Chapter 117: Forget Your Worries, Yellow Springs (5)
Ouyang Jie was playing with a heavily textured playing card, which was an ace of spades.
It's something he does when he's bored...... The time has already passed three o'clock in the afternoon, and it is now three o'clock and seventh, but Tu Shenyi has not yet arrived.
The sound of opening the door came at this time, and Ouyang Jie stood up suddenly, "Master...... Uncle Kim. ”
It was Uncle Jin, not Tu Shenyi, and Ouyang Jie sat down helplessly. I saw Uncle Jin walk in with a loving smile, "What, don't you like to see me?"
Ouyang Jie shook his head, "How come?"
He remembered what had happened after he was adopted, and said with emotion: "Although the master said that he adopted me, he usually spends more time than teaching me, or studying his vineyard. On the contrary, Uncle Jin, you have been taking care of me. ”
Ouyang Jie looked at Uncle Jin and said sincerely: "I don't know who my biological parents are, but I don't feel unlucky. Because I later had two fathers. One is my master. As the saying goes, one day is a teacher and a lifetime is a father, and the master gave me a new life and made me. The other is you, Uncle Jin, you are like a father to me, growing up with me. ”
"Isn't it wasted that the skills used to coax women are used on me?" Uncle Jin shook his head, then walked to the wine cabinet in the study, picked up a bottle of red wine, poured two glasses, and then walked over, "If you're not in a hurry, chat with me, your master will come over for a while." ”
Ouyang Jie didn't doubt it, smiled and took Uncle Jin's red wine glass, the two touched it lightly with the glass, and then each took a sip.
Ouyang Jie sighed: "It's still the red wine brewed by the master." ”
Uncle Jin suddenly said at this time: "Ajie, you specially brought Miss Zhong today, does it mean something else?"
Applejack smiled and said, "What's the point? She's my boss now, she wants to see her master, and she gave a death order, so I'm not going to bring it over, right?"
Uncle Jin shook his head slightly: "You won last year's big competition, with your achievements, even if you don't play for the Zhong family, the world's major casinos will rush to ask for you." No one can force you to do something you don't like to do. You said I watched you grow up like half a father...... Why, even I don't tell the truth?"
Ouyang Jie sighed, put down the wine glass, and after thinking for a while, he said slowly: "Zhong Luoyue, she is a very special woman. After the first time I saw her, I was sure of something. Uncle Jin, do you know, that feeling of wanting to get, but can't bear to hurt it, and will respect it. ”
Uncle Jin said indifferently: "Zhong Luoyue is the person at the top of the family. The Zhong family can use you, because of your talent, but it does not mean that the Zhong family is willing to accept you as a real part. ”
Ouyang Jie was silent for a moment before he said, "Even if I can reach the level of my master, don't I have a chance?"
Uncle Jin shook his head and said, "No one can reach the level of your master. It doesn't matter if it's you or me. ”
Ouyang Jie couldn't help but be depressed, and said with a wry smile: "An hour ago, Zhong Luoyue asked my master, if you bet with me now, which of us will win." To be honest, at that time, I didn't have any bottom in my heart, but I was a master, calm and relaxed...... Seriously, you're right, the master's kind of realm, I'm really inferior now. ”
Uncle Jin was noncommittal, and Ouyang Jie took another sip of wine, which was stuffy.
"Don't think too much about things in the future. Uncle Jin comforted Ouyang Jie, "Although she is said to be a woman at the top of the family, you are not without a ...... to climb."
"Thank you, Uncle Kim, only you are good to me......"
Ouyang Jie yawned, as if he was a little tired, he slowly lay on the table, half-squinted, and muttered, "Master...... Why hasn't he come yet, he looks at me...... It's cold, it's cold...... Light ......"
Ouyang Jie closed his eyes completely.
Uncle Jin reached out and patted Ouyang Jie's shoulder at this time, and said softly, "Get a good night's sleep...... I will help you fulfill your wishes, even if you are at the top of the family, you will not be able to resist the extraordinary power. One day, I'll be transcendent too, and then ......"
......
......
In front of a quiet stone room, Tu Shenyi held a brand-new white candle in his hand.
He was followed by Long Ze, Elizabeth and others. After the stone chamber was opened, Tu Shenyi did not enter immediately, but let the rest of the people enter it first.
The door was still open, because there were still guys who hadn't arrived.
The decoration in this stone room is not simple, it can even be said to be extremely luxurious, just like a local bedroom in the Middle World, but it is unusually dim, only the candle in Tu Shenyi's hand illuminates a small place.
In front of a huge round table, seven huge chairs were visited, Tu Shenyi put down the candle and sat down in front of one of the chairs, while everyone else sat down separately.
Tu Shenyi looked around, then pressed his hand on the part of the table in his position, and with a light press, the table top was pressed down. Seems to be a trap...... At this point, the place in the center of the table began to open. The mechanism opened, and a long narrow crystal bottle was slowly pushed out.
Seeing the appearance of this crystal bottle, Lady Eve suddenly gathered away her folding fan, sat up straighter, and said softly, "Lethe." ”
Tu Shenyi made a gesture of please at this time.
Elizabeth nodded, and Amunst, who was standing beside her, took the wooden box from her hand, and when she opened it, she took out a glass of red wine that was less than half left.
Very ordinary glass bottle, but Amunster carefully placed it in front of Elizabeth, "The other side of the flower." ”
Mrs. Eve also opened the delicate wooden box she brought at this time, and also took out the crystal bottle inside, the style was not the same as Tu Shenyi's bottle, she said softly: "Ninety-seven." ”
Next was Ryuzawa, who opened his leather bag and took out a cylindrical transparent container. Mr. Long Ze grabbed the container in front of the person and placed it, and after chuckling, he also put it in front of him, "Oh." ”
Forget worries series, Tu Shenyi brewed a total of seven sticks. Including the 'Forget Worries, Lethe River' placed in the center of the table at this time, there are already six known branches. As for the last one, it is the one here, and none of them have seen it except for Tu Shenyi.
"Then, Huang Quan and Sansheng are still missing. Lady Eve smiled slightly.
"Looks like I'm not late. The latecomer, who was late to the party, said with a smile in a flirtatious voice at this time...... It was Hitasil who came.
It's just that he came empty-handed, and soon attracted a few glances.
Hitasil pulled out a stool and sat down, "Don't be nervous, I won't break the rules...... That's it. ”
He was drawing something with his fingers on the table, only to see that with the movement of his fingers, dark red lines began to appear on the table, and finally all the lines were built into a complete pattern.
After a while, a ball-like creature began to pop out of the pattern, similar to that of a messenger, a furry yellow creature, but the courier had a large mouth in addition to its huge eyes.
The yellow orb opened its mouth all at once, revealing dense and sharp teeth...... It's spitting out something.
"Yellow Springs. Hitasil took the spit out of his hand - it was a tall cup, seemingly made of gold, but the rim had been sealed.
But the yellow ball spit out something else again. What came out this time was a box. Hitasil opened the box, which contained a diamond-shaped ruby-like crystal, and Hitasil said, "There are still the last three lives." ”
"It's really Sansheng......" Long Ze and Lady Eve frowned at the same time, "How could it be in your hands?"
Hitasil shrugged and said, "This is what the woman sent to me, and asked me to bring it, as to why she herself did not come, I do not know." ”
Long Ze and the others glanced at each other, and just then looked at Tu Shenyi, Lady Eve smiled and said, "No wonder you said that it was the same whether she came or not, it seems that you already knew that Sansheng was in the hands of Xitasir?"
Tu Shenyi said indifferently: "I had a correspondence with Xitasir before. ”
Hitahir nodded at this time, proving that Tu Shenyi was not lying.
Long Ze had a playful smile at this time, "It doesn't matter if you don't come on the hunting day in the past, you won't come today...... Tu Shenyi, it seems that she really doesn't treat you very well. Even if it's the first hug she gave you......"
Tu Shenyi ignored Long Ze's words, and just said indifferently: "Since they have all been brought, then I'll go and prepare." ”
Tu Shenyi waved his hand, and the various containers placed in front of everyone began to actively move to the center of the table, and then slowly descended, and finally disappeared.
"Let's start your show. Tu Shenyi said, and the figure hid in the darkness, and finally there was no movement, thinking that it had disappeared.
Hitasil was the first to stand up at this time, "I already have a guy I like, you can take it easy for me." ”
Long Ze and Lady Eve also got up one after another at this time, but Elizabeth still sat in the same place and did not get up.
Elizabeth timidly said, "I...... I'll just wait here. ”
Long Ze just whistled and chuckled, "My dear Elizabeth, I hope you can get through this time too...... Why don't you enjoy this wonderful food as much as we do? After trying it once, you'll feel stupid at what you've been sticking to. ”
Elizabeth just lowered her head and fiddled with the corners of her clothes as if she were slightly uneasy. At this time, Amunster gently pressed Elizabeth's shoulder, then glanced at Long Ze, and said indifferently: "Get out." ”
Long Ze shrugged, but left faster than Hitasir. Lady Eve followed, and then Hitasir glanced at Elizabeth and Amunst, smiled, and then took a small bottle from her body and threw it at Amunst.
"What is this?" Amunster frowned.
Hitasil said indifferently: "The new product of the Magicians Association this year, a medicine that replenishes physical strength. But you'll get tired after taking it, Mr. Amunster, and watch for yourself. ”
Amunster was silent for a moment before nodding, "Thank you." ”
Hitahir said casually: "You're welcome. I'm a dark businessman, and having more friends and favors isn't a bad thing for me. ”
Elizabeth glanced at Hitasil gratefully, and said softly, "May the glory of the True Ancestor be with you, Mr. Sitasil." ”
When everyone was gone, leaving only Elizabeth and Amunst, Elizabeth suddenly took a deep breath and pressed her hands to her chest, looking slightly nervous.
Amunst patted her on the shoulder at this point, "Have you started?"
Elizabeth shook her head and said, "Not yet...... I'm just a little nervous. Grandpa, if ......"
She raised her head and said seriously, "If there is an accident, I ...... I hope you don't show mercy to my men. ”
"I'm not going to let anything happen to you. Amunster clenched his black umbrella at this time, "I promised your mother, Rala, that I would never let you get lost...... Elizabeth. ”
......
......
Since he was the last to enter the passage to the cellar, when Luo Qiu walked down the long staircase, the guests were no longer visible.
I could only faintly hear the voice of a voice coming from ahead.
This so-called cellar seems to be much more complicated than you think.
Only after you actually come down can you realize its enormity.
Candelabras hang on either side of the wall, which seem to be used to guide guests in the right direction...... It's just that Luo Qiu was originally a person with some curiosity interests, and when he looked at the passages that were not lit by candlelight, he would take a few looks.
"There's nothing over there. ”
At this moment, the voice of Hitasil was heard in front of him. He didn't know when he appeared, but he was leaning against the wall, as if he was waiting, so he was already there.
"It's not like a cellar. Luo Qiu asked casually.
Hitasir walked slowly over at this time, "This cellar was built by Baron Fernandis. The area is much larger than the castle on the ground. Originally built to hide, to hide soldiers here, as a last resort against the enemy. Interestingly, however, it was built like a labyrinth, but it was not used once until Baron Fernandez was hanged. ”
Luo Qiu nodded, looking at a faint mark in the corner of the wall, which had taken on a black-brown color in the light of the candlelight...... I'm afraid it's bloodstained, "And now, it's your hunting ground?"
"You seem to be the only one coming down?" asked Sitasil suddenly.
Luo Qiu just nodded, "Is there a problem?"
"Not really. Hitasil smiled and said, "As long as you feel that there is no problem, I believe you should have arranged it." ”
Luo Qiu returned the remaining three rings to Hitasir.
Hitasil stretched out his hand to take it back, and then looked at the butterfly on Luo Qiu's shoulder that was obediently docked and spread its wings, and said with a little curiosity: "Goddess of Light, good breed, where did it come from?"
Luo Qiu glanced sideways and said, "It should have flown from outside, this little guy is quite interesting, he didn't walk away when he fell on me." ”
Hitasil touched his chin at this time and said, "I heard that butterflies are like elves. Each butterfly carries the thoughts of the deceased, and I don't know if this one, there is or not. ”
As he spoke, Hitasil reached out to touch the Shining Butterfly, the goddess of light, but it flew away from Luo Qiu's body one step earlier, and flew into the dim passage at once.
Hitasil said with a look of pity: "It seems that it doesn't like me at all...... Sorry to scare your little pet away. ”
Luo Qiu smiled and said, "I'll see you again if I have a fate." ”
Hitasir smiled brightly at this time, "Come, I'll take you to a place." ”
