Chapter 556: Prince Liszt's Perseverance(1/2)
Prince Liszt sat in place with the feathers of the Sphinx.
Most of the day has passed and dusk has come.
Surrounded by desolate woods.
Underneath his feet is a meadow covered with mud and sand.
For such a long time, Prince Liszt had not even met a single person.
There are no people, so where to go to find the most gorgeous carpet.
Do you use grass to weave a carpet? Are you giving your two brothers an excuse to attack yourself again?
Sure enough, am I the one who was abandoned? Sure enough, am I still not favored by my father?
Prince Liszt fell into deep suspicion, his eyes full of confusion.
A steady sound of footsteps came from far and near.
Prince Liszt suddenly found himself shrouded in the shadows. With a little panic, he suddenly raised his head, and there was a tall man in front of him.
His face was covered by darkness, and Prince Liszt couldn't see his appearance clearly for a moment, only his deep black eyes.
"Young man, you are the new sun and the light of hope for the future. Why are you confused here?" The man's voice was a little magnetic, and it sounded particularly moving.
Prince Liszt suddenly became a little fascinated by the voice. After a moment of silence, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying, "Even if he is a king, as long as he is a human, he will have troubles."
"Haha, you're right." The tall man was stunned for a moment, then smiled, half-squatted down, and said to Prince Liszt, "Young man, can you tell me about your troubles? Maybe I can give you some advice."
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Hansel. I am a wandering ranger who is finding something meaningful for my life." The tall man said.
"Hansel?" Prince Liszt then saw clearly the tall man's appearance. His ordinary appearance was his most attractive one.
"Yes." The tall man said with a smile.
"Oh, my name is Li...Cha!" Prince Liszt was about to say his name when he suddenly remembered something, paused for a moment, and said in a stiff tone. As long as he was a normal person, he could see something was wrong.
The tall man Hansel seemed not to notice this, and the smile on his face became even brighter and he stretched out his palm to Liszt.
Prince Liszt naturally stretched out his palms, and the two of them were connected together, and Hansel easily pulled Prince Liszt from the ground.
"Tell me, Richard, is there anything unhappy? Maybe I can give some help so that I will not be so bored during my wandering days!" Hansel said enthusiastically again.
"Actually, it's not a very important thing..." Prince Liszt was a little hesitant, but looked up at Hansel with a sincere smile, pursed his lips and thought for a while, and said, "My father asked us to find a carpet for him. Whoever found the best carpet will get the reward from his father!"
"Each person has one direction, my two brothers are already on the road." Prince Liszt said in a low tone.
"Oh, are you worried? Worrying that your two brothers will find a better carpet, right?" Hansel asked in confusion.
"No, it's not like this! As long as it is fair and just, I can accept the results. No matter who finds the best carpet in the end," Prince Liszt quickly defended.
"Oh, why?" Hansel was surprised. "Since that's the case, you should also set out on the road to find carpets for your father! Isn't it enough? Haha, I don't have much money, but I can support you a little bit, of course the amount will not be much. If you have money in the future, remember to pay it back to me."
Hansel's calmness and generosity made him feel more favorable to Prince Liszt's heart.
He is such a person himself, and he also likes to deal with such people. However, he has seen very few such people in the past ten years.
"Thank you for your kindness, Hansel. This is not the thing that bothers me." Prince Liszt shook his head and said.
"Oh." Hansel looked at Liszt Liszt with his brows.
Little Prince Liszt did not hide it and said, "My two brothers have their own directions, but I... my area is in this place, and the area my father chose for me is nearby."
"There are only beasts and weeds nearby. Where do you ask me to find a gorgeous and comfortable carpet for him?" Prince Liszt said with some self-deprecating self-deprecating, "I was wondering, did I do something wrong? So even the Lord of the Holy Light was punishing me and decided this area for me!"
Hansel was silent. From his perspective, the look of despair in Prince Liszt's eyes could be clearly seen.
After a while, he said to Prince Liszt in a solemn tone, "Richa, do you believe in the great Lord of the Holy Light?"
"Of course, the people of the entire Svak Kingdom are devout believers of the Lord of the Holy Light. I will no exception. Don't say such ungodly words." Prince Liszt was stunned at first, and then said dissatisfied.
"Of course I know that what I am standing in front of me is a true believer. However, he must have not heard what the priest said." Hansel smiled slightly, and said without anger.
"What do you mean?" Prince Liszt asked.
"That's what the priest in my hometown said to me - if you ask the Lord of the Holy Light, it means you believe in the power of the Lord. If the Lord of the Holy Light does not help you, it means that the Lord of the Holy Light believes in your power."
"Richard, what do you think?"
When Prince Liszt heard this, he was excited all over his body - the Lord of the Holy Light did not help you, the Lord of the Holy Light believed in your abilities.
In this conservative theocracy society, no one has ever said such a thing.
In this case, the lethality of a devout believer of the Lord of the Holy Light will be too great.
Little Prince Liszt was excited and kept saying, "The great Lord of the Holy Light is watching me. He believes in my power. He believes in my power! I cannot let Him down!"
After a long time, Prince Liszt calmed down and no longer looked decadent in his eyes. He said to Hansel gratefully, "Thank you, my friend - from now on, you will be my friend. Your words have guided me!"
"There should not be any hiding from friends. Actually, my name is not Richard. My real name is Liszt. I am the third son of His Majesty King Philip of the Svak Kingdom."
"Oh, Prince Liszt, please forgive my rudeness!" Hansel opened his mouth, his eyes full of surprise, and he was about to kneel down and salute to Liszt.
Little Prince Liszt quickly grabbed Hansel's hands and prevented him from kneeling down. He shook his head firmly and said, "Hansel, you are my true friend, and there is no need to define our relationship with worldly etiquette."
"This...ah, it's my honor, Your Highness, Prince! I think this story can make me sit by the fireplace at home when I'm old and weak and can no longer walk, and tell my descendants!" Hansel quickly regained his natural look, and after a cheerful smile, he said to Prince Lister.
"Of course you can! Hansel, this is your freedom! But before that, I need your help, in the name of a friend!" Little Prince Liszt nodded and said, "Where is the stupid thing he said before, the royal nobles said?
"I'm willing to serve you, my friend!" Hansel smiled.
"That's great!" Little Prince Liszt fisted and his palms and said excitedly, "Then we're going to start working, Hansel!"
"Your Highness, what are your arrangements?" Hansel asked.
"My father, His Majesty King Philip, the range he has designated for me is here, use this feather." Little Prince Liszt took out the feather of the human-faced sphinx from his pocket and shook it in front of Hansel.
What the little prince didn't notice was that Hansel's eyes moved slightly and returned to normal.
"Since the Lord of the Holy Light has arranged me here, then there is His intention! Maybe here..." Little Prince Liszt looked around, "Where is a gorgeous carpet hidden near here? It may be that the passing caravan fell accidentally, or that the robbers hid their treasure here!"
When Prince Liszt said this, he seemed particularly confident.
Hansel's mouth twitched, and you're happy.
"So, Hansel, let's take action, look around and see what you've gained?" said Little Prince Liszt.
"Now?" Hansel glanced at the gradually darkening environment and said.
"Yes." Little Prince Liszt replied seriously, and as he said, he walked towards an old tree with a hole in the tree.
Hansel showed helplessness on his face, and had no choice but to do what Prince Liszt told him.
The two of them were busy for a long time and even "digged three feet into the ground", making their faces covered in dust, but they still found nothing.
The wild wolf's shrill howl came from the depths of the forest.
The wind blew rustling.
No matter how "indifferent" Prince Liszt knew that he could not continue, he said to William embarrassedly, "Hansel, sorry, my friend! Let's go back and rest first."
Hansel looked tired at this moment, and he showed joy in his eyes when he heard this, "That's great!"
"You don't have a place to live, Hansel?" asked the little prince Liszt.
"The Royal Capital Hotel is too expensive. I planned to find a tree and just lie on it and sleep for one night!" Hansel said embarrassedly.
"Haha, my friend, you will sleep in the comfortable bed and the burning fireplace to keep you warm." Little Prince Liszt smiled, "Of course, there is food!"
"Thank you, Your Highness, Prince!" Hansel suddenly felt energetic.
"You're welcome. Eating is to have strength tomorrow. Continue to look for carpets. I have thought that if you don't find a carpet, we will weave one. If there is no material, we will weave it with weeds. No matter how bad it is, it will be better than not!" Prince Liszt said.
He actually didn't have any ideas about the throne.
Because he felt that only by sitting in that position could he have greater power to promote what he wanted to do.
"..." Hansel's smile suddenly became a little bitter.
"Come on, Hansel, the Holy Light is watching us!" Little Prince Liszt said in a light tone.
Hansel suddenly regretted what he said.

late at night.
The bedroom of the old king Philip.
The old king was listening to his confidant's report.
"The eldest Prince Charles and the second Prince Ferret are moving in the direction guided by the feathers, still looking for the carpet you let them look for."
The old king Philip nodded. Although he said that his sons would rely on his personal wisdom and strength and not be allowed to take entourages to get the best carpet, as a father and king, how could he ignore the safety of his children? How could he not pay attention to their itinerary?
"Where is Liszt? Has he given up?" After a while of silence, the old king Philip remembered his youngest son and asked immediately.
"This... His Highness Little Prince Liszt did not give up. Today... convinced an adventurer who happened to pass by..." said his confidant.
"Not bad!" The old king Philip showed appreciation in his eyes. For a superior, letting someone help him work is a necessary skill. Although this child has always been naive and always does something embarrassing.
"What else did you do?" asked the old King Philip.
"Dig the ground, and climb trees!" My confidant hesitated for a moment, and then said.
