Chapter 199: The English Aristocrats (I)
His trick was exposed in front of him, Chen Dejun looked a little embarrassed, and was about to get up to stop Fernan's actions, but was stopped by Xu Changqing with a voice, and then exited the study. When the door closed, Xu Changqing ran the Earth Escape Technique, disappeared into the side room in an instant, and emerged from the ground behind Fernann almost at the same time. Fernan saw this strange scene behind him from the mirror, and couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly turned around and looked at Xu Changqing. Through the light, he saw Xu Changqing's appearance clearly, was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are Xu Changqing Mr. Xu, much younger than I imagined!"
At the dinner just now, Fernan had noticed that Xu Changqing, whose figure and temperament could be said to stand out from the crowd, thought that he was the son of a certain Chinese businessman, and talked to him for a few words, and was very impressed by his knowledge, conversation and language. After that, Fernan also had the idea of hiring Xu Changqing as the company's general agent in China, but he didn't expect his identity to be so complicated in the end, and he was relieved at the same time as he dispelled his thoughts. After all, with Fernand's knowledge of him, it was completely reasonable that that profound knowledge appeared in him.
"Young, hehe, Count Fernan, you are still a year younger than me!" Xu Changqing said with a smile after motioning for him to sit down.
Perhaps because he has been taking ships all over the world to take care of the family business all year round, Fernan's forehead has a lot of wrinkles, and his temples have also appeared a little gray, compared to Xu Changqing, who has always been twenty years old.
Regarding Xu Changqing's age, Fernan was not too surprised, but only expressed a little envy for his ability to maintain his youthful appearance, and said with a smile: "If Mr. Xu can disclose the secret of maintaining youth, I think women all over the world will be willing to dedicate themselves to you!"
Xu Changqing was a little unaccustomed to this kind of Western-style humor, smiled indifferently, and then asked bluntly: "I don't know if Count Fernan needs to see me?"
Fernan also tidied up his slightly messy clothes, then looked at Xu Changqing and said, "Mr. Xu and I still have some origins, and Mr. Xu's Western studies teacher, Bishop Matthews, is my godfather. ”
Xu Changqing was slightly surprised, as if he had thought of something, and looked at Fernan for a while, as if he wanted to see through it. But Fernan never thought that his words would make Xu Changqing have such a big reaction, under Xu Changqing's sight, he felt that he didn't seem to have any secrets to hide, so he couldn't help but laugh dryly, and joked: "Mr. Xu, your eyes are so sharp, not only women can't stand it, but even men can't resist it." ”
Xu Changqing smiled lightly, and then said with a straight face: "Count Fernan, don't beat around the bush, just say your purpose!"
Fernan's face seemed to have never been treated like this, and his face was a little gloomy, but he quickly recovered, and said with a stern expression: "A few days ago, I accidentally learned from the godfather that the holy cross of the Western Holy See is in the hands of Mr. Xu. This relic is not only of great use to the Holy See, but also very important to my Depp family, I wonder if Mr. Xu can transfer this relic to me? I am willing to exchange the family's entire Asian and half European property in exchange!"
Such a large fortune is an absolute temptation that ordinary people cannot refuse, but in Xu Changqing's eyes, this is no different from dung. The reason why Fernan set such a condition is because in his heart, he always regarded Xu Changqing as a staff attached to the big family, a secular person who could be bought with money.
Xu Changqing did not express any displeasure with Fernan's stupid conditions, but smiled and said: "I am very happy to have another buyer, and the more buyers there are, the better it will be for me." If Count Fernand really wants this cross, I will tell you my terms. As he spoke, he took a piece of charcoal from the stove in the study, drew the stone made of heaven and earth spirits on a piece of paper, handed it to Fernan, and said, "Money has no effect on me, if you can find such a thing, come with me to exchange crosses!"
"Stone, a stone?" Fernan took the painting and looked at it, surprised.
"Yes, this thing is like a stone to you. Xu Changqing didn't explain too much, and then told Fernan the approximate whereabouts of the heaven and earth spiritual objects, and said: "Bishop Matthews also knows this news, I hope you can find it before him, whoever can bring me the stone, the cross belongs to whom." ”
Hearing Xu Changqing's last words, a flash of brilliance flashed in Fernan's eyes, and he said with a smile: "Free competition is very fair. As he spoke, he shaped the painting with water and put it away, and then begged, "I wonder if Mr. Xu can show me the cross?"
"Yes!" Xu Changqing casually took out the cross from his sleeve and threw it to Fernan like garbage.
Fernan hurriedly caught it, carefully held it in his hand, and glanced at Xu Changqing with a slight dissatisfaction, obviously annoyed that Xu Changqing was so disrespectful of this Western holy relic. But soon his attention was on the cross in his hand, and he closed the cross in his hand, knelt on one knee, bowed his head, touched his forehead with both hands, and said something in his mouth.
Then Xu Changqing saw that the cross emitted a burst of white light enveloping Fernan's body, and at this time, a cross-shaped white light also appeared on Fernan's head at the same time, and then all the light disappeared, and it returned to normal. However, what the two people in the study didn't know was that when the light of the cross appeared on Fernan's head, the werewolf and the succubus who were chatting with people in the garden of the Chen Mansion invariably had a sense, and they all looked at the study of the main house of the Chen Mansion in horror. After returning to normal, the three Western monsters didn't dare to stay here anymore, and confessed to Chen Dejun, and left with their own hearts.
In the study, the expression on Fernan's face, who had already experienced the authenticity of the cross, was unpredictable, and the thoughts in his heart were endless, many of which were the idea of forcibly taking it away. However, when he saw Xu Changqing's inconvenient confident smile, all his thoughts disappeared, because he realized that even people like Bishop Matthews would not dare to snatch the cross from Xu Changqing's hands, and now he was even more impossible.
