Chapter 21
Yesterday, Ryan took out the love fruit, and Bunier also showed off the food prepared today. Although the taste was average, it tasted much better than the previous bacon. Before going to the restaurant, Ryan ate some in the room.
Soft bread bought from the store, then a bowl of rich broth at the restaurant, followed by a leisurely afternoon.
People who have been busy all morning can take a short rest before starting their hard work again in the afternoon.
Ryan put down his napkin and stood up to go back to the room when Henry suddenly appeared and stopped in front of him.
"Oh, good afternoon... Dear Mr. Ryan, you are the glory of Oran." Henry's round waist was slightly bent, his head lowered, not daring to look at Ryan, and he asked in a respectful and humble voice: "I'm sorry to bother you, can you?"
Will it take you some time?"
Ryan stopped, his eyes flat, "What's the matter?"
"It's about the escort team."
Henry continued to lower his head, "You also know that Moses died in... the forest yesterday. The position of captain of the guard team is vacant, and a new guard captain needs to be elected."
There was a maid passing by, and he wanted to shift the responsibility to Ryan, but Henry was a little scared.
Ryan pursed his lips and thought.
Seeing that he didn't reply for a while, Henry bit the bullet and continued: "If you don't know who to choose, I have a recommendation from someone here. His name is Aiden, and he is an excellent warrior."
Ryan said softly.
Seeing that he did not refute directly, just when Henry was about to speak again hopefully, he heard Ryan suddenly say: "I haven't thought about it yet, so let the position of captain of the guard team remain vacant for now."
Then he turned around gracefully and left the restaurant.
"..."
Henry looked up at Ryan's leaving back, the fat on his face was twitching ferociously, and his eyes were extremely malicious.
When the people around him saw that the situation was wrong, they all gave in. Henry secretly thought to himself that this annoying lord should have been allowed to die on the first day.
After leaving the restaurant, Ryan returned to his room, sat at the table and continued to perfect his money-making plan. Not long after, Asa knocked gently on his door.
"Dear lord, Henry and Bunir yesterday..."
Asa stopped in front of Ryan and told Ryan everything Henry had done yesterday and this morning in detail. After receiving the new instructions, he left the room with his whereabouts hidden.
At night, the celestial bird flapped its wings and flew in from the window, with a cloth bag hooked on its claws.
"Thanks a lot."
Ryan gently stroked the celestial bird's forehead feathers with his fingertips, fed it another sweet berry, and untied the cloth bag hooked by the tip of the celestial bird's claws, which contained the love fruit seeds washed with water.
.
Ryan poured the seeds into the palm of his hand and asked the system in his mind: "Can these really be grown?"
A rough count suggests that there are more than a hundred.
"Yes, but it requires nourishment from the flower fairy." The system quickly checked the quality of the seeds in his hand. "In addition, it will take longer to mature and the yield will be reduced."
"It's enough if it yields results."
Ryan smiled and put the seeds back into the bag and put them into his space ring.
The scent of lavender helps you sleep well, keeping you dreamless all night until morning.
The window was left open at night, and the gentle sunshine kissed Ryan's cheek with the breeze. The next day it was still a bright and good weather.
The waiters rotated their shifts, and the ones who brought the basin and towels were two new maids. They were younger and more beautiful than Emily and Ma Lian. They had gentle smiles on their faces after entering the room.
They looked kind and kind, and spoke words of respect and loyalty, but Ryan did not see a personal panel above their heads.
After simply washing up and waiting for the new maid to leave, Ryan held a refreshing candy in his mouth, looked sideways at the celestial bird on the table, walked over and touched its wings and said softly: "Go find Emily, I'm here
The room is waiting for you."
The Celestial Bird chirped twice happily, rubbed his fingertips affectionately, then flapped its wings and flew out the door, easily finding Ai Moli in the castle who was cleaning with the other maids.
"Tweet~"
The Celestial Bird made a clear cry, attracting the attention of the maids, and circled around everyone's heads, and then stopped on the head of a pure white statue.
Someone pointed to the celestial bird on the head of the statue and asked: "Is that the lord's pet? The red color on the white feathers is like fire. It is really a beautiful bird."
Her simple compliment was far less beautiful than Tian Mianniao's appearance, but it attracted many people to echo her.
Emily held a broom in her hand. When she raised her head, she met Tian Mianniao's eyes, and she immediately understood that it was Ryan who had something to do with her.
When the smart celestial bird saw Emily nodding towards it in a vague way, it flapped its wings and flew away as if nothing had happened, circling around the castle, causing countless people to marvel and praise.
"Have you found anyone?"
The celestial bird returned to the room closest to the sun in the castle, and Ryan touched its beautiful wings.
The Celestial Mian bird raised its head proudly, and when its wingtips were raised, some gravel inadvertently fell from the feathers on both sides and fell on the table.
The silvery gravel is like sand, not much in quantity, but very beautiful.
The Tianmian bird tilted its head and looked at its wings in confusion, as if wondering why stones fell out of its feathers.
(The feathers will occasionally fall off when shaking...)
Ryan suddenly remembered the introduction of the Celestial Bird, rubbed its cheek, and curiously asked the system in his mind: "What are these?"
"It is the crystallization of doom after being broken into pieces."
The system's reply sounded a little subtle, as if it was surprised that such a thing would drop from the wings of a celestial bird.
"This name doesn't sound very auspicious."
Ryan immediately stopped trying to touch Silver Sand, "So what's the use of this thing?"
System: "Contact for a period of time will bring misfortune. It is one of the foods that the fallen devil likes."
Ryan clapped his hands when he heard this, "Then this is a good thing. Do many people know this thing?"
The system hesitated for a second: "Not much."
If the priests of the temple heard what Ryan said, they would probably send Ryan to the stake directly.
Ryan noticed that the system was a little confused. He found something to pack the broken gray sand and said, "You said this thing can bring misfortune, so I won't keep it myself, but it would be a great idea to give it as a gift."
Good choice."
The system instantly understood: "I see, do you need my help?"
Ryan thought for a while, "Are these crystals of doom useful alone? Or is it best to use them all?"
"Because they are broken crystals of misfortune, the greater the number, the stronger the misfortune. It is difficult for ordinary people to resist the misfortune."
"Is that so?" Ryan nodded, "Then please help me make these crystals of doom into a key."
"The handling fee is one silver coin."
Ryan sighed, "Just one silver coin."
Once Henry is solved, he will be rich again!
Emily finished her cleaning work and secretly went to Ryan's room alone. The maid who was spying on her quietly put down her work and found the butler Henry.
After knocking on the door and pushing open, Emery politely asked Ryan in the room: "Dear Lord, is there anything you need me to do?"
"Yes, I'm going out later."
Ryan gave her the bag with the love fruit and took out the key of doom. "You give the bag to Bart and Suo, find a reason to give the key to Henry, I have to go out later, because my room
Enter the thieves."
Emily paused for a second and realized what Ryan meant, "I will comply with your arrangement."
Then he put the bag away and took the key in his hand.
Ryan placed a spell on the key, and only the third person who touches the key will encounter bad luck.
After confirming that Bu Dai would not be discovered, Emily took the key and exited the room.
The celestial bird flapped its wings, and Ryan walked to the window. He tapped a flower pot with his finger, and then the seedlings in the mud grew wildly and turned into a thornless slender vine. When the tip of the vine touched the ground, Ryan grabbed the green vine.
, landed easily along the window, without disturbing the guards guarding the castle.
