"Where did you go?!" A crisp voice sounded, and then Xia Yun felt a pain in the back of his head, "You're really not afraid of death if you eat this kind of thing every day!" The hair on that bread is longer than the weeds at the door! ”

It's a familiar pain. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xia Yun grinned and rubbed the place where he was beaten, he didn't need to look at who it was.

"Sister Qi, next time, tap it......"

Xia Yun turned around, and in front of him was a girl about twelve years old.

The girl was wearing a neat and tidy pale pink dress, and she was carrying a small basket in one hand, which looked out of place with Xia Yun's dilapidated house.

This girl is Xia Yun's cousin "Xia Qi", and her family background is still good, she is considered a middle-level person in Lingshui City, and she is naturally very different from a completely low-level character like Xia Yun.

When Xia Yun's parents were still there, the two families had some intersections, but since Xia Yun's parents had an accident, Xia Yun had only seen his uncle when those relatives divided his family property.

However, his cousin "Xia Qi" often came to visit him, and even this small house was kept by Xia Qi for him.

"I told you, next time, don't be greedy for this little cheap to buy this kind of moldy bread," Xia Qi stared at Xia Yun viciously, "Do you know that no one cares if you eat bad and get sick?!" Last time, your medicine was paid by your sister and me. ”

Xia Yun touched his nose and didn't dare to say anything.

"Hey, you're still like this here, it's the same every time you come over." Xia Qi frowned, obviously she was very dissatisfied with this dirty and messy room.

As he spoke, Xia Qi waved his hand.

"Whew."

A fresh breeze rose out of thin air and circled the room, kicking up a large cloud of dust and garbage, which was then wrapped in a brush and blown out of the room.

The room was a lot cleaner all of a sudden.

Xia Yun looked at it and looked a little envious.

His cousin, Xia Qi, is a magician!

A magician is a noble profession, and to become a magician, you must have a high talent for magic, and you must also have a magical secret book and so on. Magical talent is very rare, and among ordinary people, it can be said that it is one in a million who can have the talent of a magician. Even in some magical families with excellent magician blood, there are a large number of people who have no magical talent.

In the entire Lingshui City, counting Xia Qi, there are less than ten magicians, and the rarity of magicians can be seen.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Suzumi City is a remote city, and if it is a central city, such as the Khiva Imperial Capital, magicians are of course more common.

"Much cleaner." Xia Qi reached out and touched the table, said with satisfaction, and then threw the basket on the table, "For you." ”

Xia Yun opened the basket, and inside was an oily paper bag.

"A little bit to eat," Xia Qi said casually, sighing, his voice a little lowered, "Let's eat a little better." My sister probably won't be here for a while, so you have to take care of yourself. ”

Xia Yun suddenly shuddered.

"My sister is going to Shiva Didu tomorrow." Xia Qi said softly, "I don't know when I will come back next time." ”

Xia Yun bit his lip and didn't speak.

He knew that Xia Qi had a very good talent as a magician, and she had been admitted to a magic academy in Shiva Didu during a test this year, and it was only a matter of time before she went to Shiva Didu.

Xia Yun was naturally reluctant.

After the accident of her parents a few years ago, her sister Xia Qi often came to take care of herself, and she never disliked herself, compared with those relatives who only had gold coins in their eyes, Xia Qi was simply better I don't know how much.

"Sister Qi, don't worry, I'm helping out with Master Lin now, and I can live well." Xia Yun barely showed a smile and said to Xia Qi.

"Yes," Xia Qi smiled, reaching out and rubbing Xia Yun's head, "Master Lin is a very powerful alchemist, and it will be beneficial for you to study hard over there." ”

"En," Xia Yun nodded hurriedly and said, "Master Lin accepted me as a disciple today, and my sister doesn't have to worry about me." ”

"Master Lin has accepted you as a disciple?" Xia Qi was suddenly surprised, "Don't lie to me." ”

She knew that Xia Yun would not lie to her, but the fact that Master Lin accepted disciples was still shocking enough.

Xia Yun may not know, but she still knows very well what a big man that "Master Lin" is.

"When did I ever lie to my sister?" Xia Yun took off the pendant that Master Lin gave him from his neck, handed it to Xia Qi, and said proudly, "This is what Master Lin gave me!" ”

Xia Qi looked carefully at the seemingly simple pendant in her hand, but as a magician, she could only barely sense the faint and powerful magic power fluctuations in the pendant.

It's definitely not something simple.

Xia Qi was sure that this pendant was definitely given to Xia Yun by Master Lin.

In the entire Lingshui City, it is impossible for anyone except Master Lin to come up with a magic treasure of this level.

"Remember to hide it and never show it to others." Xia Qi returned the pendant to Xia Yun and asked.

"Yes." Xia Yun nodded, even if Xia Qi didn't say it, he knew that he had to hide it, "By the way, Master Lin asked me to start living with him tomorrow." ”

Xia Qi's face showed joy: "Then I'll rest assured." ”

Xia Yun can follow Master Lin, naturally nothing will happen.

The originally somewhat oppressive and dull atmosphere suddenly dissipated.

……

"If you become an alchemy master in the future, remember to go to Shiva Didu to see me." Before leaving, Xia Qi rubbed Xia Yun's hair and said with a smile.

"I will!" Xia Yun nodded, a determined light in his eyes.

He knew that his sister went to the magic academy in Shiva Didu, and after graduation, he was afraid that she would have to stay in the imperial capital, and he studied with Master Lin, and if he wanted to complete his studies, he would have to go to Shiva Didu to find his sister, which was not an easy thing that could be completed in a year and a half.

Seeing Xia Qi's departing figure quickly disappear into the night, Xia Yun felt that his eyes were a little moist.

Sister Qi, wait for me, I will become an excellent alchemist and then go to the Khiva Imperial Capital! You won't be disappointed.

Xia Yun glared fiercely, not letting the tears overflow, and secretly made up his mind in his heart.

The next day, Xia Yun packed up his things and moved to Master Lin's alchemy workshop.

There are not a lot of things, just a few shabby clothes, but the basket of food that Xia Qi threw at him accounts for more than half.

Master Lin's alchemy workshop rarely started this day, and there are only Xia Yun and Master Lin in the entire alchemy workshop now.

"Xiaoyun, is that all you have to do?" Master Lin looked at Xia Yun's small package and was a little speechless.

A basket of food, a couple of clothes, and a small bag of coins, and that's it.

"Hey." Master Lin shook his head, "It's better to throw away the clothes, it's not good for my apprentice to wear this kind of clothes, old man." ”

"Huh?" Xia Yun looked a little reluctant.

"Of course I have clothes ready for you!" Master Lin's face twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but increase his tone a little, and said, "Follow me." ”

Xia Yun immediately obediently followed.

After many twists and turns, Master Lin took Xia Yun to a small room.

This is a small room in the depths of the complex alchemy workshop, there is no window in the room, it is lit with magic lamps, it is bright, clean and tidy, there is a bed in the room, a table, a chair and a wardrobe, and there is a separate bathroom on one side, it is not big, but compared to the small house where Xia Yun lived before, this room does not know how much better.

"There are clothes in the closet, which may be a little inappropriate, so let's do it first." Master Lin said, "This room is yours, stay here in the future, remember to clean it every day." There are no windows in this room, so it's fine. ”

Xia Yun nodded again and again.

Such a good room, he has not lived in it since he was born, and there is nothing to be dissatisfied with now that he can live.

It took a morning for Master Lin to explain all kinds of things to Xia Yun, and after taking Xia Yun to lunch, Master Lin took Xia Yun to a quiet room.

The ashram is an empty room with a soft carpet on the floor, and nothing else.

The room is surrounded by a faint fragrance that calms the mood.

"Xiaoyun." Master Lin sat in the center of the quiet room and spoke, at this time, Xia Yun was sitting in front of Master Lin in a clean and tidy new clothes.

"Master!" Xia Yun sat up straight, respectfully.

"Starting today, you have to study this book well." Master Lin waved his hand lightly, and a book appeared in front of Xia Yun out of thin air.

Xia Yun looked carefully.

Introduction to the Wizard

Very simple title.

"From today onwards, you start cultivating according to the methods above in this book, and when you become a third-level magician, I will teach you alchemy." Master Lin said solemnly.

"Magic ...... Enchanter? Xia Yun was stunned.

"What's wrong?" A smile hung on the corner of Master Lin's mouth, "What do you think is an alchemist?" ”

"Alchemist......" Xia Yun pondered for a moment before he said, "the one who combines various materials to make various alchemy items." ”

In Xia Yun's eyes, alchemists seem to be similar to those craftsmen, maybe it's just the difference in the materials used, right?

"Yes, it's not." Master Lin seemed to see through Xia Yun's thoughts and spoke, "Among the alchemists, the vast majority are magicians! If you are not a powerful magician, it is absolutely impossible to be a good alchemist. ”

As he spoke, Master Lin raised his hand.

A stream of energy visible to the naked eye quickly gathered on Master Lin's palm.

Xia Yun's gaze was immediately drawn to it.

For a moment, it seemed that the heavens and the earth were darkened, and that mass of energy seemed to have become the center of this world, and various phantoms appeared, and an indescribable terrifying oppressive force penetrated and spread from it.

Xia Yun gritted his teeth and resisted desperately under this terrifying pressure, a trace of cold sweat oozed from his forehead and rolled down.

"Poof!"

Master Lin grabbed it lightly, and the ball of energy shattered like a bubble, disappearing without a trace, as if it had never appeared.

"Huhu......" Xia Yun reacted at this time, gasping for breath, remembering the scene just now, and still had palpitations.

"It's scary...... I don't know what level of magician Master Lin is. Xia Yun thought to himself.

Because of Xia Qi's relationship, Xia Yun still knows a little about magicians.

Magicians are simply divided into nine levels, from level one to level nine.

His cousin Xia Qi is a second-level wind magician, Xia Yun once saw Xia Qi easily split a stone with a wind knife, and at that time he felt that Xia Qi was very powerful.

But in the face of Master Lin, Xia Yun couldn't imagine Master Lin's terrifying power at all.

"Maybe with Master Lin's move, Lingshui City will be destroyed, right?" Xia Yun thought.

When he was a child, he also read and heard a lot of biographical novels, including descriptions of many powerful gods, smashing a majestic mountain with one punch, churning the sea with one palm, and so on.

In Xia Yun's eyes, Master Lin was suddenly raised to this level, Master Lin's oppressive power just now was too terrifying, and for a short while, Xia Yun felt that all his senses were about to be lost.

"How?" Master Lin looked at Xia Yun with a smile.

Xia Yun wiped the sweat dripping from his face, and seemed to be a little stunned.

"All kinds of alchemy materials have different characteristics, and simple matching and smelting can't exert an effect," Master Lin touched his beard and explained to Xia Yun, "Whether it's blending alchemy materials, or drawing magic circuits, etc., you need enough mana to support it." ”

Xia Yun nodded, as if he didn't understand.

"By the way?" Xia Yun was taken aback, "What about the magic talent?" ”

If you don't have magical talent, you can't be a magician, and naturally you can't be an alchemist.

If you can't become an alchemist......

Xia Yun felt that his heart was in chaos. Obviously yesterday was still full of hope, and promised her sister that she would definitely become a very powerful alchemist to find her.

What if you can't become an alchemist because you don't have a talent for magic? There is no one in a world who has a gift for magic.

"Huh." Master Lin looked at Xia Yun, showed a hint of a smile, and said, "Xiaoyun, do you know what a magical talent is?" ”

Xia Yun felt that his brain was dizzy, and he shook his head in confusion.

"What about magical talent...... It is divided into two aspects. Master Lin raised his hand and lightly touched Xia Yun's head.

Xia Yun suddenly felt a clear stream surging from Master Lin's fingers, and immediately felt a shock to his spirit, and the feeling he had just been in a trance disappeared.

"What about the first aspect...... It's the soul. After Xia Yun was sober, Master Lin continued.

"Soul?"

Xia Yun subconsciously muttered, and fell into great confusion about this ethereal thing.

What is the soul? How is it? What does it take to have a magical talent for souls?

"Souls...... There are also many sayings, spirit, consciousness and so on, all the same, in the final analysis, it is the soul. Master Lin explained to Xia Yun, "Whether it's humans, demonic beasts, elves, etc...... They all have souls, and without souls, no matter how healthy and strong the body is, there will be no life, and it will only be an empty flesh shell......"

Unconsciously, Master Lin talked farther and farther.

Xia Yun didn't listen at all, he just wanted to know now...... Does he have enough magical talent to practice magic?

"It's far away, it's far away." Master Lin noticed Xia Yun's nervous demeanor, immediately smiled, and quickly turned back to business, "The conditions for cultivating magic are very simple, as long as the soul is strong enough to reach a certain limit, you can practice magic." ”

"Reaching the limit?" Xia Yun's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Master, has my soul reached the limit?" ”

"Haha." Master Lin touched his beard, but did not answer Xia Yun's question directly, "Whether the soul is strong or not, in fact, the most superficial manifestation lies in the sensitivity to external energy. People whose souls are strong enough can easily feel the power of various heaven and earth elements. Of course, if the soul is not strong enough, there is no need to worry at all, there are also meditation methods among magicians, even ordinary people, regular meditation can also strengthen the soul, so that the soul is strong enough to practice magic......"

Of course, Xia Yun didn't listen to Master Lin's words later.

At this moment, there were only a few words left in Xia Yun's head.

Whether the soul is strong or not, in fact, the most obvious manifestation lies in the sensitivity to external energy......

"I can even sense the energy in those alchemy materials...... My soul...... It must be very powerful, and it can fully meet the needs of cultivating magic! Xia Yun thought excitedly.

"Master...... Then my soul ......" Xia Yun's eyes lit up, looked at Master Lin, and said.

"Your soul?" Master Lin smiled, looked at Xia Yun's expectant eyes and said, "I have never practiced magic, and I have no meditation method, your soul is the most powerful one I have ever seen in my life." I'm afraid that the souls of those fifth- or sixth-level magicians who have undergone meditation cultivation and training are not as strong as yours, and the souls that are so strong innate are not a problem to meet the conditions. ”

"That'...... Am I satisfied? Xia Yun hurriedly asked.

"That's nature." Master Lin nodded and gave Xia Yun an accurate answer.

What Master Lin didn't say was that the stronger the innate soul, the higher the achievements in the future.

A person who has relied on meditation to make his soul strong enough to become a magician will have countless higher achievements and potential than a person who is born with a strong soul and can directly become a magician.
