After receiving the news, Shao Dianluan came out with his son in his arms, saying that he wanted to make money and suck every drop of his blood. Naturally, Ding Kui treated them equally and cared for both siblings equally.
"You have Shao Dianshang secretly protecting you, what are you afraid of?" Ding Kui teased his wife.
"Uncle Shang is gone. From now on, you have to take better care of your children. You can't always rely on others." Shao Dianluan scolded her husband in turn.
"Ah? Gone? Why? Did the clan force him?" Ding Kui showed signs of attack.
"No, I heard it has something to do with the higher ups." Shaodian Luan pointed to the sky. With her status, she does not need to point to the sky even if she is a king. This shows that the level of "the higher ups" is very high.
"Oh!" Ding Kui understood immediately, "Can Uncle Shang get in touch with it? The combat power level is much different." He immediately thought of the Human League.
"I don't know. Anyway, that's what he said. It seems like something big has happened. The ancestors have issued a decree. I don't know the specific content."
Shao Dianshang spoke vaguely when he left, and Shao Dianluan didn't know much about him.
"It involves our ancestors, well, let's not talk about it." Ding Kui wisely ended the topic, "I will have to work hard for Grandpa Kun in the future. Fortunately, I have Cha to enshrine him. Now there are more places where he can be used."
He originally did not consider using Cha Yang to protect the wives and concubines in the back house. The family's high-end combat power was sufficient, but now the sudden reduction of one would highlight the role of the new chief minister.
"I've almost never seen him," Shao Dian Luan complained, "and the servants assigned to him rarely see him."
"Don't bother him with this! Now is the critical moment for his breakthrough. I really want to see what the peak of a warrior is like, and Zha Gongfeng should be the closest person." Ding Kui immediately advised his wife.
Whether Cha Yang can be seen or not is not important at all. The key is to improve the combat power of the chief minister. The validity period is ten years. It doesn't matter if you lose some time in the front. You can make up for it after one appearance.
"Listen to you, where will Wangcai live?" Shao Dianluan rarely gets close to intermediate-level monsters. The last time he went to Zhuoshui Town to help the defense line, Ding Kui complained for a long time.
She was very curious when she saw the python-tailed jaguar this time, and took the initiative to arrange food and accommodation for Wangcai.
"It likes a cool place, so just find a room next to the ice cellar. From now on, we will regularly arrange for people to take it into the swamp to hunt for low-level water monsters. Be careful not to take it to bully Zhui Ri."
"Hey, are you afraid of chasing the sun?" Shao Dianluan asked knowingly, "It's so prosperous! From now on, follow me and I'll guarantee you a good life." Ding Kui regretted it.
Since then, the Earl's Mansion has had a guard leopard.
At first, Wangcai stayed in his new nest, unwilling to come out and face the moving people and objects everywhere. The living environment was so different from his previous one that he was not used to it.
Later, Ding Kui forcibly took it for a walk on the streets. After scaring several children and women to tears, it gradually became familiar to the people of Juyang City and gradually got used to the new environment.
It won't run around unless there is no one to lead it. At most, it will run to the gate and lie down in front of it to watch the people coming and going. This can also be seen as a territorial declaration, indicating that the Earl's Mansion is its territory.
It has visited most of the places in the house, but there are a few places that it dare not approach. The instinct of the monster tells it that there are very scary people and advanced races in those places, who can kill it at any time.
The new favorite failed to bring joy to the Earl's Mansion. He Laizi's coffin was transported back to the mansion that night. Long Yan came forward to organize the funeral for the He family. This was the result of He Xingyun's insistence. He said to Ding Kui: "My father values the respect of superiors and subordinates most.
Damn it, if I step in to take care of this, it will make my father’s soul in the eternal temple uneasy.”
After all, Long Yan had stayed in the Hou Mansion as the mistress for a period of time, so it would not be too grand for her to come forward, and it was enough to show that Ding Kui valued the He family.
Many of the old marquis's old men tried their best to come back, so why did the cripple see him off? Even Quan Wanyun came back for the funeral on his father's behalf. There were fewer and fewer old people of Ding Dao's generation. They were seeing off their old friends and themselves.
"Why don't you go to your country and take He Guangsheng with you this time?" Shao Dianluan suggested.
He Guangsheng is sixteen years old this year and has been promoted to the Fighting Blade Knight. He is considered the eldest disciple of Feng Liang, the nephew of Ding Kui, the disciple of Lu Ji, and the head of the three generations of disciples of the Invisible Sword Sect. His strength is average, but his background is profound and he is a giant.
One of the famous young people in Yangcheng.
"Don't let the He family get involved in right and wrong. Although the troublemakers from the Long family are gone, there are still many eyes staring at you and Long Yan. Fortunately, the Yun father and son are loyal and honest, and they can't tell the difference between others and them.
the goal of.
Promoting He Guangsheng at this time may not be a good thing for the He family. The environment in our country is much more dangerous than here. You and I can't even protect ourselves. The child can't withstand the storm, so I won't take him with him this time." Ding Kui was cautious.
After thinking about it, I declined.
"He Guangsheng is a child, but Ding Fen is not? How do you know Ding Fen can withstand the storm?" Shao Dianluan insisted.
"What's wrong with Xiaohua? When her family was orphaned and widowed, Shu Qin was ill. Xiaohua, who was less than eight years old, went to sell on the street. The stall was opened next to the Lu's Chamber of Commerce. She had been very smart since she was a child.
I have never seen anyone who can make a small fortune, but many people were deceived by her dull appearance. I sold her to my country, and she could go home safely, and maybe she could go faster than us." Ding
Kui spoke highly of Ding Fen.
"Ha begging!"
Ding Fen's sneeze startled Wangcai, and the black panther stood upright, looking around vigilantly.
She touched the black panther's neck and said: "It's okay, I didn't catch a cold. I can take you to the Everglades on time tomorrow. Don't worry! If I don't starve you, I'll spend money to buy monsters for you to eat. Master, seeing how serious and responsible I am, I will definitely do it."
Reward me." He habitually thought about Ding Kui's reward.
"Hululu." Wangcai shook the hair on his body and lay down again.
"Cats, cats are talented." The most unscrupulous little ancestor in the house came.
Whoosh, Wangcai next to Ding Fen moved after hearing the sound, and came to Jingjing's side after a few ups and downs. "Snake?" Jingjing looked behind Wangcai.
Wangcai had no choice but to throw the python's tail in front of Jingjing to be kneaded.
This little girl has the coercion of the Dragon God. Even if Ding Kui didn't say Black Panther, he wouldn't dare to hurt her, even if he wanted to, the protective shield of the dragon egg fragments could withstand its attack.
For some reason, Jingjing likes to knead the python's tail the most. After all, the black panther's python's tail is not a real python. The tail is warm and soft, and most children like it.
Wangcai was generally not allowed to be ridden, but Jingjing was an exception because Ding Kui had given him permission. She could even ride Wangcai for a walk, but after being scolded by Ding Kui once, Wangcai did not dare to take Jingjing out again.
"Mao Cai, let's go." Jingjing climbed on the leopard's back and wanted to go out for a walk, but Wangcai ran out of the door with her on his back, then turned sharply and jumped onto the outer wall, using all four limbs to climb up.
The Earl's Mansion has been built into a fortress. The outer perimeter is no longer a wall several meters high, but a fortress wall dozens of meters high with fortifications on top. The python-tailed jaguar can climb over mountains and ridges, often running on cliffs and climbing cliffs.
Climbing up and down forts is a piece of cake.
Riding a leopard to climb the wall was more exciting than riding a sled on a slide. The little girl started babbling and yelling, very excited. Because of the protection of the python's tail, she didn't have to worry about falling off and sat firmly on the leopard's back.
"What? Wangcai carried Jingjing and climbed to the roof?" Ding Kui quickly received the report from the servant.
"Nonsense!" Shaodian Luan stood up and went out to take a look.
"Okay, nothing will happen. There are so many guards in the house watching, and there is also that one here. Wangcai comes from the Hengduan Mountains, and it is normal to climb high and low. If you are worried, don't let Yuanyuan play with Wangcai in the future.
"Although Ding Kui said this, he still went to the front yard mentally.
The front door of the front yard of the Earl's Palace is the most heavily guarded place. There is a group of guards on duty 24 hours a day. It seems that there are not many people visible from the outside. If there is an attack, a large number of people will appear.
"That won't work! Wangcai is also a level five monster. Yuanyuan can take it with him to play with in the future, and it has great safety guarantee."
Shao Dian Luan now knows how powerful the python-tailed swift leopard is, and can easily deal with several fifth-level combat power assassins. Very few of the sixth-level combat power warriors in the world are willing to lower their identities and attack children, so it is guaranteed that there will be no fifth-level combat power warriors.
It's very safe if you're close to the source.
"What about Jingjing?"
"Jingjing will get married sooner or later, and the Jiang family will pick her up when the time comes. When she leaves, Wangcai will be Yuanyuan's alone."
"What about other children in the future?"
"I don't care, you can find another magic pet." Young Dian Luan was full of motherly nature.
"You think Warcraft is just cabbage on the roadside."
"What is cabbage on the roadside?"
"Well, there are a lot of white, edible vegetables on the roadside."
"..."
It was already the end of July, and there was not much time left for Ding Kui.
Juyang City is thousands of kilometers away from Shouyang City. If he wants to reach the capital of his country before the end of October, he has to leave more than two months in advance. Because when he goes, it will not only be him, Shaodian Luan and a limited number of followers, but also
Bring lots of gifts.
A birthday gift given to a queen is very particular. It must contain a certain proportion of living things, which means that the recipient of the gift has unlimited vitality and a long life. Those living things cannot be collected into the space ring.
Ding Kui prepared a group of cattle and horses for Shao Dianrong, as well as rare insects and birds from the northern part of the Great Swamp, and the specialty of his hometown - grass mud horses.
"Cha Zongfeng." He walked into the courtyard where Cha Yang lived for the first time.
Yea, the door of the main room in the courtyard opened, and Cha Yang walked out with a glowing face.
The servants working in the yard were surprised. The door had not been opened for a long time. If they hadn't cleaned it every day, the door would have been covered with dust, but the people inside were so energetic.
"Master Ding, please come and sit in the room." As soon as Cha Yang finished speaking, an embarrassed expression appeared on his face.
He has been in seclusion for at least half a month. His mental outlook is fine, but the hygiene in the house is not that good.
"Haha, it's okay, just sit in the yard." Ding Kui guessed something.
The yard is not small. There is enough space for Cha Yang to move around in the front yard. There are stone benches and tables on the side, as well as a small winding fish pond.
The two sat down around the stone table. Cha Yang asked, "Master Ding, what do you want from me?"
