Chapter 13

"What's wrong? Didn't you get a break last night? Kriya looked at Shen Xinghe with concern and reached out to put his hand around his shoulder, who leaned on him and closed his eyes again.

"I'm so tired......" Shen Xinghe's voice was very soft, as he himself said.

An Les couldn't help but look at He Ningzhou, but the latter didn't give him any looks, still expressionless, and his gaze was unfocused; Paul Roth shook his head at Shen Xinghe's appearance and brought the last bit of breakfast to his mouth; Govis and Kriya looked at each other helplessly, both of them were very surprised by Shen Xinghe's appearance.

"That," An Lai's gaze shifted to Shen Xinghe, and he cleared his throat, "Since His Highness is unwell, why don't you suspend the morning class?" As he spoke, he paid attention to He Ningzhou's reaction with the rest of his eyes.

He Ningzhou still didn't say anything, Shen Xinghe opened his eyes and sat up, took a deep breath, and made himself feel a lot more energetic, "No need, class still has to be taken." It's just that," this time he looked straight at He Ningzhou, his eyes meaningful, "Come a little late, don't be angry with me, teacher." It was the first time he had used that name for that person.

Everyone smelled gunpowder. Except for Xiduo, the others also moved their eyes to He Ningzhou, who first met Shen Xinghe's gaze, without any expression, but his eyes seemed to be suppressing something; Then he suddenly smiled slightly, as if he didn't care, and said briskly: "It's okay, Your Highness can come a little later, it's okay to be late until the end of this class, I will never be angry with you." ”

His words made Shen Xinghe's eyes cold in an instant; Govis frowned slightly, indicating puzzlement; Paulrot smacked his tongue, surprised that he would say such a thing in such a tone; Kriya looked at him and then at Shen Xinghe, thinking; Anles rolled his eyes and figured out the reason why they would be like this, but he didn't say it.

The atmosphere in the restaurant was very solemn, it was a kind of sabre-rattling for no reason, making people wait with bated breath for the war that might happen in the next second, or Anles broke the silence with his words, "Then Your Highness will drink some porridge, I see that you can't come here so late, and I'm already ready to visit you." Since it's okay, we're relieved. After speaking, he got up and took Shen Xinghe's bowl to serve him porridge, and handed him the spoon in his hand, as if inadvertently patting the back of his hand twice.

Shen Xinghe lowered his head and began to eat breakfast.

"Alright, let's go." Anles got up to greet a few others, Xido was the first to get up and leave, Paulrot and Govis both looked at Shen Xinghe and He Ningzhou worriedly before going out, but Kria didn't move, but said: "I'll go to class with my junior brother, I just want to see how you perform in the martial arts class." Hearing his words, neither He Ningzhou nor Shen Xinghe reacted.

Anlais nodded, and was the last to walk out of the restaurant.

"Say, what did that mean?" Seeing that Anles finally came out, Paulrot, who was waiting at the door, greeted him, and Govis did not leave, wanting to hear Anlais's opinion.

The latter spread his hands and did not explain, but he held back a smile, "I think, this should be called ...... 'intentionally planting flowers and flowers, and unintentionally planting willows and willows', the two of them, some of them grinded." With that, he strode away.

Leaving Paulrot puzzled, he muttered: "What do you mean......", Govis looked at Anlais's back, the folds in his eyebrows deepened a little, but slowly dispersed, and then smiled helplessly, indicating that he understood what Ann meant.

Shen Xinghe ate breakfast at the same speed as usual, without deliberately speeding up or delaying, and when he and the other two arrived at the class location, it was already nearly half an hour late. Today's class was a first: the first time I was late, the first time someone was in attendance, and the first time that two people, as teachers and students, were so silent that they seemed to never know each other.

Kriya's mood was delicate. Although he only brought it up this morning, he had planned it a long time ago, but he really didn't expect that the two of them would have an awkward quarrel, and his presence could be regarded as relieving their atmosphere.

"Little brother, how do you usually go to class?" Kriya asked Shen Xinghe casually.

The latter didn't care about tying up the horse's steps, "Tie the horse when it's time to tie the horse, and practice the basic movements when it's time to practice the basic movements." I started. With that, he simultaneously activated his magic power in his body and began to devote himself to his practice.

Kriya shook his head, looked at He Ningzhou, and saw that the man was looking at Shen Xinghe with a very complicated gaze, so he walked over and patted his arm, motioning for him to come with him.

The two walked forward for a while, distancing themselves from Shen Xinghe, Kria glanced at the figure that was still in sight, and said to He Ningzhou in a low voice: "What's the matter with you?" Quarreled? ”

He Ningzhou recalled the events of last night, but his expression did not change at all, making it impossible to read the opinion in his heart about this matter, "No." I don't know what his attitude was for. "Last night he really wanted to see that person, and then it ended like that, he thought about it all night and couldn't figure out why, and this morning it was ......

"It can't be without a reason," Kriya felt that things were not so simple, "he didn't have this attitude towards you for no reason?" He was fine with you last night, did that happen later? "If anything does happen, it must be at ten o'clock, after the kid leaves his bedroom.

He Ningzhou didn't hide it, so he directly told the whole process of going to that person and chatting with him last night, and he also told the truth about the reason why he went to that person. If Anles heard what he said, even if his facial expressions were well controlled, he would definitely understand a lot of things in his heart, and Kria didn't hear any key points from beginning to end, and in the end he still didn't understand an expression that he didn't understand.

"That's it," He Ningzhou finished speaking, looking at him, "where do you say I offended him?" ”

Kriya shook her head, "I don't know. ”

He Ningzhou looked away and did not speak.

Kriya glanced up at Shen Xinghe's back again, his expression showed a little helplessness, and said to He Ningzhou: "However, it's not good for you to keep going like this, do you want to take the initiative to reconcile with him?" ”

"I don't know." He Ningzhou's voice was very low, and he was a little distracted.

"I'm leaving in two days, and I want to ask you to take good care of him." "By the way," he said, "by the way," he remembered something else, and asked He Ningzhou, "Did he say what weapon he wanted to use?" ”

He Ningzhou came back to his senses, thought about it, looked at him and said, "Yes, he likes to use a sword." At this time, He Ningzhou still clearly remembered the conversation he had with that person about weapons that day, although there was only one sentence, but I don't know if there was still a slight impression in that person's heart.

"That's good." Kriya was very happy, so he summoned something from his storage container and handed it to Heningzhou, who saw that it was a sword, which was not gorgeous from the scabbard, without any gold ornaments and gemstones, and the carved patterns on it revealed a little classical, which looked grand and solemn.

He Ningzhou recognized this sword, it was cast by a famous swordsmith thousands of years ago, its pattern was designed exclusively by the swordsmith, this sword is very sharp, sharpened like clay, and its simple scabbard also reflects the swordsmith's concept of sword-casting, that is: gold and jade. He has only one lesson for future generations: Whoever obtains this sword, must not decorate it.

This sword has a name, called Morich, which means snow falling on the earth, which means purity. After the swordsmith's death, the sword, like the rest of his work, was inherited by his disciples, and was dispersed to the rest of the world, where it was acquired by the crown hundreds of years later, along with a number of other weapons. When Kriya was successful in martial arts, the king gave him two weapons, one of which was the sword Morich.

"Please keep this sword for me, and then transfer it to my younger brother when his swordsmanship is enough to use this sword." Kria Road.

He Ningzhou took it and looked at him incomprehensibly, "Why didn't you hand it over to him personally?" ”

"There's no point in giving him too early, and I'm afraid I'll be away from him when he can use it, and it's better for you to hand it over."

"Okay." He Ningzhou put away his sword and raised his eyes to look at him, "When you go back, I will send you." ”

"It's a deal."

Towards the end of the martial arts class, Paulrot rode over, along with the "assistant teacher" he had specially invited, Govis.

The four of them greeted each other, and Shen Xinghe also finished his practice at this time, he straightened up, and when he saw the two people behind him, he said, "Bao, second brother, you have arrived." Then he looked at Kriya, "Does my brother want to see how I'm doing in my magic class?" ”

Kriya smiled, "No need, He Ningzhou and I will leave here, let's come and see it next time." ”

"Okay."

The two got on the horse and left, and Shen Xinghe watched them gradually move away, but somehow, when his eyes were fixed on the black back, he felt that he could no longer take his eyes off, and there was a faint pain in his heart.

It's a rare time, he will feel that the martial arts class is so long and boring, and all of this is ...... Alas, he didn't know if there was more fault with the man, or if he had more problems......

"Your Highness," Paulrot's voice brought Shen Xinghe back to his senses, "I can ask the Second Highness to come down today to tutor you in healing magic, although the attribute of the Second Highness is wood, but it doesn't matter." Let's get started now. ”

Shen Xinghe nodded, and then Govis continued: "Generally speaking, there are two forms of injuries on people's bodies, one is caused by non-magic, called 'physical damage', including weapons, falls, abrasions, etc.; The other is magic damage. Relatively speaking, physical damage can be slowly recovered by oneself and is easier to heal, while magical damage is mostly permanent and can only be healed with magic. I'm going to give you a demonstration, little brother, is there anything wrong with you? Govis asked with a smile.

Shen Xinghe blinked, "No," and then thought: "Then I'll make some injuries for myself now for you to demonstrate?" ”

The other two people laughed out loud, thinking that this person's idea was really cute, and Govis said: "Then there is no need, by the way, I see that you are very tired this morning, and you must be very tired after practicing martial arts for so long just now." ”

As soon as he said this, Shen Xinghe felt that this was indeed the case, so he nodded in agreement, "Hmm." ”

"That's good." Govis raised his right hand and made a holding motion, Shen Xinghe saw him close his eyes, chanting something in his mouth, and then there was an extra crystal rod-like thing in his hand, about two feet long, transparent, with small golden rings at both ends, which looked very good in the sunlight, Shen Xinghe knew that this should be taken out of the storage container.

"This is my magic wand, its name is 'Star Language'" Govis said as he opened his eyes, holding one end of the staff with his right hand, "Not all magicians use staffs, for example, Paula doesn't," he glanced at Paulrot, who nodded, "Healing mages use more staffs, so it's easier to operate." Okay, I'm here I go, note I'm a wood-based magician. ”

He said this meaningfully, and then took a few steps back, a little distance from Shen Xinghe, while Paulrot made the same move. Then he raised Xingyu to the same height as his shoulders, towards Shen Xinghe, and chanted again, Shen Xinghe felt that he had never seen him so serious. The moment his chanting stopped, Shen Xinghe saw something like vines emerging from the top of his staff, and it was faintly glowing, as if it had been transformed, those vines were verdant in color, and there were some leaves on them, they flew towards him and then wrapped around him. Shen Xinghe didn't feel like he was entangled by vines at this time, he didn't have the feeling of being bound, but like some soft silk hanging around his body, very light, but he could feel their presence, and at the same time, a burst of coolness spread throughout his body, as if as the blood flowed to all parts of his body, the fatigue of his body gradually disappeared, his brain was awake, and his whole person was full of vitality.

The process was very short, only a few seconds, and then Govis put down his staff, and the conjured vines disappeared with it, and Shen Xinghe felt that his whole body was refreshed, as if he had been refreshed.

"How?" Govis walked up to Shen Xinghe and said.

"It's amazing," Shen Xinghe praised, "it's like being reborn." Then he looked at Govis in amazement, "Can you cure any injuries?" Including broken hands and feet, and burns? ”

"Yes." Govis agreed, "The degree to which a healing mage heals is related to his own mana, and you'll often hear very powerful mages say, 'As long as he still has breath, even if he is in pieces, I can restore him to his original state.'" After saying that, he also smiled, as if he had also found something unreasonable in his words.

Shen Xinghe didn't notice this, but couldn't wait to ask, "When will I have that ability?" ”

"Of course, this depends on your mana, I heard that you only learned a support magic, so with your current mana, you can only heal a small injury such as a cut in the skin with a sword, so you still have to work hard to increase your mana. There is no need to rush this kind of thing, and no day has a day when a talented person goes from being illiterate to being proficient in astronomy and geography. In fact, you are still in the initial stage of learning magic, and at this time, you just need to establish a concept, that is, the philanthropic mind and the ambition to help the world as a healer, do you understand? Any magician who has reached the pinnacle of the healing department will never forget the purpose of his studies. ”

Everyone who instilled in Shen Xinghe in the early days of his growth the idea that he could influence his whole life would be convinced and respected by Shen Xinghe, and Govis would be no exception, after his words, Shen Xinghe nodded heavily, indicating that he would take his teachings to heart.

"Okay, today you can start to learn the most basic healing technique of light magic, its function is to treat those wounds that do not need medicine, and can heal on their own in only three or five days, I hope you will not look down on it."

"Nope." Shen Xinghe was honest.

"Hmm." Govis put away his staff, summoned another magic book and handed it to Shen Xinghe, "This book is for you, it is a primary magic book of light healing, and I or Bao will give you a second one when you fully understand it." ”

"I see." Shen Xinghe took over the very thick hardcover book, the black cover was very quaint style, and a few gilded words were printed on it: Heart of Light Wings.

That night, Shen Xinghe went back to the room with Kria after dinner, and this time Govis was not with them. Later, he said goodbye to Kriya, but Shen Xinghe did not return to his bedroom, but walked out of the corridor to the small garden, and he couldn't tell why he wanted to come here, but he suddenly wanted to blow the evening breeze.

At this time, it was the end of spring and the beginning of summer, the sun was shining during the day, but it was cold at night, Shen Xinghe could even feel the coolness penetrating his skin when he stood in the corridor, making him subconsciously clench his arms. I once heard that this is a posture of self-preservation, which is more common in insecure people.

Raising his head, the endless night sky appeared pure, vast and secluded, without moon and stars, the lights on the cloister were not bright, and the hazy effect was like a dream. Shen Xinghe knew that these lights would all go out at midnight, and the entire palace would be shrouded in endless darkness.

Really, he actually had some sentimental thoughts, such sentimentality really didn't look like himself, Shen Xinghe smiled self-deprecatingly, and then walked towards the garden, and the darkness in front of him gradually deepened with his steps.

Shen Xinghe never expected that after he walked a few more steps, he actually heard the sound of talking, in fact, this was only the entrance of the garden, it seemed that the person was the same as him, and he didn't want to stay too far away from the light, so he didn't go deeper.

Because the distance was not very close, and the speaker's voice was not loud, Shen Xinghe didn't hear who it was, but the person who would appear in the garden at this time was really unimaginable, and since he was talking, it meant that there was definitely not only one person.

It's so late, why are they chatting here? Wouldn't it be better to talk in the room?

Although Shen Xinghe was very puzzled, he didn't approach them, thinking about turning in another direction, but at this moment he heard an amplified voice, not the same person as before, this voice was very stern and quite familiar, he said, "Who? ”

“…… Hening State? Shen Xinghe stopped, paused before responding loudly, I really didn't expect it to be this person, so who would be the person with him?

At this time, another person also spoke, and his voice was obviously familiar, it was the most reasonable possibility that Shen Xinghe recalled that it was possible to appear here with that person, and his voice was also extremely surprised: "Little brother? Why are you here too? ”

It's Govis.

For a moment, Shen Xinghe wanted to turn around and leave, and punched himself twice for the thought and action that he would come here.

As his voice fell, Govis walked in front of Shen Xinghe, and he cordially reached out to hold Shen Xinghe's hand, who felt the soft temperature, which could almost warm his heart all the time.

"How did you run out with so little to wear?" Govis said as he seemed to complain, letting go of his hand and untying his cloak to put it on for him, "It's still cold at night. ”

"Via," Heningzhou also walked over at this time, and he stood behind Govis, "Give him the cloak and you will be cold yourself." As he spoke, he put the cloak he had untied over him.

"No need," Govis didn't accept, "you can use it yourself, and I'll just take out another one." Saying that, he really summoned another cloak to put on himself, and He Ningzhou also tied his own one again, and Govis held Shen Xinghe's hand again, still feeling that it was very magical that he would appear here, "You haven't answered me yet, why did you run out alone so late?" ”

Shen Xinghe thought weakly, in fact, the real reason was not even clear to him, so he could only reply: "It's nothing, it's just a whim to come out and blow the wind, I'm going to go back before the lights go out." ”

"That's nonsense," Govis couldn't help but reach out his other hand and pinch his face, "Did you know that if you stay for another five minutes, you might catch a cold?" If you want to come out, you should wear a little more. ”

Shen Xinghe could feel that this was heartfelt care, so he was very moved, "I know, today is really just a sudden thought, and next time it won't be." He saw that Govis reluctantly accepted his statement, so he continued: "Second brother, why did you come out so late? Shen Xinghe had no other emotions when he asked this, just pure concern and curiosity, and he didn't even notice the person behind Govis.

"To be exact," Govis smiled and glanced back at the man, "He Ningzhou and I came out after dinner and stayed until now, chatting so much that we lost track of time. What about you? When did Big Brother let you out? As he spoke, he looked at Shen Xinghe playfully, indicating that he was very clear about the sticky kung fu of the person he said.

"Just now, I came out of his room and went outside." Shen Xinghe said truthfully.

"Well," Govis nodded, "I think so." ”

"What is the second brother talking about, will it be later than us?" Shen Xinghe also quipped, just for fun.

"I'm catching up with He Ningzhou and talking about things when we were young," Govis's smile showed nostalgia for the past, and Shen Xinghe found that he liked his smile very much, "Now that I think about it, there were so many interesting things at that time, I can't finish talking about it for three days and three nights, little brother, I'll tell you about it when I have time." Now, are you still here? ”
