Volume 1 The Beginning of the Magic Sword Chapter 28, there are many good wine people in the world
Sescheria's Bar, located on the only shopping street in Santa La Ruca, can be seen even by first-time visitors.
On the flagpole more than ten meters high, there is a huge blue signboard with a big word "wine" written on it.
There is no shortage of good drinkers anywhere, although it is ten in the afternoon, the bar still has a sparse number of drinkers, leisurely drinking, enjoying their own leisure time, no one discusses loudly, no one makes noise, the whole bar hall, it seems very quiet, the only sound is the pleasant sound of the piano.
In the corner of the bar, the sound of a piano can be heard in the dim place, tinkling, ding, knocking, sometimes relaxed and cheerful, sometimes high-pitched and bright.
On one of the rows of barstools in front of the bar, on one of them, sat with his back to the door, with his gray thinning hair, neatly combed, dressed in a brown short coat, and nodding his hands to the beat of the piano. On the side of the stool, leaning on a redwood cane, the head bend was polished to a shiny shine, and it could be seen that the crutch had been used for a certain number of years.
"Hello, are you Mentor Xida?" Ye Ya looked around, except for the violinist in this bar, there was only this one, which was the most in line with the description of the old man by the third deputy head of Yu Lilu, so he walked to the old man's side and stood still, and asked softly.
The old man closed his eyes, his expression was enjoying, his forehead moved, his right hand was paddling in the air with the music, and his left hand was gently tapping on the solid wood bar, and the wine glass on the table had bottomed out, and the foam unique to sparkling wine was stained at the bottom of the glass.
When people get older, their ears are back, and Ye Ya can't help but get close to the old man's ears again: "May I ask ......?"
"Shhh......hhh
It turned out that he was not deaf, Ye Ya didn't dare to say this, stood aside, and obediently waited for the music to end.
Magician, the pride of the sky, has a weird temper, it is inevitable, especially when he is old, so even if the stool is half a meter beside him, Ye Ya does not dare to sit down.
The performer, also an old man, had his snow-white hair meticulously combed, much denser than this one, his eyes closed, making and enjoying the music, his emaciated body swaying from side to side, his shoulders shrugging up and down with the movement of his arms.
The sound of the piano stopped in a series of flowers, the old man opened his eyes and clapped his palms softly, and the bar resounded with sparse applause, the old man who played the piano stood up, turned around and bowed to all the drinkers, slowly walked to one of the tables and sat down, raised his glass and signaled to the old man, the old man picked up the empty wine glass, gestured at his mouth, made a drinking motion, and then put the glass down.
"It's rude to interrupt someone else's enjoyment...... The young man ......" The old man touched the crutches, propped himself up and got down from the barstool, and asked Ye Ya: "What's the matter with me?"
"My name is Ye Ya and I am a trainee magician. Ye Ya replied, "Come and learn powerful spells from you......" At the same time, he took out a text message specially written by His Excellency Yulilu.
The old man took the letter and opened it, leaned against the bar, and squinted at it for a long time by the light.
"I see...... This girl ran away? cough...... Young people are willing to follow the little girl...... I don't like to follow me, an old man...... What if she's running away now......" he said, walking towards the door.
Ye Ya didn't know the relationship between the two, of course he didn't know what to say, and followed the old man to the door of the bar.
The old man opened the door of the bar, and without knowing what he thought, he took his foot back and turned quickly.
Don't look at the old man's age, his movements are not slow at all, he just happened to meet Ye Ya, the old man looked at Ye Ya with wide eyes: "Young man, what are you doing?"
“......”
Master Sida's house is very large, and he originally lived here with his son and daughter-in-law. After his son died in the army, his daughter-in-law also remarried three years later. Now only the old mage lives here.
The years are the same for everyone, and no one will be left alone. Although Master Sida is high in the temple of magic, he now has the common symptoms of ordinary old people, and he can't remember things, so he is commonly known as ...... Forgetfulness.
Every morning, Ye Ya would state his intentions to Master Xida, and then in the intermittent explanations of the old mage, he slowly comprehended and mastered the two systems of wind and fire, and the method of constructing powerful spells.
Master Xida has a bad memory, and it is well known that the surrounding residents have long been accustomed to talking to the old man one moment, and the next moment he is asked, "Who are you?", and he can calmly answer "I am the third son of the old Bi family next door" and so on.
Even so, as a top-level mage of the normal class, for hundreds of years of hard work on the road of magic, morning lessons have become the instinct of life.
The sky is about to dawn, and it is normal for Ye Ya and Master Xida to have a magic morning class together.
Master Xida had white hair on the back of his neck, unfettered slightly, and after the old man had been haircut for a long time, he found that he had not yet achieved the desired effect, and the old man muttered to himself, and actually took out two humanoid fire spirits from his body to take care of his hair.
It stands to reason that even when it is time to die, the hair of a magician with magic elves and abundant mana will not be reduced by time like ordinary old people, because it is very likely that these hairs are the dwelling place of the elves, but the hair of Master Hilda is very scarce.
After the first morning class, Ye Ya understood why Master Xida had so little hair, and he also understood why, there was always a faint smell of burnt paste on Master Xida's body......
Humanoid fire magic elves?
Pure energy form of magic elves, in nature, most of them exist in their true form, for example, where a large number of fire elves gather, there must be flames, where a large number of wind elves gather, there must be a strong wind, and a single magic elf, if you want to have your own fixed form, must be a high-level magic elf! Only high-level magic elves can transform into a fixed form, as for what kind of transformation it looks like, it depends on the host when he transforms, if it is accompanied by a dragon, the appearance is mostly a flying dragon, accompanied by a fire wolf, mostly in the form of a wolf, and with a human, naturally, it is a human form.
In order to reach this level, the magic elves have worked for hundreds of millions of years, and their efforts are absolutely, absolutely!
Sure enough, the two half-foot-sized fire spirits worked hard for a long time with their little hands outstretched, and finally used violent elimination methods to solve those disobedient stubble...... The fire elf winked at Ye Ya, burrowed into the neck of Master Xida, and disappeared.
Also, the elves never expected that on the way to become the master of the elves, they also needed to tidy up the appearance of the master, and the effect that Master Xida wanted, I am afraid that the elves would not be able to learn it......
As a city that produces weapons of war for a living, there are naturally wands for sale, and when Ye Ya is free, he likes to go to the shop where wands are sold to pass the time.
He found that the staffs in the store were obviously divided into two grades, clearly of the same level and type, but there were always one or two, which was a cut higher than the price of other staffs.
Due to the fact that the spell release has a certain amount of wear and tear on the staff, the clerk does not allow him to try it. Therefore, Ye Ya didn't understand the difference between the two staffs.
For example, in the store display, it is also a sage staff, which is exactly the same style as the staff used by Ye Ya, but there is a price tag, but it is a full two hundred gold coins more expensive than his own, could it be said that this staff not only has the advantage of a staff, but also has the advantage of a scepter?
It wasn't until I got acquainted with the clerk that these staffs were engraved with the letters XS in the handshake position, indicating that this staff was made by Higgs, the president of the Staff Association, and the effect of the staff naturally did not need to be said.
And in the whispered gossip of the clerk, I know that the master craftsmen of Santa Laluca have their own distinctive characteristics, and it is only a very normal phenomenon to leave special marks for their works.
Just like the letters carved by Master Higgs to represent his own name, it can only be regarded as ordinary.
And deliberately leaving seemingly flaws in the work, but in fact ingenious flaws, until the practitioner uses them, suddenly realized, this is a grade.
The highest level is to seal the token in the armor, and the token is clear, if it is damaged, it can be repaired for free......
When he set out from Flang, Wulian handed Ye Ya 1,200 gold coins.
The cost of learning two powerful spells and Min Zhen's rations, Ye Ya's food is a very small part, how can it be counted to support him to learn skills and master them preliminarily......
As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of ......
As the saying goes, those who are close to Zhu are red......
One afternoon a month later, at the bar of Seshelia's Bar, beside Master Sida, there was a young magician with a flushed face...... As an apprentice, it is natural not to let the teacher settle the bill.
Usually, there are many ways to make money in San La Ruca, such as risking union tasks, transporting goods, moving materials, and so on......
But now, it is definitely an unusual time, the tide of monsters has just receded, and the adventure team that came but did not catch up took over the tasks of the adventure union from trainee to senior, and took away 95% of the escort and transportation tasks by the way.
Poor Ye Ya can only rely on carrying raw materials for weapons to fill his stomach. Min Zhen, one morning, was taken out of the city by Ye Ya, and repeatedly advised: "Don't come back at night, I'm the day after tomorrow...... No, I'll pick you up the day after tomorrow!"
After the success rate of spell release barely reached the minimum standard of the old mage, Ye Ya hurriedly said goodbye, just wanting to return to the warm little home as soon as possible.
The words are on one side, and the matter is divided into two ends.
The last member of the Demon Sword Squad, Xiong Xiuxiu, after three months of initial run-in with Lingling, was finally able to smoothly respond to Wu Lian's instructions, and sent fire mana to the target during the battle, which was equivalent to a medium-level apprentice magician, which attracted a burst of praise from everyone.
Xiong Xiuxiu, who had eaten more than four hundred magic stones of the water and fire systems, was already half a person tall, and the shield in front of him was a head taller than himself, and it was even thicker, and he was surrounded by a group of people at the moment, and his head was shy hiding under the feet of Lingling and between the shield.
"Why hasn't the leaves come back yet!" Wu Lian wrenched his fingers, it was about to be autumn, and it was already past the appointed time.
"Xiaoya's brain, it is estimated that it is the same as last time!" Luo Sheng pressed his elbow against the scale armor on the top of the fierce dragon's head: "Yes, this time, I estimate that it will take seven or eight months, so I have to wait!"
After Luo Sheng's injuries healed, he and Miao Xiaodao formed a two-person competitive team and mixed in the arena for two months.
Most of the time they are abused by blood, but for the two who urgently need to improve and hone their skills, this kind of opportunity is really great, and the rules of the arena restricting death allow the two to not be seriously injured or worry about their lives.
The martial arts and skills of the two of them improved rapidly. Luo Sheng said unashamedly, now he can easily defeat himself three months ago, and if you count the Raptors who are a big circle, the combat power is already one or two in the apprenticeship stage.
"It shouldn't be ......" Wu Lian said: "It is the most difficult for magicians to get started, and it is not difficult for magicians to learn spells, it is estimated that they will come back in the next day or two, and when Ye Ya comes back, we will set off for Il ......."
"Il?!" Luo Sheng didn't wait for Wu Lian to finish speaking, and then said, "Xiaoya and I grew up in Il!"
"That's not right, let you go back to visit your family!"
"Then hurry up and pick up Xiaoya!"
"Go! The leaves are back, so let's go first. ”
"Uh...... That one...... Brother Miao and I still have a game in the evening, so I won't ...... I'm not responsible for it......"
Luo Sheng squeezed his eyes at Miao Xiaodao, Miao Xiaodao nodded, there was indeed a game at night, and Luo Sheng also pressed twenty gold coins.
"Then we'll have to wait a few more days!" Ulian squinted, not knowing what she was thinking.
Two weeks later, at dinner time, Luo Sheng and Miao Xiaodao went to the arena early.
Aunt Yi, Wu Lian, and Lingling gathered around the dining table, Xiao Ling was completely lying in the middle of the living room, like a water-blue round carpet, Xiong Xiuxiu sat in the corner of Xiao Ling's body, and gently flicked the front of the shield with his left paw, making the cover in front of him more like the surrounding environment.
Not to mention that things gather like like, the same is true for the team's demon pets, but Xiong Xiuxiu has the best relationship with Xiao Liang, maybe one is timid, the other is lazy. Swords and raptors are very much like their masters, one is silent and reliable, and the other is stupid and noisy.
......The door was pushed open, and it bounced against the wall with a sound.
"Wow, it's really fragrant!"
Ye Ya pushed open the door and ran in quickly, with long hair behind him, flying messily.
Shoulder Min Zhen jumped up, quickly flew in front of Wu Lian, his wings stopped, his body flipped three hundred and sixty degrees at great speed, and when he was about to land on the table, he flapped his wings and flew in front of Lingling, and made the same movement, which was regarded as a greeting.
When he flew above Xiao Liang, he stared suspiciously at Xiong Xiuxiu on Xiao Liang's body, and Xiong Xiuxiu stood up vigilantly and blocked him diagonally with his shield.
"What's wrong with you?" Wu Lian looked at Ye Ya who was sitting down, is this still Ye Ya?
The face is sallow, the lips are chapped, and the hair is scattered and yellow, and when he set off, he looks like him.
"I didn't ...... Affair...... Ah......" Ye Ya grabbed the steamed bun on the table with his hand and took a big bite.
"Take chopsticks, eat vegetables, eat vegetables!" Aunt Yi saw Ye Ya come back, went to the kitchen and took the dishes and chopsticks out, and took a closer look: "Oops, why have you lost so much weight, you are out of shape!"
"No, right?" Ye Ya took the dishes and chopsticks, and touched his face with his right hand: "It seems that he has lost a little weight......
"It's definitely not good to eat when you're outside, just come back, eat more, eat enough!" Aunt Yi said distressedly, Aunt Yi, who has no children under her knees, looks at these children as her own children.
"Well, Aunt Yi, is there any sparkling wine at home?" Ye Ya buried his head and stuffed something into his mouth with all his might.
"Reincarnation of the Starving Ghost?" Wu Lian whispered angrily.
"How can there be that kind of wine at home, but there are a few bottles of ...... left by the master"
"Where, where, I'll get it!" Ye Ya got up.
"At the top of the bookcase in the study, no one drinks at home, so it's always there. ”
"Okay, I'll look for it!"
After Ye Ya finished speaking, he went upstairs and entered the study.
Wu Lian and Lingling looked at each other...... What's the situation, I've been out for more than three months, and I've been drinking? Looking at that eager look, it seems like I'm addicted.
Ye Ya found the wine, found the opener, opened the wine, poured it before he had time to drink it, Min Zhen, who was given up studying Xiong Xiuxiu, went to the side of the cup and sucked most of the wine, and stayed there after sucking, waiting for Ye Ya to pour the wine, Ye Ya poured more than half a cup, and Min Zhen flew away after sucking it and continued to study Xiong Xiuxiu.
Ye Ya poured it at this time, took a big sip, and let out a sigh of relief.
"Uh......" Ye Ya looked up and found Wu Lian's eyes, and explained: "Drink a sip or two once in a while......"
"It's not like you can explain it with two sips once in a while......" Wulian pointed to Min Zhen, who was lying on the little girl's body, swaying.
"It's hard to say ......," Ye Ya said.
"That, just, slow, slow, say!"
Murderous......
Lingling covered his mouth and chuckled.
"Uh......" Ye Ya really didn't think about how to explain this problem: "A mage told me the secret that I can quickly subdue some special magic elves......"
"Continue ......"
There are only two words, the tone is very light, but the murderous atmosphere is stronger, and the simple two words are equal to 'you continue to make up', 'continue to make up', 'it's best to justify yourself'...... Wait, you want to look good.
"Don't believe it, look at it......" Ye Ya simply didn't bother to explain, closed his eyes, and began to communicate with the magic elves that existed in his body.
Before Wu Lian's patience level dropped to zero, a magma-like fire-type magic spirit crawled out of Ye Ya's palm with great reluctance......
The half-foot-tall villain immediately found the wine glass on the table, stretched out a hand into the wine, the crimson wine quickly faded, and the villain burped very vividly and slowly disappeared......
Wu Lian, Ling Ling was dumbfounded.
The fire magic elf was entrusted to Ye Ya by the old mage of Xida, who had reached the end of the day, hoping that these partners who had followed him for hundreds of years could have a good home, after all, the cultivation of human mages to the normal level was only a hundred years, and a high-level magic elf, if he wanted to find a host with the right appetite, then the time was gone.
These fire elves who have accompanied Master Xida for hundreds of years, under the influence of Xida, they will make trouble without alcohol, Ye Ya has a dry mouth when he doesn't drink, and it doesn't work to drink water, and the high-level fire magic elves are in the body to make emotions, and they are obedient if they don't have a dry mouth.
Ye Ya's current magic attainments are impossible to order these high-level elves to cooperate with him to complete spells, and to provide for them like a grandfather, but thinking that there is no need to subdue the wild magic elves in the future, and the use of fire magic is also unexpectedly smooth, with extraordinary power, so he gritted his teeth and persevered.
After begging for a long time just now, an elf showed up with great reluctance...... If you want these elves to agree with him as the new master, it is estimated that you will have to wait until Ye Ya reaches the advanced stage.
But!
I don't know about these Wulians......
"Humanoid magic elves?"
"You read that right......"
"High-level magic elves?"
"That has to be ......"
"How many?"
"Fifteen, six, and a few hundred ......."
The voice did not fall......
"Aunt Yi, help me open a bottle too!"
"I'll get it, I'll drink it too!"
