127 Conflict (I)
The sun was covered by the tall canopy, the forest was extremely dark, and he could barely see the facial features of a person half a meter away, and the commander with a vulture face had lost the composure and composure of more than ten days ago at this time, and he was exhausted after more than a month of fugitive life, and the stubble on his chin was as dense as hair, and his hair was all oily, even in the shape of plates, and the clothes on his body were already in tatters.
The rest of his subordinates are even more unbearable, the smell of the iron-blooded army in the past has almost disappeared, and his eyes are full of indifference.
If it weren't for the great hope in their hearts, if it weren't for someone secretly funding them, this team would have collapsed a few days ago. The mercenaries searched for them like crazy all over the mountains, so much so that they had to move their camps at least several times a day, and at night they were all over the woods, and more and more of them could not hold on and fell behind, caught by the crazy mercenaries who hung behind like lone wolves.
"Allies in the city...... If you don't follow the plan, we'll be finished. The Commander muttered to himself blankly as he squeezed a bubble under his mouth with his hand, splattering lymph fluid from the subcutaneous tissue.
In the city, Catherine was on the balcony of her house. On the table in front of her are many jīng-chic desserts, as well as a luxurious set of drinking utensils. Jay went to the Soul Thinkers Society to invite guests. The little one looked at the dessert on the table with greedy eyes, and swallowed saliva from time to time, but she did not dare to reach out without her mother's consent.
"Mom, let me eat one first. Big brother, he won't mind. The little guy finally couldn't resist the delicious yòò and began to beg his mother.
"That's not going to work. There is a reason for students to eat before the teacher. Catherine glared.
Woo...... The little guy let out a sad cry like a wounded little animal, and his innocent and lovely face had a flattery that even an adult nvxìng could not have, giving people a spiritual impact. Catherine sighed secretly in her heart, if she hadn't been pregnant in October, she would have wondered if the young NV in front of her was her own NV. She thought that the bloodline of her family was definitely not so peculiar, and she thought that this child should have inherited her husband's special bloodline.
Thinking of the word blood, Claude's words a few days ago came back to her, followed by a sneer.
A valet stepped down and whispered a few words in front of her. Catherine's brow furrowed, and she let the NV stay on the balcony while she went downstairs with the servant. Outside the Mén mouth, she saw Claude standing at the Mén mouth with a few mercenaries, and those people had a fierce aura that ordinary people could detect. She first sighed, and then said in her heart, secretly begging for it.
Whether the guess in the mind is correct or not, the reality of the face will not change. Catherine took a deep breath and stepped forward.
Now Catherine's body is almost better, and her body is getting more and more plump, a typical image of beauty and youth. Claude's eyes lit up slightly when he saw her, and then he returned to that superior look. He waited for Catherine to come nearer, and then spoke, "I haven't seen you for a long time, ma'am, and you are becoming more and more beautiful, and I am deeply enchanted. ”
"Thank you, Your Excellency, for your compliment." Catherine made a noble bow and said with a smile: "Please come in." ”
Claude entered the house, and his guards followed. It stands to reason that the guards of ordinary guests are not allowed to step into the noble room, and special guards like Bai Min are naturally different. As a contemplative and aristocratic soul, it is impossible for Claude not to be aware of this rule, but not only did he not stop his subordinates, or rather, it may have been his prior treatment.
Catherine felt more and more that something was wrong, but her thinking circuit was too limited, and instead of drawing any conclusions, she had a faint pain in her brain. She quickly gave up thinking and invited the guests to sit down, and after boasting to each other, she tactfully asked Claude what he meant. …,
Claude did not answer, but smiled and said, "Madam, I smell the fragrance of pastries, are you preparing for a family afternoon fruit wine party?" I don't know if I have the honor of accompanying my wife to taste delicious pastries and fruit wine. ”
"I was about to invite Your Excellency." Catherine smiled far-fetchedly, and she looked at the mercenaries behind Claude, and a strange glint flashed in her eyes. She put her left behind her and made a few gestures without knowing it, and a valet saw it, and quietly left the living room and turned in the direction of the rear mén.
Catherine and Claude soon appeared on the balcony in the direction of the backyard on the second floor, the little guy sat up straight on the chair, a good child's appearance, Catherine smiled, stepped forward, helped NV wipe the non-existent pastry foam from the corner of her mouth, and said angrily: "I'm stealing food again, and I'll punish you for endorsing and asking me to listen." ”
"Ah, I've wiped it clean." The little guy jumped up, put her hands on her lips, and after a while, she saw her mother's smug smile, and immediately understood: "Mom, you actually lied to me......"
"You're stupid." Catherine smiled slyly.
Hmph, the little guy was a little unhappy, and soon she saw Claude standing behind her mother, her little face collapsed suddenly, and she quickly hid behind her mother, and asked in a low voice, "Mom, is he...... How did it come. ”
"Say hello to the guests first." Catherine tugged at the NV.
The little one came out, gave a very standard courtesy, and then hid behind his mother. As soon as Claude came to the Yang Bar, his eyes stayed on the little guy, and his eyes were full of a kind of moxibustion heat, Catherine found out, her brows furrowed a little deeper, and she felt more and more that something was wrong, but when she thought of Jay going to the Soul Thinkers Association to invite Chen Xiansong, and the latter should be almost there, her heart was a little more steady.
"Lord Claude, please be seated."
When Catherine asked Claude to sit down, the latter did not respond, and his gaze remained on the little one, and he did not react until Catherine raised her voice and said it again. Such a faux pas was caught, but Claude did not have an embarrassed expression at all, he continued to look at the little guy a few more times in the open anyway, and then turned his head and asked Catherine: "Madam, how did you think about my proposal a few days ago?" ”
"That doesn't seem good." Catherine sneered in her heart, and there was an embarrassed expression on her face: "His Excellency Chen Xiansong is Sith's teacher, this matter is designated by the association, will it not be good if we change it without authorization?" ”
"It's not the association's decision, it's just my teacher Sosi's password, it's not something that can't be changed." Claude picked up the long-spouted green crystal flask, first poured a glass for Catherine and Frances, then poured himself a full glass, raised the glass, signaled to the two NV people in front of him, one big and one small, took a sip first, and then continued: "Besides, I am a student of the teacher, how difficult do you think it will be for me to ask the teacher for a student?" ”
Catherine still had a embarrassed expression on her face: "I think it's better to discuss this matter with His Excellency Chen Xiansong." ”
"No, I don't." Claude waved his left hand very angrily: "Qingxi City, my teacher has the final say, then the City Lord's Mansion, and then me." And Chen Xiansong is just a passerby, so he has the qualifications to discuss with us, besides, Foxis nv...... Miss is an important material of our clan, so naturally we should teach him, no matter how powerful Chen Xiansong is, he is just an outsider. ”
"Big brother is not an outsider." The little one jumped out and shouted to Claude, "I just want my big brother to be my teacher, and no one else." I don't want to go with you, so you leave our house quickly. ”
Catherine said lightly, "Sith, sit back in your chair and pay attention to your politeness. ”…,
'Oh! The little one obediently obeyed his mother's commands.
Instead of being angry, Claude looked at Frances with a kind of idiotic look. Seeing such a gaze, Catherine stood up, walked a few steps without a trace, completely blocked NV behind her, and said lightly: "Your Excellency Claude, I am very happy and honored that you are willing to become Sith's teacher, but between people, sometimes we have to pay attention to fate, Sith and Chen Xiansong are very close, I think they are destined to become masters and apprentices, maybe this is the arrangement of the God of Light." ”
"The arrangement of the God of Light...... Claude suddenly snorted coldly: "Madam, you are talking about Bai Min, you want to tell me that someone will support you...... I'll admit that the Sun Servant is very strong, but do you really think that the Sun Temple will be the backer behind Miss Frances? Madam, you don't know how to go, my clan and the Sun Temple have some festivals! ”
"Anything can be flexible." Catherine said slowly.
"Do you mean to join the Sun Temple?" Claude seemed to have expected Catherine to rebel against him, and he didn't have a surprised expression at all: "Madam, your courage and determination are stronger than most men, and it is a pity that you are an nvxìng, but these skills must be built on sufficient strength." ”
Claude stood up: "Ma'am...... We're going to take Miss Frances away now, offended. ”
Several of the guards behind Claude approached step by step.
Catherine saw that Claude was so tough, she hurriedly hugged Nv Er in her arms, and at the same time shouted: "Lord Claude, please respect your identity, you are a deep thinker of souls, if your teacher Your Excellency Sossi knows what you have done, do you think he will forgive you?" Besides, Sith is still young...... Are you in too much of a hurry right now? ”
"Ma'am, I think you've misunderstood something." Claude laughed, "We didn't take Miss Frances because of her beauty, but I do wish Miss would choose me to be her husband in the future, but not now." She needs to learn and grow in a better, safer, and more befitting place for who she is, and Chan Hyun-song is not qualified to teach Frances. ”
A few of the guards walked up step by step, and Catherine put her arm around the little one and stepped back step by step until she hit the balcony railing.
There was no way out, but Catherine's eyes suddenly lit up, because she saw three people appear at the entrance to the balcony, who were Frances's exclusive guards, and Catherine shouted: "Lestot, you three come and protect Sith, these people want to kidnap Sith." ”
Claude glanced back, then smiled, "Ma'am, I'm sorry, but these three people are also members of my clan. ”
