Chapter 278: Strange Man and Plum
Now, all the fried potato chips have been harmed by one of Adonis's vengeful people, Elena looked at the other dishes on the table, a sadness, dislike of the taste, and was in a bad mood by Adonis, Elena slammed the dishes and chopsticks on the table, simply stopped eating, and just glared at Adonis fiercely.
The monkey looked left and right, and saw that Ouyang Feng, Qingfeng, Pei Di and the others turned a blind eye to the farce of Elena and Adonis, eating their own food while chatting, without the intention of persuasion, and no one stood up to uphold justice, the monkey hesitated, and just wanted to fry another potato chip for Elena, the bright moon beside him pulled him and shook his head slightly.
The monkey looked at Mingyue suspiciously, not knowing why this three-master who was usually not nosy and only thought about fighting all day long wanted to address himself. Mingyue dropped the gnawed bones in her hand, and whispered while wiping her mouth: "Let it be, let that little girl suffer a little loss, there is still a long way to go, which is good for her mood improvement." The monkey was surprised to hear Mingyue actually say so much to himself, nodded, and sandwiched Mingyue with his favorite crispy bone, and then stopped looking at Elena and Adonis and began to enjoy the food he made himself.
Everyone had eaten dinner, and Elena, who was hungry without a bite of food, smiled and seduced Adonis, saying that she wanted to teach him some hidden real skills, Adonis was obviously a little moved, but after seeing Elena's bad smile, she immediately reacted, this is Elena's revenge, and she wants to torture and humiliate herself again, although Adonis is a little natural, but he is not stupid. Not even more masochistic. He shook his head again and again in refusal. Under the pretext of going home to recuperate, he ran away in a smoke.
Adonis has learned a lot from Elena at the end of the day, and he urgently needs to calm down and figure it out, and then practice before he moves, even if he doesn't leave today and learn more, Adonis feels that he doesn't have the ability to digest it in a short time.
Adonis of Wolf Bรจi sneaked back to his quarters. After changing into clean clothes, he sat alone in the corner, rubbing the bruises on his face, while carefully recalling Elena's teachings, and gradually, the whole person was immersed in it, and even his old son Roderick came to see him several times without paying attention.
Roderick heard from the people below that Adonis had returned, and his face was bruised, as if he had fought with someone and suffered a loss, and Roderick felt most sorry for his only son. When he heard this, he was furious, and he was about to go crazy and take someone to clean up the murderer who dared to bully his son. But thinking that Adonis has been following Ouyang Feng and them, even if he is beaten, it is Ouyang Feng and their hands, thinking of Ouyang Feng's background, Roderick suddenly calmed down, but, as a father, a father who loves his son, Roderick can't watch his son being bullied, even if the other party's background is big, he has to ask for an explanation.
Out of reason, Roderick did not impulsively go directly to Ouyang Feng and them, but planned to ask Adonis first, ask what happened, and then say, if it was his son's fault, then even if he was beaten, he could only endure it, but if it wasn't for Adonis's fault, Roderick decided that even if he offended Ouyang Feng and their children with a big background, he would ask them for an explanation.
When Roderick came to Adonis's room for the first time and saw the bruise on Adonis's face, Roderick's heart hurt, but seeing that Adonis seemed to be concentrating on something, Roderick hesitated for a moment, and finally didn't bother, after all, this was the first time he had seen his uncompetitive son do one thing so intently.
After more than an hour, when Roderick came to Adonis's room again, he found that Adonis was still silently thinking about something, Roderick frowned, turned to leave, and ordered his subordinates not to disturb Adonis.
After another hour or so, Roderick came to Adonis's room again, and found that Adonis was still staring at the wall in a daze, but the expression on his face was much richer than before, and he chuckled from time to time, no longer frowning as before, which made Roderick feel very relieved.
In the middle of the night, after dealing with all the things of the day, Roderick, who came to see his son again, gently pushed open the door, but was stunned to find that the room was empty.
Roderick hurriedly called the subordinates guarding the door, and after some inquiry, none of these subordinates knew the whereabouts of Adonis, and they had been guarding outside, and did not find that Adonis had left, which made Roderick's heart sink and said loudly to the guards not far away: "Gather people, find me, you must find the young master, you bring a few people to prepare horses, if you can't find Adonis in a while, let's go to Haoyougen to have a look." The captain of the guard answered the order, and just as he was about to turn around and dispatch his men, he found a figure not far away, flashing and heading straight for Roderick, the chief steward.
The vigilant guards also noticed the anomaly, and immediately unsheathed their swords and rushed towards the middle of the figure and Roderick, and divided a part of their men to say that Roderick was firmly protected.
The captain of the guard shouted in the direction of the figure: "What person, come out." โ
With the reprimand of the captain of the guard, a well-proportioned man in black wearing a veil walked out from behind the tree, facing the many guards and the guards who kept coming after hearing the alarm, the man in black did not panic at all, a pair of bright eyes were shining, laughed, and said sharply: "I am the strange man Yizhimei, who is known as a thief, and I came here today for one thing, that is, to steal a mustache from Roderick's butler's chin, haha!"
Although Roderick's guards are not strong, they are all masters who have practiced for many years, and they have all been around Roderick for many years, and they are very familiar with the chief steward Roderick and the people around him, so familiar that they can distinguish their identities without glasses, just by feeling the breath, when the man in black appeared in everyone's sight, the captain of the guard was the first to recognize that this arrogant little thief who threatened to steal Roderick's beard was actually the son of the chief steward Roderick, Adonis.
The guards also recognized Adonis's identity, and they all looked at each other and couldn't help laughing, and the captain of the guard looked back at Roderick helplessly, asking what to do.
As a mid-level magician, Roderick's mental power is naturally stronger than those guards, and as early as when Adonis first appeared, Roderick recognized the person as his spoiled son who likes to mess around.
Roderick wanted to shout at Adonis for his nonsense, and then grab a butt board, but remembering Adonis's anomaly just now, Roderick hesitated for a moment and decided to wait and see what happened, and not to expose Adonis's little tricks for the time being, to see what this guy was going to do.
Roderick smiled faintly, gave the captain of the guard a look, calmed his breath, and then said to the smug Adonis, "Strange man, don't you?
Adonis was actually very nervous, although he hadn't done it so blatantly before, but he also secretly tried to sneak into Roderick's room secretly to prove to his father that he had the talent to be a thief, but every time, before he could get closer, he was discovered and identified by the guards, and today, Adonis learned a little secret method of concealment and whereabouts from Elena, and came back and pondered for a while, and finally figured out the key, and not long ago, Adonis used the skill he just mastered to successfully slip under the noses of a group of servants, and was not discovered by anyone, which made Adonis's confidence skyrocket, and he took another turn in the mansion, and finally felt that Adonis, who was invincible in the world, decided to challenge the guards and his own old man who had been defeated many times in the past.
Now, seeing that the old man and a large group of guards did not recognize him, Adonis was overjoyed, and was full of praise for the mastery that Elena had given him, and decided to stand up and learn more skills even if he was mistreated by Elena in the future.
Hearing Roderick's question, Adonis crossed his hands on his hips, looked up to the sky and laughed: "Old man, you don't need to ask about this, I came here today to remind you, be careful when you sleep, it's best to call more people to protect you, I will steal your beard within three days, haha, haha!" After speaking, Adonis, who was dressed in black, half-squatted down, turned around sharply, and disappeared from everyone's sight in a few blinks with extremely fast speed and strange body routes.
At the moment when Adonis disappeared, there was an 'oops' sound behind the big tree a little farther away, followed by a 'plop' sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the direction from which the voice came was pitch black, but for cultivators, such a distance, it was still possible to see clearly, just after Adonis turned to leave, more than a dozen guards and Roderick who had good cultivation watched Adonis crash into the big tree in a panic, and then fell on his back, the guards almost didn't laugh when they saw this scene, but they had to forcibly endure it, so as not to be seen by Adonis, a young master who likes to be funny, and the fact that his identity had been revealed.
The captain of the guard forced a smile, coughed lightly as a cover, and under the instruction of Roderick, who was full of black lines, he ordered loudly: "What are you doing in a daze, chase me, you must catch this strange man." When the guards heard this, they scattered around with relief, searching for the traces of the strange man Yizhimei, but the strange thing was that Adonis was hiding in the direction, but no half of the guards went to check.
