Chapter Sixty-Four: General Gu Zhan
[I'm sorry, adventurers, but the Shogun wants to meet you.] γ
Just as Jade opened the gate and was about to leave here, a knight wearing the same armor as Wen Yang appeared at the door and stopped them.
[But we're going to dinner now......]
[Don't worry, the general has already ordered someone to prepare dinner, and please follow me.] γ
In desperation, several people had to follow the knight into a carriage that looked very luxurious, and Jade sat on the sofa of the carriage after getting into the carriage.
[It's so powerful, even there is a sofa in the carriage.] γ
She reached out and pressed the soft couch beneath her.
[After all, it is a rich family's carriage......]
Liu Xianyu is not very interested in the decoration inside the carriage, after all, no matter how rich he is, he can't sit comfortably in a car.
[Our family is also rich and powerful in the country of the west, but this kind of carriage is generally only used by his own family, and this general is probably more powerful than we think. γ
Ekatelis surveyed the carriage and said.
[Tachibana smells food.] γ
Tang Tang, who had been sitting honestly next to Liu Xianyu, cocked his little nose and smelled the smell of other people's cooking outside the window.
[Be patient, Tachibana, after all, it's better not to offend the general of the East Country, not to mention that the general must have prepared a lot of delicious things for us. γ
Liu Xianyu touched Tangerine's head and said comfortingly.
γGeneral...... I don't know why I always feel like I've seen the coat of arms on this carriage anywhere else? γ
Anaki on the side held her chin and muttered quietly.
[Did you just say something?] γ
Liu Xianyu glanced at Anaqi.
[No...... Nothing, don't look at me like that! γ
Anaki hugged the shield in her arms and twisted it.
Liu Xianyu, who was too lazy to cooperate with her, turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window, and soon the carriage that arrived at the destination stopped in front of a luxurious manor.
A well-dressed middle-aged man took Liu Xianyu and the five people through the house to a wide hall, the decoration of the hall was magnificent, and a long sword was hung every few meters on both sides, this unique decoration attracted Liu Xianyu's attention, he deliberately took a look, these weapons seemed to have been used, and there were still traces on them.
[The quality of these weapons is not bad, at least better than the one on the little priest.] γ
[Surprise me!] Are you alive again? γ
The system, which had been quiet for a long time, suddenly said a word, which startled Liu Xianyu.
[You're just dead.,It's just that I've recently encountered a little problem with the operation of the system.,The part responsible for issuing tasks has had some problems since I met the knife man that day.,It wasn't fixed until just now.] γ
[You're too unreliable, no wonder you haven't had a mission in the past two days. γ
Liu Xianyu thought that he didn't meet the conditions for triggering the task, so he didn't have a task for the past two days, but it turned out that there was a problem with the unreliable system.
[Isn't it already repaired?,It just so happens that you haven't encountered any major incidents.,The protagonist points at what time of day missed it.] γ
Liu Xianyu followed the housekeeper to a grand hall while talking to the system, and there was a large table in the hall, which was filled with all kinds of food, and another middle-aged man with a big beard was sitting at one end of the table talking to Wen Yang.
Welcome, adventurers. γ
The man saw Liu Xianyu and his party walking in under the leadership of the housekeeper and stood up happily.
[I am the master here, General Guzhan. γ
[Hello, General Gu Zhan. γ
Liu Xianyu and the others bowed to the bearded general.
[No need to be polite, you are all my nephew's saviors, don't be so restrained. γ
As he spoke, the man raised the glass in his hand and took a sip.
[Knight Wenyang turned out to be your nephew, I really didn't expect it, he didn't tell us before that he had such a great relative. γ
Jade said with a stammering expression.
[Haha, my nephew is good everywhere is a tendon in his head, this time he encountered danger thanks to you, taste the special food of our imperial capital! ] @γ
The bearded general patted Wen Yang on the shoulder hard, it didn't look like an ordinary middle-aged uncle at all, speaking of which, Liu Xianyu also remembered it, no wonder Anaqi felt that the coat of arms on the carriage was very familiar, wasn't that the pattern on the ring where Wen Yang made a deposit for them.
When the master spoke, Liu Xianyu and his party were no longer restrained, they were already hungry and began to taste the food in front of them, I have to say that the benefits brought by the right are enviable, Liu Xianyu ate a lot of ingredients in these foods that he had only seen in the Spirit Clan Palace, and even the tableware in front of him were two sets, one was the chopsticks commonly used by the people of the East Kingdom, and the other was knives and forks.
γIt's delicious!γ γ
Jade chewed the food in her mouth with a fascinated expression, Tangerine also squinted her eyes like her, and there was spice hanging on the side of her small mouth, as for Anaqi's appearance, it was not much better, only Ikatriis and Liu Xianyu still maintained an elegant posture and used knives and forks, not because of their pretentious posture, but because of the habits they have developed over the years, once they sit on this formal occasion, the aristocratic education they have received since childhood will involuntarily reflect.
The general sitting at one end of the table squinted his eyes and looked at Liu Xianyu and his party quietly, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes when he saw Liu Xianyu and Ikatris's skillful and elegant postures.
(These two adventurers look like the children of a rich family, but Wen Yang once said that their strength should not be underestimated, could it be said that they are also from the upper class?) οΌ
The little surprise didn't make the general care, after all, he had seen a lot of high-ranking officials and wealthy families, and he regarded Liu Xianyu and Ikatris as declining nobles in the middle of the family.
At this time, the previous butler walked up from behind, bent down and said something in the general's ear, the general frowned slightly, then stood up and said to Liu Xianyu and the others:
[Let's enjoy this dinner, I still have some things to deal with, so let Wenyang relax here with you. γ
With that, the general patted Wen Yang on the shoulder and turned to leave.
[Don't worry about it, uncle has been very busy, let's just have fun.] γ
Wen Yang picked up the wine glass in his hand and said to Jade.
[It's okay, it's okay, the big guys are very busy, I understand. γ
Jade took a sip of the wine glass absently, in fact, the general's departure made her breathe a sigh of relief, after all, she had never seen such a big official since she was a child, and she didn't dare to drink when the general was there before, for fear that she would drink too much and cause trouble, and now the general left her before she dared to start tasting the taste of wine.
[Come on, let's have a toast first!] γ
Without the general, Jade began to dominate the atmosphere on the table again, and everyone suddenly returned to their usual relaxed state, and even Wen Yang relaxed with them, and the atmosphere on the table became more lively for a while.
