Chapter 19: Barbaroa
Barbaroa is not a magician who has passed the magic qualification exam, his true identity is only that of a lowliest magical apprentice. In addition to this, he was a knight, a junior mechanic, a junior tailor, a junior cotner, a junior blacksmith, and a junior botanist...... With such a long list of identities, he is actually a typical representative of the kind of person who knows everything at all but is not proficient in anything.
He didn't lie, he was indeed a student of Grand Magician Good'an, but as for why Great Magician Good'an's natal stone was in his hands, it was a long way to say.
Born in the village of Pavlov into a family of wealthy small landowners, Barbaroa had money, but little status and identity. In order to change the court of this rich man, when Barbaroa was very young, his father Barbaroa Sr. spent a lot of money to hire a teacher to teach his precious son magic and martial arts.
However, in response to that sentence, life is unsatisfactory **, old Babaloa is looking forward to his son's success, but contrary to his wishes, little Babaloa does not seem to have any talent for learning magic and martial arts.
Yes, he has worked very hard, but after all, he is not known to everyone, at most he can only be regarded as a relatively large chicken, but he can't become a dragon and phoenix. Until the age of fifteen, Barbaroa was like Duang before him, unable to do anything, achieving nothing, and making no progress.
In particular, Barbaroa was born with a severe stuttering problem, and even struggled to recite a completed magic spell.
Old Barbaroa was a rich man, and he had the same problems as all rich people, and he loved his son very much, and of course he would not admit that his son was too stupid, and only blamed all the blame on the two teachers, thinking that they did not teach well and did not care about teaching.
"Damn, Lao Tzu doesn't teach it, okay?" Two arrogant teachers were wronged, and they threw up their sleeves and left without saying a word. TMD, Lao Tzu is gone, where can I not mix a bite of food?
The two sides parted unhappily, and old Babaloa was not convinced: "What's the matter? Eat hairy pigs without Zhang Butcher? It's better for you to go, and the misguided children of the province will delay my son's time. ”
When Barbaroa was sixteen years old, Barbaroa Sr. gave him a new teacher.
This teacher's name is Pierce, and it is said that he is a strong figure with good skills in the dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, and even walks with his face up, with his nostrils facing the sky. Old Barbaroa didn't know whose relationship he left, and went around the boss in a circle, so he invited this great god to his home to be a teacher for his son, and old Barbaroa thought to himself that it was okay now, with such a great teacher, his son's future was hopeful. And Pierce also patted his chest and promised that in three years at most, little Babaloa would definitely be able to pass the exam and become a full-fledged magician, or a full-fledged knight......
Old Babaloa's face was full of joy, but he never expected that this teacher Pierce, who looked incomparably magical, was actually an impostor, what kind of god of demon and martial arts double cultivation? His true identity is a well-known liar in the Bauhinia Empire.
Three days later, on the night, Pierce took advantage of the fact that Barbaroa and his son were out of the house, and they had a wrapping party, sweeping away all the valuable things in their house, and setting a fire to the house as they left, and even the house was burned to ashes. When the Barbaroa father and son returned, all they saw was a ruined wall, broken bricks and rubble. Old Barbaroa couldn't bear the blow, so he went crazy at that time, and after less than a month, he died miserably.
In the blink of an eye, the family was ruined, and only Barbaroa, a child who had just turned sixteen, was left. He asked for money without money, he wanted craftsmanship without craftsmanship, he didn't even have a place to stay, he went to relatives and neighbors for help, and people didn't even let him in. There are also people who lack morality, and when they see Barbaloa coming, they let the dog bite him, and chase him all over the street, and the tragic situation at that time can really be described as sad and sad for those who see it, and the people who hear it cry, so the world is hot and cold. After three days of starvation, the desperate Barbaroa had a narrow heart, so he wanted to simply follow his father.
Take poison? Wall? Wipe your neck?
Barbaroa's choice was to hang himself.
He hung the rope on the tree, and was about to close his eyes and kick off the stone under his feet, but he was saved by a white-bearded old man.
This old man is the level 101 great magician: Good'an.
Barbaroa didn't know who Goodian was at that time, so he felt that this old man was very kind and kind, and looked quite like his grandfather, so he cried and told his miserable story, Goodian listened with his beard and shook his head: "Then you can't kill yourself?" ”
"What should I do? I don't know how to live anymore. Barbaroa stammered as she cried.
Seeing that he was indeed pitiful, Goodian asked him, "Do you want to ...... Are you coming with me? You work for me, and I'll take care of your food, but we have to talk about it first, just take care of the food, no pay! ”
Barbaroa was so mixed up that he was about to hang himself, and he didn't care if he was paid or not, and when he heard that he was going to eat, he agreed at the time.
Without saying a word, Barbaroa followed Good'an, leaving his hometown to travel around the world, and this journey was a full fifteen years.
It's been fifteen years, and Barbaroa has been following Good'an to do some work with bags, umbrellas, and foot water. Occasionally, when he was idle, Wizard Goodian would teach him a lot of miscellaneous knowledge, such as how to make cigarettes, how to make black powder, how to handle all kinds of flowers and trees, how to sew clothes, and so on...... This great magician of Good'an is exquisite, as if there are all kinds of things he doesn't understand, just pick it up and it's a master-level level, with him, Barbaloa has broadened a lot of horizons and learned a lot of things. It's just that he has been hoping that Grand Magician Goodian can teach him some serious magic, but this wish has never come true......
Barbaroa asked, and when he asked Goodian why he wouldn't teach him magic, Goodion glared, "What are you doing with that?" You can't speak anything, can you recite magic spells? Are you not afraid of accidental injury? Pull it down, you, at most the life of a magic apprentice, and I'd better go catch two fish than waste my time teaching you how to use magic! ”
By the way, as a level 101 top archmage, Goodian's biggest hobby is not magic, but fishing. His greatest wish was to collect the nine major freshwater fish and the seven major saltwater fish of the Qi Saint George Continent before he died, and now that the saltwater fish were all available, the freshwater fish were still two years away.
It is precisely because of this that this great magician will live in a fixed place all year round, wander the world, and wander around with a fishing rod on his shoulder.
At the head of the fifteenth year, Goodian finally caught a blue-faced toothfish. His goal now is the last freshwater fish, the goldfinch emperor ray. And this kind of fish, according to the records in the ancient books, can only be found in the northernmost Tianhe of the continent, and can only be reached there by crossing the silver pine forest and frozen tundra infested by countless high-level demonic beasts.
Of course, Good'an will not be intimidated by these difficulties, he is strong, and he is so old, even if he is really dangerous, what can he do? But he can go, but Barbaloa can't, just like him, let alone follow Good'an to Tianhe, it is estimated that he will be eaten as a snack by the monster halfway.
Goodian decided to go on his own, and the day before he left, he said to Barbaroa: "From tomorrow onwards you will have to study and live by yourself, and the skills I have taught you, although they will not make you rich, will not make you rich, but you will have no problem mixing it with a bowl of rice." After saying that, he threw a small gray stone to Barbaloa, and said that you can take this thing, which can be regarded as a testimony to the abnormal fate of the two of us.
Barbaroa asked what it was, and Goodian explained that this thing was called the Natal Primordial Stone, and all level 100 magicians registered in the Imperial Magician Association had a piece, which was infused with magic by the magician himself, and the soul was bound, in order to monitor whether the magician was still alive, and once the magician died, even if it was thousands of miles away, this Natal Primordial Stone would be shattered instantly. Although the two of us are separated this time, it is difficult to say when we will see each other, but if you hold this piece of natal stone, once I am unlucky and die outside, you will know immediately, and when the time comes, burn some paper for me during the New Year's holidays, and it will not be in vain for our two to have a relationship.
……
After listening to Barbaroa's singing, both Justin and Duang already knew in their hearts that this Barbaroa was definitely not a traverser, but they immediately thought of another question: The one hundred and one level great magician, Good'an, could he be another traverser?
Will it?
