……

Like many wealthy people, Arouang has a separate dining room, which is divided into two front and back. The foyer www.biquge.info the Pen Fun Pavilion is a place for guests to wait, and there are many artistic statues and classic paintings for guests to talk about when they are bored. Obviously, this time, the role of the antechamber was not played, and at most it was only a buffer area for the servants.

The back hall is where you can eat, and above a long table that can accommodate up to 12 people at a time, are three chandeliers in the shape of three branches. The light reflects off the crystal cups at each seat, sparkling and shining. All the cutlery here is not ordinary wood or metal such as stainless steel, but expensive alloys with glazed colors. The white tablecloth was dotted with greenhouse roses, just like the varieties they had seen in the living room before. In the golden tray were piles of purple grapes and some exotic fruits from unknown countries.

Everyone took their seats. According to Aruon, in order to pay tribute to the deceased, the first seat had to be vacated. Therefore, they sit opposite each other according to the distinction between subject and object. On one side are Gantian, the Maniac, and Lavinia, and on the other are Aruon, Sofia, Lisa, and Chrissy. Several well-dressed and good-looking servants stood beside them, trays of wine or sauce.

Before the main dish was served, the Aruon family and Lavinia prayed as usual, while Gan Tian and the madman, who did not have this faith, could only look at the fruit on the table and be in a daze.

After the prayer is over.

"Let me introduce you formally," said Arouon, smiling as he looked at a beautiful young woman with a somewhat pale face beside him, and looked at the attracted guests in front of him, "this beautiful young lady is my wife, Sophia York." She's been in bed since she's been sick lately, but she's been getting better lately. ”

Although her complexion doesn't look so healthy, Sophia is undoubtedly an awesome figure. She had long gray blonde curls and a stern line at the corners of her mouth, which contrasted sharply with Aruon's warm smile all the time. Her breasts are superb, and her low neckline is just what she needs for social occasions to show off her beauty.

"I'm really sorry for what happened before," Sophia's grim face softened, but quickly regained her noble appearance. "But we do have a bit of a basement in our house, and the stuff in it is very important. ”

"It's fine. Gan Tian raised his glass, "May your body recover soon!"

……

After Gan Tian continued to drink and told his details, the scene became a little uncontrollable.

Lisa tried her best to put her little head on the tray, and said excitedly to Gan Tian: "In this case, brother, you can often come to play with me in the future." ”

Before Gan Tian could reply, Aruon said solemnly: "Lisa, you must know that Gan Tian is facing the most important exam in his life, how can he have so much time to play with you." Besides, you can't speak Esperanto well, so if you want to see the Hanging Gardens in Kongzhou, you should study hard!"

Lisa hummed softly and honestly returned to her seat.

Seeing Lisa's lost appearance, Gan Tian was about to comfort him, but Lavinia beside him quietly pulled him and said in a low voice: "No wonder you dared to do that in the teacher's office before...... is so arrogant, it turns out that there is such a backstage. However, since you are my student, the teacher must teach you well. ”

Gan Tian looked at Lavinia's face that had turned red, and said with a smile: "Teacher, you obviously can't drink it but you want to taste it, you see, now you are starting to talk nonsense." ”

"The teacher is an adult," Lavinia squinted, reached out and snatched the cup from Gan Tian's hand, and said with a smile, "It's a minor like you who wants to ban alcohol!"

Seeing this, Gan Tian shrugged his shoulders helplessly at Chrissy opposite, and the hidden language was, "It's not that I don't want to drink, you can't hand me any more wine." ”

Chrissy pursed her lips slightly, took a sip of the red wine, and said with a smile: "Earlier, I knew from your conversation and your clothes that you were not an ordinary person, it turned out to be his son. In this way, we may have missed other banquets before. ”

Gan Tian smiled: "That's a pity!"

At this time, Sophia on the side swallowed a mouthful of vegetable and beef soup and interjected quietly: "I also had a relationship with your father a year ago, and in my impression, he should be a watertight character. Presumably the same should be true of his discipline of you. ”

"That's true," Gan Tian's face involuntarily lowered at the mention of Gan Xiangsheng. But soon, he suppressed the depression in his heart, and said with a smile: "But although he is very strict with me, it's a pity that he is too busy to implement it himself." That's why on holidays like this, I have a little free time to come out and eliminate harm for the people!"

"Don't say that," Sophia said, with a straight face, "and your father must be worried about you if you're out so late." ”

Gan Tian was about to reply, but the madman who had been eating happily all the time raised his head, and suddenly shouted as if he remembered something: "Oops, Gan Tian, we forgot to call your relative in advance." How can I go back now?"

"What's the hurry," Gan Tian glanced at the maniac with disdain, and said, "The dishes haven't been served yet!"

"It's not polite to leave before the main course is served," Arouon laughed, "and even if it's late, I can send someone to take you back." If the weather is good, it will be a two-hour drive from here to the city of Huaizhou. ”

The madman touched his mouth and whispered to Gan Tian: "However, if you go back late, that person will probably be angry." ”

Gan Tian quietly stepped on the madman, covered his mouth and whispered, "You don't really think that Aruon just believes that we have eliminated that evil spirit. The reason why he hasn't talked to us about money is because he hasn't fully trusted us. ”

With that, Gan Tian took back the cup that had been drunk from Lavinia's hand and poured it halfway again. At the same time, he continued to say to the madman: "As I expected, we will not be able to go back today. Aruon wants to test our results with facts, and if nothing happens tonight, then everyone is okay and go home. If something happens tonight, then ......"

Gan Tian didn't say the latter words, he believed that even with the brain circuits of a madman, he could guess that kind of result.

……

In a huge porcelain trough, a piece of fish-like fresh meat nearly half a meter long is half-exposed on the fatty soup, and several palm-sized fish scales are scattered around the fresh meat, and some shells and vegetables dot the soup. In the thick heat, the fragrance is permeated, like a cooked fish swimming in soup.

The madman drooled when he saw it, Gan Tian coughed dryly, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and asked Arouang: "Such a big fish scale, is it the big red fish in the Tianchi on the legendary Fortune Mountain in Central Continent?"

"You have a good eye," said Arouon proudly, "this is the big red fish in the heavenly pond at the top of the Fortune Mountain in the middle of the continent, each of which is said to grow to a length of more than ten meters. Needless to say, the taste is simply indescribable. It is said that after taking a bite, the taste lingers on the tip of the tongue for as long as a day. ”

"That's amazing!" the madman couldn't help but exclaim.

Gan Tian coughed dryly twice and said, "But I heard that the big red fish is a protected animal of the Zhongtian Empire, and only members of the royal family have the opportunity to eat it, and it is also a very rare and precious experience for them." ”

"Of course I didn't get it," said Arouon, "and it's all my father has been collecting over the past few decades, and the meat of this big red fish has been in cold storage for years." ”

"How many years?" the madman looked at the large piece of fresh meat in surprise.

"Don't worry, the fish is well preserved," Aruon laughed, "and that's the highest level we use to entertain our guests." ”

"This ...... It's just too precious. The madman stammered, "I ...... "At this moment, Shen Tu's teachings are in a fierce struggle with his own heart, whether to adhere to the pure rules and precepts of the Taoist priests, or to indulge himself like Gan Tian? For the madman, the answer is becoming clearer and clearer. He didn't want to follow the path of being born precious in the world, so he decisively picked up the clamp and stretched it out to the plate of fish.

At this moment, Gan Tian suddenly made a move and grabbed the madman's right hand.

Everyone looked at Gan Tian in great puzzlement, but suddenly, a terrible scream pierced the night sky. This was followed by an even more piercing scream, tearing at the peace in everyone's hearts. Before they could react, there was a chaotic note from the side of the living room where the utensils were broken, completely shattering the peace in everyone's hearts.

Originally, the madman was still very puzzled, and even a little annoyed, when he heard those voices, he had a premonition in his heart, and then saw Gan Tian's left hand inadvertently hidden in his trouser pocket, and he also understood most of it in his heart. It's just that in this short period of time, how can such drastic changes occur?

……

Seeing Aruon chase out with a weapon and a few sturdy men, Gan Tian turned to the madman and said, "Do as I say, you should hurry back to our place where we eat now." But you can't do it, and you'll act like you don't know anything. You'll have to keep an eye on Lisa and Lavinia, and of course you'll have to keep an eye out for the others. In addition......" Gan Tian nervously glanced at the outside world under the dark night, and then advised: "Remember, the key to whether we can get out this time is you, pay attention to the changes in some things in the environment." ”

"Gan Tian, I ...... if you suddenly say that"

When the madman was still doubting himself, Gan Tian snorted coldly and turned into the form that was wrapped in purple substance.

"Gan Tian!" the madman cried out at the end, and then he saw Gan Tian pass through the broken wall, leap forward, and be swallowed up by the endless night and the vast frost.

……

"I will do it," said the word of determination and encouragement, and the madman gritted his teeth and strode along an unclear path in the midst of the mess. He knew he had to go back, he knew he had to do what the emperor said, he knew he should hurry.
