Chapter 19: A Conversation Overheard

The so-called Summer Joy Festival, with Brian's head on the back, was born suddenly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Aegis City entered a sea of joy in an instant, and this power spread everywhere, and the city-states in the Fracture Plane also became lively, and then through the spread of the Toby Chamber of Commerce, even several cities in the Yamelo Empire were also sensitized, and the Rukai Continent fell into a carnival.

The people came to the streets, singing and dancing indulgently, dancing from dawn to dark, and the tavern barrels were moved into the streets, lowering the prices, and allowing the people to drink, and the drunken men and women were crooked, causing a burst of laughter. Some people even took out their washbasins and wooden barrels at home and beat them until late at night.

The palace was a different story, because of the rush of time and the lack of preparation, although it was not fully lit, it was well stocked, with a variety of fine wines and delicacies, long tables and specially invited bands to add to the atmosphere of the party. Heads and minds from all over the country put aside their work for a while, and rushed to celebrate the festival and visit Mrs. Doreen.

Brian helped her mother out of the room, and the old lady was beaming with joy and a smile as she watched her familiar children bow for herself. Congreve followed behind him, dragging Bob, and he was very happy, so he put on a decent dress, and dressed Bob so that he could see the world with him.

Bob's expression was obviously a little out of place, he wanted to escape, but he didn't have a chance, so he had to go to the ball, and he had a sad look on his face. But people didn't pay attention to him, he was just an old man's servant, and he was a little stupid, so naturally he didn't take it seriously.

At last Ms. Doreen was given the greatest satisfaction, and everyone was given enough face, and she showed the greatest enthusiasm to entertain the people, and to the sound of warm applause, the music sounded, and Doreen handed her hand to her son, and danced the first dance with him. Congreve was left to dry, mainly because he couldn't dance himself, and he had loved preaching and getting in touch with the upper echelons all his life, so he could only watch with a wine glass.

"Bob, you see, you have to learn to dance, otherwise it's a little embarrassing to be like me, you know, the first dance, I should have danced. Congreve poured a sip of liquor into his mouth, "Of course, you have to learn to drink some of the wine." ”

"I ...... I don't like to drink. Hughes remembered that he had never drunk before, and that alcohol was too stimulating for him.

"You haven't drunk it before, how do you know? Come on, try it, although Sarina's fat girl makes me look unpleasant, but she still makes it really good, especially this one is fascinated, the taste, the taste is nothing to say. Congreve picked up two more glasses from the table and handed one to Bob.

Hughes couldn't refuse, he had to drink it hard, Congreve also tilted his neck and drank it to the bottom: "Drink, be happy tonight, so many people are here, the king and courtiers of the Mist Kingdom, let's toast." ”

Hughes entered a glass of wine, to be honest, the taste was really good, a rich mellow aroma, mobilized all the taste buds, stimulated both sides of the tongue, very refreshing. But his alcohol consumption was really too bad, and he was so dazed that he felt dizzy and couldn't stand a little after a while, and although he didn't want to vomit, he was groggy and needed to find a place to lie down.

"It's drunk, hahahaha, Bob, you're going to exercise. Congreve also staggered, a little drunk, and the two "grandfathers and grandchildren" supported each other.

After Doreen finished dancing, she came to the table, and when she saw Congreeve's appearance, she was a little angry, and reproached: "Old man, don't show your appearance today, many people are watching, and you are not allowed to drink any more wine." ”

"I don't drink it, I don't drink it, I'm just a little happy. Congreve's eyes straightened slightly.

"Do you want to go upstairs and rest first?"

"No, no, this Bob when I saw it, I need to rest for a while. ”

"Yes, Auntie, I'm already dizzy, the soles of my feet seem to be stepping on cotton, and I really want to go upstairs and sleep for a while. Hughes said that he was still able to move, and he wasn't asleep, but he felt that there was a great opportunity to climb down the window and slip away.

"I'll have you lifted. ”

"No, I can do it myself. Hughes pretended to be very similar, staggered to the stairs, went up step by step, and when he reached the turn, he saw that no one was following, so he cheered up, went to his room, put the burden that had been placed under the bed, opened the window and looked out, and saw a patrolling soldier right below, and thought to himself that he could not go down for the time being, and wait for him to go elsewhere, and then start to move. At this time, there was movement in the corridor outside the door, it was the voice of a man and a woman, and Hughes could hear it, and the man's voice was Brian's.

"What's the matter, Hellois, what are you pulling me upstairs all of a sudden?" Brian smiled, "Haha, I see, you must have heard something from your sister and wanted to try my changes too." ”

"What's changed? I'm telling you to get down to business, don't come to those crooked ways. Helois looked around to make sure no one said, "Lady Barbara has come for me, I've gone to the underworld." ”

"The underworld!" Hughes's cold sweat came out, and he knew very well who could go to the underworld. The dark wizard is the first target of the human world, and it is also the duty of the Inquisition, I didn't expect Brian to have such a friend? This so-called great man, behind the scenes, is doing shady things! Hughes decided to listen to what they had to say, he held his breath, pressed against the door, and if someone found out, he immediately lay on the ground, pretending to be drunk.

"What is Barbara looking for you for?" asked Brian.

"She said she dreamed of Whit, do you remember, it was the big fat mage, he was there when we had our first meal, he was Barbara's nephew. Heroise said.

"Don't be funny, how can the undead have dreams?"

"I was also strange, but she said that she really dreamed it, and asked about my grandfather, and she wanted to know how my grandfather died in the end and what to do with it. "But I don't know, I can't get any news of them, so I'll go straight to you." ”

"Master Dunbar. Brian sighed, "I know these things, the goddess of wisdom told me, don't be sad to hear it, your grandfather's soul, and Whit's, are suffering in the temple, they are burned by a kind of heavenly fire, and it is said that it will take three years to completely burn down." ”

"Ah, they're still suffering!" Helois was shocked, his whole heart aching, "Why didn't Tessis save them?"

"How can Tessis save her, she can't explain to the heavenly realm, in order to be able to protect us, it is not easy for her. Brian said, "I've been thinking of a way to do this, but I haven't thought of any good ideas, the Great Temple of Khoringupun is not just going in and out, especially those taboos, if we want to act, we must succeed, fail, this is a major matter between countries, maybe there will be a fight." ”

Hughes behind the door was like being struck by lightning, he held his chin hard, so that his teeth would not chatter, it turned out that the Dunbar remnants who had been looking for so hard were here! Even the goddess of wisdom was a traitor to the heavenly realm!
