Chapter 7: On the Boat, Begins
There is indeed a hole in the door. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 As soon as I went in, I could see a large pile of tables with food, on the suspended ceiling, candles burning, providing bright lighting, and there seemed to be a lot of people my age inside, and I mean, of course, on the physical level.
A lot of people gathered here, and they could clearly see me "Hey, man. ”
A boy of about fourteen was greeting me, "Welcome, you're also a chosen wizard apprentice, aren't you?" he pointed to a wooden box not far away, "Go get the key, good luck." "Thank you. "Oh, the lottery to get the key, it's all a matter of luck, it's not bad, it's fair, I hope I don't get too bad luck.
Put your hand into the hole in the wooden box and take out the key, which has a wooden plaque with the number 302 on it
There was a seat next to the boy just now, and I sat there, "Hello, I'm Albert." "It's a great honor. That's what they seem to say, I'm Paxson. I picked up a fruit on the table, "Where are you from, Paxson?" The fruit tastes like an orange, but the skin is purple and the flesh is slightly reddish "I haven't heard your accent." ”
"I'm from one, uh. Speaking of this, he was a little unconfident: "You must not have heard the name of the small mountain village." ”
"I'm about the same. "After peeling the fruit, I try to be as kind as possible" I don't come from a small mountain village, but it is also a very remote village. ”
"So hopefully we'll have a good two days. Paxon pouted, and made me look at a few brightly dressed children on the table not far away, "I don't think it's going to be good anyway, those people are the sons of lords or rich people, and they don't treat us as human beings at all." ”
"Anyway, they do theirs, we do ours. He nodded in agreement. "Ah, you haven't eaten yet. "yes, what's wrong?"
"You should eat more, I heard them say that the next voyage is going to be long, and our food will be terrible!" "Really?" "Of course! "Thanks for the reminder, I haven't had such a big dinner. "The things on the table were indeed sumptuous, with chicken thighs, beef, chicken, cured meats, all kinds of fruits, and I had never had such a sumptuous dinner since I had crossed.
When I was full, I quietly packed some fruits and cured meats into my waist, which were things that could not be contained, of course I was not a thief, and I couldn't hide it from the person next to me, "Hey." What are you doing?" "Prepare for the days ahead. I didn't stop, and I said, "Didn't you say that the food was going to be terrible in the coming days?" ”
"Then why don't you hurry up and prepare some food to make the rest of the days better?" Paxson searched for words in his head, trying to stop me, "People in our village say it's wrong to steal. ”
My bags weren't full, and I continued to store food like a hamster, "Is this food for us?" "Do they have a rule that you can't take away food?" "No?" "Then you can't steal." "But... But.. He couldn't speak, but he still subconsciously wanted to stop me.
I finally filled it, glanced at him, and asked one last question: "Is it important to be hungry or is it important to say what people in your village say?" Asked this, he tilted his head and thought for a while, and finally nodded, and also began to pack the food that could be stored for a long time, "Okay, you're right. ”
After dinner, we started walking to our respective rooms, and Paxson asked for my room number, "What's your number?" "302. "Then it looks like we're neighbors. He took out his key, and the number on it was 301, but my focus wasn't on that, "Do you know how to count?"
"I went to the village elementary school. "Well, their little mountain village seems pretty good.
There are five floors in the room, the first floor is on the top, it is the best room, the fifth floor is the lowest floor, the living environment is the worst, I got the middle number, bad luck is not bad, he and I were about to look for our room, Maxim came to me, "I need to tell you something." "What's the matter, senior?"
"I live in 101~109 with several other wizards, according to the previous practice, you can find your own guide, that is, me, and ask three questions, I am in 108, you have to remember, don't make a mistake. "I see, sir. ”
According to the number, we went down to the third floor, walked to the end of the aisle, and finally saw our room, each said that we would see God, and walked into the room, the room was very small, only seven or eight square meters at most, but it was all in order. There were windows, small tables, chairs, and a hard wooden bed with no stuff.
The room was surprisingly clean, and I could still smell the sea breeze, with a fishy smell mixed with salty dampness.
It's finally officially begun, in every sense of the word.
In just one day, I left the village where I had lived for six years, completely disconnected from my previous life, became a magic apprentice, experienced what it was like to fly, albeit badly, and got into a big ship for the first time ever.
I felt that all this was a little too fast, so fast that I had a kind of illusory feeling, but this small room, the wooden bed under the butt that was so hard that even I felt panicked, and the smell of the sea breeze, made me clearly feel the reality of everything, in fact, it was nothing, and the crossing itself was even more strange and unbelievable.
I suddenly remembered my former family in the original world, and then realized that I didn't miss anything at all.
In that world, I have lived almost completely, and I still remember the life, old age, sickness and death, joys and sorrows of my life, and I personally feel that these valuable experiences accumulated in the course of my life will play a role.
At least it will save me from some detours.
I suddenly remembered the novels I had read before, there were many novels that talked about wizards, what kind of people did the protagonists in the books become in the end? must have become very powerful, although reality has repeatedly announced to me the illusory nature of the plot in the novel, I still have some yearning, but I know that there is no such thing in the world as a matter of unearned gain, and after entering the academy, there will definitely be a lot to learn, and maybe there will be exams.
I don't expect my grades to be good, at least not too bad, I don't ask too much, just get by, anyway, I'm not a genius myself, and I easily surpass the natives and stuff, I didn't think about it at all.
I can't be as energetic and energetic as a young person.
The edges and corners have long been polished.
