Section 348 Night Feast
Not long after the butler of the Earl's Court left, Barr arrived. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"I asked someone to inquire about it, and even found the most knowledgeable wise man, but no one had any impression of 'Pocrates'. Balbi said respectfully: "Later, I also asked some old professors of the academy, but still no one knew. ”
"However, if there is no news, I am embarrassed to come to meet the adults. Coincidentally. A few days ago, my younger brother stumbled upon this snake-shaped sign, and he muttered that he had seen a similar pattern, and I paid attention to it at the time. And then following this clue, I really found someone. ”
Barr babbled on and on to express a small merit of himself, and then said the follow-up.
His younger brother had seen a "snake coiled over a scepter" pattern not long ago, which was very similar to the "black snake coiled around a cone" that Angels had given him.
After careful questioning, Barr followed the clue and finally found a woman.
The woman owned a small medical clinic in her home, and the banner of this clinic was marked with the image of "Serpent in Scepter".
According to the woman's account, the pattern was seen by her grandfather from an ancient book in the central library, and it is said that this mark always appeared in some physicians' graphic books, and seemed to be the belief of some kind of physician, or the totem of a certain school of physicians, and he marked it down at that time. Later, on a whim, he used this pattern on the banner of his own medical clinic.
Barr said this, with regret on his face: "It's a pity that her grandfather died a few years ago, so she doesn't know which book has recorded it; ”
"I thought about it later, either the book was lost, or it had been put into the vault of ancient books by the library. "But I guess it's unlikely to be lost, who would go out of their way to steal a medical book?"
Ingres captured a noun: "The vault of ancient books?
"The fully enclosed vault built to protect ancient books is under the central library, but it cannot be entered without the order of the director. Barr said this with a helpless expression: "The people in the library are basically old and stubborn, I have used various methods, and they have not let go, and they will not open the vault. ”
Ingres's clear head, the old pedant always has some insistence, maybe inexplicable, maybe pedantic. But it is precisely because of this group of people that the knowledge can be passed on well.
"I see, you don't have to worry about this. Angel pondered for a moment, then took the initiative to put an end to the matter, and he would negotiate the follow-up.
After a pause, Ingres coughed and said in a low voice, "I have one more question for you, do you know what are the more famous enlightenment teachers in the whole of Watergrass?"
In the end, Barr didn't give an answer. Watgrass is too big, there are thousands of professions, and the enlightenment mentor is the kindergarten teacher of the earth, although it is very important for a person's growth, but it is still an inconspicuous profession after all. Barr usually doesn't pay attention, so in the end he can only laugh and say, "I'll go and help the adults inquire immediately." ”
Barr was indeed very efficient, and not long after he left, he returned to Ingres with a booklet. I don't know what means he used to get a list of tutors from some of the most famous Enlightenment schools in Waterglass.
Angell flipped through it, and even the retirees' information was available.
With Bal gone, Ingres began to flip through the booklet.
It was the academy season, and he didn't plan to interfere with the normal class time of the students, so he didn't plan to choose from the active service, but looked directly at the list of tutors who had retired.
Starting from his past evaluations, Ingres roughly circled a few people, and after remembering the addresses of these people, he left the Bay Area.
Towards dusk, Angel returned with a kind old woman in her seventies, dressed in a plain blue dress.
This grandmother's name is Du Shan, and after many comparisons, Angels chose the most gentle personality, the most neutral viewpoint, the most regular living habits, and the only enlightenment tutor who is willing to teach full-time.
After arranging Du Shan's food and lodging, Angel led her to Dodolo.
"As I told you, he had forgotten almost everything, whether it was common sense or language. Except for the kinetic energy to walk, the others are like a baby, so this time I'm bothering you. Ingres said.
Du Shan was also facing such a student for the first time, looking at Duo Duoluo, who was nearly half older than her, she was still a little worried, after all, she was not young, and her power to control the child was already very small.
However, when Du Shan saw Dodolo's eyes as clear as the sky after the rain, the worry in her heart slowly let go.
She has brought out too many children in her life, and she has seen the eyes of all kinds of children. Sometimes, just from the child's eyes, she can know the child's general personality, whether naughty, lively, or introverted, and then teach according to her aptitude.
And Dodolo's eyes are the only ones she has seen in her life. It's too clear, it's too simple, just staring at those eyes, as if the soul can be redeemed.
It would be a pity for such a person who exudes peace and cleanliness from the bottom of his heart to be so stupid all the time.
"Don't worry, I'll do my best. At this time, Du Shan's smile was a little more sincere.
Angel nodded: "I will not interfere with your teaching. However, if the concept is too extreme, it can be discussed but not instilled, and it should not be deliberately guided to recall the past, which may cause secondary harm to him. As for the rest, feel free to do so. I'm sure you'll be able to paint this blank piece of paper in a beautiful color that is unique. ”
......
Du Shan's teaching method is not fixed, she will take Dodoro to see the wild, see nature, and will also take Dodoro to go on a picnic. Teach some knowledge to Dodolo in a relaxed and entertaining way.
Occasionally, she would bring Dodoro to the downtown area to tell the stories of ordinary people, talk about the sophistication of people, and talk about the shortcomings of parents. Even if Duo Duoluo has not reacted much, Du Shan has not stopped telling herself, just like an old grandmother who tells stories to her grandchildren, although she chatters, but because of these chatter, Duo Duoluo can learn more vocabulary.
Angel followed Du Shan for a day with "boundless silence", and recognized her teaching methods and three-view thinking, so he put his mind at ease and no longer paid too much attention to Duo Duoluo's side, but chatted with Du Shan about Duo Duoluo's learning progress every day at dinner.
On this day, the sky is getting dark.
In a large manor on the outskirts of Watergrass, Leonrick wandered the halls, his face burning and worried, occasionally sitting down to take a sip of a sullen wine, and then beginning to walk around the hall again.
His daughter, Magda, sat at the table, her cheeks propped up, playing with the utensils, not knowing what to think.
When Cindia, the mistress of the Earl's Court, came to the hall, she saw such a picture.
Cindia glanced at the butler standing next to her and asked in a low voice, "How long have they been like this?"
The housekeeper quietly compared "two" and whispered, "It's been two hours." ”
Cindy nodded helplessly, she "spitted" Magda, and when Magda came back to her senses, she walked up to Leonrick and said softly, "What are you worried about now? Now that he has accepted the invitation, whether he comes or not, our sincerity has arrived." Besides, it's not time yet, and it's still unknown whether he'll be there or not. ”
Leonric sighed: "You don't understand, if he is really a wizard, let alone a Watergrass, even the entire Fuxu Royal Court will not be able to stop him." ”
"But he hasn't done that these days? I think you're too worried. Cindia pulled Leonric into her seat: "Don't think about it, just stay here and wait." You go and drink like this again, and when that adult comes, he sees you like this, what kind of words? ”
His wife's words also made sense, and before the guests arrived, he was not good at drinking. But...... He's just worried, after all, the other party is extraordinary!
Suddenly, the clock in the corner of the wall rang "dang dang dang", and the time was already eight o'clock in the evening, half an hour before the time marked in the invitation.
According to the default rules of the banquet, basically no one will arrive on time, and generally they will arrive half an hour early. Leonrick said secretly, if that adult is willing to come, he should already be on the way at this time, right?
Just as Leonrick was still thinking, the wooden door of the hall was pushed open, and a guard walked in.
"Report to your Excellency, the guests have arrived. ”
"He's coming?" Leonrick was still digesting the thought when Magda suddenly stood up, "He's coming!"
The father and daughter said the same thing, but the tone was different, one with complexity and surprise, the other with joy and surprise.
Cindia and Leonrick looked at Magdal at the same time, and her cheeks flushed, "I, I...... I'm ......"
Leonric interrupted Magda: "Don't say anything, when you apologize to the guest, you go back to your room and don't come out." ”
Magda looked anxious: "Dad?!What do you mean? I left halfway, so I didn't respect the guests!"
As she spoke, Magda winked at Cindia.
In the past, no matter what happened, Cindia also stood on the same front as her daughter, but today Cindia also made a straight face and stood on her husband's side.
They had lived most of their lives, and how could they not understand Magda's thoughts. Girl's feelings are always poems, there's nothing wrong with that, but the premise is to look at this poem, who to pay!
After eating a week's "ban" before, she still hasn't taught her to recognize the situation!
Magdal was about to say something more, but there was already a clatter of footsteps outside the door.
I saw a row of knights walk in, and then slowly stood on both sides, raised the knight's spear in his hand and put it on the ground, making a uniform sound. Then all the knights took off their helmets, held them in their palms, and half-knelt on the ground.
As everyone approached, the knights bowed their heads one by one.
This is a knight's welcome gift, not for non-VIPs.
In the center of the knight, a young man in a black and white checked trench coat walked in from outside the gate with regular steps.
