When Zhang Tie fed birds in the garden, a lot of servants and guards in the manor of Lord Guangnan clicked their tongues in wonder and praised that an earth knight could be so kind and nice, a black limo with the license plate of Xuanyuan Hill had already entered the auxiliary road that led to the manor from the main road in the early morning .
An elder and a shrewd middle-aged man at his 30s were sitting at the back seats of the limo .
"Elder, does that Fire Dragon Hermit live here?" The middle-aged man couldn't stand to ask the old man when he watched the grand manor and the luxuriant garden, "Haven't our clan investigated his background? He was born in Yongzhou Province and has no foundation . Even if an earth knight has made some military exploits in the Earth-elements Realm, how could he have such a magnificent manor in Xuanyuan Hill? This one is even a bit larger than our Guan Clan's manor in Xuanyuan Hill . "
It was not amazing for a knight to have even 10,000 grand manors like this one outside Xuanyuan Hill; however, in Xuanyuan Hill, such a grand manor was really amazing .
Watching the high snow-white courtyard wall and those special rune alert copper bells that were secretly arranged on the courtyard walls, the old man revealed a smile, "As you've just been in Xuanyuan Hill for a few days, you might not know about the forces layout in Xuanyuan Hill . This manor belongs to Lord Guangnan's Mansion in Xuanyuan Hill; instead of Fire Dragon Hermit . It's not that easy for a new earth knight to have such a grand private manor in Xuanyuan Hill . "
The middle-aged man responded at once, "Did Fire Dragon Hermit seek a refuge with Lord Guangnan?"
"No, Fire Dragon Hermit might really be the son-in-law of Lord Guangnan!" The old man shook his head .
"I've not imagined that Fire Dragon Hermit could be so lucky!" The middle-aged man revealed an admiring look .
"If one doesn't have the corresponding overall strength, it's useless even if he has a pretty good luck . If Fire Dragon Hermit doesn't have a great overall strength, how could he win the bet with our forefather of Guan Clan? Even our forefather told us to do this job well!"
After hearing the elder's words, the middle-aged man felt his heart aching once again, "It's over 600 square miles' bounty land and 10 cities . How much would it cost? Our Guan Clan doesn't make money easily . We've got hundreds of thousands of people surnamed Guan to live; plus their relatives and family dependants . I'm afraid that only our forefather dares to make such a bet with such a high wager . I was told that some branch elders had already quarreled in the clan's Elders' Association . . . "
The old man replied with a heavy harrumph out of discontent, "They were kicking up a row for such a trifle . Short-sighted . Our forefather's face could never be matched by 10 cities and over 600 square miles' land . Didn't our forefather see that more clearly than them? Even though our forefather had admitted that he had lost the bet; did he need to listen to their opinions? Additionally, now that our forefather could award Fire Dragon Hermit with such things, it indicated that Fire Dragon Hermit must have special abilities that our forefather praised . This man must be unusual if he could promote to an earth knight only after entering the Earth-elements Realm for a few years . That's why our forefather told us to do this job very solemnly!"
"You're right, elder . Without forefather, our Guan Clan would never be so prosperous . We have to save our forefather's face even if we have to give up the last shot in the locker, not to mention that it was just a bit wager . As long as our forefather is on our back, our Guan Clan will be safe and prosperous . If our forefather could promote to a heavenly knight, our Guan Clan will be much more prosperous . They just bargained with the other elders in the Elders' Association when the grand elder was not there . In the final analysis, they did that only for the benefit of their clansmen . If forefather were at present, they dared not even break wind!"
When they talked, the vehicle had arrived at the gate of the manor of Lord Guangnan . When a guard approached to ask about their identity, the driver passed out an invitation card . After a short while, the gate of the manor had been opened while this vehicle drove inside . . .
. . .
Uncle Zhong arrived at Zhang Tie's side and stood aside quietly, watching Zhang Tie feeding those sparrows and pigeons surrounding him .
Previously, Uncle Zhong thought that Zhang Tie might get hang of some animal controlling skill; therefore, he was interested in feeding these little animals . It was also a special cultivation method about controlling animals . However, after observing Zhang Tie's movements for a while, he didn't find any trace that Zhang Tie could control animals . As Uncle Zhong came from the south border of Taixia Country, where there was a long history about controlling animals, he had seen many powerhouses controlling animals; therefore, Uncle Zhong knew something about controlling animals . However, after knowing that Zhang Tie directly took the basin of wheat out of the kitchen without adding any secret medicine into it and didn't utter any strange incantations or animal language without making any strange movements, Uncle Zhong found that Zhang Tie was purely playing with the birds .
It seemed that Zhang Tie was purely interested in feeding birds .
After watching it for a while, Uncle Zhong finally pretended to cough twice .
Coughs in sickness were different than that of reminding someone .
Of course, Zhang Tie could identify it .
After scattering another handful of wheat over the grass, Zhang Tie turned around .
"Uncle Zhong, what's up?"
