Chapter 59: The Will of the Old Man (5)
"To be honest, I never expected that your school board would have so much to do."
On the golden sand, a few benches are arranged in a circle, and a small table is placed in the middle, on which are several cups of lemon tea with ice cubes, and freshly baked snacks that still smell like a roast.
The three women each occupied one position, chatting in a three-legged position, while the rest of the seats were vacant, with several sets of fishing gear.
The rest of the men on the board of trustees were fishing on the beach, except for the old man who was devoted to the Buddha, who said that he could not see the killing, and it happened that he had not recited the sutra and prayed to the Buddha today, so he chose to give up this small gathering.
Hearing Su Enxi's emotion, Laurent took off his sunglasses, looked at her and smiled: "What, can't the black swan on Wall Street stand this kind of high-intensity meeting?" I've heard that you can go all day and night without sleep while you're working. ”
"Pure fiction." Su Enxi stuck out her tongue and pinched Laurent's face: "But then again, it's really a water spirit, if I were a man, I would definitely miss your appearance." ”
"Listen to what you mean, it seems that my figure is not satisfactory?" Laurent subconsciously listened to the joke in his chest, which caused a burst of laughter from Su Enxi and Hannah.
"One thing to say, I've really seen a better body." After laughing, Su Enxi grabbed Laurent's thigh and put on a rogue expression: "Little girl, you still don't have the vision of an uncle." ”
"It's still so indecent." Laurent's smile trembled, the first time she met Su Enxi was at a model catwalk a few years ago, it was an event attended by the wife of a British dignitary, although she was very disgusted with what this person did, but for the sake of face she still had to accept the invitation and attend the event.
Unintentionally watching the catwalk, which was full of false praise, Laurent turned his head to look around, only to be surprised to find a new face next to him who had never seen before, eating potato chips from there.
This is the VIP seat of the catwalk, and when you get up and stretch out your hand from their position, you can easily touch the model on the stage.
The faces of this position have always been fixed, and they are all selected from a fixed crowd, a total of those people, and Laurent got the news that the VIP tickets for this catwalk were hand-issued by the wives of the dignitaries, and everyone was specially consulted during the catwalk time, if there are new faces joining, someone must have been kicked out of the VIP list of the dignitaries.
Laurent was thinking about whether to say hello to this casually behaved 'VIP', but he didn't expect the latter to talk first:
"Did you come to see the monkeys dancing too?"
As she spoke, she also pointed to the woman on the stage who was trying to add drama to herself with her skirt.
Laurent couldn't hold back for a while, and laughed out loud, attracting the strange eyes of everyone around him, including the models on the stage.
Realizing her gaffe, she suddenly panicked, and at this moment, Su Enxi stood up and shrugged her shoulders, and waved her hand: "Forget it, it's not interesting, I'll withdraw, it's better to go and see the circus performance if you have this kung fu." ”
When the words landed, the woman had already walked out of the door with her handbag, and Laurent looked at the catwalk that was still going on on the stage, hesitated for a moment, and chased out.
The two then became good sisters, discussing where the clothes were flawed at a brand's fashion show, and going on a shopping spree in the mall with their arms crossed.
Su Enxi doesn't feel like those aristocratic ladies at all, she has to pick this and that when she drinks tea, she pretends to be the same as some elegant lady, she is not pretentious, it is easy to get along with her, and she will not turn her face because of a little joke and become a plastic sister.
This kind of person is very rare in the circle, but Laurent feels that he is lucky to meet one and become good friends.
"Ladies, is there anything funny? I'd like to hear about it too. ”
Laurent's thoughts were interrupted by a sudden voice, and she turned back to see the silver-haired and white-bearded old man holding a hook, and a half-meter-long sea fish hanging from it below, still struggling, its tail flipping and splashing water droplets down Ange's solid chest and down his abdominal muscles.
Hannah blushed slightly and turned her head halfway away.
"Why, don't you want to tell me? Or is it a topic that men can't participate in? Ange saw that the three of them did not speak, and did not continue on this topic, shaking his wrist, and the body of the fish also trembled:
"Ladies, how do you want to eat how to make fish? I recommend charcoal grilling, after all, this fresh grilled fish and whisky are a favorite accompaniment for sailors. ”
"Put more sugar." Laurent suggested.
"Adopted. Are there any other requirements? Ange looked at Su and Hannah.
"I can't eat spicy." Hannah muttered quietly, apparently not used to talking to Ange and the others.
"OK, what about you, new comrade?"
"Me? I'm casual, as long as I can eat and fill my stomach. Su Enxi patted her abdomen.
"Understood."
Ange put the fish on his back, said something to the waiter beside him, and then walked to the beach again, took out his folding knife, and began to scrape the scales.
Looking at the figure stepping on the beach with one foot deep and one foot shallow, the three of them were stunned for a long time, but Su Enxi was the first to speak:
"I feel like the principal is ...... It's quite charming, they're all so old, it's amazing. ”
"He's always been like this, he's obviously a 100-year-old man, and he can always make those 20-year-old supermodels tempting." Laurent sighed: "At such an age, I'm not afraid to flash my waist." ”
"I haven't touched ...... I don't know much either, Sister Laurent, what kind of person do you think Headmaster Angers is? ”
Looking at the butler on the other side, Hannah suddenly asked in a low voice, with a little alarm in her expression.
Su Enxi also nodded, looking at Laurent, waiting for the latter to give an answer.
"What kind of person is the principal...... Let me think. Laurent put his hand on the end of the hair on his forehead, thought for a while, and said:
"Headmaster, he's a good guy and a bad guy."
"Can the good guys and the bad guys still get together?" Hannah's delicate eyebrows moved slightly: "Sister, are you saying that the principal has a somewhat split personality?" ”
"It's not divided, it's quite unified, the principal just lives for one goal, as long as it doesn't violate his principles, everything is negotiable." Laurent shook his head: "He will send blessings for bad luck, and he will also pick up a folding knife and stab the enemy in the chest, whether he does it voluntarily or involuntarily."
Anyway, if we go against the principal, there will be no good fruit to eat, this is the consensus of our secret party.
Besides, the headmaster is also very good......"
Laurent just wanted to continue, but was stopped by Su Enxi with his eyes, he raised his head and saw the old man leaning over with the sliced fish in one hand and the oven in the other, followed by a maid carrying various condiments.
"Just put it here."
Ange motioned with his chin to the servant to put down the spices, set up the oven himself, added some charcoal to it, spread a layer of barbed wire on the charcoal fire, and took a tong and sandwiched the raw fish meat on it.
"It's better to bake and eat fresh." With a smile, the old man divided a plate for each of the three ladies, and then sat on the beach, turning over and greasing the fish slices with tongs, the fish was cut very thinly, and after a short time it had completely lost the color of raw meat, and the white smoke mixed with the smell of meat slowly rose, accompanied by the sea breeze into the distance.
Seeing that the grease made a sizzling sound, the old man struck the fish several times with his fork, and saw that the two sides had been roasted golden brown, Ange sprayed a layer of vinegar on it, sprinkled some salt, and after the salt crystals were fully dissolved, he gently spread a layer of granulated sugar.
"It may taste a little unsatisfactory to your liking, but let's try it." Ange had put most of it on the plate, served it on the table, and opened a can of whiskey himself and drank it from the still grilling fish.
The three of them looked at each other, and finally Hannah did not resist the temptation of the scent, swallowed a few times, and took a fork and put a piece in his mouth.
"It smells so good." The girl felt the tender fish in her mouth and couldn't help but admire.
"Of course, this is the most anticipated show of the sailors on their journey, catching a big fish, dissecting it, grilling it, dividing it evenly, and the sailors have a big party on the boat with beer and fish." Ange also smiled when he saw Hannah's appearance, but the next second the conversation suddenly changed: "Laurent, do you remember what the purpose of Magellan's circumnavigation was back then?" ”
"In search of the White King's bloodline." Laurent subconsciously got up and replied: "Magellan came from a well-known mixed-race family, with excellent blood, he had a feeling with Longwen when he read ancient classics, and obtained the information that 'the blood of the White King lives on a vast island, and is very close to the extremely cold land', so he applied for an expedition, led a fleet around the world, came to South America, and kidnapped two local natives as descendants of the White King and gave them to the king of Portugal at that time, only to find that they had no blood at all, in fact, they were ordinary people. ”
"Exactly, worthy of Laurent, if you hadn't dropped out of school at that time, you might have been the best student among the members of the secret party." Ange didn't hesitate to praise and turned his head to look at Hannah: "Forgive me for my old mistake as an educator, I want to ask questions when I look at people." Ask the little girl a simple question, do you think the White King bloodline really exists? ”
"I think...... White King Blood...... I guess it doesn't exist. Hannah also got up in a bit of a panic and blinked: "Wasn't the White King completely destroyed by the Black King?" How is it possible that there are still descendants handed down. ”
"There is no right answer to this question." Seeing Hannah looking straight at him, Ange smiled: "As Laurent said, Arino records that the descendants of the White King live on islands very close to the cold land, but we have searched countless small islands in the North and South Poles for so many years, but we have not found any trace of them. Despite this, we still can't just deny the existence of the White King's bloodline. ”
"Hmm, got it." The girl nodded slightly.
"Ms. Su Enxi......" Ange looked at Su Enxi, who was nervous, and pressed down with his hands: "Don't be so nervous, you should be learning about these things for the first time, I don't have anything to ask in this regard." I'm wondering, though, what are your thoughts on our meeting? ”
"Idea...... It's still quite a lot, can you reduce the working hours a little, I can't bear it for eight hours at once. Su Enxi touched her waist.
"Today is just an exception, because I've been arguing with Frost for too long." Ange smiled bitterly, glanced at a few figures fishing on the beach, and looked back: "But you better get used to it, this kind of thing is very likely to happen in the next few days." Are there any other questions? ”
"Yes, yes, but it's just a simple question of mine." Su Enxi immediately said, she stretched out her finger: "Just now I heard you talk about the mixed race families in Europe, the mixed race families in North America, the mixed race families in Japan, and the mixed race families in Africa and South America, so why are there no mixed race families in the rest of Asia, such as China, such a big place, there are no famous mixed race families?" ”
"China...... Hey, that's a bit hard to tell, so I want to think about where to start. Ange rubbed the tip of his nose, sent a piece of fish meat to his mouth and took a sip of wine, and slowly spoke: "To put it simply, the ancient Chinese half-blood family is still quite famous, and the King of Bronze and Fire is said to have been killed by the dragon slayer family of the Han Dynasty. Each generation of emperors in the feudal society had a very deep relationship with the dragon slayer family at that time.
However, from the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, everything went wrong, and the subsequent Ming Dynasty. ”
"Ming Dynasty? The Zhu Dynasty? Su Enxi tilted her head and listened carefully to this piece of history that she didn't know.
"That's right, let's start from the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was valued by the dragon slayer family at that time at the end of the Wei Dynasty, and he became the next generation of emperors, and his two famous generals Xu Da and Chang Yuchun are both good at slaying dragons. The two assisted Zhu Yuanzhang to drive out the Mongolian iron cavalry, and Chang Yuchun was left with sequelae due to his battle with the Dragon King, and died violently in the camp in his twenties. ”
"Wait, Dragonlord?" Su Enxi couldn't help but shout: "Headmaster, you mean that the Yuan Dynasty was a regime supported by the Dragon King?" ”
"That's right, otherwise think about it, how could an outsider hold on to his rule for so long? According to our analysis, it should be the king of the earth and the mountain among the four monarchs who single-handedly created all this, he assumed the name of Genghis Khan, and used the second generation of his subordinates called Yizi to conquer the east and west, conquered most of the Eurasian continent, and then faked his death, I don't know where to enjoy everything silently. ”
"Indeed, the Central Plains has already worked out a method to deal with the nomadic cavalry during the Song Dynasty, and the destruction of the late Southern Song Dynasty is indeed a bit abnormal, it is not a simple corruption problem." Su Enxi held her chin in agreement.
"After all, it was a cavalry array composed of countless dragons, and the horses under their crotches were all mutants mixed with dragon blood, this iron army helped the king of the earth and mountains quickly destroy the Jin Kingdom, which belonged to the true nomads, and encountered resistance they never thought of when attacking the Song Dynasty, but in the face of absolute strength, everything seems not so important."
Ange took a sip of the liquor and continued slowly, "After that, the dragons celebrated their victory by carrying out countless massacres that provoked a human revolt. In order to deal with dragons, the half-breed family vigorously developed firearms, which was also the Shenji battalion of the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time incorporated the half-breeds into the cavalry team to fight with the dragons.
This was a great victory for the Chinese half-breeds, they even drove the dragon king to the North Sea to fish, countless second-generation and third-generation races were captured and executed in front of the world, and even some dragons at that time lost their will to fight when they saw the half-bloods. ”
"According to the principal, then China's dragon slaying family should be more prosperous." Su Enxi frowned: "The skill of supporting the dragon, even if Zhu Yuanzhang is a small person, he will not treat the mixed-race family behind him like this, he should know that if they can stand up themselves, they can abolish themselves." ”
"No, no, no, it's not a problem here, the relationship between the rulers of the Ming Dynasty and the mixed-race family was quite good, and the elite of the family helped the court several times when the court was in danger, just like Yu Qian, who was one of the leaders of the mixed-race family at that time, successfully defended BJ City under the offensive of the nomadic dynasty, and was later killed by the emperor It was just his escape plan." Ange's eyes deepened as he looked at the sunset over the water in the distance, his expression indescribable.
"There are generations of elites in the half-breed family, but they still can't resist the dragon king who has made a comeback and completely restored his strength."
"You mean......" Su Enxi looked up in amazement.
"That's right, the Dragon King once again led his army to enter from Shanhaiguan and occupy the Central Plains."
