The Roden family is not a powerful aristocratic family. Although it has a history of more than two hundred years, there is still a big gap compared with the real big family.
Yiwen is very aware of how capable her family is. What she yearns for the most is to become a strong man, marry a strong man, and then rejuvenate a family with him.
She was very optimistic about Joshua at first. When Joshua became a professional, she was still an ordinary person. At that time, she admired Joshua very much, and thought he was a very powerful professional.
It's a pity that she also became a professional next, and she is still a very rare magic swordsman, but Joshua is still the same, and has not become stronger at all.
Yiwen also advised Joshua to strengthen himself and exercise hard, but Joshua didn't take it to heart, he preferred to play and socialize around.
Gradually, Yiwen's strength surpassed that of Joshua, and she gradually became disappointed in Joshua.
In many social occasions, when other nobles found that Yiwen was more powerful, they began to secretly laugh at Joshua, and her reputation was also affected. That is, from then on, Yiwen felt that she was Joshua's fiancée, It's already an insult.
Not long after that, there was the curse incident at Tao Te's quarry, and she took this opportunity to break off the engagement with Joshua.
In Yiwen's mind, the Taut family must have no chance to stand up again, but she didn't expect that not only the abscess on Joshua and his maid was healed, but also seems to have avoided the disaster of the elves destroying the city.
The Taut family has a small quarry, and now the whole city is being rebuilt, and she can imagine how much money she can make from it with just one move.
She originally wanted to give Joshua a face, after all, the two families used to have friendship. So I asked the housekeeper to come over and have a good talk with him, but unexpectedly, I only got one word: Get out!
Yiwen was already angry when he heard the steward's return. The reason why it took so many days to come here is because I was entangled in some trivial matters.
She is here today. Seeing that Julie's appearance has almost recovered, she hated her. She used to dislike Julie. If it hadn't been for the fact that the Taot family was on par with hers back then, she would have already ruined Julie's appearance.
Then the Taot family was defeated, and Julie turned into a monster covered in abscesses, and she didn't bother to care.
Compared with Julie's appearance, Yiwen actually hated Joshua even more for daring to confront her with a sword.
For a maid. For Yi Wen, it was just adding fuel to the flames.
So she vented all her anger on Joshua, hitting her former fiancé's self-esteem like an enemy.
But Yiwen didn't expect that in this remote place, there were actually powerful professionals passing by, and they seemed to know Joshua.
Two beautiful girls, and a heroic boy.
Yiwen is a very talented magic swordsman, she can feel that the three people in front of her are quite strong. The two of them were on par with her, and the unbelievably beautiful flat girl was much better than her. a lot of.
The three surrounded their Roden family members.
Although there were more people in the Roden family, and Yiwen brought more than twenty people out, she understood that in front of these three professionals, these twenty-odd private soldiers were no different from more than twenty babies.
"Who are you?" Yiwen said, "I am Yiwen from the Rawden family. I have some private matters to deal with with Joshua. Please forgive me if I offend you."
Yiwen had to give in, she felt that a woman like herself would one day become a master. Wings should not be broken in such a place, for the sake of the future. It is not embarrassing to bow your head to the enemy occasionally.
Kyle said with an unhappy face: "Joshua is our friend. Since you have done something to him, don't leave in a hurry. Think carefully about how to apologize to him."
Joshua put the long sword on the ground and propped up his body vigorously.
One piece of his face was red and the other was blue, which showed how badly he was beaten by Yiwen. However, he didn't have much anger on his face at this time, but he occasionally looked at Yiwen's eyes with a little more chill.
Ivan took a breath, and she looked at Kyle: "Your Excellencies, how much Joshua spent to hire you, I will pay double the price."
"As I said just now, we are his friends." Kyle now found himself hating the woman in front of him more and more.
Yiwen naturally didn't believe it. The Taut family had fallen to such a degree now, not to mention power, they didn't even have much money, how could there be such a magical creature as a 'friend'.
"If double is not enough, triple it."
Seeing that the three did not respond, Yiwen continued, "Four times!"
At this time, Joshua laughed loudly: "Yiwen, don't lose face here. Indeed, I can't beat you, but it's only now. You are still the same, always thinking that this world is a relationship between people. Apart from power and money, there will be no other feelings, so you are very pitiful, much more pitiful than me."
Yiwen looked back at Joshua and sneered, "You have nothing now, yet you say I'm pitiful?"
"I have Julie, she will never leave my side even if she dies." Joshua pointed to Kyle and the three: "I still have friends, and a teacher who is cold on the surface but actually treats me very well , What do you have? Besides money, do you have a real friend, or a relative who can think about you?"
Yiwen's mind was hurt by the poking, she wished to kill Joshua, but the three powerful professionals in front of her were staring at her, she did not dare to act rashly.
"Hmph, you are lucky this time, I don't believe you will be so lucky again and again in the future." Yiwen waved his hand, and shouted angrily at his subordinates: "Go!"
Kyle stood in front of her, imitating Liang Li's plain expression, and said, "We didn't say we would let you go, you haven't apologized yet!"
"Impossible!" Yiwen looked back at Joshua: "Joshua, fight me if you have the ability, relying on other people's ability, are you still a man?"
"let her go!"
Liang Lidong's voice suddenly appeared, and he just came back at this time: "Joshua, this woman is right, you have lost her and been humiliated by her, and you will work hard to regain your dignity in the future. If we help you, you will You will never lift your head up in front of her."
Joshua heard Liang Lidong speak like this. He thought it made sense, and then he turned to Yiwen. With a bit of grimness, he said: "The teacher is right, half a year, half a year later, I will go to you, I hope you can still laugh at that time."
Yiwen looked at Liang Lidong, looked at his red magic robe, and heard Joshua call him teacher, his heart was already cold. She knew that she would never escape this time, but she never thought that the other party would let her leave.
So I took people away as soon as I walked, and I didn't dare to stay any longer. On the way home, she couldn't help but sneer when she thought of Joshua's gritted teeth just now, and his half-year agreement.
There is a huge gap in strength between the two of them, and it's a dream to catch up in half a year.
Yiwen thought so, but didn't know why. But she felt a faint chill running back and forth in her heart, which made her feel a faint, inexplicable uneasiness.
Joshua was praised very badly. But he has already comprehended the heart of the earth element, and he has not been really hurt. Skin trauma is nothing to professionals.
Joshua was greatly stimulated by the bullying from his former fiancée this time. He began to work harder on his own strength, and even practiced with Kyle every day. In fact, he was beaten up by Kyle, and he never yelled. pain.
A few days later, someone brought Liang Lidong a message. It is said that he is an old cobbler in Dirty Water Lane, Xicheng, and some time ago, he had contact with some people whose backgrounds he did not understand.
Liang Lidong gave the other party ten gold coins. Then they rushed over with Kyle.
Dirtywater Lane is a slum where dirty water flows. Feces and urine fly together, hence the name.
Liang Lidong used magic elements to filter the air around him, so he didn't feel anything, but Kyle didn't have such a pure magic power control ability, he covered his nose with a handkerchief all the way, even so, he still couldn't bear the smell.
The old cobbler was called Macy, and he used to be the male owner of a well-to-do family, but he became addicted to gambling when he was middle-aged. Not only did he lose his family, but he also lost his wife and children.
After having nothing, the old cobbler was reduced to living in Dirty Water Alley.
With his previous skills, he would not die of hunger. If he worked hard to make money, it would not be difficult for him to leave Dirty Water Alley, but he would gamble whenever he had money, so he has stayed in Dirty Water Alley for more than 20 years.
His residence was a mud-brick thatched house. The door was a stinky ditch with yellow-black excrement floating in it, as well as objects that looked like human limbs.
No matter which city, slums are always the dirtiest and most dangerous places. People here will do anything for food.
If ordinary nobles or ordinary civilians came to the slums alone, they would never disappear for more than half an hour. Such people were fat sheep to the people in the slums.
However, Liang Lidong and Kyle traveled unimpeded all the way, and no one dared to think of them. After all, no matter how many ordinary people there are, they are no match for professionals.
Nikua's thatched house has no door, only a dirty black linen curtain, Liang Lidong used his mental strength to make the curtain roll up by itself, and then walked into the house.
The dark room was empty, except for a bed, a dirty quilt, and a dirty plate, there was nothing else.
An old man was sleeping on the bed, his complexion was very bad, but there were some signs of rosiness on his forehead.
This is a sign that people who have not eaten well for many years will suddenly have enough food and sleep warmly. It is a sign of physical improvement.
Liang Lidong hit the old man in the face with a water polo.
He jumped out of bed like his ass was on fire, scared like a mouse caught by a cat.
The old cobbler Macy looked at Liang Lidong and Kyle in horror. He didn't understand why two professionals broke into his home.
"Messi!" Liang Lidong looked at him and asked slowly: "I heard that you had contact with some unknown people some time ago, what did they ask you to do?"
The old cobbler rolled his eyes and said, "Your Excellencies, I really have never come into contact with any unknown people. Did you understand something?"
"It doesn't matter if you misunderstand or not." Liang Lidong smiled and said, "I advise you to tell the truth in the end. I am a spellcaster. I can tear people's souls out of their bodies and watch your memories directly."
The old cobbler shuddered. As an ordinary person, the threat of the caster was too great. No matter what kind of legend, the caster has the ability to make people feel scary and weird.
"After reading the memory, I can put your soul back into the body." Liang Lidong smiled with evil spirits in his gentle smile: "But my craftsmanship is not very good, and the soul you put back may be damaged. It’s easy to become a fool, lying on the ground and eating shit like a dog every day!”
The old cobbler was so frightened that his shit was about to come out. He knelt down on the ground, howled, and begged the two adults not to play with his soul, while pouring out everything.
It turned out that five days ago, three men in black with machetes came to him and asked him to help make three strange leather armors.
Although the old cobbler loves to gamble, his craftsmanship is worth mentioning. After receiving the material from the man in black, he knew immediately that it was human skin... and the three pieces of leather were very smooth and soft, obviously a woman's skin.
At that time, the old cobbler who was starving to death didn't care what the source of the materials was. He made three small leather armors according to the request of the man in black. Those three pieces of leather armor have no defensive ability at all, but if they are worn on the body, they are similar to their own skin.
Three days ago, the old cobbler delivered the goods on time, and the other party gave him three gold coins before disappearing.
The old cobbler only knew this, and after he finished speaking, he cried and begged the two adults not to kill him.
Coming out of the old cobbler's house, Kyle's face was pale, and he wanted to vomit. He never thought that someone would use a woman's skin to make leather armor.
Liang Lidong turned his head and glanced at him, and then said: "Those three skins should not belong to human women, but should belong to elf women. I have heard of this kind of thing before. After the skin of elf women is peeled off, if you use If it is preserved by a special method, it will never age and deform. Many perverted noble old women like to live in the outer skin of armored elf women, and they believe that if this is the case, they will never age.”
"But the skin of human women doesn't have such ability." Liang Lidong clicked his tongue: "It seems that there is a very insane slave-hunting organization in the city of Sicily. Yacheng was destroyed."
"Teacher, what should we do next?" Kyle wiped the corner of his mouth, and his yellow bile almost came out just now.
Liang Lidong sneered twice: "Since it's a man in black with a scimitar, it must have something to do with the desert kingdom. There are seven chambers of commerce in the desert kingdom in Sicilia. Let's check one by one. If you don't believe me, check it out. Come out." (.)
