He Has a Sickness that Needs to be Cured Chapter 261

After saying goodbye to the clan and leaving the Cliff Valley Forest, the mercenary group and His Majesty's subordinates were already waiting outside. As an elf with silver hair and green eyes, as soon as Xi Ning came out, all eyes were on him.

Most of the people present had never seen such creatures as elves. Even if they did, they were still amazed by Xi Ning's appearance. Xi Ning didn't care about their gazes, and after seeing His Majesty, he asked what he wanted to know the most, “Have you found the person in the portrait?”

His Majesty expressed his apology, “There is no news yet…… Don't worry, I have already instructed my people, as soon as they find that person with similar looks, they will bring him back to the palace immediately. When we come back, we will definitely hear some good news.”

His wife's illness could no longer drag on, and he had to retrieve the petals of the Red Frost Flower as soon as possible. Xi Ning couldn't hide his disappointment. After standing there for a while, he followed His Majesty's subordinates to his carriage.

Seeing that he was in a low mood, the system also advised, “Song Zhou will not be too far away from master in every world. He may be among the people or the mercenary group brought by His Majesty.”

“I hope so……” The carriage had already started advancing, His Majesty arranged for two people to stand outside the carriage to serve Xi Ning anytime. Xi Ning opened the window and looked outside. There were members of the mercenary group on horses, and one of them even whistled to Xi Ning and greeted him, “Hi! How are you……”

Xi Ning glanced around, there was no familiar face he recognized, he ignored the mercenary who greeted him, sat up straight and closed the window.

The Cliff Valley Forest was also a long way from the nearest town. The group set off at noon and stopped at the edge of the forest to rest after the sky darkened.

The carriages prepared by His Majesty were of course the best. Xi Ning rarely felt bumps on the road, and there was a lot of space inside; he could sleep directly in it at night.

After the carriage stopped, Xi Ning pushed open the door and got out of the carriage, and His Majesty's subordinates were already preparing dinner.

His Majesty personally came over to lead Xi Ning to the place temporarily set up for dinner. On the way, he apologized again, “Your Highness, I am sorry that you have to bear with me for now, I will arrange a better meal for you when we pass through the town tomorrow.”

He inquired about the living habits of the forest elves in advance. The elves seemed to be vegetarian and liked light flavors. His Majesty ordered his subordinates to specially make food that suited Xi Ning's taste.

Xi Ning smiled at him. “I don't mind at all.”

When the two of them came to the shed that had been set up, several tables were already filled with people. Most of them were people in the mercenary group with higher position, guards who came to eat in turn, and also a dwarf.

When the dwarf saw Xi Ning, he couldn't help but come over to greet him. “I heard that you are the Highness of those elves? Sure enough, you have a more flexible thinking than ordinary elves. The forest elf that I knew before, he refused to step out of the woods even if he died……”

He was very friendly with him and already started talking a lot before Xi Ning could say a word. Xi Ning sat down at the table, silently waited for him to finish, and replied, “Yes.”

The dwarf was stunned for a moment before he remembered what he asked at the beginning. He ran back to his original table to get his tableware and chopsticks and sat here with Xi Ning. His Majesty did not stop him.

Although there were several other races in the mercenary group, the dwarves were not familiar with them. He felt isolated from the mercenary group and His Majesty, only him and Xi Ning who came alone could be companions for each other.

“By the way, Your Highness, do you know that there are hidden secrets in the forest we are going to?”

The dwarf winked at Xi Ning mysteriously, peeled a peanut and put it in his mouth.

His Majesty had already heard the dwarf mention this before, so he got up and ordered his subordinates to serve the dishes quickly. Xi Ning turned his head and asked, “What secret?”

The hair ornament on his forehead swayed slightly with his movement, the dwarf's eyes followed the dark green gemstone inlaid on the hair ornament and was distracted by it for a moment. He quickly returned to his senses and continued, “I heard it from a rumor that there was a very evil magician that used to live in that forest. He built a tower deep in the woods……”

There are members of the mercenary group sitting at the table next to them. A person came over to serve the food with his head lowered, Xi Ning raised his eyes and took a glance at him.

The person turned his face to Xi Ning's direction. He wore a wide hood, only showing a small portion of his face. He was wearing the clothes of a mercenary group, and by the looks of his clothes he seemed to be a slave. Xi Ning felt that his face looked similar to Song Zhou.

The dwarf was still talking. After the person finished serving the food, he turned around and walked out. Xi Ning immediately got up and chased after him.

“Wait a minute……” Xi Ning shouted, and many people heard his voice and looked towards him. He took a few steps to grab the person's hand and walk in front of him.

After seeing the face of the person in front of him, Xi Ning's eyes were wide open, followed by the surprise and distress feeling of finally finding the person.

He did look exactly the same as Song Zhou, but the other half of his face was as spooky as a ghost, covered with bruises and black patches. The person pulled back his arms, pulled his hood to cover his face, lowered his head and walked around Xi Ning and left.
