Chapter 574 Unclaimed
"Ex.........calibur!"
Luo Quan raised his sword high, shouted the slogan of King Da Mao in the anime, and slashed with his sword.
However, the long sword did not emit any sword energy, and only cut a gap in the thick bush.
Originally Luo Quan just wanted to test whether this thing was really the genuine King's Sword, but after cutting it, he remembered that this move in the anime was just fictional and had no basis at all. Called unreasonable.
As the system said, the earth today is in the Age of Ending Law, and the development of science and technology is the only way out. As for these cultural relics from thousands of years ago, maybe they were really powerful back then, but now they are definitely not much different from ordinary weapons. There is a difference, at most it is sharper.
"What a pity." Luo Quan shook his head and sighed, his dream of gaining supernatural power was in vain again.
Putting away her sword, Luo Quan said sorry to the bush she chopped down, and then returned along the original route along the road sign.
Fortunately, it was in the deserted woods that Luo Quan could make such a shameful move, so that he would not be regarded as mentally ill by others.
After walking for about ten minutes, the signal bar on the phone finally started to move. I looked at the B hot search and saw that there was not much movement this time. I guess fans guessed that the signal might be poor or there was some other disconnection. , so I wasn’t particularly worried.
After the signal was restored, Luo Quan immediately posted a message: "I suddenly lost signal while walking. I walked around the lake alone, which made everyone worried."
People in the comment area immediately came over to show off:
"What do you have to worry about? If you encounter a gangster, I think you should worry about the gangster's personal safety."
"Indeed, with your fighting ability, even the UFC champion is probably no match for you."
"In terms of primates, only the mountain silverback gorilla can compete with you."
"Look who can't afford it? You have to arrange for a big, eye-catching white-fronted insect to be qualified to challenge Luo Quan, right? Let's see who is the strongest mammal!"
"Indeed, she is the woman at the top of the food chain after all."
"What a tiger-fighting heroine."
"My suggestion is the female tyrannosaurus. I don't mean Luo Quan, I mean the challenger."
………………
Looking at these comments in the comment area, Luo Quan was angry and funny. Why did the comment area turn into a zoo competition after reporting safety?
Besides, is she that fierce? She is obviously so gentle no matter whether it is live broadcast or on the show, she has never been rude once.
These haters!
Luo Quan secretly complained in his heart and quit looking at it.
Back at the manor, Leon, who was wasting his life on the master's chair in the back garden, saw his sister returning with a sword. He was so frightened that he quickly climbed up from the chair: "Sister, what's going on with you?"
"I just went shopping in the back mountain and picked up a sword. I thought it was a good thing and wanted to take it back and keep it." Luo Quan held the long sword in front of him and looked at its smooth and bright body carefully for his brother.
"It's pretty good-looking, but you can easily buy it online."
Leon didn't know much about this thing, so he didn't comment too much.
As for weapons, he prefers firearms.
In the face of hot weapons, any cold weapon is worth mentioning, regardless of power or speed.
Long swords are now more of a decoration or a symbol of honor, but their actual combat performance is really not that good.
Just like a competition held in Europe specifically for cold weapon fighting enthusiasts, all enthusiasts can wear armor and weapons to fight for real.
Almost no one knows how to carry a long sword, and they basically use a sledgehammer or an axe, because only this kind of blunt instrument can effectively hit heavy armor.
This theorem is applicable anywhere in the world.
However, in terms of appearance alone, this sword looks really good. It looks like a high-end product at first glance, but I don’t know if it is handmade.
It is said that cloud patterns can be seen on weapons that have been tempered for thousands of times. Anyway, this sword does not seem to have any. It is probably hydraulically produced by modern machines, so it is so smooth.
"Can I buy this thing online?" Luo Quan wanted to refute, but in the end he endured it.
You still have to ask grandpa about the specific origin of this thing to see if he knows.
Because even if this sword is not the sword of kings, it is definitely an important British cultural relic with its thousands of years of history. It would definitely be irresponsible for her to take it away so quietly.
Of course, if grandpa didn't know about it, then Luo Quan would have to be very embarrassed and take it for herself. After all, she is Chinese and has no awareness of handing over foreign cultural relics to the country.
Besides, Britain has devoured so many treasures from China, so it shouldn’t be too much for her to take a handful, since no one would claim them anyway.
"By the way, where is grandpa?" Luo Quan asked Leon as he didn't see the old man in the back garden.
Leon replied in a deep voice: "I just finished telling the family history to those little guys, and now I am dealing with a group of old guys in the front hall. They said they want to discuss the handover of the next clan leader."
"Oh, it's probably my second uncle who was elected." Luo Quan nodded thoughtfully.
The big family is more or less vying for power. The only good news is that her uncles and aunts are all Buddhists. They each have their own careers and have no special ideas about the huge family property.
The second uncle was very keen on fighting for it, but since he was the only one fighting, the atmosphere still seemed relatively harmonious.
At least the siblings didn't fight each other. Of course, this was all due to her father. As the eldest brother, he took the initiative to withdraw from the competition, which can be regarded as playing a leading role.
The loss is definitely a big loss. After all, it is a family with tens of billions of assets and a company with a market value of hundreds of billions. With so much money, many dreams can be realized, even traveling to heaven or Mars is not impossible.
Wasn't there a richest man who organized such a trip before? He took a group of rich people who were tired of living on earth to go to outer space, although they were unable to land due to technical reasons.
But it's actually okay. Since her assets exceeded 100 million, her desire for money is not that strong.
Even if she has invested in a big project now and needs to spend a lot of money, she just doesn't have that much on hand. In fact, she has N ways to make money, but she is just too lazy to do it.
Eric's family probably all have the same idea. Whether it's him, Luo Quan or Lyon, they are so rich that they actually don't care about the family property anymore.
Therefore, even if they heard that a family meeting was being held, and even if Luo Quan and Leon were fully qualified to attend, the siblings just stayed in the back garden drinking iced Coke and had no intention of going to the front hall.
After about half an hour, a group of old and young men came back to the back garden to relax. The second uncle walked in front, smiling proudly. It seemed that he got what he wanted.
"Second uncle." After the siblings saw him, they raised their hands to say hello.
When Andre saw his nephew and niece, he seemed to have thought of something and froze for a moment. He who was originally so vigorous and resolute seemed to hesitate to speak.
Fortunately, he quickly adjusted, looked at Luo Quan and said, "Is your mother's health okay after she became pregnant?"
"Not bad." Luo Quan nodded, "But I haven't been with her recently, so I don't know very well. When this matter is over, I will go to the United States to accompany her."
"Indeed, you should feel more at ease around you." Andre smiled, "Second uncle has something to do here, so I'll leave first."
"Why does the second uncle look so awkward?" Luo Quan was a little confused.
Leon laughed: "When joy and guilt rush into my heart together, you will be the same as my second uncle."
While they were chatting, Charles came over. The siblings looked over and found that their grandfather seemed to be much more relaxed, as if he had lost some courage.
"Grandpa." Luo Quan walked up with the sword in hand, "I just picked up a sword at the lakeside cabin in the back mountain. I don't know who inserted it there, so I almost fell down."
"Did you fall?" Charles glanced at his precious granddaughter's feet worriedly, "Are you injured? Do you need some medicine?"
"I'm fine. I'm in good health." Luo Quan chuckled, "I mainly want to ask you if you know who this sword belongs to."
Charles raised the sword, looked at it, then shook his head and said: "There should be no such thing in the family collection. You just mentioned the wooden house. It was originally the residence of the ranger, but the original ranger resigned long ago. The new one has arrived." He doesn’t live there, so this thing probably belongs to the ranger who has resigned.”
"Do you have his contact information?" Luo Quan asked.
Charles shook his head: "It's been so many years, I guess I can't contact him anymore, and that forest ranger is older than your grandfather and I, and I don't know if he's still alive or not.
If you like it, just keep it yourself. It's not a valuable treasure anyway. "
However, to be on the safe side, Charles called Butler Barry to inquire about the forest ranger. After all, the Albert family was not the type to like to take advantage of others.
But Butler Barry called all the previous forest rangers, and those he could still contact had no impression of the sword, and those who couldn't be contacted couldn't be contacted.
It seems that this thing is ownerless.
Luo Quan held the long sword and thought in his heart.
"Please make a scabbard for this sword and send it to the United States." Luo Quan handed the sword to Barry's butler and said.
The next day, the "ancestor money" Luo Quan bought on Taobao was delivered on time. Because he bought the Chinese version, this set of configurations also has Chinese characteristics.
In addition to a large number of underworld coins with the Jade Emperor printed on them, there are also villas, sports cars, gold ingots and other things made of paper.
There is also a one-to-one scale mahjong machine and two matching sets of traditional paper mahjong.
The service was so attentive that Luo Quan couldn't help but go back and give it a five-star review. No wonder they can do business abroad.
After the Ming coins were prepared, Charles took his entire family to the back mountain.
All the relatives in the family have returned, and the family here are all direct blood of Albert, that is, Charles's children and his children's children.
The only ones who are not here are Eric, who is still with his wife in the United States, and Angela, who is also in the United States.
There were about thirty people in the group including maids, housekeepers, and servants. In addition to ghost coins and various paper tributes, they also brought some other props.
For example, metal boxes, fire extinguishers, etc. After all, you are setting a fire in the mountains, so you still need to take the necessary measures.
The group walked in the forest for nearly forty minutes and entered a valley. There was a cemetery in the valley, and all the members of the Albert family were buried in it.
"Those are my dad and mom, those are my grandpa and grandma." The old man pointed to each grave and said to his grandchildren.
These graves all have two tombstones close together, with a cedar tree on either side of the tombstone.
And deep in the cemetery, there is an incredibly thick cedar tree. There are many metal plaques hanging on the tall branches. It is estimated that the names of the people buried here are written on them.
The tombs here are basically in pairs, but there is a relatively new tomb with only one tombstone erected there.
The old man walked over slowly, his eyes full of tenderness: "This is your grandma. She has been here for many years. She is pitiful to be alone."
When the two daughters heard this, their eyes immediately became wet, and they took out tissues to wipe their tears. The eyes of the second uncle and the fourth uncle were also a little red.
No matter how outstanding they are and how powerful they are outside, here, in front of their deceased relatives, they are just children.
After a long sigh, the servants, under the guidance of the butler, carefully placed the iron box on the ground and put a lid on it.
Then, a group of foreigners took the ghost coins and didn't know what to do.
Charles also heard about it and originally thought he wanted to grab it and throw it into the iron box to light it. Fortunately, Luo Quan came out in time, twisted the coins one by one, then grabbed them and threw them into the flames in the box.
The others followed suit and started tearing up together.
I have never brought so many people here to worship before. Everyone just took a look, said a few words and then went back.
This time, under Luo Quan's demonstration, there were many more procedures, such as lighting incense and candles, offering fruits, tearing paper money, and worshiping, and it suddenly became full of ritual feeling.
The atmosphere in the entire cemetery became very solemn. When the old man saw so many things burned for his relatives, he felt greatly comforted and his face became much better.
The worship lasted for about half an hour. After the paper money was burned, the servants put out the fire everywhere, and then checked everywhere to see if there were any paper ashes or sparks.
After ensuring that there are no hidden dangers, everyone returns to the original route.
After the worship service was completed, the Luoquan and Lyon siblings said goodbye to their grandfather the next day and boarded a plane back to New York.
Before leaving, grandpa gave each of his siblings a thick booklet, asking them to keep it carefully so as not to lose it.
After getting on the plane, I opened it and saw that it was a real estate certificate from the United States!
