161 Undercurrent

At night, in the Andasokya family's dungeon, except for the moonlight coming through the narrow gap, there was no other light in the air with the smell of hay rotting. Occasionally, mice ran past the corners and made squeaking screams.

More than three hours ago, Ferrero was locked up here by his angry father. He sat on the pile of hay and looked up at the moon through the high window. Although this was beyond his expectations, he was not in a hurry. His younger brother offended the Soul Thinker Association and broke his legs. As long as his father did not have a brain in water, he would never let his younger brother become the heir of the family.

So Ferrero waited for his father to calm down and then let him go

He never understood that no matter how good his academic etiquette was, he was above his younger brother, but why did his father prefer his younger brother more, but he treated himself like a cow and horse. When he was a child, no matter how good his academic etiquette was, his father never praised him. As long as he made a little mistake occasionally, the stick would hit him on the back. When his younger brother played everywhere, he was ignorant, and his father would not be angry. Sometimes he had a little bit of motivation to improve, and his father would be so happy when he saw it.

Such different treatment has always made him very dissatisfied, but as his elder brother, he endured it and passed by. What he couldn't accept the most was why after he put so much effort into the family, his father intended to make his younger brother the family heir... Why!

So after his father went out, he found a way to get his younger brother disabled, and then he succeeded

The stomach was croaking, but Ferrero didn't care. He began to plan future things. When he inherited the position of patriarch, the first thing he had to do was to distribute his younger brother to a farther place. However, after all, his younger brother would not kill him. Next, he recruited migrant workers, paved the roads outside the city, and widened him. He once heard a soul-thinking person say to guard: If you want to be rich, build the road first.

Things flashed through his mind... Not long after, he felt a stinging pain in his brain

Shaking his head hard, he smiled happily

Not long after, a sound came from outside the door, followed by a dim light coming from the corner. A middle-aged man in black noble clothes walked over with an oil lamp. In his other hand, he held a wooden stick as thick as an arm.

Ferrero stood up: "Father!"

Abdullah put the oil lamp on the ground and opened the prison door with the key

"Kneel down" Abdullah said slowly

Ferrero knelt down as he said, Abdullah raised his stick and knocked it hard on the former's back

Ferrero collapsed on the ground all of a sudden, and his whole body was curled up in a ball of difficulty and gasped.

"Do you know why I hit you?" Abdullah hit his calves with another stick: "You are the eldest son, and you will inherit this family. Sovra is your younger brother. I will definitely get points outside in the future. I have been strict with you since I was a child, just to make you a qualified heir and spoil your younger brother because he has nothing in the future. He can only compensate him as much as possible. As the eldest brother, you actually designed to make your younger brother look like this. Do you still have the brother's affection?"

Another stick was knocked, and Ferrero's whole body twitched again

It took him a long time to recover and defend himself with difficulty: "If my father just spoiled him, I would naturally not have any complaints, but the position of the heir of this family belongs to me, and I can only do it. If I hand it over to my younger brother, the whole family will be over in the future. Dad, don't you understand?"

Abdullah frowned: "Bastard, who told me to let Sovra inherit the family?"

After hearing this, Ferrero also knew that something seemed wrong: "It's Bo He..."

"Damn it," Abdullah's face changed drastically. He cursed that Hebbe was the old housekeeper who had served Ansordakya for more than 40 years and was also his trusted confidant. If he spread the rumors that he wanted to make Sovra the heir, it would not be surprising that Ferrero believed it.

Before Abdullah, he was anxious to take people to negotiate with the association, and then came to teach Ferrero a lesson. He didn't notice that he had been back for several hours, but he had never seen the figure of Hebo at all. If it were usual, he had been standing by his side, and this matter was always in an atmosphere of something wrong.

"Don't pretend to be dead, get up quickly." Abdullah threw away the stick and picked up the oil lamp again: "We may be in trouble."

After last night, Chen Xiansong spent a day and a half to read Udir's gift book seriously. It seemed that if he had gained something, he took the time to complete the simple assembly line in Adrian's factory and then gave it to the other party, which almost made Adrian feel so happy that he was about to faint.

Since most of the matter has been resolved and the morning has been put on for too long, Udir decided to continue to set off to the royal city Fatty boy took a few students and sent them out of the city gate.

Looking at the carriage that was leaving, Casar asked, "Teacher, did you let them go like that? We don't seem to have completed what the president told me."

"Forget it, I'm thankful for that boy. Now there is a large piece of land in the association. Just dealing with the receiving problem makes me so busy that my back and back hurt. Then I will take care of this matter if I have time." Leonardo smiled: "No matter what, our association has achieved great benefits. Chen Xiansong has no credit and hard work. Let's do it first. His affairs will be handled by the president himself."

Chen Xiansong sat in the carriage and continued to use his thoughts to "melvet" the evil stones, and continued to create his "Odin's sacred garment"

As a maid, Ruth naturally followed Chen Xiansong, but she sat in another carriage and was in the same carriage as Catherine.

Ruth lifted the curtain and looked at the city wall that was getting farther and farther behind. She stood her two sisters silently on the city wall. And... Her father Adrian didn't retract and sit in the car until the wall was lost. Catherine came over, patted her back gently, and handed over a silk parsley.

"Thank you" Ruth took the silk palette and wiped away her tears

"Don't be sad, big sister." Frances, who was sitting not far away, also comforted: "I can guarantee that the teacher is a good person and will never let you suffer any grievances."

Ruth nodded, she naturally believed this

This time, due to the lesson of being assassinated in Qingxi City, Udirdo hired a mercenary team, and with the mercenaries such as Aslan who guarded Chen Xiansong, the entire team had hundreds of people. The swords and swords were shining between people, and the evil spirits were extremely strong. When merchants saw this situation, they all avoided it, for fear of getting into trouble.

Because there is not much time to register at the royal city, Udir decided to speed up his journey and never settle down when passing through the small village town. Because those places are ordinary and remote and not safe, they will stop and rest only when they arrive in a big city. This speed makes the mercenaries walking with their feet very tired. However, Udir is very good at being a human being and increases the commission twice as much, which makes the guards look like they are looking at their biological fathers.

After several days of continuous journey, the royal city was already far away, and at most it would be two days to arrive. There were five days left before the time limit for reporting to the association headquarters, which was more than enough. Udir finally relaxed and decided to rest in the city where he is now.

The city is called "Di Yu". Its original name has been forgotten by the world. Hundreds of years ago, the king of Kate Kingdom had just succeeded to the throne. He inspected the country. When he passed the people of this city, he was assassinated by spies who did not know the country's power... The city was named after this. After that, the royal family of Kate Kingdom never played the political trick of "private visits" again.

The president of the Imperial City Association is called 'Thierry Henry'. He is a middle-aged man with short-haired corn hair. He looks ordinary but may have been in high positions for a long time, so he has good power. The three male students under his sect acted neither cold nor hot when welcoming Udir, nor did they flatter them too much, nor did they deliberately ignore them.

However, he was very interested in Chen Xiansong. At the welcoming banquet, he frequently paid attention to Chen Xiansong's actions.

When the banquet ended, Thier came to find Chen Xiansong in person. After a polite remark, he took out a drawing. When Chen Xiansong saw that it was a structural diagram of the water wheel.

"Your Excellency" Thierl did not care that Chen Xiansong was too young, but seemed to regard him as an equal person: "I am in some trouble now... This is the drawings given to me by the association. When building the physical objects, I doubled them in proportion. It was normal at first, but in less than two months, all the water trucks were destroyed... I used to be a problem with the materials at first, and then strengthened the quality of the materials. In this way, the water truck lasted for an extra month before it was destroyed. This time I thoroughly checked the cause of the accident of the water truck and found that the shaft was broken. I thickened the shaft, but found that the rotation of the water truck was obviously slowed down... and after three months, the shaft was still broken."

Thier said helplessly: "I don't have a lot of knowledge about this. As the maker of waterwheels, I think you should have a way to solve the problem that our city needs large waterwheels. If you can solve this problem, we will be grateful."

"Can I go and have a look tomorrow?" Chen Xiansong didn't dare to draw conclusions without seeing the real thing, actually he was already worried. Thinking that there was still some time before he could report to the royal city, he agreed.

"That's the best." Thierl seemed very happy. The two chatted a few more casually. When they left, Thierl seemed to remember it accidentally: "By the way, you, I want to remind you that when you report to the royal city, be careful not to let the fourth prince see your maid. He is very lustful and a silly and bold. Although the association is not afraid of the royal family, I don't think you want to be troubled."
