Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The reception was much more sumptuous than expected, Jacqueline had heard that Jane had three family members, and that her mother had died when she was a child, but unexpectedly the dinner party was attended by many more people than expected, and the Raysucci family was in the majority.
This can't blame Jacqueline for her lack of knowledge, although she is also a nobleman, but it is only an inferior nobleman in a small country, the family business is not very good, and the members are thin, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a thin person. Although she had been in Genoha for two years, it was the first time she had ever seen such a grand banquet except for the previous one, and it was a private banquet
There were hundreds of people here, and Jacqueline only knew that Jane was a great nobleman in the mermaid kingdom before, but she didn't expect it to be so remarkable. In the face of the banquet attended by so many nobles, Jacqueline was very careful to restrain herself according to the etiquette taught in the school, and did not want to embarrass Jane because of her rudeness.
Of course, Jacqueline and her gang were still very successful in their etiquette training under the supervision of Fipley, and the only thing that was frustrating was a tentacle monster that was not treated as a chéngrén.
Chu Shou has been intoxicated with unfree self-absorption every time he eats lately, and every time he arrives, he will miss the unsightly three meals a day in Nazat before. Although these delicacies are all thanks to the economic benefits obtained by Chu Shou's naked plagiarism that shamelessly ignores copyright, this kind of thing does not arouse the shame of the little tentacle monster at all, but makes him proud.
But this dinner party made Chu Shou feel as if he had become the mollusk that ate offal at Nazat Academy again, and now he was being put together with a group of unknown animals
"Bastard, what animal did you dine with last time? It was in Colleen's private space, it was a rabbit-like creature called Lulumon, right?" Chu Shou looked at the messy group of pets around him, feeling very depressed.
Although this is a pile of pets, no one dares to underestimate these small animals, some pets are very valuable, and even a certain lady's "favorite baby". Therefore, their food is very rich, not to mention those commoners, even the luxury food that a small nobleman like Jacqueline has never seen, because it has everything.
But...... Even if Chu Shou's body is a tentacle monster, his soul is still a human being! No matter how delicious these foods are, they can't compare to the full sense of happiness of letting Jacqueline feed herself one bite at a time in a girl's arms!
Therefore, of all the pets, the tentacle monster is the laziest one, lying on the table limply, listless.
But at the moment, Jacqueline didn't notice the situation of her summoned beast. She is more concerned about the people around Jane, and she wants to see the boy named "Ho", who is Jane's younger brother and the most important person in Scarlet Snow's prophecy.
To Jacqueline's disappointment, there was not a single young man around Jane and her father, the youngest being Rui, and as for the other young men, she didn't think they were "Ho".
What makes Jacqueline care more is. Jane often whispered to her father at banquets, and often had a worried look on her face, although Jane tried to pretend to be calm because of etiquette, but anyone who knew her well could tell that something was wrong with her face.
In fact, the person who worries Jane the most is Colleen. She had actually seen it, and she wanted to ask Jane for the reason several times, but as a star, she and Jane had too much entertainment at the banquet. I don't have time to ask, and even if I have the opportunity to talk, I can only say a few words in a hurry, and I can't ask anything at all.
When the banquet is over. As the host, it was necessary for Jane to leave the team for a while and catch up with her relatives, but she did not relax in the hospitality of her companions, and provided a very luxurious temporary courtyard for Phipley and his party, and it was guaranteed that no one would disturb her.
Although many of the companions were worried about Jane, as a guest, they were too embarrassed to ask too much, so they could only politely thank them and return to their temporary accommodation.
"If you have any questions, you can also consult with us, and we will try our best to solve them for you. As the administrator of the Glory Sky Rider, Phipley also knows what Jane is thinking, and can only comfort this mermaid girl on behalf of everyone, this is not a polite word, they really want to help Jane.
Jane just smiled, but instead came to comfort everyone that they didn't need to be too careful, it was just a small thing.
When the group had completely left, Jane made her way to the hallway behind the hall, where her father, Resukie, had been waiting for a long time.
"Father, why did this happen?" said Jane with a wry smile, "Why didn't you show up at the banquet today, I guess this secret won't be hidden for long." ”
"Hey, I didn't expect He to do such a stupid thing, and this kind of thing happened at this time. Lei Suqi rubbed his brain with his hand, he felt that he was really old these days, and he couldn't do it.
"He's still a kid after all, take me to see him and let me see how he's doing. Jian Qiang smiled and comforted his father.
"Well, you have to be ready. ”
Be prepared, although her father had already reminded her of this, Jane couldn't help but turn pale when she saw her own brother's situation.
She could barely recognize this as her own brother, only to see the young man lying on the bed festering all over his body, and even giving birth to maggots, he was lucky to be alive...... Or misfortune?, in any case, he was in great pain, and he was moaning, and in order to prevent him from scratching his wounds, Resuki had ordered his hands to be tied.
If Chu Shou was present, he would definitely think of the mermaid in the sewer of one of the top ten forbidden films in a certain Chongkou Island Country.
"Why is this happening?" said Jane, covering her mouth, tears already streaming from her eyes, the pain in her heart no less than the pain in her brother's body.
"It's a curse, because Ho broke into the fertility altar. Resuki sighed bitterly.
In order to prevent the Tears of the Sea from being lost again, the Merfolk King ordered a vicious curse to be erected on the fertility altar to punish any unauthorised trespassers in order to ensure the safety of this important artifact. This order was embraced by all the merfolk, including Resuki.
"Why the hell did you want to go there!?" Resuki couldn't figure out, but now that the person was confused and had no way of knowing, he didn't believe that his son would do such a stupid thing.
"Can't we find a way to lift the curse?" asked Jane.
"The only way to do this is to use the Tears of the Sea. When Lei Suqi spoke, even the words began to choke.
The use of Tears of the Sea, combined with the mermaid's spells, can lift such a terrible curse, which is also to prevent those trespassing thefts from destroying the most important treasure of this merfolk.
Hearing this, Jane's face became more and more pale, and she knew very well what this condition meant. (To be continued.) )
