The four hundred and ninety-first chapter [the world's first martial arts conference](1/2)
Chapter 491 [The best martial arts tournament in the world]
Originally, Du Wei only planned to come here for a casual visit, but he also had an appointment with Count Villa, Camisillo and others in the evening.
But seeing the appearance of the Continental Knights Association, Du Wei suddenly changed his mind and simply sent someone with his own message to invite Count Villa, Lord Camisillo, and Delan Shan.
Warcraft and others, let's just come to the Knights Association headquarters together in the evening.
"Uh, you mean, eat here at night?" Deron blinked, then smiled weirdly, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Dove! Dove!!"
He was calling the lame old janitor who was guarding the door just now. From the looks of it, he was probably a servant here.
Who knows, after shouting twice, the lame old man immediately emerged from a room and yelled back at Delong with a louder voice: "Why are you making a noise! I'm busy!"
Judging from his rude look, one could almost mistake Delong for being his servant.
Delong didn't seem to care at all, he laughed and said: "Prepare more food, we have guests tonight."
The old doctor limped up to Delong with an unhappy look on his face, and stretched out his palm with a look of displeasure on his face.
"What?"
"Money! My Lord!" The old guy snorted a few times: "I'm not a magician, and I won't conjure food out of thin air! You have to give me money for selling vegetables... Damn it, we are
I have been eating those cabbage cooked with tomatoes, or tomatoes cooked with cabbage! I am staying with you and haven’t eaten meat for a month... It’s good for you. You can still go to the banquets of those noble lords every now and then to have some delicious food.
I can't bear the food anymore. Also, you still owe me half a year's wages."
Delong scratched the back of his head, laughed twice, pointed at Du Wei next to him, and said, "See? This is an honored guest, the famous Duke Tulip! After entertaining this distinguished guest tonight, we will
You can have beef every day!”
"Really?" The old guy glanced at Du Wei with some doubt: "So we don't have to sneak out to pick up vegetable leaves on the street at night?"
But this old guy glanced at Du Wei, frowned and said: "Is he a Duke? I think he's not as big as my little grandson! Don't lie to me... Delong, where did you find them again?"
A guy who cheats on food and drink, right?"
Du Wei sighed inwardly. He quickly took out a few gold coins from his pocket and handed them over, placing them in Old Dove's hand. However, the old servant still looked at him suspiciously and put the gold coins in his mouth.
After biting hard twice, his eyes widened: "Oh, God, it's a real gold coin!"
"Go quickly and get something delicious...and bring back some wine." Delong added: "You old drunkard, don't intercept it secretly!"
The old lame man glared at Delong, then held the gold coins and walked away quickly. It seemed that he was half a step too slow. He was afraid that Du Wei would take the gold coins back.
Seeing the weird look on Du Wei's face, Delong laughed: "Hahahaha... This old Dov, he was my teacher's retinue back then... Well, my teacher was a real knight back then. Dov
He has been my teacher's servant all his life. When he got old, his legs became lame, so he could only stay here as a handyman for the rest of his life. Speaking of which, he has been here longer than I am."
Delong walked quickly inside and kicked open the door of the innermost main hall of the Knights Association. He saw the dust behind the door, but he smiled as if he didn't care: "Please come in, everyone!"
Du Wei giggled twice, then suddenly pointed at the artifact "Longinus' Spear" that was still hanging on the saddle of Delong's "donkey", and said with a wry smile: "Well, my President, don't you
I will just throw this artifact here casually."
"Sacred weapon?" Delong curled his lips, obviously showing some disdain: "It's just a broken gun. Humph. It looks like it's useless. To be honest, this kind of thing has more meaning than reality now, and it's just that.
It's just a symbolic thing. It can't be used to fight. It's just used as a decoration... Who cares about it? Later, I'll ask old Doufu to find a room to clean and hang it up."
Du Wei had some doubts about Delong's sincerity. In his opinion, it was a blessing that the old man didn't use this broken gun as a fire stick!
Sure enough, Delong pinched his chin: "Well... Speaking of which, old Doufu has been complaining that there is a lack of a fire stick in the kitchen..."
Du Wei sighed: "No! This is an artifact after all! If it's not convenient for you to store it here, then let me take it back for safekeeping... Do you trust me?"
Delong immediately burst into laughter: "Hahaha! What are you talking about! It's just a broken iron rod! Even if you take it to a shop to pawn it, it won't be worth much money. Why don't you worry, since
If you ask, take it back first."
Du Wei was a little dissatisfied after all: "This is a divine weapon after all! The Spear of Longinus..."
"So what?" Delong blinked: "Obviously, since the regent is willing to give it to me, it means that it has no power at all! If it is very powerful, how could it be lost to me? Now
It is just a symbol...it has no practical use at all! To be honest, let alone it, I just get a gun, hang it on the wall, and tell outsiders, "No, this is the knight's gun!"
Don’t you believe it all the same? This kind of thing... hum... is just a decoration. Who cares whether it is true or false."
The president of the Knights Association is actually such a person... It is really God's will.
Du Wei was speechless, but walked to the side and picked up the Gun of Longinus, solemnly put it into his storage ring, and then followed Deron into the main hall inside.
But Du Wei didn't know that just when he turned around to get the Gun of Longinus, Deron behind him looked at him. A smile of success flashed in his eyes!
It was obvious that when old Dov came back, judging from the food and drinks he brought back, it seemed that the old guy regarded Duwei as his son!
Du Wei gave him a full ten gold coins. Even in the most expensive hotel in the imperial capital, ten gold coins can be enough to eat a table of good food. But this old guy took ten gold coins and went out. In just half a day,
The things he brought back were obviously lacking. From Du Wei's point of view, the food that the old man brought back was worth three or four gold coins at most, which was quite impressive.
Even Delong couldn't stand such blatant corruption. He slapped the table and glared: "Dove! What are you doing! Where is the rest of the money!"
The old guy glared at the president without fear, and patted his pocket: "Don't forget to put it in my pocket. You still owe me half a year's wages! A total of three gold coins! And the first half of the year."
We built that damn cargo shed together, and you borrowed four gold coins from me! Now that you have money, you don’t want to pay me back, but think about eating and drinking first! If I don’t take it myself, can you brat remember to change the money?
?”
This old guy had such a loud voice that Du Wei sat next to him and couldn't help crying or laughing.
After all, Delong was short-tongued and had to sit down with an embarrassed look on his face after muttering a few words.
Du Wei had no choice but to come out and pretend to be a good person and comforted him: "Okay. Mr. Delong, it seems that your life was really poor before. Let's do this. I will send someone to deliver some daily necessities to you tomorrow, as well as the future."
You don’t have to worry about funding issues.”
Old Doufu then turned around and walked out muttering, and when he walked outside, he shouted: "I said, Delong, little bastard! Why did you throw the horse against the pillar again! After a while, the animal pulled the horse.
Do you want me to clean up the excrement?!"
Du Wei opened his mouth: How can there be such a servant in the world? Where is this servant? He is simply the master’s biological father!!
Although Old Doufu has a bad mouth and a bad temper, even Du Wei has to admit that this old guy has a really good cooking skills!
At least the mushroom soup was very similar to the aroma coming from the kitchen. Even Du Wei, who was sitting in the main hall, could smell it.
At this moment, Du Wei was asking Deron about the situation of the Knights Association.
"Your Excellency Delong, I heard you say that there are currently six people in the Knights Association headquarters in the imperial capital. But it's getting late now... where are the others? Why didn't you see them?"
Deron looked a little embarrassed: "Oh, yes, there are four knights... but they... they all took a vacation recently and are resting at home..."
"Why?" Du Wei frowned.
"Because...because they are injured." Deron sighed.
"Injured?" Du Wei immediately understood that there must be something going on. There was no war on the mainland, and there was nothing going on in the imperial capital. How could a knight be injured?
"Who are they dueling with?" Du Wei frowned. The knight was injured. It was probably because he was dueling with others.
"Judgment? Haha..." Delong laughed a few times and told the details of the situation.
It turns out that the other four so-called "knights" don't have much martial arts skills at all. They are just people with a name here. With the current situation of the Continental Knights Association, it is difficult to have money to recruit any capable people.
The four guys at the Imperial Capital Headquarters are only a little bit more skilled than ordinary people. They are all low-level warriors who can't survive. It's better to just make a living here than to go to the slave market street.
Selling one's strength.
But the bad thing is that a few days ago, Delong was creative and used the vacant space in the association headquarters as a warehouse for rent, and the price was 30% lower than the rent of warehouses outside. Although this time, although it created income for the association,
But it’s blocking other people’s business!
As a result, several warehouse owners who were unhappy were provoked, and several hired thugs were brought to the door to provoke...
Hearing this, Lao Yan and others behind Du Wei were stunned.
Go to...the headquarters of the Continental Knights Association to cause trouble?
Such a ridiculous thing actually happened?!
What is pitiful is that the few guys here are really no match for them. The four poor "knights" were all injured, or it was the old cripple Dov who later sneaked out to find the soldiers from the security station in the imperial capital.
Only then did we drive away the thugs who came to vandalize the place.
Du Wei swallowed hard and jumped away from this embarrassing matter. He quickly changed the subject and asked: "By the way, Mr. Delong, I would like to know more about the knighthood of 'Roland's Sword'.
thing……"
"Roland's Sword?" Deron smiled, pointed to the towering tower walls around him, and said loudly: "The headquarters of the Knights Association in the Imperial Capital, in the glorious era. There were always five hundred knights stationed here, and that is the Sword of Roland.
The French Knights. This knight was originally responsible for guarding the Spear of Longinus here. Unfortunately, since the broken spear was lost, the age of knights has declined. Now, the so-called Knights of the Sword of Roland no longer exist.
.I am the only one left... It has been like this for many generations. You see, it turns out that the Knights live in the building on the west side. It can accommodate five hundred people. There is also a stable in the back... In front of it is
The martial arts training ground. It’s a pity that even my teacher has never seen such a glorious and lively scene in his life.”
Du Wei pondered for a moment: "Since we have decided to rebuild the Knights Association, then the Knights of Roland's Sword, as the symbolic force of the Knights Association, will naturally also be rebuilt!" Du Wei paused and smiled: "You see. The church has
The Holy Knights and the Magic Guild have magician law enforcement teams, so our Knights Association can't have nothing."
"Okay! As long as you have money, I have no objection to anything." Delong said slyly.
Soon, several other guests Du Wei had made an appointment with finally arrived.
Delanshan Warcraft, Count Villa, and Deputy Minister of Military Affairs Camisillo took a carriage to the headquarters of the Knights Association. These three distinguished guests had just arrived and were shocked by the scene here. And
To be continued...
