Chapter 338: The goal, the night of the full moon
"Husband Qiu Kai? Hello, did you sleep comfortably last night?" Walking in the corridor of the castle, Qiu Kai was yawning while walking. When the sun just rose, the entire castle also looked much warmer. Well, in the jungle, the sun can rise, which proves that it is already late... But for Qiu Kai, it is morning, isn't it?
"Ha, it's okay, where can I eat breakfast?" Qiu Kai said to Heda Valen in front of him after stretching his waist.
Heda Valen, the eldest daughter of the Earl Valen, is full of royal sister style and magnificent upper body, which is amazing.
"Breakfast? Well, okay, please come here." Heda Valen was stunned when he heard Qiu Kai's words, and glanced at his watch. At 10:50, he shook his head. Well, Qiu Kai's philosophy is really hard to understand.
But now Qiu Kai is a guest, so he will say whatever he says. Heda Valen shrugged and turned around to take Qiu Kai to the dining room where they had eaten yesterday. But at this time, there was no one in the dining room.
"Miss." Seeing Linda Valen coming, the maid who was cleaning up here bent down and said to her.
As for seeing Qiu Kai from behind, he was also startled and nodded respectfully.
"Go and prepare some food, cooked food, Qiu Kai's husband wants to eat." Looking at the maid, Heda Valen said with a smile, but although she was smiling, the breath of being in power for a long time still made the maid in front of her dare not act rashly, and she retreated respectfully, while Qiu Kai sat next to her, waiting for the arrival of breakfast, as for what to eat. Alas, it's enough to eat anyway.
"Yes." After hearing Heda Valen's words, the maid nodded respectfully, and then slowly retreated.
Heda Valen also sat beside Qiu Kai, waiting for the arrival of the meal with Qiu Kai.
"How long should I stay here? Do those people have any specific attack time?" While waiting for the meal, Qiu Kai said to Heda Valen next to him. To be honest, Qiu Kai has no interest in this gloomy place for a long time.
"The specific time will be within half a month, because in another half month, it will not be January 27th. The full moon night of the New Year is the best time for them to resurrect the ancestor. If they did not resurrect the ancestor at that time, they would have to wait for another hundred years to wait for the saint of this term to die, and then wait for the first full moon night of the New Year when the new saint turns 18 years old before they can resurrect the ancestor. I guess they will not wait until that time." Shaking his head, Heda Valen said to Qiu Kai. After hearing her words, Qiu Kai was stunned for a moment.
Originally, he asked this question, but he never expected her to answer, because this matter did not seem to be something that an ordinary girl could understand. But unexpectedly, this girl knew so much. It was a surprise.
"Oh, because our family has reached our generation. Although my father and mother worked hard, they did not give birth to a male. In addition, a while ago, my father was attacked by Durand Cino, a member of the Vampire Council, and lost his function. Well, that kind of thing, so our family can no longer be continued with men. As the eldest daughter, I was ordered as the heir to the next count. These were all told by my father later." As if seeing Qiu Kai's confusion, Heda explained with a smile.
"Oh, that's it!" Hearing Heda's words, Qiu Kai thought in his mind that he must go back for the New Year. January 27 is OK. After solving the problem here, he will take a plane home. If the time is enough, he will be enough.
At this moment, the maid over there also walked back with some food. Qiu Kai had already prepared something bad, but unexpectedly, these people were really... smart enough that they knew that they were not good at making cooked food.
So I never thought of making it for Qiu Kai. What they brought was a hamburger...
The bread you make yourself, and the meat steaks you put in from the fast food, don’t need to add any seasonings. When making it, fry it, then heat the bread, add tomato sauce and salad dressing, and then lettuce, and that’s fine.
The juice I drink is simple, convenient and fast, and the most important thing is that Qiu Kai also likes to eat it.
"This thing is good." Because I met last night, these people knew that Qiu Kai could eat it, so they specially prepared five double-layer beef burgers for Qiu Kai. Qiu Kai smiled at the burgers, took one, and bit it up.
"It's good that you like it. In addition to these, we have also prepared a lot of frozen dumplings and ordered a lot of pizza from the Pizza restaurant in Bucharest for your consumption." Hearing that Qiu Kai was satisfied, Heda also smiled and said.
Although the dumplings and pizza are not very delicious, it is not the time to consider this matter now, and some of them are good to eat.
Qiu Kai soon wiped out all five burgers, and a large juice drink also entered Qiu Kai's stomach.
"Uh, it feels so comfortable!" Qiu Kai said with satisfaction after patting his stomach.
"Since you're full, then Qiu Kai's husband, should you go around us? The scenery nearby is pretty good." Seeing Qiu Kai's full, Heda also asked with a smile. Qiu Kai thought for a while, and was embarrassed to ask when he would have lunch, so he nodded. He always stayed in the house and had nothing to do. When he came yesterday, he found that the scenery here was OK, so he could come and have a look.
Seeing Qiu Kai nodding, Heda also smiled, and then took Qiu Kai to the outside of the castle.
Although the temperature in Bucharest drops below zero at night, as long as the sun comes out during the day, it will be above zero, so it is difficult to freeze here, and even ice is difficult to form, let alone frost or something.
The trees here are basically evergreen trees. Under such temperatures, they are all green and beautiful all year round.
When I went out and walked around, I would not see a desolate view like I was in Helan or in my hometown of Ice City.
After leaving the castle, Heda took Qiu Kai first to the garden composed of lawns in front.
As soon as he walked in, Qiu Kai saw a big man standing on the lawn. At this time, the big man was carefully cutting trees and flowers and plants. The whole person gave Qiu Kai a feeling of being a little dull. Even Heda walked past him, he seemed to have no feeling, which made Qiu Kai look at him twice more.
"James is our gardener, but you also know that although we are hostile to vampires, and the Holy See also cannot be too intimate with us because of our identity, so it is difficult for us to enter human society. This area is our own private place, but it is not easy to recruit people. We are not as easy as other vampires, who can develop offline at will. If we do this, the Holy See will probably be the first to stop us, so we can only hire some people, well, people with some innate defects, and only they will not care about our identity." Seeing Qiu Kai's gaze, Heda explained while smiling.
However, Qiu Kai could feel that although she was smiling and talking, there was something in her words, um, sad?
"What about those people outside?" Qiu Kai asked Heda after pointing at the people outside.
"Those people are originally loyal to our family. After our family became vampires, those people did not choose to leave, but chose to become subordinates of our family. Our family will hand over the original family's industries to these people to manage, and they will give our family some benefits every year, which is considered rent, and then help to stay here. Everything is supervised by the Holy Seen by the people in the distance, Heda explained with some self-deprecating explanation.
"It seems that your life is not very good. The Holy See is useful to you, so it raises you like a canary." Qiu Kai looked at Heda and sighed helplessly. Although the Earl Valen's family looked very rich and had a very status, they were actually just some birds that had lost their nature and were surrounded in this ancient castle.
"There is nothing wrong with canary, at least we don't have to worry about livelihood and safety, right? If something goes wrong this time, strong people like you come to help us. Those families in the wild do not have such benefits." Heda chuckled, and seemed to accept his fate, and she was right.
Freedom is really mysterious. The birds outside are free, but they have to shoulder the burden of life and risk finding food. If the food cannot be found, they will starve to death. Even if the food is found, they are discovered by other natural enemies, such as larger birds, snakes, or even fish, they may be eaten. Freedom is proportional to danger.
Even though I am raised in captivity, I have no freedom, but I have no worries about food and clothing, and I am still very safe. This is for freedom.
"Do you want to go to the forest?" As if you want to change the topic, Heda said to Qiu Kai with a smile at the first time.
"Okay, there should be some wild game in the forest." Hearing Heda's words, Qiu Kai didn't have the heart to care about the secret issues of this family. But it was good to go to the forest. The greening here is so good, there should be a lot of wild animals.
"Wild? Are you talking about wild animals? There are some in this forest, but because it is still too close to the town, there are only some small beasts here, namely rabbits, pheasants, wild boars, etc. Deep in the forest, there are some sheep, deer, carnivore, more weasels, and some bears. But I heard that there are wolves in the forest, but no one has seen them." In the eyes of Westerners, wolves are much more threatening than bears, and it is the same in China.
There is an old saying, "One pig, two bear, three tigers." Tigers mainly live in seclusion in the mountains and rarely deal with people."
As for Xiong, he would come down the mountain from time to time, and this thing is too curious and threatened not particularly big. (To be continued...)
