133. Disillusioned
Because of Klee's sudden cut, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became a little awkward, and several girls didn't know what to say to break the deadlock for a while.
Only Luo Er, who was quite calm, was still poking his daughter's soft face with his fingers, and he didn't understand the air at all.
Fortunately, Anya was there, and she spoke in time:
"Ah yes, next week is Victory Day, and there will be a lot of lively celebrations, do you have anything to look at?"
As soon as they heard that they could eat, drink and have fun, several people present, including Rohr, cheered up.
"It seems that I am very lucky, I came here this time, just in time for such a lively festival."
Jeanne said, thinking wildly in her head again.
When the time comes, call the teacher and go to an art exhibition or concert together, right? This should be the noble enjoyment that an empire should have......
The teacher would say yes, right? If he refuses, he will be seriously coquettish, and he should agree, right?
But what should I dress up like then? The beautiful clothes on this side of the empire are so expensive......
Will passers-by mistake it for a teacher's couple or something? In that case, I'll ......
Although her thoughts are not very coherent, and there are still a lot of ideas, it does not prevent her from thinking very intently, thinking about it, a blush unconsciously climbed up her cheeks.
And Oriana next to him followed up and said:
"The festival in the city has always been like that, except for the large number of people, there is nothing new, and it is very noisy and ......."
"I think it's better to go out for a picnic, and it's more fun to find a secluded suburb and roll on the grass than to go to those celebrations."
"But Miss Jeanne and Her Royal Highness Anya have to participate in various activities because of their status, right? There was no way, so the three of us had to go. β
With that, she looked at Rohr with a blank eye, expecting him to agree.
As a result, before Rohr could speak, Klee preemptively said:
"It's not fun at all to have a picnic, teacher, let's stay in the city and participate in the celebration, right?"
For a child like her, who grew up in the mountains, picnics are as unappealing as everyday life.
Although Klee rejected Oriona's proposal, the other party was not angry, but snickered with joy.
Listening to the meaning of Xiao Klee's words, she deliberately used the word 'we', which means that the three of us are together! It's like a family!
In fact, it doesn't matter whether you go to a picnic or not, as long as the family is neat and tidy, and don't be harassed by foreign goblins.
In this case, we can play around together during the day, and when it is night, we will put little Klee to sleep first, and then I can ......
Hee-hee......
Orianna couldn't help but make up a series of things that adults would do at night, and her pretty face couldn't help but blush slightly.
Rohr looked a little puzzled.
Why is your face red again?
Sure enough, women are all strange creatures, except for my precious daughter.
But one thing to say, the way they blush is quite cute......
Anya, who had been silently observing and secretly sensing that the atmosphere was beginning to develop in a subtle direction again, quickly cut in again and said:
"By the way, this year's celebration will hold the triennial 'National Sword Fighting Competition', and Uncle Rohr and Klee are both very good at swordsmanship, do you want to participate? I can sign you up. β
As soon as they heard the swordsmanship, the father and daughter suddenly came to their senses, their eyes widened in unison, and they almost agreed casually.
But he immediately calmed down and asked in unison:
"What kind of competition is this? Why haven't you heard of it before? β
Anya just opened her mouth and was about to answer, but Oriana on the side preemptively said:
"Actually, this is a traditional celebration that takes place every three years, when swordsmen from all over the country compete for the best, and the winners will receive huge prizes and various generous benefits."
"Because it's a pure swordsmanship competition, you can't use extraordinary strength and holy relics, you can only use training wooden swords, which is a simple competition of skills."
"The competition will be divided into three groups according to the age group of the players, namely the junior group, the youth group and the adult group, with the age of 16 years old and 25 years old."
She answered in detail, and finally said with a little pride:
"To be honest, I only won the championship in the youth category a few years ago, and I won a lot of rewards!"
Anya next to her couldn't help but be stunned, she couldn't control herself for a while, and blurted out:
"Huh? That's not ......"
Unfortunately, before she could finish her sentence, she saw Oriana suddenly turn her head and smile extremely kindly at herself.
Anya knew that if she continued to speak, maybe this smile would be the last scene she would see in her life.
In fact, Oriana is not lying, she is indeed quite accomplished in swordsmanship, and she really won the junior championship of the national sword fighting competition, and she also took this opportunity to gradually become famous in the empire.
But that was the old yellow calendar a few decades ago.
So Anya can't tell the truth.
And the father and daughter didn't care about this small detail, the father and daughter were silently looking at each other, making eye contact with each other's opinions.
Klee tilted her head slightly, blinking her burgundy eyes quickly, her long eyelashes up and down like a brush.
But Rohr was unmoved, pursed his lips and fell into thought, his right hand lightly tapping the back of his left hand.
Finally, he shook his head and said:
"Otherwise, forget it, right?"
He is mainly a little weak and afraid of losing.
After all, his image in his daughter's mind has always been that strong, kind, gentle, considerate, elegant, easy-going, humble, low-key, erudite, and versatile father figure, which can be called the perfect old father.
With the unparalleled strength and extraordinary ability to enter the sainthood, it is a legend that will surely last forever, if you are willing to come to the empire to serve, at least you must be a commander of the Chinese army.
He also bears a series of cool and heavy titles such as the Peerless Sword Ghost, the Doudi Tianzun, the King of Demons, and the Lord of Mystery.
Although he has not lost when he was convincing people in the village; I came out and saw the market, and I didn't meet a strong person who was too exaggerated......
If you go to the ring and accidentally lose the game, or even be beaten up by other good players and strong players......
Isn't it a collapse of human design?
To be on the safe side, it's better not to participate, presumably in a competition of this nature, the honor is greater than the actual reward, and the bonus should not be very high?
As he was thinking, he heard Jeanne from the countryside ask, like a curious baby:
"If I win in the end, how much will I win?"
But she didn't ask about Oriana, who had won the championship, but Anya.
"Well...... Although the prize money is increasing every year, there is not much ......."
Anya was a little embarrassed, and seemed to be a little embarrassed to say, and reported a number:
"It's just over a million Easter, right?"
Everyone else present except Oriana was stunned.
One Million Easter ......
It was as if he saw stacks of banknotes falling like snowflakes in front of his eyes, smashing on his head so hard that his eyes were full of stars.
But it's not enough! A little more!
Needless to say, Jeanne converted this money into the currency of the Valle of Plenty, which could buy several carts of armor and guns!
It was as if she saw armor and muskets fall like a landslide, smashing on top of her head, and tears flowed from her eyes.
But it's not enough! Be a little harder!
Even Klee, who currently earns more than one million a year, is hungry for this money.
It was as if she saw beautiful little dresses falling like snow and putting them on herself, turning herself into the most beautiful girl in the empire.
But it's not enough! Prettier!
Oriana and Anya looked at each other, and the two reached some kind of consensus in eye contact:
Isn't that a small amount of money at the level of pocket money?
Suddenly you feel like you can't communicate with them?
It was Luo Er who came back to his senses first, and hurriedly asked:
"Miss Anya, please sign me up!"
Anya was slightly stunned, first nodded subconsciously, and then asked:
"I would like to take the liberty of asking, Uncle Rohr, how old are you this year?"
The question seemed very interesting, and Jeanne and Orianna secretly sharpened their ears, expecting Rohr's answer.
"It's not a secret, the old man is forty and two this year."
Rohr replied truthfully, and reached out to twist the few stubbles on his chin, and asked with a smile:
"Hehe, didn't expect that, right? Don't you see it? I can't believe I'm so old, right? β
In fact, by objective standards, Rohr's face really doesn't look as old as his forties, but more like his early thirties, much younger than those mobile gamers on the planet.
The hairline is very healthy, much stronger than the programmers on the planet, not taking a step back, holding the ground.
This is mainly because he usually exercises regularly, his body is well maintained, and then he has no worries about food and clothing, no psychological burden and pressure, and he is happy every day, so he naturally does not look old.
As soon as Klee in her arms heard this, she quickly took off the small leather shoes on her feet, revealing her little feet in white stockings, and then stepped on Rohr's thighs, stretched out her little hand and pinched her father's face, and said with pride and pride:
"Daddy is forever young!"
After that, he also took the opportunity to incense it vigorously on Rohr's face.
When Jeanne and Orianna heard this answer, an idea popped up in their hearts:
Is he only 42 years old?
Quite a little younger than expected?
Can't be so young, right?
Sure enough, men are all big pigs' trotters, and they are the best at deceiving people......
Both of them have some awareness of Rohr's strength, but they don't refuse to accept common sense like Klee.
In Jeanne's mind, she had secretly speculated that Rohr's age should be around 200 years old.
Because the legend of the Gray King dates back to more than 80 years ago, considering that the Gray King is not so awesome at birth, it will take at least 100 years to become as strong as him, which makes the legendary scholars tremble.
She felt that her reasoning was well-founded and convincing.
And at this age, in fact, it is not an obstacle, Jeanne also learned through her former teacher Macmillan that the appearance of a high-ranking strong person will not get old after reaching a certain level.
For example, the miracle illusionist, Lord Trenwell, looked like he was in his 40s until he was in the coffin.
And according to folk rumors, on his 200th birthday, he also married his 20th wife, a beautiful little girl who was nearly 16 years old.
Therefore, the teacher will definitely be able to maintain his current handsome, mature, profound, and slightly bohemian appearance for a long, long time, and maybe he will become an old woman, and he will not change.
But hopefully he won't marry as many wives as Lord Trenwell did......
In the opinion of the Sage of Fire, Oriana, she thinks that Rohr should be around 160 years old, and she is still a young and beautiful little girl compared to him.
Because she is a ninth-order powerhouse, she has a deeper understanding of the transcendent realm and age issues than Jeanne, so Oriana is confident that her estimation of Raul's age will definitely be eight or nine.
So she was basically sure that Rohr was lying.
Hehe, man......
If Rohr was really only 42 years old, she would be a little embarrassed again.
My ideal other half should be older and more mature, so that you can take good care of yourself and take care of yourself.
Although Oriona had heard from other women that young people would be more sexually happy, she hadn't experienced it and didn't care too much about it.
As a result, only Anya who had never seen Rohr make a move believed his words and echoed his words:
"Really? I really didn't expect Uncle Rohr to be in his 40s. β
She couldn't help but think of her father, although he was only ten years older than Rohr, and when he was the Speaker of the Parliament, he was also known as the "Rising Star of Imperial Politics", "the Youngest Speaker", "New Hope in Politics" or something, and was often attacked by political opponents for being too young and naΓ―ve.
But in fact, my father is almost the same as an old man in his 60s.
is completely incomparable to a father like Rohr, who can make her peek twice from time to time and her heart beat slightly faster.
Again, the spell failed.
But she suddenly remembered something, showed a very embarrassed expression, and said slightly apologetically:
"Ah...... What about this...... I'm sorry Uncle Rohr, I almost forgot one thing before, your situation is a bit troublesome......"
"Because there were some unfortunate accidents in the last competition, new regulations were temporarily introduced this year, and the maximum age can only be 40 years old."
Orianna also remembered this, and took over:
"I also remember the incident, a certain nobleman in his 70s forcibly appeared on stage, but he suddenly had a heart attack, and it seemed to be quite a big fuss at the time, and it made headlines."
When Luo Er heard this, he was a little confused.
The banknotes that fell like snowflakes in front of him really turned into snowflakes, and he himself became a poor old man shivering in the heavy snow and cold wind.
--------
I'm very sorry, because I went out early in the morning and was busy all day, and I went back to bed and said that I would rest, but I accidentally fell asleep......
I'm really embarrassed.
I hope you will forgive me.
