There's definitely something wrong with this script.

Chapter 412 The Holy See Knights

The girl blinked and looked at him in surprise.

The two of them were sticking to the shadow of the corner of the wall, and two armored men with huge axes walked out quickly from the corner of the aisle. With a ferocious aura, they strode forward without looking sideways.

He didn't turn his head to look to the side at all.

Obviously at this moment, the distance between the two sides is only one pillar, and this narrow wall pillar has not completely covered the figures of the two.

But those two giant axes are like a funny plot in a comic. As long as the target disappears in front of your eyes, no matter where the other party hides, you can't find it again, and you will just chase straight forward.

After the sound of "click" went away, the tight nerves of the traveling poet relaxed a little.

He lowered his head to look at the girl in front of him, the metal sheet that he stopped in time cut through the skin of the girl's neck, and scarlet blood seeped out from the wound, blending with the walnut-colored hair hanging beside her.

The girl was no longer wearing the heavy and cumbersome ornate tower skirt, but a simple and capable horse riding outfit, with her long curly hair tied into a ponytail.

"Sorry." The traveling poet put away the metal sheet in his hand.

"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you that the castle at night is dangerous?" Xu Shuo asked this question first with puzzled eyes.

"..."

"And you hurt yourself."

"..."

The traveling poet looked away a little guilty.

However, the wound on his body was still bleeding, so Xu Shuo didn't ask any more questions when he saw this. He turned his head to look at the situation in the aisle at the corner, and then pulled him out of the shadow.

If you listen carefully, there seems to be a faint sound of metal collisions that are unique to knight armor walking in the distance.

Looking up and looking outside, you can still see occasional figures flashing by in the corridors of the castle.

Those knight armors seem to be scattered throughout the castle.

Xu Shuo didn't take the right path. He opened the door of the next room and went in. Then he went out from the side door of this room and walked up the flying buttress. The two of them went around a few paths and successfully returned to the main hall of the castle main building.

The third floor is the palace where he is currently living. In addition to the main entrance, he can actually enter through the side door that is almost integrated with the wall.

This castle is designed like a maze.

"I'll bandage you up."

The traveling poet sat on a chair and looked up at the girl who turned around and went to the cabinet to take out the medicine box.

He paused and asked, "What are those things, the knight-like armor?"

Xu Shuo walked over with a heavy wooden medicine box inlaid with gold, sat on the chair opposite him, and said, "It's the guard in the castle, and it will come out to patrol every night."

"I've never seen them before... and they look so strange." The traveling poet sneered.

"They have been here as long as I can remember. They would stay in the basement of the castle during the day. My sister despises them as ugly, so they are only allowed to come out at night."

"..."

What a powerful reason to hate it.

Xu Shuo had already untied the clothes on his injured left shoulder, and the blood and the cloth were stuck together, but after cleaning off the dirt, he found that the wound on his shoulder was not serious.

The arrow pierced through his entire shoulder. Logically, there should be a blood hole here, but now there is only a scar that is ripped apart.

It's just that the blood infestation looks a little hideous, but it's actually far from that serious.

"Your injury..." Seeing this, Xu Shuo promptly expressed doubts.

The traveling poet looked down, his expression unchanged, and said, "I have better resilience, these injuries are actually nothing."

Moreover, the flesh and blood cut by the spear on other parts of his body have already healed immediately, and the piercing wound on the shoulder is more serious, and it is still bleeding.

But when the time came, Xu Shuo bandaged him anyway.

The traveling poet didn't refuse either, and let the other party move, only quietly watching the girl in front of him.

She lowered her head slightly, her face was calm and cold, her walnut-colored hair fell on both sides of her cheeks, reflecting her bloodless pale skin, and the depths of those dark eyes were like whirlpools.

After staring at it for a long time, there was an inexplicable sense of dizziness.

Then, he seemed to smell the fragrance of roses lingering all over his body, which was quiet and refreshing, but it was particularly yearning.

The traveling poet slightly turned his gaze away, looking at the window sill not far away.

There were a lot of flowers there, and the red moonlight fell on the window sill, making the already bright red roses more dazzling, as if emitting a faint light.

"The whole frame is full of roses, and the courtyard is full of fragrance, and the scarlet is in full bloom in the thorns."

"what?"

Hearing the sound, Xu Shuo, who was considering whether to tie a bow tie or a dead knot, paused for a moment, then looked up at him in a daze.

The traveling poet froze, and said with embarrassment, "Sorry, I'm reading a poem."

Xu Shuo: "...Oh."

I heard that your code name is Traveling Poet, but you really know how to read poetry...

Traveling poets did not expect to read poetry themselves.

Just now, there was a twitch of his brain, and the memory of the character came to his mind along with the emotions, and then he read out a nonsensical poem.

This is the sequelae of character cards.

Xu Shuo tied a knot in the bandage, and the traveling poet's wound had already been bandaged, but the scene seemed to be awkward because of that suddenly awkward poem.

After a while, Xu Shuo put away the medicine box and said with a smile, "I heard that you have traveled to many places and you are also a famous poet. That's amazing."

The traveling poet twitched the corner of his mouth: "That's ridiculous."

He looked at the figure of the girl packing up her things, and quickly changed the subject: "Those things...I mean the guards in the castle, they don't look like normal people, are they some kind of mechanical device?"

"That, I don't know too well."

Xu Shuo frowned slightly: "They existed a long time ago. In short, as long as no one walks around the castle at night, they won't be alarmed and cause attacks."

"So that's the case. Qi Lisi, do you know the legend of Prague?" The traveling poet suddenly said again.

"The legend of Prague?" Xu Shuo tilted his head to show his curiosity.

Those amber eyes stared at the girl in front of him, and the traveling poet said earnestly: "Yes, it is said that a knight came to Prague a long time ago. He was attracted by the princess who lived in the castle, and the two lived happily ever after. live together."

"..."

"..."

"...So, is it over?"

The traveling poet paused for a moment, thought for a while, and then nodded seriously: "Well, it's over."

Xu Shuo: "..."

Children's bedtime reading is not as fast as yours.

He smiled awkwardly but politely: "This is the legend of Prague? Does the princess also like knights? If so, they should be very happy."

The traveling poet narrowed his eyes: "No, the princess doesn't like knights."

Xu Shuo's eyes moved slightly.

The person in front of him still looked at him calmly, and continued: "The knight threatened the princess. If he doesn't marry him, the Holy See's knights will destroy the castle. For the sake of Prague, the princess can only agree to marry him."

Xu Shuo blinked, and then said harshly, "It is impossible for the princess and the knight to be together happily."

"Well, you're right. So after the princess tricked the knight into the castle, she wiped out the following knight army." The traveling poet said seriously.

"Alex... I think this story doesn't sound very good."

The traveling poet was slightly taken aback, only to see that the girl's expression suddenly became serious.

She said: "I think it should be changed to 'the knight and the princess who lived in the castle fell in love at first sight, and they lived happily ever after, without anyone bothering them'."

After finishing speaking, the girl opened her black pupils wide and looked at him without blinking, as if she was waiting for a response.

The traveling poet slightly bent his mouth: "Well, you're right."

……

However, those armored monsters patrolling the Prague Castle at night were indeed the Knights of the Holy See buried here.

And the badge in his hand.

In fact, it is the proof of honor of the Holy See knight.

……

　Aren't you all curious why Xu Shuo is so teased? Who of you still remember that I was watching Dream of Red Mansions when I wrote this book...
