Chapter 109: Leicester Manor
Xiao Yao and Yin Que followed Sidney to the tree, and Yin Que looked up at the tree curiously.
"Ahem~~ This tree was planted when I was young, but I didn't expect it to grow so tall now." Cardinal Yoyo said.
Xiao Yao and Yin Que didn't speak, and Bishop Sidney on the side opened his mouth to introduce the cardinal, "Your Excellency, these two are cultivators from the East, Xiao Yao and Yin Que. Bishop Sidney pointed to the two.
"Oh! Welcome to London! I am the Cardinal of the Holy See in England and my name is Santos. The cardinal shook hands with each of them.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Excellency the Archbishop!" Xiao Yao smiled.
"Two of you, please." Bishop Sidney led the group to a meadow with tables, chairs, and freshly brewed black tea.
A few people sat down, and Archbishop Santos motioned for Xiao Yao and Yin Que to sit down and have a cup of tea with him, but Xiao Yao couldn't shirk it and had to agree.
"Are you two here to visit London?" Archbishop Santos said with a sip of tea.
Xiao Yao glanced at the cardinal archbishop in front of him, and sure enough, the binding force of the contract is still very high, after all, if it is violated, it will provoke a big war among cultivators, and no one wants to see that kind of situation.
"No, we're here to find someone, to find a friend, who came here many years ago." Xiao Yao said.
"Well, in that case, do you need my help with something?" Archbishop Santos put down his teacup.
"Not for now, Your Excellency the Archbishop." Xiao Yao waved his hand.
"Well, well, then I won't keep the two, I hope the two of you have fun in London!" Archbishop Santos said.
The two nodded, and walked out of the church under the leadership of Bishop Sidney.
"Damn, this old man, he drove us out without a sip of tea, what kind of humanity is this!" Yin Que complained.
"Okay, they've always been like this, don't you know what the kangaroo master used to be like, and there's a difference between him and this Santos? People just don't know us well, and Catholicism is more exclusive of Eastern cultivators. Xiao Yao comforted Yin Que.
Catholicism was more repulsive to foreign cultivators in the past, and in the Middle Ages, there were several crusades, although nominally to recapture the holy city and eradicate the infidels, but in fact they plundered everywhere in order to expand their territory, and suppressed scientists and women, how many innocent people were burned in the name of infidels, how many scientists and artists were brutally killed, how many women were hanged as witches because of their independence of thought, and even the consent of the Holy See was required to become a king.
"That's different, although the kangaroo's master is a Catholic, but the kangaroo is practicing the Dao method with us, I believe he will not join any Holy See." Yin Que said with an oath.
"Well, I agree with this, his master went to us because he couldn't get used to the Holy See's methods." Xiao Yao nodded.
The two chatted and walked unconsciously to the side of the road, Roy had been waiting for a long time, he got a car out of nowhere, the three of them got into the car and the driver started the car and left the church.
About half an hour later, the car came to a street and stopped in front of a small four-story building, which was white as a whole, typical European style.
"Mr. Xiao, Mr. Yin, this is the residence that Miss has prepared for the two of you, please come with me." Several people got out of the car, and Xiao Yao and Yin Que followed Roy into the small building.
"Mr. Xiao, Mr. Yin, your room is on the second floor." Roy said.
As soon as the three of them entered the gate, an old man who looked like a housekeeper immediately stepped forward, and Roy introduced Xiao Yao and Yin Que to him, and then followed the housekeeper upstairs.
The butler-like person is named Mike, who is the administrator here, responsible for some daily things, and the three of them came to the room, Xiao Yao opened the door with the silver key before, and then was stunned.
The luxury of the room far exceeded Xiao Yao and Yin Que's imagination, it was simply magnificent, this was probably the most luxurious room the two had ever stayed in.
"Mr. Xiao, Mr. Yin, this building is Miss's property, you can rest assured that you can move in." Roy leaned his hand against the door.
Xiao Yao and Yin Que nodded stunnedly, and then Roy spoke again, "Tomorrow, my young lady wants to meet the two, and I will come to pick you up at ten o'clock in the morning." ”
The two nodded blankly again, and then Roy said goodbye and turned to leave.
"Two gentlemen, your luggage is already in the room, if you need anything, you can find me, I will be downstairs, there is a phone in the room to call the first floor, I will come up immediately." Mike, the administrator, bowed and went downstairs as well.
The two of them looked around the room for a while, "It's so luxurious for me to go." Yin Que fell into the sofa and drank all the red wine in his hand, "It's really a kennel compared to the place where I lived before." ”
"If you don't love it, don't live there, who is the kennel." Xiao Yao kicked Yin Que, and he was lying on the deerskin recliner with his eyes half-closed.
"No wonder even the keys are silver, who do you say this woman is, how can she know us? Do you know our domestic address? Yin Que asked.
"Won't you know tomorrow? We still have to find the kangaroo first, and let's not forget our purpose. Xiao Yao snorted.
"I always feel that this woman has something to do with kangaroos." Yin Que changed his comfortable posture and said.
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, Mike, the administrator, knocked on the door of Xiao Yao and Yin Que.
"Two gentlemen, breakfast is ready." Mike was followed by two men, each holding a silver platter with a hearty English breakfast in it.
Yin Que let go of the door, and the two left with Mike after putting down breakfast, and Xiao Yao also happened to come out of the bathroom.
"Oh? Breakfast was delivered, very intimate! Xiao Yao said while wiping his wet hair.
"Let's see what it tastes like." Yin Que sat down and picked up a sandwich in his hand.
Just after ten o'clock, there was a knock on the door, and Roy stood at the door, "Mr. Xiao, Mr. Yin should go." ”
Xiao Yao and Yin Que were already ready in the room, so they followed Roy downstairs into the car, and the driver started the car and drove away.
About an hour later, the two came to a manor, after seeing this manor, Xiao Yao and Yin Que immediately thought of a British drama, Downton Abbey, here is more similar to Downton Abbey, the car to the manor Cairoy introduced "Leicester Manor was first built in 1917, built by the first Duke of Leicester, the entire manor covers an area of 35,000 acres, the manor has hunting grounds, horse farms and a golf course, the manor has a total of 112 rooms, with more than 200 servant gardeners, The manor has been carefully furnished by successive dukes, and can be described as exquisite and elegant......" Roy said proudly.
The scenery along the way can be described as exquisite, there is garden design everywhere, and there is a maze of roses, the car is parked in front of a five-storey building, this building alone can be called a work of art, there are well-designed sculptures everywhere, there is actually a minaret on the roof, the gray and yellow walls are matched with well-designed sculptures, this manor seems very historical.
There is a relief in the shape of a lion's head on each of the two gates, and there are two knockers in the mouth, Roy stepped forward and slowly pushed the door open, and the inside of the door was like a palace, a wide curved staircase on the right came into view, the handrails of the staircase were all kinds of sculptures, exquisite cashmere carpets were spread on the steps, and a beautiful woman like a flower stood on the stairs.
"Roy, are they Xiao Yao and Yin Que?" The beautiful girl said with a flat expression.
"Yes, Miss, this is Mr. Xiao, and this is Mr. Yin." Roy said, bowing down.
"Well, let them sit down for a while, and I'll go change my clothes." The girl spoke again. ……
