Chapter 127: The Spectre Mirror
Therefore, the first impression left by the ghost mirror on Wood is not very good, and even Wood will think that this ghost mirror is used to play tricks on people.
There are two sides to everything, there will be good and bad, there will be joy if there is loss, and there will be gain if there is loss. Wood will learn this in the near future.
Back in the dorm, everyone was taking a lunch break, and Wood felt that sleeping was a waste of time, so he sat down on the couch and read the book that he hadn't finished yet. Books in the library can be borrowed, but there is a time limit, and if you don't return them on time, you will be punished.
In the Bird Whispering Academy, everything seems to be peaceful and beautiful, but the rules here are very complicated, and the slightest carelessness will make you suffer the punishment you deserve. Wood was one of the unluckiest of all, because he always challenged the rules that were already written.
It's just that Wood can't calm down and read at all now, his eyes are fixed on the book, but his mind has long been unaware of where to run. Wood still had the ghost mirror in his hand, wondering why Wells would give him something so important.
Seeing that it was still early, Wood stepped out of his bedroom and walked towards a dimly lit wood, where Pekney frequented. Wood wandered through the woods, hoping he would meet Perkney today.
Just as the sun was beginning to set in the west, Wood was a little sleepy from the warm sun, when he suddenly heard a small sound, as if someone was stepping on a fallen leaf and walking towards him. Wood immediately stood up from the stone, and when he saw that it was Pekney, a small smile appeared on his face.
"Wood, why are you here?" Pekney was surprised to see Wood sitting here alone.
"I'm here for you, thinking you might be around here, so I'm waiting for you right here. Wood told the truth, Pekney in private was a completely different person from her in class. At this time, Pekney's face was carried by the setting sun with a layer of gold, which made her look a little confused, and the whole person exuded a kind of light, which made Wood a little dazzling.
"Today, your brother came to see me. Wood said with his head down, I don't know when, Wood always likes to talk with his head down in front of Pekney.
"Do you mean Wells, is he looking for you for something?" Pekney immediately realized that he seemed to be inquiring into someone else's privacy, and hurriedly changed his words:
"I don't want to know what you're talking about, I'm just wondering if there's something about him that makes you embarrassed?" Pekney knows his brother's character, and he is not looked down upon by ordinary people, and those who can impress him will not be very good.
Seeing Wood's embarrassed look, Pekney felt that his brother must have said something excessive to Wood, or did something excessive.
"No, he didn't embarrass me for anything, but he gave me something, and this is it. With that, Wood took out the mirror for Pekney to see.
"The Mirror? He gave this to you? It's incredible. Peckney looked at the mirror in Wood's hand in amazement, his eyes full of joy. Seeing Perkney's reaction, Wood relaxed and it seemed that this thing was really not a bad thing.
"You know it?" Looking at Perkney, who knows a lot about the Ghost, Wood wants Peckney to tell him more about the Ghost.
"Its name is the Spectre Mirror, and it is a rare weapon, which is said to have been made by a great magician a long time ago. It's been so long ago that the magicians who made it don't remember it. But because this ghost mirror is hard and not afraid of water and fire, it has been preserved until now. Do you know how it was discovered?" said Pekney, and his whole body became agitated, and his face was flushed with excitement.
Seeing Wood shake his head slightly, Pekney continued:
"It's Wells, he's found it from the body of a beast he's dismembered, and I don't know how long the Ghost Mirror has been hidden in the beast's body. Fortunately, Wells discovered it, otherwise such a precious thing would not have been forgotten by the people. Pekney said with emotion, talking about how Wells cleaned up the beast at the time, and Pekney still has lingering palpitations.
While it is known that Wells is passionate about exploring and subduing wild beasts, the dangers involved are unimaginable. On that occasion, Pekney was fortunate enough to witness the whole process, because he was secretly following his brother to see what he was doing. But halfway through, when Peckney wanted to go back because of his timidity, he found the beast behind him.
Pekney was still very young at the time, and he was so scared that he couldn't scream, but fortunately Wells found out in time and protected Pekney behind him.
Finally, when Wells stood in front of Perkney covered in blood and handed her the ghost mirror in his hand, Pekney was speechless. Seeing his brother so brave, it was at that time that Peckney vowed that he would be as brave as his brother in the future.
"And how did you come to know the secret of the Spectral Mirror?" Wood asked softly, as if he was worried that he would scare Peckney away.
"Later we went to a lot of libraries, and we wanted to know everything about the ghost mirror from the books, but no matter how much we searched, we couldn't find any records related to the ghost mirror. Later, also by accident, we met an old man who looked very sloppy. He saw the mirror in our hands and told us everything he knew about it.
The old man was strange, we had never seen him in the wizarding world, and I was curious how he got there. Later, we searched for many places and asked a lot of people, but people didn't have any impression of such a person. At that time, the old man only told us such a secluded secret, and he said that seclusion itself was a mystery, and there were many secluded secrets that he did not know.
This ghost mirror, my brother originally wanted to give it to me, but I think it was exchanged for his own life, and it should belong to him. I didn't expect him to give you the ghost mirror today, it seems that he still really appreciates you. Pekney was happy that Wood had gotten the Ghost Mirror, but he didn't expect Wood to be upset and apprehensive by his last words.
"I didn't know the ghost mirror was such a valuable thing, Wells just said a few words and left. If I had known that this thing had been exchanged for his life, I wouldn't have accepted it. You should pass this on to Wells, I received his kindness, but I really can't accept this thing. Wood said as he handed the mirror to Perkney, but Perkney was standing there, and he didn't mean to take it.
