Session 1: To Talk (Part I)
Section 1: To Talk or Not to Talk?
The west coast borders the inland, and walks to the si's important town of Wakale, at night.
Wakale is just a frontier town, but also a thriving Jiāo hub because of the Si, wealth is the whole meaning of its existence, and it is also its only pursuit. The Wakale people's thirst for wealth is direct and fierce, and it is wild and bloody.
Here, the lights of the hotel must be bright to the blind, the surrounding furnishings must be rough to the eye-catching, and the environment around you must be crazy and vulgar to the point of unbearable...... No matter the joy or the tragedy, no matter the passer-by and the host, it cannot change its style.
Regardless, the town of Wakale is not a good place to experience reunions and surprises. But just when Townsend was unprepared, a reunion just came like this.
Sister Wenli Heather Swarosia Xiǎo is standing in front of him alive at this moment. The moment she lifted the veil, the harsh light was covered with a layer of gentleness, and when she looked at Townsend, the charm of tranquil elegance gently overflowed.
This demeanor must have been hidden by her for a long time, containing an unusual kindness and fragrance.
Her gaze was delightful, with a little bit of movement, a touch of pink appeared on her fair cheeks, her blue eyes flickered slightly, and the brilliance in them was as clear and subtle as usual--the silence between the two looked at each other for only a moment, and Townsend could see the changes in Sister Wen Lixiǎo, in addition to the familiar old days, she was now more calm and unyielding.
Townsend felt his heart fluctuate, but the giant sword in his hand did not lower, but slowly turned in a direction and asked softly, "Sister Wenli xiǎo?"
"Yes. I'm your friend, Wenli. Sister Wen Li nodded reservedly, her tone moved slightly, but she quickly stabilized her emotions: "Mr. Townsend, you ...... Is everything alright?"
"So-so, it's complete. Towngend's expression was calm, and he began to observe the other two people next to her with scrutinizing and guarded eyes: "Sister Wenlixiǎo, are you ......?"
"I'm safe now, thank you, Mr. Townsend. Wen Li saw Townsend's doubts at a glance, and she immediately explained: "This is my aunt, this is my housekeeper, and I have been transferring the family with their help. Without them, I would not have been able to leave the Andorran Union safely. ”
"Aunt Hazel. Immediately after that, Sister Wen Li Xiǎo turned around and said to the cold and arrogant woman dressed as a wife beside her, "This is my friend, Mr. Townsend. On the day of the family disaster, he did not hesitate to clash with the Knights of the Holy Sword in order to stop the murderer's evil deeds, and I have not heard from him since he was injured and fainted—Mr. Townsend is my best friend of the Swarosia family!"
"This friend of yours is not very capable and has a bad temper. Hazel glanced at Townsend coldly: "However, there are very few young people who can face the Ninth Apostle and the Knights of the Holy Sword. ”
"Dear NV, if you want to say that I am a fool who does not know the seriousness, just say it, I can still bear it. Townsend slowly lowered his greatsword, he knew what Hazel was upset about, but he couldn't apologize to her for the guardedness he had just had.
He didn't do anything wrong, and he wasn't a soft-boned person who flattered and bent his knees when he saw an NV person.
"yes, that's what I want. Listening to Townsend's funny words, the expression on Hazel's face softened a little, but fortunately she didn't directly say "You're a fool".
"Thanks for the compliment. Townsend smiled, then turned his gaze to look at Wen Li: "Sister Wen Li xiǎo, then the phoenix tail huā chamber of commerce ......"
"The Crestoo Huā Chamber of Commerce belongs to the Swarosia family and was transformed from the Deep Blue Chamber of Commerce. Wen Li replied frankly: "The goods distributed by the Deep Blue Chamber of Commerce are provided by Aunt Hazel, and they have to operate in the Delenlia Alliance, so it is not in the name of the applicable family. But in the aftermath of the family disaster, this unintentional cover-up played a big role. ”
"I see. Townsend sighed secretly, since the Fengwei Huā Chamber of Commerce belongs to Sister Wen Li, then this time it will definitely not be able to be recovered, and someone's violent beating can only be in vain - strictly speaking, Sister Wen Li Xiǎo is the head of his family, and always will be.
"In this case," Sister Wen Li Xiǎo saw Towngson's god sè: "The Thorn Rose Chamber of Commerce should be?"
"The Thorn Rose was formed by me, and it was not built well, and it was built blindly. Townsend didn't intend to hide anything, and let go of all hostile gestures: "This matter is more complicated, I can't understand it in a few words, please wait a minute, I'll deal with the following things first." ”
The reunion was a joy, but Townsend hadn't forgotten that there was still a group of people in the hall downstairs staring at him with big eyes!
"Feel free to do so. "Sister Wen Li Xiǎo is always so understanding.
Townsend stepped out of Mén and took two steps across the corridor to the fence. He held the greatsword at his feet in his right hand, and with a heroic lift and bend of his left foot, the soles of his feet stepped on the fence. Reached into his pocket with his left hand, took out a tobacco and stuffed it diagonally into the corner of his mouth, and then pinched a match with his thumb and forefinger, and the red head rubbed the matchbox against the matchbox and knocked it on his knee.
"Whew!", the blue and red flames lit the tobacco.
In the silence of the audience, the extinguished match was flicked into the spittoon in the distance by the fingers. Townsh, whose face was indifferent, spat out a few smoke rings, and a vulgar, arrogant, domineering, and reckless image that could not be questioned by any one was set up by him in this way.
Townsend began to look down, his cold gaze slowly scraping over the faces of everyone in the audience through the thin green smoke exhaled. Anyone who was seen by this gaze couldn't help but feel their hearts beat, they didn't know what the hell the hell this black-clothed warrior had in his heart......
The footsteps sounded, and Sister Wen Lixiǎo's old butler walked behind Townsend and said "sorry" and walked behind Townsend. Townsend secretly praised in his heart: Sister Wen Li Xiǎo is still so smart. With the presence of this old butler, the pacification scene will be simpler.
And Sister Wen Lixiǎo's subordinates are always so interesting: although the old housekeeper is very old, he has a straight waist and is very graceful. There is always a reserved and gentle smile on his face, which makes people feel very relieved. But he was also very rigorous, there were no folds on the black sè dress, and even when he stepped downstairs, the span of each step was exactly the same.
"Good evening, rich men. You don't have to know my name or my origins, because I don't want to dig through my roots. Looking around the hall, a smile suddenly bloomed on Townsend's face: "The scene just now was just a joke between our friends, don't care! If someone can't put it down and can't figure it out, then settle accounts with me, fist and sword ability, brother and I will accompany you to the end!"
Townshend's words are very straightforward and practical, and he is not afraid that these rich people will not understand.
Towngson's attitude was also very strong, but for the sake of the previous sword, no one on the scene dared to refute him.
"Besides," said Townsend, pleased with his deterrentness, "to celebrate something that you know + passion will kill you, we have thorn rose for this meal - no one is allowed to fight with me!"
The people below opened their mouths in surprise, if they hadn't been able to beat him, I'm afraid someone would have stood up and sprayed Tang Sen: Is there such a thing as you to invite you to dinner?
"If you give me face, everyone will eat and drink openly, you must eat well! You must drink well!" Townsend smiled again: "Where's the menu?"
"It's coming, it's coming!" This kind of hostel's hospitality is not afraid of death, a xiǎo man hurriedly held the menu, tiptoeing xiǎo ran to the side of Townsend, and handed it over from afar: "Distinguished guests, the dishes of this restaurant are here, the exotic flavor and taste are excellent, they are our signature dishes!"
"This, this, this, neither. Taking over the five pages of the menu, Townsend flipped through it casually: "All the rest." ”
"Huh?" the hostess's eyes widened a little, and his waist bent a little lower, "What did you say, guest?"
"All over! one set per table!" Dumping the menu into the hostess's arms, Townsend once again lowered his gaze to the downstairs hall. He saw that the old butler was whispering to the leader of the phoenix tail, so he said, "The ban just now is nullified, and the big guy can act as he pleases, just as I didn't show up tonight - Howden, give the order to go down and lift the siege of the town; ”
As Townsend spoke, he made a strange gesture in his hand, and Howden nodded in agreement after reading it, and then put the red and blue flags on his belt and walked out of the inn without looking back.
But when the others heard Townsend's words, they couldn't help but think in their hearts: The banner shown by the strong man of the tribe just now was Thorn Rose was not wrong, then this black-armored warrior of Thorn Rose, he actually led people to surround Vakale?
Is the strength of the Thorn Rose so strong? Isn't that a Xiǎo force that has just arisen in the north of Quelsa?
Under the astonished and suspicious gaze of the rich landowners, Bennet, who was covered in bandages, went upstairs and staggered to Townsend - because he wanted to knock people before, so he, the bitter master, was entangled in such a way and died of disgrace.
"Tear this thing down. Townsend whispered to him, "I can only give you ten minutes to go into the room to meet a few guests." ”
"No problem. Bennay's strange words and deeds were already somewhat tolerant of Townsend's strange words, so he was not at all surprised when he heard this "headless and brainless" command.
In Bennett's thoughts, Townsend probably found the other party's interlocutor and wanted to change himself into the negotiation.
Benneid removed the bandages three times and two times, and then carefully arranged the outfit on his body, as detailed as a warrior about to go into battle. In fact, he is indeed a warrior on the spot, and every strand of his hair is full of meritorious deeds!
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Townsend asked the hostess to bring him some drinks, and he sat down in the corridor and enjoyed his food.
