Chapter 276 Black Court
“Gah!”
They stayed in the cave for the night, without even a sleeping bag. Bill, the Windblade Brown Bear, was the most comfortable quilt. Russell and Grove both slept on Bill’s body.
The unicorn Baoli stood in the cave, sleeping without her hooves touching the ground – the wind movement technique was already its instinct, and there was no need to actively cast the spell.
The dark dream came, and Xiao Menglong appeared in high spirits and pulled Baoli in.
“Okay, no more nonsense, let’s eat!” When everyone was gathered, Russell waved his chubby little hand.
The Youmeng family set off happily.
On the snowfields of the Ice Age, there were an extremely large number of snow ghosts, and they appeared out of nowhere. They would hunt and kill one group after another as if they were mowing grass. Not many days after the Battle of the Second Fall, the Snow Ghosts had recovered in sufficient numbers.
“It doesn’t matter where it comes from, just eat it and that’s it!”
Along the way, the little dream dragon ate happily. Although the ice beads were weak, the large number of snow ghosts could also increase the nutrients for the little dream dragon’s growth.
“The replenishment of snow ghosts is very fast, but the replenishment of snow demons is a bit slow.” Russell stroked his chin and thought about things, “No wonder humans speculate that snow ghosts are dead people pretending to be corpses, and there is an endless supply, while snow demons are visitors from other worlds. You need to cross the gate to another world to reach the snowfield.”
But he quickly shook his head: “That’s not necessarily the case. Maybe the snow ghosts are just infected by the power of ordinary snow demons, so they are like weeds. The snow demons are condensed from the essence, so the shaping time is slower.”
one way or another.
That night, Little Menglong failed to eat the Snow Demon’s Ice Soul Beads. Instead, he ate hundreds of Ice Soul Beads, and finally left with unsatisfied feelings.
……
The area of Heiting Mountain is almost the same as that of Youguang River Valley, but compared to the Youguang River Valley, which is nourished by rivers, the conditions of Heiting Mountain are worse.
It is mainly mountainous, the highest of which is Heiting Mountain.
The castle of the Tian Zicao family, Heiting Castle, is located on the hillside of Heiting Mountain. It is a dark castle that almost blends into the black Heiting Mountain behind it, so it is named Heiting, which means big black house. .
The Tian Zicao family has been cultivating Heiting Mountain for more than two hundred years.
After the communication, Russell was quickly warmly received by the Black Court Castle. The Black Court Baron Kuris Tianzicao was still in the Red Castle, so the Black Court Castle temporarily used his wife Quinty Sunflower as the hostess to receive Russell.
“Mrs. Quinty, Russell says hello to you.” Russell bowed and saluted.
Quinty Sunflower is the daughter of Swan Baron Quinbifu Shadowflame. She looks ordinary but has a very graceful temperament: “Hello Russell, you are such a young and handsome knight. By the way, isn’t your eldest brother Roland here?”
“Brother is busy with official duties and can’t get away for the time being.” Russell replied.
Mrs. Quinti asked in surprise: “Did he hold any important position? He is so busy with official duties?”
Behind Mrs. Quinty, Cooper Tian Zicao shouted softly: “Mother, Russell has come from afar, please come into the castle first and let him visit Rowling.”
After speaking, Cooper smiled and said: “Russell, your sister is too heavy now and is resting on the bed. I didn’t let her get up to greet you.”
“Sister’s body is important.” Russell smiled.
Then he followed Mrs. Quinty and her brother-in-law Cooper into Heiting Castle. A servant came forward and took the cloak and coat that Russell took off.
Then, under the leadership of Cooper, he entered the bedroom on the second floor and saw his sister Rowling lying on the bed.
“Russell!” As soon as Rowling saw Russell, a surprised smile appeared on her face. However, due to her pregnancy, she now looked a little swollen and gained a lot of weight. Her whole face looked very rich.
“Sister.” Russell stepped forward, walked to the bed, and held his sister Rowling’s hand.
“Are you the only one here? Where is Roland?” Rowling asked, and then ordered Cooper, “Hurry and prepare a room for my brother… This time when you come here, you must stay in Heiting Castle for a few more days, you know Yes, Russell!”
“Okay.” Russell nodded.
Russell looked at Rowling carefully and felt relieved when he saw that Rowling was just suffering from normal pregnancy swelling. Like most people, he was also worried that his sister would not be able to adapt in Heitingshan, or that she would be bullied by her parents-in-law.
But at least for now, it seems that the relationship between Cooper and Rowling is still very good, and this is enough.
“Roland stayed in the Red Castle to help his father handle official duties… Because of some things, my father had to go back to the territory. As you know, my father is the finance minister and there are too many official duties, so we can only let Roland help handle them. Otherwise, Roland will Came to visit you in person.”
“What’s going on in the territory? Is it important?” Rowling asked.
“It doesn’t matter, father will take care of it.” Russell didn’t want to say more and changed the subject, “By the way, sister, when is the due date?”
“The family doctor has diagnosed me, but I have to wait for another week.” Rowling gently stroked her bulging belly, “I hope he is a boy and can inherit my outstanding talents. If he is a girl, It’s better to look like you.”
When Russell heard this, he deliberately hummed: “What are you talking about? My talent is also very good, right? A sixteen-year-old Phantom Beast Knight is no worse than a genius.”
“Haha, you still want to deceive me about your talent?” Luo Lin mocked rudely, “That means you are lucky, the Shadow Flame Dragon is watching you… By the way, on the battlefield, the Shadow Flame Dragon really opened its eyes to look at you. Well, Cooper said he saw the Shadow Flame Dragon watching you with his own eyes!”
“Indeed.” Russell smiled.
“What a blind old dragon, why don’t you look at me!” Rowling rolled her eyes, “It’s really depressing that I couldn’t be promoted to Grand Knight before giving birth. I shouldn’t have gotten pregnant so early…Forget it, don’t look at me. Look at me, I hope the blind old dragon can look at the child in my belly.”
“Definitely.”
Rowling was still as bad-tempered as before, and her tone was not tactful at all: “How did you know it would happen? The Shadow Flame Dragon looked at you and you cheered up, Russell!”
“I’m really excited.”
“It seems I didn’t hit you enough before.”
After Cooper came back, Russell took out all the gifts from himself, Roland, and Mel, including gem jewelry, a gem sword, and the phantom egg of a long-tailed pheasant. The only thing missing was Russell’s bear bee—the bear bee. We have to wait for the warm season before sending it over.
“Have you two brothers made a fortune by giving me such a precious thing?” Luo Lin asked in surprise.
“Brother, I don’t know if he got rich, but I did.” Russell said with a smile, “Grandpa personally helped me promote Yulong cigars, and even used the help of Marquis Arnold to sell Yulong cigars to the Kingdom of Blazing Torrents ”
“Is cigars so profitable?”
“I can only say that I haven’t seen any profits yet, but there are already a lot of intended orders.” Russell then chatted with Cooper again, “Brother-in-law, are you interested in selling Yulong cigars in Heitingshan? You will be responsible for selling cigarettes, and I will Responsible for supply.”
Cooper smiled and said: “Okay, I am also very interested in Yulong cigars, but unfortunately I have only smoked one until now. I smoked it at the mouth of the Sancha River.”
“As soon as the ice age is over, I will send a batch of Yulong cigars, and you will help me sell them. In addition, Heitingshan cannot allow others to sell counterfeit cigars. This is my exclusive business, sister and brother-in-law.”
Rowling directly affirmed: “Whoever dares to sell counterfeit cigars, let your brother-in-law bring people to kill him!”
Cooper said warmly: “Don’t worry Russell, Heitingshan only sells your Yulong cigars.”
In this way, Youguang River Valley, Sanchahekou, and Heiting Mountain will basically only sell Yulong cigars; if you contact your aunt Luo Bi, Golden Fields will only sell Yulong cigars; wait for Roland to get married with the Lotus japonicus family. , Populus euphratica desert definitely only sells Yulong cigars.
In this way, if most nobles only recognize Yulong cigars, even if there are counterfeit cigars elsewhere, no knights will recognize them.
At most, they are sold as ordinary cigarettes.
Only Yulong cigars can represent the life of a knight. Only by smoking Yulong cigars can you taste the life of a knight.
“My younger brother is a good hand in business.” Rowling walked out of the bed, with a big belly, patted Russell on the shoulder, and joked, “Come to our Heitingshan caravan and become a caravan manager, you will definitely More than enough.”
