Chapter 38 The Mysterious Visitor
The winter throne in early autumn was already a little cold, Ding Ran also carried a bottle of wine and sat by the bonfire with An Zifeng, the two had not spoken, of course An Zifeng knew what he was thinking, but it was not easy to arouse the topic.
Seeing Liana coming from afar, An Zifeng walked away with interest.
"Hey, why didn't you say a word tonight, and you didn't ask me for a drink, it's not like you dead rascal. Liana sat beside him and pushed Ding Ran, who was still in a fugue, with her hand.
"Well, it's you, shouldn't you go to the boss for a drink?, why do you think of me?" Ding Ran asked with a little sourness.
"Is that what you mean by yourself?" you want me to go to him?" asked Liana deliberately staring at him with a pair of beautiful eyes.
"It's... Of course... Of course I don't want you to go. Ding Ran said hesitantly.
"Ray and I are just friends, and we won't change in the future, nerd. Liana finished and left.
Ding Ran was in a daze for a while before he reacted and almost jumped up with joy, he ran into the crowd as if he had changed and pulled out An Zifeng is slammed water.
At dawn, Ray, who was naked, woke up from Christina's embrace, and just tried to remove her hand, only to find that he hugged her tighter instead.
"Don't move, just let me hold you quietly like this. Christina whispered softly as she arched Ray's chest.
"It's dangerous for you to do this, fool you will awaken all my evil thoughts, I can't bear to let you be hurt. Ray said, stroking her hair.
"I'm not afraid, now that I'm your woman, I should serve you. ”
"I'm afraid not, someone is looking for me outside. Ray heard two soldiers outside pushing each other because they didn't dare to tell him.
When Lei pushed open the door and went out, the two soldiers snapped and saluted, "Regiment Commander!"
"What's the matter with you struggling for a long time? ”
"Yes! Chief Ann has asked us to invite you to the council chamber, and a guest has been waiting for you this morning. ”
Ray wondered a little as to who would come to the door on the first day of the first day of winter? If it was the leader of the nearby territories who came to show goodwill, he would not have to come forward himself.
The inner city is very large, and it takes a few hundred meters to get to the council chamber, so it would be really hard to find it if they didn't bring it.
When there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, more than a dozen people inside looked at the door in unison, except for Lei, the other big leaders were there.
As soon as Ray stepped in, he became the center of attention, and a middle-aged man in a shadow suit slowly turned around and said, "Long time no see, Ray." ”
There were still traces of gunsmoke on his face, and his clothes were torn in many places, and for a while, Lei didn't recognize who it was.
After looking at it for a while, I almost exclaimed, "You!You're Murphy Yard?!"
"Isn't it a little incredible, but I've been in the shadows ever since I left the Plains of Fall. Yard nodded.
"Are you spying on me?" said Ray with a cold face at the sight of being fooled.
"I understand your feelings, why don't you interpret my actions as if I was secretly helping you? If you don't believe this, Miss Liana should recognize these two people, right?"
Yard said as he lifted a large package at his feet, and Liana was puzzled as he untied the canvas and rolled onto the stage with two human heads grunting.
"It's them!" Liana was also taken aback, "Hubble and Johnny of the Bright Council assassination organization, what about the other? They are triplet brothers who have never been separated, they have super sensing power to fight with each other, and they can almost resist a seventh-order warrior, if I face them, I don't even have a chance to escape." ”
After listening to Liana's words, everyone was afraid for a while, if they were disrupted by these guys last night, the consequences would be unimaginable, because a seventh-order opponent was enough to affect the overall situation.
At the same time, he also gained a new understanding of Murphy Yard's abilities, and it was clear that none of the people present were his opponents.
"There was another person I didn't keep, but he only had a month to live at most. Mumphia rewrapped his two heads and threw them at his feet, "Ray, you believe we're on the same front now, right?"
"Okay, I believe you, but it's time for you to tell me the truth about some things, such as the beginning and end of your feud with your own family, I think Kross is right when you let me settle in the Borderlands One of the purposes is to sow discord among Murphy's clans, am I right, Lord Yard?"
Ray just believed that he had no ill will towards him, but he still hadn't figured out his purpose, and he would definitely not be able to continue to cooperate with him before.
Murphy Yard did not deny it, saying, "This is only one of my purposes, and as for the other I want to talk to you separately, shall I be okay? ”
Ray's heart was beating fast, and the mysterious Murphy Yard was always surprising and impossible to refuse.
Everyone was a little uneasy, Ray faced Murphy Yard alone, this guy is very deep in the city, and it is impossible to determine whether he is friend or foe.
Ray nodded at them and said, "Let's talk alone, don't worry, it's okay." ”
Ray said this, they had to do what they said, and only Ray and Yard were left sitting opposite each other in the huge hall, "Can you say it now?"
"Do you have a cigarette? I suddenly wanted to get one, hehe, there is always not enough money to spend during this time, although Shadow's pay is much higher than my cappuccilon. This is one of the reasons why your soldiers are willing to work hard for you, and the other is that the shadows feel like home, and for those who live in precarious situations, the sense of belonging is much warmer than money, which is what I admire most about you. "In private, Yard is like a chattering old man.
Ray handed him a cigarette and lit one for him, and in the smoke he told a true story.
Borderlands was formerly known as Filas Territory, the private property of Yard's mother's family, but due to the decline of the family, it was swallowed up by the rising Murphy family, and his mother became a hostage of Murphy I.
At that time, his mother took the initiative to marry Murphy I as his third wife in order to save the remnants from complete destruction, and the condition was that the territory of Filas could not be divided into any branch family.
Murphy I, the father of Yard, also kept his promise and did not settle in this area, which is why there is today's Borderlands.
However, when he was sixteen years old, Murphy I was assassinated, and despite all the evidence, it was apparently that the eldest son, Fermus, had instructed the elders to do the presbyterian work, but they still supported him to take the position of head of the family.
Since then, Kiard and his other heirs have been ostracized and even killed to varying degrees, and he has to huddle in the fallen plains in order to protect himself.
His mother had hoped to one day regain control of the Borderlands, and Yard only thought she missed her homeland and didn't tell him the truth until she was dying.
"There's a lab from an old era in the Borderlands that contains samples of the original genes of Project Apocalypse. That's why our family has always guarded this land.
"This thing is too important, even if you sacrifice the entire family, you can't let it fall into the hands of outsiders. Yard extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand and said, "These are my mother's words." ”
Ray finally couldn't help asking, "But I still don't understand, why does this have anything to do with me?"
Murphy Yard looked at Ray and said, "Of course there is, and you are the most important, and my mother gave me both." ”
After saying that, he took out a delicate metal box from his arms, and Ray glanced at the shiny black box and knew that it was worth a lot of money, even if he directly ate the heavy artillery bombardment, it would not be damaged.
Murphy Yard carefully flicked the numbers on the wheel, the code was known only to him, and there was only one chance to enter it, if the wrong explosives placed inside would destroy the contents.
With a click, the box opened, and Yard pulled out a yellowed photo and handed it to Ray.
Lei took it and looked at it, and his whole body became stiff, and a thin photo seemed to weigh tens of millions of pounds and almost couldn't hold it and fell to the ground.
