Chapter 219 [Ambushes] (Two in One)

Listening to the countess' decisive words, Chen Xiaolian was moved!

"So, now, are you willing to tell me?" The countess looked at Chen Xiaolian with bright eyes.

Looking at the blood stains on the countess' lips that were bitten by herself, Chen Xiaolian felt a little shaken in his heart.

"Have you heard of the name Miaoyan?" Chen Xiaolian sighed.

The countess's eyes immediately changed!

"I've heard of this name!" The Countess said quickly: "Someone once mistakenly recognized me, this name..."

"Okay." Chen Xiaolian interrupted the countess and the two had a similar conversation a few days ago. Chen Xiaolian had already learned a lot, so there was no need to repeat it again.

He looked at the countess: "It's good that you know the name... Then, I think, I might be able to tell you something. No, to be precise, it's exchange."

"What do you want?" The Countess took a deep breath: "I can give you money, a lot of money! I should be considered a very rich woman."

If it were in the past, this smart woman would not offer so straightforwardly, and would not expose her urgent mentality if she came out of the above.

But today, at this moment, in the cemetery, her mood was obviously not very stable, and she lost her usual calmness and shrewdness.

"What I need is not money." Chen Xiaolian frowned, and he thought for a moment: "I need... something."

"A thing?" the countess raised his eyebrows.

Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly, he hesitated for a moment and sighed: "Have you heard of King Arthur's sword in stone?"

Earl: "…………”

...

After a long time, the countess's face finally showed a slight change. She stared at Chen Xiaolian's eyes, as if observing Chen Xiaolian's eyes, and slowly said: "How did you... know about this thing?"

"Legend? Story?" Chen Xiaolian smiled.

"Don't go around with me, you know very well what I'm asking." The Countess said coldly: "A legendary thing, you came to ask me?"

"You are a descendant of the Norman family." Chen Xiaolian said lightly: "You are a descendant of William the Conqueror and a direct inheritor of the Norman dynasty."

"I can't tell you know a lot about British history." The Countess' tone was a bit mocking.

She thought for a while: "If I tell you that this thing is fictional and does not exist, what about you looking for the wrong person?"

"Then I will turn around and leave now." Chen Xiaolian said lightly: "Although your life experience and your story make people sympathize... but I am not close to you, so there seems to be no need to show my pity."

Chen Xiaolian could clearly feel that when he finished saying this, the momentum of the woman in front of him was completely different!

She was like a furry cat, staring at herself with hostile eyes!

Chen Xiaolian is waiting.

The Countess was hesitating and thinking.

...

"It may be time for us to go back. This is not a place to discuss important matters." The Countess suddenly laughed.

At this moment, the calm and smart countess seemed to finally return to her body.

After calming down, this woman is very smart and difficult to deal with.

"So tell me, where to go? Go to your mansion?" Chen Xiaolian said lightly.

The Countess suddenly glanced at Chen Xiaolian: "Ah, by the way, you said before, you came to visit me, but happened to see me go out... So, where do you know my home? Have you been?"

Of course I've been there... Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly in his heart, but he didn't see you, but saw another one.

Seeing that Chen Xiaolian kept silent, the countess had no intention of continuing to ask. She took a deep breath: "Then go to my house."

As she said that, she shouted, and the butler Stewart walked over quickly with his bodyguard.

"Go back, I've been in this place for a long time." The countess said lightly.

"Yes, my master." Stewart headed, and soon he informed the driver to drive over.

Seeing the car stopping in front of you, Chen Xiaolian said: "My car will follow you..."

"No!"

The countess looked at Chen Xiaolian, and a strange look flashed in her eyes: "You get into my car."

"Uh?" Chen Xiaolian was stunned for a moment.

The countess looked at the butler: "Stuart, you drive."

The butler frowned and looked at the bodyguard: "Then he and the driver..."

"Let me find a way to go back." The Countess shook his head: "You can arrange it."

“This is not safe!”

The bodyguard questioned. He looked at Chen Xiaolian and frowned and said, "I should stay by your side..."

"No, I have something to talk to this gentleman on the way." The countess waved his hand.

Chen Xiaolian hesitated for a moment, and nodded.

...

When the tire spare tire was driving over, the countess did not have any unexpected expressions. She was very calm, but the butler and bodyguard seemed a little vigilant.

Chen Xiaolian explained to the tire spare tire a few words and got into the Countess' car, and the driver became the butler Stewart.

Tires and spare tires drive behind.

As for the bodyguard and the original driver... that's not something Chen Xiaolian needs to worry about.

Stewart's driving skills are very stable.

The speed is not very fast. It is driving on the road.

And after the car started, the butler was very clever and immediately automatically pulled up the partition between the front cab and the rear row.

"Now we can continue the topic just now." The countess sat in his seat and smiled faintly.

This is a very old-fashioned car, with double seats at the rear and face to face.

The Countess opened a drawer in a car and took out a bottle of wine and two wine glasses from it.

The wine is champagne, chilled.

"I wish us a successful deal in advance." The Countess smiled, opened the champagne with an automatic bottle opener, poured himself a glass, and poured another glass for Chen Xiaolian.

Chen Xiaolian took a sip: "It tastes good, French?"

"Of course, everyone else can only call sparkling wine." The Countess shook her head, and she looked at Chen Xiaolian: "Can you ask, why do you think that the sword in the stone will be in my hands? In the hands of the Norman family?"

Chen Xiaolian hesitated for a moment and glanced at the partition.

"Soundproof." The Countess said lightly: "You don't have to worry. Say it. Moreover, Stewart is the person I trust the most."

"It's very simple, I learned about British history. The Norman family was the first powerful dynasty that truly established a strong British foundation.

So, if the legend of King Arthur alludes to anyone, I personally guess that it may alludes to your ancestors, the great conqueror, William.

And... the sword in the stone, the sword of the king, match the first great king. I think it is a very suitable combination."

"So you guess, the sword in the stone is in the hands of my ancestor Conqueror William?" The Countess took a sip of champagne.

The woman smiled slightly: "Since you have read the legendary story, you must know that the sword in the stone has been destroyed."

"As a sword, it has indeed been destroyed. But as the scepter of the royal power, I think it is not important to break the scepter, what is important is the meaning of its existence. No one will throw this thing away if it really exists."

"Look, you didn't answer my question." The Countess said lightly: "You just speculated based on legends and the history of my ancestors William the conquerors. You might have speculated that this thing might be in the hands of our family... But my question is...how do you determine that this thing really exists! After all, it is just a legendary fiction."

There is no doubt that this woman is very smart! She grasped the key to the problem!

The reason why Chen Xiaolian was sure that the sword in the stone really existed... was because he had the hilt of the sword in his hand!

But of course he didn't plan to tell this woman.

"I think now is not the time for you to ask questions and I answer questions." Chen Xiaolian said lightly: "I said, you can deny that the sword in the stone is in your hands. Then I can get out of the car and leave immediately."

"..." The countess subconsciously pursed the corner of his lips.

This action added some confidence in Chen Xiaolian.

"You're asking for a high price."

After a long time, the countess said this.

Chen Xiaolian's eyes lit up: "So, you admit this thing..."

"Do I deny it works? You have already determined it anyway." The Countess shook his head: "But even so, the value of such a thing is precious. I don't think I need to say more. You can just use a simple transaction to take it away from me. The price is very unfair."

"Even if this price is to unravel the nightmare in your long-term heart?" Chen Xiaolian looked directly at the countess.

The countess's face tightened.

She suddenly sneered: "Maybe...I can get what I want without doctrine! I can... grab it!"

As she said that, she suddenly pulled out a gun from a secret compartment next to her seat!
