Chapter 65 Punishment
"I asked a doctor from the Citadel named Marwyn about the secrets of the human body and the Common Tongue of Westeros."
Mi Li opened her mouth to explain why she appeared on this ship.
Then, when he was talking, the conversation turned slightly, and the last sentence was spoken in the common language of Westeros.
The guard standing next to him listened to the two people chattering for a long time, and finally understood such a sentence, but he was still at a loss.
And Mirri said something after saying this, and this time even Viserys couldn't understand it, because she didn't speak Valyrian.
"We Lazarins have our own language."
This time, Mi Li's voice was uncharacteristically calm.
"We love to sing, respect nature, and the tribe lives by herding, so the deity we believe in is the supreme shepherd."
"However in the Dothraki we are called 'Hesilaki', which means 'sheep man'."
Mirri Maz Duur was a Lazarin, and the fate of the Lazarins was not very good, they were too far from happiness, and too close to the Dothraki and Slaver's Bay.
The Dothraki often travel south to destroy the Lazarin colonies, taking their cattle, sheep, and wives.
Most of the captured Lazarin middle-aged men were trafficked to Meereen and other places to become slaves, and the useless old men were directly killed.
However, Viserys had no time to care about the tragic fate of the Lazarin. He was not a god who couldn't handle so many worldly sufferings, and at the same time, he would not be led astray by this woman's topic.
"I understand."
Viserys nodded, then brought the subject back on.
"Then you continue to talk about the magic tide."
He pays more attention to the magic tide thing that women say.
And Mi Li sighed slightly when she saw that she didn't succeed in diverting the boy's attention. If it was another child, maybe she told some interesting stories to divert their attention.
However, the boy in front of him was obviously not an ordinary person, Mi Li sorted out her language and spoke again.
"This lord."
"Magic has actually been interrupted several times in history, with apparently long gaps."
"And now it's been a long time since the last dragon disappeared."
"No one knows when magic will come back to life."
"Including wizards, moonsingers, and priests have all lost their power and become ordinary people."
"They linger on and endure the humiliation, hoping that one day there will be a change."
"Is it?"
Hearing this woman's words, Viserys fell into silence.
And Mi Li couldn't help rolling her eyes when she saw Viserys' face, and spoke again.
"Of course, I actually don't mean to approach you on purpose."
"I'm just a little curious about why you were able to revive the magic."
Viserys was interrupted by the woman's sophistry, frowned slightly, then raised his head.
He actually didn't care what the woman wanted to do to him just now. Originally, Viserys wanted to cut off her hand as punishment for the sake of her raising a baby, but he didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to join in. came up.
"I don't know what the Lazarin laws are, you know, if in Westeros you'll have nothing but death and..."
Viserys frowned but stopped halfway through, because women are not qualified to wear black.
If she's in Westeros, it's a dead end.
"According to the law, this lord, I actually did nothing."
When it came to the law, Mi Li suddenly stopped panicking.
"I trust you will do justice, a bundle of rope and a dagger mean nothing."
Viserys raised his brows slightly. The woman had a point. After all, she was caught before she could do anything.
Even if it is just a crime that has not been executed in the previous life, these seemingly important "iron proofs" are not enough to determine her guilt.
After all, if you think about it without committing a crime, there would be no one in this world if you could even commit a crime in your fantasy.
"You are right."
"But I don't need any reason to throw you into the sea to feed the fish."
And Viserys folded his arms around his chest and spoke calmly.
"Give me a reason to keep you alive."
And Mi Li saw the boy's calm and indifferent cheeks and throat rolled slightly. It seemed that if she didn't say anything, she might be thrown into the sea by Viserys to feed the fish.
"My lord, my lord... I find that you don't know much about magic. I wonder if you need a magic advisor."
"I can help you better master this power, and I'll just get what I deserve in return."
And this woman came up with a bold idea in order to survive.
However, Viserys glanced at her, he really needed the magical knowledge of this woman, and the other party also understood his meaning directly.
In fact, although Viserys needs the magical knowledge of this woman, he also has a hard time trusting this cunning and strange woman by his side.
"Yes, Ms. Miree Maz Duur, but it will depend on your performance to be rewarded."
Viserys said calmly.
"But... I'm a person with clear rewards and punishments."
"I'm going to believe it's just an idea, you haven't started committing crimes."
"But even a sinful thought has a corresponding price. Next, you will have a year with the shackles."

As Viserys' voice fell, a soldier stepped forward and put chains on the woman's hands and feet.
She will live in heavy chains for the next year, and this is Viserys' punishment for her.
But that's the only way Viserys can take this mysterious woman who understands magic with him.
"Thank you for your forgiveness."
The woman then fell to her knees and thanked Viserys for not throwing her into the sea.
The boy with dyed blue hair stretched out his hand and took the initiative to pull up the woman who was still sitting on the ground wearing the shackles.
Then another guard who had taken Miri's child came back and gave the child back to her.
The child was still crying non-stop, and the woman with shackled hands and feet hurriedly hugged her own flesh and blood.
Then he shook it a few times, and hummed an incomprehensible melody in his mouth.
It's amazing that the child quickly calmed down in his mother's arms, neither crying nor making trouble.
He stared at Viserys with wide eyes and a smile on his face.
The dancer even wanted Viserys to hug him.
