Chapter 71 Two People in a Group

The strange sound of wind chimes, accompanied by the "creaking" sound of the cart, came from all directions.

From far to near, it echoed in the huge banquet hall.

Almost all the seven people who were still breathing stood up from their chairs, alertly guarding all around. Some had dry throats, some had heavier breathing, some had cold sweat flowing down their necks into their underwear... and some were calm and at ease.

In Jiang Qian's sight, a spliced ​​"person" was pushed out in a wheelchair.

This "person" had a huge head, like an inverted porcelain, two eyes were two pieces of exquisitely carved obsidian, one large and one small, and the high nose bridge was made of jade.

"He" had no mouth.

Below the neck, his body was withered, wrapped in a black suit, with two dry hands like agarwood sticking out from the cuffs of the black suit, and his legs were placed in the wheelchair and covered with a blanket.

It was bulging inside, and no one knew what was stuffed in it.

"Dear guests, I'm Simon, the steward of the Duke of Highland, and I welcome you to my house."

As he spoke, he bowed in his wheelchair, and his head, which looked like an inverted porcelain, showed traces of exposed bones.

This scene was so weird that no one wanted to join in.

So he continued enthusiastically:

"I'm glad you enjoyed the dinner tonight! Oh, this sleeping boy, we have to take him down to have a good rest."

As he spoke, several servants with the same weird appearance came in, and quickly carried away the body of the plaid shirt, and soon disappeared in the banquet hall.

"I'm sure you can't wait to meet the owner of this Duke's Mansion! My respected master, Duke of Highland, is waiting for you in the reception room."

"But before meeting you, the master has a little surprise, I hope you will accept it."

As he finished speaking, three secret doors were torn open on the three walls of the banquet hall, and the three doors were pushed outward, making a harsh "squeak" sound...

"As you know, my master is the most famous collector of the contemporary era. His collection covers all fields, and he can't wait to feast your eyes! You can choose a door to visit the collection in groups of two, and the end of each road will lead to the reception room. My master is waiting for you there..."

"Oh, by the way! There are some interesting little secrets hidden in each door. I think you will be excited, hahaha..."

As he said, "he" laughed magically, a porcelain monster with a mouth missing in his expression, laughed.

As "he" laughed, Jiang Qian and others heard the reminder of the side quest:

[Side quest: Team up to explore the collection room of Duke Hyland, quest progress: 0%]

Jiang Qian subconsciously looked around the other six people, and several guesses jumped into his mind...

"Brother Jiang Yang, can you take me in a group?"

Xiao Yang next to him took the lead in holding Jiang Qian's arm, showing a little bird-like look.

She tiptoed and whispered in Jiang Qian's ear: "I am very useful, I will definitely protect my brother and shelter him from the wind and rain."

At the same time, on the other side, Tony Fugui had quickly formed a team with Dr. Dai.

The bodybuilder and the square-faced fat man naturally approached each other.

Only the graceful lady was left looking around, not knowing how to choose...

"Oh, ma'am, if you are alone, do you mind going with me?"

While the butler Simon was talking, a new wheelchair had been pushed up from the back.

The wheelchair was glittering with gold. The cushions, backrests and even armrests were inlaid with expensive jewels, ranging from hairpins and brooches to diamond rings and earrings.

But the elegant lady's face gradually turned pale...

Because the jewels inlaid on the wheelchair all had one characteristic: sharp edges and corners.

"No, no, I can form a team!"

She rushed to Jiang Qian and Xiao Yang first, but Xiao Yang held Jiang Qian's arms tightly, and her unwillingness to give in made her hesitate.

"Can only two people in a group?" She looked at the butler with a pleading look.

Butler Simon's answer made her desperate: "Only two people in a group, ma'am."

"No..."

She staggered and pushed Tony Fugui away, rushing to Dr. Dai: "Dr. Dai, take me! You and I are on the same side. He is already injured and I am more useful than him!"

Dr. Dai maintained a gentlemanly demeanor: "Sorry, ma'am."

He refused.

The elegant lady's expression became more and more anxious, and she finally looked at the square-faced fat man and the bodybuilder.

In panic, she tried to stay calm and think: from the beginning of the meal to now, she and the bodybuilder have been arguing all the time, and the other party will definitely not team up with her.

But the square-faced fat man and she have no friction.

Maybe the other party can't judge her identity yet?

Thinking of this, the elegant lady bit her red lips and turned to the last hope: "Mr. Chef..."

"Get out of here!"

The bodybuilder stood in front of the square-faced fat man and shouted angrily: "What are you thinking that I can't see? Get out, don't think that I dare not hit you just because you are good-looking!"

The elegant lady was shocked by this outburst.

The other party's attitude was already very clear.

In the current situation, even if she tried her best, it was impossible to change the mind of any group in this state.

She looked back at the wheelchair flashing with cold light in despair. She could imagine her miserable situation when she was sitting on pins and needles, and her face turned pale!

"Just go with them."

At the moment of almost despair, the young man's calm voice came to her ears.

Jiang Qian pointed at the group of the square-faced fat man and the bodybuilder who had just rejected her.

He emphasized again: "Go to their group."

"This?"

The elegant lady thought she didn't hear clearly: "But they already have two people..."

She looked at Jiang Qian in confusion, and the other party didn't seem to be joking with her.

"If you don't want to sit in that wheelchair, go over there and try." Jiang Qian looked at the elegant lady calmly, "You choose the cards yourself, and you have to wade through the mountains and seas of fire by yourself."

The two were silent for a few seconds.

The eyes of the elegant lady changed from the weakness on the edge of despair to doubt and uncertainty, and finally gradually calmed down.

She resolutely turned and walked towards the door near the bodybuilder and the square-faced fat man.

So that the bodybuilder and the square-faced fat man had not yet reacted to what was going on, and the elegant lady had already stepped past the two and walked into the dark door first!

The bodybuilder followed closely behind, and the square-faced fat man followed him in, and the door slowly closed under the gaze of Jiang Qian and others...

"What is this?" Tony Fugui looked at Jiang Qian in surprise, and then at the housekeeper.

Butler Simon did not say anything.

As if what happened just now was not worth discussing.

"Is it you who has a problem?!"

Jiang Qian ignored Tony Fugui's roar, and turned with a stunned Xiao Yang and walked into the door behind him.

"Let's go, stop looking."

Dr. Dai reached out and patted Tony Fugui on the shoulder: "It's not so strange to find a freak in an S-level copy."

Tony Fugui's shoulders trembled for a while, and gradually restrained his pale and ferocious expression.

He stared fiercely at the direction where Jiang Qian disappeared, turned around unwillingly, and said to Dr. Dai: "He is definitely an official, I should have killed him just now!"
