Chapter 287: Socializing
The small red moon gemstone has the best blood-bright halo, magnificent color, and dazzling luster, as if a dazzling pearl attracts all the eyeballs in the hall.
The Red Moon Gem was a gift from Daniel, a truly priceless gem that could be used in various fields and could be refined into a holy weapon. For example, the Blood Shadow Emblem is a typical Sacred Artifact Emblem, which can enhance the meditation speed of the warrior and speed up the rotation speed of the fighting spirit; the Red Moon Gem can also be ground into powder and added to the medicinal materials as the main ingredient to prepare the Blood Shadow Secret Medicine, Dry Bone Poison, etc., if it is ground into a triangle, and the inlay technology is enough, he can also make a high-quality piece of equipment have the effect of devouring blood and cutting, which is very useful in battle......
In short, this is a rare gemstone, its excavation needs to be excavated from more than 100,000 bloodstones, and if you are not lucky, you may not find one of 100,000 bloodstones.
The reason why he took out the Red Moon Gem was because Duan Lie felt that this gem was really not of much use to him, and he knew very well how to find the Red Moon Gem from the ore vein, there would be one in a thousand-meter-long chicken blood mine, and the excavation location was very exquisite, and those who didn't know might not be able to find it in their lifetime, but as long as they understood the characteristics of the Red Moon Gem, they could easily find it.
The reason why he gave this Red Moon Gem as a gift was also because Duan Lie didn't have anything too suitable on him, and even he felt that some high-quality secret elixirs were more precious than the Red Moon Gem, which was considered from his own considerations.
In fact, he also wanted to fight for Rouya, after all, Lingxin Landang chose Fang Jie in addition to abandoning the Duan family, which directly caused Rouya to live in pain for a long time. Even for this, the gifts taken out should not be too shabby.
Although the Red Moon Gem did not have much value to Duan Lie, its own preciousness was well known, so when he took out the Red Moon Gem, there was a gasp in the entire wedding hall, and those nobles who were full of envy, flattery, and admiration were even more unscrupulous.
Among those present, I am afraid that only Duan Lie's mother and son were from the lowest background, but at the same time, the gift that Duan Lie took out was the best of the best, and this huge contrast made people feel unbelievable.
Fang He's face became extremely ugly, you must know that even when the Fang family held a wedding banquet, the sum of all the contributions might not be comparable to this piece of Red Moon Gem, not to mention the engagement gift that Fang Jie gave to Ling Xinlan. In fact, if the Red Moon Gem was given by someone else instead of Duan Lie, then it would be nothing, the key is who Duan Lie is, that is the person who once had a relationship with Ling Xinlan, he suddenly appeared and gave such a big gift, isn't this a slap in the face of the Fang family?
Ling Zhan was sweating profusely, in the final analysis, it was because this gift was too valuable, he really didn't dare to accept it, holding the boxy box, Ling Zhan suddenly felt his hands tremble uncontrollably, and the pebble-sized red moon gem in the box suddenly became extremely heavy.
casually looked at the granddaughter behind her, the crimson little face showed a look of guilt and remorse, and biting the vermilion lip gloss was even more unbearable. Now she regrets as much as she wants, thinking in her heart, why you weren't so good at the beginning, why you didn't treat me so well before.
Ling Zhan sighed in his heart, and quickly calmed down, although Duan Lie had no relationship with the Ling family and could not become the son-in-law of the Ling family, the relationship between them was not too stiff, maybe it was not bad to maintain such a relationship with him.
After thinking about it, Ling Zhan put a little chagrin and remorse behind him, took the box and said, "Duan Lie, I can't accept it." With that, he wanted to refuse the Red Moon Jewel back.
Duan Lie smiled, stretched out his hand and pushed it on the box, and said, "Spirit Patriarch, what's polite, don't you look down on this thing?"
Ling Zhan shuddered, and quickly shook his head: "No, no, how could it be, it's just that the Red Moon Gem is too valuable." When he said this, Ling Zhan was quite sincere, after all, it was impossible for a family like the Ling family to get such a superb gem.
How do you know that Duan Lie refused to take it back, and said with a smile: "Is it valuable? No, I'm still afraid that the Red Moon Gem won't be able to take it, in case I let Lord Craig know that what I sent out will lose the face of the Appraiser Alliance Guild, I'm afraid I, a senior consultant, will also do it." β
Only then did everyone remember that Duan Lie also had the title of a senior advisor, and they were in awe.
As for these words, everyone knew that it was a joke, but no one laughed out, because they were only surprised. Listening to the meaning of his words, it seems that Duan Lie came on behalf of the Appraiser Alliance Guild this time, which is a bit of a line, who dares not to accept it.
Ling Zhan was slightly stunned, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, he knew that Duan Lie could not have been appointed by Craig, but with Duan Lie's status in the Appraiser Alliance Guild, after saying this, it was impossible for Craig not to admit it, which meant that the Ling family could climb to the high branch of the Appraiser Alliance Guild in the future, and his status in many social occasions would be greatly improved.
Ling Zhan couldn't help but be moved to tears, the Ling family was even counted as a second-rate family in the entire Tianfeng Empire, and now he could finally have some qualifications to talk to the upper-class family.
If it weren't for the fact that there were too many guests and friends in the hall, Ling Zhan really wanted to bow to Duan Lie at this time, this face was not for everyone.
After thanking Duan Lie, the wedding banquet officially began, Fang Jie and Ling Xinlan went up to the second floor to change their wedding dresses with their own thoughts, and stepped into the wedding hall in a peaceful and melodious and solemn music.
In the end, she still married Fang Jie, although Duan Lie's appearance was like a breeze blowing a pool of autumn water, in the end, it still couldn't change this fact.
As Duan Lie himself, he naturally does not have the mind of losing his beloved woman like Duan Lie in the past, that is, Rouya is washing her face with tears, as if she remembers her hard-working son.
The wedding customs of the War Spirit Continent are not troublesome, and after the host's high-pitched wedding greetings are over, the wedding banquet is officially announced.
A variety of delicacies and pastries were served, and the guests enjoyed and drank to their heart's content.
At this time, Duan Lie didn't leave, he had been by Rouya's side, and the little girl named Tilis came over and patted Duan Lie's shoulder very bluntly: "Hey, I can't see it, it turns out that you are that Duan Lie." β
"Which Duan Lie?" Duan Lie asked knowingly shaking the wine glass in his hand, smiling and teasing this little girl like a porcelain doll.
Tilis giggled, as if she remembered some rumors, but didn't say it, and after laughing enough, she asked mysteriously, "Hey, are you really an appraisal grandmaster?"
"What do you say?" Duan Lie didn't admit or deny it, and the angry little girl pouted.
At this time, Rouya affectionately pulled the little girl over and asked, "Tilis, how old are you this year?"
"I'm fourteen years old today...... she said proudly.
On the War Spirit Continent, she is already an adult at the age of fourteen, but Tilis's development seems to be very late, and her small breasts are not as tall as ordinary fourteen-year-old girls, but she shows it arrogantly, and this kind of behavior is a joy for Duan Lie's mother and son.
Rou Ya smiled, and her expression flashed a little disappointed: "It's just a little smaller, otherwise it's quite suitable." β
When Duan Lie heard this, he almost squirted out the wine he had just sent into his mouth, it seemed that Rouya was planning to make herself a family.
Who knew that Tilis retorted angrily: "Aunt Rouya, I am not young, I am old enough to get married." β
"......" Duan Lie was speechless, this girl really dares to say anything.
At this moment, a well-dressed middle-aged man walked over and said in a reprimanding tone, "Tilis, don't be rude. β
Duan Lie looked up at this sturdy man, less than forty years old, with a beard on his face, very majestic and majestic, came to Duan Lie's side, the middle-aged man made a standard aristocratic etiquette, and introduced himself: "Your Excellency Duan Lie, hello, I am Tilis's father, the leader of the Iron Mad Mercenary Regiment, Tav Ladd. β
"Iron Mad Mercenary Group?" Duan Lie suddenly realized, this name was not unfamiliar, he had seen it on the list of the Cold Wind Exchange, the Iron Mad Mercenary Group was one of the three major mercenary groups in Cold Wind City, although its strength was not top-notch, but its name was definitely not small.
Duan Lie stood up, returned a noble salute, and said, "Hello, I have admired your name for a long time. β
Seeing that Duan Lie didn't return the salute at all, Taaff Rad was stunned for a moment, you must know that he is only a small mercenary captain, only the strength of a third-level war division, and even the spiritual warfare is inferior in terms of status and status, under normal circumstances, there is no chance to contact a high-level figure like Duan Lie, and today is also a coincidence, just saw his daughter greeting someone he didn't know, and he was still a little dissatisfied in his heart, but he was meeting with a big man, and he didn't have time to pay attention to it, how did he know that Tilis was on the famous Duan Lie consultant, Taaff was taken aback, and hurriedly rushed over to make friendsγ
However, Taaffe also knew that he couldn't do too much flattery, which would make people look down on him, so he said without being surprised: "Tilis is spoiled by me, and I apologize to the two of you on behalf of her abruptness." β
Rouya had never received such a big gift, so she quickly stood up and said, "No, Tilis is very cute." As she spoke, she looked at Tilis and said, "Tilis, if you like it, you can come to Auntie's house at any time to play." β
Tilis is simple-minded, and now she knows who Rouya is, so she jumped to her feet and said, "Really, I heard that Auntie's house is bigger than the city lord's mansion." β
Many of the guests looked at each other in a strange way, and Tilis stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to say any more.
Duan Lie, on the other hand, had a depressed face, it seemed that Rou Ya really regarded herself as her own son, and now she had begun to think about her life's events, what a headache.
