283 Matters are left to man

"We can't eat it?" The middle-aged man sneered, his fingers like withered eagle talons tapped lightly on the tabletop: "You mean, your Dolan family can eat it, and our Duoyan family is not as good as you?" When did you become so arrogant, old Dolan, have you forgotten that more than thirty years ago, when the army of Lidaya City was overwhelmed, who relieved your Dolan family of the siege? ”

Schumacher glanced at the table, he knew that middle-aged men have a habit, once they are angry in their hearts, they will subconsciously tap the table with their fingers, he sighed softly and said: "Old Duoyan, I don't mean to look down on your family, of course I can't deal with people, of course I can't do it, otherwise why would I ask you to come over for cooperation." ”

The two maids brought fresh fruit wine, Schumacher made a gesture of invitation, and then he continued: "Everyone knows that the business of snow salt is a way to make a lot of money, and those who can get it will never let him out casually." Have you investigated the Soul Thinker? Our Dolan family was ridiculed by the entire aristocratic class a year ago, and it was he who caused it. ”

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's fingers stopped tapping on the table, he shook the fruit wine in the cup, looking at the liquid of green and new grass inside, he had also heard about the incident a year ago, but without serious investigation, he said: "Please continue, I know that you must have other explanations." ”

"That soul contemplative has two servants of the sun god, two." Schumacher poured himself a glass of fruit wine, and continued: "Just a few days ago, a servant of the sun god was planning to assassinate me, but fortunately I asked for reinforcements, otherwise it would be a matter of life and death." Above all, according to our investigations, the Soul Thinker was quite proficient in the science of war, though still a little immature. It's really not something that ordinary aristocrats like we can gnaw down. ”

The middle-aged man didn't speak, and there was no expression on his face, just in a daze. The young man in the ornate armor took over and asked, "Uncle Schumacher, just as the Soul Thinker has two Sun God Servants, this is too fantastical, but they are the agents of the gods, how can they be subservient to the Soul Thinker?" ”

"I'm weird too. But the two servants of the sun god were women...... And quite close to the soul thinker. Schumacher laughed twice: "Although the female servants of the sun are noble, they are women after all, or maybe the soul thinker has a rather exaggerated talent for attracting women." ”

The young man sighed twice at this explanation. Then he said enviously: "Those are two female sun god servants, I heard that they are the most beautiful people in the whole world." ”

"A strong reinforcement that can deal with two Sun God Servants!" The middle-aged man looked at Schumacher with a strange expression on his face: "It seems that you have traveled extensively recently, and even the people of the Dark Mansion can come into contact with you." ”

The existence of the Hillary clan is not much of a secret among the upper nobility. But knowing the Tao is one thing. Whether or not it can be put online is another matter. The mysteries of the believers of the Dark Mansions are not much worse than those of the Sun God.

Schumacher just laughed. No answer. He would never tell anyone about it. Those men in black took the initiative to contact him, rather than communicating broadly as the other party said. Outside the house, there was a noise of soldiers assembling, and he put down the cup in his hand and said, "Those people are only working with me, their goals. It was to kill Chen Xiansong and take away a young girl, a very beautiful girl, according to them. The maiden was a very important person, a sacrifice to the dark god. This matter involves the Divine Mansion, so I didn't tell you because I was afraid that I would be willful. ”

Schumacher lied, one of the cooperation agreements between him and the man in black was to save Chen Xiansong's life, of course, it doesn't matter if he lacks arms or legs. Xue Yan's matter is too important, of course he won't share it with others, but he didn't expect that the other party would be able to find out, and it was obvious that there must be the other party's undercover agent in his staff group. Fortunately, only he and the man in black knew about the agreement between him and the man in black, and he didn't even tell his own son.

Of course, the middle-aged man didn't believe his words, but just thought for a while and said: "There are two small salt pans in my territory, and since there are two sun god servants on the other side, then I won't join in the fun." I can help you drag the troops of Black Rock City, but afterwards...... I'm not greedy for that person, but I need tools, all the tools, and all the living salt workers in Black Rock City, if you can promise to come down, we are still friends, if you don't agree, I'll turn around and leave immediately. How's it up to you to enjoy all the benefits? ”

Holding a glass of fruit wine, Schumacher drank it slowly and did not speak. The middle-aged man was not in a hurry, he leaned back, and looked at each other quietly.

After about five or six minutes, Schumacher nodded and said, "Deal." ”

The young man stood up: "Uncle Schumacher, then we will focus on attacking Black Rock City and try to hold them back." And the future wealth and interests of our two families are up to you. ”

Black Rock Castle, inside the Lord's Mansion. The old lord sat on the throne, and below stood his eldest son, Bill, and Zeron.

The old city lord is wearing heavy armor and is full of domineering, and it is now a time of war, and it is normal for warriors to wear armor. He held a few pieces of parchment in his hand, looked at them for a moment, and looked at his eldest son, Bill, with a cold gaze. In the eyes of disappointment and anger, he spoke: "Although deception and betrayal are rife among our nobles, this is something that can only happen in the shadows at any time, but during this time, something happened in our city lord's mansion that disgraced our family. ”

Zeloner had already roughly guessed what his father wanted to say, and he hung his head slightly, but did not speak.

The eldest son, Bill, took a step forward and said, "Father, who did such a thing, tell me, and I will help you deal with it." ”

"Who is it?" The old city lord looked at his eldest son, his cheeks jumped, and he seemed to be a little distorted: "Recently, the vice president of the association came to this item, saying that after the snow salt is made, we should be responsible for transporting it, but the amount of snow salt they receive will be reduced by dozens of kilograms every day, at first I thought it was a calculation error, but later it turned out that it was indeed the truth, Bill, what do you think about this?" ”

A slight cold sweat broke out on Bill's face, but his face did not change, but he said: "Father, give me a warrant, I will definitely find out that person who is greedy for ink and snow salt, and make him worse than ......."

Before he could say anything, the angry old lord took off his iron gauntlet and threw it in Bill's face. Blood splattered, Bill covered his nose and fell to the ground, the old city lord jumped down from the throne, rushed to Bill's side and kicked the other party's lower abdomen hard, and then scolded angrily: "You idiot, I gave you a chance to admit your mistake, you still want to find a way to shirk?" ”

"You want a warrant...... It's to casually put the charge on a guard. The old city lord kicked again in anger: "Or do you press on your own brother?" You idiot, how could I give birth to an idiot like you. ”

Ze Long'er smiled slightly, and then said: "Father, I'll go and give Chen Xiansong a crime now, saying that it has been investigated." ”

The old city lord turned around: "What are you going to say?" ”

"One of the guards did it secretly and has already been executed by us." Zelonger said: "Chen Xiansong is very smart, he can understand our actions to maintain the faΓ§ade. But in order to show sincerity, we have to get some blood. The people of the Aurora Kingdom have an unusually fanatical possessiveness for land, and the place where Chen Xiansong's territory is located is some barren mountains that cannot be cultivated, and it should make him feel satisfied if he is not allowed to give him another nearby mountain and a hundred meters of soil and rice around the foot of the mountain. ”

"A mountain, isn't it too little, I'm afraid that he will look at your face, maybe he won't talk about this matter anymore, but he may leave a problem in his heart, maybe it will affect the relationship in the future......" The old city lord said worriedly: "And the army of Lidaya City is coming, we can't help him, the two things together, it shouldn't be so easy to settle." ”

"Then add one more mountain?" Zeloner suggested!

After thinking for a while, the old city lord nodded in agreement. In the study on the second floor, Ze Longer drew up a land contract, then carried it in his arms, went outside, took a dozen family guards, and rode at full speed in the direction of Graystone Village. The horses galloped quite fast, and after about an hour, they reached the foot of the mountain in Greystone Village.

It was still some distance from Chen Xiansong's castle, but they had to dismount, because the main road was already full of freshly baked rejection horses. His bodyguards were all veterans of a hundred battles, and one of them came to his side and said, "Young master, the placement of these rejected horses is very old and correct. If you charge hard, it will be difficult to break through this line without more than 600 cavalry or more than 1,000 cavalry. ”

Ze Long'er nodded, this is not surprising, Chen Xiansong has a talent for war science, he has long known the Tao.

Because of the frequent relationship, the guards here have long recognized Zelong'er, and they know that he is the son of the city lord, and when they see him coming up, they immediately pull away the horses on the trail and let them go up the mountain.

Zelonger was almost halfway up the mountain, the castle was already close in front of him, and when he was about to go in, he heard a strange loud noise from behind the mountain, and then the birds all over the mountain were startled, and after a while, he saw a black smoke rising from behind the mountain.

Powerful warlocks can also produce such a huge earthquake when they use certain spells, but the question is, what is the black smoke, unlike the smoke from the burning of wood or leaves, because no matter how these things smolder, the smoke produced is green smoke, and this smoke is as black as charcoal...... And condense but not disperse.

Could it be that some new weapon has been forged?

At the moment of the great enemy, it is no wonder that Zelonger has such thoughts. In confusion, he walked into the castle, and then saw two people who surprised him a little, Chen Zeyi and Chen Guangrong. (To be continued......)
