CHAPTER XXIS
Nicole was wearing pink pajamas and entered Wu Ming's room nervously, but saw that Wu Ming did not sleep, but sat at the desk and looked at a thick book. www.biquge.info Seeing Nicole coming in, he patted the soft bed beside him and said casually, "Sit here." β
This is a double bed specially purchased by the young master...... Wouldn't it be too fast to get straight to the point as soon as you come in?
Nicole sat on the bed in the designated position of Wu Ming, and her heart rose to her throat, waiting for the next moment Wu Ming to reveal her true face, and the beastly hair threw her down on the bed.
As a result, Wu Ming still sat motionless at the desk, looking at the pages seriously.
Nike subconsciously glanced at the title of the book out of the corner of her eye, and found that Wu Ming was actually reading "Pillis Chronicles"!
This is a very basic geography miscellaneous book, which roughly describes the customs and customs of the countries of the world in Pirlis, as well as the basic division of national power. Nicole finished the book before she was ten years old. Don't underestimate the servants and maids in this world, in order to show the quality and cultivation of noble masters, most of them have received the influence of high culture.
Young Master, what's the matter?
Countless question marks crossed the girl's mind, Adam was notoriously uneducated in aristocratic circles, and his ability to read a geography book was unimaginable.
Nicole was puzzled, Wu Ming's reading had come to an end, he put down the book in his hand and carefully observed the girl's delicate and bright eyes.
The little maid's eyes were very clear, and they contained respect and trust for Wu Ming - she not only worshipped Wu Ming as her master, but also regarded him as her own family in her heart.
Facing such a lovely maid, Wu Ming felt a faint sense of warmth in his heart, he reached out and patted Nicole's head, and said to her seriously: "Nicole, I have something to ask you." But before I ask you, I'll tell you something that's very secret to me, can you guarantee that not a single thing about our conversation tonight will leak out? β
Nicole was still a little nervous, but after listening to Wu Ming's words, she suddenly smiled: "Of course you can, the young master's secret is my secret." β
"That's good." Wu Ming couldn't help but feel a trace of guilt in his heart when he saw that the little girl trusted him so much, but he still made a serious look on his face, and slowly told his long-brewing "secret", "Actually, during my disappearance, I suffered a serious trauma to my head, which caused a large loss in memory...... Although I still remember you who are very close to you, some of the things that happened in the past, including the books I have read and the knowledge I have received...... There are only vague fragments left in my memory, and I can't remember them clearly...... Do you know what I mean? β
Wu Ming's voice trembled a little, and he didn't know if it was because of weakness or nervousness.
Nicole looked at him with wide eyes and a puff, and didn't speak for a long time, Wu Ming's heart sank quickly: Sure enough, the reasons he made up were still too clichΓ© and unconvincing, and even Nicole couldn't fool around, let alone Lao Yang, who was well-versed in human feelings.
For now, the only way to do this is to be honest with the two of them about their identities, hoping that the father and daughter of the Yang family can help him, otherwise, he can only give up his identity as Adam and find another way to integrate into this world.
Wu Ming was preparing for the worst, but Nicole suddenly blinked, and said with a relaxed face: "Such a mysterious and secretive, I thought what you were going to say, young master, it is normal for memories to be confused, it should be because of witchcraft." Young master, don't worry, my grandfather and I will keep it a secret for you. β
"Witchcraft?" Wu Ming looked confused, "What kind of ...... is that?"
"Oops, I almost forgot that the young master doesn't know anything about the abilities of adventurers......" Nicole stuck out her tongue and said coquettishly, "There is a special group among the conformists, who can use witchcraft to manipulate people's souls, young master, this situation of yours is a manifestation of witchcraft." Nicole knew a playmate, because she offended an evil wizard, she fell into a kind of witchcraft called [Mental Madness], and then she became a dementia, young master, you are in a good situation. β
[Mental Madness]?
That seems to be the skill of the warlock class in "Mushuang", right......
Wu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, although I don't know where the girl saw that he had fallen into "witchcraft", but this level should have passed safely.
"So, I need you to tell me some details of my daily life, including characters I used to know, and basic knowledge about this world. It doesn't matter if you pick a complicated one, you can't finish it in one night, and it will continue tomorrow night. Wu Ming put away the books, lifted the quilt and sat in, and then let Nicole sit next to him, posing as a listener.
"Okay......" Nicole's ears turned red, lonely men and widows were in the same room, she was still so close to the young master, as long as her head was tilted, she could pill on the young master's shoulder, looking at the young master's handsome side face like a knife, her girlish heart began to jump again.
"That'...... Where do I start? Xiao Nizi's voice became a little sticky.
Wu Ming subconsciously glanced at the "Chronicles of the Kingdoms" on the bookshelf, and said with a smile: "Let's start with this world, you can think of this as telling a story, tell whatever comes to mind, and speak freely." β
"Uh-oh." The girl nodded confusedly and began the first lecture of her career, "The world we live in is called the Great World of Pearsis, and the whole world is made up of land, sea, and islands. The race that makes up the largest proportion of the world is humans, followed by rare species such as beasts, ferocious beasts, shamans, elves, gods, and night demons...... The Terran world is mainly divided into more than a dozen kingdoms, and our Youjing Town belongs to the largest empire in the world, the Blue Fist Empire, and the main rulers are the aristocratic class of family units...... Across the forest is the legendary Land of Heaven, a realm ruled by the gods and the Holy See......"
Nicole spoke very carefully, Wu Ming listened very carefully, and in the blink of an eye, an hour passed.
When Nicole talked about the customs of various countries, her eyes became a little strange when she looked at Wu Ming.
"Ahem...... In our Blue Boxing Empire, there is a special custom, when a woman marries into a man's family, the dowry must include the house where she has lived since she was a child, but the man must also pay a bride price equivalent to the price of the house to her in-laws...... So, in our case, when a man says something like 'I'm going to buy your house' to a woman, it means...... He was solemnly proposing to this woman......"
After speaking, Nicole stared directly at Wu Ming's side face.
"What's wrong?"
Wu Ming was a little uncomfortable stared at by Nicole, and he thought about it in his mind for a long time before he realized the meaning of Nicole's words.
"Is it possible...... What I said today...... Is it proposing to Carol? β
Nicole kept nodding.
Hearing the sound of "pop", Wu Ming directly slapped himself in the face - he finally figured out why Carol looked so ashamed and annoyed before. For a long time, what I did this afternoon was to propose to her in public?
Come on, what a bullshit custom this is!
"It's not an ordinary marriage proposal, young master!" Nicole said with a heartfelt voice, "It's a 'solemn' proposal." β
She highlighted the word "solemn".
Wu Ming suddenly had a bad premonition.
