i am not the elf king

Chapter 17 Entrusted to Me

Two days later, Xi Rong woke up from the coma, and her complexion was much better. It seemed that there was no need to worry about any sequelae.

What made Tong Le depressed was that the first thing this girl did when she woke up was to find the person who was treating her wounds, and the tone seemed a bit wrong.

When Tong Le heard it outside the door, she turned around and left. God knows what she would do to herself if she stayed. Before leaving, she even blessed Xi Tian and said that it was inconvenient for her to see her.

Xi Rong didn't say anything at first, but kept arguing to see Tong Le. After Xi Tian's repeated questioning, she said shyly: "Father, he has seen her whole body, and even helped her with his mouth." My daughter inhaled the poison, should I thank him face to face?"

The word "thank you" is very important. Xi Tian, ​​who knows his daughter well, can't understand what Xi Rong is thinking. He smiled and waved his hands to comfort him: "He also did it to save you...don't worry, being a father will let you He gave you an explanation."

He said so in his mouth, but he didn't think so in his heart. Xi Tian had a kind of idea of ​​getting rich and safe, and never thought about clinging to anyone. Although Tong Le gave him a feeling of mystery, he would not go to him. Too close to Tong Le, who knows what kind of fate this will bring to the family.

Tong Le waited another day and got up to leave. He didn't hide anything, and told Xi Tian that he was going to the Academy of Magic and Martial Arts in the Ace Empire. There was a rush of time, so he left in a hurry.

Xi Tian thought about it for a while, arranged a carriage for Tong Le, and took Tong Le to Vance City, the capital of the Warta Principality, where there was a teleportation array directly leading to the Ace Empire.

From Varta Principality to Ace Monster Academy, there are still several principalities and kingdoms in between. If you don’t know when you will go, Xi Tian’s arrangement is quite reasonable.

As for the teleportation array, Tong Le had already guessed that there would be one, and asked Xi Tian to find out.The principality only has teleportation arrays in the capital, and the higher-level kingdoms only have teleportation arrays in important cities. As for the empire, it is the overlord of the mainland, and almost every town has a teleportation array.

Fortunately, Xi Tian arranged a carriage for him, which saved him the embarrassment of traveling all the way.Of course Tong Le is not too lazy to walk, wouldn't it be silly to have a convenient and quick way to not use it.

To Tong Le's surprise, it was Xi Long who went with him this time. For some reason, Xi Long's attitude towards Tong Le changed, which made Tong Le very uncomfortable.

When the carriage passed through the noisy street, Tong Le poked his head out to take a look, just in time to see the girl he rescued from Xi Long and the little boy standing on the side of the road looking at something.

The girl also happened to look towards Tong Le, and when she saw Tong Le in the carriage, a happy expression appeared on the girl's face, then frowning and beckoning to Tong Le.

Tong Le stopped the carriage suspiciously, jumped out of the carriage and walked over to ask, "Are you waiting for me?"

"Well, grandpa is dying. He said he wanted to meet his benefactor. We don't know where to find him, so we can only wait here." The girl said, her eyes filled with tears.

"Huh? Wasn't it fine before? Why did you suddenly...go and take me to see it?" Tong Le's heart moved, and she turned to look at Xi Long who was following, thinking that this kid might be doing something behind her back Is it a dirty trick?
Seeing Tong Le looking over with malicious intentions, Xi Long quickly shook his hands and explained: "Don't look at me like that, it has nothing to do with me. I haven't left the family for a few days."

"Huh, it's best." Tong Le snorted softly, and followed the girl to the path. Xi Long thought about it and still didn't follow, lest he would be misunderstood again.

Walking through the small alley, Tong Xin suddenly let out a low growl, and at the same time sent a sound transmission to Tong Le: "Boss, be careful!"

At this moment, a black shadow rushed out from the girl's side, and the dagger exuding a cold light directly aimed at Tong Le's heart, fiercely and swiftly.

Tong Le took half a step back and took out the watermelon knife to block, but obviously he couldn't stop the professional killer's blow and was about to be stabbed in the chest.

Tong Xin soared into the air at this time, her body suddenly became several times larger, and her two front paws grabbed at the shoulder of the man in black, making him have to save himself before giving up the attack on Tong Le.

The man in black resolutely gave up the attack, and retreated back to stand ready. He never expected that the childlike heart would suddenly grow bigger, and he was caught off guard.

"It's you again, you're endless, right?" Tong Le was a little annoyed when she saw that it was the man in black who had assassinated her before, she was busy and why did you come out?

The girl walking in front was also frightened, and pulled the little boy to hide in the corner and nervously watched what happened in front of her.

The man in black did not continue to attack, but glanced at Tong Xin, turned around and left the small alley with a slight jump, without saying a word, because he knew that the mission could no longer continue.

"Damn, let's go now? This man is definitely sick!" Tong Le pouted, what kind of trouble is this?How about a decent assassination?

After comforting the girl a little, he continued to walk towards the girl's residence.The girl hesitated for a long time before she spoke softly: "Senpai, I'm sorry, he asked me to bring you here, and I didn't know he wanted to..."

"Well, it's none of your business. Even without you, he would kill me." Tong Le waved his hand indifferently. This killer is a bit cute, and he is used to it.

What needs to be considered now is that the girl asked herself to come and say that her grandfather is dead, so if she is threatened by the killer, is the reason she said true?
Soon I arrived at the dilapidated hut where my grandparents and grandchildren lived. When I entered the house, I was greeted with a musty smell. Under the dim light, the old man who was alive and well a few days ago was lying in the corner.

It can be seen at a glance that the old man's condition is very bad, his eyes are a little dull, and he has lost a lot of weight, with a pair of eyes half-open in the deep-set eye sockets.

"Grandpa, the benefactor is here." The girl walked over and said softly, as if she was afraid of disturbing the old man's rest.

The old man opened his eyes slightly, and when he saw Tong Le, he regained some of his spirit, and stretched out his trembling hand as if trying to grab something.

The girl walked over and held the old man's hand, and said comfortingly, "Grandpa, the benefactor is here. If you have anything to say, just tell the benefactor."

Tong Le also walked over and knelt down, approached the old man and said, "Old man, tell me who hurt you?"

The old man shook his head and said very weakly: "No one hurt me. When the time comes, there is always no escape. Benefactor, the old man has a request. After I go, the two of them will be entrusted to the benefactor. "

"Entrust it to me? They have their own lives, let them choose for themselves." Tong Le had long expected such a result.

　The second one is here, do you guys have any recommendations?
