Doctor Strange was embarrassed, he rubbed his temples and said, "I can't help it, I'm a beginner in magic, after the death of the Ancient One, no one has taught me anything, I can only follow her way, even if I know that there is something wrong here, but I can only go on like this." ”

Li Kang shook his head and said, "You just lack courage, you have Wang Wang to take care of, and the New York Sanctuary shelter, so you feel that you still have something to rely on, this false sense of security makes you complacent, and you don't dare to challenge the authority at all, when I was kicked out of the Holy of Holies back then, in addition to being full of resentment, all that was left was less than a year of training results, how old was I at that time?" I'm not yet an adult, and I've come to this point little by little, and many people say that I have achieved what I have today, but if I was as naïve as you, I would have been swallowed by someone with bones. ”

He added, "If you don't find your own path to magic, I suggest you give up magic quickly, because sooner or later you will be devoured by magic, magic is not your crutch, it is a poisonous dragon, if you can tame it, it will take you to heaven and earth, help you defeat strong enemies, let you gain superhuman strength, but if you fail.... I've seen too many examples of failures, you're a good person, you shouldn't have that ending. ”

Doctor Strange's eyes lit up when he heard this, this is a matter of life and death, he doesn't want to go on like this, he didn't learn much magic, but his body collapsed first, and he also concealed the fact that his stomach could not digest the rest of the food except for these things close to magic, and if it went on like this, within three years, his little life would be lost, which explains why Doctor Strange attaches so much importance to the position of the Supreme Mage.

It's not just a matter of honor, it's about life and death.

"So, do you have a way to reverse my physical condition and get me back to normal?" asked Doctor Strange, standing up excitedly.

Li Kang smiled, "I don't have that ability, I'm a black magician, and it's not up to me to heal and save people, but your physical problems are already very serious, what you can do now is to try to maintain the status quo." ”

Doctor Strange sat back in his chair with a little disappointment, "It seems that I am still too blindly optimistic, but it is okay to maintain the status quo, do you have any good ideas?"

Li Kang twisted his eyebrows and said, "I can only say that there is a way, it is not a good way at all, there is a price to pay for magic, this is a worldwide problem, from ancient times to the present, how many genius magicians can not avoid it, but the magic prince Monak found that the price of magic can actually be replaced by the things he loves, he loves rabbits the most, he has raised a large group of rabbits since he was a child, he is a kind white magician, there is no doubt about it, but then World War II began, and as an Englishman, he could only participate in the war. ”

Doctor Strange knows the story of the magical prince Monarque, of course, by now, he is already an old man prince, Monarque is the world's premier master of white magic, during World War II, he and Avalon's companions, together against the Nazi army of black magicians, often one against ten, was the mainstay of World War II, Britain was able to resist the invasion of the Third Reich.

In that kind of high-intensity magic confrontation, Monarque was able to survive, and now he can still eat meat and drink wine in the doorless bar all day long, the last time I saw Monarque, this old man competed with people to eat hamburgers, and even won, the shriveled Monarque actually ate thirty hamburgers, on the other hand, he was almost to the point of vomiting when he drank water, and Doctor Strange was also surprised by this.

"You know, World War II, the lack of strategic materials, Britain is an island country, in the face of the blockade of the Germans, the residents of the island spontaneously grow vegetables or something, to save supplies, Monak raised a large group of rabbits, the total number is probably thousands, all living in the magic space of his home, here to explain, at that time, Monak lived in the London Sanctuary, is the Holy of Holies in the United Kingdom's magic spokesman," Li Kang recounted this history, he will soon talk about how Monarque circumvented the cost of magic, "Didn't I say that? Monarque was very kind, he couldn't bear to watch his companions go back and nibble dry bread after a day of fighting, so he killed the rabbit with his own hands to supplement the influence of his companions, and then something magical happened, just when he killed the rabbit, the magic price magically disappeared, as if he had never performed magic. ”

Doctor Strange nodded repeatedly, "I see, you're asking me to raise rabbits too." ”

Li Kang raised his hand and gestured in the air, "Believe it or not, I slapped you to death! ”

Doctor Strange laughed, "I see what you mean, are you saying that I should also find my beloved pet and then do something about it?" I personally love dogs very, very much, but forget it, let me kill my own pet with my own hands, the mental cost is not much better than the physical cost." ”

Li Kang got up and came to Doctor Strange's side, and said in a low voice, "Who told you that it must be a living thing?" In fact, I have tested it, as long as it is something you spend your effort in, it can be used as a substitute for the price, such as me, I love money, women, cigarettes, Wine and so on, so I spent money on flowers, cigarettes I spent money to buy, I smoked hard, wine is a little worse, because I am busy, often have to use my brain to do things, so I don't drink too much, I finally have a home, but gather less and leave more, this is also the price.... What do you usually like?"

Doctor Strange was stunned, and he said, "I like to make models, collect comic books, collect figurines or something, such as the magical girl Madoka, I collected a full set." ”

Li Kang said disdainfully, "Sizhai steamed goose heart! Is the price of your spell cast today about to be found? You go to your favorite model now, and pray in your heart that this is a sacrifice to magic, and then smash the model to see if your price is reduced." ”

Doctor Strange said embarrassedly, "That's a ten-meter-long model of Queen Anna's Revenge, the flagship of Blackbeard, the strongest pirate in the Caribbean pirates, I put it together piece by piece, and it took a lot of effort." ”

Li Kang said, "Then it depends on what you think, whether the body is important, or the model is important, do you like to eat things like this so much? But it doesn't matter, if it goes on like this, it won't take a year, and when you can't even eat the hand and eye monsters, I'll see what you do." ”

Doctor Strange's face became very ugly, it was simply a choice between flesh and life, and it was no wonder that he had this expression, "Okay, I see. ”

Li Kang nodded with satisfaction, he took out a sterling silver watch from his trench coat and handed it to Doctor Strange, " Because the magic used by mortals is actually very unstable, so the size of the price is also very inconsistent, you hold this watch, it can tell you, how big the price is to find you this time, you look at the hands, the sapphire hands represent that the damage is temporary, and the ruby hands, on behalf of the damage is permanent, if the display number is between nine and twelve o'clock, it may cost you a small life, then you don't have to think about it, immediately sacrifice your most beloved things, don't hesitate, I think it may greatly reduce your losses。 ”

Doctor Strange thanked him again and again, and the result was a sterling silver watch, the strap and shell of this watch were all sterling silver, and there were two hands inside, one long and one short, the long hands were polished with sapphires, and the short hands were polished with rubies, he glanced at Li Kang's windbreaker with a strange expression, this windbreaker can really be loaded, and Li Kang can always take out something unexpected from it.

"Don't hit my trench coat idea!" Li Kang's eyes widened, and he warned sternly.

......

After eating, Li Kang went to Laura's room and watched "Predator 1" with Laura, Governor Arnold is still a perfect muscle, this time his enemy is no longer the villains on Earth, but the Predator from outer space.

Li Kangbai never gets tired of watching this movie, compared with the first part, the second and third parts of the second and third parts have a new Predator, I can't watch it, compare them with Governor Arnold, it's like enlisting Governor Arnold.

As for the rest, the two parts of "Predator vs. Alien" are not comparable at all.

Soon, Wang Wang walked in with a small food truck, and under the food truck was a large bucket of chocolate ice cream and various delicacies.

Li Kang specially asked for champagne, and after so many tribulations, he was able to sit here and eat snacks and watch movies, which in itself is something worth celebrating.

However, Wang Wang's face was suspicious, he pushed the cart to Li Kang's side, and said in a low voice, "Do you know what kind of nerves my master has?"
