Chapter 177: Hood's Worries
"Father, I'm back......" Bunian looked solemn and solemn, and his right fist was clenched and placed on his left chest.
"It's good to be back...... It's good to come back......" At this point, Hood couldn't say anything else. Hood's image is slightly different from what Albert and Singh tell about, and he doesn't seem to be a difficult person to communicate with.
Hood mounted his horse with Bunian and continued his way deeper into the city of Bilmer. At this time, Aaron noticed that behind Hood, there was a black-skinned dwarf all the time. When he saw Bunian, there was a grim look in his eyes.
"That bastard is Picole, Hood's godson. Singh whispered.
"He looks more valued than you do. Aaron said.
"There is no way around it, although both of us are adopted orphans, but I am only the son of an ordinary dwarf, and his status is much more noble than mine. Singh whispered.
Aaron licked his lips, it turned out that there was not much difference between the dwarves and the human race, and the bloodline and status of the race still affected future generations.
At this point, Albert broke away from the line in front of him. When Aaron came to him, Albert smiled slightly: "The patriarch arranged for me to send you to rest. Today is the first time that the patriarch and the young lord have met in five years, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to have time to meet with Lord Razor, so please forgive me. ”
Aaron nodded, it was human nature, and he would have been surprised if Hood had met him on the first day.
Eventually, Aaron's entourage, led by Albert, came to a sprawling complex. The complex was a two-story building, which made Aaron feel somewhat at home, and felt like he was back in a Terran city. Outside the complex was a high wall, which should be six or seven meters high, a little higher than the buildings inside. Outside the wall, Aaron saw a team of dwarves surrounding the complex along the wall. It looked like he had been imprisoned and a prisoner, and Aaron's heart was extremely uncomfortable.
In the face of Aaron's questioning, Singh smiled wryly, while Albert gave a slight explanation, such as that this has always been a place where foreign guests live, and the reason why there are so many soldiers outside is entirely because of their safety.
To be honest, Albert's words were not at all convincing to Aaron, who was a two-man man, but he had no other way than to pretend to understand now.
It had been two or three days since he arrived in Bilmai, and Aaron had not only not seen Hood in those two or three days, but had not even been in touch with Bunian. It also makes Aaron wonder if something is wrong with Bunyan.
......
Upon returning to Bilmai, Bunian felt as if he was in a dream.
The tall and spacious house, the strange and precious objects, and even the fine porcelain that even the Duke of Mitulin would not have, if someone told him that it was a collector's residence, Bunian would not have thought it strange in the slightest, on the contrary, he would have taken it for granted, but now, this place is indeed his own residence.
After returning, Bunian immediately told Hood about his recent experience. Hood was furious and vowed to find out who had harmed Bunian. But there were no clues, and after two days of investigation, he chose to give up. Bunian is also like a wilted leaf, without the joy he had when he first returned.
"Father, this thing should be worth a lot of money, right?" This is, Bunian's eyes are on a bottle-shaped porcelain, the body of the bottle is painted with some plants and dwarves in various colors, it is very exquisite, even a big old man like Bunian can see that the price of this thing should be expensive after all.
"Don't move!" Hood, who was eating, saw that Bunian had set his eyes on the porcelain, and immediately jumped up, and walked in front of Bunian in three or two steps, "Son, this thing is precious? It costs a lot of money to buy this thing." ”
"How much?" asked Bunian.
"A thousand gold coins. As he spoke, Hood stood between Bunian and the porcelain, fearing that Bunian would smash the porcelain in a fit of rage.
"A thousand gold coins, Dad, is your brain rusty? A thousand gold coins can you buy it? What can it do?"
"What do you want to buy is my freedom, it doesn't seem like it's your turn, right?" Hood's tone immediately stiffened.
Bunian forcibly suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and chose to remain silent, he had a feeling that the current city of Bilmai was no longer the dwarven capital he was familiar with.
"By the way, father, Razor has been here for three days, so let's find a chance to meet him. I think this will be an opportunity to bring the Terrans and the Dwarves closer together. ”
Bunian now wants to meet with "Razor" as soon as possible, on the one hand, "Razor" has already told him, "Razor" wants to ask about Lady Winnie, and Hood, as the person concerned, is the most suitable person. On the other hand, although Mosley has mastered a lot of the Dwarven trade, he still feels that he should give some opportunity to "Razor", after all, "Razor" is his only external power.
"It's just that I'm afraid that the kid named Razor will have a hatred for us dwarves, after all, Lady Winnie died on the territory of the dwarves. Hood said worriedly, "You've been in contact with Razor, what kind of person do you think he is?"
"He's a young guy who really wants to make a difference. Decisive, but not reckless, and clear about right and wrong, I didn't take my anger at Lady Winnie's death because I was a dwarf. I think that even if he wanted to pursue Lady Winnie's affairs, he would do so on the facts, and would not involve anyone else. ”
"If so, it would be good to meet him, for he is not only Lady Winnie's son, but also your savior. But they can't have too many people, just four or five people. Tomorrow, I don't have anything to do tomorrow anyway. Hood thought for a moment and said.
"Then I'll go tell them and let them prepare. Bunian breathed a sigh of relief that he could only feel safe if he could see "Razor".
"Don't be in such a hurry, finish the meal first. ”
"No, I think I'm in a hurry. Bunian grinned reluctantly at Hood.
At this time, a black-skinned dwarf walked and invited him into the house, bowed slightly to Hood and Bunian, and said, "Patriarch Hood, Patriarch Bunian, Moseley has come to see you." ”
Bunian glanced at the dwarf who had entered, and it turned out to be Picole, and his disgust for him was unabashedly revealed. Picor saw Bunion, smiled defiantly, and then consciously set his eyes on Hood.
- Damn, bastard.
Bunian clenched his fists. If there were people he knew who would frame him, Picole would definitely be the number one person to be suspected.
"What? Moseley is here, please. Don't go yet, Bunian, I'll introduce you to a very powerful person. Hood smiled heartily.
"Moseley?" Bunian frowned, thinking of the scene when he had just entered Toru City.
-- It's that hateful fat man. It's also good to meet the man who called the storm in Bilmai, and see what he has to offer his father an obsession.
Bunney thought silently in peace of mind. (To be continued.) )
