Chapter 989: Promise
Chapter 989: Promise
A moment later, Lin Lei stood outside a vast mansion.
It was an extremely luxurious mansion, the walls of the mansion alone were expensive, and there were two huge jade carved flame lion beasts on both sides of the door, although the carving skills were not very clever, but their value was still not to be underestimated.
This is an extremely wealthy, ancient family!
Moreover, this family has several clansmen who serve in the Finlay Kingdom and hold a lot of power, which can be described as one of the most powerful families in the Finlay Kingdom, second only to those top wealthy families and kings.
"The Lucas family. Lin Lei had a smile on his face: "It's finally here." ”
The treasure of the Baruch family's inheritance, the war knife "slaughter", is in the hands of the patriarch of the Lucas family.
Lin Lei exhaled lightly, restrained his smile, and walked to the guards outside the gate of the mansion.
"Stop!" There are two guards at the door of the Lucas family mansion, these two guards are fifth-level soldiers, and they are considered to be strong men in the middle of the army, seeing Lin Lei coming, one of the guards immediately scolded: "This is the Lucas family mansion, idlers are not allowed to enter!"
The other guard was even more expressionless and said, "Little brat, this is not the place for you. ”
They didn't take Lin Lei seriously, because Lin Lei looked too young, at most fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was dressed in shabby clothes, dressed in sackcloth, no different from the ordinary teenagers in those villages and towns outside the city.
"Boss, these two guys are so annoying, do you want me to go up and tear their mouths?"
"Don't be impulsive, babe. Lin Lei hurriedly stopped Beibei, then looked at the two guards, and said, "I am Lin Lei Baruch, a son of the Baruch family, I have something important to see the patriarch of the Lucas family, and I also ask the two eldest brothers to report it for me." ”
"The Baruch family?" the two guards were at a loss when they heard this.
One of the guards asked the other, "Have you heard?"
The guard who was asked shook his head: "I haven't heard of it, what about you?"
"I haven't heard of it either. ”
As the guards of the Lucas family, they all know the power of the Finlay Kingdom very well, but they have never heard of the Baruch family, there is no doubt that the Baruch family either does not exist at all, or it is just a small family, and it is not qualified to be compared with the Lucas family at all.
They had seen many such people who tried to climb the Lucas family's small family, and they could meet them every once in a while, so they classified Lin Lei into this category.
"It doesn't matter who you are, if you don't have an invitation from the Lucas family, get out of here. The guard grimaced and said in a deep voice, "Don't be an eyesore here." ”
Bei Bei was so angry that his teeth itched: "It's too much!"
Two fifth-level warriors, Bei Bei can easily kill them. You must know that it is a seventh-level demonic beast, and it is a divine beast devouring god rat, even in the face of an eighth-level warrior, it is not afraid at all.
"Boss, this Lucas family is so arrogant, let's just grab it. There was a fierce glint in Beibei's little eyes.
"Don't be mischievous. Lin Lei's soul said: "The treasure of the family's inheritance, it is best to take it back in an upright way, it is best if the other party can voluntarily hand it over, it is really not possible, and then consider other methods......
Lin Lei had already made a decision in his heart, if it was not necessary, try not to use force.
After all, the Baruch family is an ancient family that has been inherited for 5,000 years, although there are not many people who remember the Baruch family now, but it is not completely no one remembers, Lin Lei does not want the Baruch family to be discredited as a robber, for the glory of the family, Lin Lei was influenced by his father Hogg and valued it very seriously.
Of course, if the soft one really doesn't work, then the hard one can only come!
Taking a deep breath, Lin Lei gave up his intention to explain to the two guards, he opened his mouth directly, and his voice was like a silk thread, passing through the mansion and entering its interior: "Lin Lei Baruch, a son of the Baruch family, ask to see the patriarch of the Lucas family, and ask the patriarch of the Lucas family to show up!"
Neither of the guards heard the sound.
When they saw that Lin Lei was still there, they couldn't help but be a little angry.
However, before they could scold, a voice came from inside the mansion: "Let him in." ”
The two guards froze for a moment, but then stepped aside, with some curiosity in their eyes.
With a smile on his face, Lin Lei walked into the door of the Lucas family's mansion, and soon saw a figure, a middle-aged man.
"Hello, Lynley Baruch, right?" the middle-haired blond man smiled, "I'm Kelivin Lucas, you can call me Kelivan." The patriarch of the Lucas family is none other than my uncle. ”
Compared with the two guards outside the mansion, Kellivan appeared more educated, polite, and had an aristocratic temperament.
"Hello. Lin Lei said politely.
"Let's go, my uncle is waiting for you in the living room. Kelivan laughed.
While leading the way, Kelivan said: "The Baruch family, I have heard the uncle mention, it is a great and ancient family, which once crisscrossed the Magnolia Continent and won the reputation of the dragon blood warrior family, and is called the four ultimate warrior families along with the other three families. Unexpectedly, the Baruch family has been inherited for 5,000 years, and there are still heirs. ”
Kelivan is very good at talking, even if the Baruch family has declined, not even a small nobleman, he does not mention it at all, but picks it all out.
Hearing this, Lin Lei couldn't help but have a good impression of Kelivan, even though he knew that Keliwen was complimenting him.
Under the leadership of Kelivan, Lin Lei and Bei Bei came to the living room.
In the living room, a silver-haired old man couldn't help but light up when he saw Lin Lei coming, and immediately stood up and said very politely: "You are Lin Lei Baruch, right? Lin Lei, inside please. ”
"Hello, Patriarch Jeb. Lin Lei said politely.
After entering the room, Jeb didn't rush to speak, he looked at Lin Lei a few times, and then said: "It is worthy of being a member of the legendary dragon blood warrior family, at a young age, your body is indeed so strong, and I can feel that your qi and blood are very vigorous, like a sun, maybe, you will be able to reproduce the glory of the Baruch family in the future......"
He did feel that Lin Lei's momentum was extraordinary, but to say that Lin Lei's qi and blood were vigorous or something, it was nonsense.
Because Lin Lei restrained his breath, ordinary people couldn't sense it at all, and even a ninth-level warrior couldn't detect Lin Lei's power.
It's just that Lin Lei's means of transmitting the sound just now made him feel that Lin Lei is extraordinary, and this young man's strength is probably not ordinary.
is so young, and his strength is extremely extraordinary, and his future prospects are limitless!
This is the reason why Jeb has such a good attitude towards Lin Lei, if Lin Lei was older, or his strength was worse, he would probably have sent someone to blow Lin Lei away, not everyone is qualified to shout in the Lucas family.
"Patriarch Jeb has won the prize. "Lin Lei has received aristocratic education since he was a child, and although he does not have the title of nobleman, he is no worse than other noble children in terms of etiquette.
When Jeb saw this scene, his eyes were even more appreciative.
"Lin Lei, I don't know why you came to our Lucas family?" After a moment of greeting, Jeb returned to the topic.
At the mention of this topic, Lin Lei restrained his smile and became serious.
He looked at Jebu and said solemnly: "Patriarch Jebu, as far as I know, the treasure of our Baruch family's inheritance, the war knife 'slaughter', is in your hands, you should know the meaning of the war knife 'slaughter' to our Baruch family." At that time, the patriarch of the generation of the Baruch family sold the war knife for his own selfish desires, which became the shame of the Baruch family, and this shame has been remembered by our Baruch family for generations, and each generation of patriarchs hopes to get back the war knife 'slaughter' and wash away the shame of the family......"
"I hope that Patriarch Jeb will endure the pain and give the sword 'slaughter' back to the Baruch family. Lin Lei's voice was very low, and his eyes were also very firm, "For this reason, no matter what conditions Patriarch Jebu proposes, Lin Lei can do his best to complete it!"
Hearing this, Jeb, who was originally pleasant, suddenly turned ugly.
He was a little angry and looked at Lin Lei: "Lin Lei, your request is inevitably difficult for some strongmen!"
"Although the sword 'slaughter' originally belonged to your Baruch family, but ......" Jeb said in a deep voice, "I didn't steal it from your family, but spent a lot of gold coins to buy it from others, and it also has an extraordinary meaning to me!"
Lin Lei's brows furrowed slightly, this Jebu seemed to be a little stubborn.
However, before he could speak, Jeb said: "I'm old, and I don't hold any position anymore, and my biggest hobby is collecting." This war knife 'slaughter' is one of my most precious personal collectibles...... You want me to cut my love, no way!"
"Don't worry, Patriarch Jeb, please listen to what I have to say. Although Lin Lei felt that things were a little troublesome, he didn't give up, he said calmly: "I said, I didn't want you to return the war knife 'slaughter' for free, I know that this war knife 'slaughter' is of extraordinary value, I can promise that as long as you are willing to return it to the Baruch family, you can put forward any conditions, I will try my best to complete it!"
"Any conditions?" jebb scoffed, "at such a young age, but dare to speak so wildly!"
"If I say I want a Sanctuary Demonic Beast, is it difficult to do it, can you really get a Sanctuary Demonic Beast for me?" Jeb scoffed.
A joke, but Lin Lei took it seriously.
He raised his head, looked at Jeb, and asked seriously, "Is Patriarch Jeb serious?"
"What?"
"If I get a Sanctuary Demonic Beast, you will return the War Knife 'Slaughter' to the Baruch Family?"
"No, you ......" Jeb was a little stunned, but looking at Lin Lei's serious look, he actually said in a ghostly manner: "Of course, I, Jebu, am also a figure with a head and a face, and if I say it, I will naturally not regret it! If you really get the Sacred Domain Demonic Beast, this sword will be 'slaughtered', and it will be yours!"
Return the knife "slaughter"?
This will never be possible!
Jeb takes the "slaughter" of the war knife very seriously, because it was bought by him for hundreds of thousands of gold coins, and now it is worth millions of gold coins, which is the most precious treasure he "picked up", which proves his vision, and to this day, he often shows off to others to satisfy his vanity.
After stepping down from the throne of the kingdom, his power was greatly reduced, and his prestige in the Lucas family was much less than before.
Only this war knife "slaughter" can make him feel the value of his existence and reflect his sense of superiority.
"Okay, this matter, it's a matter of words!" Lin Lei doesn't care if Jeb is joking or not, as long as he has the opportunity to recapture the war knife 'slaughter' openly, he will not give up, and catching a holy domain demonic beast is not a difficult thing for him, he is too late to be happy, how can he refuse?
"If you don't mind, Patriarch Jeb, I hope to make a certificate that you and I can sign as a basis for the future. Although Lin Lei was happy, his mind was still calm, and he proposed to sign a paper contract to prevent Jeb from admitting it afterwards.
"Isn't there something wrong with this kid's brain?" Jeb couldn't help but look at Lin Lei suspiciously.
However, it is good that with the evidence, the Baruch family has no excuse to make trouble.
He didn't think that Lin Lei could get a Sacred Realm Demonic Beast!
"Kelivan, you go to the study and get the paper and pen. Jeb instructed Kelivan.
Although this agreement seems a bit bullying, Jeb doesn't care at all, he has to break the mind of the Baruch family.
