Chapter 223: It's Yours (Part I)
Chapter 223 [It's Yours] (I)
The four of them then got some more food to eat.
However, Chen Xiaolian and the tire spare tire brothers both just ate something they put in their storage watches. The countess found some food from the pantry, but no one wanted to touch it.
"Are you afraid that I will be poisoned?" The countess frowned and looked at Chen Xiaolian, who was gnawing bread: "What poison do you think you will carry with you when you go to the funeral today?"
Chen Xiaolian didn't say anything, just silently finished eating bread and drinking a few sips of mineral water before saying lightly: "Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years." ”
The countess sighed, and then her attention was drawn to Chen Xiaolian's other movements.
"Where did you get the food and drink from?" the girl looked at Chen Xiaolian curiously: "You didn't bring any bags." But you can always come up with something, where are these things hidden?"
Chen Xiaolian stood up, walked to the side, flushed his hands with the remaining mineral water, wiped it clean, and then turned to look at the countess: "Do you have a lot of questions?"
"Of course, I've only been with you for a few hours, and I've had more and more questions. ”
"Okay. Chen Xiaolian clapped his hands, walked to her and sat down, and looked into the eyes of the countess: "So...... Back to the conditions we talked about earlier. I'm going to sue you now, your offer is too high. ”
The countess's expression tightened: "You don't agree?"
Chen Xiaolian smiled, he deliberately paused for a moment, carefully observing the nervous gaze in the girl's eyes, and then deliberately said slowly: "However, considering some reasons...... This condition is a bit harsh, but I have decided to agree to it. ”
The countess raised an eyebrow.
"Your Excellency, I want to ......"
"No, it's okay to call me Xianyin. She looked at Chen Xiaolian: "Didn't you give me this name just now? ”
“...... All right. Fairy sound. Chen Xiaolian shrugged his shoulders and looked unconcerned: "I can promise you three conditions." First, make sure you're safe and help you deal with those who attack you. Second, I tell you the answers you want to know, including the strange things that happened to you. Third...... Satisfy your curiosity. ”
Xianyin seemed relieved.
But Chen Xiaolian immediately said something again.
"But ......"
"Wait. How can there be but?"
"The sky-high asking price, landing to pay back. Chen Xiaolian shook his head: "I agreed to your asking price, but I think the payment method needs to be changed." ”
"What do you want?"
"It's simple, I want to see the real thing first. Chen Xiaolian said lightly: "I must get the sword blade first." ”
"No!" Xianyin immediately shook his head: "You are all very strong, if you get the blade and turn around and leave, and don't fulfill your promise, I can't do anything at all." ”
"No, I can cash out a portion of it first. Chen Xiaolian said slowly: "I also have the same risk. You should understand. The people who attacked you are very strong, and it is by no means easy for us to deal with such a strong opponent. And one of my companions has been seriously injured. If we continue to fight them, then we may suffer even more losses! And if we pay the price, you will not be able to give us the sword - let alone say that you are using yourself as a hostage.
In case that time comes, you won't be able to draw the blade. Even if we kill you, it won't help.
And it might hurt your pride to say something: your life or death means nothing to us – even if you are killed. We can't make up for the loss either.
So, I can't take that risk. ”
Xianyin thought silently for a while: "Then." Which part of the promise are you going to make first?"
"I can answer your questions first and solve the doubts in your mind. Chen Xiaolian smiled: "This is the condition I offered." ”
“...... That's it?"
"Listen!" Tires, who had been listening to the side, suddenly stood up and looked at Xianyin coldly: "You'd better understand one thing! Protect you and fight those guys!
But if we don't protect you...... Those guys can easily grab you and get the blade right out of you!
And that time. We want to get the blades, and we can attack them as well.
In other words, to protect you, or not to protect you, we have to fight them! Actually, it doesn't make a difference.
Do you understand?
So...... If you want, then cooperate.
If you don't want to, then let's leave! ”
Xianyin's face changed.
"And...... I think the way they do things you see...... They don't skimp on killing people!"
As he spoke, the tire deliberately looked at Xianyin with cold eyes.
Chen Xiaolian laughed secretly in his heart on the side: This tire cooperates well with himself, and the two of them sing red face and white face.
"Okay!" Chen Xiaolian knew the truth of being too late, and continuing to scare this girl might cause the opposite effect, especially the girl in front of him was not an ordinary person, but a female noblewoman with a net worth of hundreds of millions.
He interrupted the tire at the right time, looked at Xianyin, and said slowly: "Then what I said is already very clear, I can meet one of your conditions, and I can answer your questions now." And then...... You must give me the blade. And...... I don't accept bargaining. That's my final bid, and if you don't agree, that's okay, we'll get out of here. ”
“......”
Xianyin was thinking seriously.
After a while, the girl suddenly showed a strange smile: "In addition to helping me get rid of those who attacked me...... Can I choose the other two criteria?"
"Huh?" Chen Xiaolian's heart moved.
"I mean...... I'm not asking you to answer the strange things that happened to me first. I want you to meet my other condition first!"
Chen Xiaolian was really stunned at this moment.
He really didn't expect this girl to make such a request.
"Other conditions?" Chen Xiaolian frowned: "What?"
"I want to ...... Take a look at the hilt of the sword in the stone. Xianyin looked at Chen Xiaolian: "It must be on you, isn't it?" I bet it must be, it must have been hidden by you in that strange way." ”
"Do you want to take a look?" Chen Xiaolian took a deep breath.
"yes, I'd like to see it. Xianyin's tone and expression were very serious, and there was no joke at all: "Right here, right now, right now, right under your noses." You're all so much better than me, and there's no way I'm going to play any tricks. I just want to see ...... Then, when I'm done, I'll give it back to you. Afterwards...... I will give you the blade of my sword.
What do you think?
This requirement is not difficult at all. ”
Chen Xiaolian squinted his eyes: "Aren't you eager to know what happened to you?"
"It doesn't hurt to know later. Xianyin said lightly: "Anyway, it's been so many years, wait a few more days, I can afford to wait." Didn't you promise that as long as you got the blade, you would fulfill my three conditions? I choose to believe you. ”
"So, you just want to see the hilt first, and then give us the blade...... That's all?"
"Yes. ”
Chen Xiaolian looked at the tire and then at the spare tire. Both of the brothers had strange expressions - Xianyin's request was not difficult, it was simply too easy.
"Good!"
Chen Xiaolian first looked at the radar in the system and made sure that there were no green dots around.
Then the tires immediately walked out of the stone fort and took a quick turn outside, making sure that no one was approaching.
"Safety!"
After the tire walked back, he said quickly: "The surrounding terrain is very open, there are no obstacles that can be hidden, and it can be sure that it is safe." ”
Chen Xiaolian nodded, and he took out the hilt of the sword in the stone from the storage watch.
When this worn-out and rusty thing was held in Chen Xiaolian's hand, he clearly felt the immortal sound in front of him, and his breathing seemed to pause.
This girl stared at the thing in Chen Xiaolian's hand with bright eyes!
"That's what it is...... The hilt of the sword in the stone?"
Xianyin hesitated, she took two steps closer and approached Chen Xiaolian: "I can ...... Can you take it and see it?"
Chen Xiaolian was very calm, and directly handed the hilt of the sword into Xianyin's hand - in this environment, Chen Xiaolian was not afraid of what tricks this girl would do.
Xianyin took the hilt of the sword in the stone, and felt very heavy in her hand, her wrist shook slightly, and she held it hard, her slender and slender fingers gently stroked the rust of the hilt, as if feeling the cold and rough feeling of the fingertips.
There was a small broken blade above the hilt, the fracture was rough, and the blade had long been wrapped in rust, and there was no way to see anything of its original appearance.
However, Xianyin carefully rubbed the fracture, her eyes were complicated, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
She just looked at this thing very carefully and carefully little by little, as if she wanted to see this thing in her eyes and remember it deeply in her heart.
She watched very slowly, for more than ten minutes.
Chen Xiaolian didn't rush her, nor did he show any impatient expression.
Finally, Xianyin let out a long breath and carefully returned the hilt of the sword to Chen Xiaolian.
"I'm done. ”
Chen Xiaolian nodded, and casually put the hilt of the sword back into the storage watch.
Xianyin raised her eyebrows, and looked at the watch on Chen Xiaolian's wrist: "Your things are all hidden in this watch? What is this? magic equipment, or is it a high-tech space storage instrument?"
"You know a lot. Chen Xiaolian smiled faintly: "Have you watched a lot of fantasy stories or science fiction movies?"
Xianyin shook her head and didn't speak.
"Now your curiosity is satisfied?"
“...... Satisfied. (To be continued......)
