Chapter 227

After a long silence, kukas said, "OK, wait a minute. I'll pack up and go with you."

Hearing this answer, the secret female mage looked very happy. She gave a low cheer, and then summoned more than 50 puppet guards to follow her to the banquet, while others stayed in the church to take care of the normal operation here.

Kukas quickly prepared his clothes. He just wore a heart armor and a wide black cloak, and then wrapped chains around his body. As for other things, I didn't carry them at all. On the one hand, he doesn't have the right weapons, but now he has chain support in killing.

He got into the carriage with the secret female mage, and the puppet guards rode on the war horse. In this way, they set out on the road and moved forward to a manor dozens of miles away.

The manor is a resting place for the Marquis outside the city. Every autumn, he will lead his family here to enjoy the autumn scenery. There are maple trees, ancient statues and tombstones. Visitors here can feel some flavor of the ancient times. There are elegant nobles who will take the opportunity to express their feelings here and let the minstrels make broken sentences or short poems to record as an expression of their talents.

Because the banquet was held in the evening, kukas and their schedule was not tense at all. Instead, they had enough time to let them squander. Along the way, the secret female mage kept telling kukas about what happened during this period, both about the night watchman church and the Bauhinia Empire, but more about the new Lord.

"The new lord controls 13 towns, and this time he is invited by the Marquis to attend the banquet there." the secret sorceress curled up beside kukas's leg and whispered: "This Lord is very young. It is said that he used to be a descendant of a broken aristocrat. Because of his glorious history, the imperial aristocracy decided to give him our area as his territory."

"En!" kukas leaned lazily on the carriage. His mind was not on the words of the secret female mage. Now he was thinking about how to remove the drug residue in his body as soon as possible to complete the transfer.

The secret female mage seemed unaware of this, and she continued to whisper: "Although the new Lord is young, his means are extremely cruel. It is said that he came here from the imperial capital and was intercepted and killed countless times along the way, but he survived and killed the killers and mercenaries who intercepted him. Well, it is said that he has the support of the hand of glory behind him. Moreover, he met the daughter of a marquis who has real power on the road. They are two young people Get along very hot, so it makes him look stronger. "

"The hand of glory?" kukas murmured in a low voice. The words of the secret female mage reminded him of what happened on the barren ice field. There he had a conflict with the members of the hand of glory. If he is really a member of the hand of glory, I'm afraid he must be more careful. He heard the female mage in black about the members of the hand of glory. "What's the Lord's name and occupation?"

"Chagus Guligu!" the secret female mage twisted her body and whispered, "he didn't smell like a professional. He should be just an ordinary person."

"Ha ha! A lucky Lord," kukas murmured in a low voice, and then continued to think about his own affairs.

The secret female mage saw that kukas was not interested in the Lord, so she kept silent.

In the afternoon, they arrived at the Marquis's manor. The manor was surrounded by red maple trees. Large tracts of red leaves fluttered on the branches, some rising with the wind and some sticking to the branches. Birds played in the forest, gentle animals poked their heads out in the forest, looked at strange creatures curiously, and then ran quickly.

Following a winding forest path, kukas and them entered the manor.

The manor is small, covering an area of only more than 100 mu. The buildings in the manor are all made of wood, and the highest is just a two-story building. When kukas and his team arrived, a large number of carriages and noble horses were parked outside the manor.

A servant quickly appeared in front of them and invited them into the living room of the manor. The servant was very talkative. He enthusiastically introduced kukas to them about the situation in the manor, and then said that he could call them as long as he had any command.

In the center of the manor is the living room, which covers an area of ten mu. There are pavilions around the living room, surrounded by flowers, plants and trees in different seasons. There is also a spring gushing from a rockery, and then a winding stream is formed in the manor. There are fish in the stream, and some early guests, accompanied by servants or women, sit by the stream and fish leisurely 。

There are four pavilions. In each pavilion, maids play, play and sing, and play melodious music. In addition, calligraphers and painters take pen, ink, paper and inkstone to shuttle back and forth among the guests, depict portraits for them, or draw landscape paintings for them at the request of the guests.

Jugglers perform all kinds of tricks in an open space. They are all ordinary people: take out white pigeons from flowers, change flying eagles from under the wings of white pigeons, and deduct pearls the size of longan from the claws of flying eagles.

"This is the life I should enjoy, this is the city life." the shadow female mage muttered in a low voice. The scene in front of her made her deeply like it here.

"As a professional, is that what you pursue?" kukas didn't pay attention to everything in front of him.

"Yes, since I left the abyss like galore City, I have been thinking hard about what my life should be like in the future. Until now, I know that all this in front of me is where my life will be in the future." the secret female mage whispered her thoughts.

Instead of entering the living room, they sat on chairs next to a pavilion, eating cakes, listening to music and the whispers of minstrels.

There were only two guards beside them, because according to the rules of the manor, there were restrictions on the guards carried by each group of guests. The level of the secret female mage is not enough, so she can only carry two guards. The others rest and wait in the temporary residence outside the manor. However, kukas was armed and did not carry the puppet guards, because in his opinion, if there was a real danger, the guards would not play a half role here, and might even bring him trouble.
