Chapter 1252 Return of the Dragon King
Phoenix's delicate body trembled slightly, and a trace of bitterness flashed in her eyes. She lowered her head slightly and said softly: "Well, there is indeed an eccentric astrologer in the capital, named August. Although his status is not prominent and far inferior to the adults in the palace, his fees are It was relatively cheap, which gave us a glimmer of hope when we were already in dire straits, so my father took me to Ogut’s residence with the idea of giving it a try.”
Lin Fan listened quietly and couldn't help but feel a little curious about this astrologer. He smiled slightly and said: "It seems that although Mr. Ogut is not popular and trusted by everyone, your Cang family is somewhat lucky. At least, he helped you figure out the whereabouts of Xuanshui, which is also It’s a rare opportunity.”
Phoenix nodded slightly, with a helpless smile on his face, "Yeah, maybe this is God's will. When we needed help the most, Mr. Ogut appeared. Although his temper is indeed weird and unpredictable. It’s not clear, but his ability is undoubted. He told us that Xuanshui may be hidden deep in Sun Yao Mountain, which gave us a glimmer of hope.”
At this point, Fenghuang's tone suddenly became heavy, "In order to find Xuanshui, my father specially hired four mercenaries from the 'Scorpio Mercenary Group' with a large sum of money to accompany me. They helped me solve a lot of troubles and problems along the way. It was difficult, but I didn’t expect that they would all die here in the end.”
A trace of sadness and anger flashed in her eyes, "The demands of those dead soldiers are too harsh. Not only do they want us to pay a huge amount of property, but they also want us to use Xuanshui as reward. We know that there is little hope, but we still have to come. Now that four mercenaries have died and Xuanshui's whereabouts are unknown, how should I explain to my father when I go back?"
Lin Fan looked at Phoenix's sad and helpless eyes, and couldn't help but feel sympathy and pity in his heart. He gently held Phoenix's hand and said softly: "Phoenix, don't be too sad. All of this was caused by the greed and cruelty of those dead soldiers. You have tried your best, and I believe your father will understand you. "
He paused and continued: "Besides, we still have hope. Since Mr. Ogut can figure out the whereabouts of Xuanshui, maybe he has other clues or methods. We can go back to him and ask him. There may be new discoveries.”
Fenghuang raised his head and looked at Lin Fan's firm eyes, and couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart. She knew that she was not alone, and that Lin Fan was by her side to accompany her and support her. She nodded gently and said, "Thank you, Lin Fan. I will cheer up, for my father, for the Cang family, and for the mercenaries who sacrificed their lives."
Her eyes shone with determination, as if she had found the motivation and courage to move forward again. Lin Fan smiled slightly. He knew that Fenghuang was a strong and brave girl and she would be able to overcome this difficulty.
The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding and resonance at this moment. They know that the road ahead is still long and difficult, but they are ready to face all challenges and difficulties.
They decided to return to the capital to find Mr. August for more clues. Maybe this weird astrologer has other methods or suggestions that can help them find Xuanshui. Although hope is slim, they will not give up as long as there is a glimmer of hope.
They encountered various difficulties and challenges on the way back to the capital. Sometimes it's bad weather, sometimes it's rugged terrain, sometimes it's ferocious monsters. But no matter what difficulties they encountered, they held each other's hands tightly to face and overcome them together.
Their relationship has also become deeper and firmer through these tests. They know that no matter what storms and challenges they may encounter in the future, as long as they are together, they will be able to overcome everything and reach the other side of happiness. Finally one day they returned to the capital and found Mr. August's residence. When they appeared in front of Ogut, a trace of surprise and joy flashed in the eyes of the weird astrologer.
"You are back? Are you still alive?" August's voice was trembling as if he had seen something incredible.
Phoenix smiled slightly and said: "Yes, we are back. Although we encountered some troubles, we finally came back alive."
Mr. August couldn't help feeling relieved when he saw their firm eyes and calm demeanor. He sighed and said: "It seems that you are indeed destined for each other. You were able to survive in such a desperate situation and found me here."
He paused and continued: "Actually, I told you that Xuanshui is risky in Sun Yao Mountain. Because it is a mysterious and dangerous place and very few people can come back alive. But not only did you come back, you also found me. This makes me admire you very much.”
Hearing this, Lin Fan and Fenghuang couldn't help but feel surprised. They didn't expect that this weird astrologer would think so highly of them. This made them feel a little flattered and a little touched.
Phoenix bowed slightly and said: "Thank you, Mr. August. Without your guidance, we would have been in despair. Now, although we have not found Xuanshui, we still hope to get more clues and suggestions from you."
Mr. Auguste smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, I have already calculated it for you. Although the whereabouts of Xuanshui are still unclear, you are not without hope. As long as you continue to persevere, you will definitely gain something."
He paused and continued: "And I have a suggestion that may help you find the whereabouts of Xuanshui."
Lin Fan and Fenghuang looked at each other with a hint of expectation and curiosity in their eyes. They knew that since this weird astrologer said so, he must have his reasons and basis.
