"Roddy, do you know? There are so many dead people in Xianzhi City, in order to prevent the spread of the plague, the army will send the corpses infected with the plague to the wilderness outside the city, and destroy a burning canyon, which is called the 'Alchemy Furnace'. ”

On the way to meet Veran, Tom talks about the Knights of the Devil Butterfly, but when he speaks, it seems to be a hundred and eight thousand miles away. But after a change of words, he continued: "Nine days ago, an army of two hundred people transported the corpses as usual, but that night, they were ambushed and attacked by a mysterious army, and not only were they all wiped out, but all the corpses were robbed!"

"Snatch corpses, are these people necromantic totems!"

"Who knows, anyway, after the military department learned about this, they suspected that it was done by the necromantic totem, so they sent an elite army of 5,000 people, disguised as plague corpses and escort teams, to lure that army to appear. Tom said: "But do you know that the commander of the army saw through the plan of the military department, came to a counter-encirclement, and in half an hour, the whole army of the elite army was defeated!" He shrunk his neck in fear, "What's even more terrifying is that the next day, His Majesty the Emperor was furious and sent the Sixth Corps to fight against the plague...... The Sixth Corps had 12,000 men, all of whom were elite soldiers who had experienced a hundred battles, but that unit only dispatched 300 people to conduct guerrilla operations, and the Sixth Corps was completely wiped out in just three days!"

Jiang Nan was shocked, "12,000 dozen 300...... Is this possible?"

"The generals of the empire also thought that this was not at all in line with military common sense, but the result of the investigation was...... Tom spread his hands out, "and an officer who had fled reported that the army called itself the Knights of the Devil Butterfly, and that their tactics were extremely secretive, and that their bodies were wandering, and their swords were slashed like a ghost, and they could not do any harm at all...... Alas, no matter how strong the Sixth Corps is, they are all ordinary human beings, and they can't beat the ghosts!"

He smiled bitterly: "Moreover, the head of the Ghost Butterfly Knights, the guy who calls himself 'Ghost Butterfly No. 1', is not only very familiar with the weaknesses of the empire's military formation, but also extremely good at commanding in battle! After analyzing his military ability, the military department unanimously agreed that if Ghost Butterfly No. 1 is willing to join the army, he is definitely one of the top military commanders on the continent!"

Jiang Nanqi said: "Then this matter has ...... with Weilan"

"On the fifth day of the appearance of the Ghost Butterfly Knights, our Rhine family's escort team was also attacked by them, and the captain of the escort team at that time was Veran!" Tom shook his head helplessly, "Although Miss Veran came back alive, you know her temper, she was killed by someone, and she was stabbed twice, and now when she mentions the Ghost Butterfly Knights, she is so angry that she whips and beats people!"

Veran was injured...... Jiang Nan felt a strange feeling in his heart, as if he was gloating: his aunt's legs were cut off by Wei Lan's eldest brother, and Wei Lan was slashed twice, which should be a very happy thing.

But he remembered his strange relationship with Veran: in fact, three months after Jiangnan's reincarnation, he found out that Veran seemed to have a very special affection for Roddy, as if he regarded Roddy as her sweetheart. Later, several temptations proved that Veran really loved Roddy with all his heart!

At that time, Jiangnan was stunned, hey, brother, I'm just an unlucky guy who deserves to find a girlfriend, Luo Di, what are you doing as a slave who left me this 'emotional legacy', do you harm me?

He began to deny Roddy and Wilan's relationship, and tried to avoid Wilan. But Veran didn't know about Jiangnan's resurrection of the corpse, in her opinion, Luo Di, a negative man, was a serious illness, and suddenly didn't admit the relationship with his wife!

Think about Wei Lan's temper, if this eldest lady has such an idea, what will she do to Jiangnan? That's right, Wei Lan likes to whip Jiang Nan and likes to watch Jiang Nan's humiliation scenes, but whenever she finds an excuse to make Jiang Nan difficult, she will always cry in her heart and say, "Damn the negative man, where is the old lady sorry for you, you actually treat me like this!?"

Alas, Jiang Nan shook his head, he really didn't know what the weird feeling in his heart represented, he just knew very well that if he cut off Alyssa's legs at Count West, there would be no future for him and Veran!

...... The process of meeting Veran was very simple: almost with Tom's words, Veran agreed to give Jiangnan freedom, but Tom whispered, "Roddy, do you know that Miss Veran promised you freedom, not because she was kind, but because she has become the third class of the family's 'seventh-class family lineage', and is the leader of you and thousands of other civilians affiliated with the family - even if you are given freedom, you will not be able to escape from her palm!"

Tom also explained, "The so-called seventh-rank family genealogy is the internal management system implemented by the Rhine family—everyone in the family is divided into seven ranks: the highest first rank, including the old man Longduo, the family governor, and several hidden family elders...... "The second level is the powerful princes assigned by the family to various places and sit on one side, as well as several high-ranking family officials, such as the Jiji steward, and the other are several young masters who have the right to inherit the family." ”

"And the third rank where Veran is located, although he has no inheritance rights, he has real power, and he has the right to manage the family commoners in Xianzhi City......" Tom said: "Roddy, I am now a sixth-class: mid-level officer, and you are a seventh-class: ordinary civilians and soldiers! But don't worry, don't you still have the identity of Murphy's vice-captain, I will help you operate, and in a few days, you will be promoted to a sixth-class officer." ”

After listening to Tom say this, Jiang Nan was already walking on the streets of Yanjing with Weilan and Tom.

Yudi is waiting for Gangnam to report at the Imperial Culinary Academy, and Veran is going to send Gangnam to school in person!

The Imperial Culinary Academy's aristocratic district in the heart of Xianzhi City is different from the corpse-strewn streets of the other two districts, and it is simply a bustling paradise: the streets are bustling with traffic, pedestrians, shops on the street are bustling, and every now and then, you can hear the roar of excitement coming from the arena in the distance.

The reasons for this double heaven of ice and fire are very simple: first, there are a large number of totemic powerhouses gathered in the aristocratic district, although they are unable to save the entire city, they can still protect their family from being infected by the plague.

Another reason is that, very cruelly, the army has erected a cordon between the noble district and the civilian area, once a nobleman is infected with the plague, he will be thrown into the civilian area, and the common people in the civilian area, regardless of whether they are infected with the plague or not, are not allowed to enter the noble district during the period of military control!

It was under this kind of powerful pressure that Xianzhi City magically retained a piece of pure land.

"Oh, Roddy, you're a civilian now, but I can tell you, you still have to listen to me!"

Walking on the road, Lola beside Veran looked at Jiangnan triumphantly, this girl followed Veran to Xianzhi City, and the tide rose, and she became the housekeeper of the fifth-class Veran Villa who was taller than Tom!

Jiang Nan glanced at Lola, not interested in dealing with her.

"Roddy, how dare you look at me like this!?" Lola pulled out the leather whip from her waist, "I'm a fifth-class family member, you seventh-rank......"

At this time, Jiang Nan didn't need to pay attention to the stinky girl who was a villain, but he looked at the front of him and suddenly said, "Dear Miss Laura, a question: you are a fifth-class member, what should you do if you meet a second-class family member?"

Laura was stunned, "Of course it's to bow down and greet you!"

"Then what are you waiting for?" Jiang Nan pointed to his feet, "Don't kneel down yet, Allah, this pig brain, looking for death?"

Lola's eyes widened, but only two seconds later, she honestly knelt down.

Because right next to Jiang Nan, a golden-red carriage drove slowly by, without a canopy, similar to the concept of a convertible sports car in the previous life. There was a boy in a fancy costume sitting on it, and a black giant man more than two meters tall, muscular, and with orchid fingers!

Laura didn't know the prince in the fancy clothes, but she knew that the black man was the important minister of the family, who had served the old man Long Duo for thirty years, a second-class member, and his position was similar to that of the Jiji butler in charge of the palace!

"Oh, isn't this the kissing Miss Veran? Stop, stop!"

Butler Jiji jumped out of the carriage, grabbed Veran, who was about to bow and salute, and said with a smile: "No courtesy, no courtesy, Miss Veran is now the most distressed granddaughter of the old man, and the promotion to the second class is also a matter of waiting, so what is it polite to others!"

Wei Lan also coped with a few polite words, Tom stood up respectfully and respectfully on the side, not daring to say a word, while Jiang Nan was looking at the young man in fancy clothes curiously: he was fifteen or sixteen years old, with long silver hair and a handsome face, and the appearance between the eyebrows of this young master was five or six points similar to Jiang Nan!

At this time, the young man in the fancy costume looked arrogant, leaning on the seat of the car casually, holding a tobacco in his mouth and swallowing the clouds and spitting fog beautifully, he found that Jiang Nan looked at himself again, and also glanced at Jiang Nan lightly. Then his eyes lit up, spit out the cigarette butt in his mouth, and pointed at Jiang Nandao: "Jiji, look at this person, he looks a little similar to me, ha, interesting, interesting!"

Ji Ji turned his head to look at Jiang Nan, the first time the two met, Jiang Nan was a grizzled slave, he didn't even see Jiang Nan's appearance clearly, but this time he looked carefully, and said in surprise: "Ah! It's really very similar!" and Tom hurriedly pushed Jiang Nan's back and whispered: "Roddy, do you know? This knows the third heir of the family, the grandson of Old Man Long Duo, the second member, Young Master Ribes!"

Isn't Ribes the eldest young master who is about to marry two noble and extraordinary brides, and the family sent away 100,000 slaves?

Jiang Nan bowed, "Venerable Young Master Ribes......"

"Bastard!" Butler Gigi said angrily: "Veran, who is this person, he doesn't know how to kneel down when he meets Young Master Ribes?"

"Forget it, Gigi, just let him stand!"

Ribbes jumped out of the carriage in a hurry, regardless of his identity, he grabbed a handful of mud in a puddle of dirty water on the side of the street, and then came to Jiang Nan and nodded with a smile, and suddenly pointed to the sky and said, "Look, there are two suns in the sky!"

Jiang Nan was stunned, he naturally wouldn't have been deceived by this kind of trick, but Ribbes didn't care if Jiang Nan was fooled or not, 'poof', a ball of mud hit Jiang Nan's face, and he smiled back and forth, "Interesting, interesting, it's been ten years, I haven't done such an interesting thing for ten years!"

For a while, everyone was stunned, and it was a very insulting thing to paste mud on people's faces on the street, but the innocence of Young Master Bess here made people look at it, and they didn't think he was insulting people, but they just felt that this was a kind of frolicking between children!

"Master Ribes......" Gigi pouted in surprise, "what are you doing here?

"Have you forgotten? When I was six years old, there was a child in my family who looked very similar to me, nicknamed ...... Waste."

Under the reminder of Ribes, Gigi's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he clapped his hands with Ribes and said, "Eat, sleep, and fight the waste!" Hehe, what about the dear young master Ribes, it turns out that you remembered that waste, but it's a pity, that waste has been dead for a long time!"

The two great figures of the Rhine family, one is the chief of the inner house, and the other is the third heir, and they laughed together on the street without grace!
