The House of Everything I Created
Chapter 353: Confession, Shopping (Second Update)
Earl Bailie looked a little ugly when he heard this.
He had no idea what kind of person Lin Yi was.
He didn't dare to imagine what would happen if he leaked Lin Yi's information at will.
But if he didn't tell the Duke of Beidi the truth, his children and wife would not be protected.
They could only live in the North like civilians, and now they had no source of supplies.
It was hard to say how long they could live, and he was completely in a dilemma at this time.
He didn't dare to leak Lin Yi's affairs at will, which might arouse Lin Yi's anger.
At that time, his wife and children might be directly implicated.
Earl Bailie's face changed constantly, and he looked terrified and uneasy.
After a long time, he finally made up his mind.
"My Lord Duke, this is because I know a mysterious man."
"It was he who saved us this time."
"He also sent us here overnight."
The Duke of the North sneered when he heard this, "Count Bailie, do you think I'm a fool?"
"Who can take you across a thousand miles overnight?"
"There are so many dangerous mountains and rivers on the way, and wild beasts are rampant."
"Don't say it's me, even the king can't do it."
"A thousand miles a day, eight hundred miles a night."
"This is something that only the legendary thousand-mile horse can do."
"Tell me, you walked a thousand miles overnight."
"Do you think I can accept this explanation?"
Count Bailie knelt on one knee with a solemn expression, covering his chest with his right hand.
Looking at the Duke of the North, he said respectfully, "My Lord, I swear in the name of my ancestors that I will never lie, and every word is true."
"Otherwise, my Bailie family will sink forever and never make a comeback."
The Duke of the North looked at Earl Bailie. Being able to swear by his ancestors was the highest oath of the nobles, which meant that the other party had never deceived him.
Otherwise, this would be a shame for the entire family. Once exposed, they would be out of the nobles' fame.
Even if the nobles were arrested and sentenced, they were still nobles.
But if the nobles violated the glory of their ancestors and brought shame to their ancestors, they would be removed from the noble circle.
Even if he still had the status and territory of a noble, he would no longer be recognized by people in the noble circle.
The nobles would only think that this was a wild noble who was equivalent to a nouveau riche, a barbaric existence with no education, no respect for ancestors, and no honor.
In this world, the nobles valued honor above all else.
The Duke of the North fell silent, and after a long while he said, "If what you said is true, then where is this mysterious man?"
"I want to meet him. Who on earth can travel thousands of miles at night, and bring you guys with him?"
The Duke of the North was really curious. As far as he knew, even the Emperor of the Kingdom couldn't do such a thing.
If such a person really exists, then the other party must have an unknown power.
"Of course, such a strong man must be given enough respect."
"You can ask for me. If the other party disagrees, I won't force it."
The Duke of the North was also very cautious. If the other party really had mysterious power as he thought, then he must be someone who should not be offended.
For such a person, he must be very careful.
Count Bailie nodded solemnly, "My Lord Duke, I can only ask this mysterious man about this matter. His will is not something I can control."
"And I can get his help because I have reached a contract."
The Duke of Beidi frowned when he heard this, "Contract, what contract?"
The Earl looked at his wife and children and said, "You go out first, I want to talk to My Lord Duke alone."
The Countess heard this, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes, but she had no choice at this time.
She could only leave here quickly with her three children.
At this time, the Earl looked at My Lord Duke and slowly told him everything.
At this time, Lin Yi didn't know what happened in the Duke's Mansion.
He was wandering around in Qinglong City and had changed into clothes of people in this world.
He looked like an ordinary civilian, wearing a black suit.
There were all kinds of hawking sounds on the street.
Some were selling snacks, some were selling vegetables and fruits, some were selling various daily necessities, and even firewood was sold.
The whole city was filled with the smell of fireworks, a kind of prosperity of an ancient city.
Lin Yi watched all this quietly. There are different civilizations in this different world.
The costumes look like ancient ones, but they have the system of Western civilization.
Everything looks very strange, like the product of time and space distortion.
The coins used here are also gold coins, silver coins, and copper coins.
The characters used are also hieroglyphics, although they are different from the characters in the Red Lotus Realm.
Soon Lin Yi saw something interesting, a beautiful brothel appeared in his sight.
It was a huge mansion, which was three stories high and at least hundreds of meters in length and width.
It was very huge and eye-catching at first glance.
There were some women dressed in fancy clothes at the gate, soliciting customers.
However, these women were not as enthusiastic as those played on TV in the past.
The gate of this mansion was not surrounded by closed walls on both sides, but painted red fences made of wood.
Behind the fence was a row of rooms, and there was a woman dressed gorgeously in each room.
Some are playing the piano, flute, or pipa, and some are concentrating on writing articles and practicing calligraphy.
These women are very delicate and obviously dressed up.
They are the most beautiful scenery of this street.
Men walking on the street will always cast their eyes on them involuntarily.
Even if women pass by, they will look at them, after all, beauty attracts people in the same way.
The atmosphere in this world seems to be very open, and there is no feudal thinking in the world where China is, and the constraints on women, etc.
It is closer to the free thinking of the West. Women can also go to the streets and work.
Lin Yi looked at these women who were admired behind the fence, and his eyes swept across an old woman in her forties or fifties in front of the gate.
Obviously, this seems to be a kind of old brothel owner. There are some green-clothed turtles next to him, leading the way for the guests entering the brothel.
It is morning now, and there are guests entering the brothel.
But more of them are guests who stayed in the brothel last night.
Lin Yi observed the number of these people and shook his head.
"The life of luxury and extravagance, it seems that this world is still quite peaceful and developing very well."
"The power level is not too high. It would be great if we could locate this world and move the Wanshiwu here."
"Basically, we can avoid all dangers."
