078 It's like seeing you for the first time

The middle-aged fat man Gavin is one of the local snakes in Dongfeng City. Although his control over the city is definitely not as good as that of the city lord Uther, he is still a pioneer sent by the Hibiscus family and attaches great importance to intelligence. Even if the work of casting an information net is not as good as the city lord of the Killer Union, it is not strange that he occasionally masters some special and small details.

When he saw Liang Lidong, he became interested, and said, "But that place is a bit sensitive and is an important place in my tribe. You cannot go there alone, you must take you there... Of course, if you take some informal means, I will be helpless."

Under normal circumstances, Liang Lidong could really use his ability to secretly check it out. After all, some sensitive places are generally not open to outsiders. But when the middle-aged fat man said this, Liang Lidong could only say: "Then please take me over and take a look. After all, now the Necromancer knows that we are looking for him, so it is hard to guarantee that he will not make any exaggerated actions, so it is not appropriate to go back."

The middle-aged fat man smiled slightly: "Then there is no problem. I will go back and I can just take my relatives over. Although my clan guards are not bad, I can't protect them in a foolproof way under the gaze of the assassin. But I have something I hope you can agree to."

"Please say it."

"That place is a relatively important place for our tribe." The middle-aged fat man had a gentle smile on his round white face: "So if you see something strange later, please don't care or spread it. OK?"

"Of course." Liang Lidong nodded.

The middle-aged fat man Gavin breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you then."

On the surface, the middle-aged fat man was asking Liang Lidong for "requesting" him, but in fact, the latter understood that he owed the fat man a favor. People who are good at socializing can convey their meanings invisibly without any trace, and it will not be annoying. The fat man said that it was a very important place in his family, and Liang Lidong still had to go there. If the other party agreed, then this is a favor.

Some people give favors very "straight", and although the person who receives favors has accepted favors, they are somewhat resistant to them. But this fat man is different. His favors are very "tender", and the person who receives favors will be very comfortable regardless of whether he is willing to accept love. Many people with ability do not respect "socialization", but in fact, the essence of social interaction is an art of speaking. If the social connection is well managed, you can avoid many detours when doing many things.

It is not without reason or consideration that the Hibiscus flower family sent this fat man out as a pioneer member.

After the matter was decided, the fat man led Liang Lidong and drove out of the castle in a carriage. Although the atmosphere in Liang Lidong is very tense at present, not only is there a great enemy of the Temple of Life, but also a necromancer lies dormant. It is not too difficult to make a big mistake, and it is very likely that the whole thing will be lost. But for ordinary people, life is no different from the past. The open and secret struggle between the Temple of Life and the City Lord's Mansion is just their private gossip. As for the matter of the Necromancer, they cannot know. As long as people with some common sense understand, once this matter is spread, it will cause a great shock to the security and stability of Dongfeng City.

People on the street are still coming and going, shouting business and bargaining. Fatty Gavin lifts the car window, sticks his head out, and looks at the lively street scene outside. He says in a calm voice: "Sometimes I also envy these ordinary people. At least they don't have to think too much about things. As long as they don't challenge authority, as long as they think about how to fill their stomachs, they can live a peaceful life without much pressure. Unlike us, we won't talk about open and secret struggles between nobles, and sometimes we have to consider the overall situation. Living under such pressure every day is really hard?"

Liang Lidong looked at the other party: "Why did you suddenly tell me this?"

The fat man put down the curtains of the car, sat upright and said, "I guess Mr. Beta doesn't like a nobleman's seemingly decadent but stressful life, so he has become an ascetic believer."

"I'm not a noble..." Liang Lidong thought for a while before saying, "At least it's not a noble like you."

The fat man smiled: "I know that I am different from us decadent nobles. You should have your own pursuit. In fact, I also want to leave everything in the family like you and become a free mercenary, or believers in the gods. But it is impossible. I was born in the Hibiscus family, and the family is very good to us. Since I have enjoyed the care, I have the obligation to contribute to the family. I plan to consider this matter after I have made some achievements."

This nobleman is not that nobleman, and Fatty Gavin misunderstood something very subtly, but Liang Lidong didn't intend to explain it. He said: "If I remember correctly, the Hibiscus family should have a clan system. It is not like other noble families, the clan leader completely decides all the family affairs."

"Yes." The fat man nodded. The characteristics of the Hibiscus flower family are completely different from other nobles. Anyone who knows a little about them will have heard of this clan system: "Although it is a disadvantage of the clan system that is a bit slow to handle things, it is undeniable that it has more advantages. The clan system is the foundation for our Hibiscus flower family to be based in the aristocratic forest."

Liang Lidong sighed long. He remembered the concept of the clan system. He told the Dinah brother and sister that they did establish the clan system in the game, and the same is true in reality. It seems that the game and reality must have a deep connection.

Gavin saw Liang Lidong pondering and smiled, so he didn't bother him. After a while, the carriage stopped in front of a large manor. Several guards rushed over at the door of the manor to help the carriage open the door. Gavin and Liang Lidong jumped out of the carriage and walked in the white and blue stone path. The manor was very big. The south garden was a lawn with grass and many apple trees were planted. In addition, there were some small animals such as cats and dogs playing between the lawns and trees.

At the end of the curved stone path is a large two-story wooden house, the outer room is painted light gold, but the wooden door is lilac.

When I opened the wooden door and walked in, I saw a young man and a girl sitting opposite each other in the main hall. The young man was dancing and saying something. The girl covered her mouth and smiled, looking very happy.

Hearing the movement beside him, the two of them turned around at the same time. When the young man saw the fat man, he stood up and said, "I'm very happy to see you, Lord Gavin, I've been waiting for you here for a while."

But the girl ran over and held the fat man's hand, called her father sweetly, and then fell curious eyes on Liang Lidong.

Gavin looked at the boy and smiled and said, "Hisser Darwin, I'm glad you can come to my place to be a guest, but I know that your mind is not on me, so I'll spare you the polite words. I still have some things to deal with now, so Tina will be responsible for the reception. Don't blame me for not understanding the way of hospitality."

Hearing this, the boy and girl's faces turned red.

Liang Lidong's eyes stayed on the girl's face for a long time, and even a little dazed. The girl is indeed good-looking, but this is not because Liang Lidong looks a few more times, but because this girl named Tina looks very much like Dinah... However, it is not strange that the two of them are the same ancestors, the same blood relationship, and it is not strange that they look similar.

Gavin turned to Liang Lidong and said, "Grandma Beta, please wait here for a while, I'll go up and get some things down."

Liang Lidong nodded, and after Gawen went upstairs, he sat down aside.

Originally, the atmosphere in the living room was filled with a sweet smell, but at this time, the light bulb of Liang Lidong was added, and the atmosphere immediately became awkward. However, these two people were children of nobles and were very good at socializing. They quickly adjusted their mindset. The boy named Darwin even took the initiative to take the lead two steps and sat close to Liang Lidong and asked: "I heard from His Excellency Gavin that your name is Beta?"

Liang Lidong nodded.

"Red Priest Beta?"

Liang Lidong continued to nod, and the young man took a breath of air conditioning, and Tina looked surprised at this time. However, the surprises between the two were different. The boy was almost in a state of "fear", while the girl Tina was "curious" surprised.

Thanks to the free publicity of the 'mercenary union', Liang Lidong's reputation in Dongfeng City is no less than that of the city lord Uther. Darwin's fair face is full of admiration: "The Lord Beta doesn't look much older than us, but he is already such a powerful spellcaster, which is really enviable!"

The girl Tina also nodded repeatedly, and the strong will be respected no matter where they are.

Liang Lidong looked at the two of them, and he smiled at Darwin and said, "Any strength can only be achieved through your own efforts, and you won't care for the time being..." He turned his gaze to Tina, and then said in a strange tone: "You have the talent to become a powerful paladin, why not try to work hard?"
