The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 126: The Tower of the Empty Nest (middle)

"Boom, boom, boom." An annoying knock on the door sounded again, "Brother Jona, are you okay, you have been in the bathroom for forty minutes, do you need help? Is it the legendary constipation?... No wonder I just saw your pale complexion, dull lips, dizziness, palpitation, tiredness, weak tongue, thin tongue, constipation caused by weakness and qi deficiency. That’s right. My family’s ancestral acupuncture technique uses Dachangshu, Mo acupoints, Sanjiao, The acupoints of the kidney meridian can replenish qi and blood, moisturize the intestines and relax the bowels. If you don’t tack it, you can pull it up without stopping."

Asai’s voice buzzed like a fly, and Jonah wondered that he had only discovered that this Oriental is so annoying until now, “No, I don’t have constipation, I’m just thinking about something, so I’ll go out immediately. "The astrologer apprentice stood up and walked to the washbasin. He picked up cold water and poured it on his face. The person in the mirror looked weak and haggard. Jonah patted his face and tried to cheer up.

Opening the door and walking out of the bathroom, Asai was sitting at the coffee table with a glass of drink enjoying the night. Hearing him coming out, he turned his head and smiled: "Come and be happy, this juice is very delicious, I don’t know what it is. The fruit comes."

Jonathan smiled and said: "Did you remind me to be vigilant on the road, why I started eating and drinking when I came here." As he said, he walked over and sat across from the Oriental and picked up a cup of gold. Take a sip of the yellow juice,

"I have prepared it. Poisons and the like are my specialty, so I won't eat myself to death." Asai blinked, "Besides, you forgot what happened at the banquet. Now the father and son are facing each other. , Vying to drag you to your own camp, no one will be stupid enough to poison your food at this time."

The astrologer apprentice put down the glass and said strangely: "Why don't I remember anything."

The Oriental grinned, showing neat white teeth: "Brother Yona, you drank too much. Just when the main dish roasted peacock was served, the high-ranking nobles of the two factions began to toast to you one by one. I blocked a few for you Cup, I can’t hold you, a solid-eyed guy who took the initiative to pour it down...you just got down before the desserts were on the table, gee tee, frozen strawberry mousse cake wow... don’t worry, I will eat it for you, An inhospitable host will be sad."

"Two factions, which two factions." Jonah asked confusedly. He did not have any memory left. The banquet scene was chaotic after eating the salad.

"The faction of the emperor and the faction of the auxiliary minister." Asai explained, "There seems to be a bit of disagreement within Tocharo now. The imperial power has been separated. The King Isaibaink supported by Prince Harimayan is the king in name. But the military power is firmly controlled by the minister, the prince, and the governor of the guards, Heremias. Our lord mayor is a supporter of this person. Don’t look at the lord mayor bragging about the wise and old of the emperor along the way. Dad’s power, in fact, the relationship with the old prince was so intense that he almost fought for a peacock leg at the table."

When I said so, Jonah had a faint impression, "Oh yes, yes, the table here seems to be a friend of Prince Harimayan Emil Shakar, and the other side of the table is the town. Guests invited by Changdu Shakar."

"The entire table was filled with electric sparks." The oriental clapped his hands and laughed happily. "It's a shame not to see them fighting. I thought the battle between the father and son would become a splendid group fight. "

"Did I say anything that shouldn't be said." The astrologer apprentice asked vaguely,

"No, no, no matter who sincerely invites you to join the relevant camp, you blush and say thank you, and then there is no more. You are really a master of Tai Chi." Asai gave a thumbs up,

"Tai Chi."

"A martial art in the East...You don't understand even after you say it."

"Oh, why did the mayor send us to Harimaya Manor, that is not his father's site." Jona scratched his head,

The Oriental squeezed his eyes narrowly: "You think that the precious steam puppet carriage of the'Midnight Star' can be controlled by a small mayor. The destination is determined by the old prince long ago, and the mayor On the road, I want to have a good relationship with us, just want to add some favors."

"This way, the adult world is really complicated." Jona sighed unconsciously, and then realized that this sentence was too naive, and blushed: "No, I mean..."

"That's right, the adult world is too complicated." Unexpectedly, Asai agreed with him and nodded seriously: "It would be great if he could go back to when he was ten years old, except for practicing killing techniques and Apart from playing, you don’t have to do anything, you don’t have to think about anything..."

"."

The astrologer apprentice felt like he had heard something extraordinary, and suspected that it was just an auditory hallucination, "...Uh, by the way, I still don’t know your true profession, what do you think of it? Birth." he asked weakly,

"I, I can barely be considered a thief in terms of professionalism." The Oriental thought for a while, and replied frankly, "It's just a lazy type, and the business is bleak, so I don't want to be hungry."

"Oh oh." Jonah replied, unconsciously hugging his buckskin bag, Asai haha ​​laughed, "Don't be afraid, brother Jonah, I already know what's in your bag. , I admit that curiosity is my biggest weakness, but it is my life rule not to be allowed to shoot with partners, Ann,,, although I am really interested in the magic elves in the bottle."

Jona didn’t know what to say, so he just smiled awkwardly,

The sea is wide and the sky is free to chat until late at night. Orientals are a good chat partner. Jonah feels that his emotions have calmed down a lot. It’s a big deal." Asai immediately stood up, closed the window, and took out the spare sheets and bedding from the closet.

"What will happen tomorrow." The astrologer apprentice is out of the situation again,

"The trials." Asai said, "Tomorrow afternoon there will be two trials at the same time in the Golden City: the selection of royal warriors invited by the emperor of Isaib Ink and those held by the prince of Heremias. Guards fighting skill competition, you choose, I listen to you, choose one of the two, this is obviously to fight each other to tear down each other, to say that His Majesty is really tolerable... Forget going to sleep." He hugs the quilt. Go to the bedroom door,

"Asai, where are you going? This bed is very big. It would be nice to sleep together at night." Jonah asked in a daze,

The Oriental smiled back: "Hey, it's really hard to refuse the invitation... But I'll go to the second sleeper, I don't look honest." He walked to the wall and pushed aside the wall. The small door with the same color pattern walked in, "The second bedroom is so luxurious, really... Brother Jona, good night." He waved his hand and closed the door of the second bedroom.

The astrologer apprentice didn't know that there was another bedroom. He was surprised. Only then did he feel that the invitation just now seemed a bit ambiguous. He blushed and wanted to explain. The next room was silent." ...Forget it, go to sleep." Jonah stood for a while, stomped onto the soft and comfortable bed, put on the pajamas he had prepared, and got into the bed.

"Strange, when I was with Asai, I was always the first to fall asleep. I have never seen him go to bed before." He said to himself, and Rose suddenly came up in Jona’s mind. ·Ross was covered in blood, wrapped his hands and feet tightly in the duvet, secretly exposed his eyes, staring at the black hole window, behind the white gauze curtain, sparse stars illuminating the dark garden, there, will there be A woman covered in blood stood quietly among the flowers and spied herself,

I don’t know how long it has been, I finally fell into a deep sleep, opened my eyes again, and at dawn, Asai opened the curtains with a "wow", stood in the sunlight in front of the French window, and squinted comfortably: " Get up, Brother Jona, the beautiful day has just begun."

"Good morning... I hope it's a good day." The astrologer apprentice rubbed his eyes and muttered,

While enjoying a hearty breakfast, the father and son appeared at the table again at the same time. Prince Harimayan told Jonah that a four-wheeled carriage with royal emblems had been prepared for the two of them, 24 hours a day. Waiting to be dispatched at a young age, the coachman knows the streets and alleys of the Golden City very well, especially the road leading to the Hall of Valor, the place where the Golden Warriors choose to be held. The Lord Mayor smiled and invited them to visit Bakkert. One of the most famous tourist attractions in Riyadh and the paradise that every man dreams of is the "Hot Wind Valley". On both sides of this 4,000-yard street, there are steam baths and essential oil massage rooms. They come from all corners of the world and have different ethnic groups. , Young female technicians of different skin colors swear solemnly in front of Luta, the **** of fertility, to help guests from afar to wash away the dust on their bodies and restore the male power. In addition, the Guards Fighting Tournament is not far away. Held everywhere,

Although Asai was a little moved by Lord Mayor’s proposal, Jonah chose to accept the kindness of Lord Prince. Half an hour later, the two of them sat in a black four-wheeled carriage and stared at them. Jian Ma Kuang hissed, and the wheels began to roll forward,

"Is it fun to ride in a carriage?" The oriental stared at the astrologer apprentice, "I haven't enough seated on the way. Isn't it logical to take a bath when I'm tired?"

Jonah asked back: "You haven't told me why we have to participate in the trials."

Asai was taken aback for a moment, "Well... you know, I'm going to the Vedic country to do things. Now the road between the two countries is under total martial law, and a military title is required to get close to the border, so... Right."

"You can go there by yourself, I still have my business to do, but I can't accompany you to the Veda." Jonah said strangely,

"It’s a little bit difficult to pass the assessment with my current strength..." The Oriental said a little embarrassedly, "In short, it doesn’t hurt. No matter what you are going to do, it’s always a good thing to have a military background. Right."

The astrologer apprentice shook his head and did not speak any more. Before leaving, he instructed the coachman to drive the carriage to the direction of the Astrology Association. There is an astrological tower inside the Golden City, where he can find the long-lost intimacy, and even find Mr. Koshava’s news, if the association has not withdrawn yet,
