Chapter 1172 Clues
At seven o'clock in the evening, Li Leisi dragged the ferocious dragon blade into the castle. Her arrogant expression was just like a gangster who had just robbed a good young woman in the alley.
"It's comfortable"
"I like that place so much. Not only are there fights, but also fights with people. You know, people are not zombies, not beasts, and not insects. People, there are still people cheering for you. I have morals and laws, and I can use any tricks!"
"The placard-holding girl in the arena is so sexy! Sweet, cute and sensible!"
"And more"
[Your wife Lilith is exhausted from the battle in the arena]
[Undoubtedly, her strength is quite strong among ordinary people, but fighting in the arena is a very cruel and brutal job. Life in the arena is as humble as dust and mud, and death is not commonplace. Your wife Lilith feels more and more that life 's fragility]
This is the narration, and over there is Li Leisi's chattering commentary: "Anyway, it's super cool, every punch hits the flesh, do you know that today I actually met a guy who can fight me back and forth purely with fists and skills, what a natural sparring partner, so I can't bear to kill him!"
Anyway, I don't know who is more divided, our narration, the thing in front of him, or Teacher Cang. Li Cang frowned: "Did you tease the girl holding the sign again?"
"The face and chest are super tender. Uh. Haha hehe. How can it be. I can't do that. I am the Countess. Hey, stop arguing, stop arguing, hush. Have some shame"
This woman not only has a criminal record, but also has a stubborn habit!
As Li Cang gnashed his teeth, Li Leisi argued, "This proves that we are a perfect match, you know? We both have the same appreciation of beauty. Hey, let's talk, why are you so anxious?"
Li Cang sighed and said to the maids Kaiya and Xi'er, "You two stay away from her, okay?"
The two: "???"
Li Leisi took off her clothes and walked to the open shower room, and jumped into the milk-colored bathtub that Xi'er had adjusted the water temperature and put in spices and flower petals.
"Ah! It feels good! Let's talk business!"
"All the gladiators in the arena are ordinary people. It is said that those with bloodline abilities are raised by the nobles, and the rest have almost all entered the Abyss of the Dead. I can't find out any information about bugs. It seems that bugs have really become pets in Yggdrasil. There are bugs everywhere. Apart from bugs, there are no traces of zombies and strange beasts."
"Oh, yes, the crystal coins in this place cannot be collected into the prayer interface. They can only exist in a concrete form. They cannot be sacrificed for prayers. The place where coins are produced can only be the Abyss of the Dead."
This pool of water that the Countess and the Earl use to wash twice a day, the various spices used in it are worth 12 Eagle Head Gold Coins, and the red tea bags that start from two pots and can't be stopped every day, the price of each whole bag is an astonishing 3 World Tree Gold Coins, which is ten times the value of Eagle Head Gold Coins.
It is conceivable how rich and ferocious Li Cang's expression was when he listened to Kaiya's report on daily expenses. I don't wonder why this character, a great earl, can be so poor. Even when he was worth tens of millions, he couldn't do such extravagant and excessive spending!
Thinking of the narrator saying that he could go to the slave shop to advance two quarters of the rent in advance to purchase a "rhinoceros beetle" as a frame and mount, Li Cang suddenly had an ominous premonition. Would the 3,000 crystal coins compensated by the old man Betanin not be enough? ?
Li Leisi suddenly asked: "What about you? You pervert, you didn't just eat the little slave girl and do nothing else, did you?"
"Get lost!" Li Cang cursed angrily, "Old Betanin came here to compensate 3,000 crystal coins. The Viscount Tutankhamun who acted as a peacemaker should have some connections, but the old man ran away too fast. I thought 3,000 crystal coins might not be enough to buy a bug, so I specially learned about the bad rules of Yggdrasil. If I want to use the duke-level bug-driven vehicle, I must at least configure three so-called rhinoceros beetles. If there are fewer, it will not be able to drive."
"So that vehicle is very powerful?"
"The description is very little and vague. It feels like it should be roughly equivalent to an armed transformation of the sky island, and it is likely to have its own protective force field."
"Wow~" Li Leisi sighed a little, floating lazily on the water and breathing comfortably, and the whole person rose and fell like a glacier on the sea: "What about the bugs? Is there any explanation for the bugs?"
"No, all kinds of There is no record of Zerg in books. I asked Xi'er and Kaiya. There is no Zerg legend in the folk of Yggdrasil. Here, the zombies and strange beasts of the Abyss of the Dead are the most dangerous things. "
"Valshina (Avila) has met the hostess (mistress). Dinner is ready. The master and mistress can move to the restaurant for dinner later."
[The gifts from the Betanin family appeared just right. Even if they put themselves in the position of slaves, it must be said that they did declare their existence very well. You are a little annoyed and embarrassed]
[Your wife Lilith is silent]
"Oh, it seems that the Earl is having a particularly good time today~" Li Leisi was "silent" in a weird way: "The Baron's daughter was given to you as a slave? Tsk tsk~"
Li Cang rolled his eyes and was about to explain, and then he saw Li Leisi's eyes shining and said: "Come here, let me check the quality!"
Li Cang: "."
Even though they were both women, Valshina and Avila were still frightened by the light in the countess's eyes.
Let’s just say, the internal flavor is pretty good too.
Kaiya and Xi'er, who had already witnessed the Countess' power, calmly retreated behind Li Cang, looking around as if they were loyal to the Lord. However, the gesture of covering their lips and smiling coquettishly was clearly just for fun.
[Your slave girl Xi'er heard the voice coming from outside the gate and informed you that a visitor came to your door. You could only angrily refuse your wife's invitation to bathe together and send your slave girl Xi'er to have a look.]
Xi'er came back quickly and said with a not-so-pleasant face: "The master is Jimmy Terry Joy from the slave trade."
As her former masters, Xi'er and Kaiya obviously still have a certain fear of the owner of this slave trade. Their tone of speech seemed hesitant. After all, slaves are slaves, and no matter how top-notch slaves are, they are still slaves. As for the master's goods, the slave shop will be as cruel and cruel to the slaves as it is considerate and flattering to its customers.
"Ask him to wait in the study until I and the beautiful lady have dinner."
"yes"
When the property under the name of a nobleman is in arrears with rent, it is obvious that the nobleman cannot be decent. This matter can be big or small. Of course, only the narrator cares about whether it is decent or not. As for Li Cang
Someone will give you a pillow when you feel sleepy. The money for the honorary Lord Bartley has not yet arrived, so it is necessary to rub holes in the body of a small customer like Jimmy Terry Joy. Don't be kind. It’s too small to do anything!
Just yesterday, Jimmy Terry Joy, the owner of the slave shop who kept saying that it was difficult to do business due to financial difficulties and was trying to default on Li Cang's rent, did not dare to wait until Selvi's body was completely cool before he hurried to visit him. He nodded and bowed his hands and offered The rent for the previous quarter that was owed and the last two quarters that were advanced in advance totaled 1,500 crystal coins, and came with an animal trainer and two coachmen. He was full of sincere apologies, and he was in a mess of humiliation and fear.
This kind of people can make the most of the wind than anyone else. They are the ones who listen to the wind and the rain comes. They are not willing to take even the slightest risk.
After waiting for a full two hours, Jimmy Teli, who was so hungry that he was dizzy, did not complain at all. Not to mention that he had paid the rent in advance, and even did not dare to say goodbye before Li Cang opened his mouth to see the guests off. He kept looking for words for himself. At one moment, he was chatting and asking whether Li Cang liked the two high-level female slaves. At another moment, he talked about how the animal trainers and coachmen he brought were carefully selected and carefully cultivated their professional skills and how excellent they were.
Li Cang was too lazy to deal with this non-mainline NPC and said directly: "I plan to purchase a few bugs pulling carts in the near future. I don't know much about this aspect. Do you have any recommendations?"
Jimmy suddenly felt sweat on his forehead, and secretly complained in his heart. So the Earl has indeed awakened his bloodline, and is ready to use the family's collection of insect repellent vehicles. He shouldn't have thought about delaying the location before. Rent, sure enough now comes retribution!
"Congratulations, Lord Earl. What a pity, Lord Earl, the noble founder bloodline has finally responded to your call. It's like this. I have a cousin who happens to be a housekeeper at the animal training ground. I will inform him immediately after I return. Within, you will get the greatest discount no matter which mount you choose!”
"Very good. As long as things are done well, I can generously forgive you for your previous offense to the Earl. Remember to pay the rent in time. You can leave now."
"Thank you, Lord Earl, your mind is big enough to accommodate the Sea of Yggdrasil. I will take my leave."
Jimmy Terry, who was covered in cold sweat, trembled and ran away in a panic. The hungry and highly nervous slave shop boss almost fell headlong on the World Tree sculpture at the door of the Earl. He was still panting rapidly until he got on the carriage.
It sounds like it's just a delay in paying the rent for a quarter, but that was before. Now, even if the earl executes him on the spot, no one will cry out for him and say that the crime will not lead to death - this is the so-called noble Eating people in a stylish and respectable manner.
Jimmy Terry is not even an honorary Lord. He has to bow and salute when he sees Bartley. The gap between nobles and nobles can even be greater than that of humans and dogs. Nobles and nobles who have awakened their bloodline completely represent two completely different things. different meanings.
Jimmy Terry didn't even dare to complain secretly, and said directly to the coachman: "Go to my cousin's house, no, go back to the slave bank's treasury first, I want to get some crystal coins."
"Sir, your face looks very bad. Is there something wrong with the earl?"
The coachman is not only a coachman, but also a slave and guard who has grown up with Jimmy Trilli. He has saved Jimmy Trilli's life countless times in danger, and he is almost closer to him than a biological brother.
"It's okay." Jimmy Terry breathed a sigh of relief and kept wiping his sweat: "The Earl has forgiven my offense, and it's okay now, but he wants to buy some bugs for the car from his cousin, I promised Discount, I can’t let my cousin pay for my mistake”
"Hiss, that count has really awakened the bloodline of his ancestors?"
"Yes, he has definitely awakened. He is worthy of being the blood descendant of the founder. He was just sitting there. He didn't even show anger or deliberately target me, but his aura was much more terrifying than Lord Victor. , it’s like. It feels like the first time I went to the Pit of the Dead to pick up something, you know, that time I peed my pants.”
"Sir, maybe you should fire your 'strategist.'" Fergus Mellis said slowly: "His business ability is very good, but he is a real villain, and he can't afford to lose money early if he doesn't have any profit." You villain, you are used to making dangerous moves. For example, this time, delaying the payment of rent for several quarters will not bring you more benefits. Even if the earl has not awakened his bloodline, he will risk offending an earl in exchange for A small profit is not a wise move."
"You are right. I was damaged by the light of the crystal coin and my brain was filled with greed. This problem will not happen again in the future. Absolutely not. However, that person knows me and knows too many secrets of the slave business. I am afraid he will take advantage of this opportunity. Blackmail me."
"You don't have to worry about this kind of thing. You can feel free to go to your cousin to discuss the matter. I will make it impossible for the military advisor to speak."
"Fergus, my brother, you don't have to risk yourself to do this kind of thing, just pick a few slaves to do it. You are like my real relatives. I can't bear the grief of losing you one day."
"Yes, my lord."
Li Cang didn't know how much trouble his butterfly fluttering caused, because he was facing Li Laisi's thunderous wrath, and he was kicked out of the bedroom in a daze. It took him a long time to come back to his senses - something about timi didn't seem right. , what happened, I was kicked out, kick me out, kick me out, Comrade Daleizi, what do you mean by keeping those four people?
Teacher Cang’s thoughts are as if the grass grows and the orioles fly.
The good news is that after yesterday's hot-faced but cold-butt encounter, the narrator never mentioned any matters related to hypnosis, but quietly greatly increased the increasingly superb skills of the gladiator countess and the sick Earl's. Interactivity, or in other words, it seems that this method is used to squeeze out the sick Earl's longevity quota that is not in line with the human design. After all, it is really unreasonable for a sick ghost to be so active all day long.
Well, at least under normal circumstances, it is indeed much easier to correct one person's behavior than to correct everyone's cognition.
Li Cang, who had nothing to do, was finally able to bypass the narrator who had been paused for a few minutes and sprinted to the underground space of the castle at a speed of 100 meters. Although it was more like a water prison, the criss-crossing water network was used to control the ventilation and temperature of the entire castle. Humidity, the second underground floor is a treasure house that seals the family's glory and property.
[When you open the door to the vault, you also open up a piece of dust-covered glory. The sculptures of ancestors and various precious works of art occupy most of the space here. The entire wall has countless shelves that were once used to hold crystal coins stained with blood. Wooden boxes are scattered all over the ground, and there are a large number of wine bottles piled on the ground. Some are broken, some are empty, and some of the wine inside has become rotten and moldy. There is no doubt that only your unsatisfactory dog father will watch him gradually The empty treasure house laments day and night and drinks too much]
[The bug-driven car is visiting the center of the treasure house. It has mottled textures stained by the blood of walking corpses and alien beasts. It is bloody and pungent, and is as heavy as a mountain]
[You found a strange and extremely huge chelicerae of a servant insect on your car. It seems to be different from all the servant insects you have ever seen. You don’t understand why your ancestors placed such lowly items so solemnly. Go to the most conspicuous position in the entire treasure house, on top of the chariot that represents the family’s glory]
The so-called insect-repelling vehicle is not the boxcar Li Cang guessed at all, but an extremely crude, all-metal structure "Y"-shaped flat trailer, only three people long, with gold-plated and gem-plated surfaces, and even a welded There are no seams visible, and it looks like it's hard to even transport people, let alone sit in it.
