"How strange." Mrs. Linka asked inexplicably: "Why do you think this gangster suddenly fell from the sky?"
"Well, I think this kid may have accidentally stumbled or something while escaping." Guan Heng prevaricated like this, and then said to Mrs. Linka: "Just in time, hand over this villain to the garrison in this city.
General Lacey, the commander of the armored army, teach him a lesson!"
"Haha, my benefactor is right." Mrs. Linka was still a little upset and kicked the strong man hard with her heel: "You bastard, you dare to hold me hostage, go to hell!"
"Okay, dear countess." Guan Heng said softly: "Don't get angry with this idiot anymore. You should go back to where you are staying to calm down. Also, this is the ambergris berry they stole.
Should the crystal cover be sent back to your home or taken to a store in the shopping street?"
"Well, my benefactor, I have to trouble you to take this crystal shield with me back home." Mrs. Linka smiled awkwardly: "Because this thing is too heavy, and I, a weak woman, can't even lift it.
."
In fact, Mrs. Linka was thinking about how to thank Guan Heng for saving her life, so she came up with an excuse to ask Guan Heng to go home with her.
At this moment, the sound of rapid horse hooves came from near the entrance of the abandoned manor. It turned out that Commander Lacey and Hoadley arrived with the armored troops.
"Guan Heng, we're here." Still far away, Hoadley shouted loudly to Guan Heng on his horse: "The big bird you raised was flying in the air near the city gate. I guessed it might be
There has been progress, so I brought people here as soon as possible."
"Haha, I didn't expect you to be quite smart, Lao Huo." Guan Heng smiled and quickly introduced to everyone: "This is Mrs. Linka. I just rescued her from the bad guys."
"Oh, Lady Crimson Countess, you are frightened!" The frightened Commander Lacey quickly got off his horse and half-knelt in front of the countess: "Mrs. Linka, Lacey is extremely sorry for the accident that happened to you. In my
There are lawless people under the government who are trying to harm you. I have neglected my duty and I am guilty!"
"Okay, you get up first, Commander Lacey." Mrs. Linka, who had just been rescued and survived the disaster, seemed to have no intention of losing her temper. She said softly: "I just heard what my benefactor, Mr. Heng, said.
You guarded the city gate strictly and didn't let the gangsters take advantage of the chaos to kidnap me out of the city. This also indirectly saved my life. I thank you before it's too late."
"Uh, I'm scared, Madam, I'm so complimentary." Commander Lacey stood up from his half-kneeling position, glanced at Guan Heng gratefully, and secretly made a mental note of Guan Heng's intercession for him.
At this moment, Lacey thought to herself: "Hoadley is right, Mr. Guan Heng is really a righteous man. He just said a few words in front of Mrs. Linka in an understatement, which saved me a lot of trouble."
Less trouble, he’s a nice guy and worth getting to know!”
"My benefactor, Guan Heng." As soon as Mrs. Linka said this, Guan Heng said quickly: "Dear countess, please don't ever call me your benefactor again. I can't bear the responsibility."
"Haha, don't say that, a benefactor is a benefactor." Mrs. Linka said carelessly: "I can't lose my etiquette."
After thinking about it, Guan Heng replied politely: "You might as well call me Guan Heng. It's not rude."
"Okay, then don't call me the respected countess." The crimson countess smiled and said, "Just call me Mrs. Linka."
"Da da da da" Just at this moment, there was a rush of horse hoofbeats in the distance. Everyone looked up and saw that it was Mrs. Linka's red carriage driving over.
"Ahem." The Countess cleared her throat, and then said to everyone: "Everyone, I am out of danger today, thanks to Guan Heng and everyone for their help. To express my gratitude, I decided to hold a banquet at my residence tonight.
, everyone is invited to attend.”
"Madam, please allow me to retire for a moment." At this time, Commander Lacey said softly: "I will take the captured gangsters back to the military camp to deal with the aftermath."
"Okay, General Lacey." The crimson countess nodded slightly and said, "I will be waiting for you at the local banquet tonight. Thank you for your hard work."
So, Lacey ordered the armored soldiers to drag away the fainting strong man like a dog to death, then he got on his horse and left.
A moment later, it was already dusk, and the Crimson Countess's luxurious mansion was in the city.
At this time, Mrs. Linka entertained Guan Heng, Hyde, Plan and Hoadley warmly in the living room.
At the banquet, everyone was eating and chatting happily. At this time, Guan Heng glanced at the crystal cover of ambergris berries placed on the nearby table. He casually asked the countess: "Mrs."
"Guan Heng, why did you forget again!" Mrs. Linka took a sip of the red wine in the glass, and then said: "Didn't we agree? I'm a few years older than you, and you want to call me Sister Linka.
"
"Yes, sister Linka." Guan Heng quickly changed his words. He had never thought before that this duchess was the best drunkard. Especially after she was half drunk, she treated everyone as brothers and sisters, and she became even more enthusiastic.
In fact, this is also the generous side of Mrs. Linka. She has no palace and is very sincere to her friends. Therefore, the Countess is the noble with the best reputation among the lords of the East County of Kauru Kingdom, and everyone is willing to become friends with her.
Guan Heng blinked and asked: "Sister Linka, you just said that those ambergris berries suddenly grew in your yard. What's going on?"
"Haha, it sounds strange." Mrs. Linka motioned to the waiter beside her to pour herself another glass of red wine, and then said to Guan Heng: "Every year on the death anniversary of the dead guy in my family, I will take people to visit the grave, probably
three years ago”
That year, Mrs. Linka took several servants to the cemetery to sweep the grave of her late husband. However, she accidentally saw a vermilion berry tree on the slope near the cemetery, with more than a dozen bright berries growing on it, and it had a strange fragrance.
It's tangy and very strange.
Mrs. Linka did not know the name of this thing. At that time, she sent people to ask around. Finally, several knowledgeable elders, after seeing the berry tree, said with certainty that this was a rare ambergris berry with astonishing characteristics.
It has a healing effect, and almost all diseases of those who consume it are eliminated.
Hearing this, the Crimson Countess was immediately overjoyed, because her only son had contracted a strange disease not long ago and could not be cured by medicine, which made Mrs. Linka worried to death. The appearance of ambergris berries was like a blessing from heaven.
The berry tree was quickly protected by the people ordered by the Crimson Countess. Then, one by one, the berries on it entered the belly of Mrs. Linka’s son. This fruit did have miraculous healing effects. Mrs. Linka’s only son took it.
After that, a small life was saved.
