Whispering Poems

Chapter 1720 Xia De who is late

"I understand that even for her, I will hide it. This is my only chance for redemption."

Durut Giles clenched his fists and nodded, Shad waved at him:

"It's good that you understand. In addition, remember to go to the Three Cats Hotel at nine o'clock on Sunday morning to get the potion to relieve the curse. You have to stay on the first floor for an hour to get the antidote."

"Yes, sir."

The man nodded immediately, but he didn't know that Xia De wanted to find Sister Devlin and Priest Augustus, and asked the nun and priest to help him find out what was going on with Ruster Edwards' soul.

He turned around and was about to leave, but the girls with fiery passion were still waiting for him to go back in the room.But he took two steps forward, turned around and looked at Durut Giles, frowned slightly and asked:
"Viscount Chris Randall. A very familiar name. Did he participate in this spring's Tobesk Ring Riding Competition? (Chapter 1551)"

Durut Giles was taken aback:
"Oh, yes, I also went to the Edward III Arena to watch the game. But Uncle Randall failed to get a good ranking, so everyone will not take the initiative to mention it in front of him."

Xia De nodded thoughtfully, turned and left here.

The enthusiasm of girls is always hard to refuse, and the enthusiasm of Rezia and Dorothy is even more fascinating to foreigners.Shad didn't go to the banquet hall anymore, but turned into a cat and walked through the Yodle Palace, and returned to Leizia's bedroom.After knocking on the window in cat form, the arm behind the curtain grabbed him in almost immediately.

He originally thought that he would be able to leave the Yordle Palace after the banquet, but Rezia thought that Xia De and Dorothy had finally arrived in her bedroom—this kind of opportunity was really rare, and of course he couldn't just leave like this.

Therefore, after the banquet that night, although Xia De left the Yoddle Palace with his female companion and other guests, he returned here in a carriage secretly arranged by Her Royal Highness the Princess.

I have to admit that the big bed in Leiziya's bedroom is indeed very comfortable.Although a little too soft, but this kind of trivial matter does not need to be too concerned.What happened in Rezia's bedroom that night, only the three of them knew, but the soft bed and soft girls did cause Shade to fail to get up on time early on Saturday morning.

It wasn't until Adelina entered the room to say hello to Rezia on Saturday morning that Shad finally said goodbye to Rezia and Dorothy, and broke free from the "spider web" woven by long red and blond hair.When saying goodbye to Xia De, everyone no longer cared about what happened last Saturday night, and they all felt that Xia De's enthusiasm hadn't changed in any way compared to before.

"The day of the red butterfly just ended this afternoon, Xia De, although there is a meeting in the afternoon, if you are fine after the meeting, we can meet again."

These were the last words Leiziya said to Xia De. Adelina reminded herself that she and Miss Galina were leaving by train this afternoon, so the group who were definitely going to see them off had no time to "continue".

For various reasons, in short, it was already 09:30 in the morning when Shad arrived at the Green Lake Hotel to meet Meghan.

"If you don't show up again, I'm leaving."

The beautiful lady behind the newspaper said, let Xia De see her impatient expression after putting down the newspaper.Xia De did make her wait for too long, the two made an appointment to pick up the [Spirit Ring] today, but Xia De made her wait here for a full hour.

"Sorry, really sorry."

Xia De, holding Mia in his arms, repeatedly said that it wasn't that he took Mia out on purpose today, but that the cat hadn't seen Xia De all night, so he wanted to follow him no matter what he said this morning:
"I encountered some things that I couldn't talk about, so I was delayed. How about I treat you to dinner at noon?"

"I don't really mean to challenge you, you don't have...lunch? Is this a formal invitation?"

Megan suddenly asked again, as if her mood suddenly improved, she tapped her finger on the side of the teacup:

"Then let's start as soon as possible. The destination is the lake, and there is still a long way to go."

The carriage of Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals was already waiting outside. After getting into the carriage, Xia De told about the test results of the four blood samples. Megan had already guessed that his father was really of Edwards blood, so he didn’t know it at all. Not surprised.

She also talked to Xia De about what happened in Green Lake City in the past few days. She seems to have confirmed the period when Xia De did not appear, and he must not be in this city:
"Last time I told you that Minsk Todels, the thirteenth ring 'white dove messenger' of the Church of Peace, has arrived here, and the thirteenth rings of the Church of Nature and the Church of the Sun have also arrived in the past two days. It is the "Nightmare" Witch" and "Children of Light". In the past 500 years, this is the first time that so many thirteen-ring magicians have come to the Green Lake area. Adding my ancestors and the man who hides the mirror, there will be five at once. "

"Now the church is still searching on the island?"

"Yes, for the sake of safety, everyone will be cleared after each investigation, and people will be arranged to land on the island after an interval of ten hours. But even if this is the case, once there is space loss, it will have to wait longer before returning to normal. Yesterday afternoon, the church It was suspected that we encountered the Cangjing people on the island, but there was no fight, and both sides were very restrained. I think it is unlikely that we will land on the island this week, but it will definitely be no problem to get the fourth key next week."

She said it confidently:

"In addition, people from the Prophet Association also arrived yesterday. They were sent directly from the headquarters of the Prophet Association. This time, a vice-chairman of the [-]th ring was leading the team. If it is not enough, the current president of the [-]th ring will also Come on. With so many people, no matter how powerful my ancestor is, I’m afraid he won’t be able to hide it.”

She also regards the "Mirror Hidden Man" as the enemy of her ancestors, which is actually true. Although the [Mirror Association] is not a good person, but this time their goal is also the secret of the central island of Green Lake.

"Actually, things are not that easy. Don't forget that there were demons around your ancestors."

Xia De didn't think that the enemy this time was just a simple thirteenth ring.

"Since the devil is mentioned, the place we are going to next may really have something to do with the devil."

The carriage drove the two of them south out of the city, and after crossing the countryside between the urban area and the lake, they did not go in the direction of Pukhov Village, which Shad was familiar with, but towards the northeast of Green Lake, which Shad had never been to. side forward.

The smooth country road quickly became potholed, until the carriage could no longer move forward, the two got out of the car and continued along the country road.Near eleven o'clock in the morning, a fork appeared in front of the road, and the tattered road signs pointed to their destination, which was the deserted lakeside manor.

Maybe this place used to be very prosperous, but now the bottom of the fence around the manor has been completely covered by weeds, and the weeds in the courtyard have covered fountains, trails, and swings, but the tree in the yard is still tall and straight.

Green moss climbed on the walls of the manor house, and in the darkness inside the glassless windows, something strange seemed to be peeping out of the outside world.Desolate and gloomy, this is Xia De's most obvious feeling about this place.

"This used to be the vacation estate of the local Earl Gaiman, and it was once the best vacation estate outside the city. At the most prosperous time, it hosted more than 100 nobles from the north and south sides of Green Lake for a banquet at one time, but these are all 50 It happened many years ago."

Standing outside the fence gate, Megan said to Shad who was looking up at the mansion.Mia stood on Shad's shoulder, and turned to look at the squirrel standing on the big tree next to the gate of the manor.

The squirrel met the cat's eyes and was scared away by the cat's meowing.This satisfied the orange cat, which has never been afraid of anything smaller than itself.

"How did it get abandoned here?"

Xia De asked, stretched out his hand and clicked the lock, then tore off the iron chain and threw it aside.

"In the autumn of 1801, Earl Gaiman fell off his horse and died. When his children divided the property, there were some accidents that attracted the local church—blood in the basement or something, you know. After investigation, Earl Gaiman suddenly He made a fortune and was able to build such a luxurious manor because he made a wish on something very dangerous. I didn’t get a specific investigation report, I only know that shortly after the Earl’s death, the Gaiman family fell and was deprived of their title gone."

The witch entered the manor in front of Xia De and led the way for Xia De:

"Because of the precedent of Bad Eye Barry, I know that the ancestors must be in the cities on both sides of Green Lake, and there are more traces. I asked my girls to investigate the strange things that have happened in the local area for nearly a hundred years, and immediately discovered Gai The past of the Man family. Later, some definite evidence was found, proving that the [Ring of Mind] was once held by Earl Gaiman.

But when I told you about the ring last time, I didn't know the exact location of the ring.It could have been taken to a grave, it could be in the hands of a descendant, it could be on this abandoned holiday estate, it could have been donated to the city museum as a common item, or it could have been lying in the evidence vault of the police station.careful."

She waved her finger, and the black snake that swam in front of her suddenly flew up, and then the snake was divided into two parts:
"Fortunately, no one else has found that ring. Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals found his descendants, then pieced together the details, and finally locked the manor through an old photo. But we don't need to find it ourselves, I've already made sure, The ring is under the floor of the bedroom on the third floor."

In fact, she could send someone to get it, but she just wanted to be alone with Xia De again, so she invited Xia De to come with her.

Shad has explored many abandoned manors. When he was in the Randall Valley, he also explored Oxenfurt Manor in various states.But the one in front of me, because it is far away from the city and the village, and because the lake is attacked by water vapor, its building structure and interior decoration have been dilapidated to the extreme.
