Chapter 42 Life is like wine

The carriage ran wildly on the stone road, and the flames of the villa soaring into the sky were far behind us. The fire wiped out all traces.

Ignatius's ruthless, dry and old hands were folded in his sleeves as usual, his body, which always sat upright, was leaning against the carriage exhausted, and Harrick brought a glass of warm wine to his mouth , he sighed, took two sips from Harik's hand, and then waved his hand.

Harrick took back the glass of wine, which was still almost full, and took out a hot towel to wipe Ignatius' hands and neck.

During this process, Ignatius began to speak in a strange tone again, and this time I recognized that it was the Elki language that old Alter had spoken to us.

Even the knowledgeable Alter, with his amazing intelligence, carefully searched through the vast sea of ​​books, and finally deduced some simple pronunciation and sentence patterns from the scraps of information he found, but Ignatius was able to It is a strange thing to be fluent in this long-lost language. Could it be that he is a direct descendant of the master of these languages?

Ignatius softly instructed the boss and the golden retriever not to cause trouble in the future trip, but to be patient as much as possible. In the near future, they will have countless opportunities to vent their hunting instincts.

The boss and the golden retriever nodded dispensably. For them, this kind of entertainment is not very interesting, and there is no sense of danger at all. On the grassland, one must be careful every day, and the premonition of danger will come at any time. And it is quite helpless and frustrating to face a unilateral slaughter of a lustful human being not for hunting food.

After Xiaohuo was brought to the carriage, he stayed huddled in a blanket, with a few gorgeous tail feathers leaking out.

Since it was rescued, it hasn't paid me much attention anymore, and it didn't even notice the eyes that made me look forward to it. This guy is still as defiant as ever. Even if he is a friend with you, he still has this kind of virtue, and he doesn't understand it at all. What is humility and politeness.

The boss just took a look at it, and was no longer interested in it. Instead, the golden retriever cared about the beautiful feathers on its body, and always wanted to reach out to fiddle with it. Xiao Huo, who was disturbed, mercilessly Aim at its hand, and peck it fiercely.

Even on the grasslands, firebirds are very rare. They are too beautiful and eye-catching, but lack the necessary means of self-protection, which is almost a fatal weakness on the grasslands.

After a day of driving, we finally came to Morse City, the provincial capital of the Province of Morre.

After traveling for so long and seeing so many towns, one gets bored of the sameness.

The characteristic of the Ross Empire is that there are Ross towns everywhere.

The designers of the Rus Empire built their cities in a uniform style, usually with a grid of streets planned first, followed by iconic temples, theaters, baths, roads, and outdoor public spaces, and in large cities, perhaps The famous Ross Colosseum is scattered in the town in almost a fixed position.

The difference between St. Roch City and Morse City is that St. Roch City is bigger, more prosperous, and extravagant.

It can be said that the Rus Empire built the same cities over and over again, thousands of times, at least on our way, we saw hundreds of twin cities, and the founders of the empire used this method to spread throughout the empire. Ross image, and achieved great success.

Rus style architecture has become a symbol of power and order, glory and splendor throughout the empire, even in this chaotic and waning present.

We opened the carriage door and looked at the city. The roads were crowded with people, old and young, big and small. Puffs of smoke rose from the sky, and the smell of barbecue was in the nose-they were burning corpses.

Beside the rich jewel-encrusted carriages are hungry scrawny little boys with their fingers in their mouths.

However, this view can be seen almost anywhere, including my original world.

For the boss and the others, this scene did not move them at all. At the beginning, they were amazed by the great contrast in human society, and they were also incomprehensible to the contrast between a strong poor man and a thin rich man.

In the eyes of wild animals, the only difference between them is the body given by nature. If you are unlucky and get a bad or bad one, it is likely to have been eliminated when you were just born.

But then the boss and the golden retriever probably figured it out, and they concluded that this situation is similar to ours, but it is more unfair than ours.

They will only look at these people calmly, without sympathy or pity, and of course, without disgust or contempt.

We entered a tall building, and a person greeted us. Ignatius jumped out of the carriage tremblingly with the support of Harrick. When he saw that person, his livid face finally eased. He said softly, "Love, long time no see."

"Igge, I thought the last time we met was a farewell. I didn't expect that I would have the chance to see you again." This small man was about the same age as Ignatius, thin and thin, with a black and dusty face. s face.

The two of them held my arm and hid aside to talk.

I jumped out of the carriage, and Xiao Huo flew out with me. Its gorgeous tail feathers immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding servants and slaves. Cleaned everything up, but under my strong protest, he had no choice but to give up the idea, but looking at his gloomy eyes, I have no doubt that if I let down my vigilance a little bit, he would hurt me without hesitation. Let's do it.

I was impressed by the almost expressionless way he killed that night.

I let Xiaohuo stay in the carriage all the way, but now that I have arrived at the destination, it is far away from that place, and it is too cruel to let a bird stay in such a narrow and enclosed space, so I let Little Fire followed me out of the carriage, but seeing the commotion it caused, I thought it might not be a good idea.

In the evening we were led to a dinner party in a neighboring building.

Originally, I couldn't and didn't want to participate, but when the little Love saw my obedient appearance, his eyes lit up, and he immediately discussed with Ignatius to bring me along. His reason made Ignatius Hughes agreed.

So, now, I stand between the boss and the golden retriever, listening to the little man Love introducing them to the governor of this province, Lord Brady, I somehow feel that his ten fingers are full of rings and his style is very similar to someone .

The people of St. Rocco are insatiable for wine and olive oil, and they are also connoisseurs of the most exquisite luxury goods in the empire. Here, you can still see this style, but most of the locals have replaced it with beer and butter.

Lord Brady probably wants to be consistent with the habits of St. Roch City—this is the hobby of the local provincial nobles of the entire Ross Empire. custom.

He shows off his collection of fine wines, and his catchphrase is "life is like wine".

I saw the red liquid sloshing on the glass in his hand, and saw the hungry people outside the Governor's Palace, and I thought it was a great irony.

The little man, Love, was talking affectionately with Governor Brace, and Ignatius, who was not good at talking, stood there reluctantly, although I could see his disdain for Governor Brace from the depths of his eyes—this The arrogance and arrogance that come from the bottom of his bones are comparable to Xiaohuo.I saw the smile on Governor Brace's face turned into a flower. It seems that Love has given him some benefits. Love should be a very influential figure in this province. Governor Brace nodded frequently, and Love waved , let's go over.

The boss and Golden Retriever politely saluted Governor Brace according to the understanding of the nobles.

Governor Brace looked at them with round eyes, and then looked at me who was obediently following them in surprise, and said loudly, "Love, I believe what you said, this is really an outstanding person I have never seen , they're going to do a lot, and here's a chance for them to do it. I swear they'll be used."

Love bowed humbly, "I will trouble you to take care of the backs of these two families. We will be very grateful. If you have any requests, you can just ask them. The two of them are the hope of our family."

Governor Brace patted Love on the back, "Of course, of course."

He pulled the servant beside him and gave some instructions. Soon, the servant led a gorgeously dressed girl over.

"My dear Letty, come and meet your Uncle Love's nephews. They are all young talents and will definitely satisfy you." When Governor Brace saw this girl, his eyes almost disappeared from laughter. .

This girl named Letty is not outstanding in appearance, but she has a kind of aristocratic woman's unique air of superiority and femininity. She glared at her father with reproachful and shy eyes, and then used the standard etiquette of noble ladies to greet the boss and Golden Retriever salutes.

The boss returned a standard gentleman's salute, while the golden retriever returned an exaggerated bow with a more dissolute gesture, which greatly pleased the girl. She looked at the golden retriever, squinting at the calm and gentle Boss, your face is even redder.

Suddenly she saw me and screamed, almost piercing her eardrums.

The golden retriever came over, squatted down, hugged me in his arms, and kept rubbing, I decided to bear it.

Letty covered her mouth and listened to the golden retriever explaining something, er, the golden retriever said that I was his brother who grew up together, we grew up drinking the milk of a mother, when he was just born, he was too weak and was taken The ruthless mother was thrown in the wilderness, and was raised by a she-wolf, and I was his brother.

——This is really a story that moved people to tears.

Letty's eyes were wet, and she looked at the golden retriever pitifully with the brilliance of motherhood in her eyes.

Hey, young girl, how could you be fooled by this lion, can't you see the playfulness in his eyes?

The boring banquet was still going on, and there was an opportunity to meet the opposite sex. Soon after, the boss and the golden retriever were surrounded by beautifully dressed women. Deal with women.

And I was thinking about the opportunity to make a big splash.
