Chapter 32 Defection?
Chapter 32 Defection?
Turning off the phone, Jiang Qingjiu thought about it, and then dialed Chu Xin'er, who had not been in touch for a long time.
The phone rang a lot, but in the end no one answered, Jiang Qingjiu took a deep breath and hung up the phone.
It just so happened that Paul entered the house at this time, he looked at Jiang Qingjiu, and asked curiously, "Called?"
Jiang Sake nodded.
"How's Rosie?"
Paul shook his head, as if the situation was not very good, "Don't mention it, if it weren't for the spell, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago." The medical skills of several doctors here are relatively top-notch, and they said that a situation like Rossi's will be difficult to deal with, and even if he is sent to the most famous hospital, he will still come to the same conclusion as them. ”
"No help?" Jiang Qingjiu couldn't believe it, and there was one less of the four people when he traveled like this.
"Not really," Paul continued, "they said that such a disease would require long-term treatment and that it would not be easy to travel, and suggested that we should keep him. ”
That's fine. Jiang Qingjiu was already prepared in his heart, so he didn't feel anything.
Paul seems to be a little decadent, he has just set off, and he hasn't even gone to the sea yet, and he will lose two people at once, which is really unacceptable.
"Mr. Sake, I think that the one who died before the teacher was able to leave the teacher is what is happening now. Paul said suddenly.
Jiang Qingjiu was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that Baoer also knew Huaxia's famous words, nodded and said in a deep voice: "It's almost, you can understand it like this." ”
Paul waved his hand, and finally said, "Let's wait for news from Wizard Motuo, I'm too sleepy, let's rest first." ”
When he had finished speaking, he walked towards his room.
Looking at his back, Jiang Qingjiu took a deep breath, although the contact with these people was not very long, but presumably Cross's death and Rosie's situation must have deeply affected Paul, and he was still able to talk freely, which was also difficult for him.
Just as Jiang Sake was about to turn around and go back to his house, he suddenly felt a strange movement behind him.
Jiang Qingjiu subconsciously raised his vigilance, and suddenly the aura that made people passively vigilant dissipated, and a somewhat old voice came from behind him.
"Mr. Sake, my master is invited. ”
It was the old man at the door, and I saw him hunched over, waiting for Jiang Qingjiu's reply.
"Got it. ”
Hearing Jiang Qingjiu's reply, the old man stood up straight, kept a gentle smile all the time, and silently led the way in front.
I have to say that Jiang Sake still underestimated the size of this manor, and when this person who seemed to be a housekeeper took him and began to walk around the house, he realized how big this place was, how rich the person named Pace Cavendi was, and any item in it could be worth at least seven figures.
The old man seemed to be unable to see any of this, or he didn't care at all, and he didn't even look at it.
I remember that many years ago, someone told me that there were several major families in the imperial capital, and these families were not as famous as those who were in the mix, but they were really able to influence the existence of the empire. Even if history evolves, dynasties change, and those former glories no longer exist, they are still people at the top of the circle, just like the Cavendish family.
At that time, I didn't believe that there was such a strong family, but I had to believe that maybe everything that happened after the death of the big man in Huaxia was inextricably linked to these invisible families. Thinking of this, Jiang Sake sighed a little.
"Mr. Sake, it's here, it's just ahead. ”
The old man's voice came, but it interrupted Jiang Qingjiu's thinking, he had no choice but to nod and smile, and returned: "Got it, thank you." ”
The old man put his right hand on his chest, bowed slightly, and said, "No, you're polite." ”
I have to say that this red tape for foreigners does not have to be less Chinese.
Jiang Sake nodded and smiled, and pushed open the door.
After entering, the old man closed the door. What he saw in front of him made Jiang Qingjiu a little surprised, because this place, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a European aristocratic room, but like a study room in the feudal period of China, the four treasures of the study room lie quietly on the wooden writing table, a Taishi chair behind it, and a screen behind it.
On both sides hang some landscapes, Chinese paintings, etc., and the floor is cut from solid wood.
Pace Cavendi is standing in front of the writing table, holding a soft brush in one hand and a piece of rice paper in the other. I don't know why, but this picture always feels weird.
"Mr. Sake," Pace didn't stop his pen, "but I didn't expect you to arrive so soon." ”
"Mr. Pace, you're looking for me now, but what's the matter?" Ginger sake went straight to the point.
"I want to know something about Los Cavendi. ”
Pace spoke in a flat tone, as if he was saying something completely unrelated to him.
Looking at Pace on the writing table, Jiang Qingjiu thought repeatedly in his heart, whether the matter of Los Cavendi would affect his position, and Pace had already explained that he was seriously suppressed by the elders of the Cavendi family, in this case, would he defect, after all, he was still so young, and it was impossible to have children.
"Los Cavendi's family is dead, except for the blind girl who was taken away. ”
"Why was Los destroyed, have you ever wondered why? Pace raised his head, stopped the pen in his hand, looked at Jiang Qingjiu and smiled.
"Disobeying the will of the members of the Cavendish family?"
"You're right, Mr. Sake. Pace gave him an approving look, and then continued to write calligraphy.
According to the conversation just now, he should know the final ending of Los, just as Jiang Sake was thinking about why he came over to him, Pace spoke again,
"Mr. Sake, let me tell you two things that you must pay attention to. ”
"Speak, please. ”
Pace smiled and said, "First, don't trust anyone easily, and second, don't trust anyone easily. Do you know how I got to where I am now?"
Jiang Qingjiu smiled curiously: "How can you come, it wasn't passed on to you by your father?"
Pace's eyes changed suddenly, his face was gloomy, he laughed for a while, and then said, "Mr. Sake, I think you have seen the splendor of this manor." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Qingjiu nodded.
"Such a big estate. My father had more than 90 women and more than 20 children in his life, including seven boys. No matter how it is divided, no matter how it is inherited, it is impossible for me to inherit the whole of this estate in this life, but I was born into the Cavendi family. ”
Pace's expression began to grow a little excited.
"The previous brothers and sisters were all sent to the Cavendi family without exception, and in the end, I was the only one left, and the sudden death of my father made it logical for me to inherit the manor. Others hate the elders of the Cavendish family and exclude outside members, but I am not. ”
"That's all that has been said, I think you should understand it too. As you expected, I turned against you. Or rather, it was just a two-faced person. ”
Jiang Qingjiu frowned, I didn't expect this guy to be really a two-faced, and now I don't have to worry about anything else, Paul and Rosie, they are in a very dangerous situation now.
"You're worried about those two," Pace put away his brush and sneered, "The one named Rosie, I'm not too familiar with it, I've already had someone kill him, and as for Paul, we're old acquaintances, I won't, and I can't allow him to feel any pain before he dies." ”
"You're calm. Jiang Sake responded.
Pace picked up the piece of rice paper, and on it was written, the word "Mandate of Heaven".
"In the words of you Orientals, I am destiny, fate has made me the master of this manor, why should I rebel against the elders of the Cavendy family, without them, I would not be where I am today. ”
Jiang Qingshu asked, "You won't have any offspring?"
Pace said indifferently: "Then it has nothing to do with me, fate here." ”
Seeing Pace's attitude and that face, Jiang Qingjiu knew that he was hopeless, and immediately turned around to find Paul, and then rushed out from here.
"Who allowed you to go!"
Pace scolded, and seemed not to be afraid of the identity of the Oriental cultivator of Ginger Sake at all.
Jiang Qingjiu didn't look back, and returned indifferently: "I'm leaving, you can still keep me!"
"Don't do it yet, when will you watch this Oriental man go. Pace Cavendi exclaimed, a little annoyed.
At this time, the door that was closed suddenly opened, and the white-haired old man in a suit stared at Jiang Qingjiu with sharp eyes, and said with a hint of threat: "Sir, my master said, you can't go." ”
"Three clear spells. ”
Jiang Qingjiu took out the paper talisman prepared in advance from his pocket, sacrificed it, strode forward, hit it with one hand and two fingers on the talisman, injected a trace of aura, and bent his arm and pulled,
"If you don't stop, I'm going to do it. ”
Quark is a grandmaster-level brawler, and he has inherited some wizards' secret techniques, so it should be more than enough to deal with this oriental.
Seeing that Jiang Qingjiu didn't mean to stop, the old man stepped forward and punched out a domineering punch, if he faced his punch on weekdays, normal people would choose to avoid the edge for the time being.
"Broken. ”
I only heard Jiang Qingjiu scolding, and he directly greeted him with a thin piece of paper with two fingers.
He's crazy! Pace looked at Jiang Sake with an incredulous expression, isn't this looking for death!
The corners of the old man's mouth rose slightly, and he dared to fight head-on, and if he received this punch, he could save a lot of trouble.
"You're so confident. ”
Who is talking! The old man looked at Jiang Qingjiu suspiciously, this is the so-called monk's transmission, but he has seen it.
"You're not my opponent, sir, stop it, and the members of the Cavendi family will arrive in a while, and you won't be able to escape when the time comes, so it's better to tell me everything you know, maybe the adults will be able to reuse you." The old man tried to say in his heart.
"You're so confident you're going to be able to beat me. ”
It seems that this Oriental can really do sound transmission. While the old man was surprised in his heart, he also strengthened his determination to kill Jiang Sake, the fewer such people, the better.
"That's natural, I've been practicing physical arts for 50 years. ”
"50 Years ,,,"
With a bang, there was a loud noise, and the floor exploded, stirring up a puff of dust.
It's a pity, his strength is not weak, he can play with Quark at such a level, Pace stood on a high place and looked down at everything that happened below, and felt a trace of pity for this Oriental man in his heart.
Suddenly, just as the dust had settled, there was a miserable cry.
No, no, the voice is old, not like an Oriental, it can't be. Pace rushed down quickly, brushing away the dust, only to see the old man Quark with half an arm bloody, covered with cold sweat, kneeling on the ground with his eyes bulging, and constantly screaming. Ginger sake is gone.
