Roddy's face was burning with pain, and he looked at old Mark in front of him with horrified eyes.
what happened
How dare he hit himself? And... he actually hit it
In fact, as soon as Old Mark raised his hand, Roddy subconsciously turned his head to avoid it. You must know that he is already a powerful warrior. How can ordinary people hit him
But this slap actually landed on his face, and apart from seeing his hand move, he didn't actually see his movements clearly
Rody subconsciously took a step back, but knocked down the chair behind him.
"you… "
The expression on Mark's face was indifferent, and he said calmly: "I'm not beating you because of what you just did to the lady, but because... you shouldn't make her so sad tonight! You shouldn't bring up her sad things, you shouldn't It’s time to get angry with her! Boy! She’s been miserable enough!”
"What?" Rody covered his face and was stunned.
"Okay! Don't look stupid! Boy!" Mark said calmly: "I know your identity. You are not Master Seth, you are Roddy, a student of the Imperial Academy!"
"Ah!" Rody took a step back again, but his feet stumbled on the chair that fell on the ground. He staggered a few steps before he could stand still.
"Idiot!" The expression on Mark's face was not as respectful as usual, and his tone was cold: "Let me tell you! This matter was arranged by me! Otherwise, do you think you were alone that night? A young boy who can sneak into the Tulip family quietly? Do you really think that all the family guards are freeloaders? If it weren't for me, you would have been caught when you climbed over the fence!"
The shock in Rody's heart at this moment could no longer be described in words. He was almost dumbfounded and could only stare blankly at the enigmatic old coachman in front of him.
"Let me tell you! Boy!" Mark bent down, lifted up the chair on the ground, and then sat down carelessly, with a deep smile on his face: "Let me introduce myself first, my name is... Anyway, I have forgotten how many years have passed. Just call me Mark. What is my profession? Haha, I am a groom! But after all, I should be the fourth generation disciple of the Dandong sage."
"Dandong?" Rody felt more and more that his brain was running out.
"Shut up and listen to me!" Old Mark seemed dissatisfied with Roddy's interruption and continued: "The development of the matter actually has nothing to do with me. I just pushed it a little by coincidence. ... That night, I had noticed you hiding behind the tree, at first... Humph, I thought you were a coward and didn't pay attention to you, but then I found out that you actually had the guts to follow our car... Humph , and then actually wanted to sneak into our house, then I couldn't ignore it. I really want to know who is so bold and dares to attack the Tulip family! So, I used some tricks to let you in, I want to see what you want to do..."
"But what happened next surprised me. You were just a group of thugs who attacked the wrong target. I lost interest in you. But what you did in the stable that night, I But I’ve always seen it!”
"Wait!" Rody suddenly said: "Are you there too? Were you there that night?"
Old Mark rolled his eyes: "Of course I'm here!"
"Then why didn't you attack me?"
"Attached?" A meaningful smile appeared on Old Mark's face: "Attached to you? Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of me? But you actually dared to do that to the lady that night... I couldn't stand it at first, but Later, the young master showed up... Frankly speaking, I really didn't expect that child to actually have that kind of courage and dare to run away... Well, it's far away... But since the young master has taken care of you, I don't need to take action. "
"What happened next is much simpler. The young master left, and the young lady had no choice but to capture you as a substitute. I saw it all. But I don't bother to care about this kind of thing. It's not like that anyway. The scope of my responsibilities, let the lady do whatever she likes."
"..." Rody still couldn't say a single word.
"Is it weird? Don't you know who I am?" Old Mark smiled: "I just told you that I am a disciple of Mr. Dandong... Speaking of which, our lineage has always been with the Tulip family. . My duty is to protect the safety of the descendants of the Tulip family."
"..." Rody finally couldn't help but ask: "But why didn't you stop Seth from leaving that day?"
"Why do you want to stop him?" Old Mark stared back and asked: "Set doesn't like to be a duke. That's his choice. Why should I stop him? Since it's something he doesn't like, don't force him to do it. , let him do what he likes!”
"But..." Rody didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "But you said you were protecting..."
"I protect their people, not the glory of some bullshit family. What does the glory of the Tulip family have to do with me? I see the young lady frowning and unhappy every day... Humph, what kind of family is this? It has been separated long ago. Okay!" the old guy suddenly said angrily. Then he himself felt that this sentence seemed a bit too much, he sighed and said slowly: "Let me make it clear, my duty is only to protect people's safety. If someone wants to harm the young lady or the young master, then I am bound to do it." "It's absolutely not allowed, but the responsibility of this family has nothing to do with me, do you understand?"
What is this responsibility? Dandong's disciple and successor? Didn’t Dandong have a close relationship with the Tulip family? Are you looking at the decline of the family and ignoring it
"I know you don't understand, and I don't quite understand either, but...my duty is indeed like this...boy." Mark narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "That's all I said, I don't care what you are. As for the counterfeit, you do your thing and I will fulfill my duties, but you are not allowed to hurt the lady. Do you understand? Sigh... If you hadn't made the lady sad tonight, I wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to you... "
After saying this, Mark stood up and seemed ready to leave. Rody's heart moved, and he mustered up the courage to say loudly: "Wait a minute!"
There were so many things that he didn't understand, and the man in front of him was probably the only person who could solve the mystery in his heart, so he had to bravely call him out.
"Mark... I really don't understand. You said you are Dandong's disciple, but you... Dandong has been dead for more than two hundred years... you..."
"Oh..." Mark didn't seem to care: "What's this? Do you think Dandong's disciples die so easily? I tell you, as long as I want, I can live for a thousand years without any problem. I followed the descendants of the Tulip family Over the past few generations, have you ever heard of a descendant of a family who was killed by someone? What about an imperial marshal, an invincible commander... Don’t you think, you idiot, that most of the famous generals in the world died in the end? On the battlefield? Why didn’t any of the descendants of the Tulip family die on the battlefield?”
A terrifying and curious thought arose in Rody's heart: "You... how did you do it?"
"Hmph... My first body has been dead for two hundred years, but I can just find someone's body, kill him, and then live in the body. Let me think about it... I was the ninth Duke His lord's adjutant, he was the servant of my 11th Duke, and the personal bodyguard of my twelfth Duke... Hum, as for this body, I only found one after my last body died of old age decades ago. The body of a young man who has just joined the family as a servant."
Roddy had a big mouth and his eyes almost popped out!
eternal life! ! !
This guy can actually possess a soul! Then stay immortal! ! !
Dandong! It’s Dandong again! How many miracles has he created? ?
First, a life is created, and then a space is created!
Now, one of his disciples can actually keep his soul immortal!
This once again subverts the power of God! !
