6. Unexpected surprises
Wushan Town is not big but not small, the battle between the two parallel goods holy domains in the sky above Wushan in the east of the town, even if it can affect the west side of the town, it will not be too serious, the place where Fang Yuanzhi sent Hadley's parents to go is almost beyond the scope of Wushan Town, and the possibility of being affected is even small-
In this way, if he was still dead, then Fang Yuan could only say that he was powerless to defy the sky......
After all, the source of the disaster was a meteorite summoned by a Sanctuary Magister, what else could he do?
"The powerhouse of the Sanctuary turned out to be the powerhouse of the Sanctuary." Although his face looked a little pale, Hillman was a sixth-level warrior who had experienced life and death many times after all, and even if he also suffered the impact of the black dragon dragon power, he still came back to his senses immediately, and although he trembled, he still made the right response at the first time.
They were located in a clearing in the east of Wushan Town, which is where the children's morning exercise is usually over, and the children have been watching the exchange between the two top students before - Hillman suddenly turned to look at all the children with a hideous face, and shouted: "Everyone go home for me!" Fast! Go home! I'll go home and hide it well! Fast! ”
He is well-informed, and he knows very well what kind of scene the battle between the powerhouses of the Sanctuary is!
However, these children did not understand this, and instead looked forward to the battle between the powerhouses of the Sanctuary, so Hillman could only use the majesty he had accumulated on weekdays to force everyone to go home, and at the same time make some corresponding arrangements:
"Rory, Roger, quick, you guys send some six or seven-year-old kids back, hurry! The battle of the powerhouses of the Holy Domain, once it spreads here, the consequences ......"
"Yes, Captain." The two guards who were ordered didn't talk nonsense, they understood what time it was, so they began to be busy helping some children who were running slowly, even holding and carrying their backs, including Hillman also doing the same - of course, he paid more attention to Lin Lei, but just as he was about to turn his head and tell Lin Lei to hurry home, he found that Fang Yuan on the other side had already pulled Lin Lei and started running, leaving only a shout:
"Uncle Hillman, don't worry about us! I'll accompany Lin Lei back! ”
This was Fang Yuan's plan, the place where he lived was quite far away from here, but this time he happened to take refuge in the Lord's Mansion with Lin Lei!
With the favorability he has now earned in the Baruch family, no one will mind him taking refuge, not to mention that he is also taking Lin Lei with him...... It was not the first time he had been to the Baruch family's mansion.
"Quick, you all hide in the basement of the storeroom!" Sure enough, after coming to the Baruch family's mansion, Hogg, who was standing in the courtyard at the moment, saw the two of them shouting directly, and only a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, which was the joy of seeing that the person he valued had no accidents.
And the basement of the treasury in his words refers to the largest and strongest basement in the Baruch family's mansion, hiding there can definitely save your life!
"Your Excellency, don't worry!" Fang Yuan didn't stop, and without waiting for Lin Lei to nod, he directly dragged him along and rushed towards the location of the warehouse without stopping! The newly acquired innate ability helped a lot at this time, and he didn't even need to be distracted too much, and he just instinctively pulled Lin Lei to dodge some flying rubble - that was also extremely lethal!
Especially one of the hundreds of pounds of stone fell from the sky, although according to Lin Lei's performance, he could dodge even without Fang Yuan, but at this time, it was Fang Yuan who occupied the almost absolute initiative, so it was natural that Fang Yuan pulled Lin Lei together to avoid this killing opportunity......
This almost saved Lin Lei's life!
Of course, the more exciting is still to come, the housekeeper Ciri stared at the vindictive shield and rushed out to answer Lin Lei, but he didn't want to be ignorant little Wharton actually followed! Just in time to catch another boulder and smash it in that direction—
"Be careful!" Lin Lei also discovered this thrilling scene, but Fang Yuan's reaction was faster! Controlling the qi and blood all over his body and rushing straight to the top of his head, his eyes were red and he looked anxious and desperate, and his speed suddenly skyrocketed, as if he was about to break through or his potential exploded, and he suddenly pounced on Wharton's position, and flew out directly with Wharton at the moment before the boulder fell!
Then, controlling his body to flip slightly in mid-air - he wouldn't be too comfortable - his body fell to the ground on his side, but Wharton, who was thrown into his arms, only suffered a little concussion and abrasion.
"We're fine! Wharton scratched a little skin—" and he shouted as soon as he could.
"Boom!" The door of the warehouse, which was covered by broken boulders and collapsed buildings, was directly broken open by Ciri, who was full of fighting spirit, and then Ciri and Lin Lei, who was protected by Ciri, came in one after another, and even Hogg, who was carrying a giant sword and was preparing to deal with the boulder that flew inadvertently, glanced over here, and the three of them obviously looked shocked.
The scene of Wharton in distress scared them all enough!
Seeing the miserable appearance of "Hadley" and the almost intact Wharton who was held in his arms, the eyes of the three of them completely changed.
Seeing this scene, Fang Yuan acted as if he was a little frightened by the menacing crowd, and pointed to the entrance of a hole: "Are we going to go in there?" ”
And in my heart, I gave myself a thumbs up-
Perfect!
This is the biggest benefit he can get from the plot of the Sanctuary War mentioned earlier.
Save Lin Lei? Of course, it is also a kindness, but Fang Yuan is also saving himself, and it is not suitable for profit, otherwise it is tantamount to self-destruction of the Great Wall.
But saving Wharton was different, especially Fang Yuan's performance was called a true feeling, and he pounced without hesitation, and he was anxious to "explode potential"! The Baruch family may not indicate it?
Therefore, Fang Yuan was really mixed up on the side of the Baruch family next.
But no matter how he thought about it before, the follow-up development was still something he didn't expect - it turned out to be the housekeeper Ciri who came directly to confess his relatives!
To be precise, Hogg took the lead and brought the butler Heary, the captain of the guard, Hillman, and Ray to Hadley's house, and made this request to Hadley's parents in a very formal way, and the reason was also very formal:
The housekeeper Ciri has no queen, and has dedicated his life and energy to the Baruch family, but Hogg can't bear to see him die alone, and now it happens that Hadley's child is very suitable for his eyes, so he wants the two to recognize each other, so that Ciri has a person to support and die......
For Hadley's parents, this is undoubtedly a great thing! It's just a godfather, and it's not here to rob their son, in their opinion, this is their own son who is really going to soar!
And Fang Yuan wouldn't mind this, this was the rhythm of the Baruch family to completely treat him as their own family, or to completely turn him into their own family!
You must know that the Baruch family is a dragon blood warrior inheritance, and it also has a noble identity, which says a lot, even if it is now in decline, it is impossible to recognize relatives casually! And the housekeeper Ciri is nominally a housekeeper, but in fact he is called by Hogg, the head of the family, one uncle after another, and Lin Lei and Wharton are also grandfathers, and the respect is not fake.
In the original book, Hogming knew that he was going to die, so he entrusted his young son Wharton to Ciri to take care of, and in exchange for the royal family, this is the kind of minister who is orphaned!
Fang Yuan had thought about a similar situation, but all he thought about was that Hillman, the captain of the escort team, had taken in apprentices, and the benefits that this could bring him really weren't very much, so he was still a little entangled in the beginning.
It's good now, don't worry about it.
The clock goes on.
Ciri is a godgrandson, it doesn't mean that Fang Yuan has to sell himself, the Baruch family doesn't mean that, Fang Yuan said that he is really lucky, this declining family can be called an approachable model among the nobles - when the name was just decided, Hogg asked Lin Lei and Wharton to treat him like his own brother!
To tell the truth, Fang Yuan was really a little flattered by this, but this was undoubtedly a great thing, because with Hogg's words, the relationship between him and Lin Lei was completely iron, and a long time might be able to dilute many things, but it definitely did not include Lin Lei's respect for his father's life......
However, this did not mean that Fang Yuan would be idle in the future—to be precise, his life would be more fulfilling.
Because after recognizing a godfather, Ciri, a cheap godfather, asked Fang Yuan to get rid of his illiterate identity - that's right, he is illiterate in this world! Although he obtained some common sense when he replaced Hadley's identity, it was only common sense relative to Hadley at that time, and there was almost no way for civilians to learn such things as words, and they still expected Hadley, who was only seven or eight years old at the time, to master it?
It's nice to be able to talk, okay?
Fang Yuan couldn't help but feel congested, how good would it be if my great Chinese really dominated the heavens......
Spit and complain, but learning is definitely to learn, and you have to learn by heart: because he wants to learn magic, can he learn magic without reading books? Ordinary people want to continue to progress after exercising their bodies to level six, they need to cultivate the Dou Qi cheats, and the Dou Qi cheats are also books!
In other words, this is a level that cannot be avoided at all, and if you want to go further, it is impossible to avoid dealing with books as a carrier of knowledge.
In addition to words, at the same time, there are some miscellaneous knowledge of history and culture that need to be learned, which is also necessary, and those who have seen martial arts know that some people who write cheats are likely to use some proper nouns as "hidden words", and people who don't understand can only rely on blind guessing.
is like Mei Chaofeng and Chen Xuanfeng in the Condor Shooting, what kind of virtue did these two become by a volume of Nine Yin True Scriptures? The Nine Yin Divine Claw was trained by them into the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, and they also pitted themselves into the appearance of no human being and no ghost...... It's because Huang Sheng used a lot of Taoist terms to write the Jiuyin Sutra, and the two of them couldn't understand it.
Although this world is in the style of Western fantasy, there may not be these ways of saying, but Fang Yuan doesn't want to pin his hopes on others, knowledge is always the most reliable thing that he masters.
Fortunately, it seems that because Fang Yuan's spiritual soul has transformed when he opened the inheritance, not to mention that he is far beyond ordinary people in terms of memory and understanding, but he can also reach the level of genius in the conventional sense, so he quickly got rid of the "slow class" specially set up for him at the beginning, kept up with Lin Lei's progress, and studied with Lin Lei.
Of course, it's not that Lin Lei is inferior to him in this regard, but on the one hand, Lin Lei is still a child, and he is naturally not as attentive as Fang Yuan in this regard, on the other hand, Lin Lei has a lot more things to learn than Fang Yuan, such as the family history of the Baruch family, some doorways that nobles should know, but these are things that Fang Yuan doesn't need to learn.
All in all, everything Fang Yuan showed was very satisfying, and time kept passing like this, and soon it was the late autumn of that year......
And the quiet time that lasted for half a year also came to an end at this time.
In late autumn, it was the time of conscription—of course, this had nothing to do with Fang Yuan, what he cared about was that the annual entrance test of the major magic academies was also at this time!
Fang Yuan had planned to participate in the magic test, although it was difficult for him to save money, but the magic test was not just this time, but every year, so he didn't plan to be with Lin Lei.
But the plan often can't keep up with the rapid change, and the originally very difficult process of saving money after recognizing the godfather has become very simple, and even you don't need to save -
During this half a year, Ciri, or the Baruch family, gave him two more surprises.
First of all, Ciri said that he would teach him his Douqi Secret Book - Ciri has practiced Douqi, and the Baruch family has a good ancestor, even if he is defeated, he always has a little foundation, but he has the blood of the green dragon in his body and can't practice the general Douqi Secret Book, so Ciri's Douqi Secret Book is not like Hillman, which is obtained from the army and cannot be taught privately.
It's just for the sake of his future, he was specifically asked to simply train his body to reach the third-level warrior before starting to cultivate, this is because he is worried that the child's heart is uncertain, and with the Douqi cultivation method, he will not pay attention to the exercise of physical strength, and Fang Yuan can only say that they think too much about this.
The second surprise came from Lin Lei - Fang Yuan really hadn't thought about it, but Lin Lei actually took the initiative to teach him the method of meditation about four months ago! Warriors also have methods for exercising their mental powers, but they are completely different from the meditation of a magician, at least the meditation method of a magician contains a part of sensing and controlling the elements of magic!
———— Dividing Line————
Plot inertia may really exist - Hongmeng said that Lin Lei is a person with an uncertain fate, so I won't talk about fate here.
Because he robbed Lin Lei and Ciri of their jobs and helped them save Wharton's life, Lin Lei's head was not smashed because of this.
Fang Yuan originally planned to "accidentally" give Lin Lei some blood during a certain exchange in the future, so that he could recognize the main coiling dragon ring and wake up his portable grandfather, but he didn't expect that the day after the separation, Lin Lei's body began to wander from time to time.
Ordinary people don't care about this, and they won't care if they really notice it, but Fang Yuan knows the plot, and after noticing this, he understands that he can save some effort.
In the following period of time, Lin Lei's performance in all aspects made him confirm his guess - he would often go to feed a mouse, and how could a child who was usually keen on cultivation suddenly become interested in a mouse?
This is naturally the god-eating mouse Beibei in the original book.
Fang Yuan is not interested in this god-devouring rat, although it can help a lot in this world, but this thing is also a troublesome spirit, he doesn't want to be targeted by Lao Bei early, and now he has a friendship and doesn't want to rob Lin Lei of the opportunity; What's more important is that signing an equal contract with Warcraft is for both parties to hand over a trace of soul power, and the devil knows if there is any hidden danger in this!
Fang Yuan was very cautious in all aspects that might affect his soul, after all, he would not be in this world forever, if it was a master-servant contract like a unilateral dedication contract for demonic beasts, it would be fine, but sign a master-servant contract with this god-devouring rat? Is there a condition that is one thing, aren't you afraid of being slapped to death by Lao Bei?
So he just watched happily on the side, and at the same time accompanied Lin Lei to feed this god-devouring rat or something, but only occasionally, to ensure that he would never take the lead, and by the way, intentionally or unintentionally, he showed his strong spiritual power in front of Lin Lei, and used his own way to figure it out.
His idea was to see if he could use this to attract Drinkwater's attention, although the possibility was not high, but what if Lao De casually mentioned to Lin Lei that his spiritual talent was also very high or something, Lin Lei would want to take him to the magic test?
What he had in mind at the beginning was this thought, as long as Lin Lei took the initiative to talk to Hogg, basically this matter would be stable!
After all, as a noble family head, it is impossible for Hogg to have no scheming at all, and his understanding of the evil of human nature will definitely not be shallow--not to suffer from inequality, so even if the possibility of planting the seeds of discord between Fang Yuan and Lin Lei is very small, and the possibility of taking root and germinating is even more minimal, he will not mind snuffing out this kind of thing at the source from the beginning.
No one knew what Lin Lei's achievements would be in the future, so Hogg regarded Fang Yuan as Lin Lei's right-hand man in the future! It's just ten gold coins, what is it? Although the Baruch family is in decline, it is not short of this money.
But Fang Yuan really didn't expect that Lin Lei would play his cards without following the routine, so he directly gave him a big surprise, and actually found an opportunity to guide him into a meditative state in private, which was equivalent to teaching him the correct meditation method!
