0350 Night Banquet
"So strange. ◎◎ �
"Uh, I think this kid might have accidentally fallen or something while running away." Guan Heng made a perfunctory excuse and then said to Mrs. Linka: "It just so happens that you can hand over this villain to General Lacey, the commander of the Iron Armored Army stationed in the city, and teach him a lesson!"
"Haha, the benefactor is right." Mrs. Linka was still a little confused and kicked the strong man hard with the heel: "Damn it, how dare you hold me hostage, go to death!"
"Okay, dear countess." Guan Heng said softly: "Stop being angry with such idiots. You should hurry back to the place where you are staying to suppress your fear. Also, this is the crystal cover of the ambergris berries they snatched away. Should they send it back to your home or to the store in the store on the street?"
"Uh, benefactor, I have to ask you to take this crystal cover to go home with me." Mrs. Linka smiled awkwardly: "Because this thing is too heavy, I, a weak woman, can't handle it at all."
In fact, Mrs. Linka was thinking about how to thank Guan Heng for saving her life, so she came up with an excuse to let Guan Heng go home with her.
At this moment, there were bursts of rapid horse hooves near the gate of the abandoned manor. It turned out that Commander Lacey and Hodley arrived with the armored army.?????? ¤
"Guan Heng, we're here." Still far away, Hodley immediately shouted at Guan Heng: "The big bird you raised flew in the air near the city gate, and I guessed that there might be progress, so I'll bring people here quickly."
"Haha, I didn't expect that Lao Huo, you are also quite smart." Guan Heng smiled and quickly introduced to everyone: "This is Mrs. Linka. I just rescued her from the bad guy."
"Oh, Lord Scarlett, you are frightened!" The fearless and fearful Commander Lacey quickly turned over and dismounted and half-kneeled in front of the countess: "Madam Linka, Lacey is extremely apologized for the accident you encountered. Under my rule, there are illegal people who attempt to detriment to you. I am dereliction of duty and I am guilty!"
"Okay, you get up first, Commander Lacey." Mrs. Linka, who had just been rescued and survived the disaster, seemed to have no temper. She whispered: "Just just now, I heard from my benefactor, Mr. Heng, that it was you who strictly guarded the city gates and did not let the gangsters take advantage of the chaos to take me out of the city. This was also indirectly saving my life. I thank you for not having time."
"Uh, I'm in panic, my wife praised me." Commander Laixi stood up from a half-kneeling state, looked at Guan Heng gratefully, and secretly remembered the matter of Guan Heng pleading for him in his heart.
At this moment, Lacey thought to herself: "Hodley is right. This Mr. Guan Heng is really a righteous person. He just said a few words in front of Mrs. Linka easily, which saved me a lot of trouble. Good people, it is worth making friends!"
"Mr. Guan Heng's benefactor..." As soon as Mrs. Linka said this, Guan Heng hurriedly said, "Dear countess, don't call him "Mr." You can't afford it.??
"Haha, don't say that, the benefactor is the benefactor." Mrs. Linka said carelessly: "I can't lose my etiquette."
After thinking about it, Guan Heng replied politely: "You should call me Guan Heng, it's not rude."
"Well, then stop calling me the 'deserving Countess'." The Scarlet Countess smiled and said, "Just call Mrs. Linka."
"Dadada..." At this moment, a rapid sound of horse hooves came from afar. Everyone looked up and saw that it was Mrs. Linka's red carriage coming.
"Ahem." The countess cleared his throat and then said to everyone: "Everyone, I am out of danger today. Thanks to Guan Heng and everyone's efforts to help me, in order to express my gratitude, I decided to hold a banquet in my residence tonight and invite everyone to attend together."
"Madam, let me take my leave first." At this time, Commander Lacey said softly: "I will take the captured criminals back to the military camp to deal with the aftermath."
"Okay, General Lacey." The Scarlet Eagle said slightly: "I will be waiting for your grand ceremony at the local banquet tonight. Thank you for your hard work."
So Lacey ordered the iron armored soldier to take away the fainting strong man like a dead dog, and turn himself on and say goodbye to the horse.
A moment later, it was dusk, and the luxurious mansion of the Scarlet Eagle in the city.
Mrs. Linka was at this time in the living room to entertain Guan Heng, Hyde, Plang and Hodley.
At the banquet, everyone was having a good time and having a good chat. At this time, Guan Heng glanced at the crystal cover of ambergris berries placed on the nearby table. He asked the countess casually: "Madam..."
"Guan Heng, why have you forgotten again?" Mrs. Linka took a sip of the red wine in the glass and said, "Didn't you agree? I'm a few years older than you, and I want to call me Sister Linka."
"Yes, Sister Linka." Guan Heng quickly changed his words. He had never expected that this duke was the best wine, especially after he was half drunk, he was more enthusiastic about everyone.
In fact, this is also the generous side of Mrs. Linka. She is not very cunning and is very sincere to her friends. Therefore, the Countess is the noble with the best reputation among the lords of the East County of Kauru Kingdom, and everyone is willing to become friends with her.
Guan Heng blinked his eyes and asked, "Sister Linka, you just said that those ambergris berries suddenly grew in your yard. What's going on?"
"Haha, it's very strange." Mrs. Linka signaled the waiter beside her to pour a glass of red wine for herself, and then said to Guan Heng: "Every year on the death day of my deceased ghost, I would take people to visit the graves, about three years ago..."
That year, Mrs. Linka took a few servants to the cemetery to sweep the graves of her dead husband, but accidentally saw a vermilion berry tree on the slope near the cemetery. More than a dozen bright berries grew on it, with a strange fragrance and a strange one.
Mrs. Linka didn't know what the name of this thing was. She sent people to inquire about it at that time. In the end, there were a few knowledgeable elders. After seeing the berry tree, they said with certainty that this was a rare ambergris berries and had an amazing healing effect. The people who ate it almost eliminated all diseases.
Upon hearing this, the Scarlet Eagle was immediately overjoyed because her only son had a strange disease not long ago and the medicine was gone, which made Mrs. Linka so worried that the appearance of ambergris berries was like a blessing from heaven.
The berry tree was quickly properly protected by the Scarlet Eagle's orders. Then, the berries on it entered the belly of Mrs. Linka's son one by one. The fruit did have a miraculous effect. After Mrs. Linka's only son took it, she saved her life.
