Chapter 9 The heir to the downtrodden hotel and the noble son of a wealthy family
Then here comes the problem.
Several victims in Rose Mansion were injured after praying in their rooms at midnight... First of all, someone needs to pray during this time, right?
Who will pray?
Nan Xiaonan didn't ask this question out loud... of course it couldn't be the trio in their store.
Not counting herself as a fake, the destiny system is all fake... As for the maid, to be honest, if this maid was asked to pray to the boss, she would probably do it without thinking?
As for the boss... She was afraid that the Kingdom of Holy Light wouldn't be able to handle it if she asked the [Indescribable Existence] to pray.
"Don't look at me." Mr. Assass said suddenly: "I can't pray."
Clary also raised her hand nervously and whispered: "Me too..."
You two stowaways!
Nan Xiaonan rolled her eyes... She had to temporarily shut down the dv. Unexpectedly, Nan Xiaonan's Women's Event Book could no longer be filmed just after it started.
"How about, instead of praying for now, let's just wait here for time to pass and see if anything unusual happens?" Mr. Asaches suggested.
At this moment, jingle, jingle, jingle, jingle!
This is not the midnight bell, the bell has sounded before.
This was the sound of the doorbell. The maid Clary in the room was immediately startled. The sudden ringing of the doorbell at this time really scared her...
"Is Mr. Asaches here? I am..."
In the quiet night, a man's voice came from outside the house... After hearing this, Mr. Asaches couldn't help but frowned, with a look of confusion on his face: "Lord Durand? He would do that at this time?"
Asaches looked at the people in the room with confusion, then walked to the window and looked down, and found that not only the car of the city lord Durand was coming outside, but there was even...
"Why is this guy Ludik here too?"
…
…
"Order within a time limit, please kiss the saint...purify with the holy light?!"
"Oh? Are you going to investigate the source of the strangeness in the mansion? Just because you are a piece of mud who doesn't want to make progress and can't hold up the wall?"
In the lobby of [Rose Mansion], Asaches and Ludik glared at each other. The smell of gunpowder seemed to be permeating the air, giving people the impression that they were almost squeezing each other's necks.
"These two... have a grudge?" Nan Xiaonan couldn't help but quietly asked the maid Ke Kelili.
Clary also said quietly: "The boss and the principal are actually distant relatives. I heard that the boss was fostered in the principal's home for a period of time when he was a child... A lot of things seemed to have happened in the meantime."
Nan Xiaonan looked at the two people confronting each other in front of him suspiciously... The heir of a poor hotel and the noble son of a wealthy family fell in love and killed each other when they were young?
Male on top of male?
emmmmm...it tastes a bit like that!
But the air suddenly became quiet... Mr. Azashes's face was frighteningly calm now, as if it were ice, and his whole body exuded a cold aura.
Nan Xiaonan glanced at it, and then asked in a low voice: "What is holy light purification?"
Clary glanced at Nan Xiaonan in surprise, but still briefly introduced the meaning of holy light purification with a worried look on her face.
"Destroyed to ashes and razed to the ground? Isn't this a nuclear war??" Nan Xiaonan was suddenly shocked.
To say that her home will be razed at any time, her complexion will only be worse than Asaches... But the future landlady's expression seems to be much colder now?
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Nan Xiaonan even saw a flash of murderous intent on the maid's pretty face.
She couldn't help but shudder... her soul was trembling.
…
"Mr. Asaches, in addition to informing you about this matter, the most important thing I came here this time is that I hope to be able to help you."
Lord Durand had to stand up and speak at this time, "Although it was the saint who decided to purify the holy light in the end, the saint still gave you a week because of his mercy. It would be a pity if the Rose Mansion was purified. So this week
I will give you the maximum amount of support...I think, by gathering everyone’s strength, we will definitely be able to overcome the difficulties!”
"Thank you." Asaches nodded, his face looking better now.
Lord Durand then looked at Boss Luo and the others, "By the way, these are... Mr. Asaches, are you the people you invited to investigate the mansion?"
Asaches said: "They are enthusiastic residents of the mansion. After knowing my difficulties, they took the initiative to help me."
"That's it." City Lord Durand nodded, and immediately didn't care much about the three residents.
The Rose Mansion has been open for so many years and has been in the hands of so many generations. Asaches has also been in charge of it for a long time. It is not surprising that such a close friend would lend a helping hand.
"Lord City Lord, do you really want to help?" Mr. Asaches suddenly said at this time.
"That's what you said." City Lord Durand suddenly said displeased: "If I didn't have this intention, I wouldn't have come to you so late. I could have issued a document early tomorrow morning and asked the people from the Public Security Department to issue it to you.
.”
Asaches didn't waste any time and said directly: "Okay, then come and help! We just want to do an experiment and we are still short of people. You are here just in time."
"What does it mean exactly?" Principal Ludick frowned, he was too familiar with this distant relative's behavior pattern.
"We need some people to pray in the room where the accident occurred for observation." Asaxes said directly: "But we need people with high levels of divine support, and you are just high enough... Don't you need to say it, Lord City Lord?"
He is almost a [Saint]. As for Livar, the level of petitioners has climbed one or two levels in recent years, right?"
"You want me to... let me pray in those rooms?" City Lord Durand couldn't help but frown.
"It's just an observation test." Asaxes said: "Aren't you the one who came to help? Besides, there were petitioners from the Public Security Department praying here before, and nothing happened. City Lord, your petitioner level is
Full, what are you afraid of? Even if you drop one or two levels, you are still young and you can still rise up in the future, right? Anyway, the number of [Saints] is limited, and there are so many top petitioners in front of you.
It's your turn, why are you in a hurry?"
Principal Ludick held back his laughter.
Asaxes looked at Ludik and said: "And you, after so many years, you are still only a fifth-class godly descendant. If you drop it, just drop it to avoid embarrassment!"
Principal Ludick rolled his eyes.
I thought that this was Asaches's attempt to make things difficult for him, that Principal Ludick would rise up and City Lord Durand would throw up his sleeves and walk away... Unexpectedly, City Lord Durand actually gritted his teeth at this time and said, "Okay, I promise you!"
"For the sake of relatives, how can I not help?" Principal Ludick also said with a smile at this time.
Holy man, what bad idea are they planning?
Asaxes couldn't help but wonder, these two people were not easy to talk to... He never thought that these two people would readily agree, but simply used this as a reason to exclude guests.
…
The candidate was decided in this way.
Campus Principal Ludick, Livar, Lord Durand and his male assistant, they happened to be four people, and they happened to correspond to the four rooms in the Rose Mansion where strange things happened.
"We will also assign four people here to observe the whole process." Asaches said calmly: "City Lord Durand, actually you should think about it. With your status, you can just order casually and deploy several high-level petitioners.
It’s a simple thing to come here.”
City Lord Durand shook his head and said: "The Saint gave me the power to govern the Holy City, not so that I can call for a shield when danger comes."
Mr. Assass breathed a sigh of relief, "You, a quasi-Saint, are not worthy of your name... Then let's make this arrangement. I will personally observe Ludik's side."
The candidate was decided quickly.
Mr. Asaches corresponded to the principal of the campus, Ludik. As for Clary, she went to the room on the far left side of the mansion with the city lord's assistant. Nan Xiaonan took the dv and went to another room with Livar.
"If you don't mind, let us observe you, Mr. Durand." Boss Luo saw that he and the maid were the only ones left, and then said directly to the Lord Durand.
"Well." Durand nodded. He was not arrogant as a city lord, but very peaceful. "Then I'll bother you two...Although I am the city lord, before I became the city lord, I was also a believer.
It’s the same, there’s no difference.”
Boss Luo said: "If Mr. Durand can become the Lord of the [Free City], he must be very important to the Saint. I think it must be because of your special piety, sir. No wonder Mr. Asaxes would say that you are a quasi [Saint]."
.”
In fact, Lord Durand doesn't look very old... he is probably about the same age as the campus principal, Mr. Asaches, so he can be considered young and promising.
"I just have some experience in handling chores." Lord Durand shook his head: "If I were talented enough and pious enough, I should become an ascetic monk."
At this time, the maid whispered in Boss Luo's ear: "I'll prepare some tea."
Boss Luo nodded, then looked at City Lord Durand and said, "Then let's get started, Mr. Durand."
City Lord Durand did not hesitate. He knelt down on one knee directly on the cushion in front of the window, lowered his head and prayed... This is probably the architectural style of the Kingdom of Holy Light. Almost all living rooms will be designed to facilitate people to pray.
Boss Luo sat down on the side.
It is not unreasonable for Lord Durand to become a quasi [Saint]. In just a few seconds, his entire spiritual world began to condense, and his body exuded a rich brilliance.
That is the brilliance of willpower.
In Boss Luo's vision, Durand at this time was like a beacon in the dark night... The light gradually became brighter and brighter.
"Faith can make people firm. This is true." Boss Luo chuckled casually and whispered: "It is much purer than the effects of drugs."
In fact, purely from the perspective of soul quality, the soul quality of the Durand City Lord is already extremely high... but Boss Luo's vision is not what it used to be.
It's not a question of whether his vision is high or not, but whether he is interested or not.
"High-quality assembly line production model..."
…
…
Ludick took off his coat and threw it on the bed in the room casually, then took out two bottles of beer from the small refrigerator in the room, and found a deck of playing cards in the drawer.
He raised the playing cards in his hand, looked at Asaches in front of the door, smiled and said, "How many games are there?"
"Aren't you here to pray?" Asaches said expressionlessly.
"We can pray while playing cards." Principal Ludick said with a smile: "As long as we have faith in our hearts, we can pray to the gods in our hearts whenever we do anything."
Ever since he was a child, Asaches has known that Ludik is a guy who can multi-task.
It's not that similar things have never happened... but they have happened many times, and even Ludik has always prayed in this distracted way.
He can pray distractedly while planting flowers, or he can pray while eating.
What's even more outrageous is that when he stayed at Ludik's house, this guy often encouraged him to climb the wall and go out to play, and he could also complete his daily prayer homework while playing.
As for him, he was fined for not completing his homework because he was playing.
This is too much!
This guy is obviously a genius, but it's a pity that he is too casual... Sometimes Asaxes even guessed that if Ludick could completely block out all distracting thoughts, instead of praying in a multi-tasking way, but concentrate on his heart, he would probably be there sooner.
You have already become a petitioner.
"By the way, there's no fun in playing cards like this." Seeing that Asaches wasn't very interested, Ludik rolled his eyes and said, "Let's play the God's Favored Will Card? How about a hundred thousand a round?"
Asaches sneered: "Do you think you can do whatever you want if you have the will?"
Principal Ludick didn't say anything, but took out a stack of purple cards about half a palm thick from his pocket and slapped them directly on the table.
Mr. Asaches sat down without saying a word and said, "Shuffle the cards!"
After playing several rounds, Mr. Azashes already owed 400,000 willpower. He said that he only had underwear to lose, so take it if you want, otherwise he would continue to play. When he comes back, he will definitely win. With these willpower
The cards are all his.
This guy looks like a gambler whose eyes are red from gambling.
Ludick didn't mind either and continued to shuffle the cards slowly so that he could deal the cards at leisure.
They all seemed to have forgotten that they came into this room to do business.
At this time, Ludik suddenly asked: "Azaches, have you seen the saint?"
Asaxes looked at the rare good hand of cards in his hand and thought about how the flying dragon could lose this time. He subconsciously said: "Who in the city of freedom has never seen a saint? What kind of idiot are you?"
question?"
"No, I'm talking about the real saint." Ludik said quietly.
Azashes raised his head sharply and subconsciously played out the cards he had not prepared yet... Oops!
"Ludik, you villain! Did you do this on purpose?"
"Oh, what a good hand." Campus Principal Ludik sighed sadly and shook his head: "Why did you play such a good hand into a bad hand? Azaches, does this seem like your life? It is obviously
The descendants of the saint's family have become like this."
Asaches snorted coldly, threw the playing cards in his hand directly on the table, then leaned back, raised his legs to the table, and breathed into his fist, "I want to fight.
?I have never lost when I beat you... not even once."
At this moment, a faint gray-white mist quietly emerged from the room.
"What's this?"
Asaxes noticed the strange mist on the floor and frowned. At this moment, he saw that the mist was rushing toward Ludik's body with lightning speed.
But just as he took a breath, he saw Ludik showing a look of pain, and then fell to the floor.
"problem occurs!!!"
At the same time, a screaming voice also came from outside... That was Clary's voice.
What she was observing was the male assistant next to Lord Durand.
