"I'm sorry to bother you!"
However, the development of events often exceeds everyone's expectations. Margaret, who was standing there, didn't know whether she heard what Chen Huijie said, but at least she was certain that this guy had definitely got the wrong idea. Her face flushed as she quickly bowed to express her apology for ruining someone else's good deeds. Then, she closed the door again at the speed of a champion and ran back to her room.
Then, Margaret covered her head with the quilt, performing a different kind of ostrich-like act. In the quilt, Margaret's mind was quite complicated. She was shocked at first, shocked as to why this happened. How could her benefactor dare to do such a thing under the nose of her aunt? Wasn't he afraid that her aunt would be angry?
Then came confusion, because Margaret felt that her benefactor was not that kind of person. Although he seemed to be surrounded by women, there might actually be some misunderstanding.
But immediately, Margaret thought of something else. She wondered if there was some misunderstanding in the relationship between her aunt and her benefactor. In fact, they were just friends.
Then, Margaret's mind couldn't help but emerge with the romantic plots in the knight novels she had read before. Those knights who had gone through countless hardships and dangers would eventually return to their hometown with glory to greet the girl...or girls he loved.
Amidst such complex thoughts, Margaret struggled to fall asleep. However, as she drifted off to sleep, the figures lying on either side of Chen Huijie seemed to have become herself and her aunt...
! ! ! ! !
This scene was so exciting for Margaret that the sleepiness that had been coming up in her disappeared instantly. Then, the knight champion decisively took out her weapon and went to the small square not far away to practice martial arts.
It’s just that… I don’t know why I’m rejecting it. As long as my aunt agrees, I can do it… Ah!! What am I thinking!!!
Even when practicing martial arts, Margaret's heart still could not calm down. This kind of thing was still too "intense" for this young pony who was just beginning to fall in love.
Meanwhile, on the other side...
"Sit up!"
"Swish!" X2
Exia and W knelt obediently on the bed. Although W wanted to stand up and argue with Chen Huijie, he felt the low pressure coming from his head. Even a fool would be forced to bow his head under pressure.
"You two, stay here quietly. If you dare to move before I come back, you will bear the consequences!"
Chen Huijie stretched his arms and scolded the two people with a helpless expression. It was not because Margaret had seen the situation just now. That was nothing. He would go back to Margaret and explain it clearly. Anyway, this kind of thing happened a lot in the previous world line.
Moreover, these two guys really didn't hold back when they hit me, causing my arms to ache. Although W's body was softer, this mercenary was too strong. Although Archangel was weaker, her body was... Forget it, let's not talk about this. It's a bit rude to criticize someone's body shape.
But this was not the key point that made Chen Huijie angry. The key point was that these two guys did not believe what he said at all. No, they might have believed it, but when they thought about playing a trick on him, these two guys just did it without caring about anything. This kind of thing cannot be tolerated, at least when it comes to serious matters, they cannot be allowed to act like this.
Chen Huijie's face looked somewhat ugly. In the previous world line, both Exia and Vishdel had disobeyed him on important matters, or lost their temper and felt that they were in danger, and fell into the enemy's trap. At that time, if Chen Huijie's ability was a little weaker, he would not be able to fight back and rescue them after escaping.
Therefore, even if it seems like an exaggeration, this tendency must not be tolerated.
After saying that, Chen Huijie turned around and left the room. As he said, since he remembered what happened in Syracuse, it would be better for him to go and take a look. Otherwise, he would not be able to sleep even if he wanted to with something on his mind.
After Chen Huijie left, Exia and W looked at each other. How should they put it? After the cooperation and scolding just now, the two of them actually developed a subtle feeling of being connected by the same fate. However, it was not impossible to reconcile. They snorted coldly at the same time, but no one dared to move. After all, they were really afraid that Chen Huijie would come back to "settle the score" with them.
As for Chen Huijie, he was moving around while recalling what had happened in Syracuse during this period. If he remembered correctly, the Sicilian lady of Syracuse should have made some moves.
The Lady of Sicily, now considered the official leader of Syracuse, had arrived in the turbulent land of Syracuse from the distant Lateran around 1039 AD, bringing with her an unprecedented wind of change.
Not only did she bring guns and order from the Lateran, relying on absolute violence to subdue the Twelve Families, but more importantly, she also brought a strict set of principles of order, intending to end the long-standing chaos and strife in Syracuse.
Lady Sicily struck down those families that dared to resist with thunderous force, but at the same time, she also gave certain benefits to the families that were willing to surrender in exchange for their recognition and support for the new order.
After successfully suppressing the rebellion of the Twelve Families, Lady Sicily set about building a new administrative and judicial system. She established a government with multiple departments responsible for the day-to-day management of the country and the formulation and implementation of policies. She also established courts to ensure the fair enforcement of the law and maintain social order.
She also founded an organization called "Gray Hall," a platform for the heads of the twelve major families to discuss internal affairs and the key to her achieving a unified will. In the Gray Hall, the voice of each family can be heard, but all decisions must follow the two iron laws she set:
Inter-family conflicts must not escalate into genocidal killings, and private wars between the twelve families in the Grey Hall are strictly prohibited.
In Chen Huijie's eyes, Lady Sicily was indeed a smart person. On the one hand, she knew that continued internal strife would only make Syracuse weaker and become a prey to foreign enemies; on the other hand, she also understood that true unity could not be maintained by force, but required all families to reach a consensus based on common interests.
However, Chen Huijie also believed that this Lady of Sicily still lacked some courage, because it was undeniable that the time Syracuse would be controlled by "Guns and Order" would only last as long as Lady of Sicily was still alive. No matter how she forced the twelve families to sit on the gray table for negotiations, the existence of the Syracuse family would still be an eyesore.
In the previous world line, Chen Huijie had been to Syracuse and witnessed the families that had turned into so-called companies under the pressure of the Lady of Sicily. It was just a change of skin. The method they used to bully the poor was also changed from the most direct use of force to approval documents with the shadow of law. The whole of Syracuse was filled with chaos.
Of course, Chen Huijie felt that if Lady Sicily was given more time, she might have a chance to clear the future path for Syracuse from this chaos. However, this woman seemed a little too arrogant. She actually thought that as an outsider, she would become a part of her reform plan according to Syracuse's rules.
As for Chen Huijie... I just came to pick up my friend to take him back to Longmen, and I will leave after picking him up. But since you insist on making trouble with this, there is nothing I can do. I can only overturn the table if I don't do anything else.
Therefore, Chen Huijie had a relatively clear understanding of Syracuse, and he also had some understanding of Lady Sicily's thoughts. Lady Sicily wanted to transfer the internal conflicts of Syracuse to outside Syracuse in order to reduce the resistance to her policy implementation. After all, as long as there were benefits, the people of those families would obediently make certain concessions.
And Longmen seemed to be part of Lady Sicily's plan. The existence of the slum gangs in Longmen was somewhat connected to Syracuse. Although Chen Huijie didn't know much about Longmen at this point in time, it was hard to say how many of the gangs fighting against the Rat King were influenced by Lady Sicily.
When you pass by the Lin Mansion, go and see if the Rat King is asleep. If not, talk to him about this.
Just as Chen Huijie was thinking this, Lin Yuxia had already fallen asleep in the Lin Mansion. In her dream, she secretly took out a packet of pink powder, poured it into the wine jar, and after stirring it evenly, she picked up the jar of wine as if nothing had happened, walked into the living room, and said with a smile:
"Huijie, I found a jar of good wine here, would you like to try it?"
"Good wine? Oh wow, of course I have to try it."
260 Tallulah: Where is my wanted warrant?
Lin Yuxia had a very fulfilling day today. After all, with the big operation of the Guard Bureau, as the eldest daughter of the Rat Gang in the slums, she naturally had to share the worries with her father. Therefore, after returning home and confirming her progress for the day with her father, Lin Yuxia had a simple meal and then went back to her room to rest.
This time, Lin Yuxia entered the dream again. This dream... scared Lin Yuxia at the beginning. After all, who could have thought that when she closed her eyes and opened them again, there would be all kinds of medicine bottles of different sizes in front of her.
Wait, what's going on? What are these medicines?
Lin Yuxia sat on the chair at a loss, not knowing what to do. She had never seen these small medicine bottles before.
Lin Yuxia wanted to leave the table, but her body could not respond to this idea. It seemed that she could not leave here unless she prepared these medicines.
What are these things called...
Lin Yuxia had no choice but to bite the bullet and touch those small medicine bottles. She knew nothing about pharmacology. How could she know what the uses of all those powders were? She couldn't just try them one by one herself!
Just as Lin Yuxia was complaining like this, a name suddenly emerged in her mind: 'Spirit Turtle Display'.
???
What is the 'Spirit Turtle Display'?
Lin Yuxia had a series of questions in her head, but fortunately, these medicines had been explained, so she didn't have to bite the bullet and try them herself. In that case, what was this bottle of...
'Shenxu glue'? Never heard of it.
This bottle is....'Peach Blossom Mist'?
What kind of a mess is this...'chaste man'?
"..."
Just as Lin Yuxia was complaining in her heart, the name of a new medicine suddenly emerged in her mind, causing her movements to stop abruptly. Until then, Lin Yuxia realized something. The little mouse's face suddenly turned red, and it screamed instinctively and threw the medicine away.
However, what Lin Yuxia didn't expect was that when she called out, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside:
"What happened to Yuxia? Was she scared by the bugs?"
From his tone and words, the man didn't seem to realize he was being attacked. However, from his swift movements and murderous eyes, it was clear that his words were only used to confuse possible enemies. If the enemy relaxed his vigilance because of this, he would face a fatal lightning sword from the man.
Is it Mr. Chen? !
Although he had an extra pair of dragon horns and was much stronger, Lin Yuxia was mentally prepared for this kind of Chen Huijie because of her previous dream. However, what Lin Yuxia didn't notice was that when she looked at the real dragon Chen Huijie, Chen Huijie was looking at the table in front of her.
True Dragon Chen Huijie casually picked up a bottle of medicine at a speed that was difficult to track with the naked eye, opened it and smelled it curiously. Then, he looked at the medicine bottle with a very subtle look, then at the wine jar next to it, and finally looked at Lin Yuxia with a look of surprise.
Lin Yuxia also reacted at this time. She waved her hands hurriedly, wanting to explain something, but she didn't know what to say. It's not that I don't have it. These medicines have nothing to do with me!
"Yuxia."
"Um...."
Hearing the voice of True Dragon Chen Huijie, Lin Yuxia immediately lowered her head with a blushing face, quietly waiting for the next words, while in her heart she was madly shouting "I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I'm going to die..."
"Like I said, this kind of Qi-stirring medicine is fine for me, after all, I've already passed the basic stage of physical training, but you can't. You haven't received any formal training, and using this medicine will undoubtedly be like forcing things to happen. So, tomorrow morning I'll call you, and you can bring Uncle Lin along to practice the basics of physical training first."
?
Ok?
Ah? ?
Listening to True Dragon Chen Huijie begin to explain the steps of body building, Lin Yuxia had a series of questions in her head. She was ready to die, so how could things suddenly turn out like this? The tone of the painting suddenly became so serious...
Also, why do you act like you know a lot about aphrodisiacs!!!
Thinking of this, Lin Yuxia couldn't help but ask:
"From your tone, it feels like you've taken these medicines..."
"Of course I have. I even made my own."
True Dragon Chen Huijie waved his hand casually and said:
"But to be honest, my foundation is quite good, so there's no need for me to use these foreign substances to strengthen my Qi and blood. And although your foundation isn't as good as mine, there's no need for you to use these either. It's a waste to throw them away. Okay, I'm going back now. I need to think carefully about your and Uncle Lin's plan for strengthening your body."
After saying that, True Dragon Chen Huijie smiled at Lin Yuxia, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye, so fast that Lin Yuxia had no time to react.
With the departure of the real dragon Chen Huijie, the dream suddenly changed. Lin Yuxia appeared in front of the table again, and everything returned to the starting point. However, this time she was not forced to be restrained in the chair. It was as if the novice tutorial had been completed and the player could move freely.
In response to this, Lin Yuxia's first reaction was to hold her head with both hands and make meaningless humming sounds. What is going on? Why did she drug me? Why did she take this kind of medicine for fun?
Is this world too crazy, or am I not crazy enough?
Lin Yuxia couldn't help herself and picked up a few bottles of medicine powder and threw them into the jar of wine, then carried it out. This dream was really too unbearable.
However, after carrying the wine jar out, new information popped up in Lin Yuxia's mind. To be more precise, it should be the follow-up. She wanted to confess her feelings to Zhenlong Chen Huijie without him noticing the added ingredients in the wine, and then quickly make it a fait accompli.
That’s not right. No matter how you think about it, it’s not right!
Lin Yuxia couldn't help but pull her ears. She was now certain that this dream was absolutely too crazy. Why would a good confession ceremony turn out like this? This was too shocking.
"You guys, why are you hiding here and having a secret party?"
Things were not over yet. Before the wine jar was opened, a familiar voice came again. Lin Yuxia looked up and saw that it was Shi Huaiya. The little tiger smiled and turned the car keys and said:
"Come on, I found something fun, let's go play with it."
Lin Yuxia didn't expect that Shi Huaiya would actually take the initiative to invite her, but when Lin Yuxia looked at Shi Huaiya, she saw a different kind of provocation and dissatisfaction in the eyes of this little tiger.
With the arrival of Shi Huaiya, the dream returned to the starting point. This time, Lin Yuxia realized that she not only had to prepare the medicinal wine, but also had to find a way to stop Shi Huaiya who might pop up at any time...
Destroy it, quickly. This dream is all nonsense and has nothing to do with anything.
Lin Yuxia tilted her head, feeling both amused and helpless, but she immediately cheered up. Although she didn't know why this dream had become so weird, giving up directly was not Lin Yuxia's style. Since there was a difficult problem in front of her, she might as well try it herself.
But...this is really depressing. Why would I dream about such a thing?
In this regard, if Lin Yuxia could meet Bozhuocasti who is far away in Ursus, I think they would have a lot of common language.
At this time, in the far northwest of the Ursus Empire, the ice sheet stretched across the vast northwest like a silent giant, forming the most iconic geological feature of this land. With an almost harsh attitude, it demonstrated the inviolability of nature.
This ice sheet, for ordinary people, is a veritable forbidden zone. It refuses to support the growth of crops, and those farmers who attempt to sow hope on this land ultimately reap only desolation and despair. The soil is poor, the climate harsh, and even the hardiest plants struggle to take root here, let alone grow thriving crops.
Bodrakast and his shield guards shuttled through every corner of the icy plain. Their heavy armor echoed dully in the cold wind, like a moving castle resisting injustice, slowly advancing through the endless white world. Each step was so firm, as if not even the biting cold wind could shake their resolve.
And in such a desolate place, there is also unique scenery. When night falls, the ice field turns into a silver ocean. The stars twinkle in the clear sky, and the ice crystals on the ground complement each other, forming a beautiful and lonely picture.
On such nights, Bodracasti and his shield guards would stop and find a place to rest for a short while.
In the past, at this time, even though Bozhukas was strict in military discipline, some insignificant rules would be ignored, and the captain and the soldiers would joke with each other and tell their own jokes to bring some joy to the night.
But today, no one was joking around like usual. They all looked at the room where Bozhukas was resting in silence. For some reason, the captain suddenly became silent today... Well, although he was usually very silent, it was obvious that the atmosphere around him became quite depressing. Everyone could feel that the captain was worried about something, but no one knew what the captain was thinking.
"I gonna go see."
At this moment, a white rabbit stood up. No one refuted her suggestion because she was the best choice at the moment.
Her name is Frost Star. Her parents, a pair of brave and determined ordinary people, were regarded as thorns in the eyes because they openly questioned and opposed the extreme wartime strategy of the government at that time.
So, one night, they were secretly taken away and then sent to a remote and harsh mine, which was where Ursus used to punish those who were "disobedient".
Not long after, the innocent grandmother of the family was also implicated and forced to leave her familiar home and embark on a difficult journey to the mine.
And in this desolate and hopeless place, Frost Star was born...
As time passed, Frost Star grew up in the harsh environment of the mine. When she was five years old, on a cold winter day, the wheel of fate turned mercilessly. Her parents unfortunately drew the black lot representing death in a lottery. They were ruthlessly taken away by the mine garrison and never returned.
Frost Star was left with only her elderly grandmother as her only support. However, fate did not stop there. When she was ten years old, her grandmother also could not escape the fate of the black signature, and the flame of her life was quietly extinguished in the cold wind of the mine.
Then, when Frost Star was eleven years old, she also drew the black lottery ticket of death. Just when Frost Star thought that she would follow in the footsteps of her relatives and be executed, the patriot team suddenly launched a raid on the mine and rescued Frost Star from the hands of death.
After that, Bozhukas formed a snow monster team and let this team use their skills to create Originium ice crystals to assist the shield guards in battle.
As time went by, Froststar's skills improved. At the age of sixteen, she successfully summoned a shocking cold wave for the first time, which earned her the title of "Big Sister". The members of the Snow Monster Squad were full of awe and trust in her.
Of course, the identity of "big sister" is not enough for Frost Star to find Bozhukasti at this time. More importantly, not long after Frost Star was rescued, Bozhukasti felt sorry for her life experience, or perhaps saw the image of his dead child in her, so he adopted her as his adopted daughter. Over the years, the adoptive father and daughter have gotten along quite harmoniously.
Frost Star came to the door and knocked gently. Without waiting for a response, he pushed the door open and looked at Bozhukast, who was sitting on the chair, looking at something, and said bluntly:
"Old stubborn man, have you thought clearly about what to do? If you really can't make up your mind alone, you can talk to me."
