Chapter 064: Learning Magic
"You're talking about Moby Dick, right?" The guard said with regret: "Although there was a heavy fog on the way, fortunately, Lord Xia specially prepared some magic props to cover the breath, so it was quite calm along the way." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ Speaking of which, it was a rare item worth more than 900 holy gold coins, and it was gone after only one use. β
No wonder......
Su Shu suddenly realized that with Xia Lan's current financial resources, he would definitely be able to get a lot of high-level magic props, but this was not the point, the point was that Xia Lan actually dared to take the risk to go to the border in person, which made him feel very troubled.
Even if you're worried that you'll waste your resurrections, there's no need to take risks, right?
Thinking of this, Su Shu felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, Xia Lan may be really sincere to himself, but he did not hesitate to turn against Xia Lan, and even forced Xia Lan to isolate himself, is it a little too irrational?
There are gains and losses, and he has understood the meaning of this sentence many times.
Do you want to apologize to Xia Lan?
If you are really isolated by the other three people, your future situation will be quite bad, after all, once the trial is over, you will definitely look down and not look up in the future, and there is no need to do things absolutely.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Shu decided to wait until he arrived in the royal capital before apologizing to Xia Lan.
As Xia Lan said, the convoy arrived at the royal capital on time two hours later.
Looking at the bustling street, Su Shu finally felt at ease, and the only place in this world that can barely be called safe is the royal capital.
As soon as he got out of the car, Su Shugang wanted to find Xia Lan, but found that the dragon car Xia Lan was riding in had long since disappeared.
"Lord Xia and Lord Phyllis have already returned home." The guard next to him handed over a burden, "This is given to you by Lord Xia, it contains the things you need, and said that you can do it yourself in the future." β
Regardless of whether Su Shutong agreed or not, the guards forcibly stuffed the burden into his arms, and drove away in the dragon car.
What the......
Is this isolated?
Su Shu stood in the middle of the road, looking around at the familiar and unfamiliar streets, and his heart was at a loss.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Get out of the way! β
At this time, a dragon car drove from behind, and the owner yelled in annoyance, but seeing that Su Shu still didn't give way, he was so angry that he waved his whip and whipped it at him, "Little!" Are you looking for death? β
Syllable!
The whip did not fall on Su Shu's body, but was weirdly whipped in the owner's own face, and even the entire dragon car rolled to the ground inexplicably.
"Will you die if you stop the car? Lao Tzu is a magician, and no one can mess with me now. Su Shu dropped the next sentence expressionlessly, and regardless of the owner who was screaming in pain, he threw off his sleeve robe and left the scene quickly.
Feeling the awe-inspiring gazes of the passers-by around him, Su Shu felt extremely ridiculous, if he had changed to before, his heart would definitely cheer and swell even more, but now he only felt tired of it, this world is too cruel, and the law of the jungle is vividly presented, without the slightest kindness at all.
After a while, Su Shu came to the fruit stall, planning to find his uncle to inquire about magic.
"It's you againβ"
As expected, the uncle's eyes widened, and he looked quite unhappy.
"Don't worry, I'm not here to rub things." Su Shu said, throwing two gold coins at the fruit stand, "Bring me an apple, and the rest is all tips, so you don't need to look for it." β
As soon as he saw the golden coins, the uncle was not ecstatic, but frowned and threw the two gold coins at Su Shu's feet.
"Why not?" Su Shu was stunned.
"An apple is worth only two copper coins." The uncle said solemnly: "Although I don't know where your kid made a windfall, and he is so generous, but as a businessman, I must rely on my true skills to make money, not by being chared, can you understand?" Hun boy. β
"That's okay, I don't want the apple, I'll ask you about something."
Before Su Shu finished speaking, the uncle's eyes widened, and he hurriedly picked up the two gold coins on the ground, and changed his words: "Okay, okay, the skin on your kid's body is still mine, and the sword is also mine, so these two gold coins should be regarded as money to buy things." β
"False seriousness." Su Shu muttered, picked up an apple casually, took two bites, and asked, "I want to know if there is a formal place to learn magic in the royal capital?" For example, the Academy of Magic, or something like that, should there be? β
"It's really whimsical, of course there is no place like the Academy of Magic." The uncle smiled bitterly: "Do you think everyone has a talent for magic? What's more, magicians are all arrogant, if you open that kind of academy, you can't recruit both teachers and students, and it is estimated that it will go out of business on the first day of opening. β
"Well, I'm thinking too much." Su Shu also smiled bitterly, "Then if I have a talent for magic, then someone has to teach me magic, right?" β
"Isn't that easy?" The uncle said casually: "Go to those noble families, such as the famous Lord Kursius and Lord Anastasia, they have as many magical resources as they want, but only if you can be favored by them." β
"Is there no other way to go?" Su Shu was extremely reluctant to deal with those politicians, especially the camp where Xia Lan and Zhao Shengcai were located.
The uncle said angrily: "Could it be that you still want to find the blood-colored bride?" β
"The Scarlet Bride?"
"Hey, don't be so loud, it's a taboo for that princess, she's married seven husbands at a young age, and she's still a widow, do you understand?"
"It turned out to be her, why didn't I think of it." Su Shu's eyes lit up, but they quickly dimmed, although the red-clothed girl who opened her mouth and closed her mouth and claimed to be a concubine was also a prominent nobleman, but her arrogant attitude of taking away her whole belongings was still vivid, if she went to find her again, I am afraid that she would have nothing left.
"I advise you not to look for that princess." The uncle suggested: "In my opinion, Lord Kurxiu is the best choice at the moment, although she is more strict in the selection of people, she is also the easiest nobleman to communicate with. β
They all broke with Xia Lan completely, Su Shu would be cheeky to come to the door, he planned to go to Anastasia to try his luck first, after all, among the three people, only Zhao Shengcai did not pit himself much, maybe he could take this opportunity to have a good relationship with Zhao Shengcai, so as not to be really isolated.
After inquiring about Anastasia's residence from his uncle, Su Shu immediately set off and arrived at his destination in more than ten minutes.
Anastasia is not only one of the chosen kings, but also the president of the Great Chamber of Commerce, but her residence in the royal capital is surprisingly simple, not even comparable to the border mansion.
It's just the surface, Su Shu is secretly vigilant, judging from the performance in the original book, Anastasia is a rather greedy profiteer type.
"Please stop!" The guards patrolling around stopped Su Shu and asked, "This is the important place of the Hexin Chamber of Commerce, what are you here for?" β
Su Shu straightened his clothes, and said with a straight face: "My name is Su Shu, I am a friend of your Lord Zhao Zhao Shengcai, I have something very important to see him, please go in and report it, thank you." β
"What? Lord Zhao? β
I don't know why, Su Shu felt that the guard in front of him was smiling, as if he was still a little disdainful.
"Okay, I'll go in and talk." The guard pursed his lips and walked nonchalantly into the house.
After four or five minutes, the guard came out of it, waved his hand impatiently, and motioned for Su Shu to go in.
Isn't it just a gatekeeper? What kind of attitude, you......
Su Shu was in his heart, and entered the residence under the leadership of the guards, and before he reached the courtyard, he heard a loud bark, which was obviously not a dog barking, but a human bark.
What's going on?
He was full of doubts, and when he followed the shout, the whole person was instantly stunned.
I saw a sturdy man lying on the lawn and learning to bark a dog, and a purple-haired girl riding on her back, she happily kicked the big man's body and ordered the big man to bark louder.
No matter how you look at it, the purple-haired girl's words and actions are full of insults, but Dahan doesn't notice it, but is triumphant, and the more he screams, the more excited he becomes.
