Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Burning Scroll

"I'm really causing you trouble. Li Jia helped the people of the transport team load the car together and apologized to the other party again and again.

Today, the waybill and the goods do not match, and the car has been loaded and unloaded twice, and I have not found a missing box of Liushen Flower Water.

The flower water on the earth is worthless, but when you get here, it is much stronger than the local perfumes, and it is very sought after by the wealthy merchants in the surrounding area. And you can also get a "exquisite" green glass bottle when you run out, whether it is playing, flower arrangement or decoration, it is high-end and atmospheric, Chen Hansheng set a high price for them, four bottles of flower water can be sold for a gold coin, and a box of thirty bottles is definitely a valuable goods.

The loss of such valuable goods made everyone look for more than an hour, and finally the supermarket warehouse manager who went to the toilet found it in the corner of the warehouse aisle.

In the end, he did not pursue the responsibility for this matter, but Li Jia knew that he must have missed it. When he moved things, all he thought about was what gift to choose for Selinda, and he couldn't even remember how to move it. While thinking about this, he walked around a corner, but when he heard an oops, he almost collided with someone.

"It's a senior. What are you thinking about?"

Li Jiayi looked at people, but it was Ye Zi, and he said a little embarrassedly: "I have made some mistakes in my work and am reflecting on it." ”

"You must pay attention to rest, many people have been tired in the past two days, even Ji Yijun has fallen. Ye Zi saw that Li Jia's face was a little red, thinking that he was tired.

Li Jia wiped her flushed face with her hand and asked, "What's the matter with Ji Yijun?"

"It's not that I'm tired. It's digging people, it's patrolling, it's training, and the iron man can't hold it. Seeing that there was no one left and right, Ye Zi pulled out the plastic bag in his hand and showed it to Li Jia, "A hare was caught by me when it ran into the school." I'm going to take it to open a small stove for Uncle Ji, do you want to come and have a good meal?"

"Eat yourselves. A rabbit doesn't have a few pounds of meat, so I won't mix it. Li Jia smiled and shook his head, he now felt that nothing was interesting, no one was interesting, and all his thoughts seemed to be attracted by a magnet.

At this time, he suddenly noticed that Ye Zi was wearing a dress today, which was different from the lean appearance of a sportswear a few days ago, and he had a little more gentle charm, and an idea suddenly popped up in his heart.

Ye Zi looked at Li Jia as if he wanted to speak and stopped, and felt that he was a little unhappy: "Senior, do you have something to say, don't hold back, isn't it uncomfortable?"

Li Jia scratched her head and said, "Don't be weird, I just want to ask...... Do you girls have any clothes and jewelry that you don't need? I'm going to propose that the business team collect some of these things and exchange them for food. Oh, of course, not for free, but for you to be given extra food...... Well, or when we get richer, we'll compensate you. ”

"That's it, it's a stupid idea, it definitely won't work!" Ye Zi blurted out.

Li Jia was a little embarrassed.

"I'm not saying you're stupid. Ye Zi also covered his mouth and said twice, "But, why don't you understand the thoughts of girls." There are no shopping malls and online shopping, and everyone's clothes will only get fewer and fewer, who is willing to give up so many sets of clothes? Not to mention jewelry, it's all thoughts. ”

Li Jia was secretly ashamed in his heart, he wanted to fake public welfare for the first time, but he failed so shamefully, he hurriedly said: "When I didn't say it, when I didn't say it." ”

"But...... It's not impossible to sell clothes. Ye Zi's eyes turned and said, "Actually, there are new clothes in the school, isn't there a grocery street behind the library? There are many small shops in the simple houses over there, selling everything, where we used to go." When you cross, those small shops basically collapsed, you go and dig it. ”

"There...... Didn't crush anyone, did you?"

"No, it's summer vacation, and the store is locked, but the goods are definitely there. ”

After Li Jia got the news of Ye Zi, she couldn't live a good life. People can't itch anywhere compared to their hearts, and they can't scratch it.

He wanted to wait until the evening to go to the grocery market, but once the restlessness in his heart started, he couldn't stop. He was in the office of the business group, coming and going, pouring water for a while, going to the toilet for a while, and Jiang Jie, the accountant who was sitting on the shift together, was annoyed, "Li Jia, can you stop it? My ass is on fire? I can't even settle my accounts." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I remembered! There's a batch of goods that need to be ordered, I'll go to the supermarket. As he spoke, he picked up a shovel in the corner of the house and was about to go out, and each group had to participate in the work of cleaning up the campus after work, and there were a lot of tools.

"What are you doing with a shovel when you go to the supermarket?" Jiang Jiehu wondered.

"Uh...... Someone asked us to borrow ...... Hey, take care of your accounts. Li Jia said.

—————————————————————————

The grocery market, which was originally near the edge of the school, has now collapsed into rubble, and no one has come. Li Jia walked around the grocery street three times, and found that no one had bumped into him, so he secretly dug it up.

Li Jia has never done much rough work, and his strength is not great, although the desire in his heart has doubled his combat effectiveness, but he still can't get up fast after all, not to mention that while he is working, he has to pay attention to the movements around him.

After digging for nearly half an hour, Li Jia found the corner of a piece of clothing, which was wrapped in a plastic bag, and it was probably not damaged. Li Jia carefully removed the surrounding gravel and found that it was a men's shirt. Somewhat frustrated, he threw his clothes on the ground and changed positions to continue digging.

I didn't dig a few times, and the sound of people came not far away. Li Jia hurriedly shortened and looked around for cover. Fortunately, the stones here are high and low, Li Jia found a sunken place, squatted on the ground, and secretly looked over there.

I saw a girl carrying a thermos pot, standing on a very hidden crossing in front of her, as if waiting for someone. Li Jia was anxious and anxious, but there was nothing she could do but pray that the people she was waiting for would come and leave quickly. About five minutes later, someone came, and Li Jia saw that it was Ji Yijun?

Ji Yijun did look sick, but as soon as he appeared, the girl greeted him, and seemed to be babbling to Ji Yijun about these things, and then stuffed the food into Ji Yijun's hand, Ji Yijun didn't shirk, took the thermos pot, talked to the girl, and didn't get close, and waved back after a while, but the girl kept watching him walk out of the field of vision before turning around and leaving.

This kid is a good fate, he caught up with a girl so quickly, Li Jia was a little envious of him. However, this envy soon rose to the level of jealousy, because in the next hour, two more girls came to Ji Yijun, and each gave him something to eat and drink.

Li Jia felt like he was going crazy, this kid was indeed very handsome and good at kung fu, and he also heard that girls often went to watch him train. But can the girls stop being such moths to the fire? You didn't realize that he didn't take you seriously at all! Thinking of Ye Zi also taking the rabbit to see the kid, Li Jia really didn't feel good in his heart.

Li Jia let out a long sigh, thinking that he still had Selinda, his heart finally calmed down, and he vented his jealousy on the stones under the shovel.

Li Jia dug for another hour, dug out several pieces of clothing one after another, and finally found a very good-looking dress, he took it in his hand and looked at it over and over, imagining that Selinda would look like him in it, and he felt that the fatigue in his body was gone.

I'd love to give it to her now......

————————————————————————

"Miss. I still suggest you trick that guy named Li Jia out and we'll kidnap him. We can do it again. Pinto stood on the hill, through the woods beneath his feet, and in front of him was the school.

"I don't need you to teach me the plan I gave up. He...... How many mages can he know about a mage's secrets, and besides, he is a mage's relative after all, and we shouldn't take such a risk. Haven't you heard that saying? Clever lions never scare away their prey. Selinda's face was not good-looking, and she glanced at Pinto, only to think that the old thing was getting more and more annoying.

But is he really an ordinary person? Selinda grew up among knights, and later went to study in the Magic Tower, and met many powerful knights and magicians, but never met anyone as knowledgeable as him. A flower, a tree, a shower of rain, a ray of light, he can tell so many truths. Behind him, there was a new world she had never seen before.

She remembered Li Jia's attitude towards herself in the past few days - warm and shy, stupid and gentle, which made her feel like soaking in a hot spring in Burgos, with a warm feeling. Especially that day...... Although her strength was extremely weak, her desperate appearance made her feel a strange emotion in her heart. She was secretly alert to her attitude, and several times wanted to leave quietly, but there always seemed to be more things in him waiting for her to discover.

"The nobles have the secrets of the nobles, and the subordinates have the news of the subordinates. Since you're here, you shouldn't go back empty-handed. Pinto still didn't give up.

"Even I know a lot about these people, how could the young lady come for nothing?" said the maid Nina, with a gritty hug.

"These people are dangerous. There's nothing wrong with getting to know them a little better. ”

"I've been in and out several times, and no one else has even noticed me. I can easily kill anyone, as long as I don't encounter a real magician. Selinda came to her senses.

"It's really dangerous. Pinto re-emphasized, "I don't have your skills, but I have observed them in my own way. Know that power is sometimes not embodied by the sword. They are very organized and able to do very complex things in a very organized way. The people of the Order are inferior to them. The people of God are not as good as the people of God. ”

"So what?"

"This power is used in disaster relief, allowing them to save their comrades in three days. Used in business, they can hook up with that group of untouchables in one day. What if it is used militarily? Do you think the militia in our territory will be their opponents?"

"Do you have to meet each other?"

"Something makes you get lost. My miss. Pinto said solemnly, "Your father has not woken up until we have not yet decided on the final attitude. But vigilance is essential, and my men have inquired about it, and they have ranged magic weapons, as well as enchanted flaming swords, neither of which is easy to deal with. They even use the magic script for mages as their everyday language, how many magicians and magic apprentices are hidden among those seemingly ordinary people? How do you know that they will not wage war against your father with these powers? You must have heard the old saying: there is no war that should not be there if there is not enough profit. ”

Selinda didn't answer and couldn't answer, as the lord's daughter, she knew from a young age that there were things that had nothing to do with personal likes and dislikes.

She silently looked at the spire of the school building, and after a while said, "I will try to learn as much as I can about them, their strength, and their attitude, but don't talk to me about the kidnapping again." ”

"You have been brilliant since you were a child, and the Count has always given you the greatest freedom. Hope you're right. Pinto didn't insist any longer, but took out a scroll from his bosom, "Please take this Flame Scroll, and if there is any danger, please use it, don't hesitate." ”

"You want to mess with them?" said Selinda, who turned her head to look directly at Pinto, who lowered her head and held the scroll out of her hands. After a moment's hesitation, she finally took the scroll in her hand.

"Just be prepared. Your father, Lord Merlot, said, "Those who are stronger than me are my enemies." Pinto looked up and smiled.
