Anchor, your box lunch is here

As soon as these words came out, all the movements of their hands stopped. The word "Ghost Manor" stimulated their nerves, making them inevitably think of some terrible pictures.

The Riddle Manor is large in scale and expensive, but it was not inherited by the Earl of Sheffield. In fact, the Earl of Sheffield did not have any property to inherit. His father was just a baron without a fief, but the original owner of the Riddle Manor was He is the Duke of Riddle with the highest title in the Doin Kingdom.

Duke Riddle is second only to Queen Goldthorn, and even the Crown Prince is on good terms with him. In the Kingdom of Doin, Duke Riddle can be said to be extremely powerful, but such a powerful nobleman, He actually died tragically in his own home ten years ago. Three robbers rushed into the Duke's mansion, burned, killed, and looted. Finally, they set a big fire and burned the banquet hall to the ground. The guests who attended the banquet at that time also suffered, hundreds of them. Personally, only eleven survived.

Once this tragedy was reported, it shocked the entire Doin Kingdom. The Queen of Goldthorn was furious, thinking that it was a provocation to the noble class, and immediately issued a warrant to the whole country to hunt down the three daring robbers.

The final result was that the three robbers were sent to the gallows, and they paid the price for their actions, and the heirs of Duke Riddle died in that tragedy, and the manor became ownerless, although it was Part of it was burned, but its heritage of hundreds of years is still a symbol of noble status, so it was auctioned publicly as the property of the kingdom.

The manor was first photographed by Count Ruiz, who restored the manor to its former glory, but three months after moving into the manor, Earl Ruiz died of old age. The manor, which has been passed down for a long time, did not like it, and chose to auction it again.

After that, Riddle Manor changed hands several times until it was bought by the Earl of Sheffield.

The Earl of Sheffield has been appreciated by the Queen for his meritorious service in the past ten years. He was promoted from a baron to an earl and was awarded a piece of land. The Earl of Sheffield chose to buy the Riddle Manor and became the owner of the manor. The new owner, the manor didn't fall into the hands of his heir, that is, Chao An, until half a month ago when he accidentally died from a fall from his horse.

Although the Riddle Manor symbolizes wealth and status, many people died tragically after all. In addition, among the later owners were nobles such as the Earl of Ruiz and the Earl of Sheffield who died shortly after moving into the manor. Therefore, it is considered by some religious fanatics as an "unknown place" and "a hotbed of demons". It is even rumored that there are ghosts wandering in the manor.

Kathy and the others chose to stay in the manor after the funeral because they had a more or less close relationship with the Earl of Sheffield, but they would leave after staying for a few days at most. The manor, he will always live here, Kathy thinks this is not a good decision.

"This manor used to be my father's dream. He loved it even more than my mother. I can't go against my father's wish and transfer it to others." Chao An said.

"Well, I'll stay here for a week, and if you change your mind, you can leave with me." Kathy showed a helpless expression.

"Thank you for your concern, Cousin Kathy."

Several people finished their breakfast and changed the place of conversation to the living room. Bellamy, the maid, served everyone tea. Arthur brought an ironed newspaper and put it in Chaoan's hand. The newspapers are not delivered until after breakfast.

Looking at the bright sunshine outside the window, Kathy stretched her waist, revealing her exquisite female curves.

"Angelet, do you have any plans for today?"

"Nope, what about you?"

"I thought I should at least go out for a walk in such good weather."

"How about going to the racecourse?" Baron Villiers suggested. He is a nobleman who likes to pursue excitement. Part of the reason for his combination with Kathy is the same restlessness in their personalities.

"No, Angelet can't ride a horse. We should do something else." When Kathy said this, it was obvious that she was moved, but she still knew about Angelet's physical condition.

"It's okay, Arthur will take care of me." Chao An said with a smile.

"Then it's decided, I'll go back to my room and change my clothes first!"

Kathy happily lifted her skirt and ran upstairs. Seeing this, the businessman Chester said helplessly, "Honorable Master Angelet, I don't think I can play with you guys with my old bones. Please allow me." Ersa and I went back to the room to rest, we got up too early in the morning, and now we are a little sleepy, that's what happens when we are old."

"Okay, if there's anything you need to tell Bellamy."

"Thank you for your understanding."

The old couple went upstairs, and only Chaoan, Arthur, the baron and the judge were left in the living room. Chaoan turned his eyes to the judge and asked, "Mr. Bennett, would you like to go horseback riding with us?"

"Of course, I was also an excellent knight when I was young. How can such activities be without me?" Bennett laughed, his mustache trembling with his movements.

After the number of people was finalized, Chaoan went back to his room and changed into a horse riding attire. The light attire made him feel good. Five people left the castle. The coachman Carter was already waiting outside the door. He was a thin old man with a scar on his cheek. The scar, it is said that he made a mistake when he was young, and was drawn by a nobleman.

This manor is too vast, and the horse farm closest to the main castle also needs to be taken in a carriage. Chaoan and Kathy boarded a carriage, and Arthur drove it. The judge and the baron boarded another carriage, and Carter drove it. .

Kathy complained to Chaoan because she couldn't have a separate carriage, "You really should hire more coachmen, there are too few servants in the manor, I asked Bellamy to change the incense last night, and she went all the way. two hourglasses."

The hourglass hour is the unit of time in this world, and one hourglass hour is equal to 7 minutes.

"Okay, I will hire someone." Chao An nodded again and again, although he knew in his heart that he would not be able to hire anyone. This is the live broadcast world, and Chao An knows what will happen in the live broadcast world.

Two hours later, the group arrived at the racecourse. Carter brought four bay horses, the best horses in the manor, bought by the old earl from other kingdoms at a great price.

Kathy was very happy to see the horses, and immediately chose one of them. After riding on, she swung her whip and ran away. After a trot, she turned back, her cheeks flushed with excitement.

"Angelet, this horse is really great, you should try it right away."

Hearing this, the others couldn't wait to get on their horses. Baron Villiers looked at the judge arrogantly and said, "Your Excellency, I heard that you were once a knight. Would you like to have a competition?"

"As you wish, sir baron," replied Bennett.

"Well, I'll be the referee, and I'll run around the racecourse, and then I'll pick a hazel branch in the woods and come back. Whoever arrives first wins, and the winner can be found in my father's collection. Pick one at random."

When Chaoan said this, several people were stunned. The nobles in the entire capital knew that the Earl of Sheffield was good at collecting money, and most of the money was used by him to buy valuable collections. He had stored a lot of collections in his life, and the value was high. , and now Chaoan wants to take one of them as a reward, which is really too generous.

Kathy asked quickly, "Angri, is what you said true?"

"Of course, I think my father is also willing to offer treasures to the warriors." Chao An said nonsense in a serious manner. In fact, the Earl of Sheffield is very picky, and Chester, a businessman who often does business with him, has a deep understanding.

"Then I want to participate too!" A greedy light flashed across Kathy's eyes, but she quickly hid it.

The three rode on their horses and were ready to go. Chao An stood on the edge of the racecourse, standing beside the straight Arthur, and the remaining horse was tied to a tree stump. He waved his hand lightly, and the race began!

The horses of the three immediately started to gallop. Unexpectedly, it was Kathy who took the lead. The baron and the judge were evenly matched. When a woman compared him, both of them felt that their faces were humiliated, and they urged the horses fiercely. .

Chaoan looked at the three of them chasing after each other with great interest, wondering how long they could maintain such an energetic appearance?

Today's sun was unexpectedly hot, and it had already started to dazzle in the morning. Arthur opened an umbrella to prevent his young master's skin from being burned.

"Master, are you tired?"

"No, I feel fine, you really don't have to be so nervous, Arthur."

"Okay sir."

Even though he said this, Arthur was already planning how to adjust Chaoan's diet at noon. The young master was exposed to the sun today, so he needed to replenish water, add an extra serving of pre-meal fruit, and the small cake that the young master likes, today can also be done eat one...

Thinking about these things in his mind, Arthur's hand holding the umbrella was steady, his face was indifferent, and only softened when his eyes fell on his young master. Judging from the live broadcast, the two had a relationship of nearly three With a height difference of ten centimeters, they are a perfect match when standing together.

"Sandwich Jelly" ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah a taciturn loyal dog housekeeper Gong vs a delicate and frail handsome young master Shou, I'm blown away by this c!

"Cute Class Two, Three Years" locked the door, lost the key, knock it on me!

"Cuckoo" Now that the doors are locked, I suddenly have a bold idea...

"Open your skull" No, you don't want to, you don't.

"If you are a pig, you have to look like a pig"... I obviously came to watch the horror live broadcast for excitement, but suddenly I want to watch the love affair?

"The old man came from afar" Since you want to pursue excitement, then follow through to the end, the anchor begged to get in the car!

"Why can't it be curly hair?" Wealthy, democratic, civilized, harmonious...

Chao An "..."

Chao An only watched it for a moment, then silently closed the barrage. The integrity of the audience was really at stake, so he had better not watch it.

At this time, the competition had reached the final stage, and the leader became Baron Villiers. Chaoan saw that he was holding a hazel branch in his hand, and his body was close to the horse's back, and he quickly approached him.

Soon, when the finish line was reached, the baron cheered, tightened the reins, and was about to stop the horse, but the horse, which had been extremely docile before, suddenly went berserk, rushing towards the place where Chaoan was regardless, and the baron's expression instantly changed. big change.

"quick--"

There was no time for the reminder to come out, the frantic horse rushed in front of him, his eyes widened at Chao An, he saw the horse's hooves raised in front of his eyes, he wanted to dodge, but his body suddenly became weak, Chao An's body shook , will fall to the ground.

At the critical moment, Arthur grabbed Chao An by the waist, hugged Chao An, kicked his feet, and hurriedly backed up three or four steps, narrowly avoiding the mad horse.

hiss--

The horse's hooves were raised and lowered, and Carter, the coachman, wiped his sweat and ran up to hold the reins, and rescued the frightened Mr. Baron. At this time, Kathy and the judge also arrived, and they immediately jumped off the horse and surrounded the court. Ann's side.

"Angelie, are you okay? Are you injured?" Kathy asked anxiously.

"No, Arthur saved me." Chao An twitched the corners of his mouth, showing a smile to calm everyone's nervousness.

Because of lack of strength, Arthur didn't put down his face. The boy curled up in a small ball in his arms, his face was a little pale, like a bunny, but he wasn't injured.

Kathy stroked her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. She was really terrified when she saw this scene just now. Thinking that the culprit was by her side, Kathy immediately glared at the baron and asked, "Villiers ,what's wrong with you?"

"How do I know? This bastard suddenly went crazy. I couldn't even pull it, and almost fell off." The baron was also frightened, and he was in a bad mood at the moment. answered.

Seeing this, Chaoan hurriedly came out to smooth things over, "Cousin Kathy, it really has nothing to do with Baron Villiers, but I should say sorry to the baron. The horses in this racecourse have not been tamed for a long time, and the baron was shocked."

"Forget it, I'm not in the mood to ride a horse after this incident. Let's go back." The baron walked back with a sullen expression on his face. Kathy looked at his back, with a trace of anger in his eyes, in front of Angelet Speaking like this, Villiers really didn't give her face.

"Okay, okay, let's all go back first, go back and let Chester examine Master Angelet, he was an apprentice to a doctor before." The judge also hurried up to smooth things over, none of these young masters and ladies were easy to serve Yes, he has a headache.

The group of people got back into the carriage and walked back. Their moods were totally different from what they had expected when they came out. They were all in a bad mood. Only Chao An leaned against the window with a calm face, still thinking about other things in his mind, such as the Earl of Sheffield. The one who fell off the horse and died, the mad horse has been dealt with, but now this happened again.

Is this really a coincidence?
