Chapter 478 The old man and Henry
In the master bedroom in the castle, a strange smell filled the room where the sun was invisible.
On the big gold-clad bed, an old man with a blue-white face and a gorgeous robe lay on it, covered with a gorgeous velvet quilt.
From time to time, heart-wrenching coughs came.
It took a while before it sootheed, and then there was a depressing silence.
I don’t know how long it took, an old and weak voice suddenly came from the bed.
"Henry, have you found the prince?"
These words are majestic and expectant.
"Your Majesty, there is no. I have searched all over the country, but I have not found any signs of a prince." A tall middle-aged man with a bitter face stood beside the bed, wearing the clothes of a guard, covering his heart, his voice was low and uncontrollable pain, and said.
"Cough cough cough..." The old man on the bed couldn't help coughing in pain after hearing this.
Guard Henry walked forward with the medicine paste, but was stopped by the old man and had to retreat back and stand straight in place.
After a while, the old man's coughing sound gradually became lower.
"Henry, I don't have much time!" The old man's thin and old man's arms were covered with spots and his eyes became bright. He looked at the loyal guard beside him and said.
"Your Majesty, have you asked the church for help..." Henry asked.
"Hehe... cough cough... huh... cough cough... the help of the church? The holy light is flawless, so the church is the shadow of the holy light!" The old man said as he would be dragged by the church outside, accompanied by a violent cough, and said with a sneer.
Henry stood silently.
After pausing for a while, the old man took a rest before he recovered, his tone became calmer, and said.
"Henry, I know my own situation! You must quickly find the prince back. The enemy will not let us live too smoothly." After saying this, the old man was so tired that he was breathing.
"Your Majesty, you should have a good rest!" Henry said with heartache.
"After I die, I can have a good rest, but now it won't work. Henry, I must hold on until he comes back!" the old man gritted his teeth and said firmly.
Henry's heart became even more painful. He knelt down on one knee, and said with a firm face, "Your Majesty, let go. No matter what the price you pay, I will definitely find the prince, even if you make a deal with the devil and betray my soul!"
"Go..." The old man closed his eyes and waved his hands weakly.
Henry then stepped back respectfully, left the room, and closed the door softly.
At the gate, Henry covered his chest and his forehead was filled with cold sweat, "Your Highness, where are you? Your faithful servant is missing you!"
"May the Holy Light shine on you, may the Holy Light guide me in the direction!"
Henry's face wrinkled, covering the palm of his chest, exerting even harder.

Every time when he arrives in the fairy tale world, William always feels a sense of misfortune in time.
Especially this time, he stayed in the real world for several years before traveling through time again.
This sense of misunderstanding not only did not ease with his strength, but instead became stronger and stronger.
The time that was relatively stagnant between the two worlds was a long time ago for him, and for the fairy tale world, everything had just begun.
The Kingdom of Isaac, where William left the last time, was located in the northwest of the central and northwest of the fairy tale world.
This time, the Shilun Hourglass took him directly to the small principality of Salz, which is northeastern southwest of the mainland.
The Principality of Salz is a mountainous country. Sixty-three percent of the territory of the country is covered with forests, and only more than 30 percent of the area belongs to plains or arable hilly areas. Most of the population also gathers in this area.
Salzburg is the capital of the country, the center of power and administration, and the direct territory of the Hasma family.
The territory of the Principality of Salz was surrounded by several kingdoms and was airtight on all sides, and belonged to a completely landlocked country.
Several kingdoms were determined to annex the Principality of Salz and expand their own power, so the international situation of the Principality of Salz has always been bad, which can be said to be in a difficult situation. Fortunately, the patriarch of the Hasma family, the grand duke of the Principality of Salz, Hasma XI, was a cunning guy who was scheming, cunning and good at dancing. Only then could he barely preserve the Principality of Salz and not annexed.
The Principality of Salz has few plains, many mountainous areas, and few places suitable for farming, so more people have to make a living in other ways.
Craftsmanship and business have also emerged.
To this day, especially after Hasma XI came to power, many "emphasized business" policies were issued. The Principality of Salz has transformed into a commercial country. In the aristocratic circle of mainland China, Hasma is sometimes said to be a merchant grand duke. Salzburg has also become a famous city of craftsmanship and business in the mainland, as famous as the music capital of Bremen.
While listening to the information collected by the Magic Mirror, William followed the crowd into Salzburg.
Compared with the capital of the Kingdom of Isaac, Salzburg is one-third smaller in area, but the flow of people is quite large.
There are craft workshops everywhere, and the owner is hiking his throat and recruiting craft apprentices.
From time to time, there are hawkers who are shouting and selling all kinds of food or gadgets.
This atmosphere is much warmer than many cities William saw on the mainland. It feels like returning to his previous life, strolling on the commercial street, eating skewers, and listening to the explosive music coming from somewhere.
William was a little crazy for a moment, and walked along the streets and alleys of the city as the crowd drifted with the flow.
Until evening.
The sun sets.
Salzburg is shrouded in shady curtains.
The crowds on the streets also became so sparse that there was no one.
William's figure suddenly appeared at the highest point of the city, in the Hasma family castle, above the spire of a bell tower.
The wind blew the cloak of Ruyi behind William's back and made a rustling sound.
William looked calmly at the city with scattered lights under the night sky, with stars above his head and a bright moon.
The hourglass of the time wheel will not bring him to this place for no reason unless it thinks that this place has the treasure that William wants or has a deep relationship with the treasure.
He has been in this country for a few days and has even learned the language of this country, but he has found no clues.
In desperation, he had to come here.
In most fairy tales, there are princesses or princes, or both.
If this country has so-called treasures, it must be in the capital.
