There is a small desk here, with so sundries piled up next to it. There are two small windows on each of the four walls, and there is indeed a cylindrical telescope on one of the windowsills.
The telescope was as long as Xi Ning's forearm, but it was very light. Lin An explained to him how to use it, and opened all the windows while Xi Ning was tinkering the telescope.
Xi Ning adjusted the distance and looked slowly from a close distance to a further distance. There were no living creatures near the outside of the tower. It was not until he looked a little farther that he saw so beasts appeared. It's very interesting, after he had seen enough of this direction he will then change to the other side of the window.
Lin An sat on a chair beside him and waited quietly, his eyes followed Xi Ning all the ti, then he suddenly heard a “huh”.
“What's wrong?”
Lin An got up and approached him, Xi Ning put down the telescope and said in surprise and joy, “I saw the dwarf and the others!”
He didn't notice that Lin An's expression beco slightly cold, and he handed the telescope to him for him to look at, “Look, they are over there.”
Lin An looked in the direction Xi Ning pointed, and he saw the head of the rcenary group walking in the forefront. Behind him were his rcenary subordinates and Ferro’s guard, and the dwarf were among them.
There were so unfamiliar faces in the team, and Lin An recognized them as another group of magicians who had entered the ghost forest.
The two groups had co together, and they looked so harmonious. The most important thing was that there was a magic circle in the inner layer that disrupted their vision, and unexpectedly they were able to find the right direction.
The last ti they t with the rcenary group and others, they heard them saying that they want to find Xi Ning, not to ntion the purpose of them coming straight to the tower now, Lin An's face expression beca colder and colder.
When he joined the rcenary group, he really regarded the head of the rcenary group as a reliable partner, and he never mind if the other party found out his true identity. Now, because of this, the other party found his hiding place.
Killing intent appeared in Lin An's eyes, and the blue ridian on his right face moved slightly. He put down the telescope and said calmly, “Don't worry, they can't get close.”
Xi Ning was taken aback, and asked tentatively, “They should just co looking for , I…… go to inform them that I am safe?”
Lin An imdiately refused, “No way!”
When he turned around, Xi Ning felt that the skin on the right side of his face was distorted, and when he took a closer look, it was still the sa as usual, it seed that he had mistook it just now.
After Lin An finished speaking, he felt that his tone was too harsh, and softened his attitude, “They are still accompanied by strangers, so we have to be careful.”
Hearing this, Xi Ning picked up the telescope to look again, and sure enough, he saw Qiu Nian beside the head of the rcenary group. He was too excited at first to notice that there were other people there.
The purpose of that group of high-class magicians and warriors seems to be to hunt for treasure in the tower? Xi Ning worried, “Then what should I do……”
And he didn't see Ferro, so he didn't know if he had already gone back.
Lin An is not too worried. As long as the magic tower is activated, no one can get close to the gate, let alone attack them. This is why he must bring Xi Ning back first. If he t them on the road or when he left the tower, it was difficult for him alone to protect Xi Ning and fight against them.
Xi Ning thought for a while, then grabbed Lin An's hand, “How about……how about I send a letter to them first? Just say that I'm safe now, so they don't need to co looking for again.”
But Lin An knew very well that even if he asked Xi Ning himself to tell them, the head of the rcenary group and the others might think that he coerced Xi Ning to force him to do so, let alone a letter.
Xi Ning also vaguely realized that. Lin An didn't answer, so Xi Ning lowered his head and said in a low voice, “There is a misunderstanding between us and them, we can’t let this go on.”
If Lin An had explained his intentions to him earlier, he would have taken the initiative to co back with him, and the current situation would not be the sa, but it is useless to say these things now, and he…… is still on Lin An's side after all.
The head of the rcenary group brought so many people with him, he didn't want anyone to get hurt, but he was more worried about Lin An.
The “we” in Xi Ning's mouth seed to appease Lin An. His brows and eyes softened a little,
and he didn't refuse in the end, “Okay, let’s write a letter.”
There happened to be a pen and paper in the attic. Xi Ning wrote a few words, saying that he is with Lin An now and that he is safe, he will go back after a while, so that they don't have to worry and don't have to co to find him anymore.
Lin An was watching from the side. Xi Ning's handwriting was as clean and elegant as him. When he wrote “I'll go back after a while”, Lin An frowned, but didn't say anything.
After Xi Ning finished writing, Lin An took out a bronze sparrow specially used to deliver letters from the storage bag, rolled up the letter paper and stuffed it into the belly of the bronze sparrow, set the estimated position and let the bronze sparrow fly out of the window.
The bronze sparrow quickly flew towards the direction of the head of the rcenary group and the others. Xi Ning wanted to take a look with the telescope, but was stopped by Lin An.
He firmly held Xi Ning in his arms, preventing him from looking out of the window, and said in a low voice, “The letter will be delivered smoothly, don't worry about it.”
On the way back with him, Xi Ning didn't even ntion going back to Cliff Valley Forest, but he cared about these people very much. Lin An was restless and worried that Xi Ning would want to leave him because of this.
He knew how the dwarf described him in front of others before. Xi Ning didn't hear much about him, and he didn't really understand his past. If everyone told Xi Ning that the person beside him was a demon, would he still be like this and not get afraid of him?
Lin An hid his gloomy emotions, picked up Xi Ning and walked downstairs, “Let's not think about this matter, are you hungry?”
Xi Ning obediently leaned on his shoulder, “A little bit.”
