Chapter 69: The Old Man in Front of the Portrait

Lu Xi turned around and saw the ambassador in a gorgeous dress. However, no matter how Mr. Ambassador dresses, it is unlikely that he will become personable, and the people around him are much more gorgeous than him.

It was a woman in an aqua blue gown, with long brown-black hair with gorgeous waves, and she had a pair of eyes as bewitching as violets, with a high nose bridge and fair skin; The robe draped over his body could not hide the bumpy fiery figure and slender and graceful legs. She looks at her smoking, looks forward to the brilliance, and seduces her soul with her gestures. What's more, from those thousands of manners, you can find twenty-year-old bodybuilding, thirty-year-old gorgeousness, and forty-year-old maturity, and no one can judge her age.

If you change to someone else, you will probably call her a peerless enchantress; However, when it was Lu Xi, he was just stunned and muttered a few words in a low voice.

", the best!"

"What are you doing here? Why did you arrive so late? Seeing that Lu Xi did not answer, the ambassador repeated it again and casually added another question.

"Well, I arrived late because I had to go shopping for a dress. After all, I've been a poor boy since I was a child, and I'm not ready to participate in a banquet of this level, so it always takes some time to prepare for it. Well, as for what I'm doing here, as you can see, eat. ”

The second half of Ambassador Boyle's words were choked back into his throat, and his face turned red. He just wanted to have a seizure, but the beautiful woman next to him "giggled" and laughed.

"What an interesting junior."

"It's my pleasure to entertain you, I'm Lucy Berencaster, what do you call you?"

"Koflona Pascal, take care of me, junior."

It turned out to be the highest military attache counselor of the Auckland Embassy, the only magician among the embassy officials except Lu Xi, and it is said that he is still a three-star star! Well, are the female mages of the Learned Alliance so good? First there was the little beauty of Sesileleu, and now there is a senior beauty.

Brigadier General Koflona introduced herself as she extended her right hand. The back of her hand was upward, revealing smooth skin. Obviously, she wanted Lu Xi to give him an elegant kiss, but the little otaku who didn't understand the amorous feeling took her hand and waved it dryly.

"Take care of me, pretty big sister!"

A hint of surprise and anger flashed in Koflona's brow, but in less than a second, it changed to a smile again.

If the "beautiful big sister" was said by a pink Shota with red lips and white teeth, she would definitely accept it very happily, but if it was replaced by a young man like Lu Xi, it seemed to be constantly reminding her of her age, which suddenly made Koflona a little unhappy.

Of course, as a good diplomat, it is necessary to keep a proper smile while sarcastically smiling the other person in his stomach with the most vicious words. Lu Xi's incomprehensible answer didn't make her lose her temper.

After a few more conversations, the ambassador and brigadier general excused themselves and left.

What the hell are these two guys here for? Lu Xihu watched the two leave suspiciously, then rolled his eyes at the bewitching back, and once again focused on his food plate.

"Mature women are domineering, royal sisters are kings, and Lori is saints. But the three cute girls are the way of heaven! Why should I abandon the way of heaven and go overbearing? Also, whoever disturbs me eating, whatever you are, you will all die! Lu Xi despised the other party for a few minutes, picked up the food plate, and sneaked out of the hall.

After sweeping away the food in a secluded corner of the garden, and then drinking the expensive drinks and drinks, Lu Xi casually placed the plate on the flower stand. He knew that a servant would come to clean up, so he clapped his hands and prepared to leave. However, when he walked in the corridor of the palace for more than ten minutes, he couldn't help but stop. …,

In front of him, there is a huge portrait, estimated to be of the same height as a real person.

The portrait shows a female knight in armor riding a tall white horse, with blond hair and blue eyes, beautiful facial features, and a slender figure, but there is a kind of majestic coercion and momentum between the eyebrows, like the rising sun on the horizon.

The colors and lines of this painting do not look very gorgeous, but the female knight in the painting seems to be a real person, and the real majesty makes Lu Xi almost bow and salute. However, after he calmed down a bit, Lu Xi always felt that the female knight's eyebrows and eyes seemed to be a little familiar.

"Impossible, if I have seen such a superb queen, I will definitely not be able to forget it."

In this way, Lu Xi groaned and stayed in front of this portrait for a long time. As he was about to leave, he took a step back, only to feel himself knock down a man's body.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was so rude." Lu Xi hurriedly apologized to him. When he saw that he was bumped into by an old man who was at least seventy years old in a white dress, with his hair and beard all covered in silver threads, he couldn't help but feel a little more guilty: "Do you feel uncomfortable about anything?" Why don't you find a place to sit first? ”

"Oh, it doesn't matter, although I'm a little older, but I was also a warrior of the three armies at the beginning, so I won't be able to withstand a hit! Don't look at your young age, young man, I'm afraid you're no match for me compared to brute force. The silver-haired old man had a smile on his face, and he couldn't see the slightest blame and annoyance, which soon made Lu Xi a little closer.

The old man's figure is a little fat, his face is healthy and ruddy, his face is full of silver hair and long beard, and he has a few Santa Claus flavors. However, in comparison, his spirit does not seem to be very good, although he has always maintained a cheerful and kind smile, but he always seems a little reluctant.

"You like this portrait very much." The old man looked at the portrait in the hallway, and a look of remembrance flashed.

"Yes. If you look at the general portrait, its lines and techniques are not particularly perfect, and it is probably equivalent to the level of second- and third-rate painters. However, I can see that the person who painted it has put almost all his heart and soul into it, which gives this painting the temperament and soul of a treasure. Well, the painter must have loved the female knights in his paintings. ”

"Hehe~~ This is also normal. The female knight in the painting is the former queen Estelle! ”

"Estelle? Known as the reincarnation of the goddess of radiance, His Majesty Saint-Estiel? ”

"Hehe, Valkyrie, Goddess of Radiance, Estiel of the Holy Light, she has a lot of names."

"Well, the author of this painting is ...... His Majesty the Emperor Gaius, right? ”

"It's not hard to guess who else can pour all the love and passion into Queen Estille?"

Lu Xi still wanted to ask something, but the old man was obviously not ready to stay on this topic. He looked at Lu Xi for a moment, and his gaze lingered on the six-pointed star pattern on his dress.

"You're Nadia's magician?"

"Yes, I'm the one-star mage Lu Xi Belencaster, a newcomer to the Knowledge Alliance."

"Belencaster? Oruseiro Belencaste, who is that old thing? ”

The tone of these words didn't sound very kind, and Lu Xi's heart couldn't help but slowly rise. Teacher, teacher, this kind old man can't be your creditor, right?

"Don't worry, I'm not that guy's creditor."

Uh, I haven't said anything, do you know how to read minds?

"Don't worry, I'm not a magician, and I certainly don't know how to read minds. However, the old man has lived for so many years, and he can be regarded as reading countless people, and you can guess what a young man is thinking. ”…,

Oops, I thought I could do the fabled joy and anger. It seems that the cultivation is still not enough.

"I'm a disciple of Mr. Oruzeiro below, may I ask ......?"

"Oh? That guy finally accepted disciples? I thought that old Buxiu was going to go into the coffin with that skill. The old man looked at Lu Xi seriously again, and saw that the latter's heart was furious, "Well, with the current opinion, it can be regarded as a talent." Well, but when I was young, I still couldn't run away from the test language like white face and sissy, hey, the times have changed, and the aesthetics have changed. ”

"You can rest assured." Lu Xi replied with a smile, "What the teacher needs is someone who can pass on his knowledge and thoughts, not an ape with developed limbs and a simple mind. This truth will not be diverted by the old stubborns' old thinking that can go into a coffin. ”

The old man couldn't help but turn his face: "Boy, if it were when I was young, just a few words from you would be enough for me to hack you to death with a sword." ”

"It's precisely because you're so old that I'm not worried about you killing people in anger, so I dare to say that. Well, then again, isn't it a sign of old age when you open and shut up 'when I was young'? ”

"It's kind of interesting." The old man squinted at Lu Xi for a long time, and couldn't help but let out a cheerful laugh.
