Chapter 415: Weird
Skirting the palm groves, William and Bob the fisherman were confronted not by the villa he said, but by a magnificent palace.
A richly dressed woman with seven or eight rings on her ten fingers was standing at the entrance of the palace, looking up at the imposing building.
Although William was a little surprised by Bob's modesty and said that the palace was a villa, it was not obvious that Bob next to William was stunned and surprised, and he couldn't speak when he opened his mouth.
This strange look made William's heart move, "Something seems wrong." ”
He secretly kept an eye on it, the scene that often appears in fairy tales is the palace, in the palace this important occasion, many important things have happened, maybe he will be directly involved in a fairy tale as soon as he comes, which is a good thing for William, saving a lot of effort to search.
At this moment, the richly dressed woman also heard Bob's footsteps and turned around.
The woman's face was also wrinkled, and she had a look of suffering, and her temperament was somewhat out of step with the clothes on her body.
Like Bob next to William.
William thought for a moment and found a word in his head to describe them - nouveau riche!
The richly dressed woman saw Bob and excitedly ran over and took the fisherman's hand, "Dear Bob, why are you back so late?" Come and see the palace! Our Palace! A palace that belongs to us! ”
The Magic Mirror was translated word for word to William.
Bob also looked very happy when he heard his wife's words, but he still remembered William's existence, smiled awkwardly at William, and then said, "Will, let me introduce you, this is my wife, Mary Alecda!" ”
"Mary, this is my guest, his name is Will, and he is a traveler!" Bob turned to his wife.
When Bob's wife Mary heard this, she glanced at William scrutinically, with a hint of arrogance in her eyes, her chin raised slightly, and a "hmm" in her mouth indicated that she knew.
Bob felt that it was a bit rude to do this, but he was weak-tempered and kind-hearted, and he didn't dare to say anything serious to his wife, so he could only look at William embarrassedly, with apologies in his eyes.
William nodded lightly in understanding.
Bob looked at his wife and William with a hint of gratitude, and then said to his wife and William, "Mary, let's take our Mr. Traveler on a journey through our palace." ”
"Good!" The arrogant old woman thought for a second, nodded, and agreed.
Bob exhaled secretly, took his wife's rough hand, and walked towards the palace.
William followed behind them unhurriedly, and the magic mirror naturally translated their words to William, but the conversation between them, no matter how they listened, there was an awkward meaning!
It's just that for a moment, William couldn't find anything wrong.
He thought for a moment and whispered to the Magic Mirror, "Magic Mirror, probe this couple, as well as this palace, and the surrounding environment, to see if anything is wrong?" ”
"Yes, master!" The magic mirror responded, and an invisible wave spread out in all directions.
After a while, the magic mirror was detected, and he said to William, "Master, everything is normal!" There is nothing unusual in the palace, the couple is also an ordinary person, and the surrounding environment is also normal! ”
"Did I think too much?" William thought silently as he followed the "nouveau riche couple" towards the palace.
The palace is paved with fine marble, and the walls around it are also richly painted, and the whole space is so spacious and bright that it gives people a feeling of golden splendor.
Inside the palace, there were two groups of servants in uniform who, as soon as they saw Bob and Mary, said in unison, "Welcome home, Lady Mary, Mr. Bob!" ”
Both Bob and Mary had startled looks on their faces at first, but soon Mary, the proud woman, was the first to recover, "You guys...... Forget it, let's take a look at the palace first! ”
"Yes, Lady Mary!" The servants, dressed in uniform uniforms, replied respectfully.
A servant with the temperament of a butler walked in front and introduced Bob and Mary, the "nouveau riche couple", while the other servants followed closely behind them, waiting for the couple's orders.
"Huh, why is it so weird?" William's surprise grew stronger and stronger, and as he listened to the words translated by the magic mirror, he felt more and more strange about the couple Bob and Mary!
"Judging by their performance all the way, it seems that they have never been to this palace before?"
"Aren't they the owners of this palace, but doves occupying the magpie's nest?"
"It's not! The servants here are so familiar with the two of them that they can be named! ”
"That's weird!"
William was puzzled, so he had to cheer up and follow them all the way.
They continued along the soft and delicate red carpet, and every room they passed was richly decorated, with large golden chandeliers and gilded tables and chairs.
A large dining table that seats twelve people sits in the center of the dining room, and this table is filled with delicacies from the mountains and seas, and Bob and Mary are watching their mouths water.
Bob asked the butler-type servant at the front in an inquiring tone, "Can we all eat these?" ”
The butler smiled kindly and said softly, "Mr. Bob, the entire palace is the property of you and Lady Mary, and all the things in the palace are your property, and you can dispose of them at will, including us!" You and Lady Mary, of course, can eat as much as you like! In fact, it's time to dine, sir, ma'am, do you want to eat some? ”
"Then eat some." Bob was still hesitating, but his wife, Mary, was very calm.
"Okay!"
Immediately a servant pulled out a chair for Mary to sit down, and Bob paused and sat down with him.
William was still standing there, and the kind Bob immediately beckoned William, "Will, come with us for a bite to eat, are you hungry?" How about a sweet roast chicken? ”
Bob's wife waited for her husband to glance at her with some dissatisfaction, but didn't say much, her energy was now on it.
The magic mirror had already detected these delicacies, and William thought for a moment, then pulled out a chair and sat down.
After eating, Mary looked excited, and took Bob and walked to the rest of the palace.
William also silently followed them, and the more he looked at the scene in front of him, the more he felt that something was wrong, but he just couldn't see the problem.
They came to the back of the palace.
The view here is particularly open, with the rolling mountains in the distance.
At the foot of the mountain is a large grassland.
The grasslands are also home to valuable horses and cattle.
The servant told her that these were the property of the palace, that they were all the property of Bob and Mary, and Mary was very happy to hear this.
Bob was also excited.
From far to near, his eyes fell on the large garden in front of him.
The garden is filled with colorful flowers and fruitful precious fruit trees, which is simply a fairyland on earth, which is breathtaking.
Bob's wife, Mary, smiled and narrowed her eyes and asked Bob, "Is it pretty?" ”
