Verse 20: Kneeling to receive disciples

Bernie, Baker, and Pinault were confused, and Norman, who was the person concerned, didn't know much more than them, and he didn't know what was going on now.

In his original idea, Franklin came to lecture him because he had beaten his students, but Franklin didn't do anything, just kept talking to him, and strangely, Franklin kept talking to him in old language.

To be honest, Norman has been speaking in lingua franca since he was a child, and he is not used to talking in ancient languages all of a sudden, especially at least two of the three sentences Franklin said will be mixed with ancient words that he has not learned, so he can't understand it even more, so he can only pick up what he understands to answer, as for what he doesn't understand, he can only guess, or he just shakes his head to say that he doesn't understand. Fortunately, Franklin was not annoyed when he saw that he didn't understand, and they all changed sentences one by one, so the two of them could barely talk in ancient language.

When Bernie and the others arrived at the scene, Franklin ignored them, he just pressed his hand behind his back and motioned for them not to speak, while he continued to talk to Norman in the old language. After a few more words, the strange conversation finally stopped.

Norman saw Franklin standing motionless, his eyes fixed on him, silent, as if thinking about something.

What was he thinking? Thinking about what to do with himself? Probably not, or he wouldn't have stopped the sheriffs from doing it. By the way, although Master Franklin has much more knowledge of ancient languages than him, his pronunciation is really awkward, similar to that of his students, which makes Norman a little difficult to listen to......

Norman guessed Franklin's thoughts, but he couldn't figure out what he wanted to do, so he didn't think about it at all, and set his eyes on the three boys behind Franklin, and glared at them viciously, the meaning of his eyes was very clear: Good boy, dare to deal with me?

The three innocent little brothers were not very smart, they misunderstood what Norman meant, and when they saw Normanu's glaring appearance, they thought that they should hurry up and find a way to help him, so Bernie nodded very hard, gave Norman a firm look, reassured him, and made a cheering gesture with his right hand clenched into a fist on his chest.

Norman's eyes widened all of a sudden: Good fellow, it's great to have a mage to support you, and you dare to say that you are going to beat him in front of him!

So he glared at the three boys even harder......

Norman was eye-to-eyed with Bernie when Franklin finally spoke.

"I'll ask you one last question. ”

The man with the most powerful mystical power on the scene spoke, and Norman quickly withdrew his glare at Bernie and listened attentively.

"Do you have a teacher? like Bernie, you have a teacher who teaches you an old language, do you have one?"

Franklin now spoke the lingua franca again.

"I ......"

Norman originally wanted to say "yes" and give himself a virtual teacher who was a mage, maybe he could deter this Franklin and make him dare not touch himself casually! But he immediately thought again, if Franklin continued to ask who his teacher was and where he lived, what should he do? And in those four questions not long ago, he also said that he had not learned an ancient language before, so where could a teacher suddenly appear?

There was no way, Norman had to shake his head and say, "No." ”

However, although he has no teacher, he does have a student.

Of course, there was no need to tell Franklin about this.

The answer was obviously not what Franklin expected, and he nodded, and finally asked, "Would you like to be my student?"

Norman looked at Franklin and blinked twice.

What was Franklin talking about?

If he heard him correctly, the Master was asking him if he would like to be his student?

He's not here to teach himself, he's here to take students?......

This question was obviously not what Bernie and the three of them expected.

Their expressions were far more astonished than Norman's, and their eyes were as big as brass bells: whether it was them, their friends, or even every student of the ancient language of Cárdenas, it was always the students who came to their door to ask the teachers who were mages to take them in as students and teach them about it. After all, there are so few people who have mastered ancient languages, and there are so many people who want to learn ancient languages, where have you heard of Mr. Master personally coming to his door to ask someone if they would like to be their student?

Even a baker wouldn't be like this when he pulled a person on the street and asked the other party if they wanted to learn to bake bread, let alone a noble mage!

It was a shock to them.

However, what shocked them even more was yet to come.

Norman was not overjoyed when he heard Franklin's words, but stared at Franklin with a wary face, looking like he wanted to refuse but didn't dare to speak, and after a struggle, he said, "I don't have any money." ”

As he spoke, he stared at Franklin with a thief-proof expression, and unconsciously put his hand on the small bag with Yinnar on his waist, as if he was afraid that Franklin would rush over and snatch his money from him.

Bernie stumbled to his feet and nearly fell to the ground out of thin air.

What is the boss talking about! Mr. Franklin took the initiative to accept him as a student, which should be unique in the whole of Cárdenas, a great honor, a capital to show off, and the best material to brag about to others!

But at the same time, Bernie's mind was faintly excited: even in the whole of Cárdenas, who stood in Norman's current position, and said "I have no money" in the face of Mr. Franklin's willingness to accept an apprentice? I am afraid that no one can, only Norman! Only their friend Norman can do it......

Bernie was hell-honored about it.

In the face of Norman's answer, Franklin was also stunned, obviously not expecting him to be such an answer. However, the thin little mage with triangular eyes was also well-informed, and he looked closely behind Norman, and immediately smiled again, and said, "I don't take your money, on the contrary, I will provide you with daily food." If you need it, I can even provide you with a place to live temporarily, what do you think?"

No money is charged, but food and lodging are included?......

Bernie's physical fitness is really not good, and he starts to get dizzy again.

When did the noble knowledge of the mage fall to the point where it was necessary to pay for food and lodging to let people come to learn!?

Bernie clearly remembers that when he came to Mr. Franklin's place as a student, his family paid three quintalans at once! And that was only the cost of apprenticeship, not counting the annual tuition fee of two quintalans.

Why didn't Mr. Franklin tell him back then, "No money, no food, and lodging"?

Bernie wanted to look up to the sky and sigh at the injustice of fate, but at the same time, he didn't forget to try to lock on to Norman with his dizzy eyes, wanting to see his answer.

If Norman refuses again, will Mr. Franklin get on his knees and beg him to be his student?

A ridiculous thought flashed through Bernie's mind.

Before today, he had absolutely scoffed at the idea that it would never happen, but now Mr. Franklin had even said that he did not want to pay for food and lodging......

The idea of kneeling and collecting disciples does not seem to be completely impossible.
