Chapter 534: Abduction
When destruction is coming, people will always react in a variety of ways, some people are drunk and dreaming of death, trying to get rid of the pain by paralyzing themselves, and some people dare to face the bleakness of life, the greater the pressure, the higher the fighting spirit, but the latter always accounts for only a small part of the population. Because of this, warrior is a respectful title, and if everyone has enough courage, then warrior is nothing unusual.
Edward VIII's life became extremely erosive, indulging in singing and dancing every day, and his aging body miraculously regained its vitality, knocking down one noblewoman, ladies, and maids after another, and even using violence to force them to submit, regardless of his reputation. In fact, who would interfere with him at this time? Edward VIII's close ministers were more crazy than Edward VIII, and instead of dissuading Edward, it was better to try everything that he usually did not dare to do, and it would not be in vain to live a lifetime, and it must be admitted that madness can indeed bring people a different kind of pleasure.
Regardless of whether Edward VIII was cowardly or stupid, after all, he sat on the throne, he was in sufficient conditions to make a judgment on the current situation, with the current strength of the Shining Sand Empire, it was no longer a confrontation, at most it was a struggle, and he did not believe that he would have any future.
The so-called upward and downward effect, the mansion of the Shining Sand Empire, the Diamond City, is full of the smell of drunkenness and gold, if Lin Sheng from another world runs here, he will definitely give his quatrain to the people who are drunk and dreaming of death: Outside the mountain, Qingshan Building, Wailou, West Lake, when will the song and dance be closed. The warm breeze smokes the tourists and makes Hangzhou Bianzhou! Of course, several place names here have to be changed.
In the Zuo Minister's mansion, a grand banquet was underway, and Edward VIII was busy with his own overthrow and politely declined the Zuo Minister's invitation. Most of the other officials and nobles attended the banquet.
A few young people were talking in a low voice in the corner of the garden, and during this period of time, the young people who served as middle and low-ranking generals in the new army formed by Edward VIII were not popular, and it stands to reason that they are not qualified to attend the banquet held by Lord Zuo, but when the building is about to fall, who cares about what qualifications are not qualified? Not to mention that these young people are very promising, and they will live well in the future against the Mao Empire, whether they win or lose. The hundreds of thousands of troops who surrendered before. All the senior generals were replaced, but the middle and junior generals were all promoted.
When the army of the Ma Empire came over, the officials and nobles would be lucky enough to survive. It is impossible to continue to have the current status and power, and it is said that Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess, who betrayed the empire, began a major reshuffle in the province of Morro. Promoted commoners from all walks of life, almost all of the original nobles were revoked from their titles and even imprisoned. If you have a good relationship with the young people in the army, or become relatives, you can at least get some security after they surrender to the Ma Empire. Everyone has their own abacus under the influence of this particular context. Lucky young people were treated like never before, even though they were now only civilians.
From time to time, one or more girls came up with graceful steps to talk to the young men, but the young men seemed very unenthusiastic. The girls also politely said goodbye, today Lord Zuo Xiang invited dozens of young generals, of course they can't hang themselves on a tree.
Two more people came down the path, this time a man and a woman, tall and handsome, and petite and pretty. The relationship between the two looks very affectionate. Each holding a wine glass in his hand whispered something as he walked.
The couple was about to walk past the young men. The man stumbled suddenly, and the wine in his hand spilled out, splashing the woman in the face.
The make-up technique of the wizarding world was still very primitive, and a glass of red wine was spilled, and the pretty face turned into a ridiculous face on the spot, and the woman screamed, paused, raised her hand, and gave the man a slap, and then ran away in a huff. This kind of thing is changed to anyone who will be angry, two hours of hard work and makeup ruined, once it makes people laugh, not to mention it, she has to go back to makeup immediately, and when she walks out again, maybe the banquet is over, how much fun?!
Several young people let out a low laugh, and one of them looked left and right, and whispered, "Little John, it seems that Her Royal Highness the princess doesn't have a good temper, ......huh?"
"When the adults call, I'll settle these accounts with her one by one!" said Little John, touching his face and muffling his face.
"So...... How many times have the same thing happened?"
"There's no time for you to talk nonsense. Little John swept around: "The target is on the stone bench on the east side, and the two girls are dressed very plainly, you can see when you go over." ”
"The big guy isn't here, is it?" a young man whispered, "I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid of delaying the adult's business." ”
"No, it has been lured away. Little John replied, "But you don't have much time, and in a moment Zuo Xiang and the big guy will be back." ”
"I understand. The young man waved his hand: "Everyone is doing according to plan." ”
The young men immediately split into two groups, one headed east, and the other returned to the drawing-room, and little John went the other way, thinking to himself what was one thing, and it was another thing for Her Highness the princess to be angry, and he had to apologize.
Sure enough, on a stone chair in the east sat two girls dressed in ordinary clothes, and their appearance was also very ordinary, so although it was very lively here, there were handsome guys walking back and forth from time to time, but no one paid attention to them, and no one stepped forward to talk.
The two young men looked at each other and walked over slowly, and one of them smiled and said, "Can Miss sit down here?"
Maybe they haven't seen the big world, maybe they have been bored for a long time, and suddenly someone took the initiative to talk, which made them feel flattered, and the two girls seemed timid, and they didn't say yes, they didn't say no, they just let go to the side.
The young man who sat down first sniffed the air deeply and smiled, "It's so fragrant!"
The two girls saw each other so intoxicated, and couldn't help but look around suspiciously, it was now early summer, and the spring flowers in the garden had been exhausted, where was the fragrance?
"I mean the smell of you. ”
The two girls suddenly turned red, and their movements were a little nervous and stiff, giving people a feeling of helplessness.
"The whole living room, and most of the garden, there is still the smell of fat powder of those ladies and ladies everywhere, and I can barely endure it for a long time, and I am about to collapse! ”
The two girls' faces turned redder, but they didn't speak.
The young man who had been stumbling swept his eyes: "The two young ladies are magicians?"
"It's not that we can't practice magic. One of the girls replied, "You're a swordsman?"
The young man screamed in his heart, and then he nodded, showing a look of surprise, "How do you know?"
The girl looked a little smug and stretched out her little finger to point: "Hee-hee......"
The young man looked down and saw a long sword hanging from his waist, and he patted his forehead with a sudden realization: "It turned out that my old buddy betrayed me." ”
"How old are you, old man?"
"I'm twenty-four, what about you?" the young man paused, "I'm sorry I shouldn't have asked you this." ”
"It's nothing, I'm sixteen. "The girl didn't care.
The most difficult thing to talk about between strangers is to start, not to mention that the young man has a little ability in his mouth, and he is flattering, coaxing the two girls to smile, no longer as tense as just now, and the atmosphere is becoming more and more harmonious.
The other young man never spoke, and when his gaze swept away, he always showed a look of helplessness, to him the two girls were idiots, and his companions had become idiots, and the topic of conversation was even more meaningless. He doesn't know how to find meaningless and easy topics when he has a problem with girls, and he always talks about life and philosophy, which can only make people stay away, and even simply classify it into the category of psychosis or perversion.
No matter how difficult it is, there will always be a time when you get to the end, and there is a sudden violent magic fluctuation in the direction of the front building, and then the fire rises into the sky.
The guests attending the banquet were in an uproar, and some of the women screamed, and one figure after another floated into the air around the mansion, heading in the direction of the front building. There were no guards to be seen at the party, but this was a fire in this life, and a large number of guards came out of nowhere, and they rushed to the front building. If it's a natural fire, there's no need to be so nervous, the problem is that everyone senses the violent magic fluctuations!
"Let's go and see!" the young man, who had not spoken, drew his sword.
"Wait!" Another young man looked solemn, "Don't you know?
"What do you mean?"
"I think An Fei is deliberately trying to bring people together! Now the less crowded the place, the safer, let's find a place to hide first, and wait for Lord Zuo and Lord Kremlin to come back. The young man waved his hand, "Follow me." ”
The two girls had been frightened and turned into a discoloration, and if another young man had spoken of it, they might have thought seriously about whether it was reasonable or not, but the warrior in front of them was kind, kind, warm, and funny, like the big brother next door, and they had no reason not to believe it, and besides, they had no idea of their own, and obediently followed the young man into the depths of the garden.
