146 Lost in a Moment (Part 2)

The blue sky and white clouds and the spring breeze are pleasant. No matter how you look, it is a good weather for travel, but Adrian's face is gloomy like the eve of a storm. The woman in front of him is his eldest daughter Catalina, and the young man under the feet of the noble man is the blacksmith who secretly meets his eldest daughter.

As for the pale aristocratic young man, it was Viscount Sovra.

Katerina is Viscount Sophra's mistress. As for the little things about her and the poor blacksmith, many nobles knew about it, but Viscount Sophra was not clear. Recently, he always felt that other people's eyes were always a little strange. Over time, he felt something was wrong. He asked his subordinates to check it, but after checking it, something really came out, so he had this scene in front of him.

Viscount Sophra looked at a group of people coming from afar. He was sharp-eyed and recognized Adrian immediately.

With a sneer, Soraf stepped on the young man under his feet, and then said to Katerina who begged in front of him: "You can be considered my woman... I won't make things difficult for you, but it's hard for your father to say that his personality and behavior, to be precise, we all know the way you men in the Becedo family."

Hearing this, Katerina shook her body. She turned around and saw her father with a dark face. She was walking quickly. Her already pale face turned into a tragic blue color.

All of Bechedo's children were afraid of their father. Although Adrian gave their dear mother to a great nobleman to vent his desires, and then led to the death of his mother. They were angry and resentful. But Adrian always set an example, and always aimed at family interests as the primary goal, not caring about his reputation or even his safety.

For such fathers, their feelings are very complicated, and they can be summed up in two words: awe.

Not long after, Adrian walked up to the three of them. Katerina looked at her father with a black charcoal expression and was about to say something, but then she was slapped loudly in the face.

The little blacksmith, who had originally accepted his fate and was trampled under his feet, saw his woman being knocked to the ground, screaming, supporting the ground with both hands, and struggling hard. The muscles on his arms were raised high, covered with tangled blood vessels, obviously having strength. But even so, Soraf, who looked pale and looked weak, still easily stepped on him to the ground.

No matter how weak aristocrats who have practiced fighting spirit are, they are not something ordinary people can compete with.

"I dare to move around!" Sovra directly stepped on the little blacksmith's face into the sand; then looked at someone who had just walked over with a laughing expression: "Oh. Isn't this the Lord Bechedo, Gui'an."

Adrian quickly glanced at his eldest daughter who was beaten to the bleeding corner of his mouth, and then a smile struggling on his face, which was so black that it was almost dripping out of ink, "Vissue Sophra, why are you here?"

"Didn't you ask this knowingly?" Sovra laughed jokingly. Her white teeth reflected a light that was harsh in the sun: "I had a good impression of your Becedo family, but now this happened... Lord Adrian. What do you think you should do!"

Adrian frowned: "The common people seduce a noble woman and commit adultery. It is a serious crime. Besides, he is a servant of my family, and it is even more sinful. I hope you can hand over this blacksmith to me for handling. After the family trial, I will kill him to wash away the shame of my family."

"Father, don't... no." Katerina quickly crawled over, hugged Adrian's big feet, begging her. She knew that her father had always been the same... If he really had a murderous intention to fight the little blacksmith, then the latter would not be enough.

"Get out of here, you corrupt beast." Adrian wanted to kick his daughter aside, but unfortunately he couldn't use any force at all when Katerin held her calves tightly.

Sofra looked at the side with a smile, as if watching a comedy. After a moment he said, "His Excellency Adrian is really just, a model among nobles... but I want to have a ruthless request. After you openly hear, can I watch this little blacksmith be executed with my own eyes?"

Adrian closed his eyes for a moment, then opened his eyes, still in a calm expression: "I plan to stone this blacksmith... The scene will be very bloody. Your identity is noble, if you are present in person, will it damage your identity?"

When he heard that it was a stone punishment, Katerina screamed, let go of Adrian's calves and fainted on the ground. The little blacksmith seemed to accept his fate and stopped struggling.

"It doesn't matter. I'm used to being sloppy. I don't even think Katerina is dirty. It depends on what it means to kill someone."

Adrian's eyelids twitched and he didn't say anything.

Sovra stepped on the blacksmith under her feet and continued, "His Excellency Adrian, I remember that in our private agreement, I will give you the drawing if I asked Caterina to accompany me for three months. But you didn't tell me that Caterina actually secretly had sex with other men. It would be fine if it was a noble, but it was a pariah... When I think of sharing a hole with the inferior, I felt disgusted. Adrian, how should you compensate me?"

Adrian said expressionlessly: "This is indeed wrong with our family... In this case, how about I ask Lux to apologize to you?"

"Qingyinhuā?" Sovra smiled and said, "It's better to let it go. Your little daughter seems to be called...Rus. I heard that she is still a virgin, so why not let her come and apologize to me!"

Adrian, who had a dark face, laughed when he heard this: "Sofra did not attend the dinner held by the Soul Thinker Association! Then today, there should not be any inquiries about what happened last night! The little daughter Ruth is now the maid of Your Excellency Chen Xiansong. So I can only express my deep regret."

A soul-thinker named Chen Xiansong came to the lunar city. This is something everyone knows. Sovra laughed: "You are not kidding, you are not kidding. The thread of the soul-thinker is not that easy to match."

Sofra is the second son of the clan. His brother attended the banquet last night on behalf of his family. In addition, he spent all his thoughts on the matter in front of him last night, so he got up early and didn't even know what happened last night.

Adrian's smile seemed more relaxed.

Looking at Adrian's calm smile, Sophra felt that something seemed to be a little wrong. At this time, Chen Xiansong slowly walked to the front of the four. Since he was just wearing ordinary aristocratic clothes today, he did not wear a robe of a soul-thinking figure symbolizing his identity. In addition, Sophra did not attend the banquet, so the latter did not guess Chen Xiansong's identity at this moment.

Sovra looked at Chen Xiansong, and then his eyes fell on Bai Min's body... After a few seconds, his expression became messy, and then he seemed very uneasy. When he saw the blacksmith under his feet, he hurriedly put away his feet. After tidying up his clothes, he bent down and saluted Bai Min: "Beautiful lady, can I be lucky to know your name?"

Bai Min ignored him. He didn't even look at him.

If he had met a woman who ignored him before, Sovra would definitely be angry. If the other party's status was higher than him, he would still be angry, but he would hide this emotion in his heart and wait for an opportunity to take revenge in the future. But Bai Min ignored him, he was lost and inferior, but he didn't even have any thought of complaining... because he felt that he had seen the goddess who fell in the mortal world.

So he not only did not get angry, but instead took two steps back. He seemed very uneasy, as if he felt that his rude behavior just now made the other party bored.

Adrian was disappointed when he saw Sofra. He was not angry, and the meaning of pity flashed through his eyes.

Without Sovra's restraint, the little blacksmith climbed up and ran to Caterina, wanting to help her, but when he saw Adrian's gaze move, he didn't dare to move anymore. He was the apprentice in the jewelry workshop responsible for casting metal, and Caterina was responsible for supervising the progress of the jewelry workshop. She often came here to observe. After a while, she didn't know why the two met and then secretly got together.

But there is no airtight wall in the world. Not long after, Adrian learned about their affairs, many nobles also knew about it, and now Sovra also knew about it.

Adrian stared at the little blacksmith: "Get back to your home now and wait for the execution of stoning. If you dare to escape, your whole family will not want to live. I will not stay any of your father, brothers and sisters."

The little blacksmith's face was full of honesty like a brick and didn't see much fear. He just asked, "Catrina won't be a problem, right?"

Adrian glanced at him again: "Please take care of your own affairs first."

Chen Xiansong was a little curious when he heard the conversation between the two: "What is stone punishment?"

Adrian hesitated for a while, and then explained: "It is to throw the sinner into a big pit, and then slowly smash it to death with a stone the size of a fist to wash away the sins on his body."

Chen Xiansong frowned and said, "It's too cruel."

A light flashed in Adrian's eyes: "Since you have spoken, I will spare the male blacksmith for now and deal with it as appropriate."

Chen Xiansong was wearing the mask made by Bai Min for him, and his voice was distorted, so it was hard for Adrian to understand it.

Although Adrian was still a poker face, Chen Xiansong seemed to be able to feel a happy mood rising quietly on the other party. He seemed to have some insight and looked at Adrian with a meaningful look. Someone was staring at him and his hair stood up, as if his soul was being peeped. It was not until Chen Xiansong looked away that he felt relieved, but even so, his forehead was covered with sweat.

Frances stayed behind Chen Xiansong. After hearing that she was going out for an "outing trip", she was so happy that she was jumping all the way. Now she was watching what was happening in front of her with interest. She was a girl, and she was also literate. She had read a lot of "romance" novels circulating among the nobles.

Generally speaking, the poor but talented civilians fell in love with a noble girl. They were separated by a male nobleman in love. The male civilians were framed and left to them... After several twists and turns, they found that they actually had the talent of a soul-thinking person. Finally, they took revenge with the power of thunder, and finally robbed the noble girl back and lived a life of sexual happiness from then on.

Aristocratic men generally don't like to read such stories, or they only like to read the ending short paragraph. But women especially like them, especially those girls who have not yet fallen in love. They have innocent and beautiful fantasies about this plot. As for the last content, they are all used as enlightenment books.

The scene in front of him is almost in line with the plot in the book in the little guy's eyes. If the blacksmith who fell on the ground has a little talent as a soul-thinking person, it would be a novel. Therefore, the little guy's pupils turned into a lilac color without anyone noticing it, and he kept staring at the little blacksmith with curious eyes, as if he hoped to see something.

After looking for a while, the little guy could only see the slap and numbness in the blacksmith's eyes... In her little heart, the teacher's eyes were the most beautiful, and the luster of wisdom and kindness flashed inside, just like the brightest star at dawn. Such eyes are the characteristics that soul deep thinking people should have.

Then she lost interest.

Chen Xiansong continued to move forward. Adrian took a step and whispered to the little blacksmith: "Take Carter back, and then go back to his home, wait, don't do anything, do you understand?"

The blacksmith nodded in a silence, Adrian snorted and quickly followed.

Sophra stood behind, looking at Bai Min's back, feeling lost, as if he wanted to catch up, but he didn't dare.

Soon a few people arrived outside the workshop. The heavy metal smell made people feel uncomfortable. Even Adrian, who often came here to check and smelled the smell, felt a little uncomfortable. Chen Xiansong had a mask, and was still good, and Bai Min had no abnormalities at all. What's strange is that the little guy, he did not react at all to such an environment.

Chen Xiansong was a little careless and did not notice this, but Bai Min noticed that Frances' slightly raised chest stopped rising and falling completely, as if she didn't need to breathe. However, Bai Min only had a direct response to dangerous creatures. Besides, if she didn't breathe for several hours, biochemical people could do it. She didn't think that this ability was strange. She lacked a brain that could think independently and would not think too much for the time being.

Because of Chen Xiansong's visit, the workshop had completely stopped working and everyone was ordered to come out to greet him.

There were a total of workshop workers in their early forties, arranged in two teams. No one dared to look at Chen Xiansong, all bent down and lowered their heads, looking so grand that they didn't dare to show off.

The first impression that Chen Xiansong gave to Chen Xiansong was "chaos". Wastewater, garbage... The air even had the smell of urine mixed with the smell of urine. The placement of furnaces, casting tables, cutting tables and other workbenches was completely casual and had no rules. Perhaps for the sake of confidentiality, there was no window in the workshop. The light inside was extremely dark, and workers could only rely on the dim light emitted from the oil lamps and furnaces to do their work.

This caused the oxygen content inside to be significantly lower than that outside. As soon as he entered, Chen Xiansong felt that he could not breathe.

Looking at this scene, Chen Xiansong twitched his lips and said to himself: "There are so many things that can be improved, and I don't know where to start." (To be continued...)
