Chapter 17 Tolls

Zhou Mingyi directly explained to Matisse the black phoenix's kidnapping of the princess and his own robberies.

"Those cult lunatics!" Mattis smashed the kettle on the table.

"I knew they would do ridiculous things, but I didn't expect them to dare to care about our Oshos royal family!"

When he said this, he glanced at Alyssa secretly. Seeing that she had no expression, he continued to curse: "I have seen it a long time ago, so I broke off cooperation with them very early! Knowing that they last time Do you want me to get you something? A baby under the age of one! Who else can do such an animal thing except them? Now that they have caused such a big trouble, those lunatics will go to hell sooner or later!"

He was cursing, and his old face turned red.

"Your Highness Princess, don't worry, I will do my best to help you get out of here! Even if it costs me my life."

"Okay, okay, I'll show my loyalty here first. I don't need your old life. You just need to find a way to give us the land where we can pass the Gist Army." Zhou Mingyi clapped his hands and said.

"Gist Army?" Matisse looked at Zhou Mingyi.

"Yes, we plan to enter the Kingdom of Ruoli from there and send the princess out, but that side is currently occupied by the Gist Legion. You have cooperated with them and think of a way for us to get there."

"Well." Matisse frowned, "It's easy to get out. I often help people sneak out. As long as the people at the checkpoint see that they are brought by me, they will let them go. I've also walked over to Haven, but I I haven’t contacted them for a year. The last time they asked me to buy a batch of healing potions, but I realized after I collected the money that I couldn’t get enough.”

Zhou Mingyi had a bad feeling.

"You guys, there's no conflict, right?"

"Well, I ended up getting some inferior products mixed in, but they never came to me after delivery, probably because they didn't find it," Mattis said.

"."

Zhou Mingyi had a headache. If he was discovered, this would be the only way out.

Noticing that Alyssa's expression was a little disappointed, Matisse said quickly: "Don't worry, Your Highness, let me think of a solution."

Matisse thought for a moment and quickly remembered something. He stood up and walked to the cupboard. He leaned half of his body in and took out a dusty wooden box after searching for a long time.

He placed the wooden box on the table and dusted it off.

"Haven, the leader of Gist, is particularly fond of ivory art. I happen to have one in my collection. If I give this to him, even if he discovers the inferior ones, he probably won't care."

He opened the wooden box and lifted the red cloth covering it, revealing an exquisite, milky white hollow ivory sculpture.

Matisse connected the wooden box with both hands and pushed it in front of Alyssa.

"I will make it up to you later." Alyssa said to Matisse seriously.

"No, no, no! How dare I ask for compensation for such a trivial matter? I just, just hope..." Matisse said, choking up.

"I understand," Alyssa said sternly, "As the princess of the Kingdom of Osius, I promise that I will apply to the parliament and use this meritorious service to pardon your sins and regain the legal citizenship of Osius. "

Matisse burst into tears when he heard this, and he knelt down in excitement. Alyssa hurriedly helped him up.

"I'm going to make preparations and take you there." Matisse stood up tremblingly and said.

"Hey, wait, wait." Zhou Mingyi pulled him aside and whispered: "You can't go with us now, you have to stay here."

"What do you mean? You let me stay here and you ran away?"

Just when Matisse was about to have an attack, Zhou Mingyi quickly explained: "Listen to me, there will be many misfortunes along our journey. You are an old man, how can you withstand the torment? You might as well stay here, if the Knights If someone found this place, wouldn’t you just be able to take credit directly?”

Zhou Mingyi couldn't let Matisse leave here. He had to leave a message to the knights who came here. “What if they didn’t come here?” Matisse looked at Zhou Mingyi suspiciously.

".This doesn't affect anything. Didn't you hear what the princess said just now? She promised to clear up your sins and let you return to the country. Are you still worried about going back on her promise?" Zhou Mingyi patted his shoulder. said.

Matisse turned his eyes a few times and seemed to realize that he really did not need to follow them. If something unexpected happened along the way, he would have to risk his life if he could not return to the country.

"Okay, I will listen to you this time. I will give you the token for clearing the customs. You have to keep an eye on the princess. I have been thinking about this for more than ten years." Matisse glared at Zhou Mingyi and said .

"Don't worry, this is what I'm thinking too." Zhou Mingyi smiled at him.

Matisse prepared a contact letter with Gist for them, and Zhou Mingyi left Matisse's residence with the wooden box containing the ivory sculpture.

"Look, let me just say that he is still loyal to you, right?" Zhou Mingyi said to Alyssa.

"Yes." Alyssa looked a little guilty at this time, "but I can't really guarantee that the House will agree to pardon him."

"Why do you want to do this? It will all happen later anyway. What you have to consider now is whether you can escape." Zhou Mingyi said.

He was not worried about this kind of thing at all. Matisse made up for his mistakes and was pardoned and returned to Osius. He wrote the plot. Although he lost his identity as a count in the end, it still had a good ending. In the end He also stayed in his hometown and lived out his life.

After leaving the sewer and returning to the car along the original route, Zhou Mingyi opened the map again to confirm the itinerary.

"If nothing else happens, if we leave now, we can probably reach the Kingdom of Ruoli tomorrow night. By the way, princess, can you drive?" Zhou Mingyi asked.

"According to Osho's law, I'm not old enough to get a driver's license," Alyssa said.

".Then I'll work harder."

Sana couldn't drive either, so he had to drive alone for a day and a night.

"But I have mastered the basic driving skills and have tried driving in the past. Besides, the laws of the kingdom have no effect here, right?"

"Okay, let's take turns." Zhou Mingyi said.

It is indeed better to have someone to change shifts, and I will be more energetic, and it will be easier to deal with unexpected situations later.

They followed the planned route to the north, bypassing gathering points and passes along the way. As dusk approached, Zhou Mingyi stopped to replenish fuel, take a break and replenish food.

Alyssa looked at the sunset in the distance with fascination. A red sun dyed half of the sky blood red.

This is one of the few beautiful scenes in this land.

Let Shana go up to a high place to stand guard while Zhou Mingyi adds water to the off-road vehicle's water tank.

Taking advantage of this time, he lit a cigarette and took a puff.

"Are you a smoker?" Alyssa looked over.

"This is not cigarette, it is Kanerluo hay." Zhou Mingyi explained casually.

"By the way, you are an infected person," Alyssa said, "But isn't there an inhalation spray? Won't there be a lot of impurities if you inhale it directly like this?"

Zhou Mingyi laughed dryly, "Princess, isn't your statement equivalent to asking those poor people who can only afford coarse grains why they don't eat fine white flour? Isn't it unnutritious to eat like this?"

Alyssa choked and said nothing more.
