In the hundreds of years since the founding of the country, the number of people who have been awarded the title of knight, below the earl, is not enough to be a nobleman of the fiefdom, according to the custom, more rewards for the inner city mansion.

The middle and outer rings in the south of the city, there are many mansions, and they are rich and noble, which is where these noble families live.

At this moment, the moon is on the wall, and it is getting late, and there are no well-dressed pedestrians on the street, but an uninvited guest in ragged clothes has come.

He hurried through the lights of the houses on both sides of the road and went straight to a magnificent house.

The three small buildings in the courtyard are built around a large tree, and if you look at it during the day, the scenery must be quite elegant.

It's just that the lights in the courtyard of this house are not on at night, only through the shade of the trees, you can vaguely see the oil lamps in the main building, which is very terrible.

The gate of the house was tall and wide, and there was a low door on the side, and a delicate hut built against the wall, probably the porter or something.

The scruffy figure looked around for a moment, then cautiously knocked on the low door.

"Knock Knock"

After a long while, the low door slowly opened, and strangely, he couldn't hear the slightest sound during the time he waited.

The door was opened by a thin old man, who was wrapped in a gray robe, leaving only a sallow face full of wrinkles, and his appearance was very terrifying.

As soon as the person who knocked on the door saw the old man, he hurriedly stepped forward: "Hei Lao, something is wrong..."

"Smack"

Before he finished speaking, Hei Lao's slap fell: "Waste, you can't solve it with a hunchback, and you dare to come to see me?"

The person who knocked on the door was slapped on his back and flew out, and the light fell, revealing a lewd face with sharp monkey cheeks, which was none other than Yuri.

Yuri covered his face and got up quickly, and said aggrievedly: "Hei Lao, you are not authentic, right?"

Hei Lao snorted coldly, closed the low door casually, turned around and walked slowly onto the dim street.

Yuri followed two steps, walked to the side with a cat's waist, and then complained:

"Then Charles Griffin is a talent that the Lords of Steel are looking for, and he is a figure who can compete with Arthur the Returning Blade Sword, and he can easily defeat the son of Captain Sainz when he is drunk, and even half of his sword and gun are destroyed..."

"Such a character, you don't say anything, and let me deal with it as an ordinary person, isn't it..."

The black old man's face is very thin, and the furrows on his face make it impossible to distinguish which one is wrinkles and which one is scars.

I saw the crow's feet on the corner of his eyebrows twitch slightly: "Half a sword and spear, Eliman Garrett is also a seventh-level warrior, how can he not be an opponent?"

Yuri made an oath with one hand, pointed to his eyes with the other, and said with palpitations:

"I've seen with my own eyes, I'll lose very quickly, only two or three moves from the head to the end, half a sword and spear will be smashed, and those swan guards around him can't even resist a single move. ”

Although the black old man walked slowly, he did not stop, and led Yuri into an alley far away from his house, and then asked in a deep voice:

"When?"

"Just this evening, at the Dragon Tail Tavern. Yuri hesitated, he had the impression that the alley seemed to be a dead end.

"And what about him now?" the black elder didn't seem to notice Yuri's condition, and still walked slowly and methodically.

"Now?I'm almost dying~"

"Huh?" Hearing this, the black old man stopped, turned around, and squinted at Yuri.

"I told him that it was Rod who wanted to kill him, and he rushed to Rhodes to take revenge. ”

Yuri said proudly, but a pair of thief eyes traced the footsteps of the black old man, and found that he had no intention of going deeper, so he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

The black old man nodded slowly, as if he was completely unaware of Yuri's little eyes, and muttered:

"Hmm... The green lion has enemies all over the place, and there are a lot of ideas to beat his son, but unfortunately all of them have come and gone, count you as clever..."

"It's all left over from your play, I've just learned a little bit of skin. ”

Yuri hurriedly waved his hand, and said with some embarrassment: "It's just that although this green lion respects him two points in black and white, it can't compete with the power of the Lord of Steel after all, in case..."

The black elder stood in the darkness, his eyes were cold, and he stared at Yuri and swallowed a mouthful of spit with difficulty, his knees weakened, he fell to the ground, and kowtowed:

"In case Charles doesn't die this time, I'll be in trouble, ask the black old man to show me a clear way, Yuri will change his name and surname, and he will not hesitate to break his appearance and disfigure!"

A hint of mockery flashed across the black old sallow's face, and he reached out and gently touched Yuri's head, as if he was spoiling his juniors.

Yuri looked up flatteringly, with a look of admiration, as if he had really been a grandson to the black elder.

It's just that in the next moment, Yuri's face changed, and he became extremely frightened, as if he had been bitten by a poisonous snake: "Hei Lao, you..."

A faint green light bloomed silently, and in the dim alleyway, it was particularly dazzling.

"Pounce"

Under the green light, Yuri fell straight down before he could finish his words, fear and hatred condensed into a hideous expression that froze on his face.

Seeing Yuri foaming at the mouth and falling, the black old man turned his palm and withdrew the dark green, only to see that in his palm, it was a turquoise crystal.

It seemed that even he was quite jealous of the green light, until the green light gradually disappeared and the crystals dimmed, he let out a sigh:

"Hmph, there is no bright road, but there is a dead end. ”

At this time, a tall figure walked out of the darkness of the alleyway, took the words of the black old man and said:

"It's ridiculous, the errand is done like this, and you still want to live?"

After the black old man finished speaking, he pretended to be surprised, and hurriedly bowed and saluted:

"Little Master, why are you here?"

The tall figure waved his hand heroically and came to the black old man:

"I heard the movement and came out to take a look, but I didn't expect this hand tail to come to the door by himself, I thought that Heibo had already dealt with it. ”

"It's me who was careless, I didn't expect Charles to be dead..."The black old man wrinkled his old face, and in the darkness it was like a dead wood and a rotten plant, and he couldn't see his expression.

The tall figure raised his hand to interrupt the black elder, and said softly:

"It doesn't matter, the procedures for the transfer of the title jointly signed by the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of War were completed a month ago, and although the Lord of Steel has a big face, he can't run rampant. ”

"Yes, the Libercil family was born and died for the empire, this baron, the empire owes the little master. ”

The tall figure strode out of the alley with his hands in his hands, and sighed with emotion when he heard the words:

"Hey, too, my cousin has become a young eagle, not necessarily rare such a first-class title, I have to go back to the camp tomorrow to resume my life, and it will be troublesome for Hei Bo to deal with it here. ”

"Just leave it to me, little master, let's go. ”

"By the way, Hebo...", the tall figure took two steps, thought for a moment, and paced back:

"During the day, the imp of the Sidley family made a reckless move and sent the waste of the gold digger Rohr to test it, I don't think Heibo will repeat the mistakes of the past, right?"

Hei Lao was still in place like a piece of rotten wood, but his sleeves shook slightly: "Don't worry, little master, I know how to do it." ”

"Hehe, Hei Bo, you can do it, I can trust it. ”
