Byron's Blade

On the first night of staying in General Dongluo's Mansion, Lan Ni got drunk.The eldest lady's drinking capacity is worrying, and she poured the white wine as soon as she took a cup.The strange thing is that she didn't seem to be drunk at the banquet, but on the way back to the room with the waiter, she became more and more dizzy, and finally couldn't walk in a straight line, and needed Mu Li to support her body and lead her to find Quasi direction.

It was the first time I saw Lanni Muli who was drunk, her face was flushed, her pair of phoenix eyes were blurred, she looked too alluring.If it wasn't for the consideration that this is the residence of General Dongluo and they were here as guests, Mu Li would have been so cruel that he would have eaten her right away.This irritating goblin is too seductive. When drunk, she suddenly becomes very clingy. She doesn't let go of Mu Li, mutters something indistinctly, and keeps throwing herself on Mu Li. rub.

When the waiter came to the guest room with their luggage, he saw that the two were so sticky, and asked if they wanted to share the same room. Mu Li nodded naturally, and the waiter led them into the room, put down the luggage, and said Saying good night, he backed out.

Lan Ni lay softly in Mu Li's arms, seemed to feel very comfortable here, and gradually calmed down.Mu Li hugged her tenderly, kissed her side face, and gently smelled the aroma of wine on her body, feeling like he was about to get drunk.After being quiet for a while, she took off her coat and pants, picked her up, put her gently on the bed, and covered her with the quilt.

Just as Mu Li was about to turn around and twist a hot towel to wipe her face, Lan Ni suddenly grabbed her hand.As if she had grasped some treasure, she put it on the side of her face and rubbed it lightly.With eyes closed, he muttered something over and over again.Mu Li's heart melted into a puddle of water, she had never seen such a lovely and soft Lan Ni.Leaning down, I wanted to kiss her lips, but when I got closer, I suddenly heard Lan Ni's whisper:

"It's not...an ant on a string...it's a grasshopper on a string..."

ah?Mu Li was stunned for a moment, then laughed.The eldest lady of their family is really extraordinary, and the stupid words she said after being drunk are also extraordinary.

"You're not allowed...to marry her...You're not allowed to..."

Not allowed to marry her?Who are you marrying?What kind of dream Lanny is having is really weird.Mu Li shook his head, and was just about to get up and go to the bathroom to get a towel, when Lan Ni called out a name clearly:

"Jiang Muli...Jiang Muli..."

Mu Li's expression froze instantly, his heart felt as if a feather had been brushed by him, and a subtle feeling arose.Suddenly something popped up in my mind, but I couldn't grasp it for a moment.

"Hiss..." The headache came without a cause, as if someone suddenly drilled his skull with a drill, and the skull cracked.She raised her hand to cover her head, her face grim with pain.

"Ah!" The pain suddenly intensified, so that she couldn't support such a strong nerve, and she cried out in pain.

【Ali, Mom has something to tell you...】

【It's mom I'm sorry for you...】

[Don't be afraid, it won't hurt...]

【You will be the strongest...】

【Hope...Hope...Hope...】

[Jiang Muli! 】

"Ah!!!" Countless messages poured out of her brain like a torrent, almost bursting her head.Unable to bear it, Mu Li let out a scream, his eyes turned white instantly, and he passed out.

***

"Ari..."

In the darkness, a voice called her.Gentle palms caressed her face.Gradually, the darkness dissipated, and the light penetrated through the eyelids. There was a slight tingling between her brows. She frowned and opened her eyes with some difficulty.

"Finally woke up, Ali, how do you feel?"

"Lanny..." She called with a hoarse voice, with a little difficulty.Lan Ni's appearance slowly formed in front of her eyes.

"Well, yes, the fever is gone. According to her physique, she will be fine after resting for half a day." A cold voice sounded from the other end. Mu Li turned his eyes and saw Lin Zhao standing on the other side of the bed holding his hands. with a thermometer.

"Water..." Mu Li felt his throat was about to catch fire.

Lan Ni hurriedly helped her up, poured a glass of water from the bedside table, and fed her to drink little by little.Mu Li felt that his body was limp and he couldn't exert his strength.After drinking the water, I felt that the burning feeling was much better.

"What's wrong with me?"

"You fainted and developed a high fever. After lying down for a day and two nights, you finally woke up." Lin Zhao explained.

"Have fainted? Ah...it seems...fainted." Mu Li felt that her brain was a little confused, and she was searching her memory.That night, he just arrived at General Dongluo's mansion. After dinner, he brought Lan Ni back to his room.The memory so far is still very clear, but she can't remember exactly what happened in the room.

After a while, Mu Li suddenly reacted:

"I lay in bed for a day and two nights? Doesn't that mean I'm going back today?"

Lan Ni smiled: "Yeah, it was supposed to be a return trip today. Because of your health, the leader decided to stay one more night and set off tomorrow morning."

Mu Li smiled wryly and said: "Sorry, I don't know what's wrong with me, this illness happened for no reason, and I wasted everyone's time."

"What are you talking about? You are sick, and the leader is more anxious than me." Lan Ni laughed, "She will never let you drag your sick body around."

Lan Ni's words caused a strange feeling in Mu Li's heart, and it was fleeting. She didn't think about it and put it aside for the time being.Then ask:

"I've been in a coma for the past few days, how are we doing?"

"Don't worry, the leader and teacher are here, and the food preparation will be done soon." Lan Ni said.

"Teacher? You mean Teacher Du Bo is in Harvest City?" Mu Li was surprised.

"That's right, Mr. Du Bo came to Harvest City to prepare food a long time ago, and the leader came here just to do the final inspection and finishing work."

No wonder I haven't seen Mr. Du Bo at the headquarters of Chudu these days. It turned out that he came to Harvest City.He was preparing food before he got the hidden program. It seems that the leader is imperative for this expedition plan.

Speaking of hidden programs, after 84 hours of overnight interpretation and analysis, it has been confirmed that the three treasure points in General Friesman's memory are indeed correct.Moreover, the specific geographical coordinates of the treasure spot in Geneva, Switzerland have also been released.Now, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.After visiting General Lorgar and borrowing manpower from her, the expedition can officially begin.

According to the hermit's explanation, the three treasure spots should all keep what they wanted to find.It's just a pity that Tokyo, Japan, which was originally the closest, has been submerged by the sea.Before the sinking of Tokyo, it was one of the best giant cities in the world. After the sinking, the terrain and environment became more complicated. In addition to the various aquatic insects hidden in the sea, the danger was too high, and salvage operations became almost impossible.And according to the few words left by General Christian before his death, what they were looking for was a very sophisticated instrument, which must not be used after being soaked in seawater for so many years, so it is better to give it up.

As for the treasure spot in Washington, there is not much hope.Originally, after the catastrophe, the hardest-hit area was the American continent, and it was difficult to guarantee that the treasures would remain intact.Even if it is still well preserved, but now there is no suitable ship to go to sea, it can only be given up.They can only pin their hopes on the instruments kept in Geneva, this treasure thousands of miles away, is their only hope.

"Eat something later, let's get up and walk." Lin Zhao said, "Lying down for a long time is not good for your health."

"Okay, thank you, Lin Zhao." Mu Li still has a good impression of this petite ninja girl. Although she has no expression and doesn't like to talk, she can be seen to be a very serious and kind person.Getting along with her is not very tiring, in fact, it is quite interesting.

Soon after, Lin Zhao said goodbye.Mu Li was hungry for a long time and didn't eat anything. After the waiter brought snacks and porridge, she immediately swept them away. This should be considered dinner. It's already the third day in the afternoon when they came to Dongluo. At 04, Lanny also ate something with her.During the period, Mu Li asked Lan Ni how she was doing these days when she was sick and comatose, and whether she had a headache when she was drunk.Lan Ni was absent-minded, and missed Mu Li's question twice.Mu Li vaguely feels that Lan Ni has something on her mind, but she has always been good at covering it up, and Mu Li is not sure whether her feeling is correct, so she can only temporarily put it aside in her heart.

With the heat coming from his abdomen, he finally gained some strength.So after taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, Mu Li and Lan Ni walked out of the room side by side, and went for a walk in General Dongluo's mansion to digest food.

The General's Mansion covers a vast area, surrounded by verandas and interlaced with courtyard buildings, which is very complicated.The two have not been here for a long time, and they don't know the way, they just walk according to their nature.There are not many servants in the mansion, and after walking for such a long time, I didn't meet any of them.When they reached the garden pond, the two suddenly heard the sound of arguing behind the latticed windows of the water pavilion.Listening to the tone, one can tell that the people who are arguing are He Yingning and her mother, General He Yun.

The two stopped in their tracks, Mu Li was a gentleman, he didn't bother to eavesdrop, so he turned around and left.But Lan Ni grabbed her arm, forced her to hide in a hidden corner near the waterside pavilion, and whispered:

"Don't go, let's listen and talk."

Mu Li had no choice but to accompany him.

"Mother, you can't do this. Although I am your daughter, I am also an independent person. How can you always restrain me?"

"Ning Ning, your brother... is no longer able to do it anymore. Mom is left with you now. You are the only heir of the He family. I will never allow you to have any troubles. It's fine if you go out for charity every day, this is you My mother doesn't care about your own career. But tell me the truth, you just came back this time and you are going to travel far away, saying that you are going to the city of ice and snow to do charity projects, it is a lie."

He Yun seemed to have guessed what He Yingning was thinking, and the mother and daughter didn't speak for a while.

"Tell me, do you want to go with Assassin's people?"

"No mother." He Yingning said hastily.

"No? Ning Ning, since I was a child, I can't tell what you're thinking? Don't lie to me again."

"Then mother, you told me not to lie to you, and you don't lie to me either. Tell me, have you cooperated with General Friesman and Assassin?"

He Yun seemed at a loss for words, and answered after a while:

"That's not your concern."

"Mother! You just said that I am the heir of the He family, but you protect me forever and don't let me know anything. How can I inherit? I don't have that ability."

General He Yun did not answer.

"Mom, I just really want to grow up..."

"Ning Ning...that feud, you have to stay away from her." General He Yun suddenly changed the subject.

"Mother! She is my savior."

"But she also almost killed you!" General He Yun's voice suddenly rose, and the backlog of majesty burst out for a moment, "She is very dangerous, and there are some things you don't understand. In short, don't get close to her, and you don't want to be near her recently." Go out and promise mom."

The gate of the water pavilion was suddenly pushed open, and He Yingning rushed out, the anger, bewilderment and sadness all over her body could be felt from far away.

Lan Ni and Mu Li stood in the corner, taking everything into their eyes quietly.

"Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite." Mu Li sighed softly.

Lanny said:

"Let's go, we should go back."

"He Yingning really intends to go with us? It's been a long time coming home, what is she trying to do?" On the way back, Mu Li asked Lan Ni.

"This Miss He has lofty ambitions that are not apparent on the surface. She wants to follow Assassin, probably because she has seen that what Assassin is doing may be of great benefit to changing the Federation. This is in line with her The ambitions are the same, and she yearns for it in her heart." Lan Ni analyzed, then she paused and smiled, "Of course, hatred is also an important reason."

"It can't be seen that there will be people who like that fierce rivalry." Mu Li also laughed.

"It's not fair for you to say that. Isn't there someone who wants a dull wood like yours?" Lan Ni blinked her eyes mischievously.

With a helpless expression on his face, Mu Li lovingly embraced Lan Ni's shoulders, kissed her on the side of her forehead, and then took her hand, interlocking his fingers.

"But having said that, how did this Qiu Zheng offend General He Yun and make her so disgusted. It stands to reason that Qiu Zheng is also He Yingning's savior." Mu Li asked.

"You, you are really slow in some aspects. Can't you see what kind of person General He Yun wants He Yingning to marry in the future? You have to have a good family background, know how to manage, be willing to marry, and be sincere to He Yingning. In fact, rather than He is looking for a partner, rather he is looking for an assistant housekeeper. He can help He Yingning inherit the huge He family, manage the He family well, and then reproduce, so that the He family can prosper from generation to generation. What kind of hatred do you say about these things? Is it right to fight? What's more, Qiu Zheng almost killed He Yingning, if she hadn't gone mad and fought with the military and police, He Yingning would not have missed the prime time for first aid, and almost died."

Mu Li sighed, people from big aristocratic families do have to consider these issues when it comes to marriage.

"But are Qiu Zheng and He Yingning really interested in each other? Why do I think it's still a long way off? We can't just be worrying about it."

"That's not necessarily the case. A certain person has had a bad temper these days, like a hedgehog, offending almost everyone around her. If you weren't sick, I guess you would be the first to fight with her."

Mu Li blinked blankly, looking at Lan Ni.

Lan Ni smiled and stretched out her hand to pinch her nose, saying:

"Fool, you will know when you see Qiu Zheng at dinner at night."
