Chapter 756: Wizard Abel
Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat dried shrimp, which is an eternal truth.
Looking at the old king with a sad expression and faltering steps, Wang Xu was not moved.
"Into the city..."
Sitting in the carriage, Wang Xu closed his eyes and rested.
Everyone is responsible for their own actions, Wang Xu can let go of the third prince, and he can also be considerate of the old king's father-son relationship, but who would pity the many guards who died in battle.
No one will pity them, so Wang Xu will not pity others, because no one can replace the dead to forgive the living who killed them.
Grunt...
The carriage drove into the royal capital, and at the same time, the news that the third prince was whipped to death by the king himself also flew into the distance like wings.
Wang Xu didn't need to know the thoughts of the ministers of civil and military affairs and the princes and nobles, and he didn't want to know.
He only knew that the matter could be solved for the time being, provided that no one provoked him again.
"To Shelanford Street..."
Wang Xu opened his mouth and ordered, and then added: "The others find a place to rest, and the housekeeper and Green will accompany me." ”
The knights, led by Crane, turned their horses around and went in search of the inn.
The old butler drove him and Green to Sheeranford Street, a street at the northeast corner of the royal capital.
"Sir, we're here."
After a while, Sheran Ford Street arrived.
Wang Xu stepped down from the carriage, looked at the shops on both sides of the street, and finally locked his eyes on a flower shop.
"Butler, you stay in the car and wait for me, Green come with me."
Wang Xu was wearing an earl's dress, holding a silver civilization staff in his hand, and walked towards the flower shop without looking back.
Green trotted behind, he didn't know why Wang Xu wanted to go to the flower shop, only knew that he should find a chance to escape.
"Lady Emera, this is the tulip that just arrived this morning, and you see how perfect it is, and it is a match made in heaven with you."
The scale of the flower shop is not small, at least 200 square meters.
Inside the flower shop, an old man was talking to a noble lady, and next to him, there was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl who seemed to be an employee of the flower shop.
"Help me wrap it up, send it to my house before noon, and remember to inform me in advance next time there are rare varieties." The lady held a puppy in her arms and left with three swaying steps.
Seeing the lady leave, the girl who was helping in the flower shop took the initiative to greet Wang Xu and the others, and said, "This gentleman, do you want to see the flowers?" ”
"No, I'm coming to see my friend."
Wang Xu looked into the distance, looked at the old man holding a tulip, and said softly, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Wizard Abel." ”
"I'm flattered that you can come."
With a smile on his face, the old man said to the girl, "Angelina, close the door of the shop, we are closed today." ”
"Okay, Grandpa Abel..."
The girl named Angelina couldn't help but look back at Wang Xu and the others as she walked towards the door of the store.
As an employee in the flower shop, Angelina has never seen Mr. Abel have friends in the past few years, and Mr. Abel is always alone.
Now, a friend suddenly pops up, causing Mr. Abel to smile slightly, which makes Angelina very surprised.
"It's a great place to be in the middle of nowhere."
Wang Xu looked at the flower shop, sat on a chair and laughed and talked with Wizard Abel.
Wizard Abel looked very old, with white eyebrows, white beard, white hair, and even his eyes were full of cloudiness, which was a shrewd wizard should not be.
From here, it can be seen that Wizard Abel is in a very poor state, and he doesn't have much time left.
"Over the past few hundred years, I have traveled to many places and have many identities, and this is what I am most satisfied with."
Wizard Abel pointed to the flowers in the store and said softly: "You smell it, what a fresh smell, this is the smell of nature and life, it is really nostalgic." ”
Hearing the conversation between Wang Xu and the two, Green, who was standing next to him, had doubts in his heart.
Why did Lord Earl call the old man in front of him Wizard Abel, here, wizard is an honorific title?
Also, Wizard Abel opened his mouth for hundreds of years, is this bragging, or has he really lived for so long.
"There will always be an end to life, even if we are wizards, there is nothing to regret. Also, with all due respect, do you have any other arrangements? ”
Wang Xu didn't say his last words, because according to his estimate, Wizard Abel still had a few days to live, and it was not yet time to completely run out of oil and dry up.
Wizard Abel shook his head slightly, as early as hundreds of years ago, he chose to become the guardian of the knight world, and when he came here to die, he did everything he had to do.
Now, he is just an ordinary old man who is about to embrace death in his old age.
"By the way, I remember, I haven't chosen a cemetery for myself yet." Wizard Abel seemed to suddenly think of something, clapped his hands and said, "I want to bury myself in a sea of flowers, and let the flowers and bees accompany me." Also, this florist, I plan to give it to Angelina, and I want to thank her for her company over the years. Angelina, Angelina, hurry up, I have something to say to you. ”
Under the call of Wizard Abel, Angelina, who was closing the door, ran over.
As soon as she heard that Wizard Abel was going to give her the flower shop, Angelina felt like she had won five million.
How many times has she fantasized that this flower shop is her own, but she is just a Cinderella, and she will never become Snow White.
Now, when she suddenly heard that Mr. Abel was going to give her the flower shop after her death, she could hardly describe her feelings.
"Mr. Abel, I, I can't ask for it, this florist is your heart's work, you should leave it to your descendants, and I am just your clerk." Although Angelina was very happy, after being happy, she was a little inferior and didn't dare to accept it.
Wang Xu looked at the girl with a smile, waved his hand and said: "For Wizard Abel, a flower shop is nothing, as for the descendants of Wizard Abel, they don't need you to worry about it, Wizard Abel has already made arrangements." ”
Compared with Angelina, who looked ignorant, Green, who was standing behind Wang Xu, shrank his eyes slightly.
This was the first time he had heard the name wizard, and the word wizard appeared again and again, and the more times it appeared, the more Green understood the word, and it was not as simple as saying it.
Also, in the conversation between the Earl and Wizard Abel, he said that we are wizards, which proves that the Earl is also a wizard, or belongs to this group that calls itself a wizard.
Is wizard an honorific title or a formal name, just like the title knight.
Thinking about it, Green thinks it's probably the latter.
"Who is this little guy, he seems to be interested in us." Sensing the change in Green's gaze, Wizard Abel asked Wang Xu.
Wang Xu didn't mean to hide it, and said with a smile: "His name is Green, I plan to make him my follower, don't look at the appearance is mediocre, in fact, he is a good seedling." ”
"Really?"
Wizard Abel didn't believe it very much, knowing that the knight world was just a small world.
In the entire knight world, one of the best talents is currently in the Blackman Wizard Academy, and he has only just become a second-order wizard.
In such a small place, if you want to say that there are good seedlings, Wizard Abel doesn't believe it very much.
"What a lucky lad."
Although Wizard Abel was dying, it didn't mean that his thinking was also rigid, looking at Green with an unknown face, he said softly: "You don't know how noble this person in front of you is, even I, if I am lucky enough to be a follower of His Highness, it is a very honorable thing." ”
Wizard Abel is only a second-order wizard, if he is in the academy, there are thousands of second-order wizards like him, and he is just an inconspicuous one among the many mentors.
Not to mention him, even if he is a third-order wizard, it is difficult to become Wang Xu's follower.
After all, this is a lucrative investment, as long as Wang Xu can become a fourth-order great wizard in the future, all the investment will be worth it.
"Mr. Abel, what is a wizard?"
Green only knew that Wang Xu was very mysterious, and he had the title of earl on the surface, but other than that, he was not clear.
"Wizard..."Wizard Abel smiled dumbly, shook his head, and said, "If you talk about wizards, then you must first talk about your world, this world is called the world of knights, and it is only one of the many planes occupied by wizards. And I, on the other hand, am a Dark Wizard, one of the tens of thousands of second-order mentors under the jurisdiction of the Black Mang Wizard Academy.
Don't underestimate my identity, in the academy, I am only one of the tens of thousands of second-order masters, but here, I am the guardian of your plane, I can make a kingdom rise with a word, and a kingdom can decline with a word.
For example, you can think of me as a viscount, and the knightly world is my territory. The status of a person like me in the Blackmang Wizard Academy is like that of a viscount in the Iron Cross Kingdom, big and small. And the person in front of you, in our Black Mang Wizard Academy, is equivalent to the royal heir of the Iron Cross Kingdom, you should be able to understand when I say this, right? ”
In this way, Green somewhat understood.
It turned out that the world he traveled through was just a small world in captivity by others.
The humble old man in front of him is the lord of this small world, they come from an organization called wizards, and they have a large number of small worlds.
And the mysterious Lord Earl in his eyes is the heir of a huge force in the wizarding world, just like the sons and daughters of those big families in the white dragon fish suit.
"No, I'm a traverser, I should be the protagonist, right? How did I get here, I'm going to be someone else's follower, shouldn't it be that I hit it off at first sight with the big guys, and the big guys think I'm born extraordinary, and then everyone sits in a row and eats fruits? ”
The more he knew, the more he felt that he was going to have a hard time.
It's no wonder that this mysterious Earl has a talent page that brightens the eyes of blind people, and people have a backstage.
I dangle in front of this kind of person every day, it's really stupid for my father to open the door stupidly, and I'm stupid to go home.
