Chapter 186: Men and Women

As soon as he was out of the range of Oroyosta, Feng Yinqiu immediately used the text message technique to get in touch with the Sword of Benevolence, and the two met in a small inn on the edge of the outer city.

It's not accurate to say that it's two people, because there are also Zhang Yili and the young handyman who was knocked unconscious, but Feng Yinqiu used arcane stealth for the two of them and brought them here together.

And the Sword of Benevolence didn't have any low-key consciousness at all, and after swaggering in, he laughed: "What's the matter? Brother Feng, how about this big show arranged for you this time? But it's exciting enough, right? Slap the face of the Fernandez family to the fullest, and now the whole Oroyustak knows the name of Your Excellency the Chief of Staff!"

After Feng Yinqiu closed the door, he used a three-ring illusion to cut off the sound, and then smiled: "This time it is really thanks to the invincible brother's strategy, it seems that you are not generally well-informed in this Oroyosta, and the Fernandez family's plans can't hide it from you." ”

"Not really, where do I have time to pay attention to what these pigs are thinking. The sword of benevolence shook its head. "I'm calling you for the Duke of Incre. I originally thought that after Xiao Yanli's performance was over, I would find a way to compete with him, and bring you in, so that the Duke and those Euros would know that we were powerful, and then we would do something better, and by the way, help the reputation of the envoys to get out. I didn't expect such a ...... to come out in the end. By the way, Iri, why are the Fernandez family coercing you?"

Zhang Yili, who was sitting by the wall, replied, "...... They seem to have found out some of my details, and used the matter of the Shenzhou ethnic group to blackmail me into listening to them. ”

"No, I mean, why are they threatening you?"

“...... They seem to have always been like this, for these big families and nobles, a certain independent actor who suddenly became popular is a rare plaything that suddenly appears. I used to hide it well, and I used some means to hint at them that I had a powerful archmage behind me, and now it seems to be exposed......"

"No, not this. "The sword of benevolence waved its hand. "According to Anthony's fat old man, they should have family interests beyond their personal preferences when they came to you with such fanfare...... Of course, it's possible that some rotten and filthy old guy in the Fernández family is obsessed with you and wants to get you at all costs, but I don't think that's very likely......"

"Well, it does. Feng Yinqiu nodded. He also knows that those in high positions are extravagant and domineering, and there are indeed many people who like to take advantage of tricks, but it is not that they are brainless, or they can't climb up at all. "Did you accidentally get involved with them?"

"Not really. Zhang Jinli spread his hands anxiously. "I know it's dangerous to have a relationship with these families, so I've always been careful, and I've been careful to choose the gifts sent by those worshippers, and I won't accept anything that is too valuable......"

"Could that be some other ......?" the Sword of Benevolence reminded. "For example, the great poet West, who helped you write songs, wrote poems or plays that mocked the Fernandez family, or once slept with their head woman and left an illegitimate child or something... The Fernandez family actually wants to use you to lure that guy out. ”

"That's even more impossible, there can't be such a thing. Zhang Jinli replied categorically.

"Why?" the Sword of Benevolence glared. "I'll tell you, Xiaoyi, you don't know your heart. Especially these poets and talents, there are five or six people on the surface, and they are all negative and affectionate in their bones. You'd better deal less with this kind of person. ”

"No, that's because West is ......" Zhang Yili looked like he wanted to say something, and looked at the young man lying in the corner. The boy was still unconscious, and it was Feng Yinqiu who brought him all the way here with his powerful hand.

"You can't say that the poet West is that kid, do you? I think he seems to be Zeng Lin's son or nephew?" He also vaguely remembered that this young man was the junior of the leader of the laundry gang, so it was no wonder that he stayed with Zhang Yili.

The expression on Zhang Yili's face became extremely strange, and he was stunned for a long time before he spoke: "... His name is Zeng Wenyuan, and he is the only son of Uncle Zeng Lin, and he is my cousin...... Uncle Qiu, you guessed it right, he is really the famous great poet Vest of Oroyosta......"

"Oh?" the Sword of Benevolence was also surprised. "Is that really the case? I heard that this poet West has been famous for two years, and has published several famous poetry books and opera books, could it be that this boy has learned this from his mother's womb?"

Zhang Jinli hurriedly explained: "That's true. Xiaowen has been fond of opera and poetry since he was a child, and often secretly collects books on this subject. He began to write secretly when he was eleven years old, and amassed many poetry books and plays, and after arriving here with me in this Oroyosta, he found an opportunity to circulate them, and then slowly became famous. ”

"There are also people who are famous for their poetry when they are young, and it is said that there was a fourteen-year-old champion in the previous dynasty who moved the world with his poetry and writing. Feng Yinqiu said on the side, although this kind of thing is rare, it is not incredible. "But this kind of poetry, books and opera is just a game pastime. I think this young man's arcane skills can be used in a similar way, which can be said to be rare among the Euros. ”

"It's not as simple as a pastime, Uncle Wind. Zhang Yanli said again, his little face slightly flushed. "My performance can be so successful, attract so many people to like it, and earn so much money to subsidize everyone, but it is all thanks to Xiaowen's planning. Many nobles are very sought after by him, and there are many famous people among them, but it is not like the young people who are chasing after me. ”

Feng Yinqiu didn't argue with her, just smiled slightly and asked, "Where did he learn his arcane?"

Xiaowen was originally self-taught, and then used the money he earned to find some nobles who were not happy with their lives, and asked them to teach the introductory arcane, and later found a way to get in touch with a professor at the Arcane Academy in the name of the poet West, and infiltrated the Arcane Academy with the help of sending poems to the professor, and went to audit many arcane courses. Later, he taught me, but I wasn't very talented, and I was just good enough to get started with some arcane items and scrolls. ”

"Oh, then this boy is a rare genius. Feng Yinqiu couldn't help but nod in approval. The arcane level of the two and three rings does not seem to be high, but he has secretly learned it to such a point in a few years, and he and the Sword of Benevolence can go a long way in the arcane arts, which is the profound background of each person, this young man is indeed worthy of the title of a genius.

"Then he learned arcane things as a poet, do the others know?"

"No...... Originally, this was just a secret between the two of us, because Uncle Zeng never let him learn poetry and opera, and even beat him for it......" Zhang Jinli was a little embarrassed. "But a lot of people in the laundry gang know about his arcane studies, and we're just talking about the payment we get for helping the great poet West secretly pass on the manuscripts. ”

"In this way, he should be a calm and open-minded person, why is he like that in that theater today?" asked Feng Yinqiu.

"I don't know... Xiaowen seemed very strange today, when he suddenly jumped out to confront the Fernandez family, it was not his character at all......"

"Wake him up and ask. The sword of benevolence walked up and slapped the boy on him, and the boy began to wake up leisurely. In fact, Zhang Jinli didn't use multiple techniques to stun him at the beginning, but later Feng Yinqiu wanted to take him away, thinking that he was in trouble when he woke up, so he directly used the acupoint sealing hand to make him sleep until this time.

The young man named Zeng Wenyuan stood up and looked around blankly, his consciousness was probably still stuck on the stage when he angrily scolded those Westerners, but he quickly came to his senses, nodded at Zhang Yili, and then looked at the Sword of Benevolence and bowed: "High Priest." ”

Now this young man looks sober and calm, not at all as arrogant as he was on the stage before, but Feng Yinqiu and the Sword of Benevolence can see the subtleties in his expression, his eyes were hot when he looked at Zhang Yili, but he didn't speak indiscriminately, and when he looked at the Sword of Benevolence, his eyes were full of fear and respect, obviously he was on guard in his heart.

"Don't call me High Priest, it's a trouble for the people of the temple to hear it, so you can call me Uncle Qiu like your cousin in the sky. The Sword of Benevolence said in a deep voice. The boy's fear of him was also for a reason, his father Zeng Lin had previously received training from the Avengeance Cult on the West Coast, and he often haunted the Cult, but his father was finally arranged by Old Man Zhang to go to Oroyosta to preside over the laundry gang, and he failed to stay and become an official believer, but his awe of the high priest of the Avengeance Cult was deeply imprinted in his mind.

“... Yes, Uncle Qiu—" The young man immediately replied obediently. He was originally very handsome and handsome, so he looked like a big girl who never saw outsiders in the boudoir.

"Why did the Fernandez family come to force your cousin?"

"I don't know. The boy replied honestly.

"And what did you do jumping out so excited?"

"They bullied Cousin Yuri, so naturally I had to come out to protect her. The young man also answered this well, but he inadvertently glanced at Feng Yinqiu next to him, as if he was resentful and disgusted.

Of course, this glance could not be hidden from the two of them, and the Sword of Benevolence asked, "Do you know him?"

"I don't know. The boy was back to his honest appearance.

"And what do you see him doing?"

"Nothing to do. ”

The Sword of Benevolence also has a little headache for such a stubborn young man who refuses to cooperate, this is his own person and a junior, and he can't be smashed with a punch or controlled by mental arcane. Zhang Yili on the side asked: "Xiaowen, just say what you know." Fortunately, Uncle Feng and Uncle Qiu are here today, and the Fernandez family can't embarrass us anymore. ”

"I really don't know anything. The young man named Zeng Wenyuan was also a little anxious. "I saw the guy Ahrens whisper to you about us Westerners, and I guessed that he must be threatening you, so I couldn't help but stand up. Do you want me to watch you being threatened by them and then taken away by them? Expose their tricks in front of so many people, make them lose face, so that I have a chance? ”

"But it seemed strange that you wanted to tell you that you were the poet West in front of so many people, and I almost thought you were being controlled by arcane art. ”

“...... Cousin Yuri, you ...... How can you say ......" Zeng Wenyuan glanced at the two of them with the Sword of Benevolence, and his face was anxious and embarrassed.

The Sword of Benevolence waved his hand: "Okay." Aren't you going to reveal your identity as a poet in front of so many people? Your cousin has already told us. It's just a false name for coaxing children, and since you don't want others to know, we won't mention it. However, your arcane talent is really good, you can study openly in the future, tell me any books and materials you want, and you don't have to sneak in if you want to enter the arcane academy. Today, the chief of staff of the envoys, Mr. Feng, slapped the Fernandez family in the face, leaving all the onlookers stunned, and finally the director of the Arcane Academy made a special trip to invite us to visit the Arcane Academy. Wait for me and Mr. Feng of the envoy group to do something in Oroyosta, and from now on, these European white pigs will no longer dare to underestimate our Shenzhou race, and it is trivial to get you a place for the official students of the Arcane Academy, understand?"

"It's... I ......" Zeng Wenyuan's handsome face turned red, probably wanting to say something, but after all, he didn't dare to speak in the face of the former vengeful high priest, and finally lowered his head. “... I understand. ”

"Then you really don't know why the Fernandez family suddenly forced your cousin Yuri?"

"I really don't know. ”

"Hmm... That's it. Anyway, they have had enough of the lesson today, and with the chairman of the academy to speak, they will not be stubborn anymore. From now on, the two of you will be in the legations, so you don't have to worry about security. ”

Zhang Yili hesitated a little: "But Uncle Feng said before that it was the envoys of the Great Cadres who invited Ulysses to perform, so should I ......?"

The Sword of Benevolence nodded: "Your identity as Ulysses, I'm afraid I have to talk to your grandfather about it." Don't worry, with me and Mr. Feng as a guarantor, your grandfather will never embarrass you, and I can't say that he will support you more in the future. ”

"Can you prevent my grandfather from interfering in our affairs?" Zhang Yili flattened. "His arrangements are always very boring, always unsentimental and ask us to do this and that. We still want to be as free as ever. ”

"Freedom comes at a price. Where is absolute freedom? Children are free because they have parents to wipe their buttocks. The Sword of Benevolence smiled disapprovingly. "As I said before, if you don't have enough strength to support you, the bigger and more dangerous your reputation is, and you will be caught as pets or killed at any time. With the envoys and the Zhang family as your backers, you can be regarded as having a foundation and can rest assured to do what you want. In fact, you don't need to worry too much about your grandfather, that's just a habit of fear that you have developed since childhood, you are now an adult with your own dependence, you have to have your own calculations and persistence, and then Uncle Feng and I speak for you, your grandfather can't force you. ”

“... This one... All right. Zhang Jinli could only nod. In fact, they really didn't have much to do except follow the envoys, if they didn't have a strong enough backer, both of them would be able to pay back, and the Laundry Gang's Oroyosta Shenzhou ethnic group would probably have no chance to resist under the wrath of the Fernandez family, and they would be wiped out.

The Sword of Benevolence looked at Zeng Wenyuan again, although the young man's face was uneven, he didn't dare to speak silently. This young man can hide his family and make a name for himself, he must be extremely clever and bold in his heart, especially with a little bit of pride, he will never be so obedient on the surface, but at this time, he has no time to pay attention to him, and with his small arms and legs, he should not be able to turn over any storms.

"Brother Feng, these two children will be handed over to you to take back to the camp. The Sword of Benevolence turned to Feng Yinqiu. "You, Old Man Zhang, and Daochang Liu should think carefully about how to officially open the envoy group into Oroyosta, I still have some things to deal with over there, and by the way, find someone to find out the details of the Arcane Academy, and what the hell is that Fernandez family. You'll be notified if there's any news. ”

"Well, that's fine. That's the trouble for Brother Invincible. Feng Yinqiu nodded. He also knew that the Sword of Benevolence had another opportunity and connections, which was also a good thing for the envoys, and one more channel in this continent would give him more opportunities and news.

After thinking about it, Feng Yinqiu asked casually: "By the way, what about Phil who came to Oroyusta with us?" I saw him standing with the woman from the Fernandez family before, so I tried a trick, but he helped the woman block it......

"I saw it too. I had met with the woman, who had been a leader of the Revival Society, known as the most beautiful woman in Oroyosta. Didn't that guy take an interest in that woman, right?"

"Have you forgotten?" reminded Feng Yinqiu. "When the guy named Phil introduced himself, he also said that his name was Fernandez. ”

"What?" the Sword of Benevolence was stunned for a moment, and recalled. "Seems to be really...... What the hell is this guy...... But forget it, he was originally an orc sent to him, and it was Inclair's dough mage who swore a blood oath to help them, and it was none of our business. ”

At this time, the blonde young man who was discussed by the two was sitting on a large sofa chair in a delicate and elegant garden, enjoying the bright sunshine and fragrant black tea pastries. Sitting opposite him was the first beauty of the imperial capital with a smile, changed into casual clothes at home, not as stunning as in the theater, and still bright and beautiful.

This is one of Julia's annexes in Oroyosta. As a well-known beauty in the imperial capital, of course, she will not only have a place for her to live in the family, but she also prefers these places that truly belong to her, especially when inviting some guests who are only her own.

"Miss Julia, although the environment is beautiful and the food is delicious, shouldn't we go to the Fernandez manor first, and pay a visit to the head of the family?"

"Just call me sister. After all, we all have Fernandez in our veins. Julia corrected Phil's title, a very indifferent demeanor and tone, but inadvertently revealing a sense of intimacy and naturalness that seemed to come from the bone marrow. This is what she does best when it comes to interacting with people, especially men, and she can bring out her amazing charm to 200 percent in such situations.

"All right, Julia...... Sister..."The blonde young man was indeed slightly embarrassed and shy by this sudden intimacy, which seemed to make his otherwise flawless appearance a little more youthful, but in the eyes of many experienced women, it was more attractive to be full of life and youth, which could make their hearts that had gradually become decayed and numb feel a little more of the original vitality.

Julia certainly deserves the comment 'experienced', but she easily hides her emotions and states lightly: "Count Pete is the current principal of the Fernandez family in Oroyosta, but we should have a good conversation before meeting him." You probably don't know how complicated it can be in a huge family that has been with the Arcane Empire for hundreds of years. ”

"Ahh I really don't know much about this......" There was an inexplicable glint in Phil's eyes, and he seemed to be a little excited. "Will they question my bloodline?"

"You can rest assured of that. Just looking at your brilliant blonde hair, many people, including me, will not doubt your noble bloodline. The Fernández family is one of the few families that has ever qualified to marry the Imperial Family, and in modern times, when the surname Orogreen has disappeared and most of the other families have declined, only the Fernández family is eligible to inherit the noble arcane bloodline. However, in order for the family to recognize you, the identification ceremony is still necessary, for an excellent young man like you, the Grand Duke will definitely use the arcane art of cause and effect order to judge, and it will definitely not go wrong. There are other, more specific questions that you need to pay attention to, such as who in the family you are going to follow. After all, the family is too big, and there are too many people in it, so of course there will be some different differences between different people, can you understand when I say this?"

“... I get it, Sister Julia. Phil nodded.

"The first thing you have to decide is, what do you want? The Fernández family has a lot, but I think there must be some that you want the most. ”

"What I wanted was very simple, it was just a wish to fulfill my mother. Phil smiled.

"Oh, then I'd like to hear your story. That must be interesting. Julia looked interested, and leaned comfortably back in the armchair, which was a shaped sponge tucked under the lambskin, and sat on it as comfortably as if she were sitting on the clouds, and her position was like a goddess in the clouds showing off her perfect body.
