Chapter 2955 Julie

Just next to the Black Tea Forest, there stands a tall castle with black walls and black tiles. The castle was extremely well guarded, with not only walls but a moat.

The only gate connecting the interior of the castle can only be accessed after falling off the bridge.

And here is the castle of Earl Black Tea.

At this moment, in the southwest of the castle, on the edge of the Black Forest, two little heads emerged from behind a tall pile of thatch.

 One is Angel and the other is Rabbit Chacha.

“Hey, there seems to be a puppet with boots on its head over there?” Angel’s eyes were fixed on the strange puppet outside the moat. This puppet had a black eye patch and high boots on its head. At first glance, it looks a bit like a scarecrow, with only one leg and jumping around patrolling outside the moat.

“Don’t look at it! It is the puppet guard under Earl Black Tea. As long as you look at it for a long time, it will find your traces.” Rabbit Chacha whispered.

 “So spiritually sensitive?” Angel whispered.

 Rabbi Rabbit Chacha: "It's not spiritual sense, it's the ability given to it by Earl Black Tea. Its abilities are counter-reconnaissance and the eyes of death."

Angor can still understand counter-reconnaissance. But looking into the eyes of death, what kind of ability is this?

Rabbi Chacha explained in a low voice: "Everything seen by its eyes, whether it is humans, me, or other living things, will die directly. This is the ability of the eyes of death."

 “Die directly? No exception?” Angel asked with a frown.

 Rabbi Rabbit Chacha: "There are exceptions. As long as your life energy is higher than it, you can be exempted from the death eyes. But..."

Rabbi Chacha looked Angel up and down and said softly: "You can't do it. Your life energy is more erratic than ordinary people. If you are caught by it, you will definitely die."

Angor is not a real person who has entered a strange sign. He has no entity but only spirituality. His life energy is indeed very low. Once he is really targeted by the puppet guards, he will definitely die.

 As for whether saying that this place is dead will affect reality...that's for sure.

Are there not many alchemists who were trapped and died in the omen? Even the mysterious alchemist Frost once followed was trapped in the strange omen, let alone Angel.

 So, Angel originally wanted to observe openly, but now he immediately followed his heart.

However, just when Angel lowered his head to stop looking at the puppet man, the other party seemed to have noticed something, and he turned his head and pointed it at the thatch pile.

 “Oops!” Angel quickly wanted to lie down, but Rabbit Chacha held him back.

“Don’t lie down. If you lie down, it will attract its attention.” Rabbit Chacha whispered.

Angor had a look of anxiety on his face: "But if we don't lie down, our hats will be seen by it."

Angor wears a teacup hat on his head, and Rabbit Chacha wears an extremely colorful teapot hat. Anyone who is a human will notice something is wrong.

 Rabbi Rabbit Chacha: "It's okay if you see a hat. Isn't it normal to have teacups and teapots on the thatch pile?"

Angor: "Huh?"

Even though Angor had no idea what the rabbit Chacha was talking about, he still followed its words and stopped.

The puppet guard glanced at the thatch, then at the tea cups and teapots on the thatch pile. Without any expression, he jumped up and down to inspect other places.

 Hearing the footsteps of the puppet guards leaving, Angel's face was full of disbelief.

The other party really didn’t notice them?

 There is such a gorgeous teapot on the thatch pile, are you blind?

Facing Angel's incredulous expression, Rabbit Chacha tugged on his clothes: "This is not the human world, this is the teapot country. It's normal for teapots and teacups to appear anywhere. If you don't believe it, look into the moat. .”

Angor looked in the direction of Rabbit Chacha's fingers and saw two fish emerging from the water in the moat, and they looked like...two teapots.

"These are teapot piranhas, don't underestimate them. They were specially raised by Earl Black Tea in the moat. They are very dangerous and ferocious!"

Even though the rabbit Chacha said so, Angel really didn’t see the danger in them, but it was better to listen to Chacha.

This country feels too absurd and unruly. The puppet guards all have the unreasonable ability to look straight into the eyes of death. It is just like the nightmare world... Hey, could this be the nightmare world?

Angor shook his head to get rid of the chaotic thoughts. Even if it was really the nightmare world, he was not Sawa now, but a mortal without any ability.

If you want to save your life, it’s better to follow Chacha. After all, Angel spent many years of shame and humiliation in front of Rabbit Chacha to gain sympathy. In the end, he contributed several fairy tales to invite Rabbit Chacha out of the mountain.

 Having sacrificed so much, he naturally had to follow the devil Chacha to win.

Yes, the reason why Angel and Rabbit Chacha appeared near the Earl of Black Tea's castle this time was precisely because of Angel's misfortune and acting.

Angor had a hunch when he learned that Earl Black Tea had obtained the "mirror". This mirror might be the source of this strange omen.

 But if you want to find this mirror, you must enter the castle of Earl Black Tea, and you will also take great risks.

So, Angel focused on the rabbit Chacha.

 According to Chacha himself, he once secretly went to the collection of Earl Black Tea just to find a beautiful hat.

Although I don’t know whether Chacha was bragging or a real experience, after hearing this, Angel had the idea of ​​helping Chacha on his back.

 He saw that Chacha seemed to have some kind of "good impression" of him, so he began to put aside his shame and act miserably.

 This alone is not enough.

After Angel learned that Chacha wanted some bedtime stories, he racked his brains to think of a few fairy tales, which made Chacha happy, and then invited him out of the mountain.

So, they have their companions this time.

 …

According to Chacha, their first task is to sneak into the Black Tea Castle.

With the tight security of Black Tea Castle, it is not easy to sneak in. At present, Chacha has thought of the safest way, which is to seek help from his friend Julie.

 Julie is the mount of Earl Black Tea. However, it is one of the mounts.

Earl Black Tea has a total of three mounts, corresponding to three horses, a pure white Pegasus, a black war horse, and a brown mane horse that is not very eye-catching.

The brown-maned horse among them is Julie.

According to Rabbit Chacha, Earl Black Tea prefers Pegasus and war horses, but the one he usually uses the most is Julie, the brown horse.

 The reason is that brown horses are more friendly to the people.

In order to create a people-friendly image for the people in the territory, Earl Black Tea always chooses a brown horse with no distinctive features every time he travels.

I don’t care whether it had any effect, but Julie was so lucky that she stood out from countless brown horses and became one of the three mounts of the Black Earl.

Moreover, compared to the well-fed Pegasus and war horses, the brown horse Julie has more free space. It can be graze freely outside the castle, and can also enter the castle stables to rest.

This kind of freedom is also where Earl Black Tea shows his closeness to the people, but it also gives them the opportunity to sneak into the Earl's castle.

"We'll walk around the outside of the castle later. If we meet Julie, I can take you into the castle today. But if Julie doesn't eat grass outside the castle today, we can only wait for the next opportunity." Rabbit Chacha whispered.

Angor nodded, with an expression like "Cha Cha, the devil, you have the final say."

 Next, they began to move slowly through the grass, looking for Julie.

 During this process, Angel also asked a question in his heart: "Is Julie reliable?"

 Rabbi Chacha: "Don't worry, he was once a guide like me, and he was friendly towards humans."

 “The guide?”

 Rabbi Rabbit Chacha: "It is to guide people who accidentally come to the Teapot Kingdom. This is an organization set up by the human husband of the previous queen, and those who can become guides are moderates."

 At this point, Rabbit Chacha sighed: "However, with the birth of the new emperor, this institution was also abolished. Those of us who were the guides were also scattered everywhere."

“By the way, Julie can stand out from countless brown horses because of her gentle character and can more easily capture the hearts of the people in the territory of Earl Black Tea... However, she cannot capture the heart of Earl Black Tea.”

After Angel heard the identity of the guide, he once again remembered the story "Louis' Hat" told by Feng.

Louis entered the Teapot Kingdom to rescue his wife, and the person who helped him was a guide. Moreover, in the description of the story, the guide is a rabbit named...Chacha.

Later, in order to help Luigi, Chacha also dedicated his life. Luigi made a hat with Chacha's fur.

 This hat is the most important prop in the story: Louis’ hat.

 It is also the origin of the Mad Hatter.

The rabbit creature that Angel accidentally created in Princess Town was named "ChaCha" because of this story.

Angor was silent for a moment: "Since you were once a guide, do you know a person named Louis?"

Rabbi Chacha recalled it for a moment and shook her head: "I haven't heard of it."

Angor breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay if you haven't heard of it, it's okay if you haven't heard of it..."

 Rabbi Rabbit Chacha asked suspiciously: "Who is he?" Why did Angel mention this name specifically?

Angor: "You don't have to worry about who he is. Anyway...just stay away from him when you encounter him."

ChaCha, the rabbit, didn't know why and was about to continue asking, but at this moment, he caught a glimpse of brown from the corner of his eye.

 “Found it, it’s Julie!”

Angor was originally thinking about how to explain the person "Louis", but the appearance of Julie saved him some time.

Angor followed Chacha’s guidance and looked. I saw a big horse with a brown mane wagging its tail and grazing on the rich grass.

 “Is this Julie?”

 Rabbi Rabbit Chacha nodded: "Yes, let's go find it."

Is it really Julie? Angel thought that Julie would be like the rabbit Chacha, who knew how to dress up, but it turned out that she looked like a very ordinary horse.

Rabbi Chacha saw Angel not following for a long time and thought he was still worried, so he comforted him: "Don't worry, Julie can distinguish between good thoughts and evil thoughts. As long as you have good thoughts in your heart, it won't do anything to you."

Of course, if Angel has malicious intentions, let alone Julie, maybe Rabbit Chacha will abandon him at this time.

Angor is not afraid of being identified. His coming here is an accident, and there is definitely no malice. If he has kind thoughts, as long as he can help him escape from the strange omen, even the Earl of Black Tea will show his kind thoughts.

Angor thought of this and followed quickly...

 …

 Is Julie friendly?

If the crows in the Black Tea Forest are any standard, Julie is too friendly. But if Rabbit Chacha is used as the standard, it's completely different.

 Julie looked at Angel with scrutiny and suspicion.

Angor even felt that Julie might have seen evil thoughts in him?

 After Angel was stared at for a full three minutes, Julie turned her head to talk to Rabbit Chacha.

From Julie’s words, we can know that it does not see any evil intentions in Angel. He has good intentions but still has human cunning. Julie advised Rabbit Chacha to be cautious when helping.

However, Rabbit Chacha waved his hand: "I know he must have some little thoughts in his heart, but I also know that he will not harm me."

 Julie asked why.

Rabbi Rabbit Chacha couldn't tell, he just muttered, it was an intuition.

 Julie whispered: "Intuition is unreliable."

 Then, Julie looked at Angel and said in a softer voice: "...human beings are also unreliable."

Angor didn’t know whether Rabbit Chacha heard Julie’s muttering to herself, but he heard it.

Julie's current attitude, although not as bad as that of the crows, is different from what Rabbit Chacha said about being "friendly to humans". Angel did not see it.

Moreover, from Julie’s mouth, Angel heard that it actually didn’t trust humans.

The only good thing is that although Julie and Rabbit Chacha said slightly different things, Julie did not refuse Chacha’s request, but said seriously:

“I can take you into the castle, but I can only take you to the castle stables. I can’t help with the rest.”

Julie is just a horse after all. She can graze freely outside the castle, but inside the castle, she can only stay in the stables.

Think about it, if a horse is wandering around in the castle hall, there is obviously something wrong.

Furthermore, not to mention Julie, even the Pegasus and war horses that Earl Black Tea values ​​the most, stay in the stables on weekdays, but their stables are deep in the castle and are more luxurious.

"No problem!" Rabbit Chacha nodded: "Just leave the rest to me. I know the inside of the castle very well!"

 This is not the first time Chacha has sneaked into the castle, and Julie also knows this.

However, even so, sneaking into the castle is still very dangerous. Chacha was fine alone, but now it brought a human in, which made Julie confused. After all, human beings are always surprised when faced with unknown things, especially a castle full of traps. It is very possible to fall into a trap accidentally.

Chacha doesn’t need to worry if she travels alone, but if she brings a human with her, the probability of being discovered increases a lot.

From Julie's point of view, Chacha is looking for trouble.

However, after all, Chacha is her good friend, and Julie also knows that it is difficult to persuade Chacha, so she can only let it go.

"Since you are going in, prepare yourself first... I will return to the castle when the sky is dyed red."
