Book of Gods and Demons

Not long into the night, Muteste silver azure's body hung obliquely in the eastern sky, and the moonlight was like water illuminating everything.

The sea breeze is coming, and the heavy rain clouds seem to create something from nothing, covering Tulum Harbor in just a few breaths. The strong smell of water filled the air, and it was too fast for you to cover your ears. Two electric lights flashed by, and before the sound of thunder came, the pouring rain was already roaring down.

Qiantan District, this is the most traditional settlement of rich people in Tulum Port.

Many years ago, when Tulum Port was gradually transformed from a smuggling gathering place to a real city, the rich and powerful families from Jiaxijia Island were on the gentle and beautiful front beach. District, built the first family forts.

For more than a hundred years, these family fortresses have been gradually transformed and gradually expanded, forming a vast estate with many buildings.

The old house of the Kaban family is just south of this extremely luxurious manor, and is close to the beach. There is a small hill on the left and right, and a Little Pagoda building more than sixty feet high was built on it. .

Decades ago, more than a dozen artillery pieces were installed in these two Little Pagoda buildings to protect the manor.

As time passed, after the Empire annexed the Port of Tulum, the artillery in the two Little Pagoda buildings were removed, but the towers still housed elite gunners and archers, which is still an effective support point for the protection of the manor. .

In the gorgeously furnished restaurant, mostly decorated in two colors of black and red, the senior members of the Caban family are enjoying a delicious meal.

According to the tradition of Jiasijia, every dinner is a serious ceremony.

Everyone gathers here to exchange feelings, exchange knowledge, discuss the major event of the family, and resolve conflicts and disputes between each other. All things, any privacy, no matter the details, can and must be brought to the table for discussion.

The dining table is the bond of family connection. Family members who hold real power gather together to communicate with each other openly, eliminate any possible discord and misunderstanding between each other, and ensure that the family is together and moving forward. .

The huge oak dining table is quite a bit bumpy, and years have left indelible marks on it.

On the long dining table, sterling silver candlesticks are lined up, and the white candles with thin arms emit bright rays of light, illuminating the huge dining room. The large axes, heavy swords, shields and other exhibits hanging on the four walls of the restaurant.

The long head of the dining table, the tall chair is empty, like the other family members, Patriarch, the Kaban family, and Charon Jonka, one of the Seven Committee of Tulum Port Ban, too, was trapped in the city hall and failed to return.

Long dining table tail section, facing the back chair belonging to Charon, Garong Yung Caban, the current family deacon of the Caban family in Tulum, Charons pro-Uncle, positive end Sitting upright on the chair, using a wooden knife seriously, picked up a small amount of white golden caviar, and carefully smeared it on the goat's milk white bread.

Ga Rong wears the traditional costume of the indigenous people of Jiaxijia.

Riding boots, hunting pants, Boss Gu belt set with gold, inlaid with jade, white shirt made of muslin, gray leather vest, two short machetes hanging around the waist.

According to the tradition of Jiasijia Island, a Patriarch family must be clansman who is middle-aged and powerful, wild ambition, very ruthless, and smartest. In this way, Patriarch made a plan, coordinated the program, and pointed out the direction of the family.

The deacon of the family must be a wind and rain, experienced and knowledgeable, sleek, treacherous and clever old man like Ga Rong.

If a family is an army, the head of the family is the commander, and the family deacon is the staff. The commander can issue any order, and the staff is responsible for checking and filling vacancies, making these orders more perfect and more in line with family interests.

The table is full of delicious food.

White golden caviar, pink foie gras, plump fresh big oysters, precious sea fish soaked in red wine sauce... and golden bunting birds with attractive fragrance, smear The wild duck with thick sauce and a strange shape...

The most attractive thing is a roasted whole lamb in the middle of the table.

Golden-bright and dazzling roasted whole lamb crawling on a huge sterling silver dinner plate, a middle-aged man with a mustache grabbed a knife and cut a large piece of lamb with force The ribs were placed on the plate in front of him with a big smile, and he whistled triumphantly.

Ga Rong lifts the head and looked at the twelve clansman sitting on both sides of the dining table.

The three clansman, who are about the same age as the owner Charon, are nearly fifty years old. They wear large open-necked large dresses in the style of the Deren Empire. The black dress style is heavy and conservative, just like Deren The empire gives people the feeling that when you put on this dress, people seem to have become a small hill and pestle there.

Nine young clansman in their thirties and nearly 40 years old, they are wearing small-collar tuxedos in the style of the Ice Sea Kingdom. In terms of details, they have made some gorgeousness unique to the Gaul Republic. change.

This makes these tuxedos look lively and smart, with a fancy flavor that young girls appreciate more.

Not solemn enough, not traditional enough...

But to talk about tradition...Ga Rong looked down at the traditional costumes of Jiaxijia on his body, gently snorted, in his hands The wooden knife used a little bit of strength and suddenly crushed several roe, and a fishy smell floated out.

Traditional, among the senior members of the Caban family, only Ga Rong and a few other Old Guys are still willing to wear the traditional costumes of Jiasijia.

These young people with real power are not even as good as the family guards from humble backgrounds.

Ga Rong, whose mood suddenly became bad, threw the goat's milk bread in his hand on the dinner plate, waved the wooden knife with his right hand, knocked heavily on the red wine glass in front of him, and issued a "ding ding ding~" Crisp sound.

The red wine glass made of natural crystal is brilliant and magnificent.

But these red wine glasses made Ga Rong's mood even worse.

When he was young, when he had dinner with clansman, everyone used bronze and silver drinking vessels. Each wine vessel has a history, is a good thing uploaded by the ancestors, inscribed with the glory of the family, and records the vicissitudes of the family.

These young people now like these bright and colorful gadgets.

Does this kind of fresh goods bought at a high price from the United Kingdom of Nice have the texture and history of those bronze and silver wineware?

Twelve smiling and Yinyin are letting go of the Kaban clansman who was eating shouted belly, and at the same time put down the cutlery in his hand, looked towards the old man of Garong.

Charon squatted in the city hall and couldn't come back. Ga Rong was the most authoritative person on the table.

A young man in a tuxedo with long hair tied into a pony tail and a strong perfume smell laughed and said: "Gerong grandfather, are there any arrangements?"

p>

Ga Rong glanced deeply at the Juniors at the table one by one, and said in a deep tone: "The bloody female devil of Jiaxijia has come ashore. She has messed up Jiaxijia Island. Relatives on the mountain , One by one complains endlessly."

"Can't let her mess up Tulum Port." Ga Rong coldly said: "So these days, you all have peace of mind... Your subordinates, too. Let me keep an eye on them, stay safe and dont cause trouble."

Ga Rong warned his Juniors severely: "Remember, the slave sales in Tulum Port, our Caban family monopolizes 70%. Above. And that female devil, you know her attitude towards slave trading. If we hit her, we will be in trouble, and we will be in trouble."

Outside the wind and The rain was great, the thunder roared, and the huge thunderbolt sound exploded, causing the weapons and shields hanging on the wall in the restaurant to'buzz' and resonate.

In the internal part of Kabans family, Shivard Jon Kaban, who is responsible for the slave trade, touched his beard, and said solemnly: "Garong Uncle, dont worry, our latest one It will be a month and a half for the slave capture team to return to Hong Kong. At that time, the female devil had already returned to her lair."

After a cough, Shivard said leisurely: "Actually, Today, our Caban family dont need to be so careful? Female devil, even if she holds the military power, is just a Duke of Trifling... That Royal Highness..."

Ga Rong waved the wooden knife "Shut up, idiot. No matter how honorable your highness is, he is in the Imperial Capital; female devil, but he is on Jiasijia Island. If you make a mistake, let her take an excuse and the Imperial Army will call me Caban's house. How's it going, will your Highness vent your anger for us afterwards?"

"You don't know the face of the nobleman?" Ga Rong said dissatisfiedly: "Even if your Highness really remembers all these years Our contribution, revenge for us afterwards...what does it mean to us?"

Ga Rong drooped his eyes and said darkly: "The momentum is wrong, I feel dangerous. Compared to 40 years ago , The time when the Empire annexed Tulum Port, it was even more dangerous."

"Sent troops to the city hall, Charon was trapped in it, and he couldnt even go home to dine...Even a word Dont come out. Ga Rong muttered: Now we are also the nobles of the empire. There is no real evidence. We are not afraid that her female devil dares to plant spoils indiscriminately.

But remember, remember, the female devil is in Tulum Port for one day, Just restrain clansman, dont commit crimes, must not commit crimes."

"Squat at home obediently and honestly." Ga Rong said solemnly: "Whoever dares to cause trouble to the family at this time, I will personally Shot."

The twelve clansman of the Caban family mutually glanced at each other, and at the same time solemnly nodded.

The bloody female devil of Cassica, how many aboriginals of Cassica has she killed over the years. Even if Shivard had such a great character in Tulum Harbour, thinking of Duke Ross, I felt chills.

There was silence for a while in the restaurant, and Shivard suddenly laughed: "However, Ga Rong Uncle, the plan that His Royal Highness mentioned before, to form a marine force in Tulum Port, as long as things Yes, our Caban family can also hold a few regular combat divisions..."

The cold light flickered in Ga Rongs eyes. He took a deep look at Shivard and gently waved the wooden knife in his hand. .

"Shut up and eat...If the plan is successful, perhaps, we can also replace the "Rong" in the family name with the more noble "Feng"!"

"When the time comes..."

With an indescribable smile pretending to be mysterious, Ga Rong stuffed a box full of caviar into his mouth intoxicated.

"when the time comes!"

The twelve clansman of the Kaban family were sighed in intoxication at the same time, smiling mysteriously.

'Boom, boom boom'!

The sound of dull cannons came, and the crazy screams and curses of the Cabans clansman and servants came from outside the restaurant.
