Chapter 2: Dreams
Hugo suddenly opened his eyes from his sleep, covered in cold sweat, and sat up from the dogskin mattress that still had residual warmth, opened a pair of big eyes, and gasped desperately!
He had a dream!
A rickety carriage came from the horizon, on the carriage sat a rider holding the reins with both hands, he had long golden hair, a young and handsome face, and his eyes were sharp like an eagle soaring in the sky, at this time, the picture turned, and a building was burning, and two black shadows stood silently in the shadows next to the building, but before Hugo could see it clearly, the picture changed again, and what appeared in front of him was an endless turbulent wave, Hugo was standing on the deck of a large ship, the surrounding waves were surging in front of his eyes, and in front of him was a huge life that lay between heaven and earth, looking like a whaleThe picture that appeared next was a majestic and magnificent huge castle, the castle reflected a dreamlike light, just looking at it, I was deeply attracted by it, and I couldn't take my eyes off it, and the last picture that appeared was a black shadow with a cloak on his body! He was as vague as a gust of wind! He looked at Wang Xiu from a distance, and a series of continuous whispers kept wandering around Hugo, like the murmur of the devil!
And Hugo woke up in the midst of this murmur!
"What's wrong with you, young master, your face is not very good!" Brown Knight was extinguishing the embers of last night's bonfire, but at this time, he saw little Hugo sitting up nervously, his face was pale, as if he had taken the wrong medicine, so he hurriedly asked worriedly.
Hugo wiped the sweat from his face, swallowed and spit, and said in a hoarse voice: "No, it's nothing, Uncle Brown, I seem to have a dream! The situation in the dream is very strange, I have never dreamed like that!"
The Brown Knight frowned, a little like he wanted to say something.
Hugo's heart moved, and he couldn't help but say, "What's the matter, Uncle Brown, is there anything wrong?"
Knight Brown hesitated for a moment, but still said softly: "Master Hugo, that may not be an ordinary dream, it may be a picture of the future, a dream of prophecy!"
How can the dream of prophecy !!?
Brown Knight said with a solemn face: "You are the last direct bloodline of the Trelawney family, and the power in your bloodline not only gives you great potential to become a wizard, but also allows you to predict the future to a certain extent!"
Prophet! Hugo Trelawney has the potential to be a prophet!
Little Hugo looked at the Brown Knight with a confused expression, his jaw was about to fall to the surface of his feet, it seems that the original owner of this body is really amazing!
"I see!" Hugo's heart flashed with surprise, since he was sure that he had come to the Middle Ages full of magic, and his dream of becoming a powerful wizard began to grow like weeds in spring, growing madly in little Hugo's heart, since he lived in such a magnificent era, how could he be willing not to compete with those tide makers of fate?
Hugo got up from the ground, took a piece of bread from the hand of the Brown knight, stuffed it into his mouth, poured a few mouthfuls of water with the clay pot, and said loudly: "We've rested long enough, Uncle Brown, have you forgotten that there are still people chasing us?
The Brown Knight looked at the suddenly energetic imp with a shocked face, and said helplessly: "I think we have already gotten rid of those dark wizards a few days ago, but what the young master said is right, there is nothing wrong with being careful, then let's go" After speaking, the Brown Knight carefully erased the traces they left before, and then helped the little Hugo on the horse's back, and then the master and servant set out on the journey again.
"Where are we going first? Uncle Brown?"
"First head northeast, to London Wick, where there are ships heading north, and if we're lucky, we can get to Edinburgh quickly and safely, and then head north to the Scottish Highlands, where I heard Hogwarts is."
I heard that !! Hugo suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Uncle Brown ... You've been to Hogwarts, right?"
There was an awkward silenceγγγγγγ
"Well, it's a gathering place for white wizards, well, I'm a knight, so, uh... The Brown Knight's cheeks flushed a little: "That's why I haven't been to Hogwarts either"
Hugo's head is full of black lines, it turns out that we are going to measure the specific size of the Scottish Highlands with our feet!
"And what if we can't find it?"
"Young master, you are a little wizard, when you get to the place, I think you will have a way" Brown Knight's expression of 'I trust you very much' made Hugo's cheeks twitch a little.
This master and servant, while bickering through the country road, flanked by tall summer oak trees, they are like a line of soldiers, standing there quietly, giving people the deep feeling that they can devour everything, in medieval Europe, the entire continent was occupied by the absolute vast forest.
The vast forests completely cut off the city from each other, so it is very troublesome and very dangerous to travel, because in the middle of the dense forest there are dangerous beasts, serfs who can't pay taxes, soldiers who defect, terrible magical creatures, wraiths that wander and refuse to leave, and the most terrible dark wizards!
In this turbulent Dark Age, the Dark Wizards were able to rise rapidly, their demand for resources increased day by day, and even the demand for wizard apprentices increased dramatically, which created a fundamentally irreconcilable conflict with the interests of the White Wizards, and the war between the Black and White Wizards has escalated over the past hundred years, causing the war to become more and more intense, and the entire European continent has been affected.
It is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish the difference between black wizards and white wizards, as a large number of ordinary people die in the war between black and white wizards, they have a strong sense of fear and rejection of wizards, so in most cities, the operation of arresting wizards is carried out, and they attribute all the incomprehensible behaviors to the heads of wizards, and then use all kinds of strange reasons to execute those ordinary people who are captured as wizards, which leads to the further escalation of ordinary people's fear of wizards! An extremely bad cycle is formed.
According to the knowledge before little Hugo's travel, this era was full of natural disasters! It seems that God is really angry and punishes all the human beings living in this land, droughts, floods, locusts, earthquakes, and even meteorites falling from the sky, all kinds of natural disasters make the mortality rate of the population at that time present a very terrible data.
And in the face of such a difficult reality of survival, the church has no choice but to attribute it all to the wizards, who they preach that it is because the wizards are all fleas on God! In order to clean his body, God will take a bath from time to time to clean those hateful sorcerers, but it seems that the fleas on God's body are more stubborn than those on the serfs, and it has been more than a hundred years, and the sorcerers are still active in this land, and the number of times God bathes is too frequent, so that the sorcerers are not cleaned, and the deaths of ordinary people have increased significantly.
Just when Hugo was thinking nonsense and talking to the Brown Knight, there was a sudden crossroads on the road in front of them, and they would reach the avenue leading to London Wick to the east, and at this time from the west avenue, a rickety carriage came slowly and leisurely, and there was a rider on the carriage, he held the reins in both hands, and his long golden hair was very handsome, and his eyes were as sharp as eagles!
Hey?!!
This picture is a little familiar! Little Hugo's heart has already exclaimed! This is the first picture he saw in his sleep!
