The young Taoist priest knelt beside Charles and placed several blue talismans on his limbs. He then took out a silver lightning talisman and stuck it on Charles's head.
"Alright, stay still, and I'll send you on your way." With that, the young Taoist priest, Zhang Haoming, formed a hand seal and chanted an incantation.
"Yuqing Shiqing, Zhenfu Gaomeng, Tuixiao Erqi, Hun Yi Cheng Zhen. Wulei Wulei, Jihui Huangning, Yingyun Bianhua, Hudian Xunting, Wenhu Jizhi..."
Before he could finish the incantation, Lin Zhan covered his mouth. "Brother-in-law, calm down, calm down. It's not worth it."
Little Tuanzi Lin Ya'er also ran down from Di Xin's embrace, grabbed Zhang Haoming, and said, "Xiao Ming, we are good children. We don't kill people. It's so dirty with blood. From now on, leave this dirty and tiring work to my big brother."
After speaking, she pulled Zhang Haoming to sit next to Di Xin and said to a nearby maid, "Sister, what delicious food does my brother have? Get some for me to eat too."
The Lin family maid looked at the two chubby children in front of her and chuckled. "Okay, Miss Ya'er, please wait. Young Master has hidden a lot of good food. I'll get it for you."
Lin Zhan looked at the two gluttonous children with a dark expression. So, in his sister's heart, he was just a guy who did dirty work.
He then looked at Charles and said, "You, why can't you control your beastly nature? You've even played yourself to death this time. Alas, don't blame me when you meet the King of Hell. Oh right, you're not Chinese, so you won't meet the King of Hell. Then what am I afraid of?"
Lin Zhan grumbled as he took out a Flying Shark Chain Blade, preparing to perform a little knife in the butt... (⊙o⊙) Uh, a little knife to the neck.
Seeing that her big brother had already taken out a knife, Little Tuanzi quickly said, "Big Brother, wait, don't do it yet."
The people from Great Britain's eyes lit up, and they all looked at Little Tuanzi, sighing in their hearts: What a kind and good child.
Little Tuanzi, with a large glutinous rice ball in her mouth, continued, "Brother, pull him further away. Otherwise, it will be so bloody that I won't be able to eat."
Charles (⊙o⊙)... Where did the kind child go? So I was just afraid of being disgusted by me, ┭┮﹏┭┮ Your Majesty, I want to return to Great Britain. China is too scary.
William (⊙o⊙)...
Lancelot (⊙o⊙)...
Lin Zhan said helplessly, "Alas, what can I do? She's my sister. If I don't dote on her, who will?"
With that, he picked up Charles and planned to walk further away.
William saw that whether this matter was true or false, he had to speak. Otherwise, his cheap brother was also a man who valued his reputation. If he was really provoked, he would definitely not spare Charles.
"Sumimasen, Big Brother, Sumimasen." William blurted out the colloquialisms his Fusang teachers used at home in his anxiety.
"Nani." Lin Zhan was stunned and, perhaps out of politeness, replied in the same Fusang language.
William hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Big Brother, spare him one more life. According to the rules, ransom him."
After speaking, William was a little confused himself: Why did I say "one more"?
Lin Zhan glanced at the young Taoist priest Zhang Haoming and said, "I only have this one sister, the only little princess of the Lin family. My Lin family's ancestors for generations, including Kings, Human Kings, and Human Emperors, are all alive, and Ya'er is my full sister, the most beloved joy of the ancestors. Therefore... you have to pay more."
After a long preamble, Lancelot and the other two felt their hearts grow cold. Especially Charles, who thought he was dead for sure, but unexpectedly, there was a turn of events.
William breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Big Brother, let's not pay more. One price, I'll pay monthly, okay?"
Lin Zhan and the others were all stunned. "Holy crap, there's this kind of operation."
Finally, under the condition that William added another year's military expenditure to Lin Zhan, Charles's life was saved.
When they were preparing to remove the talismans from Charles, the young Taoist priest Zhang Haoming walked over with a swagger, stating that each Lord-level crystal core was one million, and there were five in total. If he didn't pay, he would remove them himself, and whoever exploded would be his own bad luck.
William waved his hand and directly stated that he would have people deliver the resources to the Heavenly Master's Mansion tomorrow. After all, the bulk of the cost had already been paid, so he didn't care about these minor expenses.
After the matter was over, Lancelot greeted Lin Zhan first, did not even look at Charles again, and directly boarded the aircraft and fled.
A day later, Lancelot, having returned to Great Britain, immediately arranged for servants to prepare food for him.
The rest of the royal high-ranking officials looked at the leader of the Knights of the Round Table, who had lost all his gentlemanly demeanor, with great curiosity.
After feasting on a large meal, Lancelot met his teacher, the former Lancelot, and burst into tears.
Later, everyone learned that Lancelot had not eaten for two days and had already paid the ransom for Charles.
Meanwhile, the Lin family, who had profited handsomely, prepared a grand family banquet to welcome Zhang Qingxuan, the Heavenly Master of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, as Lin Zhan's number five still relied on him for help in engraving formations.
At the same time, William and Dragon Knight Charles, while eating dinner, stared blankly at the food on the table. It turned out that the young Taoist priest did not agree to extend the payment period but instead made William and the other two pay the money on the spot, resulting in the people of Great Britain not even having basic necessities.
Charles gnawed on the vegetables on the table and said to William, "Your Highness, it will take at least another week for the royal family to send us money. How will we live during this period?"
William glanced at the surrounding servants and said, "It's good enough that we can eat. Look at what we servants are eating, just a small piece of bread each. It's all your fault. If you wanted to court death, you should have waited until the resources from home arrived. How can you cause trouble continuously?"
Charles knew he had messed up and implicated everyone, so he said softly, "Who knew they valued a girl so much? I thought our royal status was much higher than that of a second daughter of a family. Who knew it would turn out like this? And who knew a six-year-old girl was already engaged, and her fiancé's family was so powerful? Besides, you also instructed me. It's not my fault."
William looked at the quibbling Charles and said irritably, "So you're blaming me instead of yourself? I told you to test the waters slowly, but you directly proposed. Also, I told you to read more books, but you never listened. I gave you the information on various families in China. Did you read it? Do you know how many experts there are in the Chinese royal court? With your little strength, they wouldn't even want you to sweep the streets. How could our royal family have such a prodigal like you?"
