Ming Na then stayed in that beautiful house obediently, living the life of what her grandfather called a "home girl". She never left the house, and every day she would either practice the sword moves she had learned before, or run circles around the yard. Review magic and potion making.
She was now able to prepare the simplest hemostatic agent by herself. Thinking of the suffering she had suffered in Nomonka, she prepared two more bottles. In addition, the color-changing potion was almost used up, but it was actually quite useful. She also tried to prepare it while recalling the procedure taught by the old magician.
In this way, life will not be difficult. There is no one to control her, and she does not have to be exposed to the sun, rain, or fear, so she sleeps until she wakes up naturally every day and can do whatever she likes. In order to make the yard smell better and to make her stay more comfortable, she diligently used magic to clean the little place where she lived. This is her first time living in such a beautiful house. When she gets home, she must tell her mother.
As for the food we eat every day, it is delivered by the man named Frido. Mingna didn't like this person at first, but her grandfather said that he always bullied the weak and feared the strong, and would not dare to resist the strong, so there was no need to worry, so she still obeyed her grandfather's wishes. After two days, Mingna was very satisfied with his service.
Frido had the good sense to ask her about her favorite food in advance. The food delivered every day included deliciously grilled meat and chicken legs, as well as fresh oranges. The staple food was Weisha's scones, although they tasted delicious. A little dry, but tastes pretty good. The only thing I wasn’t satisfied with was the drink that was delivered, which was also called milk tea, but it was different from what I drank in East. I heard it was made from mare’s milk native to Wishart mixed with a kind of black tea. It was very unpleasant to drink. Mingna couldn't bear it and collapsed.
Every time when eating, Frido would stay and chat with Minna. After spending more time together, Minna felt that he was a pretty good person. He knows a lot of knowledge. He can tell you everything about the porcelain and wine sets in the house. He also knows how to take care of the flowers and plants in the yard. He also knows how to take care of the styles, positions and materials of various furniture furnishings. The origin, color combination, food, drinks, condiments, cooking methods... there is nothing he doesn't know. He can also tell Ming Na about the behavioral characteristics, clothing, diet and living habits of people from various countries on the mainland. He can even explain the slight differences in accents between people in different places, which is an eye-opener for Ming Na.
She couldn't help but ask: "Why do you know so much?" She had met several tavern owners, and none of them were as knowledgeable as Fredo. Only Old Joe knew more things, but he didn't know that much either. Some or not.
Frido smiled: "I am a person who buys and sells information. If I know too little, how can I judge which information is useful? Some things are not obvious to you."
Ming Na blinked: "What does this mean?"
"For example, a person who claims to be from a generation of nobles wears inappropriate clothes, a chair suddenly appears out of place among the matching furniture in a room, flowers that cannot bask in the sun are placed on the windowsill, and a person who never eats beef A few months after the person disappeared, he suddenly ordered a steak in a restaurant, and he was clearly dressed as a Shaonan native but spoke with a Nuojia accent... These strange things are all interesting."
"What do you mean?" Mingna continued to blink.
Frido was about to continue when he suddenly realized that the person he was talking to was still a child. He couldn't help but laugh at himself and coaxed Minna: "Isn't it strange that people and things that are usually familiar suddenly change their appearance? It must be so. Something happened, and it's my job to ask about these things. These things sound boring, so let's leave it alone. Didn't the young lady want to know which is the most famous barbecue restaurant in the town? I'll take you How about going for a walk?"
Ming Na almost agreed, but suddenly she remembered her grandfather's instructions before leaving and pouted: "If I don't go, grandpa will scold me..."
Frido didn't force anything: "Well, if you want to eat or play, just tell me and I will do it for you."
Ming Na knew that what he said was not a lie, he could really do it. I don't know if it was because she had offended Xiao Tianjian before, but Frido was very attentive to Ming Na. She would say whatever she wanted, give her whatever she wanted, and did everything possible to coax this little ancestor. If Ming Na was still the willful little girl who just left home, she might be spoiled by him.
Xiao Tianjian has been gone for three days. Except for seeing Frido when eating, Ming Na spent the rest of the time alone. She got impatient with waiting and began to think wildly.
Grandpa said he was going to hold a funeral for his friend, but Frido said yesterday that the funeral had been held, so why hasn't Grandpa come back yet? Did he go somewhere else again
Minna suddenly remembered the person Frido mentioned that day... Mrs. Ziya, it was said that until three years ago, she still lived in this house, and judging from the decoration style of the house (she heard it from Frido) knowledge is learned and sold now), it is most likely the idea of Mrs. Ziya. Who could she be
Ming Na held her chin and thought carefully. When Uncle Qiao was chatting with her, he secretly revealed something to her. It seemed that her grandfather was very "romantic"? She didn't quite understand the meaning of the word "风流", but she only roughly understood that it meant that she had many "grandmothers". In addition to Grandma Mirabell and Grandma, Xiaola’s mother is also her grandmother. Could it be that Mrs. Ziya is also her grandmother
Ming Na was a little worried. How many grandmothers did Grandpa have? She can hardly remember it...
There was a sudden noise at the front door. Minna thought it was Frido bringing dinner, so she immediately jumped up and rushed out, only to see her grandfather leaning at the door and smiling at her.
"Grandpa!" She rushed forward happily, "You are finally back!"
Xiao Tianjian picked up his little granddaughter and kissed her twice: "Do you miss grandpa? Have you been good these days?"
"I'm a good boy. I've never been out. I practice and study diligently every day, but I miss grandpa very much. Grandpa, have you finished your friend's business?"
"It's done." Xiao Tianjian sat down on the sofa, picked up the water cup and poured it into his mouth, "It really annoys me to death. Those people only know how to fight for power and gain, and they want to win me over to help them conquer the world. Huh, just dream on it. ! I was too lazy to pay attention to them, so I left as soon as the funeral was over."
Ming Na asked in confusion: "Didn't the funeral happen yesterday? Then why did you come back now? Did you go to find the new grandma again?"
Xiao Tianjian almost choked on his saliva: "Wha, what new grandma? Who told you this?"
"Isn't it?" Minna tilted her head, "Isn't Mrs. Ziya that Frido was talking about that day your wife? She used to live here?"
Xiao Tianjian coughed several times depressedly and whispered: "She is not my wife, she is just...just a gift from a friend. Weisha's custom is that you cannot refuse gifts from others, so I accepted it. Anyway, the house is so big, it doesn’t matter if she has one more person..." Looking at his little granddaughter's innocent eyes, he suddenly felt a little guilty: "It's true, she was originally a singer, and I saw that she looks a bit like you Funuo. Grandma Ya couldn't bear to see her being played with, so she took her in, gave her a new name, and deprived her of her status. Now she has her own property and is living a good life. When I came back...it was indeed I went to see her..." But he didn't let the other party see him.
He thought of the enchanting woman who loved to wear purple gauze. Before she met him, she was just the lowest plaything in the eyes of others. Now she is the owner of one of the best entertainment oasis in Weisha, and she heard that she has a new lover. Even without the underground Duke's care, her status will not be shaken. Even without him, she would be fine.
After what happened with Fnoya and Lila, his thoughts on this aspect also faded away. Now that Ziya has a new life, he will let it go.
Mingna saw that her grandfather seemed to be sighing, so she asked: "Then she is not my new grandma? Then how many grandmas do I have?"
Xiao Tianjian was a little uncomfortable: "No, no, no, how can there be so many grandmas? I'm not a stallion..." After coughing twice, he changed the topic: "Are you hungry? Let's go out to eat? Things can be settled now. It’s over, it’s a rare trip, let’s just have a good day and head back home the day after tomorrow.”
Ming Na had a big smile on her face and nodded vigorously. She broke away from her grandfather's arms and went to change out of her clothes and shoes. At the same time, she collected the open books and potion box and handed them to her grandfather to put them in. Ring, pulled him out of the door, bouncing along the way, detailing the names of the major restaurants in the town that he had learned from Freedo in the past few days. Xiao Tianjian kept smiling as he listened to her, and finally made the decision Going to eat the charcoal grilled lamb chops.
Before reaching the street, Xiao Tianjian felt something was wrong and hurriedly grabbed his granddaughter. Suddenly, dozens of young and strong men appeared in front of them out of nowhere, each holding a scimitar and looking menacing. Then, dozens of people also emerged from the trees on the roadside, and behind them, there was also a sound. The sound of many footsteps. Adding up to the front, back, left and right, there were hundreds of people.
This was the first time Ming Na saw so many people surrounding her with knives. She was so nervous that she tightened her grandfather's hand. Looking back, she saw that her escape route had been blocked.
What happened
Soon someone came to reveal the answer to the mystery. A dark, fat and shiny middle-aged man with a curly mustache separated from the crowd and came to the front of Xiao Tianjian and his grandson. He bowed in a very artificial way: "Xiao Tianjian." Good evening, Earl. Since you left two days ago, our boss has been missing you and sincerely hopes to invite you to his home. What do you think?"
Xiao Tianjian narrowed his eyes and sneered at the corner of his mouth: "Is this posture of yours also called an invitation? You clearly want to kidnap me, right?"
"What you said is wrong." The fat black man shook his finger, "Our boss just wants to express his sincerity. It is really rude for a big shot like you to only send three or two people here."
Ming Na opened her eyes wide, this person is so shameless! As a child, she knew that no one would come to invite someone to be a guest with a knife, but this person actually said it was sincerity? !
Xiao Tianjian smiled: "Tell me, what does your boss want me to do?" He glanced around and said, "You want such a bunch of trash to besiege me?"
Everyone had a look of dissatisfaction on their faces, but the fat black man didn't take it seriously and just smiled: "Earl Xiao is really quick to talk. In fact, what our boss means is very simple. As long as you agree to help him control the entire Weisha underground power, And just promise not to get involved in Weisha anymore, and the trading firm will withdraw completely. For you, this is an easy thing to do."
It is indeed very easy. Today, when all employees of West's Xiao's Trading Company and Mengli's shop have retreated back to China, if he agrees to this condition, all he has to do is to sell all the shops, houses, etc., and then leave. That's it. But, when did he, Xiao Tianjian, obey other people's orders? And you also have to act as someone else's thug? How ridiculous!
"How dare a mere gang leader ask me to sacrifice my life for him?" He sneered, "Do you know who I am? Do you think that the sword in my hand is vegetarian after I haven't been here for a few years?!"
"Of course your swordsmanship is the best in the mainland." Fatty Hei still smiled, "But you are not alone. Isn't there a little lady beside you? I heard that she is your little granddaughter. Could it be that you Aren’t you worried about her safety?”
Minna looked at him inexplicably. With grandpa here, could he still hurt himself? What's more, she's not a little brat without skills!
Xiao Tianjian thought this was a joke: "Do you think you can take the child away from me?"
But the fat black man was confident: "There's no need to take her away, Earl Xiao, your granddaughter has been poisoned now. Look at the time, it's almost time for her attack."
Xiao Tianjian's expression changed, and he turned to look at his granddaughter. Ming Na was also shocked, and then she felt a heat rising in her stomach. It gradually became hotter and hotter, as if it was about to catch fire, twisting her internal organs. They were all crushed into a ball of pain. She couldn't help but grab her grandfather's clothes: "My stomach hurts, Grandpa..." How could this happen? !
Xiao Tianjian was shocked and angry. He raised his head and glared at the fat black man. He accidentally spotted a figure hiding in the crowd: "Freedo! Did you do it?!"
Ming Na quickly raised her head and saw in disbelief that her new friend was trying to hide behind, but was pulled out by the fat black man in three steps at a time: "Tell Earl Xiao and the young lady, what are you doing in those places?" What’s in the food?”
Frido's face was pale and his eyes flickered, but there was an unnatural smile on his face: "I put the poison given by the boss in the milk tea and scones. This poison will not be fatal in a short time, but it will be very serious." It hurts. I have medicine here that can delay the onset of the poison. As long as you take the antidote within ten days, you will be fine. And the antidote...is at the boss's place..."
"Frido...why are you...aren't we friends?" Mingna burst into tears in pain, but she felt uncomfortable in her heart. After getting along for a few days, they have been very harmonious. Frido also told her many interesting things. She thought that this would be considered as making friends, but she never expected that Frido would actually poison her. !
Before Frido could say anything, the fat man pushed him aside and said to Xiao Tianjian: "Earl Xiao, you are a smart man, you should know what to do, right? Only our boss knows where the antidote is. I advise you to agree quickly, otherwise, your lovely little granddaughter will have to say goodbye to you forever." He laughed out loud, which was very harsh.
Xiao Tianjian's eyes were cold, and he would never forgive him for murdering a child!
With a bang, he threw the potion box in front of his granddaughter and whispered: "Find the antidote yourself and drink it!" Sennett's antidote can cure hundreds of poisons, and even if it cannot eradicate it, it can greatly alleviate the effects of the poison.
Ming Na resisted the pain and hugged the box, opened it and looked for it. But the pain in her abdomen became more and more intense, and she could hardly stand up straight. The tears in her eyes blurred her vision, making the search even more difficult. She could only keep wiping her tears with her sleeves while searching for traces of unused antidotes among the piles of bottles and cans.
At this time, Xiao Tianjian was already holding the long sword in his hand tightly and sending out bursts of murderous intent. Seeing that the situation was not going well, the fat black man hurriedly said: "You... don't mess around! There are a hundred of us here! And there are more people coming. There are our brothers in the whole town, you can't escape! "
"Then give it a try!" Xiao Tianjian squeezed out this sentence through his teeth, and his figure disappeared in front of everyone. When he returned to the place the next second, several people had fallen under his sword. When the fat black man saw that he was ruthless, he shouted "Go", and everyone immediately surrounded him.
Ming Na only knew that there were many people fighting around her, and blood spattered on her body from time to time, but she didn't care about it anymore. There was already a fishy smell in her mouth. Holding back the severe pain, she finally found the antidote, opened the lid with trembling hands and poured it into her mouth. Suddenly, a chill went straight into her cavity, which greatly reduced the pain in her abdomen.
Suddenly, a black shadow flew over and fell in front of her, crushing most of the potion in the box. When she saw that it was a dead man with a hideous face, she was so frightened that she screamed. She raised her eyes and scanned her surroundings, which was already a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
