Bang!

The double-barreled shotgun roared.

The gunpowder in the seamless steel pipe was fully burned, turning into terrifying kinetic energy, pushing the iron and lead bullets forward.

Not far away in the reeds.

Colorful feathers fluttered, and a mallard duck fell.

"Wow!"

The black hound, with a thin waist, immediately pounced and snatched the prey back.

"Well done, dog!"

Fang Xian dismounted and touched the hound's head.

"The dog is well trained...... It's very spiritual...... Where did you buy it? ”

Nearby, a handsome girl dressed in a hunter's suit and deerskin boots asked.

She is Ness Morelenfeld, a noble daughter who is also on the invitation for this hunt.

"Old Jack's Ranch...... Said to be a descendant of the Northern Sorenyas ......"

Fang Xian rubbed the dog's head and replied casually.

He looked not far away, and the other noble men and women had set up camp with the help of grooms and servants, as if they were preparing for a picnic.

Pete is in the center and can occasionally be heard with a hearty laugh.

He didn't seem to smile so happily in a long time, presumably because the pressure of the long time had been released.

"By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet."

Niss led the horse and walked beside Fang Xian, and suddenly smiled: "I remember you when you were a child, you are not such a character......

"Six years of study, entering the mysterious world, there will always be a little change, right?" Fang Xian asked rhetorically.

"That's true...... Since that investment, the Roland family has been in decline, and my father has made a bet that your family will not be able to afford the normal interpersonal expenses in ten years, and will become a down-and-out aristocrat...... However, everything is fine. ”

Ness is not shy about talking about these things, it seems that because she has a good relationship with the original Daniel, is a playmate when she was a child, and the news of the Roland family's wealth has spread.

"This is my father's foresight......"

Fang Xian replied very humbly.

"yes...... Most of this kind of private investment is lost, and those middle class will even go bankrupt as a result...... Because they don't have the awareness and don't want to spend a high price to go to an official notary office to notarize...... Of course, if they persist, the scammers will most likely give up ......"

Ness added: "Only we nobles will realize the importance of normalizing and acting according to the rules. ”

What does this seem to imply to me? ’

Fang Xian silently complained in his heart: 'Isn't the sincere friendship of childhood worth the price of growing up? ’

He laughed dryly twice and put the shotgun on his shoulder: "There is no prey, let's go back, Pete is in a hurry......"

In the camp.

A fawn has been skinned and placed on the grill to rotate slowly.

Fang Xian picked up a drink and came to Pete's side: "How do you feel?" ”

"Great! I mean...... I haven't felt that enthusiasm since that investment, you know? Three ladies have already extended invitations to me. ”

Pete's face turned red and he lowered his voice.

'No wonder your wife wants to go back to her parents' house......

Fang Xian glanced at Pete with disdain: "Lisa has already returned......"

"I know, I know, I'm just a little excited......" Pete scratched his head embarrassedly, and then his expression became a little distressed: "Actually...... I don't like the feeling of being a nouveau riche, you know, the aristocracy values history, tradition, subtlety, low-key...... The real nobles don't know how to laugh at us at this time, as for them! ”

He looked at the young men and women present, and his voice became lower: "The Morenfil family's private property has been losing money year after year, it is said that they have been selling real estate, the Bogin family's factory has exceeded the pollution standard and has been shut down for rectification, and the Aisha family, their ranch has been used as a nest by a group of underground worms, and the losses are heavy...... We are all nobles who are glamorous on the surface and have a bad debt in secret......"

'Why are you so sad?' ’

Fang Xian rolled his eyes and comforted, "Everything will be fine......"

"yes...... In addition to this, there are the troubles that come with it, such as...... Father didn't know where to come out of an illegitimate child or something......" Pete said with a shrug of his shoulders.

Fang Xian was glad that he didn't drink water, otherwise he sprayed directly: "You know? ”

"Isn't it normal for nobles to live a corrupt life when they are young, or to have several mistresses?" Pete looked at Fang Xian in surprise, as if he thought he was making a fuss.

This means that if you haven't been too poor in the past few years, how many lovers are you going to find? All right...... Maybe there already is? ’

Fang Xian had an expression of 'your circle is really messy' and 'I don't understand', and retreated in defeat, going to the campfire to cut a piece of venison.

"We also prepared a coastal-style soup that only needed a little more water...... Hank, where is Hank who fetches water? Ness smiled and stirred the iron pot in front of her, and suddenly asked.

Hank...... He's been walking for a long time, maybe it's because the scenery is too beautiful to stop and watch, right? ”

Several men glanced at each other, revealing expressions that they all understood.

"He's coming......"

Ness glanced at Hank and saw Hank coming from the direction of the stream, and couldn't help but raise her hand to greet, "Where's the kettle?" ”

Hank, who came out of the forest, was a man of medium stature with good facial features, dressed in the clothes of a groom.

At this time, with a strange smile on his face, he suddenly stopped, and his dead gray eyes looked at everyone present one by one.

Immediately, his clothes quickly rotted, revealing the flesh on his body.

Pieces of flesh and blood fell, followed by bones and entrails......

The corpses scattered all over the place quickly melted, turning into a puddle of black and red liquid that emitted a foul odor.

It seemed that his whole person had been corroded in an instant.

"Ahh

The girl's screams cut through the silence of the camp.

The horses snorted uneasily, and the hounds did not dare to come forward, but barked in a frenzy in the direction where Hank had come, as if there was an unsurpassed danger there.

"It's mysterious**!"

Ness's face was ugly: "We met a mysterious **! ”

In this world, the existence of transcendent beings is made public, and the people know the existence of mysterious people, and they also know some of the most basic mysterious knowledge.

Like what...... The best way for ordinary people to encounter mysteries** is to escape, otherwise, there is a great possibility of encountering terrible dangers!

"Bodyguard!"

Several nobles hurriedly tried to flee on horseback, and called for their guards.

Those who can become aristocratic guards are naturally transcendent, capable of dealing with ordinary mysteries**!

But the next moment, several hounds whimpered and fell to the ground, quickly decomposing, and the terrible smell of corpses continued to overflow.

The face of one of the bodyguards standing in the front suddenly stiffened, and he turned to look at the noble men and women, and his body began to rot.

He's dead!
