Chapter 198: Celebration Banquet
"Valliant knight from the Far East, thank you, you saved our entire castle!" Count Bauhinia, in his forties, tall and majestic, with golden wavy hair, a straight nose, and a loud voice, strode over, gave Xu Zhuo a heavy hug, and kissed Xu Zhuo on the left and right cheeks. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Xu Zhuo is really not used to this kind of etiquette, but he has to show his demeanor in the public and follow the local customs. You can't embarrass the Orientals! Although, Xu Zhuo has never seen the Orientals of this world. The only one is still the young lady who was abducted and trafficked and said to be the daughter of a big family in the East, or the farmhouse girl who "soul crossed" with him, but she has been "sent" back by Xu Zhuo.
The beautiful countess smiled skillfully, and also came over and stretched out her hand to Xu Zhuo, Xu Zhuo had no choice but to gently pinch the other party's delicate and soft fingers according to local etiquette, and kissed the back of his white and tender hand.
"My Divine Sparrow Knight, can I be honored to know your name?" Count Bauhinia asked as he looked at Xu Zhuo sincerely.
Xu Zhuo said humbly: "Lord Earl is too polite, my surname is Xu Mingzhuo, maybe the name of the East is a bit awkward for you." ”
"It's okay, the mysterious oriental culture is vast and profound, and even the name is so short!" Count Bauhinia laughed and "patted a sycophant", and immediately turned to all the people and shouted loudly, "I declare that from now on, Knight Xu Zhuo will be the most precious guest of our Bauhinia Castle, and also our honorary patron saint!"
The tide of applause and cheers rang out, Xu Zhuo couldn't help muttering in his heart, he had only heard of the honorary professor, what the hell is this honorary guardian saint? However, it seems that this old boy has been calculated, I just saw the unevenness and pulled out a knife to help, why will I have to protect you in the future?
"In celebration of carrying the beast tide, I declare that from now on, the Bauhinia Castle will begin to revelry for three days and three nights!" said Count Bauhinia again loudly.
The people inside the castle shouted again.
Immediately, with the order of the Earl of Bauhinia, a steady stream of all kinds of food and wine was transported from the Earl's mansion for the enjoyment of the people of the city. In other words, during these three days and three nights, there is free food and wine, and everyone does not have to work, no wonder everyone is so excited!
More and more torches are lit, illuminating the whole castle as if it were day, and people start singing and dancing directly on the streets, a jubilant scene, all kinds of fireworks bloom, fire trees and silver flowers never sleep, just like the Chinese New Year in the real world.
And some high-level people like Earl Bauhinia naturally won't carnival on the street so badly, they have a special hall to hold a drinking party, and Xu Zhuo, as a hero who has made meritorious contributions, is naturally qualified to participate.
This is a large hall comparable to an auditorium, accommodating hundreds of people without any problem, all of them are made of huge stones, one by one, candles, composed of various styles of lamps, or suspended ceilings, or tower-shaped stands, burning and blooming, and the lamps are decorated with crystals, shining, and the scene environment is very elegant.
There is a band playing soothing music in the corner, and there are beautiful dancers dancing in the center of the hall, showing graceful dancing, exotic style, hooking, even if Xu Zhuo is used to seeing beautiful women, he can't help but glance at it a few more times.
The wine in the Earl's Mansion is naturally more exquisite than the wine in the tavern outside, at least, there is not only ale wine here, but also grape wine with a mellow and fragrant taste, although it is not as good as Lafite on the earth in 82 years, but it also has a unique flavor, Xu Zhuo tasted a few sips, Rao is not a wine lover, and he loves it very much.
Xu Zhuo sat on an animal skin sofa, eating roast lamb shank, drinking grape wine, only interested in delicious food, not sociable, but like him, a "big hero in the limelight", as long as he was cold, there would naturally be all kinds of beauties with different styles and feelings to take the initiative to come up.
No, in less than half an hour, several groups of beauties came forward to talk, Yan Thin Huan Fat has them, I have to say that the women here are very open, if Xu Zhuo is willing, he can even immediately pull a beautiful woman to the small room next door, because, there are beautiful women who hint at him like this, but unfortunately, Xu Zhuo is not much interested in this kind of dewy relationship, and refuses one by one. He wanted to leave his first time to Mo Xuan, how could he easily lose her?
Seeing it in the distance, Aldolph couldn't help but smile slightly, walked over, raised his glass to Xu Zhuo, and said: "Xu Zhuo, you are really so determined, if it were me, I am afraid that I would have already carried two or three beauties to the corner of Hu Tianhai!"
Xu Zhuo replied, took a sip of wine and said, "What is the matter with Mr. Oldolph coming to me?" He naturally saw that Oldolph had nothing to do but ascend to the Three Treasures Palace. He had a keen sense of awareness, and he had noticed that Aldolph kept looking at him.
Aldolph laughed, put down his glass, sat down, and said, "It's refreshing to talk to a smart person! Since you can see it, then I'll just say it, you killed two sixth-order demonic beasts, you should have two sixth-order demonic cores in your hands, right? Can you transfer one to me at a reasonable price? I prefer that grizzly bear's demonic core! Don't tell me no, I later led someone to search carefully, and there was no demonic core in the corpses of the two demonic beasts!"
It turns out that the three-headed Demon Beast King is only a sixth-order demonic beast? Doesn't it mean that the highest one here is a ninth-order demonic beast? There is even a legendary beast god who has broken through the tenth order? Xu Zhuo muttered in his heart, he has been in this castle for a few days, and he has also taken the farmhouse girl to the most well-informed tavern to drink, and after intentionally inquiring, he naturally knows some about the situation in this world.
"It seems that it may be because this is the edge of the dark forest, the sixth-order demonic beast can be the king, it is estimated that in the depths of the dark forest, it must be an eighth- or ninth-order powerful demonic beast, otherwise it will not be able to get on the stage!" Xu Zhuo guessed in his heart. Thinking of the huge demonic beast he saw when he first entered the dark forest, that kind of coercion was by no means comparable to the two demonic beasts he shot, and said in his heart that it was estimated that it might be a ninth-order demonic beast, the real king of demonic beasts, and even, it could be a tenth-order beast god.
The tenth-order beast god has already surpassed the realm of the king and belongs to another existence! It is rumored that the tenth-order beast god has shed the body of a demonic beast and cultivated into a human body.
"How's it going, brother, are you selling it or not?" urged Aldolph with some impatience.
Xu Zhuo smiled: "I don't know what Your Excellency is willing to give in exchange?"
Aldolph stretched out a slap and said, "Five hundred gold coins!"
Xu Zhuo shook his head suddenly, although five hundred gold coins was a lot of money for ordinary people here, but for a person like him who had superhuman vision and knowledge and was not short of money, five hundred gold coins was not enough to impress him. Moreover, the most important thing is that the value of that magic core is definitely more than five hundred gold coins.
"How about six hundred?"
Xu Zhuo still shook his head.
"Eight hundred is the most! If you don't sell it, you will definitely regret it, there will be no one in this castle who will pay a higher price than me!Hmph, there are many treasures in the treasure house of Lord Earl, and Lord Count will not take a fancy to this magic core of yours at all!" Aldolph glanced at Xu Zhuo, smiled coldly, and said. I thought Xu Zhuo wanted to cherish the broom and sell it to the earl!
Xu Zhuo said: "Don't talk about it without 100,000 gold coins!"
"What a lion's mouth!" Aldolph said with a chill in his eyes, "Do you know who I am?
"I didn't force you to buy it. Xu Zhuo picked up his wine glass and said lightly. If you don't speculate, it's useless to say more, this Oldolph's momentum is too domineering, which makes people very uncomfortable, besides, Xu Zhuo's willingness to sell this magic core is not particularly strong, after all, gold coins can't bring out dreams, but maybe, the magic core can be brought out. It's like the jade ornament given to him by the elven princess, what if it can be taken out of the dream?
In this "dream", which I don't know if it's illusory or real, there is no point in becoming rich, because his social network is in the real world. Dreams are just dreams, no one knows anyone, and no matter how rich you are, it's just a night walk in brocade.
And if he becomes rich in reality, he can directly go to the Mo family to propose marriage! This is of great significance to him, and it can be said that it will be an event that will affect his whole life in the future!
Aldolph snorted coldly, brushed his sleeves and left, Xu Zhuo would not take it to heart, just be careful about this person in the future. Besides, he won't be here for long.
Altdorf went out of the basilica in a rage, and went out into the garden, where he was greeted by a noble lady with a look of enthusiasm and admiration for him, and Aldolph immediately got into a heated fight with the woman, and fooled around in the woods.
While he was drinking and having fun, Aldolph suddenly saw a warrior in leather armor hurrying in with a scroll, and immediately stopped the man.
"Jack, what are you going to do in such a hurry?" Aldolph recognized the warrior, once, as the chief instructor of the army, Aldolph also personally instructed the warrior named Jack in a few swordsmanship.
Jack immediately replied respectfully, "My lord, it's a message from the Grass and Wood Elves! It is said that many copies have been sent, and several castles and fortresses on the edge of the dark forest have been received!"
"Oh, the grass and wood elves, this race that has disappeared for I don't know how many years has actually reappeared in the world, and sent a message to us in the human world? Hurry up and show it to me!" Aldolph couldn't help but say, he directly snatched the scroll, and then shook it away with a "brush"!
