At this moment, the expression on Count Dracula's face could be described as extremely complicated, and he looked at Adair with a stunned expression.

Adair blushed and almost tried to find a hole to get into, but she persevered, staring at Count Dracula.

Dora's head next to her was almost low to the ground.

As for Jones, well, Jones was expressionless, and then broke out in a cold sweat like crazy.

With a turn, Count Dracula turned into a bat and hovered in mid-air, looking through the castle window to see that Hydra was also watching him from afar. And it's nine heads taking turns watching.

The two sides just looked at each other.

Jones lowered his voice and said to Adair, "Why would you say that there is such a thing as a magic ban?"

"How did I know you'd let your father in? Crazy, isn't it? There's a free-moving hydra and you're going to let him in? Werewolves, I'm going to ban them!" growled Adair.

"What now?"

"How do I know what to do? I can't make it anymore. ”

"If you can't make it up, I probably won't be able to come over and help you take care of the castle in the future. ”

"Is this castle mine? Why do you like it?"

"Shhhhh......h

Yes, Count Dracula returned, fluttering his wings and landing in front of the two of them, taking on human form. There was something wrong with the look in his eyes when he looked at Adair, and there was a kind of anger in it.

"Young Master Adar, it's not appropriate for you to ask my son to help you take care of such a castle, right? He is only seventy-three years old. I don't even think he should be allowed to deal with you anymore. ”

Jones was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

"Uh...... Ahem, I, I don't think it's right either. Adair smiled awkwardly, almost not knowing what he was talking about: "Why don't I get the ban on it tomorrow?" sorry, I really just forgot, it's my fault." The ban will be added soon. I promise never to happen again. Or can I make it up now, and I'll let them get it right now?"

"Yes, get it now. Jones quickly chimed in.

However, just then, another voice came.

"What are you talking about? Ban me in my castle, or ban me?"

Nine snake heads came out of the castle's main entrance in unison, and the hydra's voice was full of anger.

The Bloods outside the door, including Count Dracula and Adair, were already frightened and hurriedly retreated.

"Your castle?" said Count Dracula, stunned.

Seeing that the nine heads of the hydra were about to make a move, Jones hurriedly screamed, "No!

After shouting, Jones suddenly remembered that his father was looking at him from behind, and hurriedly turned around: "Father is like this, that's right!"

Oh, he remembered that the hydra was also looking at him, and hurriedly turned back again: "Ma'am, it's really not like that!"

"So, what is it?" asked Hydra and Count Dracula almost in unison.

Adair was already covering her face and didn't know what to say. Dora silently lowered her head and took a step back.

Hydra's eyes were filled with anger, and Count Dracula's eyes were equally full of anger. They were all staring at Jones viciously. Jones stood between them, his whole body frozen.

Silence, silence, silence.

The wind blew gently past them, caressing the green leaves and making a rustling sound.

Jones sweated like rain, and the expression on his face began to distort a little. It's like laughing, and it's like crying.

After a short silence, it was Adair who spoke first: "Brother, I really can't help you!

As he spoke, he didn't wait for Jones to answer, but turned into a bat and flapped his wings and flew away. The butlers and blood clan guards who followed him also hurriedly flapped their wings one by one and followed closely behind.

In the blink of an eye, the only Count Jones, Dora, and Count Dracula were left in the bunch of blood clans outside the castle gates.

Dora's head was already buried low, and Count Dracula stared at Hydra warily at his own son at the same time. Hydra stared at everyone warily.

Only Jones, only Jones was the most relaxed, because he had already sat down, his whole person was already depressed, and his eyes were a little glazed.

After a long silence, Jones looked up at Hydra and said with a dejected expression: "Ma'am, will I take care of this matter myself?" I have never violated your interests, I have cleaned up the castle well, prepared food for you, and built toilets. You should trust me. Isn't it?"

The nine heads of the hydra stared at Jones silently for a moment before he replied softly, "Yes, I believe you." ”

After saying that, he looked at Count Dracula again.

"So, what the hell is going on?!" snarled Count Dracula angrily.

So, what's next?

Jones would have liked to struggle a little longer, but at this moment, no matter what he said, Count Dracula probably wouldn't believe it easily. At this moment, confession is probably the only way out.

......

"Wait, I'm going to leave like this, will Jones be mad at me?" Adel flapped his wings and hovered in midair.

The butler fluttered his wings and replied, "Perhaps." However, young master, you don't need to blame yourself for this, you have done your best. ”

"I didn't ask you if I needed to blame myself, I just asked you if Jones would be mad at me. ”

"Uh...... Maybe. ”

"Then we should go back, at least not just run away. ”

"But there's a hydra there, young master. ”

Adair looked at the Blood Clan guards, "Can you deal with Hydra?"

Several guards trembled: "Young master, I'm afraid not." We can't subdue it. ”

"What about saving Jones? If Hydra does it, save Jones. ”

"This should be fine. ”

"Okay, then let's go back and see what happens. With that, Adair began to flutter her wings and fly back.

......

On the hillside, Count Dracula was yelling at Jones, "So, you bought this castle with a Hydra with a thousand gold coins borrowed and nine thousand gold coins borrowed from the bank?

Jones nodded silently.

"You also borrowed 100,000 gold coins from Adair to prepare for the development of the mine? These dwarves are all slaves you bought?"

Jones blushed and nodded silently.

"Are you crazy? Why don't you ask me before you do any of these things?

The Countess had arrived, and when she heard the news, she was all stunned.

Susan had already arrived, and was so shocked that she couldn't keep her mouth shut.

Dora cowered to the side, not daring to say a word.

Hydra listened from afar.

The angry shouts drew the dwarves in the distance, and even the zombies staggered over, all watching as Jones was reprimanded by his father.

"I shouldn't have been reassuring of you, you've never been a reassuring person. Whatever you do, you're going to get into trouble. With a slight sigh of relief, Count Dracula glared at Jones, gritted his teeth, and asked, "How are you going to clean up this mess?"

Jones replied hesitantly, "This ...... It's not a mess, it's going to make money here very quickly. ”

"How do you make money?"

"There's a gold mine here, and Adolf has agreed to come and build a refinery. ”

"Who is Adolf?"

"Adolfo Cappadocia, a friend. ”

"The Cappadocia family perished many years ago, you should have taken another surname, maybe I'll believe it. ”

"No, what I said is true. It's really Adolfo Cappadocia. ”

"Listen, there is no gold mine here, a castle of 10,000 gold coins, even if there is a hydra living in it, there is no gold mine. ”

"No, there really is!"

"Do you still want to quibble?"

"This gentleman. The barrel came out of the pile and said, "I don't know what it is, but I swear by my more than 100 years of exploration experience that there is indeed a gold mine here." ”

"Shut up!" said Count Dracula, pointing at the barrel and roaring, "It's not the slave's turn to interject!"

"He's not a slave anymore!" Jones turned his face away from his father, but he gritted his teeth and said, "I have signed a pact with him, he is a dwarf with a free body!"

Count Dracula was stunned again: "You gave him a free body, didn't he buy it?"

"I bought it......"

"Then why do you want to set your slaves free? Do you sign an agreement? Do slaves have the right to negotiate terms with their masters?"

"But he's different, he can help me make money. I gave him a free body so that he could better help me make money. ”

"What about the money, have you earned a penny back?" roared Count Dracula.

The whole world was silent.

The barrel silently returned to the dwarves.

Jones stood quietly, head bowed, fists clenched. I don't know why, the fear and hesitation in those eyes gradually faded, but there was more of a blandness, a kind of despair. Silently staring at the empty ground in front of him.

Everyone was watching him.

"You've done a lot of things since you were a kid, but you didn't do any of them. None of them. The only achievement is probably to become the adopted son of the Lich King. This is the favor of Heaven for you. A lot of people are talking about you now, and the few times I've been to the fraternity, they've asked about you. I used to think that you would change because of this, but now I think it might be a bigger disaster. Count Dracula gritted his teeth and spoke slowly, his tone full of anger: "Look at what you've done? I can borrow money from the bank because I am the adopted son of the Lich King. He was able to borrow money from Adair because he was the adopted son of the Lich King. You used to have to get into trouble in your own house, but now you're starting to get out of the house, right? I thought you'd be going to grow in six years away from home, but now it doesn't seem like you're doing it, right?"

Jones's clenched fists were already trembling, and tears were pouring down.

Hiding in the distance, Adair and his guards watched snuckly.

"I don't know how I could have given birth to a son like you. Count Dracula held his forehead, sighed, and reprimanded viciously with wide eyes: "You still go to be a slave to the Hydra? As a high-ranking blood clan, why do you want to be a slave to a Hydra? What is your dignity? Do you know that it can swallow you at any time? Even if it is exposed now, you still have to lie to me? There is a gold mine here? And what other Cappadocia family wants to help you build a refinery? Ah? Answer me!"

The wind was still blowing gently, and it was quiet all around.

Everyone was silently looking at Jones, silently watching.

With his head down, his body trembled slightly, as if he was sobbing.

After a long time, Jones replied in a weak voice: "I have told many lies, almost all the time. ”

"What?"

Just as someone was watching, Jones suddenly raised his head, looked directly at his father, and shouted with wide eyes: "I lie almost all the time, I have told many, many lies!"

The Countess looked at her child in amazement.

Count Dracula was stunned.

His eyes widened, and Jones cried as he gritted his teeth and said, "I've told a lot of lies, because you won't believe me whether I'm telling the truth or not." One of those lies is that I have already realized my mistake. ”

Pointing at Susan, Jones's voice suddenly rose an octave, and he shouted: "I've been lying about her, including about her! I hate her, I hate her very much! I'd rather not marry a wife than have her be my wife! I've never reflected on molesting her! Because I never did it! I was wronged, but you believe her! There are countless such things!"

Count Dracula's eyes widened slowly.

Everyone around them looked at Jones in dismay.

Susan took a cautious step back.

Gritting his teeth, Jones continued: "Why do I never tell you the truth, because you stop everything I think!Everything! You think everything I think is a joke! But to be honest, I think what you think is a joke! What should I do? Should I marry a wife and spend eternity quietly?Like you?? Maybe I'll fail, but that's better than dying in silence!

It was the first time in years that Jones had spoken to his father in such a tone. He knew very well that he might be greeted by a storm. However, he still wanted to say it, to say what he had held in his heart for so many years.

After saying that, he seemed to have collapsed, looked at his father in a daze, shed tears, and retreated step by step.

"I'm grateful to you, really. You gave me life, but that doesn't mean I have to listen to you for everything, and it doesn't mean that I have to live as you want to be. I want my own life. In the past, I would give in every time you got angry, but not this time. Not really, even if you're going to kick me out of the house, even if you're going to strip me of my last name, I'm going to stick with it. ”

"You're crazy. Looking at Jones, who had completely lost his temper, Count Dracula shook his head slowly, and approached step by step: "I'll take you back and lock you up now, so that you can reflect on what mistakes you have made!"

The others present were all silent.

"No! I'm not going back!" Jones roared hysterically, turning and running.

"Come back with me!" Count Dracula flew forward.

Just as his hand was about to touch Jones, Jones suddenly rose into the air. It doesn't fly like a bat, it takes off in human form.

Raising his head, Count Dracula suddenly saw the Hydra.

Yes, the hydra, who had been listening quietly from a distance, didn't know when it was already close at hand. One of its heads, holding Jones's collar. The other head slowly bent down, looked at Count Dracula, and whispered, "Sir, I don't quite agree with what you just said. ”
