Chapter 69: Come to the door

Xingke gently tapped with his hand, and the magic lamp immediately lit up. Xingjian tapped with his hand, and the light disappeared.

"It's really amazing..." The two sisters lay on the bed, chattering and discussing, carefully studying this magical prop. This wonderful lamp comes from the church - in fact, many people have seen or heard of this kind of thing, but only the real nobles can put such a thing in their homes.

This is one of the things that Dicks sent to pay off his debts, a treasure passed down from their family. Two days ago, Sir Dicks returned from a trip, and then he knew nothing about this year's Jockey Club - his "Swift" who was originally impossible to play at all, won the championship under the riding of Ashu Rufate.

Thinking that he was deceived, Dix came to the door angrily and asked for guilt. The two men sat in the secret room and spoke for a long time. Several times they were so loud that the two sisters outside could hear it clearly. But in the end, there was a compromise - Dix used a piece of real estate, several treasures from his ancestors, plus about 6,000 Jin'erly's cash to repurchase "Swift".

"It's really incredible." Xingke tapped the magic lamp with his hand again, and the lamp immediately lit up, illuminating the whole room very brightly, like daytime. Although the two sisters were not as old as "girls", they are now as happy as the little girl. "One day we will see this lamp." She sighed a little. When they were in the church academy, they had come into contact with this lamp more than once. But they were definitely not as good as they are now, and they put such precious items beside the bed to enjoy. Only high-level priests could use this item.

This kind of lamp was made by the church - but now, I am afraid the supreme archbishop doesn't know how this thing was made. You know, since the city of Oren was captured and severely damaged, many secret craftsmanship of the church have been lost. However, the two sisters knew that this statement was not true. There had never been -- or never -- craftsmen who would make these strange objects before Oren was destroyed. No one could tell the origin of these things clearly, as if they had fallen from the sky. At that time, the church had many such precious objects, which were used as a favorable weapon for preaching and expanding its influence, and melted a lot of "ice". But as time went by, fewer and fewer such things could be circulated on the market.

"It's really bright." Xingjian said. The brightness of the magic lamp is not comparable to that of a candle. If you stare at it for too long, it will even make people's eyes dizzy.

The noise came from outside the window. The two sisters looked at each other, walked to the window and looked out. They saw a four-wheeled carriage at first sight - this car was very familiar to them, and it was Ais's.

At this moment, Ess had already walked out of the carriage. Not only that, she also saw the two sisters standing at the window, raising their hands to say hello to them.

In this case, the two sisters had no second choice at all. A little later, Ess came to the castle. The two sisters took Ess around the entire castle in the posture of their master. This is not so much a need, but rather a habit, because women like Ess who like to communicate will never come to this castle once or twice.

"Oh, it's really great." After the two sisters introduced it, Ess praised the castle - 99% of these praises are true, because this castle is indeed one of the best residences in the area of ​​Brassian, and is completely worthy of these praises.

"By the way, where is your fiancé...Ash Rufate?" Ash returned to the living room and watched from side to side. After entering the door for so long, she only saw two sisters and two.

"He went to Wallonia." Xingke replied. "In order to register the transaction of the castle and real estate transfer, even we have become cautious since the incident... He has been leaving for several days."

"He's gone?" Eis's face changed, and he looked mysterious and mysterious. "Do you really don't know or pretend not to know?"

"What do you know?" the two sisters looked at each other and replied.

"There is a rumor in the city... Do you know the accident at the previous horse racing party?" asked Eis.

Of course the two sisters knew about this. Io died in this accident, and the sheriff Falaud also died in this accident.

"We know...what's wrong?"

"Dear Katyuya, among the dead, is your cousin Io. He went back to his hometown and happened to catch up with the spring horse racing, but he did not expect to be hit by this accident."

Xing Ke's mouth curled disdainfully, and she was very upset when she mentioned the name of Io - although Io was dead.

"So... is that statement true?" Seeing Xingke's expression, Esse not only did not restrain herself, but instead looked radiant. A gossip topic was verified, and for her it was like taking a bite of stimulant.

"What's the saying?"

"Io is back to compete with you for Allenster's inheritance." Eis's eyes were almost glowing. "He probably lacked money, so he came back despite the danger of his reputation and raised doubts about the inheritance. With Allenster's only son, he asked to be given half of your manor..."

"That's it." Xing Ke sighed. This matter was really exposed - this is not worth surprising. What is really surprising is that it took so long to be exposed.

"Is this true?" Eis's eyes widened.

"It's true." Xingke replied. Eis's expression made her feel some ominous sign. "What kind of rumors did you just say... what kind of rumors?"

"The rumors about Ethrufate killing Io and his gang of companions were killed because of accidental presence, so sheriff Falod was killed and silenced." Eth said. It must be said that although the two sisters were a little mentally prepared, when Eth said such words, both of them could not help but look at each other.

"What are you talking about... This is too outrageous. I remember saying that there were about ten dead people, and they were to hunt fully armed people. How could Ashu Rufate do it alone?" Xing Ke asked back. But she was evaluating Ashu Rufate's force in her heart. Then she realized that it was not too difficult for Ashu Rufate to do such a thing. As long as the conditions were right, killing more than ten people was no problem for him.

"Sure enough, you don't know..." Ais looked like "as expected."

"There is always evidence of such an outrageous rumor? Also, why did Ashu Rufate do this?"

The two sisters were not panicked about the evidence. After all, this was just a rumor. If it had any reliable evidence, it was not Ais who liked to spread rumors, but a whole team of soldiers who were coming to arrest people.

"Evidence... Hum... I wonder if you have heard that everyone who died accidentally, including Io, was carrying muskets."

"That's even more impossible to be killed." Xing Ke replied. Everyone knows what a musket is - to be honest, a musket is simply the terminator of fighting skills. Even an ordinary person who has never touched a weapon before, as long as he holds a musket in his hand, he can easily put a warrior with excellent combat skills to the ground. No matter how powerful a person is, he is still as powerful as a musket bullet - with your courage, you can't get a bullet pierce.

On the battlefield, even the invincible Knights' legion wearing heavy armor would suffer heavy casualties under the shooting of the musket team.

"But, among the bodies dug out, everyone's muskets were empty," said Eis. "Although on the surface, they just had bad luck and encountered a landslide. But in fact, they encountered a battle before they died... so they shot with muskets. And some of them said that the injuries of those corpses were a bit strange, and some really didn't seem to be caused by falling off a cliff."

"But why is this related to Ashu Rufate?" Xingjian asked back.

"Of course it's because of what we said just now." Eis's eyes lit up, "Of course he killed them for that. A man is so arrogant when he attacks his beloved woman!"

"He didn't have to do this at all." Xingjian sighed. "You forgot that he had won the horse racing by then, and there was no need to take this risk."

"Oh, my dear, wealth is touching. It's normal to die a few people with 10,000 gold coins."

"Even if you want to kill someone, you can't choose that kind of time. If Io is assassinated by someone on the roadside one day, it's worth considering." The two sisters and Eis actually have a good relationship, so they are of course very familiar with Eis's character. In order to avoid misunderstandings, Xingke quickly gave a further explanation and told her the whole process of the matter.

"So that's how it is..." After hearing the whole story, Eis' gossiping heart dimmed most, and there was a clear look of disappointment on her face.

"Oh, by the way, how much does this castle cost? I remember the price offered by Dell Knights was 11,000..." Eis was not a person who was dejected because of a gossip being overturned, she turned her attention to something else.

"In fact, it's more than this." Xingke introduced. "Because some furniture, collections and wine in the wine cellar are all calculated extra. Ashu Rufate felt it was good and didn't want to change it, so he ended up using about 13,000." She said in a slightly proud tone.

"Oh, by the way." Ace showed an ambiguous smile on her face. "How are you doing now?"

When she said this, she had already left the living room and began to carefully look at the entire living area of ​​her master, accompanied by her two sisters.

"How about what?" Xing Ke felt a heat on his face, but he tried hard to pretend that he didn't understand anything.

"Of course it's you two... Hey, is this the master bedroom?"
