The story of Krumi is not complicated, but at the age of nineteen, when he was at his youngest and most frivolous, he and his cousins set out to challenge 'authority' to prove their prowess in the spirit of the newborn calf's fearlessness of the tiger. They agreed to steal something from the luxurious carriage of the Minucha family, who came to inspect it proudly, but of course they didn't dare to steal it, but only showed it and then put it back.

By the way, it is the Minucha family that the Krumi family is loyal to, and it is no wonder that these young men have strange ideas when they see the elders of the kinship who are usually in awe of them softening their bodies. And the reason why this reception is particularly grand is that the Minucha family did not send an old man to visit in previous years, but it was the head of the family who came in person, and also brought the next head of the family who was almost determined: the little master. That is, this meeting is essentially similar to the ritual of showing the lion cubs to the beasts in the "The Lion King" movie.

In the process of transporting items, one of Klumi's cousins broke a very elaborate simplified music box, which is something that plays simple music for more than ten seconds by rotating a mechanical axis. Coincidentally, this thing was the most beloved thing of the little young master of the Minucha family, who was thirteen years old at the time.

The second year of secondary school can also be said to be the age when the instinct of 'food protection' is the most serious, and some small objects that belong to you are very important. And this little young master was still slightly arrogant, and when he found out about the damage, he immediately brought two maids who had little combat power to find him, and then he was beaten on the ground by a group of enraged seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys.

At this point, the matter is completely big.

The evening meeting banquet was directly divided into two parts, the internal interrogation assembly, and the external non-stop apology. When the hands of the two sides meet, they are completely dumbfounded. The little young master's blue nose and swollen face splashed and rolled, which drove a group of female relatives to be excited, demanding 'severe punishment of the murderer'. The cousin who took the lead in beating people and broke things, but he was the most talented and promising one in this generation to be promoted to the Eighth Ring, and it was the hope of the family to go further.

After some discussion, Klumi was pushed to the fore and was exiled indefinitely. At that time, the reason was to blame Klumi for being the oldest and not bringing his cousins well. And the rhetoric for the little young master is simpler, after all, this thing was pressed to the ground, and the first time they met, coupled with the panic caused by the flipping of the script, I didn't remember who took the lead.

After hearing this, the madman personality pointed to the living specimen that was no longer human, and asked, "This is the little young master back then?"

"Hmm. ”

"Time is a pig-killing knife, you said that he was crying and rolling in his mother's arms, it's really unimaginable. The madman laughed and poked his fingers at the bare musculature of the thing's cheek. "Hey buddy, don't pretend to be dead, what about the recording material here, do you have any feelings to talk about? regret or something like that, swearing is fine, or begging us to help you fulfill your last words, of course, it would be too boring to apologize to Krumi. ”

And the forty-year-old person who was mentioned to have forgotten things back then, and even now realized that his family was destroyed because of this long-forgotten thing, which is more complicated than the physical pain, and the feeling in his heart is more complicated and difficult to understand. However, the regret is getting less and less, especially after being tortured to the point of giving up hope, only the helplessness of being unlucky enough to meet the 'mad dog' remains.

Holding a grudge for more than 20 years and taking revenge with more than a dozen Qihuan is a complete small probability event in such a short-lived and slow-paced feudal society.

"Did you hurt his throat or ear?"

"Of course not, he screamed so loudly, you heard it. ”

"If you don't answer, you look down on me?" the madman got up and wanted to attack, but sat down again, "If you want to provoke me to die quickly, how can I be deceived by you if I am as witty as I am, hum, wait for me to confirm the progress of your work in your hometown, and then let your whole family meet each other." ”

It's a misunderstanding, it's a very tiring thing to be tortured, this unlucky guy just doesn't have the strength to speak.

......

Hellish aside, let's see what another unlucky guy with a mad personality is up to.

In Jindu City, the capital of the Green Flame Kingdom, in the newly erected portal, a noble young man walked out with a suitcase, wearing a slightly shabby aristocratic dress, with short dark blonde hair and a few pimples on his slightly long face. It was Fleming Gilson. He was followed by a mediocre-looking maid and a slightly older butler.

After a few nights of tossing and turning, the head of the family, who had lost face in front of his family, decided to do something to prove that he was not a fool, and after thinking about it, the goal was to bring greater benefits to the family, and the means was to do business, and the capital was to give away 'gadgets' with a few crazy personalities.

But before business can begin, there's one more important talent to woo: Ned. And how to convince this guy, who is at least 'smart' in Gilson's opinion, that he already has a draft and is full of confidence, not only can he be brought in, but he will also be grateful to Dade.

One master and two servants walked in the aristocratic area of Jindu City, and their rather shabby dress undoubtedly revealed the identity of the small nobles in the countryside. After only half a street, Gilson felt uncomfortable, and suddenly realized where the unexplained unpleasant feeling he had come from the last time he came to Clearwater City seven years ago: the eyes of the people around him.

Fortunately, after passing the competitive age and having just hit the iron plate, Gilson calmed down after only a few deep breaths, and decided to turn and leave the noble district as fast as possible, although he could avoid some contempt for a long time. However, when the sun set, the three of them stopped in front of a tavern called Barren Mountain in the artisan district, and Gilson, who was sweating profusely, was secretly scolding himself for saving face.

Dressed a little and pushing the door open, Gilson was suffocated by the mixed smell, and his only thought was that it smelled worse than the last time.

A tavern attendant customarily came up to greet him, but only halfway through his greeting, he exclaimed, "...... Young master, oh no, it's the head of the family. ”

"Well, it's me, the room is full?"

"Not full. ”

"Lead the way. ”

"Please follow me. The waiter took the salute and led the three of them into the inner courtyard and then to the guest room on the second floor.

The tavern was a four-family affair, divided equally, and the Baron Fleming family was one of them. And in essence, he doesn't expect to make a profit, but just arranges a foothold, first of all, he can save himself too embarrassed when he comes to Jindu City to do chores, and secondly, he won't be at a loss if there is anything going on in the kingdom.

Of course, there is no need to recruit additional manpower, and the distant relatives of the four families are more than enough.

After resting for a while to dissipate the hot sweat, Gilson called the tavern attendant who was busy before and after, and after confirming the kinship, he gave a few words of encouragement in the tone of the family leader's sympathy, and when he showed gratitude, he asked, "Ned, is Ned of the Klan family here?"

"Shopkeeper Ned has gone out today, and it seems that he wants to buy a tavern on another street. ”

"Oh, you should notify everyone about this kind of thing, right?" If the company wants to open a branch, of course, it must inform the shareholders.

"No, no, it's Ned's own money. ”

"I see. Gilson nodded, and at the same time secretly said in his heart: "This guy, sure enough, there are two hits. ’

After asking a few more questions about Ned's current situation, there was a sudden commotion in the lobby of the tavern in front of him, and as one of the proprietors, Gilson certainly couldn't sit idly by. Wipe the remaining hot sweat off her forehead, tell the maid to arrange her clothes, and take the tavern attendant and the old butler to the front hall to check on the situation.

It wasn't complicated, a wounded man rushed into the tavern and knocked over another group of guests, and the two sides started to fight after a few words, while the former was unsurprisingly outnumbered, and was beaten up with injuries.

In line with the principle of keeping a low profile, Gilson did not intervene rashly, and after asking about the usual handling methods, the identity of the five-ring fire magician was revealed, and the group of people who were still scolding themselves were merciful.

In the corner of this artisan district, the low-ring magician craftsman and a small number of ordinary relatives are mixed, and the deterrent power of a five-ring man in his twenties is completely sufficient.

The assailant did not say a word, leaving half of the compensation, although it was only a few dishes and chairs that were damaged, and the total price was less than one-third of the price of the meal, but it was also quite positive. As for the wounded who fell into a coma, Gilson scratched his head a little, but fortunately, the tavern attendant recognized that it was Ned's acquaintance, so he was not thrown out to die.

By the way, the wounded's face was blue and purple and crooked due to local swelling, so that he could still be recognized, and Gilson believed that he was really an acquaintance of the common face.

After dinner, Gilson finally waited for Ned to return.

It was a thin, thin man with a slightly long face, with slightly sunken eye sockets that were unusually large, a short head of about three millimeters, which was very different from the usual style of the nobles, and a finger-length scar above the ear chakra was very conspicuous, after all, there was a hair missing here.

As soon as they met, Gilson greeted him with a habitual warmth, and Ned looked surprised. And it wasn't until the hug that Gilson was reminded by the smell of alcohol on Ned that he was already a baron and the head of the family, and the other party was no longer a child king two years older than him. But when the hug ended, and Ned looked at him with such a genuine look, Gilson forgot the slightest bit of estrangement.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries and sat opposite each other in the corner of the tavern front hall. Ned first asked Gilson to mourn the change, and then congratulated the heir to the baron, apparently knowing about this. Of course, this is completely formulaic stuff, no offense or anything else. Gilson also replied formulaically and politely, and then asked Ned about the number of magic rings, and when he learned that he was also a five-ring, he gave a thumbs up and praised him from the bottom of his heart.

Let's get to the point.

"I'm here this time, and I want your help with something. ”

"Tell me about it. ”

"A few days ago, by chance, I 'get' a batch of high-end goods from a small merchant passing by the territory, and I want to use it as the capital to do some business. ”

Ned was stunned for a moment, the goods would only become more and more expensive, and it was a complete joke for the things bought in the countryside to be sold back to Jindu City. Then he figured out what he understood, and made an expression of understanding, "Take it out and look at it." ”

"I heard that it was a new product from Tro Ling, and it definitely satisfied you. But there's no hurry, there's another thing to say. Gilson lowered his voice and looked left and right, although he knew that the private affairs of the two little barons' families were not a fart in Jindu City, but they were still so. "Because of this, buddy, my position in the family is a bit ...... Well, you get the idea. So this time, please brother, you must do your best, and whether you succeed or not, you will have a piece of information to send. ”

"I will do my best. ”

"Something is going to happen to your family!"

Ned narrowed his eyes, but didn't ask.

In the Baron family, the five rings are no longer a waste of combat power. And Ned, as the fifth ring, was kicked down as the shopkeeper of the joint venture tavern in Jindu City, which is quite intriguing. Compared with Gilson being put on the position of head of the family, it can be described as a cloud of mud. Ned has a dislike for his family, which can be seen by a little person who has mixed up in the aristocratic circle.

Secretly scolding and confused, Gilson thought that maybe Ned was looking forward to something at home, and then explained: "A few days ago, a strong man from the Seven Rings asked our family about the situation of your family. I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, at that time, our whole family was floating in the air, life and death were only in the minds of others, and I almost peed my pants. ”

Apparently Gilson has hidden some of the plot.

"I understand your suffering, and there is no way to answer all questions. "This situation is indeed beyond the scope of 'aristocratic family friendship', and expecting others to die to keep secrets must be a child who has seen too many fairy tales and a fool who has seen too many knights.

And don't worry, judging from the attitude and content of his questioning, I personally feel that there is no hostility. ”

"Oh, the two elders of your family say the same thing?"

"One didn't speak, and the other told you to run quickly, saying that the strong man was a madman at all, and it was not strange to do anything. ”

These words made Ned ponder for a moment, nodded, and continued, "Tell me this......"

"Of course, I ask you to pass the word back, no matter what, it can also change your status in the family, at least in the name of the family, marry a daughter-in-law with qi magic talent, and at most get the position of an elder. After a pause, Gilson still hesitated to say what was in his heart: "I don't know what your family thinks, I will never 'exile' you like this." ”

"That maybe. Ned shook his head slowly.

After a brief silence, Gilson slapped his forehead, "Oh, I almost forgot. In the afternoon a seriously wounded man ran in and heard the tavern attendant say that he was an acquaintance of yours. Call...... Jack or Jaken?"

"Where?" Ned stood up, his face eager.

Gilson pointed behind him, glad that he had called the water magician to come and give first aid.
