With the money in hand, the panda naturally has confidence in his heart.

He did not change his appearance, but walked the streets in the image of this "strong man wizard". After shopping for a while, I found a restaurant in the downtown area with busy business and walked in.

At this moment, it is close to noon, the meal is approaching, and the restaurant is quite lively. When the panda came in, the man beckoned him to sit down at a table in the corner, and then asked him what he wanted to eat.

"I'm a foreigner, and I'm not familiar with you. Panda knew that the guy had a good eye, but he didn't have the idea of hiding it, "If you have any local specialties, or dishes that you are good at, just show me what it looks like." ”

The man looked at him twice, nodded, and asked him if he wanted to drink.

"I don't need to drink, I'm not in the habit of drinking. Panda replied.

It is true that he does not have the habit of drinking, although he sometimes does, but it is completely different from Ling Hu Chong's kind of spirit that has no energy without wine.

Speaking of which, the panda has actually quit drinking, more than once.

When he was learning martial arts, his master once said: Wine is a thing, it is better to drink less. Even if you can't quit all of them, it won't hurt to quit once in a while, for ten days and half a month.

"Why do you want to quit drinking? Isn't Second Brother Wu more powerful the more he drinks?" he asked curiously, when he was still young at the time.

"What a big face do you compare Second Brother Wu to yourself! Second Brother Wu is the reincarnation of the Demon Star, a god who can kill a tiger with his bare hands. We mortals can't compare to him!" At that time, the master said very unhappily, "When can you kill the tiger with your bare hands, it is not too late to come back to learn martial arts!"

Obviously, there is absolutely no god on the earth who can kill a tiger with his bare hands - the heavy punches of human martial artists are probably similar to the slaps that tigers usually play, and if you want to kill a tiger with this kind of fist, you have to tie the tiger up first, and then punch and kick the key point for half an hour.

At that time, the panda didn't understand this, he heard the master say that if he could kill the tiger with his bare hands, he would be able to learn the second brother of martial arts, so he enthusiastically went to practice the stele - a kind of horizontal practice qigong, because it is said that the practice to the depth can break the stele with one punch and get the name.

Later, the senior brother couldn't see it, gave him a private lesson, and talked about the insurmountable physical fitness gap between tigers and people, and he realized that he was just delusional.

Not to mention that the stele opener may not be able to break the stele if he is practiced, even if he can break the stele, it is only equivalent to the strength of a tiger to play, what is the use?

After a few more years, he learned that there was a reason why the master often advised people to quit drinking.

Many years ago, a friend of his ancestor, a master of the Yue family, was assassinated in a bathhouse because he was drunk and lost his guard.

If that master was under normal circumstances, a dozen strong men with swords might not be able to trap him. As a result, he was drunk and misbehaved, and he died in a daze.

After knowing the reason for the incident, the panda really listened to the master's teachings. Over the years, although he has not really quit drinking, he has drunk very few times, barely ...... It can be regarded as meeting the master's requirements.

The panda reminisced about the past while eating and drinking.

The guy was also interested, and the bread and meat were all delivered, and the portions were full. Coupled with the milky fish soup, this table can really be called a big fish and big meat.

And their price is also worthy of the reputation of "big fish and big meat".

At least the panda was startled when he paid for it.

He never thought that an ordinary meal, and he couldn't see anything special, would need four gold coins!

In most cities in the Western Continent world, ordinary strong men eat a lot of fish and meat, as long as they don't drink alcohol, it's nothing more than a matter of five or six silver coins. He didn't let go of eating this meal like a big stomach eating a buffet, why did he eat so much money?

Where is the hope of this "City of Hope", he can't see it for the time being, but the high prices really make people "hopeful......

The panda ate for a long time, and after paying, it was already past noon, many guests had already left, and the restaurant was no longer busy.

Since the shop was not busy, he was not in a hurry to leave, ordered another pot of tea, beckoned the man to come over, and asked if there was anything to pay attention to in this city.

Eating first and then inquiring about the news is also a common practice in the rivers and lakes.

The guy was not surprised, and saw that he was not busy, so he simply sat opposite and introduced him.

"Our city of hope is famous. As soon as he opened his mouth, he began by boasting about the city, "not only is it rich in land and abundant products, but more importantly, it is close to the mountain of Saint-France." ”

"Is there anything special about this 'Mont Saint-France'?" asked the panda curiously.

"There is nothing special about the mountains, but the people who live on the mountains are special. The man smiled mysteriously and said, "On this mountain, there lives a wizard. ”

The panda was stunned for a moment and asked, "Wizards, don't they usually hide their whereabouts from mortals? How can even you know that they live on that mountain?"

"Because they take on an apprenticeship every three years. The guy laughed, "That's why our city got its name." ”

The panda suddenly realized that the "hope" of this "City of Hope" refers to the hope of becoming a wizard.

"A few years ago, I went to try my luck. The guy added, "Unfortunately, I was eliminated in the first round." ”

"The first round?wizards recruit apprentices, how many rounds will there be to test?" Panda was slightly stunned again - according to his impression, wizards recruiting apprentices should be directly tested for qualifications.

"Of course it's going to be a lot of tests. The guy put on an insider's posture and said, "First of all, test the will, and the will is not strong enough to eliminate it directly." Intelligence and aptitude are then tested together, and both must be average, or one high and one low, before they can be selected. ”

He sighed, with a look of regret on his face: "I was timid at that time, and I flinched in the face of danger, and as a result, I didn't even have a chance for the second round of testing. If I could be given another chance, I would never back down even if I died in the test!"

"Then why don't you try it a second time?" Panda asked.

"No, we ordinary people must be under the age of fifteen to be able to take the test. I'm in my early twenties, so I'm not eligible to sign up. The man looked up at the sky with a very depressed expression, "I've ...... There is no hope. ”

"What's more, even if I can sign up again, I won't be able to pay the registration fee. He smiled wryly and said, "In the beginning, my parents saved money for five or six years in order to let me sign up. Now they are all old and need to be taken care of, and I am too old and young to save money. ”

He sighed again and said, "Perhaps...... When my child is older, I will try to save money so that he can give it a try......"

Looking at his regretful but hopeful expression, the panda didn't say anything, but secretly frowned in his heart.

The "hope" of this "City of Hope" is too heavy for ordinary people!
