Chapter 68 Holding Hands

 The crow wearing a beak mask watched at the scene as the second flaming horse swallowed the potion and transformed into a noble ghost horse in a few minutes.

He immediately felt excited and returned to Haizhen with a bottle of directed mutation potion.

If he doesn't go back, the high-tech orders in the alchemy workshop may explode.

After all, the apprentices in the alchemy workshop cannot handle alchemy orders that require the hands of Sheng Tiao.

He brought the bottle of potion with him to facilitate sales, so that the customers would not be able to see the actual product and talk about it.

After the crow left, Simon also began to prepare for tomorrow's funeral.

Because three hours ago, he received an invitation letter to Ute's funeral from Haizhen's courier.

As an old comrade in arms, Simon will definitely go there.

His original plan was to miss the time when the White Fruit Adventure Group would attend the funeral and worship alone.

But his parents have sent him a letter to invite him, so he can’t go there secretly.

Out of politeness, he will attend the funeral at the time invited by others.

Of course, he was also prepared to keep a low profile and not take the initiative to approach the White Fruit Adventure Group, lest people think he wanted to poach others.

Although he has already done this, if he goes too far on the surface, it will also damage his reputation.

But Simon didn't expect that his carriage would be too high-profile for this funeral.

It was only when Simon drove a carriage to the noble funeral garden on the outskirts of Haizhen and looked at the carriages costing hundreds of thousands that he realized it.

His horse is too high profile.

The Nether Horse is the most powerful and precious horse breed since the development of the tenth floor.

Even the horses from the White Fruit Adventure Group are not half as expensive as the Nether Horses.

Now he was forced to make a high-profile entrance.

As soon as he stepped off the carriage, he felt the gazes of a group of people coming from the entrance of the cemetery.

They had already noticed this noble horse when Simon got off the car.

Its whole body is pure black, but it is burning with cyan flames, which feels like a half illusion and half reality.

Everyone present has seen the appearance of the Nether Horse and can sense the soul fluctuations revealed by the Nether Horse.

There is no doubt that this is a noble horse that represents status.

Even for some large adventure groups, ghost horses are extremely rare and not everyone can equip them.

Because the production of this horse breed is relatively rare, and reservations need to be made two or three months in advance, it may not be possible to get a reservation.

After all, there are too many nobles who want Nether Horses. For such a rare horse breed, whoever owns one will undoubtedly gain more face and demonstrate financial strength.

Simon sees the Nether Horse from a practical point of view, but others see it as a symbol of status.

When Simon stepped off the Nether Horse, a look of surprise flashed across everyone's face.

"This is Mr. Simon from the Snow Mountain Adventure Group?"

Everyone was shocked and confused.

Simon, who is it?

Someone remembered.

Simon is an assistant who comes out of the white fruit.

Logically speaking, how could he, who has no background, get so much money to buy a ghost horse?

If I buy this horse, I'm afraid I'll lose everything.

Either Simon falls in love with someone, but who could that person be?

Everyone looked at the carriage in unison to see who else had not gotten off.

"Commander, look, it's a Nether Horse. Do you know anyone who rides a Nether Horse?"

At the gate of the cemetery, the people with white fruits are also among them.

The archer Myers looked at the noble ghost horse. The cold horse's head seemed to have a contemptuous look in his eyes, which made Meers very happy and felt inexplicably happy.

Mei Guo was called by her companion and looked over.

But she didn't look at the horse, but kept her eye on the person next to the carriage - Simon.

Why is Simon there?

It was not unexpected that he came to attend Ute's funeral.

It’s just that the ghost horse next to Simon is a bit too inconsistent with his status.

It was also at this time that the curtain on the carriage opened a corner.

A silver-haired girl wearing a black dress and a hazy veil walked out of the carriage and stood on the carriage frame.

The moment she came out, dozens of eyes looked at her with strong respect.

Some people think that this veiled girl is the golden thigh that Simon hugged.

However, Mei Guo, who was far away in the crowd, immediately recognized the man's figure and hair.

It’s Xiaoqian!

It must be her!

Xiao Qian also noticed that the group leader was watching her, which made her feel a little nervous, and she didn't know how to get down for a while.

After all, she is from White Fruit, but recently she has been living in Simon's residence, and she has a strong sense of betrayal, as if she betrayed Captain Mei Guo.

What to do?

At this moment, Simon stretched out his hand, hanging in the air, like a gentleman, giving her a step and picking her up.

Xiaoqian behind the black veil has an expressionless face.

But when she saw Simon hand over his hand, she couldn't help but be stunned.

At this moment, the eyes of outsiders, the gaze from the group leader, and the inner sense of betrayal were all suppressed.

In her eyes, only the big hand remained.

She leaned down slightly, placed her little hands in Simon's heavy palms, and clasped them tightly.

Then she felt a pulling force, pulling her down.

She used her other hand to gently lift the hem of her skirt, placed one foot and gently stepped off the carriage, holding Simon's hand tightly with her palm the entire time, and landed gracefully.

For some reason, the whole person felt erratic, as if in a dream.

And this scene happened to be watched by Captain Mei Guo.

She saw Xiao Qian getting out of Simon's carriage, and also saw Simon holding her by the hand and getting out of the car.

No matter whether Simon rented the carriage or someone lent it to him.

In short, the signal for Xiaoqian and Simon to stay together is already an extremely strong signal of rebellion for her.

"This little traitor!" She felt a little annoyed and immediately walked over to Simon.

When people saw Meguo walking out of the crowd, they immediately looked at her to see what she and Simon would say.

However, under the gazes of one after another, Meguo did not rush to ask Xiao Qian why she got off Simon's carriage. Instead, she put on an ugly look and complained: "Why are you here so late? Hurry up and get back to the team!"

"Oh."

Xiaoqian nodded expressionlessly, and her tone suddenly dropped.

She felt a little guilty, and quickly let go of Simon's hand, and followed the leader back to her team.

When returning to the team, Xiaoqian stood in the crowd and suddenly looked back, looking for Simon.

Looking around, she saw Simon holding the funeral invitation letter and meeting Ute's parents to pay their respects as a courtesy.

Ute's old mother burst into tears when she listened to Simon telling about the adventures related to Ute.

Everyone heard the sound and stepped forward to comfort Ute's old mother.

As for Simon's side, it was suddenly empty, and no one cared whether Simon was sad or not.

Logically speaking, the empty seat next to Simon should have been hers.

However, now is not the time.
