Chapter 623: Expectations
Out of the cave, the group stood on the hillside and chatted for a while, and Dodd said goodbye to Yaheng and the others, and went back to arrange manpower. A-Heng, Angelo, and Alger watched Dodd go away with a few juniors, and A-Heng said to Angelo: "Let's prepare too, now that Adonis and Elena have passed, the rest of the people don't know when it will start." ”
Angelo nodded and said, "Well, I'll go in and watch." ”
As soon as he took a few steps, Angelo remembered something and turned to ask Alger, "How old are you this year?"
Alger was stunned by Angelo's inexplicable question, and then subconsciously replied, "Fifty-four, what's wrong?"
Angelo smiled and said, "I'll just say, you're definitely not as old as me, these are okay, I'll see if Nina's little girl has anything to say." After speaking, he strode into the cave, and opened the prohibition inside, hiding the entrance of the cave.
Alger asked Yaheng with a blank face: "What's wrong with him, what does my age have to do with Nina?"
Yaheng laughed and said: "Nina just refuses to call Uncle Angelo, and keeps calling him uncle, Angelo is worried about this, and it is estimated that this goods will have to find Nina to theorize when they go back." Alger's face was black, and he was speechless for a moment.
The rice bucket, who had never spoken much, said: "Alger, you are only fifty-four years old, but I am already in my seventies, so I am also Nina's uncle." ”
Alger and Yaheng were speechless at the same time, very helpless about the arithmetic of the rice bucket, this thing was obviously only in his thirties, but he had to say that he was in his seventies, and what he said was calculated according to the method of the Minotaur.
Dodd took a few juniors at full speed and went straight in the direction of the spar mine. It took about an hour to walk. A few young people couldn't stand the rush anymore. Dodd could only slow down and give them time to recover.
Along the way, Dodd noticed a faint reluctance on the faces of several young people, and from time to time they exchanged heads and whispered, hearing the content of their conversation, Dodd realized that these young people with strong blood had a good impression of this lively and innocent little girl after seeing Nina.
Dodd sighed, stopped, and said, "Take a break." He will continue on his way and try to get back to the hedron mine before dark. ”
Everyone looked for a place to sit down, and Dodd hesitated for a moment and said to a few juniors, "Do you like Nina's little girl?"
A handsome young man in his early twenties felt that this was not a shameful thing, and he pretended to have the courage to nod and admit: "Yes, uncle, I have a good impression of Nina, and they are the same." We discussed it just now, and everyone competes fairly. Rest assured, we won't be unhappy with Nina. ”
Dodd slapped his forehead and said, "Do you really think I'm worried about your unity? ”
The young man who spoke before was stunned and said, "Why, uncle, you have never objected to us finding true love before. ”
Dodd said angrily: "True love? Do you think that the little affection you have for Nina now is true love? I think most of you admire other people's cultivation, so you can't tell what is love and what is admiration." Also, I tell you, don't even think about that little girl Nina, you don't deserve it at all. ”
Another young man was puzzled and said, "How can we not be worthy? We are members of the Weiqing family in the Holy City, what other people in this world are we not worthy?"
Dodd had long known that these guys, who were usually carried away by the family's reputation and strength, would think so, and Dodd talked to them about this to let them know the truth, even if they were the juniors of the Holy City family, they could not do whatever they wanted.
After sorting out his thoughts, Dodd sighed and said, "Do you know Ouyang Feng and the four people of Hongshang, Qingfeng, and Mingyue?" Ouyang Feng and their fame are in full swing in the major families of the Holy City, and these young people naturally know it, and they all nodded.
Dodd continued: "Nina is Ouyang Feng's person, it can be said that both Ouyang Feng and Hongshang treat her as a sister. ”
One young man said, "So what?"
Dodd glared at the speaker, and then said, "It's better to sue you, so that you don't have to do anything bad, otherwise if you anasy them, even I and Grand Elder Hawke won't be able to save you." ”
Without waiting for a few juniors to say anything, Dodd continued: "You still don't know, not only me, but even Great Elder Hawke has to be kind in front of Ouyang Feng and them, do you know why? The young people were in a commotion when they heard this, the name Wei Qing is a god in their hearts, uh, Wei Qing himself is really a god.
Dodd continued to speak in astonishment: "Do you know what Ouyang Feng called our Wei Qing Ancestor? ”
At this moment, several young people who were still a little unruly were all dumbfounded, they couldn't have imagined that Ouyang Feng was so violent, he actually called the ancestor uncle, and listening to Dodd's tone, the ancestor and that Ouyang Feng were still very familiar.
Seeing the sluggishness on the faces of several juniors, Dodd smiled faintly and said: "It's all clear now, I don't object to you pursuing Nina, but before that, you have to think clearly, whether you really like Nina or, if not, don't go and make trouble for me." Besides, Nina will definitely follow Ouyang Feng and them to leave this plane, and it seems that it won't be long before they leave, you look at your poor cultivation, do you think you have the ability to follow them to the intermediate plane?"
Seeing that the frustration of these little ones was almost over, Dodd changed his tone and said: "Okay, don't be depressed, say something that shouldn't be said, with your identity, what kind of woman are you looking for and can't find it? If you're looking for a girlfriend, I've got a couple of good candidates. The eyes of several young people lit up, since Dodd said so, then the other party must be outstanding and excellent, and they asked one after another.
Dodd secretly laughed to himself, coughed lightly and said, "Didn't you all see it in that cave just now?"
A young man scratched his head and thought for a long time, then said in amazement: "Aren't those few people in the cave mansion the wives of Yaheng's predecessors and Angelo's predecessors?"
The other young man reacted a little faster, and then thought of something, and said with a shocked face: "Uncle, you won't talk about those little girls who still have runny noses, right?"
Dodd nodded affirmatively and said, "That's them." Several young people were speechless for a while, and the age difference between the two sides was too much.
That's right, that's what Dodd thinks, he thinks that Yaheng and Ouyang Feng are so close, Ouyang Feng and they will definitely leave a lot of good things for Yaheng and the others when they leave, Dodd thinks that if his juniors can marry Angelo or Gael's daughter, they will definitely cheat a lot of good dowries.
Although, many years later, Dodd's hope was finally realized, a junior and Gail's youngest daughter were loyal to the couple, but Dodd's abacus was in vain, not only did not cheat any good dowry, but took out a large dowry, which made Dodd, who later became the head of the family, depressed for a long time, in order to get back some capital, Dodd was extremely shameless with the family from time to time to run to Gale to eat, what things caught his eye and took them away, so angry that Gale jumped to his feet and scolded every time.
The young man who had not spoken for a long time was thoughtful, and finally asked his doubts: "Uncle, you and Yaheng's predecessors are so close, can't there be any other reason?"
Dodd was relieved at first when he heard this, because this junior thought more deeply than the others, although he didn't think right. The smile on Dodd's face disappeared, and he said solemnly and solemnly: "I only say it once, you have all memorized it for me, I and Yaheng, Gail, Angelo, and a senior named Huolong Zhenren, when you see them in the future, you must be as respectful to me as you are, we are fighting side by side, we can entrust friends of life and death, there is no interest or other involvement, if anyone dares to ask such a question in the future, don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless." ”
It is difficult for people like Dodd and Dunbar to make friends who are from the Holy City, so they value friendship very much, and they are even better and closer than some members of the family.
Several young people saw that Dodd was angry, and finally knew what kind of relationship Dodd and Yaheng had, and kept Dodd's words in mind, for fear of angering the uncle who was most likely to become the next head of the family in the future.
The group rested for a while and continued on their way, returning to the spar mine before dark, where a city or fortress was also being built, and many workers were busy with the lights at night.
Returning directly to his office, Dodd asked a few juniors to rest, and sent someone to find the two deputy of Chelse and Hoth, without explaining the specific reason, but just asked them to summon half of the staff of the spar mine to stand by in the name of a drill, and set off early the next morning.
Chels and Hoth were both Yaheng's subordinates before, and they had a certain loyalty to Yaheng and others, but out of secrecy about the cave, Dodd did not explain the real reason to the two, and Chels and Hoth also knew that something big must have happened, otherwise Dodd would not have made such a big move, but both of them were very knowledgeable, did not ask much, and selected the most elite people after going back.
After a night of silence, as soon as it was dawn the next day, Dodd personally led the team to set out, accompanied by Hoss, and handed over the hedron mine to Chels to guard. Hurriedly marched all the way, crossed mountains and mountains, trekked through mountains and rivers, and only took a short break while eating, and finally, in the middle of the night, they arrived near the cave.
