Viscount Silva sat on the horse triumphantly, and thanks to the tall and strong Zenoma, he was able to support his weight twice that of ordinary people.
Two guards in silver armor walked in front holding a banner with a golden cup painted on it, which was the family crest of Viscount Silva. Below the golden cup was a purple vine, which formed a shield-shaped circle around the golden cup. , the top of the vine is full of white seven-petal flowers. Little Duran, this is the national flower of the Trimble Kingdom, and the appearance of Little Duran on the noble badge means that there is a close relationship with the Trimble royal family, which is a sign of royal relatives.
The guards at the west city gate, under the command of their squad leader, are lining up to welcome the passage of Viscount Silva and his party. Judging from where they are going, they should be going to the Feihong Winery, which is more than 30 miles away from the city. It was a very famous manor under the name of Viscount Silva. Its wines had a century-old reputation, and it was also one of the sources of wealth for Viscount Silva.
Viscount Silva was in a good mood. Watching the carriage carrying the sad-faced Mancheni technicians pass through the city gate, he couldn't help but open his mouth, hehe, so what if you are a technician in a glass production base, you can run away! Out of the hands of the Viscount? I thought it would be fine to hide in the glass production base, but this Viscount couldn't get in, but he was able to drive your family out and let you send your daughter here obediently.
Last night, in the face of those vicious subordinates sent by Viscount Silva to force the marriage, the stubborn Mancheni finally bowed his head and agreed to Viscount Silva's request to marry his daughter as a concubine. But he also put forward three conditions, one is that Viscount Silva will treat his daughter well in the future, the other is to give a generous dowry, and the third is to hold the wedding quietly, preferably not in the city. Because Technician Mancheni felt that it would be a disgrace to marry his daughter to Viscount Silva as a concubine. If Viscount Silva brought people to greet him with great fanfare, the couple would feel ashamed among the neighbors and would never be able to lift them up again. start.
These three conditions are extremely reasonable. Although the third condition makes Viscount Silva very unhappy, he is not stupid. He knows that his reputation is not very good. Apart from like-minded dandies, there are also no serious nobles who will come to participate. Let's arrange the location at my own Feihong winery, which is my stronghold for fun outside the royal city, quiet and remote.
It took more than two hours for Viscount Silva to arrive with a dozen guards and his cronies on horseback after a journey of more than 30 miles. The door of Feihong Winery was open, and Viscount Silva didn't care. , drove the horse and led the people until the door of the main building hall before dismounting.
Usually at this time, there should be many servants running over to serve attentively, those who lead horses, those who bring water, those who deliver towels, those who deliver tea, and circle around Viscount Silva... But this meeting has been going on for a long time, or Not a single person.
Viscount Silva was furious: "What about people, where are they all dead? Why is there no one? You two, go and see where those lazybones have gone?"
The two guards agreed, ran to the hall, opened the door, and were stunned. It took a long time to come back to his senses: "My lord, come and see, they are all here..."
"They're still there and don't tell them to get out!" Viscount Silva cursed and walked towards the hall. As soon as he reached the entrance of the hall, a strong smell of alcohol came to his nostrils, almost knocking the viscount to the ground.
Looking into the hall, Viscount Silva was also dumbfounded. The hall was full of people, probably all the servants of Feihong Winery were here. It's just that these people are all drunk now, there are empty oak barrels on the table on the ground, and even several large wine barrels are still dripping red wine...
"Hahaha..." Those dudes who accompanied Viscount Silva to Feihong Manor to celebrate his marriage to the twenty-sixth concubine crowded in front of the hall, seeing the scene, they all laughed and couldn't close Mouth.
"Sylva, it's ridiculous. It turns out that your servants are throwing parties when you're not in the winery, and they're all drunk. If you didn't suddenly decide to hold a wedding at the winery yesterday, you wouldn't have sent Someone came to inform us, if we only found out today, then we have been concealed and deceived by these servants all the time, it seems that in the future we will also conduct a surprise attack on the manor and castle where our family is away, to see if we have been deceived by those lowly slaves Deception..." A greasy young nobleman said with a smile while thinking.
"It's unreasonable!" Viscount Silva was so angry that he was going to become a joke in the aristocratic circle of the capital again. The behavior of the servants of the winery to hold a party behind his back was simply rebellious: "I want these dog slaves hang them all..."
Viscount Silva yelled, lashing the servants on the ground with the whip in his hand, but unfortunately, these servants were all drunk to death, and had no other reaction to the whip that fell on them except humming twice. After beating Viscount Silva more than ten times, he lost his strength. His fat body couldn't hold on to such violent movements, and he began to gasp for breath.
Raising his head, Viscount Silva saw that in the innermost part of the hall, on the luxury chair entwined with gold threads exclusively for him, the head of the winery was sleeping soundly like mud with a large wine barrel in his arms.
Viscount Silva was furious: "Pull that dog slave down for me! He, how dare he sit on my chair..."
The two guards walked towards the manager of the winery aggressively. At this time, the guards brought by Viscount Silva and his friends had already crowded into the hall, and even the two silver swordsmen who were monitoring Mancheni's technicians also crowded in. Come and watch the fun with your mouth open...
The two doors were suddenly closed silently, and the hall was completely dark...
"Who, who closed the door, don't open it!" Viscount Silva roared angrily.
The two people who were closest to the gate stretched out their hands to push the gate open, but they struggled for a long time, but finally had no choice: "It seems that someone has locked the gate..."
"Who, who made such a joke..." There was a mess in the hall.
"Light the candle first, who brought the flint and steel?" someone shouted.
"Clank clank..." There was a sound of drawing swords, and the white lights on the five swords lit up. These were Viscount Silva's three silver guards and the two silver swordsmen monitoring Mancheni's technician. However, the sword light is not used for lighting, but it can finally see the faint figure.
With a sound of "嗤啦", a ball of flames lit up in the innermost part of the hall, and then "嗤嗤" sounded endlessly, and the flames in mid-air were connected into a line, criss-crossing in the hall, weaving into a net. The hanging chandeliers and the candles on the vertical candlesticks were lit one after another, and the hall was instantly brightened.
Everyone was dumbfounded, the scene in front of them was too unreal, just like the legendary magic.
"Respected Viscount Silva, and distinguished guests, I would like to extend a warm welcome to you..." A hoarse voice resounded in the hall, and only then did everyone discover the voice of Viscount Silva The person on the throne changed at some point, and the head of the winery lying on it had rolled to the ground. On the special chair was a man in black clothes, black trousers and black leather shoes. He covered his head with a black cloth and wore Black eyepatch, only revealing the face below half of the nose.
But when he laughed, his white teeth were dazzling under the candlelight. At this moment, the man in black was just leaning on the chair so lazily and without any image of sitting, looking at Viscount Silva with a half-smile This group of people.
"You, you, who are you?" Viscount Silva pointed to the man in black and asked in a panic.
"For me, you can call me Zoro." The man in black said nonchalantly, "I just heard that Viscount Silva of the Trimble Kingdom has always been compassionate, generous, wealthy, and spends a lot of money. He didn't change his face. He has admired his name for a long time, so he came here to pay a special visit. By the way, he helped Lord Viscount spend some money. I think Lord Viscount shouldn't mind..."
Viscount Silva was very happy, it turned out that he was so famous, he cracked his mouth and said happily: "Okay, okay, I don't mind..."
Then he was kicked, and a noble friend next to him was glaring at him: "Idiot, can't you hear the irony, he wants to steal our money! He is a robber!"
Now Viscount Silva understood, turned into anger from embarrassment, and waved his hand: "Grab him, I will hang him!"
The two guards who were going to arrest the manager of the winery just now were the closest to the man in black, and they drew their swords and rushed towards him. The figure of the man in black flashed twice on the chair, and the two guards fell to the ground without a sound.
"Go, you all go!" Viscount Silva roared, and then watched his three silver guards rushing up with a dozen black iron and bronze guards, and quickly lay on the ground unconscious...
This was so weird. The man in black who claimed to be Zorro was unarmed, and his figure flashed a few times among the guards rushing past. All the guards fell to the ground. With the flames and the fire net that instantly lit up all the candles, a pale nobleman finally called out: "He, he is a magician..."
The sound of water droplets sounded, it was a few timid nobles who wet their pants.
Legend has it that magicians are hard-hearted people who kill people without batting an eyelid. They are used to experimenting with people, skinning people, picking out bones to form human figures and reviving them... You don’t read the popular knight novels on the market. The descriptions are all heroic Is it the story of a knight rescuing a beautiful princess from an evil magician or a dragon
Viscount Silva's lower body was also wet, and he also peed. He knew that he was neither a heroic knight nor a beautiful princess, but he might become a model specimen for magicians to vent their anger.
Sure enough, the man in black named Zorro laughed strangely: "You guys are very naughty, it seems that I have to put a mark on you."
Zoro walked over swaggeringly, and more than half of the remaining 20 or so people were paralyzed on the ground, and those who were still standing were trembling...
Suddenly, two sword lights lit up. It was the two silver swordsmen who were monitoring Mancheni's technicians. The man in black seemed to be stunned, watching the two silver swordsmen pass by him.
"Great, I'm saved, uh..." The nobles who saw this scene seemed to see the man in black named Zorro cut into four pieces by two swords. They just let out a cry of surprise, but the scene in front of them made them fall into a trap again. despaired.
The man in black named Zoro was still standing there, but the two silver swordsmen passing by him fell to the ground and remained motionless.
"Hehe, are you happy?" Zoro let out a hoarse laugh: "Give them all to me!"
At this time, the nobles found that there were six big men who were also dressed in black but wearing white skull masks. They were silent but extremely powerful. His clothes were torn to pieces. Then grab his arms and bring him to the man in black named Zoro.
Zoro showed an evil smile at the corner of his mouth. He stretched out a finger, with a flash of cold light, and swiped it in front of the naked nobleman. A bloody "Z" symbol appeared on the naked nobleman's chest. This The naked noble who was marked immediately passed out from the pain.
A day and a night passed, and the drunk people lying on the floor of the lobby finally woke up. Although they still had headaches, this was just a basic reaction after getting drunk, and they would recover as long as they drank more water.
The manager of the winery shook his head, still feeling like he was dreaming. The winery was invaded by a group of vicious gangsters, but these gangsters didn't want money or sex, they just forced everyone to drink, and those who refused to drink just beat them up Next, I used wine barrels to fill him with wine. In the end, everyone was drunk, and even those who were drunk were caught and continued to drink for a long time. Anyway, Feihong Winery has plenty of wine, and they are all good wine. The manager is strong and unyielding. But still can't escape the end of being drunk...
Are there such bandits in the world? The steward held his head and thought about it for a long time, until a servant of the winery rushed over and pulled him out, and dragged him out of the hall. Only then did the steward find that the viscount's mount, carriage, etc. were parked in the courtyard...
Where is the viscount? After searching all the rooms in the winery, Sir Viscount Silva and his guards are still missing.
Impossible, Lord Viscount must be in the manor, he is so fat, it is impossible to leave the winery on foot, and it is not sick to have a horse to travel without using it, look for it! The general manager lost his temper. He always felt that those gangsters must have some kind of conspiracy to get him and his servants drunk, and they were targeting the viscount...
Finally, in the deepest wine cellar underground of the winery, the whereabouts of Viscount Silva and his party were finally discovered. The servants took Silva, who was half frozen to death from the wine cellar, and hugged him naked for warmth. Viscount Va and his friends and guards were rescued.
In fact, Viscount Silva and his friends and guards have long since woke up. When they found themselves trapped in the wine cellar, they called for help for a day, but they were trapped in the deepest wine cellar underground. A lot of sundries were piled up on the floor, not to mention that the sound could not be transmitted, even if it could be transmitted, it would be useless. The servants of the winery were all lying in the lobby and passed away drunk.
In the middle of the night, everyone was hoarse. They were cold and hungry and had to hug each other to keep warm. The weather in November was even colder and colder in the middle of the night, especially underground. There were so many sundries that felt strange, but after moving it away, it was discovered that Lord Viscount and others were trapped inside. Maybe Viscount Silva and the others would really freeze to death without anyone knowing.
Soon, a large number of royal guards arrived at Feihong Winery, and the story of Viscount Silva quickly spread throughout the entire capital. The magician named Zorro, the skeleton soldiers summoned by him, and all There are countless mysteries about the mysterious "Z" mark shed on people's bodies...
But the head of the winery and the servants all complained in unison that it was just a group of vicious gangsters who liked to pour alcohol on people. There must be six or seven of them...
After two days of busy work, the two silver swordsmen whose jaws were crushed and unable to speak finally reminded people of what they had forgotten. The family of three technicians from Mancheni disappeared. This is a technician who has mastered all glass production technologies. Things finally went wrong. big...
"Why can this technician named Mancheni leave the capital?" King Trimble VII of the Trimble Kingdom asked the Minister of Security of the Royal Capital standing in front of him with a sullen face.
That's right, as glass technicians, while enjoying generous remuneration, they also lose their personal freedom. They have no right to go to other places except the capital and the glass production base. Otherwise the Kingdom of Trimble could not have kept the secret of glass production for nearly two hundred years.
So, everything was truly presented in front of the king...
"Hang Viscount Silva on the square in front of the palace! The guards at the west city gate also hanged me in front of the city gate. They forgot to interrogate them, which is the greatest crime! As for the two silver guards who were in charge of monitoring Swordsman, the whole family was hacked by me, and they even forgot their duty! Protecting the glass technicians is also their mission, and they can kill the technicians only when it is necessary to preserve the secrets of the kingdom's glass production! It's not just about ordinary monitoring!
Also, I cut off all those in charge of the production base who received the gold coins from Viscount Silva. They even dared to drive out the technicians who had mastered the glass production technology from the base. They have the audacity to send glass technicians to other countries...
The magicians and skeleton soldiers are all deceptive tricks. Their real goal is the Mancheni family! Don't let the nobles involved in this incident go unnoticed. Those who should be held accountable should be investigated to the end. Send someone to investigate carefully. Who planned this conspiracy! No matter which family or kingdom it is, as long as there are clues, I don't mind dispatching all the great sword masters of the kingdom to keep the secret of glass production! "
Trimble VII was furious, and a bloody storm broke out in the Trimble Kingdom...
