a tavern with feather pen wine bottles on the island. There was a mysterious swordsman who wanted to make a deal with him.
Pat was hesitant to tell the alchemist about the swordsman.
He thought of Roxi, and finally decided not to tell.
All for Rosy.
Get a golden dragon and solve everything!
“Then, trade.” Pat said. He felt that his mouth was suddenly dry. He lost his judgment on whether this matter was right.
“Well, I want to see your key first.”
“Pay with one hand and deliver with the other.” Pat said. He didn’t want to be snatched by the other party. Alchemists weren’t a good thing. Xuecheng is very repulsive to alchemists and magicians, thinking that their character is bad.
“No problem,” the alchemist said. A golden dragon appeared in his hand, but the light here was very dim. Pat didn’t know if the golden dragon was real or fake.
Can’t be deceived, in the feather pen wine bottle, waiting for a swordsman who is willing to trade a golden dragon. If it doesn’t work here, you can actually trade with the swordsman. That guy helped him, why not?
“How do I know you didn’t lie to me?”
“What lie to you?” The alchemist said lightly without being angry at all.
“Is the Golden Dragon real or fake.”
“You can try it with your teeth,” the alchemist said.
Pat hesitated, to be honest, he couldn’t tell the truth of a golden dragon. Usually, he has little chance to come into contact with Golden Dragon.
“Let me see first.”
“No problem.” The alchemist said relaxedly.
This calmed Pate a lot.
“Don’t try to lie to me, really, I know Golden Dragon. One side is the head of a certain king, and the other side is a dragon with three heads.”
“You are not wrong at all.”
The alchemist handed the golden dragon over, and Pate took it. With the faint light of the lighthouse in the distance and the light of the torch on the wooden bridge, he saw the pattern on the golden dragon. The pattern was correct. In order to show that he is hard to be deceived, he bit, unable to tell what it was like.
Gold is a little softer than steel, but Pat can’t compare because he has never bitten steel.
“How about it, Pat.” said the alchemist.
“It’s true, I’m sure.”
“Then, trade it.” said the alchemist.
“What do you want to do with this key?” Pete asked. He has a strong sense of crime, “You made me a thief.”
“This is your choice, isn’t it. I will give you the Golden Dragon, and you will give me the key.” said the alchemist.
“Do you want to steal some kind of ancient book from the library?”
“No comment!” said the alchemist.
“Oh, okay!” As long as he takes out the key, this golden dragon is his, and Roxi of the feather pen wine bottle is his.
Pater made up his mind.
“Deal!” he said.
“Deal!” The alchemist also said.
Pat took out the black iron key and held it tightly in his hand: “Can I know your name?”
“An unknown person, really.”
“Then, I want to look at your face. This is my last request, and then we will close the deal.”
“Well, as long as you are happy,” said the alchemist. He pulled down his hood. “Look, Pat.”
Pat saw a head of blond hair, a pair of bright eyes, a hooked nose, a deep outline of his face, a stranger, a stranger he had never seen before.
“I do not know you!”
“I don’t know you either!”
Pat gave the black iron key to the alchemist, and the alchemist handed the golden dragon back to Pat again.
It’s done!
Pat touched the golden dragon with his fingers, and he knew that this was his Roche.
“Pat, have you heard that there are burning glass candles in Xuecheng?” the alchemist said casually.
“I’ve heard that glass candles are an open secret in the school city. According to legend, it is a thousand years ago, hundreds of years before the end of Valyria’s catastrophe, and they brought four from Valyria to the old town, one green The three blacks are all long and twisted.”
Pat walked forward, toward the direction of Xuecheng.
There are many churches in this generation: Sailor’s church, Lord’s church, Swordsman’s church… Seven sacred churches… Red sacred church… For the largest port city on the mainland of Westeros, there are people from all over the world. People, so there are churches from all over the world.
In the distance, inside the school city, there is also a ‘Starry Church’.
“Four glass candles? Are they all lit?” the alchemist asked.
Pater then realized that the alchemist was following him.
Since there are many churches here, maybe the two of them share a common path.
“The glass candle has never been lit, but some people say that there is a burning glass candle in Dr. Malwin’s room. But I don’t believe it, how could glass burn, right?”
“Then have you seen glass candles with your own eyes?”
“I have seen one, black, dull, with very sharp edges. A light touch will open a hole. I heard that it is a candle made of obsidian. Dragon Crystal, yes, they all said it was Dragon Crystal. “
“Dragon Crystal Candle, oh, you are so knowledgeable.” said the alchemist.
This ordinary sentence made Pate very enjoyable and comfortable. He has never received much respect, and serving the old doctor who can’t even remember his name is so statusless, everyone looks down on him. The thing he did the most was to serve the old bachelor to the toilet and wash his underwear. There were a lot of indescribable stolen goods on it.
Pate cleared his throat: “The night before each assistant bachelor swears to become a bachelor, he must watch the night in the cellar, and he must not carry any light, no torch, no oil lamp, no incense…just a glass candle.”
“Oh, then the night before you became a bachelor, it will be the same.”
Pat has no chance to become a bachelor. He should have gone to see Roxi right away, but he didn’t know if the terrible swordsman had left. He decided to go to the feather pen wine bottle tomorrow morning, give Emma a golden dragon, and then take Luo with him. Hee leaves the old town.
“Yes, but I must first become an assistant bachelor, and then spend the night before becoming a bachelor in the dark, unless I can light the candle. Some idiots will really try and practice the so-called’advanced mystery.’ ‘The guys can’t wait. It just cuts my finger. If it were me, I would just go to sleep.”
“It’s strange, but what is the use of a non-luminous candle?”
“Glass candles represent truth and knowledge. They are precious, beautiful and fragile. The shape of the candle reminds us that no matter where we serve, the bachelor must radiate light and dispel ignorance; the sharp edge of the candle warns us that knowledge has a dangerous side. To be a bachelor, we must always remain humble; in the end, the glass candle reminds us that we cannot light the candle anyway… Even if a person is full of knowledge, he is not omnipotent.”
‘It’s so full of philosophy! “Said the alchemist.
“However, there are also rumors that someone lit a glass candle. The old doctor I served also said that a candle was lit and never extinguished, and it has been burning somewhere in the school city. But the old doctor is almost close to dementia. Untrustworthy.”
“Oh, did the old doctor see a burning candle?”
“Maybe. He said that the candle emits weird and bright light, much brighter than any other candle. It casts a strange shadow, and it never flickers, even if the wind blows in from the open door, there is no shadow. .”
“What is the name of the old doctor you served?”
“Wograve.”
The night fog gradually thickened, and the scenery of the old town gradually became unclear around it, like a ghost gradually fading. In the distance, the towering tower of the old town is located at the mouth of the river. The beacon on top of it splits the misty sky, dazzling.
The tower is located on the cliffs of Zhengzhan Island, and the cast shadows cut through the city like a sword. Some people even claim that standing on the top of the tower, you can always see the Great Wall.
“Pat, do you still want to earn a golden dragon?”
Pat stopped and looked at the alchemist.
Now that you have decided to leave the school city, leave the old town, and elope with Rohe, why not? After giving a golden dragon to Emma, there were only nine silver deer in his pocket. This little money would not last long for two people.
If there is a golden dragon!
“If you want to earn another golden dragon, come with me.”
The alchemist walked forward after speaking.
Pat has no time to think about it, no time to weigh. The alchemist went further and further, faster and faster, and Pat quickened his pace to follow. They walked into an alley, turned a turn, crossed the notorious black market, and proceeded along the scavenger alley. Finally, the alchemist turned into another alley, narrower than the previous one.
“Enough is enough,” Petr said. “There is no one nearby. What do you want me to do, just say it here.”
“Ok!”
“I want to see your golden dragon first.”
“Let me show you.” The coin appeared. The alchemist rolled it with his knuckles, just like when Roxi arranged for them to meet.
Roxi arranged for Pater to get on line with the alchemist! Thanks to Roxi, in order to elope with him, he found a not very bright way of trading.
Pat took the gold coin and tested it in the dark.
“Really, after all, what do you want me to do for you?”
“All mortals are mortal,” said the alchemist. “I’m sorry! Pat.” His voice was suddenly full of sadness.
The alchemist’s words are inexplicable!
“What do you want me to do for you?” Pat’s voice was full of panic.
“Everyone must serve. Pat, we are all the same.”
Pater suddenly felt horrified, he turned and fled, footsteps sounded in the alley, and the alchemist did not catch up.
The night was damp and the pebbles were wet and slippery. He fleeed desperately, ah, his heart was pounding, and every click seemed to pop out of his chest.
“What’s the matter?” The legs seemed to melt into water, “I don’t understand.”
“You will never understand.” The alchemist’s voice rang in his ears.
This makes Pat frightened!
Suddenly, the cobblestone ground hit him head-on. How could the warm cobblestone ground under his feet suddenly fly up and hit him? Pat couldn’t understand, he felt the boundless fear overwhelm him, just like this dark night, he desperately called for help, but found that he could not speak at all.
With a bang, the warm stone ground hit Pat’s face and head, and Pat felt his head split apart.
“Rosh!” Pat exclaimed in his heart.
He couldn’t forget Roxi when he was dying.
